Carbon monoxide poisoning occurs when carbon monoxide builds up in your bloodstream. When too much carbon monoxide is in the air, your body replaces the oxygen in your red blood cells with carbon monoxide. This can lead to serious tissue damage, or even death.

Carbon monoxide is a colorless, odorless, tasteless gas produced by burning gasoline, wood, propane, charcoal or other fuel. Improperly ventilated appliances and engines, particularly in a tightly sealed or enclosed space like the inside of a car, may allow carbon monoxide to accumulate to dangerous levels.

Carbon monoxide poisoning can be particularly dangerous for people who are sleeping or intoxicated. People may have irreversible brain damage or even die before anyone realizes there's a problem.

Posted in: Is Christmas the most wonderful time of year for you? See in context

I'm a sun worshipper so this cold, windy and dark time of the year is pretty horrible. That said, I enjoy sending cards, and giving presents, and it's good to have a couple of weeks off work. Christmas karaoke is always a laugh too. And the cheery Christmas lights and displays. But give me a sunny beach anytime instead.

Care to share? And tell us, do you think it makes it okay if other nations do it too?

Many experts had a very simple answer back then and it it's still the only answer now, Do NOT LIVE By The Ocean, let nature take it's course and NO ONE will get hurt.

I recently purchased a fantastic ocean view apartment near Atami. It's on a mountainside over 120 metres above sea level. Hence zero tsunami risk. But only 200 metres from the beach i. e ten minutes walk to the beach. So, it's perfectly okay to live by the ocean...just don't live at sea level.

Microsoft should do this for the U.K too. Why? Well, currently customers can only purchase internet via virgin fibre optic cable or B.T, and other operators, still using the old copper B.T lines. There's money to be made in the U.K. Just provide a decent service.

Posted in: Prosecutors decide not to indict woman who set fire to hotel room in Tokyo See in context

By all means, if she wanted to die. But why by fire? The most horrible way to die? And why endanger the lives of all guests and staff in the four story hotel? And the fire could have spread to neighbouring buildings killing and injuring many more people including children and old people by the most horrible way to die : by fire? And finally, why wasn't she chatged? She is a grown adult of 31 wasn't she? She is not a teenager.

Maybe she just fell asleep after lighting a cigarette? Terrible mistakes happen. That's not arson.

So hilarious seeing what is happening to twitter. They weren't interested in removing the outright lies and defamtion posted about me on their site. That's despite my having proof of that. Twitter is a cauldron of gossip, slander and misinformation that profits from other people's misery. The sooner it goes bankrupt the better the world will be. Good ridance.

As an ex smoker that finally managed to quit the evil weed about 12 years ago, I can't stand the smell of tobacco smoke anymore. It makes me feel physically sick. Consequently, I don't spend any of my time or money anywhere that cigarette smoking is allowed. Japan should follow Europe and ban all indoor smoking in public spaces.

Modern Halloween is the worst thing to come out of the USA. I'll tolerate it. It's okay if people want to party. But please do it in the privacy of your own home, or hire a venue. Definitely don't expect any respect if you're traveling on public transport in full costume.

machidamichael. Put some links up if this happens on a daily basis. Which we all know it doesn't. And it's not a genius idea to start making citizen arrests in Japan. Just let the Japanese police do there job. Or, it will be you that gets arrested for obstruction of police.

So, raise interest rates to 2% to support the yen. Then, track U.S.A interest rates. Oh, and start generating your own electricity via wind, solar, H.E.P. pump storage, tidal, and even nuclear.

Given the abject failure of Japan's politicians to encourage investment in solar, wind, H.E.P, tidal, pump storage, battery, and geo thermal then nuclear is the next best option. But this time don't build your operating reactors on a tidal flood plain prone to tsunami, and don't put your back up generators in the flood prone basement.like you did last time.You muppets.

I contacted Twitter with proof from the Japanese prosecutor that what was written on their website was lies and defamation. They responded that apparently that isn't against their policies! So, they clearly have a problem with the truth, and are nothing but a cauldron of lies and gossip. The sooner they exit the market, the better we'll all be.
