Liz you can get tapeworm from raw or undercooked pork or beef that is infected with tapeworm. I would recommend the beef over the pork as pork tapeworm larvae can move out of the intestine into your brain.
A log (logarithm) is the exponent by which a base has to be raised to produce a number. For example, with a base of 10 then 1 log of 10 is 10, 2 logs of 10 is 100. An example of a one log reduction: You have 100 then reduce it by 1 log you end up with 10.

Have you ever heard of the shows "Monsters Inside Us?" I can't remember what channel, Animal Planet or A&E???
It's all about parasites and freaky sh!t like that.
I could never watch it, the commercial was awful enough. About as gross as Infested - Or whatever that show is.
I don't think its a tape worm, I found it in Photobucket. Tape worms don't have a skeleton, I think.
Where is Dr. Worm? I'm sure she can give us a lesson too.
