"Love Grows (Where My Rosemary Goes)" is a popular song by "one-hit wonder" Edison Lighthouse. The single hit the number one spot in the UK singles chart on 31 January 1970 where it remained for a total of five weeks."Love Grows (Where My Rosemary Goes)" was written by Tony Macaulay, Barry Mason and Sylvan Whittingham. Essentially they were a studio group with prolific session singer Tony Burrows providing the vocals. When the song became number one a group needed to be put together rapidly to feature on the popular TV show Top Of The Pops. Sylvan Whittingham found a group called Greenfields and brought them to the auditions a week before Top of the Pops.

Once chosen and rehearsed non stop they appeared on
the show as 'Edison Lighthouse' to mime to the
fastest climbing no 1 hit record in history.
Burrows sang the song on the programme, which
happened to be his third appearance on the
same show with three different groups.

It reached number 5 on US pop chart, number 3 in Canada,
and number 1 on the UK Singles Chart for five weeks in
January and February 1970.
Love Grows Where My Rosemary Goes


She ain't got no money
Her clothes are kinda funny
Her hair is kinda wild and free
Oh, but love grows where my Rosemary goes
And nobody knows like me

She talks kinda lazy
And people say she's crazy
And her life's a mystery
Oh, but love grows where my Rosemary goes
And nobody knows like me

There's something about her hand holding mine
It's a feeling that's fine
And I just gotta say
She's really got a magical spell
And it's working so well
That I can't get away

I'm a lucky fella
And I've just got to tell her
That I love her endlessly
Because love grows where my Rosemary goes
And nobody knows like meThere's somehing about her hand holding mine
It's a feeling that's fine
And I just gotta say
She's really got a magical spell
And it's working so well
That I can't get away

I'm a lucky fella
And I've just got to tell her
That I love her endlessly
Because love grows where my Rosemary goes
And nobody knows like me

Fadout:
It keeps growing every place she's been
And nobody knows like me

If you've met her, you'll never forget her
And nobody knows like me

La la la - believe it when you've seen it
Nobody knows like me

MY FAR AWAY SWEET ROSEMARY

Encephalitis lethargica - "Sleeping Sickness"

Constantin von Economo
ICD-10 A85.8
ICD-9 049.8
Diseases DB 32498

Encephalitis lethargica (EL) or von Economo disease is an atypical form of encephalitis. Also known as "sleepy sickness" or as "sleeping sickness" (though different from the sleeping sickness transmitted by the tsetse fly), EL was first described by the neurologist Constantin von Economo (1876-1931) in 1917, EL attacks the brain, leaving some victims in a statue-like condition, speechless and motionless.Encephalitis Lethargica was a devastating
illness that swept the world in the 1920's.
And unfortunately still persists even today.

It attacked the brain, leaving victims like living statues, speechless and motionless.During the outbreak, nearly a million died, and millions more were left frozen inside their useless bodies, in institutions.Encephalitis can be very serious. Brain damage occurs as the inflamed brain pushes against the skull, and can lead to death. No-one knew what had caused it, or how to treat it.

Japanese encephalitis (JE),

Japanese encephalitis is a potentially serious disease
spread by infected mosquitoes in parts of Asia.
It is a severe epidemic infection of brain tissue seen in East and Southeast Asia and the South Pacific, including Australia and New Zealand. The virus is carried by domestic pigs and wild birds. The disease is characterized by shaking chills, paralysis, and weight loss and is caused by Flavivirus transmitted by the mosquito Culex tritaeniorhynchus. Symptoms include headache, fever, neck stiffness, tremors, seizures, spastic paralysis, and coma. Mortality rate ranges widely from 0.3% to 60%. Various neurologic and psychiatric sequelae are common. An inactivated JE vaccine is available and recommended for travel to endemic areas. What Is Japanese Encephalitis?
Japanese encephalitis is a potentially severe viral disease that is spread by infected mosquitoes in the agricultural regions of Asia. It is one of several diseases that is caused by a mosquito-borne virus. Japanese encephalitis can affect the central nervous system and cause severe complications, including death. There is no specific treatment for this disease.

What Causes Japanese Encephalitis?

Japanese encephalitis is caused by an arbovirus. Arbovirus is short for arthropod-borne virus. Arboviruses are a large group of viruses that are spread by certain invertebrate animals (arthropods), most commonly, blood-sucking insects. Like most arboviruses, Japanese encephalitis is spread by infected mosquitoes.

How Is Japanese Encephalitis Transmitted?


The Japanese encephalitis virus has a complex life cycle
involving domestic pigs and a specific type of mosquito,
Culex tritaeniorhynchus, that lives in rural rice-growing
and pig-farming regions.The mosquito breeds in flooded rice fields, marshes,
and standing water around planted fields.

Where Is Japanese Encephalitis Found?

Many of these areas are in Asia, including Japan, Korea, China, India, Thailand, Indonesia, Malaysia, Vietnam, Taiwan, and the Philippines. Areas where the disease-causing arbovirus is always present are referred to as being endemic for the disease. In such areas, blood tests will reveal that more than 70% of all adults have been infected at some point with the arbovirus.

Because the virus that causes Japanese encephalitis is carried by mosquitoes, the number of people infected increases during those seasons when mosquitoes are abundant. This tends to be in the warmest, rainiest months. In addition to humans, other animals like wild birds, pigs, and horses are susceptible to infection with this arbovirus. Japanese encephalitis is a seasonal disease that usually occurs in the summer and fall in the temperate regions of China, Japan, and Korea. In other places, disease patterns vary with rainy seasons and irrigation practices.

Because the specific type of mosquito carrying the Japanese encephalitis arbovirus frequently breeds in rice paddies, the disease is considered to be primarily a rural problem. Infection can also occur near urban areas in some developing Asian countries.
Prognosis

While the majority of people infected with arbovirus never become sick, those who develop Japanese encephalitis become very ill. Some outbreaks have a 50% death rate. A variety of long-term problems may haunt those who recover from the illness.

These problems include:
* Movement difficulties where the arms, legs, or body jerks or writhes involuntarily
* Shaking
* Paralysis
* Inability to control emotions
* Loss of mental abilities
* Mental disturbances, including schizophrenia (which may affect as many as 75% of Japanese encephalitis survivors).

DEDICATED ALSO TO A LONG AGO TIME WHEN WE WERE SO YOUNG &
IN DIVINE TRIBUTE TO OUR PARENTS (ELVIS-BEATLES) GENERATION

Treatment


Currently, there is neither a vaccine nor a drug available to prevent infection with sleeping sickness. There are drugs available for treatment of the disease, but at present, the drugs are scarce, difficult to administer, and sometimes dangerous. One of the original drugs developed to combat sleeping sickness, atoxyl, contained arsenic and caused blindness in hundreds of patients in 1932. A drug called melarsoprol was developed to prevent such side effects, but there are very limited supplies remaining. A drug has been developed to treat sleeping sickness but up until very recently it was too expensive and therefore not available to many of the poor countries.ONCE AGAIN DEDICATED IN MEMORIAM TO...

IN FOND MEMORY ~ TRIBUTE AND IN MEMORIAM FOR...

MARY TRAVERS (November 9, 1936 – September 16, 2009)

was an American singer-songwriter and member of the folk group Peter, Paul and Mary, along with Peter Yarrow and Noel "Paul" Stookey. Peter, Paul and Mary was one of the most successful folk-singing groups of the 1960s.

Unlike most folk musicians who were a part of the early 1960s Greenwich Village music scene, Travers actually grew up in that New York neighborhood. She was born in Louisville, Kentucky, to Robert Travers and Virginia Coigney, both of whom were journalists and were active organizers for The Newspaper Guild, a trade union. In 1938, the family moved to Greenwich Village in New York City. She attended the Little Red School House there, but left in the eleventh grade to pursue her singing career.SINGING CAREER
While in high school, she joined The Song Swappers, which sang backup for Pete Seeger when Folkways Records reissued a union song collection, Talking Union, in 1955. The Song Swappers recorded a total of four albums for Folkways in 1955, all with Seeger. Travers regarded her singing as a hobby and was shy about it, but was encouraged by fellow musicians. Travers also was in the cast of the Broadway-theatre show, The Next President.

The group Peter, Paul and Mary was formed in 1961, and they were an immediate success. They shared a manager, Albert Grossman, with Bob Dylan. Their success with Dylan's "Don't Think Twice, It's All Right" helped propel Dylan's Freewheelin' album into the Top 30 four months after its release.Their version of "If I Had a Hammer" became an anthem for racial equality, as did Bob Dylan's "Blowin' in the Wind", which they performed at the August 1963 March on Washington."Puff, the Magic Dragon" is so well-known that it has entered American and British pop culture.

The group broke up in 1970, and Travers subsequently pursued a solo career and recorded five albums: Mary (1971), Morning Glory (1972), All My Choices (1973), Circles (1974) and It's in Everyone of Us(1978). The group re-formed in 1978, toured extensively and issued many new albums. The group was inducted into the Vocal Group Hall of Fame in 1999.

In 2005, Travers was diagnosed with leukemia.
Although a bone-marrow transplant apparently
slowed the progression of the disease,
Mary Travers died on September 16, 2009,
at Danbury Hospital in Danbury, Connecticut,
from complications arising from chemotherapy.
She was 72 years old.

MAY SHE R.I.P. FOR HER MEMORY SHALL ENDURE FOREVER
