You know what amazes me with a unanimous vote like this one? Congress DOES know, yet day after day they spout the partisan crap as if all was right with the world.
All the new and strange diseases do not come as a big surprise.
When our Space ship exploded, the Columbia (?name/never know what I will forget), the lady scientist that was from India, remember her?
She was on that trip to study virus and other disease samples and do tests on the reaction of the germs to outer space.
It was announced that she had downloaded the test results, so the information was not lost.
And then the info on her tests was never mentioned again.
If you will recall, when the collection of the parts was begun, it was in bio suits and people were warned to not touch, only find and report.
And if you do some digging, you will find the animals and people in Texas get the strange new diseases first....
Shall I say it.
That Space ship did not die a natural accident.
On the 1 AM radio news, they were saying that it would land if the terrorists left it alone, that there was triple the normal security and it was possible that the ship could not come into land in Florida.
And no, I will not don any tinfoil for this one.
The problem is fixed now, JP. Was just alittle "glitch". Indie's son is officially a TM/FR member. :-)
My silly 82 yr old aunt is about to embark on that Russia Sea Cruise
I just saw a news story about a car slowing down to release three dogs on the road. Wicked tactics seem to be in play. Three Dogs...
Makes perfect sense.
Ruth, you sure can connect up those dots.
Is that your local news?
Will send it to you in a bit. This was far easier than the crazy thing that Still2 had found the other week...that one had tons of slang, idioms, etc. I couldn't figure out. This wasn't nearly as bad!
Check mail in a bit.
My 6 yr old granddaughter went to ER the other day, doctor said she has Fifth's Dis-Ease, it could have been any number of things with her symptoms but he right off said Fifth's (her and my daughter who is due in July/Aug were tested today)
Parvovirus B19 infection during pregnancy may cause problems for the unborn child. Some fetuses may develop severe anemia if the mother is infected while pregnant - especially if the infection occurs during the first half of the pregnancy. In some cases, this anemia is so severe that the fetus doesn't survive. Fortunately, about half of all pregnant women are immune from having had a previous infection with parvovirus. Serious problems occur in less than 5% of women who become infected during pregnancy.
Note:
fifth disease produces a distinctive red rash on the face that makes the child appear to have a slapped cheek. The rash then spreads down the body and to the arms and legs. Fifth disease (also called erythema infectiosum) is a viral illness caused by parvovirus B19. Parvovirus B19 is a human virus - it is not the same parvovirus that veterinarians may be concerned about in pets, especially dogs, and it cannot be passed from humans to animals or vice versa.
Signs and Symptoms
Fifth disease begins with a low-grade fever, headache, and mild cold-like symptoms (a stuffy or runny nose). These symptoms pass, and the illness seems to be gone until a rash appears a few days later. The bright red rash typically begins on the face. Several days later, the rash spreads and red blotches (usually lighter in color) extend down to the trunk, arms, and legs. The rash usually spares the palms of the hands and soles of the feet. As the centers of the blotches begin to clear, the rash takes on a lacy net-like appearance. Children younger than 10 years of age are most likely to get the rash.

Forgive me I'm half asleep, but decided it seemed an important enough story to post. DC station reporting a on car that slowed down to let out three dogs in the middle of an I-State and cause some trucks to crash.
