ANTS DON'T HATE SEX...... Have you seen ants making love before?


Have you seen ants making love before? They do better in mating but have better use for their pheromones and that makes them the wisest among animals.

Organisms can communicate or mate with each other is through the use of pheromones. An organism develops and emits these hormonal chemicals in order to relay a message to another member of the same species. Ants and bees demonstrate two prominent examples of pheromone usage, which acknowledges their incredible capability to organize the behaviors of the whole colony.

Called pheromones, they are biochemicals secreted from the body of an individual to impact the behavior of another individual receiving it.

Ants produce numerous different pheromones, each with its own distinct purpose. Ants secrete pheromones  to signal danger to the colony, or to give directions about a location. Other pheromones act as deterrents keeping out unwanted ants from foreign colonies or preying insectivores. Still other pheromones communicate ants to congregate. This explains how assiduous ants exercise remarkable cooperation in building a colony. Pheromones maintain the cohesiveness and organization of the complex ant communities. Certain types, such as alarm pheromones, produce a “releaser effect”, which induces a quick response and may be used to tell other ants to evacuate a dangerous area such as an approaching lawnmower. For example, when a spider approaches an ant will release alarm pheromones that alert all the other ants. Ants may also discharge alarm pheromones as a result from being diverted from their work, e.g. heavy human steps. Releaser pheromones are also used to mark territory. As the chemical deposited dries, it signals to other species members of the territory’s occupant. That is why ants are termed Colony; Colonizing all areas they want and living in a mansion called Ant hill.

However, other animals take delight in using their special gifts and nature for basically mating.
1. The blue and green peacock (male of the peafowl species) uses his enormous tail feathers to attract a mate.
2. Female deer find larger antlers attractive, and males often use them in competition for mates, just like in arm wrestling.
3. The widowbird is unique with the 50cm (nearly two feet) long tail-feathers that weigh the males down in attraction. The only function they serve is attraction for mating.
4. Guppies perform a sort of mating dance to attract mates, the brightly colored males growing long tails to emphasize the way their bodies twist and turn.
5. Males( Sage grouse) use their chests as inflatable display pieces (proudly chest out) as a part of its mating dance, Although looking odd yet comfortable and attract females.
6. After hibernation, a female red sided garter snake releases a pheromone that attracts hundreds of males to surround her in a gigantic mating ball.
7. Galapagos Giant Tortoises might have to stick their neck out to get a girl, literally. The males will stretch out their necks to determine who gets to mate, and only the tortoise with the longest neck will get to mount a female for their long hourly noisy coitus.

The message in short is that when you have what it takes to make it big in life, Do not desire only in the pleasure but use your leisure to create something worth the measure.

UnWILLING to Wail

To them all who fail to fall, The frail who don’t wail, Who smile to sad e-mails, Just because they’re males. I know a man who loves One that eats with gloves Starving just to feed his own Yes, everyone at home he owes. I know a strong man! Not for his muscles and biceps But for always saying “I can” Without knowing the precepts. Everyone looks up to him But when he looks up Even the lights onto him dim And doors begin to shut. I know this boy now old; Doing just as he was told “Men don’t cry so be bold” He swallowed his pains And bound all emotions chains. He must in sadness give out bliss? In darkness must he illuminate In drought he was the waterfall  When the rains came, he was last to drink. He sleeps at dawn and awakens same Goes insane to make his family sane He must be frugal and yet extravagant  In all, he dares not say I can’t.  No body cares he gets the courage. Yet if death defeats him in marriage, They awake early in the morning  Not for lack of sleep du...

YOUR own PEN

Something mostly divine, Sometimes, it's ours to define. Unlike the plant called Vine, Destiny seldom has pine. And it is our duty to prune and refine. From the feet till we see the spine. It may be a good omen, To which we shout Amen. It might have a fault to mend or dirt to filter, Which might make us think that God did falter. But we can write our own destiny. Yes, we always do. Remember that road you used to the mill, The particular person you talked to, Has it not been your own will? When you wanted to learn, Even when in prayer you did yearn, You took that training seriously, And you passed out successfully, That was your own destiny. That was your pen on paper. When you write, no one can alter. I am the secretary of the God you don't know. Now wait while I print yours out to show. Written down by you as white as snow.

DREAMSCAPE

An experience of a walking life; Or thoughts of the day in motion at night, Flowing peacefully in spirit like a kite. Awaiting an Estimated Time of Arrival, In your heart’s own built terminal. You woke up from the thunderous snore, Just to realize you were in a slumber. But you vividly remember; The realities you did encounter, And how beautiful it was that you saw. So you shared your story in the morning, While you were still yawning. Yes you shared; With people of like-mindedness. And boom! you are a hit; A one time wander, Now a lifetime wonder, With whom everyone wants to sit, But your dreams, don’t let them plunder. You are now a champion, So go ahead my companion. Go ahead with that plan; Store as many as you can, If it can’t be frozen, just get it canned.
