How Gross Is the Water That Drips From Air Conditioners?
It's like rain on a summer evening.
Celebrate Air Conditioning Appreciation Week with this gallery from Magnum Photos.
Ever wonder about the water that drips down from air conditioners as an unwelcome sidewalk surprise when you're walking to work? In 2011, Forrest Wickman looked into the reason why ACs are so leaky, and if there's anything unsanitary about the water that's dripping down on you. The original article is reprinted below.
Walk down any city sidewalk on a hot summer day, and you're bound to get wet—and not just when it's raining. Water drips from window AC units, especially on muggy days, and this unpleasant drizzle can fall into your hair or even onto the lip of your morning coffee cup. Is all that dripping water sanitary?
Yes, as a general rule. Most of the dripping from air conditioners is just condensed water vapor that comes from the air inside the building. Window air conditioners are designed to drain this water from the back, raining it down on any unsuspecting pedestrians below. In most ways this water is exactly like rain (which also forms from condensed water vapor) or the moisture that collects on a cool can of soda, and it's typically no more harmful. However, in rare cases small amounts of water can be left to stagnate inside the air conditioner, making it a breeding ground for bacteria.
On a hot and humid day, a window unit can drip up to 2 gallons of water, which accumulates on its evaporator coil as it cools and dehumidifies the air. (Very little condensation gathers on the exterior side of an AC, which tends to be warmer than the air around it.) This coil, like many plumbing pipes used for drinking water, is made of copper (which is also what makes air conditioners so heavy), and it's much cleaner than you might expect from looking at a dusty AC filter. While copper can be unhealthy in high doses, the condensate from air conditioners seems to be low in minerals and dissolved solids.
In a properly functioning air conditioner, the water drips down from the coil into a condensate pan and then exits the unit through a drain or tube. However, a clog in this drain or tube can leave a puddle to accumulate inside, which is an ideal environment for many types of harmful bacteria. In particular, a 1976 outbreak of Legionnaires' disease was caused by bacteria that spread out of the air conditioning system at Philadelphia's Bellevue-Stratford Hotel. (That's how the disease got its name: Many of the victims were attending an American Legion convention.) While Legionella is known to thrive in the cooling towers of large air conditioning systems like the one at that Philadelphia hotel, it does not seem to grow in smaller units. Furthermore, dripping water isn't really stagnant, so it's extremely unlikely that the water raining down on pedestrians would be infected.
The water that drips from air conditioners is probably even safe for drinking. (It's certainly more potable than the drinking water in many countries.) Still, for the reasons mentioned above, it's best not to tilt your head back for a draft. If you're looking for a better use for your air conditioner's condensate, the Explainer recommends using it to water your plants.

GUADALAJARA, Mexico (AP) – Cristie Kerr won the Lorena Ochoa Invitational on Sunday for her first LPGA Tour victory in more than two years, and Stacy Lewis tied for fourth to wrap up the player of the year award.
Kerr parred the final three holes at Guadalajara Country Club to hold off Angela Stanford and third-round leader Inbee Park by a stroke.
"Coming in those last couple of holes it didn't feel like I had won before," Kerr said. "I kind of just squeaked in. I won by a shot. That's all that it takes. I've lost plenty of tournaments by a shot, but winning by a shot feels a lot better."
The 35-year-old American finished at 16-under 272 for her 15th LPGA Tour title and first since the LPGA Championship in June 2010.
She holed a 4-foot par putt on No. 18 for the victory.
"Yeah, I was nervous," Kerr said. "I haven't been in this position to win in a while. To even have one putt to win, or two putts to win, I wasn't nervous for messing up, but it was hard to control the amount of adrenaline that was in my system.
"I just tried to take some breaths and calm myself down and I still can't believe how hard I hit that first putt. I gave the fans and myself a heart attack, but I stayed in there mentally until the end."
Stanford shot 68, and Park had a 72.
The second-ranked Lewis, coming off her tour-leading fourth victory of the year last week in Japan, is the first American player of the year since Beth Daniel in 1994.
"After I finally made my last putt there on 18, I think it finally hit me," Lewis said. "It's just crazy to think that there have been so many great American players and I am the one after Beth in `94. It's just crazy to even think of."
Lewis closed with a 68 to match Candie Kung at 4 under. Kung also shot 68.
"I'm really happy for her," Stanford said about Lewis. "She's a great person and probably has a bigger heart than she is player. I mean she's just a great girl and I'm very happy for her. So, I think it's great."
Park needed to win the event and the season-ending Titleholders to have a chance to pass Lewis in the player of the year standings.
"I'll just try to enjoy myself next week because I tried to put too much pressure on myself this week," Park said. "Next week will be better."
The South Korean player has two victories this year and leads the money list.
"Everything has improved in my game and I'm really just happy I'm in contention almost every week," Park said. "That's given me a lot of experience and it gives me a lot more to do next year."
Suzann Pettersen finished with a 69 to tie 12th at 7 under. She won in South Korea and Taiwan in her previous two starts.
Michelle Wie tied for 14th at 6 under after a 74.
Ochoa finished with a 71 to tie for 19th at 4 under. The Mexican star won 27 LPGA Tour titles before retiring at age 28 in 2010.
Top-ranked Yani Tseng tied for 26th in the 36-player field, closing with a 72 to finish at 1 over.

The crust uses soft coconut macaroon cookies, pecans and butter. I chose to make my own coconut macaroons (recipe below). On top of the crust, I layered rich vanilla custard and fresh, slightly sweetened whipped cream. And to crown off the delicious filling, fresh slices of fruit!
Homemade MacaroonsThe recipe below makes around 20 cookies, so you'll have plenty for the crust and some to snack on. All the cookies I had were gobbled up fast. This is a great recipe if you ever want to make plain macaroons. Yum!
Once the macaroons are baked and cooled they get shredded and mixed with chopped toasted pecans and some butter.
The crust going into the oven. I broke up the pecan pieces with my fingers, so I had big chunks in my crust. I was just too lazy to pull out the food processor.
Mmmm. The golden crust, baked and filled.
A mix of fresh cut fruit, strawberries, kiwi's, pears, nectarines, raspberries, boysenberries etc., are all tasty additions. Sliced banana's turns this into a yummy banana cream tart.
This tart is tasty unadorned too with just the simple custard and whipped cream.
Vanilla Custard Tart with Coconut Macaroon Crust
Coconut Macaroon Crust
9 soft macaroon cookies, crumbled (2 cups)
1 cup ground pecans
3 T butter, softened
Mix all ingredients together. Press mixture into a 10 to 11-in fluted tart pan.
Bake at 350 until golden brown 15 to 18 minutes. Cool on wire rack
Coconut Macaroon Cookies
14 ounces sweetened shredded coconut
14 ounces sweetened condensed milk
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
2 extra-large egg whites, at room temperature
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
Combine the coconut, condensed milk, and vanilla in a large bowl. Whip the egg whites and salt on high speed in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment until they make medium-firm peaks. Carefully fold the egg whites into the coconut mixture.
Drop the batter onto sheet pans lined with parchment paper using either a 1 3/4-inch diameter ice cream scoop, or 2 teaspoons. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, until golden brown. Cool and serve
* Make sure you use a removable bottom tart pan. This crust can be sticky. Try lining the pan with buttered parchment paper and don;t pat it down too firmly.
Vanilla Custard
5 large egg yolks
1/2 cup granulated sugar
3 tablespoons cornstarch (4 or 5 T)
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 1/2 cups whole milk
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into pieces
1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
Prepare an ice-water bath; set aside. Make the custard: In a medium bowl, whisk together egg yolks, granulated sugar, cornstarch, and salt. In a medium saucepan, bring milk just to a boil. Remove from heat, and whisk about 1/2 cup of hot milk into yolk mixture. Whisk yolk mixture into saucepan of hot milk. Place over medium-high heat, and bring to a gentle boil, whisking constantly. Continue to cook, whisking constantly, until thickened, about 1 minute. Remove from heat, and whisk in butter, one piece at a time, until melted. Add 1 teaspoon vanilla, and whisk until smooth. Immediately strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a medium bowl. Place bowl of custard in ice bath to cool, stirring occasionally.
Whipped cream topping
1 cup whipping cream
1 tsp. vanilla
3 Tbs. powdered sugar, sifted
Whip cream until soft peaks form. Beat in vanilla and sugar until combine. Chill until ready to use.
Assemble Tart
Pour chilled vanilla custard into cooled coconut crust. Carefully spread whipped cream over custard. Chill until ready to serve. Top with favorite fruit, raspberries, blueberries, bananas, pear, mango, kiwi, just before serving. Sprinkle with powdered, if desired.

WVNCC | West Virginia Northern Community College
Social Work 2+2
Associate in Arts Degree
Transfer to West Virginia University
Note: The "2+2" term is used to refer to a transfer agreement through which a student completes an Associate degree at WVNCC and finishes a Bachelor's degree at another institution. Because of individual student factors, part-time or full-time status, need for transitional education coursework, scheduling and availability of courses, or other factors, all students may not be able to complete this degree in two (Associate's) or four (Bachelor's) years. The term "2+2" does not imply a guarantee that a student will be able to complete all requirements in four years.
Students completing this option will receive an Associate in Arts degree from West Virginia Northern. Upon completing the specified 61-66 credit hours at West Virginia University, they will receive a Bachelor in Social Work (B.S.W.) Degree.
Fifty-seven to fifty-nine hours (depending on what math courses are taken) of the 63-67 credit hours will transfer as equivalent courses.
In addition to the WVNCC courses, applicants for admission to WVU need to have an overall grade point average of 2.5, 100 hours of documented volunteer experience, a written personal statement and two letters of reference. Qualifying students will compete with other WVU students and transfers for 60 slots.*
Students successfully completing and receiving an A.A. degree under the 2+2 agreement with West Virginia University's School of Social Work should be able to:
*Although a cumulative GPA of 2.0 meets requirements for graduation at WVNCC, students who do not meet the GPA (or other special) requirements at the transfer institution for admission to this baccalaureate program may not be admitted to the program until they are able to meet those requirements. Students should consult with an advisor at the transfer institution early in their program to check on this, and other requirements for admission to the baccalaureate program.

Native Electron apps, including Atom, leverage Chromium to display a GUI and Node.js as an execution environment, both of which respectively embed V8 to run JavaScript. This allows Electron apps to take advantage of V8 snapshots to quickly initialize a previously serialized heap for faster startup. Electron developers have even released electron-link, a convenience library for setting up this feature, which Atom heavily relies on for its performance optimizations.
We announced V8's support for custom start-up snapshot more than a year ago. With v8::V8::CreateSnapshotDataBlob, embedders can provide an additional script to customize a start-up snapshot. New contexts created from this snapshot are initialized as if the additional script has already been executed. As the Atom team has shown, using a custom start-up snapshot can significantly boost start-up performance.
To quote the Atom article:
The tricky part of using this technology, however, is that the code is executed in a bare V8 context. In other words, it only allows us to run plain JavaScript code and does not provide access to native modules, Node/Electron APIs or DOM manipulation.To work around this restriction, electron-link goes great lengths to make sure native functions (backed by C++ functions) are not included in the snapshot, and are instead loaded lazily. V8's serializer simply does not know how to serialize these native functions. Instead, native functions are wrapped into helper functions that load them lazily at runtime.
Since our original post about snapshots, the V8 team has continued developing the snapshot API and added many features and improvements. These features include support for serializing native functions. Provided that the backing C++ functions have been registered with V8, the serializer can now recognize and encode native functions for the deserializer to restore later. We're happy to announce that the work-around in electron-link is no longer necessary.
One caveat remains: the serializer cannot directly capture state outside of V8, for example changes to the DOM in case of Atom. However, outside state directly attached to JavaScript objects via embedder fields (previously named "internal fields") can now be serialized and deserialized through a new callback API. With some work, this feature allows outside state to be put into the snapshot after all.
Some other highlights include:
- FunctionTemplate and ObjectTemplate objects can now be added and extracted from the snapshot, so that they do not have to be set up from scratch.
- V8 can now run multiple scripts or apply any other modifications to the context before creating the snapshot, as opposed to only a single source string.
- Multiple differently-configured contexts can now be included in the same start-up snapshot blob.
For more advanced code examples, take a look at these test cases:
StartupData V8::CreateSnapshotDataBlob(const char* embedded_source) {
StartupData result = {nullptr, 0};
SnapshotCreator snapshot_creator;
// Obtain an isolate provided by SnapshotCreator.
Isolate* isolate = snapshot_creator.GetIsolate();
HandleScope scope(isolate);
// Create a new context and optionally run some script.
context = Context::New(isolate);
if (embedded_source != NULL &&
!RunExtraCode(isolate, context, embedded_source, " ")) {
return result;
// Add the possibly customized context to the SnapshotCreator.
// Use the SnapshotCreator to create the snapshot blob.
result = snapshot_creator.CreateBlob(
return result;
- How to include native functions
- Adding FunctionTemplate and ObjectTemplate and serializing embedder fields
- Multiple contexts

About the Guide
This guide is designed to enhance students' mastery of key content and skills in United States history, geography, and language arts (including drama) by studying the life and times of eminent actor Edwin Booth and his infamous brother, John Wilkes Booth. It is intended to be used in conjunction with
Good Brother, Bad Brother: The Story of Edwin Booth and John Wilkes Booth
, by award-winning author James Cross Giblin, as well as with your textbook or other supplemental materials. The lessons will complement curriculum in the social studies, particularly antebellum, Gold Rush, and Civil War history and geography. The guide also includes creative and expository writing exercises and provides insight into the history of the nineteenth-century American theater. Each lesson is designed with multiple objectives in mind to make the most efficient use of teachers' time. The lessons in this guide may be used with students from upper elementary through high school, based on educators' judgments about what is most suitable to the experience level and abilities of the students in their classroom and the curriculum of their district and state.
The guide consists of six lesson plans drawn from topics investigated in
Good Brother, Bad Brother: The Story of Edwin Booth and John Wilkes Booth
The Historian's Craft
Brothers A Poem in Two Voices
Good Brother
Bad Brother
Brother versus Brother: The Human Face of the Civil War
Liberty in Time of War
Within each lesson plan you will find all or most of the following information:
Synopsis of lesson

Assessment rubric
Interdisciplinary activities
Although the study guide is designed so that the six lesson plans provide an integrated unit of studies, it is not expected that students will complete all the listed activities. Teachers may assign selected activities to their classes, allow students to choose an activity for themselves, or set up independent learning centers with the material needed for suggested activities. Also, teachers may wish to give students the opportunity to earn extra credit by completing some activities as independent work. Recognizing the time and accountability constraints facing classroom teachers, we encourage you to select and adapt the activities that best meet your students' needs and abilities, curriculum requirements, and your teaching style.
This study guide was written by Jean M. West, an education consultant in Port Orange, Florida.
Lesson Synopses
These lessons are most appropriate for high school students, grades 912, but may be suitable for middle school students, grades 68.
Lesson One: The Historian's Craft
In this introductory lesson to
Good Brother, Bad Brother: The Story of Edwin Booth and John Wilkes Booth
, students will examine the challenges facing historians and biographers. Students will look at a fairy tale villain (such as the wolf from the
Three Little Pigs
or the Wicked Witch of the West from
The Wizard of Oz
). The class will discuss why it is important to write about history's villains while avoiding the traps of over-demonizing or over-glorifying them.
Lesson Two: Brothers A Poem in Two Voices
Students will begin to examine the lives of Edwin Booth and John Wilkes Booth in this lesson. Using a handout of quotations from Edwin Booth and John Wilkes Booth and an organizational chart, small groups will select from the quotations and organize the words of the two brothers. They will culminate the activity by using the brothers' words to create a found poem with two voices.
Lesson Three: Good Brother
In this lesson, students will begin to examine how historians and biographers work to create a full, balanced account of people of the past, in this case focusing on the problem of the "good brother" or any "hero." Students will begin by talking about "what's in a name," and brainstorming the characteristics of the stereotypical "good brother." The class will follow up with research in
Good Brother, Bad Brother: The Story of Edwin Booth and John Wilkes Booth
, along with other sources, to determine how Edwin Booth compares with the stereotype of "good brother." The students will express their findings in a choice of culminating written activities.
Lesson Four: Bad Brother
In this lesson, students deal with the historian's dilemma of how to write about people in the past who have committed wicked deeds. Students will analyze a well-known cartoon, "Satan Tempting Booth to the Murder of the President," on p. 115 of Giblin's book. Then they will read
Good Brother, Bad Brother: The Story of Edwin Booth and John Wilkes Booth
to try to determine when and how John Wilkes Booth, a man "who seemed so loveable and in whom all his family found a source of joy in his boyish and confiding nature," turned into "a villain" (Edwin Booth, quoted on p. 5).
Lesson Five: Brother versus Brother: The Human Face of the Civil War
The rift between Edwin and his younger brother John was repeated between hundreds of brothers, neighbors, and friends during the Civil War. Because pupils today are nearly one hundred-fifty years removed from the participants, they will research a human aspect of the war and prepare a written report, skit, project board, or computer slide-show about their findings.
Lesson Six: Liberty in Time of War
John Wilkes Booth chafed at the limits on his ability to express his political opinion due to the authorities and public opinion; the Lincoln conspirators were tried by a military tribunal. Students will research what happens to personal liberties when the nation is threatened by investigating how treasonous behavior was handled by the U.S. government during the Civil War, the Red Scare, World War II, and the McCarthy Era and then present their findings in a panel report.

Dear Lispers,
I've been writing a small HTTP server and I'd like to deploy it to a friends computer. To allow some configuration to be done per machine, I want to add a settings file (like 'setting.ini' for other applications) to the same directory as the program will be in, so it can read in the settings from that file. I've yet to write the full code for it, but I think I'll manage, but one thing has stumped me so far and too many google searches have delivered nothing of use
How do I get the directory in which the (lisp) program is running? Like the Win32 GetModuleFileName, which can be used to get the current process' filename.
Is there any Lisp function that can do that? I'm guessing it'll become something tied specifically to the implementation, so in that case: I'm using CLisp.
Thanks in advance for your input.
Best Regards,

Farmer's Market Report: Summer Squash and Blossoms
While much of spring's bounty (like artichokes and asparagus) are still available, all the berries, corn and the first hint of stone fruit at this past weekend's Pasadena Farmers' Market made it feel like summertime. While we wait for peaches and nectarines, what really got us excited were the delicate squash blossoms and their counterparts: summer squash.
Squash Blossoms are some of our favorite seasonal foods. Maybe it's because you get to eat flowers or maybe it's just because they're available for such a short window of time that they feel extra special. Battered and fried (and stuffed with goat cheese) they offer a crisp shell and a soft, flavorful middle. Serve them up for brunch and your guests will swoon.
No matter how you're preparing, just remember to carefully take out the pistil before cooking.
• Fried Squash Blossoms
• 5 Ways To Eat Squash Blossoms
• How To Tell the Difference Between Male and Female Blossoms
Along with the blossoms, all kinds of summer squash were available including our favorite: Pattypan Squash (we like it mainly for it's fun shape!). Below are some recipes for summer squash, but hands down, our favorite way to eat them is to coat them with some olive oil, salt and pepper, and throw them on the grill.

• Shredded Zuchinni and Summer Squash Salad

Regarding our mention of newspaper bloopers, Phoebe Thompson says the Clinton Watchman had a sense of humor about one of its bloopers:
"It was 20 or 30 years ago when we had a robbery at one of the Clinton banks.
"The headline in The Watchman was 'Robber fleas with bank bag.'
"The following week the paper published several humorous cartoons with fleas running off with money bags in their hands."
Speaking of bloopers
Sarah Stravinska, of Chestnut, says, "Your blooper stories remind me of one about Crisco.
"When it first came out it was in a can, and looked and cooked like lard.
"One of the features commercials bragged about was that no refrigeration was required.
"The blooper — spoken by, I think, Paul Harvey on the radio — was, 'It stays for weeks and reeks on your shelf.' "
Flight school?
Harold Mayeux says, "L.P. Miller asked about the football program of the College of Cardinals. I thought it was an advanced training school for birds."
Double switch
A milk delivery story from Donald Kershaw:
"When I started dating my wife, Betty Kleinpeter, in 1952, my mother was taking milk from Louisiana Creamery.
"I asked her to change to Kleinpeter Dairy, and she agreed to do so.
"On her next delivery date, she was shocked to see her old milkman, Homer Jackson, leaving milk at her door.
"She quickly told him, 'There must be a mistake. I changed to Kleinpeter Dairy.'
"He laughed and said, 'So did I.' "
A shining moment
Jacqueline "Jackie" Carr, of Slidell, thanks Adler's Jewelers in Towne Center for the free polishing of the silver U.S. Army Air Corps wings of her late father, Alfred E. Carr Jr.
The wings were being prepared for an exhibit at the National World War II Museum in New Orleans, "Guests of the Third Reich: American POWs in Europe."

Penguins need to drop 'burden of expectation'
PITTSBURGH — The solution to the Pittsburgh Penguins' inconsistent hockey is straightforward, defenceman Rob Scuderi figured.
"We have to play without the burden of expectation and just play the game," Scuderi said on Saturday morning at the Consol Energy Centre.
"We're confident we have a good team in here. We have good coaches, we have a good plan. But sometimes we are held back by the fear of losing.
"You have to accept losing as a possibility, but you can't let it paralyze what you are trying to do, which is win a series. I hope we can let go of that."
The Penguins and Columbus Jackets have two wins each after four games of the best-of-seven Eastern Conference quarterfinal.
The winner of Game 5 on Saturday night will have an opportunity to take the series in Game 6 on Monday night at Nationwide Arena in Columbus.
Each team twice has blown a multiple-goal lead and gone on to lose that game.
Penguins defenceman Brooks Orpik did not participate in the morning skate after leaving practice early on Friday.
"Brooks Orpik skated at an undisclosed location with David Backes this morning," Penguins coach Dan Bylsma said to open his media conference, drawing a few laughs. Backes, the St. Louis Blues' captain, returned to his team's lineup on Friday night after missing a couple of games with a head injury.
But Bylsma wouldn't otherwise give an update on Orpik, only saying the "lineup is game time." If Orpik can't play, one of Robert Bortuzzo or Deryk Engelland will play.
Both teams will be bolstered by the return of injured players.
Columbus defencemen Fedor Tyutin and Ryan Murray will be in the lineup, while the Penguins will have centre Marcel Goc on the fourth line between Tanner Glass and Craig Adams.
"I hope right away," Goc said of the impact he expects to make. "I feel good. I have had a couple practices here, get a hit, give a hit, should be good from there."
Goc will replace Jayson Megna.
Jackets centre Brandon Dubinsky, who not only has done a fine job of checking Sidney Crosby but also has more points (six to Crosby's four), guessed that the Jackets will see a re-focused Penguins side.
"They are going to come and push right away," Dubinsky said. "After what happened last game (a 4-3 overtime win by Columbus), I think they are going to have extra juice. I expect Sid and (Evgeni) Malkin to come out and really step up their games.
"We believe we can win in this building. It's going to take a hell of an effort, though."

Industry needs to watch and learn from this experience!
Given that this is an ongoing investigation, I am reluctant to comment other that to say that It is extremely fortunate that no loss of life was incurred.
This type of event has the potential to have a very negative impact on Home Performance and Weatherization production.
I suspect that this matter is and will be investigated to the fullest extent, given the State of CT's awareness of the SPF Industry.
The ability to increase awareness of this event is a tremendous service to professionals and homeowners alike.
I applaud Mr. Beyer for bringing this to the forum.
I have never heard of a foam, product spontaneously combusting.
I did have an opportunity, about 20 years ago, to participate in flame spread testing of different foam materials found in acute hospitals. There were many fire magazine articles of deaths from smoke inhalation in rest homes that attributed the deaths to toxic fumes released from foam mattresses on the hospital beds. 1,200 beds in just one of the hospitals represented that day.
Knowing I worked with a coating that was fire rated for flame spread and had worked with local fire departments testing it, the chief engineer askled for any input as to how to test it. My suggestion was very simple; Lets take a small piece of a mattress , set it on fire and see what happens. I volunteered my old briquet bar-b-que for the test.
The first test was done on the very large back lawn of one of the hospitals. There were around 15 people present. A 1-foot by 1-ffot section of one of the blue foam mattresses was placed in the bar-b-que with the 'Fingers' pointing up, just like the patients all liked. They were very comfy and helped keep the old folks warm in a cold hospital, a good insulator.
Everyone moved 5 or 6 feet away to the upwind side. A lighter ignited the tip of one of the fingers in the middle of the piece. Immediately there was a surprising amout of dark black smoke coming up. After 15 or so seconds, that finger burnt down to the flat part of the mattress section between the fingers. In a matte3r of maybe 5 seconds, the entire section was ablaze and a HUGE amount of black smoke started billowing up. You would have thought that sevberal tires had been set on fire.
Then the wind shifted and that smoke blew in our direction. It smelled just like burning tires too. My eyes and nose were burning and you COULD NOT BREATHE. Most of us, including me, dropped toi the grass on all fours and crawled to a safe distance.
Since it smelled like rubber burning, assumed a petroleum product.
They immedfiately yanked those mattresses out of the hospitals and began searching for a safer alternative.
I do not know the composition of the spray foam used as insulation now, although I have always wondered about its flame spread rating. Our coating does not stick to petroleum based products. A few years ago our Texas distributor called and reported having problems bonding to spray foam. It had petroleum based materials in it on further investigation. This was maybe 4 or 5 years ago
Does anyone here know what what the spray foam's flame spread rating is? A flame spread will also include a 'Smokje released' rating.
Hal you can get the smoke & fire spread rating from the manufacturer of each product - the only times I have heard of "spontaneous combustion" is when an installer sprays closed cell on to thick & the exothermic reaction reaches critical mass (so to speak). With that per this SPFA article this may even apply to open cell foam: http://www.sprayfoam.com/newsarchives/archivedetails.cfm?id=148
I know it is still under investigation but I can't think of any other reason that would happen as no one else should be in the area, everything should be shut down, and the areas well ventilated.
Hi Sean,
Yes, the manufacturers provide that data. However, there are other things involved in the real life applications that can change the actual performance of the material vs how it performed in the lab test.
1. If the material is applied too thick or too thin, as you mentioned, the results can be very differnt.
2. The method used to apply the material can also produce different results.
3. The flame spread of the substrate can have a huge bearing on it's performance in flame spread testing.
Years ago, they used asbestos cement board for the 'Tunnel test' used to certify the flame spread and smoke developed rating. Now it is a different board for the test. Both are rated at zero flame spread. If the application is to a different substrate, (say wood in actual application vs glass board in lab application) the findings in the lab go right out the door. Wood, obviously, does not have a Zero flame spread.
Unfortunately, this is the best we have to show a flame pread developed; a test that can be affected by many things.
4. If the material contains 2 or more components that must be mixed together prior to application, there again we have the human factor that can cause more problems.
Bottom line here is that the material is never applied to the same substrate as the lab test that gave it it's flame spread and smoke certification. But, that test is all we have to go by and trust.
Many people are aware I have been researching spray polyurethane foam insulation for 3 years and almost full time due to a bad installation within my own home. I have written many blog posts about my findings to only be attacked by industry members who thought it was all fluff and accused me of wanting this industry shut down. Simply stated, this is not true. The real threat these men were worried about was my push within the Connecticut State Government to force mandatory training to protect private citizens and installers from harming themselves with these chemicals by law. SPFA has fought me on this over the last 2 legislative sessions. See... Connecticut House Bill 5908 and 05100. I could only hope next year there will be less resistance now that the product is proving to be deadly when a fire does occur, regardless of the cause.
Of all the cases I have read about this fire is one of the worse residential fires I have ever seen which has pointed directly to spfi while it was being installed. I'm fairly confident the outcome of this investigation will point to another source only because of the federal governments agenda to air seal 80 percent of the American housing stock by 2030. Even a fire of this magnitude will not slow down this train. This industry will fight tooth and nail to save the "JOBS" and once again safety will take a back seat.
The most positive outcome of this fire is no one was hurt or killed.
If you look closely at the fire picture link below you can see the facade burning behind the covering. I can only assume EIFS was installed on the facade of this home which adds fuel to the fire. (polyisocyanurate or styrene which ever was used)
Federated Insurance labeled spray foam as "Solid Gasoline" years ago. Apparently money trumped it then and it will trump it again. I'm very happy this fire did not take any lives. If it did it may have changed the way people looked at this fire and the conclusion of the investigation under way.
Spray polyurethane foam insulation fires in almost all cases are related to installer failure with the exception of those nightclub fires in Brazil, China and the Station Night Club fire in Rhode Island which took the lives of over 100 men and women. Foam fires which occur emit extremely toxic gas (hydrogen cyanide) which kills before the fire ever reaches the victim.
Only one fire resembled this fire during Christmas of 2011 (Madonna Badger fire) which the cause was never published. This home burned so hot and fast that fire fighters could not extinguish the flames. Ms. Badger and her former husband lost their 3 children and her mother and father before the flames reached them. Ms. Badger described the smoke as "Thick Black Smoke" which even a film was attached to her teeth.
It's time our government acts now before more innocent people are harmed! This includes our young work force who act as though they are indestructible as they enter these work sites regularly without PPE.
Middlebury Fire Chief Paul Perrotti described the fire at the Janesky's house as a "hot attic fire" that spread rapidly after it was reported about 4:00 p.m. on July 3 as temperatures climbed past 90 degrees.
Fire crews were on the scene within minutes, he said, but were unable to contain the fire. They cut a hole in the slate-covered roof to vent the fire, but the procedure apparently didn't slow the blaze down. Fire companies from surrounding communities were called in to help.
Perrotti said he had been told at the scene that foam insulation had been sprayed in the house that day, but he said it was not possible to say that was the cause, and he referred questions about the investigation to Proulx. The state fire marshal's office deferred all comments to Middlebury investigators, although the office said it was possible they had been called to assist.
"Although Perrotti said the fire appeared to originate in the attic, or close to it. He also said he had been contacted by the manufacturer of the foam insulation after the fire, but he didn't recall the name of the company.
Then on July 09, 2014 before the investigation is complete.... "The Urethane Blog" quotes a "Hartford Courant" article stating "spontaneous combustion out as the cause".
On July 28,2014 Fire Engineering Reported....
"According to a source close to initial crews this incident came in as an automatic fire alarm and wasn't a reported fire due to construction crews possibly attempting to extinguish the fire."
And who is indicted on November 06,2014..... Perrotti who was telling the media about this story!
"PERROTTI has been the Fire Chief of the Middlebury Volunteer Fire Department, Inc. ("MVFD") since 1997."
November 08,2014
"Did a cigarette, a floodlight or spray insulation foam cause the blaze that destroyed businessman Larry Janesky's mansion at 725 Breakneck Hill Road on July 3?
November 10,2014
Official Cause of $10 Million Middlebury Mansion Fire Remains a Mystery
"The cause of the fire that destroyed Larry Janesky's $10 million mansion at 725 Breakneck Hill Road on July 3 may forever remain a mystery, reports Bill Bittar of the Waterbury Republican-American."
"In the Middlebury Fire Marshal's report released last week, the it states there is a "high probability" that spray foam left in three unsupervised garbage bags in the attic may have sparked the blaze, Bittar reports.
On the day of the fire, two technicians were applying spray foam insulation, and within a half hour smoke was detected, the Rep-Am reports."
Interesting to read that there may never be a cause determined for this blaze. For those of you that install foam - do you spray into a garbage bag as the equipment is firing up to check your mix? If so, could it have been the thickness of the foam in the bag that heated it up? If they were applying foam to the underside of the roof sheathing, could too thick a layer have heated it up? I have read of this several times but did not realize that one of the techs was killed.
No one died Ed. No one was injured.
I have to re-learn how to read - that was in an earlier fire in 2011. Thanks
Which fire are you speaking of? Are you speaking of the Massachusetts man who was purportedly reported to be smoking in the attic of a home which he just finished spraying? If it's the same story, I found that story interesting myself, because he's not alive to refute the claim. I think these installer's are a tad bit smarter than they are given credit for.

Lets be honest, with the Men in Red losing 4-2 at DC on Wednesday and being the only MLS team with this weekend off, you had a little bit of concern regarding where the team would be sitting come Monday morning.
Luckily for the Fire, teams from north of the border made this idle weekend a reasonably good one (if not tighter) heading into next Sunday's all-important home clash vs. Houston.
A quick wrap up of weekend results that have to do with the Eastern Conference playoff race...
Montreal Impact 3, DC United 0
Highlights: Montreal 3, D.C. United 0
Riding off their 4-2 defeat of the Fire at midweek, DC United visited the Montreal Impact in a Saturday afternoon matinee. Despite their result on Wednesday, the game marked United's third in six days (forcing Ben Olsen to bring starters Dwayne De Rosario, Chris Pontius and Branco Boskovic off the bench) and came against an Impact side that has taken 10 of its 12 victories at home this season.
Longtime Canadian international Patrice Bernier stole the show on the day, setting up Marco Di Vaio's 24th minute goal before talllying a 50th minute penalty and icing the match with his second goal deep into second half stoppage time.
United rarely threatened and saw their best chance come in the 78th minute when Troy Perkins thwarted Marcelo Saragosa from close range.
With the victory, Montreal (12-13-3; 39pts.) moves within one point of DC (12;9-4; 40pts.) for the final playoff spot in the East but time isn't on their side. With 28 games played, Jesse Marsch's team has taken the field more than any other MLS team this season and will likely need 12-15 points from their remaining matches, plus get a little help along the way to become just the third expansion team in league history to qualify for the playoffs in their inaugural year.
Good omen for Jesse, he was part of the first one that did it...
UP NEXT: More games with playoff implications as DC continues its torrid stretch, playing their fourth game in 10 days when they host New York on Wednesday, August 29 (7pm CT; Galavision) while Montreal visits upstart Columbus next Saturday, September 1 (6:30pm CT; MLS Live, Direct Kick)
Columbus Crew 4, New England Revolution 3
HIGHLIGHTS: Columbus 4, New England 3
This is the one that didn't go our way, though from the early-going, things looked good when some sloppy defending from the Crew saw Ryan Guy and Jerry Bengtson put the Revs up 2-0 inside 23 minutes.
Showing the inconsistent nature of New England this season, the Crew took the lead though even before halftime as two stunning free kicks from Columbus DP Federico Higuain sandwiched around a Jairo Arrieta finish to take the home side into the half up 3-2. Yes Fire fans, Higuain is the real deal and Crew head coach Robert Warzycha knows it.
New England stabilized at the break and would pull things level in the 81st minute when Lee Ngyuen sent substitute goalkeeper Matt Lampson the wrong way on a penalty kick. The Crew would have the last laugh minutes later as Arrieta ran onto Tony Tchani's through ball into the box and poked his second goal of the night past Matt Reis, ending a wild night of scoring at Crew Stadium.
Though there was little doubt New England's (6-14-5; 23pts.) season was over, this one hammered the coffin shut while the victory extended Columbus' (10-8-6; 36pts.) unbeaten run to four matches and kept the Crew within three points of sixth place Montreal and four behind DC for the final playoff spot in the East.
UP NEXT: Both teams are back in action Wednesday when the Crew will hope to win their third straight as they visit Philadelphia (7pm CT; MLS Live, Direct Kick) while New England will hope to snap their eight-match winless run when they welcome Chivas USA to Gillette Stadium (7pm CT; MLS Live, Direct Kick).
Houston Dynamo 1, Toronto FC1
With Toronto well at the bottom of the East, any points they can take from higher teams helps a lot. This game marked midfielder Ricardo Clark's first appearance since returning to the Dynamo from stints in Germany and Norway and also provided a good view into the current form of the Fire's next two league opponents.
Houston would take the lead in the 21st minute when forward Will Bruin ran on to Boniek Garcia's ball out of midfield before chipping onrushing TFC 'keeper Freddy Hall. The Dynamo threatened for the second goal throughout and would end the game witha 14-8 shots advantage but surrendered the equalizer and two points in the 84st minute when sloppy marking at the back saw Terry Dunfield head home Darren O'Dea's cross from the right.
With the result, Houston (11-6-9; 42pts.) remains in third place, just one point ahead of the Fire, with the good guys holding one game in hand. To say next Sunday's match against the orange-clad team at Toyota Park is a pivotal one would be an understatement. The result keeps Toronto FC (5-15-6; 21pts.) in the Eastern Conference cellar but also shows a team that can't be taken lightly heading into the home stretch.
UP NEXT: Houston takes a break from MLS action as they travel back to Central America for the second time in a week to face Honduran side Olimpia in CONCACAF Champions League group play on Thursday, August 30 (Fox Soccer; 9pm CT) before heading to Chicago for next Sunday's game (6pm CT; NBC Nonstop, Galavision). Toronto FC will hope to do better in CONCACAF play when they host Santos Laguna in the Champions League on Tuesday, August, 28 (7pm CT; Fox Soccer) before continuing its spoiler bid in a visit to Sporting KC on Saturday, September 1 (7:30pm CT; MLS Live, Direct Kick).
A quick view at the Eastern Conference Standings after last night...
First place in the Eastern Conference (Sporting KC) hosts the second place New York in their first of three meetings over the next two months, live tonight at 8pm CT on ESPN2.
Fire fans holding out hope for the top seed in the East would do well to hope for a draw in the game ...

SANTA BARBARA, Calif. (AP) - Branduinn Fullove scored 19 points, including a key 3-pointer late in the game, as UC Santa Barbara beat Westmont 51-42 on Saturday.
UC Santa Barbara (1-0) led by only two at the three-minute mark, but outscored the Warriors 11-4 in the final minutes.
Fullove's 3-pointer with two seconds left on the shot clock put the Gauchos up 45-38 with 1:32 to play. He made 7-of-11 shots overall, including two 3-pointers.
Chris Clark led Westmont (1-3) with 14 points, including a runner that pulled the Warriors within five with 1:17 remaining. Adama Ndiaye countered with a breakaway dunk to seal the UCSB victory. Ndiaye finished with 8 points and 14 rebounds.
Mark Hull scored 7 of his 10 points in the final six minutes for UCSB.
The game was a defensive struggle, with the score knotted at 20-20 at halftime. Westmont made only 3-of-24 three-pointers and shot just 24.5 percent for the game. The Gauchos shot 40 percent.

COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) — The mother of a woman shot outside a South Carolina courthouse said her daughter was ambushed by a former boyfriend who treated her poorly throughout their relationship and became furious because he would have to pay child support.
Curtis Gorny, who is charged with attempted murder, wasn't at Wednesday's hearing where he was ordered to start paying for his new daughter. Instead, he waited outside and fired on 21-year-old Olivia Weaver and her stepfather in a parking area of the Chesterfield County courthouse, said Weaver's mother, Jennifer Smith.
"He just ambushed her. It's by the grace of God that she's still alive," said Smith by telephone from her home in Cheraw where she was taking care of the 6-month-old girl at the center of the dispute.
Weaver was shot in the face and stomach. She is in intensive care at a Florence hospital, but is expected to survive. Her stepfather was shot in the arm and was released from the hospital Wednesday, Smith said.
Gorny, 57, will remain in jail after deciding Thursday to wait until all charges against him are filed before he has a bond hearing. He faces two counts of attempted murder, with more charges expected after investigators determine how many police officers he fired at during a 12-mile chase after the shooting, Chesterfield County Sheriff's Lt. Briana Davis said.
Davis did not know if Gorny, who arrived in court with a sling around his arm from injuries suffered when his truck crashed, has a lawyer. A phone listing for Gorny couldn't be found.
Smith said she didn't like when Gorny started dating her daughter. The 36-year difference in their ages was difficult enough, but Smith couldn't stand the way Gorny treated Weaver.
"It was kind of like she was sub-human, kind of like she was nobody important," Smith said.
Authorities said Gorny was violent toward Weaver before. He was charged with criminal domestic violence last year when he shoved Weaver while the two were discussing what to do about their new baby, deputies said. That charge is pending.
Weaver decided to leave Gorny while she was pregnant when he pushed her off a ladder as she climbed down from their loft bedroom, Smith said.
But her husband told her they had no warning Gorny was going to attack them Wednesday. They didn't see him before coming into the courthouse, and didn't know he was there until his pickup truck came around a corner, Smith said.
After the shooting, authorities said Gorny led police on a 12-mile chase, firing at officers before his tires were shredded and his truck ran into a ditch. Gorny came out of his truck swinging at officers before he was handcuffed, deputies said.
Davis said Chesterfield County deputies had dealt with Gorny before on minor matters, but nothing violent.
Smith said Gorny had a temper, but she was stunned when she was called Wednesday and told what happened at the courthouse.
"I thought he'd do something like get in a fistfight or throw rocks," Smith said. "I never saw him getting in a shootout."

February 13, 2013 19:35 ET
VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwire - Feb. 13, 2013) - High Desert Gold Corporation ("HDG" or the "Company") (TSX VENTURE:HDG)(OTCQX:HDGCF) is pleased to report that The Company and its partner Pilot Gold Inc. ("Pilot"), have approved an aggressive exploration program at Gold Springs for this year that will comprise approximately 100 reverse circulation drill holes with a focus on expanding the resource at the Jumbo "trend" and adding a new resource at Grey Eagle.
This aggressive program increases the Company's interest in the property to 82% because Pilot has elected not to contribute financially to this program due to other priorities in their portfolio of properties.
Ralph Fitch, President and CEO of the Company, stated "We are very excited to move forward with an aggressive exploration program in 2013 with drilling expected to start in April and are pleased to have increased our ownership in Gold Springs, thereby providing our shareholders with increased exposure to the continuing success we are anticipating at the project."
The Company plans to announce the remaining drill results from the 2012 program within a few days, pending final analysis, and an updated resource on the Gold Springs Project based on the 2012 drilling results by the end of the 1st quarter, 2013.
The Company is a mineral exploration company that acquires and explores mineral properties, primarily gold, copper and silver, in North America. The principal property held by HDG is an 82% interest in the Gold Springs gold project situated along the border between Utah and Nevada. The Company also holds direct interests in a number of other properties including the San Antonio project in Sonora, Mexico, the Gold Lake property in New Mexico, and the Kinkaid and Pinyon properties in Nevada. The Company also has a 30.5% interest in the Canasta Dorada property in Sonora, Mexico, through its equity interest in Highvista Gold Inc.

Because I'm pretty convinced that Shannon is the letter writer. And "Beatrice."
Either way, the pool of people who CANNOT have mailed the payout letters includes Battler's family. So either Rudolf and Kyrie didn't intentionally keep Ange from coming, they did for another reason and the letter writer found out in time, or they're working with the letter writer.
I think the second is most likely; Rudolf and Kyrie have their own plan for the conference, and Ange must be kept away for some reason. Only problem is, why would they not want to risk Ange's life but risk Battler's? Or if the plan isn't supposed to risk anybody's life, why not bring Ange along? Her absence is quite suspicious, though it doesn't necessarily mean there's anything more to it. I mean she could actually be sick, after all.

All right these are the right screenshots however I'd like to point out that the professor didn't say straight away that the writing is the same. He's going by memory and he himself isn't so sure.
As for the second matter
1) the witch's record isn't red text, there is no need to think it is 100% accurate. Actually if you look it carefully it was created in a way to be deceiving. It first tells you that the police found a "gruesome scene" and then jumps on the fact that this was later known as the "rokkenjima serial murder" completely omitting to say that this was due to magazines and talk shows and not because the police actually backed this. Since they omitted this important part there's nothing strange in the fact many other things were omitted.
2) If you claim that the episode3 continuity is different than episode1 or episode2 continuity, then you could as well say that the handwriting stuff also only applies to episode3.
But I don't believe so because the witch's record and what the future of episode3 shows are perfectly compatible. Anything that seems a difference can be explained by omissions in the way the facts are presented. In other words they describe the same thing. The witch's record differs only in that it gives more fragmented informations.
In conclusion I see little reasons for Ryukishi to have shown to us a future scenario that has only relevance for a single timiline. What Ange found out about Beatrice must apply to all the games to have any meaning.
To Renall.
You made a very nice analysis there. However that amount of money if we suppose that every locker contains the same amount is way too huge to be explained with a mere servant pay. Even Shannon can't possibly have that cash.
I think the only possible solutions are:
1) Since Beatrice owns the gold she converted into money a few ingots. As far as I know they were never counted, and even the anime shows a pyramid that appears to be short of a hundred ingots to reach 1000.
2) There is an external collaborator that provided the money to Beatrice. But who would make such an useless investment?

I would consider the letter-writer knowing that Battler would be there relatively unsuspicious. There would be a limited amount of time that this could be known, but I think it would have had to be announced a reasonable amount of time before October 4th, because it would be impolite to the hosts to have someone there that had not been planned for. I feel that knowing that Ange would not be there is the much more suspicious point. Still, very early on the 4th this seems to be common knowledge. I assume that on the 3rd or perhaps even the 2nd, the fact that Ange would not be arriving would be known to most. The messages in a bottle would have to be changed and Ange would need to get a money letter, but substituting someone else's to give her one (our favorite Sumadera maybe?) might accomplish the latter, and writing the message bottles wouldn't take TOO long. It depends on who we want to suspect here and what we want to accuse them of.
I don't think we can be sure enough to state it in red that the letter-writer him-or-herself was on Niijima on October 3rd. It could easily have been an accomplice. It's very likely, though.
It's interesting about the letter-writer not seeming to know that Kinzo is dead if the messages describe episodes one and two. (Though, could someone please point me in the direction of the scene where Ange relates the contents of the bottle messages and they actually sound like the first two episodes? I'm sure it's just somewhere blindingly obvious since everyone seems to think that's what happened, but I can't remember anything like that and searching the script for key words is getting me nowhere.) However, episodes one and two do contain a lot of clear hints in that direction (for example, in episode two, no one ever seems to worry about Kinzo's safety, and even as everyone becomes more paranoid, no one accuses Kinzo of running around being the killer, even though that would be a completely valid guess if no one's seen the body, which does not get burned or ever show up, and you're assuming that only dead people are eliminated from suspicion...

Workworkwork, replying to your Episode 4 thread post:
Knox's 10th Commandment: Disguising oneself as another character without any clues to that effect is forbidden. It is a violation of the 17-human limit for Kumasawa and a hypothetical Kumasawa!Beatrice to be alive on the island at the time Maria is given the letter. So long as you cannot present foreshadowing that Kumasawa is dead prior to everyone arriving on the island on October 4th, you cannot introduce Kumasawa!Beatrice as a character.

Then in episode 3, during the magic scene, we see Kumasawa turning into Virgilia. This is enough to provide a clue that there's more to Kumasawa than we see.

Even if the writer wrote the letters after the incident he might have told the same stories, you don't know what exactly is his plan but we know for sure that telling an accurate or credible story wasn't part of his project anyway.

It isn't the same thing. In ep5 the theory of someone disguising as Rosa was denied.
I can't see why the same shouldn't apply to Kumasawa or anyone else. Of course you can still say that someone is disguised as one of the 18, but you need to provide a clue.

I don't think anyone should have disguised himself/herself as Beatrice, if we're talking about Maria, since she's quite gullible. In EP3, she easily recognised EVA as Beatrice, right after she called herself that way. So, I think anyone could easily have just told Maria he/she was Beatrice, and she'd probably have believed it.
As for the person Battler met in EP4, would that count as a disguise? I mean, that person was wearing casual clothes. Wouldn't that defeat the purpose of trying to pose as the Golden Witch Beatrice?

Actually, now that I think on it I think you're right and it's the opposite; the letter-writer probably does know Kinzo is dead, but is forgetting that this knowledge carries over into their scenarios.
Thus, no one accuses Kinzo of being the killer even though he's never accounted-for and has a near-impenetrable hideout to retreat to. No one seems terribly concerned for his safety. The few times it's mentioned they suggest he's safe in his study, but they don't know whether he stays there (it's noted he might leave when he gets hungry) and if the killer can enter seemingly locked rooms, why can't the killer get into the study somehow? He's mentioned and shown, but never seriously considered as an alive person ought to be in the story.
It seems reasonable, I guess, that the letter writer - if indeed the events of the episodes were what was written in the bottles and not something else entirely - knew Kinzo was dead, but had to pretend that Kinzo was not dead. They just didn't do a very good job of it.
Of course, if you knew Kinzo was dead, why would his body turn up in the same burned circumstances three games out of four? If you're just writing imaginary scenarios where everyone dies, you wouldn't need to do that. Which makes me suspect the messages in bottles don't describe any episode at all.
EDIT: Also, I see no reason the messages in bottles would just stop the way the games do. If the story in the bottle were episode 1, for instance, why would you just end right where it ends? What happens to the children? What happens to Beatrice? ep3 and 4 are also somewhat abrupt. We can guess and infer what happens from the epilogue and witch's record, but Ange suggests the messages describe everyone dying. So unless they also end with "And then everyone left died, THE END," I have to think the messages in the bottles suggest an endgame scenario that we've never seen come to pass. Ange would be aware of this, but she never brings it up. She also never brings up whether she's in any of the letters.

I was wondering reading your post:
Could it be that the "missing" in the game record could suggest that there is survivors?
For example, is there any indication in Ep3/4 that Jessica's corpse was found? It could be a hint for telling us that if there is survivors, they could have reasons to hide themselves.

You guys think there's a lot more stuff Ange knows that she's not telling us?
...It would probably be very easy to figure this out just by looking at her notebook, though.

Maria's jaw, her JAW, was found in the aftermath of Ep1. I seem to recall that the only reason they couldn't identify them as dead was because, except for the large amount of blood, there weren't any identifiable remains.
