The owner of an Iowa egg company said he was "horrified" to learn his eggs may have sickened 1,600 people in a salmonella outbreak this summer.
Austin "Jack" DeCoster testified before Congress today and offered this apology obtained by Grant Miller Media:
"Dear sirs,
"Please eggcept my sincere apology over this summer's salmonella outbalk. This has been the worst year in our coopany's history and quite frankly I'm very clucking upset. We subjected our customers to uneggceptable risks and illnesses due to our own neggligence.
"For too long our industry has sought the over-easy route and sent scrambled messages to consumers concerning egg safety. Our coopany has instituted reforms to make sure every egg that leaves our facility undergoes strict safety chicks, I mean checks.
"Words cannot eggspress our deep sorrow over any illness or inconvenience we may have clucked.
"Reggards,
"Jack DeCoster"

We remain cracked and scrambled after reading your hard boiled apology. Your sunny side up flip on this does not go over-easy for our soft boiled embryo with a nutritive and protective envelope members. For us, Mr. DeCoster, this is not just another runny yoke!
Sincerely,
Spheroid and Ovoid Shaped Cells for Justice
Very, very good, all of you!
They're toast.
And they're going to have to shell out after the lawsuits.
There are several great research organizations out there researching this. You can actually participate in the research and get paid for your time if you are diagnosed with diseases like Hepatitis A, Lupus, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Celiac, and many others. The research helps to develop diagnostic tests and cures, and you are paid anywhere from $200 to $1000 every time you participate. The most active options are below.

Manor West focuses on three basic elements to stand out in the San Francisco Nightlife scene: the design, the crowd and the talent. As you walk into Manor West, you are greeted by an impressive 30 ft backdrop designed by Yelena Yemchuk, former Creative Director for the Smashing Pumpkins. The rest of the interior, a direct antithesis to the unassuming (and almost hidden) exterior of the venue, feels comfortable and spacious with high oak ceilings and a raised VIP bottle service area.

The 4,500 square foot venue has the feel of a smaller, more intimate venue. Creative placement of bars, bathrooms and VIP areas solve the flow problems that some clubs can experience on busy nights by releasing bottlenecks and making it easier to access the essential features of the club. Raised VIP booths surround the DJ Booth and allow VIP groups access to a private area with views of the entire club while a large VIP area in the back of the club allows groups of 20 to 30 to celebrate together. Talent like Caroline D’Amore, DJ Spider, Dirt Nasty, Andre Legacy and local favorites Designer Djs, Cams and Zhaldee have already graced the decks and SF can look forward to an impressive lineup of top notch DJs and bands to show up throughout 2010.
