ENDOCRINE DISRUPTORS PLASTIC IN EVERY OCEAN

"One major mystery: what all these bits of plastic might be doing to us. For every tidbit of understanding we gain about the health consequences of chemicals released by plastics, there remains a gyre-sized quantity of unknowns. But a growing body of evidence suggests some chemicals commonly found in many plastics are associated with everything from cancer to underdeveloped genitalia to obesity." https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2019/feb/19/great-pacific-garbage-patch-women-scientists-plastic?utm_term=RWRpdG9yaWFsX0d1YXJkaWFuVG9kYXlVUy0xOTAyMjA%3D&utm_source=esp&utm_medium=Email&utm_campaign=GuardianTodayUS&CMP=GTUS_email

NECK PAIN

If you’re reading this on a phone, pause and take a second to think about what your neck is doing right now. When your neck is bent 45 degrees forward, you put a weight of about 22 kilograms on the spine. That’s five times the pressure considered normal, and over the course of a year the average smartphone user may rack up an additional 1,000 to 1,400 hours of pressure.

&&&&&&&&&&&&&&PHYSICAL CANCER = FINANCIAL CANCER More than 42 percent of the 9.5 million people diagnosed with cancer from 2000 to 2012 drained their life's assets within two years, according to a study published last year in the American Journal of Medicine. Cancer patients are 2.65 times more likely to file for bankruptcy than those without cancer, and bankruptcy puts them at a higher risk for early death, according to research.

So a couple of readers asked for the sources for info I put in the Wire. Here are most of them. (Coincidental to this listing are the results of this poll about trust in media.   Although there are no comparisons with past polls, the results are startling. The constant attacks on the press by Trump and allies are showing up here. Trust in journalism is declining.) https://www.cjr.org/special_report/how-does-journalism-happen-poll.php/ Washington Post (sub) Daily news, The Cybersecurity 202 newsletterThe Technology 202 newsletter New York Times (sub)Daily news tech newsletter   politics newsletter(and they have some 15 other newsletters) The Guardian (donation) Daily News Herald Review (sub) Daily news Bisbee Observer (buy) Weekly news Arizona Star (sub) Daily news Huffington Post (free) Daily News Mother Jones (sub)bi-monthly Bloomberg News (sub) weekly Wired (sub) LESSER KNOW SOURCES....Vox (free)Politics, policy, culture www.vox.com Quartz (free)A 'guide' to the global economy https://qz.com/about/ Scrap Facts (free)Scientific reporting on subjects primarily those that don't make it into her regular articles. scrapfacts.substack.com/ Motherboard (free)written, video, variety of stuff, lotsa tech https://motherboard.vice.com/en_us   Owned by Vice media....
