Di suatu kawasan pedalaman di Pahang, seorang penternak yang mempunyai ladang ternak yang luas dan berjaya telah meninggal dunia dengan meninggalkan seorang janda yang masih muda, seksi dan cantik, namanya Siti.Siti membuat keputusan untuk meneruskan kerjaya suaminya dengan mengambil alih ladang ternakan tersebut, tetapi dia tidak mempunyai kemahiran yang cukup untuk mengendalikan ladangnya. Jadi dia pun membuat keputusan untuk mengiklankan di dalam akhbar untuk mencari seorang pembantu yang akan mengerjakan ladang ternaknya dengan menawarkan gaji dan sebuah bilik di rumahnya sebagai tempat kediaman memandangkan ladang yang dimaksudkan hanya berada di belakang rumahnya.Selang beberapa hari kemudian ada dua orang pemuda yang memohon pekerjaan tersebut. Seorang pondan, dan seorang kaki mabuk.Memandangkan tiada sesiapa lagi yang memohon jawatan tersebut selain dari dua orang pemuda tadi, Siti terpaksa memilih salah seorang dari mereka.Setelah menimbangkan semasak-masaknya, Siti memilih si pondan, bernama Man untuk bekerja dengannya, dengan anggapan bahawa dia berasa lebih selamat tinggal bersama seorang pondan daripada tinggal dengan seorang pemabuk.Minggu demi minggu berlalu. Man telah melakukan tugasnya dengan penuh tekun dan rajin. Man kerap kali menghabiskan waktunya sehingga malam untuk membuat kerja-kerja di ladang ternakan. Ladangnya menjadi semakin berjaya dan ternakan semakin banyak membiak dan sihat-sihat belaka. Gembiralah si janda muda Siti ni tadi... kerana ingin menghargai kerajinan si Man ni, Siti pun berkata kepada Man,"Man, kau telah melakukan kerja dengan baik dan ladang ternakan pun kulihat semakin bagus, kau sepatutnya ambil cuti pergi ke pekan berjalan-jalan untuk melegakan tekanan kerja..." Gembiralah Man, dan pada suatu malam minggu, dia pun pergi ke pekan.Sampailah ke tengah malam, Man tak pulang-pulang ke rumah. Pukul 1 tak pulang, pukul 2 tak pulang. Pukul 2.30 pagi barulah Man pulang kerumah. Sampai ke rumah, didapati Siti sedang menunggunya sambil duduk di sofa berhampiran Tv.Siti menghampiri Man perlahan...."Buka butang bajuku dan tanggalkannya." Kata Siti.Man dengan tangan yang terketar-ketar dan perasaan yang terkejut,melakukan apa yang diarahkan."Sekarang, buka kasut ku."Man buat, perlahan sekali."Buka, setokin ku.."Dia buat juga."Sekarang, buka skirt ku."Dia buat juga."Sekarang buka coliku."Dengan tangan yang menggigil, dia buat apa yang disuruh."Sekarang....buka seluar dalamku..."Dengan perlahan, dia melucutkannya ke bawah dan menanggalkannya.




Kemudian, Siti pun memandang Man, sambil berkata..."Sekali lagi kau pergi pekan dengan memakai pakaian aku, aku pecat kau on the spot."



Hehehehe...apa yg engkorang pikir haaa?????????

H1N1

Overview
Seasonal influenza is an acute viral infection caused by an influenza virus.

There are three types of seasonal influenza – A, B and C. Type A influenza viruses are further typed into subtypes according to different kinds and combinations of virus surface proteins. Among many subtypes of influenza A viruses, currently influenza A(H1N1) and A(H3N2) subtypes are circulating among humans. Influenza viruses circulate in every part of the world. Type C influenza cases occur much less frequently than A and B. That is why only influenza A and B viruses are included in seasonal influenza vaccines.

Signs and symptoms
Seasonal influenza is characterized by a sudden onset of high fever, cough (usually dry), headache, muscle and joint pain, severe malaise (feeling unwell), sore throat and runny nose. Most people recover from fever and other symptoms within a week without requiring medical attention. But influenza can cause severe illness or death in people at high risk (see below). The time from infection to illness, known as the incubation period, is about two days.

Who is at risk?
Yearly influenza epidemics can seriously affect all age groups, but the highest risk of complications occur among children younger than age two, adults age 65 or older, and people of any age with certain medical conditions, such as chronic heart, lung, kidney, liver, blood or metabolic diseases (such as diabetes), or weakened immune systems.

Transmission
Seasonal influenza spreads easily and can sweep through schools, nursing homes or businesses and towns. When an infected person coughs, infected droplets get into the air and another person can breath them in and be exposed. The virus can also be spread by hands infected with the virus. To prevent transmission, people should cover their mouth and nose with a tissue when coughing, and wash their hands regularly.

Treatment
Antiviral drugs for influenza are available in some countries and effectively prevent and treat the illness. There are two classes of such medicines, 1) adamantanes (amantadine and remantadine), and 2) inhibitors of influenza neuraminidase (oseltamivir and zanamivir). Some influenza viruses develop resistance to the antiviral medicines, limiting the effectiveness of treatment. WHO monitors antiviral susceptibility in the circulating influenza viruses.

Seasonal epidemics
Influenza epidemics occur yearly during autumn and winter in temperate regions. Illnesses result in hospitalizations and deaths mainly among high-risk groups (the very young, elderly or chronically ill). Worldwide, these annual epidemics result in about three to five million cases of severe illness, and about 250 000 to 500 000 deaths. Most deaths associated with influenza in industrialized countries occur among people age 65 or older. In some tropical countries, influenza viruses circulate throughout the year with one or two peaks during rainy seasons.

Disease effects
Influenza can cause serious public health and economic problems. In developed countries, epidemics can result in high levels of worker absenteeism and productivity losses. In communities, clinics and hospitals can be overwhelmed when large numbers of sick people appear for treatment during peak illness periods. While most people recover from a bout of influenza, there are large numbers of people who need hospital treatment and many who die from the disease every year. Little is known about the effects of influenza epidemics in developing countries.

Prevention
The most effective way to prevent the disease or severe outcomes from the illness is vaccination. Safe and effective vaccines have been available and used for more than 60 years. Among healthy adults, influenza vaccine can prevent 70% to 90% of influenza-specific illness. Among the elderly, the vaccine reduces severe illnesses and complications by up to 60%, and deaths by 80%.

Vaccination is especially important for people at higher risk of serious influenza complications, and for people who live with or care for high risk individuals.

WHO recommends annual vaccination for (in order of priority):

- nursing-home residents (the elderly or disabled)
- elderly individuals
- people with chronic medical conditions
- other groups such as pregnant women, health care workers, those with essential functions in - - society, as well as children from ages six months to two years.

So.....berhati2 la yer semua......
