What is rabies? Rabies is an infection of the central nervous system. If you are bitten by a dog (or another animal) with rabies Danton Heinen Jersey Youth , the rabies infection is transmitted through the animal s saliva into your body.

Causes Rabies is mainly caused by animal bites. Most cases of rabies in the UK have been caused by the victim having been bitten by a dog or bat whilst on holiday abroad or while working overseas. These incidents aside, the UK is recognised by the World Health Organisation as being a rabies-free territory.
Rabies can not only be contracted through an animal bite. You can get rabies through an annual licking your open wound (or any area of broken skin) or even through your eyeball. It then goes on to infect your brain and spinal chord.
Diagnosis A confirmed diagnosis of rabies is usually gained through studying the results of a saliva, spinal fluid Jaroslav Halak Jersey Youth , or blood test.
Effect on your life Rabies can cause encephalitis and even death. This is why it is essential to seek medical treatment urgently if you think you may be infected with the rabies virus.
Treatment Although most cases of rabies prove fatal, if the infection can be treated in time it is possible to cure the condition.

Like many, I watched the 134th Belmont Stakes hoping to see the first Triple Crown in 24 years. Instead Zdeno Chara Jersey Youth , I saw the 70-1 long shot, Sarava, appear from nowhere to win. We should take heart from this unlikely victory. As small business owners, managers John Moore Jersey Youth , and entrepreneurs, the "big shots" often see us as long shots -- worth a cursory notice, but rarely more.
As I listened to trainer Ken McPeek and jockey Edgar Prado after the race, I realized their win was not a fluke. Victory was the result of several intelligent Brandon Carlo Jersey Youth , small business management and decision making. Apply these same actions consistently, and you can win your own "Belmont Stakes:"
Learn from your mistakes.
Just before the Belmont, Ken McPeek was fired as Harlan's Holiday's trainer (the "better" horse). Instead of becoming bitter, McPeek learned a management lesson from the experience. He analyzed his past actions and took steps to improve. As a result Chris Wagner Jersey Youth , he brought Sarava in days early so the horse could get a feel for the track. After the race, it was noted that all three of the top Belmont finishers had trained on the track days before the race.
We have all been criticized for our management performance, actions, or ideas. It is easy to become defensive Anders Bjork Jersey Youth , blame others, and dismiss the criticism as off base. Next time, when you receive a criticism or suffer a business set back, use it as a learning opportunity. Look for the grain of truth in the criticism or figure out what you could have done differently and take action to improve.
Have faith in yourself.
In each of two interviews Bobby Orr Jersey Youth , Prado's first point was that he and McPeek had kept the faith. They did not give up despite what others thought. This was not blind faith, however. They saw signs of a champion in Sarava that others overlooked. They developed those strengths and they persevered.
Critics are rarely as close as you are to a situation. They do not know all the details and cannot understand all that you are thinking. When you see an opportunity that others do not, take a cue from these winners and persevere.
Don't automatically dismiss the underdog.
Sarava was McPeek's third string horse. After losing two early favorites -- one to injury, the second when the horse's owner moved him to another trainer -- he was left with the underdog David Pastrnak Jersey Youth , Sarava. It would have been easy to give up the dream. Instead, while others ogled expected winner War Emblem and superstar trainer Bob Baffert, McPeek looked for strengths in his own horse and saw what others did not -- a winner.
