Today I am cleaning the EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation) valve and throttle body. This has been prompted by poor engine behaviour when the engine is cold. I've done this before in September 2020.
Our car is a 2011 Volvo XC70 with a 5-cylinder 2.4 litre diesel engine. Almost all manufacturers have moved away from big diesel engines in 2023.
At this stage the air filter housing has been removed and the pipe from the throttle body. The battery has been disconnected to avoid confusing the Engine Control Unit (ECU) when I have to disconnect sensors.

I'm not sure the Mumbai Mayor's campaign to use Gandhi's words to make the city clean really worked.
Well at least this pigeon at Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus isn't listening.
And if Gandhi didn't work there is also the sign on the right which promises manacles for those who spit, piss or litter.

In a lot of cases, you may require to go for the meticulous #dental #cleaning along with the regular dental hygiene practices in order to achieve proper cleanliness of your oral cavity. In this scenario, you can go for the use of mouth rinse or oral care gel containing chlorhexidine (CHX).
In a lot of cases, dentists suggest the use of products which contain CHX in order to obtain dental cleanliness. A few conditions in which the use of CHX may be recommended may include:
•denture stomatitis
•gingivitis
•mucositis
If you want to get rid of plaque, the anti-plaque agent which you can consider as the best one is CHX. The way it works is quite impressive. #CHX is generally positively charged. It sticks with the negatively charged sites. Those sites may include:
•hard dental tissues
•pellicles
•soft tissue
•cell walls of microorganisms
•biofilm
After the application, CHX tends to stay in the oral cavity for longer period of time.
Meticulous use
Good news is that CHX can help you maintain healthy ecological balance of oral bacteria in the mouth. This way, the general health of your oral cavity can be taken care of in an effective way. Here, you will have to make sure that CHX is being applied meticulously. CHX is normally included in the #mouthrinses and oral care gels. You can get the product of your choice in order to take care of your general oral health.
Some drawbacks
While CHX is quite effective for oral health, there are a few drawbacks which you need to take into consideration. Some of those drawbacks include:
•An unpleasant aftertaste
•Lost sense of taste in the mouth
•Possibility of discoloration in teeth and other restorations
Things to be taken into consideration
Generally, motivating people for using oral care gels and products can be quite effective. However, it has to be ensured that you are going for the product which is composed of mild-tasting preparation in order to avoid stains on teeth. These products have lower concentration of CHX. Other additives are also added to enhance effectiveness of product. According to a number of studies, mouth rinses with 0.1 % CHX of composition and oral care gels containing 0.2 % CHX of composition are highly effective for oral health. Hence, the use of products with high concentration CHX may not provide you with the benefits you look for.
In general, you need to visit your dentist biannually in order to keep your oral health maintained well.

If cleanliness is next to Godliness wouldn't angels take showers and wouldn't they get nekkid to do it? And aren't there boy and girl angels with boy and girl parts? Or are angels like sexless plastic dolls?
This piece is Inspired by an angel Julie Glass showed me. It had breasts. For some reason I'm cranking out tallywhacker art these days so I put one on my angel.

For bringing awareness about cleanliness Dr. Bindeshwar Pathak, Founder, Sulabh Movement has left no stone unturned. This was proved today at the Central Park, Connaught Place, New Delhi where convergence of 1000 students from various schools of Delhi who are members of Sulabh School Sanitation Club, along with member students from six countries — Bhutan, Nepal, Sri Lanka, Vietnam, Bangladesh and Afghanistan participated in the event. The crowd gave a big round of applause when Shri Vijay Goyal, Member of Parliament, Rajya Sabha, Dr. Bindeshwar Pathak and Mrs. Amola Pathak joined these school children in this walkathon carrying replicas of toilet pots over their heads and slogans of cleanliness drive in their hands with the message “Toilet for All by 2019”. The unveiling of the replica of India’s largest toilet pot was another attraction of the day. All these events were part of celebrations of International Toilet Festival in view of ‘World Toilet Day’ that falls tomorrow: November 19, 2014.
Around 2000 people including 1000 school children, 200 liberated and rehabilitated manual scavengers from Alwar and Tonk (Rajasthan), 100 widows from Vrindavan and Varanasi and women from Mewat (Haryana) and others from all walks of life actively took part in the event and made a HUMAN CHAIN to create awareness about the importance of toilets in keeping with ‘Swachch Bharat’ campaign of the Hon’ble Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Hon’ble Shri Karan Singh Tanwar, Vice Chairperson, New Delhi Municipal Corporation joined the students in this HUMAN CHAIN.
On this occasion students released 1000 balloons in the air with the message of cleanliness drive.
During the event Dr. Bindeshwar Pathak called upon the participating students and others for a PLEDGE to make India clean.
The largest tri-coloured Flag of India was unfurled with pride in Connaught Place when Dr. Bindeshwer Pathak, icon of Sanitation along with 2000 people including erstwhile untouchables of Alwar and Tonk, Rajasthan and widows of Vrindavan and Varanasi recited “JAN-GAN-MAN’. This was part of the International Toilet Festival being celebrated by Sulabh International Social Service Organisation.
On the occasion Hon’ble Shri Karan Singh Tanwar, Vice Chairperson, New Delhi Municipal Corporation, Dr. Bindeshwar Pathak and Sulabh Sanitation Club’s member students from six countries — Bhutan, Nepal, Sri Lanka, Vietnam, Bangladesh and Afghanistan shared the dais and lighted the Lamp.
Hon’ble Shri Karan Singh Tanwar delivered a motivational speech on Clean India Drive (Swachch Bharat Campaign).
Sulabh International Founder, Dr. Pathak addressed the audience and said that our aim is to create awareness about toilets and sanitation. Hailing Prime Minister Narendra Modi's vision of having a toilet built in every household by 2019, Dr. Bindeshwar Pathak said that the country will finally realise Mahatma Gandhi's dream of total sanitation.
"Narendra Modi is the first Prime Minister to have emphasised this much on the issue of sanitation. Even the developed countries have not emphasised as much," he said. Lamenting the fact that previous governments did not adopt the "Sulabh model" he expressed hope that the Modi Government will replicate it, which he claimed will help the government in achieving its objective of total sanitation.
"Our model has helped in putting an end to large scale open defecation in many areas apart from liberating many manual scavengers. The Alwar and Tonk model should be replicated all over the country," he said.
A skit “Ghar Ghar Alakh Jagane Wale” was played to show the importance of Sulabh Shauchalayas in our lives.

This series of 18 classroom posters was printed in 1937 by the Educational Art Company in Sioux Falls, South Dakota.
They hang in a single wooden frame deep enough to hold all 18 posters, with an open top that makes it easy to pull out the stack of posters and move a new poster to the front. Over a 9-month school year, the 18 posters would have been enough for the teacher to put a new poster on display every two weeks or so. Some posters are specific to holidays, while others extol virtue or warn against vice.
I offer great thanks to local artist Gregg Luginbuhl for loaning me this vintage collection so that I could photograph it and post it here as an act of preservation. We cannot find any other record of these posters having existed — apart from its description in a 1937 Library of Congress catalog that gives us the actual name of the series of posters (which is not printed on the collection itself):
“Oh what fun—school’s begun. [Citizenship posters]”
When Gregg hangs the posters, it always seems to be “Learn from Nature” that migrates most often to the front.

Yet another scene which made me hang my head in shame as an Indian. I was amazed at the sheer cleanliness of Y/Jogjakarta train station's precincts. So admirably clean! The paintwork is fresh, the plinthed traction engine is sparklingly pristine- in India you will have election posters, people spitting and peeing all over the place, trash, vendors stray dogs, beggars-- you name it. I am nearly 60 now, and I think the thought of seeing my own country this neat and clean is but a far pipe dream. Sad. (Y/Jogjakarta, Indonesia, May 2018)
I'm not taking morning showers anymore since my cleanliness will soon be wasted on first period PE. We're doing swimming now. I've set my alarm to 6:30 AM which means I can stay up 'til 10:30 and get my 8 hours!
I folded a few cranes today during school. What my friend and fellow scout, Vy Pham wants to do is to have people donate to Japan and give them a crane as a reward. (Basically, she's selling them for w/e.) It makes sense. The people over there would benefit much more from money rather than paper birds. What would the Japanese Girl Scouts do w/ them once we send them over? I had a daydream they'd throw them at clowns.
I especially like the lighting in this one. Heh.
I researched Vietnamese-American superhereos. When I just look up Asian-American comic book superheroes in general, most are all Korean (Ryan Choi) or Japanese (Karate Kid). First, I got Bengal from Daredevil (Not really a hero, though. Way back in the late 1980s.) They all came up as minor characters in the comic. (Yes, I checked both DC and Marvel.) I don't think there will ever be a major comic series that revovles entirely around an Asian hero. :< (Secret Identities: The Anthropology of Asian American Superheroes is an exception. I never read it myself, but I reccommend it to anyone that wants to renew their pride in their background.)

"Our model has helped in putting an end to large scale open defecation in many areas apart from liberating many manual scavengers. The Alwar and Tonk model should be replicated all over the country," he said.
A skit “Ghar Ghar Alakh Jagane Wale” was played to show the importance of Sulabh Shauchalayas in our lives.
