![]() ![]() The potential for biological control of tent caterpillars is great and probably accounts for much of the mortality in native habitats. They are at times devastated by outbreaks of bacterial or viral diseases, especially if local populations become extremely dense. Tent caterpillars are attacked by numerous natural enemies, including birds, predaceous beetles and bugs, and parasitic wasps and flies. Beers, June 1987)Ĭheck for tents or webbing of these insects, which are easy to spot in the orchard. Monitoring Tent caterpillars and tent (E. ![]() While fruit is not directly attacked, fruit on branches that have had leaves consumed will not develop normally. On larger trees they are only a serious problem if there are several colonies on the same tree. Larvae of a single tent caterpillar colony can strip the leaves from a small tree if allowed to develop and are more of a threat in nurseries or newly planted orchards. Moths emerge in June and July, then mate and lay eggs, which hatch the following spring. Larvae mature in 4 to 6 weeks and by mid-May through June can be seen wandering in search of places to pupate. This web gradually expands as the larvae grow and the feeding area required to sustain the colony increases. The young larvae move to a crotch and spin a dense web. Tent caterpillars overwinter as eggs, which hatch in spring when new foliage starts to appear. Tent caterpillars have one generation each year. On the forest tent caterpillar the bands are brown. The western tent caterpillar moth is a dull, reddish brown with a pair of parallel oblique whitish bands crossing the front wing. It is enclosed in a silken cocoon of loosely woven white silk, which is commonly dusted over with a fine yellowish powder. The pupa is brown and about 3/4 inch (19 mm) long. The fully grown forest tent caterpillar larva can be distinguished from the western tent caterpillar by the row of wedge- or club-shaped cream spots down its back in place of the stripe. The body is pale blue-gray on the sides with a distinctive light stripe down the middle of its back and bluish spots to either side of the mid-line. The fully grown western tent caterpillar larva is about 2 inches (50 mm) long and covered with fine, soft yellowish brown hairs. The masses are covered with a brownish gray material that protects them from the weather. Eggs are laid in masses of as many as 400. The egg is elongated and about 1/25 inch (1 mm) long. The forest tent caterpillar prefers maple but will also feed on the foliage of most types of fruit trees. The western tent caterpillar attacks a wide range of hosts including apple, peach, plum, cherry, pear, wild rose, poplar and willow. When not feeding, the larvae gather in masses on branches or the tree trunk. However, the webbing may completely cover limbs and foliage. While the larvae do trail webbing wherever they go, this webbing does not function as a true tent. They are considered a minor pest of fruit trees.\The forest tent caterpillar is found throughout North America. They are not common in most commercial orchards, but tents are conspicuous in abandoned trees or native habitats. There are several species of tent caterpillars in the western United States, but all have similar life histories, habits and appearances. The species found in the East is the common eastern tent caterpillar, Malacosoma americana (Fabricius). The western tent caterpillar is found throughout the western United States and Canada.

The jagged guitar worms its way well into Grohl's smoky vocals and the chorus only confirms the Neil Young (maybe it's more CSN&Y or Buffalo Springfield now that I think about it) intonations. With "Summer's End," the band goes for a ragged classic rock motif that features shades of Neil Young/Crazy Horse grunge. The chorus is damn infectious, though, and the track flip-flops between being pop rock genericism and barroom slickness. From this introspective moment the group shifts into overdrive on "Cheer Up, Boys (Your Make Up Is Running)." The crunching guitars at the outset belie a more MOR pop vocalistic vibe that kicks in. "Stranger Things Have Happened" is the type of track that lays everything bare and expertly showcases Grohl's captivating persona, a richly nuanced acoustic ditty that is both raw and emotional in all the right ways rustically beautiful to the core, from the picked notes to the rough-around-the-edges/cigarette tainted vocals, this is Foo at their finest (even though it's basically Grohl on the solo with a little help from Shiflett). In this way the latter part of the song is easily the most captivating. The heart of this track is when he dips into the repetition of "come alive, come alive, come alive." and the band kicks up the intensity a notch or two. That said, it serves to showcase the breadth of Grohl's singing voice, how he is able to contain the growling circumstance and unleash something just this side of serene. It's beautiful, but also slick and somewhat saccharine. Grohl goes for drifting melancholy on "Come Alive," a track that revolves around acoustic guitar and soft spoken vocals. Ditto for "Long Road to Ruin," which dispenses with the aggression in favor of MOR-styled Alternarock mainstream ability that places it firmly in the same vein as say a more edgy Bon Jovi ditty. Other than that there's not much to separate it from the standard Foo fare we've heard before. Side-winding guitars lead you into "Erase/Replace," which makes no bones about its aggressive stance, relying on Taylor Hawkin's impulsively cascading drums to lend support to Grohl's growling timbre. After the rush of the opening track Grohl and company slow things down for the introspective "Let It Die," which masks some aggressive malcontent at the core. After the excess of the group's last effort, 2005's double disc In Your Honor, Echoes, Silence, Patience & Grace comes as something of a streamlined reprieve, clocking in with what seems a paltry 13 tracks total. ![]() ![]() In Finder - Copy your file to an external hard drive, online storage (Box or Google Drive), or the server for safe keeping!

"It is easy to see how this can account for the relationship between the manic side of bipolar disorder and comic performance," the authors say. Manic thinking, a feature of bipolar disorder, emerged as one of their key traits. The researchers believe that the comedians' mindsets as revealed by their high ratings on all four counts helps to explain why they can entertain audiences. The actors emerged as not having introverted personalities, but the comedians did. ![]() While the actors scored higher than the general group on three of the four measures, the comedians came out "significantly higher on all four types of psychotic personality traits" compared to them, the researchers reported. It also covered introvertive anhedonia – a reduced ability to feel social and physical pleasure as well as an avoidance of intimacy – and impulsive non-conformity, the tendency towards impulsive, antisocial behaviour, which is often linked to a lack of mood-related self-control.Ĭomedians' scores were then compared to those of 364 actors and 831 people in non-creative occupations. They included unusual experiences, which measures magical thinking, belief in telepathy and other paranormal events and a tendency to experience perceptual aberrations, as well as cognitive disorganisation, which captures distractability and difficulty in focusing one's thoughts. In the study, the 404 male and 119 female comedians filled in a short online version of the Oxford-Liverpool Inventory of Feelings and Experiences (O-LIFE), which asks about schizophrenic and bipolar features. Equally, 'manic thinking', which is common in people with bipolar disorder, may help people combine ideas to form new, original and humorous connections," Claridge added. "Although schizophrenic psychosis itself can be detrimental to humour, in its lesser form it can increase people's ability to associate odd or unusual things or to think 'outside the box'. He is also one of the three co-authors of the findings, which are published in the British Journal of Psychiatry. "The creative elements needed to produce humour are strikingly similar to those characterising the cognitive style of people with psychosis – both schizophrenia and bipolar disorder," said Professor Gordon Claridge from Oxford University's department of experimental psychology. The results are based on a study of how 523 comedians from the UK, USA and Australia described their own personalities and beliefs when they filled in a questionnaire measuring psychotic traits in people who are not troubled by mental illness. ![]() ![]() ![]() They concluded that “stimulating the vestibular system during balance training induces changes of the hippocampus and parietal cortex possibly via direct pathways between the vestibular system and the brain regions [associated with memory and spatial cognition.” Suggested workouts: Monkey, Crushing it! and Ryu. After 12 weeks researchers found that from a strength and cardiovascular point of view both groups were at the same level but the control group had fallen behind in memory skills and spatial cognition. The study was designed to check for improved fitness and cognitive functions compared to a control group that carried out fitness exercises of similar level and intensity which did not include a challenge to balance. A 2017 carried our by researchers from several German Universities looked at the impact of balance exercises on healthy adults over a period of 12 weeks. Improved balance, memory and spatial awareness. ![]() Dr Moreau’s research found compelling evidence linking complex physical training moves and an increase in cognitive abilities with “designed sport, an activity specifically tailored to tax working memory and spatial ability by incorporating complex motor coordination in three-dimensional space, outperformed interventions solely focused on either physical or cognitive demands on measures of working memory capacity, spatial ability, and biomarkers of general health, such as resting heart rate and blood pressure.” Suggested workouts: Onna Bugeisha, Skybreaker and Combat Pro. The theory of embodied cognition says that our ability to think, analyze and decide is the result of the totality of our body and its state instead of something that happens in isolation in our head. In a 2015 study of exercise and cognitive enhancement in learning environments, Dr David Moreau, a research psychologist from the Centre for Brain Research and School of Psychology at the University of Auckland, found looked at both empirical and experimental research studies examining embodied cognition.
