俺たちのAC/DCは1986年の時点で既にD.T.というに概念に辿り着いていたという事実 #nowplayingそして帰宅 http://t.co/R54zzDGq Who Made Who is a hard rock album by Australian band AC/DC, released in 1986 as the soundtrack to the Stephen King movie Maximum Overdrive. King would allude to the album's title song in the 1990 revised and expanded edition of his novel The Stand, where a survivor of the novel's flu pandemic changes the lyrics to "Flu made who." Three tracks on the album — "Who Made Who" and the instrumentals "D.T." and "Chase the Ace" — were newly written and recorded by AC/DC. The rest were taken from the band's previous albums. Only one song, "Ride On", is from the Bon Scott era; all of the others feature Brian Johnson. Who Made Who reached #11 in the UK and #33 in the US, and has sold five million copies in the US. It was re-released in 2003 as part of the AC/DC remasters series. Along with the album, the band released a video tape which contained music videos for the songs "Who Made Who", "You Shook Me All Night Long", "Shake Your Foundations", "Hells Bells", and footage from a live performance of "For Those About to Rock (We Salute You)" which was filmed in Detroit in 1983.

New #SwineFlu Strain Prompts Fairground Health Warning - Huffington Post Canada : http://t.co/7cqHSFoI Health officials are warning the public to keep a distance from pigs, after reports that more than 200 people in the U.S. contracted a relatively new strain of swine flu following contact with pigs at fairgrounds and petting zoos. "Many Canadian families visit agricultural fairs taking place at this time of year and may be exposed to this flu virus," according to a public health notice issued by Health Canada earlier this week. "The H3N2v virus doesn't spread easily from swine to people—and even less easily from person to person. In most cases, the virus causes only mild illness in people," said the notice. Still, Health Canada recommends that pregnant women, children under five, and anyone at risk of serious complications from the flu avoid pigs altogether. Not yet detected in Canada The H3N2 strain was first detected in humans last year, according to Dr. Danuta Skowronski of the B.C. Centre for Disease Control. “Even though we haven't seen this H3N2 virus in Canada — we haven't detected it yet — it's likely just a matter of time,” she said. The centre is tracking the virus to see if it has the potential to become the next pandemic, but Skowronski says a previous swine flu outbreak has provided some immunity for most people. In 2009 the H1N1 virus also originated from swine, and was so novel that most people had no built-in immunity like they do now. "The population is not completely naive, they've seen this before.
