EDUCACIÓN FORMAL Y NO FORMAL EN ESPAÑA POST CRISIS. FEDEA, 2015
EEUU No se está entendiendo por qué ganó Trump. V. Navarro.org
Este artículo critica el consenso generalizado de interpretar la realidad estadounidense a través de la figura de Trump, sin comprender que lo más importante no es tanto Trump, sino el hecho de que fuera elegido por casi la mitad de los votantes que votaron en las elecciones presidenciales de 2016.
El artículo señala la importancia de entender este hecho, pues sin ello es imposible entender por qué Trump ganó las elecciones, existiendo la posibilidad de que haya Trumps durante muchos años a no ser que se cambien las políticas que facilitaron el surgimiento de un enorme enfado y rechazo hacia el establishment político-mediático estadounidense. El artículo también es una crítica de otro hecho generalizado en España, que es el definir lo que ocurre en Estados Unidos como un caso de populismo.

Swimming pools contain pee
For a new study published in the journal Environmental Science & Technology Letters, researchers measured how much urine was in a sampling of swimming pools and hot tubs across Canada using the help of acesulfame potassium (Ace-K), an artificial sweetener found in many processed foods (which, as we know, many people consume on a regular basis). Measuring these sweeteners, which go through the body and don’t break down in the chlorinated water, allowed the team to estimate how much pee actually goes into pools.
(...) It’s not a joke. People who visit pools that smell highly chlorinated may be reassured, assuming that the chlorine content is so high that the pool must be clean. Not so! The strong odor of chlorine is a sign of chemical compounds that form when urine interacts with sweat, urine and bodily oils. So, the cleaner the pool smells, the more urine it likely contains.
First of all, chlorine itself is not good for you. It has been linked to eye irritation and gut bacteria imbalance. It is also a possible carcinogen. However, things get even worse when chlorine reacts to urine (as well as sweat and body oils). This interaction forms a variety of chemical compounds. Exposure to these compounds, especially in the long term, may lead to:

There are alternatives in some areas, such as pools treated with ozone or ionizers. If this isn’t an option in your area, be sure to shower before and after you swim, and wear swim goggles to protect your eyes if you’re diving underwater. Hazards lurking in your swimming pool

Newscientist. Article. Chronic pain and depression are linked by brain gene changes
People who have chronic pain are more likely to experience mood disorders, but it’s not clear how this happens. Now a study in mice has found that chronic pain can induce genetic changes in brain regions that are linked to depression and anxiety, a finding that may lead to new treatments for pain.

However, things get even worse when chlorine reacts to urine (as well as sweat and body oils). This interaction forms a variety of chemical compounds. Exposure to these compounds, especially in the long term, may lead to:
- Respiratory issues such as asthma
- Eye and throat irritation
- Weakened immune system
- Nervous system damage
- Cardiovascular damage
- A higher risk of certain cancers, such as bladder cáncer
If you love to swim and have no choice but to swim in a chlorinated pool, there are few things that you can do to lessen the effects of chlorine on your body.
If you have to swim in a chlorinated pool, swim outdoors. It is much safer due to the fact that the majority of the toxic gases are eliminated in the air.

- Swim in chlorinated pools on occasion only.
- Shower immediately before and after.
- Drink plenty of non-chlorinated, filtered water beforehand so that you are well hydrated.
- Consider wearing a mask and snorkel to protect your eyes – and if you feel like going the extra step for protection, put on a wet suit. If your hair is particularly sensitive to the chlorine, try a bathing cap. 5 reasons to stop swimming in chlorinated pools

A la banca de consumo le doy diez años de vida. Pero creo que las mayores implicaciones vendrán de las instituciones gubernamentales. En el momento en que se pueda autentificar que tienes el papeleo hecho, que cumples los requisitos de edad o de seguridad sin tener que pasar por una única autoridad, todos los procesos se abaratarán y acelerarán. Internet abrió un mundo de posibilidades.
