  • Head louse

    The head louse (Pediculus humanus capitis) is an obligate ectoparasite of humans that causes pediculosis capitis. Head lice are wingless insects spending their entire life on the human scalp and feeding exclusively on human blood.Humans are the only known hosts of this specific parasite, while chimpanzees host a closely related species, Pediculus schaeffi. Other species of lice infest most orders of mammals and all orders of birds, as well as other parts of the human body.

    Lice differ from other hematophagic ectoparasites such as fleas in spending their entire life cycle 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 normally interbreed, although they will do so in laboratory conditions. From genetic studies, they are thought to have diverged as subspecies about 30,000–110,000 years ago, when many humans began to wear a significant amount of clothing. A much more distantly related species of hair-clinging louse, the pubic or crab louse (Pthirus pubis), also infests humans. It is visually different from the other two species and is much closer in appearance to the lice which infest other primates. Lice infestation of any part of the body is known as pediculosis.

    Changer Les Choses

    by: Nadiya

    J'aurais voulu changer les choses
    Changer le monde
    Avoir ce qu'il y a de mieux
    J'aurais voulu changer les choses
    Changer le monde
    Pour être encore un peu hereuse
    J'aurais voulu te parler et ne plus faire comme avant
    Attendre et espérer, on a perdu trop de temps
    Je n'avais plus les pieds sur terre, je ne croyais qu'en mes prières
    Mais les rêves qu'on a faits se sont tous envolés
    Je n'avais plus les pieds sur terre
    Je ne savais qu'être sincère
    Si seulement j'avais su
    Changer les choses
    Changer le monde
    Avoir ce qu'il y a de mieux
    J'aurais voulu changer les choses
    Changer le monde
    Pour être encore un peu heureuse
    On a brûlé notre amour en étant trop innocents
    Pour déjouer les mauvais tours à mon trop grand sentiment
    On n'avait pas les pieds sur terre, on ne voulait qu'être sincères
    J'y vois clair maintenant
    Changer les choses
    Changer le monde
    Avoir ce qu'il y a de mieux
    J'aurais voulu changer les choses
    Changer le monde
    Pour être encore un peu heureuse
    Changer les choses
    Changer le monde
    Avoir ce qu'il y a de mieux
    J'aurais voulu changer les choses
    Changer le monde
    Pour être encore un peu heureuse
    Changer de vie
    Changer aussi
    J'ai juste voulu changer d'histoire
    Encore y croire
    Changer de vie
    Changer aussi
    J'ai juste voulu changer de vie
    J'aurais voulu changer les choses
    Changer le monde
    Avoir ce qu'il y a de mieux
    J'aurais voulu changer les choses
    Changer le monde
    Pour être encore un peu heureuse
    Changer de vie
    Changer aussi
    J'ai juste voulu changer d'histoire
    Encore y croire
    Changer de vie
    Changer aussi
    J'ai juste voulu changer de vie
    Changer de vie
    Changer aussi
    J'ai juste voulu changer d'histoire
    Encore y croire
    Changer de vie
