- Bugscope Teamevil hackerz
- Bugscope Teamvista really is ugly
- Bugscope Teami agree
- Bugscope Teamvista is the best in the world. i love vista, i'm going to marry it.
- Bugscope Teami really hope thats sarcasm
- 3:06 pm
- Bugscope Teamdespite my dislike for its looks, i'm thinking ITG should go all-vista, all-the-time. vista server, vista workstation, vista business, vista ultimate, vista enterprise, outlook, access, etc. we could run bugscope from vista!
- Bugscope TeamYESSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
- Bugscope Teamwouldn't everybody like to use outlook?
- Bugscope Teami know alex would like to dump our mail server in favor of exchange.
- Bugscope Team*cringe*
- Bugscope Teamaww, cmon. where's your microsoft spirit?
- Bugscope Teami would like a large orea blizzard, that's what i want
- Bugscope Teami dont think i have one
- Bugscope Teamok, nevermind. i've changed my mind. we should get rid of every vista and/or XP machine in ITG.
- Bugscope Teamack!
- Bugscope Teamso, does this mean we can curse with the privchat?
- Bugscope Teamyeah, in theory anyway
- Bugscope Teamheh.
- 3:11 pm
- Bugscope Teami tried windows calendar. was all ready for a good experience. it's supposed to be iCal compatible, for example...
- Bugscope Teamcool, do you like ti so far?
- Bugscope Teambut it sux. inconsistent nonintuitive interface.
- Bugscope Teamdrag
- Bugscope Teami'm not sure how they made such a bad calendar program. it must have taken real effort.
- Bugscope Teamseems like a lot of vista is nonintuitive...
- Bugscope Teamhi bernie!
- 3:16 pm
- Bugscope Teamhey there!
- TeacherHi how are things in bugscope land?
- Bugscope Teamvery good, we are making presets right now.
- TeacherOk the girls are not in the room yet but I expect them at 3:30 pm sharp
- Bugscope Teamwe will be ready. do you want time to preactice before 3:30?
- TeacherSure what do you want me to try?
- Bugscope Teamokay, i unlocked the session, go ahead and try navagation the scope!
- 3:21 pm
- Bugscope TeamBernie -- is it easier to see the motion when you're using the "Click to Drive" function?
- Teacherok
- Bugscope Teamremember, you can always click on a preset (lower right) to center in on a good image.
- Bugscope Teamcool! now if you want to see more of the bug you are looking at, just reduce the mag, or move around too...
- TeacherVery cool! Everything seems to be working nicely. Are there more than one pre-sets
- Bugscope Teamcan't you see a scrollable list to the lower right?
- Bugscope Teamyes, you should see 7-8 of them on the lower right? do you?
- 3:27 pm
- Bugscope Teamyou should see a scroll bar, so you can scroll down and see all the presets?
- Bugscope Teamit might help to maximize the screen if its not
- Bugscope TeamYou can try hitting F11 to switch Firefox to full-screen, it may give you more space to see everything at once
- TeacherNo I just see the one.
- Bugscope Teamtry refreshing - hit F5 button
- Bugscope Teamthere should be a scroll-bar to the right of that preset you see where you can scroll down to see the rest of them
- TeacherAh...there we go. Thank you!
- Bugscope Teamwhat made it work? F5, srolling?
- TeacherHello everyone all the girls are here and they all have questions for you!
- Bugscope Teamawesome! welcome!
- Bugscope Teamwe're ready
- Bugscope Teamwe are ready to answer any questions, and to help you learn more about bugs. yah!
- Bugscope TeamOkay I am back. Thanks you guys.
- Bugscope TeamHello to Alena.
- TeacherMawata would like to know what we are seeing on the screen
Bugscope TeamThis is the leg of a beetle, and we're seeing some "hairs", the setae, sticking out of it
- Bugscope Teamthis is a beetle leg
- Bugscope Teamif you magnify out (-), you can see more of the bug to get a better idea of what you are looking at.
- 3:33 pm
- Bugscope Teamyou can decrease the magnification if you want to see more of the bug we are looking at
- Teacherhi I am Shadarian and I want to how many bones does a bettle leg has?
Bugscope Team0! The entire outside of the leg is made of a stiff material called chitin that supports their body the way bones do for us
- Bugscope TeamBeetles have no bones at all.
- Bugscope Teamwow! why not?
- Bugscope TeamThe legs have many segments, and I would say that they vary in number.
- Bugscope TeamI'll try to get you a little better answer.
- Teacheroh I didn't know that thanks alot
- Bugscope Teambernie: you can let one or more students login to ask questions directly so that you can concentrate on controlling the microscope
- Bugscope Teamon other computers. they'd just need to load the save web address as you did and it should just ask them for a login name
- Bugscope Teamby "save" I meant "same"
- Teacherhi my name is taighamere (tazz or taiga after the biome) and i would like to know do they breed or mate with each other?
Bugscope TeamI believe all (many?) insects reproduce sexually, then lay eggs
- 3:38 pm
- TeacherThe administrator left and she only set us up for one computer. I will arrange for that tomorrow. For now I will control the scope and let the girls ask questions
Bugscope Teamcool
- Bugscope TeamSome insects have very complicated mating rituals like dances that the male/female do with each other.
- Bugscope TeamThere are some beetles that have huge mouthparts (relative to their bodies) that they use for wrestling matches to decide who gets a mate
- Bugscope TeamThe sex organs of an insect are often not readily visible. The female may have an ovipositor for laying eggs, and a stinger is also considered a modified ovipositor.
- Teacher MAY I ASK WHAT IS AN TARSI SIGN TAIGA
Bugscope TeamWhereas we have only one joint in our legs, these insects sometimes have several joints, and thus several leg segments, some of which are called the tarsi
- Bugscope TeamSo sometimes you cannot tell the difference between the sexes without dissecting the insect.
- Bugscope TeamThe tarsi are the forearm segments.
- Bugscope TeamSingular would be tarsus.
- Bugscope TeamWe are looking right at some tarsi now.
- TeacherWHAT IS AN OVIPOSITOR SIGN TAIGA
Bugscope TeamThe ovipositor is an organ used by some of the arthropods for oviposition, i.e. the laying of eggs
- Bugscope TeamAn ovipositor is a tube used for laying eggs. Sometimes it sticks into small branches to lay the eggs. As with a cicada.
- 3:43 pm
- TeacherHI my name is shernetta and i wanted to know why did they call ladybugs,ladybugs?
Bugscope Teamthe word lady seems to originated from the virgin mary in the roman catholoic faith, but even that is not for certain. it is a nice name so it stuck, i guess?
- Bugscope TeamThat's a good question, meaning we can't answer it right away. But I imagine it is because they are small, round, brightly colored.
- Bugscope TeamThe word "lady" in the name is thought to allude to the Virgin Mary in the Roman Catholic faith according to wikipedia
- Bugscope TeamThey're cute, is what I think.
- Teacherthat's cool cathy
- Bugscope Teamwikipedia doesnt seem to say anything more about it though
- Teacherthey are cute scot
- Bugscope TeamThe Asian beetles are not so cute when they bite you.
- TeacherWhat is a dragonflt's favorite insect to eat?
Bugscope Teamdragonfly's eat mosquitos, and fly's and other small insects around lakes...
- Bugscope Teamalong the lines of the Virgin Mary allusion, they've also been called lucky bugs and many different cultures (internationally) seem to have traditions about them, usually that it's lucky to have one land on you
- Teacheroh. really sco!!
- Bugscope Teamah ok
- Teacherwatz up yall my name is mawata and i wanted too know where yall at
Bugscope Teamwatz up dog! we's be in urbana illinois.
- Bugscope TeamWe are in the basement of the Beckman Institute building at the University of Illinois in Urbana, IL.
- 3:48 pm
- Teacherevery 1 of u
- Bugscope TeamI'm upstairs
- Bugscope Teamyep
- Bugscope Teamall work in the same building
- Bugscope Teamwell, cathy is in another room, ben is upstairs. but we are all in the beckman instutute.
- Bugscope TeamSometimes our entomologist logs on from her apartment.
- Bugscope TeamFYI: entomologists study bugs
- Bugscope TeamWe could connect from anywhere.
- Teachery do they take out a mummy brain??
- Bugscope TeamSo it doesn't rot inside the head.
- Teacherthey are asking because we have a mummy in are lab here.
- Bugscope TeamThe soft tissue has to be removed and put in a jar, or jars.
- Bugscope TeamIt would smell bad as it rotted, then it would shrink and rattle around in there.
- Bugscope Teamthey kept the organs they removed in the jars next to the mummies. it was all part of their belief about how the spirits ascended into their afterlife
- Teacherhow many different bugs are in the world
Bugscope TeamThere are many many (millions?) that have been identified, but it's thought that there may be far more we've never seen hidden in places like rainforests
- Bugscope TeamI know that in some cases they don't remove the brain, though. We scanned one here (with CT) that still had the brain in it. It was shriveled and sitting at the back of the head when it was scanned.
Bugscope Teamhere's a picture: http://www.itg.uiuc.edu/exhibits/gallery/pages/image-70.htm
- Bugscope TeamThe jars are called canopic jars.
- 3:54 pm
- Teacherdo u speak man-d-go and if u do do u know wat i-d mean
- Bugscope Teambeetle head!
- Bugscope Teamyou can see the big curved jaws in the middle there
- Teacherce-ce & hawa/ how big is the biggest beattle in the world??????????
Bugscope TeamThe Titanus giganteus can get up to 170mm (over 6 inches) in length.
- Bugscope TeamThe goliath beetle is a big as a fist.
- Bugscope TeamThat is commonly cited as the largest beetle.
- TeacherHi, my name is Ashley and i was wondering do beetles have brains
Bugscope Teamyes, all insects have brains, although they're very small
- Bugscope Teamas big as
- Bugscope TeamI should've said
- Bugscope TeamI also found this reference for largest beetle: Titanus giganteus, a member of the Cerambycidae native to South America.
- Bugscope Team"An adult male apparently bit and shattered a plastic ruler used as a size relationship by a photographer. "
- 3:59 pm
- Bugscope Teamcheck out these pictures of golaith beetles!!! http://beetlespace.wz.cz/e_Goliathus_cacicus.html
Bugscope Teamwow, that's incredible!
- Bugscope TeamAnnie studies cerambycids; I'm sorry she's not here today.
- TeacherWhat's the biggest bug in Wisconsin
- Bugscope TeamUmmm.
- TeacherAre all insects beetles???
Bugscope Teamno. there are many types of beetles, but they're still only a small proportion of all insects. their name means "sheathed wing" which is how you can identify them
- Bugscope TeamAll beetles are insects but not the other way around.
- Bugscope TeamSo not all insects are beetles.
- Bugscope TeamNot all insects are true bugs, either.
- Bugscope TeamThe hard part -- the sheath over the wing -- is called the elytra.
- Bugscope Teamthe "sheathed" means the wings have a hard casing around them, so from the top they look shiny usually, and appear to have a slit going down their back where the two halves of the wing casing meet
- 4:06 pm
- Bugscope TeamThey are supposed to run 'til 4:30.
- Bugscope TeamAnd they'll be back tomorrow.
- Bugscope TeamTomorrow it's 4 to 5 p.m.
- Bugscope TeamAlex she was supposed to have another group in at 4.
- Bugscope Teamokay.
- 4:12 pm
- Bugscope TeamI don't see how to call her yet.
- Bugscope TeamI am trying to call Gaye-Lynn now.
- Bugscope Teamvoicemail and I didn't leave a message
- Bugscope TeamAh there she is!
- Bugscope TeamHello!
- Bugscope Teamhi lynn!
- Bugscope Teamhey lynn
- Bugscope TeamLynn let us know if we can help you navigate.
- Bugscope TeamOr anything else.
- TeacherHey sorry! we unplugged the computer! Some girls have large feet
- Bugscope Teamah ha
- Bugscope Teamheh. that's okay.
- Bugscope Teamsome of us are used to having large feet and are more careful
- Bugscope Teamgenerally
- TeacherHow manydifferent bugs are in the United States
- 4:17 pm
- Bugscope Teamthousands of species
- Bugscope Teamnot sure who knows
- Bugscope Teammillions, according to wikipedia, but it's hard to give an exact number. we don't know all the bugs there are.
- TeacherHi my name is Jazmyne and i wanted know how do you describe love and wat is love
- Bugscope Team91,000 described species and 73,000 estimated undescribed in the US
Bugscope Teambut those are the numbers for TYPES of bugs. there could be thousands, millions of each type
- Bugscope Teamthat is a tough one
- Teacherhow long have you been interested in sciene
Bugscope Teammy dad is a professor at the university here, so I grew up always hearing about and being fascinated by science
- Bugscope Teamhow about wanting the best for someone else no matter what
- Bugscope TeamWell she said different bugs
- Bugscope Teamhow many different bugs in the US
- Bugscope Teamyeah since I could talk probably
- Bugscope Teamit's natural to wonder about what is around you
- Teacher what is your favorite biome
Bugscope Teamfor bugs, it'd probably be Tropical humid forests. they are home to some of the wildest looking ones
- 4:22 pm
- Bugscope TeamLynn be sure to drive around to some of the other presets, or wherever you would like to go.
- Bugscope TeamI'll try not to chas
- Bugscope TeamDon't know what is my favorite biome -- I suppose it's where I live.
- Bugscope TeamThe ocean is pretty cool.
- TeacherWhat is your favorite animal and have you ever been to biome?
- Bugscope Teammy favorie animals are dogs. what's yours?
- Bugscope TeamI like puffer fish.
- TeacherI like dolphins
- Bugscope Teamtheir biome would be a reef, maybe?
- Bugscope Teambiome seems to have a loose definition
- Bugscope Teamdolphins are very intelligent animals.
- Bugscope Teammaybe ...
- Teacherno it's marine biome?
- Bugscope Teamthey navy has trained dolphins they use to protect our coasts!
- 4:27 pm
- Bugscope Teamand international coasts too... they actually transport them long distances. they do things like search out bombs underwater, etc
- Bugscope TeamI can learn something from you on this...
- Teacher HI IT'S TAIGA AGAIN AND I WOULD LKE TO KNOW WHAT ARE THE MOST COMMON BIOMES FOR BEATTLE???/////
Bugscope TeamI can't think of any regions of the world that don't have beetles, except maybe the arctic. Deserts, swamps, forests, grasslands, mountainous regions
- Bugscope TeamThat was me, htting the preset.
- Bugscope TeamBeetles are generally terrestrial, for starters.
- Bugscope TeamThey live in almost any terrestrial environment.
- TeacherOK THANK YOU BYE
- Bugscope Teamsee you!
- Bugscope TeamThat's it?
- Bugscope TeamSee you tomorrow!
- Bugscope TeamThank you!
