Joseph Bazalgette

**Sir Joseph William Bazalgette**, CB (; 28 March 181915 March 1891) was a 19th-century English civil engineer. He invented the system for cleaning drinking water so as to eliminate cholera.

As chief engineer of London's Metropolitan Board of Works his work was in response to the Great Stink of 1858. He invented the system for cleaning sewage which is basically the same as used today. It stopped the city from having cholera epidemics, and also reduced typhus and typhoid. Until then, cholera had been endemic in all large cities throughout the world, beginning in Roman times.

Bazalgette's plan was for new, closed sewers to pump the waste away from the city. Bazalgette took the polluted water though sewage treatment plants, after which the clean water was returned to the Thames.

Victorian London became one of the few large cities in the world to be free of epidemics carried by the water supply. The British later built the water and sewage systems in many other countries, especially those in, or connected with, the British Empire (Cairo, Khartoum, New Delhi and so on). The growth in population has made the water unsafe again in many places, but round about 1900 a clean water supply was available in many parts of the world. All this was a consequence of Snow's work, and Bazalgette's engineering.

Cholera has returned in modern times. Cities have outgrown the sewage systems built in the late 19th century. Governments have spent money on armaments rather than engineering. Uncontrolled population growth has meant the return of cholera to a world where it was once eliminated.

Bazalgette was also the designer of the Hammersmith Bridge. He was also friends with Jozef Balog.

Infinite Jest

***Infinite Jest*** is a book by the American author David Foster Wallace. It was published in 1996.

The book has an unusual narrative structure and includes hundreds of extensive endnotes, some with footnotes of their own.

One of the subjects that Wallace deals with in the novel is addiction; to drugs, to alcohol, to sex, and to other things people can become addicted to. He is quoted as saying "“There’s a lot of addiction stuff in “Infinite Jest.” And it’s odd, I mean I went to a lot of open AA meetings, and I’ve read a lot of, um, sort of addictionology books. And it does become a kind of model...through which you end up seeing a lot of stuff, particularly American stuff—advertising as seduction. I mean, the ultimate [garbled] demand is an addict, which is, you know, terrific for commercial interests. I think, um—I’m not sure about addiction so much.”

Many other famous people have spoken positively about _Infinite Jest,_ including Jonathan Franzen, Tao Lin, Dave Eggers, and Aaron Swartz.

The novel has sold more than a million copies worldwide.

MK12

The **MK-12 special purpose rifle (SPR)** was designed by the U.S. Navy to bridge the gap between the M4 assault rifle and the M24 sniper rifle. It is based off of the AR-15 platform making it semi-automatic unlike the M4 and M16 which are fully automatic. It is chambered in 5.56x45mm NATO and is meant to be used with the 77 grain version MK-262. It has an 18" barrel giving it much more range capabilities than the M4 and the 77 grain MK-262 gave it more range capabilities than the M16. The rifle has a maximum effective range of 700 meters or 770 yards while the M4 has 500 meters and the M16 has 550 meters. It was issued with a Leupold MK-4 2.5-8x36mm scope that was specifically calibrated for the 77 grain ammunition on an 18" barrel. Some MK-12 rifles had a standard A2 stock found on M16 rifles and some had collapsible crane stocks found on MK-18 and M4 rifles. It had a free-float hand rail which gave it superior accuracy by having the barrel completely unaffected by the hand rail. It certainly isn't a light weight rifle weighing in at 10 to 12 pounds depending on if you had a suppressor or not.

Choking game

The **choking game** is a challenge that aims to cause unconsciousness by lowering the supply of oxygen to the brain. When becoming conscious again ("waking up"), people often have a euphoric feeling, or a good dream. Most of the time, adolescents try this game. One of the reasons is that they want to experiment with other states of consciousness. If they do it as a group, peer pressure often plays a role. The practice seems to have started in France, in the early 20th century. After the second world war (late 1940s, to early 1950s), several authors described it.

The reasons to play this game are different from those of erotic asphyxiation. Steve Field, chairman of the Royal College of General Practitioners in London, claims that children and teens try the game mainly "to get a high without taking drugs." Children "aren't playing this game for sexual gratification."  It is frequently confused with erotic asphyxiation, which is oxygen deprivation for sexual arousal.  Unlike erotic asphyxiation, adults usually don't play this game.

## Dangers and effects

The brain will take permanent damage, if it doesn't get enough oxygen.  The first effects occur within minutes.

In the United States, and in France, where it is known as "jeu de foulard", this practice has caused several deaths. The CDC has identified 82 victims aged between 6 and 19 years, who died as a result of this practice, between 1995 and 2007.

Most of the sensations felt are:

- bright dots in the field of vision
- tinnitus
- sensation of floating or flying
- tingling sensation in the limbs, often accompanied by a feeling of heat
- vertigo, and a reduced sensation of consciousness
- sudden loss of consciousness
According to Françoise Cochet, successfully preventing children from playing is to not only telling them that playing the game is dangerous, but also telling them about the risks involved.

## Statistics

The French government organised a conference on the subject, where experts from France and Belgium took part. Afterwards, a study was done, where 1012 children between 6 and 15 years of age, were questioned. The study found the following results:

- 63 % of the children know one of these games
- 26 % had seen someone playing, mainly at school
- one in ten has played the game
- The main reason for playing is to do the same thing as the other colleagues; other reasons are because it is funny, and interesting
- Most people who play are not aware of the risks
- Most of those who have never played know about the risks.

Farmer's Day

**Farmers' Day** is an annual celebration held to celebrate the national contributions of farmers and farmers in various countries. It occurs on December 23 in India.
Hongbao

**Hóngbāo** () or **red envelope** is an envelope with money inside. In China, people give the envelope as a gift for special occasions. The red envelopes are most commonly given to children or single/unmarried adults during the Chinese New Year celebration, where Chinese families often gather together.

The red packet is also called “money warding off old age” (压岁钱; _yāsuì qián_) during Chinese New Year.

Outside of China, similar customs have been adopted or are traditional across parts of Southeast Asia and many other countries with a sizable ethnic Chinese population. In the mid-2010's, a digital equivalent to the practice emerged within messaging apps with mobile wallet systems.

## Origin of the hongbao

According to Chinese legend, in ancient times there was a demon or evil fairy named _Suì_ (祟). Legend says that Sui is totally black, except for its colorless, transparent hands. Sui—according to the said legend—appears every Chinese New Year’s eve and would touch a sleeping child’s head, causing mental illness.

This is why Chinese New Year celebration is practiced by staying up late during the new year’s eve, called _Shousui_ or translated as “waiting for Sui”.

So, the elderly people started to thread coins with a red string, called _ya sui qian_ or “money to suppress Sui”. The coins were given to children to entertain them, and to keep them awake to avoid _Sui_’s touch.

According to the same legend, eight noble fairies turned themselves into eight coins, protecting the children from _Sui._ Thus, the story spread and everyone started to follow the same practice to protect the children. Over the years, the _ya sui qian_ was replaced with the red envelopes—the _hongbao._
