Kolcraft Recalls Play Yards After the Death of a 10-Month-Old Child

http://www.cpsc.gov/cpscpub/pr.....07315.html

I think all of the FDA & maybe USDA should be replaced because I don’t think they will change. They have had the same mind set for too long. Read Skittles post at 12:27 they are already approving drugs that have been around a long time. They stopped quinine & gave no reason (don’t know how many others) other than to say they are no longer making it. They are now giving restless leg meds even thou people where taking quinine because of terrible leg cramps that would go on for hours & hours does that make any sense? Two completly different problems.

Imo if pet food, human food & lead in toys & baby bibs didn’t bring the people out nothing will until it’s too late. Imo the worst is still going to happen, long term affects. I pray I as wrong as can be but I think too many people think some one else will fix the problems. I really want to be wrong.

And don’t forget the “wrinkle-resistant” clothing with the formaldehyde in.

“Alert for Poison in Clothes from China”
http://www.thisismoney.co.uk/c....._page_id=5

“…long-term exposure to high levels can be harmful, causing problems ranging from minor skin rashes to some types of cancer.

Tests discovered formaldehyde concentrations up to 900 times above the safety limit in children’s and adults’ woollen and cotton clothes from China.”

We can’t eat (poisoned food), sleep (poisoned blankets), brush our teeth (anti-freeze component), get dressed (formaldehyde), or put on jewelry (lead)without being poisoned.

With the ACCUMULATION FACTOR at work here, it’s a wonder we’re still walking around. Give the accumulation of poisons time though…

STOP BUYING THIS TOXIC GARBAGE FROM THE BIG BOX STORES THAT IMPORT THESE HAZARDOUS WASTES WE CALL PRODUCTS!

Look to heavy metal poisoning, one of the three causes of Acquired Fanconi Syndrome-like symptoms that vets are seeing in the sick animals.

Did you get through the testing of the list of heavy metals yet? And be SURE TO REPORT your findings.

On his new site, Don Earl is asking for people with samples of chicken jerky (that have made their pets sick/dead) to be tested.

Don’s other site: Pet Food Products Safety Alliance:
http://www.pfpsa.org/

It also looks as though Don could use some members or donations, if anyone wants to help out to find the answers. (I am not one of the people involved in his site… just mentioning it.)

The FDA looked to Banfield for numbers of pet deaths & illnesses back in March or April, but when Banfield estimated 39,000 dead, the FDA did not want to repeat those numbers. The FDA looked to Banfield before for information and should look to them again and pull the products from the shelves!

We know the pet food is poisoned and well as our human food, so OUT WITH IT, FDA. You can’t look any more incompetent than you already do for not being able to or WANTING to protect the public, over the interests of big business.

Tell us what poisons, heavy metals, and discarded drugs (possibly even radiological substances) are in our foods. We WANT to know what we are going to die of because we sure are heading in that direction under your watchful eye!

JENNY BARK: I saw Anderson Cooper 360 last night about the UNAPPROVED DRUGS that are in the market. I was ABSOLUTELY SHOCKED that drugs DO NOT have to go through trials before they are sold to pharmacies.

This revelation should have the entire country rioting. Literally! There’s a huge population of baby boomers and more coming up, many from the protest era, so maybe we’ll get some action on this. Fire off your emails to the media that you want more coverage!

I always knew that the drug trials were often self-sponsored, hence a conflict of interest in reporting results and that there was pressure on the FDA scientists to push through products despite their safety or lack of, but I NEVER CONCEIVED that the drugs could just be sold without any kind of trials, biased or not! What kind of country do we live in??????

See the Union of Concerned Scientists site for the survey of FDA scientists and how they were pressured by superiors to slant their findings or not report certain findings about products. Absolutely disgusting!

Even doctors and pharmacists THOUGHT/ASSUMED the drugs they prescribed and sold WERE APPROVED BY THE FDA.

Did you hear the female representative from the FDA? She said the FDA knows MOST of the drugs that have never been approved, but not all.

She also said she COULD NOT DIVULGE THE NAMES OF THE UNAPPROVED DRUGS for FEAR OF RUINING THEIR SALES, ESPECIALLY IF THEY HAVE A GOOD RECORD. Now, where have we heard that line before!

This FDA person proved once again THAT THE FDA WORKS FOR PHARMACEUTICAL COMPANIES (and big agri-business) and does NOT have as its first priority HUMAN SAFETY! That should be grounds to fire the whole agency right there!

DISSOLVE THE FDA IMMEDIATELY. These people are puppets of big business. Health and welfare are of little importance.

SHUT THESE PHARMA PLANTS DOWN IMMEDIATELY AND PULL ALL UNAPPROVED DRUGS from pharmacies.

The more corruption, loopholes, bias, and deceit I hear about that only serve to line the pockets of the weatlthy, the sicker I become and wonder how in the world we can call the USA the greatest country in the world. No, I’m not concerned about a political enemy attacking us. I’m concerned about our own government killing me off!

Maybe some of those “survivalist” groups that take to the hills and subsist through their own means knew something years ago!

“The American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) has recently been made aware of several complaints from pet owners and veterinarians that multiple brands of jerky treats MANUFACTURED IN CHINA have been making pets sick.”

They repeated it in their September 17 press release:

http://www.avma.org/onlnews/ja.....70917a.asp

Jerky treats FROM CHINA could be causing illness in pets

“The AVMA staff has been in communication with veterinarians who believe certain brands of jerky treats FROM CHINA could be causing illness in pets.”

ACVIM echoes this:

http://www.acvim.org/uploadedF.....ber_14.pdf

“While a list of brand/product names of affected treats is not yet available, the AVMA has learned that ALL complaints have involved jerky treats FROM CHINA.”

No matter what BS is being pumped out by various brands, NONE of them can say that their Chinese-made jerky treat IS NOT part of those being investigated.

“AVMA Press Release Misleads Some into Thinking it Refers to WT”

They’ve attempted to take the quote from the AVMA September 14, 2007 press release and claim that AVMA couldn’t possibly mean their brand:

“This is terrible, but at the same time we want pet owners to know that W T is not one of those brands.”

And then there’s a claim that the treats were tested by FDA September 12, 2007-with a supposed clean record.

No authority has gone on record stating WT was NOT part of those treats under investigation. FDA made an announcement September 26, 2007 regarding jerky treats and illness–there’s nothing there exempting WT:

http://www.fda.gov/cvm/Chknjerky.htm

They’ve FINALLY acknowledged there have been complaints about WT, but look at how they’re trying to get around the issue:

http://www.waggintrainblog.com/

“Is chicken jerky the issue or feeding too much the problem?

“Most of the complaints that have been reported to ADI are from dog owners who have far exceeded the acceptable norm of treat feeding, generally considered only 5% of the dogs’ daily intake.”

They have more addresses than a vagabond–in Nevada, California, and South Carolina.

The blog directs e-mail to an ADIPet address,

The website to a GMail one:

How to contact the CN & WT Tag Team:

http://www.chemnutra.com/media.htm

You’ll also note that the WT blog is closed to outside comments–only WT and the ChemNutra Tag Team Damage Control/Crisis Management Twins Stern and Bernstein are able to post there.

If there’s nothing wrong, why the need to hire the ChemNutra Kids when a simple, truthful, press release would have been a LOT less expensive? And if all’s as well as WT maintains it is, why have a blog which is identical to the one they started for CN in the respect that it was also CLOSED to outside comments. And why the need to try to say that the 75,000+ members of the AVMA were mistaken in their September 14 press release ?

“The American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) has recently been made aware of several complaints from pet owners and veterinarians that multiple brands of jerky treats MANUFACTURED IN CHINA have been making pets sick.”

We have a thread re: Chinese Jerky on Itchmo Forums which has a lot of information and links to what others elsewhere have been saying about WT and other made in China brands. Unlike the WT blog, it’s OPEN for comments:
