1. What are the  5 most common pathologies of horses? Mention them and give a little description too.
   
     Rhinopneumonitis: is caused by a virus of the family Herpesviridae, Equine herpesvirus 4 (EHV-4) . It is the most important viral cause of respiratory infection in foals. Like other herpes viruses, EHV-4 causes a lifelong latent infection in affected animals.

     Adenitis : This is an acute disease which affects horses of all ages, caused by Streptococcus equi. It produces inflammation of the upper respiratory tract and abscesses of the retropharyngeal and/or mandibular lymph nodes. More frequent clinical symptoms are fever, serous nasal secretion which then turns into mucopurulent and pharyngitis which can obstruct swallowing.

    Equine infectious anemia : Equine infectious anemia or equine infectious anaemia (EIA), also known by horsemen as swamp fever, is a horse disease caused by a retrovirus and transmitted by bloodsucking insects.

     Equine viral arteritis : Equine viral arteritis (EVA) is an economically important viral disease of equids. Stallions can become long term carriers of the virus, and transmit it during breeding.

     Azoturia :  It has variously been referred to as Monday morning disease, tying up, set fast, exertional rhabdomyolytis (ER) and paralytic myoglobinuria.  Azoturia or ER is usually, but not always associated with exercise. This is typically the fit horse, for example the racing horse or performance horse who 'ties up' after a spell of exercise. The syndrome has also been associated with horses returning to work after a spell of rest who have been maintained on full rations.

My favourite piece of tecnology is my electric guitar. I got it 4 years ago, but I learnt to play electric guitar 7 years ago. although I have my favourite bands, I try to play all kinds of music. I use to play songs of bands like scorpions, metallica, pink floyd, linkin park, among others.

I use the guitar everyday but not always my electric guitar because same days I play at night, so I can't  make too much noise, in this case i play my electro acoustic guitar, but I dont conect it to the amplifier.

I like it so much because i enjoy playing my guitar. all day I arrive to my home so tired and stressed, and a little time playing my guitar, is necessaty to relax me. without my guitar my life would not be the same because in my free time i guess i would have to use my computer and stay all my free time in facebook.

hello guys! i'm going to tell you about my love by music!
i like all kind of music but my favorite music style is rock. my favourite band is scorpions.
scorpions is a rock band from hannover, germany, formed in 1965, being the first band of hard rock in germany. They are known for their 1980s rock anthem "Rock you like a hurricane" and many singles, such as " No one like you", " Send me an angel" "still loving you", and "Wind of change". They play hard rock and heavy metal.
i like this band in all aspects, the vocalist's voice, the sound of their musical instruments too.
my favourite song of them is " still loving you" because i like the chords' sound if this song and the topic too.
This song talks about a story about a love affair, where they recognized it may be over, but let's try again. The song is also considered a thinly veiled metaphor for a still divided Eastern & Western Germany.

Here i have uploaded the video from this great song. Enjoy
