A national outbreak of salmonella in eggs has sickened hundreds of people since May and appears to be ongoing, experts at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention say. The outbreak has been tracked to in-shell eggs from Wright County Egg in Galt, Iowa, which has launched a recall.The Associated Press estimates the total number of eggs recalled at 228 million.
The recall covers eggs in their shells packed between May 16 and Aug. 13. They come in cartons ranging from six to 18 eggs and are marked with plant numbers P-1026, P-1413 and P-1946. The eggs should be returned for a refund and not consumed. Full Article

Imagine All The People
Seriously. Let us imagine, for just a minute, that we were a species. A race. The human race
Let us imagine that with this recognition, we are no longer other things
No longer colors, and no longer preferences or sexual orientations
No longer this club or that activity. This party or that affiliation
Yes. Let us pretend that we are all people. One race. The human race
Well, what do you suppose would be possible then?
Imagine if we pooled our collective knowledge. Scientists, theorists, creators and artists all across the world
Sharing information and ideas
What do you think we could accomplish?
What if large corporations and military interests did not buy up all of our greatest minds
And turn them to greed and destruction
What if we Let their knowledge and observations run free
What could we build? Together as one race? The human race
Do you believe that we have the resources and technologies to feed the world
Yes, the world
Do you believe that we could provide cures for diseases that have been killing us off for decades
Or that all of the factors that create a large volume of crime and violence can be completely eliminated
By eliminating their root causes – hunger, poverty, lack of education etc
The truth is, we can do all of that. Right now, this day
It’s possible – don’t believe that it isn’t
I believe in unity
I truly believe that we cannot move forward in any significant way as a people
Unless we start to see ourselves as one people
We can be individuals, we can have groups
But we can be individuals that work together
Groups that form only for the greater good of all
Things could be so different, for everyone
You
Me
Us
One person can do much, but when U-n-I verse…
All things become possible
Think about it
