If you come in contact with asbestos, you just gotta deal with it as-best-os you can.

Hey there, guys, Trace here for DNews.

You may have heard of asbestos as this hazardous material that can be found in old homes and

buildings.

It's been used commercially in North America for over 100 years, but now, in 2016, the

EPA is evaluating the material as a "high priority risk" with the potential to ban

it entirely.

So what the heck is this stuff and why is it so dangerous?

Ok first, I'm guessing you, like me, have no idea what asbestos actually is -- other

than a scary carcinogen, right?

Asbestos was first identified in ancient Greece by one of Aristotle's students in 300 BCE.

He noted it looked like rotten wood and had remarkable resistance to fire, even when doused

with oil!

Asbestos isn't a chemical or human-made substance, it's stone -- actually it's

a group of six naturally-occurring silicate minerals found in rock and soil in 900 different

regions of the US alone.

Asbestos is a stronger than steel, soft, fire-resistant mineral, that doesn't biodegrade, decompose,

dissolve in water, or evaporate.

No wonder asbestos is in everything, it's a frickin' wonder-material!

But not all asbestos' are created equal: amosite is 'brown' asbestos, crocidolite

is 'blue' asbestos, and chrysotile is 'white' asbestos.

The other three types come in a variety of colors and are actinolite, anthophyllite and

tremolite.

According to Scientific American, the "strongest and stiffest" are brown, blue and the other

three, but the white asbestos is "softer and more flexible."

Because of that flexibility, the white asbestos is used in 95 percent of asbestos products!

Even though it looks like wood or fibers, again, asbestos is technically a mineral!

It's made of chains of silicon and oxygen atoms with other elements (calcium, iron,

magnesium) incorporated in, which change its properties slightly.

Because of these amazing properties, the asbestos family of minerals have been used in heat-resistant

fabrics, paints and plastics, paper products, car brakes and clutches, and in building materials

such as roofing, siding, flooring and insulation.

And this is where we get to the problems...

While asbestos is basically indestructible under normal circumstances, human bodies are

not.

If asbestos crumbles and gets into the air it breaks into tiny, thin threads, which are

still indestructible, just smaller now…

If those threads become air or waterborne, they can get swallowed or lodged in the lungs,

causing problems.

This is why people who work with asbestos-containing products -- say, in building construction

-- run risks.

They're dealing with a high concentration of the material, and are more likely to get

it in their body.

You'd expect that inhaling fibers would cause symptoms like coughing, sneezing, or

itching, but -- and this is the scary bit -- asbestos inhalation doesn't really have

any symptoms!

It doesn't dissolve, melt or evaporate, and minerals don't have odor!

So you can't see, feel or taste asbestos fibers.

This is why people who work with asbestos have to take special care and use protective

equipment.

You don't want this stuff in your body.

According to OSHA, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, asbestos exposure

is a hazard for about 1.3 million construction workers in the U.S.

The EPA describes asbestos as a "known carcinogen" – that is, a chemical that can cause cancer

after exposure.

The health effects from these indestructible fibers entering the body include several types

of lung cancer, mesothelioma -- a rare form of cancer that develops in the lining of the

lungs -- and asbestosis – a serious, long-term disease of the lungs.

According to a meta-analysis from the journal American Family Physician, there are approximately

200,000 cases in the US of asbestosis annually, and over 6000 deaths from asbestosis, lung

cancer and mesothelioma combined related to asbestos exposure.

We've been regulating asbestos in the United States since the 1970s.We check for it in

"drinking water, schools, some consumer products, and workplace air."

A few uses of asbestos are even banned under existing regulations – like certain paper

products and spray-on materials.

But even if the EPA decides to ban it entirely, there will still be asbestos in places like

old buildings.

It's incredible that this naturally-occurring ancient material has been used so many things

over the centuries and it turns out it was killing us the whole time.

We just have to keep looking for it as-best-os we can.

I had to.

I HAD TO!

If this doesn't cement the myth that just because something is "natural" means it's

safe or good for you, I don't know what will.

I mean, what's really difference between natural and artificial flavors, for example?

2015-2017 Mustang Modern Billet Chrome Underhood Dress-Up Kit (EcoBoost) Review & Install - Duration: 4:07.

What's going on, guys?

I'm Alex from americanmuscle.com, and today I'm bringing you my very quick review and

breakdown of the Modern Billet Underhood Dress-Up Kit, fitting your 2015 through the current

S550 EcoBoost.

So in this video, I'm gonna talk about who this kit might appeal to, the construction

and materials that went into this, what you should expect to be spending, and then we'll

take a very quick look at the installation, even if we can call it that, where I'm gonna

be giving this an incredibly easy 1 out of 3 wrenches in the difficulty meter and less

than 10 minutes to get these on your car.

So no matter how you're looking to modify your S550 EcoBoost, be it inside, outside,

or under your hood for these products in question, one of the things that definitely sticks out

to me on the EcoBoost Mustang is the lack of underhood bling or dress-up.

Now, the guys over at Modern Billet saw this and took the initiative to bring to market

a set of covers and caps here that are not only going to clean up your engine vape but

definitely turn some heads at the same time.

Not only are these gonna be giving your engine compartment a much needed overhaul in terms

of the aesthetics or looks department, but by getting away with these, if you're hunting

for car show points, judges are definitely gonna be keeping an eye on what you're working

with under your hood, and these are gonna be something that they're definitely looking

for.

So in terms of the construction and materials here, guys, it's evident right out of the

box that these are definitely very well-built parts.

We're gonna see that the team over at Modern Billet is gonna have these manufactured predominantly

of the 6061-T6 billet aluminum series.

Additionally, these will be then triple chrome plated to a really nice mirror polish shine,

which in my opinion is going to mesh very well with some of the mundane trim underneath

your hood.

Not only that, that finish is gonna be there for a long-lasting look, so you can rest easy

knowing that these aren't going to pit or tarnish over time.

But the general rule of thumb, it's always a good idea to throw a little bit of polish

on there every now and then just to make sure they're in tiptop condition.

So in terms of what you're gonna be getting with this kit, I know it's a little bit tough

to see from the table and where you're watching this from, but you're gonna be getting away

with a radiator fluid cap cover, a brake fluid cap cover, as well as a windshield wiper fluid

cap cover.

So taking a quick look at the pricing here, you should expect to be spending only about

$100 for this kit, which in my opinion is a small price to pay to give your underhood

compartment some much needed good looks as well as an overhaul, as the factory equipment

that came on the EcoBoost is a little bit on the bland and bordering mundane side.

Again, for the cost here, guys, you're gonna be getting three solid pieces here that are

gonna be very well-built as well as coming in at a very high polish shine, which in my

opinion is definitely going to set off your underhood compartment.

So switching gears to the installation portion of the video, just like I had said at the

top, you're looking at an incredibly easy 1 out of 3 wrenches in the difficulty meter

and less than probably 10 minutes to get these under your car, and it's definitely gonna

be one of those easier installs out there for any motorhead looking to incorporate a

bunch of much-needed flair under their hood.

Now, the two caps that I have here on your left hand side are going to install a little

bit differently than that one right here, and that's gonna be due to the 3M double-sided

adhesive on the underside here.

Now, this kit is going to come with a supplied alcohol swab, and that's gonna be used to

assure that there's no type of grease particulates, anything that's coming up off of the road

or from your engine compartment on to the caps, as these are going to stick directly

over top of them.

Now, with this cap right here, you're essentially just going to be swapping out your existing

cap and putting this right in place.

Again, very simple, one out of three wrenches and less than five minutes to get this on

to your car, and it does not get any easier than that.

All right, guys, so just to wrap things up, here are some final thoughts.

If you're the 2015 through the current S550 EcoBoost donor and you're not too thrilled

with just how bland your underhood compartment is looking, this kit is definitely gonna be

for you.

So that's my quick review and breakdown for the Modern Billet Underhood Dress-up Kit for

the 2015 through the current EcoBoost Mustang available right here at americanmuscle.com.

Jalapeno Cheese Ball Recipe - Amy Lynn's Kitchen - Duration: 2:26.

[Amy: Creator] Happy New Year!

[pop] [background music]

I'm Amy!

And today I'm making a jalapeno cheese ball.

This is an easy recipe that combines cheddar cheese,

cream cheese, red bell pepper and jalapeno pepper.

It makes a colorful and flavorful party food.

So let's get started!

In a mixing bowl, add two 8 ounce packages of cream cheese, softened.

8 ounces of shredded sharp cheddar cheese.

1/2 cup of diced red bell pepper.

And 1/3 cup of diced jalapeno pepper.

Now mix this together until it is well blended.

Then form the mixture into a ball.

Now wrap the cheese ball in plastic wrap and refrigerate it until it sets up.

While the cheese ball is chilling, chop enough pecans to make 1 cup

and then set aside.

After the cheese ball has chilled, roll it in your chopped pecans

until it is completely covered.

And then serve it with your favorite crackers.

And here it is... jalapeno cheese ball.

And you can make this recipe as spicy as you like,

by either removing all of the jalapeno seeds,

or you can leave some of them or all of them.

For this recipe and many more, check out my website at

amylynnskitchen.com.

We would like to wish everyone a very Happy New Year!

Top 5 Canadian Athletes of 2016 | CBC Sports - Duration: 2:29.

News flash: Sports fans love to argue.

And I, for one, have never seen a more fierce argument than that

of the best Canadian athlete of 2016.

It's great if you're a Canadian sports fan.

We had it so good

that the people you're seeing on the screen right now

didn't even crack our Top 5.

So let's get to the athletes that did.

Number 5: Brooke Henderson.

You heard me.

Someone who won a major, had 15 top-10 finishes,

was an Olympian and shot to the number two spot in the world rankings...

.... is only number five on this list.

Side note: she accomplished all of that

before her 19th birthday.

Number four: Aurelie Rivard came into 2016

with very high expectations.

She headed to Rio,

won four medals -- three of which were gold --

and rewrote the record books along the way.

Four Canadian records, two world records and one Paralympic record.

Even the Royal Family gave her a shout-out!

I'm not sure if Sidney Crosby could have done anything more in 2016.

No player in hockey has scored more points since January 1st.

He led the Pittsburgh Penguins through the playoffs and to a Stanley Cup victory over

the Sharks, then led Team Canada to a World Cup victory in September.

THAT is why he's number three.

On to number 2.

For Andre De Grasse,

2016 was all about introducing himself to the world.

He made history by becoming the first Canadian ever to medal in all three sprint events at

an Olympic Games, with a bronze in the 100,

silver in the 200

and a bronze in the relay.

But come on, when people think of Andre De Grasse in 2016,

they will think of the passing torch from Usain Bolt.

Well that, and their bromance.

Which brings us to number one.

Not too many people knew who Penny Oleksiak was before the Olympic Games began,

but she became a household name

when she became the first Canadian ever to win

four medals at a Summer Games

and the youngest Olympic champion in Canadian history.

And she got Drake tickets by sending out a tweet,

and won the Lou Marsh Award as Canada's top athlete of 2016.

So there you have it.

Our top five Canadian athletes of 2016.

I need you to take this video and send it to all of your friends,

and let the arguing begin.

Have a happy new year.

►►Samsung Galaxy A3 Review:Finally a Good Samsung Budget Phone???►► - Duration: 3:00.

Samsung Galaxy A3 review: Finally a good Samsung budget phone?

WHAT IS THE GALAXY A3?

Everybody is talking about the Galaxy S7 and the Galaxy S7 Edge, but these flagship phones

don't come cheap.

If you aren't bothered about 4K video, fingerprint readers or quad-HD screens then the Galaxy

A3 might be right up your street.

The Galaxy A3 is a surprisingly capable mid-range phone.

You get the classy, glass and metal body introduced by last year's Galaxy S6, a vibrant 4.7-inch

AMOLED screen and above-average battery life for half the price of Samsung's top-end

Galaxy S7.

It isn't perfect, but for the price you can't go wrong.

DESIGN

We usually associate budget or mid-range phones with being cheap and plasticky.

The good news is that aside from being a little smaller, the A3 is virtually indistinguishable

from the Galaxy S6, which is one of the most attractive phones on the market.

It's also a refreshing change to be able to use a phone one-handed.

At 4.7-inches, your thumb can reach almost all of the screen without having to resort

to the finger acrobats required on larger phones.

At 132g and 7.3mm thick, the A3 is easy to hold and sits comfortably in your hand thanks

to its rounded corners.

If you've used a Samsung phone before, you'll be familiar with the phone's layout.

The Home button (sans fingerprint reader) and the flanking capacitive return and recently

used menu buttons make use of the bezel, rather than taking up screen real-estate in the form

of the on-screen buttons used by the majority of Android phones.

Unlike Samsung's flagship S7, the A3 isn't water- or dust-resistant.

We'd happy if it were simply fingerprint resistant – the glass body so easily picks

up smudges and fingerprints that you'd be wise to keep a micro-fibre cloth handy!

SCREEN One of the issues I had with the 2015 Galaxy

A3 was it's low 960 x 540 (245ppi) resolution, so I'm pleased to see that Samsung has upgraded

it to 1,280 x 720 (312ppi), while also bumping up the screen size to 4.7 inches.

It's far from the sharpest screen, but it's in the same ballpark as Apple's Retina display

on the iPhone 6S.

The display itself looks lovely – the A3 uses Samsung's fabulous Super AMOLED technology.

You can adjust the screen mode in the Options menu, switching between Adaptive display (default),

AMOLED cinema, AMOLED and Basic.

The Basic option offers the most natural colour reproduction, but I can't help but prefer

the more vibrant – if slightly unrealistic – adaptive mode.

Using the A3 outside on a sunny day doesn't prove problematic either, thanks to the outdoor

display mode kicking in and boosting the brightness.
