We give it orders which make no sense.  ~Henry Miller<\/em><br \/>\nA few weeks ago, my 94 year old mother called me in a panic.  &#8220;Janice, I know you like to gloss up your lips, but stop it right now.  It&#8217;s gonna&#8217; kill you.&#8221;  Truth be told, since the &#8216;news&#8217; came from my mother, the alarmist, who reports to me on all such matters, I tuned it out.  Does anyone listen to their mother? (I digress; another blog piece!)<br \/>\nBut this morning, my cousin sent me an article that I actually read!  I urge you to do the same.<br \/>\nNicholas D. Kristof (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2010\/05\/06\/opinion\/06kristof.html?emc=eta1\">New York Times<\/a>) writes, &#8220;The President&#8217;s Cancer Panel is the Mount Everest of the medical mainstream, so it is astonishing to learn that it is poised to join ranks with the organic food movement and declare: chemicals threaten our bodies.&#8221;<br \/>\nFrom the foods we eat, to the plastics we microwave them in, to our lipstick, we are in trouble!
