  • Relevant Material: "In Ontario, unkempt lawns can be a haven for various snakes, including harmless garter snakes and the venomous Massasauga rattlesnake. While most snakes are non-venomous and pose no threat, the Massasauga is Ontario's only venomous snake and prefers to avoid humans, only biting in self-defense. Other potentially dangerous animals, like raccoons and skunks, might also be attracted to overgrown areas. 
    Snakes in Ontario:
    • Garter snakes:
      These are the most commonly encountered snakes in Ontario, often found in gardens and grassy areas. They are non-venomous and pose no threat to humans, though they may release a foul-smelling fluid when disturbed. 
    • Massasauga rattlesnake:
      The Massasauga is Ontario's only venomous snake. It is a stout-bodied rattlesnake, typically 50-70 centimeters long. It is found in specific areas like Georgian Bay and Bruce Peninsula. It is a reclusive snake that prefers to avoid humans and bites only in self-defense. 
    • Other snakes:
      Eastern fox snakes, Butler's Gartersnakes, and Lake Erie watersnakes are other snakes found in Ontario, all of which are non-venomous. 
    What to do:
    • If you see a snake: Observe it from a safe distance. If it's a Massasauga, stay calm and give it space to move away. 
    • Avoid: Do not approach, handle, or harass any snake. 
    • Keep pets on a leash: This is important, especially in areas where Massasaugas are present. 
    • Rattlesnake safety: If bitten by a rattlesnake, seek immediate medical attention. 
    Other potentially dangerous animals:
    • Raccoons and skunks:
      These animals are attracted to overgrown areas as they provide food and shelter. They can be dangerous if they feel threatened or if they are carrying diseases.
    • Black widow spiders:
      While not as common as snakes, black widow spiders can be found in Ontario and their bite can be dangerous. " (Google)

Programming Commercial Glass Sliding Doors

Most retail stores have some form of automatic doors, whether they are sliding doors, revolving doors, swinging doors, or folding doors. Most people who pass through automatic doors don't think about the fact that they can be struck by the door or trapped between the door and door frame. We expect them to simply open for us and close behind us. But often, that is not the case. When an automatic door hits you, you don’t expect it. It can throw...

  ******** " Question Is cycling associated with risk of all-cause and cardiovascular disease mortality among persons with diabetes? Findings In this cohort study of 7459 persons with diabetes, cycling was associated with at least a 24% lower all-cause mortality rate when compared with noncyclists, independent of other physical activity and putative confounders. Taking up cycling over a 5-year period was associated with at least a 35% lower risk of all-cause mortality when compared with consistent noncyclists. Meaning Cycling could be encouraged as an activity for persons with diabetes to lower the risk of premature mortality.. "  (Larsen et al., n.d.) **** Relevant Insurance Coverage: a.

Blood Pressure Monitor

Image
**** Relevant Background: “ Arterial blood pressure  is most commonly measured via a  sphygmomanometer , which historically used the height of a column of mercury to reflect the circulating pressure. [1] Blood pressure values are generally reported in  millimetres of mercury  (mmHg), though  aneroid  and electronic devices do not contain  mercury .… For each heartbeat, blood pressure varies between   systolic   and   diastolic   pressures. Systolic pressure is peak pressure in the arteries, which occurs near the end of the   cardiac cycle   when the   ventricles   are contracting. Diastolic pressure is minimum pressure in the arteries, which occurs near the beginning of the cardiac cycle when the ventricles are filled with blood. An example of normal measured values for a resting, healthy adult human is 120 mmHg   systolic   and 80 mmHg   diastolic   (written as 120/80 mmHg, and...
