Prohibition comes after tainted vegetable poisons consumers BEIJING - Food safety authorities in Qingdao, Shandong province, have temporarily halted the sale of Chinese chives after seizing almost 2 tons of pesticide-tainted chives last week. Matthew Stafford Jersey . Nine residents have reportedly been poisoned after eating toxic chives this month. They have joined hands to ask for compensation from a local food vendor.

All of them were poisoned by organic phosphorus, a highly toxic pesticide, officials from the Qingdao Health Supervision Bureau said. I bought a box of fried eggs with chives for 3 yuan (40 cents) last Wednesday. My husband had two bites and my child didnt eat any. I ate all of the rest, one of the patients, surnamed Yang, was quoted as saying. She said the poisoning symptoms appeared 15 minutes after she had the dish. I was not thinking about the chives at all. Instead, I wondered if I was having some heart problems. I called my husband immediately, she said. The other patients consumed the dishes at the same restaurant. After recovering, the nine have filed a case with the local bureau of industry and commerce, demanding compensation. Follow up inquiries revealed the tainted chives might not be just limited to one restaurant. Random checkups on over 2,000 batches of chives, conducted from April 2 to April 9 in three vegetable wholesale markets in Qingdao, found 1,930 kg of chives contained excessive pesticide residue. The tainted chives have been destroyed, the industry and commerce bureau told reporters at a press conference late on Friday. A pesticide residue rate as high as 64 percent was tested on the vegetables, and investigations traced the chives back to the city of Gaomi in Shandong province, said Yue Hao, an official with the local industrial and commerce bureau. A visit to the three vegetable wholesale markets over the weekend found dealers had stopped selling chives, local media reported on Sunday. Several randomly interviewed passers-by said they would not eat any chives for a while. Dealers said they had stopped selling the vegetable last Friday, citing a prohibition from the market authorities as the reason, the report said. However, a manager surnamed Zhang from one of the markets said there was no such prohibition, but the dealers were not selling chives as a safety measure. The current supervision on chives is quite strict. A problematic sample will lead to major problems. In April 2009, media in Northeast Chinas Liaoning province reported that a 6-year-old girl in the provincial capital of Shenyang died after eating chives. Doctors said she was poisoned by organic phosphorus. In April 2004, tons of tainted chives from Xianghe of Hebei province were found in the Beijing market. The chives contained high rates of phorate residue, a kind of organic phosphorus pesticide. In May 2002, the Health Times, a publication under the Peoples Daily, explained the cause for using highly poisonous pesticides on chives in one of its reports. The most serious pest problem for the chive plant is maggots, which live underground and nip on the plants roots. Normally-splashed pesticides could not solve the problem, while the organic phosphorus pesticides cannot only kill the pests, but also promote the growth of the roots, said Wang Kaiyun, a professor in pesticides research at Shandong Agriculture University.

LAS VEGAS -- Floyd Mayweather Jr. spent a night in a Las Vegas jail before his release Friday on a misdemeanour battery warrant stemming from an allegation the boxer poked a security guard in the face last month outside his home. The second arrest in three months for the undefeated prizefighter drew allegations from his lawyer that police and prosecutors overreacted to a minor criminal accusation and that the 33-year-old Mayweather was getting "unequal punitive exaggerated treatment." "This is a misdemeanour," lawyer Richard Wright told The Associated Press. He noted police usually write a ticket for a misdemeanour, or issue a court summons at the jail. Wright accused District Attorney David Roger of "going out of his way to treat (Mayweather) differently than anyone else." Roger didnt immediately respond to messages seeking comment. Mayweather was arrested just before midnight Thursday at the posh Bellagio resort on the Las Vegas Strip and booked early Friday into the Clark County jail without bail. Police initially said the boxer might remain in jail pending a Monday court date. But defence lawyer Karen Winckler intervened, and Mayweather was freed less than 12 hours after his arrest. The misdemeanour charge stems from a confrontation Nov. 15 during which authorities allege Mayweather pokedd a 21-year-old security guard repeatedly in the left cheek during a loud verbal confrontation over parking tickets. Rolando McClain Jerseys Womens. Mayweathers lawyers have denied wrongdoing on his behalf. The warrant was issued Dec. 8 by a Las Vegas justice of the peace, but he immediately recalled it. It was reinstated Dec. 13 after prosecutors complained Mayweather was receiving preferential treatment. The judge, Tony Abbatangelo, scheduled a Tuesday hearing to determine whether Mayweather should remain free pending trial. The misdemeanour case carries a possible six months in jail and a US$1,000 fine. Mayweather is one of the boxings richest and most recognizable figures, with 25 knockouts in his 41 wins. He goes by the nickname "Money," and earned more than $20 million in May from a single fight in Las Vegas against "Sugar" Shane Mosley. But he has also been dogged in recent years by allegations of violence and confrontations at home and at Las Vegas clubs. Mayweather has misdemeanour battery and assault convictions in Las Vegas and his hometown of Grand Rapids, Mich., and is facing a felony coercion, grand larceny and robbery case stemming from a September dispute with his children and their mother at her home. He faces trial Jan. 24 in that case, and could face up to 34 years in prison if convicted. ' ' '
