Lately, there has been a recall in peanut butter products by the Lynchburg-based Peanut Corp. because Kellogg Co. fears that the crackers might contain salmonella. The suspected companies are Austin, Little Debbie and Keebler. Although this is the most common cause the nationwide salmonella outbreak, Kellogg says that there are other sources too. So far, the salmonella has sickened 430 people in 43 states. On Tuesday, one person died in Minnesota and two in Virginia. Also stay aware of the peanut butter under the names Parnell's Pride and King Nut Co (but don't worry too much; the peanut butter is not sold in retail stores.)
As you might have heard, the Brazilian model da Costa has just recently died from sepsis. Sepsis is a very fatal disease which starts with a urinary tract and spreads. The result for da Costa was the amputation of her arms and legs. Also killed from this disease is the creator of the Muppets and a lady called Mrs. Flatley who caught the disease in the hospital while being treated for something else. The usual syptoms are high fever and large drops of raises in your blood pressure. Many doctors nationwide say that to prevent this disease is to use the bathroom regularly.
This has been your Medical Notice. We hope you have enjoyed it.

Dr. Adam Came To Visit NFS
On Wednesday the 14th, 2009, Darfur refugee Dr. Adelgaber Adam came to NFS to speak about the genocide happening in Darfur. One of our reporters reported on the lecture and came back with some interesting facts.
First of all, let us explain about Dr. Adam. Dr. Adam is Darfur refugee who is the founder and president of the Darfur Human Rights Organization of the U.S.A. He goes around holding lectures in various schools and other places of importance such as the United Nations, speaking about the terror of the Darfur genocide and how it is up to the world to stop this. His organization is set up in Philadelphia, PA, and delivers supplies to the refugee camps in eastern Chad, a country in northern Africa. The genocide is taking place between North and South Sudan. The government and population of North Sudan consist of Arabs, while the South is Christians and other related religious groups. In simple words, it is what you could call another Holocaust caused coming from the terrorist group Al-Qaeda and Osama Bin Laden, starting in the mid ‘50s’.Villages are burned, bombed and many of the residents are taken into slavery. It is estimated that at least 2.5 million people were killed between ’56 and to ’03.Those who are lucky flee to the West into the safe country of Chad on camel, horse, donkey or any sort of transportation. There, they join a refugee camp. In a regular camp, there are at 18,000 people and 14,000 of them are children. The children of the camps are severely malnourished and what they need most is clean water. To buy two pumps, that would cost $4,000. In a single day their food provides them with only 1,000 calories, compared to our 2,000 calories. Many of the children are orphaned because the women are usually taken into slavery, leaving the children to be adopted by another family. They are provided with a small education, attending the camp’s school. Before an attack, the usual advice given to child by the mother is: run. The fathers are mostly never there; they are fighting off what they can. And when they return, they will find a blackened village with no one to be found. Because of this, nearly everyone is displaced. Some have connections and make it to America, others stay. Dr. Adam made a point out of the fact that all the leaders of the world just talk, but don’t take action. That is why it is up to the ordinary civilian to help by making donations that will be taken straight to Chad into the camps by members of the organization themselves. So before you throw out any clothes, please remember the people of Darfur.

Clueless New York Giants
Clueless New York Giants! Is it true?
Up there in New York, last week, the Giants were contemplating there win strategy. Apparently, Donovan McNabb was their reason for worry. According to a search on Google™, “Run out McNabb, we will have a better chance of winning” say the Giants. Just last week, they lost to the Vikings! How is that even possible!? These are the Giants we’re talking about! Is it possible that this season isn’t going to go to well with the Giants? Plus, they just lost to Eagles!

Best Weekend Getaway : The Grand Canyon Skywalk
If you are an adventurous person ( and aren't afraid of heights), then you should check out the all new Grand canyon Skywalk. This multi-million pound open-air glass bridge extends over the canyon 70 feet and suspends over the canyon 4,000 feet! Owned and operated by the local Hualapai Tribe. They are working on a visitors center adjacent to the bridge and are making safety precautions so that to prevent slipping into the canyon. (That would definitely hurt) To build the bridge, it will have to be rolled over the edge of the canyon. Then it will be tested. Actually, it isn't part of the real Grand Canyon Park, but part of the canyon itself. It will open in March '09 and will host a 'First Walk'. The first public figure to step on the walk will be announced.The bridge is open dawn to dusk; $25 per person.
