  9. Nearly one thousand people swam across the Danube in Budapest for the first crossing in six years.

    The river was closed to traffic for four hours to make way for the Generali OWT Danube Crossing open-water swim.

  11. 💁🏻‍♀️ TIL: 🪽🌊 Engineers at #MIT and #EPFL built FAAV, a flapping wing #robot that flies through air and swims #underwater using flexible membrane wings.

    The #design mimics how diving #birds move between fluids that differ 800 fold in density. The #research suggests that diving birds prioritize speed over #energy efficiency during underwater wing strokes.

  15. Entanglement and drowning of baby humpback in NSW

    "‘Animal cruelty’: two-year-old humpback whale found dead in NSW shark net causes anger. Absolutely heartbreaking to see a baby humpback whale die like this, especially because its death was totally preventable. It is the first whale to have died out of 15 entangled in shark nets on Australia’s east coast so far this year."

  16. 4/4 Hike & Run in the mountains in #Austria

    On the descent into the valley, I saw a Spanish flag / Jersey tiger (Euplagia quadripunctaria)! It is poisonous to birds, and when threatened, it shows it with its colorful hind wings.

    The finale: swimming in an old-fashioned outdoor pool from 1928!

  17. #MaineCDC Issues Advisories on Eating #FreshwaterFish Due to #PFASContamination at the Former #NavalAirStation in #BrunswickMaine

    Aug 23, 2024

    AUGUSTA -- "The Maine Center for Disease Control and Prevention (Maine CDC) today issued new freshwater fish consumption advisories recommending either no consumption or limited consumption of fish from four waterbodies located on and around the former naval air station in Brunswick, Maine.

    "The testing of fish is part of the United States Navy's ongoing remedial investigation at the former base in response to #environmental contamination from the historic use of PFAS-containing aqueous film forming foam (#AFFF) in fire-fighting operations. Data were collected in October 2023 by the Navy, in coordination with Maine's Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, and shared with the Maine CDC in spring of 2024.

    "The Maine CDC reviewed the data and determined they showed elevated levels of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, known as PFAS, above the agency's recommended levels for regular consumption.

    "While testing occurred before the August 19, 2024 accidental release of AFFF at the former naval air station, that incident is not expected to impact the guidance issued today. The waters likely impacted by the AFFF spill are on the east side of the runway at the air station. Today's advisory recommends a no consumption advisory for those waters based on prior testing data.

    "Elevated levels of the specific PFAS called perfluorooctane sulfonic acid (PFOS) were detected in fish tissue samples collected from #MereBrook (also known as Mare Brook), #MerriconeagStream, #PicnicPond, and #Site8Stream. The new fish consumption advisories listed below apply to all fish caught in these waterbodies.

    "In response to the recent release of AFFF and the reported presence of visible #foam on some of these #waterbodies on the eastern side of the runway, the Maine CDC additionally recommends the public avoid any contact with foam on these water bodies. Out of an abundance of caution, the Maine CDC also recommends the public refrain from any recreational activities (e.g., #swimming, #boating, #wading) that could result in contact with the foam or waters until the potential impact of the AFFF release on these waterbodies is fully assessed.

    "PFAS are a group of man-made chemicals found in a variety of consumer products throughout the world. Based on a report from the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine, exposure to certain PFAS chemicals has been associated with increases in cholesterol levels, decreases in birth weight, lower antibody response to some vaccines, and kidney cancer."

    So, I streamed this duck sim game at twitch.tv/ra_zim and Whiskers saw and suddenly we had 20 duck icons done that night.

    These are open for comm, discounted at $30!

  19. #Introduction #2!

    Like many, my outside interests are many! I #read voraciously (I'll surpass my goal of 75 books this year easily), I'm taking #swimming lessons to properly know how to swim laps, I'm also interested in #tennis lessons. I walk a lot. I had #bariatricsurgery #weightlosssurgery six months ago and I'm down 55 lbs from my highest weight. I have another 60 left to go. I split my time between #Michigan and #Kentucky but we hope to move back to #Michigan permanently.

  20. CW: Moan about a Uni sports competition

    This term's tri-grid challenge starts on Monday. Points for #running, #cycling, #swimming or walking; teams of co-workers; get campus moving... you get the idea.

    The scoring system is unfairly skewed to swimming. To get one point:

    2.5 km run ~ 12.5 min
    5 km cycle ~ 10 min
    100 m swim! ~ 2 min!
    3.5 km walk ~ 35 min

    Not bothered about winning (honest) but a 2 week comp which is over on day 1 after the Uni swim team has had a session is not fun #SoreLoser
