It is estimated that 200,000 Americans have the most severe form of Tourette syndrome, and as many as one in 100 exhibit milder and less complex symptoms such as chronic motor or vocal tics or transient tics of childhood.
The Bluegill (Lepomis macrochirus) is a species of freshwater fish sometimes referred to as bream, brim, or copper nose. It is a member of the sunfish family Centrarchidae of the order Perciformes. It is native to North America and lives in streams, rivers, lakes, and ponds. It is commonly found east of the Rockies.
Although bluegill are the prevalent sunfish in most bass water throughout the United States, other species play a roll in the mix of sunfish predation by bass. Largemouth will eat green sunfish, pumpkinseed, rock bass, longear and even crappie. Many of these other more aggressive sunfish can force bluegill out of the grass into open water. If the impoundment gets overpopulated, bluegill will eat their own eggs.
