Lymphosarcoma - Halloween Special

Capturing this summer, even if the 'atmosphere and' Autumn .. (Thanks to Andoni for the photo despite the foul weather)

Halloween and 'just passed and the waters are cooling. It 'a good time to fish for pike and it' s also a good time for pike.

Why '?

There 's never happened to see or get yourself a pike with rosy monstrous growths, often bloody, on the head or on the skin? When you've got?

Have you ever caught one so 'in the summer / winter?

Let's give an answer to each of these questions. And something more '.

nose and I'm going to bet, sure not to miss the most 'that much, that if you have never seen a pike with these growths is not' state in the winter.

But we do not bite off more than 'chew: What are these growths?

They are nothing but cancer, fleshy growth and well-perfused blood vessels as virtually all cancers. They are usually defined as lymphoma or lymphosarcoma in what seems to be developed primarily by a degeneration of the lymph nodes or other lymphatic system and tumors are very common in pike.

localization more 'typical textbook, and' referred to as the rear two-thirds of the body.

Actually 'and' a cancer that you can 'show virtually anywhere in the body, even in areas not obviously linked to the lymphatic system as a sarcomatous.

Lately indeed not 'rare to find mainly on the front of the body, near the mouth in particular. The thing
'anything but' proven but because most 'probable' that is due to increasing popularity 'of the catch and release. The tumor was in fact probably (an educated guess at the moment is not fully tested) based on viral and wounds caused by the hooks are good access roads.

The structure of these tumors and a 'very simple: a mass of tissue cells that grow without a generic organizational structure and are fed largely from host tissue by a dense network of capillaries. In addition to the viral cause cancer spreads in the population through the rupture of this tissue and the penetration of cell-free wounds.
The care and 'the prince in time where you exchange this contagion.

Given the mode 'of dissemination should not be surprising that the incidence of this tumor and' more than 20% in some populations of pike. A record in the animal world.

But 'cause I've never seen one? You say ..
Probably 'cause some people are more' affected than others and some are not affected. But above all, perhaps because 'caught mainly from autumn to spring, it thrives in the summer for lymphosarcoma then fall dramatically and disappear quietly when the water cools. Although once infected lymphosarcoma continue 'to grow each season, in the same place, as soon as conditions become favorable. Some authors have suggested that unlike the tumor withdraws during the hot season because of high temperatures, personally (and the photo above it and 'one of the tests) I have always found the opposite.

There 's also another factor, pike lymphosarcoma with a beautiful pink and lost all its obvious characteristics of camouflage and is normally preyed upon, not to mention all the cases in which it becomes a real impediment to nutrition and predation.

There 'to say but' which is' essentially a benign tumor, which does not kill the pike will 'directly will' in the long run. The pike with this disease remain healthy and strong, well, eat normally and live well after all.
not have much luck but 'the muskie that where populations overlap, are infected during the care and die, because for them, and' life threatening infection.

In general, however, 'there is no way to remove an infected sample, even though the meat still edible and the infection does not transmitted to humans, 'cause all in all we do not change one iota the incidence of disease in the population.

And then, frankly, would you dare to eat a fish like that?

Mafiopoli Tales # 2:

PEELED AND THE CARIBBEAN
A fascinating new scenario opens Mafiopoli, that real economic capital and crossroads di interessi gigamiliardari getta i ponti (ovviamente appaltati ad amici intimi) al di la dell'oceano. Basta con il grigiore metropolitano, il lavoro precario, la mobilità a stento, i diritti negati, i militari e i poliziotti ad ogni angolo della strada: andiamo tutti ad Antigua, il paradiso caraibico! Forse aveva questo in mente la nostra amata sindaca quando ha firmato l'accordo con il governo dell'isola, 140 milioni di euro (ufficiosamente, perchè i dati veri sono un segreto) per consentire a una folta schiera di milanesi, armata di ukulele e collana di fiori, di fare i bagagli per lasciarsi alle spalle definitivamente la vita di città e dedicarsi alla pesca e allo sport. E chi meglio del cittadino più illustre, nonchè premier of our country, could set an example to his fellow citizens? On the other hand, does anyone have a couple of offshore companies, some account in Switzerland and a handful of great speculation and illegal activities from which to draw money to build some nice villone on the beach? Everything else to the foundation Expo, with public money that finances the public lighting, sports fields and a school for young players, transport and links with the mainland, habitat and conservation of coral reefs and grants study of young Antiguan, earning a few points ahead of Smyrna competitor in the race for the award of the World's Fair. A noble project
and ambitious. But here, in our Mafiopoli, the accounts are still not fit. While the money flying around in the dream destination, all that the villa in Antigua do not have it must make do. And so the popular neighborhoods do not change a comma, with dilapidated buildings, no care for the environment and roads, and the closure of basic services and all areas of social life. Who can enjoy the Caribbean beaches, well-lit by hundreds of lanterns given away by the Milan Expo, and who will be left without light and gas in their homes or because defaulting occupant. Speculators in the territory and the lives of people, raping the earth, wasting hundreds of concrete and having vacant buildings, and those who can not to pay rent, let alone a mortgage.

Money wasted votes to beat Smyrna bought in the race for the Expo, hundreds of people left to themselves. But not all. We even discovered that Aler, the company that takes care of public housing assets, as well as keeping vacant apartments only about 5000 in Milan, in addition to evacuate those who can not afford the rent and who occupied a house out of necessity, does not seem problems have had to rent instead (do not know what, of course) two spaces it owns two openly neo-Nazi groups: the first is "Earth and people", junction of Pound House and the Northern League, who organized meetings "cultural" tra i quali ricordiamo il suggestivo "che razza di scuola sarà" con Mario Borghezio a sproloquiare sulla presenza di stranieri nelle nostre scuole; la seconda la ben più dura "Lealtà e azione", diretta emanazione di Hammerskin Italia, una banda di ragazzoni tatuati e pelati che si rifanno alla organizzazione Hammerskin, una costola staccatasi dallo statunitense Ku Klux Klan, ritenuto troppo moderato, che per festeggiare la marcia su Roma ha recentemente organizzato un convegno sul gerarca SS Leon Degrelle. E ancora, sono già in mano del partito dichiaratamente fascista Forza Nuova le chiavi di un altro spazio dell'Aler la cui inaugurazione è prevista il 18 dicembre, nonostante dopo le mobilitazioni degli ultimi giorni pare sia stata revocata the assignment. Not without regret that Councillor pidiellina Capotosti already honored by the news when he attended the parade in honor of fascist Ramelli after which changing the classification greetings Romans as "nonsense" and called his comrades "good guys".

It is not enough, we also had to attend only in recent months, with assessors who have been caught while receiving bribes from € 10 thousand for work in construction, municipal inspectors who "turned a blind eye" on the abuses in return for sexual favors, dozens of notices of officials and councilors for administrative violations, abuse of office and omissions in public documents, anti-racketeering associations that close in front of intimidation clans and a suicide attempt by those who fought a life and was opposed and abandoned by the institutions, 300 arrests of people involved with the 'Ndrangheta, including law enforcement officials and businessmen close to the councilors' s hinterland, to be told that "in Milan the Mafia does not exist."

These are the stories of Mafiopoli.
