The Mosquito Menace

2011-08-23T15:59:00.003+01:00

BBC News Magazine has a useful piece which considers the anecdotal evidence of an increase in the number of mosquito bites in the uk and whether we should be concerned about spike in malaria figures:

"NHS Direct statistics show 9,061 calls in England complaining of bites and stings from early May this year to now - up nearly 15% from last summer. Not all bite complaints are due to mosquitoes - many can be attributed to bedbugs, midges and fleas.

[...]

"It is possible that Aedes albopictus could make its way to the UK," says Dr James Logan, medical entomologist at the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine.

"Because they lay their drought-resistant eggs in transportable materials, like used tyres, there is a possibility that they can be transported to a country where they are not normally found.

"Some studies suggest that they could survive the UK winter, however, to date this species has not been found in the UK and the HPA are keeping a watchful eye on it."

Save Our Libraries Day

2011-02-04T11:53:00.003Z

Libraries are in one of their most perilous conditions for decades, with closures planned throughout the country and a cutting back of services. The Isle of White, for example, will be losing nine of its eleven public libraries.

The Chartered Institute of Library and Information Professionals have organised, for tomorrow, a Save Our Libraries Day, so that people who love books and love libraries can gather together in libraries and online to as they say "bring greater attention to the cuts and closures facing many public libraries".

Suggestions how you can become involved are at their website, from tweets to letters to borrowing something you're in the mood for. If you need more convincing, here's video of Lauren Laverne in polemical mood on last night's 10 O'Clock Show.

Open Access week 2010

2010-10-15T16:51:00.002+01:00

Open Access week starts on the 18th October.

"Open Access to information - the free, immediate, online access to the results of scholarly research, and the right to use and re-use those results as you need - has the power to transform the way research and scientific inquiry are conducted. It has direct and widespread implications for academia, medicine, science, industry, and for society as a whole"

From the Open access week website.

Suckers! Poet and Parasite...

2010-03-29T15:08:00.003+01:00

It seems that parasites don't just fire up the imaginations of Scientists. Radio 4 have an interesting programme called Suckers! Poet and Parasite "Parasites are not an obvious subject matter for poetry, but in fact there are a surprising number of poems about these miniature blood-suckers. From Donne's 'The Flea', to Rimbaud's 'Lice Hunters' and D.H. Lawrence's 'Mosquito', it seems that a number of prominent poets have been fascinated by the notion of blood-sucking and by the uncomfortable relationship between man and parasite."

Why not have a listen!

World TB Day 2010

2010-03-24T11:46:00.002Z

Today is world TB day, which as the official website describes:

"is designed to build public awareness that tuberculosis today remains an epidemic in much of the world, causing the deaths of several million people each year, mostly in the third world. March 24th commemorates the day in 1882 when Dr Robert Koch astounded the scientific community by announcing that he had discovered the cause of tuberculosis, the TB bacillus. At the time of Koch's announcement in Berlin, TB was raging through Europe and the Americas, causing the death of one out of every seven people. Koch's discovery opened the way toward diagnosing and curing TB."

Recycling Portable Batteries

2010-03-10T11:13:00.002Z

LSTM has now joined a battery back scheme for recycling portable batteries.

The first container to place the batteries in has been put in the original building in the old reception corridor.

Only waste portable batteries should be placed into the Battery Cans provided

• Batteries should be kept dry

• The Battery Cans are suitable for all types of portable batteries

Examples of a portable battery include:

• The AA—AAA—C or D sized batteries used to power a torch or portable CD player or minidisk player, or the AA or AAA batteries used to power a remote control that may accompany appliances such as televisions and DVD players.

• The battery used to power a portable MP3 player.

• The battery used to power a laptop or mobile phone.

• The button cell fixed to the motherboard of a personal computer or laptop, or used to power a wristwatch.

Safety Information

Some batteries contain hazardous materials such as Cadmium (Cd), Lead (Pb), Lithium (Li) and Mercury (Hg).

Although these are hazardous to the environment and can be dangerous to health, batteries are safe if handled correctly. Please follow these simple instructions;

· Do not break open batteries.

· Do not allow batteries to get wet or place wet batteries in the container

· Do not expose batteries to excessive heat or fire. Batteries may explode in fire releasing toxic fumes

· Do not mix dry batteries (sealed) with wet batteries (unsealed, such as lead acid).

· Never use steel containers for storage. These can cause batteries to short out, always use properly labelled plastic containers provided.
Always follow the instructions provided to ensure portable batteries are safe to handle.

All safety information in relation to this scheme will be available on the intranet in due course.

Autumn poem

2009-09-22T11:32:00.003+01:00

'To Autumn'

(by John Keats)

Season of mists and mellow fruitfulness,
Close bosom-friend of the maturing sun;
Conspiring with him how to load and bless
With fruit the vines that round the thatch-eves run;
To bend with apples the moss'd cottage-trees,
And fill all fruit with ripeness to the core;
To swell the gourd, and plump the hazel shells
With a sweet kernel; to set budding more,
And still more, later flowers for the bees,
Until they think warm days will never cease,
For Summer has o'er-brimm'd their clammy cells.

Who hath not seen thee oft amid thy store?
Sometimes whoever seeks abroad may find
Thee sitting careless on a granary floor,
Thy hair soft-lifted by the winnowing wind;
Or on a half-reap'd furrow sound asleep,
Drows'd with the fume of poppies, while thy hook
Spares the next swath and all its twined flowers:
And sometimes like a gleaner thou dost keep
Steady thy laden head across a brook;
Or by a cyder-press, with patient look,
Thou watchest the last oozings hours by hours.

Where are the songs of Spring? Ay, where are they?
Think not of them, thou hast thy music too, -
While barred clouds bloom the soft-dying day,
And touch the stubble plains with rosy hue;
Then in a wailful choir the small gnats mourn
Among the river sallows, borne aloft
Or sinking as the light wind lives or dies;
And full-grown lambs loud bleat from hilly bourn;
Hedge-crickets sing; and now with treble soft
The red-breast whistles from a garden-croft;
And gathering swallows twitter in the skies.

'Season of mists and mellow fruitfulness'....and here's today's journals

Adopt A Word.

2009-08-06T09:37:00.004+01:00

Everyone has a favourite word. Yes, you do. A word which you like using all of the time, either because you like saying it, spelling it, writing it, and often because you can't stop yourself (though it's true some of these words are more colourful than others). Everyone likes giving to charity. Yes, you do. It makes you feel good, makes you feel like you're giving something back to the world.

Adopt A Word cleverly manages to combine the two. For fun or as a gift, you can 'adopt' your favourite word for £20 a year (for which you'll recieve an adoption pack), with the proceeds benefiting I CAN, a charity set up to help children with communication difficulties by providing training to teachers and supporting parents. In others to introduce kids to language so that they can have a favourite word too.

I've checked and there are plenty of words available in our field, including tropical and medicine and most of the diseases in case you want to commemorate the field you're working in. And if you want to flaunt your word, it's merchandised: mugs, keyrings and fridge magnets and t-shirts.
