A 3rd 🧵(and probably final) on the #Dmitrievsky #chemicalplant explosion and fire. I spoke with two former team members who have worked at plants like this in the US, and was introduced to a new friend who did a site visit/QC/Process Inspection at this plant in 2012.
All three are not twitter people. All three work in the industry. One at F100 firm, the others at smaller chem-firms. All have read my summary and agree it is fair. They also, like me, are sort of surprised at the level of interest here on this subject. Nice for folks to care.
First - this is very large facility and looking at @Maxar images together we agree it is badly damaged, but not destroyed. The shipment, storage and blending facilities seem intact, but the fire has clearly destroyed one of - perhaps the - most important part of the plant.

It's #GoodFriday, commemorating the #crucifixion of #Jesus which, according Christian tradition, took place in 1st ct. AD Judea (then a #Roman province).

While there are historic sources about this punishment method, archaeological evidence is scarce.

Some #EasterArchaeology:
(Content warning: Images of human remains and some possibly rather explicit details of death and torture.)
#Crucifixion as punishment is predating Roman times and goes back as far as to the Phoenicians, Assyrians, and Persians.

In ancient Rome it was mostly imposed on slaves or exercised as political punishment e.g. for insurrectionist - but usually not against Roman citizens.

Diabetes can be dangerous to your feet🦶

Even a small cut can have serious consequences.

It can affect blood flow to the lower limbs, affecting healing and making prone to infection.

It can affect nerves leading to reduced sensation including pain. #Diabetes #Footcare (2/n)
If you have diabetes & develop a blister or cut or a sore, it could lead to a non healing wound that could progress & some cases requiring surgeries & even amputation. We see many cases in late stages, hence requires intervention. Many are PREVENTABLE. #Diabetes #Footcare (3/n)

#WHO_ARE_YOU?

During one of his travels, #Kalidasa felt very thirsty and looked around for water.

He saw a woman drawing water from a well.
He went up to her and asked her for water.

She agreed to give him water, but asked him, “Who are you? Introduce yourself.”
Now Kalidasa thought that an ordinary village woman was not worthy of knowing who Kalidasa was.

So he said, “I am a traveller.”

But his lady replied, “In this world there are only #2_travellers the Sun and the Moon. Both Rise and Set every day and keep travelling perpetually.
Then Kalidasa said, “Alright then, I am a guest.”

The lady promptly replied, “In this world there are only #2_guests#Youth and #Wealth … both are temporary and hence can only be called as guests.”
