Traditionally rung in with the rampant purchasing of sale-priced items, the beginning of Holiday Season™ is now celebrated instead with Black Fly Day.

		<description><![CDATA[Microsoft magnate and celebrated philanthropist Bill Gates is bringing attention to mosquitoes and mosquito-born diseases in what he&#8217;s calling Mosquito Week as an homage to Discovery Channel&#8217;s yearly shark extravaganza. Modelling his outreach event after the &#8220;scary&#8221; world of sharks is pretty brilliant in my opinion, especially when you bring in the numbers of how <a href='http://www.biodiversityinfocus.com/blog/2014/04/29/bill-gates-declares-this-to-be-mosquito-week/' class='excerpt-more'>[...]</a>]]></description>
