Fonterra finds botulism bacteria in dairy ingredient

WELLINGTON: New Zealand’s Fonterra , the world’s largest dairy exporter, said on Saturday it had found bacteria which can cause botulism in some of its dairy products, prompting China to recall affected products.

New Zealand authorities said they were holding back some widely used infant formula products from supermarket shelves.

Fonterra said it had sold New Zealand-made whey protein concentrate contaminated with Clostridium Botulinum to eight customers, including food and beverage companies and animal stock feed firms, for possible use in infant formula, body building powder, and other products. None of its own branded products were affected, it said.

The Ministry of Primary Industries said Fonterra had told it the products in question were exported to Australia, China, Malaysia, Vietnam, Thailand and Saudi Arabia.

PUSH-POCKET IN KUALA LUMPUR

I am sure you all have heard of 'pick pocket'. A new trend 'push pocket'. Read on.. for your own good

A few days ago a new type of crime has surfaced in town. It goes something like this:-
Somebody slips a hand-phone into your pocket, sometimes it could be just a wallet with an identity card and a few ringgit..

A few minutes later, the 'owner' comes up and confronts you, the 'thief '.. He makes a big commotion that you stole his stuff.

You, caught unaware, are then pulled aside by the owner' for a settlement. You are intimidated and threatened that if you do not pay up the police will be brought in. If you pay up, this 'owner' lets you go. If not, the police are brought in.

Another strange thing is that there always seems to be a 'witness' to your 'theft'.

I am told this often happens to foreigners at the Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA) or even at LRT trains. Given that you're 'guilty until proven innocent' as far as the Malaysian police are concerned, I understand some poor people are in jail for these 'offences'.

At the KLIA, the 'owner' throws his hand-phone and wallet with the few ringgit notes into the luggage trolley of a just arrived passenger. The drama unfolds a few minutes later. The real culprit has easily convinced our Malaysian police to arrest the real victim (if he has not paid up the 'settlement' demand). This is a very serious matter.

This is another form of extortionists operating in broad daylight. They are disgusting criminals who will do anything to rob and steal. The sickening part of the whole
scenario is that unless you pay the 'quoted settlement' money, they will put you in real trouble by calling the police.

The real culprit gets back his hand-phone and wallet but the real victim ( i..e.. could be any one of us) is thrown into the police lock up and charged in court.

So do be very careful, otherwise you may end up as a 'thief as you have no way to prove your innocence.

Steaming

When steaming your food, make sure you open the lid to boil the water first or by using filtered water.

If the unfiltered water (tap water) is used, your food will be contaminated by absorbing all the cancer causing chlorine upon heating which is a serious health hazard.

This simple technique can save your life in a mass shooting by Dr. David Eifrig

The odds of getting caught up in a mass shooting incident are astoundingly low. Despite the recent flurry of high-profile incidents, it’s unlikely you will ever need to utilize the following technique.
• If you are in a public area and someone starts shooting, try to evacuate if at all possible. If you cannot escape, lie down on the floor, face down.
• Point your feet in the direction of the shooter.
• Turn your head away and cover it with your hands. This will reduce the size of your target profile. It will minimize the likelihood of a bullet hitting any of your vital organs.
