  1. The dachshund-terrier mix is being recognized by Guinness World Records
  2. the first round of research showed it was ppl w/ some kind of other health issue that became fatally ill from H1N1 now their studies show it is previously healthy young people the longer this shit is around the more they'll know
  3. I know how it goes.... *beats head off wall* If you can get the poor thing somewhat pacified use that chance to swipe w/ baby oragel. you really gotta sneak attack w/ stuff that tastes bad... and be prepared for spitting and fit throwing.
  4. well.... most people in Italy are Italian.... Americans are well mixed
  5. put a clean damp washcloth in the freezer for a bit (not frozen uber hard but stiff) and let him chew it.
  6. it is not sick to death that is the problem with this flu it is the interruption/loss of services ie medical, police, fire dept and other social services. If half the local hospital staff calls in sick for weeks/maybe even months as the flu sucker punches one person after another; services will be limited and/or interrupted. That is why medical personnel are first in line for the anti virals. They are trying to prevent doctors and nurses from becoming to sick to care for their dozens of clients. This strain is nasty enough to keep an individual laid up for over a week with unpleasant (and in some cases) life threatening symptoms. A prolonged fever can seriously fuck you up. My family doc had a swine flu shot in the last outbreak, "it nearly killed me". He was quite pissed over being vaccinated this go round and the stabber didn't tell him about the injunction until after he was jabbed which made him more pissed cuz he didn't have to get it His advice is follow normal flu precautions and take care of yourself if you do get sick. I think I already had H1N1 end of last winter. It was without a doubt the worst viral infection I've had since I was a kid. I felt like death warmed over. It lingered for about 2 weeks, I was pretty worthless for a week at least. I didn't drop dead but there was an interruption of services around here. I couldn't get up long enough to cook a meal or do dishes or any of the other things I need to do to take care of the fam. That is the real ass kick with this virus, caregivers too sick to give the care. H1N1 is as easily spread as a common flu but it isn't "common" the fucking shit was most likely made in a lab, probably dudes looking for a viable vaccine for bird flu. Human, avian and 2 swine flu's from different continents; possible to occur in nature naturally, yes. Possible it began in a factory farm from turning turning our pork supply into cannibals, yes. Probable it is naturally occurring flu mutation like the previos mentioned... give me a fuckin break
  7. Study suggests genetic diversity limited by two sudden population declines
  8. 1 in 5 U.S. kids had flu so far this month Most cases were likely swine flu strain, CDC survey says
  9. New laws would force women to answer questions, hear ultrasound details well obviously thats a big fuck you to women seeking medical treatment. Its a violation of privacy with a raciest twist. The ultrasound thing is a bullshit waste of a doctors time and could leave the patient emotionally disturbed. It's horse shit yo. it is none of the governments fucking business if people want to volunteer to fill out a survey, fine, but you don't force it on them for them to have a medical procedure. that sounds like a job for the shitty insurance industry NOT the government. fuck you Oklahoma and your dark ages bullshit
  10. Order could speed up treatments by waiving certain medical standards just out of curiosity how many people do you know that are sick right now? I got a sick kid that has missed weeks of school and the attendance office at the hs told me they have had a lot of people students and teachers out sick with flu symptoms. The flu (pick whichever one you want) is really starting to have a noticeable effect in our town. This place will be sickie village by December
  11. Carbon Taxes Versus Carbon Markets What's the best way to limit emissions? Ronald Bailey | May 24, 2007 I'm sorry but this just screams sketchy at me Lets take our buddies over at Exxon; you know they'll have a big allotment of how much they can spew. They could do a few things quick and easy to lower what they're putting out; swap out the current company cars for hybrids, retrofit for green energy, or if they want something done on the spot they'll just close up some shops and put some people out of work. Which do you think the big co's will do first They can half ass it enough to give them some extra spew to sell off to some other company in yet another way these huge cos can make some sick profit. I'm an environmentalist but I'm also a skeptic and a realist. I don't think we should do anything that would allow the big co's to make money off of pollution. Its more of the same give it to the top one percent and hope trickle down effect works out. It doesn't work out. Look around The tax them for what they spew is environmentally the only way to go. The problem is Exxon/Walmart/GM is going to want to pass that cost on to the consumer, us. More or less if we want a decent future for our kids and their kids we better pay up. They'll begrudgingly admit the weather is getting kind of funky while they fund junk science. They appeal to the worst in people; hey you don't have to worry about it let the next gen figure it all out. People will be smarter in 20 years and figure out some cool solution. No. This is not The Jetsons. I do not drive a flying fucking car. We have to fight over Jesus rode a dinosaur being taught in public schools. WTF get real. Fantasy land delusion time needs to come to an end now; for a lot of people it has. I call it coming out of the Bush coma. We have a lot of work to do and we're just getting started. A messiah environmental device in 20 years, don't count on it. The real messiah is all of us right now doing mutherfucking something to stop shit from being really bad 20 years from now. We are shaping the future. Pollution, over fishing, deforestation all happening right now. We're seeing some of the effects but it will be fires, drought, high storm serge, floods, severe storms w/ lightning, lateral winds and tornadoes. Glaciers are a water source for many, what will they do when their gone? Food and clean water scarcity, property damage from acts of nature, climate refugees... that just don't sound so good to me. I don't think some super solution will pop up in 20 years to fix it either. We have to tax these trashers of the planet but we have to figure out how to do it in a way that "Joe Sixpack" doesn't feel in his wallet. They are already making huge profits off of us and sorry but atm the country is experiencing some financial difficulty and we don't have anymore to hand out; go hit up AIG for a loan bastards. This is one of those things that make me I just don't have a solution and it drives me crazy. Times like this law school would come in pretty handy
