"content": "\u003cp>What stands out upon entering Mai Dang's nail salon, located on a busy street in Berkeley, Calif., is what's missing — the stinging smell of polish, remover and other nail products. That wasn't always the case. For a decade, Dang suffered from the effects of the chemicals she used at work every day.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"When you do nails, workers get itchy skin and watery eyes,\" says Dang, 40. She also used to have frequent headaches, and one of her workers developed asthma. So when she heard about an opportunity to improve the safety at her salon, she signed up.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I work every day. I need the air to be pure, to be better for me. I have to take care of my health this way,\" she says, speaking in Vietnamese through an interpreter.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe src=\"https://www.npr.org/player/embed/509315426/509444361\" width=\"100%\" height=\"290\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" title=\"NPR embedded audio player\" class=\"iframe-class\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.asianhealthservices.org/\">Asian Health Services\u003c/a>, a community clinic in Oakland, started \u003ca href=\"http://www.cahealthynailsalons.org/\">The California Healthy Nail Salon Collaborative\u003c/a> after the clinic identified a pattern of illness among nail salon workers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Practically every worker was experiencing some kind of health issue. And we realized that this was an epidemic,\" says Julia Liou, planning and development director at the clinic and the co-founder of the collaborative.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nail salons are big business in the United States — \u003ca href=\"http://files.nailsmag.com/Feature-Articles-in-PDF/NABB2015-16stats.pdf\">approximately $8.5 billion \u003c/a> in revenue in 2015. Some of the chemicals used in salons \u003ca href=\"https://www.osha.gov/SLTC/nailsalons/chemicalhazards.html\">are known to cause\u003c/a> skin disorders and respiratory problems, and possibly even cancer, miscarriages and birth defects. Formaldehyde and toluene are just two of the risky ingredients in the nail polishes, solvents, glues and hardeners in constant use in salons; the Environmental Protection Agency \u003ca href=\"https://www.epa.gov/sites/production/files/2015-05/documents/nailsalonguide.pdf\">lists\u003c/a> at least 20 such worrisome chemicals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But, so far, there's been little government regulation to protect workers. Liou is trying to get salon owners to make changes voluntarily to improve worker safety.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We don't want to create a fear where it's like, 'Oh nail salons are so scary that people can't go to them,' \" explains Liou. \"But we want to create a space where both the owner and the customer can feel comfortable, and actually create a model where the return on investment ends up being worker health.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Salons that participate in the collaborative must make significant changes to their business, including buying less toxic nail polishes, thinners and removers. All workers are required to wear specific types of gloves and masks when using certain products. Owners are also required to purchase a portable mechanical ventilation unit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It sucks in the air when I do artificial nails so the workers don't have to breathe in the toxic chemicals anymore,\" explains Dang, as she turns on the machine with a remote control. More than 80 percent of salon workers in California are Vietnamese American, and more than half are of reproductive age, according to the collaborative.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_283568\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/stateofhealth/wp-content/uploads/sites/27/2017/01/salon-2_enl-216a76948fef4044ad8fe46c41f7a076bc2f2fcf-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"Mai Dang's Fashion Nails has been certified as a healthy salon since 2013.

In return, Dang got a certificate that she hangs in her window to let customers know she is part of the collaborative. Fashion Nails is also listed as \u003ca href=\"http://www.co.alameda.ca.us/aceh/healthynail/documents/RECOGNIZED-SALONS.pdf\">a healthier nail salon \u003c/a>on a county website.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The process, however, was not cheap. Dang says the products she now uses, while safer, cost about 30 percent more. Overall, she estimates that she spent about $3,000 on the upgrades. To pay for it, she raised her prices by $2 per service.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One of Dang's customers, Genell Johnson, says she's more than willing to pay extra for the service.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"You get what you pay for,\" Johnson says. \"That's what they always say, and it's very true.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A survey of customers by the collaborative found that 90 percent were willing to pay at least a dollar more for services they knew were healthier. Johnson says she's a regular at Fashion Nails but had no idea it was a healthy salon.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Now I'm going to spread the word,\" says Johnson. \"This will be the perfect place, knowing they're so health conscious.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For Dang, the investment in a healthier salon seems to be paying off. Visits to her salon have increased, and her business has become more profitable, she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But getting businesses to make changes voluntarily is a slow process. Out of more than 8,000 nail salons in California, only 120 have joined the collaborative so far.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think the ultimate root of the issue is that the chemicals are still in the products,\" says collaborative co-founder Liou. \"If we want to look at really how do we improve worker health, we also need the manufacturers to consider how they can they make safer products as well.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, the Healthy Nail Salon Collaborative is making progress. The EPA recently \u003ca href=\"https://www.epa.gov/newsreleases/us-epa-awards-120000-protect-health-bay-area-nail-salons\">gave the collaborative a grant\u003c/a> to help them offer microloans to salons wanting to upgrade.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In September, California \u003ca href=\"http://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=201520160AB2125\">passed legislation\u003c/a> to help expand the program across the state, by training cities and counties on how to certify healthy nail salons in their regions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Kaiser Health News is a national health policy news service.

That wasn't always the case. For a decade, Dang suffered from the effects of the chemicals she used at work every day.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"When you do nails, workers get itchy skin and watery eyes,\" says Dang, 40. She also used to have frequent headaches, and one of her workers developed asthma. So when she heard about an opportunity to improve the safety at her salon, she signed up.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I work every day. I need the air to be pure, to be better for me. I have to take care of my health this way,\" she says, speaking in Vietnamese through an interpreter.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe src=\"https://www.npr.org/player/embed/509315426/509444361\" width=\"100%\" height=\"290\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" title=\"NPR embedded audio player\" class=\"iframe-class\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.asianhealthservices.org/\">Asian Health Services\u003c/a>, a community clinic in Oakland, started \u003ca href=\"http://www.cahealthynailsalons.org/\">The California Healthy Nail Salon Collaborative\u003c/a> after the clinic identified a pattern of illness among nail salon workers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

And we realized that this was an epidemic,\" says Julia Liou, planning and development director at the clinic and the co-founder of the collaborative.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nail salons are big business in the United States — \u003ca href=\"http://files.nailsmag.com/Feature-Articles-in-PDF/NABB2015-16stats.pdf\">approximately $8.5 billion \u003c/a> in revenue in 2015. Some of the chemicals used in salons \u003ca href=\"https://www.osha.gov/SLTC/nailsalons/chemicalhazards.html\">are known to cause\u003c/a> skin disorders and respiratory problems, and possibly even cancer, miscarriages and birth defects. Formaldehyde and toluene are just two of the risky ingredients in the nail polishes, solvents, glues and hardeners in constant use in salons; the Environmental Protection Agency \u003ca href=\"https://www.epa.gov/sites/production/files/2015-05/documents/nailsalonguide.pdf\">lists\u003c/a> at least 20 such worrisome chemicals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But, so far, there's been little government regulation to protect workers. Liou is trying to get salon owners to make changes voluntarily to improve worker safety.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We don't want to create a fear where it's like, 'Oh nail salons are so scary that people can't go to them,' \" explains Liou. \"But we want to create a space where both the owner and the customer can feel comfortable, and actually create a model where the return on investment ends up being worker health.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Salons that participate in the collaborative must make significant changes to their business, including buying less toxic nail polishes, thinners and removers. All workers are required to wear specific types of gloves and masks when using certain products. Owners are also required to purchase a portable mechanical ventilation unit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It sucks in the air when I do artificial nails so the workers don't have to breathe in the toxic chemicals anymore,\" explains Dang, as she turns on the machine with a remote control. More than 80 percent of salon workers in California are Vietnamese American, and more than half are of reproductive age, according to the collaborative.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_283568\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/stateofhealth/wp-content/uploads/sites/27/2017/01/salon-2_enl-216a76948fef4044ad8fe46c41f7a076bc2f2fcf-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"Mai Dang's Fashion Nails has been certified as a healthy salon since 2013.

In return, Dang got a certificate that she hangs in her window to let customers know she is part of the collaborative. Fashion Nails is also listed as \u003ca href=\"http://www.co.alameda.ca.us/aceh/healthynail/documents/RECOGNIZED-SALONS.pdf\">a healthier nail salon \u003c/a>on a county website.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The process, however, was not cheap. Dang says the products she now uses, while safer, cost about 30 percent more. Overall, she estimates that she spent about $3,000 on the upgrades. To pay for it, she raised her prices by $2 per service.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One of Dang's customers, Genell Johnson, says she's more than willing to pay extra for the service.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"You get what you pay for,\" Johnson says. \"That's what they always say, and it's very true.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A survey of customers by the collaborative found that 90 percent were willing to pay at least a dollar more for services they knew were healthier. Johnson says she's a regular at Fashion Nails but had no idea it was a healthy salon.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Now I'm going to spread the word,\" says Johnson. \"This will be the perfect place, knowing they're so health conscious.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For Dang, the investment in a healthier salon seems to be paying off. Visits to her salon have increased, and her business has become more profitable, she says.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But getting businesses to make changes voluntarily is a slow process. Out of more than 8,000 nail salons in California, only 120 have joined the collaborative so far.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think the ultimate root of the issue is that the chemicals are still in the products,\" says collaborative co-founder Liou. \"If we want to look at really how do we improve worker health, we also need the manufacturers to consider how they can they make safer products as well.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, the Healthy Nail Salon Collaborative is making progress. The EPA recently \u003ca href=\"https://www.epa.gov/newsreleases/us-epa-awards-120000-protect-health-bay-area-nail-salons\">gave the collaborative a grant\u003c/a> to help them offer microloans to salons wanting to upgrade.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In September, California \u003ca href=\"http://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=201520160AB2125\">passed legislation\u003c/a> to help expand the program across the state, by training cities and counties on how to certify healthy nail salons in their regions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Kaiser Health News is a national health policy news service.

"headTitle": "End of California’s Epic Drought Is in Sight | KQED",
"content": "\u003cp>To paraphrase an old expression, this might not be the end of the drought, but you can see it from here.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The \u003ca href=\"http://droughtmonitor.unl.edu/Home/StateDroughtMonitor.aspx?CA\">U.S. Drought Monitor’s weekly analysis\u003c/a>, released on Thursday, shows 58 percent of California in at least moderate drought, compared to 97 percent one year ago. Only 2 percent of the state remains in the most extreme category, “exceptional drought,” down from nearly 43 percent a year ago.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This week some of California’s most respected voices in climate science and water supply started edging toward calling an end to the most punishing drought in memory, now in its sixth year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This series of storms — and when you look out it looks like we’re going to get even more wet — is a surface storage drought buster,” says Jeff Mount, co-founder of the Center for Watershed Sciences at UC Davis, now a senior fellow at the Public Policy Institute of California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a mid-week \u003ca href=\"https://californiawaterblog.com/2017/01/10/tails-of-californias-drought/\">post from the Center\u003c/a>, Mount’s former colleague, Jay Lund, largely agreed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“In terms of surface water, most of California is no longer in drought,” wrote Lund. “Unless the remainder of the year is incredibly dry and warm, 2017 will not be a drought for surface water, with perhaps a few local exceptions.” (Lund held out Santa Barbara as one of those exceptions, a city that still “faces major urban drought.”)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The state’s two largest reservoirs — Shasta and Oroville — are 26 percent and 17 percent above their average levels for mid-January.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Less than a month ago, hydrologists were fretting over a “snow drought” in the Sierra Nevada.

He has spent nearly all of his life in that system and has just turned 21. In California, that's the age when people in foster care \"age out\" of the system and lose the benefits the system provides. That process becomes official at a final court hearing. Anaya, along with Youth Radio, got rare permission to record the proceeding, where \u003c/em>\u003cem>he read a letter he wrote about his experience in the foster care system.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[http_redir]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe src=\"https://www.npr.org/player/embed/508608745/509179603\" width=\"100%\" height=\"290\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" title=\"NPR embedded audio player\" class=\"iframe-class\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Walking into court for my very last time as a foster youth, I feel like I'm getting a divorce from a system that I've been in a relationship with almost my entire life. It's bittersweet because I'm losing guaranteed stipends for food and housing, as well as access to my social workers and my lawyer. But on the other hand, I'm relieved to finally get away from a system that ultimately failed me on its biggest promise: that one day it would find me a family who would love me.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Little things, like when my judge Shawna Schwarz mispronounces my name, serve as a constant reminder that, \"Hey, I'm just a number.\" I often come away feeling powerless and anonymous in the foster care system.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
