Asteroid 2002 NT7

We have, for years now being ranting on about the global environment and how we believe through any myriad of reasons that the sentient inhabitants of this planet, known as Humanity, may not live past the year 2100, because we will not be able to evolve quick enough to adapt to the varying climatic and atmospheric conditions. Well we are sorry, we were wrong. It is going to happen on Friday February 1st  2019, or at least that is the possibility, as a huge lump of rock that maybe over 10 billion years old, may hit Earth. The asteroid, and you will need more than Preparation H, may strike and it is thought that it may land in the middle of the Sahara Desert.  In any event it is quite exiting knowing that a huge chunk of life as we know it may be destroyed, or not. 

What is an Asteroid?

An asteroid is just like any of the bodies revolving around the Sun; mini-planets if you like. They are probably made up of the same stuff of most other bodies in our solar system,  just that they are much smaller. Some have diameters of up to 500 miles and then some only 100 meters; the largest asteroids are called planetoids. 

Somebody asked how are rogue asteroids sited. How would I know?  But if I did, what might be a good idea in order to find out, is to take a decent and huge telescope, probably a old one, as a new instrument would cost too much, a 36 inch one would do.

Asteroid Moments Before Strike?

A stellar telescope is able to move around [360 degrees] and up and down, so that it can pin point various objects in the sky. It can also move mechanically with time or in sync with the orbit of the Earth. The idea then is to set the telescope in motion with the Earth's rotation and take three or more pictures of a small section of space, out of thousands of small sections of space.  Whilst moving in tandem with the spinning of the Earth on its axis, any picture will show all the 'stars' plus any that are not fixed. 

If you have not got a computer that can evaluate this information, what you do is ' blink '. Blinking is taking two shots of the same piece of sky using the telescope that is moving in sync with the Earth's rotation and arrange it so that your computer will view both pictures aligned, one at a time, every half second or so. Any foreign body that is not moving in sync with the normal heavenly motions will show up quite clearly as a moving spot of light.

If you have a computer program though, it can take evidence of these spots of light, and show up those, if any,  that have not stayed 'still'. 

Relative to us, stars actually stay still, it is the Earth that moves, along with other planets, but the movements of these are well known, so the computer can eliminate these. The computer then informs the user that there may be some kind of anomaly, such as an asteroid out there in this particular section.

Asteroids come mainly from the Asteroid Belt which is between the 'near' planets and the 'far' planets. The near planets are Mercury; Venus; Earth; and Mars. Then we have the Asteroids and then the 'far' planets being Jupiter,  then Saturn, Uranus etc. Because Jupiter is so big, its diameter is nearly 143,000 kilometers, its gravity force is very large and on occasions it pulls an asteroid out from its 'normal orbit'. The orbit of this asteroid then changes from what was nearly circular, to that of an ellipse. The ellipse is also usually quite acute, having a long major axis and a small minor axis. To be fair Jupiter does suck in quite a few of these lumps of rock, that crash onto its own surface, which is good for the rest of us. 

Recently a huge group of asteroids were seen from here impacting into Jupiter. The explosive fall out from these hits were as big as the Earth itself and had these asteroids hit us, we would not be on the Internet anymore.

When the computer looks at the pictures of the section and finds a spot of light that is moving in a path not previously recognized, it brings it to the users attention. The human observer will then take greater note of this particular object and area. But as they say that there are less than six humans looking into the sky for these potential hazards at any one time, it is no real shock to realize that some are not seen at all, until it is too late. But the word soon gets round so to speak, and other observatories take a better look at that particular piece of sky.

Various bits of information are discovered and evaluated by the computer, astronomers can do it but it takes much much longer. It is with this information most everything can be calculated about this body and whether the moving mass will hit us, or any other planet for that matter. The information needed comes in seven parts. 

1]     The size of the major axis of the ellipse of the asteroid's orbit.

2]     The size of the minor axis of the ellipse of the asteroids orbit.

3]     The vertical tilt of the axis in comparison with the path of the Earth's orbit.

4]     The horizontal tilt of the axis in comparison with the path of the Earth's orbit.

5]     The orientation of the orbit in comparison with the Sun's position.

6     How far around the path of the orbit it is at any particular time.

7]    And finally, the time.

A computer can take all this information and with some fine tuning can quite accurately predict when and where a asteroid will be at any given time. The only problem is that factors can change. 

Let us consider that 2002 NT7 was once upon a time quite happily orbiting the Sun along with all its other buddies in the Asteroid Belt,  when it was dragged quite unceremoniously into a different stellar pathway by Jupiter, or by colliding with another asteroid. Asteroid 2002 NT7 may have been unsettled a thousand or a million years ago, in fact it may have skimmed Earth in it's distance past already, in fact Earth may have changed it's path so that it may or may not lead to it hitting us in the very near future. Eventually though if Earth's orbit crosses any orbit or path of another space body, it clearly is only a matter of time before they will meet. Notwithstanding those other factors though, like Bruce Willis flying up there and pushing it away.

If 2002 NT7 misses during 2019, it will have another chance during the years 2035 and 2051. However,  astronomers are keen to emphasize that the chance of a collision is extremely unlikely.

Asteroids (minor planets; planetoids) A number of small bodies that revolve around the sun between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter (in the asteroid belt). The size of the bodies varies from the largest, Ceres (with a diameter of about 1000km), to objects less than 1km in diameter. It is estimated that there are about 10 bodies with diameters in excess of 300km and some 200 bodies with diameters over 100km. Asteroids at  guildsoftware.com

The Moon is a satellite of the Earth but due to its size and composition, the Moon is sometimes classified as a terrestrial "planet" along with the other  inner near planets

The Moon, of course, has been known since prehistoric times. It is the second brightest object in the sky after the Sun. As the Moon orbits around the Earth once per lunar month, the angle between the Earth, the Moon and the Sun changes; we see this as the cycle of the Moon's phases. The time between successive new moons is 29.5 days (709 hours), slightly different from the Moon's orbital period (measured against the stars) since the Earth moves a significant distance in its orbit around the Sun in that time.

The Moon orbits 384,400 km from Earth, and its diameter is 3476 km.

It has recently been discovered that the Earth has FIVE other natural satellites going around it. Pieces of rock about 10-15 km across is orbiting Earth just like the Moon. It is presumed that they are possibly asteroids that have approached the Earth at such an angle that it has gone into orbit instead of crashing into our planet.

Meteor   -  A streak of light seen in the night sky when a meteoroid, an interplanetary rock or dust particle,  enters and burns up in the Earth’s atmosphere. A decaying comet gradually produces a meteor stream of meteoroids around its orbit. When the Earth passes through a meteor stream, an often spectacular meteor shower is observed. A meteorite is a large piece of interplanetary debris, iron or stone; mass usually over 100 kg,  that falls to the earth’s surface.

DIEMOS, a satellite of Mars that probably was once an asteroid.

Sometimes an asteroid can have it's own satellite circling it. These are known as binary asteroids. Probably there are even satellites circling the satellites.

Telescope An optical instrument that produces a magnified image of distant objects.

The refracting telescope, invented (1608) by Lippershey in Holland and developed (1609) by *Galileo as an astronomical instrument has a converging long-focus objective lens. The resulting image is magnified by the short-focus eyepiece to produce the final image. An example is the Keplerian telescope. Refractors are also used as terrestrial telescopes, usually containing an additional lens or prism to form an upright image. The first reflecting telescope, produced by *Newton (1668), uses a concave, usually paraboloid, mirror of long focal length to collect the light. This primary mirror reflects the light into a secondary optical system, which in turn reflects it into a short-focus eyepiece. The eyepiece lenses produce an image that can be viewed, photographed, or studied using electronic equipment. Depending on the secondary optics, reflectors are called Gregorian, Newtonian, Cassegrain, or coudé telescopes. 

The Magellan II telescope after the secondary end ring assembly was installed on the telescope. This concludes the main structural assembly of the telescope with the exception of the installation of the primary mirror and cell counterweight
Almost all of the asteroids in our solar system are orbiting in a broad band of about 30m km wide, between Jupiter and Mars. The asteroids are orbiting the Sun, each  traveling around it fast enough for the orbits not to degrade. If something slows an asteroid, it may "fall" into the Sun,  or into Mars or Jupiter. As both Jupiter and Mars move past the asteroids in their orbits, any maybe pulled slightly towards these massive bodies out of their orbit. In fact, Phobos and Diemos (ABOVE),  the two tiny moons of Mars, may be acquired asteroids. Earth-2100
Jupiter. The largest planet in the solar system and the fifth in order from the sun (778 x 106 km distant). Its equatorial diameter is 142,984 km and its sidereal period is 11.86 Earth years, or Eys. Viewed through an optical telescope it appears as an elliptical disc crossed by a number of bands. With a radio telescope thermal radiation can be detected from the Jovian stratosphere indicating a temperature between 100 and 130 Kelvin.    Microwave non-thermal emission can also be detected from the Jovian Van Allen belts. The planet has 16 known satellites, the largest of which, Io, has a diameter of 3242 km. A planetary ring of rocks was discovered in 1979 by the US Galileo probe. The John M. Kuehne Physics Mathematics Astronomy Library (PMA) is a branch of the UT Austin General Libraries.

This photo by J B Forbes illustrates what an asteroid crash might look like 100 miles away, moments after the strike.

An asteroid can travel at over THIRTY kilometers per second. If it weighs a million tons at a standstill, its kinetic weight at this speed is almost immeasurable. Most asteroid, whilst quite dense rock are in fact quite brittle and will smash and break. An impact will turn the asteroid and the surrounding impact site into dust like fragments that will be reflected into the air. Imagine if an asteroid was so strong that it could not be damaged, at 30 kms per second, weighing a million tons, it would probably punch a hole right through the Earth like a bullet.

MIMAS is the seventh of Saturn's known satellites, here is a great picture of it showing a huge crater from an asteroid hit.

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.

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. 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.  Anthrax is principally a disease of domesticated and wild mammals, particularly herbivorous animals, such as cattle, sheep, horses, mules, and goats. Humans become infected almost incidentally when brought into contact with diseased animals, which can include their flesh, bones, hides, hair and excrement, or anywhere the germ may be lurking.
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 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). THE TAKERS TEST -  Every minute of every day millions of people make  a hot drink for themselves. Whether it is Tea, Coffee or Hot Chocolate, invariably the process needs WATER and some ENERGY source. Put up your hand, if you did not know this, and also that the planet's WATER and ENERGY sources are dwindling NEW ICE-AGE BY 2080 - READ IT HERE ! !
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.  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. 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 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.
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 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!

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 .

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.
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. 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. MRSA - PLEASE NOTE THAT MRSA IS NOT A DISEASE. IT IS THE NAME OF A BACTERIA THAT WE NO LONGER HAVE AN ANTIBODY THAT CAN KILL IT.         IF ALLOWED INTO THE BODY OF A MAMMAL, IT CAN BRING ON MANY PROBLEMS AND CONDITIONS. THESE CONDITIONS HAVE ALTERNATE NAMES AND SOMETIMES MRSA IS NOT EVEN MENTIONED. PREVIOUS TO THE MRSA STRAIN THESE CONDITIONS WERE CLEARED UP QUITE EASILY WITH PENICILLIN ETC. BUT NOT ANYMORE. READ ON! 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.
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. 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. 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. STD's - These bacterial and viral infections are related to sex, but of course have historically been associated with oral-sex and the vagina. In most all cases though they can cause some form of bodily infection and are transmitted through some form of sex. HIV/ AIDS is also listed below. Sexually Transmitted Diseases (STDs) can often be transmitted even though both partners firmly believe they are infection free. The incubation period of a disease, is the period of time between infection and the appearance of symptoms. So during the incubation period, partners can transfer a virus or bacteria without even knowing.
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. 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. 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.  STARVING WORLD OF FAMINE - But something can be done; something that would not only help millions of Africa's starving impoverished citizens; not only help facilitate a world financial resurgence but also create a new global environment that might save humanity. It would cost nothing. 
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. TRAINING YOUR BIG DOG - How To Train Your Big Dog LISTEN TO VIRGIN RADIO UK - CLICK HERE 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.
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. 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. 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.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.
Rabies  A virus infection of the brain that can affect all warm-blooded animals and may be transmitted to man through the bite of an infected animal (usually a dog). Symptoms, which appear after a period of from ten days to two years, include painful spasms of the throat. Later, the sight of water can induce convulsions (hence the alternative name—hydrophobia, “fear of water”) and the patient eventually dies. Antirabies vaccine and antiserum given immediately after being bitten may prevent the infection from developing. The UK has strict quarantine regulations for imported domestic animals to prevent the disease from reaching Britain. 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. 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.
