The Vampire – The Myth, Legend and Reality
David Slone asked:
Vampires and vampire legend play significant roles in the cultures of many areas around the world. These blood-sucking beings are most common in the cultures of Eastern Europe, although similar manifestations are reported in some Asian cultures as well as some ancient cultures. Vampire legends have a distinct background bridging several cultures and eras, making them some of the most compelling stories ever told.
The first step in understanding vampire lore is to understand some of the biological reasons that may have led to such beliefs. One of the most plausible explanations for vampire myths is the disease porphyria, which occurred frequently in Transylvania. Engagement Rings Denver . Porphyria is a blood-related condition where a vital function of blood cells is lost. This results in rapid tissue damage, giving the victim a ghastly pallor and enlarged teeth due to gum damage. The effects of porphyria are greatly amplified upon exposure to the sun, making sun light a likely threat victims would try to avoid at all costs. It is also believed that certain strains of porphyria are associated with neurological conditions, which would result in insanity. This condition also explains the practice of drinking blood, as these people would likely drink animal blood as a cure for the anemia associated with porphyria. Another explanation for this legend is the disease rabies, as it leads to hypersensitivity, unusual sleep patterns, and intense sexuality. Rabies is also associated with the compulsion to bite others, and a bloody foaming at the mouth. These two diseases could possibly explain the origins of vampire legends, and perhaps also why they are so widespread.
From the beginning of history, vampire-like spirits and beings have been recorded. The Akhkharu were blood-sucking demons, written about back in the time of Sumer. The ancient Chinese wrote about "hopping corpses" which would go around and consume a victim's life essence (commonly known as chi). Even ancient Egyptian lore had a story where the goddess Sakhmet was consumed with bloodlust. From the earliest of times, vampire like beings have been prominent in folklore from several different cultures.
The most well-known versions of vampire myth are those of the Slavic and Romanian cultures, which, due to their proximity, are surprisingly similar. Both have several reasons that a person may become a vampire, such as unnatural death, birth defects, or conception on certain days. Romanian legend gave rise to the belief that being bitten by a vampire would doom one to become a vampire after death. Both Slavic and Romanian myths hold the belief that, with the advent of a vampire, there would be deaths of livestock and family members of the vampire. The favored way to kill a vampire in these two myths is by driving a stake through the heart, decapitation, and if necessary, dismemberment. phlebotomist pay . Slavic and Romanian vampire myths have given rise to the most popular world-view of vampires.
Vampire legends have played a significant role in the folklore of many regions of the world, since the beginning of history in Sumer, and they will continue to be important through such media as movies, books, and video games well into the future.

Why Does the Tooth Fairy Come Late?
Stacy Rose asked:
Santa Claus delivers gifts without fail every December 24th, and the Easter Bunny is always prompt on the eve of Easter, but the Tooth Fairy doesn't always show up when children are expecting her. Why?
Well for one thing, the poor little fairy is overworked. Atlanta Search Engine Optimization . She doesn't travel the globe only once a year, but must go out every night with hardly any vacation time at all (replacements are so hard to train). There are some nights when the list of children to visit is simply too much to handle, and she must wait for the next night or even the next.
Another reason is once in a great while she will suffer an injury like a broken wing. It happens! Sometimes an over-friendly pet will catch her or she might bump into a window she thought was open. Thankfully, she heals quickly, but it may be a little while before she can start her rounds again.
Sickness in fairies is less common than in humans. Atlanta Garbage Disposal Repair . They are immune to most of our diseases, but there is a particularly nasty virus called the Fairy Flu which causes high fevers and fatigue. When the Tooth Fairy has the Fairy Flu there is no way she can do the flying that is needed to reach all the children with missing teeth.
She regrets that she has earned a reputation for being flighty. She takes her job seriously and honestly wants to make children happy with prompt service, but emergencies do arise. She truly apologizes if this has happened in your family, and begs your forgiveness.
