Carbon dioxide is one of the major gases responsible for leavening in baking.
In bread making, the yeast organisms expel COโ as they feed off of sugars. COโ expands and moves as the bread dough warms and bakes in the oven

Controversy in Fukuoka: Kaylee McKeown (left) was disqualified for a back-to-breast turn infraction in the semi-final of the Women's 200m Individual Medley.
Alex Walsh (right) did not receive a DQ for her turn in the Final en route to a silver medal.
The specific rules applied are 6.5 & 9.4 of the World Aquatics Competition Regulations.
6.5 (Backstroke): Upon the finish of the race the swimmer must touch the wall while on the back.
9.4 (Medley Swimming): Each section must be finished in accordance with the rule which applies to the stroke concerned (6.5).
Both swimmers appear to be in violation of these rules (to some degree) while performing the "crossover turn." The video replay booth initiated McKeown's infraction, but not Walsh's.
If video review is going to be the norm for reviewing calls then so be it, but if it will also be used to initiate calls, a level of consistency needs to be maintained. The integrity of our sport depends heavily on it.

Picture this: It's a beautiful winter afternoon in Canada. You're minding your own business while shovelling snow.
Suddenly, a moose comes galloping towards you at full speed. ๐จ๐ฆ๐คฏ What do you do? #MeanwhileInCanada
