Another possible recall.
Thanks for posting that info. That is a terrible thing.

I just caught the tail end of this story yesterday on the local news. I'm not sure if it is a full recall or just a warning but there is a hazard with some type of Simplicity baby basinets and cribs. I guess the area is too large for standards and the childs head can get stuck and suffocate in the mattress. I haven't had the opportunity to research and find out the full details but just jotted down what I could quickly.
As I recall
what is normal is to begin visits to OB/GYN when menstruation begins.

Girls start menstruating at the average age of 12. However, girls can begin menstruating as early as 8 years of age or as late as 16 years of age.

not that i recall, curious, is this
a case in your family or on a report you did?
What peanut recall?
So guess I'm good to go.

I suppose that's what I get for turning off the news because sick of petty politics. Something really important and I miss it. HA HA HA

But I'm still here and breathing. My only peanut item I eat is natural peanut butter.
Don't want to be rude, but I don't recall mentioning
makeup, fingernail polish or the like. He also takes a shower daily because he likes to smell nice. Don't know what kind of soap he likes and really don't care.  I'm just very proud that I raised a man who takes pride in his appearance and wants to smell nice for his lady.
An Analogy: The Pet Food Recall
Most if not all of you have by now heard of the massive pet food recall due to wheat gluten used in canned/pouch pet food that came from China.  I wasn't affected becuase I stick to dry foods, and because of health problems I have to feed my animals a very good product by Natura called California Natural - they use very few ingredients and what they use is human grade.  I went to their web site and they have a video about the pet food recall.  Turns out the company involved in the recall, Menu Foods, does make some of their canned products - I was not happy hearing this since I have such faith in them - but since Natura does not use wheat gluten in any of their food none of the recalled stuff affected theirs and anyway theirs is made in another Menu Foods plant location from the one with the Chinese wheat gluten.  But it doesn't stop there.  For now they are sending their own quality control person the plant that does produce food for them, and they are going to look into purchasing a plant of their own to produce the canned/pouch foods here in the US.  Also, from now on they will only use ingredients that are from the US.  Looks like they are doing the right thing.
From what I recall from my banking days -
It sounds like you had overdraft protection in place, which means the bank will cover the checks (usually up to a certain amount), but you will owe them fees. They have cleared those checks. No one outside of the bank has any idea there was not enough money in the account to cover them. Be very, very glad you had that service in place! Otherwise, you would owe a lot of money to each person you wrote a check to and could have been put on a list where they will not accept checks from you. Right now I would say to contact the bank to ask about paying off those fees with them.
Royal Canin - recall
Some Royal Canin foods have been recalled, including dry dog foods.

http://www.royalcanin.us/recalled.html

My sister's dogs started having same symptoms you are describing about 1 month before the recall became known, and switching the food fixed the problem. She never looked into whether it was a recalled food, for some reason.

I would put hte puppy back on his original food and then slowly introduce a new food that does not contain any of the problem ingredients. There was a recent thread about foods that are safe.


You do know about the recall on wetting solution
that is causing blindness for contact wearers? I do not know the name of it but can probably google. By the way, I have heard using honey can alleviate allergies. I just heard that now, but worth a try if I had them.
sorry but I don't recall asking for personal opinion
no offense, but I was just asking those with experience on the subject.
It was a peanut butter recall.

Nutro Dry Cat Food Recall
On 05/21/2009, a recall was issued for various varieties of Nutro dry cat food.  This is for all 50 states and I believe 11 countries.  Please check the FDA website for recall information in case links are not allowed here.    The food has excess zinc and not enough potassium. 
As I recall, MOST of my family's photos were
awkward! Maybe I should just send them all of our entire albums!

You do know Royal Canin is on recall list, right??

Hard to recall, probabably 10-15 pounds -sm
in my first pregnancy, was borderline pre-eclamsia, BP was jumping all about at the end, lots of water weight. Daughter ended up being induced as they did not want to take any chances. Did not have that issue the 2nd time.
Yes, recalled in 2007. This is a new recall, May, 2009. sm

Nutro was recalled during the huge 2007 pet food recalls.  This is a new 2009 recall involving the premix formulation in some of their dry cat food.  I use Wellness, Nature's Variety, and Newman's Own canned cat foods.


Actually, I recall my brother and cousin being drafted for Vietnam
and they served 18 month "tours". They were actually in the army longer, but were in Vietnam for 18 months when they were drafted. I'm sure they would have rather not done that extra 6 months!

My father, his brother, and their contemporaries in World War II, however, were drafted for "the duration". They weren't coming home until the war was over. My dad said it was one heck of an incentive to fight hard. It makes me cry to think of my gentle, kind father in that situation.
Thanks, so scary
I put my cats in the powder room with their blanket in the inner part of the house. I watched TV and was ready to join them as soon as I was told to take cover as was being told to people just down I-75 from me. Like I said, rotation 2 miles away and that is too close for me. Live on a high hill and last year tornado touched down in exactly the same place where rotation was today. Hope I have missed the bullet for this time. There has been damage though in my state from a tornado today. Thanks, I was praying also.
A scary day for NY

Yes, it's very scary (sm)
I remember when the study came out in a health magazine back in the ྖs. I found this link, which tells more of the story than I remember from the health magazine article.

http://www.all-natural.com/microwa1.html

I've been told I'm an alarmist (even a whacko!)....so I don't really talk about these things very much. My own family doesn't believe in much of this either, and I won't go into it here in great detail. But let me just say this:

The best thing to do is to be informed, and then each of us can make the decisions for ourselves, of what we put into our bodies, or on it, etc.

For myself, I do not to use a microwave.

I do not buy genetically modified food, if I know what it is, and can help it, that is. Corn is the scariest thing out there right now, that's in so many different foods/drinks:


http://www.truefoodnow.org/shoppersguide/guide_printable.html#baking

I buy organic food and non-hormone and non-antibiotic meats, non-irradiated as well.

I use only biodegradable household cleaners, nothing toxic.

I do not use flouride toothpaste or antibiotics that are fluoroquinolones.

I do not to use a deodorant that has aluminum in it.

I will not have any vaccinations that have mercury in them.

I now get only porcelain fillings, no more amalgam (silver, mercury). It's on my wish list to get all the old mercury out of my mouth, and I've been doing it slowly.

I also stay out of the sun, because I have fair skin, and skin cancer runs in my family.

I try to make as many healthy choices as I can.

Like I said, though, all we can do is inform ourselves. Find out everything you can on things that may be poisoning us, without our even knowing it. Then choose how you go about living your life.


yep very very scary

I was born in the 50s...so I'm old enough to BE your mother *snickers*  *winks@U*


In my opinion, this country slowly but surely is becoming a dictatorship....I'm just glad my kid is an adult now and I don't have to face these Gardisil issue(s), until she has children of her own.  And if she has a girl - I'm against that mandatory thing......


if we raise our girls right, we can cut down on these problems.  I raised mine right and she waited...and listened....I think I just lucked out....but I didn't stop talking and still don't...*laughs*


and on her myspace page she has put me as Her Hero....*flattered* and *humbled* by this kid!!!  We have a great relationship, something I didn't have with my own mother...(though had it with my father and is probably why I didn't have it with my mother, and they remained married for 48 hours until her death....) 


My Dad was THE BEST!  They don't make 'em like they made 'em in the beginning of the prior century....I always told him.  He died a couple of years ago, I miss him badly...I never did miss my mother...oh that's not entirely true - I missed her growing up while she was alive...(her social life was more important than her kids, the post WWII moms, some of them were like this....)


Keep The Faith is what I think.....


me too - it is scary, isn't it? (sm)
We have had our money split up for severaal years. In fact my husband recently bought a $7,000 boat without even discussing it with me :(
that is scary
I'm glad you had the dogs there with you - I too never lock my doors - also living in a rural area. I have dogs also. . but I may start locking my doors when I am alone. .
Scary isn't it?
I don't have any advice for you, but I have an 11 year old son. Found out that lots of kids in his MIDDLE SCHOOL are having sex, drinking, smoking, and using drugs. This is in a 'supposedly good' school in a suburb of Atlanta. There is also some gang activity. I will be homeschooling him starting this fall.

I am so sorry to hear of your problems with your daughter. I hope that someone here is able to offer you some sound advice. I know that it is not a good feeling to have someone living in your house whom you feel you cannot trust.
Not scary now, on TV, but REALLY scary in the
Best line:

"I think we're gonna need a bigger boat."
He is scary sometimes...sm
I have told my mom on more than one occasion he is not right in the head. I think he has mental issues. He does not demonstrate normal behavior at all.
I agree his girlfriend can sew it back on. You know what is funny is his girlfriend doesn't know how he REALLY is. He hides that side of himself. My mom said one day it will come out and she will see him for who he really is.
He thinks nothing of calling one time right after another if you don't answer the phone and will ride by and spy on you to see if you are home or just not answering the phone. My mom did have to threaten to call 911 one night though cause he was on her front porch banging on the windows and the walls and crying and yelling to let him in please. She had to threaten to call 911 before he would leave.
Can you say insane?!
You got it!!! I am so real, it's scary *LOL*

And I never tried to push my upbringing/religion onto anybody ever in life and now I'm not into organized religion but very into G_D!  And I would never push my ways down anyone else's gullet.


 



very scary indeed - (I used to live in AZ)....no msg

I think the scary thing about #2 is - sm
not so much that the ad is out there, but that it will probably get a ton of responses.  The Internet is a wonderful and very frightening tool. 
Vegas scary?
My husband and I visit all the time- he has nights when he goes where he wants and I go where I want- I love the shows, he does not- we split up and OMG, I am a woman all by myself out on the streets of Vegas… I am scaring myself! People are all over the streets day and night- I feel completely safe, probably safer than in my home town. Why scare someone??
scary games
They are so much fun though. I really really like them. I am on a community now online called There.. Kind of like a visit chat community.. almost a game for me.. Meet a lot of nice people.
How scary! Big hugs to you. sm

Take a deep breath, say the Serenity Prayer, Let Go and Let God, make sure you are taking care of yourself by eating and getting the rest you need.  That's what Al-Anon has taught me and it has served me well. 


This is scary. How could they be so careless? nm

Wow . . . that is shocking and very scary.
Our school district has an exception to the medication policy for children carrying asthma inhalers, where paperwork is completed in advance and kept on file.
Can tell you that Ambien is a little scary
my daughter was prescribed it and she did very bizarre things in her sleep that she has no recollection of - covered the entire bathroom floor with an entire box of tissues very neatly, sat down to go to the bathroom without pulling down her pajamas, walked into other people's rooms and did strange things.  Jack Nicholason said he nearly drove off a cliff on Ambien. 
Scary! Thanks for sharing because
now I'm going to be on high alert. Thank God you caught it when you did! BTW, which company are you talking about that might have been an inside job? I'm hoping it's not one I have an account with! :0)
Pretty scary, isn't it?

I just don't know how much worse this nation must get before it is worse that Sodom and Gommorah.  Those cities must have been wicked beyond compare.  Part of me says "Wait just a little longer, Lord" but another, ever increasing part of me says "Come even so Lord Jesus."


OH MY GOSH! how scary.
when i picked up those 2 guys, i was raging mad at my employer and in one of those "i don't care" states of mind. another time when i passed a decent looking guy in a hospital parking lot, i ignored the bad feeling i had, and he tried to kidnap and rape me. so maybe our "senses" don't always clue us in, but when they do, we need to LISTEN!!
Can you name 3 meds that don't come with scary waringing?

You think that is scary; read the contract
that the parents had to sign, make sure to read the numbered portion. Now tell me, what type of parent would allow their child to do this? Digusting. I will definitely not be watching this garbage.

They should have responded sooner. How scary!

Yes, those Batman movies sure are scary.

They ARE amazing, aren't they? Definitely scary - (sm)
when you're indoors.... so much banging, rattling, stuff falling, etc. But if you're lucky enough to be outdoors, as I was during the 1989 Loma Prieta quake (7.1 on the Richter), it's totally awe-inspiring. I was getting ready to wash my truck, and was carrying a bucket of soapy water across the yard. Suddenly the trees started shaking, and I thought a sudden breeze had come up on what had been a quiet, muggy day. Then I saw that the barn was swaying back and forth, and realized it was a quake. A few steps further, and it really started rolling. Had to hang onto the side of the truck to remain standing. Giant redwood trees were whipping back and forth so far that the tops of them were almost horizontal. We had a large pasture in front of the property for horses, and there were large waves in the ground, moving up and down with more than a foot and a half of vertical displacement. I couldn't help but laugh... it was pretty funny. Interestingly, all the horses turned and stood facing in exactly the direction of the epicenter. Once it stopped & I could let go of the truck, I ran into the landlord's backyard to look at the pool. The waves were big enough to surf on.

A friend of mine who lived up in the Santa Cruz mountains was driving down a long, steep, straight road when the quake hit, and she actually saw a big wave in the pavement (the primary, or P-wave) coming straight at her. She stopped and rode it out in the truck.

Another, very LUCKY friend, had been driving on I-880, and had just emerged from the covered section of freeway that collapsed when the quake hit, so wasn't caught in that awful disaster. He said it was weird... felt like he had a front flat tire, so he stopped on the side of the freeway to check his tires. As did several hundred other people! Imagine the whole freeway stopping, and everyone looking at their tires.... a 'Chinese fire drill', California-style.

My mom lives directly on top of the epicenter of the Northridge quake of ྚ. It was a very sharp vertical quake, and it literally threw her out of her bed, lengthwise. Good thing, because the bookshelf/headboard part of the bed fell over and landed where her head had been on the pillow.

I lived down there during the 1971 Sylmar quake, and I was trying to stay in my bed while it bucked like a bronco. My sister was in the bathroom hanging onto the sink & screaming. We had a jillion aftershocks from that one, which were more unnerving than the original quake. Every time we had an aftershock, another of my sisters started hyperventilating. That night, my parents were having the floor measured for new carpets. The poor contractor doing the measurements was so rattled by the shocks, not to mention everyone screeching and running out of the house when they hit, that he measured everything wrong, and the carpet they brought didn't fit. So a couple weeks later he had to come back and do it all over again. I was in Jr. College back then, and had a part-time job working at a stable. After the quake, when the sun came up I went up to the stables for work that day, and it was too dangerous to clean stalls with the horse in there during the aftershocks, so I had to take each horse out and put it in a corral while I cleaned the stall. Took me forever! I was up there all alone all day, and wasn't really worried, 'til I sat down on the ground to sharpen a pair of animal clippers. THAT'S when I realized that the ground was continually moving all the time.... jiggling very faintly, sort of like Jello. That's what got me feeling spooked.

Another time, I think in the 80's, when I was at work we had a long, not-that-strong, rolling quake. I was in the basement using the copy-machine at the time. I'd had a migraine that day and had just taken Fiorinal for it, which made me feel a little strange sometimes. While at the copy machine, I was feeling really dizzy and strange, and hearing strange creaking noises. I'm thinking, 'Wow... I don't feel so hot!' The rolling continued, and I felt kind of nauseous. Tried not to look at the light in the copier, which has triggered migraines in me in the past. Noticed lots of people standing in the doorway to the Medical Records dept. and Radiation Oncology, and my foggy brain wondered why they were all taking their break at the same time. Still felt sick, and decided that if I didn't feel better within the hour, that I would go home to bed. Right about then, (with the floor still rolling), someone commented to me on how nonchalantly I was copying away during an earthquake! I was actually relieved to learn that's what the problem was, and not a reaction to the medication! :D
but remember, back then that WAS scary. LOL. sm
I remember going with my friend to a matinee and when the shark came up onto the back of the boat, we both of us pulled our feet up on the seat. LOL.
Scary - you gotta be kidding
Lol - that's the most ridiculous thing I've read thus far. Scary?? Well, I guess most of the men around the world are scary then - ha?
So glad to hear that! They are scary to watch! nm

Labyrinthitis - I've had it sev times - it is scary - you just need (sm)
some seasick med most likely. It is an inner ear infection - doesn't usually cause pain but causes the symptoms you have. don't worry - almost guaranteed that is what it is! See your doc for probably Meclizine and maybe a decongestant, maybe even antibiotics.
that is the scary thing - lets face it -
I have lived well over half my life and reading the obituaries (I have no idea why I do this) I see younger and younger people - 50s, early 60s - dying all the time.  What my daughter apparently doesn't realize is that I might not have 10 years left - actually she should - a 52-year-old woman that worked with her father-in-law recently collapsed at work - died later at hospital of AAA - very little symptoms. 
Ha ha...that's pretty funny...well, and kind of scary:-) nm
