Answer by JB
Generally no. I don’t know of any that do. My car seat was recalled & the “fix” was ridiculous – it took my carrier style seat that pops in & out & made it completely stationary & there was no option for refund. All those crib recalls now – their fix is to make it so the rail won’t drop at all on the side (which is a BIG deal for short people because it can mean NOT being able to put a sleeping baby over the rail…) and again no refund available. They are not required to refund or exchange if they can make a fix of basically ANY kind to make it safe for use, even if it makes it less functional.

I wish it were different. It stinks when you get stuck with something that doesn’t operate the way it is supposed to, especially if it disables a feature that was KEY to why you bought it.

Did God design humans to fail? How does a perfect creator create a flawed product?

Question by The Son of Man: Did God design humans to fail? How does a perfect creator create a flawed product?

A perfect creator would create a perfect product. Given the fact that we are flawed, what other conclusion is there than that the flaw was intentional?

If you’re going to drag in free will in answer to this question, try to at least build a semi-coherent argument around it.
Kevin of Nine: it was a one-time joke response to a joke question. I didn’t mean for it to become your life motto.
Towelie: “they blew it.” > how is that perfect?

Best answer:

Answer by So-crates of R&S!!! (DelFuego)
Aha!! There is another explanation for a “perfect” Creator creating an imperfect creation.

HE ISNT PERFECT. Thus, isnt God.

Uh, Towlie – if Adam and Eve blew it, then they WERE NEVER PERFECT!

Answer by going_for_baroque
Get a real attorney. No one here will file a tort claim on her behalf. Call your local bar association and ask for a referral. You can tell them the story in one sentence and get that referral. Take care !

Religion: A History of Violence Part 5

For all of the stupid cavemen out there this is not a video praising Satan. This is to point out how evil your religion is and how if it’s real it’s the work of the devil himself. This is still just a little bit of the violence death and suffering caused by religion and faith. If your going to say that the old testament is not part of the christian faith then your either flat out stupid or you don’t read the bible like a bad Christian… I got the audio track from www.youtube.com it’s titled A Thank you Message from Satan.

Video Rating: 4 / 5

Anti-Semitic Rant By Christian Dior Designer John Galliano

Ana Kasparian and Cenk Uygur discuss an anti-semitic rant by Christian Dior designer John Galliano which included him saying “I love Hitler”.

Video Rating: 4 / 5

Haha, oh Bill, your childlike grasp of the world, and your creeper-like grasp of ladies you are not married to does make me chuckle. It’s not because I like your views, but because you make me realise just how dumb most intelligent design advocates are.

Peanut Butter recalls in USA!?

by Public Citizen

Question by Moogie: Peanut Butter recalls in USA!?

Here is a brief article on it. Others have specifically mentioned PetSmart biscuits but there is suspicion of others! I know I give my dogs peanut butter and thought others might as well and need to be made aware of this!

Federal health authorities confirmed that peanut butter and peanut paste made by a Virginia company are the sole sources of a salmonella outbreak that has sickened 486 people in 43 states.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention found that 14 institutions where people became sick had bought peanut butter made by Peanut Corp. of America, based in Lynchburg, Va. An agency analysis said many of the people who became sick nationwide had eaten prepackaged peanut-butter sandwich crackers sold under Kellogg Co.’s Austin and Keebler brands. Kellogg, which used Peanut Corp.’s ingredients, has since recalled the products.

Connecticut health investigators found an unopened five-pound container of Peanut Corp.’s peanut butter tested positive for the Salmonella Typhimurium strain involved in the outbreak. Earlier this month, Minnesota health officials found an open container of the company’s creamy peanut butter with the same strain.

In addition, Food and Drug Administration investigators found a different strain of salmonella on parts of the floor of the company’s Blakely, Ga., plant, said Stephen Sundlof, director of the agency’s Center for Food Safety and Applied Nutrition. The agency is still conducting tests at the plant, and Dr. Sundlof said any products containing peanut butter or paste made at the plant after July 1 should be recalled.

Peanut Corp. makes peanut butter that is distributed in bulk to nursing homes, schools and other institutions as well as peanut paste; both were used in dozens of products sold directly to consumers. Last week, the company recalled peanut butter and peanut paste made at its Blakely facility.

On Tuesday, PetSmart Inc. recalled seven of its Grreat Choice Dog Biscuit products that contain peanut paste made by Peanut Corp. PetSmart said it wasn’t aware of any cases of pets becoming ill from the products but has recalled them as a precautionary measure.

Peanut Corp. has since stopped production at the Blakely plant, and recalled peanut butter and a paste containing ground, roasted peanuts. So far, about 125 products have been recalled by companies that used Peanut Corp.’s ingredients.
