and the cats are gonna pay for it



Late post for 14 March:
 
Welcome to Thursday afternoon...we've almost made it to Friday.
Here’s the short version of the 15 March 2019 issue.
  • you know you want this for your phone

  • DOD servicemembers and civilians may soon be able to invest in companies that grow and sell marijuana...certainly that's a growth industry (grin)
  • LSD micro-dosing is all the rage.  And mushrooms.  Some claim that small doses increase alertness, creativity and problem solving without suffering hallucinations of monsters trying to kill you.
  • ~300,000 children are murdered each year by criminals selling fake drugs, says the World Health Organization
  • new claims from scientists that Apple AirPods -- those little C-shaped wireless devices you see on folks' ears -- are emitting dangerous radiation directly into the skull.  Is this the modern version of living under power lines?
  • "What's In My Food" This Week? 
    • Salmonella in Pillsbury flour shipped nationwide to Publix and Winn-Dixie stores
    • Salmonella in Butterball ground turkey products shipped nationwide 
    • allergens in Chef Boyardee chicken and rice shipped to Florida, Kentucky, and NY
    • potential tampering of Duke's "ready-to-eat pork sausages" shipped nationwide (blech, who would eat this anyway?) 
    • gluten in the gluten-free sausage sold nationwide by North Country Smokehouse 
    • milk (an allergen) not on the labels of chicken fried rice sold in Georgia and 8 other states
