mosquito bats

The mosquito bite is hurting Chennai residents in more ways than one: the city is reportedly the biggest market in the country for mosquito repellents, closely followed by Bangalore.

Residents spend anything between Rs. 15 crore and Rs. 20 crore every month, buying mosquito repellents such as coils, mats, sprays and ointments, according to an industry estimate.

And, if you add Rs. 2 crore spent by the Chennai Corporation on procuring insecticides, larvicides and fogging equipment, the task of tackling the mosquito menace costs around Rs. 180 crore every year. So the people of Chennai have moved on with a cheaper and healthy way to prevent mosquito, the bat (not the animal)which are sold in market which has electical mesh in it, effectively kill the insect, when the insect touches the grid which has electicity, which gets current from a 6 volt battery in the Bat!

Even by a conservative estimate, the expenditure is much more than what is spent on conventional ways of controlling mosquito breeding, including desilting of waterways and prevention of breeding of mosquitoes in fresh water.

Chennai Corporation officials say they have been able to drastically bring down incidence of malaria and filaria over the past decade.

The civic agency often faces flak for not carrying out fogging operations. But a senior official says a more holistic approach is required.

The Chikungunya outbreak is reported to be on the decline. But officials worry that it could become an annual occurrence.

I decided to go bird watch with my uncle last Sunday in yellow wood park, its such a beautiful place, birds, trees, bucks and lots and lots of creatures in the wilderness, but the problem is we can’t get a clear view of all the animals and birds that easily, because the last time when we went there my uncle nearly scared all the animals away good and we get to see not much animals close enough. So this time i came up with a brilliant idea of getting a new binoculars, before hitting the woods, and he told that its a great idea, where do we get binoculars from a reliable place. We don’t know a good place around to buy one. So i tried searching for it online and i did found a good site indeed, i was really astonished to all the types of binoculars this site offers, from bird watching binoculars to waterproof binoculars, you name it you have it. I ended up buying an hunting binocular, anyways we are not going to hunt down animals, but just to take a clear look at them. And the binoculars were really awesome, these are the best binoculars i have ever had. These binoculars made this trip an wonderful experience and i would even recommend this binoculars to take a look at planets from here, just kidding guys But this is pretty cool.

Autism is a brain disorder that begins in early childhood, usually within the first three years of life and persists throughout adulthood. It affects crucial areas of development and exhibits following symptoms like:

·learning difficulties i.e. he lacks in ability to learn inductively from surrounding events,
·communication or speech problems,
·difficulty relating to people, marked by a lack of awareness of the feelings of others, indifferent to parents
·lack of social interaction,
·short attention span,
·not exhibiting creative or imaginative play,
·performing actions that are often repetitive and unchanging like twirling objects or rocking,
·reacting extremely to changes in the immediate environment.

Autistic children appear to lack the ability to see things from another person’s perspective, a behavior cited as exclusive to human beings above the age of five and possibly in some primates.

Autistic traits continue into adulthood, but vary in severity. Some adults with autism do well, earning college degrees and living independently. Others never develop the skills of daily living, and may be incorrectly diagnosed with a variety of psychiatric illnesses.

Autism is a pervasive developmental disorder with an unknown origin. It is a bioneurological disorder and not a mental illness, which affects the functioning of the brain. Some theories suggest that it may be caused by genetics, viral and/or chemical exposure during pregnancy. Diagnosis is based on a list of psychiatric criteria as well as a series of standardized clinical tests are also used.

Surprisingly some autistic individuals may be outstandingly good at some kinds of mental manipulations for example, arithmetical calculations, music, drawing etc.

With intense therapy, practice and schooling, some children diagnosed with autism can improve their social and other skills to the point where they can fully participate in mainstream education and social events, but there are no indications that a cure from autism is possible with current technology or advances in medicine.

Asperger’s syndrome and developmental delay syndromes are two of the related categories of Autism. These syndromes exist because of brain circuitry problems.

A key indicator to physicians making a proper assessment for autism would include looking for symptoms found in ‘sensory integration dysfunction’, where children will exhibit problems such as oversensitivity or under-reactivity to touch, movement, sights, or sounds; physical clumsiness; poor body awareness; a tendency to be easily distracted; impulsive physical or verbal behavior; an activity level that is unusually high or low; not unwinding or calming oneself; difficulty learning new movements; difficulty in making transitions from one situation to another. Autistic people may experience difficulty in hearing certain people’s voice while others’ are louder than usual.

When it comes to choosing a place to live, male chimpanzees in the wild don’t stray far from home, according to a new report. The researchers found that adult male chimps out on their own tend to follow in their mother’s footsteps, spending their days in the same familiar haunts where they grew up. Male chimpanzees are generally very social, but how they use space when they are alone might be critical to their survival, the researchers said.
