Beef Recall: Food Lion
Superfund Site….Continued.
I now have the documentation from the School Board that outlines the testing they did on the Holly Shelter Middle School land. My oh my…its a real page turner! About 115 pages. I will try to read through this as soon as I can and then I’m going to send it off to a soil [...]
Superfund Site
A “superfund site” is a hazardous waste site that has been placed on the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s (E.P.A.) National Priority List (NPL). This is done based on a scoring process that rates a site’s current or potential health impact. The “Superfund” was created by the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liabilities Act of 1980 to clean up abandoned [...]
Hurricane: Where do the sexual predators go?
Hurricane shelters are provided to the public for emergency shelter. “The public”…that means the good, the bad…all of us.
Well…not everywhere in America.
In Florida, the state banned sexual predators and offenders from shelters four years ago (with the exception of those on supervised parole). Instead, they can bunk up at one of the local prisons. Polk [...]
“Pets” vs. Animals…Python Kills 2-Year Old Girl
This discussion comes from Al Tompkin’s inspiration …and a little bit from my live shot yesterday.
If you were watching at 5:20 and 6:10 you saw me, with a corn snake wrapped around my neck. That snake was one of over 100 that snake guru Keith Farmer owns. Last night he was showing off about 25 [...]

Need Your Input: Medical Insurance Headaches
I never check my mail unless I know that Netflix has sent me something…but yesterday I was less than thrilled to find a letter from Blue Cross Blue Shield in my mailbox along with “The Gladiator.”
I spent a good amount of time in the Emergency Room last week. The second my body felt better…a new [...]
ATT: Patients of Dr. Sara Lynn Christiansen
Got a call today that Dr. Christiansen has gone M.I.A. after “voluntarily” giving up her license. She’s under investigation for something or other…not much info.
Anyway, her patients can’t access their records and since Doc can’t be found…I know some folks are feeling rather desperate right now.
Here’s what to do:
Christiansen handed over the documents to Bruce Rains. [...]
Swine Flu vs. Seasonal Flu
Swine flu has certainly hit a media fever pitch. ALL over the web. ALL over the network news. ALL over the newspapers.
Who DOESN’T get a sick feeling in their stomach (no pun intended) upon hearing that something that’s killing people in Mexico…is now popping up across the U.S.?
By the very nature of our on-the-go society, [...]
“Green” Things That Are A Waste Of YOUR Green
Happy Earth Day.
Today we all pledge to turn off the lights, put that can in the recycling and use less paper…in hopes that it makes up for the other 354 days in the year that we blasted the air conditioner, used quadruple-ply toilet paper and left the car chugging in idle….
Not to say that Earth [...]
