If you’re splashing around at a water park or public pool, whatever you do, don’t take a gulp of the water.
You’re basically wading in a public bath filled with strangers’ germs and dirt, experts say.
“Every time you move, you’re releasing a million microbes and that’s all going into the water,” Jason Tetro, a Canadian microbiologist and bestselling author, told Global News.
“Little viruses could end up in your swimming pool giving you ear aches, gastrointestinal problems, pink eye. Usually, there’s a high enough chlorine concentration to kill them,” Tetro said.
The American Chemical Society warns that public pools “are not always as clean as you might think, even when disinfected.”
Here’s a look at what may be wading in at a water park or public pool.
In 2013, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention warned that feces are “frequently” introduced into the pool water by swimmers.
Fifty-eight per cent of pool filter samples tested positive for E. coli, bacteria that are normally found in the human gut and feces.
One in four adults say they would swim within an hour of having diarrhea and 52 per cent admit they rarely or never shower before jumping into a pool. This does not bode well for clean pool water.
Yup, you know you’ve relieved yourself in a pool before. There’s a reason why pools are often nicknamed public bathrooms.
“Urine is, for the most part, sterile anyway. But components of urine can react with chlorine to create potentially carcinogenic chemicals. But it’s so low in concentration,” Tetro said.
Nineteen per cent of adults have peed in a pool, according to a 2012 survey. In a 2017 University of Alberta study, scientists found that a 110,000-gallon pool contains about seven gallons of urine — about enough to fill a medium-sized trash bin.
Recreational water illnesses – or RWIs – are caused by germs spread by swallowing, breathing in mists or having contact with contaminated water in pools, hot tubs and water park areas, according to the CDC.
RWIs cause a wide variety of infections, from gastrointestinal issues, skin, ear and respiratory problems, and – the most common – diarrhea.
And then there are the germs that aren’t killed by chlorine. Earlier this year, the CDC warned about a rise in illnesses tied to cryptosporidium – or “crypto.”
“Crypto is not easily killed by chlorine and can live up to 10 days in well-treated pools. Just a small number of crypto germs can make someone sick. That’s why it is important to keep crypto out of the water in the first place,” Michele Hlavsa, a CDC epidemiologist and chief of the agency’s Healthy Swimming Program, said in a statement.
Hlavsa called on those who are feeling under the weather to stay out of the water. The CDC is also insisting that there are great public health reasons why you should rinse off before you get into the pool and after you get out.
Scientists say health issues surface when chlorine and other disinfectants interact with the substances we add to the water (from our sweat to sunscreen and urine), creating harmful compounds.
“Studies of swimming pools have identified many of the resulting compounds, called disinfection byproducts. And testing has shown that they can cause genetic damage to cells in lab settings,” the ACS said in a statement.
“Other reports have found that some people who swim or work in and around pools have higher rates of certain health problems, including respiratory symptoms and bladder cancer.”
In their research, the ACS team studied water samples from public and private pools and hot tubs. They found more than 100 byproducts in the water from when disinfectants interacted with urine, sunblock, sweat and germs.
Open waters come with issues, too
Oceans and lakes come with their fair share of germs, too.
“Your greatest chance of infections is from naturally occurring microbes. You’re not worrying about the human component because there’s so much volume of water. There are a number of different types of fungi, amoeba and bacterial species that could potentially cause problems,” Tetro said.
How to protect yourself
So how do you stay safe? Simple hygiene can go a long way.
CDC recommends that all swimmers take the following steps to prevent infections while swimming:
- Keep feces and other contaminants out of the water.
- Do not swim when you have diarrhea.
- Shower with soap before you start swimming.
- Take a rinse shower before you get back into the water.
- Take bathroom breaks every 60 minutes.
- Wash your hands with soap after using the toilet or changing diapers.
- Check the chlorine level and pH before getting into the water.
- Pools: Proper chlorine (1–3 mg/L or parts per million [ppm]) and pH (7.2–7.8) levels maximize germ-killing power.
- Most superstores, hardware stores, and pool supply stores sell pool test strips.
- Do not swallow the water you swim in.


US emissions market poised for growth
The US market for carbon dioxide emissions is likely to grow to three times the size of its European equivalent, which accounts for more than 99% of the global total, according to the head of a company that operates carbon markets in both regions.
Neil Eckert, chief executive of London-based Climate Exchange, said: "We are convinced the US will introduce a mandatory carbon emissions system after the next election and that the US carbon market will grow to three times the size of that in Europe."
Climate Exchange operates the European Climate Exchange, which trades permits under the European Union's Emissions Trading Scheme, and the Chicago Climate Exchange, which trades voluntary emissions reduction credits.
Emissions trading schemes force companies to cut their greenhouse gas emissions by an amount that becomes legally binding. If they cut these below their targets, the companies can sell the excess credits to others that wish to emit more.
Climate Exchange launched a new US platform last week that allows power producers and investors in ten east-coast states to trade carbon dioxide futures, ahead of the introduction of the first government-mandated emissions trading programme in the region next year.
The Chicago Climate Futures Exchange saw 60,000 contracts traded on its first day and 4,000 on day two, according to the company's website. That compares with 3.4 million contracts traded on its London-based sister exchange.
Eckert said: "This launch has generated much more interest than many of our other contracts, which are now very successful."
The European carbon market more than doubled in value last year to $64bn (€41.8bn) and has grown more than sixfold since 2005, when permits worth just $7.9bn changed hands, according to the World Bank.
First-half trading volumes on the ECX gained 250% from those of a year ago, while volumes on CCX advanced almost 400% in the same period, the company said.
The CCFE priced carbon dioxide at €4.12 per metric tonne on Monday, or less than one fifth the €23.19 achieved in Europe, according to the company's website. Observers say the price difference is likely to close, converging on the cost of taking greenhouse gases out of the atmosphere using carbon-capture techniques.

I decided to go back to La Mancha for another taste of Spain, but wanted to stop into Pete's Waterfront Ale House to say hello to the world's friendliest bartender, Gaid, and to have a pre-dinner beer. And I got a wonderful surprise, Mr. Popcorn is out of rehab and seems to be showing no ill affects.
For this we are all grateful.
I had a draft IPA and the Mysterious Chinese Woman had a nice spicy Weiss beer, but I will be darned if I can remember what kind they were. I should have taken notes. Perhaps because we were just on the way to somewhere else I wasn't really all that focused. Plus Mr. Popcorn distracted me.
We swung by La Mancha, but it wasn't open yet. I thought it was supposed to be open at 2:00 P.M., but somebody inside said come back in half-an-hour. What was Bar Man to do with time to kill? Well, he could always go next door and have a beer.
The Atlantic Chip Shop
They have a nice selection of beers in here, but not exclusively British beers. In fact, very few of their draft beers were British. The bartender, Diana, said the selection of beers varied depending upon the time of year.
Diana, Kind Of Hiding
I had a Belhaven Scottish Ale which was about the most British thing they had, unless you wanted a bottle. I will probably try to stop in here next Thursday for the Scmaltz Brewing Company promotion. They are based in San Francisco and are most known for He'Brew, The Chosen Beer. However, they also brew in New York and have a line of Coney Island craft beers that include Coney Island Lager; Albino Python, a white lager brewed with spices; Sword Swallower, a steel hop lager - well, you get the point.
Should Be Fun
I am hoping they will pass out some swag. One of their Tee Shirts would be nice.
After finishing up my beer I went back to La Mancha that still wasn't "really" open. We were told it was because they had a big party the night before and the place was kind of a mess. Must have been a good party.
They still had the grilled sardines, kind of a stand-by, and then a couple of specials that sounded good, grilled octopus and also escargot that was somehow mixed with chorizo and cheese. Sounded weird, but hey, you know I had to try it.
All Kinds Of Good Stuff
My Little Plate
The Corizo And Cheese Stuffed Escargot
And, of course, the delicious Sangria that they make on the spot when you order it.
Best Sangria In Town
It was a bit on the cool side yesterday, but nice and sunny. It is fun to just sit at the bar here and gaze out at the street and watch the world pass by.
A Street View
Oh yeah, I told you about the Jamon Serrano Ham. Never heard of it before, well let me enlighten you:
"There is nothing more Spanish than jamón serrano. This country ham is a national treasure shared in Spain by all walks of life. Cured for at least a year, it has a much deeper flavor and firmer texture than its closest relative, Italian prosciutto. Serve as a 'Tapa' with cheese and olives."
"Jamon serrano country ham is a source of great pride among Spaniards. From time immemorial in the mountains of Spain, they have rolled fresh hams in sea salt and hung them from their rafters to cure. A year to eighteen months later the jamones are ready to mount on special stands that are designed so that anyone can stop by, carve a few paper-thin slices, and enjoy an impromptu snack – perhaps with some manchego cheese."
Jamone Serrano Ham On Its Special Stand
After our lovely meal and lingering over our sangria I decided to head back to Pete's Waterfront Ale House. I passed Gaid, the world's friendliest bartender, who sadly pointed out the demise of Mezcal's.
Mezcal's, It Has Ceased To Be
This is what happens when you get greedy landlords. You triple the monthly rent of a place that has been a neighborhood institution as long as I can remember and put them out of business. Now I am betting this place will just stay empty for months and then who knows what will appear. Probably an upscale apparel shop or something. We shall have to just wait and see.
Anyway, I was going to have that Weiss beer that the Mysterious Chinese Woman had earlier but then at the last minute decided I wanted a bottle of a smoked beer. Luckily they had just gotten one in.
Aecht Schlenkerla Rauchbier Urbock
Aecht Schlenkeria Rauchier Urbock is unpasteurized and is a ruby brown with just a thin head. Not really very carbonated but very malty. It has a distinctly smokey nose that smells kind of like a smoked ham. Quite pleasant if that is what you are looking for. It is a relatively reasonable 6.6% ABV and I hope they still have it the next time I stop in here for ribs. I would pair really well with them.
No Complaints Here
It was a might fine day and tomorrow, Saturday, should be another one. The Mysterious Chinese Woman and I are heading to The Gate in the early afternoon for their Cask Ale Fest and then drifting down to Brazen Head later for their Clam and Oyster Shuck. Maybe I will see you along the way.

The story to this piece came from watching one of my favourite channels, TCM. Those golden oldies are great to watch, as I find them much calmer and not as drastic as what we are offered now. The humour that was projected then is different than what it is today, with some of it being quite risque and at times a bit more edgy. However, I was watching this particular movie and the scene was a couple in a hotel room. They were both getting dressed — and while she was still just wearing her petticoats — a friend of his just barges into the room… and her partner jumps in front of her to gallantly block his friend’s view of her. Who would do that today?

David Letterman signs off tonight as television’s longest-running late-night host. He redefined late night — and comedy itself — with his mix of silliness and bone-dry irony.
With Letterman about to leap onto the Velcro wall of retirement, here are seven essential articles and tributes to the late-night legend.
“The Early Days of Late Night With David Letterman’’
“The show has made a star of a 38-year-old former TV weatherman and stand-up comic, who only several years ago was convinced, after three successive flops, that he would never work again. It’s also sparked an orgy of “time-switching’’ by VCR owners who regularly tape the show and watch it over the next morning’s breakfast. And it has even done something fairly subversive, at least as far as television goes: It has altered forever the accepted notions of what a talk show is and does.’’
“David Foster Wallace’s David Letterman Tribute’’
“‘That’s part of what makes him so dangerous,’ my husband said, lifting his glasses to massage the bridge of his nose. ‘The whole thing feeds off everybody’s ridiculousness. It’s the way the audience can tell he chooses to ridicule himself that exempts the clever bastard from real ridicule.’’’
“My Letterman Years’’
“There was a standing offer of $500 from Dave to anyone who booked a Beatle on the show. In 1989, Morty booked Ringo Starr and went to Dave to collect his money. Dave told him, ‘Ringo doesn’t count.’ I really wanted to book Paul McCartney — and actually had a connection.’’
“Merrill Markoe: Unsung Heroine of Late Night With David Letterman’’
“One form of constant entertainment was to put socks on this one dog. Everyone I knew did some version of a silly thing like that with their pets, so we ran an ad to see if we could pull a segment together like that.
When it succeeded, we mutated that idea into ‘Stupid Human Tricks.’ We also considered ‘Stupid Baby Tricks,’ but pulled the plug because—based on what we were seeing in the other two categories—we were afraid it would encourage child endangerment.’’
“He can reel off dozens of Obama jokes and McCain jokes and Paris Hilton jokes, but it is when Letterman begins to invert and mutter, when his personal neuroses and raw wounds are inflamed by the assaults of everyday life—and whose aren’t?—that is when he becomes something more than a good comedian and something like the scarred protagonist of his own comic novel—a bewildered, gutty mid-lifer at the crash intersection of American culture.’’
“The Lost Laughs of Letterman’’
“When I was a writer, anything to do with monkeys, canned ham, and Dave’s hair were all the rage. During this ‘romantic period,’ as I call it for no particular reason, I had the idea that we should contact the Chia Pet company and talk them into making a ‘Dave Chia,’ which was a mold of Dave’s head that when watered would grow plant hair that resembled Dave’s. I figured this was a ‘can’t miss proposition.’ Apparently it was ‘can miss,’ because after it went unused, I even tried to work it in again as a viewer mail joke and it still didn’t take.’’
“Behind the Headlines in the Leno — Letterman War’’
“The story of David Letterman and Jay Leno is a story of the two leading comedians of a generation who found their careers and their lives tossed into the high-speed mixer of show business competition. Their paths began along parallel lines, then crossed, with each man supplying the boost the other needed to vault himself toward stardom.’’
Fellow hosts bid farewell to Letterman

The Sesame Street campaign aims to reduce the stigma associated with Autism as well as introduce a better understanding of the condition. She makes her TV debut on "Sesame Street" in the "Meet Julia" episode airing April 10 on both PBS and HBO.
"It's tricky, because autism is not one thing, because it is different for every single person who has autism", said Ferraro. "There's a saying that if you've met one person with autism, you've met one person with autism".
As NPR reports, preliminary findings suggest the material helps families with autistic children feel more comfortable incorporating them in broader community activities, and that families whose children do not have autism are more accepting of those kids who do.
Julia will debut on the USA channels HBO and PBS, was well as on Cartoonito UK, Australia's ABC network, and Mexico's Televisa. About 1 in every 68 children in the USA has "been identified with autism spectrum disorder", according to the CDC. Gordon knows first-hand what it's like living in Julia's world, because her own son has autism.
"It's important for kids without autism to see what autism can look like", Gordon told the CBS show "60 Minutes" in a preview on Sunday.
Melanie Czoka Simmons commented: "I can't thank you enough Sesame Street!".
Designers use 2 sets of arms for Julia, who uses them to express emotions. "The "Meet Julia" episode is something that I wish my son's friends had been able to see when they were small", Stacey Gordon told the AP. Instead of making fun of her, the other Sesame Street characters will join in.
Julia also will struggle with loud noises and make up a game with her new friends.
"All children with autism are different, but they do have characteristics which are common". Elmo will then explain that "sometimes it takes her a little longer to do things". She likes to play games, blow bubbles and cuddle her favorite stuffed animal.
Middleton was joined by her husband Prince William who served as the Colonel of the Irish Guards after his appointment in 2011. Prince William has drawn a lot of flak for missing the Commonwealth Day service at Westminster Abbey for his trip to Verbier.
Before this becomes too cynical though, a lighter Elise is surely a better Elise: "Less mass means more Lotus", apparently. The auto is 23kg lighter than its predecessor, but with all lightweight options included that number increases to 40kg.
The largely Catholic nation's Congress is now on break for Lent, so Alejano's complaint won't be heard until May 7. Jose said "these visits are part of the President's introductory visits to countries in Southeast Asia".
She has previously described the prospect of reaching 100 as "an incredible adventure of song, dance, and friendship". It is thought the collection will make Lynn the first singer to have released a new album as a centenarian.

Andrew W.K. has announced a new album on social media, and stated that it is currently on the way for fans in a recent video post. The rock performer explained that he has been making slight adjustments and changes to the project for some time, although it is unknown when the album will be set for release.
A new Andrew W.K. album is coming… pic.twitter.com/nwVUzrsRgt
— ANDREW W.K. (@AndrewWK) February 6, 2020
W.K.’s most recent album effort You’re Not Alone came out in 2018, and was his first studio album in over nine years, following his 2009 effort 55 Cadillac. This latest project was his first album released through Sony Music and reached number 36 on the Top Rock Album Billboard charts.
The performer made an appearance at Psycho Las Vegas last year, which hosted the likes of Opeth, Mogwai, Uncle Acid and The Deadbeats, Twin Temple and Beach House. He was also a part of the SXSW Showcase special, which hosted other prominent hard hitting performers such as …And You Will Know Us By The Trail of Dead and Sir Sly.
Born Andrew Fetterly Wilkes-Krier, the performer started in a variety of local bands before transitioning into his solo career in New York City. He sat down with mxdwn for an interview regarding his hiatus and latest album release back in 2018.
“You know, I never officially quit and I didn’t even really take a break by any conscious methods,” W.K. explained during the interview.”I’ve been active all those years, still playing shows and recording music but I definitely had lost immediate contact. I didn’t lose sight entirely of the vision but the vision had become so obscured with confusion, chaos and doubt that almost all of it became confused. I had to claw my way back into myself essentially and renew my vows to the party gods.”

The Health Secretary will announce proposals for a new Chief Inspector of General Practice who will subject GPs to a “rigorous” inspection, handing out Ofsted-style ratings.
Mr Hunt will also pledge to bring back the family doctor for patients to make care more personal.
The announcement follows proposals by Mr Hunt earlier this year for independent Ofsted-style inspections of doctors’ surgeries and hospitals.
Mr Hunt has claimed some of the pressure on accident and emergency departments in recent months has been due to patients not knowing where to go for out of hours or community care, and being confused about who is responsible.
He wants to bring back the idea of the family doctor, and will call for patients to have one GP responsible for all their care.
In a speech on Thursday, held by think tank The King's Fund, the Health Secretary will say: “As a member of the public, I want to know my GP. And I want my GP to be someone that knows me and my family.
“Yet we've turned GP practices into places where it's a daily challenge for receptionists to cope with huge call volumes and GPs to get through to all the people they need to see.”
He will call for better personal care from GPs, particularly for frail and older patients who need care in the community but often don’t know where to go for this care, as part of his pledge to develop better alternatives to A&E.
Earlier this month the chairman of the Care Quality Commission said out-of-hours care was out of control and on the brink of collapse. The Health and Social Care Information Centre said the number of patients going to emergency departments had increased by a million in the last year.
It is hoped by making one person responsible for a patient’s care, who will know their medical history and can ensure they get the treatment they need, this will improve care for patients while also reducing pressure on A&E departments.
The Health Secretary wants to make primary care similar to that experienced in hospitals, where a consultant is responsible for a patient’s care.

It was announced as an evening for ‘Tequila Tasting’, and this was the first time the ceremony was holding in Nigeria.
It was also the first time the drink was being formally celebrated in the country.
Tequila, an alcoholic drink, has been described as ‘Mexico’s gift to the world’, as well as ‘Mexico’s national drink’.
It was recently presented to an audience in Abuja, courtesy of the Embassy of Mexico.
Speaking of gifts, Mexico has gifted much to mankind: Maize, which is now grown and eaten across the globe, is indigenous to the country, and Mexico has an amazing 64 varieties of the crop.
It also has 64 varieties of pepper, and chocolate which is consumed globally, is indigenous to Mexico.
The Tequila Tasting event held at the Casa Mexicana restaurant, owned by Goke and Maria Adegoroye which serves Mexican meals, and show cases many aspects of Mexican culture.
The restaurant has since become a magnet for lovers of all things Mexican, ranging from meals, drinks, art works, figurines and much more.
During the event Mrs Adegoroye mentioned that “Tequila is made from the blue Agave, a plant indigenous to Mexico which flowers once in its life time, and requires no irrigation or watering to flourish.”
“It grows well in the semi desert parts of country. The plant is medicinal and has a high insulin content, which is a sugar that can be used by persons being treated for Diabetes.”
She added “There are 8000 Agave farmers in Mexico, and 155 Tequila producing industries in the country. The area in Mexico which produces Tequila is also known as Tequila.
“It has since become a UNESCO World Heritage Site made up of 11.8 million hectares and comprises 180 municipalities in 5 states. Exports of Tequila have been put at $1.7Billion USD”.

The fact that the Tequila drink emerges from a World Heritage site, endows authenticity and prestige upon the product.
The third week of March each year hosts the National Day of Tequila in Mexico, which also coincides with the Mariachi Carnival, which is a celebration of traditional Mexican folk music.
The USA is the leading country in the world in terms of the import of Tequila from Mexico, according to statistics from 2018.
On the continent, South Africa is the only country on the list of 10 leading importers of Tequila across the globe.
The Mexican Chamber of the Tequila industry is in charge of representing, defending and promoting the general interests of the Tequila industry, as well as Tequila itself, adds Emma Marquez who helped to coordinate the delightful evening.
“We decided to do this event as a way of promoting Tequila, one of the most important products that we have in Mexico”, says Francisco Martinez, Head, Cultural and Economic Promotion, Embassy of Mexico.
He adds “Nigeria is very important to Mexico, and we want to show case Tequila to a community of different Nigerian business men, to share with them not only a knowledge of the product, but also all the cultural ideas that come with it.”
He explained that the Embassy wants to strengthen the economic relations between Mexico and Nigeria, pointing out that the trade between both nations today is based on the exchange of basic products like Sesame seeds, others.
Alejandro Garcia -Moreno, Ambassador of Mexico to Nigeria comments on the background to the event.
“Little is known here about how Tequila is made, of the many different varieties, many don’t know that Tequila is produced in five parts of Mexico. This event aims to bring the Tequila drink to the Nigerian market. We want to partner with Nigerian business men, so that they get to know about Tequila, its culture and history.”
It is possible to present a popular Mexican product to a non-Mexican audience, in a simple, entertaining and refreshing way, and pull it off handsomely.
Refreshing, engaging session
There may be a lesson here for nations trying to project, reinvent or rebrand their products, as a boost to the national economy and image.
When the famous drink is placed before the guest, he gently sniffs, stirs, tastes and savors it: this is how Mexicans drink it.
His taste buds connect with the full range of delights and sensations which it provides. You don’t hurry while drinking at a Tequila tasting ceremony, for drinking the famous product itself is an art, and a sense of art demands refinement in many, many things.
The glasses used should be the right size, a light meal may form part of the event, a song, the sustained jovial mood in the room as well as a festive almost romantic dance, help and do not hinder the overall effort.
Another Tequila Tasting event will hold later this year in Abuja, again at the prompting of the Mexican Embassy, in its effort to popularise Tequila among a wider circle of business interests.

Tolerance in the Middle East: A provincial official in Algeria has ordered seven Christian churches to close.
In 2008 the government applied measures in accordance with Ordinance 06-03 to limit the activities of non-Muslim groups, ordering the closure of 26 churches in the Kabylie region because they were not registered. No churches had been closed down since then. [Protestant Church of Algeria] members argue, however, that the law is impossible to implement as officials refuse to register their churches despite efforts to comply. They said the authorities apply the law when they want to harass churches.

MOORESVILLE, N.C. (Feb. 20, 2019) - The NASCAR Gander Outdoors Truck Series will be back in action this weekend as teams head to Atlanta (Ga.) Motor Speedway for the Atlanta 200. DGR-Crosley will field two trucks in the competition: the No. 17 Ceco Building Systems Toyota Tundra for Anthony Alfredo and the No. 54 N29 Technologies Tundra for Natalie Decker.
Alfredo, a 19-year-old Ridgefield, Conn. native, is set to make his national series debut on Saturday in the Atlanta 200. Alfredo and his No. 17 DGR-Crosley team recently tested at Atlanta Motor Speedway, giving the Truck Series Rookie Contender valuable time behind the wheel of a Tundra at the mile and a half track. Longtime DGR-Crosley employee, Chris Lawson will call the shots for Alfredo atop the pit box while former Cup spotter David Keith will guide him from the spotter stand.
Alfredo most recently raced in NASCAR K&N Pro Series East before joining DGR-Crosley. In 2018, he collected one win, five top-five and nine top-10 finishes during the 14 race season. Alfredo is also actively involved in the prestigious NASCAR Next program which highlights emerging up-and-coming racecar drivers.
Decker will be back in action at Atlanta Motor Speedway, after making her Truck Series debut last weekend. The Atlanta 200 will mark the 21-year-old Eagle River, Wis. native's first Truck Series start on a mile and a half track, as well as her first time racing at Atlanta Motor Speedway. Decker has six previous speedway starts which occurred in the ARCA Racing Series. In those six starts, she has one top-10 and has an average finish of 12th-place. Decker will have the same team behind her in Atlanta with veteran crew chief, Frankie Kerr and Cup spotter, Kevin Hamlin.
The Atlanta 200 will be broadcast live on FS1 beginning at 4:00 p.m., ET.
Alfredo on Atlanta:
"I'm excited to make my NASCAR Gander Outdoors Truck Series debut this weekend at Atlanta Motor Speedway. It'll be my first race at the national level, so I'm super pumped. My DGR-Crosley team has been working super hard getting my truck ready for me. I'm excited for the opportunity that I've been provided and I'm prepared to push the limits in my No. 17 Toyota Tundra and hopefully put together a solid run.
Decker on Atlanta: "Really bummed with how Daytona went for us. I was looking forward to getting some laps in my Toyota Tundra, but we are putting that behind us and shifting our focus on Atlanta. I'm really excited this weekend at Atlanta Motor Speedway because it will be my first trip to a mile and a half track in a truck. My teammate and the DGR-Crosley guys tested at Atlanta earlier this year. I've been studying film and preparing all week. I'm looking forward to getting down there and making some laps."

Background: Acute low back pain is the fifth most common reason for physician visits. Multiple treatment options are available, but not all physicians and patients are satisfied with the results. This study evaluated treatment outcomes from patients' perspectives using standardized measures.
Methods: 368 patients with acute low back pain were enrolled in the study. Only 128 participants (35%) completed all 4 health outcome questionnaires (administered at baseline, 6 weeks, 3 months, and 1 year).
Results: Most participants reported improved health at 1-year follow-up,, with the most significant gains achieved by 3 months. However, 40% were not satisfied with their outcome. Patients with radicular low back pain scored lower on health outcome measures than patients without radicular symptoms.
Conclusion: A sizeable percentage of patients with acute low back pain progress to chronic pain despite therapeutic intervention. Patients with radiculopathy may require nonstandard treatment to avoid unfavorable outcomes.

I’ve made my first jacket! Since it’s now winter, I like to layer, and wanted to sew up some jackets and jersey cardigans, so that I can layer them over dresses and short sleeved shirts. But I’ve never made a jacket before, so I wanted to use a very simple pattern. I ended up choosing New Look 6028, which is a lined jacket labelled easy.
I chose to make view D.
They attach the lining by stitching it to the outer fabric along the neckline, center front, and bottom edge, and then you turn it inside out through an opening in the lining on side. It has princess seams going through the armscythe.
I bought a nice wool boucle, but wanted to make a wearable muslin first, and so I used some denim from the annex at Mill End in Beaverton, OR. And for the lining, I used some flannel. I think I must have been really cold that day, because the flannel sounded so nice and cozy.
The pants are the Colette Clover pants. They were my second try at making the pants, and they fit much better than my first pair. I took in the high hip point by 3/4 inch, and the low hip point by 1/4 inch, and also decreased the front crotch length by 1/2 inch.
And lastly, the grey double-knit shirt is New Look 6901, which is my go to pattern for cowl neck shirts.
Overall, I do like the New Look 6028 jacket. I think that it is very easy to sew, and the only hand stitching required is to attach the sleeve lining to the sleeve. Therefore, it is a very fast sew. I think that I will not make another one with this pattern, since I am taking patternmaking, and should be drafting my own jacket, and I am not completely happy with the fit here.

|A legal ruling that would send 28 detained immigrant mothers and their children back to Latin America despite their claims they would be persecuted upon return was upheld on Monday by a federal appeals court.
A panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit denied asylum to the women from Honduras, Guatemala and Ecuador, saying their fears they would face violence at home were "not credible."
Judge D. Brooks Smith wrote in the decision that the justices were "sympathetic to the plight" of the petitioners, but he added that since the women arrived in the United States "surreptitiously" they were not entitled to constitutional protections.
The women came over the U.S. border in Texas but are being held at the Berks County Residential Center in Pennsylvania, said American Civil Liberties Union attorney Lee Gelernt, who represented the families.
"The decision is wrong as a matter of history and precedent, and if left intact, will be the first time in the history of the country that noncitizens on U.S. soil cannot obtain federal court review of the legality of their deportation," Gelernt said in a statement.

Shoegaze goes (indie) pop on the latest EP from Default 缺省.
Beijing shoegaze outfit Default sheds their skin on their bold and surprising new EP “Can You Hear The Whistle Blow”, out on SJ Records.
Restraining a good chunk of their overflowing reverb-soaked sound, the band is aiming for something more pop-originated, crafting four tracks that retain their appeal for emotional gravitas but through the means of indie pop, American folk guitars, and female-led rock and roll (ala Cranberries, Passion Pit, and Wolf Alice) thanks to the addition of vocalist Edine.
It’s an intriguing new direction – one as in its title track is rich in its arrangements and brimming with resonance.

It's possible to get or download caterpillar-wiring diagram from several websites. If you take a close look at the diagram you will observe the circuit includes the battery, relay, temperature sensor, wire, and a control, normally the engine control module. With an extensive collection of electronic symbols and components, it's been used among the most completed, easy and useful wiring diagram drawing program. Schematics Diagrams Electrolux 1205 Vacuum. The wiring diagram on the opposite hand is particularly beneficial to an outside electrician. Sometimes wiring diagram may also refer to the architectural wiring program. The simplest approach to read a home wiring diagram is to begin at the source, or the major power supply. Basically, the home wiring diagram is simply utilized to reveal the DIYer where the wires are.
If you can't locate the information, get in touch with the manufacturer. The info in the diagram doesn't indicate a power or ground supply. The intention of the fuse is to safeguard the wiring and electrical components on its circuit. A typical watch's basic objective is to tell you the good time of day.

In a parallel circuit, each unit is directly linked to the power supply, so each system gets the exact voltage. There are 3 basic sorts of standard light switches. The circuit needs to be checked with a volt tester whatsoever points. Schematics Diagrams Electrolux 1205 Vacuum. Each circuit displays a distinctive voltage condition. You are able to easily step up the voltage to the necessary level utilizing an inexpensive buck-boost transformer and steer clear of such issues. The voltage is the sum of electrical power produced by the battery. Be sure that the new fuse isn't blown, and carries the very same amperage.
Each fuse is going to have a suitable amp rating for those devices it's protecting. The wiring is merely a bit complicated. Our automotive wiring diagrams permit you to relish your new mobile electronics in place of spend countless hours attempting to work out which wires goes to which Ford part or component. Overall the wiring is really straight forward. There's a lot wiring that you've got to tie into your truck's wiring harness, but it's much easier to do than it seems.

Remote distance is left up to 500m. You may use a superior engine ground. The second, that's the most frequently encountered problem, is a weak ground in the computer system. Diagnosing an electrical short can be extremely tough and costly.

Invisible Threat: Everyday Items Linked to Health Risks for Pregnant Women
By Study Finds
Flame-retardant chemicals in everyday items can have a harrowing effect on pregnant women and their babies. The substances in question, organophosphate esters (OPEs), are a common ingredient in furniture, electronics, and baby products to reduce the risk of fire. However, these chemicals, often invisible to the naked eye and nose, can increase the risk of preterm birth and impact a child’s birth weight.
For years, the safety of OPEs has been a subject of debate, but conclusive evidence has been scarce due to limited studies with small sample sizes. The latest research from Rutgers University, conducted under the Environmental Influences on Child Health Outcomes (ECHO) Program, changes the game. It’s the largest study of its kind, analyzing data from over 6,600 pregnant women across 16 cohorts in the U.S.
To understand the gravity of the findings, it’s essential to know what OPEs are and how they sneak into our lives. Imagine a cozy living room with plush sofas, a baby’s crib, and various electronic gadgets. Unbeknownst to many, these items often contain OPEs, used to make them less flammable. The twist is that OPEs don’t stay put; they gradually escape into the air and dust around us. We come into contact with them through touching, breathing, or even eating dust particles that have settled on our food.
“This is another regrettable case where new chemicals were introduced into consumer products without really understanding their health impacts,” says study co-author Emily Barrett, professor and vice chair of the Department of Biostatistics and Epidemiology at the Rutgers School of Public Health and a member of the Rutgers Environmental and Occupational Health Sciences Institute, in a university release. “Knowing now that OPE exposure is associated with adverse birth outcomes, we have to ask ourselves, ‘What are the downstream impacts on children’s health?’”

Rutgers researchers analyzed urine samples from pregnant women, primarily in their second and third trimesters, to measure the presence of nine OPE biomarkers. These markers are essentially fingerprints that indicate a person’s exposure to OPEs. The study then examined how these exposure levels related to two critical aspects of pregnancy: the length of the pregnancy (gestational age) and the baby’s birth weight.
The results were concerning. Certain OPEs displayed a link to higher odds of preterm birth, meaning babies were born before reaching full term (39 to 40 weeks). Particularly notable was the finding that baby girls were more susceptible to some OPEs than boys, showcasing a sex-specific impact.
In addition, some OPEs had an association with increased birth weight relative to gestational age. While this might sound like a good thing, it’s actually a double-edged sword. Babies born larger for their gestational age can face health challenges, including a higher risk of childhood obesity.
Preterm birth and deviations in birth weight are not just numbers on a chart. They can lead to serious health issues for the child, such as developmental delays and long-term health problems. This study suggests that our everyday environment, through the presence of OPEs, might be subtly influencing these vital health outcomes.
Researchers say this is a wake-up call, shedding light on how little we know about the chemicals surrounding us and their potential impact on our most vulnerable. While researchers call for more studies to understand these associations better, this report is an essential step in acknowledging and addressing the hidden risks pregnant women face from everyday items in their homes.
“These substances tend to stay in the body for short periods, usually just hours to days,” notes study leader Deborah Bennett from the University of California-Davis. “Conducting more thorough studies with various urine tests can help us figure out how they might be linked to birth outcomes.”
The study is published in the journal Environmental Health Perspectives.

A medical oxygen concentrator is a device that extracts oxygen from the ambient air and concentrates it to provide a high-purity oxygen stream for medical use. It is commonly used to treat patients with respiratory diseases, such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), asthma, and cystic fibrosis, who require supplemental oxygen therapy to maintain adequate oxygen levels in their bloodstream.
The device works by drawing in air from the surrounding environment, compressing it, and passing it through a series of filters and molecular sieve beds to remove nitrogen and other gases. The purified oxygen is then delivered to the patient through a nasal cannula, mask, or other delivery system.
Medical oxygen concentrators are typically powered by electricity and are available in various sizes, ranging from small portable units that can be carried around by the patient to larger stationary units that are used in hospitals and other medical facilities. They are generally considered safer and more cost-effective than traditional oxygen cylinders or tanks, as they eliminate the need for frequent refills and are less prone to leaks and other safety hazards.
A medical oxygen concentrator is a device that extracts oxygen from the air and delivers it to patients who require supplemental oxygen therapy. Here’s how it works:
Air is drawn into the concentrator through a filter to remove dust and other contaminants.
The air is then compressed using a motor and compressor.
The compressed air is passed through a sieve bed made up of a material called zeolite, which is a type of mineral with a honeycomb-like structure.
The zeolite bed removes the nitrogen and other gases from the air, leaving behind a concentrated stream of oxygen.
The concentrated oxygen is then delivered to the patient through a nasal cannula or mask.
The remaining nitrogen and other gases are released back into the air.
The process of extracting oxygen from the air using a concentrator is highly efficient, and can produce oxygen with a purity of up to 95%. Medical oxygen concentrators are commonly used to treat patients with conditions such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), emphysema, and pneumonia, as well as for those who require oxygen therapy for sleep apnea or during recovery from surgery.
Medical oxygen concentrators are typically used by individuals who have a medical condition that requires supplemental oxygen therapy. This includes people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), cystic fibrosis, pneumonia, asthma, and other respiratory illnesses.
Medical oxygen concentrators are also used in hospitals and other healthcare facilities to provide oxygen therapy to patients who need it. They can be used for both short-term and long-term oxygen therapy, and they are often prescribed by doctors or respiratory therapists.
In general, anyone who requires supplemental oxygen therapy to manage their medical condition may benefit from using a medical oxygen concentrator. However, it is important to consult with a healthcare professional to determine if this is the right treatment option for your specific needs.
Yes, you can use a medical oxygen concentrator at home, but it is important to first consult with a doctor to determine if it is necessary for your medical condition and what settings are appropriate for you.
Medical oxygen concentrators are designed to extract oxygen from the air and deliver it to a patient through a mask or nasal cannula. They are often used to treat conditions such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), emphysema, and other respiratory illnesses.
If you have been prescribed oxygen therapy by a doctor, they can recommend a suitable oxygen concentrator and provide guidance on how to use it properly. It is important to follow the manufacturer’s instructions for operation and maintenance, and to keep the concentrator in a well-ventilated area to prevent the buildup of oxygen and other gases.
It is also important to regularly check the oxygen levels in your blood using a pulse oximeter and report any changes or symptoms to your doctor. They can adjust the oxygen flow rate and other settings as needed to ensure that you are receiving the appropriate amount of oxygen therapy.
A medical oxygen concentrator is a medical device that concentrates oxygen from the air and provides it to patients who require supplemental oxygen therapy due to various medical conditions, such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), pneumonia, or respiratory distress.
The benefits of using a medical oxygen concentrator include:
Improved oxygenation: Oxygen therapy provided by an oxygen concentrator can help improve oxygenation in patients with low blood oxygen levels, leading to improved breathing, reduced shortness of breath, and increased energy levels.
Convenience: Oxygen concentrators are portable and can be used at home, in the hospital, or while traveling. They are easy to use and do not require frequent refills or replacements like oxygen tanks.
Cost-effective: Oxygen concentrators are cost-effective compared to traditional oxygen delivery methods, such as oxygen tanks or liquid oxygen systems. They also require less maintenance and do not have the risk of running out of oxygen.
Better quality of life: Oxygen therapy provided by an oxygen concentrator can help patients with respiratory conditions to lead a better quality of life by improving their ability to perform daily activities and reducing the risk of hospitalization.
Reduced infection risk: Oxygen concentrators do not require the handling and storage of compressed oxygen tanks, which can reduce the risk of infection and contamination.
Overall, a medical oxygen concentrator can provide a reliable, cost-effective, and convenient solution for patients who require supplemental oxygen therapy. However, it is important to consult with a healthcare provider before starting oxygen therapy to determine the appropriate oxygen flow rate and treatment plan.
Choosing the right medical oxygen concentrator requires careful consideration of several factors. Here are some things to keep in mind when making your decision:
Oxygen flow rate: Determine how much oxygen you need per minute. Most concentrators can deliver up to 5 liters per minute (LPM), but some models can go up to 10 LPM. If you require a higher flow rate, you may need a more advanced model or a stationary oxygen concentrator.
Portability: If you need to use your concentrator on the go, consider a portable model. Portable concentrators are smaller and lighter than stationary ones and often come with batteries that allow for several hours of use without being plugged in.
Noise level: Some oxygen concentrators can be quite noisy, which can be problematic if you need to use them in a quiet environment. Look for models that operate quietly, especially if you plan to use your concentrator while sleeping.
Power source: Consider the power source of your oxygen concentrator. Some models require an electrical outlet, while others can be powered by batteries or a car adapter. Choose a model that suits your needs.
Maintenance: Check the maintenance requirements of the concentrator you’re considering. Some models require more maintenance than others, and you’ll want to choose one that is easy to clean and maintain.
Price: Finally, consider the price of the concentrator. Oxygen concentrators can be expensive, and prices vary depending on the features and capabilities of the model. Look for a model that fits your budget without sacrificing the features you need.
Overall, choosing the right medical oxygen concentrator requires careful consideration of your specific needs and circumstances. Consult with your doctor or a medical professional for guidance on which model will work best for you.
There are generally two types of medical oxygen concentrators:
Portable Oxygen Concentrators (POCs) – These are lightweight and small in size, designed to be easily carried around. They usually operate on batteries and are suitable for people who need oxygen therapy while on the move or outside their homes.
Stationary Oxygen Concentrators – These are larger units that are designed to be used at home. They usually have more advanced features and higher flow rates than POCs, making them suitable for people who require higher doses of oxygen or for longer periods.
Within these two broad categories, there are also different types of oxygen concentrators available based on the technology they use:
Pressure Swing Adsorption (PSA) Oxygen Concentrators – These work by separating oxygen from other gases in the air using a molecular sieve. The air is compressed and passed through a filter, where nitrogen and other gases are separated from oxygen. The oxygen is then delivered to the patient through a nasal cannula or mask.
Membrane Oxygen Concentrators – These use a semipermeable membrane to separate oxygen from other gases. Air is passed through a series of hollow fibers, and the oxygen molecules pass through the membrane while other gases are trapped and vented out. These concentrators are typically used for low flow rates.
Combination Oxygen Concentrators – These use a combination of PSA and membrane technology to deliver higher flow rates of oxygen. They are typically used in hospital settings or for patients with more severe respiratory conditions.
It’s important to consult with a healthcare professional to determine which type of oxygen concentrator is best suited for an individual’s specific needs.
The duration for which a medical oxygen concentrator can run depends on various factors such as the oxygen flow rate, the capacity of the concentrator, and the power source used. Typically, medical oxygen concentrators can run continuously for several hours or even days, as long as they are properly maintained and serviced.
Most oxygen concentrators have a flow rate range of 0.5 to 10 liters per minute (LPM). At higher flow rates, the oxygen supply may be depleted more quickly. The capacity of the concentrator is also a crucial factor. A concentrator with a larger capacity can provide oxygen for a longer duration before it needs to be refilled.
Furthermore, the power source used can also affect the duration of operation. Most medical oxygen concentrators require an electrical outlet to function. Some models have a built-in battery that can provide several hours of operation in case of a power outage or when the user needs to use the device away from a power source.
In general, the duration for which a medical oxygen concentrator can run for is determined by the specific model, settings used, and the maintenance routine. It’s important to consult the user manual or contact the manufacturer for more specific information on the expected run time for a particular model.
Regular maintenance is essential to ensure the safe and efficient operation of a medical oxygen concentrator. Here are some of the maintenance tasks that are typically required:
Regular cleaning: The oxygen concentrator should be cleaned regularly to prevent the buildup of dust, dirt, or other contaminants. The filter and intake vents should be cleaned as per the manufacturer’s instructions.
Replace the filters: The oxygen concentrator has several filters that need to be replaced periodically to ensure that the device is functioning correctly. The frequency of filter replacement depends on the specific model, and the manufacturer’s recommendations should be followed.
Check the tubing and connections: The tubing and connections between the concentrator and the oxygen delivery device should be checked regularly for any signs of damage, wear, or leaks.
Inspect the power cord: The power cord should be checked regularly for any signs of damage, and it should be replaced immediately if there are any signs of fraying or cracking.
Check the oxygen purity: The oxygen purity should be checked regularly using an oxygen analyzer. The purity should be maintained within the recommended range, typically 90-95%.
Service and repair: If the oxygen concentrator is not functioning correctly or if there are any signs of wear or damage, it should be serviced or repaired by a qualified technician.
It’s important to follow the manufacturer’s recommendations for maintenance and to keep a record of all maintenance tasks performed. Regular maintenance can help to prolong the life of the oxygen concentrator and ensure that it provides a safe and reliable source of oxygen for the user.

NEW DELHI--It's now officially Uber vs everyone else in the space of technology-led cab aggregation businesses.
Uber's Indian rival Ola and Chinese rival Didi Kuaidi have come together with US-based service Lyft and Singapore’s GrabTaxi to announce a global partnership between the four companies. This will mean a customer with any of these apps will be able to use each other's platform when travelling to another country. The companies said in a statement that together they cover half of the world population.
Together, they have raised more than $7 billion. They also have common backers. Uber's real headache from here on would be to worry about its biggest rivals in disparate markets coming together.
Lyft had raised $100 million from Didi Kuaidi in September and had partnered with the Chinese company. This essentially means, their respective users can hail rides from drivers of the other app while they are traveling to the other country.
This was clearly a step in the battle against Uber, as it is the only player that is operating in 60 countries worldwide.
With the new partnership, these companies now cover nearly all of Southeast Asia, India, China and the United States, reaching nearly 50% of the world’s population.
According to a release announcing the partnership, the companies will collaborate and leverage each other’s technology, local market knowledge, and business resources through this global alliance.
So, now international travelers can access local on-demand rides by using the same application they use at home. Each country will handle mapping, routing and payments through a secure API.
In order to give a stronger rebellion to Uber, Ola acquired its rival Taxiforsure in March 2015.
In India, Ola is one of the most preferred mobile platform for personal transportation, available in 102 cities across the country. At the moment it claims to own 80% of the market share of app led cab hailing businesses in the country and is valued at $5 billion.
“We are excited to partner with Lyft, Didi Kuaidi and GrabTaxi, allowing seamless mobility access across hundreds of cities globally for our combined user base that runs into hundreds of millions,” said Bhavish Aggarwal, Co-founder and CEO of Ola.
Didi is the world’s largest one-stop mobile-based transportation platform providing 7 million rides per day across 360 Chinese cities. Didi holds an 83% market share in private car hailing and a dominant position in all other verticals including taxi hailing, bus, and corporate services.
Valued at a $2.5 billion, while Lyft’s model is slightly different from Uber, it still gives a good competition to it in the Unites States, completing 7 million rides per month in more than 190 cities.
GrabTaxi is operational in Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam, Indonesia and the Philippines, and is also in trying to fend off Uber to become the number one in South East Asia region. With a wide range of options to choose from--taxis, motorcycle taxis, private cars, carpooling and deliveries, GrabTaxi is gaining popularity in South East Asia.
Cheng Wei, CEO of Didi Kuaidi, said, “As Didi consolidates market leadership across all main verticals, we are now focused on applying more refined big-data tools to in-depth product innovation to enhance the user experience.”
Wei said that this will be a "win for the diversity and vitality of the global rideshare industry.”
Lyft co-founder and president John Zimmer is of the opinion that this "isn’t solely an alliance of four companies, but also an opportunity have a greater impact on the future of our cities worldwide.”
“We are pleased to help Lyft, Didi and Ola offer transportation services in Southeast Asia where the significant diversity of language, culture and social practices across the region can be challenging for foreign companies to navigate,” said Anthony Tan, CEO of GrabTaxi.
Tan said this will solve major transportation challenges for the long-term.
While Uber is currently valued at $51 billion, these companies together are equivalent to $25 billion. So, even though there's still a wide gap, it's time for Uber to gear up.
