2. 01-08-04 Study: Danger from Farmed Salmon (CBC News)
   "Eating too many farm-raised salmon is potentially dangerous, according to a new study, probably because they're being given contaminated feed."
   
   "People should not consume more than a few meals of farm salmon every month, warn the researchers, who looked at hundreds of fish from around the world."
   
   "The levels of toxins found in farmed salmon are about 10 times higher than in species from the wild, according to the scientists who worked on the study. Although salmon raised in northern Europe is ranked as the most dangerous, given the global nature of the industry they said the warning is universal." 1-04

3. -01-14-09 Peanut Butter Linked to Salmonella Outbreak (CNN News)
   "Health officials in Minnesota have said that salmonella they linked to an open container of King Nut peanut butter was the same strain of bacteria responsible for the apparently ongoing outbreak, which has infected at least 425 people in 43 states."
   
   "However, the King Nut product is unlikely to be responsible for the entire outbreak, since it distributes its peanut butter only to food service companies in just seven states: Ohio, Minnesota, Michigan, North Dakota, Arizona, Idaho and New Hampshire."
   
   "So, the Peanut Corporation of America said it was voluntarily recalling all peanut butter produced in its Blakely plant "out of an abundance of caution." Some of it is distributed to another company." 01-09

5. -12-10-04 Contractors Contradict Rumseld's Excuse for No Armor (USA Today)
   "President Bush said he understood the troops' concerns and has told military families that 'we're doing everything we possibly can to protect your loved ones.' "
   
   "A day earlier, he [Rumsfeld] had called it 'a matter of physics, not a matter of money ... It's a matter of production and the capability of doing it.' But spokesmen for two companies making armor for vehicles said Thursday they had offered to step up the pace of production:"
   
   • "Former Republican congressman Matt Salmon of Arizona, a spokesman for ArmorWorks in Tempe, Ariz., said his company will finish a $30 million contract with the Pentagon this month to make 1,500 armor kits for Humvees. 'We are at 50% capacity, and we could do a lot more,' he said. 'They are aware of it.' "
   
   • "Armor Holdings of Jacksonville told the Army last month it could add armor to as many as 550 trucks a month, up from 450, said Robert Mecredy of its aerospace and defense group. 'We're prepared to build 50 to 100 vehicles more per month,' he said."
   
   "[Army Lt. Gen. Steven] Whitcomb said the military is about 2,000 short of having 8,100 heavily protected Humvees sought by commanders in Iraq but is adding about 400 a month."
   
   "In contrast to the upbeat Pentagon assessment, the House Armed Services Committee reported that only about 1,100 medium and heavy U.S. military trucks out of some 9,000 in the Iraq and Afghanistan regions have proper protection for their cabs." 12-04

7. Perricone: Prescription for Aging Beautifully (Oprah.com)
   "Inflammation is at the basis of age-related diseases such as heart disease, diabetes, cancer, auto immune disease, and wrinkled, sagging skin. The wrong foods—such as sugar, processed foods, pasta, breads, pastry and baked goods—can increase levels of the pro-inflammatory peptides."
   
   "Sugar is the number one enemy. It causes inflammation that destroys our bodies and attaches to collagen, which results in stiff, inflexible, sagging skin. Controlling our blood sugar level and insulin levels will improve our health and give us beautiful, youthful skin."
   
   "The anti-inflammatory diet consists of high quality protein, like that found in fish, colorful fresh fruits and vegetables, and adequate amounts of good fat, like that found in salmon, flax, nuts, seeds and olive oil." 12-05

8. -01-17-09 FDA: Don't Eat Peanut Butter (MSNBC News)

9. Study: Fish and Mercury (CNN News)
   "Having mercury levels that are too high isn't someone else's problem. In a recent study from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, one out of 17 women of childbearing age in the United States has mercury in her blood above the level that could pose a risk to a developing fetus (5.8 micrograms per liter). So the federal government advises pregnant women and those thinking of becoming pregnant to avoid certain fish, such as shark, swordfish and fresh tuna, usually found in fish markets and sushi. Canned tuna seems to be less of a threat, but the U.S. Department of Agriculture says consumption should be limited."
   
   "Why avoid these kinds of fish? According to Andrew Heyes, a scientist with the Smithsonian Environmental Research Center, Edgewater, Maryland, the older and larger the fish, the more mercury it has stored. 'As it grows older, it can't eliminate mercury as fast as it takes it in," he says. 'So there's an accumulation in the fish.' " Safer fish are salmon, cod, tilapia, and haddock. 04-09
