EPA Issues New Drinking Water Health Advisories: See Michigan Impacts
3 Health & Fitness Multiple Michigan communities, particularly on the west side of the state were identified as being at risk in the map released by EWG. Dylan Siwicki , Patch Staff Posted Replies MICHIGAN — Human-made “ forever chemicals ” found in water supplies across the country, including in Michigan, are more dangerous than previously thought, and local utilities should install filters to remove them or at least tell customers how dangerous they are, the Environmental Protection Agency said Wednesday. Polyfluoroalkyl and perfluoroalkyl substances, or PFAS, are known as “forever chemicals” because of their durability in high heat and water, which means they remain in the environment for years without breaking down. They’re found in a range of food and consumer products, and have been linked to infertility, thyroid problems and several types of cancer. No state is untouched by PFAS contamination, according to a map … [Read more...] about EPA Issues New Drinking Water Health Advisories: See Michigan Impacts

Chris Pratt’s ‘The Terminal List’ Is an Unhinged Right-Wing Revenge Fantasy
The Terminal List features Chris Pratt going vengefully homicidal due, in part, to a serious mental condition in Amazon’s latest, which follows in the tradition of Jack Ryan and Jack Reacher by delivering gung-ho macho action-drama tailor-made for fortysomething Call of Duty players . Still, if this adaptation of Jack Carr’s novel mostly fits itself into a particular dad-entertainment streaming niche, it also, to a large extent, comes off as a wet dream for militia-minded anti-establishment kooks, replete with a Pratt performance as a Navy SEAL who responds to injustice by murdering the guilty with extreme prejudice. Given its suggestion that slaughtering your powers-that-be enemies for a righteous revenge cause is totally OK and very cool, the morality of showrunner David DiGilio and executive producer/director Antoine Fuqua’s eight-part series (July 1) is, let’s say, lacking. There’s some serious danger to The Terminal List , courtesy of its excessive take on the … [Read more...] about Chris Pratt’s ‘The Terminal List’ Is an Unhinged Right-Wing Revenge Fantasy

The future is now. The pieces are in place. The Avalanche will again be Stanley Cup-or-bust next season
The window to win remains open. Wide open. After winning its first Stanley Cup in 21 years, the Colorado Avalanche may just be getting started. “That’s a great team over there,” Tampa Bay captain Steven Stamkos said. “They deserve it as the champs.” The Avs now aim to follow the Lightning as the NHL’s next back-to-back champions. “They win two Cups and they’re back in the Final again. I have to tip my hat again because I don’t know how they did it,” Avalanche coach Jared Bednar said of the Lightning. “I’m just starting to figure it out now and I think our players have, too. There’s a tremendous amount of respect there; they’ve been the benchmark that we’ve been kind of eyeing as a team that we want to emulate.” Most of Colorado’s core players remain under contract for next season, and many are locked in well beyond that. Among the 13 players under contract for 2022-23 are forwards Mikko Rantanen, Nathan MacKinnon, Gabe Landeskog and defensemen Cale Makar, Devon Toews, Sam … [Read more...] about The future is now.
