all of the fucking annoying ass idiots going on about "aaaa stingrays are dangerous and scary and killed steve irwin" need to shut the fuck up because it's really not helping safety or conservation of these animals in the great barrier reef, which is already difficult because the government here has a hard on for letting agriculture bleach our coral.

stingrays are actually incredibly sweet, lovely creatures. there are innumerable tour guides in countries all over the world that actually INVITE guests to swim with stingrays because of this. You can go to various aquariums in Australia and actually visit a stingray touching and feeding pool, where folks of all ages can reach into the water and pat the stingrays. If you want to know what that feels like - they are incredibly silky and soft.

furthermore, as someone who actually remembers when steve irwin died, im pretty sure most of u spouting this shit are either too young or didn't read any good articles about it because every single one points out that one of the things steve irwin HIMSELF tried to specify is that sting rays are not aggressive creatures and should not be seen as such because this could have massively dangerous effects on the conservation of these animals - think how after jaws came out shark populations were severely affected.

If you didn't know anything past "a stingray killed steve irwin", let me enlighten you on what actually happened:

Irwin was at port douglas in 2006. He'd been filming a series called oceans deadliest. However there was a lull in the weather, making the crew unable to film the series. At the time his daughter, Bindi, age 7, had begun to film smaller tv shows mainly based around health and movement in children. He decided to snorkel in shallow water to film a segment for her show. At about chest-deep water, he came across a stingray and approached it with his crew in order to film it moving away. Just to be clear here from my own personal perspective growing up in a seaside qld town where p much everyone has a boat and has gone snorkeling around stingrays at some point in their lives - this is perfectly normal to do, and usually the stingray just runs away when you get within a metre or so of them. They're extremely skittish and mostly harmless - much like huntsman spiders. However we have to keep in mind that irwin was also surrounded by a film crew, meaning more people and massive equipment on a boat beside him. The stingray was boxed in, not just approached like it usually would have been. I can only guess that Irwin, who had a tendency to get distracted by the animals he interacted with, had a moment of very human forgetfulness, and tried to approach the stingray as if he were on his own. The stingray panicked, and shot its barb before swimming away.

stingray attacks are almost never fatal. Irwin's death was the second stingray-related death in Australia since 1945. However the stingray barb punctured Irwin's heart. He died from traumatic bleeding.

I cannot stress enough how much the legacy of Steve Irwin has been tainted by people becoming vindictive and hateful, even jokingly, towards stingrays. Steve Irwin would have NEVER wanted anyone to BLAME an animal for his death. It was a tragic accident resulting from a moment of human forgetfulness. And as someone who lives in Queensland who grew up around sea creatures, being taught of the dangers of the sea around me and how to interact with it - stingrays are probably the least of your concerns when near one. You are far, FAR more likely to be hurt by a stonefish, a razor clam, a bluering octopus...Growing up, you learn that stingrays are some of nature's most gentle animals. They're skittish, of course - mostly they just run away when people get close. But they're also lovely creatures, and can be socialised to interact with humans.

It still makes me angry and even queasy that after 15 years people - and especially people who are not australians - continue to repeat this blaming rhetoric, and even claim that stingrays are dangerous because of steve Irwin's death. This is the kind of rhetoric that leads to conservation efforts being taken less seriously, something that is desperately needed especially with even more coral bleaching and mass ecosystem destruction being carried out on the great barrier reef each year.

also its a fifteen year old joke about a guy who would've hated it, it isn't funny and it never was.

The Mommy Myth by Susan J. Douglas and Meredith Michaels

“Intensive Mothering” as defined by sociologist Sharon Hays.

“New Momism” originated in 1942 with Philip Wylie’s book Generation of Vipers where he attacked (let’s be real) moms for being smothering and turning their sons, America’s soldiers into weaklings as “Momism”. This new definition refers to a highly romanticized and demanding view of motherhood where standards for success are impossible to meet.

“Intensive mothering insists that mothers acquire professional-level skills such as those of a therapist, pediatrician (’Dr. Mom’), consumer products safety inspector, and teacher, and that they lavish every ounce of physical vitality they have, the monetary equivalent of the gross domestic product of Australia, and, most of all, every single bit of their emotional, mental, and psychic energy on their kids. We must learn to put on the masquerade of the doting, self-sacrificing mother and wear it at all times. With intensive mothering, everyone watches us, we watch ourselves and other mothers, and we watch ourselves watching ourselves. How many of you know someone who swatted her child on the behind in a supermarket because he was, say, opening a pack of razor blades in the toiletries aisle, only to be accosted by someone she never met who threatened to put her up on child-abuse charges?....Motherhood has become a psychological police state.”

“Intensive mothering is the ultimate female Olympics: We are all in powerful competition with each other, in constant danger of being trumped by the mom down the street, or in the magazine we’re reading. The competition isn’t just over who’s a good mother--it’s over who’s the best. We compete with each other; we compete with ourselves. The best mothers always put their kids’ needs before their own, period. The best mothers are the main caregivers. For the best mothers, their kids are the center of the universe. The best mothers always smile. They always understand. They are never tired. They never lose their temper. They never say, ‘Go to the neighbor’s house and play while Mommy has a beer.’ Their love for their children is boundless, unflagging, flawless, total. Mothers today cannot just respond to their kids’ needs, they must predict them--and with the telepathic accuracy of Houdini. They must memorize verbatim the books of all the child-care experts and know which approaches are developmentally appropriate at different ages. They are supposed to treat their two-year-olds with ‘respect’. If mothers screw up and fail to do this on any given day, they should apologize to their kids, because any misstep leads to permanent psychological and/or physical damage. Anyone who questions whether this is the best and the necessary way to raise kids is an insensitive, ignorant brute. This is just common sense, right?”

“According to postfeminism, women now have a choice between feminism and antifeminism and they just naturally and happily choose the latter. And the most powerful way that postfeminism worked to try to re-domesticate women was through the new momism. Here’s the progression. Feminism won; you can have it all; of course you want children; mothers are better at raising children than fathers; of course your children come first; of course you come last; today’s children need constant attention, cultivation, and adoration, or they’ll become failures and hate you forever; you don’t want to fail at that it’s easier for mothers to abandon their work and their dreams than for fathers; you don’t want it all anymore (which is good because you can’t have it all); who cares about equality, you’re too tired; and whoops--here we are in 1954.”

A doozy? Well re-reading this tome made me think of the moms on Stranger Things and the fan reactions to them. I in fact thought of this book because the demands of motherhood have changed since the 1970s when most of the Party where growing up and there was an anti-feminist backlash around that time that culminated in a media that co-opted the idea of feminism and exploited boomer anxiety about raising their kids without the trauma of their childhoods.

Sustainable Alternatives to Razors

Razors are common in almost every bathroom, and are part of our daily grooming routines. Despite the widespread use of these tools, few sustainable alternatives exist. Plastic disposable razors and refills are the norm in most households, and most of them don't get recycled. This means that they end up in landfills for hundreds of years, which is not exactly a green option. There are, however, a few sustainable alternatives.

Safety razors are a good alternative if you are environmentally conscious. Reusable metal razors are the most environmentally friendly way to shave. These are also more comfortable to use, and they produce a close and comfortable cut without causing irritation to the skin. Many natural shaving products are cruelty-free, palm oil-free, and toxin-free. Some brands, such as Leaf Shave, also sell replacement blades.

Feather razor blades are made in Japan and are the best option for men in Australia. They are ultra-sharp and are made for professional shaving and styling. They fit into most shaving razors sold in Australia and can even be used as replacement blades. Japanese blade makers have been making Feather blades for more than 100 years, and they are considered the best shaving razors in the world. For more information about Feather razors, visit the Shaving Market website.

Earths Tribe is an Australian brand of straight razors that offers an eco-friendly, plastic-free shaving routine. The Earths Tribe is a double edge stainless steel razor with a chrome finish. It is the ideal choice for environmentally conscious men who want to reduce their plastic consumption. The company is an ethical company, and they are also 100% Australian-owned. With such a variety of options available, it's hard to decide which one to purchase.

Everyone will carry some electronic and electrical products, such as mobile phones, razors, laptops, chargers, SLR cameras, etc., but the voltage and plug standards of different countries in the world are not the same. Domestic standard plugs cannot be used in most foreign countries. Below we have compiled information on voltages and plugs in countries around the world, so that people who go abroad can prepare in advance.

Overview of voltages in countries around the world

In countries where 220-230V voltage is used, 110-130V voltage is also used, such as Sweden and Russia.

100V: Japan and South Korea;

110-130V: 30 countries including Taiwan, the United States, Canada, Mexico, Panama, Cuba, and Lebanon;

220-230V: China, Hong Kong (200V), Britain, Germany, France, Italy, Australia, India, Singapore, Thailand, Holland, Spain, Greece, Austria, Philippines, Norway about 120 countries.

Plastic. The word on so many people’s lips at the moment. About four years ago, when I came to Australia I became almost obsessed with plastic and reducing my consumption of it. Once you make the connection, you seem to experience an entire paradigm shift and you eventually can’t stop seeing plastic everywhere around you. Plastic packaging is ubiquitous; it’s in coffee cups, inside cereal boxes, on herb and spice containers, around beauty products and probably most infuriatingly of all wrapped around compostable fresh fruit and vegetables.

Plastic is a problem because it never breaks down, it only breaks up into smaller and smaller pieces known as microplastics. These plastics are less than 5mm in diameter and often end up in waterways which lead into lakes and oceans. These microplastics then have a high chance of being ingested by marine creatures because of the difficulty in distinguishing plastic from other food sources such as plankton. The microplastics are indigestible and may impair the digestive organs of marine creatures, this may lead to death from malnutrition, suffocation or decreased mobility. Other problems related to microplastics include the accumulation of plastic and harmful constituents in fish or organisms in higher trophic levels. This accumulation of plastic in higher trophic levels, such as salmon and tuna fish (which are coincidentally some of the most popular for consumption globally) could represent a public health hazard to those who eat fish.

There are many things that you can do on a daily basis to reduce your plastic consumption, these can be as simple as taking your own reusable coffee cup to get your daily dose of caffeine or own taking a reusable cotton shopping bag to the supermarket or if you’re a little more dedicated… shopping at bulk food stores and taking your own glass jars to fill up with pantry staples. Other tips I have found really easy to incorporate are:

* Asking for your drink without a straw (if ordering a juice or smoothie)

* Not getting take away food if possible - eating at home or in a restaurant to reduce all of that plastic packaging and cutlery

* Making my own deodorant (simply from coconut oil, bicarbonate of soda, corn flour and essential oils)

* Buying soap at the bulk food store without packaging

* Taking my own bags to the supermarket

* Using a reusable water bottle and coffee cup

* Using wax wraps and Tupperware in the kitchen instead of cling wrap

* Using a bamboo toothbrush and safety razor for shaving

* Recycling any hard-plastic waste and taking soft-plastic to a local recycling point

The list goes on, and I have by no means reached a perfect zero waste or plastic free lifestyle, but I am consciously trying and that is what really counts. I have probably cut my plastic consumption down to about 10% of what it used to be, and for that I am proud.

I often go for walks along the beach, and whilst sometimes I plan to pick up plastic other times I see one piece I cannot walk by and then end up picking up a couple more handfuls. It doesn’t have to take long, even if you have half an hour to walk along a beach during the week, you can make a massive difference by picking up a couple of handfuls of rubbish. You may pick up five plastic bottles, or 100 pieces of microplastic and that can be the 5 or 100 pieces of plastic no longer destined for the ocean or a fish’s stomach.

In the photos you can see on this day I picked up lots of microplastic, cotton bud/lolly sticks, cigarette butts (which 95% of are made up of cellulose acetate which can take up to 10 years to break down), glow sticks, bottle tops, tape, a peg, the back of swimming goggles, the lids from sushi soy sauce fish, fishing line and other miscellaneous pieces.

Your effort may seem small in comparison to what someone else is doing, but as long as you’re trying your hardest you’ve nothing to worry about. Whenever I think about plastic pollution I always think of this proverb:

We do not inherit the Earth from our ancestors—we borrow it from our children.

I would be proud to leave a planet for future generations which still offers pristine wilderness, beautiful coral reefs, and thriving ecosystems. I believe together we can change our mindset to create a smaller footprint on the earth.

There are a few documentaries you can watch to get you in the mood to reduce your plastic:

* A Plastic Ocean - netflix. Further emphasis on the gravity of the issue.

* Chasing Coral - netflix. Just so you have a picture of what we’re trying to conserve and the other stresses imposed on coral reef ecosystems.

* Before The Flood - netflix. Another to stress the importance climate change and the problems it will cause in the future.

WHERE TO BUY BARBER SHOP ACCESSORIES IN AUSTRALIA

Whether you run your own barber shop or need accessories for essential grooming at home, you need professional equipment to do the best job. There are plenty of options online for barber shop accessories, but if you’re looking for quality you need to go with a brand that you can trust. With many people taking care of their own personal grooming nowadays, you should ensure you buy products that are going to last and give the best results. If you are trying to find professional barber shop accessories in Australia, here are a few tips.

Tips for buying barber shop accessories

Before you make a snap decision, it’s advisable to shop around and look for the best deal. Don’t necessarily opt for the cheapest option, however, as you might lose out on quality. If you’re looking for something that’s long-lasting, check to see if it has a warranty, for example. Avoid sets and packs as well in order to save money unless you need everything in there. It’s often better to spend more on the individual item you require without wasting money on additional barber shop accessories. This way, you’re guaranteed better quality.

If you offer professional barber services, then it’s vital to choose the best products for your clients. It’s definitely worth investing a little the first time around so you’ll be able to achieve the desired results and create good word of mouth for your business in the community.

Check out the range at K5 International

If you’re working as an experienced barber or new to styling, we’ve handpicked the best equipment for you. Our collection of essential barber equipment includes hairdressing combs, razors, brushes, and replacement blades. Our products are suitable for home use but are still salon-quality, so you’ll be able to achieve the results you’re looking for.

Combs and sets

A decent comb is one of the most essential barber shop accessories in your kit. We have a wide variety of unisex hairdressing combs available both individually and as sets. You can either opt for a set of multi-use combs or choose a high-end individual barber comb. Our combs are available in different materials ranging from aluminum to carbon, or wood. We only sell durable combs and comb sets suitable for both professional and personal use.

Razors

Another important tool used by barbers is a quality razor. There are different types of razors, those that are designed for hair removal, hair shaping, and hair thinning. What you use them for depends on the look you’re going for. For beard shaping, a professional hair shaper razor is the most suitable. If you’re looking to shave completely, then you invest in a quality hair removal safety razor. If you need a more delicate tool for eyebrows, hair thinning, or hair slicing, you can opt for a thinning razor comb. We also sell multi-purpose razors with changeable blades.

Shaving accessories

To go with a razor you’re going to need other shaving accessories whether you’re a professional barber or taking care of your personal grooming. A good quality brush is always recommendable. At K5 International we offer a range of shaving brushes in both natural and synthetic materials. These also are available in sets with safety razors. If you use a safety razor it’s always better to buy a better quality one and replace the blades every so often. You can buy single and double edge blades from our online store.

If you run your own barber shop or salon, then there are few other accessories you might need. Look for a non-slip mat as you’ll need somewhere to set up all your tools. These also help protect any surfaces from electronic products are they’re heat-resistant. We also have professional salon water spray bottles and clipper combs for holding longer hair in place.

Whether you’re a professional barber or just want to create an expert look at home, check out our selection of the best barber accessories. Our products at K5 International are affordable without compromising on quality. With free shipping all around the country, you won’t be able to find a better deal for barber shop accessories in Australia.

Infectious Hepatitis (Hepatitis A)

It is one of the biggest organs in our body and also one of the organs that performs the most different functions: the liver is responsible for eliminating toxic substances circulating in our blood, storing and releasing glucose, processing nutrients and medicines, fighting infections, and secreting certain hormones and other essential substances. In short, we can say that it is like the body's chemical factory and performs essential functions for life. For our liver to perform all these functions efficiently, it is essential that we lead healthy lifestyles that prevent chronic diseases such as cirrhosis, but also that we take the necessary precautions to keep viruses such as hepatitis A virus (HAV) at bay. This infectious agent infects liver cells (called hepatocytes) and causes them to become inflamed and destroyed.

Infectious Hepatitis Virus

The virus which causes the disease is classified in the Picornaviridae family, in the hepatovirus genus. Like hepatitis C virus, hepatitis A virus is an RNA-type virus; however, unlike hepatitis C virus, it lacks a lipid envelope. It is resistant to freezing, detergents, and acids. It is inactivated by heat at temperatures above 85°C and by formaldehyde and chlorine.

Transmission

Infectious hepatitis is a disease caused by HAV (hepatitis A virus). It is spread by contact with faeces from a bowel movement, which can occur in several ways:

Eating food prepared by someone who has touched infected faeces.

Drinking water contaminated with infected faeces (very common in developing countries).

Having anal intercourse with an infected person.

The usual route of transmission of infection is faecal-oral; the incubation period after ingestion of the virus is 3-6 weeks; during this period, before the first symptoms of the disease already exist, elimination of the virus by faeces. In countries with poor hygienic-sanitary conditions, infectious hepatitis is more frequently asymptomatic as it usually occurs in children. In developed countries, infectious hepatitis is more frequently symptomatic as it is more likely to occur in adults.

The virus is extremely stable at room temperature and low pH, which ensures its survival both in contaminated water and in transit through the stomach. The hepatitis A virus can survive for long periods in freshwater and seawater. The foods most frequently associated with infectious hepatitis are fresh vegetables and strawberries.

The peak of maximum infectivity occurs during the period of highest virus excretion in faeces, which occurs two weeks before the onset of jaundice and elevated liver enzymes. Viremia is maintained throughout the period of elevated liver enzymes.

Symptoms 

The severity and presence of hepatitis A symptoms are related to the age of the patient. Something like 70% of adults with the virus present symptoms, while 30% of children, where the usual form is asymptomatic. This is extremely important in the management of the disease in the communities.

The pre-icteric phase of 5-7 days duration begins abruptly with high fever, feeling sick, anorexia, nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, and headache. Less frequently, arthralgias, chills, diarrhoea, myalgias, cough, constipation, pruritus and urticaria may occur. Examination reveals splenomegaly, soft hepatomegaly, bradycardia, and posterior cervical lymphadenopathy. The icteric phase lasts 4 to 30 days and is characterized by a progressive increase in conjugated bilirubin, jaundice, and clear clay-like stools. Evolution to chronicity has not been described.

Treatment

Treatment of acute viral hepatitis is largely supportive and aimed at ensuring adequate nutrition and hydration and monitoring patients to prevent the development of fulminant hepatitis. Drug treatment is rarely indicated for acute viral hepatitis A because up to 99% of patients recover without sequelae.

Most patients can be treated out-of-hospital as long as they can maintain adequate hydration and caloric intake. The old indication of bed rest is no longer recommended unless the patient is experiencing severe fatigue.

Prevention 

The World Health Organization establishes three key points to avoid contracting infectious hepatitis: improving sanitation, food safety, and vaccination. Improved sanitation is especially related to water supply, which is one of the most common reservoirs of the virus. Thus, contaminated water can be prevented by adapting appropriate systems for making water potable, disposing of wastewater, or adopting basic hygienic measures such as frequent hand washing.

Vaccination in infants: It is recommended in all infants. The first injection is given anytime between the 4th and 8th week of life, but if the mother is a carrier, it is given 12 hours after birth; the second injection is given between 30 days and two months of age (depending on when the first injection was given).

Vaccination in older children and adults:  Children and adults who have not had the vaccination before can also be vaccinated. Vaccination is given over six months, during which time two injections must be given. But also, this preventive method, which is known as combined vaccination, is especially indicated in:

Travellers in A and B virus endemic areas:  Africa, South America, Eastern Mediterranean, Southeast Asia, China, and the Pacific Islands (except Australia, New Zealand, and Japan).

Male homosexuals with multiple sexual partners.

Injecting drug users.

Hemophilia patients.

Hospital health personnel.

People with chronic liver disease.

Although most children who receive the vaccine have no side effects, minor problems, such as redness or discomfort at the injection site, can sometimes occur. More serious problems associated with the vaccine are very rare.

However, administration of the vaccine is not recommended:

Before any infectious disease is more serious than a cold.

If a severe allergic reaction occurs after a dose of the vaccine.

Finally, to prevent contagion, specialists recommend paying attention to personal care and hygiene. Some recommendations are:

Do not use an infected person's toothbrush or razor or anything else that might have traces of their blood on it.

Make sure that the instruments are clean in case of getting a tattoo or piercing in any part of the body.
