A listeria scare has triggered a substantial recall at hundreds of grocery stores nationwide.
"Food recalls should be taken seriously," says Ellsworth Buck, Vice President of GreatFlorida Insurance, Florida's largest independent healthcare insurance agency. "Some foodborne sickness can cause serious, life-threatening illness."
CRF Frozen Food, a major supplier of frozen fruits and vegetables has issued a voluntary recall after discovering listeria at a major production facility in Pasco, Washington. The expanded recall affects 358 products under 42 different brand names.
Traders Joes leads the extensive list of suppliers that includes other stores such as Walmart, Safeway and Costco. Some of the brands that are affected include; Kirkland, Great Value, Organic by Nature, Parade and Panda Express.
The company reports the manufacturing process may have been tainted as long ago as May 2014. The recall extends to products with sell by dates between April 26, 2016 thru April 26, 2018.
Products include organic and non-organic broccoli, butternut squash, carrots, cauliflower, corn, edamame, green beans, Italian beans, kale, leeks, lima beans, onions, peas, pepper strips, potatoes, potato medley, root medley, spinach, sweet potatoes, various vegetable medleys, blends and stir fry packages, blueberries, cherries, cranberries, peaches, raspberries and strawberries.
A complete list from the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is available here.
Several people have been hospitalized as a result of the outbreak. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reports at least seven people from three states became ill and were hospitalized due to the listeria strain that can be traced back to the plant.
"If you are experiencing unusual symptoms you should see your healthcare provider right away, before the illness has time to develop into something more serious," says Buck with GreatFlorida Insurance, Florida's leading health insurance provider.

According to a recent AAA Consumer Pulse survey, nearly one in five motorcyclists does not have motorcycle insurance.
"Florida law does not require motorcycle insurance," says Ellsworth Buck, Vice President of GreatFlorida Insurance, Florida's largest independent motorcycle insurance agency. "Motorcycle insurance is not required however, if a motorcyclist is charged in an accident, then they are financially responsible for injuries and property damage."
AAA estimates the economic cost to society for each motorcycle death is $1.48 million. These costs include; lost productivity, medical costs, legal and court fees, emergency services, insurance administration costs along with property damage and workplace losses.
Florida has the most motorcycle fatalities in the nation, says the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). Motorcyclists accounted for 19 percent of motor vehicles deaths in the state. Florida Department of Highway Safety reports in 2014, there were 449 motorcycle fatalities.
Further complicating the issue is the helmet law in Florida. A motorcycle rider is not required to wear a helmet in Florida.
"There are exceptions to the helmet law," says Buck from GreatFlorida Insurance, Florida's leading independent motorcycle insurance agency. "Those under 21 and anyone without a minimum of $10,000 of medical insurance coverage are required to keep their helmet on while riding."
The helmet law is not without its controversies. In Florida, 32 percent of motorcyclists do not think they should be required to wear a helmet when riding. "Since the repeal of the helmet law in Florida, motorcycle fatalities have more than doubled," said Karen Morgan, Public Policy Manager, AAA.
The NHTSA estimates that helmets saved the lives of 1,630 motorists in Florida in 2013. They believe if all motorcyclists wore helmets, an additional 715 lives could have been saved.

"Everyone is familiar with the harmful health effects that result from smoking, but many smokers probably do not take the time to calculate the expense attached to the habit," says Ellsworth Buck, Vice President of GreatFlorida Insurance, Florida's leading independent health insurance provider.
For years Floridians have been educated on the dangers of smoking. The American Lung Association reports, "More than 480,000 people in the U.S. die every year from tobacco use and exposure to second hand smoke. It is the leading cause of preventable death in this country."
Cigarettes are loaded with cancer causing chemicals and are the primary source of lung cancer and COPD chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, including emphysema and chronic bronchitis. Smoking also causes coronary heart disease and stroke with a list of other health issues.
You cannot ignore the addiction of smoking without being sympathetic to the difficultly in breaking the habit. Nicotine is a physical, social and psychological addiction.
According to the National Institute on Drug Abuse, close to 35 million smokers want to quit each year. Unfortunately, more than 85 percent of those who try to quit on their own relapse within a week.
"Most smokers confess that smoking is bad for your health, but that doesn't make it easier to quit," says Buck with GreatFlorida Insurance.
If the above evidence isn't enough to persuade you to quit, personal finance website, WalletHub.com recently published a study calculating the costs of smoking per state. "The study calculated the potential monetary losses including the cost of a pack of cigarettes per day over several decades, healthcare expenditures, income loss and other costs brought on by smoking and exposure to secondhand smoke."
Over a lifetime, the average smoker in Florida will spend, $1, 453,333. Healthcare costs are estimated at $163, 277. Over a year, the average Florida smoker will spend $28, 497 with healthcare costs totaling $3, 202.
Whether the figures are exact for each smoker or a mere generalization, the fact is smoking is a drain on your wallet, healthcare costs and more importantly your life.

"Passing on the latest product and food recalls are one of the ways we can keep our employees and customers healthy and safe," said Ellsworth Buck, Vice President of GreatFlorida Insurance, Florida's leading independent healthcare insurance agency.
USA Today declared just last month, one of the hottest toys/tech gadgets for Christmas was the hoverboard. It's a motorized, self-balancing, two-wheel scooter. The hoverboard is available from several manufacturers and is powered by a lithium battery and operated by leaning in and balancing.
Just as this in demand gift was hitting its rise, several accounts began coming in to the U.S. Product Safety Commission. CBS News reports the number of injuries and fires associated with the hoverboard has increased to 25 percent in the past several days. Many injuries are fall and collision related while there are also reports of the boards catching fire.
The agency is not issuing a recall until they can determine what is causing the hoverboards to overheat and catch fire. Meanwhile several retailers such as Costco, Amazon and Overstock.com are ceasing the sale of some models. All major U.S. Airlines have banned hoverboards on planes. They are citing the lithium-ion batteries responsible for charging the boards as a potential problem.
Products are not the only recent recalls. With outbreaks of norovirus and E.coli at the popular restaurant Chipotle, it is an unfortunate reminder that food and product recalls happen on sometimes a daily basis. Some popular food products that caught our eye at GreatFlorida Insurance are listed below.

Many seniors 65 and older are continuing to work beyond they typical age of retirement to gain access to better healthcare insurance.
"Employer based insurance plans have more affordable options than those with the Affordable Care Act which can have high premiums and deductibles," reported Ellsworth Buck, Vice President of GreatFlorida Insurance, Florida's largest independent healthcare insurance agency.
Employer based healthcare plans often include extended coverage for the employer as well as their spouse on doctor visits, hospital trips and prescription medication. These benefits are much more than they can get from Medicare alone, which does not provide a family plan. The government insurance plan covers emergency care but many seniors are looking for more.
Those 65 and older made up 18.9 percent of the workforce in the United States in 2014, according to a report by U.S. News & World Report. In 2013, 4.9 million full-time, year round workers in the U.S. were 65 and older.
"The conventional idea of retirement is changing," said Ellsworth Buck, with GreatFlorida Insurance.
In the National Health Interview Survey, from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), researchers found that not only working past 65 years old can provide you with better health insurance options but can keep you healthier.
"Being unemployed/retired was associated with the greatest risk of poor health across all health status measures, even after controlling for smoking status, obesity and other predictors of health," concluded the study authors.
In order to find the best healthcare insurance for your family, some research could be required. It is advised to enroll in Medicaid within three months of your 65th birthday, as a precautionary measure.
No matter your age, GreatFlorida Insurance can compare popular health insurance plans to find which ones fit your needs within your budget. Call us today.

"It's not unusual to encounter an alligator on the golf course when you are playing golf in Florida but lately, there has been some remarkable alligator activity on some Florida courses," says Ellsworth Buck, Vice President of GreatFlorida Insurance, Florida's largest healthcare insurance agency.
Two alligators shocked golfers when they began to wrestle on the greens at the Myakka Pines Golf Club in Englewood. Golfers reported that the two gators thrashed and bit one another for at least 10 minutes before the smaller gator, estimated to be 10 feet long, limped away. The champion of the fight, Goliath has been nicknamed by locals and is known for making appearances on the golf course but has never been seen taking on another alligator.
At the Crandon Park Golf Course in Key Biscayne, a six foot crocodile ate a dog after it ran into the water. The dog was a 25 pound pit bull terrier mix, off his lease and chasing ducks and geese in the early morning hours.
Another alligator was photographed by a stunned golfer in Naples at The Golf Club at Fiddler's Creek. The alligator was feasting on a large python.
While alligators are native to Florida, alligator attacks are rare. According to the Tampa Bay Times, no one has suffered a fatal, unprovoked alligator bite in Florida since 2007. Encouraging news, there are no documented deaths from an alligator bite to a golfer in Florida. The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission, FWC reports 10 percent of all violent gator confrontations occur when golfers are trying to retrieve balls.
With an estimated 1.5 alligators populating the state, it is no wonder they can be seen lurking around golf course marsh areas and banks with heavy vegetation. "At one time, the American alligator was considered endangered but thanks to the alligator population boost, the species was removed from the endangered list," reports Buck, from healthcare insurance provider GreatFlorida Insurance.
In order to have a peaceful co-existence between golfer and alligators, the FWC has the following recommendations:
Alligators less than four feet long are not considered dangerous. If you encounter a gator longer than four feet and posing a threat to people, property or pets, call the Nuisance Alligator Hotline at 866-FWC-GATOR (866-392-4286). Nuisance alligators are killed not relocated.
GreatFlorida Insurance wants to help keep golfers in prime shape for the green. That can be accomplished through the high quality healthcare insurance we provide to cover well visits and injury care. Give us a call today.

Physical Benefits
Having an attitude of gratitude is proven to boost your immune system and lead to better sleep while contributing to higher energy levels and more exercise. WebMD reports that stress is linked to several leading causes of death including, heart disease, diabetes and cancer.
Stress is the result of 90 percent of all doctor visits. Being thankful can help people cope better with pressure on a daily basis. A University of Utah study showed that stressed out law students who were optimistic had more immune boosting blood cells than their pessimistic peers.
Bing Crosby sang, "When I'm worried and I can't sleep, I count my blessings instead of sheep and I fall asleep counting my blessings," there is some truth to the popular tune. Stress is also a culprit of sleep quality and restfulness. According to a 2012 study published in Personality and Individual Differences, grateful people were more likely to exercise more often and attend preventative check-ups with their doctors. These factors, along with quality health insurance are likely to contribute to a healthy lifestyle.
Mental Benefits
Being thankful can contribute to a more optimistic outlook on life, less materialism, less self-centeredness and increased self-esteem. When you are thankful for what you have, you begin to starve the need for more in your life. When we get more, we seem to want more, which places us in a cycle of discontentment.
"Being thankful can cause you to think about yourself less and focus more on others," comments Buck, from GreatFlorida Insurance. An article found in Psychology Today says, "Thankfulness is reported to reduce toxic emotions such as envy, resentment, frustration and regret." Examinations by Robert Emmon, a leading gratitude researcher found gratitude effectively increases happiness and reduces depression.
Emotional Benefits
Let's face it- no one enjoys hanging out with "Debbie Downer" complaining about their problems. People who are thankful are characteristically happier, less envious, more relaxed, kinder, are more social and maintain stronger friendships and marriage relations.
A 2014 study published in Emotionnews, found that thanking a new acquaintance makes them more likely to seek an ongoing relationship. Write a thank-you note, thanking someone for even a small act of generosity can open doors for new and meaningful relationships.
If some of the following claims leave you feeling a bit dubious, check it out for yourself. Try keeping a thankful journal and record your blessings on a regular basis. Also, try to reframe a situation that seems negative by viewing it through the lens of gratitude, you might find yourself thankful for the situation.

Little Man Lyrics
Artist: Sebadoh
Album: Freed Weed
Your time is up little man€
There's a man running up your streets
From his belt hangs dead parakeets
He holds that big old club real tight
He holds a wrench and a very sharp knife
Your time is up little man
Down, down, down with the club
Drown, drown, drown in your blood
Can't take a piss he's here
Can't watch TV he's here
He€™ll fucking bash your precious little head, Little Man
He€™s beating you with his club
He€™s stabbing red hot pain into your thigh, Little man

Illinois Gay Marriage Bill Sponsor at Pride Parade
6/30/2013 @ 9:17 PMCHICAGO (AP) - The state representative who sponsored Illinois' failed gay marriage bill marched in Chicago's Pride Parade.
State Rep. Greg Harris wore a T-shirt on Sunday that read "I'm a Yes for Marriage Equality." He and other lawmakers were criticized for not bringing the measure for an Illinois House vote last month after it passed the Illinois Senate on Valentine's Day. But none of that tension was visible during the parade.
Harris walked the route, waved to enthusiastic crowds and received cheers. He says that Illinois is "in a truely second-class status" until lawmakers make gay marriage legal. He promised to bring back the issue in the fall.
Illinois allowed civil unions in 2011.

This was an excellent way to cook boneless top sirloin steak. I don't know if that's what you had in mind for sirloin steak, but that was what was on sale and I searched for a recipe to use. The steak was very tender. I cooked it "medium" on the grill and it was very juicy and tender. When I heat the leftovers (my husband is just having the steak and not the sauce with his breakfast this morning), I will cut the mushrooms smaller and thicken the sauce with a little flour. You certainly have a winner! Thanks for posting.
Fantastic! Simple!! Quick and easy on a hot summer night. I added 2 Tbsp of Mrs. Dash for seasoning with the salt and pepper. The meat tasted like a steakhouse dinner! With redskin potatoes and sweet corn, it was a hit with my entire family. Tender, juicy and very full of flavor, I will do this one for company!
This was a very nice grilled steak. We used a bone-in sirloin and I halved the mushrooms. The recipe is well written and it came together as it should. My husband made kind of a pig of himself with this steak and has requested I make it again.....or maybe I'll make him do it next time? Thanks Mamie for a really good summertime grilled steak idea!

Travelers may now use Google Transit — Google's public transportation trip planning function — to plan their journeys on Amtrak as five of the railroad's routes were recently added to the Google Transit system.
"Google Transit offers Amtrak's passengers a valuable travel planning tool while introducing rail travel to a whole new audience" said Matt Hardison, Amtrak's chief of sales distribution and customer service. Google Transit provides travelers public transportation connections when planning a trip in more than 400 cities. Through the Trip Planner, users receive step-by-step transit directions, details on transit stations in their area and schedules. By adding Amtrak to the mix, travelers now have expanded transportation options.Plans call for all Amtrak routes across the country to eventually be available through Google Transit. The first five routes now available include:* Empire Service (New York - Albany - Buffalo - Niagara Falls)* Ethan Allen Express (New York - Albany - Rutland)* Hiawatha Service (Chicago - Milwaukee)* Pacific Surfliner (San Diego - Los Angeles - Santa Barbara - San Luis Obispo)* San Joaquin (Oakland - Sacramento - Fresno - Bakersfield)When queried, the Google Transit Trip Planner provides users with up to three different transit- and rail-based options to get to their destination. Included is the amount of time each option will take, the number and mode of transfers and walking directions from the train station to the destination.
If Amtrak is an option, a link to Amtrak.com will appear so users may make a train reservation. Street view imagery provides travelers with ground-level images of their route, in addition to a map. Query results also provide users information for transferring from Amtrak to the local transit system.The Google Transit Trip Planner also provides users who request driving directions a detailed route which includes travel on Amtrak, if appropriate. Alongside the driving directions is a link offering public transportation as an alternative. In this way, travelers who may not have previously considered public transportation can investigate Amtrak as an option.Google Transit is also accessible through any Java-enabled hand-held device, putting Amtrak schedules at users' fingertips. Queries made on hand-held devices also include a link to Amtrak.com, allowing users to make a reservation. Further, the Trip Planner supports 40-plus languages and provides access for the visually impaired through an output that is compatible with screen readers. A tutorial of Google Transit is available at http://maps.google.com/help/maps/transit/.In addition, Amtrak continues to use the funds it received from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act to improve the service it provides. That includes using $400,000 of ARRA funds to automate the process of compiling electronic Amtrak schedules that can be shared with Google Transit.
The legislation doubles the fines from $250 to $500 for a first offense and from $500 to $1,000 for a second or subsequent offense.
Through a comprehensive Safety Management Inspection, three Safety Directives, two immediate action letters, and ongoing inspection and investigation activity FTA safety oversight is requiring WMATA to take numerous positive actions to improve safety for passengers and workers.
Delivery of the first metro trains is scheduled in 2018, and the order will be completed in the following year.
The agency opened its $44 million Green Line only four years ago; however, the line currently averages only 440 boardings a day with limited service, and costs RT $330,000 annually to operate.
The 6.6-mile Expo extension runs from Culver City to Santa Monica and includes seven stations. Ridership on the new portion is projected to total 18,000 to 20,000 weekday boardings after the first year of service. The travel time from downtown L.A. to the Downtown Santa Monica Station is 48 minutes.

MIAMI and LOS ANGELES, Feb. 25, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Telemundo Media, the largest producer of Spanish Language prime time content in the U.S. and audiences around the world; and Fandango, the nation's leading moviegoer destination representing more than 70% of U.S. screens online, today launched Fandango Cine, www.fandangocine.com the most comprehensive web and mobile movie site specifically geared toward Hispanic movie fans. Fandango Cine's launch partners are Universal Pictures' "Fast & Furious 6" and Sprint.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20061016/LAM046LOGO-b)
Fandango Cine will be integrated into www.telemundo.com, mun2.tv and www.fandango.com, and will offer movie-related content in Spanish, as well as provide Fandango's comprehensive movie show times, unparalleled ticketing expertise and access to over 20,000 screens across the country.
Fandango Cine's rich content offerings include original movie-related editorial and video programming in Spanish with original features, interviews, movie guides and more. New original shows created especially for Fandango Cine will debut in March and include:
- "Fandango Cine: En Taquillas": a Monday box office recap of the week's English and Spanish language films
- "Fandango Cine: En Cartelera": a preview of the weekend's upcoming movies
- "Pop Cine": the latest news of the movie industry
- "Cine Buzz": an insider look at breaking news on Latinos in the movie industry
These segments will run across Telemundo Media platforms including digital, mobile and television.
Nearly 40 million Hispanic moviegoers purchased 286 million movie tickets in North America in 2011, according to the Motion Picture Association of America. Beyond that, Hispanics have the highest movie-going per capita rate, averaging five trips to the movies a year, as opposed to an average of four trips for other ethnic groups.
"Fandango Cine marks a significant move for Telemundo as we launch the most comprehensive and dedicated multiscreen approach designed to reach U.S. Hispanic movie fans," said Peter Blacker, EVP of Digital & Emerging Media, Telemundo Media. "In developing this initiative with Fandango, we have the perfect partner in innovation and consumer responsiveness that acknowledges the explosion of Hispanic mobile, internet and social media users. We look forward to further deepening the movie going experience for this dynamic and ever growing community."
According to a 2012 study from Nielsen National Research Group, U.S. Hispanic consumers dominate over all ethnic groups in online and media usage on smartphones, online video, social networking and other types of entertainment. The study also indicated that Hispanic viewers are 68% more likely than non-Hispanic White viewers to watch video on the Internet and 20% more likely to watch video on their mobile phone.
"Universal is proud to have 'Fast & Furious 6' serve as a launch partner with Fandango Cine," said Fabian Castro, Vice President, Multicultural Marketing, Universal Pictures. "Hispanic moviegoers have long championed and embraced this signature franchise from the studio and we're excited to offer Fandango Cine's audience a look at creative materials well in advance of the film's arrival in theaters on Memorial Day."
"Fandango Cine will be a one-stop destination for Hispanic movie fans, who stream more movie-related content than the rest of the U.S. population and over-index as moviegoers," said Paul Yanover, President of Fandango. "With our partners at Telemundo, we will provide the best-of-breed movie-related video programming, along with a seamless ticketing experience at the widest choice of theaters available online and on mobile."
In 2012, Fandango enjoyed its best year in the company's 12-year history, with record highs in ticket sales, web and mobile traffic, and app downloads. In the same year, Telemundo.com was the most engaging Spanish-language web site for Latinos in the U.S. and the second best for video streams in 2012, according to comScore.

Charlie Riedel, Associated Press
ST. LOUIS — A U.S. government report says the nation's corn growers should have banner production this year despite lesser acreage devoted to the grain. But corn prices later in the year may suffer a bit.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture released Friday its first World Agricultural Supply and Demand Estimates report of the year.
The report estimates that corn producers will harvest 165.3 bushels of corn per acre, up 6.5 bushels from the previous year. Corn acreage is expected to slip to 91.7 million acres, from 95.4 million acres.
The report is the USDA's best guess of agricultural expectations, and weather events might dramatically change the forecasts.
The season-average price for corn was forecast lower, ranging from $3.85 and $4.55 per bushel. It was $4.50 to $4.80 a year earlier.
