WHAT'S HAPPENING AT MERI Signed by nearly 150 scientists from 22 countries, the statement raises concerns about a major class of chemicals used as flame retardants in consumer products like televisions, computers, cell phones, upholstered furniture, mattresses, textiles, and automobiles. The authors, including MERI’s director, Dr. Susan Shaw, point to the growing body of evidence that brominated and chlorinated flame retardants are accumulating in humans and the environment, harming unborn children, affecting people’s hormones, and playing a role in causing cancer. Such flame retardants may not even improve overall fire safety, they point out. They call not just for the use of alternative chemicals, but also innovative changes in product design which could reduce the need for toxic flame retardants. The statement's signatories are all experts in the study of environmental contaminants. To read the statement in Environmental Health Perspectives , click here . For the full press release, click
SPECTRUM Biographies - Jacques Cousteau
Biography by Rachel Sahlman.
http://www.incwell.com/Biographies/Cousteau.html

Extractions: Jacques Cousteau Researcher: Rachel Sahlman Artist: Dick Strandberg Jacques-Yves was born in Saint-Andre-de-Dubzac, France, to Daniel and Elizabeth Cousteau on June 11, 1910. Cousteau always loved the water and in his early teens, he became interested in machines. At the age of 11, Cousteau built a model crane and at 13, he built a battery-operated car. Also in his early teens, Cousteau became fascinated with films. He saved his money and bought a home movie camera. In high school, Cousteau became bored with school and began to cause trouble. As a result, his parents sent him to a strict boarding school. Cousteau excelled in this new environment and upon graduation, he entered the Ecole Navale (Naval Academy) in Brest. In 1933, Cousteau joined the French Navy as a gunnery officer. It was during this time that he began his underwater explorations and began working on a breathing machine for longer dives. In 1937, Cousteau married Simone Melchoir, and they had two sons, Jean-Michel and Phillipe. Two years after their marriage, Cousteau fought for the French in World War II. He spent time as a spy and was awarded several medals. During the war, Cousteau still found time to continue his underwater work. In 1943, he and French engineer Emile Gagnan perfected the aqualung, which allowed a diver to stay underwater for several hours. Divers used the aqualung to located and remove enemy mines after World War II.
