Fostering a feel for a future in furniture design
Keen to encourage up-and-coming fresh new talent, our London Design Studio team eagerly took work experience student Ollie under their wing at the end of June, as he prepares to study Product Design at Sheffield University.
Giving him the opportunity to experience a B2B environment and use his skills with real-life design examples, here’s what Ollie did during his placement at 111 Charterhouse Street in Clerkenwell.
“During my three days at Sven’s London Design Studio, I improved my knowledge of furniture design, gained insight into how competitive this industry can be, and grasped the basics of some neat new design software.
Tasked with researching into UK office furniture manufacturers and commercial designers meant I could see what other companies offer and what makes Sven stand out from the crowd.
I also explored the many products that make up Sven’s furniture portfolio, and the different features that each range offers. My personal favourite is the Ambus range. Why? Because it shows the creativity and ingenuity of Sven’s design team: for example, Ambus tables have a unique look yet cater for different work environments, so clearly appeal to different types of businesses.
Another assignment included learning how to use Google SketchUp. Extremely useful! I had no previous experience with this 3D modelling software prior to working with Sven but, after learning the basics and designing a few simple ideas, I’ve gained enough knowledge to successfully apply it to my A-level course work.
If I had to pick what I enjoyed the most it would definitely involve AutoCAD – something I’m not familiar with – and perfecting my skills on Google SketchUp for my designs.
With the number of tasks set, I was certainly kept busy during my time with Sven. It’s been a really valuable placement and has motivated me towards a degree in furniture design so that I can pursue this career path.”
Thank you for spending time with us Ollie: we enjoyed having you around. And we wish you all the very best with your studies.

Argentina's stock market is roaring in 2014.
Since Jan. 1, the Buenos Aires-based Merval index is up more than 44%, despite Monday's 0.4% decline. It's trouncing the performance of Brazil (see the ETF performance on the International Leaders page, today on B10).
What's going on? The country has been taking fresh steps to regain the confidence of overseas investors and creditors since suffering the devastating effects of a $95 billion default on sovereign debt in 2001.
Last week, Argentine Economic Minister Axel Kicillof announced that the government has agreed to settle $9.7 billion worth of outstanding debt. It plans to pay back the debt over a five- to seven-year time frame at a maximum interest rate of 3.8%, according to Bloomberg News. An accord with the so-called Paris Club group of lenders will make it easier in the future for companies to obtain financing at a reasonable cost in order to invest in the South American economy.
Meanwhile, General Electric (NYSE:GE) has a bullish view on the region. GE Vice Chairman John Rice told Bloomberg that the firm sees 10% to 15% annual revenue growth in Latin America during the next few years as demands for more electricity, clean water and efficient transportation systems grow. GE also expects to get $10 billion in orders this year.
These anecdotal pieces of evidence may be one reason why investor demand is returning to companies such as banking and insurance giant Grupo Financiero Galicia (NASDAQ:GGAL), which made Monday's Stock Spotlight screen. Galicia has rebounded back into double-digit territory and the stock's average daily volume is north of 400,000 shares.
Galicia's fundamentals are quite good in multiple respects. The 92 EPS Rating masks year-over-year declines in three of the past five quarters. However, the three-year earnings stability factor is excellent at 12 on a scale of 0 to 99.
Galicia's top line has grown on average 10.5% over the past six quarters, a slowdown vs. recent years. But return on equity has topped 30% three years in a row.

DescriptionThe V-Tras transition system, designed by Romberg Sersa, consists of a steel ladder type module between the sleepers and ballast layer. This module hinges off the slab track, but rests freely on the ballast. The bending resistance of module reduces towards the free end. The performance of this transition, when transitioning from slab to ballasted track, is investigated using a finite element model consisting of solid elements around the V-Tras module and simple (beam, dashpot, spring) track representations throughout the rest of the model. For comparison, a baseline case with no V-Tras module or other transitions counter-measures is also developed. Static analysis determined the pressures at the ballast-sleeper interface in both cases. It was found that V-Tras significantly reduces ballast pressures compared to the baseline case. Static analysis was also used to determine equivalent track stiffness profiles in both cases. Finally, vehicle-track interaction software was used to investigate the wheel-rail contact forces. Transiting from a very soft fastening on slab track to a stiff fastening on ballasted track introduces a high stiffness gradient when no counter measures are in place. The V-Tras system was found to increase this stiffness gradient slightly, but increase contact forces only marginally. However, further step changes in stiffness were introduced by ‘zoning’ the USP stiffness along the V-Tras length. This has the beneficial effect of reducing the peak stiffness gradient.

The Hockey Hall of Fame has announced that the Class of 2012 will include Pavel Bure, Joe Sakic, Mats Sundin… and new head coach Adam Oates, having one of the best days ever.
Oates has been eligible for the HOF since 2007 but has been passed over – some would say inexplicably – for Hall of Fame induction despite being 16th all-time in points and one of just eleven players to ever compile at least 1000 assists over the course of his career. He never won a Stanley Cup (and in fact has accumulated more points than any other player without winning one) but was a three time all-star and led the League in assists in three different seasons, including two while with the Caps, the oldest player to lead in that category for two straight years.
His career spanned twenty seasons and seven teams, with stops in Detroit, St. Louis, Boston, Philadelphia, Anaheim, Edmonton and of course Washington. He retired in 2004 and has since served as an assistant coach in both Tampa Bay and most recently the New Jersey Devils.
Congratulations to Adam Oates – make that Coach Oates – on a well-deserved honor. Here’s hoping his wave of good fortune extends to many winning seasons behind the Caps’ bench.


When asked on BBC Newsnight whether he thought the UK was headed for an autumn lockdown, Conservative MP Andrew Murrison thought the possibility was very real.
He said: “I’m worried about that possibility that’s for sure because if we hit the revised date of July 19 and we’re not looking as if we’re coming out of this step four, we have to ask the question ‘if not now then when?’.
“If it goes on, we’re looking at the autumn and the winter.
“We know that respiratory viruses like the autumn and winter months and there’s likely to be an uptick in the instance of those conditions then.
“We can then look forward to the spring, it could be spring before we’re out of step four.”
During Monday’s announcement, the Prime Minister said Covid cases were growing by up to 60 percent every week and doubling in some of the worst affected areas.
Mr Johnson added the number of people in intensive care is also rising.
Step four of the Prime Minister’s roadmap out of lockdown is now set to come to an end in four weeks’ time but he promised to hold a review point in two weeks meaning restrictions could be lifted earlier if all goes well.
Mr Johnson said the delay in reopening will “give the NHS a few more crucial weeks to get those remaining jabs into the arms of those who need them.”
He added: “That data I suspect is going to emerge in the coming days and I was reassured to hear that there would be a review point at two weeks.
“I think at that point we might be a little bit clearer about the way ahead.”

text: While Jackie Robinson was planning with the minor league Montreal Royals preparing to become the first African American in the 20th Century to play Major League baseball, Eddie Klepp became the first white player in the Negro Leagues. Klepp. a left handed pitcher, was signed by the Cleveland Buckeyes in 1946 off the sandlots of his hometown of Erie, Pennsylvania where he played semi-professional baseball with African Americans players. During spring training games in southern cities, Klepp was not allowed to play with his black teammates due to Jim Crow segregation laws. However, his Negro American League debut was on May 29, 1946 against the Chicago American Giants in Grand Rapids, Michigan giving up one run in a relief appearance. Klepp was released after his next outing when he gave up the leading runs against the Indianapolis Clowns. Years later, former Buckeye Manager Quincy Trouppe said Klepp was released because he did not have the pitching skills to get hitters out consistently.

Interest building in Tosa: CRE Guide - Community Spotlight
- Kathy Bergstrom, Special to The Business Journal
With groundbreakings imminent for projects such as the Mayfair Collection and the 25,000-square-foot technology accelerator at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Innovation Park and an announcement that Nordstrom will build a store at Mayfair Mall, a lot is happening in Wauwatosa.
In addition, Zilber Property Group has proposed building a 95,000-square-foot office building at Innovation Park, with ABB Ltd. as the main tenant. The city has discussed housing options on a parcel in the park that includes the historic Eschweiler buildings with developer Mandel Group, but a formal proposal has not been submitted.
The 250,000-square-foot first phase of the Mayfair Collection, at West Burleigh Street and Highway 45, has signed tenants including Dick’s Sporting Goods, Nordstrom Rack and Ulta. Meijer is proposing to build a 157,000-square-foot store near the development.
Froedtert Hospital also plans to build a 480,000-square-foot addition for its heart and vascular and transplant centers at its Wauwatosa campus.
“I think we went through a terrible recession where dollars dried up for developers to do much of anything,” said Mayor Kathy Ehley.
The recent activity shows that investors are “feeling more confident to get behind projects like this,” she said. “I think it’s a good sign for the economy.”
Ehley answered questions from The Business Journal about new commercial developments in Wauwatosa and other development related issues.
Q: What projects have been proposed or approved at Innovation Park?
A: “It’s really an exciting vision that (UWM) is coming up with and working with the city. We work very closely with them. What’s been approved is the roadway and the accelerator building. The accelerator building is a university building, but it is a property taxed parcel. That’s been approved and the groundbreaking should be in the next few weeks. We’re almost finished with the approval process, if things go well, for the Zilber project. As soon as that final approval is done, they’ll be breaking ground hopefully in early April. So there’s a lot going on right there.

Drivers lose their ability to control a vehicle when distracted
Years ago, drivers had a handful of distractions when they were behind the wheel. They included talking to passengers, eating and drinking, grooming, reading a map, using a CB and adjusting a radio. Now, mobile phones, texting, programming navigation systems, checking onboard computers, watching videos and adjusting the CD or MP3 player are also on the list.
Many drivers figure they can manage these small distractions. But think about it: While using a mobile device behind the wheel, have you ever passed your exit, or slammed on the brakes because the vehicle in front of you unexpectedly slowed down? Have you run a stop sign or red light during an intense phone conversation?
The human brain has impressive processing power that allows us to perceive what is happening around us, focus on what we are doing and respond to change, but that power has limits, according to behavioral researchers at Vanderbilt University. Studies show that attempting more than one task interferes with our ability to process information, even for performing basic actions we consider second nature. Try to juggle too many thoughts and actions at once and your brain gets overloaded to the point of inefficiency. Researchers say a condition called inattention blindness may result, when you fail to perceive even major things going on right in front of your eyes. When it comes right down to it, multitasking means that you’re just doing a lot of things poorly.
Keep your mind on the road
When one of those tasks involves controlling a multi-ton vehicle moving at a fast pace alongside other moving vehicles, there’s reason for concern. Every day in the U.S., more than nine people are killed and more than 1,060 people are injured in crashes that involve a distracted driver, reports the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).
A U.S. DOT study found that lapses in driver attention contribute to up to 90 percent of traffic crashes. Research conducted by the NHTSA and the Virginia Tech Transportation Institute showed that 80 percent of crashes and 65 percent of near-crashes involve some form of driver distraction within three seconds of the incident.
We tend to think of a driver taking their eyes off the road or their hands off the wheel when discussing distraction. But research shows that taking your mind off of driving is often just as dangerous.
Hands-free is not risk-free
Many drivers have switched to hands-free devices as a safety measure, but that also presents problems. A recent study by AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety measured brain activity and assessed indicators of driving performance. This research examined the mind of the driver and the mental distractions caused by a variety of tasks that may be performed behind the wheel.
The findings showed that certain activities — such as talking on a hands-free cellphone or interacting with a speech-to-text email system — place a high cognitive burden on drivers, reducing the available mental resources that should be dedicated to driving. The researchers found that reaction time slows and brain function is compromised as mental workload and distractions increase. Drivers check the road less and miss cues that can result in not seeing things right in front of them, such as stop signs and pedestrians.
By demonstrating that mentally distracted drivers miss visual cues, have slower reaction times and even exhibit a sort of tunnel vision, the study provides some of the strongest evidence yet that hands-free doesn’t mean risk-free.
It is my contention that because driving becomes “normal” to us, we forget just how complex a task it is. Moreover, we don’t realize that we can only pay attention to so many things at the same time.
I suggest that unless there is an emergency, we pull over to make a phone call, text, check emails, read the navigation system and so on. Crazy, you say? It really wasn’t all that long ago that we had to stop to make a phone call. The challenge then was to find a pay phone.

How the Two phase Immersion Cooling Cycle Works
Two-phase Immersion cooling is a new type of cooling technology for data centers. When it comes to two-phase commercial immersion cooling, E3 is one of the few names in the industry. In a two-phase immersion-cooled system, electronic components are immersed in a bath of dielectric heat-transfer fluids, which conduct heat much better than air, water, or low-boiling-point oil (i.49°C vs. 100 °C in water) liquids boil on the surface of heat-generating components and rising steam ensures passive heat transfer. It's this simplicity that eliminates traditional cooling hardware and results in better cooling efficiency. Compared to conventional air, water or oil cooling, this passive process consumes much less energy.
This essentially means that the liquid used changes state. During this change of state, it carries heat in gaseous form to the top of the tank. A condensing coil cools the gas and it rains back into the immersion tank as a liquid to start the process over. Two-phase immersion cooling is the most promising method of all cooling solutions. The cooling energy consumption can be reduced by 95%. While air solutions have power densities between 4 and 40 kW per rack, two-phase solutions can achieve up to 250 kW per rack. Generating PUE values of 1.02-1.
03, close to the global minimum and previously only achieved with free-cooling solutions from large IT companies. The advantage over air method is that it is geographically independent, which is crucial for EC solutions. This strategy is also space-saving, taking up ten times less space than air solutions (100 kW/m2 compared to 10 kW/m2). This space saving is also enormous for EDC use. Therefore, it can adapt better than other water or dielectric liquid solutions. The coolant recirculation method is key to achieving excellent space and energy efficiency . The aim is to get the liquid to flow passively (i.e. without using electricity) by boiling and condensing using high operating temperatures (above 60 °C). During operation, electronic equipment immersed in a closed bath evaporates the liquid. The fluids vapor then rises to the top, where a heat exchanger condenses it back into the liquid phase. The heat exchanger placed inside the immersion tank circulates the water and sends it to a dry cooler where it is cooled. This part is the only source of energy consumption in this method and it is almost zero since the operating temperatures of the water and liquid are the highest among cooling solutions. Watch this video explaining why Immersion Cooling is the Future of Data Centers.
Two-Phase Immersion Cooling is the perfect solution for high-density applications like blockchain, HPC, Deep Learning, Edge Computing and Cryptocurrency mining (Bitcoin, Ethereum, Ripple, Litecoin, etc.) using any ASIC or GPU hardware.

May the die-hard Grey’s Anatomy fans in the back pipe down? Because we have to discuss Dr. Deluca, Meredith Grey’s newest suitor. Played by Giancomo Gianniotti, Deluca has been on Grey’s since season 11, when he started as a surgical intern. At this point, playing an intern on this show is like an extended audition for the show itself: You get a season (or two) to try your hand at being a Grey’s favorite. If the fans enjoy you, you get to stick around. If they don’t — or if the Rhimesian jury doesn’t rule in your favor — you’re out. Deluca, thankfully, got the former.
Andrew Deluca first arrived on Grey’s Anatomy late in the eleventh season, just as Patrick Dempsey’s time on the show came to a close. This was a key season for Grey’s: It followed Sandra Oh’s dramatic departure in season 10, and it marked the beginning of the end of Sara Ramirez’s tenure on the show. In other words, season 11 was the part when the old guard of Grey’s started passing the baton to the new. That’s why Deluca seems like the most possible new love interest for Meredith Grey (Ellen Pompeo). He entered just as Meredith Grey’s closest confidantes left the scene.
He first appeared in the episode “Time Stops,” the episode before Derek Shepherd dies. His entrance was dramatic, echoing that of Dr. Owen Hunt (Kevin McKidd). As the hospital admits patients from a tunnel collapse, Deluca emerges from one of the rescue vehicles. He was on his way to work at Grey Sloan Memorial when he saw the accident, he said, and he joined the rescue brigade.
“I’m a doctor,” he says, “actually, a surgeon.” Oh, hello there! (He was also wearing a suit at this time.) Because he looked official in his suit, the doctors assumed Deluca was an attending, not an intern. He was later outed, and this led to some gentle ostracizing from his fellow interns. Honestly, at this point, we should have known: Deluca would be one of the interns who played with the big kids.
The interns in Grey’s are sometimes more like set pieces, floating around the show just to create atmosphere. The ones who stand out are the ones who become enmeshed in the greater Grey’s cast. Once upon a time, Jo Wilson (Camilla Luddington) was just an intern. Then, she fell in love with Alex Karev (Justin Chambers), one of the few characters who has been on the show since day one. Because of her turbulent relationship with Alex, Jo stuck around; she’s officially an attending doctor at Grey Sloan now, right alongside her husband Dr. Karev.
Deluca quickly became friends with Arizona Robbins (Jessica Capshaw, otherwise known as Steven Spielberg’s stepdaughter), and he moved in with her, officially joining the ranks of Interns Who Infiltrated The Attendings.
In the seasons between his entry (really the tail end of season 11) and now, Deluca has been a mildly interesting set piece. He dallied with Meredith’s sister Maggie (Kelly McCreary) briefly, but he ended things after he decided he wanted to keep things professional. (When have any characters on this show ever wanted to keep things professional?) Then, his ex-flame Sam Bello (Jeanine Mason, soon to appear on The CW’s Roswell) arrived at the hospital, and he backslid into a relationship because, well, Grey’s likes to keep things messy.
Deluca’s reputation is this: He’s passionate, handsome, and a bit of an idiot. In the season 14 finale, he drunkenly took the stage at Jo’s wedding, where he rambled about his heart being torn apart, a reference to his broken relationship with Sam. And who stepped in to save the day? Why, Meredith Grey, the person who eventually plays mom to everyone on this show.
“Andrew, I know we don’t know each other well,” she told him. “But I do know how much it sucks to lose the person you love. And I know that Sam wouldn’t want you spending your time drowning in pain.”
Deluca then kisses her. Meredith waves the kiss away, but she does tell him that she was “flattered” by it.
Now, the season 15 promo contained a misleading clip of Meredith kissing Deluca in bed — this ended up being a part of Meredith’s imagination. This doesn’t mean they won’t eventually end up in bed together for real. It just means, for now, Deluca is a fantasy, someone the show is toying with promoting from series regular to Meredith Grey’s Love Interest.
After all, this is what showrunner Krista Vernoff said about Meredith’s potential love interest:
Complicated enough to add a churlish Dr. Deluca to the mix? Only Vernoff knows, and, knowing Grey’s, the truth will be shocking, funny, and accompanied by a soft acoustic cover.


Google Inc, the technology giant that has started to exert itself as a future contender on the upcoming driverless car market believes that putting an autonomous vehicle on the streets would be viable in just half a decade.
When it comes to the US – initially the primary market for such technologically advanced machineries, the technology company says that weather conditions might affect the deployment of such vehicles. Mainly, Google wants to skimp on offering its future self-driving car in areas where snowfalls are common, according to Chris Urmson, director of Google’s self-driving car program. Speaking in Detroit during the annual Automotive News World Congress conference, an event featured in conjunction with the 2015 edition of the North American International Auto Show, Urmson added that the company believes the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration won’t impede the development of such projects.
Urmson added that Google’s own outlook for the introduction of a fully driverless car on public roads is of around five years and according to an agency spokesperson, the NHTSA “will have the appropriate policies and regulations in place to ensure the safety of these types of vehicles.” Google and numerous automakers are in conjunction with government regulators as they seek to introduce safer and more efficient mobility. The Mountain View, California-based company’s vision for now includes a pilot program in its home state that would employ around 100 cars very similar to the egg-shaped prototypes showed already. The cars lacked a steering wheel or pedals, offered seating for two and had a top speed of 25 miles (40 kilometers) per hour.

It is sooooo difficult to write a good pop song. It’s actually incredibly difficult. It’s easier to write a mournful ballad, in my opinion. It was at that point that I think I lost all of my musical inhibitions and decided that if it makes me dance or sing along then I love it and I don’t care what it is."

My comrade Jeremy Corbyn won the Labour leadership by a landslide – and was immediately faced with an avalanche of sour grapes and smears by his enemies both outside and inside our party.
Jeremy, they ranted, was a “fantasist” because of his plans to end austerity by taxing the rich who got richer during the recession, his opposition to the latest Tory attack on trade union and workplace rights, and his campaign to promote peace.
So far, so predictable – the Tory-driven media was always going to gun for him because his agenda threatens the powerful and the self-interested.
The real fantasists are outside Jeremy’s camp.
It is fantasy for Chancellor George Osborne to claim he has the interests of working people at heart after a string of Budgets which gave tax breaks to the best off, while encouraging zero hours contracts for the worse paid.
It is fantasy to expect working people to give up hard-won rights, while bankers and fat cats responsible for the slump get off scot-free.
And it is fantasy for many of my Labour colleagues to argue that we can only beat the Tories by pursuing a watered-down Conservatism – the May general election showed what the electorate thought of that.
People are crying out for sincere commitment and integrity after years of spin and PR. They want someone who means what he says.
Now they’ve got one.

Evaluate the Evidence to Examine Cancer Effects
This section describes the evaluation for examining cancer effects. This process will help you determine whether cancer effects could be possible at your site for contaminants based on your estimated site-specific cancer risks, as well as for known or suspected carcinogens with no available cancer potency factors (also called cancer risk values) to calculate cancer risks.
ATSDR uses cancer potency factors, also referred to as cancer risk values (i.e., CSFs and IURs), developed by the EPA (see EPA’s Guidelines for Carcinogen Risk Assessmentexternal icon) and, in general, uses EPA’s quantitative approach for estimating a theoretical risk of cancer in an exposed population. Health assessors will use PHAST to calculate cancer risk for both oral and inhalation exposures. For oral exposures, as shown and discussed in the EPCs and Exposure Calculations section, an EPA oral CSF, expressed as risk per mg chemical per kg body weight per day (mg/kg/day), is multiplied by site-specific dose estimates and includes an exposure factor when exposures are less than a lifetime. For inhalation exposures, IUR, expressed as risk per µg/cubic meter, is multiplied by the chemical concentration in the air, again including an exposure factor for less than lifetime exposures. EPA’s Guidelines for Carcinogen Risk Assessmentexternal icon and EPA’s Integrated Risk Information System (IRIS)external icon provide information and describe the methods used to develop these CSFs and IURs for each carcinogen.
ATSDR calculates the cancer risk for children separately from the cancer risk for adults. When childhood exposure continues into adulthood or if exposure occurs for a lifetime, ATSDR combines the cancer risks for children and adults.
For children exposed to mutagenic carcinogens, ATSDR uses EPA’s age-dependent adjustment factors (ADAFs) for early life exposure (discussed in EPA’s Supplemental Guidance for Assessing Susceptibility from Early-Life Exposure to Carcinogens pdf icon[PDF – 1,815 KB]external icon). This approach, as demonstrated in the EPCs and Exposure Calculations section, captures the additional cancer risk that results from early exposure to chemicals with a mutagenic mode of action (MOA).
Unless directly stated, ATSDR cancer risk estimates for exposure to environmental contaminants do not include the existing background cancer rate in the U.S. population. However, including information about background risk provides perspective on the chemical exposure risk. U.S. cancer incidence rates are available from the CDC’s United States Cancer Statistics and the American Cancer Society’s Cancer Statistics Centerexternal icon.
After calculating the cancer risk, health assessors will need to discuss the types of cancer that might be possible. Health assessors should keep in mind that some cancers might be route specific. This process is aimed at weighing the available evidence—in light of uncertainties—and offering perspective on the plausibility of cancer outcomes under site-specific exposure conditions. Use professional judgment when deciding risk for cancer effects, and ask for toxicological assistance to help with these types of evaluations.
Health assessors should not do the following:
- Conduct a comparison between the cancer effect level (CEL; the lowest dose level observed to produce a significant increase in the incidence of cancer or tumors) and site exposure dose to assess cancer effects.
- This is because cancer risk is a linear response without a threshold and very low doses can still cause an increased risk of cancer.
- One exception to this rule is oral exposure to chloroform where EPA has stated that cytotoxicity is necessary before chloroform will cause cancer from ingestion. EPA has stated that their RfD can be considered protective against cancer from oral exposure. More information about chloroform and cancer is available in IRISexternal icon.
- Use a CEL to make a health hazard conclusion.
- This is because you need to know the numerical cancer risk to decide whether exposure could cause a significant cancer risk.
A health assessor might look at the CEL if the risk is very high. The purpose would be to see if the site-specific dose or concentration is at cancer effect levels. When site doses approach or exceed the CEL reported in the Toxicological Profile, you can place greater emphasis on the cancer risk estimate.
When communicating the potential for cancer hazards, be sure to state how strongly associated a contaminant is with cancer outcomes. Using plain language, include the cancer classifications in your evaluation (see PHAST for agency-specific classifications) to qualitatively describe the cancer-causing potential of a particular contaminant. ATSDR’s preference is to use the plain text explanations for the different classification categories instead of using an agency’s alphanumeric designation or abbreviation.
However, for some sites, you may encounter potential contaminants of concern that are suspected or known carcinogens, but they do not have oral CSFs or IURs. In these cases, health assessors need to indicate in their documents that quantitative risk estimates are not possible and provide some context as noted below.
- Include information on how you identified the contaminant as a carcinogen (e.g., NTP, EPA, or IARC cancer classification).
- Include highlights from studies supporting the contaminant being a carcinogen, if warranted.
- Indicate what is known in a qualitative way. Provide a paragraph that explains why EPA has not developed CSFs or IURs based on available data (if known), clearly states uncertainty, and includes other relevant information.
- Consult with a toxicologist if there is information on human or animal exposure doses that caused cancer to see if it is appropriate to compare them to site-specific doses.
Important: This example is for training purposes only. ATSDR, EPA, and other agencies periodically update their values. Always use the most current values and supporting information in your evaluation.
Let’s revisit the drinking water ingestion example for which you calculated CRs for a mutagenic carcinogen in the EPCs and Exposure Calculations Evaluation. In that example, a family was exposed in their home to contaminated drinking water daily, for an unknown number of years. The water has an EPC of 0.00015 mg/L for 1,2,3-trichloropropane. You do not know the number of residents of the home or their ages.
Because you did not have specific information on the residents, PHAST was run using default exposure groups, which incorporates default body weights and default intake rates, to generate exposure doses. PHAST calculates the CRs for this scenario using the ADAF-adjusted cancer risk formula [i.e., (exposure dose) x (age-specific exposure duration/78 years) x (ADAF)] as shown in the table below. Note that this section discusses CRs generated in PHAST for this specific example. For a discussion on example HQs, refer to the Evaluate the Evidence to Examine Non-Cancer Effects section.
Based on this example scenario, ATSDR would further evaluate the potential for cancer effects because either of the CTE and RME CRs, or both, are greater than 1E-6. Always use professional judgment and consider site-specific scenarios to determine whether evaluating CTE and RME is appropriate.
As shown in the table’s footnotes above, PHAST calculated the CRs using EPA’s oral CSF of 30 (mg/kg/day)-1. You can find EPA’s documentation related to developing this cancer risk value (i.e., the CSF) in its IRIS Databaseexternal icon.
The table below is a guide for the types of information you might want to gather during the evaluation for cancer, using 1,2,3-trichloropropane as an example. To populate the table for this example exposure scenario for cancer effects, you would use ATSDR’s Toxicological Profile for 1,2,3-Trichloropropane pdf icon[PDF – 2.4 MB]. You could also refer to the CVs and Health Guidelines Module in PHAST (for the cancer classifications).

ATSDR uses the cancer classification systems for evaluating contaminant-specific carcinogenicity established by the following agencies: the NTP, the EPA, and the IARC. These agencies classify carcinogens based on the strength of the scientific evidence linking the contaminant with cancer outcomes under the reported conditions of testing. Use these classifications in any discussion of carcinogens. ATSDR may also consider occupational carcinogen classifications by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH), if relevant to the exposure scenario being evaluated.
See PHAST’s Health Guidelines and Cancer Risk table (in the PHAST CVs & Health Guidelines Module) for the most current cancer classification information.
- NTP completes a hazard assessment of each chemical it evaluates. The hazard assessment examines relevant information on dose response, route of exposure, chemical structure, metabolism, toxicokinetics, sensitive subpopulations, genetic effects, or other data that relate to mode of action or factors that may be unique to a given chemical. Based on a careful review and integration of the body of evidence, NTP classifies the chemical using two cancer classification categories: Known to be a Human Carcinogen and Reasonably Anticipated to be a Human Carcinogen. NTP publishes the findings of its research in its Report on Carcinogens (RoC)external icon.
- EPA develops a narrative describing the potential for a chemical’s carcinogenicity, weighing the available evidence and considering any limitations based on dose-rate or dependence on mode of action. EPA emphasizes understanding the mechanism by which a chemical causes cancer to determine whether the mode of action is relevant to humans. This understanding is based on animal findings, risks to sensitive populations or life stages (for which the EPA has issued supplemental guidance), and evaluation of risk assessment options. EPA adopted cancer guidelines in 1986:
- Group A: Carcinogenic to humans
- Group B: Probably carcinogenic to humans (includes B1 and B2)
- Group C: Possibly carcinogenic to humans
- Group D: Not classifiable as to human carcinogenicity
- Group E: Evidence of non-carcinogenicity for humans
EPA revised its guidelines in 2005 but did not reclassify all the chemicals classified under the 1986 EPA guidelines, so it still uses both classification systems. The 2005 classifications are as follows:
- Carcinogenic to humans
- Likely to be carcinogenic to humans
- Suggestive evidence of carcinogenic potential
- Inadequate information to assess carcinogenic potential
- Not likely to be carcinogenic to humans
- IARC considers three types of data when evaluating the evidence of chemical carcinogenicity: animal, human, and mechanistic. IARC’s Working Group of expert scientists classifies the animal or human evidence as strong, sufficient, limited, or inadequate. IARC bases its initial categorization on the combined level of evidence from the animal or human data. Strong mechanistic data can provide evidence for raising or lowering the initial category. IARC produces Monographs on the Evaluation of Carcinogenic Risks to Humansexternal icon, which serve as the basis for IARC cancer classifications:
- Group 1: Carcinogenic to humans
- Group 2A: Probably carcinogenic to humans
- Group 2B: Possibly carcinogenic to humans
- Group 3: Not classifiable as to carcinogenicity to humans
- Group 4: Probably not carcinogenic to humans
- NIOSH determines whether a chemical is an occupational carcinogen by using one of the following three methods:
- Evaluation of chemical carcinogen hazard assessments developed by the
- NTP (“Known to be human carcinogen” or “Reasonably anticipated to be a human carcinogen”)
- EPA (“Carcinogenic to humans,” “likely to be carcinogenic to humans,” “suggestive evidence of carcinogenic potential,” Group A, Group B1, Group B2, or Group C)
- IARC (“Group 1,” “Group 2A,” or “Group 2B”)
- Nomination by NIOSH for classification by NTP
- Classification by NIOSH (described below)
- Evaluation of chemical carcinogen hazard assessments developed by the
NIOSH may perform its own chemical hazard assessment to determine if the chemical should be classified as an occupational carcinogen when the institute has determined that the chemical has the potential for worker exposure and (1) no prior carcinogen classification by NTP, EPA, or IARC has been published or (2) information in the occupational relevance evaluation indicates the need for reconsideration of the evidence underlying a published chemical carcinogen assessment. When developing a new chemical carcinogen classification, NIOSH will use the criteria for carcinogenicity contained in the United Nations’ Globally Harmonized System for Classification and Labelling of Chemicals pdf icon[PDF – 3.1 MB]external icon (GHS), as included in the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Hazard Communication Standard (29 CFR §1910.1200external icon), and any interpretation of the GHS criteria issued by OSHA. Per NIOSH’s Chemical Carcinogen Policy pdf icon[PDF – 2.3 MB], if NIOSH determines that the evidence for a chemical corresponds to GHS class 1A, 1B, or 2, and the chemical is occupationally relevant, then the institute will designate the substance an “occupational carcinogen.” (In PHAST, these are labeled with an “OC” designation.)
In general, these agencies draw similar conclusions about carcinogenicity (i.e., their assessment of literature reviews reaches similar conclusions). If the agencies classify a chemical differently, ATSDR usually gives preference to NTP’s classification. However, ATSDR will also consider supporting information that these agencies used to reach their conclusion, particularly if their classifications are based on newer science. Differences between agency classifications may be the result of a more recent literature review and new science or selection of different key studies as the basis for the cancer class designation.
When discussing a chemical’s carcinogenicity, use the plain text explanations for the different classification categories instead of using an agency’s alphanumeric designation or abbreviation. For example, the NTP uses these plain language phrases:
- Known to be a human carcinogen
- Reasonably anticipated to be a human carcinogen
Thus, for a well-documented human carcinogen, the text might read “The National Toxicology Program within the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services has determined that arsenic is known to be a human carcinogen because sufficient evidence exists of carcinogenicity from human studies.” Other examples using plain language phrases are “Human studies clearly link the contaminant of interest with certain cancers” or “While some animal studies have shown increased tumors after exposure to the contaminant of interest, human data do not suggest a link between the contaminant and cancer in humans.”
ATSDR evaluates the relevance of animal data to humans on a case-by-case basis. Without compelling data to the contrary, however, a contaminant that has been shown to cause cancer in animals is considered carcinogenic in humans.
Describing Cancer Risk
In public health documents, ATSDR presents cancer results quantitatively, as a theoretical risk, and qualitatively (see table below). The quantitative results describe the cancer risk numerically, such as three extra cancer cases for every 100,000 similarly exposed persons (3 x 10-5). These theoretical risk estimates are calculated assuming people have the same exposures (e.g., the same soil concentration, soil ingestion rate, specified duration), and do not represent individual cancer risks or account for variation in exposure in people living around a site. For example, a health assessor may use the following type of statement to convey this in a document: Given the conservative nature of the cancer risk evaluation for pentachlorophenol, this cancer risk is not a concern. Note that this is a theoretical estimate of cancer risk that ATSDR uses as a tool for deciding whether public health actions are needed to protect health—it is not an actual estimate of cancer cases in a community.
The objective of the cancer risk estimate (quantitative) and hazard (qualitative) evaluation is to draw conclusions and make recommendations that will protect the public. This table below shows possible recommendations ATSDR may develop for each of the different cancer risk ranges. ATSDR makes recommendations to appropriate parties (e.g., federal, state, and local agencies; community members; tribal governments), which usually focus on these types of primary actions:
- Requesting appropriate parties take steps to stop or reduce the public’s exposure to environmental contaminants
- Educating healthcare professionals about environmental contamination in their communities, including cancer-causing contaminants
- Educating the public about actions which reduce or stop exposures
If state policies are more conservative than the qualitative descriptors in this table below, ATSDR may consider those state policies when summarizing cancer risk. For example, some states are required to designate cancer risks greater than 1 in 1,000,000 (1 x 10-6) as a health concern, while other states may designate 1 in 100,000 (1 x 10-5) as a concern.
ATSDR does not have an acceptable cancer risk range. Therefore, health assessors should do the following:
Health assessors may see theoretical cancer risks written in different ways. For example, the same numerical risk of 1 in 1,000,000 might be written as 1 x 10-6 or as 1E-6.
- Avoid using phrases such as “the estimated cancer risk at this site of two in 100,000 similarly exposed persons is within the acceptable cancer risk range.”
- Avoid stating that the estimated cancer risk is within EPA’s acceptable cancer risk range of 1E-4 to 1E-6. EPA uses this cancer risk range to decide remedial clean-up actions at Superfund sites. ATSDR should not use this range as justification for what is acceptable or not acceptable nor should we report it in our documents.
- Review the following table that describes cancer risk ranges, qualitative descriptors, and possible recommendations.
Theoretical Risk Range
|≤ 1 in 1,000,000 persons similarly exposed
|No concern for increased cancer risk
|> 1E-6 to
|> 1 in 1,000,000 to
< 1 in 10,000 persons similarly exposed
|No concern for increased cancer risk*
A concern for increased cancer risk*
|If you conclude that there is no concern for increased cancer risk, there are usually no recommendations. However, you could consider public education in ways to reduce exposure or continued monitoring, particularly if the contaminant could migrate and persons could be exposed to higher levels.
If you conclude that there is a concern for increased cancer risk, consider the recommendations below.
|≥ 1 in 10,000 persons exposed
|A concern for increased cancer risk
|Recommendations that you could consider:
*Depends upon your evaluation and whether you decide there is either a concern or not a concern for an increased cancer risk.
This list below presents some issues to consider when deciding whether cancer risks between 1E-6 and 1E-4 are either a concern or not a concern:
- Is the carcinogen a known human carcinogen?
- Are their temporal trends in the data that make you more or less concerned about the calculated cancer risk?
- Are sensitive populations being exposed who might already have an elevated cancer risk?
- Are children exposed early in life, particularly if that exposure involves mutagenic carcinogens?
- Are there data limitations that increase uncertainty (e.g., limited data requiring the use of a maximum concentration as the EPC)?
- Are people exposed to multiple carcinogens as a mixture?
- Is there evidence of a threshold for a specific carcinogen?
- How much does natural background contribute to cancer risk?
- How much does anthropogenic background contribute to cancer risk?
- Are reliable health outcome data (HOD) on cancer rates available for the exposed population?
Before putting the recommended actions for appropriate parties in your site documents, have discussions with these parties to get their input and hopefully their agreement with the recommendations. You may be able to work with these groups on the specific phrasing of recommendations so that they agree to them, making the recommended actions more likely to be done. Identify the agencies for whom the recommendations are intended (e.g., ATSDR, a state environmental agency). And finally, include a discussion about uncertainty in cancer risk estimates along with the quantitative and qualitative description of cancer risk.

Japanese Mythology: Izanami and Izanagi
Every Japanese emperor and empress in the long line of familial succession can trace their ancestry and divine right to rule directly to the deities that, according to Japanese mythology, formed the islands of Japan from the murky darkness of the earth below the heavens. This ancestral lineage and the myths and legends that surround it created a strong foundation for Japanese culture and Shintoism in Japan.
- Izanami and Izanagi are the male and female Japanese deities tasked with creating the islands of Japan.
- Izanami was killed during childbirth; the deities of the sun, moon, and storms were born from the body of Izanagi.
- The sun goddess, Amaterasu, sent her son to Japan to rule the people; she gave him a sword, a jewel, and a mirror to prove his divine ancestry.
- Every emperor of Japan can trace his ancestry back to this first emperor.
The Creation Story: They Who Invite
Before the formation of the heavens and the world, only dark chaos existed, with particles of light floating throughout the darkness. As time passed, the particles of light rose to the top of the darkness, and the combined particles formed Takamagahara, or the Plain of High Heaven. The remaining darkness and chaos below combined to form a mass, what would later become Earth.
When Takamagahara was formed, Japan’s first three deities or kami appeared. From a shoot of reeds, two more gods appeared, followed by two more gods. These seven kami then birthed five subsequent generations of deities, each with a male and female, a brother and sister. The eighth generation of these deities was a male, Izanagi, meaning “He Who Invites”, and a female, Izanami, meaning She Who Invites”.
After their birth, Izanagi and Izanami were tasked by the older kami to bring shape and structure to the chaos of floating darkness. They were given a jeweled spear to help them with their task, which they would use to churn up the darkness and create the seas. Once the spear was lifted from the darkness, the water that dripped from the end of the spear formed the first island of Japan, where Izanami and Izanagi made their home.
The pair decided to marry and procreate in order to form the final islands and the deities that would inhabit the new land. They married by crossing behind a sacred pillar. Once behind the pillar, Izanami exclaimed, “What a fine young man!” The two were married, and they consummated their marriage.
The product of their union was born deformed and without bones, and he was abandoned in a basket that Izanami and Izanagi pushed out to sea. They tried once more to produce a child but this one too was born deformed.
Devastated and confused by their inability to create a child, Izanagi and Izanami consulted the kami of previous generations for help. The kami told the pair that the reason for their misfortune was that they had not completed the marriage ritual properly; it was Izanagi, the male, who should have greeted his wife, Izanami, before she greeted him.
They returned home and completed the ritual as instructed. This time, as they met behind the pillar, Izanagi exclaimed, “What a fine young woman!”
Their union was fruitful, and they produced all of the islands of Japan and the deities that inhabited them. The pair continued to produce the deities of Japan until the birth of the deity of fire. Though the deity was born unharmed, Izanami died in childbirth.
Land of the Dead
Overcome with sorrow, Izanagi traveled to Yomi, the land of the dead, to retrieve Izanami. In the shadowy darkness, Izanagi could make out only the form of Izanami. He asked her to return to the land of the living, and she told him he was too late. She would need to ask permission to leave the land of the dead because she had already consumed the food of the shadowy land.
Izanami asked for Izanagi’s patience, telling him not to look at her in her current state. Izanagi agreed, but after a while, desperate to see his love, Izanagi lit a fire. His beloved Izanami was in a state of bodily decay, with maggots crawling through her flesh.
Overwhelmed by fear, Izanagi left his wife and ran from Yomi. Izanami sent deities to chase Izanagi, but he escaped the land of the dead and blocked the path with a large stone.
After such an ordeal, Izanagi knew that he needed to cleanse himself of the impurities of Yomi, as was ritual. While he cleansed himself, three new kami were born: From his left eye Amaterasu, the sun goddess; from his right eye, Tsuki-yomi, the moon god; and from his nose, Susanoo, the storm god.
The Jewels, the Mirror, and the Sword
Some texts indicate that there was a strong rivalry between Susanoo and Amaterasu that led to a challenge. Amaterasu won the challenge, and angry Susanoo destroyed Amaterasu’s rice paddies and chased her in a cave. Other texts suggest that Susanoo desired Amaterasu’s body, and in fear of rape, she fled into the cave. Both versions of the story, however, end with Amaterasu in a cave, a symbolic eclipse of the sun.
The kami were angry with Susanoo for eclipsing the sun. They banished him from the heavens and coaxed Amaterasu out of the cave with three gifts: jewels, a mirror, and a sword. After leaving the cave, Amaterasu was tied up to ensure she never went into hiding again.
An Emperor, Son of the Gods
After a while, Amaterasu looked down at the earth and saw Japan, which desperately needed a leader. Unable to go to the earth herself, she sent her son, Ninigi, to Japan with the sword, the jewels, and the mirror to prove he was a descendant of the gods. Ninigi’s son, called Jimmu, became the first emperor of Japan in 660 BC.
Ancestry, Divinity, and Lasting Power
The current emperor of Japan, Akihito, who succeeded his father, Hirohito, in 1989, can trace his ancestry back to Jimmu. Though the jewels, the sword, and the mirror presented to Amaterasu and passed down to Jimmu were reportedly thrown into the ocean in the 12th century, they have since been recovered, though some accounts suggest the recovered items are forgeries. The royal family is currently in possession of the items, keeping them under heavy protection at all times.
As the longest-reigning monarchy in the world, the Japanese royal family is considered to be divine and infallible. The creation story of Japan highlights the importance of rites and rituals in Japanese culture and Japanese Shinto.

The opioid epidemic that plagues our nation stems from the over-prescribing of opioid-based pain relievers, such as Oxycodone and Vicadin and an even larger increase in the dosages given without accompanying safeguards and education. In 2014, more than 200 million prescriptions for opioid-based painkillers were written. Additionally, research demonstrates that people who abuse or are dependent on prescription opioid painkillers are 40 times more likely to become addicted to heroin, which is also opioid-based.
Even with the epidemic of opioid addiction to both prescription painkillers and to heroin, their illegal street cousin, taking nearly 50,000 lives annually, prescribing practices have yet to fundamentally change. A report on the opioid epidemic from John Hopkins University School of Public Health strongly recommends tightening up prescribing practices: “Doctors often prescribe pain medications in quantities and for conditions that are excessive, and in many cases, beyond the evidence base.” According to national surveys, 85 percent of doctors themselves say that opioid based pain medications are over-prescribed. And, former US Surgeon General Vivek Murphy, in urging the medical profession to do more to combat the opioid epidemic, called doctors, nurses and other healthcare providers, “the first line of defense in the battle against addiction.”
A recent national survey done by the Hazeldon Betty Ford Foundation confirms what too many patients and parents have learned the hard way,: currently, six-in-ten doctors prescribe opioid painkillers without informing patients of their addictive qualities. This is because with the exception of New Jersey and Rhode Island these conversations are not required and most doctors and other health professionals receive little or no training in how to appropriately prescribe and dispense the medicine to minimize the possibility of addiction or use by family and friends.
