WORCESTER — Coaches in the ECHL are a lot like the population in general.
When things go badly, they look upward for help. And like the population in general, they don't always get it.
As the Railers prepare for a weekend series at Adirondack, GM-Coach Jamie Russell is dealing with a roster crunch that is a little out of the ordinary. The NHL Islanders have injuries, the AHL Bridgeport Sound Tigers have injuries and callups, and Worcester has injuries, callups and the unexpected retirement of Ryan Hitchcock.
"At the start of the year," Russell said, "we tell our players that we will experience injuries, guys will get called up and our roster is going to be thin at times. But that's not an excuse. We have to dig deep and find a way to win."
However, with Hitchcock gone, the Railers season has turned into an episode of "Gold Rush." Bring in the bulldozers.
The retirement of a young player this early in a season, especially one who has performed well, is "Generally not expected," Russell said.
The move happened suddenly, both in timing and emotionally, Hitchcock said.
"I worked purely on hockey all summer long," he said, "trying to take a step forward with my career, but somewhere after the season started I felt like I was going to the rink and I couldn't give it 100 percent. That's not how I want to approach my profession. That's not something I wanted to bring with me into the (dressing) room, and to my teammates, every day."
Considering that was the case, according to Russell, Hitchcock has made the right decision.
"This is a very demanding profession," the coach said. "Players are asked to put their faces in front of pucks going 100 miles an hour. Players are asked to go into corners and battle with guys who might be bigger and stronger than they are. Players asked to spend hour and hours on bus rides. You can't do it with one foot inside the bucket and one foot out. You're either all the way in, or not in at all."
While the Railers were playing at the DCU Center last weekend Hitchcock went home to New York to assess his future.
"I talked to my parents and they were very supportive," he said. "I had a great time in Worcester. It was really, really fun playing in front of the fans. Hockey has been my whole life, so it will be interesting to take a step back and focus on something else, live a a different lifestyle. I'm looking forward to that."
Hitchcock majored in political science at Yale but is thinking about a career in finance in New York City.
"It's the right time for me to take that step," he said. "I want to be home with my friends and family."
Russell said he had seen no sign that Hitchcock might be contemplating retirement. He had come to camp in good shape and played hard in the season's early games.
"I think you're seeing the difference between a kid who went to Yale and a kid who may only have a high school education," Russell said. "One of them has career options. The other — if he doesn't play hard and make a career in hockey work for him then he's probably facing 40 years in a mill."
Right now, the Railers have no ready replacement for Hitchcock.
"It's a tough one," Russell said. "He was a pretty special player with the type of speed he played with."
The Railers will still have to find a way to win. It's just going to be a little harder now than it was a week ago.

Avocado lovers (a.k.a. everyone) will be excited to know that "long neck" avocados, ranging in size from 18 inches to 3 feet in length, exist and can be purchased by the box.
Photos from the Miami Fruit farm began circulating online recently, which brought attention to these very special avocados. But according to the farmers, these avocados have been in the Miami region for years. Sounds like you better start making up for lost time!
This video posted to the Miami Fruit Instagram account got the attention of over 50,000 viewers when it was posted online, namely due to the fact that the sheer size of the avocado is hard to believe:

The famous long neck avocado 🥑 Now is the time to order the long neck avocado box 📦 at miamifruit.org 🌈 Our last big harvest is this Monday 🌳 Long Neck Avocado Box available until August 14th! 💘 . Like ♥ if this made you hungry 🤤 . What would you do with this avocado? 😋 . If you repost from us please make sure to give credit @miamifruit . Avo girl: @sowsproutgrow . Song: Avocado by Jah9
While these have become known as long neck avocados, Slate points out that these avocados are actually Pura Vida avocados, from a tree known for bearing gourd-like avocados. According to Edelle Schlegel, the co-founder of Miami Fruit, their shape isn't the only thing that's unique. These avocados have a slightly different taste than the ones you're used to picking up at the grocery store.

Pennsylvania lawmakers are getting close to passage of legislation that would adopt many of the recommendations from Gov. Tom Corbett's Marcellus Shale Advisory Commission, including an impact fee on wells and including a measure that would supersede some local drilling ordinances.
Legislation that could provide for state preemption of local gas drilling ordinances won approval from a House committee Wednesday on a party-line vote.
The measure approved 15 to 10 by the Finance Committee would amend the 1984 Oil and Gas Act to supercede local drilling ordinances in areas where the state has an "appropriate" regulation, according to a committee bill summary.
The bill contains Gov. Tom Corbett's plan to give counties with Marcellus wells the option of adopting an impact fee on drillers with 75 percent of the fee revenue going for local uses ranging from road repair to affordable housing and court budgets.
Local governments would have difficulty keeping wells away from residential areas and schools with the bill's preemption provision, said Rep. Phyllis Mundy, D-Kingston, the ranking Democrat on the panel.
"The bill strips from local governments what little power they have to locate wells," she added.
The sponsor, Rep. Brian Ellis, R-Lyndora, said the bill would set state standards for the nearly 50 percent of municipalities that don't have gas ordinances.
The bill provides that each well pay an impact fee up to $40,000 the first year of operation, $30,000 the second year, $20,000 the third year and $10,000 in the fourth through 10th years.
It would implement a number of recommendations concerning environmental protection made last summer by the governor's Marcellus Shale Advisory Commission.*

Is There a Way to Acknowledge America's Progress? (applies more broadly)
2020/01/18 Leave a comment
Good reminder by Andrew Sullivan that many things have changed for the better. And of course, recognizing progress doesn't mean doing more may not be needed, but having a historical perspective helps focus debate and discussion on what should be the more pressing issues:
…Why this sudden ratcheting up of rhetoric? On the right, it's fueled by the kind of absurd hyperbole that Trump uses all the time. On the left, it's Trump himself. His extremism, misogyny, transphobia, and racism have all provoked a sharp turn to the left among Democrats. But, as you can see from the workforce numbers for women, there's little he can actually do to prevent the future from being female. He could tip the Court, which could, in turn, repeal Roe, but that would be a highly unpopular ruling and likely provoke a backlash that could lead to more moderate federal legislation in its place. Marriage equality is settled law, according to the chief justice of the Supreme Court. Gay visibility is ubiquitous. Black unemployment is at record lows; black women are seeing real improvement in their careers and earnings; crime in urban neighborhoods is a fraction of what it was in the 1980s and 1990s. Yes, we have a bigot in the Oval Office — but his ability to influence these broader cultural tides is quite limited.
Some of the rhetorical excess is also about money. Interest groups for various subpopulations have a financial interest in emphasizing oppression in order to keep donations flowing.
But a recent psychological study suggests a simpler explanation. Its core idea is what you might call "oppression creep" or, more neutrally, "prevalence-induced concept change." The more progress we observe, the greater the remaining injustices appear. We seem incapable of keeping a concept stable over time when the prevalence of that concept declines. In a fascinating experiment, participants were provided with a chart containing a thousand dots that ranged along a spectrum from very blue to very purple and were asked to go through and identify all the blue dots. The study group was then broken in two. One subgroup was shown a new chart with the same balance of purple and blue dots as the first one and asked to repeat the task. Not surprisingly, they generally found the same number of blue dots as they did on the first chart. A second subgroup was shown a new chart with fewer blue dots and more purple dots. In this group, participants started marking dots as blue that they had marked as purple on the first chart. "In other words, when the prevalence of blue dots decreased, participants' concept of blue expanded to include dots that it had previously excluded."
We see relatively, not absolutely. We change our standards all the time, depending on context. As part of the study, the psychologists ran another experiment showing participants a range of threatening and nonthreatening faces and asking them to identify which was which. Next, participants were split into two groups and asked to repeat the exercise. The first subgroup was shown the same ratio of threatening and nonthreatening faces as in the initial round; subgroup two was shown many fewer threatening faces. Sure enough, the second group adjusted by seeing faces they once thought of as nonthreatening as threatening. The conclusion:
When blue dots became rare, purple dots began to look blue; when threatening faces became rare, neutral faces began to appear threatening … This happened even when the change in the prevalence of instances was abrupt, even when participants were explicitly told that the prevalence of instances would change, and even when participants were instructed and paid to ignore these changes.
We seem to be wired to assume a given threat remains just as menacing even when its actual prevalence has declined:
Our studies suggest that even well-meaning agents may sometimes fail to recognize the success of their own efforts, simply because they view each new instance in the decreasingly problematic context that they themselves have brought about. Although modern societies have made extraordinary progress in solving a wide range of social problems, from poverty and illiteracy to violence and infant mortality, the majority of people believe that the world is getting worse. The fact that concepts grow larger when their instances grow smaller may be one source of that pessimism.
This study may help explain why, in the midst of tremendous gains for gays, women, and racial minorities, we still insist more than ever that we live in a patriarchal, misogynist, white supremacist, homophobic era. We constantly adjust our view of our fast-changing world to ensure we don't believe it has changed at all! Maybe this is simply another way of describing each generation's shifting of the goalposts. Or maybe it's because we've made so much progress that the injustice that remains appears more intolerable, rather than less. Or maybe, as these psychologists suggest, "holding concepts constant may be an evolutionarily recent requirement that the brain's standard computational mechanisms are ill equipped to meet."
But whatever the cause, the result is that we steadfastly refuse to accept the fact of progress, in a cycle of eternal frustration at what injustices will always remain. We never seem to be able to say: "Okay, we're done now, we've got this, politics has done all it reasonably could, now let's move on with our lives." We can only ever say: "It's worse than ever!" And feel it in our bones.

MARTINSVILLE, VA – Hooker Furniture reported net sales of $46 million and a net loss of $463,000 for its fiscal 2010 second quarter that ended Aug. 2.
Net sales of the quarter decreased $18.7 million or 28.9% compared to $64.6 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2009.
"This quarter's results reflect a continuation of the very challenging retail environment we've seen since last fall," said Paul Toms Jr., chairman, CEO and president of Hooker.
"Historically, the May-June-July time frame is the weakest for furniture sales, compounded by the most severe economic downturn since the 1930s. However, our incoming order rates in August increased to the highest level in 10 months and we are seeing both optimism and traffic improve at retail as fall approaches.
"In order to return to profitability, we are sharply focused on further reducing costs and growing sales," Toms added. "We continue to lower sales levels by reducing the cost structure of the business. In addition to lowering expenses in warehousing and distribution through consolidation of warehouse space and reduced work hours, we plan to close our distribution center in Carson, CA, by the end of September. Closing the California warehouse should result in annualized savings of approximately $1.2 million beginning in October."

While the start of the Community Hockey season has been delayed due to the COVID 19 situation. Several of the 32 Associations around the country got underway with competitive play over the past weekend.
Counties Manukau Hockey have opened their facilities over the past two weeks to allow Schools, Clubs and Juniors to commence training under strict health protocols. The facility has been a hive of activity with the Community eager to get back onto the turf after the lengthy delay.
Over the past weekend, the Association played host to a Hockey Fives festival for all their Senior Club teams. This opportunity allowed the Community to test out the newly relayed turf as well as tune-up their skills ahead of the opening weekend of Competition which is starting on Friday, June 12th.
Counties Manukau Hockey has three full-time employees on staff with former Vantage Black Stick Tina Bell-Kake heading the team as the Associations General Manager. She is supported by her husband and former Black Stick Mark Kake in the Community and Performance Coach Space and Marie Arthur-Worsop in the role of Grassroots Development. The team of three have been busy during the COVID situation, including taking on several different functions such as building the fast five boards, preparing the facilities for training and several other tasks. The team has come together to ensure that Community Hockey was able to start as soon after the lockdown as safe and possible.
Q – When is Community Hockey starting?
A – We are starting both Junior and Senior Club hockey this coming weekend (June 12th). We initially planned on starting Senior Hockey the previous weekend. However, we felt it was necessary to give the clubs more time to get their teams sorted after the lengthy delay. We are expecting to have a full club season and will be looking to run the season through to the end of September.
Q – How have the Community been responding to hygiene practices?
A – We have been pleased with how the Community has been getting stuck in and getting on with things. We don't have to remind too many people, and everyone understands the importance of what is happening. It has been long hours for the team, but the support we have received from the Community has been pleasing.
Q – What is the feeling around the Community?
A – It seems like our Community is excited to get back onto the pitch and get started again. We thought that we might have a drop off in numbers and potentially we may do. However, we have the same amount of teams entered; it just might be that these teams have smaller numbers in their squads.
Q – You have been introducing Hockey Fives in your Community. What is the rationale behind that?
A – Before the COVID 19 situation, we were introducing Hockey Fives into our Junior Space. While it took some initial selling to our Community, we feel like we have reached a good compromise which will see U13 players take part in some Hockey Fives for the season as well as some full field 11 aside.
This weekend's Hockey Fives festival was an excellent opportunity to introduce our parents to this adapted version of our sport, and the feedback that we have received is that some of our Division Teams would love to play this for the full season.
Q – What are the benefits of Hockey Fives for Skill Development?
A – Indoor Hockey is a very similar game and something that we used to play. It's quick, and there is a lot of exciting action. The modified version allows for all players to get more touches on the ball and become more involved in the games. Players learn different angles and new strategies for passing as they need to adapt to the changing conditions. Goalkeepers play a much more pivotal role in this version, and we have seen that over this past weekend. Scores tend to be a bit higher, and this makes for an exhilarating version of hockey. We know that we have plenty of room to refine the rules and scoring more. We have had great feedback from the Community about the modified version this weekend. We are hoping to run this at different times throughout the year as well as for Summer Hockey in 2020.
We are going to be profiling different Associations around the country this year as we look to profile the beating heart of our sport which is our Community Hockey.


text: This summer, I was a teen intern at the Central Park Zoo. I have been doing programs at the Zoo ever since I was in Lower School and always loved seeing animals from different parts of the world. All throughout my three weeks at the zoo, we made enrichment for animals. Enrichment encourages an animal's natural behavior. The animals are interested in the enrichment and examine it. Some enrichment can be found in food form or involve a clever way to hide food. We made burlap braids for the red pandas and wove bamboo into it. We also got long pieces of bamboo and rubbed mint and basil from the Zoo's browse garden for the grizzly bears. Besides making enrichment, we had an hour a day to assist zoo keepers. We were each assigned two of the four zones at the Zoo (Polar and Tropic or Temperate and Children's Zoo). I spent the first half of the teen internship in the Polar Zone doing fish breakout (weighing capelin and herring), scrubbing poop off penguin rocks, cleaning the fridge covered in fish remnants, and cleaning sock filters. We couldn't take any photos because it is "behind the scenes," where the general public doesn't go. In the Tropic Zone, we cleaned hedgehog cages, chuckwalla enclosures, and helped the keepers feed the birds. On the last few days of the internship, we worked on our final project, aiming to educate the Zoo's visitors about the Wildlife Conservation Society's new campaign to protect the NY Harbor, Blue York. We were split up into groups, and mine got people to write pledges on dry erase boards and then take a picture with it (Ex: I pledge to clean up my trash at the beach). Others got people to participate in trivia and had people sign a thank you card for the local fisherman who kindly agreed to stop fishing in an area with coral reef. I miss working with with the animals so much and really love the idea of educating the public about animals at zoos, making them fall in love with the them and support conservation efforts.

Vocalist Jeff Scott Soto (TALISMAN, ex-YNGWIE MALMSTEEN) has parted ways with the drummer from his solo band, Alex Papa.
"Alex has decided to pursue other avenues in his career," Jeff said in a statement. "I and the rest of the band support his decisions and wish him nothing but every success in his future endeavors.
"I felt it important to make this news known to all whom he befriended over the last two years of our involvement so that there is no unexpected disappointment when he is not with us for my upcoming events.
"I'm working with two separate drummers for my next solo album, 'Lost In The Translation', and for live dates, including my upcoming mini-tour of the U.K.
"Glen Sobel (IMPELLITTERI, BEAUTIFUL CREATURES) will be handling the 'skins' duties for the album and a native of Buffalo, NY native, Dave Dzialak (a close friend from Howie's [Simon, guitar] hometown), will join us for the up coming live dates. Both are extremely talented and will help us bring a whole new dynamic to the recordings and live shows.
"I am very excited with the additions of these guys on my next efforts and we are very much looking forward to presenting you with the new goods!!"
As previously reported, Soto recently formed a brand-new, as-yet-unnamed project with Neal Schon and Deen Castronovo (both of JOURNEY) and Marco Mendoza (WHITESNAKE, BLUE MURDER, THIN LIZZY). The group cut six demo songs in San Francisco at Jonathan Cain's studios and are continuing to write material for their debut album, tentatively due later in the year.

The determining factor in maintaining the firmness and elasticity of the skin is collagen, and hyaluronic acid best promotes its development. For our body, hyaluronic acid is also important as water or blood.This is the most effective tool against facial wrinkles at a young age, and against deep wrinkles in Mature age.
With time under the influence of age differences and environmental conditions, the amount of this acid in the body is significantly reduced, which entails changes in the skin in not better. Hyaluronic acid is used as injections or simply applied to the skin surface part of other cosmetics.
Modern cosmetics manufacturers offer a wide range of gels, creams or serums with hyaluronic acid for topical use. Serum contain more acid, it penetrates deeper into skin layers and therefore the most effective. It is clear that this use of acid is not always effective or effect occurs slowly and briefly. But cream with hyaluronic acid content is a powerful moisturizer that helps to maintain a healthy appearance and color of the skin, improving its overall condition.
The most effective way are injections. This procedure is called hyaluronic mesoterapia face, and feature it almost all beauty salons. Cosmetologist introduces hyaluronic acid under the skin in the area of wrinkles. Acid retains moisture in the skin, smoothes the contours of the face. Thus, filling of wrinkles. The entire procedure takes no more than 30 minutes and the effect lasts from 6 to 12 months depending on the type of wrinkles. During the injection there is a risk of swelling or bruising at the injection sites, but do not be afraid. As a rule, all swelling disappear within a few days. To correct deeper wrinkles procedure must be repeated in about a week.

Recently gaining popularity special facial mask with hyaluronic acid. They have anti-aging and firming effect, provide nourishment to the cells and increase blood circulation. These masks contain a special low-molecular hyaluronic acid, which contributes to its deep penetration into the skin layers and retention there is moisture and not just on its surface. Hyaluronic acid is completely safe and out of the body without a trace, which allows its use in cosmetic procedures as often as necessary.

Credit: Reuters/Tyrone Siu ZHONGSHAN China/TOKYO (Reuters) - A strike at a Honda Motor parts supplier in southern China could augur broader demands across China's vast manufacturing belt as workers seek a bigger piece of the nation's growing economic wealth. World | China About 100 workers wearing white overalls and blue caps milled about the factory grounds of the Honda Lock plant, a supplier of locks to Honda's car-making operations in China, on Monday after many of the 1,500 workers walked off the job on Wednesday. The standoff in the gritty factory town of Xiaolan appeared calm, but behind the scenes, holdout strikers spoke of intimidation by officials, surveillance of phone calls and Internet chatrooms, along with a campaign to hire replacements. Police tracked reporters outside the factory and videotaped proceedings as factory workers streamed out of the factory at the end of the day. Many seemed nervous and wouldn't talk, glancing in the direction of police walking alongside and on motorbikes. "I can't talk to you any more, we are under great pressure," said one. "We will likely go back to work and see what happens." The strike is the latest in a series to hit factories around southern China's Pearl River Delta and a few other regions by workers demanding a greater piece of China's growing economic pie. The outburst of strikes continues a pattern of recent years that took a pause at the height of the global financial crisis, said Liu Kaiming, executive director of the Institute of Contemporary Observation, a privately funded group in Shenzhen that focuses on labor issues. "We've already seen a growing number of strikes in previous years, especially in 2007 and 2008, when the new labor contract law was introduced, and then there was a gap in 2009, but now we're seeing the trend resume," Liu said. "The Honda strike is an extension of that... It also shows that there is a trend that is being driven by a new generation of migrant workers. They are more willing to speak out about their grievances, and are less tolerant of long hours and tough conditions than the older generation." The strike at Honda Lock was the third to hit a Honda parts supplier in China in the last few weeks. The other two strikes, at suppliers producing transmissions and exhausts, were settled after workers received pay increases. Workers at Honda Lock said a senior parliamentary official had tried mediating at the factory on Monday, promising workers a decision on wages would be made on Friday as long as they returned to work before then. Some said that they would, while others pledged to continue the strike. So far, management at Honda Lock has offered a pay increase of 100 yuan ($15) a month in additional wages and another 100 yuan in allowances, but many workers say that isn't enough in difficult talks that have done little to narrow differences. Job adverts posted by Honda Lock near the factory offered new recruits an all-inclusive pay package of "over 2,000 yuan" -- around twice the current level and more than the 1,600 yuan demanded by strikers. A shaven-headed migrant worker reading the notice, however, scoffed: "It's impossible. Why would the workers be on strike if wages are already so high?" Honda had previously said production at the Honda Lock plant in the city of Zhongshan re-started on Saturday after three days of stoppage. Some production was running on Monday, but only partially as a number of holdouts had sabotaged operations, said Honda Lock spokesman Hirotoshi Sato. Guangqi Honda, one of Honda's China car-making joint ventures, was closed on Monday for a public holiday that would run through to Wednesday, said Honda spokeswoman Akemi Ando. Production at Guangqi Honda's two carmaking plants was disrupted last week because of strikes at the other two parts suppliers. "Generally, working conditions at car assembly plants are much better than in other industries, whether we're talking about wages or general treatment," said Wen Xiaoyi, a researcher at the China Institute of Industrial Relations in Beijing. "But conditions at parts suppliers tend to be worse. The reason is car assembly requires mostly skilled workers with some specialized training, but car parts manufacturing is less sophisticated, so workers are less educated and their pay is lower."

Pugwash is a mini-submarine who travels the world with Stewiacke taking underwater photos while Stewiacke explores the coasts.
Pugwash dreams of being a brave explorer and photographing the ocean's depths herself, but now has to overcome her fears of foghorns and lighthouses. Pugwash also loves to wander off and explore things. Her name means (Deep Water). Pugwash is also a busy, bustling little mini-sub, who enjoys hard work and hardly grumbles. Although susceptible at times, she's a kind mini-sub and always proves her worth by being a happy little worker.
Pugwash made several appearances in the series. Theodore And The Hunt For Northumberland, Pugwash Is Gone!, and Theodore's Big Decision.
- Originally, she was going to be called Sophie.
- A spin-off to Theodore Tugboat, which would be called Pugwash's Underwater Adventures, was never made.
- Pugwash's model was supposed to be on display at the Maritime Museum of the Atlantic.
- Pugwash shares her name with the fishing and salt mining village of Pugwash, Nova Scotia, located on the Northumberland Strait at the mouth of the Pugwash River. The village takes its name from the word "pagwe'ak", a native Mi'kmaq word meaning "deep water".

Concept: Aromatic hydrocarbon
Large-scale deposition of weathered oil in the Gulf of Mexico following a deep-water oil spill
- Environmental pollution (Barking, Essex : 1987)
- Published over 3 years ago
- Discuss
The blowout of the Deepwater Horizon (DWH) drilling rig in 2010 released an unprecedented amount of oil at depth (1,500 m) into the Gulf of Mexico (GoM). Sedimentary geochemical data from an extensive area (∼194,000 km(2)) was used to characterize the amount, chemical signature, distribution, and extent of the DWH oil deposited on the seafloor in 2010-2011 from coastal to deep-sea areas in the GoM. The analysis of numerous hydrocarbon compounds (N = 158) and sediment cores (N = 2,613) suggests that, 1.9 ± 0.9 × 10(4) metric tons of hydrocarbons (>C9 saturated and aromatic fractions) were deposited in 56% of the studied area, containing 21± 10% (up to 47%) of the total amount of oil discharged and not recovered from the DWH spill. Examination of the spatial trends and chemical diagnostic ratios indicate large deposition of weathered DWH oil in coastal and deep-sea areas and negligible deposition on the continental shelf (behaving as a transition zone in the northern GoM). The large-scale analysis of deposited hydrocarbons following the DWH spill helps understanding the possible long-term fate of the released oil in 2010, including sedimentary transformation processes, redistribution of deposited hydrocarbons, and persistence in the environment as recycled petrocarbon.
Ancient water bottle use and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) exposure among California Indians: a prehistoric health risk assessment
- Environmental health : a global access science source
- Published about 3 years ago
- Discuss
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are the main toxic compounds in natural bitumen, a fossil material used by modern and ancient societies around the world. The adverse health effects of PAHs on modern humans are well established, but their health impacts on past populations are unclear. It has previously been suggested that a prehistoric health decline among the native people living on the California Channel Islands may have been related to PAH exposure. Here, we assess the potential health risks of PAH exposure from the use and manufacture of bitumen-coated water bottles by ancient California Indian societies.
The relationship between mercury and autism: A comprehensive review and discussion
- Journal of trace elements in medicine and biology : organ of the Society for Minerals and Trace Elements (GMS)
- Published about 4 years ago
- Discuss
The brain pathology in autism spectrum disorders (ASD) indicates marked and ongoing inflammatory reactivity with concomitant neuronal damage. These findings are suggestive of neuronal insult as a result of external factors, rather than some type of developmental mishap. Various xenobiotics have been suggested as possible causes of this pathology. In a recent review, the top ten environmental compounds suspected of causing autism and learning disabilities were listed and they included: lead, methyl-mercury, polychorinated biphenyls, organophosphate pesticides, organochlorine pesticides, endocrine disruptors, automotive exhaust, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, polybrominated diphenyl ethers, and perfluorinated compounds. This current review, however, will focus specifically on mercury exposure and ASD by conducting a comprehensive literature search of original studies in humans that examine the potential relationship between mercury and ASD, categorizing, summarizing, and discussing the published research that addresses this topic. This review found 91 studies that examine the potential relationship between mercury and ASD from 1999 to February 2016. Of these studies, the vast majority (74%) suggest that mercury is a risk factor for ASD, revealing both direct and indirect effects. The preponderance of the evidence indicates that mercury exposure is causal and/or contributory in ASD.
Sustained deposition of contaminants from the Deepwater Horizon spill
- Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America
- Published over 4 years ago
- Discuss
The 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil spill resulted in 1.6-2.6 × 10(10) grams of petrocarbon accumulation on the seafloor. Data from a deep sediment trap, deployed 7.4 km SW of the well between August 2010 and October 2011, disclose that the sinking of spill-associated substances, mediated by marine particles, especially phytoplankton, continued at least 5 mo following the capping of the well. In August/September 2010, an exceptionally large diatom bloom sedimentation event coincided with elevated sinking rates of oil-derived hydrocarbons, black carbon, and two key components of drilling mud, barium and olefins. Barium remained in the water column for months and even entered pelagic food webs. Both saturated and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon source indicators corroborate a predominant contribution of crude oil to the sinking hydrocarbons. Cosedimentation with diatoms accumulated contaminants that were dispersed in the water column and transported them downward, where they were concentrated into the upper centimeters of the seafloor, potentially leading to sustained impact on benthic ecosystems.
Early-life cockroach allergen and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon exposures predict cockroach sensitization among inner-city children
- The Journal of allergy and clinical immunology
- Published over 7 years ago
- Discuss
BACKGROUND: Sensitization to cockroach is one of the strongest identified risk factors for greater asthma morbidity in low-income urban communities; however, the timing of exposures relevant to the development of sensitization has not been elucidated fully. Furthermore, exposure to combustion byproducts, including polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), can augment the development of allergic sensitization. OBJECTIVE: We sought to test the hypotheses that domestic cockroach allergen measured prenatally would predict cockroach sensitization in early childhood and that this association would be greater for children exposed to higher PAH concentrations. METHODS: Dominican and African American pregnant women living in New York City were enrolled. In the third trimester expectant mothers wore personal air samplers for measurement of 8 nonvolatile PAHs and the semivolatile PAH pyrene, and dust was collected from homes for allergen measurement. Glutathione-S-transferase μ 1 (GSTM1) gene polymorphisms were measured in children. Allergen-specific IgE levels were measured from the children at ages 2, 3, 5, and 7 years. RESULTS: Bla g 2 in prenatal kitchen dust predicted cockroach sensitization at the ages of 5 to 7 years (adjusted relative risk [RR], 1.15; P = .001; n = 349). The association was observed only among children with greater than (RR, 1.22; P = .001) but not less than (RR, 1.07; P = .24) the median sum of 8 nonvolatile PAH levels. The association was most pronounced among children with higher PAH levels and null for the GSTM1 gene (RR, 1.54; P = .001). CONCLUSIONS: Prenatal exposure to cockroach allergen was associated with a greater risk of allergic sensitization. This risk was increased by exposure to nonvolatile PAHs, with children null for the GSTM1 mutation particularly vulnerable.
Cancer Risk from Incidental Ingestion Exposures to PAHs Associated with Coal-Tar-Sealed Pavement.
- Environmental science & technology
- Published almost 8 years ago
- Discuss
Recent studies documented significantly higher concentrations of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in settled house dust in living spaces adjacent to parking lots sealed with coal-tar-based products, as well as in nearby soil. To date, no studies have examined the potential human health effects of PAHs from these products in dust and soil. Here we present the results of an analysis of potential cancer risk associated with incidental ingestion exposures to PAHs in settings near coal-tar-sealed pavement. Exposures to benzo[a]pyrene equivalents were characterized across five scenarios. Deterministic and probabilistic methods were used to calculate excess lifetime cancer risk arising from exposures to PAHs in house dust, soil, and both media. The central tendency estimate of excess cancer risk resulting from lifetime exposures to soil and dust via non-dietary ingestion in these settings exceeded 1 * 10-4 in both deterministic and probabilistic estimates. Soil was the primary driver of risk, but according to probabilistic calculations, reasonable maximum exposure to affected house dust in the first 6 years of life was sufficient to generate risk in excess of 1 * 10-4. Our results indicate that the presence of coal-tar-based pavement sealants is associated with significant increases in estimated excess lifetime cancer risk for nearby residents. Much of this calculated excess risk arises from exposures to PAHs in childhood (i.e., ages 0-6).
Exposure to cooking oil fumes and oxidative damages: a longitudinal study in Chinese military cooks
- Journal of exposure science & environmental epidemiology
- Published about 8 years ago
- Discuss
Cooking oil fumes (COF) contain polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), heterocyclic aromatic amines, benzene, and formaldehyde, which may cause oxidative damages to DNA and lipids. We assessed the relations between exposure to COF and subsequent oxidative DNA damage and lipid peroxidation among military cooks and office-based soldiers. The study population, including 61 Taiwanese male military cooks and a reference group of 37 office soldiers, collected urine samples pre-shift of the first weekday and post-shift of the fifth workday. We measured airborne particulate PAHs in military kitchens and offices and concentrations of urinary 1-OHP, a biomarker of PAH exposure, urinary 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OHdG), a biomarkers of oxidative DNA damage, and urinary isoprostane (Isop). Airborne particulate PAHs levels in kitchens significantly exceeded those in office areas. The concentrations of urinary 1-OHP among military cooks increased significantly after 5 days of exposure to COF. Using generalized estimating equation analysis adjusting for confounding, a change in log(8-OHdG) and log(Isop) were statistically significantly related to a unit change in log(1-OHP) (regression coefficient (β), β=0.06, 95% CI 0.001-0.12) and (β=0.07, 95% CI 0.001-0.13), respectively. Exposure to PAHs, or other compounds in cooking oil fumes, may cause both oxidative DNA damage and lipid peroxidation.
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in some grounded coffee brands

Potentially toxic 16 priority polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) were determined in four brands of grounded coffee. Four to 13 PAHs were detected. Concentrations of total PAHs in different brands of coffee samples were in the range of 831.7-1,589.7 μg/kg. Benzo[a]pyrene (2A: probable human carcinogen) was found in Nescafe Premium whereas naphthalene (2B: possible human carcinogen) was found in all the samples of coffee.
Determination of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in soil samples using flotation-assisted homogeneous liquid-liquid microextraction.
- Journal of chromatography. A
- Published almost 8 years ago
- Discuss
In this study, flotation-assisted homogeneous liquid-liquid microextraction (FA-HLLME) was developed as a fast, simple, and efficient method for extraction of four polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in soil samples followed by gas chromatography-flame ionization detector (GC-FID) analysis. A special home-made extraction cell was designed to facilitate collection of the low-density extraction solvent without a need for centrifugation. In this method, PAHs were extracted from soil samples into methanol and water (1:1, v/v) using ultrasound in two steps followed by filtration as a clean-up step. The filtrate was added into the home-made extraction cell contained mixture of 1.0mL methanol (homogenous solvent) and 150.0μL toluene (extraction solvent). Using N(2) flotation, the dispersed extraction solvent was transferred to the surface of the mixture and was collected by means of a micro-syringe. Then, 2μL of the collected organic solvent was injected into the GC-FID for subsequent analysis. Under optimal conditions, linearity of the method was in the range of 40-1000μgkg(-1) soil (dry weight). The relative standard deviations in real samples varied from 5.9 to 15.2% (n=4). The proposed method was successfully applied to analyze the target PAHs in soil samples, and satisfactory results were obtained.
