This just in:

Four small brewing companies have heeded warnings by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and have agreed to stop shipping their seven alcoholic energy drinks.

The companies and their products are:

• Charge Beverages Corp.: Core High Gravity HG, Core High Gravity HG  Orange, and Lemon Lime Core Spiked
• New Century Brewing Co., LLC: Moonshot
• United Brands Company Inc.: Joose and Max
• Phusion Projects, LLC (doing business as Drink Four Brewing Co.): Four Loko

Also, this week the Drug Enforcement Agency took emergency action to outlaw five chemicals (JWH-018, JWH-073, JWH-200, CP-47,497, and cannabicyclohexanol) that are used to make synthetic marijuana, meaning it will be illegal to possess or sell them in the U.S. for at least one year.  In the meantime, the DEA will determine if the substance should be permanently controlled.  For now, the drug is classified as a Schedule 1 drug, meaning it is unsafe, highly addictive, and has no medicinal usage.
