Many of those killed appeared to be children, with some of the pictures and video coming out of the country showing — according to witnesses — those who died from apparent suffocation; some foaming at the mouth, others having convulsions. Amongst Syria’s few remaining allies, Iran, China, and Russia…
Do It Yourself Cakes
Click Here To Know More About: Instant Vortex Plus Air Fryer Sale Submitted by: Dana Bradley Who would think that cakes made in bakeries contain nasty, artery-clogging, cell-altering trans fatty acids? Most people don t even think about it or read the ingredients, and sadly, some people don t even care. As long as they re able to quickly get cakes for special occasions, they could care less. Bakeries often use trans fatty acids in place of butter, in butter cream frosting. This is totally ridiculous! Their rationale for using this (shortening, such a Crisco is trans fatty acids!) is because it stays solid for longer periods of time, unlike butter. But it isn t butter, and it isn t healthy. There is a long list of other unhealthy items that are regularly used in cakes, but you don t have to continue to put that poison into your family…

Toyota accused of misleading public over recalls
Tuesday, February 23, 2010 Toyota has been accused by a U.S. House of Representatives committee with misleading the public and investigators over its recent recalls. The accusations, in a statement from the House Energy and Commerce Committee, claim that Toyota both relied on a flawed study in its assessment of the issue of sticking accelerator pedals at the heart of the recalls, and then made misleading statements about its response. According to the authors of the letter, Henry Waxman and Bart Stupak, Toyota dismissed, rather than investigated, the idea that the cars’ computers were at fault. In a statement, James Lentz, the president of Toyota’s American division, claimed that hardware issues were to blame, and that dealers were repairing the faulty part. Toyota also released a study commissioned from the research firm Exponent that said electronic systems were not to blame. According to the House committee, however, the study involved…
