Recent study of U.S. government provides the latest evidence of a systematic cover-up of the health toll from pollution after the 9/11 disaster, which doctors fear will cause more deaths than the attacks themselves. Belfast Telegraph says, The Bush administration suppressed evidence of increasing danger and officially announced that the air around the felled buildings was "safe to breathe". But results of the government study, conducted by a consortium of researchers at Mount Sinai School of Medicine, Columbia University, New York University, Johns Hopkins University, The University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey, and the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill, show exposure-related increases in new-onset cough, wheeze, shortness of breath, and bronchial hyper reactivity

Most modern synthetic cleaning products are based on age-old formulas using natural ingredients that were passed down through the generations because the chemistry was right.

Mix and match with well-chosen and environmentally friendly green cleaning products found in health food stores, and you can easily and simply transform your home into a non-toxic and healthy haven.Non-toxic cleaning can give you a deep feeling of gratification in knowing that your family’s health is protected, and that your home is a place for your bodies to rest and recuperate rather than promote harm.Making your own nontoxic cleaning k

The Cornucopia Institute has filed a legal complaint with the US Department of Agriculture (USDA), demanding that the agency enforce the organic regulations prohibiting toxic solvents from being used in the production of organic food. The Institute found that baby formula and other food manufacturers are using hexane -- extracted omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids (DHA/ARA) -- derived from algae and soil fungus.
Through a Freedom of Information request at the FDA, Cornucopia also discovered that algal- and fungal-based DHA/ARA have been linked to serious side effects such as virulent diarrhea and vomiting in infants, many of whom required medical treatment and hospitalization.
“The federal organic regulations very clearly prohibit these oils in organic foods, so this is not a case of comp

Researchers are alarmed by the harm Chinese products may cause to Algerian school children. Many notebooks made in China have been proven to be toxic and too dangerous for health with a possibility to cause cancer. When will this industrial madness stop?Not only can Chinese products be hazardous but they also can constitute a major risk to public health and welfare. Anything Chinese in Algeria is disposable: alarm clocks break in a matter of weeks, umbrellas tear apart within days, shoes 'go all smiles' after a few steps, etc.I have nothing against China; I just can't accept risky products to be shipped all over the world for the sake of profit-making.If you want to cash in lots of money, at least make sure that your products are good.

I am often asked if the "toxicity of plastics" is a valid concern... Plastics are critical to our health, safety and protection of our resources. When used in medical, transport, manufacturing, etc... plastics are a vital to the continued success and development of our future. But, certain plastics in food, buildings and disposable consumer products are not just toxic and dangerous (to people and the planet) but also deplete the finite limit to the same "vital" plastics that are essential to our future. IF plastics were regulated on a "risk scale of sustainable use"... "problem plastics", currently contributing to our toxic disposable cocktail of consumer use products, would be diverted to building a safer, healthier and more sustainable future. As qualitive "risk based" law wou

Why expose them to man-made chemicals before their immune systems have a chance to adapt to life in our toxic world.Does it seem a little excessive to buy organic clothing? Read about the chemicals incorporated into fabrics and clothing here. Flame retardants, pesticides, and formaldehyde are just a few examples of the chemicals in non-organic clothing. Decide if you would like to give your baby a non-toxic start. Organic clothing is still a new industry so the prices can be a little high. Because of the higher prices, organic baby clothing and bed linens make for excellent gifts.Colorful Organic Onesies - Kimono style, Long sleeve, bodysuit style, short sleeveKeep Baby's head warm, protect
Young girls, particularly African American girls, are hitting puberty earlier, and it's lasting for a longer time. Environmental toxins, obesity, and psychological stressors have all been cited as possible reasons.
Many girls now start to develop breasts as early as eight years old. The psychological consequences of early puberty can include depression and anxiety, eating disorders, sexual objectification, and early drug and alcohol abuse are just a few, and the physical consequences include a 50 percent higher risk of breast cancer.
Obesity is considered a major cause, as are endocrine-disrupting chemicals such as phthalates, bisphenol A, and dioxin. These chemicals are often found in cosmetics and personal care products and they are also used in pesticides.
Researchers using federal funds spread fertilizer made from human and industrial wastes on yards in poor, black neighborhoods, with the intent of testing whether it might protect children from lead poisoning in the soil. Families were assured the sludge was safe, and were never told about any harmful ingredients.
Nine families in Baltimore row houses agreed to let researchers till the sewage sludge into their yards and plant new grass. In exchange, they were given food coupons.
There is no evidence that there was ever any medical follow-up.
Have you seen about the toxic chemicals used in the baby equipment, toys and baby bottles in the news?
There is an evidence that these chemicals disrupt the endocrine system of the body (that controls the growth and hormones) and can cause the dreadful diseases like cancer.

Below - A streetlight, by Beta LED, which is being used around the country. POWER SAVER Cree's recessed L.E.D. unit uses 12 watts of energy but is comparable to a 75-watt bulb. Among the glitches overlooked with the introduction of compact fluorescents (Hello - Mercury Disposal?), Mr. Karsner said, was the color of light they produced. Compared with traditional bulbs, some compact fluorescents emitted a cold, bluish light that gave homes all the coziness of a hospital hallway. That may be changing. Attracted by the low power demands of solid-state lights, which use semiconductor materials, the Department of Energy is financing projects to overcome technical and marketing problems that have prevented the technology from successfully challenging more conventional

The people who live near Willet Dairy, a large industrial farm in New York state, are reporting health problems ranging from blistering eyelids to brain damage. Cow manure is known to release gases that, in high concentrations, are linked to those symptoms.
However, the EPA is preparing to roll back air-pollution-reporting requirements for industrial animal farms like Willet, even as environmentalists are warning that regulation is already too lax in New York.
Willet began in 1974 as a small, family-owned operation. But today, Willet spans 6,300 acres over four sites. Willet cows produced more than 157,000 tons of manure in 2006. Willet liquefies the untreated waste and pumps it into manure lagoons, as is standard practice among large-scale dairies. And there it sits, only hundreds of feet

BusinessWeek has an interesting story about Toxic Stocks: Beware These 'Toxic' Stocks Bullish noises for the market abound. Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke makes it clear that he's prepared to pull out all the stops to prevent economic collapse, and Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson is talking up broad investor-friendly reforms for market regulators. And, while still behind the fiscal curve, Congress is finally recognizing that emergency measures are needed to help alleviate homeowners' pain and to help prevent a financial catastrophe. With the close of a dismal first quarter, there hangs a faint whiff of optimism in the air over Wall Street. But a warning to investors ready to plunge into the market: Beware of land mines.

Is is not ironic, that this week after a long agonized speech by Senator Barack Obama on Race, Religion and Politics, some of us are talking crucifixion, resurrection and Easter?Well, it is that time of year and after what may be described as a bad week for his campaign can Senator Obama now move forward knowing that by taking the "bull by the horns" and addressing the "Race" issue, as a nation he has attempted to clear the 'air' on a very sensitive subject. Optimistic about what may change, even if in a limited way, I am pleased that Obama made the speech he did, even if a back-lash prove/looks politically toxic at this time. It is an uncomfortable topic for most people to talk about, but the issue cannot/should not be swept under the proverial "rug".On that note, one hopes he can continu
Since the day they were announced, our current consoles have been in a fierce battle, who will win?...is Sony doomed?, What on earth is a Wii?...and so on. But now, Greenpeace has come up with its version of console battle; who makes the greenest product? And I have to say, finally I have seen Wii lose in something.According to the article of Greenpeace.org, Sony is the current leader by both having a recycling plan and pushing for toxic free products (though PS3 is not yet one of them), despite being most power inefficient(128W when idle).Second to the throne is Microsoft. They have plans to eliminate toxic chemicals but not until 2011, 360's are currently non-recyclable. 360's power efficiency 98W when idle.I guess Nintendo is still hurting from Gamecube losses so they are trying to save
Just when you thought that you were buying nice, happy, not chemically laden, better for the earth products, here comes this news. Turns out that a study released by the Organic Consumers Association revealed a toxic carcinogenic contaminant called 1,4 Dioxane (no, I don't know why there is a comma between the numbers) is in many popular brands of body washes, dish soap, and lotions that are labeled "natural" and "organic". And up until now, the presence of this toxin in these products has been undisclosed. So no matter how good you were about checking labels for ingredients, you would never have known this was in anything. Great.Interestingly, products that were certified USDA organic did not contain this toxin, whereas many products that are not certified organic did contained it.

News today out of Kenya:
Hundreds of people near the Kenyan port of Mombasa say they have become ill after a consignment of leaking chemical containers was dumped nearby…
Nassir Rashid, the director of environment at the Mombasa Municipal Council (MMC), says samples of the chemicals have been sent to the government chemist for identification. But he says the chemicals are extremely toxic and more than 1,500 villagers have been treated for various illnesses caused by the chemicals…The chemical cargo was on its way from Mombasa port to a mining company in western Uganda when it was dumped.

In my view, there are many more "toxic" things in our world then chemicals. Sure, there are a whole host of toxic chemicals that are in our products, our air, and in our food that we need to learn more about, and protect our families from. But that is not what I am posted about today. I recently read the Packaging Girlhood: Rescuing Our Daughters from Marketers' Schemes, by Sharon Lamb and Lyn Mikel Brown. This book points out what you have to be blind to have missed-- how marketers decide what your children should be interested in, do and buy based on their gender. Just take a look at any Pottery Barn catalog or a sale flier from Toys R Us. The girls are encouraged to shop, observe, care lots about houses, food, and taking care of babies.

So lately my neck has been killing me. I’m not sure if it’s the driving or what, but I’ve got this knot in my upper back/neck area.

When you have hundreds of ballistic missiles at your deposal as Putin and Hu have, it does not take Einstein to figure out that a missile defense system is easily surmounted in a real conflict. The Pentagon tells us that it has destroyed its malfunctioning spy satellite with an interceptor missile; an SM-3 missile fired from the USS Lake Erie in the Pacific.Said the statement, "A network of land, air, sea and space-based sensors confirms that the U.S. military intercepted a non-functioning National Reconnaissance Office satellite which was in its final orbits before entering the earth's atmosphere," adding, "Confirmation that the fuel tank has been fragmented should be available within 24 hours,".This raises a question of vast military consequence; here we have the Pentagon stating that i

Is it the end of one’s perfect strike from thousand times of challenges? Or is it only the beginning from another big hit to follow? Is it the original wishes from your journey’s desires? Or is it nothing more than just a form of your manipulative perspective from the head?Sometimes, we are too deep influenced in many terms of success.

Britney Spear’s friends go in TV talk shows to discuss her private business. On New Year’s Eve we saw pics of Lindsay Lohan being passed a bottle by people knowing she was in recovery from alcohol. It’s said to have happened again on Friday, when Lindsay was spotted sipping vodka cocktails, with “friends." Hmmm…. Not exactly the kind of support I’d want from my friends.A real friend is someone you trust, who supports you and wants what’s in your best interest. Yet these pop stars can’t trust their friends to watch out for them. That certainly doesn’t bode well for their recovery from all the problems that plague them. People grab onto them for the wrong reason. Friends can become enemies fast in the world of pop stars. Toxic friends are exactly that. I do believe that bot

Toxins that we are exposed to every single day? It's not just the Mercury in vaccines.Maybe I'm just going off, Maybe this doesn't make much sense. But, what about it?

Are you a Marijuana or Cigarette smoker? Then you should betted know that Marijuana is more dangerous than Cigarettes. Recent researches shows that almost every Marijuana smokes less than Cigarette smokers. But thats not a good sign either. Researchers who compared marijuana smoke to tobacco smoke found that ammonia levels were 20 times higher in the marijuana smoke, and that hydrogen cyanide and nitrogen-related chemicals also were more prevalent in the marijuana smoke. The latter likely came from fertilizer used to grow the marijuana, which came from Canada. Unlike tobacco, however, marijuana smoke does not contain the addictive drug nicotine. New research finds that smoking three or four marijuana cigarettes a week for six years could harm lung function and destroy antioxidants that protect cells against heart disease and cancer.SO SMOKERS YOU SHOULD QUIT BOTH

Its to the point where finding another job is starting to sound like a good idea, even though in my position I should just wait it out and hope for the best. My last job I was in the same boat and I left to come to this job. But I don't have the same luxuries I did then, now. Right now my emotions are through the roof and I can't control them like I used to. I get annoyed so easily and I don't hide all the anger I feel anymore. Maybe it's funny at home but it's dangerous at work. So instead of talking to my boss because I worry about saying something I would definitely regret, I just fester with the hatred. Today I feel like
Previously, Greenpeace attacked the iPhone claiming unsafe levels of Phthalates (a toxic substance found in caulk and nail polish) and flammable construction materials, which was then counter-received by the BSEF (Bromine Science and Environmental Forum) and the iPhone was said to be researched incompletely.
Even though Apple accepted, and doesn’t completely support ‘going green’ until 2008, yet another attack comes.
This time the Center for Environmental Health (CEH) has confirmed Greenpeace’s reports of Phthalates in the iPhone, and even worse, places Apple in sites of California law because of the lack of a warning label describing the use of the chemical.
CEH’s Executive Director Michael Green (coincidence?) said: “There is no reason to have these potentially hazardous chemicals in iPhones,” and went on to say, “We expect Apple to reformulate their products to make them safer from cradle to grave, so they don’t pose a threat to
Relationships should be about helping the other person become a better version of themselves. This could come from encouragement, proactive listening, or fighting it out until a point is made. As long as there is passion, as long as you care, as long as you have a pulse there will be a reason to work it out and enrich each other’s lives. Being indifferent, not caring about the outcome, and not being affected by what the other person says, does or feels is the toxic that lacerates relationships.
Being indifferent in a relationship is a trademark sign of giving up. The passion is gone, and what’s left is a mutual comfort or beneficial living arrangement. So what can you do once you’ve reached the point of indifference? Is it really the point of no-return?
Here are a few things you can give try in order to put the spark back into your relationship.
Get some space. Take some time away from your relationship, and use that energy to get your thoughts together, and spend s
I read this on the forum of one of the golden retriever groups I belong to. I checked it out, and it is true. Pass this on to anyone you know. (Below written by a vet) This week I had the first case in history of raisin toxicity ever seen at MedVet. My patient was a 56-pound, 5 yr old male neutered lab mix that ate half a canister of raisins sometime between 7:30 AM and 4:30 PM on Tuesday. He started with vomiting, diarrhea and shaking about 1AM on Wednesday but the owner didn't call my emergency service until 7AM. I had heard somewhere about raisins AND grapes causing acute Renal failure but hadn't seen any formal paper on the subject. We had her bring the dog in immediately. In the meantime, I called the ER service at MedVet, and the doctor there was like me - had heard something about i
After receiving the recall from CPSC, local authorities in this region also started a similar recall. It seems like the case is affecting a very wide geography.
Local newspapers like Sinchew Daily has published the news, however in very small coverage and without a picture of the product. The name of the toxic is called 迷奸水 (sounds like “raping water” - very confusing) in Chinese.
I just want to share with you more detail about this recall, extracted from CPSC.
A picture of the product is provided here:

Yes, Candy Addict readers, it’s yet another attempt to find a sour candy which is sour enough for me! Toxic Waste Sour Candy Spray comes in a handy purse-pack size, and is topped with one of three removable plastic fingerpuppets: an adorable plastic mushroom cloud (aka Mr. Toxie Head aka Professor Sauernoggin), an evil scientist, or an evil rat. I was lucky enough to sample the green apple flavor (usually a good choice for sourness) thanks to Brian’s haul at the All Candy Expo. Toxic Waste sprays also come in Blue Raspberry, Cherry and Strawberry.
Candy Dynamics rate this candy as “extreme” which, after several single-pump sprays, made me wonder if my taste buds aren’t dead. Don’t get me wrong, the spray is definitely sour. Just not all that sour. There is an initial burst of sourness, and a definite green apple flavor when you first spray it. The flavor dissipates after about 5 seconds, leaving a bit of an aftertaste.
I ended up experimenting wit
Hot Sexy Babes - Hilary Duff - Lindsay Lohan - Fergie - Lucy Liu - Carmen Electra - Paris Hilton - Britney Spears - Toxic Music Video. Wow, what a lineup.:Dhttp://freemusicvideosandhotgirls.blogspot.com/
So Britney Spears' new Blackout
CD came out on Tuesday, and we haven't done a feature on it yet, which may seem
weird considering it's the most-hyped album of the year. Well, I have an excuse. I was planning to do a "Blackout For Blackout" podcast on Tuesday night,
where I did a shot during each new song and made fun of Britney's lyrics, but
it turns out my roommates are pussies and don't like to "get hammered on work
nights." Whatever.
Anyway, on to Plan B.
You may recall Britney's last album In
The Zone, which featured the smash hit "Toxic." In addition to being one of the biggest songs
of 2004, "Toxic" is also the most annoying song ever. That's not hyperbole; it truly is the musical
equivalent of nails on a chalk board. To
quote my friend Dan, "Every girl loves it, every guy hates it, especially this
guy." Now, I'm not anti-Britney. I'm fine with all her other work.

It has been known for decades that fish is a wonderful low-fat source of high quality protein, and that eating it can decrease your risk of heart attack, stroke, obesity and hypertension. Lately, however, there have been concerns that eating too much fish can cause an accumulation of methylmercury, a widely recognized pollutant, in our body's tissues. A recent study revealed some surprising findings that may allow us to have our cake (seafood) and eat it too (less concern about mercury). First some background - the methylmercury that is found in seafood comes primarily from power plants that burn fossil fuels, like coal. Then after it rains or snows, the contaminant is brought down into our rivers, streams, oceans and lakes. Fish then absorb it from the food chain in these bodies of water.
In a scathing report released Monday, environmental activism group Greenpeace said that, despite Apple's recent claims that it would assume a greener profile, the company's iPhone fell from a toxic tree. The handset, according to the group, contains several toxic substances including brominated flame retardants as well as phthalates plasticisers and chloride, both substances characteristic of PVC. Greenpeace pointed to Apple's mobile handset competitors as examples of companies doing the right thing.
Although Apple’s disputed lack of commitment to produce greener handsets was heavily criticized by Greenpeace on Monday, an Apple spokesperson said in an interview to Macworld: “Like all Apple products worldwide, iPhone complies with RoHS [Restriction of Hazardous Substances], the world’s toughest restrictions on toxic substances in electronics.”
“As we have said, Apple will voluntarily eliminate the use of PVC and BFRs by the end of 2008,” said the Apple spokesperson, referring to an open letter publicized earlier this year proclaiming Apple’s plans to completely eliminate the use of PVC and BFRs in its products by the end of 2008. There are also some plans to eliminate or reduce the use of other chemicals including Arsenic and Mercury.
Despite that, in the USA, The Center for Environmental Health on Monday said that it has given Apple 60-days legal notice — a step required by California law before a lawsuit is launched. The accusation would be based on Gre
