I saw this a few days ago in the Washington Post, "A Locavore’s Fourth: Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Really Fresh Produce." The article describes how the group Kitchen Gardeners International has created Food Independence Day, taking place July 4, when participants should try to source the ingredients of holiday meals as locally and sustainably as possible.

And while EWG does have an opinion on that, last week we focused on fluoride in dog food in a new report based on independent tests of 10 brands.

EWG’s finding: High levels of fluoride in dog food

EWG found fluoride above healthy levels in 8 national brands of dog food marketed for both puppies and adults. The amount of fluoride in the dog food was up to 2.5 times higher than what the EPA has deemed a safe amount in drinking water.

Where is the fluoride coming from?

Some of this extra fluoride comes from the fluoridated water used to manufacture dog food. Most, however, is from the “bone meal” and various meat byproducts that are added to dog food - anything from “chicken byproduct meal” to “beef and bone meal.”

These are basically ground bones, cooked with steam, dried, and mashed to make a cheap dog food filler. Since bones store…

The above subject seem arrogant but let us explain why. Above wooden stool is totally new.
The top seat is made of laminated teak board manufactured from waste-furniture-production wood. And all finished in non-toxic finish with Rubio Monocoat oil.

Then ‘the squid legs’ are from reclaimed coffee wood. The things that impossible to make this stool in mass productions are the legs, since coffee wood become rare recently. But if there’s customer out there and want the legs in similar wood such as any twig wood or Liana wood then this thing getting easier though…

Let us know if you would like to do better idea or have an interest to develop more with this new wooden stool.

And thank you for you thought and participation to this matter!

I got blown away by a Prius doing probably 90+ on the highway.  Gotta wonder if the driver understood the reason people by Prius’.
Check out this video.  Shows that a lead foot on a Toyota Prius loses the gas economy war to a high performance BMW M3 sedan.
