Just A Thought
By Staff Writer Sharon Barrett

Psalm 5:3 "In the morning, O LORD, you hear my voice; in the morning I lay my requests before you and wait in expectation."

Praying, it is asking for things, praising the Lord for things, also giving thanks for what he has done for you... And then knowing he will in one way or another answer your prayers. You do not need to kneel down, or bow your head or lift your head to look at the sky. What is said is between you and the Lord, no one even need know what you discussed. A very private wonderful thing.

Mouthrinse Recall

URGENT: VOLUNTARY PRODUCT RECALL

Manufacturer, Medical Packaging Technologies Inc. is expanding the product recall initiated on 2/28/01 by Chester Labs, to include additional lots of System TLC 4 oz Mouth Rinse, product number 535-4.

The recall has been expanded to include the following lot numbers: 0049001, 0049002, 0053003, 0054004, 0055005, 0056006, 0060007, and 0131009. Chester Labs is contacting all distributors that may have received these lot numbers.

Lot number 0049001 is being recalled due to contamination with Burkholderia cepacia . The product presents a serious adverse health situation, as infections from these bacteria are difficult to treat, and can be associated with high morbidity and mortality rates, especially in immunocompromised hospital patients. The other lot numbers are being recalled because they do not meet the manufacture's product specifications.
