IACM-Bulletin of June 9, 2019
Illinois will become the latest state in the USA to legalize cannabis, as legislators passed a bill making cannabis use for adults the legal. The Land of Lincoln is on the verge of becoming the 11th state in the nation to legalize recreational cannabis. Governor J.B. Pritzker, who campaigned in support of legalization, is expected to promptly sign the bill.
The state senate passed the measure, House Bill 1438, by 38-17, giving the lower house until the end of Friday, May 31, to pass. Representatives took full advantage of their time, finally passing the measure 66-47. The debate lasted more than three hours, during which legislators went into great detail defending their respective votes.
The federal government is earmarking nearly 25 million dollars toward cannabis research projects across the country. Bill Blair, the minister responsible for the Cannabis Act, made the announcement in Calgary on 22 May. “These projects will seek to further generate the knowledge needed to develop evidenced-based policies and regulations around cannabis use,” he said.
Part of the money will be used to fund three research projects at the University of Calgary. One Calgary study will look at cannabinoid hyperemesis syndrome, which sees regular, long-term users develop a sudden intolerance to the drug, another will look to develop cannabis education and harm-reduction messaging for youth, and the third will look at using cannabis as a way of treating migraines. Part of the money will also be used to educate youth about safe consumption practises.
Cannabis use in obese people is associated with lower fasting insulin levels in blood and lower insulin resistance. Researchers of the Faculty of Pharmacy of Laval University and the Public Health Institute of Québec, Canada, analysed data of 129,509 adults aged 18 to 59 years.
In current obese consumers, the mean insulin in those with less than 4 uses per month months was 52% lower than in never users. Former obese consumers with 8 or more uses per month and who stopped cannabis use within less than 12 months showed 47% lower insulin. Authors wrote that cannabis use “is associated with lower fasting insulin and HOMA-IR in obese but not in non-obese adults, even low frequency of < 4 uses per month.” Even former use showed an effect. The homeostatic model assessment (HOMA) is a method used to quantify insulin resistance and function of beta cells, which produce insulin in the pancreas.
🏷 Science/Human — Cannabis users with personality disorders are not at increased risk for developing other psychiatric disorders
Findings of an international study “suggest that aside from specific substance use disorders, individuals with PDs are not at an increased risk for developing other psychiatric disorders following cannabis use.” Scientists from Lev-Hasharon Mental Health Center in Pardesiya, Israel, and other institutions from Israel, Canada and Germany analysed data from 34,653 individuals with PD (personality disorders), who were followed for 3 years.
Authors wrote that cannabis users “were at increased odds for developing substance use disorders (including opioid use disorder), but not other comorbid psychiatric disorders, at 3-year follow up. No significant interaction effects were generally found between cannabis use and PD. These findings suggest that aside from specific substance use disorders, individuals with PDs are not at an increased risk for developing other psychiatric disorders following cannabis use.”

The Dutch government is planning to issue a second licence for the production of medicinal cannabis to meet growing demand patients. The only company authorised to produce cannabis for medical use, Bedrocan in Emmeloord, has increased its output fivefold in the last five years to 2,604 kilograms.
The government fleshed out regulatory details for the production, distribution and possession of cannabis, months after the longstanding narcotics law was amended to allow the production and possession of cannabis for medical purposes. These conditions include the possibility to export cannabis and foreign travellers within Thailand to have access to medical cannabis
Zimbabwe has approved the first project for the farming and processing of cannabis, a development that is set to earn the country billions in foreign currency.

ABUJA-Respite is underway for citizen Yunusa Owolabi who is being held by International Police, INTERPOL of Moroccan government on account of controversial criminal charges preferred against him by Nigerian branch of the service.
The family had on July 29, 2019 petitioned Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, drawing his attention to Owolabi’s plights in Morocco, pleading for his intervention.
The petition signed by Mr. Farouk Oshipitan on behalf of Owolabi’s family said that he’s being held unjustly by Moroccan authorities.
The petition stated that Owolabi, a shipping and forwarding agent was arrested in Casablanca in June last year on his way back from the United Kingdom to Nigeria following placement of red alert on him by the Nigerian police on the account of charges that had since been found untenable by High Court of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Abuja.
Stating however that the red alert had been removed by the orders of the court which also made the Casablanca authorities to release Owolabi from their prisons, the family stated that the worry now has been the refusal of the Central Authority Unit, CAU, in the Federal Ministry of Justice to write to the Moroccan government to release Owolabi’s travel documents as ordered by a Federal High Court in Abuja.
Owolabi travails, the petition further explained, started in 2016 when a fellow Nigerian in the UK contracted him to ship a generator to Nigeria.
Hardly had he gone for the generator than he was told the item had been stolen within the premises of the selling company.
The parties thereafter filed a formal complaint with the UK police authorities.
Owolabi however got arrested in Lagos by his client when he returned home to encourage the businessman to travel back to the UK to pursue his claims to logical conclusions.
From Surulere police station to Interpol, Agbabon office where he was detained for three days, he was eventually taken to Abuja where many court cases later followed.
In the petition to Osinbajo, the family made a few prayers amongst which were “That Yinusa Owolabi be freed; That the Police Interpol department be investigated as our son, Yinusa Owolabi, is of the observation that he is a prey for fraudulent insurance claims in Britain, and this may be behind his travails. [Letter from his counsel in UK addressed to Benjamin Olowodola dated 12th October 2016 is hereto attached.
By this letter attached, Mr Benjamin Olowodola is also wanted in United Kingdom having sneaked out of UK immediately he lost his phantom consignment at the premises of Eagle Generator Company in UK and laid wait for his prey [Yinusa Owolabi] in Nigeria.
“That a Government delegation led by the Solicitor-General be sent to Morocco to apologise to the person of Yinusa Owolabi who has been dehumanized thoroughly and rendered penniless due to long hunt b his tormentors.
“That the Ministry of Justice should explain their reasons for turning the table against the family of Owolabi through conspiracy of silence after been assured that a mistake in interpretation was made which made a judicial review important and necessary.
5] That the office of the Vice President withdraws the file from the Justice Ministry with a view to ameliorating the conditions of things.
6] That Mr Yinusa Owolabi who is now on the streets of Casablanca in Morocco was captured by camera picking from the dustbins to have his meals be given his freedom and travel documents to reunite with his family since 2016.”
In his response to the petition, the Vice President said that directives had been given to the Inspector-General of Police and the Ministry of Justice to review the matter and act accordingly.
The letter written by the Deputy Chief of State to the President in the office of the Vice President, Ade Ipaya and dated August 2, 2019 read thus:
“Re: Monumental Injustice bon Mr. Yunusa Owolabi by the Inspector General of Police/Interpol and the Justice Ministry (Central Authority Unit)
“I am directed by His Excellency, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo , SAN, Vice President, Federal Republic of Nigeria to acknowledge receipt of your petition dated 29 July 2019 on the above stated subject and inform you that it has been forwarded to the Solicitor General of the Federation for urgent review and necessary action.”

With Esham Cartoon Nightmares Bugz On My Nutz Boogie Woogie Wu Blacken Your Eyes Bizzar Bitches Insane Clown Posse is an American hip hop duo from Detroit, Michigan.The group is composed of Joseph Bruce and Joseph Utsler, who perform under the respective personas of the “wicked clowns” Violent J and Shaggy 2 Dope.They were also unanimous in deciding not to rap openly about Satan, which Esham often did.Several names were considered before Bruce recalled his dream of a clown running around in Delray, which became the inspiration for the group's new name: Insane Clown Posse.The group decided they would all don face paint due to the success of their former clown-painted hype man.
The duo founded the independent record label Psychopathic Records with Alex Abbiss as manager, and produced and starred in the feature films Big Money Hustlas and Big Money Rustlas.
Esham wished Bruce well and Bruce gave the rapper a copy of Dog Beats; this began the friendship and professional relationship between Psychopathic Records and Esham's label, Reel Life Productions.
In late 1991, the group had the problem of having spent more money on production than was covered by returns.
While trying to get stations to play the single, Bruce learned that one of the stations he and Abbiss visited would be interviewing local rapper Esham, who Bruce considered to be a "superstar"; Bruce had recently begun to collect Esham's albums, as he had done with other local rappers; by the time he had discovered Esham, the rapper had released two full-length albums and three EPs.
Bruce met Esham for the first time at the station and praised him.
Insane Clown Posse perform a style of hardcore hip hop known as horrorcore and is known for its elaborate live performances.

So, it being Saturday, it’s time for a quiet cup of coffee with some friends. Get your cup and sit down for a few minutes.
If we were having coffee, I would tell you how happy I was to just be out of the house and having coffee with a friend. I’ve been really sick for the last two weeks. After catching the flu that was going around, I thought I was better. Then I came down with a secondary infection of every kind – sinus, ears, bronchitis, it covered all the areas.
Even a few days of steroid treatment thrown in. Oh, and then after a few days on one antibiotic, I got switched up to something more serious because the first one wasn’t working. I really don’t ever remember being this sick and exhausted and completely out of it.
I’m thankful that while my entire family got the flu, I am the only one that got beaten to a pulp. They all had 2-3 days of fever and a lingering cough, still not fun. It did give me time to collect and publish my favorite food memes though.
If we were having coffee, I would ask you if the germs have been staying away from you this winter. I certainly hope so, it was horrible.
I would tell you that my family is starting to plan our summer vacation. It seems like a good time to do it, when it is cold and miserable out, and because we were all sick, it gives us something nice to think about.
We are thinking about a road trip, to Oregon, just checking out the scenery and we want to do it in an RV, so we will rent one and just live on the road! I’m pretty excited. Think we might try to go river rafting too. Something pretty mild, we aren’t super crazy adventure types. But if any of you have any must-see places in Oregon for us, please let me know.
If we were having coffee, I would ask you if you enjoy yoga as much as I do, as I find it to be a really nice balance to the other exercise I do, I particularly like it when I am stressed, or can’t get out to run. It firms muscles and relaxes me at the same time, and loosens up all my muscles, as well. It’s the perfect exercise.
If we were having coffee, I would tell you that tomorrow is my Moms Run 5K/10K race. We are all meeting near the beach for our run. I will tell you that I have no business even walking a 5K right now after being so sick, but I did sign up for the run and I’m going to go and cheer on all my lovely lady runner friends. I’ll take some pictures and get some fresh air, it’ll be the first time in 2 weeks.
If you are reading this from my area, I hope to see you there.
Until our next coffee break.

G4S, the company at the heart of the London Olympics security debacle, said it would cut 1,100 jobs as it looks to recover £50m lost on the Games contract.
G4S dominated headlines in July after failing to provide a promised 10,400 security guards for the London Olympics, placing chief executive Nick Buckles’ job in question and forcing him to admit the company’s reputation was in tatters.
The group today posted a profit before interest, tax and amortisation for the six months to 30 June of £236m, flat on last year, with revenue up 5.8 per cent to £3.9bn.
It said it remained confident in its outlook with £3.8bn of work per year in its pipeline.
The group, which this month donated £2.5m to British military sports and welfare organisations to thank troops who guarded Olympic venues in its absence, said it had eventually provided 8,000 staff for the Games at peak times and did not expect any shortfall for the upcoming Paralympic Games.
G4S, which employs 657,000 staff in over 125 countries, said a board review of the contract failure had begun and that its findings would be made available in late September.

Hekari United FC has signed on current PNG Kapuls captain Michael Foster for its 2019-2020 NSL season.
Foster and another Solomon Island international Junior David are already in camp with the rest of the team.

She also said the club is also expecting some players from the Solomon Islands to join soon.
“For Foster to join our team is a great boost for us,” Kapi Natto said.
Foster is from the Malaita Kings FC who compete in the S-league, a top tier competition in the Solomon Islands.
His inclusion will help boost Hekari United in the NSL and their campaign in the upcoming OFC champions challenge.
According to records, Foster has played 25 times for the national team scoring six times and the 34-year-old midfielder is excited to join the Hekari camp.
According to the OFC media center, Foster is one of the most celebrated footballers of PNG history.

The charter deal with GSL 45 — a company listed as the owner of the 2,207-teu Kumasi (built 2002) — is for 3.25 years and is worth $43.5m.
Wan Hai has also agreed to charter another 2,741-teu vessel for $42.25m, also for a period of just over three years.
The vessel is taken from CV Six 45, the owner of the 2,741-teu Jeju Island (built 2006), which is managed by UK-based Borealis Maritime.
The deals show an impressive spending spree by the world's 10th largest liner operator into the sub-panamax sector.
The company has acquired 18 boxships since December 2020, according to estimates from VesselsValue.
Wan Hai has not named the latest sub-panamax boxship acquisition, although Lucretia is listed with just two vessels of this size.
These are the 2,550-teu MOL Success (built 2010) and St Ever (built 2011), which are managed by Osaka-based Santoku Senpaku.
The two ships currently operate with Japan's Ocean Network Express (ONE) and Taiwanese liner operator Evergreen.
Wan Hai has the firepower to launch a significant spending spree after securing $320m in funding to spend on secondhand acquisitions in early December.
That takes the total that Wan Hai has on hand to acquire vessels to over $520m.
The company is already behind the purchase of three 2,700-teu container vessels, which TradeWinds reported sold earlier this month in an en-bloc deal worth close to $150m.
The 2,782-teu California Trader and Carolina Trader (both built 2017) and Delaware Trader (built 2018) have been acquired from UK-based Lomar Shipping for between $48m and $49m each, according to market sources.
Wan Hai has also been linked to a $55m spend on a traditional panamax-sized boxship.
The unidentified vessel, built in 2003, is slated for delivery to Wan Hai in March or April 2022, according to UK brokers.
That is in line with the $65m that Danish giant Maersk is reportedly paying Japanese owners for the 4,506-teu Cosco Kawasaki (built 2010).


A HOMESTEAD?: This never-occupied deer camp, which has no electric, water or sewage, lies at the center of a property-tax dispute in Townshend, Vt.
By Bruce Parker | Vermont Watchdog
In Vermont, the nation’s 48th worst state for property taxes, one fed-up property owner is taking his property tax appeal to the top — and to the public as well.
Prior to this year, Tom Chase paid an annual tax of $856 for a family-built deer camp sitting on 27 acres in Townshend. After the town reappraised property values in 2013, however, Chase’s annual property tax jumped 124 percent, to $1,919.
At issue is the assessment of the family’s deer camp, a 564-square-foot structure Chase said is wrongly being classified as a homestead.
“I cannot live in it at all. It’s just a storage place. No one has ever lived in there,” Chase told Vermont Watchdog.
“We built it in 1953, and it’s just four walls and a floor and a cement cellar. It has no electricity, water or sewage — (it’s) just a deer camp, as defined by the state.”
Prior to the townwide reappraisal in 2013, Chase’s property was valued at $74,000. The new assessment spiked the value to $94,000. Although a grievance filed with the listers and the Board of Civil Authority brought the valuation down to $91,400, Chase has appealed his case to to the state Property Valuation and Review Division of the Department of Taxes.
According to Chase, the structure on his property should be assessed as a “deer camp” — an unoccupied structure listed under vacant land in the 2008 Vermont Listers Handbook.
FED-UP: Tom Chase drove his Ford F-350 1,340 miles across the Green Mountain State, visiting 19 towns, to find out his property is worth far less than what the town of Townshend claims.
“Because I had the building, the listers said I had two acres around the building for a homestead, which it has never been. They assessed those at like $11,000 an acre — that’s $22,000 right there,” Chase said.
Among states, Vermont ranks near the bottom when it comes to taxes. The Tax Foundation’s 2014 edition of the State Business Tax Climate Index ranks Vermont as 48 out of 50 states in property tax affordability. Only New Jersey and Connecticut have a worse ranking.
Robin O’Neill, a member of the Towshend Board of Listers, acknowledged Chase’s dispute and said the board was waiting to hear back from the state’s hearing officer.
“We had a townwide reappraisal in 2013. This is the result of that. The prior value to the current one would have been from the 2007 reappraisal,” she said. “In Tom Chase’s case, and in several others, he had gone through grievance, the Board of Civil Authority and state appeal. The results of his state appeal are still pending.”
When asked for the prior valuation of Chase’s property and an explanation for the higher assessment, O’Neill initially told Vermont Watchdog she would provide that information. However, O’Neill later said the board of listers held a quorum and decided against discussing Chase’s case by phone.
Convinced his property’s fair market value was well below $91,400, Chase contacted real estate firm Barrett & Valley Associates in Springfield and obtained a list of 19 comparable sales in the state.
Comps in hand, Chase, 74, drove his Ford F-350 a total of 1,340 miles across the Green Mountain State to see what his property was really worth. Chase provided Vermont Watchdog with that list of properties by town.
COMPS DON’T LIE: A review of comparable properties sold in 19 towns across Vermont shows the fair market value of Chase’s property in West Townshend may not exceed $69,000. (Click to enlarge)
As the data indicates, comparable properties sold at an average price of about $69,000. Chase said fair market value of his property shouldn’t exceed the value of those comps, as the dwellings on those properties have electric, water and sewage.
“Based on the fair market value on properties that are sold I would be lucky if I could get $60,000 for the place,” he said.
The case comes down to what constitutes a “homestead.”
According to Jim Knapp, interim director at the state Division of Property Valuation and Review, Vermont defines a homestead as the “principal dwelling and parcel of land surrounding the dwelling, owned by a resident individual on April 1, and occupied as the individual’s domicile for a minimum of 183 days out of the calendar year.”
Asked if an unoccupied deer camp meets the state’s definition, Knapp replied, “The legal concept of domicile is the place that you intend to be your residence … it’s your home, even though you may temporarily be away. The concepts are owned and occupied as domicile. …A hunting camp is clearly not (a domicile), because you don’t occupy that as your residence.”
However, Knapp added that some towns use another definition of “homestead,” which may apply.
“At a local level, when they do assessments for tax purposes in some towns, if you own a piece of land big enough to develop for a home, even if it isn’t presently developed as a home, they may very well assign a homestead value.”
Under that definition, towns may assign a higher value to one or two acres of the property owner’s total acreage simply because a house could be built, even though the owner has no such intentions.
“You could, in theory, build on this property — and that has a value. So you’ll see cases where even bare land may have a housesite or a homestead area that can be developed, and that is assigned a higher value,” Knapp said.
Chase didn’t say what he will do if the state rejects his appeal. If the appeal is unfavorable, the case could go to court, and eventually to the state Supreme Court. Chase said he’s on solid legal ground due to Ames v. Town of Danby, a state Supreme Court decision from 1978 that deemed property assessments from other towns as relevant to fair market value.
Meanwhile, the property owner claimed his year-long struggle and mounting expenses were the fault of uninformed listers.
“O’Neill said she drove by — she never looked in or on the property — and she said I had part-time occupancy,” Chase said. “Why did they say I had part-time occupancy, which I never had? So they could classify it as a homestead, which boils down to a lot of high valuation on the two acres.”

There was a magazine freebie recently which I was unable to resist - a stamp and die set with a weather theme. What particularly pleased me was that the umbrella die included both a whole shape of the open umbrella and also the part which could be cut separately for the coloured sections - very good for a freebie I thought so thanks Clearly Besotted for such a good die. I cut two layers in white and carefully lined them up and glued together before cutting out the top sections using scraps of blue and pink card so that these could be 'paper-pieced' into the shape; finally I used one of the stamps to add grey to the handle (using the Misti) which made that straightforward. The wording at the top, the clouds and raindrops were from the stamp set, although the clouds had to be fussy cut with scissors. The message at the bottom used a stamp which I've had for ages. The sky effect was achieved by smooshing some distress ink onto a glass mat, spritzing with water and then sort of mopping it up with a square of watercolour paper. There are several umbrella stamps within the set which I've not used yet - plenty of possibilities.

A Gainesville man accused of attempted murder in an August shooting of his girlfriend was convicted by the jury on lesser charges of reckless conduct and aggravated assault, according to court documents.
The jury returned its verdict before 5 p.m. Wednesday, May 11, for Clinton Andrew Smith, who was facing charges of attempted murder, aggravated battery and aggravated assault.
Superior Court Judge Jason Deal sent the jury into deliberations after 11:30 a.m. Wednesday following closing arguments by both sides.
The defense tried to prove that the gun was unsafe and was fired unintentionally. Smith took the stand in his own defense Tuesday, May 10, saying he was trying to scare off a dog Aug. 9 when he encountered his girlfriend, Kristina Rosenberg.
Smith said he went up to the Cool Springs Road house to see if Rosenberg’s daughter was still there.
“All I wanted to do before I shot that gun was go inside and ask if (Rosenberg’s daughter) was still here, because both her and her mama are terrified of guns,” Smith said Tuesday on the stand.
Rosenberg testified Monday that Smith came onto the porch Aug. 9, 2021, with a gun in his hand, and she moved the gun with her hand. In the attempted murder charge, Smith was accused of pointing the gun at Rosenberg’s head before shooting her in the chest.
“I think me pulling it down made his hand hit the trigger,” Rosenberg testified.
The prosecution, however, brought witnesses that showed how Rosenberg has told conflicting stories about the shooting being accidental.
The jurors were allowed to consider two less serious charges of reckless conduct and pointing a gun at another for each of the three counts.
They ultimately decided to convict Smith of reckless conduct on two counts instead of attempted murder and aggravated battery. The jury also found Smith guilty of aggravated assault.
Smith will be sentenced Thursday, May 12, according to the prosecution.

How long can you wait to fix a broken finger?
Breaks in the bones of the finger usually heal well in about 3 to 4 weeks. The pain and swelling from a broken finger can last for weeks.
Is it OK to leave a broken finger untreated?
When left untreated, broken and dislocated fingers can cause serious problems in the long term, including permanent loss of movement and sensation. Call on the specialists at OAA to help you reach an accurate diagnosis and begin treating your injury as soon as possible.
What happens if you wait too long to fix a broken finger?
According to the Mayo Clinic, a few days usually won’t make a big difference with a broken finger. But if you wait too long, it can impact healing and possibly lead to decreased range of motion or reduced grip strength. If you have any of the warning signs, it makes sense to see a doctor as soon as possible.
When is it too late to put a cast on a broken bone?
Immobilization. Restricting movement of a broken bone, which requires a splint, sling, brace or cast, is critical to healing. Before applying a cast, your doctor will likely wait until the swelling goes down, usually five to seven days after injury. In the meantime, you’ll likely wear a splint.
Should you sleep with a finger splint on?
What about sleeping? Always wear the splint full time when you sleep. When we sleep, all of us naturally curl up our fingers without realizing it. In fact, after the initial 6-week healing period, you will need to sleep in the splint for another 2 months.
Can bone heal without cast?
Technically speaking, the answer to the question “can broken bones heal without a cast?” is yes. Assuming conditions are just right, a broken bone can heal without a cast. However, (and very importantly) it doesn’t work in all cases. Likewise, a broken bone left to heal without a cast may heal improperly.
Can a jammed finger be permanent?
An untreated jammed finger can lead to permanent difficulties. The most common complication is stiffness. A treatment team for a jammed finger often includes an occupational hand therapist to help with motion.
Can anything be done for a broken finger?
You can relieve pain from a finger fracture for a short time with ice and medication. But you’ll need to see a healthcare provider as soon as possible for an X-ray. Depending on the type and severity of the fracture, your provider may suggest a splint to stabilize your finger or surgery to repair the break.
How do you straighten a broken finger?
Isolated PIP flexion Place the hand with the affected finger flat on a table, palm up. With your other hand, press down on the fingers that are not affected. Your affected finger will be free to move. Slowly bend your affected finger. Hold for about 6 seconds. Then straighten your finger. Repeat 8 to 12 times.
Does a broken finger bruise?
Usually within the next 5-10 minutes, you will notice swelling and redness. As the swelling continues, the finger will become stiff and difficult to move. Swelling may also spread to the adjacent fingers. If the fracture is severe, you may see bruising.
How long after a bone is broken can it be reset?
Healing time for fractured bones According to the Cleveland Clinic, the average bone healing time is between 6 – 8 weeks, although it can vary depending on the type and site of the injury. People usually stop feeling pain long before the broken bone has healed and the limb is ready for regular activity.
What happens if a fracture is left untreated?
When a bone fracture is untreated, it can result in either a nonunion or a delayed union. In the former case, the bone doesn’t heal at all, which means that it will remain broken. As a result, swelling, tenderness, and pain will continue to worsen over time.
Can a fracture heal in 4 weeks?
Most fractures heal in 6-8 weeks, but this varies tremendously from bone to bone and in each person based on many of the factors discussed above. Hand and wrist fractures often heal in 4-6 weeks whereas a tibia fracture may take 20 weeks or more. Healing time for fractures are divided into three phases: 1.
What are 3 things you should not do while splinting?
Never stick items under your splint to scratch the skin. Do not use oils or lotions near your splint. If the skin becomes red or sore around the edge of the splint, you may pad the edges with a soft material, such as moleskin, or use tape to cover the edges.
How tight should finger splint be?
Your splint should be snug enough to hold your finger in a straight position so that it does not droop. But it should not be so tight that it cuts off blood flow. You should keep your splint on unless your doctor tells you that you can take it off. Each time you take it off, it can lengthen your recovery time.
Can I take my finger splint off to shower?
Tape a sheet of plastic to cover your splint when you take a shower or bath, unless your doctor said you can take it off while bathing. If you can take the splint off when you bathe, pat the area dry after bathing and put the splint back on. If your splint gets a little wet, you can dry it with a hair dryer.


Mass measurements of the nuclides As69,Se70,71, and Br71, produced via fragmentation of a Xe124 primary beam at the Fragment Separator (FRS) at GSI, have been performed with the multiple-reflection time-of-flight mass spectrometer (MR-TOF-MS) of the FRS Ion Catcher with an unprecedented mass resolving power of almost 1000000. Such high resolving power is the only way to achieve accurate results and resolve overlapping peaks of short-lived exotic nuclei, whose total number of accumulated events is always limited. For the nuclide As69, this is the first direct mass measurement. A mass uncertainty of 22 keV was achieved with only ten events. For the nuclide Se70, a mass uncertainty of 2.6 keV was obtained, corresponding to a relative accuracy of dm/m=4.0×10-8, with less than 500 events. The masses of the nuclides Se71 and Br71 have been measured with an uncertainty of 23 and 16 keV, respectively. Our results for the nuclides Se70,71 and Br71 are in good agreement with the 2016 Atomic Mass Evaluation, and our result for the nuclide As69 resolves the discrepancy between the previous indirect measurements. We measured also the mass of the molecule N14N15Ar40 (A=69) with a relative accuracy of dm/m=1.7×10-8, the highest yet achieved with an MR-TOF-MS. Our results show that the measured restrengthening of the proton-neutron interaction (dVpn) for odd-odd nuclei along the N=Z line above Z=29 (recently extended to Z=37) is hardly evident at the N-Z=2 line, and not evident at the N-Z=4 line. Nevertheless, detailed structure of dVpn along the N-Z=2 and N-Z=4 lines, confirmed by our mass measurements, may provide a hint regarding the ongoing ˜500 keV discrepancy in the mass value of the nuclide Br70, which prevents including it in the world average of Ft value for superallowed 0+?0+ ß decays. The reported work sets the stage for mass measurements with the FRS Ion Catcher of nuclei at and beyond the N=Z line in the same region of the nuclear chart, including the nuclide Br70.

Thankfully, our spring barley harvest 2023 is safely gathered in – all 15 acres of it.
With the crop burnt off the previous week, it was standing perfectly, with Dad enjoying a blissful autumn harvest day atop our 59-year-old MF 400. The sun was shining, dust rising, and Angie Philips had forecast at least three dry days – bliss.
I had just tedded out the straw on the half of the field that had been cut and went back to the yard to empty the grain trailer.
As I got out of the tractor to undo the backdoor latch, Millie, our oldest collie, came running over, clinging to my side to a point where I almost tripped over her and proceeded to clamber into the tractor cab.
At this point, I realised just how dark the skies were becoming. Millie only acts in such a manner when thunder is near and, sure enough, by the time I returned to the field, the sky was lit up with the first strikes of lightening, quickly followed by a torrential downpour.
Fortunately, the following day was much improved, allowing enough time to complete combining, but the forecast would not permit us to get the straw dry enough to make small bales.
I was keen to get the field cleared of straw so we could direct-drill a reseed. A local contractor managed to find the time to get the field round-baled and wrapped, and before we had removed the last of the bales, he had another tractor in the field with a Moore Unidrill completing the reseed.
Normally, we would apply slurry after drilling, but considering the conditions, we were happy just to be able to top-dress it with fertiliser. Given the challenging conditions, it will be interesting to see how effectively grass is established.
“You Irish just feed meal so you can lure your cows into your tiny, dark milking parlours” – that was the unfiltered comment I received many years ago while on a work placement in New Zealand.
In truth, I could lure a Fleckvieh heifer almost anywhere with the prospect of a 16% protein dairy nut, although other breeds are perhaps a bit more cautious.
Calving is well underway, and so is the education of fresh heifers to the milking routine. The six Fleckvieh-cross heifers calved to date only have to be directed towards the parlour entrance and they will rush in with a determination that reminds me of Tadhg Furlong powering over a try line.
Once in position (and allocated their feed), they will stand perfectly while I strip, spray, clean and attach the clusters.
Their Holstein compatriots are slightly more predisposed to the odd kick (which from their perspective is perfectly understandable) and repeated removal of the cluster, often accompanied with a torrent of dung.
However, it still doesn’t compare to the aggression I received from Kiwi-cross heifers I worked with in New Zealand.
In a concerted effort to assess Johne’s Disease status and eliminate it from the herd, last year we started a programme of testing milk samples as part of our milk recording.
So far, we have identified two cows classified as high risk and four as medium – as a result, all of these cows were culled.
While I understand some dairy farmers will effectively manage such cows within their herd so that they cannot spread infection, for simplicity and peace of mind we chose the lowest risk option. Also, because we cannot be sure of a maiden heifer’s Johne’s status, I don’t use her colostrum to feed to offspring, but instead feed the calf with either fresh or frozen colostrum from a low-risk cow.
Hopefully, it is a process that will reduce the likelihood of transmission of Johne’s to the next generation, but it does require storage of a large amount of colostrum.
As understanding and good-natured as my mother is, I think she was fed up of going through stacks of 4kg bags of frozen milk to find a pack of peas. Dad has now spoiled her with a separate freezer just for colostrum, and it wasn’t even her birthday.

BOONE COUNTY, Ind. – A $2,500 reward is being offered to find those responsible for causing extensive damage to an iron bridge in northwestern Boone County.
The sheriff’s office says it first learned of the damage on Nov. 10, when deputies were dispatched to bridge that crosses Sugar Creek. A resident in the area told officers that a CAT farm tractor towing a chisel plow had struck the bridge.
Boone County Highway officials later came to scene and determined that the damage was severe enough to close the bridge.
The iron structure, which is listed as a historical bridge under the Indiana Historical Bridge Inventory, had recently been refurbished and restored to keep its unique and historic look.
The sheriff’s office say the closing of the bridge has caused people in the area “a great inconvenience going to and from work, travelling the area, and school bus routes.”
The bridge, which officials say has become a landmark, has also been used as a site for yearbook, wedding and family photos.
Two local residents have come together to offer the $2,500 reward. Anyone with information regarding this incident is asked to contact the Boone County Sheriff’s Office at 765-482-1412 or email email@example.com.

Cool, wet soils and improper drainage can lead to slow germination and establishment of soybean seeds making them more susceptible to attack by soil-borne seed and seedling pathogens. Using soybean seed treatment products can help reduce disease infections, which can result in more uniform plant stands, improved yield potential, and fewer replant situations.
An early planting date can increase soybean yield potential and is often recommended for high-yield soybean production. Reduced tillage and narrow row spacing are also key practices for obtaining maximum yield potential. However, soybean yield potential can be compromised by environmental stresses and a complex of soil-borne pathogens early in the season, which negatively affect root health and seedling vigor.
Germination and emergence are rapid at temperatures above 77 °F, but seeds can germinate at lower temperatures. Cool (less than 60 °F) and moist soil conditions can slow germination and establishment of soybean seeds, making them more susceptible to soil-borne seed and seedling pathogens such as pythium, phytophthora, and fusarium. Warm, moist soil environments favor the pathogen rhizoctonia.
Effects of unfavorable early-season planting conditions can be minimized by using products from Acceleron Seed Applied Solutions. Acceleron Seed Applied Solutions products for soybean contain multiple modes of action to provide broad spectrum control of diseases and insects and promote improved plant health through more rapid and increased emergence of seedlings under suboptimal soil conditions. Acceleron Seed Applied Solutions products for soybean can protect seeds and seedlings from certain diseases and insects for up to 30 days after planting. Three tiers of seed treatment products are available.
Acceleron® Seed Applied Solutions BASIC for soybean seed contains an exclusive fungicide combination featuring fluxapyroxad, pyraclostrobin, and metalaxyl, which provide excellent control of rhizoctonia, pythium, fusarium, and early-season phytophthora. Fluxapyroxad adds an additional fungicide mode of action for more complete, consistent protection from rhizoctonia and fusarium.
Acceleron® Seed Applied Solutions STANDARD for soybean seed contains the fungicide combination plus the insecticide imidacloprid for protection from early-season diseases plus protection from early-season soybean aphids and bean leaf beetle.
Acceleron® Seed Applied Solutions ELITE for soybean seed contains the fungicide combination plus Poncho®/ VOTiVO®. This product offers protection from the early-season diseases and insects mentioned above plus additional insect protection and protection against soybean cyst nematode (SCN) and other nematodes.
Acceleron® Seed Applied Solutions products for soybeans can be paired with ILeVO® to help provide additional protection from sudden death syndrome (SDS) and includes a biological mode of action for SCN, root-knot, and reniform nematodes. ILeVO can be used with SCN-resistant and other soybean products to manage nematodes in newly infested fields or fields with established infestations. ILeVO is the only seed treatment that provides early-season SDS control (both the root rot and foliar phases) and a true nematicide that kills nematodes in the seed zone.
Acceleron® E-007 SAT is a dry seed finisher that allows for faster drying of treated seeds and reduces the stickiness of treated seeds, thereby improving seed flow through seed handling and planting equipment.
Acceleron® B-200 SAT is a biological product for soybeans that contains plant-derived flavonoids. Flavonoids attract and stimulate the growth of beneficial microbes in the soil, which promotes their colonization on soybean roots, nodule formation, and nitrogen fixation. This results in enhanced nutrient availability and uptake, which can lead to a healthier crop and increased yield potential.

President of the U.S., 1993-2001; Former Democratic Governor (AR)
Allow medical research that uses tissue from aborted fetuses
The Trump administration announced that the federal government would sharply curtail federal spending on medical research that uses tissue from aborted fetuses, mainly by ending fetal-tissue research within the NIH.
But scientists say the tissue is
crucial for studies that benefit millions of patients. Critics say it also fit a pattern by the administration of diminishing the role of science and research in policymaking, including on climate change and tariffs.
Shortly after he took office,
President Bill Clinton lifted a five-year ban on fetal tissue research imposed by Presidents Reagan and Bush. The fight flared again in 2015, after anti-abortion activists released doctored videos they secretly took, purporting to show
Planned Parenthood officials discussing plans to illegally sell aborted fetal tissue for research. House Republicans began an investigation of the fetal-tissue market; a number of states also investigated but found no wrongdoing by Planned Parenthood.
1993: Rescind Mexico City Policy: fund abortion abroad
Trump signed an executive order to reinstate the Mexico City Policy, a policy regarding non-governmental organization (NGO) funding and abortion named after the city in which it was announced. The Mexico City Policy--called the "Global Gag Rule" by
political opponents--was introduced by President Ronald Reagan (R) in 1984 and makes "neither performing nor actively promoting abortion as a method of family planning in other nations" conditions of receiving federal funding for any NGO.
Rescinding or reinstating this policy has become a tradition when party control of the White House changes. After being instituted in 1984 by Reagan, President Bill Clinton (D) rescinded the policy on January 22, 1993.
Exactly nine years later, President George W. Bush (R) reinstated the policy, only to have in rescinded by President Barack Obama (D) on January 23, 2009.
1980s: pro-choice since Bible defines life starting at birth
Bill Clinton was struggling over the definition of human life. He asked his pastor, Vaught, whether he could provide some insight.
Vaught was one of the leading abortion opponents among Little Rock clergy, but he said he shared some of Clinton’s
ambivalence, having personally witnessed “some extremely difficult” pregnancies. He was not convinced that the Bible forbade abortion in all circumstances.
The minister went to his Bible to reconsider, after which Vaught determined that in the original
Hebrew, “personhood” stemmed from words translated as “to breathe life into.” Thus, he averred, the Bible would define a person’s life as beginning at birth, with the first intake of breath. He reportedly told the governor that this did not mean that
abortion was right, but he felt one could not say definitively, based on Scripture, that it was murder.
In all of his discussions about abortion thereafter, Clinton relied on his minister’s interpretation to bolster his pro-choice position.
On the 4th day of the Clinton presidency, Jan. 23, the 20th anniversary of Roe v. Wade, Bill Clinton signed, in a televised Oval Office ceremony, a series of executive orders undoing the draconian policies of the Reagan-Bush era relating to abortion,
contraception, and family planning.
Hillary had pushed unequivocally for the orders, but Bill’s pollster argued that she was dead wrong on the timing of such a hot-button issue; by acting on abortion policy as one of the administration’s first pieces
of business, the president and, worse, Hillary, would be perceived as governing from the left. But Hillary regarded the prohibitions in question as a powerful symbol of
Reagan-era policies, and an opportunity to declare boldly that the Clinton era had begun. There was an additional appeal: it was fiscally neutral, monetarily cost-free, and not subject to a drawn-out legislative process.
Everyone knows life begins biologically at conception. No one knows when biology turns into humanity. Most abortions that don’t involve the life or health of the mother are chosen by scared young women and girls who don’t know what else to do. It’s hard
to apply the criminal law to acts that a substantial portion of the citizenry doesn’t believe should be labeled crimes, (as with Prohibition). I thought then [in the 1973 Roe v. Wade decision] and still believe that the Court reached the right conclusion.

Vetoed partial birth abortion ban for having no exceptions
Opponents of a ban on partial birth abortions claimed that it was used only when necessary to protect the mother's life. Unfortunately for that argument, the physician who is the best-known practitioner of these abortions stated in 1993 that
80% of them are "purely elective," not necessary to save the mother's life or health. Partial birth understates the matter. The baby is outside the mother except for its head, which is kept in the mother only to avoid a charge of infanticide.
Full birth is inches away and could easily be accomplished.
President Clinton did, in fact, veto the bill banning partial birth abortion, demanding a vague exception for health that would have amounted to a ratification of almost all such abortions.
His veto and the feminist demand for what is, in truth, infanticide underscore the casual brutality born of nihilism that is an ever more prominent feature of our culture.
In Kazakhstan, I visited a small women's-wellness center funded through US foreign aid. Because of the unavailability of contraception, abortion had become a common form of family planning under communism. The Clinton
Administration's policy was to make abortion "safe, legal and rare." We worked to discourage abortion and minimize the spread of sexually transmitted diseases by providing aid for family planning and improved maternal health.
This policy contradicted the global gag rule that had been imposed by President Reagan, continued by Bush and rescinded by Bill on the second day of his Presidency (later reinstated by George W. Bush). The doctors at the
Almaty clinic told me that the rates of both abortion and maternal deaths were decreasing, further proof that our practical policy was more effective at making abortion rare than the Republicans' more visceral anticontraception approach.
1993: allowed abortions on overseas U.S. military bases
Bill Clinton’s feminist cheerleaders and the abortion lobby had to wait only two days into the
Clinton presidency before a memorandum was issued allowing abortions on U.S. military bases overseas, another reversal of Reagan and Bush policy.

Require Medicaid to pay for abortions for poor women
Promise: to overturn laws prohibiting federal abortion funding.
Status: During the Reagan and Bush Administrations, these services had been banned by the Hyde Amendment. Now, federal law requires Medicaid to pay for abortions for poor women in cases of rape or incest.

Revoke Mexico City Policy: family planning ok in foreign aid
Promise: To allow US funds to support international family planning and population control efforts.
Status: The Mexico City Policy which banned funding to worldwide family planning groups was revoked by Presidential Memorandum on January 22, 1993.
Roughly $40 million--the first funding since 1985--was in the budget for FY94. The Administration announced that by the year 2000 comprehensive family planning services would be available to "every woman in the world who wants them."

Let women decide with their doctor and their God
Americans believe deeply in the need to keep government out of private, personal matters. That is one reason why I am pro-choice. I believe we should all work to reduce the number of abortions. That is why I have worked to reduce teen pregnancy,
remove barriers to cross-racial adoption, and provide tax credits to families willing to adopt. Still, I believe the ultimate choice should remain a matter for a woman to decide in consultation with her conscience, her doctor, and her God.

A charitable foundation created to extend the legacy of a courageous Nuneaton baby has delivered its biggest donation so far.
The University of Birmingham has received the £120,000 needed to buy a cell sorter machine - which The Azaylia Foundation says is a 'crucial piece of laboratory equipment'.
Azaylia Cain lost her battle against acute myeloid leukaemia earlier this year, aged just eight months old.
Before her death, parents Ashley Cain and Safiyya Vorajee created a fund to pursue potentially life-saving, but expensive, treatment abroad. This generated in excess of £1.6m of funds which was transferred into the hands of the newly created Azaylia Foundation, after her tragic passing in April.
The donation of the equipment was revealed via an Instagram post that explained how important it will be in the battle against childhood cancer.
It read: "The Azaylia Foundation is pleased to announce our first donation of £120k to the University of Birmingham, to help fund the purchase of a Cell Sorter machine - a crucial piece of laboratory equipment.
"This machine uses a combination of three lasers and special fluorescent dyes to allow us to recognise different types of cells – such as immune cells and cancer cells from the blood and tumour samples that get donated to our laboratory for research and as part of clinical trials of new treatments.
"The machine will allow more patient samples to be processed and enables doctors to provide detailed studies of how cancer cells respond to different treatments, as well as helping them in the design and production of exciting new potential immune therapies, such as CAR-T cells.
"We will continue to harness the incredible community support to change lives, and fulfil our charity's mission of raising funds for research, equipment and treatment not readily available in the UK."
More recently, £10,000 was donated to help fund an appeal to raise up to £500,000 to fund pioneering treatment abroad for 12-year-old George Fox, who was diagnosed with Glioblastoma, which is an aggressive brain tumour.
Sadly, there is no cure and as he can no longer access NHS standard care, only experimental treatment could save his life.
In a bid to raise more funds and awareness, former Coventry City FC player Ashley has undertaken a Three Peaks trek and cycle challenge.

New tax rules are hastening automation and modernizing in U.S. factories, giving manufacturers an incentive to buy machinery and boost productivity in a tight labor market.
The revised tax code allows companies to immediately deduct the entire cost of equipment purchases from their taxable income for the next five years. Previously, companies generally were allowed to write off only a portion of the cost in a single year.
The change is encouraging manufacturers to install robots and replace aging machines sooner than planned.
“We probably would have put it off another year” without the tax incentives, said Ken Mathas, president of Cornell Forge Co., a Chicago maker of gears and other components for heavy machinery. Mr. Mathas said he plans to spend at least $1.5 million this year to add three or more robots to a production line in lieu of workers he is struggling to find.
U.S. manufacturers already are benefiting from a global economic upswing, a weaker dollar that has made American products more competitive overseas and improved business sentiment at home.
Manufacturing output in the U.S. rose 3% in December compared with the same month the previous year, Federal Reserve data show, up from a year-earlier increase of 1%.
Some manufacturers have already increased their planned capital spending. Sales of manufacturing equipment this year are forecast to rise as much as 12% annually, according to the Association For Manufacturing Technology, up from an annual rate of 9% as of November.
By effectively reducing the cost of automation, the tax overhaul puts “another arrow in the quiver of companies that want to go that route,” said Josh Pokrzywinski, an analyst at Wolfe Research.
Rick Toth, whose 66 employees at Toth Industries Inc. in Toledo, Ohio, make parts for heavy trucks and construction equipment, said the depreciation benefit has encouraged him to buy at least three computerized metal-fabrication machines this year for up to $400,000 each. Before the legislation passed, he planned to buy just one machine to handle the 10% to 15% boost in business he expects this year. “You’ve got to be competitive in this marketplace to protect the jobs you have,” Mr. Toth said.
Aluminum producer Novelis Inc. is among the bigger companies planning to build new plants or spend more on factory equipment this year in part because of the beefed-up depreciation benefit.
“The tax reform solidified our decision and allowed us to feel very comfortable with the financial return,” said Steve Fisher, chief executive of Novelis. It plans to build a highly automated $300 million plant in Kentucky that would employ 125 experienced process engineers and metallurgists.
PPG Industries Inc., the Pittsburgh paint and coatings maker, plans to spend $50 million on capital projects in the U.S. this year in part because of the depreciation benefit. Equipment upgrades will boost productivity, a spokesman said, adding it isn’t clear whether they would be more automated than existing manufacturing methods.
The benefit led executives at diaper- and tissue-maker Kimberly-Clark Corp. to move up plans to spend as much as $200 million to make one U.S. factory more productive. The plan, which awaits board approval, comes as the Kimberly-Clark plans to close 10 factories and lay off thousands of workers.
Other companies are boosting capital spending without singling out the depreciation benefit. Apple Inc. said the tax law’s benefits for repatriating overseas cash contributed to its decision to commit $4 billion more to modernizing production facilities for its U.S. suppliers.
Fiat Chrysler Automobiles NV suggested the tax overhaul contributed to its decision to shift production of Ram Heavy Duty trucks in 2020 from Mexico to a partially automated plant in Michigan. “Tax reform, I think, was an absolute essential ingredient of the decision-making,” Chief Executive Sergio Marchionne said.
Joel Prakken, chief U.S. economist at the forecasting firm Macroeconomic Advisers in Washington, D.C., estimates the new tax law will add 5% to business spending on equipment nationally by 2024. He sees the tax law boosting manufacturing production by an additional 1.25% by 2025.
“It’s a positive effect,“ Mr. Prakken said. ”But at the national level it’s not transformational.”
Some companies were already shifting toward more mechanized production. The Minneapolis Federal Reserve said this month that 45% of manufacturers responding to a recent survey said they added automation over the past year to increase productivity. About a third did so to mitigate worker shortages and reduce labor costs.
Rockwell Automation Inc., the Milwaukee maker of factory software and hardware, expects the tax changes will spur customers to make overdue upgrades to equipment purchased during earlier waves of automation, CEO Blake Moret said.
“The equipment that’s in those U.S. factories gets older every day,” Mr. Moret said, adding that Rockwell is considering investing in additional U.S. production to meet expected demand.
The continuing trend toward automation has pushed down manufacturing employment overall since the financial crisis but also has created some well-paying jobs that require years of training or an engineering degree.
Still, wages aren’t keeping up with the upswing in production. Even as U.S. unemployment lingers at a 17-year low of 4.1%, factory wages rose 2.2% annually last year, down from a 3% annual bump in 2016.
Flowserve Corp. , a maker of pumps and valves, was planning to add machine-learning capabilities to its equipment. Networks of sensors and software to monitor its machines have helped Flowserve pick up some of the slack resulting from a 20% workforce cut following a downturn in business from its oil- and gas-producing clients.
“In this relentless pursuit of cost-cutting, we have been asking our plants to simply do more with less,” said Eric van Gemeren, Flowserve’s vice president of marketing and technology.
Other companies say the tax legislation changed their plans. Nicole Wolter, president of HM Manufacturing Inc. in suburban Chicago, said because of the lower 21% corporate tax rate she will be able to afford three additional milling and lathe machines this year for her 20-employee firm, which makes transmission and other components.
Aneesa Muthana, owner of medical- and automotive-parts maker Pioneer Service Inc. in Addison, Ill., is willing to hire eight new workers to help operate the 12 machines she plans to purchase as a result of the depreciation benefit. She doesn’t know where she will find them, though.
“It’s almost impossible,” she said.

Different types of allergy exist, the most common of which are:
Allergy to flea bites
An allergic dog will remain allergic for life, so he will need care… for life!
It is an allergic reaction to substances found mainly in the saliva that the flea injects when it stings a dog. A single bite can trigger a seizure, and several stings can trigger a violent reaction in some dogs.
Affected dogs should be treated all year round with appropriate insecticides and with specific treatment in case of crisis.
It is an allergy to one or more ingredients found in the dog’s diet (ration or sweets). It is managed with a suitable diet, excluding the incriminated ingredients, and a specific treatment in case of crisis.

Sen. Steve Daines, a Republican from Montana, warned Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm in a letter this week that new rules being proposed by her department could outlaw up to 96% of the gas-powered stoves presently sold in the United States, Fox News informed.
In the letter delivered on Wednesday, Daines pointed out that the Department of Energy (DOE) itself acknowledges that only 4% of the current market share for gas stoves would satisfy the strict standards governing the efficiency levels of gas stoves, effectively outlawing the vast majority of products on the market. On February 1, the DOE released the draft regulation, shortly after the Biden administration came under fire for appearing to press forward with a gas stove ban.
Daines responded to Granholm that the Department explicitly stated in the Proposed Rule that only 4% of the current market share satisfies the excessively high new proposed requirement.
This indicates that 96% of the current gas cooking tops would be prohibited from further manufacture and sale, according to the Department’s own study provided in the Proposed Regulation.
He continued, “This obviously goes against the position of President Biden as stated in the hearing by an Assistant Secretary of the Department that issued the rule.
In response to inquiries from Daines on February 16, Andrew Light, the DOE’s assistant secretary of energy for international affairs, stated that President Biden was not in favor of outlawing gas stoves.
In his letter, the Montana lawmaker noted that Light’s remarks appeared to conflict with the suggestion made by the agency itself.
He added that, in a “strange coincidence,” the DOE released new data right after the hearing with Light that appeared to contradict material in the proposed rule from February 1.
Daines asked the DOE to brief lawmakers and staff on the effects of the gas stove regulation before it was finalized as part of his letter’s request.
Daines’ worries came after a member of the obscure Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) who was appointed by Biden made news when he told Bloomberg in early January that a ban on gas stoves was “on the table” due to the product’s alleged negative effects on health.
After receiving harsh criticism from business organizations and Republican congressmen, the White House eventually declared it would not support a ban on gas stoves. Granholm referred to the prohibition as “ridiculous.”
