Do you know where I can find a Grappa with a hand blown glass airplane inside the bottle?
Question by Gina Q: Do you know where I can find a Grappa with a hand blown glass airplane inside the bottle?
I have seen one in the window of a Manhattan liquor store, but I cannot recall where. Has anyone seen it? A grappa bottle with glass grapes inside may help, because I just need the stopper (which my husband has broken!!!)
I know you can get them from AA duty free, but you have to be flying.

Do you know how much lead is in your household?
Question by Amy L: Do you know how much lead is in your household?
Despite phasing out lead in gas in 1973, removing it from residential house paint in 1978, and outlawing lead-laden paint in chldren’s toys, we’re still threatened by lead in many consumer products.
Dishware, jewelry, glue stick caps, vinyl backpacks, children’s ceramic tea sets — there are many items with lead content not on any federal recall list your family may be exposed to. The recent toy recalls have pushed the issue back into view, but is the general public paying attention?
Do you know the symptoms? Have you contacted the federal government to press for federally administered, 3rd party safety testing and inspection? Have you ever had your kids tested to see what their levels are?
The December issue of Consumer Reports is a good place to start if you’d like to learn more about this silent threat to our families.
“Rationality Personified,” I pray to God you don’t have any children in your household. I do when my young grandson is visiting, and the question — and my concern — stems from contact in the average household, not power plants.

Question by spiderb: during the design stage of an electrical installation why do i need to know prospective earth fault current?
Best answer:
Answer by Jeremy D
You would need to know the available fault current of the system in order to properly rate the electrical components. Most all types of electrical switchgear have a fault current interrupting capacity rating. All components must have an interrupting capacity of at least as high as the available fault current.

Here are The recall sympoms, questions, and answers for any one who wants to know.?
Question by : Here are The recall sympoms, questions, and answers for any one who wants to know.?
. What exactly is covered by the Menu Foods Recall and for what timeframe?
The recall is limited to “cuts and gravy” style pet food in cans and foil pouches produced on specific dates and times between December 3, 2006, and March 6, 2007 in two of Menu’s plants. The recall affects 42 brands of cat food and 53 brands of dog food. In order to determine whether cat and dog food that your pet consumed is subject to recall, you should refer to the list of brand names on this website.
2. What should I do if I think my pet may have consumed the recalled product?
If your pet is exhibiting any signs of kidney failure please contact your veterinarian as soon as possible. Symptoms include loss of appetite, vomiting, weakness, disorientation and changes in water consumption and urination. If you suspect that you have fed the recalled pet food to your cat or dog, save any remaining pet food and the can or pouch. Open cans or pouches may be double-bagged in sealable plastic and kept in the freezer.
3. Who is going to pay my vet bills for sickness and death?
If Menu Foods product is the cause of sickness or death, Menu Foods will take responsibility. Menu has engaged a professional firm to manage your concerns and is currently contacting concerned pet owners who have reached our call center. Specific direction will be received from these individuals. Please keep copies of all your vet records and receipts for pet food purchases as well as vet bills.
4. What do I do if I have pet food that has been recalled?
Please return it to the retailer for a refund.
5. Will I be reimbursed for the food that I return to the retailer even if my pet did not get sick?
Yes, if it is a valid product that is subject to the recall.
6. How do I know if the food I bought has been recalled?
The information is contained on this website. Not all date codes are subject to recall so please fully check the information on your can or pouch. The information on the website is organized by cat or dog then by brand and description. None of the traditional “loaf” style products are subject to this recall.
7. I can’t get through to the 1-866 numbers. What is going on?
We apologize for the delay in answering every call; we were simply overwhelmed by the volume of calls. Menu has retained a series of interconnected call centers throughout North America. Even with many regional centers running simultaneously we have not been able to answer every call. As we announced in a press release on March 19, 2007, we have taken steps to significantly upgrade our call centers to handle the volume and we have added this Frequently Asked Questions (“FAQ”) section to our website to provide more information.
8. I feed my pet dry food. Is dry pet food safe?
Menu Foods only manufactures wet pet food in cans and foil pouches. Dry pet food is not part of the Menu Foods recall.
9. I’m just not sure if my dog or cat had any of the food that is being recalled. They act fine and don’t appear to have any symptoms. Should I be worried?
As always, remain alert for any changes in your pet’s health.
10. Are there other ways my pet might get sick and show similar symptoms?
Yes – antifreeze ingestion, certain rodenticides and some medications. Certain lilies have been shown to cause kidney failure if consumed by cats. Grapes have been reported to cause kidney failure in dogs and may affect cats. Physical damage from trauma and cancerous conditions can also cause kidney damage.
11. Has Menu Foods begun contacting consumers about claims?
The professional team hired by Menu began contacting consumers on Thursday March 23, 2007. This team worked through the weekend in an effort to get to as many people as possible. In order to assist in our efforts to contact these concerned pet owners as quickly as possible we ask that those who have already reached us to refrain from repeat calls.
12. Is there a time that it is easiest to get through to the 1-866 number?
The best time to get through to a representative is between 4pm and 11pm EST when the call volume is at its lowest point in the day.
I know its not a question, but I felt nice enough to give up 15pionts for giving all the information you guys wanted. Please appreciate it. Not everyone is as nice as me.
If you need the lists, click an my image and go in my profile. Go under “questions asked” , and you will find the rest of the information, one for dogs, and one for cats.

Thanks that was very informative. I hope everyone who has questions about the recall reads this – there seem to be a lot of people who are panicking and assuming that if their pets are ill it must be the food!
