And, as usual, Canada is again getting dragged into the fracas and, along the way, getting coated with the obfuscating dust of so many willful misconceptions that the actual facts about How Canada Does It are completely lost in the melee.]]></description><comments>23</comments><score>322</score><crdate>2/13/2008 2:53:10 PM</crdate><rssdate></rssdate><atomdate>2008-02-13T14:53:10+01:00</atomdate></link><link><id>56503</id><url>http://www.plime.com/politics/l/56503/1/</url><title><![CDATA[Clinton Fails To Pay Health Insurance]]></title><description><![CDATA[Hillary has been pretty unsuccessful running her campaign and is deeply in debt ($8.7 million at the end of February.

Now, Congress must pass the American Horse Slaughter Prevention Act (H.R. 503/S. 311) to end the transport to slaughter of American horses to Mexico and Canada. Even when plants were operating within the U.S., several thousand horses were exported to Mexico and Canada annually. Though the total number of American horses killed has dropped, all of them are now enduring terribly long trips over the border that end in a grisly form of slaughter. We have said all along that we must pass federal legislation to stop horse slaughter and the need has never been more urgent.<br/><br/>On January 22, please call your two U.S. senators and U.S. representative and express your support to end horse slaughter permanently.]]></description><comments>25</comments><score>319</score><crdate>1/21/2008 6:48:47 PM</crdate><rssdate></rssdate><atomdate>2008-01-21T18:48:47+01:00</atomdate></link><link><id>60681</id><url>http://www.plime.com/entertainment/l/60681/1/</url><title><![CDATA[8 Foods That May Ruin Your Health]]></title><description><![CDATA[While occasional hamburger or can of Cola won't ruin your health, frequent consumption of the following foods may result in numerous health problems.]]></description><comments>8</comments><score>99</score><crdate>5/5/2008 11:55:49 AM</crdate><rssdate></rssdate><atomdate>2008-05-05T11:55:49+01:00</atomdate></link><link><id>21784</id><url>http://www.plime.com/plime-com/l/21784/1/</url><title><![CDATA[Natural Doesn&#8217;t Mean Safe: Dangerous Interactions Between Prescriptions &amp; Supplements]]></title><description><![CDATA[Ginseng, Vitamin A, Garlic, St. Johns Wort and more may react dangerously with common prescription drugs.]]></description><comments>0</comments><score>8</score><crdate>5/29/2007 6:58:19 PM</crdate><rssdate></rssdate><atomdate>2007-05-29T18:58:19+01:00</atomdate></link><link><id>46389</id><url>http://www.plime.com/science/l/46389/1/</url><title><![CDATA[U.S. Ranks Worst in Preventable Deaths]]></title><description><![CDATA[If the U.S. health care system performed as well as the top three countries, there would be 101,000 fewer deaths in the United States per year, according to researchers writing in the journal Health Affairs.]]></description><comments>0</comments><score>171</score><crdate>1/8/2008 10:46:18 AM</crdate><rssdate></rssdate><atomdate>2008-01-08T10:46:18+01:00</atomdate></link><link><id>28813</id><url>http://www.plime.com/plime-com/l/28813/1/</url><title><![CDATA[Canadian gym puts Wii workout on its schedule ]]></title><description><![CDATA[Canadian health club is offering a new form of exercise for people bored with the treadmill or cycling classes -- the Wii Workout Station.]]></description><comments>0</comments><score>73</score><crdate>7/25/2007 12:58:28 AM</crdate><rssdate></rssdate><atomdate>2007-07-25T00:58:28+01:00</atomdate></link><link><id>42568</id><url>http://www.plime.com/plime-com/l/42568/1/</url><title><![CDATA[Listen up, Canadians!
