I know that criminal poisoning is a subterfuge topic, I am sure that toxicologists, forensic scientists, molecular toxicologists are only theoretic experts, but in the practice TWIN TOWERS!; ìt´s very difficult to study this type of crime.
What metodology?, Financiation Justify?

A spider bite...please read...........


And you thought the brown recluse was bad!!!

Three women in North Florida , turned up at hospitals over a 5-day period, all with the same symptoms. Fever, chills, and vomiting, followed by muscular collapse, paralysis, and finally, death. There were no outward signs of trauma.
Autopsy results showed toxicity in the blood. These women did not know each other, and seemed to have
nothing in common. It was discovered, however, that they had all visited the same Restaurant (Olive Garden) within days of their deaths. The health department descended on the restaurant, shutting it down. The food, water, and
air conditioning were all inspected and tested, to no avail.

The big break came when a waitress at the restaurant was rushed to the hospital with similar symptoms. She told doctors that she had been on vacation, and had only went to the restaurant to pick up her check. She did not eat or drink while she was there, but had used the restroom. That is when one toxicologist, remembering an article he had read, drove out to the restaurant, went into the restroom, and lifted the toilet seat.

Under the seat, out of normal view, was a small spider. The spider was captured and brought back to the lab, where it was determined to be the Two-Striped Telamonia (Telamonia dimidiata), so named because
of its reddened flesh color. This spider's venom is extremely toxic, but can take several days to take effect. They live in cold, dark, damp climates, and toilet rims provide just the right atmosphere.

Several days later a lawyer from Jacksonville showed up at a hospital emergency room. Before his death, he told the doctor, that he had been away on business, had takena flight from Indonesia, changing planes in Singapore , before returning home. He did not visit (Olive Garden), while there. He did, as did all of the other victims, have what was determined to be a puncture wound, on his right buttock.

Investigators discovered that the flight he was on had originated in India The Civilian Aeronautics Board (CAB) ordered an immediate inspection of the toilets of all flights from India , and discovered the Two-Striped Telamonia
(Telamonia dimidiata) spider's nests on 4 different planes!

It is now believed that these spiders can be anywhere in the country.

So please, before you use a public toilet, lift the seat to check for spiders.
It can save your life!
And please pass this on to everyone you care about.

I'm going in for a CT scan to rule out a hernia, which will use a contrast iodine via I.V. My mother had a very bad anaphylactic reaction in the past to contrast IV iodine--is this genetic? I'm afraid of having a similar reaction. Also, do they "pre-treat" people with this allergy before the CT scan, and how do they treat an allergic reaction if there is one?

I have been thinking about this problem for a long time. It is more than often said that eye sight is perhaps the most important sense of human beings. However, it is a very high percentage of people who need glasses and would have a hard time without them.

Why is myopia so extremely common? One could think that such important sense as eye sight would have evolved perfectly but it hasn't.

I also heard of a documentary that suggested that "modern eyes" don't get enough practice in today's environment. Thus, people suffering of myopia should, according to the documentary, wear in fact convex ("plus") lenses to train the eye.

I would love to know why so many people need eye glasses. And please feel free to post any relevant links on the topic. Thanks so much in advance!
