Does My Workers’ Comp Attorney in Boise Know How Long It Will Take for Workers’ Compensation To Pay Me for My Workplace Injuries?
When a workplace accident strikes, there are often injuries. As an employee, you have a right to workers’ compensation. Workers’ comp will provide you with medical benefits as well as compensation for your injuries. A workers’ compensation lawyer in Boise can help you with the filing process.
The way that workers’ comp works is each employer pays into the program. You receive compensation for the payments that your employer has made to cover you should a workplace accident occur. Medical coverage for your injuries is provided under your employer’s health insurance provider, but you must see a doctor they have approved.
Receiving workers’ comp takes time. There is a waiting period before you will receive your benefits. Typically, this is one week from the date of your injury. Following the one week waiting period you will then receive regular payments as long as you need to recover. Your doctor will determine when you are released to go back to work.
If you fail to return to work in any capacity you will lose your workers’ comp benefits, especially if you need to return to light-duty work. When your doctor releases you to perform light-duty work, you will continue to receive compensation from the Idaho Industrial Commission. This will supplement your wages which may be at a lesser scale than what you previously received in your job position.
Filing for workers’ comp in Idaho is a complex process. It requires that you file a workplace injury claim with your employer. You will need to report your injuries to your employer and follow all the required policies and procedures that they have in place for workplace accidents.

If you receive a denial of benefits, you will need the help of a Boise workers’ compensation lawyer. They can represent you during the appeals process and work to get your workplace injury claim approved.

TBILISI, August 27 (Itar-Tass) — Any decision on the fate of the Abkhazian region without the participation of displaced persons is illegal, the Georgian Foreign Ministry said in a statement on Saturday.
According to the statement, “as a result of the armed conflict of 1992-1993 about 500,000 residents of the Abkhazian region – Georgians, Ukrainians, Armenians, Greeks, Estonians and others – became refugees and deprived of the right to return to their homes and take part in decision-making.”
The ministry says, “Due to the existing realities the elections in the Abkhazian region violates all norms of international law and cannot be considered legitimate.”
Tbilisi is convinced that the international community “will give an adequate assessment to a farce in the Abkhazian region pursue the non-recognition policy”, the ministry said.

It Is Becoming Extremely Hard To Ignore The Facts, The Economy Is Collapsing
GM auto sales have crashed and the outlook looks dismal. US construction spending declines as the housing market implodes. Manufacturing is not improving. Quarter of a trillion dollars in US savings have been wiped away. American income growth has slowed as the economy continues to stall. Trumps the funding of MyRA that Obama created to keep the bond buying ponzi scheme afloat. The sanctions on Russia will most likely drive other countries closer together which will push fuel prices up.

It’s funny how during your lifetime you are positively affected by a moment, an individual, a place, or an event. In my case, it is a combination of all these things aboard a wonderful old passenger ship.
Back in 1970, I had not long since become a civilian again after doing military service in South East Asia. I was in my early twenties and the world was my oyster. And so I decided to cross the world by sea from south to north aboard an old liner, RHMS Ellenis, the flagship of the Greek-owned Chandris Line.
She was launched on the 12 of July 1932 and christened SS Lurline, taking her place in the ranks of ships operating under the Matson Navigation Companies house flag on her maiden voyage on the 12 of January 1933.
Under her last name RHMS Ellenis, she was finally scrapped in Taiwan in 1987.
She was 632 feet in length, with a beam of 79 feet. She weighed in at 18,163tons and was efficiently run by a crew of 359. Her maximum speed was 22 knots. Originally she had accommodation for 715 passengers, divided up into 475 first class cabins and 240 for tourist class.
Lurline, or Ellenis as I knew her, was built for the Hawaii to Australasia run from the west coast of the United States. Her sister ships were the SS Malolo, SS Mariposa and SS Monteray. As the USAT Lurline, she served as a troopship during World War II.
She was half-way from Honolulu to San Francisco on 7 December 1941, when the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbour. She made her destination safely travelling at maximum speed, and soon returned to Hawaii with her Matson Line sister ships Mariposa and Monterey in a convoy laden with troops and supplies.
She was bought in 1963 by Chandris Lines to replace the SS Brittany, wrecked by fire. She sailed under her new name Ellenis from California to North East England for repairs in the dockyards of North Shields and was refitted with increased accommodation for 1,668 passengers, this time in one class.
Ellenis fast became one of the most important luxury cruise ships on the Australian and New Zealand services. She operated successfully in Oceania until 1980.
In April 1974 while cruising to Japan, she developed major problems in one engine. Fortunately, a surplus engine from her sister ship Homeric (formerly the Mariposa) which was being broken up in Taiwan at the time was available.
When I knew her, Ellenis was in the autumn of her seagoing life. In 1970 she took me north via the Panama Canal and on to New York, before negotiating the Atlantic and the English Channel, eventually docking at Southampton.
The following year on the journey back south to New Zealand, an hour after leaving Southampton, she temporarily ran aground on the western side of the Isle of White. When we woke up the next morning we were in the Bay of Biscay heading south to Las Palmas.
Unfortunately Las Palmas was closed as it was a Sunday.
The run down Africa’s west coast to Capetown largely went without a hitch. Back then South Africa was in the iron grip of apartheid. It was while climbing up the slopes of Table Mountain that I had a close encounter of the venomous snake kind.
My companions mentioned the incident to our taxi driver when he was delivering us back to the docks. I remember his face turning a funny colour when he asked what it looked like.
Apparently I had trodden on the second most venomous snake in all of Africa. Thank goodness for the early hour of the day, the lack of warmth making the snake sluggish, stout leather boots and sheer ignorance. I had actually picked it up, after standing on it, to look at it. A few minutes earlier I had picked up a Scarab-like beetle.
The journey across the Southern Indian Ocean to Perth was awe-inspiring. Ellenis climbed mountainous waves taller than her superstructure in a howling gale. When she was temporarily perched on top of one of the massive walls of water, the old lady shook as her propellers sliced through air instead of water.
The passage to Melbourne and Sydney was largely uneventful. But the crossing of the Tasman Sea back to New Zealand was definitely rough, simply because of its relative shallowness.
The abiding memories of my time aboard Ellenis are the great times, the parties and the girls I met and fell in lust with. It’s true what they say about shipboard romances.
Beside all of the former memories there is one more thing which will always stay with me, the Greek bar waiter who looked after us on the voyage south, who we all took a shine to.
Because he had a permanent grin on his face and he had six perfectly functioning fingers on each hand. Never once in bad weather did he lose the trays of drinks his large hands supported, nor was a drop ever spilled by him. We, on the other hand…
When I walked ashore back in Wellington, I had a grin on my face a mile wide and £10 in my pocket. In short, I had had the time of my life. Sadly you simply don’t get that degree of pleasure these days when travelling by air.

My husband and I have been married for eleven years. My husband is 58 years old and has a Parkinson's related dementia. We noticed some alarming lapses in his memory about 20 months ago. He would blank out days and significant events and even trips we took together. My husband had experienced depression and it was managed for a number of years, but this was very different.
Our primary care physician referred us to a geriatric specialist in his practice and within a couple of months, we met with him and some other members of his geriatric medical team. They did a number of in office tests, lab work and other diagnostic tests and went over his medical and medication history. Finally, they referred us to a neurologist who specializes in Parkinson's and related conditions.
Although not definitive, it is thought that my husband has Lewy Body Dementia (or Dementia with Lewy Bodies). It is a progressive neurological disease in which some of the symtoms manifest themselves in a different order than Alzheimer's with some other troubling symptoms that differentiate it from other forms of dementia.
My journey with navigation of the health care system began with my Mother's dementia and diagnosis with Alzheimer's three years earlier. My mother now has moderate to severe Alzheimer's and resides in a nursing facility. While it is sad to watch the deterioration of a once vital and very active person, I consider myself and our family very fortunate to have a great placement in the nursing home in which she resides. The staff is second to none and they have become her family. I live only a few miles from the facility and visit her almost daily.
In each of my loved ones cases, navigation of the health care system has proven the most difficult for me. I have viewed my role as an advocate for both my mother and my husband in seeking diagnosis, appropriate treatment, selecting an earlier assisted living facility with my siblings and finding a good placement for my mother in a nursing home. While "managed care" is a common term used in health care, I have found that I must remain proactive in getting the various physicians to communicate, not only with me and my husband, but with each other.
My husband remains in our home. This year, we made some changes to update our home to allow him to live comfortably here as long as will be possible with changes in flooring and to the bathrooms. To date, we do not anticipate an immediate problem with remaining here at our home. Physically, my husband experiences memory loss enough so that cues are throughout the house. I manage his medication. He hasn't driven for 20 months. When I'm out, either at a part time job or doing errands, I contact him, frequently, to ensure his safety.
From a caregiving perspective, my knee-jerk reaction for both my husband and my mother was to learn as much as I could and participate in both Alzheimer's and Parkinson's related groups in my community. I do so for my sanity and to learn about the ever changing availability of resources (both good and bad!) and tips from others. I've taken a class sponsored by the Alzheimer's Association called Savvy Caregivers, I've read books, searched the internet and talked with doctors. Initially, in both my husband's and mother's cases, I felt like I had to sprint to be a good caregiver and while I now remain vigilant, I understand that I have to take care of myself before I can play a positive role in the care of my husband and my mother. This remains a challenge but I am doing better at it. Some days, I have to have a "self-imposed time out" even if it means going to the grocery store alone or driving in the car and listening to loud music and singing along. I practice my faith, imperfectly, but as imperfect as it is, it helps me get through my days.
I am wonderfully fortunate to have three long time friends, two from our teen years who continue to be my dear friends. Two of them are also in caregiving roles. We commiserate. We talk on the phone and sometimes we have a glass of wine together. My friendships are important and supportive. I have a step-son who is now at the age where I can call on him for help with his Dad whether it is watching a football game or just going to a movie or watching movies here in our home. I have siblings who offer comic relief to all of us and understand what we are going through but they fail to allow me to take life too seriously. For now, that is okay.
My husband and I talk about the past. We were struck when our neurologist told us to make new memories. I felt we were too young to face such a suggestion. But I've learned as we walk this walk, if we don't try to find the "life" in our lives, we will become angry and frustrated and we don't won't to live that way anymore than we have to.
I'm not saying that this is what I wanted in life and if I could change it all, I would in a minute. But for now, it is our reality. We have to make the best of it here in our household and make new memories for both my husband and me.

WR Commuters crowd stations despite Mega block warning
Local trains on Western Railway (WR) will now emit fewer carbon pollutants, consume less energy and run faster after the last phase of traction conversion from the existing 1,500 volt Direct Current (DC) to 25,000 volt Alternate Current (AC) was completed on Sunday.
Work on the railway lines, however, left hundreds of commuters stranded due to the six-hour mega block from 10.30am to 4.30pm between Andheri and Churchgate. While some were forced to spend on autorickshaws and taxis, or jostle for space in crowded BEST buses, many others had to wait for services to resume in the evening.
“Even if there was a prior notification, some people are compelled to travel,” said Shankar Kakad, 43, who was stranded at Dadar station for more than two hours. “How can you expect people to pay for taxis from Dadar to Borivali?”
Sharat Chandrayan, chief public relations officer, WR, maintained that people were warned in advance and the conversion is a major advancement for railway services. “There would be a substantial shift from 9-car to 12-car trains and the speed of rakes would increase from 80 km per hour to 100 km per hour,” said Chandrayan.

A little prayer I wrote for a gathering of friends this month. May it stir hope in your heart this Christmas.
Where we had not even looked for you, you chose to reveal yourself.
Where we thought we were furthest from you, you chose to dwell.
Upon us who lived in darkness, suddenly, a light shone.
You who calls brokenness, full; dependence, glory.
Only you write this kind of story.
Why do we ever doubt you?
You are the God who breaks in.
And who will again.
May it be to us as You have said,
May we find our yes in your amen.

Wessex Water has deployed a specialist camera to help monitor the commissioning and operation at one of its largest sewage pumping stations. In March 2010, the company began building a new pumping station at Ashton Avenue near the Cumberland basin in Bristol.
The facility is used for storm pumping in the event of heavy rains and includes a new 400m2 screening chamber that removes debris from the flow. The screens can handle some 8,000l/s of storm water, however, the screening chamber sits in an enclosed water screening building, which David Mining, Wessex's ICA technical & development manager, describes as an extremely "unpleasant environment".
To enhance health and safety and keep staff out of the chamber as much as possible, Wessex Water has worked with German software company Mobotix and its Hampshire-based partner, security camera specialist SeSys. SeSys has deployed a Mobotix camera, modified to meet ATEX standards for explosive atmospheres, to monitor the pumps.
A SeSys Camera solution has been selected to record the construction of £74 million upgrade of a United Utilities waste water treatment works.
The plant, which is one of the UK's largest, will be able to generate increased electricity from biogas generated by the new process. To document this process Black & Veatch, the Principle Contractor, selected SeSys to provide a wireless network and multiple high resolution cameras linked to a recording and monitoring solution.
The camera system allows staff to view the site remotely, reducing United Utilities carbon footprint by reducing journeys to site. The cameras will also create a detailed record of the two year construction project to be retained for future reference as a time lapse video.
Problem: Southern Water supplies fresh, quality drinking water to households across Sussex, Kent, Hampshire and the Isle of Wight. The company inspects the quality of its drinking water every week at locations across its regions via a manual sampling process that includes a critical sequence of actions to ensure that the sample reaches the highest standards.
Solution: To ensure that the samples are properly carried out and verifiable, Southern Water began a project to install a high resolution Digital CCTV system which alerts its main control centre and records the entire sampling process.


text: Thirty-seven Brucella reference and field strains representing all the species and their biovars were analysed by PCR-RFLP to determine the degree of variation in the genes encoding the new members of group 3 outer membrane protein (Omp) family. Analysis of the omp22 and omp25c/omp25d genes indicated that the restriction patterns were identical for all species and biovars with all restriction enzymes tested, except for Brucella ovis that showed a short 30 bp deletion close to omp22 gene, and for B. abortus biovar 6 and B. ovis that lacked a DdeI site and a HinfI site, respectively, in the omp25c/omp25d genes. Analysis of PCR products of the omp31b gene digested with 20 restriction enzymes revealed that this gene has a greater level of DNA polymorphism than the other genes encoding the new members of group 3 Omp family. A deletion of 232bp was detected in fourteen B melitensis strains from different hosts and from different geographic origins, confirming that this feature is indeed a hallmark of B. melitensis. PCR-RFLP analysis of omp31b with DdeI allowed us to identify species-specific markers for B. abortus, B. melitensis, and B. ovis. Finally, by PCR analysis, Southern blot hybridization and DNA sequencing we showed that a large deletion of 15 kb, comprising the entire omp25b gene and 21 more genes, is present in all B. ovis strains, thus confirming previous observations from other authors.

The organizers of the Design Workshop Series are delighted to announce the confirmation of Kunle Afolayan multiple award-winning Nollywood filmmaker, Ohimai Atafo creative director of the MAI Lifestyle fashion brand and Yinka Davies Nigerian Idols’ judge and 2007 NMA Voice of the Decade as speakers for the eleventh (11th) edition of the DWSeries.
Kunle Afolayan, scion of the renowned Nigerian theatre pioneer, Ade ‘Ade Love’ Afolayan, famously dumped a career in banking to pursue a diploma in film-making at the prestigious New York Film Academy NYFA. This decision and a strong eye for quality has led to the production of three (3) ground-breaking movies: Irapada (2007), Figurine (2010) and
Phone Swap (2012); with each setting an unprecedented standard in the local film industry- Nollywood. Afolayan was educated at the Lagos State University LASU where he received a degree in Accounting.
Ohimai Atafo, arguably Nigeria’s most cerebral fashion designer runs a fashion cum lifestyle brand that he seeks to build into a world-class one. ‘Mai’ as he is fondly called has a cumulative ten years’ experience in branding, marketing and merchandising. He was responsible for the appealing brand campaigns at Guinness Nigeria Plc. till a couple of years ago and has exhibited at international fashion festivals including the Arise Magazine Fashion Week in Lagos. He is respected for his iconic wedding collections, some of which have been adorned by top celebrities locally and internationally. When Mai isn’t designing clothes, he is a compere, speaker, mentor or critic. He currently sits as the Senior fashion editor at Nigeria’s Genevieve magazine.
Yinka Davies was named the Nigerian Music Awards NMA ‘Voice of the Decade’ in 2007. She is respected as one of Nigeria’s best vocalists, a hallmark that has earned her a place on the Nigerian Idols’ jury. Yinka’s greatest asset is her voice; that unmistakable energy of the stunningly sonorous voice that touches the soul. Yinka Davies has been compared to
Eartha Kitt because she can perform any style: Jazz, R n’ B, Afrobeat, Pop, Soul and Alternative. She is an artiste who makes music easy to listen to while using intricate traditional folklore parables from the home front. Yinka who was a one-time lead vocalist in Lagbaja’s Colours band has done collaborations with local and international music acts and her latest album, Black Chiffon has been getting rave reviews.
Established in 2011, the DWSeries has become a major avenue for consistent interaction between industry practitioners and students or willing youths, hence bridging the gap between the two worlds and challenging young minds to creativity and focus. Set on the main campus of the University of Lagos, the Design Workshop Series has received an enthusiastic response from the audience as the forward-looking, experimental and context sensitive show.
In December 2011, the organizing committee decided to re-work the workshop series by introducing a system where industry practitioners who have made a reputation out of careers in the creative economy: art, architecture, cinema, literature & music; are invited to keep the lectures expository and interesting. Since 25th February 2012, Tunde Kelani, Kelechi Amadi-Obi, Paul Kodje, Bez Idakula, Omoyemi Akerele, Dapo Akintunde and a myriad of others have graced the DWSeries stage to deliver thought-provoking sessions.
Attendance has been fully paid for by the facilitators – ONE EA but seat reservations need to be made.

Condominiums continue to be hot sellers in Toronto. While the market for single family homes show signs of cooling, the condo market continues to be relatively strong – particular when it comes to luxury condos. In Toronto, condo units priced between $2 million and $4 million saw a 12% gain in the number of sales in 2018, according to the latest data from the Toronto Real Estate Board (TREB). This means that condos continue to be a good investment – either as a primary residence or rental property.
And the condo market promises to remain red hot in 2019 with a number of new and exciting developments coming online throughout the city. Whether you want to live downtown among the hustle and bustle or further out close to greenspaces, there is a new condo development to suit your needs and tastes, as well as your budget. Price ranges for condos vary, making them affordable on any salary. Here are five upcoming developments you should know about:
875 Queen East Condos
Address: 875 Queen Street East
Price: from $700,000
If you’re looking for a trendy downtown condo, then be sure to check out the development at 875 Queen Street. Not only is this seven storey residence situated in the heart of the city, it overlooks vibrant Queen Street East which is always bustling with activity and in the centre of the action. The development features urban, loft-inspired boutique condominiums available with either one or two bedrooms. The sizes of the condos range from 715 square feet to more than 1,100 square feet. And each unit comes with one parking space. Penthouse level suites feature terraces with plenty of space for entertaining. Terraces also come with barbecue gas bibs. Priced in the high $700,000 range.
346 Davenport Road
Address: 346 Davenport Road
Price: over $1 million
For truly high-end luxury, look no further than the condo development at 346 Davenport Road, which opened in January of this year. Located just west of the prestigious Yorkville and of Forest Hill neighbourhoods, this is an elite set of luxury suites. Tennants will enjoy 10-foot high floor to ceiling windows that provide panoramic views of Toronto. Balconies are huge at as much as 3,061 square feet and overlook Yorkville and the Toronto skyline. Two and three bedroom units are available and range from 1,500 – 2,700 square feet of open concept living space. Spa bathrooms are outfitted with natural stone countertops and ceiling mounted rain shower-heads. Note though that this condo development is not for price-conscious consumers. Prices per unit are over $1 million.
7 On The Park Condos
Address: Keele Street and Lawrence Avenue West
Further north in the city is the 7 On The Park Condos, a pre-construction development located at the intersection of Keele Street and Lawrence Avenue West in the North York region. With easy access to transit and only steps from grocery stores, shops and services, including Walmart, this could be an ideal location for a family. Overlooking Amesbury Park, which has 30 acres of greenspace, this development will also have a fully-equipped fitness centre and a multipurpose entertaining facility.

Kristian Desailly is an abstract painter with broad shoulders and a mop-like coiffure drawn back into a ponytail, who has lived since 2004 in Gordes on a mountaintop amidst green oaks and ancient bories where during the warm months he mounts large canvases on an outdoor stone surface to paint in plein air.
Kristian diverges from pure abstraction by evoking playful and inventive gestures and images, which appear as figurative motifs such as birds, fish, animals, urban landscapes, stars, sun or the moon, summoning up the styles of Chagall and Kandinsky.
It was at the age of fifteen that Kristian discovered his artistic calling when he was swept into rapture by the work of Paul Klee. The childlike drawings and primitive art forms of Klee Joan Miro would inspire artists to establish CoBrA. These artists – Karel Appel, Constant, Corneille, Christian Dotremont, Asger Jorn, and Joseph Noiret – drew up a manifesto in 1948 for the “Mouvement CoBrA”, the name derived from their home cities of Copenhagen, Brussels, and Amsterdam, heralding complete freedom of color and form. Although disbanded in 1951, CoBrA influenced the work of abstract expressionists in the decades of the 50’s and 60’s as well as the adolescent Kristian.
After studying at the Ecole Nationale Superieure des Beaux-Arts and the Ecole Nationale Supérieure des Arts Décoratifs, Kristian served for fifteen years as an assistant to Victor Vasarely, a master of geometric abstraction, and then worked for over a decade with Jean Miotte, a lyrical abstract painter based in the Var.
Last Saturday evening, Kristian descended from his serene refuge to the Galerie Pascal Lainé in Ménerbes to greet patrons at a vernissage for an exhibit of his recent works of acrylic and watercolor on canvas or paper, embellished with drawings in charcoal and pastel.
On Saturday, June 7, at 7:00 p.m., Francoise Buteau will speak on the long harmonious collaboration between the writer Pierre Jourde and Kristian Desailly. In French.
A personal reflection: PVB first met Kristian Desailly, then based in Paris, at a vernissage for Jean Miotte in the French countryside in 1994, and only last year, nineteen years later, eyes peering over a glass of rosé at a vernissage in Ménerbes, did the silhouette of Kristian reappear “comme par enchantment.”
Exhibit: Kristian Desailly, Recent Works, May 24 to June 18
Hours: Open Tuesday to Sunday from 10:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. and 3:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m.

Journal : Journal of Loss Prevention in the Process Industries, Volume 48, July 2017, Pages 55-70
The failure of shell and tube heat exchangers is a chronic problem in the chemical process industries. Meager safety analysis and lack of inherently safer design considerations are noticeable issues resulting in the failure of these heat exchangers. Existing inherent safety level quantification methods mostly focus on the process route selection in the preliminary design stage. Nevertheless, existing methods have never been applied to quantify the inherent safety level in a heat exchanger network. Therefore, this paper presents a coherent framework to outline an inherently safer heat exchanger network in the preliminary design stage. In this framework, newly developed safety indices are introduced to estimate the inherent safety level of a single heat exchanger and the heat exchanger network. The worst heat exchanger is identified based on the lowest inherent safety level. An inherent risk assessment (IRA) of the worst heat exchanger is carried out to analyze the inherent risk of potential explosion event. Moreover, normal distribution of the safety index values is analyzed through the normality test. Inherent risk assessment and the normal distribution of index values are configured as a decision-making steps for implementing the inherently safer design strategies. This framework is integrated with a process design simulator (Aspen HYSYS) for seamless transfer of the process information. A heat exchanger network of a typical ammonia synthesis loop was considered as a case study. Inherently safer designs for this heat exchanger network are presented by using moderation and simplification methods. The inherent safety level of the heat exchanger network can be improved by applying inherently safer design strategies.

Since taking office, Governor Dirk Kempthorne has believed, and shown, that state and local governments must be at the forefront of environmental protection. This differs from the philosophy of many national environmental groups and their Democrat allies, who ardently believe that the federal government must take the lead and all others follow.
The crux of many Washington, D.C. - based environmental groups complaints against Governor Kempthorne is simple: they believe the federal government has the best solutions to protect the environment, and believe state and local governments, and the people closest to the issue, should be kept out of the decision-making process. This is especially true when the states and locals don't agree with them.
Governor Kempthorne's long list of environmental accomplishments follows this state-based philosophy as he has worked to build consensus and partnerships between state, local and tribal governments, and public citizens and local businesses.

Pennsylvania Finance Building, Harrisburg, Pa.
Notices went out to an estimated 60 employees of the Treasury Department that their positions were being eliminated as a result of anticipated cuts to the department's budget, according to David Fillman, executive director of the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees Council 13
, the state's largest employee union.
Those affected included both union and managerial employees.
Union employees have bumping rights that allow them to move into positions held by less senior employees. Fillman indicated efforts are being made to try to move the affected employees into other state government jobs.
Treasury officials did not immediately return messages seeking comment.

The past six games against the Los Angeles Dodgers and Cincinnati Reds might’ve showed who the Phillies really are, a flawed team that can’t quite match up with the better teams in the National League.
The good news is that the Phils’ next three games are against a team that is not among the better teams in the NL, at all.
If the Phillies are serious about making the playoffs, they better win these games.
The Phils face up against the Arizona Diamondbacks for a three game set in Arizona.
Last time they met
The Phillies played a three-game set against Arizona in August 2019 that saw the D’Backs take two out of three. The Phillies starting pitchers for the series were Vince Velasquez, Jason Vargas, and Jake Arrieta, so winning one out of three seems like quite an accomplishment honestly.
This season for the D’Backs
They D’Backs have the worst record in the league thanks mostly to a pitching staff whose team ERA ranks dead last. The situation is made worse by having a bunch of pitchers on the IL. The haven’t even announced the starters for the final two games of the series.
They’re nothing exciting on offense either with Ketel Marte being the only real standout. And even his power has abandoned him, with just five home runs on the season, two years after he hit 32. That’s not surprising since home runs aren’t exactly the D’Backs’ thing. They only have two players in double digits: Eduardo Escobar (22) and Josh Rojas (11).
The news hasn’t been all bad for Arizona this season, as they recently had a pitcher throw a no-hitter in his debut — Tyler Gilbert.
Game 1: Kyle Gibson (RHP | 8-4, 3.12 ERA) vs. Taylor Widener (RHP | 1-1, 4.89 ERA)

Kim Davis, the county clerk in Kentucky who will not issue marriage licenses to anyone because, she says, she cannot in good conscience issue them to same-sex couples is being sharply criticized for lawlessness and abuse of her office.
Consider a few of the precedents for her conduct:
‐In 2004, Mayor Gavin Newsom of San Francisco directed city officials to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples, in defiance of California state law.
‐In 2004, Mayor Jason West of New Paltz directed city officials to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples, in defiance of New York state law.
‐In 2010, attorney general Jerry Brown declined to answer legal challenges to California’s marriage law, which, after Proposition 8, was that “only marriage between a man and a woman is valid.” His job was to represent the state of California in legal matters and defend its laws, including those he didn’t like.
‐In 2013, D. Bruce Hanes, an official of Montgomery County, began issuing marriage licenses to same-sex couples, in defiance of Pennsylvania state law.
The history of the movement to redefine marriage is shot through with defiance of laws that those who broke them sincerely felt were deeply wrong. To be consistent, anyone who thinks that Newsom, West, Brown, and Hanes were courageous and principled must now judge Davis by the same standard.


School is starting, a new COVID-19 variant is circulating, and cases are rising. These circumstances have become all too familiar to educators and families.
But what does it mean for schools now, when major national and international health agencies have declared the health emergency over, if not the pandemic?
Many Americans have moved on from taking pandemic-related precautions and are, frankly, sick of them. At the same time, educators are feeling pressure to catch kids up academically as student achievement continues to lag after the pandemic severely interrupted their learning.
In a sign of how much schools’ approaches to the pandemic have changed, the Los Angeles Unified School District, which for much of the pandemic had some of the strictest COVID-19 safety policies, has eased its recommendations for when students should stay home.
The district, which is trying to reduce high rates of chronic absenteeism, told parents this week that they can send their children to school even if they have a mild cold or cough. District officials say students should still stay home, though, if they have a fever or test positive for COVID-19.
LAUSD, America’s second largest school district, may also relax its rules requiring employees to get a COVID-19 vaccine, according to the Los Angeles Times. That requirement, the paper reports, led to the departures of 700 employees at a time when districts nationwide were struggling to fill positions.
A new variant—technically a subvariant of omicron officially classified as EG.5 and colloquially called “Eris”—has become the dominant strain of COVID-19 in the United States and has been categorized by the World Health Organization as a “variant of interest.” The subvariant might be more contagious than previous mutations of the virus, but it appears to still only cause mild illness in most cases. In a public health announcement, the WHO described the public health risk caused by EG.5 as low based on the data the organization has seen.
Likely fueled by the new strain, COVID-19 cases are also rising, based on wastewater surveillance and hospitalization numbers, the latter of which still remain far below previous peaks in January and last summer.
How schools should approach COVID-19 safety as school starts
While health officials are now treating COVID as a disease like the common cold or flu, that doesn’t mean that school officials and families shouldn’t continue to take some precautions, said Kate King, the president of the National Association of School Nurses.
“The first thing that schools need to do, and school nurses are a key point of communication in this, is make sure that they contact their local health department before school starts to know what they are seeing in terms of cases locally, in terms of hospitalizations locally, or deaths,” she said, “and look to them on the guidance on what schools should look for in terms of symptom management and anything related to COVID.”
Schools should continue to emphasize basic tried-and-true hygienic practices, said King.
“We want to go back to what we called during COVID ‘mitigation strategies,’ but they’re ‘always’ strategies,” said King. Those include “hand washing, making sure to cover coughs and sneezes, hydrating, good nutrition, and good sleep, those simple things. But doing all of that is what can keep us all healthy, safe, and ready to learn.”
The last time COVID-19 surged, in January 2023, some districts went so far as to temporarily require students to mask or test negative with an at-home COVID-19 test before returning to school.
While we’ve come a long way from 2020 when a runny nose could get a student quickly sent home to take a COVID test, it’s still true that some sick students are better off at home.
In fact, schools should encourage families to keep their kids home if they have symptoms of more severe illness, said King. Even though schools might be feeling a lot of pressure to have kids in the classroom and learning as much as possible, it’s still best for everyone for a sick kid to stay home.
If higher attendance is what schools are after, said King, encouraging sniffling and coughing children to come to school might be counterproductive.
“The risk you’re taking of transmitting that disease so that more children are out sick, or that child does not recover as fast and it therefore affects their learning … may actually come back to haunt you later because more of your staff and students get ill,” she said.
Vaccines, of course, remain the strongest tool for preventing COVID-19, especially the more severe outcomes from the disease.
While many educators got vaccinated at least initially when shots became available, vaccination rates among children—especially the youngest—have lagged significantly behind those of adults.
Educators are a highly vaccinated group. A survey in 2021 from the EdWeek Research Center found that about 87 percent of teachers had received the vaccine. A May 2022 survey by the EdWeek Research Center found that 7 in 10 teachers, principals, and district leaders had gotten a COVID-19 booster shot.
Nationally COVID-19 vaccination rates among school-age children have stalled, according to a report from the Kaiser Family Foundation. As of May, around 33 percent of 5- to 11-year-old children had completed the two-dose COVID vaccine series while 62 percent of 12- to 17-year-olds were fully vaccinated.
An updated version of the COVID-19 vaccine and booster shots that are specific to more recent strains of the virus should be available for children and adults by October.

According to the official reports from the Kroger company as they have recently celebrated the ribbon-cutting ceremony. While Governor Mike DeWine was in attendance for the official ribbon-cutting ceremony at the new $55 million, 335,000-square-foot Kroger fulfilment centre in Monroe. The newly built centre will employ 400 people and already has several hundred small robots circling the facility that delivers groceries.
Now, you must be wondering what exactly is the customer fulfillment center? said Kroger’s director of communications, Crystal Howard. “From a customer perspective, all you need to know is how to get your grocery purchases through the Kroger product delivery service,” either through the kroger.com or the Kroger app. But using exclusive technology from the British-based online retailer Ocado Group, the facility is so technologically advanced that no photography was allowed during the tours after the ribbon-cutting ceremony. The complex began operations in early March and has already delivered more than 30,000 orders.

And obviously, Monroe is part of that too.” In addition, company officials praised the state, its Job Oyo Development Organization, and Ready Group Cincinnati Development in southwest Ohio for choosing the site.

Trade events Poland: ITM – Europe meets in Poznań
Nearly half of the exhibitors at the ITM Poland trade fair are foreign companies. The extensive representation of countries such as China, France, India, Germany and Italy means that the fair is considered one of the most important trade events in Europe.
The Innovation – Technology – Machinery fair (abbreviated to ITM Poland), taking place in Poznań on 7-10 June 2016, is the Polish answer to the Hanover Fair in Germany. Last year, the trade show saw nearly 1000 exhibitors and representatives of companies from 27 countries, while the booths were visited by nearly 17,000 visitors from 23 countries of the world. In 2015, the total exhibition area exceeded 21,000 m2 and was divided into 9 pavilions presenting subsequent stages of manufacture of modern products – from the concept and design stage, through treatment, cutting, moulding, welding and painting, to transport and work safety issues. This year, the organisers expect to repeat this result. The fair in June promises to set a new record – in terms of the number of both exhibitors and visitors.
Correlation between science and technology
The ITM Poland fair mainly addresses at representatives of sectors related to broadly understood as metal treatment. A large share of the machinery and devices presented are solutions dedicated to the transport, automotive, surface treatment, railway, smelting, metallurgy, varnish and OHS sectors.
But that is not all: apart from popular machinery solutions, the exhibition halls of the Poznań International Fair will feature the creations of engineers, design teams and scientific units. For them, the ITM fair offers an opportunity to verify theoretical concepts confronted with industrial practice, while entrepreneurs are able to increase the efficiency of their devices, optimise the operation of their plants and increase the market appeal of their companies by implementing innovative solutions. Therefore, the event in Poznań creates a successful fusion of industry, business and science, opening the doors to creating smart factories in the spirit of the Industry 4.0 concept.
Metal in the limelight
The industrial scope of the fair covers six thematic sections: Mach-Tool (machines and tools), Surfex (surface treatment), Hape (hydraulics, pneumatics, drives), Metalforum (metallurgy, steel industry, metal industry), Welding and Science for the Economy (scientific output of research institutes).

George, you will be greatly missed!
on 5 October 2013
It is with deep sadness that I learned today of the death of George Duke last August from leukaemia, a little over a year after he lost his wife to cancer.
A Brazilian Love Affair is a fine album and a fitting tribute to the man and the musician. Duke had for several years worked with Brazilian artists Airto Moreira and Flora Purim and clearly loved Brazilian music. When he flew to Rio to record this ode to a country and a music he loved, he brought them with him to work alongside great Brazilian singer and songwriter Milton Nascimento. The music falls between at least three stools with strong funk elements that thankfully are always balanced with good taste, strong helpings of jazz, but enough music thanks very much to Nascimento's contribution to justify the use of the word `Brazil' in the record's title.
What shines from this record apart from Duke's love of Brazil, is the lushness and the real intelligence of Duke's arrangements, his virtuosity both as a player and producer, and the real empathy of all the players involved. The result is an album which so easily could have ended up badly with a lesser performers being little short of a triumph.
A very fine record indeed and, I'm sorry to have to put it this way, a fitting tribute to a man who will be sadly missed

This project aims to develop a technology-based solution that gives people opportunity to realize a way of transportation in which cargo platform keeps horizontal position during all time, for example, if we put a glass full of water on the platform it won’t be spilled even if transportation is quite dynamic. Multipurpose Platform Stabilization System (MPSS) consists of 3D printed construction, commutatorless motors and electronics. Mathematical algorithms that were used in the project's software work on a series of measurements observed over time, containing statistical noise and other inaccuracies of gyroscope and accelerometer sensors ,and produces estimates of unknown variables that tend to be more accurate than those based on a single measurement alone. Commutatorless motors were used in the project because these types of motors are highly efficient in producing large amount of torque over a vast speed range. Project faced with the challenge of dealing with a three-phase high-power system that demands precise control to run efficiently. An independent damper system was constructed to reduce natural vibrations of the cargo platform that were detected by a vibrometer. A buggy-type chassis was designed and built in order to do controllable testing of system and perform the intended task. Using electronic level and special measurement software was revealed that system suggests a high level of stabilization accuracy because the range of angular vibration didn't exceeded 4.2 degrees. The results of testing have shown that mathematical filtration of incoming signals is on appropriate level. However, further research is needed to increase the system's functionality and to improve its performance.
