What is all the more scary is that the similar prediction comes from different quarters!! 2012: NASA predicts very high intensity solar storms So... more...

Should We Pluck Out Ticks?
Ticks are a common problem in dogs. They are blood- sucking parasites sticking like warts on the skin, below the hair coat. They not only cause anemia, but also transmit a host of diseases to the animal and the owner (zoonotic diseases). Usually, the pet- owners are often seen plucking out ticks by hand, by simply pulling them. This is harmful… 1. ...  more...
