About Me
   

I have been in the IT business for over 35 years, starting as a mainframe operator to programmer, systems analyst, manager, director and Vice President of Technology. Because of some health issues I now find myself with lots of free time which I'm using to learn more about the online cyberworld. My online experience goes back to the early 1980's when I had one of those first CompuServe accounts (on a Commodore 64), then experience with BBSs (with a 300 baud modem), to AOL, then Netscape Navigator, IE, Firefox, et al. With my new "free time" I'm trying to explore and understand the Internet of the 21st century - Web 2.0, etc.

European spruce bark beetle

The European spruce bark beetle (Ips typographus), is a species of bark beetle in the true weevil family, Curculionidae. It is found in Europe and Asia Minor and east to China, Japan, North Korea and South Korea. Bark beetles are so named because they reproduce in the inner bark, living and dead phloem tissues, of trees. Their preferred trees in which to reside include spruces, firs, pines and larches. The species has the ability to spread quickly over large areas and some scientists hypothesize that long-distance movements originating from the Iberian Peninsula may have contributed to its invasion of northern Norway spruce forests. This female European spruce bark beetle was photographed in Naninne in the province of Namur, Belgium.
