What do you think the lung tissue of a smoker looks like in comparison to a healthy lung tissue?

---

What do you think the lung tissue of a smoker looks like in comparison to a healthy lung tissue?
Normal lungs are pink and inflate/collapse normally. It might feel like a soft sponge. In an early smoker without COPD, the lungs will develop a grayish-black discoloration due to tar and soot deposits. With continued smoking, the lung will begin to scar (fibrose), and the lung architecture will become distorted. The lung may take on a rice-krispies-like texture. In severe emphysema, long-term fibrosis may lead to large air pocket formation (bullae), which can expand over time.  (+ info)

How much toilet tissue can you expect an office with 10 women to use working 8-5, M-F, per week?

---

My company has several office locations. One office with fewer women than any of the others uses twice the amount of tissue. Is it being used? Is it being stolen? How can a rational determination be made?
The calculation for 2ply toilet paper is one roll per woman per five day week. If you are using a cheaper 1ply then it goes up in number. But one normal size roll of 2ply per five days would be normal.  (+ info)

Is it normal to pass thick tissue and blood clots during your first period after a vaginal delivery?

---

I just started my period for the first time since giving birth 9 weeks ago. I noticed that I am passing some sort of thick tissue and nickel size around clots. My OB office is already closed for the day and I was wondering if any other women have passed tissue and clots during their first period after delivery and if this is normal or not.

Thanks for any help you might have!
It's normal. I had the same thing happen to me after my baby. Just as long as it isn't an overly excessive amount there isn't anything to worry about. After all, there was quite a bit if trauma going on down there with the birth.  (+ info)
