Big Government + Big Business Like ...?
Does anyone else agree that the only possible answer to the above equation is Big Brother? The needs of big business as powerful big government, as it can get to keep BIG. Big government needs more and more ways to look at us and control us to keep taxes next. Together we are one big happy family. To comply with its clear. Liberals and conservatives have been played by the parties that supposedly represent. You can see both sides? Do you accompany join the Party Vegan? I like eating meat .. but when I vote I vote: VEGAN No pork. Period .. None. No bull. We hear bull we vote for someone else! No sheep. That's us. No more than that. No snakes. Vote for career politicians. No fish. Something smells in Washington (and most state capitols Illinois is stinky .. FAR) is a start anyway.
hmmm yes yes - though I wonder why so many claim to be a question when in fact the intention of own answers ... but correct - I would have equaled big turd, yet note that he can tell Rupert ... maybe I smoked a lot in my years of hippie but Google empires see evil everywhere - will be another soon too - remember very well the OT department information retrieval as fiction allegedly only in 'Brazil' - such as torture, etc ... still not enough to vote for snakes like Paul - who is an asocial question - is on the hugest private reserves U.S. gold, with a good home base destroyed monetary system and a constitution from forefarters with blacks as 3 / 5 of a human being and only landowners (white) men can vote ... all women will have no choice unpleasant against violators below. libertarian - ROFLMAOZEDONG - and my ass! it is liberal only with the freedom to change his views as the wind blows. Aryan brotherhoods support all without reason I guess. Killary not Bush-lite. as for coke, no sweetness Obama artificial plz oh my - Well I do not think it was the turn for women or blacks now, this is who cares about you and Obama cared too quickly to show the country 'is powerful penis in a sandbox Saudi really fast - at least the bulge in your pants - contrary to common sense is no problem for btw Hillary - I always thought that Clinton had conquered Mount Everest, but it was Hillary, of course - and Billy won. Edwards is a typical kind of Kennedy-ng smile Talent, yes. but actually very vague and wishiwashi be a good politician. the Dems just seem completely whole gravel and Kucinich. while I did not even start going for murder easy scores of representatives of insurance Giuliani is particularly insolent - the zero tolerance Weiner great catch as the first with mismanagement of campaign funds. most of others are not even as players in any acceptable ...

Devil's Tongue Kills 17 in Japan
In September 2008, a 1-year-old Japanese boy choked to death on devil's tongue jelly. Glucomannan, the Latin name for devil's tongue, is also called konjac, konjac mannan, konjaku, voodoo lily, snake palm, and elephant yam. The Japanese word is konnyaku.
This was the 17th death from devil's tongue since 1995, starting the frequently seen pattern of evasion, avoidance, denial, or protest followed by surrender. We most often see this pattern with politicians caught in the act or who spoke without thinking. Tourism and transport minister Nariaki Nakayama recently provided yet another example when he spoke with reporters in September 2008, stating that Japanese people were "ethnically homogenous" and "definitely... do not like or desire foreigners." He resigned shortly after.
After the Japanese boy choked to death, the pattern continued. The government announced the 17 deaths, primarily those of children and the elderly, met with MannanLife, and requested a product recall. MannanLife is one of the largest companies producing the jelly. The company said they would improve the warnings, which then said that the product is not appropriate for children and the elderly. Slightly over one week later MannanLife halted production and shipment.
Devil's tongue jelly, known as konjac candy and konjac fruit jelly, has also caused fatalities in North America and Europe, causing it to be banned. Konjac jelly, unlike regular jelly, does not melt naturally in the mouth. Chewing is necessary to break the jelly down, making bite sized products dangerous when they were swallowed whole. Since then, some devil's tongue jelly products on the market have been increased in size. They can no longer be swallowed whole and have appropriate warning labels.
Konnyaku is a traditional Japanese food that presents no danger in most of its forms such as the grayish large blocks found in oden and the grayish noodles found in oden, sukiyaki, and gyudon (beef bowl). Konnyaku is primarily water and glucomannan, which is fiber, containing almost no calories, making it popular with both people interested in health and in dieting.
Konnyaku comes from the konjac plant which grows in Japan, Korea, and China. Sometimes referred to as a potato, yam, or tuber, konjac actually grows in corms. A corm is simply a short thick solid stem underground that stores food. Konjac is also used by vegans as a substitute for gelatin.
Devil's tongue is not the only fatal food in Japan. According to data from the health ministry, 4407 people died from choking on food in Japan in 2006. Devil's tongue was not even one of the top four. Mochi, which is pounded rice, was number one, and was followed by rice, bread and rice porridge. Approximately 85% of the fatalities were senior citizens. While the media rarely present rice, bread and rice porridge as life-threatening foods, the media does present mochi deaths, especially at New Year's, when many of the mochi deaths occur.
Unlike devil's tongue jelly, no steps have been taken to stop mochi consumption. Americans, Europeans, and Japanese all expect their governments to protect them against devil's tongue jelly, and the governments acted. After all, 17 people have died since 1995. During that same period, fatalities from eating mochi have numbered in at least the hundreds in Japan alone.
The government has not acted to protect Japanese nationals, residents from abroad, and visitors. Devil's tongue jelly does not have the same backing as mochi; products that cause cancer and heart disease; unsafe vehicles and drivers that cause traffic accidents; and other dangers we face in our daily lives. We can expect protection where we barely need it. In other areas, we should not expect protection as we will not receive it. Caveat emptor.
