Sorry I couldn't get the embed code, folks - but if you're interested in this, you'll click!
Watch what you're eating. Ask. Apparently, there is no labeling, but you need to eat only meat, fish, poultry produced in Canada or the USA.

RED ALERT: S150 WILL PASS ON WEDNESDAY UNLESS WE ARE HEARD!
CALLING ALL PATRIOT RESPONDERS
RED ALERT! S.510 WILL PASS ON WEDNESDAY
UNLESS WE PUSH BACK HARD NOW!
Campaign for Liberty, the "Doctors Paul" citizen group broke the
story on Monday, 11.15.10 that S.510, the horrific, fake "food
safety" bill (and possibly its evil companions, S.3767 and the
discredited S.3002) will be pushed through the Lame Duck Congress
this week. It is definitely on the Obama Lame Duck Agenda. Our
friends in DC have confirmed this.
ACT HERE NOW!
http://patriotresponse.com/blast_away/oppose-s510-food-safety-bill
C4L WAS off the Internet, apparently a victim of hacking. This very
well protected, very professional site was hit to stop the word
getting out that Congressional insiders expect to move S.510
immediately. This Ron & Rand Paul supporter group's warning needs
to get to the public!
Update: 11.15.10 10 PM: Tea Party Nation reports: "On Wednesday,
there will be a cloture vote on Senate bill S.510."
11.16.10 UPDATE: PUSH BACK rate is now 5,000 emails an hour to
decision makers! Keep on sending those messages!
IT IS URGENT THAT EVERY HEALTH AND FOOD FREEDOM GROUP WARN THEIR
SUPPORTERS AND FLOOD CONGRESS WITH "NO S.510!" MESSAGES, STARTING
NOW! Please forward this message widely; please take the Action
Item below EVERY DAY FOR EVERYONE IN YOUR FAMILY!
If you need information about the bills, see our Talking Points
here:
http://patriotresponse.com/?page=17
Our action item, to FAX US Senators, is here:
http://patriotresponse.com/blast_away/oppose-s510-food-safety-bill
It is urgent that many thousands use the action item every day to
make PUSH BACK work!
We must act fast to stop this threat!

OBAMA AND EPA DETERMINED TO DISMANTLE US BEEF INDUSTRY - WE MAY NEED "STRATEGIC HAMBURGER SUPPLIES'
http://www.cnsnews.com/news/article/beef-industry-us-may-need-strategic-hamb
If you don't know how to grow it (I'm lousy in the garden, but I can raise livestock), or raise it, you'd better start learning.
Time to thumb your noses at zoning restrictions and grow your own meat and produce.
Hens are quiet, especially banties - no one will know you have them.
Goats are excellent sources of meat (the meat breeds), and milk and butter. The bucks smell terribly during breeding season and the odor travels, but the does are wonderful pets and companions who will produce babies for meat, milk or barter. They are quiet, and kept clean, they don't have any odor. The manure from chickens and goats get composted and there's your fertilizer. Rabbits can be kept in hutches, produce lots of babies and are good to eat. The pellets and urine are excellent fertilizer and can be put in your garden without composting. Won't burn your plants.
Take a look at the following magazines and sites: Grit, Mother Earth News, Murray McMurray Hatcheries, and get on some of the web's homesteading lists.

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/worldnews/article-1301515/Female-babies-China-grow-breasts-drinking-milk-laced-hormones.html
And family farmers in the USA go to jail for selling raw milk.
What are we going to do about this?

GULF SEAFOOD GETS CHEMICALLY TESTED FOR OIL, NOT DISPERSANT
http://www.propublica.org/blog/item/gulf-seafood-gets-chemically-tested-for-oil-not-dispersant
If you've been following this blog, I mentioned the safety of seafood from the Gulf some time in the last week or two.
Please be careful with what you eat.
When I was a kid growing up in Staten Island, NY, tarballs were nothing new - they came from various incidents at sea, from drydocks...who knew? They were so commonplace that usually there was a jar of kerosene in the car and a rag for your feet and hands.
The water was polluted - everyone knew that. Interesting objects floated on the surface, occasionally areas of rainbow-slicked water. Sometimes the fish Dad caught tasted like diesel and had to be thrown away.
But it was nothing like the Gulf disaster. Seabirds still plied the water, hunted for tiny prey the wake of breakers on the beach. Seagulls gathered in great flocks. Some fish disappeared, like Lafayettes and little snappers. And although the water where I learned to swim was often the color of pea soup or cloudy onion - so dense you couldn't see your legs. But that was on the edge of NY harbor.
The beaches of South Jersey were immaculate, the water blue, clean and cold.
I really pray for the people and the wildlife, the estuaries, the Gulf and its children. This distruction never should have happened. We are finding out, day by day, that it is all about politics and greed, or maybe the politics of greed.
