|

Thursday's case, a 4-year-old dairy cow that died on a farm in Western Alberta, prompted U.S. Department of Agriculture officials to send an inspector to investigate the death. Inspectors...
|
| 6/23/2006 - -- Livestock feed manufacturer H.J. Baker & Bro. has issued a recall for supplements sold in nine states that may have been contaminated with cattle remains, a violation of a 1997 ban meant to protect against the spread of mad cow disease.

|
 | 5/15/2006 - Mad cow disease was recently confirmed in a cow in Alabama, according to two tests conducted by the U.S. Department of Agriculture. Even so, the USDA seems just as reluctant as usual to admit that U.S. herds continue to be infected with mad cow disease. Even though the results of this second test have...
|
 | 9/14/2005 - Welcome to Mad Cow Madness! If you've ever wondered what's really going on with mad cow disease in the United States, here's the real story.

|
| 7/23/2004 - It's a frightening realization: not only is BSE -- the human equivalent of mad cow disease -- easily transmitted through blood transfusions, it can also strike patients previously thought to be immune to the disease. These findings reveal that a much wider portion of the world population is potentially...
|
| 7/18/2004 - The USDA's mad cow disease testing program is a sham: it doesn't test many cows showing neurological symptoms, it falsified records of one cow to make sure it received "downer" status, and it doesn't test healthy-looking cattle at all! These are the accusations from the USDA's own inspector general...
|
| 7/13/2004 - The FDA almost never takes action to protect the public. Instead, the agency's decisions consistently and almost universally protect the financial interests of influential corporations such as pharmaceutical companies or, in this case, beef industry companies. Mad cow disease is real, and it's here...
|
| 7/12/2004 - The cosmetics industry is one of great duality: on one hand, their products help make people appear visually pleasing. On the other hand, the ingredients used to make those cosmetics are horrifying, if not downright gruesome. If most people knew what they were putting on their face and lips every day,...
|
| 7/8/2004 - The USDA has done such a poor job investigating mad cow disease that even other countries like Japan are being forced to conduct their own investigations into the safety of U.S. beef. Hey, isn't that the USDA's job? Don't be silly. The job of the USDA is to promote U.S. agriculture and cattle ranchers...
|
| 7/3/2004 - This is one of the most shocking reports ever issued by the French government: a mad cow disease epidemic swept through cow herds in that country -- entirely undetected by authorities.

|
| 1/30/2004 10:07:10 AM - When it comes to testing U.S. cattle for mad cow disease, the USDA
doesn't really want to mandate any sort of testing at all. Even with
countries like Japan banning all US beef due to our country's lack of
mandatory testing requirements, the USDA continues to resist creating
new regulations...
|
| 1/17/2004 7:57:49 PM - Mad cow wouldn't be a problem in the first place if the beef industry
didn't grind up old, diseased cows and feed their parts to other cows.
That mad cow is appearing is simply an inevitable result of utterly
inhumane and filthy practices by corporate beef producers. Now, thanks
to this single...
|
| 1/17/2004 9:27:52 AM - There's a tremendous amount of education coming out as a result of the
outbreak of mad cow disease on U.S. soil: fewer people are eating cow
fat and cow flesh, which will naturally make them healthier human
beings. As this article shows, the fear over mad cow is striking an
ever-expanding collection...
