No More!

Anyone else seen the latest Lynx advert?

"Use more, get more!" with hundreds of women mobbing a bloke on the beach.

This is a terrible advert. Too many teenage boys think that swimming in this stuff exempts them from bathing and wearing antiperspirant/deodorant.

That stuff pongs!

What would your teenagers do?

Here's another one.

A TEENAGER has survived two bites from one of the world's deadliest snakes thanks to the quick thinking of friends who recently completed a first aid course.

Good on them!

Clinical effects of taipan snake bites

Taipan snakes have highly potent venom and can cause severe envenoming (envenomation) of humans. They are an uncommon cause of snakebites and occasional snakebite deaths in Australia at present, but represent a significant portion of major snakebites in coastal northern Queensland. Envenoming (envenomation) can cause defibrination coagulopathy, renal (kidney) damage or renal failure (kidney failure). They can cause neurotoxic paralysis (muscle weakness, respiratory failure), and this is common, and while clinical features of flaccid paralysis usually take several hours to become apparent, occasionally major paralysis develops within just a few hours of the bite. Bites can also cause myolysis (rhabdomyolysis, muscle damage), but this is uncommon and not usually severe. .
