Unfortunately, the false story paralleled these recommendations in a way that gave the article a high degree of validity. The falsehood came in the conclusions, wrongly attributed to the WCRF, which suggested a fullscale ban on processed meats. While the methods are sound, including the warnings against MSG and nitrates, the solutions are in fact not recommended.

The story spread across a number of alternative medicine blogs, as well as Facebook and Twitter. Originally, the WCRF determined that high quantities of MSG and nitrates were in fact poor choices, but did not recommend full-scale bans of processed meats. Instead, their position revolved exclusively around a reduction to personal abstention from processed meats.

The technical term for clergy in the Church of Wales. “Holy Orders” refers to one who has received the Sacrament of Ordination, normally any beacon, priest, or deacon. This means that essentially any ranking member of the Church of Wales is not responsible for overseeing same sex marriages.

Apple’s tax contributions are extraordinary only in sheer volume, but not in scaled comparison to other companies. Apple’s share of the tax burden is not at the same percentage as companies not enjoying offshore discounting and several loopholes accessible only to multinational companies, leaving only the total amount paid, and not the amount that they should pay, equitable.

Somewhat ironically, both Senators from Oklahoma voted against federal aid for Hurricane Sandy relief this year.

Because Oklahoma declared a State of Emergency in affected areas, they are eligible for rapidly-provided aid resources, including federal money, supplies, and National Guard support. This support goes across voting and party lines — aid is blind.

It is true that support for aid bills go across party lines. However — among those that object to it you will only find Republicans, who cite budget concerns as the reason for their vote, unless it comes to their region, or state.

The Senate passed H.R. 152 — The Disaster Relief Appropriations Act. 2013 — Y-62, N — 36.

The House — Y — 241, N — 180.

Major-General David Sejusa, one of Uganda’s most decorated military leaders, was supposedly the target of an assassination plot created by a number of his fellow officers. Somehow, whether through deliberate leaking or other means, the story was leaked to the media. Because of the Ugandan military’s close political ties to the ruling government, any power struggle within the military is a direct threat to the perceived strength of the state and its leadership.

Media outlets reporting this news have become targets of government investigation, both as a means of subjugating the press and identifying the source of the information. Because the leak destabilizes the authorities, it is of particular disturbance to the Ugandan government.

Because of Warner Chilcott’s size, it is primary locked to the United States market. However, with the production capacity, 60 country market, and new Ireland base provided by Actavis, the reach of Chilcott’s specialized products is now global. For both companies, this means a massive revenue growth and the potential to overtake the larger pharmaceutical giants, including Phizer and Novartis.

The chief part of this “pipeline” lives within Actavis. Warner’s contribution is a rich history of specialized medicine in women’s health and dermatological fields. The merger allows Actavis to easily expand its brand portfolio without dedicating extensive resources to amplifying the department.

I’m really glad that he parsed this out. It was my mistake on Complex, but at least I was not alone!

I’m really banking on this being a sly RG reference.

It is “you know me.” Listen to it again…he draws out “know.”

Also, it appears that the repetition of “round the outside” is a reference to DMX’s “Up in Here.”

Several parts of the lyrics are wrong…some lines are missing.
