Local markets pull Peter Pan peanut butter
Stop & Shop and Shaw's, two of New England's largest grocery chains, said today that they responded to reports of a salmonella outbreak by ordering their stores to pull all Peter Pan peanut butter off their shelves.
ConAgra Foods Inc. of Nebraska touched off national concern when it disclosed that certain jars of its Peter Pan and Great Value peanut butter had been linked to an outbreak of salmonella that has sickened people in 39 states, the Associated Press reported.
ConAgra indicated that the outbreak was tied to jars whose lids bear a product code beginning with 2111, the AP reported.
Stop & Shop Supermarket Co. said that to its knowledge, no tainted peanut butter had been found in its stores, but as a precaution, company officials today ordered all Peter Pan peanut butter to be removed from store shelves, company spokesman Robert Keane said.
The chain has also programmed its cash registers to issue an alert in the event that a Peter Pan peanut butter jar had somehow eluded the recall and a customer showed up with it at a checkout line, Keane said; if such a jar were to be swiped over the scanner, the store employee at the cash register would be alerted that the product was not for sale.
Stop & Shop does not carry Great Value, another peanut butter brand linked to the salmonella outbreak, Keane said.
Based in Quincy, Stop & Shop operates 385 supermarkets in the Northeast, including about 120 in Massachusetts.
Meanwhile, Shaw's Supermarkets Inc., a New England chain based in West Bridgewater, said its 210 stores were instructed to immediately remove all Peter Pan peanut butter from store shelves, spokeswoman Judy Chong said.
Any customer who has recently purchased Peter Pan butter at a Shaw's can return it for a full refund or exchange it for a comparable product, Chong said.

had to take the picture w/o the flash - it kept putting a nasty reflection which made it hard to read.

the things you find sometimes...
a while back (tuesday, december 5th) i posted an entry where i explained how i came to love certain bands, and how it is usually a song that clubs me over the head.
one of the bands i mentioned was Curve, and how Coast Is Clear was that club. i didn't go into it other than to say Toni's voice. anyways, the combo of her voice and Dean's bass line, is what clubbed me over the head. i'm not sure what else to say about it, but i can now tell you when i first heard the song.
it looks as though altmusictv has a lovely archive of MTV's 120 Minutes playlists. and with some quick digging, i struck GOLD!

HUZZAH!
i remember watching that episode. how's about that!
nevermind that it's a goldmine for playlists. older shows (back when i was watching) tend to be a little spotty, but it's fun to see when i watched them because i'll recognize a few videos, interview segments, etc. a nice trip down memory lane, back when i'd stay up to 2am to see what was genuinely interesting.

oh grow a set
sorry JJ and eva, but i have to say this.
the news just showed Peyton during an interview asking Colts fans not to sell their tickets to Patriots fans. (keep the dome blue)
my response is this:
OH GROW UP!
you are a professional quarterback, and one of the best playing right now (this is coming from a Patriots fan too). so yes, there will be a lot of pressure, but focus on the game. do you really believe that Colts fans are really that fair weather? i don't. and do you really think that a die-hard Colts fan is going to sell their first opportunity to see an AFC Championship game at HOME? that to me says that Peyton doesn't have faith in his fans, or worse, himself.
i expect the game to be a good game, and both teams are giving their all, and the best team will win. and i would not be suprised if it didn't come down to a field goal during the last seconds. so Peyton, don't forget that the Pats colors are Blue and Silver, so there will be some more blue in the stands regardless. and it's going to be LOUD so hush.
focus on the game and how you are going to beat our defense. i'm sure that's the same thing that Tom is focusing on.
i have lost a little of my resepect for your Peyton. you're still a good quarterback, but...
