Companies everywhere are hopping on the bandwagon to eliminate plastic straws, as plastic becomes harder and harder to recycle.An Oregon man, who started his glass straw business over a decade ago, is finally seeing his business take off.“We’re still doing the same thing we’ve been doing for over 12 years,” says Craig Graffius.But when Graffius started making straws out of glass to cut down on plastic, he was on to something.“A sustainable product is so much better than a throw away product,” says Graffius. “By far.”And this June, it seems a lot more people agreed with him.“500% percent, 600 percent growth overnight,” Graffius says.Suddenly, Graffius found he couldn’t keep up with the demand. He went from producing 2,000 eco-glass straws a week to a couple thousand a day.The push to eliminate plastic straws has caught on so fast, Graffius had to hire a business partner to keep up with inquiries from around the world.As for the copycat companies that he knows are popping up, he sees it as a good thing because they’re all working toward the same end goal.“The more education we can do as a team, the better for us,” Graffius says. 1157

CINCINNATI -- When police were sent to Seven Hills School on Tuesday afternoon, they were told a female caller was stuck in a van.The GPS coordinates on that call were within feet of where Kyle Plush, a 16-year-old male student, would be found dead hours later.Cincinnati Police Chief Eliot Isaac hasn't yet talked publicly about what happened that day. The police department, which touts itself as a model for transparency, has been quiet about Plush's death. They're planning to hold a news conference at 3 p.m. Thursday.Nearly two days after he suffocated, numerous questions remain about what went wrong and why a teenage boy is dead even as he pleaded with a 911 operator to send help.What we know, and don't knowPlush called 911 at about 3:16 p.m. Tuesday. He knew he was in trouble but struggled to communicate with the operator. Over the course of a three-minute call in which he gasped, cried repeatedly for help, he relayed that he was trapped inside his car in the parking lot of Seven Hills School.Through Plush's cries for help, the 911 operator indicated the caller was female.TIMELINE: What happened the day Kyle Plush died?A computer-aided dispatch report contained latitude-longitude coordinates on that call. Notes in that report indicated the call may have come from the "thrift store parking lot across the street." Seven Hills has a resale store across Red Bank Road from the school's Hillsdale campus. 1441

CORONADO, Calif. (KGTV) - A Navy shooting range in Coronado is at the center of a legal dispute over possible unsafe lead exposure. Team 10 investigative reporter Jennifer Kastner uncovered the history of reports of serious lead problems.10News spent more than five weeks continuously calling and emailing the Navy, asking what happened. Ultimately, the Navy responded, in part, that it would not go into any detail.Toxic lead exposure is a serious threat at shooting ranges. The gun smoke releases the metal into the air.Across the United States, federal agents have done hundreds of inspections for lead violations.Just south of the Hotel del Coronado, along the Silver Strand, sits the heavily guarded Naval Amphibious Base. 10News was unable to get video of the shooting range in question because we weren’t granted access on-base, but we can show you the federal reports that detail a history of concern. Per inspection paperwork, the indoor shooting range address is 3632 Guadalcanal Road.Across the country, a separate range that's not affiliated with the Navy had hired Don Haines as its safety officer. He says he'd sometimes be at the range seven days a week and for hours at time.“My friends noticed some changes in me, complaining about being tired all the time. [There was] some irritability and some difficulty understanding some things when we were having discussions,” he says.Doctors told him he'd been poisoned by lead.Toxic levels of the metal can cause serious problems like brain damage, kidney disease, and even death.Dr. Gabriel Filippelli is the director of the Center for Urban Health at Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis. “Current lead contamination still has tremendous impacts to a bunch of different sectors,” he says.Filippelli explains that as people shoot guns, lead particles are left behind on the walls, counters, and floors. Sometimes the primer used as padding to eject the bullet is made of lead that bursts into the air. “You have to remember that the primer is exploding right by people's faces,” he adds.There are now questions about whether Haines' story could be similar to what may have happened to an employee at the shooting range in Coronado.A report from the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) shows that the range was issued a violation in 2014 that has to do with an employee being exposed to lead.Two other preliminary violations for possible lead exposure were also reported that year. Both were deemed "serious" but were deleted following an informal settlement agreement, which required the shooting range to make changes.Although the findings are from five years ago, the military is still dealing with them.In July, a spokesperson for Naval Special Warfare (NSW) sent 10News the following statement:“NSW's number one priority is the health, safety, and readiness of our people -- military and civilian. We take reports of safety issues seriously. In the end OSHA and the Navy agreed to an amended report to which we fully implemented the agreed upon amended requirements. I'm not going to get into the details you are asking due to on-going litigation with an individual who was involved in these matters. We are not facilitating interviews at this time because of that litigation.”OSHA is in charge of inspecting gun ranges and lead levels in 28 states. The Administration reports that people can still work their jobs when their blood lead level is 40 micrograms per deciliter (μg/dL).However, the National Institute of Health claims that no amount of lead in your blood is safe.When Haines was first hired, the range checked his blood and found it was 3 μg/dL. Just 8 months later, he says it jumped to 60 μg/dL.This spring, the government reported, in part, that OSHA is “exploring regulatory options to lower blood lead levels in affected workers”.It’s finally considering dropping the levels from 40 μg/dL to less than 10 μg/dLin adults. Businesses can protect you with a proper air filtration system, with air blowing away, toward the targets. Experts say you can protect yourself by wearing masks when shooting or working at a range, wearing gloves while firing or cleaning up and washing your shooting clothes separately from other clothing. They’re small steps to take to prevent the little-known threat that even Haines, a range safety officer, wasn't aware of. “They could go for years and they may not recognize the symptoms. Had I not had someone who was observant, I probably would not have attached it to the lead,” he adds. 4538

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Data released Monday show governors who led state responses to the coronavirus pandemic were among beneficiaries of the loan program created to help small businesses weather COVID-19's economic effects. The governors of at least seven states had ties to companies that received loans through the Small Business Administration's Paycheck Protection Program. 387

Citing a maritime law from the 1850s, the companies that operated a duck boat that sank during a fierce storm in July, killing 17 people, have filed paperwork asking a federal court to rule they have little or no liability for the incident.The companies said the legal maneuver, filed in Missouri, will consolidate the civil actions against them and they plan to mediate settlements with survivors and families of the victims.But one woman who survived the sinking as nine of her family members perished said the court filing finding her relatives "worthless is incredibly hurtful and insensitive."Ripley Entertainment, which operates Branson Duck Vehicles, says in its court complaint filed Monday that an 1851 law limits its liability because the amphibious vessel was properly maintained and prepared for the voyage and after the sinking it is a total loss. 868
