The fire that led to 39 deaths and nine injuries at a complex building in Jialeyuan community in Xinyu, Jiangxi province, on Jan 24 was caused by illegal construction of a cold storage facility in its basement, according to an investigation report released on Saturday.根据9月21日公布的一份调查报告，江西省新余市佳乐苑小区的一栋综合楼于1月24日发生火灾，造成39人死亡、9人受伤，起火原因是该楼地下一层违规建设冷库。Polyurethane foam sealant was used during construction at the first floor underground, releasing flammable gases that accumulated to reach combustible conditions. While laying plastic film on extruded polystyrene boards, static electricity was generated, igniting the gases, the foam and other flammable materials. It created a large amount of toxic smoke, according to the report approved by an executive meeting of the State Council.国务院常务会议审议通过的调查报告显示，地下一层施工作业中使用聚氨酯泡沫填缝剂时，释放易燃气体局部积聚达到可燃条件；在挤塑板上铺设塑料薄膜时，产生静电放电点燃积聚的易燃气体，迅即引燃聚氨酯泡沫、挤塑板等易燃可燃材料，产生大量有毒烟气。The smoke quickly spread to the second floor as the fire separation in the shared evacuation staircase between the basement and the ground floor was missing. On the second floor, students and teachers were having classes organized by a training institute. Because of the security nets and advertising boards outside the classrooms, they failed to escape on time, resulting in an increase in casualties.因地下一层与一层共用的疏散楼梯防火分隔缺失，烟气快速蔓延至二层。在二楼，师生们正在上培训机构组织的课程。由于教室外安装了防盗网和广告牌，他们无法及时逃生，造成人员伤亡扩大。The accident, which happened in the afternoon of Jan 24 caused a direct economic loss of more than 43.52 million yuan ($6.17 million).事故发生在1月24日下午，造成直接经济损失4352万余元（约617万美元）。An investigation team was established by the Ministry of Emergency Management, the Ministry of Public Security, the National Fire and Rescue Administration, the All-China Federation of Trade Unions, and the Jiangxi Provincial People's Government afterwards.事后，应急管理部、公安部、国家消防救援局、全国总工会和江西省人民政府成立了事故调查组。The team found that the owner of the building illegally rented the basement floor, where construction of the cold storage facility was illegal. The building had significant deficiencies in fire prevention. The educational training institute and a hotel were operating in violation of regulations. The relevant local authorities failed to carry out supervision.调查组查明，涉事房主违法违规出租综合楼地下一层，冷库建设施工单位违规建设冷库。涉事建筑存在防火分隔重大缺陷，教育培训机构和宾馆违规经营，属地有关部门监管缺位。In an interview with Xinhua News Agency, the team suggested enhancing safety management of cold storages by regulating planning, site selection and on-site construction. It also asked for strengthened management of major places where multiple businesses operate.在接受新华社采访时，调查组建议通过规范规划、选址和现场施工建设来加强冷库安全管理。此外，调查组还要求强化多业态混合经营等重点场所安全管理。Efforts should be made to promote installation of "one-click alarm" devices in crowded areas and near evacuation routes, enabling a single press to trigger building-wide alarms and prompt responses from all occupants, it said.调查组建议，要大力推广在人员集中区域、疏散通道附近安装“一键报警”装置，实现一键按下，全楼报警、全员响应。It also addresses issues such as congested safety evacuation routes, poorly maintained fire safety facilities, inadequate safety exits, and potential hazards such as unauthorized security nets and advertisement boards.调查组还强调，要有效解决安全疏散通道不畅、消防设施未保持完好有效、安全出口不足、违规设置防盗网和广告牌等问题隐患。cold storage facility冷库，冷藏设施combustibleadj.可燃的evacuation route疏散通道potential hazard隐患，潜在的风险

That change did not mean the total elimination of lacquer/nitro finishes, it meant that nitro was used less, but at times was still used for topcoats, and it was nearly always used on the headstock after the CBS black logo was applied into the early 1980s.Special thanks to Dan Strain for making his 1957 Telecaster, and 1972 Stratocaster available, and of course for the use of his workbench.  #askzac #zacchilds #telecasterSupport the show

The process of rebuilding communities that have taken a hit during the weather events of this summer is going to be a long and arduous process. Tough decisions will have to be made. Personal decisions will have to be made. Do you want to go back and live in the place where your worst nightmare occurred? I'm thinking of the families whose homes came down in landslides, whose homes were flooded and had to flee in the middle of the night. And there are many Auckland families, and indeed Hawkes Bay families, who have been flooded not once, not twice, not three times, but more than that. I'm thinking of the lovely lady who rang us who had been washed away in the floods, her home had been destroyed that they'd worked so hard on. Her mum was living with them - she had to go into a rest home because while they were in the process of rebuilding because it was cold and it was damp there was Polyurethane covering some of the walls so she couldn't live there.  So all of a sudden life changed. Well, I just wonder what happened to her in these latest floods, if she's been hit again, will she want to go back there?   A group of West Auckland homeowners, and this will not be the first group, has set up agroup asking authorities to step in and buy their flood affected properties so they can leave.  Basically, execute the managed retreat that's being talked about, a process where people are relocated and their properties are turned into parks or reserves. The campaign is backed by Te Atatu MP Phil Twyford who's been working with families in about eight neighbourhoods since the floods of 2021. A report found the flooding was partly due to blockages in the Waimoko stream, partly due to geography and the overpowering force of the one-in-100-year flood, which then came along in 2022. These one in 100 year events seem to be occurring far more often!  Should the same thing happen in Esk Valley? Should clifftop homes be part of a managed retreat, something like the King's chain, whereby the shoreline belongs to the public and you have access to the beach, the cliff tops are the same. You get access to the spectacular views and walk along there and houses are moved back from cliff edges. When we talk about buying back houses? That's the taxpayer. That's us trying to pay our mortgages as well as other people's homes. It might be the way to do it. I mean we are going to have to take a long hard look, not just stick a Band-Aid on communities, spend billions of dollars and then do it all again in another couple of years.   When it comes to the managed retreats and the rebuilding of communities, do we rebuild them in the same places? Do we restore homes and put people back in there after they've been flooded once, twice, three times? That doesn't seem like sane advice, when we're being told that the weather's only going to get worse. We're spending billions anyway, about every couple of years on natural disasters, or do people just have to cut their losses and clear out? And it's on the individual and not the community. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Algenesis is two companies in one, a biotechnology innovator and footwear maker. Making a new, sustainable material often requires the inventor to prove its utility before big companies will embrace it. Join the conversation for a story of discovery and finding a practical application to prove the value of a plant-based, compostable bioplastic foam. Stephen Mayfield, a professor of Biology at UC San Diego and director of the California Center for Algae Biotechnology, invented Soleic, an algae-based rubbery foam material that can be used in footwear, surfboards and other products in the place of petroleum-based polyurethane foam. He launched Algenesis, a biotechnology-based materials science company to commercialize the Soleic.But shoe companies did not come running to use Soleic, which biodegrades completely in sea water and compost piles. Along with Algenisis president Tom Cooke, a footwear and apparel industry veteran who had worked for Reef and Vans, Steve launched Blueview Footwear, maker of the world's first compostable shoe. Steve and Tom join me today to talk about the evolution of Algenesis and Blueview, as well as the many materials Soleic could replace across a variety of product categories. The companies have also developed compostable, plant-based fabrics and a bioplastic waterproofing technology that biodegrades into organic material in a home compost pile. You can learn more about Blueview Footwear at https://blueviewfootwear.com/ and its parent company Algenesis Materials at https://www.algenesismaterials.com/

Lomelda is the stage name of Texas-born singer and guitarist Hannah Read. The distinction between Lomelda and Hannah is one she wrestles with on her new album, called “Hannah.” She has a remarkable voice and her songs can swing from softly sung ballads to roaring guitar-based rock; and those songs can cover topics like family, music, creativity, and most notably on this new album, Hannah Read. The album is called Hannah, and in addition to “Hannah’s Sun,” we get tracks called “Hannah Happiest” and “Hannah Please.” But we also get the apparently definitive song title “It’s Lomelda,” a tune that namechecks favorite bands like Low, Yo La Tengo, and Frank Ocean. Lomelda (Hannah?) plays some her inventively-arranged songs, solo, remotely.  Set list: "Wonder," "Tommy Dread," "Polyurethane": "Wonder": "Tommy Dread,": "Polyurethane,":

Thermoset plastics are ones that contain polymers that cross-link together during the curing process to form an irreversible chemical bond.  This improves the material’s mechanical properties, provides chemical resistance, heat resistance, and structural integrity.  Thermosets include epoxies, polyurethanes, and rubber used for tires.  The big problem with thermosets is that they cannot be easily recycled […]

How To Start a Commercial Roofing Company Most roofing contractors focus primarily on the residential roofing industry, but 95% of them would like to expand to more commercial projects if possible. Sometimes residential roofers will get a commercial job here and there and enjoy the short turnaround and significant payout. The problem is that they don't have the resources to get commercial roofing leads and the equipment to perform all commercial projects. This episode explains how to start a commercial roofing company. How To Get Started Residential roofers looking to expand into the commercial space should read our ultimate guide to commercial roofing marketing. Well-established websites can begin ranking for commercial keywords within weeks. Since the website already holds authority in the general niche (roofing), it can seamlessly extend into a specific category within the broader landscape. Writing high-quality service pages relating to commercial roofing categories is the recipe for organic search domination. But getting into the commercial space requires additional steps. Conklin Roof Coatings Several companies exist to help individuals and businesses get into commercial roofing. In the commercial roof coatings/restoration category, Conklin is one of the biggest names out there. Nolen Walker is the owner of Roofing Webmasters and a member of Conklin, so he can connect you with the contacts you need to become a commercial roof restoration expert. Commercial roof coatings are the best way to enter the commercial industry and expand your business to that sphere. Conklin members get paid to train you. Get in touch with a local Conklin distributor who will wind up receiving a small percentage of your payout. These distributors will walk a commercial roof with you so that you can make a bid. Why Does Nolen Know About Commercial Roofing? To learn more about his client base, Nolen became a member of Conklin roofing. It was a way to learn more about the craft of roofing to more effectively market the services. Most roofers will tell you straight up; they get frustrated by marketers who are so tone-deaf to their industrial language. While Nolen is not a roofer himself, he has more knowledge of the roofing industry than any competitor in the country. It's steps like joining Conklin that separate Roofing Webmasters from other digital marketing agencies, especially those who claim to specialize in service industries like roofing. We can have detailed discussions with clients. Nolen and his team at Roofing Webmasters are aware of different commercial roof types like Single Ply, EPDM, PVC, TPO, and different coating types like Acrylic and Polyurethane. It's all part of demanding the best of ourselves as a marketing company. It helps with: Client Conversions Company Branding Content Marketing Commercial Roofing Marketing Once you learn about commercial roofing jobs and have the resources to perform them, you must adequately market them. Without leads, your newly acquired knowledge becomes moot. The good news is that Roofing Webmasters allows you to buy roofing leads with our Pay Per Lead services (PPL). With this agreement, you'll receive all the primary marketing services like SEO and roofing web design, but pay only once an exclusive lead is generated from our work. We screen calls to ensure that any lead from 3rd party source is properly attributed. In other words, we only charge you for leads that come from us. Here's what you'll get with our marketing plan: Custom Roofing Website Google Maps Integration Google My Business Optimization Search Engine Optimization Social Media Management Call (800) 353-5758 For Commercial Roofing Jobs The post How To Get Into Commercial Roofing (Podcast) appeared first on Roofing Webmasters.

C is for Condom   Welcome to the A to Z of Sex. I'm Dr Lori Beth and I am your host.  We are working our way through the erotic alphabet one letter at a time.  Just a reminder this podcast deals with adult content, so if you don't have total privacy, you might want to put on your headphones.  Today the letter is C and C is for Condom.    This week – the history of the condom.  There are two cave paintings in France from 11,000 BC that scientists believe illustrate the first evidence of condoms.  Having looked at the illustrations it is unclear to me as to why they believe that.    Around 1,000 BC, the Egyptians used a linen sheath around the penis to prevent insect bites and tropical diseases.  The Chinese used oiled silk paper and the Japanese used leather and tortoiseshell sheaths.  The Romans developed condoms made of goat's bladders.    None of this is terribly appealing…   In the 1400's in China and Japan, condoms first began to be used for birth control and to protect against infection.  Safe sex was understood even back then.  It is amazing that we still have trouble engaging people in safe sex given how long we have known how to engage in it!    The Chinese favoured silk and lamb's intestines.  The Japanese favoured horn and tortoiseshell which seems tremendously uncomfortable to me!   In the 1500's Gabrielle Fallopius invented a chemical soaked linen sheath to prevent the spread of syphilis.  It was tied with a ribbon around the shaft of the penis.  He conducted the first research that proved that condoms prevent the spread of sexually transmitted infections.  The study had 1100 participants and used the linen condoms he invented.    None of the people who used these contracted syphilis.   By the time we reached the 1700's, the use of condoms for the prevention of pregnancy and sexually transmitted infections is more widely known but now there is controversy as to whether or not they work.  Some people believe that the availability of condoms encourages people to have more sex with more partners and so encourages immorality.    During this time period, condoms became available in pubs and markets and were either made of intestines or bladder and soaked in lye or sulphur or made of linen and soaked in chemicals.   In the 1800's members of parliament in the UK tried to get condoms banned because they didn't do enough to prevent syphilis and encouraged lots of sex.   The first rubber condom arrived in 1855.  Rubber condoms were reusable so saved money in the long run but they were individually fitted.  Despite this, they often fell off because they only covered the glans of the penis.  Skin condoms were still cheaper.   In the 1900's, lots of development occurred primarily because the military began to issue soldiers with condoms to prevent STI's.  In the late 1920's latex was invented, and the first latex condoms appeared.  But early latex condoms were not very effective at all – many leaked.  As a result, the FDA in the US decided that a condom was a drug so that every condom had to be tested.  In 1957, Durex created the first condom with lubrication.  When condoms were found to prevent the spread of HIV, sales increased dramatically.  Condoms remain the mainstay of safe sex.   Modern condoms are made of a variety of materials including natural latex, polyurethane, A-10 resin, and lambs intestines.  Latex are the most flexible however some people have allergies and they cannot be used with oil based lubricants.  Polyurethane has the disadvantage of being less elastic than latex and are more likely to slip or break than latex, but they can be used with oil based lubricants. Polyisoprene is a synthetic version of natural rubber latex.  It has the advantage of being softer and more elastic like latex but without the protein that causes latex allergies.  It transmits body heat well.  But it cannot be used with oil based lubricants.   Lambskin are said to feel more natural, but they...

Have you ever sat on the sauna bench with someone who has created a product that hundreds of millions of people have experienced? During this episode of Sauna Talk, you will be able to get into the head and mind of serial entrepreneur Scott Olson. Thanks to extended sauna rounds on the bench, we will get deep into Scott’s mindset at the time when inline skating was just an idea. We will learn about what it took to turn a vision into a prototype, then into trial, and finally into a product that you either own or have experienced many times. Polyurethane wheels hold an edge, able to push off, like on ice. The story of Rollerblade is fascinating. What is equally fascinating is Scott Olson’s approach to creative thinking: how to turn ideas into marketable products. These tips can apply to inventors, dreamers, or just anyone looking for a more creative approach to their day.  We will learn more about Scott’s fitness based products. You have to have a lot of confidence to walk into a bar wearing a sarong. Overlying all of this is Scott’s appreciation of his place in the world. On the sauna bench, the true nature of someone’s character reveals itself. Scott presents no ego.

The aim of the study was to compare the behavior of seeded cells on synthetic and natural aortic valve scaffolds during a low-flow conditioning period. Polyurethane (group A) and aortic homograft valves (group B) were consecutively seeded with human fibroblasts (FB), and endothelial cells (EC) using a rotating seeding device. Each seeding procedure was followed by an exposure to low pulsatile flow in a dynamic bioreactor for 5 days. For further analysis, samples were taken before and after conditioning. Scanning electron microscopy showed confluent cell layers in both groups. Immunohistochemical analysis showed the presence of EC and FB before and after conditioning as well as the establishment of an extracellular matrix (ECM) during conditioning. A higher expression of ECM was observed on the scaffolds' inner surface. Real-time polymerase chain reaction showed higher inflammatory response during the conditioning of homografts. Endothelialization caused a decrease in inflammatory gene expression. The efficient colonization, the establishment of an ECM, and the comparable inflammatory cell reaction to the scaffolds in both groups proved the biocompatibility of the synthetic scaffold. The newly developed bioreactor permits conditioning and cell adaption to shear stress. Therefore, polyurethane valve scaffolds may offer a new option for aortic valve replacement.

Background: Tissue engineering represents a promising new method for treating heart valve diseases. The aim of this study was evaluate the importance of conditioning procedures of tissue engineered polyurethane heart valve prostheses by the comparison of static and dynamic cultivation methods. Methods: Human vascular endothelial cells (ECs) and fibroblasts (FBs) were obtained from saphenous vein segments. Polyurethane scaffolds (n = 10) were primarily seeded with FBs and subsequently with ECs, followed by different cultivation methods of cell layers (A: static, B: dynamic). Group A was statically cultivated for 6 days. Group B was exposed to low flow conditions (t(1)=3 days at 750 ml/min, t(2)=2 days at 1100 ml/min) in a newly developed conditioning bioreactor. Samples were taken after static and dynamic cultivation and were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), immunohistochemistry (IHC), and real time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Results: SEM results showed a high density of adherent cells on the surface valves from both groups. However, better cell distribution and cell behavior was detected in Group B. IHC staining against CD31 and TE-7 revealed a positive reaction in both groups. Higher expression of extracellular matrix (ICAM, Collagen IV) was observed in Group B. RT-PCR demonstrated a higher expression of inflammatory Cytokines in Group B. Conclusion: While conventional cultivation method can be used for the development of tissue engineered heart valves. Better results can be obtained by performing a conditioning step that may improve the tolerance of cells to shear stress. The novel pulsatile bioreactor offers an adequate tool for in vitro improvement of mechanical properties of tissue engineered cardiovascular prostheses.

Objective: Hepatocytes are increasingly used as functional units in bioartificial liver devices. The objective of the present study was to investigate the feasibility of culturing porcine hepatocytes in high density on a novel polyurethane-based nonwoven three-dimensional matrix. We investigated (1) the optimal cell density within this culture configuration, (2) the maintenance of liver-specific morphology and cell functions over long-term periods and (3) the necessity to apply an additional extracellular matrix component (collagen gel). Methods: Nonwoven polyurethane matrices were manufactured by a specially developed fiber extrusion technology. Pig hepatocytes were cultured at various cell densities of 0.1, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1 and 2 x 10(6) cells/cm(2) on three-dimensional networks of nonwoven polyurethane matrices and cell adhesion as well as functional parameters (DNA of nonattached/attached cells, lactate dehydrogenase release and cytochrome P450 activity) were determined. To assess the performance of cells within this configuration albumin and urea excretion was measured over 8 days. The potentially beneficial effect of an additional extracellular matrix configuration was evaluated by comparing the average albumin synthesis in groups of identical cell numbers. Results: The optimal cell density in this three-dimensional culture configuration was 1 x 10(6) cells/cm(2). The functional capacity of hepatocytes was stable for 8 days at an average level of 53.7 +/- 5.6 ng/h/mug DNA and of 1.8 +/- 0.14 mug/h/mug DNA for albumin and urea excretion, respectively. The supplementation of an extracellular matrix configuration did not improve functional activity of cells. Average albumin synthesis was 35.6 ng/h/mug DNA (28.7, 42.8) and 32.7 ng/h/mug DNA (23.4, 49.2) for collagen-immobilized and control cultures, respectively, Conclusion: The results of the study indicate that nonwoven polyurethane sheets supply a biocompatible support structure for functionally active high density cultures. Thus, nonwoven polyurethane matrices should be further investigated on with respect to their role in the development, optimization and design of bioartificial liver systems.
