Pigs fly!

This just might be the weirdest saying around. When someone says this, they mean that something is impossible. Pigs don't actually fly, of course. But this saying is used to show how surprised or shocked someone is about something.

The exact origin of this phrase is unknown, but it has been around for a long time. Some people say that it comes from a story about a king who was so surprised that pigs could fly that he said, "pigs fly!" Others say that the phrase is based on an old belief that pigs could actually fly.

No matter where this phrase came from, it's definitely popular! You'll see it in movies, TV shows, and books. It's also been used in songs and commercials.

So why do people use this phrase? What does it mean?

The phrase "pigs fly" is often used to show how surprised or shocked someone is about something. For example, if you hear a good joke, you might say "pigs fly!" to show how much you enjoyed it. Or if you see your team win the lottery, you might say "pigs fly!" to show how happy you are.

People also use this phrase to say that something is impossible. For example, if you try to win the lottery every week and never win, someone might say "pigs fly!" to let you know that your chances of winning are very slim.

Pigs ARE smarter than dogs!

There has been a lot of debate over the years as to which animal is smarter, pigs or dogs. Well, we're here to set the record straight – pigs are definitely smarter than dogs! Let's take a look at some of the reasons why:

1. Pigs can learn up to 200 commands, while dogs can only learn around 100.

2. Pigs are very curious animals and love to explore their surroundings, while dogs are much more lazy and tend to stick to their familiar territory.

3. Pigs are able to use tools and figure out how things work, whereas dogs generally cannot.

4. Pigs are also very social animals and like to interact with other pigs, whereas most dogs prefer to be alone or only interact with their human owners.

So there you have it – pigs are definitely smarter than dogs!

Scientists develop vaccine for SWINE FLU

Scientists develop vaccine for SWINE FLU

A team of scientists led by Dr. Xiu-Qun Tan of the University of Hong Kong has developed a new vaccine for swine flu. The vaccine, which is made from a recombinant virus, is currently undergoing animal testing and is expected to be available for human use within the next few years.

Swine flu is a highly contagious respiratory disease caused by the H1N1 virus. It is most commonly found in pigs, but can also be spread to humans. Symptoms include fever, cough, and body aches. Swine flu can be deadly, especially to young children and pregnant women.

There is no specific treatment for swine flu, so the best way to protect yourself is to get vaccinated. The current vaccine for swine flu is only about 50% effective, so scientists have been working on a new vaccine that will be more effective.

The new vaccine is made from a recombinant virus that contains genes from both the H1N1 virus and an equine herpes virus. This helps to boost the immune response and makes the vaccine more effective. The vaccine has been shown to be safe and effective in tests on animals, and it is now being tested in humans.

If all goes well, the new vaccine could be available within the next few years. It will likely be given as an injection, but a nasal spray version may also be available eventually.

Obama orders pork removed from White House meals

Former President Barack Obama has ordered that pork no longer be served in the White House, a move that has angered some conservative Americans.

The decision is based on Obama's belief that the federal government should not be promoting the consumption of a food that contributes to heart disease, diabetes, and other health problems.

Critics say that Obama's decision is another example of his liberal agenda and his attempt to impose his beliefs on the American people. They argue that there are plenty of healthy protein options available besides pork, and that people should be allowed to make their own choices about what they eat.

Supporters of the decision say that it is simply common sense to remove a food that is known to be unhealthy from the menu of a place where people come to work and eat. They note that many other countries, including Germany and Japan, have also removed pork from their official menus.

whatever your opinion on this controversial topic- one thing is for sure- America sure does love its bacon!

Swine flu confirmed in U.S. pig population

A rare strain of swine flu has been confirmed in the U.S. pig population, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) said on Wednesday.

The H3N2v virus, which is a mix of human, pig and bird viruses, was found in pigs in Ohio and Indiana, the CDC said. It is not known how the pigs contracted the virus, but it is believed to have originated from people travelling to and from Mexico, where a more serious outbreak of the same virus has killed 22 people.

So far, there have been no reports of humans contracting the H3N2v virus from pigs in the U.S., but health officials are urging people who have had contact with pigs to monitor their health closely for any signs of infection.

"This finding underscores the importance of taking precautions when coming into contact with pigs," Dr. Anne Schuchat, director of CDC's National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases, said in a statement.

The H3N2v virus is similar to regular swine flu, or H1N1v, which caused a global pandemic in 2009-2010. The new virus has been found to be resistant to two common antibiotics - ampicillin and trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole - but it is still treatable with other drugs such as oseltamivir (Tamiflu).

So far this year, there have been 45 confirmed cases of H3N2v infection in people in the U.S., all of whom had contact with pigs.
