Avian Influenza

The H5N1 attack of avian influenza has been identified in birds across Europe and Asia.
Millions of birds and at least 60 people have died.
Bird flu has caught lots of media attention lately and some health experts are warning of a
potential global pandemic. But bird flu is not a recent phenomenon, and it is unknown in the
United States, either. There was an outbreak just last year in Texas that showed no serious
problems. Before that, outbreaks in 1924 and 1983 led to the destruction of millions of birds.
However, the bird flu is attracting more attention because it may be more dangerous.
Bird flu is spreading through migratory birds. But at the moment bird flu can only be
transmitted to humans through direct contact with a bird's faeces or respiratory secretions There
has been concern people could get bird flu from eating chicken. Dr. DeHaven says that there is
no danger in eating poultry or poultry products as long as the food is cooked properly. So if you
have meat from an infected bird or an egg from an infected bird and you cook it properly, it
represents really no risk to human health.
Some people are also worried that they can get bird flu just from touching poultry. That is not
true if the birds are healthy - although as a general rule, it's always a good idea to wash hands
after touching raw poultry.

Energy
Energy is one of the most fundamental parts of our universe. We use energy to do work. Energy lights our
cities. Energy powers our vehicles, trains, planes and rockets. Energy warms our homes, cooks our food,
plays our music, and gives us pictures on television. Energy powers machinery in factories and tractors on
a farm.

Energy from the sun gives us light during the day. It dries our clothes when they're
hanging outside on a clothes line. It helps plants grow. Energy stored in plants is eaten by
animals, giving them energy. And predator animals eat their prey, which gives the predator
animal energy. Everything we do is connected to energy in one form or another.

Energy is defined as: "the ability to do work."

When we eat, our bodies transform the energy stored in the food into energy to do work.
When we run or walk, we "burn" food energy in our bodies. When we think or read or write, we
are also doing work. Many times it's really hard work! Cars, planes, light bulbs, boats and
machinery also transform energy into work. Work means moving something, lifting something,
warming something, lighting something. All these are a few of the various types of work. But

Intelligence Pills

Some scientists have predicted that healthy adults and children may one day take drugs to
improve their intelligence and intellectual performance. A research group has suggested that
such drugs might become as common as coffee or tea within the next couple of decades.

To counter this, students taking exams might have to take drugs tests like athletes. There
are already drugs that are known to improve mental performance, like Ritalin, which is given to
children with problems concentrating. A drug given to people with trouble sleeping also helps
people remember numbers.

These drugs raise serious legal and moral questions, but people already take vitamins to
help them remember things better, so it will not be a simple problem to solve. It will probably be
very difficult to decide at what point a food supplement becomes an unfair drug in an
examination.
