Personally, I think lighter colors look good! (and also make your teeth look whiter), Light pink or blue, light purple or green. 🙂 Test them all out…

Apple announces iPad 2 – parody
This video is a parody of announcement of iPad 2, I guess it will be pretty obvious I’m not exactly Apple fan. I don’t mind Apple over-pricing things, I mind that people are actually buying them, these products could be so much cheaper if you would let Apple know that you won’t pay for stupid cable. The other things which I don’t like is how they reinventing things, their products are not that great, only reason why they’re selling them is because of the apple on the back. Also that “new” design, I understand it is slimmer, I got that, but that’s not a new design, it would be new design if it was a hexagon or something like this, something that I can easily spotted. You know like classical dell laptop has different design from macBook, something like that. Personally I also don’t like when things are too easy so everyone can use it, I think that for some things you should still have a bit of skill. That’s why I use PC, yeah things are more difficult but I always have plenty of choices. I wonder how many people won’t read this description … well enjoy this video. You can check original video here: www.youtube.com Personally I’ve spent like 3 hours watching that official iPad announcement, first time because I wanted to rage, second time because I was writing this parody and third time it was for different bits to put my parody together from visual side. Oh and if you would have problem how Vol Jang (green troll, if you are not familiar with TrollsNews) walking, just …

Colander/Strainer
They have holes in the bottom to allow water to run through – why though do they not have holes right to the edge of the base……water is always left there so one can never really have things strained properly.

Q&A: Do you consider the failure of the New Orleans levee to be a disaster or an opportunity?
Question by Me, Too: Do you consider the failure of the New Orleans levee to be a disaster or an opportunity?
A noted economist stated that Katrina “did more to solve the problems in New Orleans than anything else could.” Another political personage stated that, while man could not solve the problem of New Orleans, “God did!”
By this, they were talking of the dispersal of a million poor Blacks gathered into one area, with high crime rates, dilapidated public housing and all of the problems associated with poverty. So, the question is, could the delay in helping these people return to New Orleans be connected to the “opportunities” these people discussed? Since the public housing has been torn down and new housing for the poor almost nonexistent in New Orleans, do you think this delay has been deliberate? Will the poor Blacks of New Orleans ever be able to return to their city, or will opportunists take advantage of this prime real estate and change the face of New Orleans forever?

It was a wakeup call that the city is below sea level and didn’t need to be there in the first place.

FDA Warning Letter to Merrick?
Question by ? Liberal Mutt ?: FDA Warning Letter to Merrick?
**Another recall. Just letting everyone know.**
Dear Mr. Merrick:
On December 2, 2009, FDA collected a sample of Merrick Beef Filet Squares manufactured by your Plainview, Texas facility and repackaged by your Hereford, Texas facility. Analysis of this dog chew revealed the product to be contaminated with Salmonella meleagridis. Representatives of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) conducted inspections of your pet treat manufacturing facility located at 901 County Rd Y, Plainview, Texas 79073, on December 29-31, 2009, and your pet treat packaging facility located at 1977 E US Highway 60, Hereford, Texas 79045 on December 28-29,2009 and on January 13-14, 2010. These inspections confirmed that you offered pet treats for sale as food that were adulterated within the meaning of section 402(a)(1) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the Act), 21 U.S.C. 342(a)(1) and 402(a)(4) of the Act, 21 U.S.C. 342(a)(4). You can find the Act and its associated regulations on the Internet through links on the FDA web page at www.fda.qov.
Pet treats bearing or containing Salmonella spp., including Salmonella meleagridis, a known animal and human pathogen posing an acute danger to human and or animal health, are considered adulterated within the meaning of section 402(a)(1) of the Act, 21 U.S.C. 342(a)(1). A food, including food for animals, is adulterated within the meaning of section 402(a)(4) of the Act, 21 U.S.C. 342(a)(4), if it has been prepared, packed or held under insanitary conditions whereby it may have become contaminated with filth or may have been rendered injurious to health. Our inspections revealed that the manufacturing processes used by your firm to manufacture pet treats are not controlled and that contamination of these products may occur through inadequate treatment or through recontamination of the treated products due to improper storage or handling after processing.
Specifically, your firm could not provide evidence that your manufacturing processes eliminate pathogens such as Salmonella during processing because your firm does not consistently monitor critical factors in the process such as time and temperature; nor could you provide evidence demonstrating that recontamination was not likely to occur post-processing. Further, your firm could not provide evidence supporting the adequacy of your in-house sampling and testing program, for example, explaining the location and number of samples collected for each lot of finished product.
We recognize that your firm initiated a voluntary recall of Merrick Beef Filet Squares by letter to your customers dated January 11, 2010. The recall was initiated following FDA sampling and your firm’s internal sampling, both of which revealed the presence of Salmonella. However, your recall strategy may be determined to be ineffective to the consumer level for the following reasons:
• Your firm delayed your public communication to alert consumers who may have the recalled product in their possession until after FDA issued an FDA Health Alert on January 14, 2010.
• Your recall communications to distributors, retailers, and consumers only included case lot coding 9323, which was different from the lot coding on some of the individual bags. Due to a labeling error, some of the affected bags were coded with the lot code 9333.
• Your recall letter did not identify the hazard involved. Your letter to wholesale and retail consignees indicated the product was recalled because it “may not have been processed properly.” Recalls can be less effective if the recall communication does not concisely explain the reason for recall and the hazard involved.
FDA acknowledges the written responses we have received following our inspections. Separate letters, both dated January 18, 2010, were received addressing the observations made during the inspections we conducted at your locations in Plainview and Hereford, Texas. Although your letters indicate that your firm has taken steps to address our observations, they did not contain enough detail for us to evaluate. For example, your response letters did not include a copy of your validation protocol. We recommend that your validation study, in addition to establishing a specific profile for each dryer, also account for process and product variation including fat content, initial product temperature, and product size and location. We also recommend validation of your rework process. The corrections your firm has implemented at both sites will be evaluated and verified during our next inspection. We also acknowledge your letter of January 29, 2010, discussing your views on the applicability of the Reportable Food Registry to this situation.
You should respond in writing within 15 working days from your receipt of this letter. Your response should outline the specific steps you are taking to correct these violations. You should include in your response, documentation and useful information t
that would assist us in evaluating your corrections. If you cannot complete all corrections before you respond, you should explain the reason for your delay and state when you will correct any remaining violations.
Your written reply should be directed to the Food and Drug Administration, 4040 North Central Expressway, Suite 300, Dallas, Texas 75204, Attention: Sherrie L. Krolczyk, Compliance Officer.
Sincerely,
/S/
Reynaldo R. Rodriguez, Jr.
