One Cause Of Heart Disease That Might Surprise You
(BPT) - One in four deaths in the U.S. is
caused by heart disease. More than 610,000
people die of heart disease in the U.S. every year,
making it the leading cause of death for both
men and women, according to the Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention. It’s no surprise
heart health is a priority for many people.
You know you need to eat a nutritious
diet, exercise and avoid smoking. However,
there’s a lot more you need to know to protect
yourself and your family. Consider these five
surprising facts about heart disease.
You may not have heard of familial hypercholesterolemia
(FH), a common, but
inherited genetic disorder that causes heart
disease. FH affects approximately one in 250
people worldwide, but 90 percent of people
born with this genetic condition are not
diagnosed. Individuals with FH have a high
amount of low density lipoprotein (LDL) or
“bad” cholesterol in their blood from birth.
This lifelong burden of cholesterol is a reason
FH leads to early and severe heart disease.
The good news is that FH is manageable if
detected and treated early in life.
Heart attacks have several major warning
signs and symptoms:
• Chest pain or discomfort.
• Upper body pain or discomfort in the
arms, back, neck, jaw or upper stomach.
• Shortness of breath.
• Nausea, lightheadedness or cold sweats.
Know the signs. Trust yourself. If you have
any of these symptoms or sense something
is just not right, call 911.
Many people think heart disease occurs
in old age, but it can affect people of all
ages. Even if you or your family members
are 30 years old or younger, you could be
affected, especially if you have risk factors
like high cholesterol or a family history of
heart disease. Keep in mind, each child with
a family member with FH has a 50 percent
chance of inheriting the disorder, which is
present at birth. Untreated individuals with
FH have up to a 20 times increased lifetime
risk of early heart disease, yet 90 percent of
people with FH are undiagnosed, according
to the FH Foundation.
Many adults are regularly screened for high
cholesterol, but it’s not as common for children
to be screened, although the American Academy
of Pediatrics recommends that all children between
the ages of 9 and 11 be screened for high
cholesterol. These guidelines also recommend
screening for FH as early as age 2 if there is a
family history of high cholesterol, early heart
disease or known FH. Talk to your children’s
doctor about screening. FH is characterized by
an LDL-C level of over 190 mg/dL in adults,
or over 160 mg/dL in children. FH may also
be confirmed with a genetic test, although this
is not necessary for diagnosis.
Being diagnosed with high cholesterol, heart
disease or even FH is not a death sentence.
Every person’s health considerations are
unique, but by working with your doctor, you
can come up with a plan to help manage your
health and maintain the strongest heart possible.
This could include lifestyle changes and
medications to manage the LDL cholesterol
level in the blood. The key is to keep asking
questions, learn about your specific health needs
and stay dedicated to your heart health plan. •

URGENCY ORDINANCE NO. 2163
AN URGENCY ORDINANCE OF THE
CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF HAWTHORNE,
ADDING CHAPTER 10.62 TO
TITLE 10 (VEHICLES AND TRAFFIC) OF
THE HAWTHORNE MUNICIPAL CODE
REGARDING DOCKLESS SHARED
MOBILITY DEVICES AND STATING THE
URGENCY THEREFFORE
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL
OF THE CITY OF HAWTHORNE DOES
ORDAIN AS FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. The City Council hereby makes
the following findings:
A. A number of operators have recently begun
operating fleets of dockless electric scooters
and bicycles, that are placed on sidewalks and
other public property throughout the region and
made available to members of the public for
rental via electronic transaction.
B. These fleets of “dockless shared mobility
devices” have appeared suddenly and unexpectedly,
and have proliferated rapidly. The
operators encourage customers to leave the
devices on sidewalks and other public property
when the customer has finished their use of
a device, and the devices include internal
locks that immobilize the device wherever it
has been left.
C. These dockless shared mobility devices
are unregulated, and throughout the region
are frequently abandoned by users in streets,
sidewalks, and other public places without regard
to the needs of pedestrians and other users
of the public property. Such abandonment of
large mechanically immobilized objects creates
a safety hazard for pedestrians who may trip
over the devices, interferes with the normal
use of public property, and makes it difficult
for people with disabilities to find a clear travel
path on sidewalks.
D. Moreover, due to the spontaneous nature
of device rentals and the appeal of these
devices to young people, dockless shared
mobility devices are nearly always operated
by users—often minors—without helmets, in
contravention of state law.
E. A company that operates a fleet of these
devices has recently informed business license
staff that they intend to commence operations
in the City.
F. For the reasons stated above, this ordinance
is necessary for the immediate preservation of
the public peace, health, and safety.
SECTION 2. Title 10 (Vehicles & Traffic) of
the Hawthorne Municipal Code (“HMC”) is
hereby amended to add a new Chapter 10.62
as follows:
Chapter 10.62 DOCKLESS SHARED
MOBILITY DEVICES.
10.62.010 Definition.
For purposes of this chapter:
A. “Dockless Shared Mobility Device” means
any motorized or non-motorized wheeled
device, other than a motor vehicle that must
be registered with the Department of Motor
Vehicles, that both:
(i) is made available for shared use or rental
by members of the public; and
(ii) includes a Wireless Lock that is integrated
into the device.
B. “Wireless Lock” means a mechanism on
a wheeled device that both;
(i) can, while the wheeled device is freestanding
in or lying on the public right-of-way or
public property, be activated or deactivated
via cellular phone network, Bluetooth, Near
Field Communication, RFID or other wireless
communication method; and
(ii) is designed to immobilize or lock one or
more wheels of a wheeled device (by means
other than locking the device to a bike rack or
other fixed object) or to disable the wheeled
device’s motor.
10.62.020 Prohibitions
A. It is unlawful to park, leave standing, leave
lying, or abandon a Dockless Shared Mobility
Device in a public right-of-way or on public
property anywhere within the City.
B. It is unlawful to activate a Dockless Shared
Mobility Device’s Wireless Lock while that the
Dockless Shared Mobility Device is in a public
right-of-way or on public property anywhere
within the City.
C. It is unlawful for a Dockless Shared Mobility
Device to be located in a public right-of-way
or on public property anywhere within the City,
while (i) one or more of its wheels are locked
or immobilized by its Wireless Lock (regardless
of the method by which the Wireless Lock was
activated) or (ii) its motor (if any) is deactivated
by its Wireless Lock (regardless of the method
by which its Wireless Lock was activated).
D. It is unlawful to provide or offer for use a
Dockless Shared Mobility Device anywhere
within the City.
10.62.030 Infraction
Violation of a prohibition set forth in Section
10.62.020 is an infraction punishable as set
forth in Chapter 1.22 of this Code.
10.62.040 Impoundment
Peace Officers, Traffic Control Officers , Parking
Enforcement Officers, Code Enforcement
Officers and any other employee or contractor
designated by the City Manager are authorized
to impound from any public right-of-way or public
property anywhere within the City any Dockless
Shared Mobility Device that is (i) parked,
(ii) left standing, (iii) left lying, (iv) abandoned,
or (v) in violation of subdivision C of Section
10.62.020 of this Code. Unless the City Council,
by resolution, sets some different impound and
storage fee, the impound shall be subject to the
same impound and storage fees as applies to
impounded bicycles.
SECTION 3. If any section, subsection,
sentence, clause, or phrase of this ordinance
is for any reason held to be invalid or unconstitutional
by the decision of any court of
competent jurisdiction, such decision shall not
affect the validity of the remaining portions of the
ordinance. The City Council hereby declares
that it would have passed this ordinance and
each section, subsection, sentence, clause,
and phrase thereof, irrespective of the fact
that any one or more sections, subsections,
sentences, clauses, or phrases be declared
invalid or unconstitutional.
SECTION 4. This Ordinance was assessed
in accordance with the authority and criteria
contained in the California Environmental Quality
Act (CEQA), the State CEQA Guidelines, and
the environmental regulations of the City. The
Ordinance is exempt from the requirements of
CEQA pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section
15061(b)(3) because it can be seen with certainty
that there is no possibility that prohibiting
Dockless Shared Mobility Devices from being
offered or left on the public right-of-way or on
public property will have a significant effect on
the environment. The Ordinance is additionally
exempt from CEQA pursuant to CEQA
Guidelines Section 15301(c), as it involves
no expansion of the use of existing facilities,
a category that includes streets and sidewalks
SECTION 5. The City Clerk shall cause this
Ordinance to be published at least once in a
newspaper of general circulation published and
circulated in the City within fifteen (15) days after
its passage in accordance with Section 36933
of the Government Code, shall certify to the
adoption of this Ordinance, and shall cause
this Ordinance and this certification, together
with proof of publication, to be entered in the
Book of Ordinances of the Council of this City.
SECTION 6. Pursuant to Government Code
§ 36937, this Ordinance shall go into full force
and effect immediately upon its passage by a
four-fifths majority of the City Council.
PASSED, APPROVED AND ADOPTED this
14th day of August 2018.
