One of the biggest disgraces of both Minnesota and Michigan state government is that neither can apparently find the money to publish a full-blown health advisory on contaminants in fish to protect the health of women and children. But the nonprofit sector can help. Here's a "fish calculator" that enables you to calculate a Minnesota fish diet that is not likely to cause harm to you or your offspring. Michigan needs the same. As well as easy-to-follow advice in printed form and several languages for pregnant women and women of child-bearing age of diverse cultures.

And just in case you missed it, here's a website that enables you to type in your zip code and find out where, locally anywhere in the U.S., you can find wholesome (generally, pesticide-free and/or sustainably grown) Thanksgiving staples including turkeys.
