The Competition A blonde, a redhead and a brunette were competing in the English Channel Breast Stroke Competition. The redhead won, and the brunette came in second. However, there was no sign of the final contestant. Hours and hours went by, causing grave concern and worry. Just as everyone was losing hope, the blonde finally arrived. The crowd was extremely happy and relieved to see her. They embraced the young girl as she came ashore. After all of the excitement died down, she leaned over to the judge and whispered, "I hate to be a bad loser, but I think those other girls used their arms." "Hey! Wanna Hear a Blonde Joke?" A blind guy on a bar stool shouts to the bartender, "Hey! Wanna hear a blonde joke?" The bar immediately becomes absolutely quiet. In a hushed voice, the guy next to him says, "Before you tell that joke, you should know something." "The bartender is blond, the bouncer is blond, and I'm a 6' tall, 200 pound blond with a black belt in karate. What's more, the guy sitting next to me is 6'2," weighs 225 pounds, and he's a blond weight lifter." He continues, "The fella to your right is blond, 6'5" and pushing 300 pounds, and he's a wrestler. Think about it seriously, Mister. You still wanna tell that joke?" The blind guy says, "Nah! Not if I'm gonna have to explain it five times." Regards, Mikey. Spectemur Agendo.

If cattle weren't shipped around the country and Europe these outbreaks would probably not occur. Why governments cannot see the probable outcome of their actions beats me.

Using the vaccine would seem to be a sensible way to go if there are regular outbreaks of FMD. What are those signs Mikey and Marion mentioned all about.

http://www.maff.gov.uk/animalh/diseases/fmd/qa1.htm#6 The nature of the disease What is it? How is it spread? Which other countries have recently had FMD? Can people contract the disease? Which animals are susceptible? What are the symptoms? What kinds of virus are there? How is the virus destroyed? What are the effects of FMD? Can FMD be cured? Q What is it? It is a highly infectious viral disease in which fever is followed by the development of vesicles or blisters - chiefly in the mouth or on the feet. There are 7 main types of virus, which produce similar symptoms and which can only be differentiated in the laboratory. Q How is it spread? Foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) is a highly infectious disease that can spread by direct or indirect contact with infected animals. Infected animals begin by excreting the virus a few days before signs of the disease develop. Pigs in particular produce large numbers of virus particles. Airborne spread of the disease takes place readily. The prevailing meteorological conditions and local topography determine the distance that the disease can travel and this may be considerable. For example, circumstantial evidence strongly suggests that the outbreak on the Isle of Wight in 1981 resulted from the airborne spread of the of the virus from Brittany in northern France. The disease is also spread mechanically by the movement of animals, persons, vehicles and other things, which have been contaminated by the virus. Meat from the carcase of animals infected with FMD at the time of slaughter can transmit the virus. In the past outbreaks of the disease have been linked with the importation of infected meat and meat products. Q Which other countries have recently had FMD? FMD is endemic in parts of Asia, Africa, the Middle East and South America, with sporadic outbreaks in disease-free areas. Countries affected by FMD in the past twelve months include Butan, Brazil, Columbia, Egypt, Georgia, Japan, Kazakhstan, Korea, Kuwait, Malawi, Malaysia, Mongolia, Namibia, Russia, South Africa, Taipei, Tajikstan, Uruguay and Zambia. The last major outbreak of the disease in the EU was in Greece last year. Q Can people contract the disease? Advice from the Department of Health is that it is very rare. There has only been one recorded case of FMD in a human being in Great Britain in 1966. The general effects of the disease in that case were similar to influenza with some blisters. It is a mild short lived, self-limiting disease. The Food Standards Agency has advised that the disease has no implications for the human food chain. There is however a human condition called Hand, Foot and Mouth disease, which is unrelated. It will not affect animals. If you are concerned you should contact your GP. Q Which animals are susceptible? Cattle, sheep, pigs and goats are susceptible and some wild animal such as hedgehogs, coypu, rats, deer and zoo animals including elephants. Q What are the symptoms? Vesicles (blisters) in the mouth or on the feet and other symptoms which vary somewhat but may be: CATTLE - Fever, dullness, off feed, shivering, reduced milk yield and sore teats in milking stock, slavering, tenderness of feet or lameness. SHEEP AND GOATS - Fever, lameness, stiff legged walk, off colour, tendency to lie down. PIGS - Fever, lameness, dullness, off feed. Q What kinds of virus are there? There are 7 main types: O, A, C, SAT.1, SAT.2, SAT.3, and Asia 1. Within each type there are many sub-types, e.g. O1 and A22. The average incubation period is 3-8 days but it can be shorter or may extend to 14 days or longer. It has been confirmed that the virus responsible for the present outbreak is the highly virulent pan-Asiatic O type. When animals recover from infection by one type of virus they have little or no protection against attacks by any one of the others. Q How is the virus destroyed? It can be destroyed by heat, low humidity, or certain disinfectants, but it may remain active for a varying time in a suitable medium such as the frozen or chilled carcase of an infected animal and on contaminated objects. Q What are the effects of FMD? The disease is rarely fatal, except in the case of very young animals, which may die without showing any symptoms. All affected animals lose condition and secondary bacterial infections may prolong convalescence. The most serious effects of the disease however are seen in dairy cattle. Loss of milk yield, abortion, sterility, chronic mastitis, and chronic lameness are commonplace. Q Can FMD be cured? There is no cure. It usually runs its course in 2 or 3 weeks after which the great majority of animals recover naturally. The justification of the slaughter policy is that widespread disease throughout the country would be economically disastrous due to the effects already noted above.

In a message dated 02/03/01 08:41:12 GMT Standard Time, painter@onetel.net.uk writes: << David I came home tonight to signs at one of the entrances to my home!? >> I have them outside my house on the lane that goes down the side of it. There is a beef farmer at the other end and the lane is used as a shortcut by people who love to live in the country and work in the town. There is no need to use the lane as, being a single track with few passing places and a ford at the bottom, it is quicker to go round the other road. The signs have some of the cars but there are still the arrogant ones that continue to use it, thereby bringing the possibility of F & M to him or, if he does get it, spreading it to other people. We have asked the police to close the lane as there are just two houses on it at this end and, one mile away at the other end, one house and the beef farm, but even though we all want it closed they say you cannot close a public highway just like that....but it can be closed if he gets F & M!!!!! Talk about closing the stable door after the horse has bolted!!!!!!!! Maggie

Hi, This has come from a friend who lives in Wales and has given me per- mission to use it. It is heart breaking what is going on and please know you have our thoughts of concern and prayers as well as our family, friend, and our churches. "We are suffering now in Wales as well as England from the Foot and mouth Disease....They are killing the sheep in Powys, not to far from Llangynog or here, once killed they burn the carcasses and it is terrible to see the tears of the farmers who have spent their lives trying to make a living weeping as everything is gone in 24 hours. Anglesey has the same problems and movement restrictions are in place. No one can walk in the countryside, horses are confined to there paddocks and farms and stables. No animals can be transported and no animals can be slaughtered for meat. It is hard, hard indeed to imagine the distress and bitterness that people feel here. There is a vaccine against this disease but the Government will not use it as, when the seal is broken, according to international law, we become a nation with a permanent infectious livestock problem. There is nothing we can do except pray that the vets can stop it's progress dead in its tracks. In 1967 we had 5'000'000 animals destroyed in the UK due to the same virus which can even be airborne. Prayer is our most valuable weapon now and so we must use it." Still other friends and acquaintances from England and Wales have spoken of the heartbreak, loss of so much, the travel restrictions, postings upon their property and of the great sadness and distress in their areas; it is truly heart wrenching to hear of these things happening. My heart goes out to all of you and your country and I do hope that this terrible situation can soon come to an end. Please keep us informed. Regards, Glenda

Hi everyone, I am from down south, near Portsmouth. I am researching family history for a friend, who lives near me, but originates from Salford in Manchester. The surnames are ROTHSCHILD and COLLINS from Salford in Manchester. Is anybody researching the same, or are there any links at all that may help me? Best wishes. Shirley Camfield Lovedean

Well, no, Sophiee. The computer has done for the last two years. The last time the oil light came on in a car I was driving it was after all the oil had run out and the engine seized up. In my experience if the oil light comes on its way too late. Jean Ps Never thought of turning the radio up to shut out the noise.

Haha, although I love my music loud and can't go a day with out it, I have to say it worked as well as I believed he found a cold case of beer on the side of the road one day! And did you know with every dozen two by fours you get a six pack of cold ones too? Gotta Luv Em! :) Soph --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

Hi all , I am looking for information on the POTTS family from Jarrow. George Potts { whose father was also named George] married Grace GRIEVESON in 1872. They had Thomas b 1882 Jane b 1873 Joseph b 1874 George b 1875 William b 1877 and Mary Ann b 1879. Thomas married Annie TIBBO in 1903. They had Norman b 1904 George b 1905 and Grace b 1908. Thomas and Annie came to Australia approx. 1910. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Tom

I recently posted a message that I had received from the Dyfed List concerning the present Foot and Mouth Crisis. Many Listers have contacted me to offer their thoughts and sympathy. Although I have no agricultural connections other than as a lover of the countryside and the rural way of life, I would wish to thank all those who have taken the trouble to contact me. Many thanks to all. David Spark (Leeds, West Riding of Yorkshire)

Well, not out loud. Why confirm my families suspicions?
