Podcasts about Washing

Many people are naturally inclined to rub their eyes upon waking in the morning, but this should be avoided. The Shulhan Aruch (Orah Haim 4:3) writes that one should not touch any of the openings to his body – his mouth, his nostrils, his ears, or his eyes – in the morning before washing Netilat Yadayim. Hacham Ovadia Yosef cites the Solet Belula as asserting that the Sages forbade this because it could lead to spiritual harm – meaning, touching one's eyes could cause spiritual "blindness," an inability to "see" and understand Torah, and touching one's ears could affect his spiritual "hearing," his ability to listen and absorb Torah wisdom. However, Hacham Ovadia disputed this explanation, noting that it fails to account for the prohibition against touching one's mouth or nose before washing. Hacham Ovadia therefore adopted the more straightforward understanding, that the impurity on a person's hands in the morning could cause physical harm if they come in contact with the orifices on one's body. This prohibition applies also to the openings of the body in one's private areas. It is forbidden to touch the openings only with one's fingers; one may touch them with the palm of one's hand. Numerous Poskim – including the Ben Ish Hai, Mishna Berura, and Kaf Ha'haim – rule that it is forbidden in the morning to touch even the areas around the eyes, nose, ears and mouth. One who needs to do so should touch them indirectly, with a cloth or tissue. However, Hacham David Yosef, in Halacha Berura, writes that if one has a particular need, and no cloth is available, he may rely on the lenient view that allows touching the area around the openings to the body. The Yalkut Yosef rules that if a person has a particular need – such as if he suffers from an eye infection, and cannot wait to rub his eyes until after Netilat Yadayim – then he may rub his eyes, relying on the Rambam's view that harmful spirits do not exist nowadays. Rav Yisrael Bitan, however, disagrees, noting that the Rambam's view can be relied upon only in situations of great need, and in this case, one has the option of using a tissue or cloth, or waiting just a few moments until after Netilat Yadayim. One may be lenient in such a case, Rav Bitan rules, only if he is in great distress and has no tissue or cloth available, or if he had gone to sleep after halachic midnight, as we may take into account the view that the harmful spirits descend upon the hands only if one had gone to sleep before midnight. This Halacha does not apply to the impurity that descends upon the hands in the restroom. Therefore, after leaving the restroom, it is permissible to touch the openings to one's body even before washing Netilat Yadayim. However, one should refrain from touching food or beverages after leaving the restroom until he washes his hands. If he did touch food or a beverage before washing, then the food or beverage remains permissible, but if it can be rinsed, it should be rinsed three times before being consumed. One should not touch Torah books in the morning before washing Netilat Yadayim. It is permissible to smoke a cigarette in the morning before washing Netilat Yadayim. One should not, however, smell snuff in the morning before washing Netilat Yadayim. If one feels a need to smell snuff immediately upon waking, he may, though he must ensure not to touch his nostrils. Incidentally, Rav Haim Palachi (Turkey, 1788-1868) ruled that one may not smell snuff in a cemetery because there are impure forces in graveyards. Hacham Ovadia Yosef, however, disagreed, and maintained that there is no concern. Clearly, it is forbidden to eat in a cemetery, because one may not perform Misvot in the presence of the deceased, and this includes reciting Berachot over food. (Interestingly, Rav Haim Palachi also ruled that one may not smell snuff after leaving the restroom, while in a public bathhouse, or after taking a haircut or cutting one's nails, until washing Netilat Yadayim.) Summary: After waking in the morning, one must ensure not to touch any openings in his body – his ears, eyes, mouth, nostril or private areas – until washing Netilat Yadayim. If one must rub his eyes or a different opening, he should do so with a tissue, cloth, or a part of his hand other than his fingers. One should not touch Torah books in the morning before washing Netilat Yadayim.

Episode #608: Dave Hopkins came to vipassana meditation not as a scholar, traveler, or spiritual seeker, but as a working-class tree worker carrying grief, anger, addiction, and exhaustion. Raised in Delaware after his father's DuPont job brought the family north, he moved through school trouble, the Navy, drinking, restaurant work, and tree crews before landing at Dhamma Dharā, the Massachusetts meditation center in the tradition of S.N. Goenka. The pressure that brought him there was blunt: “Grief, yeah.” His younger brother Ed had taken a course at Dhamma Dharā in 1987 and returned radiant, but in March 1989 he died by suicide. Hopkins smoked more pot, tried to dull the wound, and found that nothing was working. His first ten-day course was brutal. He arrived as a pack-and-a-half-a-day smoker, left his cigarettes in the truck, endured craving, pain, drowsiness, and anger, then ran out on the tenth day, lit up, gagged, and never smoked again. The discipline gave him something he had repeatedly lost: a reason not to quit. Over the decades, practice, service, and tree work became linked. Washing pots for students taught him that ordinary labor could help others receive Dhamma. Tree work taught him preservation without sentimentality. He removes dangerous trees when necessary, but his business-card principle is simple: “Ff there's a tree that can be saved, let's have a conversation.” Yet Hopkins' loyalty to the tradition does not erase his questions. He has seen Dhamma Dharā grow from rough accommodations into polished infrastructure, watched the community become younger and more professional, and felt the assistant teacher world become more distant. Since Goenka's death, he senses “a little less heat” in the tradition's momentum. He remains committed, but wonders about rigidity, taboo subjects, samādhi, jhāna, and older Burmese teachings that seem wider than what the contemporary organization now permits. Hopkins never made it to Burma, and given the current conditions of conflict now ranging there, he doubts he may ever reach the Golden Land. “A lot of trains that I missed, a lot of boats that I missed,” he muses. Still, the deeper truth he draws from the path is less romantic than exacting: “You had the framework, and you had the technique, and no matter what length of course you're taking, you're on your own.”

The Ben Ish Hai (Rav Yosef Haim of Baghdad, 1833-1909) writes that mothers should wash the hands of their young children in the morning – even children who have yet to reach the age of Hinuch (training in Misva observance). Firstly, he explains, young children touch food, and if their hands are not washed in the morning, the foods they touch will become contaminated by the Tum'a (impurity) that descends upon the hands overnight. Secondly, washing the hands of young children in the morning has a significant spiritual impact, as it helps to lead them toward the path of purity and holiness. By contrast, Rav Shneur Zalman of Liadi (first Rebbe of Lubavitch, 1745-1812) writes that the hands of young children do not become impure overnight. Before a youngster becomes Bar-Misva, Rav Shneur Zalman explains, he does not have a pure Neshama (soul) that leaves during the night which would cause the forces of impurity to descend upon him. Therefore, according to Rav Shneur Zalman, there is no requirement to wash a young child's hands in the morning. Similarly, the Sitz Eliezer (Rav Eliezer Waldenberg, Jerusalem, 1915-2006) writes that the prevalent custom is to be lenient in this regard, and not to ensure to wash the hands of youngsters below the age of Hinuch. However, Hacham David Yosef, in Halacha Berura, writes that nowadays, when washing hands is a very simple matter, there is no valid reason to be lenient, and parents should ensure to wash the hands of even their young children. If a mother is a Nidda, it is preferable for her not to wash her young children's hands in the morning. Rav Yisrael Bitan writes that at first glance, we might think to allow her to wash the children's hands, since this washing is not required according to the strict Halacha, and so we do not need to treat it stringently. In truth, however, once we have established that it is proper to satisfy the opinion that impurity indeed descends upon the hands of young children, the washing should be performed in a manner that removes the Tum'a without any uncertainty. Rav Haim Palachi (Turkey, 1788-1868) writes that water poured by a person who is Tameh cannot remove the Tum'a from the hands, and so when a mother is a Nidda, the children should pour the water over their hands themselves if possible, and if not, then the father should pour the water. The water should not be poured by an unmarried girl who has already reached adolescence, as she, too, is a Nidda. Rav Haim Palachi writes also that the washing should be done by a Jew, and not by a gentile, such as a non-Jewish housekeeper or nanny. The Yalkut Yosef writes that a woman who is a Nidda is allowed to pour water over her children's hands, citing this ruling in the name of the Be'er Moshe (Rav Moshe Stern of Debrecen, 1914-1997). The Be'er Moshe reached this conclusion based on the Halacha permitting a Nidda to pour water on others' hands for Netilat Yadayim before eating bread, assuming that this should apply as well to the morning Netilat Yadayim. Rav Yisrael Bitan noted, however, that the morning hand-washing involves the removal of impurity, and thus differs from the washing before a meal. As mentioned, several sources indicate that a person with impurity is incapable of removing the impurity from another person's hands in the morning. Rav Bitan thus concluded that although those who wish to be lenient have a basis on which to rely, it is preferable for a woman who is a Nidda not to wash her children's hands for them in the morning. More generally, the Kab Ha'yashar (Rav Tzvi Hersh Kaidanover, d. 1712) writes that if a person wishes to have somebody else pour the water over his hands for Netilat Yadayim, he should ensure to have this done by a G-d-fearing, religiously-devout individual. The Zohar teaches that each morning, Eliyahu Ha'nabi goes to Me'arat Ha'machpela to wake up the Abot (patriarchs), and he washes their hands so they can pray. The fact that Eliyahu was chosen for this role, the Kab Ha'yashar, writes, shows that washing should be done by a righteous person. Rav Bitan emphasized that washing the hands of young children in the proper way is important for their religious growth. The Shulhan Aruch (Orah Haim 4:18) writes that failing to observe the requirement of Netilat Yadayim can cause a Torah scholar to forget the material he has learned. Rav Haim Palachi explains that Torah knowledge can be acquired only if one is in a state of holiness, and therefore, one who compromises his holiness by failing to wash his hands as required cannot retain his Torah knowledge. Indeed, the letters that precede the letters that spell "Torah" are Shin, Heh, Kof and Dalet – which spell the word "Kedusha" ("sanctity"). This shows that holiness is a precondition for Torah. If parents want their children to absorb Torah and grow in Torah learning and observance, they must ensure to maintain the children's state of purity, and this necessitates washing their hands each morning, even when they are very young. The Hazon Ish (Rav Avraham Yeshaya Karelitz, 1878-1953) is said to have taught that one who seeks to retain his Torah knowledge must ensure to always speak truthfully, to recite the traditional "Yehi Rason" prayer before learning, and to meticulously observe the laws of Netilat Yadayim. In fact, it is told that when the Hazon Ish was a child, his family ensured that all the children had their hands washed in the morning already from a very young age. Rav Haim Palachi noted that proper observance of the Netilat Yadayim requirement also ensures that one will always have a sufficient supply of water, even in times of drought, and will succeed in maintaining the purity of his thoughts. Summary: From a strict Halachic standpoint, it is questionable whether young children below the age of Hinuch (training in Misvot) must have their hands washed in the morning. Nevertheless, this should be done, as this contributes to their spiritual growth. A woman who is a Nidda – including the mother – should not wash the children's hands, and neither should a gentile, such as a non-Jewish nanny.

How AI, credit washing and synthetic identities are changing the fraud landscape for lenders Lenders face mounting fraud risks as increasingly sophisticated scams, synthetic identities, account takeover attacks and emerging forms of credit abuse continue to evolve. In this episode of Extra Credit, TransUnion's Adam Russell and Justin Murry join Craig and Josh to discuss how fraudsters are using technology, consumer data and AI to operate at greater scale and speed than ever before. The conversation explores several of the most significant fraud trends affecting lenders today, including synthetic identity fraud, credit washing and AI-enabled scams. The guests examine why these threats are becoming harder to detect, the risks they can conceal within lending portfolios and why fraud now demands attention well beyond the fraud department. Adam and Justin also share practical steps lenders can take to strengthen their fraud strategies — from benchmarking and implementing layered defenses to cross-industry collaboration. Looking ahead, they consider how AI will continue transforming both attack methods and prevention capabilities, making innovation and adaptability critical to staying ahead of what comes next. The information discussed in this podcast constitutes the opinion of TransUnion, and TransUnion shall have no liablity for any actions taken based upon the content of this podcast.

1. The Importance of the Sign 2. The Salvation in the Sign 3. The Present Testimony of the Sign This sermon explores the theological significance of baptism as a divine sign and seal that guarantees the believer's cleansing from sin through Christ's blood and the Holy Spirit. Drawing primarily from Titus 3 and the Heidelberg Catechism Lords Day 26 and 27, the preacher emphasizes that baptism signifies God's initiative in justification and sanctification rather than human effort or mere memorialization. The message warns against various doctrinal errors, including Roman Catholic sacramentalism, Zwinglian symbolism, and Baptist restrictions on mode and subject. It further clarifies that baptism establishes a covenant relationship, marking membership in the church and separation from the world while assuring believers of God's enduring friendship. The preacher urges the congregation to view this sacrament as a present testimony of grace, encouraging daily reliance on its promises for spiritual strength and comfort.

This week, news that didn't make the news, from Palestine. First up, I sit down with Palestinian writer and researcher Nadine Sayegh to discuss her latest piece State, Soldiers, and Systematic Sadism: The Israeli Military's Normalization of Sexual Violence. Nadine explains the Israeli hasbara tactic of purple-washing, the global Norths violent feminism, and the confluence of sex and genocidal violence. We discuss the medias failure to place accountability on systems, suggesting that the problem, much like with the US own torture programs, is just a few bad eggs. Next up, associate editor at the Electronic Intifada Nora Barrows Friedman comes back on the show to discuss the latest news from Palestine: what's the story with Hamas stepping down, as concentration camps are constructed inside the concentration camp of Gaza, and as the so-called ceasefire continues to be violently broken by Israel daily? Nora also discusses the most recent violent escalations of settler violence in the occupied West Bank, and the medias continued failure to cover it, and if they do, to cover it only from the side of Israeli propaganda. Nadine N. Sayegh is a Palestinian multidisciplinary writer and researcher focusing on the Arab-speaking world. Her work spans gender, geopolitics, human security, and the Occupied Palestinian Territories. She holds an MA in Media and the Middle East from SOAS, London, and a Doctorate in Philosophy from the University of Toulouse (Jean-Jaurs), where her dissertation examined multiscalar gendered oppression in Palestine and Jordan. Her research and commentary have been featured in scholarly and journalistic venues, with select works translated internationally. Nora Barrows Friedman is an associate editor at Electronic Intifada and the co-host of their weekly livestream. The News That Didn't Make the News. Each week, co-hosts Mickey Huff and Eleanor Goldfield conduct in depth interviews with their guests and offer hard hitting commentary on the key political, social, and economic issues of the day with an emphasis on critical media literacy.

August is when the real work for November begins. In this episode of The Fall Podcast, I'm breaking down everything I'm doing right now to get ready for whitetail season. From deploying Moultrie trail cameras and glassing fields from the truck in the evenings to trying to track down two bucks I'm pretty sure survived last season, August is all about gathering information and getting prepared. I'm also putting in a 2-acre Vitalize food plot, fine-tuning my bow and arrow setup, testing broadheads, and putting plenty of arrows downrange. This is the time of year to find out if your equipment is truly ready—not when a mature buck is standing at 20 yards. We'll also get into the less exciting but equally important preparation: washing and organizing my hunting camo, storing it with earth scent wafers, dialing in my hunting pack, and setting up the Flyer Pack as my self-filming pack for the upcoming season. And there's still plenty of work to do in the woods, including prepping trees, clearing shooting lanes, and setting up ambush locations with November in mind. The season may still be weeks away, but the preparation is already underway. If you want to be ready when opening day finally arrives, August is the time to start putting in the work. In this episode: Moultrie trail camera deployment Evening glassing and summer buck patterns Tracking down two bucks that may have survived last season Preparing a 2-acre Vitalize food plot Fine-tuning your bow and arrow setup Testing broadheads and shooting your hunting setup Washing and organizing hunting camo Storing hunting clothes with earth scent wafers Dialing in your hunting pack Setting up the Flyer Pack for self-filming Preparing trees and ambush locations Getting mentally and physically ready for deer season The season doesn't start on opening day.

Corporate AI has spent years rewarding flashy announcements, dubious layoffs, and shallow use cases. But the arrival of powerful open models—and a much more sophisticated conversation about routing, customization, costs, and organizational redesign—may finally make AI washing harder to sustain.

Have you ever finished dinner, told yourself you were completely done eating…and then found yourself searching the cupboard for chocolate, cookies, chips, or anything else you could find? You're not alone—and it may have much less to do with hunger or willpower than you've been led to believe. In this episode of Living Life Naturally, Lynne is joined by life and weight loss coach and Havening Techniques® practitioner Nan Saysana. Nan helps women understand and change the emotional patterns behind nighttime overeating and binge eating. Nan knows the shame and frustration of this cycle personally. She once spent much of her day thinking about what she had eaten, what she shouldn't eat, and how she could finally regain control around food. Lynne also shares her own candid experience of bringing Cadbury chocolate home from England, hiding it in the freezer, and becoming fiercely protective if anyone else dared to touch it. Although humorous in hindsight, the secrecy, guilt, and feeling of being out of control were very real. Together, Lynne and Nan discuss why food urges may be messages rather than the actual problem—and why curiosity and compassion can accomplish far more than criticism. In This Episode You'll discover: Why nighttime eating isn't always caused by physical hunger How pressure, stress, loneliness, and overwhelm can trigger food urges Why food becomes associated with comfort from an early age How guilt and shame can keep women isolated and stuck Why restriction and willpower often fail to address the underlying problem How repeated overeating can affect your trust in yourself Why Nan encourages women to become "curious instead of furious" How thoughts influence emotions, actions, and results The connection between emotional regulation and eating habits How coaching, Havening Techniques®, and hypnosis may be used together A simple way to check in with your emotions throughout the day Why small, manageable changes can create long-lasting results A Kinder Question to Ask Yourself After overeating, it's easy to respond with: "Why did I do that again?" But the tone behind that question matters. Instead of asking from a place of anger, disappointment, or judgment, Nan recommends becoming a curious detective. Gently explore what was happening before you reached for the food. Were you stressed? Lonely? Exhausted? Overwhelmed? Still carrying the pressure of your workday? Or were you trying to extend a happy or comforting feeling? The goal isn't to excuse what happened. It's to understand it—because understanding gives you an opportunity to respond differently next time. Try This Simple Emotional Check-In Choose something you already do several times a day, such as: Turning on the kettle Washing your hands Filling your water bottle Walking into the kitchen Use that familiar action as a reminder to pause and ask: "How am I feeling right now?" You don't need the perfect answer. Simply noticing whether you feel good, unsettled, pressured, or overwhelmed can help you recognize and support your emotions before they build into an intense nighttime urge. As Lynne and Nan discuss, it's often the smallest steps—repeated consistently—that begin creating meaningful change. Free Resources From Nan Saysana "I Just Ate Dinner. Why Do I Want More?"

She now helps women explore the emotions and thought patterns beneath their food urges so they can enjoy foods—including chocolate—without fear.

In this "Follow-Up" mini-episode, Dr. Mona revisits the topic of starting solids and baby-led weaning with guest Jenna Helwig—Food Director at Real Simple magazine and author of Baby-Led Feeding (paid link). Together, they bust common feeding myths, share simple meal prep hacks, and discuss how to take the guilt and pressure out of feeding your baby. Whether you're team puree, team baby-led weaning, or doing a bit of both, this episode is a reminder that responsive feeding and a stress-free environment matter far more than rigid rules. Purees and finger foods can coexist: Combining purees with baby-led weaning is safe and does not make a baby more likely to choke. Responsive feeding matters most: Regardless of the feeding method, the priority is respecting your baby's pace and cues when they show they are full or need a break. Baby-led weaning isn't a guarantee against picky eating: Picky eaters can develop using any feeding style, so focus on creating a pressure-free environment instead. You don't need to cook new meals daily: Simplify mealtime by serving simple, single-ingredient foods like eggs and avocado, or by offering leftovers. Cook one meal for the whole family: Save time and stress by adjusting the texture or salt content of your own meal for the baby rather than short-order cooking. Prep vegetables early in the week: Washing and chopping vegetables ahead of time makes it effortless to add healthy options to busy weeknight dinners. Prioritize meal planning over heavy meal prepping: Planning just four dinners a week removes the mental fatigue of deciding what to cook every evening. Drop the mealtime guilt: Releasing rigid expectations and lowering stress allows both you and your baby to actually enjoy mealtimes together. Want more? Listen to the full, original episode.

In DTWOL… Washing… We know every day... it's obvious that our hands, clothes, or body need washing—but what about the stains that cling to one's heart? In this episode… we dive beneath the surface of outward cleanliness and allow the living and active Word of the only true God to reveal humanity's true spiritual condition. Through Scripture, we discover that sin leaves its fingerprints upon every heart, but the only true God lovingly exposes our wounds—not to shame, humiliate, or condemn us—but to heal us through Jesus Christ.Join us as we dive into the only true God's gracious invitations to "Come," His searching examination of the heart, His promise of a new spiritual heart, and the cleansing power of the blood of Jesus. Discover why Jesus is not merely the One who points out the stain... He is the One who removes it. And learn why discipleship is not about pretending we've never become dirty, but continually coming to the One who faithfully washes, restores, and transforms His disciples for His pleasure and glory. Amen?Word of God: Key Chapters... Ezekiel 36; Psalm 51; Isaiah 1; John 3; Psalm 139; 1 John 1; John 13; Additional Scripture references are woven throughout the Godcast and can be gleaned from the full transcript.

What did the Nauvoo Temple endowment look like in its earliest form? In this episode of Mormonism Live, Bill Reel and Radio Free Mormon examine one of the earliest published firsthand accounts of the Nauvoo Temple ceremony: Catherine Lewis’s 1848 narrative. Written only a few years after the events it describes, Lewis’s account provides a remarkable window into the temple rituals, secrecy, and theological ideas circulating during the Nauvoo period. Together we’ll explore:The earliest known form of the Mormon endowment Washing and anointing ordinancesNew names, signs, tokens, and the veilThe Garden of Eden drama and progression through the kingdomsHow Lewis connects temple secrecy with plural marriageHeber C. Kimball’s role in her narrativeThe Law of Adoption and priesthood authorityEarly teachings surrounding Native Americans and “white and delightsome”How Lewis’s account compares with William Clayton, the Nauvoo Expositor, John C. Bennett, Martha Brotherton, and other contemporary sources We’ll also examine Catherine Lewis herself—what we know, what we don’t know, and how historians evaluate the credibility of an early eyewitness whose account repeatedly intersects with other Nauvoo-era evidence. Whether you’re interested in Mormon history, the development of temple worship, or the origins of plural marriage, this episode takes a careful, source-based approach to one of the most significant primary documents from the Nauvoo period.

This week we talk about cyclospora, FoodNet, and Taylor Farms.We also discuss iceberg lettuce, Taco Bell, and foodborne pathogens.Recommended Book: Babel by R.F. KuangTranscriptFoodborne pathogens cause about 48 million illnesses and around 3000 deaths in the US alone each year.The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is the main agency tasked with keeping those numbers as low as possible, and the CDC's Foodborne Diseases Active Surveillance Network, or FoodNet, is one way that they've tackled this pernicious, persistent problem since 1995, in partnership with the Food and Drug Administration, the US Department of Agriculture, and 10 state health departments: those of California, Colorado, Connecticut, Georgia, Maryland, Minnesota, New Mexico, New York, Oregon, and Tennessee.Collectively, this FoodNet network covers about 16% of the US population, which seems like a small number, and in some ways it is, but that grid of laboratories and surveillance sites has typically been capable of detecting foodborne problems before they've scaled-up into something more significant, growing from a localized issue into a nationwide outbreak. They're generally not capable of preventing them outright, but they can keep them relatively small and regionalized.FoodNet was created in response to a series of huge, deadly E. coli outbreaks in 1992 and 1993, and in contrast to other common methods of detection, which are usually passive and thus a little slow to respond to potential outbreak indicators, this program was built around active surveillance methods, which means proactively gathering data from medical treatment records, hospitalizations, and even individual patient outcomes (including their travel history)—anything they can pair with diagnostic samples to better understand the context surrounding the products that contain dangerous pathogens—and this was intended to help them move faster to identify issues, triangulate the source of those issues, and then implement measures to solve these issues before they harm a bunch of people, as happened during another round of E. coli outbreaks in 2012 and 2013, which sickened dozens of people across multiple states, about half of the afflicted requiring hospitalization, in addition to at least one known death.At its height, FoodNet tracked 9 pathogens, so it cast a pretty broad net, encompassing the most common and dangerous of these potential vectors, including listeria, campylobacter, shigella, vibrio, yersinia, cyclospora, cryptosporidium, e coli, and salmonella.In July of 2025, as part of a larger wave of sweeping cuts across the nation's safety nets, tracking systems, and scientific agencies, the CDC, under the second Trump administration, downgraded FoodNet so that it was only mandatory to track salmonella and E coli—the rest were no longer on the docket, because these agencies no longer had the budget to keep tracking them.What I'd like to talk about today is a recent, and as of the day I'm recording this ongoing, outbreak of cyclospora-induced cyclosporiasis, what we know about this outbreak, and what might happen next.—Cyclospora cayetanensis is a protozoan that can infect human beings, and which is usually transmitted via contaminated fruits and vegetables. This contamination is typically the consequence of inadequate sanitation standards, as it's not transmitted via coughing or blood or anything like that, it's carried via human feces.So this parasite gets into a human, sporulates, which means it releases a bunch of spores within its host, and then usually between 1 and 2 weeks after entering its new host, the host develops cyclosporiasis, the disease caused by cyclospora producing all those spores. This disease is notorious for sometimes causing what's colorfully called explosive diarrhea, alongside general watery bowel movements, intense cramping and severe gas and bloating, and that's sometimes paired with nausea, vomiting, fever, and dehydration, due to all the frequent, intense, watery bowel-movement-related output.This is how cyclospora reproduces and spreads: it infects a host, that host has urgent diarrhea for a while, usually more than two days, sometimes as long as several weeks or even a month or more, with all the pain and discomfort and life-disrupting issues you might assume from that sort of persistent symptom, and then it sometimes finds new hosts via that watery output.Sometimes, cyclospora works its way into food systems because sanitation standards at a particular farm will be not good. Specifically, workers will sometimes not be allowed to take restroom breaks, and they'll simply do their business right there in the field; so if they're sick and can't afford to take a sick day, and might be fired if they do, or if they're asymptomatic, which some people infected with cyclospora are, they might do their business in the field, unaware that waste can then go on to spread this pathogen into the food system. It's also possible that someone just doesn't wash their hands properly after using the rest room, and then gets back to work, picking vegetables or operating at some other level along the food processing and packaging assembly line, and it gets into the system that way.In a typical year, the United States records around 2,700 confirmed cases of cyclosporiasis, though on occasion it's as low as just a few hundred cases, the majority of which show up in health records in the Spring and Summer, between May and August. That range includes relatively mild outbreaks, so while this is a persistent issue, it's also not generally a massive one, at least compared to other pathogens of note. It's not pleasant for those who come down with it, of course, but not something that has triggered an organized response from the top, because of its meager scale, and because (again, while super unpleasant) people with healthy immune systems generally recover without treatment, even if that recovery can take a while. The biggest risk for most people who catch this disease is dehydration, though immunocompromised people are also sometimes given antibiotics by their doctors, the typical dosage curing about 96% of the people who receive it.There was a larger-than-usual outbreak of cyclosporiasis in the US in 2020, which caused a confirmed 1,241 cases across the country, a whole lot to land all at once, and there were no reported deaths resulting from that outbreak. Between 2018 and 2021, there were about 6,000 total confirmed cases across the US, so an average of about 2000 per year.As of mid-July 2026, the CDC has officially confirmed 1,645 cases of this illness, with another 5,100 probable or potential cases currently under investigation. If the majority of those still-under-investigation cases are confirmed, that would mean more people have already been infected as a result of this one outbreak in the first half of 2026 than were infected between 2018 and 2021, which again, is a range that includes the large outbreak that happened in 2020.Also worth noting about those numbers: that's federal-level, CDC reporting, and it's generally understood that there's a significant lag between local-level data and those that have percolated up to the national level. As of the day I'm recording this, Michigan's health agencies alone have more than 5,000 confirmed and suspected cases, Ohio has nearly 1,200, and other states, which are still investigating, are seeing dozens of confirmed cases, including 43 in Wisconsin, 69 in Maryland, and a few already, in the early stages of investigation, in Nevada.Over the past week, officials flagged shredded lettuce sourced from Mexico and sold by a company called Taylor Farms as the likely source of at least some of these cases, and that's led to a recall on lettuce produced by the company in 27 states. Over the weekend, the CDC found cyclospora in iceberg lettuce from the company's Mexican operations, as well, and this lettuce was part of a batch that wasn't included in the recall—so there's a good chance the recall will expand beyond the currently targeted products, which include shredded lettuce destined for Taco Bell locations in five states, and the kitchens of several other fast food chains, as well.Taylor Farms is one of the largest producers of fresh fruits and vegetables in the United States, and their products are sold all over the place, from lower-end fast food restaurants to more expensive grocery stores like Whole Foods.Taylor Foods has announced that it's voluntarily removing all iceberg lettuce sourced from central Mexico from shelves, even though none of its branded, in-store salad kits have been clearly tied to the outbreak, and Taco Bell has said that it's voluntarily removing all potentially affected lettuce from its locations in the five most-impacted states, indefinitely removing lettuce sourced from the implicated supplier; other brands are following suit, no one wanting to be associated with this outbreak, but everyone wanting to show would-be customers that they're taking it seriously.Interestingly, the FDA doesn't actually require that Taylor Foods tell the public who their products go to—which other entities might be selling infected produce. So they've released lists of product numbers, and again, many of their customers are taking the initiative to announce the removal of this lettuce from their shelves or food, without being prompted, but there's still some fog-of-war here, because of Taylor Foods' decision not to be clearer with that product list.So this is already the largest recorded cyclospora outbreak in US history, there have been 141 confirmed hospitalizations from the CDC, and that number is likely larger, again because it takes a while for state-level numbers to work their way up to the CDC, and to be reconfirmed at that level. Also important to note here is that a lot, perhaps even the majority of people who suffer from cyclosporiasis will never show up in these data, because they just suffer silently, either not realizing they have this parasite, or not seeing the point of going to the hospital, maybe paying an arm and a leg to do so, just to get prescribed anti-diarrheal medication and told to take fluids, same as they can do at home. People who do have any kind of immunodeficiency issues or potentially confounding factors, like being older or very young, are being encouraged to seek medical help, though, as they're more likely to suffer more serious consequences after contracting this disease.It's currently unclear where precisely this outbreak came from, and it's puzzling how an outbreak of this scale might have happened, as, in the words of Matthew Moore, a food safety microbiologist at the University of Massachusetts Amherst who was quoted in the New York Times, this many infections suggest there was a “massive degree of human fecal contamination.” So probably not just a farm laborer who forgot to wash their hands after using the rest room, something much more substantial than that.Also, because cyclospora takes a while, a week or two, to create enough spores in its host to trigger cyclosporiasis, attribution of the infection difficult, which in turn makes tracking it back to its source difficult; which is part of why this outbreak, which has been going on for weeks, is still under investigation, not a solved problem with definitive answers and in-practice solutions.Right now, experts are recommending higher-risk foods are cooked to at least 158 degrees F, because that temperature kills this pathogen, and washing fresh produce doesn't always get rid of all the cyclospora on a contaminated piece of produce. Washing fresh produce certainly helps, and it's better than nothing, and scrubbing is even better. They also recommend avoiding high-risk foods when possible, though of course that won't always be possible for everyone, nor will it always be possible to get heads of lettuce rather than pre-made salads, though that's also advised when feasible.Also worth noting here is that even if the FoodNet program was still up to full power, tracking all 9 of those original pathogens, it's unlikely this outbreak would have been prevented.It likely would have flagged that something was up earlier on in this outbreak, though, which could have led to faster action in the afflicted regions. It probably would have allowed professionals to note hot spots faster, as well, which is what this kind of surveillance system is for: it doesn't prevent, but it does make it more likely experts will have the chance to keep things from spiraling out of control.Show Noteshttps://www.nytimes.com/2026/07/16/well/cyclospora-taylor-farms-lettuce-taco-bell.htmlhttps://www.nytimes.com/2026/07/15/well/eat/cyclospora-stomach-bug-what-to-know.htmlhttps://www.nytimes.com/2026/07/17/business/cyclospora-taylor-farms-lettuce.htmlhttps://www.nytimes.com/2026/07/17/well/eat/lettuce-safety-cyclospora-outbreak.htmlhttps://www.nytimes.com/2026/07/17/health/cyclospora-taylor-farms-mexico-taco-bell-lettuce.htmlhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclosporiasishttps://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8471761/https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/00494755261437456https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2026/jul/16/diarrhea-outbreak-cyclospora-parasite-cdchttps://www.cdc.gov/cyclosporiasis/php/surveillance/index.htmlhttps://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/health/expert-qa/cyclosporiasis-outbreakhttps://www.forbes.com/sites/maryroeloffs/2026/07/17/taco-bell-warned-investors-about-cyclospora-before-the-outbreak-and-these-other-chains-did-too/https://www.today.com/health/disease/cyclosporiasis-outbreak-foods-avoid-map-cases-parasite-diarrhea-2026-rcna588006http://cnn.com/2026/07/18/health/cyclospora-what-to-do-wellnesshttps://www.statnews.com/2025/12/22/american-food-safety-funding-cuts-foodnet/https://www.cidrap.umn.edu/foodborne-disease/cdc-cuts-back-foodborne-illness-surveillance-programhttps://www.nbcnews.com/health/health-news/cdc-quietly-scaled-back-surveillance-program-foodborne-illnesses-rcna227089https://www.thelancet.com/journals/langas/article/PIIS2468-1253(25)00305-X/fulltexthttps://www.cdc.gov/foodnet/about/index.htmlhttps://www.food-safety.com/articles/10646-cdc-slashes-foodnet-surveillance-from-eight-foodborne-pathogens-to-twohttps://www.thermofisher.com/blog/food/foodnet-active-surveillance-for-food-safety/https://www.nytimes.com/2026/07/18/health/taylor-farms-iceberg-lettuce-recall.htmlhttps://apnews.com/article/cyclospora-lettuce-recall-taylor-farms-taco-bell-8c8bb30fbd100e0c246cffeff6983753 This is a public episode.

Washing Yourself During "Shavua She-Hal Bo" by Rabbi Avi Harari

In this short podcast episode, Bryan talks about considerations for washing commercial coils and water challenges techs might face. Despite being the topic of debate within the last several years, cleaning coils matters and will affect performance. When washing coils, we use Refrigeration Technologies Viper cleaners (especially Venom Packs) when we actually need cleaners. No matter which cleaner you use (or if you don't), you want some pressure and a high flow rate when rinsing, but keep in mind that some pressure-washers may produce too much pressure and too little flow; the sweet spot is around 300 PSI, and microchannel coils require extra caution.  In terms of commercial maintenance contracts, we often have a lot of coils to wash and may not have adequate water access for the job. We find that the best move is to ask the client to install plumbing infrastructure that allows for better water access. If they refuse, you can increase the labor charge due to extra hose setups, reduced pressure, etc. The client must also be able to provide safe access to the coils; do not write a proposal or carry out a maintenance procedure if techs cannot carry out the work safely.  Strict chemical policies are important, too. Water-first approaches are best; if a water wash is sufficient, use just water and only escalate to chemicals if there is a clear need for a stronger cleaning. If you use chemical cleaners, use the proper dilution ratio; over-concentrated cleaners can damage coils. Chemicals also require more rinsing, and it's more economical to do as little rinsing as possible. Pre-rinsing, adding cleaner from bottom to top, letting the cleaner dwell, and rinsing off is the ideal sequence. If you encounter water challenges on the ground, you can use a ground-based water trailer with a high-output, low-pressure washer attached. If the issue is on the roof, a battery-powered washer can help (like the Dewalt 20V MAX cordless power cleaner); they draw from vessels of water, like 5-gallon jerricans. Remove the casing if you need to (making sure the client pays for that additional labor), and rinse from the inside out.   Learn more about Refrigeration Technologies cleaners at https://www.refrigtech.com/.  Have a question that you want us to answer on the podcast?
