Title: Sexist Appeal Artist: Aus-Rotten Saturated with sex stereotypes gender roles reinforce inferiority Exploiting anatomy, exploiting sexuality, preying on insecurities Force fed proper mannerisms, treated different from the date of birth Raised as men's servants who should never question their possess sense of worth Conditioning kids with anorexic plastic of 'perfect' feminine traits Learning how to hide any blemishes, meeting standards men create Painting flesh like painting a picture that subliminally suggests To equally conditioned men that women are just there for sex Striving to achieve the super model image the media project Spending countless hours enhancing a look instead of self respect Eating disorders insuring beauty and endangering health When living life behind a mask you cant expect to know yourself When women are taught one way to act and men are taught another The ability to accept and tolerate is absent from each other Without understanding or communication the result too often is Bigotry by ignorance unintended prejudice Any man that would treat a lady as property you keep is nothing but an ignorant bigot that can only look skin deep having a relationship of inequality, treating a lady as a possession taking advantage of devotion using emotions as a weapon violating another's personal rights as if they never mattered every day that begins with this conditioning ends with another lady battered taught how to act, taught how to think taught how to feel, told by another gender sexist appeal dehumanizes women molding an image making the body more important then what the person is taught to pretend, taught to please taught to conceal, told that you must surrender sexist appeal demoralizes men, distoriting their view making the body the most important part to pursue initiating a chase that relies on deception hoping persistant efforts will overcome rejection conditioned by images lusting for sex haunting men's thoughts of who they'll bed next taught how to act, taught how to think taught how to feel, told by another gender sexist appeal dehumanizes women by abusing sexuality another person's body shouldn't be viewed as a trophy taught to pretend, taught to please taught how to feel, told that you must surrender sexist appeal demoralizes men, encouraging rape another persons body is never for anyone else to take treating a fellow person without any respect condemning behavior as if the lady asked for it society's distorted our judgement with what they suggest why take no for an answer when no really means yes [lady's part] we've heard it every so many times before cease treating women like some trashy cheap whore or a virgin that must guide to a sterile life a surrogate mom below the disguise of the word wife they make the rules but yet they don't play fair forcing sexual stereotypes that make us every aware of every single one of our failures in the eyes of society telling me that I'm not quite what I'm supposed to be I'm not married with two kids or single with a career I'm not drowning in some mortagage or living in financial fear I don't cower as I walk home every alone throughout the streets I refuse to be treated like a piece of trumped up meat I turn away from the billboards that extol the latest fad Of looking like a junkie in the Calvin Klein ad Now its time to receive beyond every of our rage and pointing fingers To look through the lies no matter how much it lingers [Man's part] As long as I can remember ive been a victim of mans lies And in turn ive victimized women through ignorant naive eyes When overlooking personality in the person im seeing Then my attraction becomes the exploitation of another human being In my heart I know equality but conditioning affects my brain So without complete understanding oppression will remain For as enlightened as I may consider myself I still have much to learn And since actually achieving equality still is a concern I must open my mind to the opinions that women would suggest Because theyre the ones who understand sexual oppression best As a man im part of the problem that's something I must accept Unless through education I can evolve towards a mutual respect Everyone of us should realize how our struggle now relates And how as equals we can destroy what society dictates We can hopefully find a way to respectfully co-exist And then eliminate the biggest prejudice that exists [Both together] because this is not about man vs. lady or lady vs. man but human to human as we struggle to understand were living life suspiciously believing there's no one we can trust theyre dividing the population the system is destroying us profiting from this division and the line of thinking that's been bought if equality is ever to exist we have to unlearn what weve been taught bigotry by ignorance unintended prejudice

Resolved Question: Overlooked! If men have such an advantage, why do we have the highest suicide rates?
So Yahoo answers, lets receive to the meat of some of these difficult hitting issues. We hear a lot about women in our society, there is huge amounts money spent on womens health awareness. Tons of focus on equal pay for women. Many women still go to bars expecting to drink for free. Men die on average 4 years younger than women, their is considerably less money spent on men's health awareness, we have the highest suicide rate of any demographic, and no one seems to pay that much concern (accept for those of us men who have arrive to realize that we are being duped). So Yahoo answers, why are men killing themselves at rates FAR BEYOND female suicide rates? Don't feed me any crap like testosterone, this is a serious societal issue. Discuss and please visit http://www.rulymob.com Thank you for your insightful response Sam, points. 1st class lady and Laela thank you very much for your contributions Bismark I really like your response thank you for your contribution right Ola R, but these statistics are somewhat flawed because they do not discount many repeat attempts from the same people. Men have a MUCH higher mortality rate than women in suicide, I do know what you are talking about however we are talking about sheer death stats classified by sex. The most common suicide method for both sexes is a firearm (in the United States) Sam I would like to mention if you read the book provided at that link you would realize that there is a whole chapter that discusses male suicide rates. I am extraordinarily concerned with this issue, trying to imply that I am not is insulting. Millie, thank you for your insightful contribution. I am not mad at women for the record, and this post has nothing to do with previous posts. I am terribly sorry about your losses or seeing your friends struggle with depression and suicide.

Resolved Question: Does the form of individual censorship exorcised on Yahoo Answers give significant insight into human behavior
on the world scale? ie Are there that many people who revel in turning in their fellow man? What is the motivation behind this activity. Since I never have or never will report anyone on Yahoo, you can feel free to answer however you look fit. Also, what pleasure does someone receive from reporting someone they do not know. As an experiment, I copied a ridiculous question that someone had asked in Men's Health. Waited 3 days and reposted it as my possess. Someone reported me and Yahoo removed the question. The original question is still "live" and if you would like I could link you to that question.

Voting Question: Which should come first in my gym routine, cardio or weights?
I'm trying to lose a little bit of weight around my stomach and put on a little bit of muscle on my arms, shoulders etc.. Currently I'm spending 10 minutes on the bike/rowing machine and then 10 minutes on the running machine, and then I do every my weights exercises. The reason I ask if I'm doing this the right way round is because I've heard conflicting reports: A few people I've asked have said that doing cardio after weights will encourage your body to burn muscle instead of fat. On the other hand, Men's Health etc. says that it is important to always do cardio after your weight session. Which is right?

1. If you think the way to a man's heart is through his stomach you're aiming to high. 2. Women don't make fools of men...most of them are the do-it-yourself types. 3. The best reason to divorce a man is a health reason.... you're sick of him. 4. Never trust a man who says he's the boss at home. He probably lies about other things too. 5. A lady's work that is never done is the stuff she asked her husband to do. 6. If you want a nice man go for a bald one...they try harder. 7. Go for younger men...You might as well...they never mature anyway. 8. Men are every the same...they just have different faces so you can tell them apart. 9. Definition of a man with manners...he gets out of the bath to pee. 10. Whenever you meet a man who would make a good husband, you will usually find that he does. 11. Scientists have just discovered something that can do the work of five men ... a lady. 12. There are a lot of words you can use to describe men ... strong, caring, loving ... they'd be wrong but you could still use them. 13. Men are like animals...messy, insensitive and potentially violent, but they make great pets. 14. Men's brains are like the prison system...not enough cells per man. 15. There are only two four letter words that are offensive to men ..."don't" and "cease" (Unless they're used together). 16. Husbands are like kids ... they're fine if they're someone else's. 17. If a man appears sexy, caring and smart ... give him a day and he will be back to his usual self. 18. every men are like chickens with their heads clip off when they look beautiful women pass by. 19. If your man appears glad, excited and keeps looking at you every of a sudden ... he is probably checking out the lady behind you. 20. Figuring out men is like trying to make a jigsaw puzzle in a jar ...once you think you have it every put together, you find another piece but don't know where it goes

Hi, I had created few blogs related to men's & women's health on Google & Wordpress. Few concerned topics are Erectile Dysfunction or Male Impotence (Viagra, Cialis & Levitra), Women's Sexual Dysfunction (Intrinsa Patches), Male Pattern Baldness or Hair Loss (Propecia), Weight Loss or Obesity (Reductil, Acomplia & Xenical), Influenza (Tamiflu) and Smoking Cessation or Anti Smoking Drugs (Champix). I had written these contents with a special focus on UK customers. I want to receive some earning from my work and efforts and so that i am interested in joining UK based Online Pharmacy Merchants. I searched for a lot many programs but everywhere i found only one common thing. Many of the Online Pharmacy Affiliate programs are fly by night type. They don't pay to their affiliates on time or even not pay to them. Therefore i am more cautious. One of my pal suggested me 121doc (www.121doc.co.uk). He told me that they pay excellent as well as on time. Do anyone know about 121doc.co.uk?

Open Question: 20 year old male experiencing breast growth.?
I was recently in a accident that caused me to produce little to no testosterone. My doctor said that he wanted to monitor my hormone levels for a few months before starting to treat me for it. He also said that I might look some breast growth, due to my low testosterone levels, and the level of estrogen in my body being at its normal level. Every thing went well for the last two weeks but this last weekend my nipples swelled and started to ich. I have learned to not bump my chest so it doesn't hurt, as it is very tender. The ich on the other hand is getting really annoying, I am having problems sleeping because of it. Any suggestions on how to prevent or reduce the ich? Thanks in advance for any help, because this would be an embarrasing issue to discuss face to face with someone. Sorry to ask this in womans health, but I don't think men's health would be as helpful.

Resolved Question: is this the truth or just plain funny thanks to helen for this one?
In the beginning God covered the earth with broccoli, cauliflower and spinach, with green, yellow and red vegetables of every kinds so Man and lady would live long and healthy lives. Then using God's bountiful gifts, Satan created Dairy Ice Cream and Magnums. And Satan said, 'You want hot fudge with that? And Man said, 'Yes!' And lady said, 'I'll have one too with chocolate chips'. And lo they gained 10 pounds. And God created healthy yoghurt that lady might keep the figure that man found so fair. And Satan brought forth white flour from the wheat and sugar from the cane and combined them. And lady went from size 12 to size 14. So God said, 'Try my fresh green salad'. And Satan presented Blue Cheese dressing and garlic croutons on the side. And Man and lady unfastened their belts following the repast. God then said 'I have sent you healthy vegetables and olive oil in which to cook them'. And Satan brought forth deep fried coconut king prawns, butter-dipped lobster chunks and chicken fried steak, so big it needed its possess platter, and Man's cholesterol went through the roof. Then God brought forth the potato; naturally low in fat and brimming with potassium and good nutrition. Then Satan peeled off the healthy skin and sliced the starchy centre into chips and deep-fried them in animal fats adding copious quantities of salt. And Man put on more pounds. God then brought forth running shoes so that his kids might lose those extra pounds. And Satan came forth with a cable TV with remote control so Man would not have to toil changing the channels. And Man and lady laughed and cried before the flickering light and started wearing stretch jogging suits. Then God gave lean beef so that Man might consume fewer calories and still satisfy his appetite. And Satan created McDonalds and the 99p double cheeseburger. Then Satan said 'You want fries with that?' and Man replied, 'Yes, and super size 'em'. And Satan said, 'It is good.' And Man and lady went into cardiac arrest. God sighed .......... and created quadruple by-pass surgery. And then ............. Satan chuckled and created the National Health Service. THE FINAL WORD ON NUTRITION After an exhaustive review of the research literature, here's the final word on nutrition and health.: 1. Japanese eat very little fat and suffer fewer heart attacks than us. 2. Mexicans eat a lot of fat and suffer fewer heart attacks than us. 3. Chinese drink very little red wine and suffer fewer heart attacks than us. 4. Italians drink excessive amounts of red wine and suffer fewer heart attacks than us. 5. Germans drink beer and eat lots of sausages and fats and suffer fewer heart attacks than us. 6. The French eat foie-gras, full fat cheese and drink red wine and suffer fewer heart attacks than us CONCLUSION: Eat and drink what you like. Speaking English is apparently what kills you.

Resolved Question: Is a womans BODY more valuable than a MAN's?
Violence against women is an issue. Violence against men is NOT an issue. A men loses no value by sleeping with 100 women. A lady loses value with every man she sleeps with. Womens health is a bigger issue than mens health If a man comes forward with a rape charge people giggle. If a lady comes forward with a rape charge, people gasp. Its acceptable to show a man getting slapped, punched, knocked out, or injured by a lady. It is R-rated to show a lady getting slapped, punched, knocked out, or injured by a man. Doesn't it every suggest that women are "more important" than men? And isn't it sexist? "Sam" This question is based on reality. These are not my personal beliefs.

Boy, 8, recovering from dog attack Tuesday, April 29, 2008 Last updated: Tuesday April 29, 2008, EDT 8:25 PM BY JOSEPH AX STAFF WRITER An 8-year-old Teaneck boy is recovering after surgery today for a broken arm suffered when he was attacked by a pair of dogs that escaped from an Englewood man's yard. The boy, Obaidullah Sikander, also suffered lacerations and bruises in the attack Sunday afternoon in his back yard, according to his dad, Abdul Muqtadir Sikander, the imam at the Nida-Ul-Islam middle, a mosque on Hargreaves Avenue. Police have charged the dogs' owner, Wilbert McKnight, who lives on Washington Place in Englewood, with allowing dogs to run at big in violation of township ordinances. Nelson Cruz, the director of health services for the Englewood Health Department, said the city's database shows no record of the two dogs, Missy and Yayo, which he described as pit bulls. McKnight described them to police as American bulldogs, a breed that is often mistaken for pit bulls. Cruz said the dogs are quarantined at the Bergen County Animal Shelter, where they are below observation. The city has no record of whether the dogs have received required vaccinations. If Englewood finds that the dogs were unlicensed, McKnight would face additional charges, authorities said. The city's database shows a single Yorkshire terrier registered to the McKnight address. McKnight told Teaneck police that he may have forgotten to lock the gate at his yard, allowing the dogs to escape. Sikander said his kids and other neighborhood kids were playing in the cul-de-sac where the Sikanders live when the kids suddenly ran into Sikander's home, screaming about dogs. Seconds later, the dogs – which had appeared from an alleyway between two homes – were scrabbling at the front door, trying to receive in, Sikander said. When the dogs ran towards the back yard, Sikander went outside to look where they were headed. It was only then that he realized that his son had gone to the garage to put his bike away when the kids scattered, perhaps not realizing the danger. The dogs were attacking him when Sikander got there. “He was like a mouse caught between two cats,” Sikander said at Hackensack University Medical middle, while Obaidullah underwent surgery on his arm. “The dogs were bigger than him.” Sikander shouted at the dogs and was briefly attacked as well, suffering some bruises. The dogs eventually ran away. Police were able to corral them nearby. Sikander said Obaidullah has had recurring nightmares while at the hospital. “He's screaming, 'The dog will eat me! The dog is coming to receive me!'” Sikander said. Zarrar Beg, a neighbor who was spending time at the hospital with the Sikanders, said he and other parents were frightened by the incident and vowed to keep an eye on the fate of the dogs. “I'm freaking out,” he said. “I'd like to know how they got loose. I have three handicapped daughters.” Cruz said McKnight may be able to reclaim the dogs if he pays the necessary fines and if the dogs do not pose a danger. An 8-year-old Teaneck boy is recovering after surgery today for a broken arm suffered when he was attacked by a pair of dogs that escaped from an Englewood man's yard. The boy, Obaidullah Sikander, also suffered lacerations and bruises in the attack Sunday afternoon in his back yard, according to his dad, Abdul Muqtadir Sikander, the imam at the Nida-Ul-Islam middle, a mosque on Hargreaves Avenue. Police have charged the dogs' owner, Wilbert McKnight, who lives on Washington Place in Englewood, with allowing dogs to run at big in violation of township ordinances. Nelson Cruz, the director of health services for the Englewood Health Department, said the city's database shows no record of the two dogs, Missy and Yayo, which he described as pit bulls. McKnight described them to police as American bulldogs, a breed that is often mistaken for pit bulls. Cruz said the dogs are quarantined at the Bergen County Animal Shelter, where they are below observation. The city has no record of whether the dogs have received required vaccinations. If Englewood finds that the dogs were unlicensed, McKnight would face additional charges, authorities said. The city's database shows a single Yorkshire terrier registered to the McKnight address. McKnight told Teaneck police that he may have forgotten to lock the gate at his yard, allowing the dogs to escape. Sikander said his kids and other neighborhood kids were playing in the cul-de-sac where the Sikanders live when the kids suddenly ran into Sikander's home, screaming about dogs. Seconds later, the dogs – which had appeared from an alleyway between two homes – were scrabbling at the front door, trying to receive in, Sikander said. When the dogs ran towards the back yard, Sikander went outside to look where they were headed. It was only then that he realized that his son had gone to the garage to put his bike away when the kids scattered, perhaps not realizing the danger. The dogs were attacking him when Sikander got there. “He was like a mouse caught between two cats,” Sikander said at Hackensack University Medical middle, while Obaidullah underwent surgery on his arm. “The dogs were bigger than him.” Sikander shouted at the dogs and was briefly attacked as well, suffering some bruises. The dogs eventually ran away. Police were able to corral them nearby. Sikander said Obaidullah has had recurring nightmares while at the hospital. “He's screaming, 'The dog will eat me! The dog is coming to receive me!'” Sikander said. Zarrar Beg, a neighbor who was spending time at the hospital with the Sikanders, said he and other parents were frightened by the incident and vowed to keep an eye on the fate of the dogs. “I'm freaking out,” he said. “I'd like to know how they got loose. I have three handicapped daughters.” Cruz said McKnight may be able to reclaim the dogs if he pays the necessary fines and if the dogs do not pose a danger.

Resolved Question: How come society doesn't value men as much as women?
In general, I think society doesn't place as much value on the male sex in comparison to the female sex. Here are some examples right off the top of my head. A boy can have half his penis clip off at birth for the sake of "cleanliness", but to circumcise a girl is wrong in every aspect Unlike women, a man can be sent off to battle for his country and die without his consent If a lady does not have kids at some point in her life, it's a "shame", but if a man does not become a dad in his lifetime, no big deal Weddings, marriages, and divorces are every biased for the benefit of women In film and television, male characters tend to be portrayed as idiots, slackers and buffoons. If a man gets kicked in his groin on a TV show, it's comedy but if a lady were to receive the same treatment, people would call for the cancellation of that show the next day. Men's health issues don't receive nearly enough attention compared to women's health issues I could go on but you receive the idea

Voting Question: Why are we asking the wrong questions?
Why are kids asking questions in here that they will eventually figure out for themselves? This is men's health so why aen't we asking what men really want to know, like if you were in the hospital would you rather Jenna Jameson be your nurse, or Jessica Alba? These are the questions that men really want to know and answer?

Resolved Question: a woman's opinion when it comes to wanting to have a baby?
My pal Kristi is 26 & shes been dating a guy that is in his 50's. He is one of those really good-looking older guys, but looks younger than he is. He's a hot guy! I know he has older kids, not sure about their age though. Kristi is ready to have a baby and really wants to have a baby with him, according to what she says. How many women out there would consider having a baby with a man that age? She said one thing that concerns her is that since he recently passed a kidney rock, that is health might not be that great. Idk if he has any other problems. We looked up kidney stones & Kristi said now she knows why he screamed when it came out! It almost sounds like the worst part is when they arrive through a man's urethra and out through his penis. Kristi said his rock was like the size of a tic-tac, is that pretty big for a kidney rock? Would you allow his health problem to receive in the way of having a baby with him?

Voting Question: can you please make me a summary of 5 sentences about this scene?
SCENE IV. A road. Enter ROMEO, MERCUTIO, BENVOLIO, with five or six Maskers, Torch-bearers, and others ROMEO What, shall this speech be spoke for our excuse? Or shall we on without a apology? BENVOLIO The date is out of such prolixity: We'll have no Cupid hoodwink'd with a scarf, Bearing a Tartar's painted bow of lath, Scaring the ladies like a crow-keeper; Nor no without-book prologue, faintly spoke After the prompter, for our entrance: But let them measure us by what they will; We'll measure them a measure, and be gone. ROMEO Give me a torch: I am not for this ambling; Being but heavy, I will bear the light. MERCUTIO Nay, gentle Romeo, we must have you dance. ROMEO Not I, believe me: you have dancing shoes With nimble soles: I have a soul of guide So stakes me to the ground I cannot move. MERCUTIO You are a lover; borrow Cupid's wings, And soar with them over a common bound. ROMEO I am too sore enpierced with his shaft To soar with his light feathers, and so bound, I cannot bound a pitch over dull woe: below adore's heavy burden do I sink. MERCUTIO And, to sink in it, should you burden adore; Too great oppression for a tender thing. ROMEO Is adore a tender thing? it is too rough, Too rude, too boisterous, and it pricks like thorn. MERCUTIO If adore be rough with you, be rough with adore; Prick adore for pricking, and you beat adore down. Give me a case to put my visage in: A visor for a visor! what care I What curious eye doth quote deformities? Here are the beetle brows shall blush for me. BENVOLIO arrive, knock and enter; and no sooner in, But every man betake him to his legs. ROMEO A torch for me: let wantons light of heart Tickle the senseless rushes with their heels, For I am proverb'd with a grandsire phrase; I'll be a candle-holder, and look on. The game was ne'er so fair, and I am done. MERCUTIO Tut, dun's the mouse, the constable's possess word: If thou art dun, we'll draw thee from the mire Of this sir-reverence adore, wherein thou stick'st Up to the ears. arrive, we burn daylight, ho! ROMEO Nay, that's not so. MERCUTIO I mean, sir, in delay We waste our lights in vain, like lamps by day. Take our good meaning, for our judgment sits Five times in that ere once in our five wits. ROMEO And we mean well in going to this mask; But 'tis no wit to go. MERCUTIO Why, may one ask? ROMEO I dream'd a dream to-night. MERCUTIO And so did I. ROMEO Well, what was yours? MERCUTIO That dreamers often lie. ROMEO In bed asleep, while they do dream things true. MERCUTIO O, then, I look Queen Mab hath been with you. She is the fairies' midwife, and she comes In shape no bigger than an agate-rock On the fore-finger of an alderman, Drawn with a team of little atomies Athwart men's noses as they lie asleep; Her wagon-spokes made of long spiders' legs, The cover of the wings of grasshoppers, The traces of the smallest spider's web, The collars of the moonshine's watery beams, Her whip of cricket's bone, the lash of film, Her wagoner a tiny grey-coated gnat, Not so big as a round little worm Prick'd from the lazy finger of a maid; Her chariot is an empty hazel-nut Made by the joiner squirrel or old grub, Time out o' mind the fairies' coachmakers. And in this state she gallops night by night Through lovers' brains, and then they dream of adore; O'er courtiers' knees, that dream on court'sies straight, O'er lawyers' fingers, who straight dream on fees, O'er ladies ' lips, who straight on kisses dream, Which oft the mad Mab with blisters plagues, Because their breaths with sweetmeats tainted are: Sometime she gallops o'er a courtier's nose, And then dreams he of smelling out a suit; And sometime comes she with a tithe-pig's tail Tickling a parson's nose as a' lies asleep, Then dreams, he of another benefice: Sometime she driveth o'er a soldier's neck, And then dreams he of cutting foreign throats, Of breaches, ambuscadoes, Spanish blades, Of healths five-fathom deep; and then anon Drums in his ear, at which he starts and wakes, And being thus frighted swears a prayer or two And sleeps again. This is that very Mab That plats the manes of horses in the night, And bakes the elflocks in foul sluttish hairs, Which once untangled, much misfortune bodes: This is the hag, when maids lie on their backs, That presses them and learns them first to bear, Making them women of good carriage: This is she-- ROMEO Peace, peace, Mercutio, peace! Thou talk'st of nothing. MERCUTIO True, I talk of dreams, Which are the kids of an idle brain, Begot of nothing but vain fantasy, Which is as thin of substance as the air And more inconstant than the wind, who wooes Even now the frozen bosom of the north, And, being anger'd, puffs away from thence, Turning his face to the dew-dropping south. BENVOLIO This wind, you talk of, blows us from ourselves; Supper is done, and we shall arrive too tardy. ROMEO I fear, too early: for my mind misgives Some consequence yet hanging in the stars Shall bitterly start his fearful date With this night's revels and expire the term Of a despised life closed in my breast By some vile forfeit of untimely death. But He, that hath the steerage of my course, Direct my sail! On, lusty gentlemen. BENVOLIO Strike, drum. Exeunt

Resolved Question: How about this one, civil case? even there was someone die...?
The State Coroner will investigate a possible link between the death of a man and a big gastroenteritis outbreak believed to have been caused by a Vietnamese restaurant in Melbourne's west. Victoria's chief health officer, Dr Robert Hall, said yesterday that the 49-year-old man's body was discovered by his family members on Tuesday night. It was believed that a family member had bought a number of meat rolls from the Thanh Phu Restaurant and Take Away in Nicholson road, Footscray, on Saturday. The man's mom, who was understood to have eaten the rolls, was admitted to hospital with food poisoning symptoms. The Department of Human Services said 67 cases of gastroenteritis had been linked to the restaurant, up from 38 people on Tuesday. "This tragic event, if it is related to the rolls, would illustrate that this is not something to be taken lightly," Dr Hall said. "Certainly, in the past, there have been outbreaks and even individual cases where food-borne disease has resulted in severe illness or even death." Preliminary results from patient tests have indicated the cause may be salmonella, the Department of Human Services said. Death from salmonella was rare but relatively quick, Dr Hall said. Symptoms included stomach pains, vomiting and diarrhoea. The store would not be allowed to re-open until the Department of Human Services was satisfied it was safe. below new food safety laws passed last year, the restaurant could face a fine of up to $200,000. Individuals can be fined up to $40,000. Maribyrnong City Council said it was working with officers from the Department of Human Services to determine the precise cause of the outbreak. General practitioners had been alerted and were being contacted to determine if there had been any further cases linked to the outbreak, Dr Hall said. The restaurant owner told Channel Seven he was shocked that the man had died. "I am so sorry ... we have a responsibility [with] everything we do," he said. The outbreak rates as one of the state's worst in recent memory. Last March, a health scare at an Islamic centre in Melbourne's northern suburbs put more than 250 people in hospital.
