  • Chlorine Vs. Chlorine Bleach: What’S the Difference?
    Chlorine vs. Chlorine Bleach: What’s the Difference? By Bruce K. Bernard, PhD, and Stephen A. Hubbs, PE October 16, 2020 In a nutshell… The terms “chlorine” and “chlorine bleach” are not always used accurately in reporting emergency incidents in which elemental chlorine gas or liquid chlorine bleach escape their containers. These two substances have different chemical and physical properties and represent different potential risks to human health. This article explains the differences between the substances and highlights the importance of accurate reporting on chemical incidents. A recent emergency at a Baltimore water filtration plant highlights the importance of using accurate terms when reporting chemical incidents. According to a media report, on September 16, fire crews responded to a “chlorine leak” at the Lake Montebello Water Filtration Plant. The same article notes that residents living in the neighborhood of the filtration plant were asked to shelter in place as firefighters investigated a “chlorine spill” from the filtration plant. Fortunately, there were no injuries resulting from the incident, but the words chosen to describe the event were misleading. A chlorine “spill,” implies a liquid flowing from the facility; a chlorine “leak” is less specific regarding the state of matter (e.g., liquid or gas). In reality, chlorine gas had escaped into the air, requiring a response 1/3 gallon of 7.5% strength chlorine bleach significantly different than for a spill of chlorine bleach.

Chlorine is a naturally occurring chemical element that is extremely reactive (meaning it will react easily with other elements).

  • Hyper-Realistic Face Masks: a New Challenge in Person Identification
    Sanders et al. Cognitive Research: Principles and Implications (2017) 2:43 Cognitive Research: Principles DOI 10.1186/s41235-017-0079-y and Implications ORIGINAL ARTICLE Open Access Hyper-realistic face masks: a new challenge in person identification Jet Gabrielle Sanders1*, Yoshiyuki Ueda2, Kazusa Minemoto2, Eilidh Noyes1, Sakiko Yoshikawa2 and Rob Jenkins1 Abstract We often identify people using face images. This is true in occupational settings such as passport control as well as in everyday social environments. Mapping between images and identities assumes that facial appearance is stable within certain bounds. For example, a person’s apparent age, gender and ethnicity change slowly, if at all. It also assumes that deliberate changes beyond these bounds (i.e., disguises) would be easy to spot. Hyper-realistic face masks overturn these assumptions by allowing the wearer to look like an entirely different person. If unnoticed, these masks break the link between facial appearance and personal identity, with clear implications for applied face recognition. However, to date, no one has assessed the realism of these masks, or specified conditions under which they may be accepted as real faces. Herein, we examined incidental detection of unexpected but attended hyper- realistic masks in both photographic and live presentations. Experiment 1 (UK; n = 60) revealed no evidence for overt detection of hyper-realistic masks among real face photos, and little evidence of covert detection. Experiment 2 (Japan; n = 60) extended these findings to different masks, mask-wearers and participant pools. In Experiment 3 (UK and Japan; n = 407), passers-by failed to notice that a live confederate was wearing a hyper-realistic mask and showed limited evidence of covert detection, even at close viewing distance (5 vs.

Despite their close economic relationship since 1965, their conflicting historic and political relationships and deep-seated prejudice against each other have continued. The Korean government’s official ban on the direct import of Japanese cultural products existed until 1997, but various kinds of Japanese cultural products, including popular music, found their way into Korea through various legal and illegal routes and influenced contemporary Korean popular culture. Since 1998, under Korea’s Open- Door Policy, legally available Japanese popular cultural products became widely consumed, especially among young Koreans fascinated by Japan’s quintessentially postmodern popular culture, despite lingering resentments towards Japan.
