Pierre Virlogeux, dit Vernier, époux de Claude Rodier, ingénieur céramiste, chef d'entreprise, commandant des MUR (Mouvements unis de la Résistance) d'Auvergne, né le  à Cérilly (Allier) et mort le  à Riom (Puy-de-Dôme), fut, jusqu'à son décès dans les geôles du SD (Sicherheitsdienst) de Clermont-Ferrand, un des principaux chefs de la Résistance française en Auvergne, pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale.

Biographie

Origine et formation
Pierre Virlogeux naît le  dans une ferme installée au lieu-dit « le Grand Pernier », commune de Cérilly dont son grand-père fut maire entre 1929 et 1935. Il est issu d'une famille paysanne qui se partage depuis plusieurs générations entre l'agriculture et les activités sylvicoles en raison de la proximité de la forêt de Tronçais.

Sa culture familiale est fortement marquée à gauche dans un Bourbonnais rural où le métayage est plus fréquent que le fermage.

Élève brillant et doté de talents artistiques certains, il bénéficie de l'ascenseur social qui le conduira à étudier à l'École nationale supérieure des beaux-arts de Bourges, puis à intégrer l'École nationale supérieure de céramique industrielle, encore installée à Sèvres dans les locaux de la Manufacture.

Ce choix d'orienter sa carrière vers la céramique n'est sans doute pas un hasard. La coexistence, dans le Bourbonnais, de l'air, du kaolin (la terre), de l'eau et du bois (le feu) en faisait un lieu idéal pour cette industrie comme en témoigne le roman de Suzanne Lavisse-Serre, Les Enfants de la Porcelaine dont l'action se passe à Cérilly et dont l'un des personnages porte le nom homonyme de Pierre Virlogeux.

Pierre Virlogeux est diplômé ingénieur céramiste DPLG en 1921,  de l'ENSCI de Sèvres, promotion qui comptait quatre élèves.

Avant la Seconde Guerre mondiale

Pierre Virlogeux épouse le  une jeune agrégée de physique, Claude Rodier, ancienne élève de Paul Langevin à l'École normale supérieure de jeunes filles  de Sèvres (ENSFJ).

Ils s'installent en 1929 à Riom, Puy-de-Dôme où Pierre Virlogeux crée une usine Les Grès Flammés.

La production de l'usine est diversifiée :
 aménagement  d'intérieur (ex : couvres radiateurs) ;
 laves émaillées (ex. :  conduites de tir, dioramas touristiques) ;
 mobilier urbain (ex :  fontaines, panneaux directionnels « Michelin») ;
 architecture (ex : décoration d'établissements thermaux auvergnats) (Établissement thermal du Mont-Dore).

Pour les besoins d'approvisionnement de son entreprise, Pierre Virlogeux est amené à acheter une carrière de pierre de Volvic.

Il est adhérent de la SFIO et franc-maçon (Grand Orient de France).

De son union avec Claude Rodier naissent deux fils : Jean (1927-2006) et Marc (1934-2008).

Pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale

Entrée en résistance
Il est assez rare de pouvoir documenter l'  « entrée en Résistance » d'une personne. S'agissant de Pierre Virlogeux, celle-ci est documentée. Elle a lieu dès 1940, quand l'Université de Strasbourg trouve refuge à Clermont-Ferrand. Pierre Virlogeux accueille alors un couple d'enseignants des Vosges d'origine juive, dont la femme était condisciple de Claude Rodier à l'École normale supérieure de jeunes filles de Sèvres, et le mari en contact, depuis le début de la guerre, avec les services secrets britanniques.

Si l'affiliation originelle aux réseaux du Special Operations Executive (SOE) — et plus particulièrement aux réseaux Buckmaster (SOE en France) — est avérée, un doute existe sur le nom exact du réseau dont Pierre Virlogeux était membre. Tout porte à croire qu'il s'agissait du Réseau Alibi, d'autres riomois, dont le maire de Riom (1965-1971), ancien résistant, ancien déporté au camp de Buchenwald, lié à la famille Virlogeux, acteur des hommages rendus par la Ville, Guy Thomas, fut un membre attesté.

Actions de résistance
L'activité durant la période qui va de 1940 à fin 1942 n'est a priori pas documentée.

Virlogeux prend part activement à la création des Mouvements unis de la Résistance, terminée en  et qui, dans le cadre de la réunion des principaux mouvements de résistance de la zone sud, donna naissance aux MUR d'Auvergne.

À cette date, la zone sous sa responsabilité s'étend de Riom, au sud, à Cosne-d'Allier, au nord, à La Souterraine à l'ouest, un territoire un peu plus vaste que les Combrailles. Vichy, siège de l' « État français »  et Clermont-Ferrand sont tout proches.

Arrestation

L'arrestation du point de vue du SD
Interrogatoire de Georges Mathieu, Affaires Mathieu et autres, Clermont-Ferrand, "

"Expédition dans la région de Riom :

D'une part, les interrogatoires du commandant Madeline et de l'adjudant (de gendarmerie) Dodinet, d'autre part, les archives de Saint-Maurice (il s'agit de la fameuse serviette d'Émile Coulaudon, trouvée le , au château de Saint-Maurice, près de Billom, comportant la liste des camps et dirigeants des MUR du Puy-de-Dôme, avec leurs vrais noms et leurs pseudonymes, et bien d'autres choses encore) nous donnèrent les renseignements nécessaires.

Dodinet qui était originaire de Riom, donna les noms de Perol, Virlogeux, Passemard, Robin. Les archives de Saint-Maurice avaient fourni les noms de Laborier, Marconnet et Labrousse, le capitaine de gendarmerie Berger et de Raynaud. Enfin, un renseignement du SB (Sonderkommando Blumenkampf, du nom de son chef, arrivé à Clermont en ) avait signalé Chouvy.

On devait aller non seulement à Riom mais à Ennezat où les dirigeants du M.U.R. devaient être arrêtés.

Le , le SD au complet partit pour Riom. Immédiatement fut arrêté le nommé Chouvy. À 5 heures les opérations commencèrent. Dodinet guida la Gestapo. On arrêta Virlogeux avec toute sa famille, Laborier, Perol, qui nous avait été montré par Dodinet alors qu"il se trouvait sur la place de la Fédération. À la maison centrale, le gardien Passemard nous échappa. Ensuite furent arrêtés Marconnet, Labrousse et le capitaine de gendarmerie Berger. Ensuite, on se rendit chez Robin qui était en fuite. Raynaud avait été oublié et les perquisitions ne donnèrent aucun résultat.

 À 5 heures (du soir ?) on interrogea les prisonniers. J'allai voir si le nommé Menut, alias Benevol (Max Menut était déjà dans le Cantal), n'était pas chez lui mais il était en fuite. Nous arrêtâmes l'abbé Anneser.

L'arrestation, le témoignage de Jean Virlogeux
Jean Virlogeux, fils aîné de Pierre Virlogeux, a fêté son  anniversaire le . Après avoir tenté, l'année précédente, de rejoindre le maquis et ramené "manu militari" par des amis de son père à la maison, il suit celui-ci dans ses actions comme "estafette", participe à la récupération de parachutages...

Arrêté avec son père, le , il témoigne :

Le Kommando du SIPO-SD
En , le SIPO-SD (Sicherheitspolizeide Clermont-Ferrand est commandé par Paul Blumenkampf, un ancien boucher reconverti dans la police politique, secondée par une secrétaire, ancienne étudiante allemande de l'Université de Strasbourg repliée à Clermont-Ferrand, Ursula Brandt, dite "La Panthère" (en raison d'un manteau qu'elle portait régulièrement).

Le SIPO-SD peut, pour des opérations importantes comme la rafle contre les étudiants-résistants de l'Université de Strasbourg repliée à Clermont-Ferrand, faire appel aux forces de police politique ou militaire de l'occupant allemand.

Dans le cadre de l' "aktion" du , si la présence d'Ursula Brandt est avérée, le sonderkommando du SIPO-SD est uniquement constitué de collaborateurs français dont les principaux sont Georges Mathieu et Jean Vernières.

Georges Mathieu, étudiant en lettres de l'université de Clermont-Ferrand, aurait passé le concours de Saint-Cyr, infiltre les mouvements de résistance d'Auvergne ; il est le principal responsable du démantèlement du réseau constitué par les étudiants de l'université de Strasbourg repliée à Clermont-Ferrand, chef du Sonderkommando français du SIPO-SD de Clermont-Ferrand, responsable à ce titre de plusieurs dizaines d'arrestations. Fusillé à la Libération.

Jean Vernières, né à Clermont-Ferrand, requis au STO, a l'occasion de visiter Auschwitz comme "mouton", de retour en Auvergne s'engage au service du SD "par idéal anti-communiste", réputé pour sa cruauté dans les interrogatoires. Fusillé à la Libération.

Le suicide de Pierre Virlogeux
Arrêté vers  du matin (heure allemande), Pierre Virlogeux est amené dans sa cellule du quartier disciplinaire de la Caserne d'Anterroche, en fin de journée, les membres brisés (Jean Vernières a pris sa part aux tortures). Dans les cellules contiguës se trouvent son fils aîné, Jean, et l'instituteur Charles Chouvy arrêté dans la même rafle.

C'est ce dernier, qui au retour de déportation (Auschwitz et Buchenwald, témoignera, dans une lettre manuscrite datée du  (Jean Virlogeux ne rentrera de déportation que le ), des derniers instants et des derniers mots de Pierre Virlogeux :

Pierre Virlogeux s'était ouvert les veines avec le verre brisé de ses lunettes et pendu avec un lacet.

Le corps est enfoui, avec un autre cadavre, dans un puisard de la caserne.

Lors de son interrogatoire, Georges Mathieu affirmera dans un premier temps ignorer où est le corps, avant d'en indiquer la localisation.

Après l'exhumation, les restes de Pierre Virlogeux sont placés dans un caveau décoré de carreaux de grès flammés, dans le « nouveau » cimetière de Cérilly, dans l'Allier.

Après-guerre

Les polémiques de l'Après-guerre
Comme dans de nombreuses villes françaises, la guerre avait laissé d'importantes fractures entre les habitants et, en particulier, entre la bourgeoisie locale (attentiste, voire collaborationniste) et tous ceux qui avaient participé aux combats de la Résistance. En témoignent les incidents qui eurent lieu, en 1948 (probablement autour du ), à l'occasion d'une commémoration à la mémoire des résistants locaux en général et de Pierre Virlogeux en particulier, entre la Section de Riom F.F.I-F.T.P.F et les autorités locales.

Reconnaissance

Après la guerre, la municipalité de Riom fait rebaptiser l'avenue qui conduit du centre ville à la gare SNCF Riom-Châtelguyon « avenue Virlogeux ». Au long de cette avenue est érigé le monument en hommage à Claude Rodier et Pierre Virlogeux, fait d'une pierre taillée en forme de menhir, sur un socle en carreaux de grès flammés, portant en son centre un médaillon réalisé par Pierre Virlogeux représentant Claude Rodier de profil, et surmonté d'un buste autoportrait de Pierre Virlogeux. Le jardin public du  qui borde cette avenue est également renommé « square Virlogeux ». Enfin, le lycée public construit sur l'emprise de la caserne d'Antherron, où se suicida Pierre Virlogeux et où son corps fut caché par le SD de Clermont-Ferrand, est baptisé « lycée Claude-et-Pierre-Virlogeux ».

La municipalité de Cérilly (Allier) fait également baptiser le jardin public qui jouxte le monument aux morts du village « square Pierre-Virlogeux ».

Une salle de l'École nationale supérieure de céramique industrielle à Limoges lui a été dédiée en 2013. Il avait été étudiant de cette école quand elle était encore installée à Sèvres.

Welcome everyone to MD Financials first ever Platinum podcast. My name is Edward Golding and I am the lead PM for our MDPIM Platinum Global Private Equity Pool and our MDPIM Platinum Global Real Estate Pool. Joining me is Vice President and Senior PM Craig Maddock. For 50 years, MD has empowered Canadian physicians to reach their long-term financial goals, now MD Platinum expands physician's investment opportunities as we provide exclusive access to institutional investment opportunities in the form of global private equity and our current offering global private real estate.
Today's podcast as we mentioned is the first podcast dedicated to our platinum offering and going forward we will be hosting a platinum podcast every quarter to review everything from performance, investments, industry trends and new product offerings from MD. For today's podcast we are going to provide an update on the MDPIM Global Private Equity Pool.
Craig maybe you can provide a high-level summary of the investments we have made as of April 1st. The pool began operations in July 2018 and there has been tremendous progress in the number of investments over the past 9 months. As of April 1st, the pool has made 11 investments committing $22.6 million in capital for a total of 22% of total capital committed to the pool. Of that $22.6 million, $13 million are commitments to primary funds – which are new PE funds managed by third party PE managers, $2.4 million are commitments to secondary funds – which are PE funds that are of an older vintage and are traded on a secondary market, and $7.2 million are commitments to direct investments or in other words an investment into a specific company.
From a geographic perspective $8.4 million is invested in the US, $3.1 million in Europe, $3.3 million in Asia-Pacific, and $7.8 million in Global investments. When we examine it from an industry perspective, $3.6 million is invested in Software, $3.8 million in Insurance, $1.3 million in Health Care, $1.1 million in Energy, and $12.9 million are in diversified industries. Ed maybe you can now get more specific and do a deep dive into one of the investments we have made on behalf of our physician clients. Thanks Craig, in September 2018, we invested $1.3 million of our client's capital in a company called Envision Healthcare Corporation in a take-private deal alongside the lead sponsor of the deal KKR & Co.
The deal agreed to pay Envision shareholders $46 per share which represented a 32% premium to the volume weighted average price since the company first announced its review of strategic alternatives in November 2017. The total transaction cost including fees was $10.6 billion which represents and entry multiple of 11.1x Q1 2018 LTM EBITDA (which is earnings before interest taxes depreciation and amortization). The acquisition was financed with $3.5 billion in equity and $7.3 billion in debt. Envision Healthcare Corporation is a leading provider of outsourced physician services to hospitals and national operator of ambulatory surgical centers across 45 states. Envision employs or contracts with over 25,000 physicians across numerous specialties and operates with three main segments: Physician services (which represents 80% of revenues) is a leading provider of outsourced physician services across multiple specialties within hospitals and other healthcare facilities.
The company treads over 30 million patients per year. Envision has the leading US market share in Emergency Department and hospitalist medicine services and is also the leading anesthesia provider to hospital surgery departments in the US. Ambulatory Surgical Centers which represents 16% of revenues is a leading owner and operator of single and multi-specialty ambulatory surgical centers in 35 states with 264 facilities. The company performs 1.7 million surgical procedures per year. Evolution which represents 4% of revenues is Envisions post-acute continuum of care, including home health, hospice and infusion therapy.
We made this investment on behalf of our physician clients due to several compelling reasons: Favorable industry outlook and secular tailwinds The company is an industry leader with nationwide and diversified market presence Strong growth potential Favorable reimbursement outlook Capital efficient business with attractive cash flow generation Ability to pursue accretive M&A in a fragmented market With our thesis being very positive it is our expectations that the holding period for this company is approximately five years with an exit in 2023. The exit could be in the form of selling to another PE firm, a strategic buyer or take the company public again. Over the five-year time horizon, it is our expectation that management will grow revenues organically and through small strategic acquisitions by approximately 6% annually and to grow EBITDA by 8% annually.
The increase in profitability over the five-year holding period should also allow the company to pay down approximately $1 billion in debt and lower the debt to EBITDA ratio from 6.5x at the close of the transaction to 4.2x in 2023. While we are forecasting for contraction of the exit multiple relative to our entry multiple, the increase in profitability and the paying down of debt is expected to provide our investors with a return north of 20% and a multiple of capital more than 2.5x. With that we are coming to an end to this quarter's podcast.
As a reminder our MDPIM Platinum Global Real Estate Pool is currently available for sale. Please contact your advisor for details as soon as possible as the closing for the pool is in June of this year.

The Alton Towers Dungeon - New for 2019

Re: The Alton Towers Dungeon - New for 2019
As reported on TowersTimes social media, whilst the Dungeon will have a later opening, the attraction will typically operate the same number of hours a day, with operations continuing after park close on certain days.
This change means that guests will have greater choice in managing their time between the Dungeon and the rest of the Resort.

It seems on most days they've taken two hours off the morning and added an hour in the evening, so an hour less overall on the majority of days.
Cutting hours just over a month after opening is unusual, even by Merlin's standards! I actually thought the Dungeon was great, better than I expected, but it just won't work long term as an upcharge in a theme park, especially one with opening hours as short as Alton.
Why can't Merlin just invest in sensible long term attractions like a normal theme park company!? I mean, you expect one or two failed attractions every now and then, but Merlin seem to be scoring own goals every year or two

Guests booking hotel stays can opt to purchase a Dungeon ticket with timeslots starting from at least 11:30am, so the total number of operating hours should remain broadly the same.
For me, it kind of highlights that perhaps this attraction isn't in the best location. I enjoyed it, but felt it would have been an even better Resort level attraction nearer the hotels that could be done in an evening. But of course, then they wouldn't have had access to the ride system.

Remaining open after park close might actually make more people want to do it, as they won't see it as taking up time from their day

Leek Signs have posted some photos of new posters which have been added to the exterior black walls. Also, if you look closely, it appears that the permanent fire torches have now been installed on the entrance facade - I'm not sure how recent a development that is.
As seen in the photos above, the torches have also been installed, but they are currently not lit.
Here is a picture that I took today...

It is surprising how something so small and so simple as that can take so long to install, to the point where they actually have to use CGI to feature them in the advert. That is very bizarre.
Location: The Barricade
Seeing as we're at the end of the year, and as I haven't already done one, I thought I'd do a bit of a critical review of The Alton Towers Dungeon.
A bit on my views on the Dungeons "brand" and this style of attraction first. Anyone who knows me will know that I adore horror and theatre, and with the Dungeons promising to be a combination of both in a fully immersive environment, I should enjoy them. Unfortunately, that isn't the case. I've only experienced two other Dungeons (Warwick and London), and my main frustration with them is that the vast majority of scripts and shows between the two are identical, and sadly I don't really find the scripts that entertaining. You know at some point there'll be a fake out guest-selection, the rats will run under your seats, and the Torturer will demonstrate a rather cheeky instrument- to name just a few. Very little changes between attractions. Once you've done one, you've kind of seen them all- and it feels that way with the Alton Towers version.
After a re-arranged intro sequence (gone is the Jester, and the Judge is moved to the start rather than their usual appearance towards the end), we start the attraction with arguably the most unique, and anticipated part of the experience with The Black River, which uses the old boat transit system that's been SBNO for the past few seasons. The boat ride starts off promisingly with a delicious haze and projection effect- but before you've really had time to appreciate it, there's a very cheap-feeling animated jump from above that feels like it has no relevance. I can't help but feel it'd work better with a slower start before progressing, and that it'd be nicer focussing more on atmosphere rather than jumps. The rest of the ride actually follows suit in that respect- we sail past various grisly torture sequences and screens of men literally being severed- but there's... something lacking. I can't quite put my finger on what it is. Is it not dark enough? Does it feel too cheap? Is there a lack of narrative and direction? It feels like the answer to those are, sadly, yes.
What follows is fairly standard Dungeon stuff- and unfortunately, I don't believe there are any truly unique shows on offer. Whilst the scripts have certainly been polished, the general structure of each speech remains and scenes generally play out in the same way as before.
One thing that seems to be lacking in The Alton Towers Dungeon that divides opinions are the incredibly sparse incidental corridors that link scenes. To get to the next room, guests briefly pass through an unthemed corridor. Whilst the flow and pace of the experience is greatly benefitted by transitions being quick, it's a shame to see the omission of the larger sets seen elsewhere. My favourite parts of London are in-fact the pathways between as they feel like a much more traditional walkthrough attraction. I can understand why these don't feature at Alton Towers, but just leaving them blank means the experience isn't truly "fully-immersive" as promised.
Despite the lacking sets and the dated scripting, I will commend the cast and crew. Perhaps it's because I've only experienced this Dungeon within it's first few months, but all the actors felt really fresh and active, which is a far cry from the other two Dungeons I've sampled. I've done multiple runs of both Warwick and London this year, and it always felt like the cast were either over-worked, or couldn't really care about their delivery. Thankfully the cast at Towers seem like they always have energy to spare, and at no point did it feel like there was a weak link in the chain.
The most important thing of any piece of media or entertainment is whether it's enjoyable or not, and... well, it pains me to say this, but I don't really enjoy The Alton Towers Dungeon. Whilst the acting quality is incredible, the scripts and stories themselves are the issue- they just aren't funny or scary. I stand by my original thoughts on the attraction- if I wanted to do a Dungeon, I'd just go to one that's closer, or included in my annual pass. There's no unique scene that makes the Alton Towers one a "must-see", and with the short operating hours of the park, it'd feel silly to try and squeeze in a Dungeon run. Whilst I can appreciate that the attraction was very last-minute, I can't see myself giving it another go. Perhaps my biggest frustration is there's a yearning for more entertainments and street theatre at the Resort, and the only time we get it during main-season is in an up-charge format that we can see elsewhere.
I was pretty against the upcharge of this before it opened, regardless of the reason being due to its terrible throughput, and at the end of the season I'm still heavily against it.
Even on a cold day with nothing much else I wanted to do, I felt no inclination to go back into the Dungeon.
In terms of the script, I've seen videos of practically the exact same script and rooms used at The San Francisco Dungeon. So yeah, it's definitely something that has been thinly spread across the however many of these things Merlin seemingly operate now.

Not sure I can ever feel anything but bitterness to this ride. At the expense of sounding like a broken record, closing a family ride (something that's an endangered species at the park) and then putting an up-charge in its shell was a terrible move. I pity the poor member of staff who had to keep turning people away telling them they had to purchase pre-booked tickets endlessly all day.
Convert the acted segments into a higher capacity walk through experience with props and interactive elements (without any expensive actors) and make it a normal theme park ride. Suspect it'll go back to being mothballed again though.

Now I am ready to blast off.
To state it nicely, my water is unacceptable.
Who is to blame and why hasn't sufficient money been spent to improve a fundamental need—and a human right—which is clean and drinkable water?
And sorry, but I don't feel the government's pain when they say they are out of money. And I blame both the Democrats and the Republicans for my brown and undrinkable water situation.
Since my last blog post, I have purchased a 10-cup Zero Water filtration system which seems to work well. I have been using the filtered water for coffee and boiling but will stick to Poland Spring for drinking.
I have also diligently continued my research as to why certain contaminants deemed unsafe in our drinking water remain unregulated by the EPA.
And more importantly, I have been researching so see if those contaminants are lurking in my dark brown and undrinkable water. And make no mistake about it, my research results have been fairly frightening.
Huh? Thank you for your assurances, water company, but if all of the above is true, please explain why my water is brown?
I would like to share a recent example of people thinking their water is safe to drink based on testing and state assurances and then found out otherwise.
The New York Times had an article on Tuesday, March 15, regarding tainted water in Vermont and New York.
In recent weeks, several private wells in North Bennington Vermont have tested positive for the industrial chemical perfluorooctanoic acid, or PFOA. This contaminant has been linked to cancer, thyroid and heart disease, serious pregnancy complications, and birth defects, making North Bennington the latest in a growing list of American communities unsettled by a contaminated water scare.
PFOA was also discovered in the public drinking water in the village of Hoosick Falls, N.Y., prompting residents to rely on bottled water amid charges that the state took far too long to respond to the problem. It was also found in public wells in Petersburgh, N.Y., the site of a plastics factory south of Hoosick Falls.
Not surprising to me, the state of New York has repeatedly assured citizens of Hoosick Falls that their water was safe.
And last week, as environmental officials in New York and Vermont searched for other potentially contaminated areas, officials in Merrimack, N.H., announced that PFOA had been discovered there as well.
And the number of people found to be drinking water tainted by PFOA is almost certain to grow.
PFOA was once used to manufacture non-stick pans, microwaveable popcorn wrappers, and Gore-Tex boots— and practically anything that is non-stick, stain-resistant or water-repellent. But the health effects PFOA causes and the way it spreads and contaminates are not well understood.
And even more alarming was that when I checked out which 27 states had PFOA in their water, New York was one of them.
And guess what? It turns out that my county—Nassau—via the Town of Hempstead Water District, serving 110,000 people, has PFOA in its water.
Does that mean my water contains PFOA?
Even though New York State was advised that there were concerning levels of PFOA present in the water going back as far as 2005, they claim that no one did anything about it because PFOA was and remains an unregulated EPA contaminant.
Sounds to me like someone is trying to pass the buck.
And according to scientists, even as the chemical PFOA continues to contaminate water across the country, government agencies, from local health departments to the federal EPA, have yet to grapple with the full extent of the problem, or what it will take to clean it up.
It doesn't take a scientist to tell me that the EPA needs to lower the level at which it says water containing PFOA is safe to drink. ASAP.
I mean come on already. Can the EPA assure me that my water, which may or may not contain PFOA, is safe to drink? And can my water company give me the same assurance?
When I had my hot water heater and pipes flushed out a couple of weeks ago, the company I used—Hot Water Plus—told me that they usually offer a 60-day clear water guarantee. Oh, but not in my neighborhood.
Maybe my water company can give me some insight as to why not?
And speaking of my water company, I recently noticed a water main flushing advertisement in my local paper, letting customers know that New York American Water is preparing to flush the water mains in its distribution system to help them provide us with high-quality water service.
Oh, and by the way, customers may experience discolored water. The flushing will take place Monday through Friday between 4/11 and 4/21—a whopping nine days.
I can only imagine what color my water will look like after they flush.
The advertisement also suggested we go to their website and view our water quality report. Except that, one needs to be a rocket scientist to read and understand it.
Here is what I have to say to my water company: Based on your claims, that the water delivered to my county residents may meet all drinking water standards, but that doesn't mean it is safe and/or drinkable.
Many state officials, including New York, have suggested that the absence of strong guidelines from the EPA is at fault for the tainted water problems residents all over the country have recently uncovered.
And yet many of those residents had to aggressively push their local governments to look into the situation—instead of the other way around.
Our local government is responsible for managing and delivering a range of quality services to their communities, including drinkable water, correct?
The American water crisis is an example of government failure, unpreparedness, intransigence, inaction, delay, denial and environmental injustice.
But never underestimate the power of citizen engagement and our ability to speak out and protest against government inaction.
Thankfully there are concerned Americans out there who are willing to question and challenge government leadership.
And thanks also to a free press, the watchdogs who uncover the injustices and shout it out to the masses.
This blog post is going to be more like a slog post, but please bear with it, because you will not believe our nation's water situation.
Here is the million dollar question: Do you know what's in your tap water?
As you can see from the picture of my water last week, I certainly had no clue as to what was in my tap water. And after umpteen hours and days of research, I still don't.
All data and information provided in this blog post are for informational purposes only. And since pouring through the various information on many governmental and water supplier websites, was like trying to cure cancer, I make no representations as to accuracy, completeness, currentness, suitability, or validity of any information in this blog post and will not be liable for any errors, omissions, or delays in this information or any losses, injuries, or damages arising from its display or use. All information is provided on an as-is basis.
Okay, now I'm ready to start at the very beginning.
Every year, the Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA), the legal basis for regulating public drinking water, requires all water suppliers to submit an annual report to every customer on contaminants in their drinking water (EPA 2006c).
But from my research, it doesn't seem that these reports show us what's really in our tap water. They don't contain information on unregulated chemicals for which testing is not required by states or the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), and they provide only average levels of most contaminants.
So the water companies are able to tell their customers that they are delivering clean, high-quality drinking water, an incredible accomplishment considering the subpar quality of the water in many cases, including mine.
Because the federal standards that the SDWA has set, doesn't necessarily guarantee your water is perfectly safe to drink.
According to what I was able to find on the EPA.gov website, over seven hundred substances have been cataloged as potential contaminants, yet under the 1974 SDWA, there are only 90 contaminants public water systems need to worry about, report or test.
Additionally, since 2004, more than half of the chemicals detected through testing can legally be present in any amount because they are not subject to health or safety regulations.
More disturbing than the slim picking and choosing of contaminants—the Safe Drinking Water Act has a Contaminant Candidate List (CCL) of 100 chemicals and 12 microbial contaminants that are currently not subject to any drinking water regulations whatsoever, but are known or anticipated to occur in public water systems. This list includes pesticides, disinfection byproducts, chemicals used in commerce, pharmaceuticals, and waterborne pathogens.
Say that again? At least five in five years?
Over the years, I have taken many photos of my discolored water and even called New York American Water to complain about and report the problem. Each and every time I called I was reassured that my water was safe and the discolored and sometimes foul-smelling water was temporary, and due to the flushing out of their pipes.
Except that my water would be brown or smell funky much more often than just when New York American Water flushed their system. And it wasn't just the water. I have on many occasions been forced to throw out my ice because it looked completely fine, but the smell was so rancid that it stunk up my freezer.
And the water has wreaked havoc on my toilet bowls, discoloring them with stripes of dark brown leaving me paranoid that my guests think that I don't clean well.
For those of you who know me personally, it's no secret that I am a manic germaphobe and a neat freak. So how did this horrendous water situation sneak past me?
When buying a refrigerator a few years ago, I made a point of staying away from any models with a water dispenser. After ditching my smelly refrigerator ice, I certainly wasn't rushing to drink water from any fridge. Thanks but no thanks.
And I long ago stopped drinking the tap water. But let's be real here. I shower and brush my teeth with it, bathe in it, use it for cooking and coffee, and wash my raw fruits and vegetables in it.
This water is in every pore of my body without ever having to drink a drop of it.
A month or so ago, the flow of my hot water seemed compromised and I noticed that when taking a shower it was running cold very quickly. I also noticed a weird metal-like taste combined with a strong chlorine smell to the water and started to see dirt-like sediment sitting on the bottom of all of my toilet bowls.
Last week, my hot water became so brown and foul smelling that I made an emergency call to a plumber who recommended that I empty out my water heater and flush my pipes—immediately.
"This is what you've been drinking," the plumber repeated over and over again as he emptied the filthy, sludgy water out of my cold and hot water pipes.
And he was adamant that everyone should flush out their systems once a year.
Who knew? When was the last time you emptied your hot water heater and flushed your pipes?
I then jumped right on my hot water heater company's website to see if they had any manufacturer's recommendations and found absolutely nothing.
Getting back to New York American's website. There was also a section on what they are doing to improve the water. Except that, it's dated 2013.
So does that mean they haven't updated this section for 2+ years? As we saw from Flint, a lot can happen in two years.
Now I consider myself to be an intelligent and healthy minded woman. I am, however, appalled and embarrassed that I had absolutely no clue that I was supposed to flush anything but my toilets. But after witnessing the muck and gunk that oozed out of my faucets and water heater, I'm on official 12-month flushing notice. Make that a 6-month notice.
Just as a reminder, take another look at my water.
New York American Water scores among the highest of all water companies? The sludge and filth in my photos surely tell an entirely different story.
After carefully scrutinizing the New York American Water website, I kept going back to my photos and videos and couldn't help but wonder what score the federal regulators would give the dregs that spewed out of my pipes and hot water heater.
I doubt they would give it a 100.
I also kept going back to Flint Michigan. For nearly two years, the residents there have been slowly poisoned by lead in their drinking water. If our federal regulators dropped the water ball there, maybe they missed something in my little hamlet.
And if my photos are any indication of what my neighbors may have lurking in their pipes and hot water heaters, (according to the plumber who flushed out my system they all have what I have), I sincerely hope they are reading this blog.
I continued to do my due diligence and spent days researching various sites hoping for some shred of good news. But that wasn't in the water cards. All I found were more and more alarming tidbits.
The bottom line is that sewer overflows and aging infrastructure are significant contributors to drinking water quality problems in our country. And our nation has failed to invest the funds needed to renew and replace our essential drinking water infrastructure. The result is an antiquated system that not only poses serious health and safety risks but is also prone to dangerous leaks and failures.
Ten long years ago, the American Society of Civil Engineers gave American drinking water infrastructure an overall grade of D-minus. According to the study, our declining water system, including aging wastewater facilities and leaking drinking-water pipes are a threat to the nation's prosperity. The study went on to say that time was working against our country's infrastructure and that it would cost untold billions of dollars to replace aging facilities that are near the end of their useful lives and to comply with existing and future federal water regulations.
And speaking of federal water regulations: From what I read, legal limits are established by the Safe Drinking Water Act, although a stricter health guideline for drinking water quality has been created by the World Health Organization. A least, I think it's the WHO. It was near impossible to get a precise fix on who does what.
So in many cases, your water may contain contaminants below legal limits, but above health guidelines. This part of my research was very clear.
Does my water look legal and/or healthy to you?
According to the Environment Working Group website, the water in my county from test data available from 2004-2008 was not as high-quality and clean as New York American Water would have me believe.
There were 16 contaminants in our water. The National contaminants average is 4.
And get this one: All 16 contaminants exceeded the health limit.
And the dreaded Lead was one of those contaminants.
Now if these contaminants exceeded the legal limit, they must be unhealthy, correct?
Manganese: Exposure to high concentrations of manganese over the course of years has been associated with toxicity to the nervous system, producing a syndrome that resembles Parkinsonism. In addition, young children appear to absorb more manganese than older age groups but excrete less. This adds up to a greater potential for exposure in the very young. Since manganese's effects on the developing nervous system have not been adequately studied, it is especially prudent for pregnant women and young children to have drinking water that is below the manganese AL. You may suspect that manganese is in your water if the water is discolored (brownish-red), causes staining of plumbing fixtures (faucets, sinks) or clothing, or has an off-taste or odor. If this is the case, you should have your water tested by a state-certified laboratory for manganese. When you get the results, you should contact your local health department to help you interpret the results. There are no enforceable federal drinking water standards for manganese. The CT Department of Public Health recently set a drinking water Action Level (AL) for manganese of 0.5 mg/l to ensure protection against manganese toxicity. This AL is consistent with the World Health Organization guidance level for manganese in drinking water.
Aluminum: At high concentrations there is evidence linking aluminum to effects on the nervous system, with possible connections to several diseases, such as Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, and Lou Gehrig's disease. The American Water Works Association recommends that concentrations of aluminum in drinking water should not exceed 0.05 parts per million (0.05 ppm or mg/L). The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency recommends that the level not exceed 0.2 ppm.
Okay, so I'm no scientist, but according to the test data from 2004-2008, Manganese exceeded the legal limit by 50 ppb, whatever that means. And Aluminum exceeded the legal limit by 200 ppb. Can someone who knows the difference between ppm, ppb, and mg/l help me out here?
There were also 13 additional contaminants found in the water, but none of them exceeded the legal or health limits. I won't bore you with the gory details.
So as far as I can tell, the above information is what's lurking about in our Nassau County, tap water.
As if this news wasn't bad enough, I received a 2016 Spring Flushing pamphlet in the mail from New York American Water this week.
It seems they will be flushing North Woodmere (my hamlet) Monday-Friday, 8am-4pm from April 11 through April 21.
According to the New York American Water pamphlet, flushing their system helps to clean out any buildup of mineral deposits and sediment inside their pipes. They went on to say that discolored water may occur because the sediment in the water mains gets stirred up. They assured in the pamphlet that the discolored water is not harmful and we should simply let our water run until it is clear.
After writing this blog post, I am beyond pessimistic about anything I am told about my water.
And when New York American Water flushes their pipes for TEN days I have to wonder what corrosion and other dangerous materials are being dislodged from their systems and flowing into mine.
Sorry New York American Water, but I am not reassured.
1) Please tell me how New York American Water scores 100?
Compiling national tap water information and providing full access to the public should be a requirement for the EPA. More than a decade ago, the Safe Drinking Water Act Amendments of 1996 included such a requirement, but it still has not done so.
The federal government has a responsibility to do a national assessment of drinking water quality. It should establish new safety standards, set priorities for pollution prevention projects, and tell consumers about the full range of pollutants in our water.
The policy gaps that hamper source water protection and enforcement of drinking water quality need to be remedied with innovative legislation and regulatory leadership by the EPA in order to protect public health, especially the health of the developing fetus and child.
All Americans deserve access to clean and wholesome drinking water. It is essential to dedicate more funding for water infrastructure and source water protection programs and to make it a national priority to safeguard public health. So long as unregulated contaminants remain unregulated and unmonitored the safety and reliability of tap water will remain at risk.


Kapil Sharma has been out of the scene for some time now, but his recent appearances on Kaun Banega Crorepati and Indian Idol have left many popular shows in his wake.
Kapil Sharma might have been out of the scene for quite some time, but once his re-entry on Amitabh Bachchan's 'Kaun Banega Crorepati', left many majorly popular shows behind. Salman Khan's Bigg Boss 12, on the other hand, was somewhere between the 15–20rank over the last few weeks.
The reality show has finally been ousted out from the top-20 list owing to its low entertainment value this year.
Surbhi Jyoti starrer–Naagin–has once again secured the first spot on the charts as it has over the past few months. Followed by 'Kundali Bhagya' and 'Indian Idol' in second and third place respectively. Indian Idol, which saw itself placed in the top 5 for the first time this year, found its lucky charm–Kapil Sharma this week.
Kapil was invited as the guest judge in the past week's show where his bachelor party was also celebrated. This led to a massive leap in Indian Idol's TRP.
Kumkum Bhagya, Kulfi Kumar Bajewala and Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai secured fourth, fifth, and sixth spots respectively. Amitabh Bachchan's "Kuan Banega Crorepati" finale which again saw Kapil Sharma as a guest contestant, jumped massively and secured the seventh spot. Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashma, Radha Krishna, Guddan Tumse Na Ho Payega and Tujhse Hai Raabta bagged the eighth, ninth, tenth, and eleventh spots respectively.
At 12 was Kasautii Zindagii Kay and the 13 spot to Shakti–Astitva Ek Ahsaas Ki. Manmohini, Ishq Subhan Allah, Nazar and Dance Plus were placed 14, 15, 16, and 17, respectively. Nimki Mukhiya is at 18, followed by Ishqbaaz at 19, and Ishq Mein Marjawaan was placed at 20.
With the season finale just around the corner, it is surprising to see Bigg Boss 12 nowhere in the top 20.

Christian Hoehner, Data Coalition
In one of its last actions before adjourning last month, the 115th Congress passed the "Foundations of Evidence-Based Policymaking Act of 2018." The President is expected to sign the legislation into law in the next week or so. This new law implements about half of the recommendations made by the Commission on Evidence-Based Policymaking in September 2017. Among other things, the new law requires agencies to designate Evaluation Officers and Chief Data Officers, and publish their data sets in machine-readable form.
This panel session will discuss the provisions in the new law, and the next steps and potential challenges in implementing these new requirements.

Surmodics reaps $10m from Abbott on SurVeil balloon milestone
August 28, 2019 By Sean Whooley
Surmodics (NSDQ:SRDX) said today that it's due for a $10 million milestone payment from Abbott (NYSE:ABT) after closing enrollment for the Transcend pivotal trial of its SurVeil drug-coated balloon for treating peripheral artery disease.
Abbott in February 2018 paid $25 million up front for the global commercialization rights to the SurVeil device, which uses a proprietary paclitaxel-excipient formulation that's designed to provide a more durable and uniform coating. The deal put another $67 million in milestones on the table, the first of which was triggered by the Transcend enrollment closure.
Eden Prairie, Minn.-based Surmodics said the 446-patient Transcend trial is designed to compare the SurVeil DCB with the In,Pact Admiral DCB made by Medtronic (NYSE:MDT) out to five years. The estimated primary completion date is April 2020, with a study completion date of April 2024.
"Completing enrollment in the Transcend trial marks an important milestone and brings us one step closer to bringing this next-generation treatment to PAD patients," president & CEO Gary Maharaj said in prepared remarks. "I would like to thank our principal investigators – Dr. Kenneth Rosenfield, Professor Marianne Brodmann and Dr. William Gray – our trial advisor, Dr. Peter Schneider, and the entire steering committee for their leadership and guidance, all our investigators, support teams and, importantly, the patients we enrolled. Without their participation, we wouldn't be here today."
"Transcend is a rigorous level-one, randomized controlled trial that comes at a very important time for the vascular and interventional community," added Rosenfield, of Boston's Mass. General Hospital. "By providing a head-to-head comparison with today's market leading DCB, this trial will provide data regarding the relative performance of the SurVeil DCB, which represents a new generation of DCB. Beyond the device itself, the new trial design will ultimately provide insight into clinically important questions regarding long-term results. There is great promise that this third-generation DCB will further improve upon current outcomes for this technology and provide additional benefit for clinicians and the patients that they treat."
Surmodics said it plans to recognize $5 million of the Abbott milestone during its fiscal fourth quarter, which prompted it to raise its outlook on the rest of the year. The company said it now expects to post adjusted earnings per share of 69¢ to 77¢, up from 41¢ to 49¢ previously, on sales of $97.0 million to $99.0 million, compared with prior guidance for $92.0 to $94.0 million.
Shares of SRDX were up 4.1% to $44.54 apiece today early-morning trading.
Earlier this month, the FDA said it wanted more long-term safety and effectiveness studies to be done on paclitaxel-eluting stents and balloons after a December 2018 analysis from the Journal of the American Heart Assn. suggested that PAD patients treated with such devices could be at a higher risk for late death.

We got a lot of feedback last month on our post about the alpha launch of onetimesecret.com ( https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3207489 ). We were blown away by the amount of interest so we spent more time working on it and talking to more people. We just upgraded the site to beta which includes new features and a lot of improvements.
So thank you and let me know what we can do better!
What do you do about database back ups? Do you not back up those tables or do you wipe out the backups after a couple of days?
Ya, that's a great question. We've thought a lot about backups. We delete secrets immediately after they're viewed which presents an interesting problem with regards to keeping backups.
We're probably going to take a route similar to Wikipedia, where we don't intend to be the primary repository of information. During the beta, we'll keep backups for a limited time (the past few hours) but that's it. In other words, we'd rather lose an hour of two of data than expose secrets to 3rd parties. We'll consider other options when we fully launch.
Note: this only applies to secrets data. Customer and related data is backed up as you'd expect.
Depending on what database you use you can do partial replication (only tables that aren't secrets) to a slave and then backup the slave. We use MySQL and that is possible. Also if you combine that with a high rotation rate on your binlogs (again mysql) and wipe out the older logs you can effectively have a slave with all of the "permanent" data and then only two hours of binlogs of everything. So in case of disaster you copy the slave back and then replay the binlogs you kept (a couple hours) for secrets and you are back where you started. But since you never replicated the secrets or kept more than 2 hours of binlogs you have no way of recovering the secrets outside of that window.
Ive used these type of encrypted messages before but with little success or the glitches are many. Ive begun using One-Time secret and it works first try with no issues. Glad to see someone doing it right.
I actually used this other other day to transmit a root password for a server. Not sure how often this happens but contrary to my own belief there appears to be a market for this sort of thing.
We totally thought the usecases were going to be pretty limited but as it's turned out we've been getting a lot of great feedback from outside of the tech community too.
I would hope you wouldn't know this from the service itself, but do you know what use cases people are using it for based on feedback? I suspect there may be something its being used for I had not considered and might actually use.
For tech people, we've had the most questions regarding our API (password resets, one-time pads, custom encryption) and also the ability to have custom installs that are separate from the multi-tenant instance (e.g. we now have a paid plan for agencies that does this).
For non-tech people, we've got a lot of feedback along the lines of whistle-blowing, "if only Anthony Weiner had known about this", etc.
Edit: and yes, just to be clear, we do not look at the secrets that we keep. We encrypt all secrets before they're stored. If you include a passphrase, we use that as part of the encryption key and we since don't store that passphrase we have no way to decrypt the secret. It's technically possible for us to decrypt passphrase-lee secrets but we'd have to go out of our way to do it.
Didn't Peter F Hamilton write about a future with "one time email addresses"? I like the idea of this, but I want to see it able to handle photos, video, and audio.
i was thinking along the same lines with the picture, audio etc. the only downside is if you send a picture to someone and want it destroyed right after there is nothing stopping the other end to save the picture locally on their computer.
How does one sign up for the HN plan? I simply see the option to sign up for a personal plan; will this expire?
I had already created a free beta account, any way to switch it over? There doesn't appear to be any way to delete my account and create a new one.
Sent you an email. Let me know if you need anything else.
I don't see much use for this outside the send-a-password use-case. For that it seems like one of those things that might be convenient if I need to send a password/username to a buddy but for anything at all official I don't think you will get users. Most places don't want people going out to 3rd party sites for sensitive data.
I agree that 3rd party services can be less than ideal, and sometimes really undesirable for some contexts. The reality though, is that people need to communicate these things, whether they be passwords, or tidbits of info that they don't really want to persists. The current way that they do it is via IM or email, which now get logged, stored, indexed, etc. by the client software or middle-man service providers. While we don't expect or recommend that companies put ultra sensitive data into our system (at least, not without strong encryption), we feel it does fill the more common need. We're pleasantly surprised at how many other people agree too.
it should reply to json requests with immediate secrete 'release' w/o the extra button clicking and in a simple json format. This will allow usage from bots etc.
Our API for authenticated users will support this.
