Head Louse
The head louse (''Pediculus humanus capitis'') is an obligate parasite, obligate parasitism, ectoparasite of humans. Head lice are wingless insects that spend their entire lives on the human scalp and feed exclusively on human blood. Humans are the only known host (biology), hosts of this specific parasite, while Common chimpanzee, chimpanzees and bonobos host a closely related species, ''Pediculus schaeffi''. Other species of lice infest most orders of mammals and all orders of birds. Lice differ from other hematophagic ectoparasites such as fleas in spending their entire lifecycle on a host. Head lice cannot fly, and their short, stumpy legs render them incapable of jumping, or even walking efficiently on flat surfaces. The non-disease-carrying head louse differs from the related disease-carrying body louse (''Pediculus humanus humanus'') in preferring to attach eggs to scalp hair rather than to clothing. The two subspecies are morphologically almost identical, but do not norm ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Requiem (Fauré)
Gabriel Fauré composed his Requiem in D minor, Opus number, Op. 48, between 1887 and 1890. The choral-orchestral setting of the shortened Catholic Requiem, Mass for the Dead in Latin is the best-known of his large works. Its focus is on eternal rest and consolation. Fauré's reasons for composing the work are unclear, but do not appear to have had anything to do with the death of his parents in the mid-1880s. He composed the work in the late 1880s and revised it in the 1890s, finishing it in 1900. In seven movement (music), movements, the work is scored for soprano and baritone soloists, mixed choir, orchestra and organ. Different from typical Requiem settings, the full Sequence (musical form), sequence is omitted, replaced by just one of its sections . The final movement is based on a text that is not part of the Requiem (liturgy), liturgy of the funeral Mass but of the Roman Catholic funeral, burial. Fauré wrote of the work, "Everything I managed to entertain by way of reli ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |
