Figures on the size and composition of the Bolivian army vary considerably, with little official data available. It was in this atmosphere that the Kosovo Liberation Army (KLA) emerged. The origins of the Engineers Corps date back to approximately 1362 AH (1943 CE) when the Construction Division was established to maintain army buildings, initially based in Taif. Would you like to specialize, work independently or assume a management or leadership position in a larger company or in your own construction company? This position has often put it at a disadvantage when it comes to wars. A worthy politician, Flamininus was put in charge of the political affairs of the Greek states between 197 and 194 BC and granted independence to the Greek people. “When a key figure on the right can tweet a joke about an 82-year-old man getting hit by a hammer, and thousands of people like it, that is a sign of real danger,” Kleinfeld writes.

People who perceive political bias in the media may also be especially concerned. Fleas may seem like a minor nuisance, but they are actually responsible for one of the deadliest pandemics in human history: the Black Death. It may come as a surprise, but the common housefly is one of the most dangerous insects due to its role in spreading disease. The driver ant (one species of the family of army ants) is one of the most dangerous ant species in the world. In severe cases, fire ant venom can cause an allergic reaction, leading to hospitalization or even death. Infected mosquitoes pass these pathogens into the bloodstream, leading to millions of deaths and injuries globally each year. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), the United States spends a higher portion of its gross domestic product on health care every year than any other country. It wasn’t long before radio became standard equipment in police cruisers across the country. It was April 1928, and a Detroit police officer named Kenneth Cox, along with an engineering student Robert L. Batts, devised a system for police to receive radio calls in their cars.

Vincent Doyle, installed the nation’s first two-way police radio system for use in the city’s patrol cars. It first began appearing in print in the early 19th century. During the first years of World War II, Italy had only small light and medium tanks (L3/35, L6/40, M11/39, M13/40 and M15/42) tanks. While they mostly attack other small animals, humans bitten by assassin bugs can suffer serious health consequences. Found in Africa, they travel in massive swarms that can devour everything in their path, including small animals. Sand flies are tiny but dangerous insects that transmit leishmaniasis, a parasitic disease that can cause skin ulcers, fever and, in severe cases, damage to internal organs. This disease affects the central nervous system and can be fatal if untreated. This insect transmits Chagas disease by biting humans, typically around the face, and then defecating near the wound. While the bullet ant’s sting is not usually fatal, the pain is so severe that it’s considered one of the worst experiences to come out of the insect world. In 1937, Charles “Charlie” Hopper, communication director for the Illinois State Police, solved the problem by devising a system of codes that allowed police to talk to one another in a timely and more efficient fashion.

The portable AM radio communication system they dreamed up was innovative but limited – it only worked one way. Although primitive, the system was about to change police work forever. Radio engineer Frank A. Gunther, and police Lt. 10-7, “out to lunch.” The 10-codes were a major innovation at the time, and new police officers were required to learn them. Leishmaniasis can be fatal if not treated promptly, making sand flies a major health concern in certain parts of the world. Their bites are painful and often lead to severe illness in rural parts of Africa. Although modern medicine has greatly reduced the threat of plague, flea bites can still lead to serious health issues. Do you think you can name all the songs of the ’60s? There are no rules when choosing a song for the dance, so feel free to think outside the box. When you think of the most dangerous creatures on Earth, you might picture big animals like sharks or lions, but the insect world is filled with tiny critters capable of causing serious harm. The most dangerous insect can kill by spreading deadly diseases, and others achieve the same end with toxic venom. However, there was a huge drawback: Not every police department used the same 10-codes, a standardization problem that still exists today.
