toxic toys for Christmas?

Like every year at this time, bloom articles on toxic toys we give to caress, to breathe, to feed our little ones.

Already, from the aspect we can try to see where the problem is. Take the example of these two dogs that everyone knows:

left: Giacometti, found, not so easily elsewhere, at Sotheby's generally
and right: Jeff Koons, Venice right now.

We see immediately that the left is a bit angular, Metal suspect perhaps with lead solder and he looks sickly, which could harm the mental development of "small". The right one is more innocuous.

What do you think Doctor? The question the "Doctor" awaits!

"There is nothing in it for Conna it: the left is a reproduction on organic, super cool and resilient and very trendy, and the right one is plastic not specified on the leaflet, with a gas not hilarious. " (That bad start this!)

With chemistry, it is more difficult to navigate.
proceed in order of citations in 2010:

Phthalates : it is an essential component to soften some plastics very strong.
Other plastics are very numerous, pure or sometimes containing bisphenol A. All have advantages and disadvantages. Thus, some plastics are less toxic, but their production releases more greenhouse gas emissions.

Phthalates are considered as one of many endocrine modifiers . Are being discovered every day.

Newest to the front page of the news are paracetamol aspirin and ibuprofen, according to a survey among women and disturbing study in rats (One notes, it's interesting, but we're not animals .)

For aspirin, now supposedly toxic to fetal testis, allowed single pregnancies and quiet once deadly for child and sometimes the mother.

Heavy metals:

There are especially three metals: mercury, lead, cadmium, where one hand we could not highlight the positive role for biological activity, and secondly that may cause poisoning or serious illness.

These three metals have no reason to include it in toys. These pollutants and compounds fraudulent.

Lead can be found in the paintings but in Europe it is forbidden for almost 100 years.

Mercury is in some batteries, but also in our low-energy bulbs need therefore to bring to the merchant when they no longer work.

Cadmium is found in some batteries for our beloved phones, electronic toys that are more plastic.


Formaldehyde (ie formalin) is in the varnish of wooden toys but also that of our floating floors. It is carcinogenic.

Formamide

is a chemical compound from formaldehyde and ammonia. It will be banned in toys in Europe (Directive on the way)

is corrosive irritant in contact with skin, eyes, harmful by ingestion also appears teratogen is to say dangerous for fetuses. ; On combustion, it releases carbon monoxide, ammonia, and perhaps the cyanidrique acid (cyanide) The flash point (risk of fire) is 154 ° C. However, the temperature of a burning cigarette exceeds 500 °.

The carcinogenic nature does not seem fully prepared. Aside a study in rats indicating that bladder cancer may exist (to follow).

According to Belgian specialists, we unfortunately find this product in the composition of the foam puzzle mats that our toddlers are placed in the mouth. These chemicals can pass into the body over the skin contact, or inhalation, and children often play just layer on this type of toy. So vigilance

Do not burn your carpet puzzle, it can be dangerous. Do not smoke around.

Store them in the cellar waiting to learn more. All models are perhaps not relevant. There are however mostly imported from China.

The LEDs : can be toxic to the eyes. But the headlights of cars and more sun are too. We will not delete The sun is the source of our life, but the diodes are not necessary for children.


Besides this chemistry comes:
Allergy:
Here, we do not know where you walk because anyone can be allergic or intolerant to anything.
Perfumes are cited. But they do come in toys?


Easier: small objects that children can inhale especially the eyes of stuffed animals.

This Teddy is hostile but it seems the his eyes firmly fixed (though in the ink used for printing, carbon black, is not very environmentally friendly). Nothing is perfect

But the hostile environment is not limited to toys.

The house is dangerous

I mention in bulk:
The bottle too hot
The changing table,
The kitchen where you burn,
The room where we take coffee, which causes severe burns, and where there are peanuts!
The room cluttered with stuffed stuffed mites are coughing,
The bathroom slipping,
windows, stairs, doors,
The pool
The toolbox
Life .. .

"You can always go to the sawmill and manufacture toys themselves but some are allergenic wood, sawdust is not good for the lungs, it can get tetanus and tools are sometimes plastic. So ... "


To summarize:
Everything is complicated but fortunately technicians, a little maddening at times, monitor the planet.

This case reminds me of the "Expertise of the year 1978" where, thanks to a technique of high-performance gas chromatography, it was searched for carcinogens in the Whisky. We found in many whiskeys, especially Scotland!
was indeed a study on "American"!

Image: Tintin albums. "We walked on the moon" p.5 Casterman

The tobacco and alcohol are responsible for over 100,000 deaths per year, but it is reasonable to protect our children who may not be smoking and / or alcoholics later.

To end on an optimistic note:

"Everything is dangerous but it in the richest countries in toys toxic that life expectancy is the longest, so there is reason to hope! "
NB: We can see here at once the absurdity of some simplistic reasoning.


70 years and over 82 years and over 80-81 years 78-79 years 76-77 years 74 -75 years 72-73 years 70-71 years ; unavailable

under 70 65-69 years 60-64 years 55-59 years 50-54 years ; 45-49 years 40-44 years 35-39 years under 35

In practice :

Avoid Giacometti and Jeff Koons as they lack documents,

Wash lint,

Fan the other toys,

sure everything is solid and well attached (eyes buttons, etc. ...) before giving them to children.

Do not leave plastic bags.

Pandemonium ... For Laughs & Mister Kerviel

Our Presidents

De Gaulle (Charles)

General has had a difficult start, especially by difficulty in being heard in French: four Call for his terrible years and twelve years for his speech in Bayeux. He, however, has fully understood the demons of his people: a treatment, but not too long, decolonization, but not too fast, the shambles, no! The Gaullist still remains the favorite disguise of our policies.

Pompidou (Georges)

His prescience factors that had pushed the count to declare, in the midst of the war boom, that employment should be deemed an ongoing problem, definitely not treatable, but that should assist to mitigate the consequences.

At its last Council of Ministers, his face swollen by his treatment, he tells the assembly that he "suffers like a madman." The contrast between the significant responsibilities assumed and the tension constant excruciating pain that make you abandon post, deserves posthumous respect of a statesman.

Giscard d'Estaing (Valéry)

Here lies a contradiction d'Estaing presidency ;: modernist intentions, phrasing III ^e Republic, a physical ancien regime.

Mitterrand (Francis)

The man knew how to satisfy his political ambition to the depths, agreeing to a seven-bis assuming the contradictions of this presidential longevity. To withstand the daily battering, attempted scuttling of his system, the flurry of denunciations of his labyrinthine blackness past, he has successfully integrated the properties of the oilcloth. The agile mind, determined character, he waterproofed: flowing and splashing ...

Chirac (Jacques)

presidential Ostrich. Tucked in the sand Elysian, he has tolerated no insult, no questioning of his superb with gourds, its failures and its lexical gaps.

His most precious find institutional, after the dissolution of his parliamentary majority in 1997: the promulgation of the CPE ghost! Mitterrand déblatérait on The Coup Standing the historic leader of Free France, the first decade of the century will be flabby in the jolts of fat depressing.

Sarkozy (Nicolas)

Forty or sixty years later, that stand? this the current trajectory of Sarkozy? Some doodles insipid menu of Fouquet's? The abundance of media "short Sarko show" multiplying listings and explanations, to take initiatives and movements and misting minds?

paradox: the same ones who have striven for forty years, to desecrate the presidential office is courroucent today to have a head of state to differences refreshments. The Americans had their Bush policy for the unspeakable vulgarity condescending French who came to power that they knew without a shadow of the State Circus permanent. Always dissatisfied, always go after those who are responsible to govern this country, the people of France remains traditional tendency to burn his idols, even when they resemble him to the end of words.

Some Premiers

Debré (Michel)

Mitterrand when he assumed office as Minister of the Interior, had gathered enough evidence to behead the father of the NRT , future architect of the Constitution of the Fifth ^e Republic . So no small game. Debre, a whiff, whine came in the minister's office, begging him not to reveal the affair.

A few years later that Debre , the wind in their sails, decides to complete politically Mitterrand phase down. He loads his friend Pesquet bring the future president has the right idea of a false attack which could provide the media spotlight. "It would make the idea come to him" like in the movie wing or thigh of Zidi. The MP shall work approach and suggestion. The revelation of the fraud will not be long, obviously.

Fabius (Lawrence)

scandal around the National Centre of Blood Transfusion which would, in 1985, injected with blood contaminated with AIDS virus to hemophiliacs, while techniques exist for sterilize blood. The charges parade and Fabius saponified a max . Here he is claiming the right to dignity and defending her honor. The fetus of the political beliefs of cliches feeds sweetish and anger with little fists forward.

God Almighty , if you exist a little bit, let the Fafa never put her behind the throne Elysian. Fanfan old enough we will. (1991)

Rocard (Michel)

The pungent Rocard could not depart from the dungeon, head of the list bow chiassocialiste and pretending Elysian. His Little Big Bang just fart in her mouth, which should delight Fanfan Mité. flunked, Rocard leaves intellectualizations the purring Delors . (1994)

Cresson (Edith)

Mitterrand his four hours and Cresson still alive at last. (November 1991)

Beregovoy (Pierre)

When I heard the news of his suicide, I cooed with my sweet Kate in the Grand Hotel de Cabourg where we had decided to spend a long weekend. At night, discovering the beauty in car around, I kept deep in the throat a strange whiff of distaste for the media clique, who buried yesterday and now praises the late Prime Minister.

For man, sensitive to the core, I mulled the vague impression of a masterly mess. This little man, so harmless at first sight, probably hiding a loyalty that dipped beyond competence constantly being improved by its questioning daily, combining its survival within the meaning of honor. I remain deeply moved by this intimate tragedy.

Balladur (Island)

It did not resist the mouths of young restless. The Democratic can not do anything at the head of a soft diet. Unable to subdue the Vandals and thugs determined to destroy what is within their grasp, unable to impose its views on a youth in search of a future safe, the government will liquefied bubbled until the presidential elections, do not risk the great shots of latte in the foundation needed by our society. (1994)

Juppe (Alain)

He chose to launch sweeping reforms to clean up the accounts of the country, but his method to get these new efforts, proved disastrous and allows all to nearly strikers.

The government response could be solved with a simple alternative: to negotiate immediate or punish effectively. Doing the ostrich is the worst attitude. Play the rot by giving the impression of an accommodating firm is to risk the backlash of posturing.

Ultimately, Juppe will come to negotiate more or less deeply his plan, and the country has lost a few weeks, a few thousands of companies forced into bankruptcy and its credibility on the international scene . (December 10, 1995)

Jospin (Lionel)

Jospin The miracle that has transformed the power at the point of giving it a boil watchable without bulging eyes and puffiness disturbing, is spent with Big Media d'Arvor, gonads swollen state well to polish her pill and distribute tax cuts to the wind. Reluctant to criticize it, I can admit it. (2000)

Raffarin (Jean-Pierre)

Faced with inconsistent street brawlers, a plume of Raffarin. Spent with our journalistic institution, the unalterable Poivre d'Arvor, the Prime Minister communicated very clear, without excessive pathos, without technocratism daunting, but by presenting the proposed vital reforms in perspective: a pension reform over the ten- seven years, can be likened to a blow or dagger as bellow officials strikers. A claim only to safeguard their illegitimate privileges and make believe they are fighting for private sector employees to confirm life pachyderm gravity of the public system. The faculty of the public agrees with this dirty habit of rejecting any change in the name of a disparate group whose common core fantasy in misinterpretations of the intentions of the government. Tune-ups have been made, which did not soothe the social excited. (May 2003)

De Villepin (Dominique)

In The tragedy of President Franz-Olivier Giesbert, it seems most imbued with himself, and his speech off like most at odds with his demagogic official sandwich. Used language indicative of the character: everything back to the fact "to be or not ..." in the pants. The criterion of the gonads appears to be the alpha and omega of his critical sense. Mouth full of balls, he used his contacts in the wings, sure to be himself with the most impressive specimens ...

The disaster of the CPE, this pitiful retreat in the open field, revealed the texture and content of the testes of the Prime Minister just calibrated to play marbles. Out with the bad poet roubignolles!

Fillon (Francis)

Fillon, we and the other, stirred stay that monopolizes the traditional unpopularity of French Prime Minister. Rely on us at first neglect the second, there is so much to reform ... Courage, Fillon!

Some political figures

Cohn-Bendit & Marchais

Dany has preserved its reactivity. In Right Inventory : May 1968 he does not hesitate to bestow a "junk" late Georges Marchais who had criticized in a column published in Humanity footprint of anti-Semitism and filigree. (2008)

Delors (Jacques)

Jacques Philosophical technocratism that transmutes into everything he envisages. (June 1994)

De Villiers (Philippe)

Vendeen Dishevelled in Phrygian cap, which, decades ago, had shaken a suit to the gates of the National Assembly. Unkempt hair, round unshaven chin, he lived there his little revolutionary upsurge .

Holland (Francis)

"omni" he quips about the tenant of the Elysee. Holland jubilee of his discovery, forgetting for a moment that the ruins secrétarise as chief butcher stuffing socialist Used to nothing general of the party of fools running for ... 2012. (2007)

Le Pen (Jean-Marie)

After returning to Algeria by the imam of Venissieux who defended in Lyon Mag , religious legitimacy to beat a woman who cheats on her husband, a single political voice protests against this crime of opinion: Le Pen! The extreme right in sympathy with the Islamists, "that is puzzling about the notion of opportunism ... The bearded Bin Laden call for conferences, and Christian nationalist supporters: it looks like a merger of circumstance where the hypocrisy of the dominant relations. (2004)

Royal and Bayrou

The most nerve-wracking Royal was really on a roll, even if Coue's method still works perfectly. The combination of with Bayrou seems more natural as their strategy of conquest can be identified by the worship of a solitary walk with their militant supporters shoulder, and the exasperation of his closest comrades who eventually turn away from these policies egocentric erratic.

Let them closer so they devour each other. After The Princess and the president of declining vge who allows himself one last literary indulgence, we would get The Royal and the President ... Modem, plus a romance with rose water, but a pittance Salt water pudding ... (2009)
