I wanted to be exactly the opposite. All the antiquarian books are mixed in with the new, or at least reachable for people. I'm going to trust my customer to not take the book and throw it across the room. They're amazed. They'll say 'My god, this is from 1620? And you're letting me touch it?' I'll say, 'Yeah, actually the paper was stronger then, so feel free to look through it and check it out.'

I wanted to be exactly the opposite. All the antiquarian books are mixed in with the new, or at least reachable for people. I'm going to trust my customer to not take the book and throw it across the room. They're amazed. They'll say 'My god, this is from 1620? And you're letting me touch it?' I'll say, 'Yeah, actually the paper was stronger then, so feel free to look through it and check it out.'

The \u003cem>Post\u003c/em> broke news of this Friday evening.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By Saturday afternoon, HHS, which includes the CDC, issued a statement, calling the existence of a set of banned words a “complete mischaracterization.” Spokesperson Matt Lloyd adds:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\n\u003cp>“The assertion that HHS has ‘banned words’ is a complete mischaracterization of discussions regarding the budget formulation process. HHS will continue to use the best scientific evidence available to improve the health of all Americans. HHS also strongly encourages the use of outcome and evidence data in program evaluations and budget decisions.”\u003c/p>\n\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>The seven words that were to be stricken from official documents being drafted for the 2019 fiscal year budget, according to the \u003cem>Post,\u003c/em> are:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>diversity\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>entitlement\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>evidence-based\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>fetus\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>science-based\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>transgender\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>vulnerable\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>According to an unnamed CDC analyst in the \u003cem>Post’s \u003c/em>write-up, the list of the prohibited words was unveiled at the agency’s headquarters in Atlanta during a Thursday meeting that lasted 90 minutes. The meeting was reportedly led by Alison Kelly, a top official with CDC’s Office of Financial Services. The \u003cem>Post\u003c/em> adds that Kelly did not give a reason why the words were being banned, only that she was simply relaying the information. The \u003cem>Post\u003c/em> adds:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\n\u003cp>“In some instances, the analysts were given alternative phrases. Instead of ‘science-based’ or ’evidence-based,’ the suggested phrase is, ‘CDC bases its recommendations on science in consideration with community standards and wishes,’ the person said. In other cases, no replacement words were immediately offered.”\u003c/p>\n\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>If the report is true, it raises concerns about censorship under the Trump administration.

The \u003cem>Post\u003c/em> broke news of this Friday evening.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By Saturday afternoon, HHS, which includes the CDC, issued a statement, calling the existence of a set of banned words a “complete mischaracterization.” Spokesperson Matt Lloyd adds:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\n\u003cp>“The assertion that HHS has ‘banned words’ is a complete mischaracterization of discussions regarding the budget formulation process. HHS will continue to use the best scientific evidence available to improve the health of all Americans. HHS also strongly encourages the use of outcome and evidence data in program evaluations and budget decisions.”\u003c/p>\n\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>The seven words that were to be stricken from official documents being drafted for the 2019 fiscal year budget, according to the \u003cem>Post,\u003c/em> are:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>diversity\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>entitlement\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>evidence-based\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>fetus\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>science-based\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>transgender\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>vulnerable\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>According to an unnamed CDC analyst in the \u003cem>Post’s \u003c/em>write-up, the list of the prohibited words was unveiled at the agency’s headquarters in Atlanta during a Thursday meeting that lasted 90 minutes. The meeting was reportedly led by Alison Kelly, a top official with CDC’s Office of Financial Services. The \u003cem>Post\u003c/em> adds that Kelly did not give a reason why the words were being banned, only that she was simply relaying the information. The \u003cem>Post\u003c/em> adds:\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\n\u003cp>“In some instances, the analysts were given alternative phrases. Instead of ‘science-based’ or ’evidence-based,’ the suggested phrase is, ‘CDC bases its recommendations on science in consideration with community standards and wishes,’ the person said. In other cases, no replacement words were immediately offered.”\u003c/p>\n\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>If the report is true, it raises concerns about censorship under the Trump administration.

Detainees there also reported long waits for medical care.

Firefighters are often given \u003ca href=\"https://www.nifc.gov/wfstar/downloads/safety_essays/Alexander_VICFFR_keynote_address.pdf\">specific training\u003c/a> about what to do with limited evacuation options. For homeowners, however, \u003ca href=\"http://www.readyforwildfire.org/What-To-Do-If-Trapped/\">guidance can be sparse\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When it is too late and too dangerous to evacuate safely, fallback options must be considered and communicated ahead of time. In an urban conflagration situation, local details dictate whether “\u003ca href=\"http://firesafemendocino.org/creating-a-safety-zone-for-use-in-a-wildfire-emergency/\">safety zones\u003c/a>” actually exist as places to take refuge. Given the real potential for such disasters, many communities should consider identifying (or building) key “hardened” structures to act as local-scale refuges.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Reducing human exposure involves more attention to what people must do during a wildfire, or even the rare urban conflagration. Safe evacuation deserves as much emphasis as reduction of fuels, such as creating defensible space around homes or larger-scale fuel breaks by thinning vegetation around communities.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>A Safer Built Environment\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>From the scale of individual home construction up to the location and arrangement of development on a landscape, our communities should be better able to survive the natural hazards that occur there. This requires both short- and long-term strategies for achieving a safer built environment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As a starting point, we must acknowledge that we currently have tens of thousands – possibly even hundreds of thousands – of homes constructed according to building codes that leave these structures vulnerable to ignition. Amazingly, however, there are very few \u003ca href=\"http://thinisin.org/index.php/structural-ignitability/replacing-wood-roofs\">examples of grant programs\u003c/a> to mitigate such vulnerabilities through retrofit programs to, for instance, replace wood shake shingle roofs or to upgrade attic and crawl space vents to block embers from entering homes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In contrast, there are millions of dollars in public funds spent annually on community-scale fuel reduction projects. These are common activities pursued by \u003ca href=\"http://www.cafiresafecouncil.org/\">Fire Safe Councils\u003c/a> in California and similar organizations in other states.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The same level of support should be available for mitigation of fire-related structure vulnerabilities as there is for hazards.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over the long term, land use planning is probably the most effective tool available for creating safer communities. We must be more deliberate about how we develop on fire-prone landscapes, taking advantage of emerging hazard-mapping techniques.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11637034\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11637034\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/CoffeyPark-800x507.jpg\" alt=\"An aerial view shows the devastation of the Coffey Park neighborhood after the Tubbs Fire swept through Santa Rosa.\" width=\"800\" height=\"507\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/CoffeyPark-800x507.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/CoffeyPark-160x101.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/CoffeyPark-1020x646.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/CoffeyPark.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/CoffeyPark-1180x747.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/CoffeyPark-960x608.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/CoffeyPark-240x152.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/CoffeyPark-375x238.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/CoffeyPark-520x329.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">An aerial view shows the devastation of the Coffey Park neighborhood after the Tubbs Fire swept through Santa Rosa. \u003ccite>(Courtesy California National Guard)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>The goal here is not necessarily to build fewer homes, but to design and site developments that avoid the highest hazard regions and concentrate development in the lowest hazard areas.

Their vulnerability to ignition can also be especially high if they are spaced close together and the winds are strong, because that is when fire spread transitions to a structure-to-structure domino effect.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Better fire risk mapping means we should be able to refine our notion and approach to assessing vulnerability.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Reducing Human Exposure\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>There are numerous reports of how difficult and deadly it was \u003ca href=\"http://www.mercurynews.com/2017/10/09/santa-rosa-fire-how-a-sudden-firestorm-obliterated-a-city/\">to evacuate during the Tubbs Fire\u003c/a>. Apparently many people had almost no warning at all. This highlights the importance of both evacuation planning and evacuation communication systems, as getting out in time is what Americans tend to rely on in wildfire situations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Although evacuation preparedness is nearly always mentioned in \u003ca href=\"http://www.firewise.org/usa-recognition-program/cwpps.aspx\">Community Wildfire Protection Plans\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"http://www.readyforwildfire.org/Go-Evacuation-Guide/\">standard guidance for homeowners\u003c/a>, the overriding message is typically to “leave early” whenever possible.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While absolutely correct, this advice minimizes the importance of pre-fire evacuation planning and the short time there may be to get out. It takes quite a bit of thought and effort to anticipate being in such a crisis situation!\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11637443\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11637443\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/FireCyclist-800x495.jpg\" alt=\"A man bicycles past bluffs burned in the Thomas Fire on December 7, 2017 in La Conchita.\" width=\"800\" height=\"495\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/FireCyclist-800x495.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/FireCyclist-160x99.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/FireCyclist-1020x631.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/FireCyclist.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/FireCyclist-1180x730.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/FireCyclist-960x594.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/FireCyclist-240x149.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/FireCyclist-375x232.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/FireCyclist-520x322.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A man bicycles past bluffs burned in the Thomas Fire on Dec. 7, 2017 in La Conchita. \u003ccite>(Mario Tama/Getty Images)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>What should one take, and where might one actually go?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On short notice, how does one account for pets, children or the elderly?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Is there a place one should retreat to, if evacuation orders are received too late or not at all?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This last question may be the one that gets the least attention, and the many fatalities in the Tubbs Fire suggest that it requires much deeper consideration. Firefighters are often given \u003ca href=\"https://www.nifc.gov/wfstar/downloads/safety_essays/Alexander_VICFFR_keynote_address.pdf\">specific training\u003c/a> about what to do with limited evacuation options. For homeowners, however, \u003ca href=\"http://www.readyforwildfire.org/What-To-Do-If-Trapped/\">guidance can be sparse\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When it is too late and too dangerous to evacuate safely, fallback options must be considered and communicated ahead of time. In an urban conflagration situation, local details dictate whether “\u003ca href=\"http://firesafemendocino.org/creating-a-safety-zone-for-use-in-a-wildfire-emergency/\">safety zones\u003c/a>” actually exist as places to take refuge. Given the real potential for such disasters, many communities should consider identifying (or building) key “hardened” structures to act as local-scale refuges.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Reducing human exposure involves more attention to what people must do during a wildfire, or even the rare urban conflagration. Safe evacuation deserves as much emphasis as reduction of fuels, such as creating defensible space around homes or larger-scale fuel breaks by thinning vegetation around communities.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>A Safer Built Environment\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>From the scale of individual home construction up to the location and arrangement of development on a landscape, our communities should be better able to survive the natural hazards that occur there. This requires both short- and long-term strategies for achieving a safer built environment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As a starting point, we must acknowledge that we currently have tens of thousands – possibly even hundreds of thousands – of homes constructed according to building codes that leave these structures vulnerable to ignition. Amazingly, however, there are very few \u003ca href=\"http://thinisin.org/index.php/structural-ignitability/replacing-wood-roofs\">examples of grant programs\u003c/a> to mitigate such vulnerabilities through retrofit programs to, for instance, replace wood shake shingle roofs or to upgrade attic and crawl space vents to block embers from entering homes.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In contrast, there are millions of dollars in public funds spent annually on community-scale fuel reduction projects. These are common activities pursued by \u003ca href=\"http://www.cafiresafecouncil.org/\">Fire Safe Councils\u003c/a> in California and similar organizations in other states.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The same level of support should be available for mitigation of fire-related structure vulnerabilities as there is for hazards.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over the long term, land use planning is probably the most effective tool available for creating safer communities. We must be more deliberate about how we develop on fire-prone landscapes, taking advantage of emerging hazard-mapping techniques.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11637034\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-11637034\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/CoffeyPark-800x507.jpg\" alt=\"An aerial view shows the devastation of the Coffey Park neighborhood after the Tubbs Fire swept through Santa Rosa.\" width=\"800\" height=\"507\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/CoffeyPark-800x507.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/CoffeyPark-160x101.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/CoffeyPark-1020x646.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/CoffeyPark.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/CoffeyPark-1180x747.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/CoffeyPark-960x608.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/CoffeyPark-240x152.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/CoffeyPark-375x238.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/CoffeyPark-520x329.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">An aerial view shows the devastation of the Coffey Park neighborhood after the Tubbs Fire swept through Santa Rosa. \u003ccite>(Courtesy California National Guard)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>The goal here is not necessarily to build fewer homes, but to design and site developments that avoid the highest hazard regions and concentrate development in the lowest hazard areas.
