good for what ails ya. (quick chicken noodle soup)
If you follow me on Twitter, you know that I'm sick. Yesterday, I asked everyone about their favorite home remedies for cold and flu symptoms.
I thought is was only fair that I shared mine as well.
Now, a bit of prefacing. I'm, of course, not a medical professional, nor do I even really think any of the items I'm about to show you have any sort of scientific impact on a cold or flu. That being said, these are the things that make me feel better, and isn't that half the battle anyway?
A pretty standard one to start off with. It helps that those irresistible wooden crates of clementine cuties are in season and on sale every where you look right around the same time that cold and flu season gets in full-swing. Of course, Vitamin C is a pretty accepted way of boosting your immune system, but also, these little guys are great for an unsettled stomach that may not want to take in something heavy. A little blood sugar and Vitamin C boost all wrapped in an easy-to-peel wrapper. Plus, they are sweet and delicious!
Anything smooth, creamy and cold is a great idea for a scratchy, itchy, and sore throat. Plus, you can pack in a nice nutrient punch in a small smoothie package. My favorite cold-busting smoothie for two (Babyface is in prevention mode):
1 cup vanilla almond milk
2 large handfuls spinach
2 tablespoons flax
2 tablespoons chia seed
1 banana
1/2 cup pineapple
2 clementines
Smoothies are also a great one for sick kids, too. Use blueberries and strawberries, and bananas for a fun "purple slurple" smoothie. Add a silly straw and you are good to go. It'll feel good on their scratchy throat, plus get them a nice dose of calories and nutrients in a small, fun package.
As you can see by my assorted collection, I'm a big believer in medicinal teas. The simple act of drink a hot liquid helps to sooth your throat and annihilate any germs that live in your throat and nose. Combine that with powerful herbs and you've got a cold-killing powerhouse on a string. My favorites are Traditional Medicinals Cold Care P.M. (puts me right to sleep, no Nyquil in this house!) and Yogi Echinancea Immune Support (unpictured because I ran out).
There have long been studies saying that sugar depresses your immune system, but more and more studies are coming out saying that a little sugar doesn't hurt (the real problem comes when your body is unhealthy and your immune system is compromised). So I'd say put a little honey in that tea (I do!) and enjoy how it feels and tastes.
You are probably thinking this is totally random, but sherbet is a comfort food of mine! My Mama always bought me sherbet when I was sick growing up. The cold felt great on my throat, the flavor was powerful enough for me to still taste it when I was stuffed up, and there wasn't enough dairy to make my body produce more mucus (gross, right?). Plus, now as an adult, it just makes me feel better. And happy people recover from colds faster. Or at least I think so.
You know me. We've been doing this for a while. So you know that I almost never drink soft drinks (with the except of a rare Mountain Dew). That being said, soft drinks are some of my most favorite things, in moderation, when I am congested. The cold, fizzy bubbles feel so good on the throat and nose and almost immediately help me feel better. Of course, you want to keep hydrated with other liquids while you are sick, but try a soft-drink next time. Ginger Ale is my favorite!
Chicken Noodle Soup
You knew this was coming, right?
A perfect combo of protein, carbs and fat. Veggies, meat and fiber all in one bowl. Plus a hefty dose of hot broth to kill any lingering germs stuck in your nasal cavity. There is a reason chicken noodle soup is the stuff of flu legend.
The can is fine, but homemade is better.
But who wants to spend hours in the kitchen while they are coughing, aching and fevering? I certainly didn't.
So I bring you Quick-en Noodle Soup, ready in 20 minutes flat. So you can get back to your trashy TV and comfy bed (because that's really the only good part about being sick).
Quick-en Noodle Soup
1 tbsp. butter
1/2 c. celery, diced
1/2 c. onion, diced
1/2 c. carrots, diced
1 clove garlic, minced
4 c. chicken broth
1 1/2 c. water
1 1/2 c. shredded chicken meat
1 1/2 c. whole wheat pasta, dry
1 bay leaf
1/2 tsp. sage
1/2 tsp. rosemary
1/2 tsp thyme
Salt and pepper
Melt butter over medium-low heat in a large saucepan. Add celery, onions carrots and garlic and saute until just softened, about 5 minutes. Add chicken broth and water. Bring to a boil. Add remaining ingredients and simmer until pasta is cooked and all veggies are soft, about 15 minutes. Remove bay leaf before serving.
Makes 4 2-cup servings.
Quick and easy ways to get the "1 1/2 cups shredded chicken meat":
- boil chicken breasts or chicken thighs until cooked through, shred (this is what I did)
- buy a rotisserie chicken at the grocery store, remove meat from bones and skin, shred
- buy canned chicken (good canned chicken, please)
Hope your three-day weekend has gone better than mine. Hey, at least my fever is gone, that's something to cheer about!

Being sick sucks! Well… except for that trashy tv/warm bed/fuzzy pajamas part
I love to make fresh ginger tea by boiling a chunk of ginger, plus a cored, quartered apple in 4-6 cups of water. Then strain the tea and add truvia or honey or some other sweetener. It always feels so warming and soothing.
Hope you feel better real soon! With all those yummy cures, I know you will!
OooH! Ginger tea, I must try this!
Yay! I hope you like it! I actually got the idea from a beautiful cookbook called "Drink To Your Health", by Anne Mcintyre ( http://www.amazon.com/Drink-Your-Health-Delicious-Smoothies/dp/B000C4SVMI/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1295412443&sr=8-1 ) . Each page is a full color photo, and it's full of recipes for natural healing drinks/smoothies/teas, and information on each ingredient and how it helps the body. Her ginger tea recipe (on pg 141) is as follows:
French Apple and Cinnamon Tea
4 apples, washed and sliced
2 1/2 cups water
2 tblsp honey
1 tsp ground cinnamon
Place the apples in a pan, add the water, cover, and cook over low heat until soft. Strain and stir in the honey and cinnamon. Serve hot.
Please let me know if you try the recipe – you inspire my food choices and recipes on a daily basis, so I would feel so honored and wonderful if I could help inspire you too. I'm also sending "get better" vibes your way! I hope they help!
Mmm! That looks delicious. When the roads finally get cleared, I might have to run out and get some apples!
Doh! I just realized I typed up the wrong recipe (no ginger!). I also realized that when I made the tea I actually combined the apple tea recipe with the "Malaysian Ginger and Lemon Tea" recipe (on pg 63):
1 ounce fresh gingerroot, peeled and sliced (I am lazy and therefore didn't peel it, I just washed it really well)
2 1/2 cups water
squeeze of lemon juice
honey, to taste
Place the gingerroot in a pan with the water (here's where I modified the recipe by adding the apples). Bring to a boil, cover, lower the heat, and simmer for 20 minutes (the apples might've gotten really soft before 20 minutes, so I scooped them out). Add the lemon juice and sweeten with honey to taste. Drink hot.
Hope you feel better soon. I drink tea with honey and have extra fruits when I'm feeling sick.
I love your food ideas for a sick day. That smoothie sounds great!
The smoothie is amazing. I feel so much better after having them just a few times.
TV is my comfort food. As is chicken soup. I get sick about once a year and watching Friends re-runs and Grey's Anatomy always makes me feel better.
TV is totally my comfort food, too.
Hope you are feeling better! I woke up this morning feeling as if I swallowed an alligator whole. My throat was so scratchy and on fire! I have been drinking water like mad, eating oranges like they are going out of style and found some Throat Coat tea that has done the trick
I have the toddler down for a nap, and I'm cuddled up on the couch with my DVR, the laptop and waiting until the kids get home from school.
Aww, I hope you feel better soon! Enjoy your DVR.
Hope your feeling better. I check in every day to see if you have blogged! I am loving your creativity and spunk. Keep it up!
-Emily in CT
Thanks, Emily! I'm getting there. Still not 100%.
I know this is quite late – and possibly a repost to you- I apologize on both accounts. Soup is always a good thing but what I do that works for me is take a HOT bath in epsom salts (2cps), baking soda(1cup), add some drops of eucalyptus and tea tree oil AND ginger. some people take the ginger and make a little bag and run the hot water through it. Me, I am too lazy for that and just add it to the water, though it can look a little funny. Soak in the bath for at least 20 minutes. I personally would do this more than once during the cold. This can relax you and make you very very sleepy….
Two other items that I have in my arsenal are oregano oil gel caplets. First sign of a sour throat I will bite down on two of these and swallow. This will generally kick that sore throat to the curb. Be forewarned though that the oregano oil can be quite warm, especially if you are not used to it.
The second item is zinc/elderberry lozenges. I swear by these babies. My mom took these at the first sign of her last cold and barely had the sniffles.
As you stated in your blog I am not a health professional but tell others what works for me. Research and see if it will work for you!

"Do you think I will grow into a freak?" plaintively asks Frankie Addams (Anna Paquin). She's a 12-year-old girl in an affluent Georgia household in 1944, haunted by the sight of an androgyne in a carnival sideshow. Ungracefully straddled between childhood and maturity, Frankie has close-cropped
hair, scabbed elbows, a boyish figure, and a restless intellect. All this makes Frankie an outcast from other, prettier girls her age, and she ...
In the last days leading up to her older brother's marriage, a young girl is forced to face realities and grow up quickly. A tender adaptation of Carson McCullers' classic play.

Tips for Fostering Safe Teen Drivers
Firm rules, parental example and lots of practice are 'key' to helping kids be mindful on the road
It won't be long before you take off your chauffeur hat and move over to the passenger seat. Michigan's Graduated Driver License program allows teens at age 14 years and 8 months to start the first segment of driver education.
As students progress through the licensing system – aiming for a no-restrictions Level 3 license at age 17 – they will have taken at least 30 hours of classroom instruction, spent six hours behind-the-wheel, passed a driving skills test and chalked up a minimum 50 hours of supervised driving.
Benefits of an earlier start
"The plus side of allowing kids to take drivers' ed. at an earlier age is that they can practice for a longer amount of time with their parents. The more instruction, the better," says Larry Aceto, owner of Premier Driving Academy, with locations in Macomb and Wayne counties.
"I also do the driving test," he says. "Sometimes parents will call me and ask, 'Are we going on the expressway? We haven't done much of that.' Well, then they're not ready for a road test."
Aceto, a retired public school teacher, says students spend two hours practicing driving exercises at his state-certified driving ranges before heading out on the road.
"I tell parents they can come to the range and watch if they'd like. I would even put them in the car. I get very few," he says.
Getting to Level 2
Once your teen has earned a Level 1 license and can drive with a licensed parent or designated licensed adult, age 21 or older, it's time to start a log of her supervised driving. Even if she wants to put the top down and hit the highway, it's best to start slowly – in an empty parking lot, for example – and then gradually add more challenging situations: city street traffic, freeway rush hour, driving at night and in inclement weather.
Have your teen practice the exercises she learned in drivers' ed. and those in the Driving Skills Test Study Guide, found at Michigan Secretary of State branches (or download the PDF). Another good resource is the Novice Driver's Road Map, a series of eight practice drives, plus helpful tips for adult driving coaches offered by the Network of Employers for Traffic Safety.
As you monitor your teen's driving, you'll recognize the skills that are most difficult for him, and experience firsthand the maneuvers that place him at risk – typically, driving too fast. Reinforce safe driving techniques and teach your teen to be prepared for the unexpected.
Avoiding distractions
Motor vehicle accidents are the leading cause of death for American teens. And the risk of a car crash is highest for 16-year-olds – not surprisingly, the minimum age at which they can acquire a Level 2 intermediate license, and drive on their own with limited restrictions. Aceto is amazed at the number of parents who give their teens a car as a 16th birthday gift, likely reducing the time they'll spend supervising their young driver.
"If you've ever been in a high school parking lot when kids are coming and going, it's a zoo," he says. "There are too many distractions – cell phones, more than one kid in a car. Teens need more restrictions."
Retired Canton Police Officer Leonard Schemanske agrees that distractions are a risk for drivers; especially inexperienced teens. Schemanske, who owns Advanced Driving Academy of Wayne County, says he and each of his driving coaches knows first-hand the perils on the road.
"I've 'mopped up' thousands of crashes over the years. How many are distraction based? More than you think," he says. "For every kid in a car, the risk of being in a crash multiples."
Sign a pact
Schemanske recommends filling out a "Parent-Teen Safe Driving Contract" (download the PDF) to establish rules – from seatbelt use, alcohol consumption and obeying traffic laws to a parent's responsibility as coach. Are parents being good role models in their own driving behavior?
"The answer is, simply, 'no,'" Schemanske says. "We're on the cell phone. People eat breakfast as they drive to work. For 14 years, if not longer, who has that teen been sitting next to? They've learned quite a bit from you."
To counteract that bad example and put your teen on the road to responsible driving, set aside plenty of coaching time so your teen can develop the skills and experience needed to be a safe and defensive driver.
Teens should be responsible in driving a vehicle. You can read here:: NHTSA guidelines to curb dashboard electronics Thurs the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration asked car makers to find ways to safeguard its high-tech dashboard gadgets -- such as web browsers, texting, social media and navigation interfaces -- from use by drivers while a vehicle is moving. The recommendation comes as part of the agency's three-phase strike on driver distraction.

Nooo: Next Xbox might require 'always-on' Internet connection
Connecting your Xbox 360 to the Internet has always been an optional feature for gamers. A new rumor report claims that the next Xbox will require you to always be connected to the Internet — an attempt that would greatly clamp down on piracy.
Microsoft's flat out denial that it's going to show off any new Xbox successor at E3 might have put a damp on the rumor mill, but VG247 says it's learned some new info.
Most jarring in VG247's report is that the games will be required to always be connected to the Internet. We've detailed our thoughts on enforcing always online DRM before (Spoiler: we hate it).
In layman's terms, it's great for gamer publishers, but will be terrible for gamers. With an always-on connection, publishers will be able to sniff out who's playing pirated copies of its games.
For gamers, it means even if you want to play single-player games, you'll need to be online. If you don't have Internet or don't like having any online existence for your gaming experience, you might be SOL, as your games won't be able to load up without first pinging the game's servers.
Now, we don't know the extent to which Microsoft plans to implement this feature (we doubt they'll force everybody into a subscription for Xbox Live Gold), but it fits well with what we've been hearing about the company including some kind of "anti-used games" feature.
It could also be possible that Microsoft is planning a console-wide "online pass" system that'll effectively reduce the amount of used game sales, while at the same time increasing revenue for multiplayer pass codes.
VG247's report also states the next Xbox will reportedly come with a Blu-ray drive (something Kotaku first reported, but MCV later suggested could be wrong).
It's also "confirmed" that the console will sport two GPUs and the CPU (rumored to be by AMD) will have "four to six cores," with one specifically reserved for Kinect, which will be built into the system.
According to one of its sources, "It's like two PCs taped together."
We're not sure what to make about the new rumors. We get that Microsoft's been a huge backer facilitating the importance of having a robust online network for the Xbox platform with Xbox Live, but this kind of back-stabbing DRM is only going to alienate gamers.

How many hours should lapse between my first dose of the day and my second dose?
- Q: How many hours should lapse between my first dose of the day and my second dose?
- A: You did not mention the name of the medication you are taking, but in general, if a medication is prescribed twice daily, dividing the 24-hour day in two is going to give the most constant level in the body. Therefore, every 12 hours is the best way to take your medication in general. Some medications require food in the stomach before they are taken. If you are on a medication that requires food, it would be best to take it after breakfast and after dinner. The closer you can get to eating 12 hours apart, the better. You should consult your doctor to find the best way to take your medication. For more information on medications, please visit our Web site at http://www.everydayhealth.com/drugs/.

double-dipSyllabification: dou·ble-dip
Pronunciation: /ˌdəb(ə)lˈdip /
Definition of double-dip in English:
Denoting or relating to a recession during which a period of economic decline is followed by a brief period of growth, followed by a further period of decline: higher food and energy prices could increase the risk of a double-dip recession
More example sentences

About the conductor
Herbert Blomstedt
Born in the U.S. to Swedish parents, HERBERT BLOMSTEDT began his musical education at the Royal Academy of Music in Stockholm and at the University of Uppsala. He later studied conducting at the Juilliard School in New York, contemporary music in Darmstadt, and Renaissance and Baroque music at the Schola Cantorum Basiliensis. He worked with Igor Markevitch in Salzburg and Leonard Bernstein in Tanglewood.
In February 1954 Herbert Blomstedt made his debut as conductor with the Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra. He has served as chief conductor of the Oslo Philharmonic and the Swedish and Danish Radio Orchestras. From 1975 to 1985 he was chief conductor of the Staatskapelle Dresden and toured over 20 European countries, the U.S., and Japan. He continues his collaboration with this orchestra and was awarded their Golden Badge of Honor in 2007.
As guest conductor, Blomstedt has performed with orchestras such as the Berlin Philharmonic, the BR Radio Symphony, the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra, the London Philharmonic, the Boston Symphony, the Philadelphia Orchestra, the Chicago Symphony, the Cleveland Orchestra, the New York Philharmonic, the Los Angeles Philharmonic, the Orchestre symphonique de Montréal, the Orchestre de Paris, the Israel Philharmonic, and the NHK Symphony, of which he is Honorary Conductor.
Herbert Blomstedt is Conductor Laureate of the San Francisco Symphony, where he served as Music Director from 1985 to 1995. Throughout his tenure he and the Symphony repeatedly appeared to critical acclaim at major European concert venues and festivals including Edinburgh, Salzburg, Munich, and Lucerne. From 1996 to 1998, Blomstedt was Music Director of the NDR Symphony Orchestra in Hamburg. In 1998 he assumed his position as Music Director of the Gewandhausorchester in Leipzig, a post that he held until 2005. As Honorary Conductor of this orchestra, he returns to Leipzig regularly. In 2006, three more orchestras awarded him the title of Honorary Conductor: the Danish and Swedish Radio Symphony as well as the Bamberg Symphony Orchestra, which he has been conducting since 1982. In addition, he continues guest conducting the world's most pre-eminent orchestras.
His extensive discography includes over 130 works with the Dresden Staatskapelle, amongst them all symphonies of Beethoven and Schubert, as well as the complete orchestral works of Carl Nielsen with the Danish Radio Symphony. With the San Francisco Symphony Orchestra he recorded exclusively for Decca; several of the numerous recordings received major awards; the complete cycles of the symphonies of Jean Sibelius and Carl Nielsen enjoy reference standard.
Several labels have documented his collaboration with the Leipzig Gewandhausorchester. For Decca, he recorded Brahms' Symphony No. 4, Bruckner's Symphony No. 9, Hindemith's "Sinfonia serena" and "Die Harmonie der Welt," piano concertos of Mendelssohn, and works by Richard Strauss. Releases also include Sandström's "High Mass" for Deutsche Grammophon and Mendelssohn's "Elijah" for RCA Red Seal. The German label Querstand released a box of live concert recordings covering the Leipzig period from 1998 to 2005; their recording of the complete Bruckner symphonies is being continued. Symphonies Nos. 6, 7, and 8 have already been released to great critical acclaim; Symphony No. 5 was released at the beginning of the season 2010/2011.
Herbert Blomstedt, who celebrates his 85th birthday in July 2012, has received several Honorary Doctorates and is an elected member of the Royal Swedish Music Academy and he was awarded the "Großes Bundesverdienstkreuz" by the German Federal President Johannes Rau.

I love this thing! I own a very large coffee travel mug and this size is perfect for that large mug.......to take me to and through my first hours of work/or it fills two large java mugs at home. French press is the way to go. I also own a coffee grinder and it has the ability to go from a very course grind (perfect for this press) or to an espresso grind.....for my cappuccino and auto drip machine. With the coarse ground I have NO grinds from this French press and I've been using it everyday since receiving it. I'm frugal, but I use the nation's number one tested whole bean for home: Eight O'clock coffee (according to Yahoo's survey) and just love the quality of my Cup of Joe. It's unbeatable in any coffee house in my opinion! My appliances: the grinder, auto-drip pot, and French press all sit on their own little tray on my kitchen counter and I must say... this French press totally classes up the place! The stainless steel compliments my kitchen nicely. And my coffee reminds me of the islands.... Jamaica, Hawaii, Bahamas........silky, rich, and very dark.
I was concerned the quality would be just so so . When I received the product I was excited to see the quality was VERY high end. The metal was durable and very well made. It makes about 3 full cups�. The screen is very well made so coffee grounds do not filter through when pressing the batch Strongly recommend this product
bought this as a surprise for my husband, the coffee lover...he was so happy when he opened the gift, but more happy when he tasted the coffee...He has showed this off to several friends who have all enjoyed an excellent cup of coffee
This is just a great way to have a couple of cups of coffee without having to use the large coffee maker!
Excellent value on this French Press. Much better price than most others, works great. I had to get this to brew my Jamaica Blue Mountain coffee. These are the best for making coffee.
I just got a smart energy meter and realized my Mr Coffee was using tons of electricity. This makes wonderful coffee (I heat the water in a few minutes in the microwave first, so still using a little energy!) and it stays warm a long time. I love it.
This, broke after two years of use. It's a bit flimsy and unfortunately I have to buy new one
In 7 months the handle broke off and the whole coffee maker fell apart!
Very nice product. My husband wanted one that was stainless and glass only and no plastic. This one is very well made and and the only plastic on this product is on the inside of the lid, but no where that the boiling water touches. It makes a great cup of coffee and he and my son both are enjoying their cups of Joe very much!
Needed a new French Drip coffee maker and made my choice of this particular one based on the reviews which were mainly �xcellant. Actually I was quite disappointed after my first use. The coffee maker does the job but the coffee was no better or worse than any other French Drip coffee maker I've used. But the reason why I only gave it an Average rating is because the lid with attached mechanism does not fit tightly (as it should) on to the glass vessal. This means one must be very, very careful when actually pouring or you'll end up with your freshly brewed French Drip coffee all over your kitchen counter.

Listeria monocytogenes Risk Assessment: Executive Summary
FDA/Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition
USDA/Food Safety and Inspection Service
September 2003
The U.S. Department of Health and Human Service, Food and Drug Administration's Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition (DHHS/FDA/CFSAN) conducted this risk assessment in collaboration with the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food Safety and Inspection Service (USDA/FSIS) and in consultation with the DHHS Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The purpose of the assessment is to examine systematically the available scientific data and information to estimate the relative risks of serious illness and death associated with consumption of different types of ready-to-eat (RTE) foods that may be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes. This examination of the current science and the models developed from it are among the tools that food safety regulatory agencies will consider when evaluating the effectiveness of current and future policies, programs, and regulatory practices to minimize the public health impact of this pathogen.
The Healthy People 2010 goals for national health promotion and disease prevention called on federal food safety agencies to reduce foodborne listeriosis by 50% by the end of the year 2005. Preliminary FoodNet data on the incidence of foodborne illnesses for the United States in 2001 indicated that the incidence of infection from Listeria monocytogenes decreased between 1996 and 2001 from 0.5 to 0.3 cases per 100,000 people per year. The level then reached a plateau. In order to reduce further the incidence to a level of 0.25 cases per 100,000 people by the end of 2005, it became evident that additional targeted measures were needed. The Listeria monocytogenes risk assessment was initiated as an evaluation tool in support of this goal.
Listeria monocytogenes is a bacterium that occurs widely in both agricultural (soil, plants and water) and food processing environments. Ingestion of Listeria monocytogenes can cause listeriosis, which can be a life-threatening human illness. In 2000, the CDC reported that of all the foodborne pathogens tracked by CDC, Listeria monocytogenes had the second highest case fatality rate (21%) and the highest hospitalization rate (90.5%). Serious illness almost always occurs in people considered to be at higher risk, such as the elderly and those who have a pre-existing illness that reduces the effectiveness of their immune system. Perinatal listeriosis results from foodborne exposure of the pregnant mother leading to in utero exposure of the fetus, resulting in fetal infection that leads to fetal death, premature birth, or neonatal illness and death. Listeria monocytogenes also causes listerial gastroenteritis, a syndrome typically associated with mild gastrointestinal symptoms in healthy individuals. This risk assessment focuses on the severe public health consequences.
Scope and General Approach
This risk assessment provides analyses and models that (1) estimate the potential level of exposure of three age-based population groups and the total United States population to Listeria monocytogenes contaminated foods for 23 food categories and (2) relate this exposure to public health consequences. The food categories consist of foods with a documented history of Listeria monocytogenes contamination. The models provide a means of predicting the likelihood that severe illness or death will result from consuming foods contaminated with this pathogen. These predictions are interpreted and used to estimate the relative risks among the food categories. The foods considered in this risk assessment are ready-to-eat foods that are eaten without being cooked or reheated just prior to consumption. One food, frankfurters, may or may not be reheated prior to consumption and was considered as two separate food categories. The working assumption is that all the cases of listeriosis are attributed to the foods in 23 categories, so that the risk assessment could be 'anchored' to the United States public health statistics. However, it is recognized that additional foods or cross-contamination from raw foods before cooking to other RTE foods may also contribute to additional cases.
The published scientific literature, government food intake surveys, health statistics, epidemiological information, unpublished food product surveys acquired from state and federal public health officials and trade associations, and surveys specifically designed to augment the data available for the risk assessment are the primary sources of data used in this document. Expert advice on scientific assumptions was actively sought from leading scientists from academia, industry, and government. This included two formal reviews of the underlying model structure and assumptions by the United States National Advisory Committee on Microbiological Criteria for Foods. In addition, the risk assessment was initially published in draft form and public comments sought for six months.
While the risk assessment purposely did not look into the pathways for the manufacture of individual foods, the risk assessment model developed can be used to estimate the likely impact of control strategies by changing one or more input parameters and measuring the change in the model outputs. This process, referred to as conducting 'what-if' scenarios, can be used to explore how the components of a complex model interact. Several 'what-if' scenarios are detailed within the risk assessment to evaluate the impact of refrigerator temperature, storage times, and reduction of the number of organisms in foods at before it is sold, and reduction in the contamination levels in foods that support growth.
The relative risk rankings, along with the corresponding risk estimates expressed in terms of both the predicted number of cases per serving and per annum, are provided in Summary Table 1. Both measures are important in understanding and interpreting the risks associated with foodborne listeriosis. The per serving value can be considered the inherent risk associated with the manufacturing, distribution, marketing, and use of the food category, and is reflective of the degree of Listeria monocytogenes control achieved. Examples of factors that influence the 'per serving' risk include the frequency of contamination, the extent of that contamination, the ability of the food category to support the growth of Listeria monocytogenes, the duration and temperature of refrigerated storage, and the size of the serving. The predicted relative risk per serving can be viewed as the relative risk faced by individual consumers when he/she consume a single serving of the various foods considered in this risk assessment. The 'per serving' risk is typically the value upon which risk management decisions related to a specific product are based.

b Food categories were classified as very high risk (>100 cases per annum), high risk (>10 to 100 cases per annum), moderate risk (≥1 to 10 cases per annum), and low risk (<1 cases per annum).
The second measure, the 'per annum risk,' is the predicted number of fatal infections per year in the United States for each food category. This value takes into account the number of servings of the food category that are consumed. The predicted per annum risk of serious illnesses for each food category can be thought of as the predicted relative total public health impact for each food category. Since the 'per annum' risk is derived from the 'per serving' risk, there is generally a higher degree of uncertainty associated with the former. The predicted per serving and per annum relative risks are used to develop risk rankings to compare the various food categories. In addition to presenting the 'most likely' relative risk rankings for the different population groups and food categories, the risk assessment provides the inherent variability and the uncertainty associated with these rankings.
Evaluation and Interpretation
The overall interpretation of the risk assessment requires more than just a simple consideration of the relative risk rankings associated with the various food categories. First, the interpretation of the results requires an appreciation of the fact that the values being compared are the median values of distributions that may be highly skewed (i.e., not evenly distributed). The use of median values was selected as being the appropriate method for comparing the overall relative risks among the different food categories. The quantitative results must be considered in relation to the associated variability and uncertainty (i.e., the confidence intervals surrounding the median) and interpreted in the context of both the epidemiologic record and how the food categories are manufactured, marketed, and consumed. A detailed consideration of the quantitative and qualitative findings for each food category is provided in the risk assessment and its appendices.
A number of methods for objectively grouping the results were evaluated, and are discussed in detail within the risk assessment. One approach is cluster analysis. When performed at the 90% confidence level, this analysis groups the per serving rankings into four clusters and the per annum rankings into five. These clusters are used, in turn, to develop a two-dimensional matrix of per serving vs. per annum rankings of the food categories (Summary Figure 1). In this approach, the 'per serving' clusters are arrayed against the 'per annum' clusters. The matrix is then used to depict five risk designations: Very High, High, Moderate, Low, and Very Low.
The risk characterization combines the exposure and dose-response models to predict the relative risk of illness attributable to each food category. While the risk characterization must be interpreted in light of both the inherent variability and uncertainty associated with the extent of contamination of ready-to-eat foods with Listeria monocytogenes and the ability of the microorganism to cause disease, the results provide a means of comparing the relative risks among the different food categories and population groups considered in the assessment and should prove to be a useful tool in focusing control strategies and ultimately improving public health through effective risk management. As described above, cluster analysis techniques are employed as a means of discussing the food categories within a risk analysis framework. The food categories are divided into five overall risk designations (see Summary Figure 1), which are likely to require different approaches to controlling foodborne listeriosis.

|Summary Figure 1. Two-Dimensional Matrix of Food Categories Based on Cluster Analysis of Predicted per Serving and per Annum Relative Rankings
[The matrix was formed by the interception of the four per serving clusters vs. the per annum clusters A and B, C and D, and E. For example, Cluster 3-E (Low Risk) refers to the food categories that are in both Cluster level 3 for the risk per serving and Cluster level E for the risk per annum.]
Risk Designation Very High. This designation includes two food categories, Deli Meats and Frankfurters, Not Reheated. These are food categories that have high predicted relative risk rankings on both a per serving and per annum basis, reflecting the fact that they have relatively high rates of contamination, support the relatively rapid growth of Listeria monocytogenes under refrigerated storage, are stored for extended periods, and are consumed extensively. These products have also been directly linked to outbreaks of listeriosis. This risk designation is one that is consistent with the need for immediate attention in relation to the national goal for reducing the incidence of foodborne listeriosis. Likely activities include the development of new control strategies and/or consumer education programs suitable for these products.
Risk Designation High. This designation includes six food categories, High Fat and Other Dairy Products, Pasteurized Fluid Milk, Pâté and Meat Spreads, Soft Unripened Cheeses, Smoked Seafood, and Unpasteurized Fluid Milk. These food categories all have in common the ability to support the growth of Listeria monocytogenes during extended refrigerated storage. However, the foods within this risk designation appear to fall into two distinct groups based on their rates of contamination and frequencies of consumption.
Pâté and Meat Spreads, Smoked Seafood, and Unpasteurized Fluid Milk have relatively high rates of contamination and thus high predicted per serving relative risks. However, these products are generally consumed only occasionally in small quantities and/or are eaten by a relatively small portion of the population, which lowers the per annum risk. All three products have been associated with outbreaks or sporadic cases, at least internationally.
These foods appear to be priority candidates for new control measures (i.e., Smoked Seafood, Pâté and Meat Spreads) or continued avoidance (i.e., Unpasteurized Fluid Milk).
High Fat and Other Dairy Products, Pasteurized Fluid Milk, and Soft Unripened Cheeses have low rates of contamination and corresponding relatively low predicted per serving relative risks. However, these products are consumed often by a large percentage of the population, resulting in elevated predicted per annum relative risks. In general, the predicted per annum risk is not matched with an equivalent United States epidemiologic record. However, the low frequency of recontamination of individual servings of these products in combination with their broad consumption makes it likely that these products are primarily associated with sporadic cases and normal case control studies would be unlikely to lead to the identification of an association between these products and cases of listeriosis.
These products (High Fat and Other Dairy Products, Pasteurized Fluid Milk, and Soft Unripened Cheeses) appear to be priority candidates for advanced epidemiologic and scientific investigations to either confirm the predictions of the risk assessment or identify the factors not captured by the current models that would reduce the predicted relative risk.
Risk Designation Moderate. This risk designation includes nine food categories (Cooked Ready-to-Eat Crustaceans, Deli Salads, Fermented Sausages, Frankfurters-Reheated, Fresh Soft Cheese, Fruits, Semi-soft Cheese, Soft Ripened Cheese, and Vegetables) that encompass a range of contamination rates and consumption profiles. A number of these foods include effective bactericidal treatments in their manufacture or preparation (e.g., Cooked Ready-to-Eat Crustaceans, Frankfurters-Reheated, Semi-soft Cheese) or commonly employ conditions or compounds that inhibit the growth of Listeria monocytogenes (e.g., Deli Salads, Dry/Semi-dry Fermented Sausages). The risks associated with these products appear to be primarily associated with product recontamination, which in turn, is dependent on continued, vigilant application of proven control measures.
Risk Designation Low. This risk designation includes two food categories, Preserved Fish and Raw Seafood. Both products have moderate contamination rates but include conditions (e.g., acidification) or consumption characteristics (e.g., short shelf-life) that limit Listeria monocytogenes growth and thus limit predicted per serving risks. The products are generally consumed in small quantities by a small portion of the population on an infrequent basis, which results in low predicted per annum relative risks. Exposure data for these products are limited so there is substantial uncertainty in the findings. However, the current results predict that these products, when manufactured consistent with current good manufacturing practices, are not likely to be a major source of foodborne listeriosis.
Risk Designation Very Low. This risk designation includes four food categories, Cultured Milk Products, Hard Cheese, Ice Cream and Other Frozen Dairy Products, and Processed Cheese. These products all have in common the characteristics of being subjected to a bactericidal treatment, having very low contamination rates, and possessing an inherent characteristic that either inactivates Listeria monocytogenes (e.g., Cultured Milk Products, Hard Cheese) or prevents its growth (e.g., Ice Cream and Other Frozen Dairy Products, Processed Cheese). This results in a very low predicted per serving relative risks. The predicted per annum relative risks are also low despite the fact that these products are among the more commonly consumed ready-to-eat products considered by the risk assessment. The results of the risk assessment predict that unless there was a gross error in their manufacture, these products are highly unlikely to be a significant source of foodborne listeriosis.
The following conclusions are provided as an integration of the results derived from the models, the evaluation of the variability and uncertainty underlying the results, and the impact that the various qualitative factors identified in the hazard identification, exposure assessment, and hazard characterization have on the interpretation of the risk assessment.
- The risk assessment reinforces past epidemiological conclusions that foodborne listeriosis is a moderately rare although severe disease. United States consumers are exposed to low to moderate levels of Listeria monocytogenes on a regular basis.
- The risk assessment supports the findings of epidemiological investigations of both sporadic illness and outbreaks of listeriosis that certain foods are more likely to be vehicles for Listeria monocytogenes.
- Three dose-response models were developed that relate the exposure to different levels of Listeria monocytogenes in three age-based subpopulations [i.e., perinatal (fetuses and newborns), elderly, and intermediate-age] with the predicted number of fatalities. These models were used to describe the relationship between levels of Listeria monocytogenes ingested and the incidence of listeriosis. The dose of Listeria monocytogenes necessary to cause listeriosis depends greatly upon the immune status of the individual.
- Susceptible subpopulations (such as the elderly and perinatal) are more likely to contract listeriosis than the general population.
- Within the intermediate-age subpopulation group, almost all cases of listeriosis are associated with specific subpopulation groups with increased susceptibility (e.g., individuals with chronic illnesses, individuals taking immunosuppressive medication).
- The strong association of foodborne listeriosis with specific population groups suggests that strategies targeted to these susceptible population groups, i.e., perinatal (pregnant women), elderly, and susceptible individuals within the intermediate-age group, would result in the greatest reduction in the public health impact of this pathogen.
- The dose-response models developed for this risk assessment considered, for the first time, the range of virulence observed among different isolates of Listeria monocytogenes. The dose-response curves suggest that the relative risk of contracting listeriosis from low dose exposures could be less than previously estimated.>
- The exposure models and the accompanying 'what-if' scenarios identify five broad factors that affect consumer exposure to Listeria monocytogenes at the time of food consumption.
- Amounts and frequency of consumption of a ready-to-eat food
- Frequency and levels of Listeria monocytogenes in a ready-to-eat food
- Potential of the food to support growth of Listeria monocytogenes during refrigerated storage
- Refrigerated storage temperature
- Duration of refrigerated storage before consumption
Any of these factors can affect potential exposure to Listeria monocytogenes from a food category. These factors are 'additive' in the sense that foods where multiple factors favor high levels of Listeria monocytogenes at the time of consumption are typically more likely to be riskier than foods where a single factor is high. These factors also suggest several broad control strategies that could reduce the risk of foodborne listeriosis such as reformulation of products to reduce their ability to support the growth of Listeria monocytogenes or encouraging consumers to keep refrigerator temperatures at or below 40 °F and reduce refrigerated storage times. For example, the 'what-if' scenarios using Deli Meats predicts that consumer education and other strategies aimed at maintaining home refrigerator temperatures at 40 °F could substantially reduce the risks associated with this food category. Combining this with pre-retail treatments that decrease the contamination levels in Deli Meats would be expected to reduce the risk even further.
This risk assessment significantly advances our ability to describe our current state of knowledge about this important foodborne pathogen, while simultaneously providing a framework for integrating and evaluating the impact of new scientific knowledge on public health enhancement.

A powerful approach to the teaching and learning of mathematics for students of science and engineering has been made practical through the development of powerful general mathematical software, of which Maple provides the least steep learning curve. Accordingly, it is timely to produce an interactive electronic textbook that, for students of chemistry -- also biochemistry and chemical engineering, has as its objective in part I,Mathematics for...
I'm looking for several challenging projects for a Calculus II course using Maple which I'll be teaching in Spring 2013. By challenging I mean that the project will have several steps including both conceptual and computational aspects. I'd also like them to be suitable for group work if possible. I'd be willing to devote from 3-5 class periods for each of three or four different projects. Our Calc I and Calc II are five hour...

Recently, a Maplesoft customer service representative received an e-mail from one of our users with the subject line: A Simple Thank You. We wanted to share this message with you, as it demonstrates how the power and flexibility of Maple helped one student get ahead in his studies. The following is an actual email we received from Eli E., which describes his experience using Maple as a university student.
Hello, my name is Eli...

My list of problems solved with Clickable-Calculus syntax-free techniques now numbers 154, spread over eight subject areas. Recently, Maplesoft posted to its website 44 of these problems, along with videos of their point-and-click solutions. Not only do these solutions demonstrate Maple functionalities, but they also have a pedagogic message, that is resequencing skills and concepts. They show how Maple can be used to obtain a solution, then show how Maple can be used to implement...
Being easy to use is nice, but being easy to learn with is better. Maple's ease-of-use paradigm, captured in the phrases "Clickable Calculus" and "Clickable Math" provides a syntax-free way to use Maple. The learning curve is flattened. But making Maple easy to use to use badly in the classroom helps neither student nor instructor.
In the mid to late '80s,...

Christmas in New York
Christmas has always been a time for a family get together; that the tradition but increasingly in recent years, couples or whole families head for somewhere abroad to the holiday. Most people now get a two week break and it is a chance to fly away somewhere.
While he motive for some is the sun, it is not something New York can offer; it is sometimes the complete opposite yet Christmas in New York still has an appeal. So what can a tourist do beyond of course enjoying Broadway, the cinemas, bars and restaurants?
Some things depend on the climate at the time. There may be snow in Central Park and there will most certainly be wonderful displays in some of the well known department stores on Fifth Avenue keen to attract customers.
It may be possible to skate in Times Square and that is certainly something for a photograph. The Rockefeller Centre Ice Rink is the busiest in New York but it is well worth going there. Two open air rinks in Central Park are popular for those wrapping up well.
It is also worth going to the Rockefeller Centre to see the Tree in Times Square. It is lit just after Thanksgiving at the beginning of December.
There will be special shows at Christmas; have a look and see what is on at Radio City Music Hall. Tickets for Christmas first go on sale in September so if you are booked by then check on the special early prices.
Midtown Manhattan is the place to be whether for shows, Times Square and shopping and there are plenty of hotels nearby. However there is much more to shopping than Fifth Avenue and several markets have bargains for presents over the holidays. Bryant Park on 6th and 42nd has a free European style market with plenty of things to buy.
There is also a holiday fair a little further uptown at Grand Central Terminal right up to Christmas Eve for those last minute presents, everything from jewellery to other crafts while Columbus Circle is another market shopping option.
Further afield Bronx Zoo makes a real effort at Christmas creating a true winter wonderland. Apart from the lighting, there are reindeer, polar bears, storytelling, ice carvings and much more. The Zoo is open throughout the Christmas holiday though closed on Christmas Eve evening.
Many of New York's churches have the Messiah at Christmas and let us not forget that this holiday is a celebration of a religious festival.
On Christmas Day itself you will obviously want Dinner. There are many restaurants offering this special dinner and it is worth doing a bit of research to see which offers something that attracts you, whether it is the location of the restaurant or the details on offer.
Christmas is a special time in the calendar; New York is a special city. A combination of the two can be irresistible.

Undergraduate Programs
B.S. Environmental Geosciences
Bachelor of Arts in Earth Science
The Bachelor of Arts in Earth Science program is designed for the student who wishes to have a basic knowledge of geology to build a career in a geology-related area, or teach in the primary or secondary schools. The Earth Science major may supplement the Geology program with courses from such related areas including Environmental Studies, Biological Sciences, Geography, Archaeology, and Economics.
The department's programs place heavy emphasis on teaching students to work effectively in the field (where the geology is) and to prepare properly organized and written geologic reports and maps. The small classes constantly give each student the opportunity to present material orally, a very important professional skill. The two principal field courses Geology majors take in their junior or senior year are important focal points in their training. The fall field course is currently run along the dramatic eastern escarpment of the Sierra Nevada. The winter field course is a three-week exercise held in the Mojave Desert of southern California.
This major is for those who intend to teach in secondary schools. It does not constitute preparation for a career in geology. Senior and junior high school teachers may wish to accompany this major with another endorsable area to obtain certification.
Students who declare a major in geology must register with the department and work out a specific program of studies with the chair or an assigned advisor. Course programs can be tailored to the student's needs and interests with the aid of an academic advisor. Other course requirements may be modified in cases where past performance indicates superior ability.
Visit the CWU Catalog for the details of class requirements and electives:
The Online Electronic Catalog (OEC) is the university's official compilation for all curriculum. The OEC serves as the basis for major, minor, specialization, certificate, and program requirements for the academic year. For current policy and curriculum requirements refer to the CWU online catalog at http://www.cwu.edu/~catalogs. You may choose the catalog that is appropriate for your program requirements, based on the quarter that you were accepted into your program. Some students may be using more than one catalog to meet general education and major requirements.
A student should expect to meet the specific requirements of the departments listed in the OEC that is current at the time he or she is accepted by the department into the major or minor program. Graduate students admitted to the master*s degree program may use the catalog they are admitted under or the current one. A student should expect to complete general education requirements as listed in the OEC current at the time of first enrollment at either Central or a community college in the state of Washington provided he or she transfers directly to CWU from the community college and has not attended another four-year institution.

Bravo acquires TelevisionWithoutPity.com
In its first-ever acquisition, Bravo has picked TelevisionWithoutPity.com, a TV fan site. Co-founders Tara Ariano and Sarah Bunting will remain editors of the site (they met in a "Beverly Hills 90210″ chat room). The site pulls in one million uniques and 30 million page views a month. By adding the site to Bravo's online properties — BravoTV.com, BrilliantButCancelled, OutzoneTV.com and GetTRIO.com — Bravo will double its total page views. The selling price was not released. Press release with more…
PRESS RELEASE – NEW YORK — March 13, 2007 — Bravo announced today the network's first-ever media acquisition, TelevisionWithoutPity.com, a premiere internet destination for the discerning television "junkie." This becomes Bravo's latest addition to its portfolio of linked digital assets and broadband properties that includes BravoTV.com and the TRIO suite of channels: BrilliantButCancelled.com, OUTzoneTV.com and getTRIO.com, the recently launched newsletter and broadband site. TelevisionWithoutPity provides witty no-holds-barred episode recaps and fan forums for television's most popular drama and reality shows. Details of the acquisition, which calls for the URL to remain www.TelevisionWithoutPity.com and link to the TRIO suite of channels, were not disclosed. The announcement was made today by Lauren Zalaznick, President, Bravo.
"TelevisionWithoutPity is an online brand destination for the impassioned and opinionated television viewer, which mirrors the exact attributes of Bravo's core audience," said Zalaznick. "This will broaden the scope of our sites to create a community where smart people with something to say about their favorite shows, past and present, can get together under the umbrella of Bravo's pop sensibility."
Described as "bitingly funny" by Time magazine and "the industry standard" by Entertainment Weekly, www.TelevisionWithoutPity.com has penetrated the pop culture television obsessed audience, drawing the devoted attention of viewers and Hollywood producers alike. With a signature smart and sardonic voice, the editorial staff from across the country summarizes more than 40 television shows into weekly "recaps." The recaps combine a clever eye for detail with a healthy dose of cheeky commentary, sometimes deemed better than the actual episodes. Later this month "Brothers & Sisters," "Men in Trees," "Drive" and "The Wire" will be added to the existing recaps.
Passionate TelevisionWithoutPity groupies come to the fan forums for heated discussions on what they love to love and love to hate about television. The site attracts more than one million unique monthly visitors – who spend an average of 12.9 minutes on the site during a given visit – and receives approximately 30 million page views a month, according to comScore MediaMetrix and Internal Web Analytics Tracking. By adding TelevisionWithoutPity, Bravo elevates its presence on the web by more than 27% in unique visitors and more than doubles total page views.
TelevisionWithoutPity.com co-founders Tara Ariano (known online as Wing Chun) and Sarah D. Bunting (a.k.a. Sars) met in a "Beverly Hills 90210″ chat room and quickly bonded over their love-hate relationship with bad TV. Although based in two different cities (Ariano in Toronto and Bunting in Brooklyn, New York), together they created DawsonsWrap.com in the fall of 1998, a site devoted exclusively to the analysis, discussion and lobbing of rotten vegetables at "Dawson's Creek." Inspired by the positive response to DawsonsWrap.com, they expanded the site in September 1999 into its current form but called MightyBigTV.com with more than a dozen shows on the regular recap roster. In early 2002, the name changed and TelevisionWithoutPity.com officially was born.
As part of the acquisition, principal co-founders Ariano and Bunting will remain on as Editors, overseeing all content. David T. Cole (screen name Glark), co-founder and Ariano's husband, who has served as Community Engineer and Lead Designer for the site, has been named Manager, Media Technology Production. Cole also will continue to oversee the popular fan forums.
"We only did this to make our ongoing project of stalking Tim Gunn a bit easier," joke Bunting and Ariano. "Actually, it's long been our dream to turn Television Without Pity into the fullest, richest, raddest, all-round best TV site on the internet, and with Bravo's commitment and creativity behind us, we're thrilled to start making that happen."
And Cole quipped, "Leave me alone, I'm eating."
As part of the overall deal, Bravo also acquired Fametracker.com, a pop culture site started by Ariano and partner Adam Sternbergh. Self-dubbed "the Farmer's Almanac of celebrity worth," the site is an e-zine with a humorous look at the culture of celebrity, and has collected accolades from MTV, Variety and Entertainment Weekly, among many others.
Ariano, a writer, editor, and website producer, earned her B.A. in English Literature from Brock University, and her M.A. from the University of Toronto. After she earned her Masters, she worked as a copywriter for a Los Angeles-based interactive agency, assisting such clients as Disneyland and Sega, and later on the editorial staff of Canadian general-interest monthly Saturday Night. Shortly after embarking upon full-time self-employment as a website producer, Ariano and partner Sternbergh founded Fametracker.com; TelevisionWithoutPity.com came a few months later.
Born and raised in New Jersey, Bunting majored in English/creative writing at Princeton University. She worked as a church secretary, a pool tester, a CD-ROM producer, a records clerk, and an antiquarian book dealer (not all at the same time) before founding TomatoNation.com — a website featuring essays and advice — in 1997. A chance online meeting with Ariano that same year led to the formation of Dawson's Wrap, which in turn spawned TelevisionWithoutPity. A website producer, editor and writer, Bunting's work has appeared in New York Magazine, Money, among others, as well as in the short-story collection You're The Best (Kingfisher, 2006). She wrote, directed, and co-produced The Famous Ghost Monologues Off-Off-Broadway in 2004, and is the co-author (with Ariano) of Television Without Pity: 752 Things We Hate To Love (And Love To Hate) About TV (Quirk Books, 2006).
Cole began his career designing ads for, and later editing, the Brock University's student newspaper; this background eventually led him to design for the burgeoning Internet. In 1995, Cole started working for the Los Angeles-based web design firm Jamison/Gold as art director where he helped design the first websites for the Nissan Pathfinder and Sony Playstation. As the founding director of Toronto-based web developer Uber Interactive, Cole continued specializing in websites for entertainment properties, working with clients in videogaming (Atari), TV series (CBC, Breakthrough Films), and music (Patty Griffin, the Rolling Stones). In addition to co-founding Fametracker.com and TelevisionWithoutPity.com, Cole more recently has founded the sites Videogamey.com and WhoInTheWhatNow.com (a daily word-association blog reliant on comments from its devoted readers). In 2002, Cole created Glarkware.com, an online retailer for his designs, which appear on apparel, buttons, magnets, paper products, and accessories.

Hey I was just wondering if anyone could give me some insight on some supplements that may be harmful.. if there is any. I love taking supplements but I am not sure if they are bad for you because they really haven't been around too long to see how older people are responding to them. I am a little conscious about pre-workouts in general. All that caffine with mysterious ingredients seem like a death sentance for the heart. I was reading an article on how jack3d just got banned from military bases for causing kidney failure/ heart attacks. Like I said, I am not going to pretend I know what is harmful and what is not, I just wanted to see if anyone had any insight on any particular products that may be harmful so I can stay away from them. Thanks.

Smithfield Foods Recognizes Facility And Employee Achievements In Promoting Environmental Excellence
SMITHFIELD, Va., July 30, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Smithfield Foods, Inc. (NYSE:SFD) has honored several of its facilities and employees for their successful sustainability efforts during fiscal year 2013 through a number of innovative environmental projects.
The bottom-line impact of these projects was significant, with Smithfield Foods saving more than 592 million gallons of water, nearly 12 million kilowatts of electricity and about 721,000 gallons of fuel oil. These reductions, along with other sustainability achievements resulting from various projects implemented by Smithfield's family of companies, produced an annual cost savings of more than $8 million.
Smithfield recognized the environmental achievements of the past fiscal year during its annual Environmental Excellence Awards banquet on July 17, 2013.Smithfield executives presented one President's Award and 12 Environmental Excellence Awards for a variety of project categories that represent a companywide commitment to sustainability: wastewater handling and treatment; environmental training and/or ISO 14001; resource conservation-waste reduction; packaging reduction; best recycling of a previous year's project; community outreach and innovative solution to a compliance issue. The President's Award was presented to John Morrell, of Peru, Indiana, for its resource conservation/waste reduction project. John Morrell's Peru plant became the first Smithfield Foods facility to achieve zero-waste-to-landfill, reducing solid waste from 999 tons in fiscal year 2008 down to less than 25 tons during fiscal year 2013. The John Morrell facility also won an Environmental Excellence Award in the wastewater handling and treatment category for saving 3.5 million gallons of water and more than 5,000 pounds of chemicals. A complete list of categories and award recipients can be found below. For fiscal year 2013, 182 companywide projects were submitted for review. "We're very proud of our employees, who continue to find innovative ways to promote our sustainability efforts by enhancing our environmental management processes. Clearly, their ongoing efforts are producing measurable sustainability results that create value for our businesses and communities," said Dennis H. Treacy, Smithfield's executive vice president and chief sustainability officer.
