On a a short June night my Catalina Sky Survey teammate Greg Leonard was observing with our 60 inch telescope on Mt. Lemmon, Arizona in the constellation of Ursa Major when a relatively bright fast moving point of light appeared in a set of his images. Even though on its current path Greg's discovery, 2025 MM89, has virtually no chance of impacting our home planet asteroid hunters will continue to track it to make sure it doesn't become a threat as it passes other objects in space.

https://jo.my/aedhwt Respiratory Protection & Airborne Hazards: When Respirators Are Required When we talk about air quality in a warehouse, most people think about temperature or maybe stale air. But there's a lot more to it. Dust from forklifts and pallets. Vapors from cleaning agents. Welding fumes. Even something as simple as packaging materials can throw airborne particles into the air. That's where respiratory protection comes in. But it's not about slapping on a mask and calling it a day. A solid Safety Culture requires us to understand when a respirator is actually needed and why it matters. Respirators aren't your first line of defense. They're your last. You'll see ventilation systems, dust collectors, and exhaust fans in most facilities for a reason. Those are engineering controls, and they always come first. Respirators are only required when those controls don't reduce airborne hazards to a safe level. Here are a few ways to stay sharp when dealing with respiratory hazards: Please start with the hazard itself.  Not all airborne particles are created equal. Dust might just be annoying, but fumes from certain chemicals or fine particulates from grinding operations can cause permanent lung damage over time. You have to know what you're dealing with before deciding what protection to use. Watch the task, not just the area. Just because the air in your general area feels fine doesn't mean you're in the clear. Specific tasks, such as grinding or working in close quarters with chemicals, can quickly spike your exposure. If the task has a history of airborne risks, don't take chances. Understand the difference between nuisance and danger. Not every odor or puff of dust is dangerous, but that doesn't mean it's safe. Nuisance dust might irritate your throat. Hazardous particles can scar your lungs. If you're not sure which one you're dealing with, speak up. Check the signage. Then check again. Hazard communication isn't just paperwork. It shows up on walls, doors, and containers. Pay attention to posted signs, especially anything with a respirator symbol or hazard warning. If you see it, there's a reason it's there. Only use respiratory PPE that fits and is approved. No exceptions. Respirators must fit properly, be tested, and be designed for the specific hazard. That bandana around your face won't cut it. And using the wrong type of filter? You might as well be breathing it in unprotected. Respiratory protection isn't just about comfort. It's about long-term health. Inhalation hazards build up silently over time. Once the damage is done, there's no reset button. Protecting your lungs should be as automatic as checking your footing or lifting with your legs. Warehouse air can appear clean yet still be hazardous. That's why awareness, controls, and the correct PPE work together to keep you safe. Know when a respirator is required and take that step seriously. Thank you for being part of another episode of Warehouse Safety Tips. Until we meet next time—have a great week, and STAY SAFE! #Safety #SafetyCulture #RespiratoryProtection #AirQuality #PPE #AirborneHazards #SafetyFirst #IndustrialSafety

Episode 2699: Dr. Dylan Selterman examines whether women with more male friends than female friends enjoy better mental health, finding no direct evidence to support that idea. Research reveals both the benefits and challenges of cross-sex friendships, from unique perspectives and support to risks like co-rumination, social stigma, and higher antisocial behavior in certain contexts. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.luvze.com/cross-sex-friendships-hazardous-to-your-mental-health/ Quotes to ponder: "It is possible then that females are simply more inclined to co-ruminate in a variety of relationships, whereas males may only significantly increase their co-ruminating behaviors when their closest confidant is a female friend." "Some research suggests that when women have a higher proportion of male friends, this can be problematic, although it is not clear that having lots of male friends causes any psychological dysfunction in females." "Even expression and communication may have a sweet spot in which too much causes more pain." Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

In this episode of the Pre-hospital Care Podcast, we delve into the origins and current structure of the Hazardous Area Response Team (HART), a specialist unit within UK pre-hospital care. We explore why the HART model was specifically chosen in the UK and how it compares to Urban Search and Rescue (USAR) counterparts internationally. The conversation offers insights into the unique day-to-day role of a HART team member and how the team integrates with the wider emergency medical services, particularly during high-risk or complex incidents.We also reflect on the evolution of HART, how the model has grown from its early foundations into a sophisticated and responsive service that plays a crucial role in emergency preparedness and response. The episode explores the learning mechanisms and governance structures built into HART to ensure continuous development and safe practice.Additionally, we examine how change management and cultural integration have been essential to embedding HART within the wider healthcare and emergency response ecosystem. This includes addressing the 'hearts and minds' aspect, how to build trust, acceptance, and collaboration between specialist teams and frontline responders to ensure effective teamwork and optimal patient care.Whether you're familiar with HART or new to the concept, this episode offers a deep dive into one of the UK's most technically demanding emergency response capabilities and how it continues to shape the landscape of pre-hospital care.This episode is sponsored by PAX: The gold standard in emergency response bags.When you're working under pressure, your kit needs to be dependable, tough, and intuitive.

This week we are heading to my hometown of Southport to discuss Dr Robert Clements. A man who saw marriage as a means of improving his bank balance, and who was willing to 'divest' himself of his wife as soon as the money ran out.While you would think that this would arouse suspicion, Dr Clements was able to point to the death certificates, which stated that his wives just kept dying of obscure medical conditions, as proof that he was just unlucky in love... Of course he did sign those death certificates himself, but that is beside the point.So join us for a tale of greed, abuse of power and murder most foul from the first half of the 20th century.Guest Host (and Southport resident): Jack HeathcoteJack also has a book out: INKLING, which can be found here: https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/4335276473/inkling-collectors-1st-edition-bundle Hosted on Acast.

Show Notes for The Fortified Life Podcast with Jason DavisEpisode 194: Ricky Brown Author of The Five Hazardous Attitudes: Ways to Win the War WithinEpisode Title:Winning the War Within: Confronting the Five Hazardous Attitudes with Ricky BrownPodcast Host: Jason Davis a.k.a. Mr. FortifySpecial Guest: Ricky Brown – Author, Speaker, Pastor, and Founder of Speak Life Inc.Episode Overview: In this powerful episode of The Fortified Life Podcast, host Jason Davis welcomes Ricky Brown, a dynamic communicator, Air Force veteran, commercial pilot, and author of the transformative book The Five Hazardous Attitudes: Ways to Win the War Within. Together, they delve deeply into the attitudes that silently undermine our personal, professional, and spiritual lives—and how to overcome them with wisdom, awareness, and faith.Key Themes and Takeaways:God's Divine Alignment:Jason and Ricky discuss how divine connections led to their friendship and the purpose behind their missions to integrate faith with leadership in business and ministry.Military Insights that Transform Mindsets:Ricky draws on his service in the U.S. Air Force and experience as a commercial pilot to introduce five hazardous attitudes identified by the FAA—attitudes that cause real-life aviation accidents and parallel how people crash emotionally, professionally, or spiritually.The Five Hazardous Attitudes Explained:Invulnerability – "It won't happen to me":Leads to risky decisions and dangerous overconfidence. Ricky shares a cautionary tale of a man who lost $48M due to this very mindset.Macho – "I can do it":Stemming from pride and the need to prove oneself, this attitude can lead to overreaching and taking unwise risks, even in high-stakes environments such as medicine and aviation.Impulsivity – "Do something!":Acting without thinking can be catastrophic. Ricky shares examples from flight simulation training where impulsive actions lead to disastrous results.Anti-authority – "Don't tell me what to do":Rooted in unresolved trauma and mistrust, this attitude can destroy team dynamics and leadership effectiveness if not brought under control.Resignation – "What's the use?":Often triggered before a breakthrough, resignation causes people to quit too soon. Ricky and Jason discuss how spiritual resilience is key to enduring through tough seasons.Faith + Leadership = Transformation:Ricky emphasizes that these attitudes are not just about career development but about spiritual transformation. Whether in business, ministry, or family life, unchecked attitudes can derail destiny.Application in Real Life:From Fortune 500 companies to local churches, Ricky shares how his book and workshops are helping leaders and teams identify and confront their internal blind spots before they become public failures.About the Guest:Ricky Brown is the president and founder of Speak Life Inc., a compelling speaker, former commercial pilot, and military veteran. His unique background and passion for storytelling make his message both practical and spiritually grounded. He speaks nationally across various sectors, including corporations, healthcare, churches, and film studios. His book The Five Hazardous Attitudes is not just a leadership tool—it's a roadmap to personal and organizational transformation.Get the Book:The Five Hazardous Attitudes: Ways to Win the War Within is available now on:AmazonAudibleRickyBrown.orgConnect with Ricky Brown:

A new MP3 sermon from Grace Audio Treasures is now available on SermonAudio with the following details: Title: A hazardous game! Subtitle: Puritan Devotional Speaker: C. H. Spurgeon Broadcaster: Grace Audio Treasures Event: Devotional Date: 7/3/2025 Bible: Psalm 19:13; 1 Thessalonians 5:22 Length: 1 min.

A hazardous game! (Charles Spurgeon, "Flowers from a Puritan's Garden" 1883) 1 Thessalonians 5:22, "Avoid every kind of evil!" "If we play around the viper's hole--it is no wonder that we are bitten!" An old proverb advises us not to play with sharp-edged tools, lest we cut our fingers. It is a sin to trifle with sin! If we must play, we had better find harmless toys! That evil which caused Christ a bloody death, is no fit theme for any man's sport. Playing with wickedness is a hazardous game! Sooner or later, we will pluck the lion of sin by the beard, and we shall be torn in pieces! This is true of indulgence in strong drink: "Do not gaze at wine when it is red, when it sparkles in the cup, when it goes down smoothly! In the end it bites like a snake, and poisons like a viper!" This is equally true of all other forms of evil, especially of the lusts of the flesh. Lewd words, soon lead to foul deeds. Yet such is the folly of men, that they run dreadful risks in sheer wantonness, as though vipers and cobras were fine playmates, and devils were merry-makers! "Keep your servant from deliberate sins! Do not let them control me. Then I will be free of guilt and innocent of great sin." Psalm 19:13

Today's episode is one that's coming straight from the heart (and maybe a little from the edge of a breakdown). We're talking burnout—not the cute kind that gets fixed with a latte and a nap, but the crispy, crunchy, why-did-I-say-yes-to-this kind of burnout that so many interior designers are quietly dealing with. I'm calling it Burnout Bake Out—yes, it's on brand with our new Bake House theme, but also because when you're fried and flaking apart at the seams, it's not just burnout, babe. That's what happens when the oven's been on too long and no one remembered to set a timer. In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on what burnout really looks like for us as designers—taking on too much, ghosting ourselves, and losing sight of why we started our businesses in the first place. If you've ever fantasized about quitting and moving to a goat farm (yes, I've been there), this one's for you. What we cover in this episode: The rookie mistake most designers make that leads straight to burnout Why saying yes to every project is not a badge of honor The difference between being busy and being profitable (they are not the same) How I ended up juggling six full-home projects and almost lost my mind The exact script you can use when you need to reset expectations with a client Why clients aren't hiring you to be perfect—they're hiring you to lead How to bake in rest, white space, and recovery time into your business Practical ways to protect your energy and say “hell yes” only to the right projects   Let's be real for a second... Burnout is not your business model. Working yourself into the ground isn't a sign of success—it's a sign that your systems, pricing, or boundaries need some love. And I want you to know: you're allowed to rest. Renegotiating timelines doesn't make you flaky—it makes you a pro. If this episode hit home, send it to a fellow designer who's just one “sure, I can do that” away from burnout. Let's normalize the hard conversations, the boundaries, and the brave decision to pause when needed.

Join hosts Tom Simmons and Matthew Wallace, joined by HRP's EHS&S Practice Leader, Jackie Baxley, as we break down the new deadline for PFAS TSCA reporting.EPA announced an interim final rule which extended the dates of the reporting period for data submissions for the TSCA PFAS reporting rule. Submissions are now due by October 13, 2026, for most manufacturers. Small businesses reporting data solely on importing PFAS contained in articles have until April 13, 2027, to submit reports. This rule provides much needed time for the regulated community to assess its manufacturing (including import) from 2011 to 2022 relative to PFAS.  Prior to this rule being published, the reporting period was set to open this July with reports due January 11, 2026. For more information on this rule, refer to HRP's webinar presented February 2025: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jNalxzfPxog  Listen to learn more and subscribe to The Pulse for all the details.

Cook County is building a facility to help people on Chicago's South Side and in the south suburbs properly dispose of hazardous household waste

HR1 BBQ, Dr. Julie Gatza: Gastromic Issues, Hazardous Plastic 5-14-25 by John Rush

https://jo.my/erw5ze Hazard Communication & Chemical Safety: Introduction to Hazard Communication (HazCom) Our topic this month focuses on Hazard Communication, also known as HazCom. This standard is built on a simple principle: every team member has the right to know about the hazardous substances they may come into contact with during their shift. That includes how to handle them safely and what to do if something goes wrong. Hazardous chemicals, ranging from cleaning supplies to fuels, industrial solvents, paints, and everything in between, are present in nearly every facility. These substances can pose serious risks if not identified, stored, and communicated properly. A strong Safety Culture depends on everyone understanding these hazards and following safe practices. Here are a few tips to assist you with staying safe around hazardous chemicals: Know what's in your facility. All chemicals on site should be listed in a Safety Data Sheet (SDS), which must always be available to all team members. If you are unsure about a substance, check the SDS or ask a supervisor for guidance. Read the labels—every time. Before using any chemical, look at the label for hazard warnings, handling instructions, and required personal protective equipment (PPE). Never assume two similar-looking containers hold the same contents. Please follow the signage and posted instructions. Areas with chemical storage or usage will have signs indicating risks—flammable, corrosive, toxic, etc. Respect those warnings. They're there to prevent accidents before they happen. Wear the correct PPE for the job. Depending on the chemical involved, gloves, goggles, respirators, or protective clothing (To name a few) might be required. Using the correct PPE is a key part of protecting yourself from chemical exposure. Be sure to report damaged or missing labels. A label is your first line of defense. If labels are unreadable or missing, please treat the container as unknown and report it immediately. Don't try to guess what's inside. Hazard Communication is more than paperwork, posters, and labels—it's about making sure everyone in the facility understands the risks around them and knows how to act safely. It requires clear communication, consistent training, and a shared responsibility between leadership and staff. Building a safer workplace starts with knowledge. When everyone knows what substances are in use and how to interact with them safely, injuries and exposure incidents decrease. Make it a habit to check labels, read SDSs, and ask questions if something seems wrong. Thank you for being part of another episode of Warehouse Safety Tips. Until we meet next time - have a great week, and STAY SAFE! #Safety #SafetyFIRST #SafetyALWAYS #StaySafe #SafetyCulture #HazardCommunication #ChemicalSafety#PPE #HazCom #SDS #LabelItRight

Bruce Main, chair of the ANSI/ASSP Z244 Committee shares how the Z244 standard can help control hazardous energy through lockout/tagout and alternative methods. He discusses steps you can take to ensure your workforce is properly trained on how to properly isolate or control different forms of hazardous energy to reduce risks and prevent incidents. 

Perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances, or PFAS, are a class of synthetic chemicals that have been used since the 1940s to manufacture a wide range of products, from nonstick cookware to firefighting foam, clothes and electronics. PFAS have also been described as “forever chemicals” because they easily disperse and persist in the environment, where they’ve been found in drinking water, soil, air and even the food supply. This week, the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality opened public comment on its proposed rulemaking to regulate six types of PFAS compounds, adding them to the list of more than 800 hazardous substances the agency already regulates. Exposure to certain levels of PFAS may increase the risk for some types of cancer, lead to developmental delays in children, among other adverse health effects, according to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. Last April, the EPA designated two PFAS chemicals as hazardous substances and created the first-ever, national drinking water standard for six PFAS chemicals. Sarah Van Glubt is a cleanup project manager for the Oregon DEQ. She joins us to share what the proposed PFAS regulations would allow for, including testing and cleanup 

“A slack hand causes poverty, but the hand of the diligent makes rich.” — Proverbs 10:4At Faith and Finance, we believe the Bible offers timeless financial wisdom—and sometimes, that wisdom shows up in the form of gentle correction. Let's face it: we all make financial missteps—some intentional, others unintentional. But every mistake is an opportunity to grow in wisdom and stewardship.If you've made some poor decisions with your money, don't let Proverbs 10:4 discourage you. Instead, take heart in Proverbs 19:20:“Listen to advice and accept instruction, that you may gain wisdom in the future.”Let's walk through six money mistakes that can quietly erode your wealth—and how to avoid or correct them with diligence and wisdom.1. Living Paycheck to PaycheckOne of the most common financial traps is spending everything you earn. When there's nothing left over at the end of the month, you're missing an essential part of wise stewardship: saving.The solution? Pay yourself first.Start by setting up an automatic transfer from your checking account to your savings. Even if it's a small amount, consistency is key. Adjust your monthly spending to fit what remains. Yes, it might mean cutting back on things you've grown used to, but almost everyone can trim something from their budget.Aim to save at least 10% of your income. Over time, this will build your financial margin and peace of mind.2. Not Having an Emergency FundWithout savings, every unexpected expense becomes a crisis. And that leads to our next mistake—debt.Once you've begun setting money aside, build your emergency fund. Start with a goal of three months' worth of living expenses and work your way up to six. This financial cushion protects you from having to rely on credit when life throws a curveball.3. Paying Interest on Consumer DebtWithout savings, many people make the costly mistake of using credit cards to cover emergencies.If you carry credit card debt, the biggest mistake you can make is only paying the minimum. Take a close look at your statement—it may show how long it'll take to pay off your balance at the minimum payment. The number might shock you: 15 years or more.Reframe your spending by asking, "What is this really costing me?"A $30 dinner paid with a credit card could cost $60 or more by the time it's paid off. That's not good stewardship.4. Buying a New Car (When You Can't Afford It)There's nothing wrong with buying a new car—if you can pay cash for it. That's the key.Instead of taking on car loans, aim to pay cash for your vehicles, new or used. After you pay off your current car loan, keep making those same “payments”—but to yourself. Put them in a savings account and use that money to purchase your next car.It may take a few vehicles to get there, but eventually, you'll be able to pay cash—and that will be a glorious day.5. Not Opening a Roth IRAEspecially if you're young, not opening a Roth IRA is a missed opportunity for long-term, tax-free growth.Once your emergency fund is in place, consider contributing to a Roth IRA, even if you're already contributing to a 401(k) at work.In 2025, you can contribute up to $7,000 annually to a Roth IRA—or $8,000 if you're age 50 or older. Because you're contributing after-tax dollars, your qualified withdrawals in retirement will be tax-free.That's a powerful way to build lasting wealth.6. Buying Too Much HouseHomeownership can be a blessing, but only if approached wisely. Spending too much on a house can strain your budget, robbing you of financial flexibility and peace.A manageable mortgage, combined with consistent savings, puts you on a path toward financial stability and positions you to honor God with greater freedom and generosity.We all make mistakes with money, but we don't have to stay stuck in them. God's Word is full of grace and wisdom. When we humbly receive correction and take steps toward diligence, we grow not only in financial strength but also in spiritual maturity.So, whether you're just beginning your financial journey or recalibrating after a few missteps, remember that wisdom is always available to those who seek it.“Listen to advice and accept instruction, that you may gain wisdom in the future.” — Proverbs 19:20Let's walk in wisdom and let our money reflect our trust in the One who provides everything.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I have a disabled son, and I would like to leave him some money without attorneys or the government taking it away from him. Is there a way to do that?I'm retired but still working a few days a week, and my Social Security is deducted from my paycheck. What happened to that Social Security? Do I get it later? How does it work?I have a 401(k), and I'd like to know how I can invest according to my values with the options available in it. The only options are big companies that I'd rather not invest in. Do you have any suggestions?We recently sold our house for a good profit, and I'd like to know how we tithe on it. Do we tithe on the full amount we received or only on what goes above the initial price and the interest we paid on it?I left a job and rolled my 401(k) over to my current employer's account. I also have another 401(k). Should I combine them or keep them separate? I'm also getting a car accident settlement. Should I use it to pay off my car loans and credit cards or invest it and continue making payments?I'm 58 and still working, with my house and car paid off. When is it appropriate to redo my will? Is it time to do a trust? Or when is that the wise thing to do?Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's New Quarterly MagazineList of Faith-Based Investment FundsWisdom Over Wealth: 12 Lessons from Ecclesiastes on Money (Pre-Order)Look At The Sparrows: A 21-Day Devotional on Financial Fear and AnxietyRich Toward God: A Study on the Parable of the Rich FoolFind a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA) or Certified Christian Financial Counselor (CertCFC)FaithFi App Remember, you can call in to ask your questions most days at (800) 525-7000.

“And so you have different kinds of hazards with the drugs that you're using. That means that in the past, when a lot of oncology drugs, antineoplastic drugs used to treat cancer would have been added, you may see that a lot of oncology drugs either weren't added or they're added in a different place on the list than they were in the past. That's due to some of the restructuring of the list we'll probably talk about later,” Jerald L. Ovesen, PhD, pharmacologist at the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, told Jaime Weimer, MSN, RN, AGCNS-BS, AOCNS®, manager of oncology nursing practice at ONS, during a conversation about the latest update to the NIOSH list of hazardous drugs.  Music Credit: “Fireflies and Stardust” by Kevin MacLeod  Licensed under Creative Commons by Attribution 3.0   Episode Notes   NCPD contact hours are not available for this episode.  ONS Podcast™ episodes: Episode 330: Stay Up to Date on Safe Handling of Hazardous Drugs  Episode 142: The How-To of Home Infusions Episode 68: Empowering Healthcare Workers to Handle Hazardous Drugs Episode 53: Home Care Nursing for Patients With Cancer ONS Voice articles: Hazardous Drug Surface Contamination Prevails, Despite More Diligent PPE  NIOSH Releases Its 2024 List of Hazardous Drugs  No Place Like It: Home Care for Patients With Cancer  What Is ONS's Stance on Handling Chemotherapy While Pregnant, Breastfeeding, or Trying to Conceive?  What You Wear Matters When It Comes to Safety  ONS book: Safe Handling of Hazardous Drugs (Fourth Edition)  ONS course: Safe Handling Basics  Clinical Journal of Oncology Nursing article: Safe Management of Chemotherapy in the Home  ONS Learning Library: Safe Handling of Hazardous Drugs  ONS Position Statement: Ensuring Healthcare Worker Safety When Handling Hazardous Drugs  National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health article: Managing Hazardous Drug Exposures: Information for Healthcare Settings  NIOSH List of Hazardous Drugs in Healthcare Settings, 2024  To discuss the information in this episode with other oncology nurses, visit the ONS Communities.   To find resources for creating an ONS Podcast Club in your chapter or nursing community, visit the ONS Podcast Library.  To provide feedback or otherwise reach ONS about the podcast, email pubONSVoice@ons.org.  Highlights From This Episode  “So we look for a carcinogenic hazard. So does this molecule, does this chemical, this drug, have the ability to increase the risk of cancer? A lot of the time that will also tie with genotoxic hazards, but not always. There are some drugs on the list that are carcinogenic through other mechanisms. Sometimes carcinogenicity can be related to hormone signals, can lead to increased risk of cancer. There's some nuance there, but is it a carcinogenic hazard? That can get it onto the list. Is it a developmental and reproductive hazard?” TS 10:48  “NIOSH can't say what's right for every situation, but some organizations have suggested further precautions such as temporary alternative duty for workers who are pregnant or are looking to become pregnant. NIOSH can't say what's best for any given facility, but other organizations have given some good suggestions you may want to look into.” TS 13:18  “The list doesn't really rank hazard. I know a lot of people have kind of treated it that way a lot of times. We don't say that something is less hazardous if it's only a developmental or reproductive hazard, because if you're trying to have a child, then that's an important hazard to you. And we don't necessarily say something that's carcinogenic is more hazardous.” TS 14:34  “Some standard setting organizations have set standards for handling. Really in the oncology setting, particularly oncology pharmacy setting, it's really changed how some of the handling happens there because some of the standards come out of the pharmacy world. And what's happened there is some drugs that are oncology drugs, they might have been on table one before just because they were used in the treatment of cancer. They were antineoplastics, so they were on table one. Now, because they're not identified as a potential carcinogen and they don't have manufactured special handling information, they are now on table two.” TS 23:39  “Occasionally, if a drug comes out and has manufacturer special handling information, we'll go ahead and add it to the list. And since we won't add it into the publication, we typically have a table on that page that puts that there. If a drug is reevaluated and we find that the hazard is not as bad as expected or it's not a hazard, actually, and we can remove it from the list; sometimes we get new information and that happens.” TS 30:30 

Does your doctor seem more focused on their screen than on you?  Two-thirds of physicians are now using AI for everything from billing to diagnosis - but here's the kicker - only 38% actually trust the technology. This brewing healthcare disaster isn't just about robots taking doctors' jobs; it's about who's accountable when AI makes a potentially life-altering mistake with your medical information, and why insurance companies are salivating at the thought of using algorithms to deny your claims even faster. Listen as Jeremy, Jason, and Zach dive into the alarming rise of AI in healthcare, how to find meaning in your fitness journey when depression makes everything feel pointless, and why sometimes treating your workout like wiping your ass is the perfect mental approach to consistency. Topics Discussed Why 66% of physicians are using AI despite only 38% trusting it - creating a dangerous accountability gap in healthcare How insurance companies will likely use AI to deny claims faster rather than improve patient care The potential for errors in medical records when AI is used to generate and update patient information The challenge of determining liability when AI contributes to medical errors Using workout data tracking to combat depression's lie that "nothing is working" How Jeremy discovered he'd doubled his strength despite feeling like he wasn't making progress The value of consistency over intensity when building healthy habits Why treating workouts like mundane necessities (like wiping your ass) helps with consistency Finding meaning in fitness when battling existential crises The importance of "showing up" rather than focusing solely on specific fitness goals Resources Research: American Medical Association report on AI adoption in healthcare ---- MORE FROM THE FIT MESS: Connect with us on Threads, Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, and Tiktok Subscribe to The Fit Mess on Youtube Join our community in the Fit Mess Facebook group ---- LINKS TO OUR PARTNERS: Take control of how you'd like to feel with Apollo Neuro Explore the many benefits of cold therapy for your body with Nurecover Muse's Brain Sensing Headbands Improve Your Meditation Practice.

Imagine a world in which companies could secretly export toxic waste and dump it in unsuspecting communities. Until the 1992 Basel Convention on the Control of Transboundary Movements of Hazardous Wastes and Their Disposal, there were no rules governing the international movement of toxic waste. Today, this convention ensures that such waste cannot be sent to unsuspecting recipients, particularly in the Global South. What makes this treaty so interesting to me is that it was inspired by an environmental scandal in the late 1980s, when an Italian company dumped toxic waste in the Nigerian town of Koko. The discovery of the waste sparked international outrage and led to stricter global regulations, including the Basel Convention. Joining me today to explain the impact of the Basel Convention is one of the world's foremost experts on environmental treaties, Maria Ivanova. She is the director of the School of Public Policy and Urban Affairs at Northeastern University and a professor of public policy. We kick off by discussing how this scandal led to a treaty on the international movement of hazardous waste, followed by a longer conversation about its lasting impact on the world today. This episode is produced in partnership with Lex International Fund, a philanthropic fund dedicated to strengthening international law to solve global challenges. It is part of a series that demonstrates the impact of treaties on state behavior, which we are calling "When Treaties Work."
