   Malaria - 5 Billion Deaths     

 

Mosquito - A small fly, occurring worldwide, especially in the tropics. It has long legs and a slender abdomen. In most species the males feed on plant juices, while the females suck the blood of mammals, often transmitting serious diseases - including malaria and yellow fever.

Malaria -  A serious, acute and chronic relapsing infection in humans, an infectious disease caused by a protozoa of the genus Plasmodium. Characterized by periodic attacks of chills and fever, anaemia, enlargement of the spleen - splenomegaly, and often fatal complications. Malaria is spread by the female Anopheles mosquito, which lives only in the tropics. Different species of Plasmodium cause different types of Malaria. Malignant Tertian Malaria, caused by P. falciparum, is the most severe; benign tertian malaria, caused by P. vivax,  is less often fatal but there are repeated attacks.

The parasites invade the red blood cells making them burst, causing fever, fits, diarrhoea, shock, and jaundice. Drugs can treat and prevent the disease, but malaria remains a major cause of death and ill health in the tropics.

Malaria also is found in apes, monkeys, rats, birds, and reptiles. It is caused by various species of protozoa, a one-celled organism - called Sporozoans, that belong to the genus Plasmodium. These parasites are transmitted to humans by the bite of various species of mosquitoes belonging to the genus Anopheles.

The MOSQUITO - plural Mosquitoes, or Mosquitos - Family Culicidae, any of the familiar insects, numbering about 2,500 species, that are important in public health because of the bloodsucking habits of the females. Mosquitoes are known to transmit such serious diseases as yellow fever, malaria, filariasis, and dengue. See also dipteran.

The slender, elongated body of the adult is covered with scales; in addition the mosquito is characterized by its long, fragile-looking legs and its mouthparts, which are contained in an elongated proboscis. The threadlike antennae of the male are generally bushier than those of the female. The males, and sometimes the females, feed on nectar and other plant juices. In most species, however, the females require a blood meal in order to mature their eggs, which are laid on the surface of water. Different species of mosquitoes show preferences and, in many cases, narrow restrictions as to host animals.

The eggs laid by mosquitoes hatch into aquatic larvae, or wrigglers, which swim with a jerking, wriggling movement and feed on algae and organic debris; a few are predatory and may even feed on other mosquitoes. Unlike most insects, mosquitoes in the pupal stage, called tumblers, are active and free-swimming. The pupae breathe by means of tubes on the thorax. The adults mate soon after emerging from their pupal cases. The duration of the life cycle varies greatly depending on the species.

Malignant Tertian Malaria, caused by P. falciparum, is the most severe; benign tertian malaria, caused by P. vivax,  is less often fatal but there are repeated attacks.

Mosquitoes are apparently attracted to host animals by moisture, lactic acid, carbon dioxide, body heat, and movement. The mosquito's hum results from the high frequency of its wing beats; the female's slightly lower frequency may serve as a means of sex recognition.

Measures used to control mosquitoes include the elimination of breeding sites, the application of surface films of oil to clog the breathing tubes of wrigglers, and the use of larvicides. Synthetic organic insecticides may be used to destroy adult mosquitoes indoors.

There are three important mosquito genera. Anopheles, the only known carrier of malaria, also transmits filariasis and encephalitis. Anopheles mosquitoes are easily recognized in their resting position, in which the proboscis, head, and body are held on a straight line to each other but at an angle to the surface. The spotted colouring on the wings results from colored scales. Breeding usually occurs in water containing heavy vegetation. The female deposits her eggs singly on the water surface. Anopheles larvae lie parallel to the water surface and breathe through posterior spiracular plates on the abdomen instead of through a tube, as do most other mosquito larvae. The life cycle is from 18 days to several weeks.

The genus Culex is a carrier of viral encephalitis and, in tropical and subtropical climates, of filariasis. It holds its body parallel to the resting surface and its proboscis is bent downward relative to the surface. The wings, with scales on the veins and the margin, are uniform in color. The tip of the female's abdomen is blunt and has retracted cerci (sensory appendages). Breeding may occur on almost any body of fresh water, including standing polluted water. The eggs, which float on the water, are joined in masses of about 100 or more. The long and slender Culex larvae have breathing tubes that contain hair tufts; they lie head downward at an angle of 45° from the water surface. The life cycle, usually 10to 14 days, may be longer in cold weather. C. pipiens pipiens is the most abundant house mosquito in northern regions; C. pipiens quinquefasciatus is abundant in southern regions.

The genus Aedes carries yellow fever, dengue, and encephalitis. Like Culex, it holds its body parallel to the surface with the proboscis bent down. The wings are uniformly colored. Aedes may be distinguished from Culex by its silver thorax with white markings and posterior spiracular bristles. The tip of the female's abdomen is pointed and has protruding cerci. Aedes usually breeds in floodwater, rain pools, or salt marshes, the eggs being capable of withstanding long periods of dryness. The short, stout larvae have a breathing tube containing a pair of tufts; the larvae hang head down at a 45° angle from the water surface. The life cycle may be as short as 10 days or, in cool weather, as long as several months. A. aegypti, the important carrier of yellow fever, has white bands on its legs and spots on its abdomen and thorax. This domestic species breeds in almost any kind of container, from flower pots to discarded car-tire casings. A. sollicitans, A. taeniorhynchus, and A. dorsalis are important salt-marsh mosquitoes. They are prolific.

 The Mosquito 

 The Genus Culex 

 

The Mosquito has been around a long time. This insect could contain the DNA of a small mammal that died over 100 million years ago, a small creature that could well be your ancestor.

Mosquito  -  A small flying biting insect that could be described as a type of Fly. It lives worldwide, especially in the tropics. It has long legs and a slender abdomen, Culex Forma. In most species the males feed on plant juices or nectar. The females puncture the skin with a long proboscis, to suck the blood of mammals, quite often transmitting serious diseases, including Malaria, Dengue Fever, Encephalitis and Yellow Fever. The mosquito is not strictly a parasite.

Parasite   -   An organism living in or on another organism of a different species, called the host, from which it obtains food and protection. Many parasites have complex life cycles, with one or more intermediate hosts, of different species, supporting them during their development. The study of parasites - parasitology - is of importance in medicine since many parasites, such as bacteria, fungi, either cause or transmit disease. Many plants are either partly or completely parasitic.

It has long legs and a slender abdomen, Culex Forma. In most species the males feed on plant juices, while the females suck the blood of mammals, quite often transmitting serious diseases, including malaria, Dengue Fever,  Encephalitis and yellow fever.

There are around 2,500 different species of mosquito throughout the world, of which 150 kinds live in the United States of America. One female can lay over 200 eggs at a time, and these mosquito eggs can survive for more than five years, lying in stasis waiting for a sufficient amount of water to trigger life. Every mosquito needs water to complete the first three stages of it's life-cycle. 

Not all species want to bite humans; some prefer birds, others prefer horses, and some will even bite frogs and turtles, but like the flea they will go off-specie, when survival depends on it. Only the females take blood, the males either never feed or only on plant nectar. 

Size for size, the mosquito can fly extensive distances and whilst some of the genus remain close to their place of birth, others can fly 20 miles or more. In human terms this is like around the world twice. 

Mosquitoes do not live in grass or shrubbery, their main habitat is the air, although some adults rest in these areas during daylight hours, during the night depending on personal liking they are off hunting. Mosquitoes are directly responsible for more human deaths and illnesses than any other living creature, including Man. 

Historically, they are also a clear leader; depending on how far you wish to go back in the chronicle of humankind, over 50 billion people have died by being bitten by mosquitoes.

The Flea life cycle

Understanding how fleas live, and breed, makes it easier to understand the best methods available to eradicate a flea problem.

EGGS.   One female adult flea can lay anything from one to FORTY eggs each day, with the highest concentration of egg-laying occurring in the final two to three days of life. Eggs are oval, around 0.5mm long, white and rounded at both ends. The eggs are not sticky so once laid, they immediately fall onto the ground, wherever the host is at that time.

Depending upon the temperature and most importantly, humidity, the eggs will hatch into larvae within two to ten days. Humidity below 50% may cause them to dry out and become food for luckier hatchlings. The environment in which the eggs are deposited is therefore of prime consideration to flea survival rate and helps to explain why warmer winters and hot summers have increased flea populations considerably in recent years. Homes should be well aired and this will help the drying effect and possibly protect against not only fleas but also the dust-mite.

LARVAE. A larva will hatch from an egg using a chitin tooth - an egg splitting spine on its head. This disappears when the larva changes into the second of its three 'molts' or development stages. It is this tooth that is changed by modern oral flea treatments. Treatments contain an insect development inhibitor renders the chitin tooth ineffective, this prevents the larvae from cutting his way out.

Larvae are semi-transparent and sparsely covered in short hairs. They are usually white with a yellow-brownish head and are generally quite active. They are dependent on a diet of adult flea faeces for survival, but will also feed on other organic debris in your carpet. In this domestic environment, flea larvae are found at the base of the carpet pile, where they can encounter food, are sheltered by the canopy of carpet fiber and can keep away from direct light. So it is clear that the more powerful any vacuum cleaner you have the greater ability for it to suck these little varmints out and into the dust container for disposal.

PUPAE.   After the third moult, the larva moves to an undisturbed place to begin spinning a silk cocoon coated with particles of debris picked up from its surroundings for use as camouflage.   It is within the cocoon that the larvae turns into the next stage of development - the pupa. Pupae subjected to suitable hatching conditions can emerge as adult fleas as early as three to five days following pupation. From this stage, the adult flea develops. The fully formed adult flea remains in the cocoon until stimulated to hatch by, for example, warmth, vibration and even exhaled carbon dioxide from a passing potential host - which includes the human! 

Under certain laboratory conditions fleas have lived dormant like this for up to five years. So even an empty house can harbor these dangers until the unsuspecting new tenant moves in creating the phenomenon known as the 'pupal window' and you need to be aware of it before effective flea treatment can begin.

Environmental sprays and powders cannot readily penetrate the cocoon and therefore have no effect on the maturing adult inside if used on their own. These fleas continue to hatch from their protective cocoons and, unless the flea control regime is maintained, will be the source of the next generation of fleas ready to cause you and your dog more problems!

ADULTS  Almost immediately after the adult flea has hatched from its cocoon, it will begin looking for its first blood meal. Unlike the flea larva, which tends to move away from light, adult fleas move upwards and towards the light, in order to be in a better position to locate a suitable victim.

The flea's eyesight is not brilliant and so warmth and carbon dioxide in the air appear to be answerable for helping it find its goal. Air currents will be changed by a cat or dog moving past the adult flea, the carbon dioxide increases and the flea detects these changes and jumps in the hope of landing in close proximity to the waiting adult. Adult fleas have been known to jump as many as 10,000 times in succession, whilst trying to leap onto a passing cat or dog - the flea knows they are close by but it's more a question of luck than judgment when trying to make a successful connection between the hooks on the flea's legs and the fur on the cat or dog.

However, once satisfactorily 'anchored', the flea will immediately begin to feed and the females will begin laying eggs after only 48 hours after the first feed. Before drinking the blood, the flea secretes special enzymes within its saliva into the wound. This substance softens and spreads the skin tissue, assisting with feeding. More helpfully the saliva contains an anti-coagulant making the blood flow. This saliva is usually the cause of allergic reactions in cats, dogs - and humans.

Once on a suitable host, the adult fleas will remain there until they die, which is usually within one or two weeks. Unfortunately for the pet, although providentially for the parasite population, females tend to live longer than males and there are naturally more females than males. If the animal is left to groom itself normally and cats groom more thoroughly than dogs on the whole, many adult fleas will be dislodged or swallowed naturally. However, if for any reason, the animal is unable to groom itself - it may be ill for example, then the owner should groom it more frequently than usual, to complement their pet's natural methods of flea control.

How Does Your Body Fight Infection?

Immunity   -  The resistance of the body to infection, especially resistance due to antibodies. Babies have passive immunity from antibodies transferred from the mother’s blood through the placenta. Active immunity involves the formation of antibodies after exposure to an antigen - bacteria that invade the body during an infection are antigens. The two different kinds of immune response produced by antibodies involve: white blood cells called T-lymphocytes - produced by the thymus, which produce cells with antibody properties bound to their surface and are responsible for such reactions as graft rejection; B-lymphocytes, which produce cells that release free antibody into the blood.

Leucocyte - lymphocytes - or white blood cell. A colorless cell found in large numbers in the blood. There are several kinds, all involved in the body’s defence mechanisms. Granulocytes and monocytes destroy and feed on bacteria and other microorganisms that cause infection -  see also phagocyte. The lymphocytes are involved with the production of antibodies.

Phagocyte   -  A cell that engulfs and then digests particles from its surroundings: this process is called phagocytosis. In vertebrate animals, phagocytes are a type of white blood cell that protect the body by engulfing bacteria and other foreign particles.

Immunization is the production of immunity by an injection containing antibodies against specific diseases e.g. tetanus and diphtheria, which provides temporary passive immunity, or by vaccination, which produces the longer lasting active immunity.

Antibody   -  A protein produced by certain white blood cells  - lymphocytes that reacts with a particular foreign particle e.g. a bacterium,  that has entered the body. The antibody helps to destroy the foreign particle, known as the antigen. If the same bacteria invade the body in future, many more of the same antibodies are produced, enabling the body to destroy the bacteria very rapidly and so resist infection. This provides the basis of  immunity. Antibodies are also responsible for the rejection of foreign tissue or organ transplants. See also monoclonal antibody.

Monoclonal antibody  -  A type of pure antibody that can be produced artificially in large quantities and used, for example, to distinguish the major blood groups. Mouse lymphocytes producing the required antibody are fused with mouse cancer cells; the resulting hybrid cells multiply rapidly and all produce the same type of antibody as their parent lymphocytes.

Whilst all this bodily protection sounds wonderful, the problem with MRSA, is that there is no defence to it, no answer to its attack. Thank goodness that there is at least some medicinal defence to Malaria

The Mosquito - What is it?

Mosquito A small flying insect that could be described as a type of Fly. It lives worldwide, especially in the tropics. It has long legs and a slender abdomen, Culex Forma. In most species the males feed on plant juices, while the females suck the blood of mammals, quite often transmitting serious diseases, including malaria and yellow fever.

  

 The Mosquito  

There are many varieties of mosquitoes, each of which has a different preferred habitat and behavior, along with a preferred source of blood.  In some ways they are much like other insects, particularly the FLEA. 

The FLEA - The common flea - read all about it here.   Click.

The mosquito is so numerous, and such a ferocious biter of humans and animals, that in many countries there are established agencies to control them. Organized mosquito control is necessary because they are not only an annoyance as ferocious biting insects, but are also involved regularly in transmitting disease to humans and animals.

There are billions of mosquitoes in flight, as we speak. But they are only one kind of insect, among billions of other types of insect. It has been calculated that if all insects could be weighed en masse, their total weight would be FOUR TIMES greater than the total weight of all human beings on the planet.

Mosquito control agencies hopefully reduce mosquito numbers in various ways, including water management, biological control agents, and insecticides.  Insecticides can be effective in controlling their larvae and  or the imagoes, the mosquito adults. 

Mosquito populations can increase rapidly, and, depending on flooding and general weather conditions, mosquito control agencies cannot always keep up with mosquito problems in all areas. Very often, local inhabitants can help appreciably by being alert to these dangers and assist in controlling mosquitoes around their area, homes and properties.

  The mosquito has evolved to need  water  

One of the most important things on the planet is water. We all need water to survive. The mosquito has evolved to need  water in a unique way. It can only breed successfully with the aid of still water. Preferably, it lays its eggs in still water and this can be in a lake, a pond, ditch, an upturned tire, even in tire tracks or even in an old discarded cup or bean-tin, filled with rain.

Still water is an area of water that is non-flowing, so a river would be no good as the off-spring might be swept away. The still water can be almost any water of any amount, stagnant or not. Whilst this shows great opportunistic values, water can also be the mosquito's Achilles Heel.

In most species the males feed on plant juices, while the females suck the blood of mammals, quite often transmitting serious diseases, including malaria and yellow fever.

 

  The Egg, the Larva, the Pupa  

All mosquitoes, like most flying insects, have four stages of development. The Egg, the Larva, the Pupa, and finally the Imago - the adult.

The adult female lays her eggs in still water, some even lay eggs in damp places, such as mud or fallen leaves, a place that she feels may become wet at a future time, due to rain or high tides.

The mosquito then basically spends its first three stages of life, as an egg,  a larva and pupae, all in water.

This water is often stagnant, and the eggs deposited soon hatch into larvae. In the hot summer months, larvae grow rapidly, become pupae, and emerge two to seven days later as a flying adult mosquito. A few important spring species have only one generation per year. However, most species have many generations per year, and their rapid increase in numbers becomes a mammoth problem.

Their only tasks in life are to mate, feed and for the female, lay eggs. Only the female can bite, and therefore fill herself with three times her own weight in blood.

After the adult mosquito surfaces from the aquatic stages, by sliding out of the pupa and the water, they seek a mate. Mosquitoes can mate on the wing, and often during a warm summer evening, we can see them in their thousands, as they dance around each other in an almost cloud of activity.

In most species the males feed on plant juices, while the females suck the blood of mammals, quite often transmitting serious diseases, including malaria and yellow fever.

Mosquitoes are found almost anywhere there is water. Although most people consider mosquitoes to be pests, they are an important part of the ecology and provide food for birds and fish.

Mosquitoes are attracted to bright colors, particularly red, as well as dark colors resembling the fur of animals. They also like sweet or floral scents, as in deodorants and perfumes, but are repelled by body odors. 

The most effective insect repellents are those containing, DEET or diethyltoluamide. Otherwise, wearing heavy, light-colored clothing, foregoing baths, and leaving perfumes and deodorants home are your best options.

Other tricks include standing in a windy area as this prevents mosquitoes from landing on you, standing in the middle of a large flat rock as mosquitoes are more likely to hover over grassy areas, or burning smoky or smelly things in the campfire. Some people swear by burning candles that contain Citronella oil. In fact rub exposed areas with Citronella Oil, Tea-Tree Oil, Pennyroyal, Eucalyptus Oil, Lavender Oil, or Cedar Wood Oil, as they do not like these strong odors.  Eating a lot of garlic is also good as a repellent but it does not only repel insects.

After they have mated, the female then seeks a blood meal to intravenously obtain the protein necessary for the development of her eggs. Without the protein and goodness of her victim's blood, she cannot make her eggs. The female of a few species can produce this first batch of eggs without this blood transfusion. After a blood meal is digested and the eggs are formed and laid, the female mosquito again searches for a prospective mammal to feed off, which helps her produce a second batch of eggs.

   He lives for only a short time after mating.  

Depending on her endurance and the weather, she may repeat this process many times without mating again. The male mosquito does not take a blood meal, but may feed on plant nectar or sap. He lives for only a short time after mating.

Most mosquito species survive the winter as eggs. The cold putting them into a hibernation or stasis, awaiting the spring thaw When waters warm, it triggers the eggs to hatch. A few species though, spend the winter as adults, lying dormant sheltered cool locations, such as cellars, sewers, crawl spaces. With warm spring days, these females at once seek a blood meal and begin the cycle again. Only a few species can overwinter as larvae.  

  Mosquito Carried Diseases  

Mosquito carried diseases, such as Malaria and Yellow Fever, have plagued civilizations for thousands of years. Organized mosquito control around the world has greatly reduced the incidences of these diseases. Mosquito control agencies and health departments cooperate in being aware of these factors and reducing the chance of disease.

It is important to be aware of that the young adult female mosquito, taking her first blood meal does not transmit diseases. As a yet untouched insect, she will only transmit any maladies that she gains from feeding off her host.

It is instead the older female, and then only if she has picked up a disease organism in her first blood meal. Only then can she transmit the disease during her second meal, usually on a yet uninfected host. 

  When mosquitoes are numerous  

When mosquitoes are numerous and interfere with a good normal living, your recreation, and work, you can see that  the diverse measures described below are vital if we are to beat this creature.

The most efficient method of controlling mosquitoes is by reducing the availability of still water, to stop their breeding. As in Flea control, we have advised the humble vacuum cleaner to suck up eggs, and larvae, which breaks the cycle of life for this insect. The lack of water, also breaks the cycle of life, but is perhaps not so easy.

To be able to breed at all, the mosquito female will require water and her uncontrollable urge to lay her eggs will force her to look far and wide if need be,  looking for any possible site. Whilst this shows great opportunistic awareness, water can also be the mosquito's Achilles Heel. take away these opportunities an numbers fall.

When the British dug the Suez Canal, they were beaten by the mosquito, that spread Malaria profusely Eventually a French man, Count Ferdinand De Lesseps, finished it off by taking this creature into account. But when he was asked to build the Panama Canal, he was beaten again by the mosquito. It took the Americans to beat it before it was finished. They came up with the idea of not getting rid of still water, as this was too greater a task, instead they poured fuel oil on ponds and swamps. the oil floated on the surface, some say to only a molecule thick. When the larvae came up to breathe they ingested the oil and were killed.

So large lakes, ponds, and streams that have waves, and contain insect eating fish, and lack aquatic vegetation, that offer protection, are not suitable for the survival of this insect. They only thrive in smaller bodies of water in protected places.

Scrutinize your property and neighborhood and take the following precautions.

  • Dispose of unwanted receptacles, like cans and tires.

  • Clean gutters and drain flat-roofs.

  • Have some fish in ornamental ponds.

  • Change water in birdbaths, fountains, often.

  • Clean and chlorinate swimming pools. When not regularly used, empty.

  • Turn over unused wading pools, anything that is likely to collect rain.

  • Cover rain drums with sheeting when storing rain for gardens.

Mosquito A small flying insect that could be described as a type of Fly. It lives worldwide, especially in the tropics. It has long legs and a slender abdomen, Culex Forma. In most species the males feed on plant juices, while the females suck the blood of mammals, quite often transmitting serious diseases, including malaria and yellow fever.

  If instructions are carried out to the letter  

Numerous commercially available insecticides can be quite successful in controlling larval and even adult mosquitoes. These chemicals are considered adequately safe for use by the public, if instructions are carried out to the letter. If you have a problem and want to diminish the mosquito population in your area, select a product where the label maintains that the material is effective against mosquito larvae and or adults. 

   Various commercially available repellents   

For your own personal comfort, there are various commercially available repellents that can be acquired as creams, lotions, essential oils or in pressurized cans and applied to directly to the skin or  clothing. Candles can be bought for evening el fresco gatherings, whose wax releases a repellent chemical. The usefulness of all repellents vary from place to place, and from person to person, and from mosquito to mosquito. 

   Attracted by human sweat   

Mosquitoes are attracted by human sweat, body warmth, body odor, carbon dioxide from mammal's breath, and light. Mosquito control agencies use some of these attractants to help determine the relative number of adult mosquitoes in any area. Several devices are sold that are supposed to attract, trap, and destroy mosquitoes and other flying insects. However, if these devices are attractive to mosquitoes, they probably attract more mosquitoes into the area and may, therefore, increase rather than decrease mosquito annoyance.

MALARIA - A serious, acute and chronic relapsing infection in humans, characterized by periodic attacks of chills and fever, anemia, enlargement of the spleen - splenomegaly, and often fatal complications. Malaria also is found in apes, monkeys, rats, birds, and reptiles. It is caused by various species of protozoa, a one-celled organism - called Sporozoans, that belong to the genus Plasmodium. These parasites are transmitted to humans by the bite of various species of mosquitoes belonging to the genus Anopheles .

NEW ICE-AGE BY 2080 - READ IT HERE ! ! MITES - Any of about 20,000 species of tiny arthropod invertebrates belonging to the subclass Acari  - sometimes Acarina, or Acarida, of the class Arachnida.  Mites live in varied habitats: in brackish water, in fresh water, in hot springs, in soil, on plants, and as parasites on and in animals. Parasitic forms may live in the nasal passages, lungs, stomach, or deeper body tissues of animals. Some mites are carriers of human and animal diseases. Plant-feeding mites cause damage by feeding on leaf tissues or by transmitting viral diseases.  Mites are small, often microscopic in size—the smallest being about 0.1 mm (0.004 inch) in length and the largest being about 6 mm (0.25 inch)—and they usually have four pairs of legs. In general, they breathe by means of tracheae, or air tubes; in many species, however, respiration takes place through the skin ASTEROIDS - also called minor planet, or planetoid, any of a host of small rocky bodies, about 1,000 km or less in diameter, that orbit the Sun primarily between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter. It is because of their small size and large numbers relative to the nine major planets that asteroids are also called minor planets. The two designations are frequently used interchangeably, though dynamicists, astronomers who study individual objects with dynamically interesting orbits or groups of objects with similar orbital characteristics, generally use the term minor planet, whereas those who study the physical properties of such objects usually refer to them as asteroids. ANTS - any member of the approximately 8,000 species of the insect family Formicidae - order Hymenoptera. Ants occur worldwide but are especially common in hot climates. All ants are social in habit; i.e., they live together in organized colonies, and they range in size from 2 to about 25 millimeters, about 0.08 to 1 inch. Their color is usually yellow, brown, red, or black. A few genera, e.g., Pheidole of North America, have a metallic luster. AIDS - Acquired Immuno Deficiency Syndrome, a fatal transmissible disease of the immune system, caused by the Human Immuno-deficiency Virus  - HIV.    Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome was allegedly first recognized in Zaire, in 1976. Three thousand acres of life-giving plants are still eaten away by some circumstance every hour of every day.   That is FIVE ACRES at every sweep of this clock.        -        CAN YOU HELP?  Greenhouse Effect   -   An effect occurring in the atmosphere because of the presence of certain gases - Greenhouse Gases - water vapor, carbon dioxide, methane, ozone, and nitrous oxide, that absorb infrared radiation. Short-Wave Light and ultraviolet radiation from the sun are able to penetrate the atmosphere and warm the earth’s surface. This energy is re-radiated as infrared radiation, which, because of its longer wavelength, is absorbed by such substances as carbon dioxide, instead of passing through. The overall effect is that the average temperature of the earth and its atmosphere is increasing - the so-called Global Warming or ultimately the Global Ending Syndrome.
Forest Land - Forest covered with trees and undergrowth. Over 20% of the Earth's land-surface is forest, providing valuable oxygen, timber, and habitats for wildlife. Northern coniferous forests consist largely of pine, spruce, and firs.  The World is Starving - 50,000 people die every day due to the lack of food, drugs and medical care. Sahara desert Facts  -  The Sahara Desert is a great desert area, North Africa, the West portion of the broad belt of parched land that extends from the Atlantic Ocean eastward past the Red Sea to Iraq. The entire desert, the largest in the world, is about 1600 km wide and about 5000 km long from East to West. The Taliban - Persian Tālebān  - Students.  Also spelled Taleban. An  ultra conservative political and religious faction that emerged in Afghanistan in the mid 1990s following the withdrawal of Soviet troops, the collapse of Afghanistan's communist regime, and the subsequent breakdown in civil order. The faction took its name from its membership, which consisted largely of students trained in Madrasah's Islamic religious schools, that were established for Afghan refugees in the1980s in northern Pakistan Lucifer  - In Christian tradition, the leader of the angels expelled from heaven for rebelling against God. Known thereafter as Satan (Hebrew: adversary) or the Devil, he presides over the souls condemned to torment in Hell. He is identified with the serpent that tempted Eve (Genesis 3.1–6) and the great red dragon cast out of heaven by Michael (Revelation 12.3–9). The exact nature of Lucifer’s sin was much debated; the commonest view is that his sin was pride. TERMITES - any of the cellulose-eating social insects that constitute the order Isoptera. Cellulose in this case refers to wood. Termites have for millions of years been eating the majority of fallen trees, dead trees and rotting trees, from all around the world. It is said that the world would be totally covered in a ten meter pile of rotting timber, if it was not for the Termite.

He was born Samuel Leroy Jackson on the 21st of December, 1948, in Washington DC. His father left when he was very young, moving to Kansas City, Missouri, leaving Samuel to be raised by his mother, Elizabeth, and his grandparents, in Chattanooga, Tennessee. Granddad was a janitor, while Elizabeth worked in a factory (later she'd be a supply buyer for a state mental institution). Health Problems??   We have many pages on a variety of ailments.

CULVER CITY, CA May 19, 2005 – Topher Grace has joined the cast of Spider-Man® 3, it was announced by director Sam Raimi and producers Laura Ziskin and Marvel Studio's Avi Arad.   Grace will join Tobey Maguire, Kirsten Dunst, James Franco, and Thomas Haden Church in the blockbuster franchise.  Spider-Man 3 is scheduled for release on May 4, 2007, and will reunite returning cast members with director Sam Raimi and producers Ziskin and Arad, the successful filmmaking team responsible for the first two films. Fleas have been around for millions of years - a fossilized flea found in Australia is said to be 200 million years old. It does not differ significantly from today's fleas. Different species can be found from the Arctic Circle to the Arabian deserts - even penguins have fleas which counteract the cold by ensuring that their growth into adulthood coincides with the time when penguins are sitting firmly on their eggs, thereby keeping both fleas and their young in a warm environment! SMELLY FEET - Most of the body sweats to keep us cool, and help remove some waste products from the body. Every square cm of the sole of the foot and the palms of your hands have about over 500 sweat pores, totalling 250,000 little holes, that is more than other part of the body, even more that under the arm-pits. Hay fever An allergy to pollen, which leads to sneezing, a streaming nose, and inflamed eyes. Treatment involves taking antihistamines or, in severe cases, steroids.  -  ALLERGIES -  hypersensitive reaction by the body to foreign substances - antigens,  that in similar amounts and circumstances are harmless within the bodies of other people. World Trade Center - A complex of several buildings around a central plaza in New York City that in 2001 was the site of the deadliest terrorist attack in American history. The complex—located at the southwestern tip of Manhattan, near the shore of the Hudson River and a few blocks northwest of Wall Street—was built by the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey as a central facility for businesses and government agencies involved in international trade. Until the 2001 attack, it was notable for its huge twin towers, each of which had 110 stories. The roof of One World Trade Center reached to 1,368 feet (417 meters), and Two World Trade Center was 1,362 feet (415 meters) tall. Designed by Minoru Yamasaki and officially opened in 1972, the towers were the world's tallest buildings until surpassed in 1973 by the Sears Tower in Chicago. (See Researcher's Note: Heights of Buildings.) Each of the twin towers had 97 passenger elevators, 21,800 windows, and roughly an acre (0.4 hectare) of rentable space per floor. An observation deck was situated on the 107th floor of the south tower (Two World Trade Center), and a television-broadcasting mast 360 feet (110 meters) high was attached to the north tower (One World Trade Center). Mosquito  -  A small flying biting insect that could be described as a type of Fly. It lives worldwide, especially in the tropics. It has long legs and a slender abdomen, Culex Forma. In most species the males feed on plant juices or nectar. The females puncture the skin with a long proboscis, to suck the blood of mammals, quite often transmitting serious diseases, including Malaria, Dengue Fever, Encephalitis and Yellow Fever. The mosquito is not strictly a parasite.
Asthma is not a new phenomenon, as its recent insurgence would suggest.  - Asthma-like symptoms were first recorded around 3500 years ago in an Egyptian manuscript called the Ebers Papyrus. And a word with similar roots as Asthma was also seen in Homer's Iliad. The word comes from the Greek and means Labored Breathing. The word Asthma was first used to describe an illness 500 years later by the famous Greek physician, and father of Medicine,  Hippocrates. The Romans also recorded this condition and used various remedies to try and cure it. ALL ABOUT BREEDING YOUR DOG - How To Breed Your Dog Huntington's Disease is due to a dominant and faulty genetic disorder on chromosome 4.  The consequence of the fault with this gene starts around or just before middle age,  and leads to a gradual physical, mental and emotional change in its victim. Huntington's Disease was named after the American, Dr. George Huntington, as in 1872 he was the first person to document an accurate description of the symptoms and the route of the disease.  -  The loss of these cells causes intense symptoms and eventually death. As the condition advances, it becomes more difficult for the patient to walk and speak. Memory and intellectual functions continue to decline, until the end. By far of the majority of patients are placed in hospices for special care. THE LOUSE - also called the Body Louse -Pediculus Humanus, one of the most common sucking lice, found wherever human beings live. There are two sub-species of the common human louse: Pediculus Humanus Capitis, the Head Louse, and P. Humanus Humanus, the body louse, or cootie. The body louse is an important carrier of epidemic typhus; other louse-borne human diseases are trench fever and relapsing fever CLONE - also spelled clon population of genetically identical cells or organisms that are derived originally from a single original cell or organism by asexual methods. Cloning is fundamental to most living things, since the body cells of plants and animals are clones ultimately derived from the mitosis of a single fertilized egg. More narrowly, a clone can be defined as an individual organism that was grown from a single body cell of its parent and that is genetically identical to it.

Meningitis is an infection of the clear plasma-like fluid of a person's spinal cord and the same fluid that surrounds the brain. Meningitis is sometimes referred to as Spinal Meningitis. Meningitis is usually caused by a viral or bacterial infection; itis mean inflammation, so the infection causes an inflammation of these areas. The June Bug - Cotinus Nitida  - Linnaeus - Really a Flying Beetle -  " I'm coming to get you!! "     -      Cotinus Nitida - The June Bug, also called May Beetle, or July Bug - Any insect of the genus Phyllophaga, belonging to the widely distributed, plant-feeding subfamily Melolonthinae - family Scarabaeidae, order Coleoptera. These red-brown / green or even orange beetles commonly appear in the Northern Hemisphere during warm spring evenings and are attracted to lights. The heavy-bodied June beetles vary from 12 to 25 mm - 0.5 to 1 inch,  and have shiny wing covers (elytra). They feed on foliage and flowers at night, sometimes causing considerable damage. June beetle larvae, called white grubs, are about 25 mm long and live in the soil. They can destroy crops, like, corn [maize], small grains, potatoes, strawberries, and they can kill lawns and pastures by severing the grasses from the roots. Health Problems??   We have many pages on a variety of ailments. ALLERGIES - ANTHRAX - ATHLETES FOOT - MALARIA - MENINGITIS - MRSA - SMELLY FEET - BEDBUG - Any member of the approximately 75 species of nocturnal insects of the family Cimicidae - order Heteroptera,  that feed by sucking the blood of humans and other warm-blooded animals. The reddish brown, or mahogany adult is broad and flat. It is only 4 to 5 mm, less than 0.2 inch long. The greatly withered, scaly vestigial wings are inconspicuous and non-functioning. You know they are about, when you see you have mysterious bite marks - small red dots. You can also see small  telltale black marks, on sheets and mattresses.  Bedbugs also have a  distinctive oily odor, that results from a secretion of scent from their stink glands. COCKROACHES - Dictyoptera  - An order of insects comprising the cockroaches - suborder Blattaria) and the mantids - suborder Mantodea, occurring mainly in tropical regions. Cockroaches are oval and flattened in shape; some have a single well-developed pair of wings, folded back over the abdomen at rest, while in others the wings may be reduced or absent. They are usually found in forest litter, feeding on dead organic matter, but some species, e.g. the American cockroach - Periplaneta Americana, are major household pests, scavenging on starchy foods, fruits, etc. In most species the females produce capsules - the (oothecae containing 16 - 40 eggs. These are either deposited or carried by the female during incubation.
The human papilloma virus - HPV,  causes several different types of warts, which are the most common type of skin infection. In some cases, the HPV virus dies within 1 or 2 years, and warts simply disappear.    Verrucas, also called Warts,  well-defined small growth of varying shape on the skin surface, caused by a virus. The wart is composed of an abnormal proliferation of cells of the epidermis; the overproduction of these cells is caused by the viral infection. The most common type of wart is a round, raised lesion having a dry and rough surface; flat or threadlike lesions are also seen. Warts are usually painless, except for those in pressure areas, such as the plantar warts, or Verrucas, that occur on the sole of the foot. They may occur as isolated lesions or grow profusely, especially in moist regions of the body surface. Clostridium Difficile, is now recognized as the chief cause of HAI - Diarrhea in the US and Europe, and not only in hospitals but also in nursing homes and other facilities for long term care. Initial recognition of this disease began in the 1970s, with reports of a serious, sometimes lethal colitis, characterized by the formation of pseudo-membranous plaques. The cause was identified as Clostridium Difficile in 1978.  Allergy    -   An abnormal reaction by the body to certain substances, including pollen, dust, certain foods and drugs, fur, moulds, etc. Normally all foreign substances (antigens) entering the body are destroyed by antibodies. Allergic people, however, become hypersensitive to certain antigens (called allergens), so that whenever they are encountered in future they stimulate not only the normal antibody reaction but also the abnormal symptoms of the allergy, such as sneezing and skin rashes. Allergic conditions include hay fever, some forms of asthma and dermatitis, and urticaria. Treatment includes the use of antihistamines and corticosteroids and desensitization. Athlete's Foot is a skin condition caused by a fungus, that typically occurs between the toes. This picture is the classic condition, and very common. It is also at a stage where it is being restrained, not cured, only by being kept reasonably clean.  WE HAVE A CURE. PILES - Hemroids and their symptoms are one of the most common afflictions in the Western world. In fact, hemroids can occur at any age and can affect both women and men. Because the presence of hemorrhoidal tissue is normal - it acts as a compressible lining which allows the anus to close completely. Unfortunately, hemroids tend to get worse over time, and disease should be treated as soon as it occurs. TICK  -  A widely distributed parasitic arachnid  -  related to Spiders and Scorpions, that sucks the blood of mammals, reptiles and  birds, and may transmit such diseases as Typhus, Lymes Disease and Relapsing Fever. Its round body can be as small as a millimeter, or up to 30 mm long, with eight bristly legs. After feeding, the adults drop off the host and lay eggs on the ground. The larvae attach themselves to a suitable victim, feed, then drop off and molt into nymphs, which repeat the procedure. They have been compared to being similar to the Mite. An insect is a six legged creature, but all of this sized organisms once came from the same ancestor.
MALARIA - A serious, acute and chronic relapsing infection in humans, characterized by periodic attacks of chills and fever, anemia, enlargement of the spleen - splenomegaly, and often fatal complications. Malaria also is found in apes, monkeys, rats, birds, and reptiles. It is caused by various species of protozoa, a one-celled organism - called Sporozoans, that belong to the genus Plasmodium. These parasites are transmitted to humans by the bite of various species of mosquitoes belonging to the genus Anopheles . Worms, some say, have been around in one form or shape for about 600 million years. We actually share some DNA with all worms. There are perhaps up to 35,000 different types of these legless invertebrates, that we call worms. Some scurry about on the surface of the land, some live just beneath, whilst others bury themselves deep into the Earth's surface. Many live in the sea, and some have been found deep down on the bottom. Some are so small you cannot see them with the naked-eye, others are so big, they could be snakes. An Earthworm can live for ten years, living and eating in our gardens. They have no eyes, or ears and never sleep. Pound for pound, as they are made of mostly muscle they can be 1,000 times stronger than the strongest man, so next time you call a person a worm, think. Elvis was born Jan. 8, 1935, in Tupelo, Miss., U.S. He died Aug. 16, 1977, in Memphis, Tenn. His name in full was Elvis Aaron Presley or more correctly, Elvis Aron Presley, the popular singer widely known as the King of Rock and Roll. He was one of rock music's most dominant performers from the mid-1950s until the present day and forever. Acne can affect people from ages 9 through to middle-age. Acne can show up as any of the following; congested pores, whiteheads, blackheads, pimples, pustules, or cysts - deep pimples, spots. These blemishes occur wherever there are many oil or sebaceous glands, mainly on the face, chest, and back. Acne is commonly referred to in slang as zits.
