Flushing the toilet allows bacteria to fly into the sky, doctors point out 3 major risks of using public toilets
After using the toilet, remember to close the toilet lid when flushing. Studies have shown that when the toilet flushes, an instantaneous cyclone is generated, allowing germs and microorganisms to fly in the air and form aerosol transmission, which can survive in the air for at least one and a half hours, and even contaminate the toilet paper on the side, increasing the risk of infection.
The chest and critical care physician Huang Xuan pointed out that aerosol transmission is one of the methods of spreading the new crown virus. https://www.shineful.com.tw/ma62.htm,The virus can survive in the air for 3 hours and up to 24 hours in paper, which greatly increases the risk of infection in public toilets.
According to foreign media reports, the toilet flushing cyclone will spray feces, germs or microorganisms up to 4.5 meters away and fall on toilet paper, doorknobs and other surrounding objects. In a public toilet in a medical institution, if it is squatting or does not use a toilet lid, the toilet space may be filled with diarrheal bacteria.

Thought the toilet was broken! Australian woman opened the water tank and saw four long snakes
A woman in Queensland, Australia found that she could not flush after going to the toilet a few days ago. She thought that the toilet was broken and opened the water tank.https://www.shineful.com.tw/ma61.htm, There were four long snakes in the water tank and they were lying peacefully.

Before calling for help from a friend, Pearson photographed the horrible scene. She thought the snakes had penetrated through the cracked floor of the house. With the help of friends, these snakes were released into nearby sugarcane fields.
Pearson then shared the matter on Facebook and got many responses. A friend left a message saying, "I might burn the house," and others said, "Blow up the toilet."

A female netizen found two small mice in the toilet in the company toilet yesterday (27), but her colleague was not there, and she couldn’t find someone to help with it. She didn’t know what to do, and she wondered whether she should save them or not. https://www.shineful.com.tw/ma60.htm,Just press flush to flush them away? She took the photo PO and went to PTT to ask for help. "Should there be a mouse in the toilet, should we flush it?" Most people said that the mouse will bite things with germs. It is better to flush it.
The original PO said that his stomach hurts when he went to work yesterday. When he rushed to the toilet to be liberated, he opened the toilet lid and found two small mice inside. One of them seemed to be dead and the other was still alive. When he saw the original PO He raised his head and screamed, as if he hoped to save his life. She said that her colleagues were all out at the time, and there was no one who could study together how to solve it. She didn't expect that the colleagues would want to go to the toilet when they came back, but they didn't know what to do.
The original PO said that the surviving little mouse looked more and more cute, but because the toilet water was dirty, she didn't dare to reach out and grab it, but she couldn't bear to wash it away, so she had to go to the PO article for help.

New hope for toilet water saving
To be honest, Taiwanese do not save much water, and the amount of domestic water consumption is increasing every year. According to the statistics of the International Water Association (IWA), in 2016, the domestic water consumption of Taiwanese cities ranked 8th (Taipei City) and 14th (Kaohsiung City) among the major cities in the world, especially Taipei, which consumes 326 liters per person per day. The city is more than twice that of Busan, which is also an Asian city.
In many European cities, the average water consumption is only slightly more than 100 liters per person per day.https://www.shineful.com.tw/ma58.htm, In many water-scarce areas, the daily water consumption per person is less than 20 liters. So why don't Taiwanese save water? Many experts have pointed the finger at Taiwan's water tariffs.
The Taiwan Water Company announced that the minimum per kilowatt hour (per 1,000 liters) is 7.35 yuan, which means that the current average monthly water fee is only about 70 yuan per person. According to the IWA survey, Taiwan’s water tariff in 2014 ranked 5th from the bottom among 30 countries. With such cheap water charges, it is no wonder that the water company has to shout "no money" in the face of pipeline renewal and water purification construction.

Li Meizhen raises sea water to flush the toilet
Kuomintang Kaohsiung mayor by-election candidate Li Meizhen published a new policy on Facebook on the evening of the 7th, saying that after being elected mayor, he will discuss allowing citizens to flush toilets with seawater to solve the problem of "drinking separation"; yesterday (8) morning When the media questioned the overall plan, he kept skipping and responding to "discussed with experts,https://www.shineful.com.tw/ma57.htm, it is a long-term plan" and "no longer let Kaohsiung people carry water," but did not give a specific plan, causing controversy.
In response, Li Yuzhen, director of the organization department of the Taiwan Foundation Progressive Party, responded in a post on Facebook that the rough calculation of the cost of the pipeline alone would cost 329.7 billion yuan, plus the overall funding for the new pressurization station and distribution pool at least 400 billion yuan. Wei Jianshe".
On Facebook, Li Yuzhen analyzed the feasibility of flushing the toilet with sea water with the topic "The pipeline budget that Meizhen can't answer, Yuzhen tells you."
She said that the seawater system must be built separately from the tap water freshwater system currently in use. This is not Li Meizhen’s first creation. In fact, in Hong Kong, where there is a serious shortage of fresh water and a high population density, sea water is used to flush toilets in some areas close to the sea. However, the seawater is filled with chloride ions. It is very common to use seawater in pipelines. Crevice corrosion and pitting corrosion are very common. However, "additional water quality treatment facilities, transportation operations and maintenance costs are very expensive." "The total length of the Kaohsiung Taiwan Water Company's water pipeline is 7,428 kilometers, and 101 kilometers will be replaced from 2014 to 2015, and the cost is about 956 million yuan. Simple estimation, if the pipeline of the same length is simply constructed, the cost is about 70.3 billion yuan." Li Yuzhen explained that the cost of water pipes alone is prohibitively high.
She went on to explain, "The trouble is that each household has to take over to the home and install it on the toilet tank, including survey, design, pressure test costs, water connection points, water meter sets, water connection fees, and pipelines during actual installation. The cost of labor and materials is nearly 10,000 yuan within 4 meters. Take Kaohsiung City as an example. Kaohsiung City is divided into 17,395 statistical areas, of which 4,959 water supply areas have a penetration rate of 100%. Each household is calculated based on the basic labor cost of 20mm PVC pipes (7920), while each household in a sparsely populated area is calculated based on the Tai Water Company's assessment of the untaken water supply fee (600,000), excluding the road repair costs, and the total Kaohsiung 1.13 million households The cost of sea water pipeline piping is about 259.4 billion yuan. That is, the pipeline cost alone is 329.7 billion yuan."
Li Yuzhen also emphasized that if seawater is introduced into the city, a new pressurization station and a distribution pool must be set up, and because the seawater is at the lowest point in the city, the pressurization station requires more tap water than the tap water sent from high to bottom. According to project unit price statistics, a height difference of about 45 meters requires a period of compression, and the cost of each compression facility is about 2.7 million yuan, and the road restoration costs during the excavation process are not included. It is safer to prepare 400 billion yuan.
Li Yuzhen finally said: "After spending 2.7 trillion kinds of sugarcane, Kaohsiung spent another 400 billion on flushing the toilet. The debt has exceeded 3.100 billion, which is more than 10 times the price of Han Yu's rant." Billion is not a dream."

Who knows your health better than the toilet? Stanford University launches a new "smart toilet"
The new opponent of the toilet

Installation art uses fake toilets and telephone poles to subvert imagination
Installation artist Liao Jianzhong launched a solo exhibition "Site" at Yuxiu Art Museum. Works such as toilets, fallen telephone poles and cracked pillars look real, but are actually fake, subverting the audience's imagination of art; he said If you don’t think it’s art, just treat it as illusion!
Liao Jianzhong graduated from the National Taipei University of the Arts. He used "surface engineering method" and "pretend study" to create imaginary things. https://www.shineful.com.tw/ma55.htm,Jacks, excavators and other near-physical works showed the color of metal corrosion and traces of electric welding. Dust and mud are still attached; the cracked beams and columns reveal steel bars and loose concrete, which look like real things and move directly to the site. In fact, they are all made of wood, plastic and pulp!
　 Liao Jianzhong said that he likes to do it by hand. He once made a heavy-duty locomotive that he could not afford. The appearance was realistic. Although he could not ride on the road, he was also very happy to have big toys! His works look like "ready-made objects", but they are fake and real. I hope that the work simply presents the way it can be "said". The cracked beams and pillars make people feel crisis, and the huge machinery shows power. Everyone will see it. I have my own feelings and imaginations, so I don’t need to emphasize whether it’s art or not.
Huang Xiang, director of Yuxiu Art Museum, said that everyone’s impression of art museums and art is beautiful, elegant and classic, but the works on display this time challenge the audience’s imagination of a stable space. Do you think the building will fall down, and then think about what art is?
　Yu Embroidery Art Museum is committed to becoming a platform for the exchange and exhibition of contemporary realistic art between the world and Taiwan. In conjunction with this exhibition, 17 works in the collection will be launched on the 3rd floor of the art museum. The media include oil paint,
Charcoal and pencil sketches, 3D raster images, ceramic art and composite media, etc., in addition to presenting 6 paintings by former curator Li Zuxin at one time, it also includes works by artists from Japan, Thailand, Britain, Norway, Italy and other places; Until January 10, 2021.

NASA will test a new scented toilet on the space station, valued at $23 million
NASA recently announced that astronauts will test a new type of "scented toilet" worth $23 million on the International Space Station. If all goes well, this toilet will be used for future missions to return to the moon and land on Mars.
According to reports, this toilet was originally scheduled to be launched by Antares rockets from Wallers Island, Virginia on the morning of October 2,https://www.shineful.com.tw/ma54.htm, but just minutes before the launch, Northrop Grumman’s " The "Cygnus" cargo spacecraft encountered technical problems and the launch was temporarily stopped.

The secret in the toilet: Is it a water-saving toilet or a "leaky toilet"
Many people believe that water-saving toilets can save water, are more economical and environmentally friendly. Whoever thinks, this device may waste a lot of precious water resources.
Experts estimate that about 400 million liters of water are leaked from toilets in the UK every day, many of which are wasted by water-saving toilets.
A water company said that water-saving toilets not only do not save water, but also cause water leakage due to design flaws. https://www.shineful.com.tw/ma53.htm,In addition, there are flush buttons that can cause confusion, which ultimately wastes more water.
Water-saving toilets are designed with large and small flush switches, and usually use 4 liters and 6 liters of water respectively.
