Joe Lieberman and George Bush mailed it in tonight. Yawn. But Fred Thompson was on. It’s making me wonder if he isn’t still angling to be the guy called in from stage right if this whole McCain/Palin thing goes off the rails. I thought Fred waived the bloody flag of McCain’s internment to great effect, and laid out the Maverick myth capably. It’s a bit odd though that there’s nothing from McCain’s actual record — save his Pyhrric vote against the occupation of Beirut — that Thompson saw fit to highlight for the GOP base. The patriotic pap that he served up instead went down easy but I can’t remember any of it. But here’s where we stand. The GOP convention is halfway done. And a couple clean whacks from Fred Thompson is all the pain Obama has suffered? And if anything this convention is doing a lot of the Democrats’ work for them. Before the Palin pick there were a lot of folks who believed McCain was pro-choice. That...

Influenza may be a common infection but it can bring serious complications for children and the sick and elderly. INFLUENZA is a common infection that affects many people. It is caused by RNA viruses of the orthomyxoviridae family. The influenza viruses are classified into types A, B and C based on their core proteins. Type A viruses infect humans and mammals such as pigs and horses, and birds. Type B and C viruses usually affect humans. Type A and B viruses are common causes of acute respiratory infections. Type A virus is the main cause of epidemics and pandemics. The Spanish flu in 1918 resulted in an estimated death of 40 million worldwide. The Asian influenza pandemic of 1957 and the Hong Kong influenza pandemic of 1968 caused significant mortality worldwide. The virus often mutates. Minor mutations (antigenic drift) are frequent and cause repeated outbreaks. Major mutations (antigenic shift) are rare and are due to reassortment of genetic material from different A sub-types. When...
