Claims and rehabilitation guidance for employers
If an employee is injured at work or has a work-related illness that results in an absence from work, it is important that they return to their normal work as quickly as possible in a way that protects and promotes their health.
Role of employers in claims and rehabilitation
As an employer, you are the central player in both the claims management process and the rehabilitation and return to work process, in accordance with the Seafarers Rehabilitation and Compensation Act 1992 (Seafarers Act).
The maritime industry has some unique factors which can impact rehabilitation and return-to-work performance including the mobile and remote nature of our workplaces, attitudinal factors, difficulty in arranging graduated return to work opportunities and the availability of suitable employment alternatives.
Despite these factors, we know that the approach of employers toward employees who are injured at work or have a work-related illness combined with effective management of the process can significantly impact the duration and cost of a claim and the prospects of a successful and durable return to work.
Your role in ensuring a quick and full recovery and an early return to work can be greatly assisted by performing your key responsibilities as an employer and other support strategies.
Make claims forms available
Employees should be able to obtain claim forms from the master of the ship or from their employer.
- Claim for Workers’ Compensation (Seacare form 3)
- Claim for Permanent Impairment and Non-Economic Loss and/or Related Aids (Seacare form 4)
- Claim for Compensation by Dependants of Deceased Employee (Seacare form 5).
Claims forms are also available from Seacare. See our forms page.
If the employee is having difficulty completing a claim form, you should encourage them to seek assistance and they should be able to seek assistance from you, as their employer.
Work with your insurer
Scheme insurances play an important role in the compensation, rehabilitation and return to work process. It is important that you meet the requirements of your policy and communicate with your insurer.
Understand your insurance policy
It is important that you fully appreciate and understand the obligations, benefits and services available under your insurance policy to maximise the value of the policy. This is especially true because workers’ compensation insurance costs are a significant element of labour costs.
It is important to work closely with your insurer to ensure that the services available under your insurance policy are maximised in the interests of a speedy and safe return to work and that the employee receives the optimum treatment and rehabilitation support.
Advise insurer of a new claim
If an employee lodges a workers’ compensation claim, you should immediately advise your insurer and forward them a copy of the claim as soon as it is received. This should be done even when you expect that the claim cost will fall below your claim excess.
This ensures that:
- the insurer is alerted that it could expect a claim if the cost ultimately exceeds the excess and you make a call on the policy
- the insurer develops a full understanding of your claim history and of the injured employee. This supports improved communication between employer and insurer on claim costs and cost control strategies, and also helps establish a strong working relationship.
- the insurer’s expertise in determining claims can be used.
Use the insurer’s expertise
Insurers have claim and injury management expertise that employers may call upon.
Often the insurer may be able to suggest an appropriate rehabilitation provider that has successfully achieved positive return to work outcomes for other employers.
An insurer’s advice could lead to you adopting rehabilitation and return to work strategies not previously considered, resulting in an earlier or more durable return to work and, ultimately, lower insurance premium costs.
Determine claims made by employees
The employer is responsible for determining claims, in the Seacare scheme.
Responsibility for determinations
As the employer, you are responsible for deciding whether workers’ compensation claims and subsequent claims for benefits and support should be accepted. You are also responsible for ensuring that decisions are made within statutory timeframes.
Employers can, and often do, delegate this power to a claims manager. Any action made on a claim by a delegated person is considered to be an action by the employer.
Insurance companies are also often involved in deciding and managing a claim for workers’ compensation, as employers in the Seacare scheme are required to have workers’ compensation insurance.
Sometimes, insurance policies contain provisions that give the insurer the right to decide whether to accept or reject the employee’s injury claim. You should consult your insurance policy to see if this is the case before making any determination.
Process for determination
On receiving a claim, you can be liable for any injury or disease, death and loss or damage to property suffered by the employee that arises out of, or in the course of, their employment. You may also be liable for any continuing medical expenses, and household and attendant care services reasonably required out of the injury or illness.
You must decide the claim for workers’ compensation and any subsequent claims for benefits or supports within 12 calendar days from the day you receive the claim, unless an extension of time has been granted. You must also provide notice in writing of any decisions made.
Principles for decision-making
In making a determination under the Seafarers Act, you should have regard for the following principles:
- Ensure that all decisions made are lawful—this includes making sure that decisions are made by correctly authorised and qualified people, that correct legal procedures are followed, that reasoning conforms with minimum legal standards, and that a decision maker is accountable for a decision and has notified the person of their right to a review.
- Decisions conform to the principles of natural justice—this includes ensuring the employee affected by the decision has been given the opportunity to express their views and have them considered (hearing rule), the decision is based on logical and probative evidence (evidence rule) and that the decision maker is impartial and has no personal stake in the matter (bias rule).
- Decisions are based on evidence with findings of facts—this includes determining all material questions of fact that are necessary for making a decision, not basing a decision on a fact without evidence and ensuring that every finding of fact is based on evidence that is relevant and logical to support the finding.
- Provide reasons for all decisions—this includes providing a statement of reasons and explanation for all decisions, informing the person of their rights to review and appeal, and ensuring notes and files are kept for every decision made.
- Decisions are timely—this includes ensuring decisions are made within the required timeframes, and requests for extensions of time and further information are made promptly.
Extension of time
You may request an extension of time from the Seacare Authority if you require additional time to make a decision. This request must be made before the time limit expires. If the Seacare Authority denies your request for an extension, you may seek a review of this decision by the Administrative Appeals Tribunal (AAT).
The time limit may also be extended if you require further information or a document in order to make a determination. You must notify the employee in writing before the time limit is reached that further information or a document is required. Examples of further information include medical certificates and witness statements.
Notification of decision
Once you have determined the claim, you must notify the employee of the decision.
Until you accept a workers’ compensation claim, compensation is not payable and a benefit cannot be claimed by the employee.
Follow the reconsideration process
If an employee is unhappy with a determination, they can request a review of your determination.
Generally speaking, employees have the same rights of review of determinations on benefits and entitlements as they do for their initial determination of liability which is decided as part of the compensation claim.
Process for review
If an employee requests a reconsideration of a claim decision, you must arrange for a Comcare officer or an Industry Panel to assist you with the reconsideration decision (at present, no Industry Panels operate in the Seacare jurisdiction). This request must be made in reasonable time to allow for the reconsideration assistance to be provided.
We also recommend that the person who made the first decision not be the person making the reconsideration. This ensures a fresh perspective and procedural fairness in reconsidering the claim.
You may request additional information regarding the employee’s injury. If the employee refuses to provide this information, without reasonable excuse, the employer may refuse to progress the reconsideration further. The employee may also submit any additional information that may assist with the determination of the claim.
You have 60 days from receipt of a request to reconsider the claim.
You may request an extension of this deadline from the Seacare Authority. Any such request must be made prior to the end of the 60-day period.
Notification of decision
Once the review is complete, the Comcare officer provides a report of the recommendations to both the employer and employee. You should ensure a copy of the report is provided to your insurer if applicable.
Once the reconsideration is complete, you are required to issue a written notice affirming, revoking or varying the initial determination.
You must provide the employee:
- a notice in writing setting out the terms of the decision and the reasons for the decision
- a brief statement outlining their rights to lodge an appeal with the Administrative Appeals Tribunal (AAT) for review of the decision.
Employers, their insurers and contracted service providers should implement file management and recordkeeping procedures to provide evidence of why a determination was made and to assist in management of the claim. Where you make a decision regarding a claim, you must document the reasons for the decision.
In managing an employee’s claim, there are requirements and best practice principles that employers should follow.
These include to:
- assess the injured employee’s needs at an early stage and direct them to any necessary and appropriate support (including medical and rehabilitation support)
- regularly review the needs of the injured employee and provide the appropriate support
- where an employee has time off work, provide support in assisting them to return to work quickly and safely—including, where necessary, making any reasonable changes to workplace arrangements to assist them in their return
- where necessary, nominate a rehabilitation case manager as soon as possible to aid the employee’s rehabilitation and return to work
- provide the injured employee with all necessary information about workers’ compensation, including contact information and where to access forms
- communicate with the employee in a timely manner about their claim
- maintain confidentiality of the employee’s personal information—information should only be used for the purpose of assessing and managing the workers’ compensation claim, rehabilitation and return to work
- keeping employees informed of their rights and responsibilities and setting clearly defined milestones in preparation for return to work
- assessing employee needs quickly and directing them to necessary and appropriate support.
Arrange an assessment of capacity
Employers are required to assess the capability of an employee with a work-related injury or illness who has been absent from work for 28 days or more (or who is expected to be absent for 28 days or more) to undertake a rehabilitation program.
The assessment must be made by:
- a legally qualified medical practitioner
- other suitably qualified person, such as an approved program provider, or
- panel of such persons.
The report provided is the assessment.
The employer must pay for the assessment.
Employees are required to attend the examination of their capacity to undergo rehabilitation. If they do not, without a reasonable excuse, their right to compensation or other benefits may be suspended.
Select an approved rehabilitation provider
If an employee is assessed as capable of undergoing a rehabilitation program, you must speak with them about the selection of a rehabilitation provider and the development of an appropriate rehabilitation program.
Discussion with the employee must occur before arranging a provider or rehabilitation program.
You must select a rehabilitation provider that has been approved by Comcare and is recognised by the Seacare Authority to provide rehabilitation programs. This accreditation ensures that the provider’s service is of an acceptable standard and complies with accepted practices within the profession. See a list of approved rehabilitation providers.
Other rehabilitation services provided by, or suggested by, an approved rehabilitation provider can also help employees to return to work as soon as possible. Services may include vocational assessment, guidance, training/retraining, counselling and placement assistance. They may also include medical, dental, psychiatric and hospital services (whether on an in-patient or out-patient basis), physical training and exercise, physiotherapy, or occupational therapy.
You may ask a rehabilitation provider to provide advice or services. The provider, in consultation with the employee’s treating medical practitioner, can give expert advice to you on the options available to help the employee recover from their injury as a pre-condition for a return to work.
Employers are also responsible for monitoring the performance of a workplace rehabilitation provider and must inform Seacare Authority of any service delivery concerns.
Arrange a rehabilitation program
A rehabilitation program is developed to assist an employee to safely remain at or return to work as soon as possible and to encourage an employee’s full physical and mental recovery.
It can cover matters such as goals for recovery, recovery and return to work time frames, expected or planned outcomes, medical and support services, and costs.
A program may include:
- vocational assessment
- training or retraining
- placement assistance
- medical, dental, psychiatric and hospital services, whether on an in-patient or out-patient basis
- physical training and exercise
- occupational therapy
- vocational training.
If key parties agree, a return to work plan may also be developed.
If an employee is assessed as capable of undertaking a rehabilitation program, as the employer you must:
- arrange for a Comcare-approved rehabilitation provider to develop an appropriate rehabilitation program
- consult the employee in the development of the program and ensure they understand that they are participating in a rehabilitation program
- ensure that any rehabilitation program is tailored to the employee’s individual needs
- ensure the employee is provided with a copy of the proposed program for comment before the program is finalised
- make sure the program is well coordinated, accountable and results oriented
- monitor the rehabilitation program and be involved in all decisions relating to costs and services
- ensure there is effective closure on the rehabilitation program.
You should also visit or contact the employee at home to provide support and demonstrate the company’s commitment to their recovery and return to work.
The cost of any rehabilitation program must be paid by you, as the employer.
Employees are required to attend the rehabilitation program. If they do not, without a reasonable excuse, their right to compensation or other benefits may be suspended.
Employers and operators covered by the Seacare scheme have a range of statutory reporting requirements and must provide certain information to the Seacare Authority, in accordance with the Seafarers Act. Penalties apply for non-compliance.
- Workers' compensation insurance arrangements
- Claims reporting
- Claims determination reporting
- Claim Update reports
- Berths and Levy Return reporting.
See Employer reporting obligations for more information about how to report and when.
Support a positive return to work plan
A return to work plan is a documented plan that matches the employee’s capabilities and limitations to assist them to return to work.
Return to work process
The plan is developed in consultation with the employee and their medical practitioner and with input from the approved rehabilitation provider. It should be approved by the treating medical practitioner.
As the employer, you should:
- ensure the return to work plan is agreed by the employee
- ensure the employee understands that they are participating in a return to work plan
- advise the treating medical practitioner and approved rehabilitation provider about the availability of suitable employment or graduated return to work opportunities
- find alternative suitable employment while the employee is unable to return to sea
- ensure a supportive environment in the work area to which the employee will return
- assist the employee to restore self-image and reduce any stress associated with readjustment to the work environment or injury
- aim towards returning the employee to pre-injury or similar work if practical.
Find suitable employment options
Employers must take all reasonable steps to provide employees who are undergoing or have completed a rehabilitation program with suitable employment or to help them find suitable employment.
Suitable employment is any employment, including self-employment, for which an employee is suitable considering:
- the employee’s age
- the employee’s experience
- the employee’s training
- the employee’s language
- the employee’s other skills
- the employee’s suitability for rehabilitation or vocational retraining
- the likelihood that employment would reasonably require the employee to change their place of residence
- any other relevant matters.
Graduated return to work
In some instances, a graduated return to work may be an option and should be considered. This is suitable employment performed for a temporary period as part of the rehabilitation process as a way of preparing the employee for a return to pre-injury employment. An example is employment as a supernumerary on board a ship or part-time work on shore
If graduated return to work opportunities are available on shore they could be pursued as a part-time work on a limited number of hours or as partial duties.
If graduated return to work is recommended at sea, it may be as a supernumerary on board a ship. A supernumerary position is a short-term additional berth or position, funded by the employer or insurer, to enable an employee to return to work at sea on a graduated basis, at an earlier stage than might normally be the case, as part of the rehabilitation program.
Examples of possible duties at sea are:
- canteen or cooking duties in a supernumerary capacity
- assistance on deck or in the engine room under supervision in a supernumerary capacity
- bridge watch in a supernumerary capacity
- placement in a training course where there are clear benefits recognised by both the employer and the seafarer
- a trainer in a supernumerary capacity
- other duties as approved by the treating medical practitioner and the seafarer’s rehabilitation provider.
If the employee declines the offer of a job as part of a rehabilitation program on board a ship or on shore without good reason, their rights to compensation payments might be suspended.
Long-term injury or illness
If the injury is severe and there is no clear indication that the employee will return to work at sea, then suitable onshore employment, including retraining opportunities, should be explored. The employer is required to take reasonable steps to find, or assist in finding, suitable employment for the employee.
In this situation, the employer should determine whether suitable employment can be found on shore with the same employer and in the industry. If not, then the employer is obliged to help the employee find suitable employment with another employer, whether inside or outside the industry.
Closure of program and claim
Before returning to work at sea, an employee must be certified as medically fit for the duties to be performed in employment. The employee will need to obtain a certificate of medical fitness from an Australian Maritime Safety Authority (AMSA) medical inspector of seamen.
A medical inspector conducts examinations, tests and interviews, and makes whatever enquiries may be appropriate, to determine whether the employee is medically fit to perform the intended duties. When determining medical fitness, a medical inspector must follow the Standards for the Medical Examination of Seafarers and Coastal Pilots set out in Marine Order 76 (Health — medical fitness) 2017. These guidelines constitute a checklist for the medical inspector when making a determination of medical fitness.
Employers may have more stringent guidelines developed by an occupational physician. Such guidelines will reflect the nature of the jobs and any specific equipment operated. When such guidelines exist, they must be followed.
Medical inspectors are appointed by the Australian Maritime Safety Authority (AMSA). Enquiries regarding medical inspectors and associated standards should be made through the AMSA offices listed on the AMSA website.
If after returning to work, the employee notifies you or the ship’s master that they notice discomfort or aggravation to their injury or illness, the employee may need to seek medical attention. If their return to work is unsuccessful because their condition was aggravated or they sustained further injury, they may need to stop work and return to workers’ compensation until ﬁt for work.
Employers and operators covered by the Seacare scheme have a range of statutory reporting requirements and must provide certain information to the Seacare Authority, in accordance with the Seafarers Act.
Penalties apply for non-compliance.
- Workers' compensation insurance arrangements
- Claims reporting
- Claims determination reporting
- Claim Update reports
- Berths and Levy Return reporting.
See Employer reporting obligations for more information about how to report and when.
Best practice involves early intervention
While the Seafarers Act requires employers to assess the capability of an employee with a work-related injury or illness who has been absent from work for 28 days or more (or who is expected to be absent for 28 days or more) to undertake a rehabilitation program, this provision is a statutory minimum.
It is now widely accepted that best practice requires intervention earlier than 28 days, and that the earlier that intervention begins the greater the chances of a successful and durable return to work.
Adopting better rehabilitation practices increases productivity in the workplace, facilitates employees’ return to optimum health and assists in the efficient management of scheme costs.
If an employee has a work-related illness or injury that results in an absence from work, it is important that they return to their normal work as quickly as possible and in a way that protects and promotes their health. It is well established that early intervention helps early recovery.
- prevents long-term absence from the workplace
- demonstrates management commitment to the employee
- increases the probability of a durable return to work
- contains the costs of incapacity, and in the longer term the insurance premium or claim cost
- promotes staff confidence and morale.
Practicing early intervention
Practicing early intervention means you should:
- meet with the injured employee on arrival at port, ensuring proper medical treatment is provided
- notify the employee’s family
- provide the injured employee with a compensation claim form to complete and lodge, as well as information from the Seacare Authority
- commence rehabilitation as soon as possible after an injury
- ensure that an employee who is likely to be off work for 28 days or more is assessed for their capability to undertake a rehabilitation program
- inform employees, their treating medical practitioner and rehabilitation providers about your organisation’s rehabilitation and return to work policy
- communicate with the treating medical practitioner regarding the employee’s rehabilitation program and return to work opportunities
- engage an approved rehabilitation provider if the employee is assessed as likely to benefit from a rehabilitation program.
For more information:
- see the Comcare early intervention checklist.
- consult Seafarers Rehabilitation and Return to Work Best Practice guide (PDF, 829.0 KB).
Developing a supportive workplace culture
A supportive workplace culture assists rehabilitation and return to work.
Successful rehabilitation relies on consultation and cooperation. A workplace culture that responds positively to workplace injury in an effective and supportive way is an important foundation for successful rehabilitation.
Senior managers are in a position to make a commitment to ensure that workplace injuries, absenteeism and lost productivity are kept to a minimum. Managerial commitment should be highly visible and proper processes should be followed. It is important that this becomes part of an organisation’s culture and accepted practice.
- adopt a policy and guidelines on rehabilitation and return to work practice and procedures for the company
- develop and encourage a workplace and corporate culture that supports rehabilitation and early return to work
- appoint a relevant and experienced company official to take responsibility for the rehabilitation process. This person could be known as the rehabilitation and return to work coordinator
- develop a practice of regular and frequent contact with employees who are or are likely to be absent for extended periods as a means of maintaining links with the workplace – this helps to demonstrate that the employee and their contribution to work is valued
- provide management support for the rehabilitation program and return to work plan
- develop an understanding of rehabilitation services – when, why and how they should be used.

A mystery disease is eating away at the sabal palm, Florida’s state tree, and scientists say the prospects of successfully fighting the disease are slim. The AP reports that an increasing number of the trees, which can grow up to 50 feet tall, have suffered collapsed canopies. "There's going to be fewer palms,” one state pathologist said.
Scientists face two difficulties in combating the tree-killer: They must first identify the disease, and then identify its insect vector. Even after that, stopping the insects could take resources the state doesn’t have, especially as the economic downturn has slowed funds to the main agricultural science center at the University of Florida, which is researching the pathogen.

SINGAPORE — Explaining how smoke from a fire could spread through the entire Terminal 2 building of Changi Airport and forced a mass evacuation, building and aviation experts told TODAY that the open design of the terminal is a contributing factor.
They added that the room holding air-conditioning equipment — where the fire started — should have been better monitored. This is because any fire there could cause smoke to be channelled quickly through the vents to other parts of the airport.
Aviation expert Dr Terence Fan, from the Singapore Management University, said that the Changi Airport Group could learn from the incident on Tuesday (May 16) and watch over such equipment rooms more closely, “so that any fire or suspicious activities can be spotted right away”.
As for the open interior design, this is seen in many modern airports.
Assistant Professor Sam Conrad Joyce, who teaches architecture and sustainable design at the Singapore University of Technology and Design, said that these airports usually have a sequence of large spaces to allow human traffic to move and navigate freely. Yet, these large spaces can hinder “fire-zoning” — a method typically used to control smoke by creating spaces that can be isolated from each other, and to reduce impact.
“However, the benefits of an open design outweigh the fire problems, given the infrequency of such events,” Dr Joyce said. “This issue is not special to Changi Airport, and it seems that they were able to resolve the problem expediently.”
Dr Joyce explained that it would be easier to clear out smoke from malls because they tend to be more vertical in layout, allowing smoke to travel up and away from users, as compared to the horizontal space in airports.
On the airport management closing the terminal and evacuating people, the experts agreed that it was a wise decision. With the huge amount of smoke circulating, the management had to look to the worst-case scenario.
With heightened terror alerts around the world, Dr Fan said the airport had to ensure that the fire “was not a decoy or part of a larger plot”.
Temasek Polytechnic’s Gary Ho, a senior lecturer with its aviation management and services diploma course, said that closing the terminal was not “about being kiasu”. If the airport management did not act quickly and the fire turned out to be worse, the consequences would be far greater, he added.
“Many lives are involved here, and they didn’t want to take that risk.”
While the airport did a “great job” providing updates on the situation on social media, Mr Ho said that communication between the airport and the stranded passengers could be further improved, to give timely updates on their flights.

NMN powder at https://www.cofttek.com/product/nmn-powder/ is known as nicotinamide Mononucleotide, and it’s advertised for the youth and also based on the anti- aging effects which is observed by the preliminary research.
What is NMN (Nicotinamide Mononucleotide)?
NMN basically belongs to the nucleotides with organic molecules and is found in most foods we eat. In the NMN we have three parts
- Nitrogenous Base
- Phosphate Group
Most probably nucleotides are used to build DNA, NMN and it is also used for the adenine dinucleotide which is also known as NAD, it is used for the energy balance. If the NMN level is higher than NAD level it will also be higher.
NAD also increases the ATP, it means energy currency which balances rhythm. It also enables the hundreds of other enzymatic reactions. And from it many delay aging. This NAD or NAD contains powder to reduce the tissues of aging.
What does this powder do?
It slows aging, improves diabetes, improves metabolic rate, it also supports kidney, heart health and we never observed any side effects of these.
Is NMD also found in food sources?
Most human cells do not directly import NAD but they create it on the inside. On the other hand if we talk about liver, pancreas or fatty issues then these cells enter very quickly. NMN is so fast, within the 15 min it’s distributed the tissues and then it converts it into the NAD.
Some of the food sources are Edamame, Broccoli, cucumbers, cabbage and tomatoes. Mostly it’s found in the vegetables but all the time you can’t eat the vegetable so you can use the powder in the place of vegetables.
If we talk about our body it normally uses NMN to make the NAD and it mostly drives the energy metabolism.
Benefits of NMN
The level of NAD in the body naturally declines aging and its help to cells & organs to start functions less effectively. The low level of NAD is associated with the multiple age related to diseases.
- Anti – Aging: The powder which contains NAD will slow down the aging and also delay the age related disease in the human. It also improves the brain & nervous system, liver, vasculature, heart, lymphoid tissue, reproductive organs, kidney, pancreas, muscles and adipose tissues.
- Telomere Length: Telomeres are long tails which repeat the code of DNA and also end the chromosomes. We all know that chromosomes duplicate itself. And NMN increased these tails in liver cells.

If seeking out a remedy for Vein dysfunction, there are still a few impressive options that are useful for those looking for a way to eliminate the visible veins in addition to their side effects. With private research and a trusted vein physician, treatments are potential. To treat spider and varicose veins, patients now have the choice of minimally invasive treatments that involve simple shots, using lasers, and catheters for more complex dysfunction. Along with these, medical specialists are finding different ways to take care of veins in a way which helps get patients back to their regular lives in little time. There are currently a range of valid choices that patients need to spend some time exploring. Most patients will notice that performing private research on their own is an excellent way to find out more about what processes are accessible and which procedures give the best solution to their specific circumstance.
Since every individual is unique, it is a terrific idea to seek out information so the patient can approach a first consultation with some notion of what they are trying to find.Varicose and spider veins are actually quite common and a large Number of people have some sort of vein disorder in their lives sooner or later. This is particularly true in the western areas of the world and a number of the issue was attributed to poor dietary habits together with a lack of actual physical fitness. It is so important to examine how your lifestyle may result in venous health dysfunction and how it is possible to implement modifications to encourage healthy and fully operational veins. 1 issue in regard to diet is weight reduction and undue pressures on the veins of their legs and other areas of the body.
Though spider and varicose veins can be linked to Heredity, some patients can help maintain vein health by maintaining a healthy weight. This is also linked to physical fitness that helps to keep a healthy heart and cardiovascular system. This then supports strong and healthy veins. As we get older, the vein wall or liner can weaken and this is a normal part of aging with time. Yet we can help maintain a healthy heart through focus on diet and exercise. This is quite important and may diminish the probability of acquiring venous dysfunction in time.There are a number of minimally invasive choices Nowadays, including injections, laser treatments, and catheter treatments which involve minimal if any invasive therapy and some patients do not even require anaesthesia. They may be performed in under one hour, allowing patients to return to work and their other regular activities in small time. It is thus imperative that individuals find out which option suits them best.

Watching the marathon U.S. Presidential campaign meant witnessing constant squabbles, endless streams of attack ads and any number of undignified moments, Vermont voters said as they cast ballots and watched election returns come in Tuesday.
When television networks declared Barack Obama the winner at around 11:30 p.m. Tuesday, the reaction in Burlington was cheerful enough, but much more subdued than the raucous celebrations that greeted news of Obama’s 2008 election.
At the Church Street Tavern, four patrons and the bartender let out a quiet cheer as they watched Comedy Central’s Steven Colbert say that CNN had projected Obama as the winner.
“I’m glad I don’t have to watch political ads anymore,” said the bartender, Matt Saladin of Burlington.
Seated at the bar, Kelsey Richardson of Burlington declared herself happy with Obama winning. “Just to see him be able to be president without having to worry about re-election,” she said. “I’m very excited. I’m very excited for the next four years.”
As she spoke, Saladin prepared to close the bar for the night, joking that he wanted to lock the doors before excited Obama fans took over downtown Burlington, as they did in 2008.
There seemed little chance of that. Thumping music and whoops erupted from Red Square, but that seemed to have more to do with the featured DJ, Craig Mitchell, than the presidential election.
A lone male voice on Church Street yelled “Obama!” but nobody responded, minutes after television networks declared him the winner. A few faint cheers drifted from a few downtown nightspots as televisions news crews reported Obama’s win. At Finnegans, two televisions showed election news, and one showed a basketball game. None of the dozen or so people inside did anything more than glance at the televisions.
Earlier in the day, Vermont voters said it was their duty, even their pleasure, to bat back their weariness with the campaign cacophony to pick either Barack Obama or Mitt Romney to guide the nation through perilous economic and geopolitical seas over the next four years. In the end, both Vermont and the United States chose Obama.
“I was kind of upset and disappointed with all the negativity,” said Jack Lindsay of Milton, emerging from the Milton Municipal Building at mid-afternoon Tuesday after casting his ballot for Obama.
As he spoke, people gawked at a truck parked near the polling places with virulently anti-Obama signs and bumper stickers on it. One sticker read: “Obama: Why stupid people shouldn’t vote.”
“It doesn’t do any good to berate each other,” Lindsay said. That especially applies to presidential candidates. “Then they get into office and you’re supposed to respect them. If they had just stuck to the issues I would have been much happier,” Lindsay said.
Lindsay said he voted for Obama. “I think he deserves another four years. He’s done a great job,” he said.
While Vermont’s presidential results came in early, the outcome of the race remained in doubt until late into the evening. At Vermont’s GOP election night party in Montpelier, Republicans clung to hope that Romney would win.
“I just really feel that the economy was my most important factor and I feel like he is the most equipped to handle that situation,” said Janalee Willet of Barre City.
Another Vermont Romney backer, Don Wells of St. Albans, said the nation needs a business person in the White House. As Wells left a St. Albans Town polling place early Tuesday afternoon, he said he thought there was a 50-50 chance Romney would win. Then, he reconsidered, and conceded his belief that Obama had the edge.
Back in Milton, the man with the anti-Obama signs put sheets of paper under car windshields, detailing the reasons why he dislikes the president. He talked to some voters who were leaving the polls, who mostly just spoke briefly and politely to him, then left, seeming unwilling to engage in a lengthy political discussion.
Milton Town Clerk John Cushing shrugged. “It’s free speech,” he said.
Sam Hemingway, Candace Page, Molly Walsh and Terri Hallenbeck contributed to this report.


A 3D model of the process system and facility provides a foundation for generating layout, elevation and orthographic views of the process. Isometric piping drawings with bill-of-material can be generated to significantly reduce construction costs and change orders. Three-dimensional models are used for a virtual walk-through to gather valuable design feedback from safety, maintenance, operations and quality personnel. These reviews allow higher levels of design acceptance across the organization, another contribution to reduce construction and change order expenses.
Integrating the 3D process model with a detailed construction schedule allows 4D design –which adds the dimension of time. Planned demolition and construction can be viewed in a time-based virtual walk-through with all project stakeholders. This provides opportunity to find interferences and deal with problems in the design phase rather than during construction.

So, we thought this wee plot development, as reported by the Globe's Mark Hume, was interesting, from earlier in the week:
Former finance minister Gary Collins yesterday called on the Crown to release any police surveillance material it has of him from a 2003 meeting with U.S. business executives concerning the government sale of BC Rail.
Speaking through his lawyer, Clark Roberts, Mr. Collins said if the police did tape his meeting with OmniTRAX Inc., a company that failed in a bid for BC Rail, it should be made public because it will only prove that he did nothing wrong while handling the $1-billion sale of the state-owned rail line.
"If there is any surveillance, Mr. Collins says it should be disclosed because it will completely reveal that he wasn't involved [in any wrongdoing]," Mr. Roberts said.
But at the time, when that came out Tuesday, we didn't know to do it with it.
I guess, maybe, now we know why the good Mr. Roberts was trying to force the Crown's hand. This, also reported by Mr. Hume, from yesterday:
Defence lawyer Michael Bolton underscored the political nature of Mr. Basi's job and the "intimate" working relationship he had with Mr. Collins by reading wiretap transcripts in which the two men discussed political dirty tricks.
In one conversation, Mr. Basi tells his boss that former B.C. premier Bill Vander Zalm and then North Vancouver Mayor Barbara Sharp were going to be on a radio talk show.
"I wanted to have the mayor of Squamish call in and just rip Barbara Sharp a new asshole. . . is that okay?" Mr. Basi asks.
"Yeah, absolutely," replies Mr. Collins.
That's some innocuous media manipulation huh.
Bill Tieleman got a quote from Ms. Sharp in response - and it is very interesting, indeed.
Sharp told 24 hours the alleged comments are "quite a shocker."
"What a terrible way to talk about people. I don't know what they were so upset with me about except that I was trying to keep B.C. Rail in North Vancouver."
In other words - it appears that it was the intent to whack any and all persons that actually wanted to keep BC Rail for British Columbians (don't forget that just last month, the last remaining remnants of BC Rail in North Van were sold to Enron.....errrr.....KinderMorgan).
There's more - also reported by Mr. T.:
Later in the call Bolton quoted Collins to Basi: "I want you to keep this completely to yourself because there's only two of us who know about this."
Collins' spokesperson Clark Roberts left the court without speaking to reporters.
What a show!
We do have one question arising from this episode, however.
And that is......
Just who is paying the good Mr. Roberts to represent the former (and we stress former) public servant Mr. Collins?

Ah summer! Time for conferencing, summitting and gathering for organizers, activists, and left-leaning academics. New Labor Forum has done the hard work of curating some of the more important upcoming events on our radar that we think you’ll be interested in. While attending a conference is usually a major expense, increasingly the organizers are using livestreamed video and social media to make remote, online participation a reality. All of the events listed below are also agenda-setting opportunities for their constituencies, so it’s worth following to see what new thinking is emerging.
We’re not ranking by order of importance, and would love to see the events we missed that you think ought to be mentioned. We’ll be updating the link to this list with your suggestions here. Get ready to learn more about Left Forum, The People’s Summit, Allied Media Conference, the Labor and Working-Class History Conference, the Working-Class Studies Association Annual Conference, the National Urban League Conference, Netroots Nation, and the Personal Democracy Forum.
Left Forum. Formerly known as the Socialist Scholars Conference, this gathering of 4000 leftists has a very wide range of workshops and speakers. This year’s lineup includes Linda Sarsour, Molly Crabapple, Sekou Odinga, and Jeremy Scahill. Hundreds of panels and workshops over 3 days, as LF has an emphasis on ideological and movement diversity. (New York, June 2-4 leftforum.org, @LeftForum)
The People’s Summit. Now in it’s second year, this gathering of 4500 in Chicago features Bernie Sanders and the political constellation gathered behind him, including Our Revolution, National Nurses United, and Democratic Socialists of America. Prominent speakers include Bernie Sanders, Shawn King, Naomi Klein, and Nina Turner. This year’s focus is on political education workshops aimed at candidates and electoral organizers. (Chicago, June 9-11 thepeoplessummit.org, @pplsummit)
Allied Media Conference. Held every summer in Detroit, the conference brings together a vibrant and diverse community of people using media to incite change: filmmakers, radio producers, technologists, youth organizers, writers, entrepreneurs, musicians, dancers, and artists. They define “media” as anything you use to communicate with the world. Plenary speakers include Malkia Cyril, Alicia Garza, and Sterling Toles. AMC is visibly led by people of color, especially from grassroots community media and organizations. (Detroit, June 15-18 www.alliedmedia.org/amc, @AlliedMediaConf)
Labor Studies Conferences
Working-Class Studies Association Annual Conference. The WCSA 2017 conference seeks to take stock of the legacy, present, and future possibilities of the idea of “class struggle.” What does working class mean in an era of deindustrialization, precarious work, and predatory capital mobility? What new sites of working-class struggle can come to the fore with the weakening of trade unions and the erosion of the shop-floor and public space as places of working-class organization and contestation? Speakers include Michael Zweig, Maka Suarez, and Carmen Hernandez. (May 31-June 3, Indianapolis https://scholarworks.iu.edu/conferences/index.php/wcsa/WCSA17/schedConf/cfp)
2017 LAWCHA Conference: Scales of Struggle – Communities, Movements, and Global Connection. For four days, a diverse range of scholars, labor activists, teachers, artists, and labor educators will engage in a lively, probing discussion of the present moment and successes and failures of other times and places. They will consider how workers have created new forms of struggle ranging from work-based organization to social movements, from direct action to educational campaigns, from local alliances to transnational coalitions to meet these challenges. Presenters are largely from academia and include Joshua Freeman, Pablo Alverado, and Rebecca Fowler. (Seattle, June 22 – 25 lawcha.org/wordpress/annualmeeting/seattle-washington-2017, @lawcha_org)
Broad Political & Constituency Conferences
Personal Democracy Forum. This annual event ‘thinks bigger’ than many, looking at the relationship between technology, citizens, and our political system. Look forward to seeing top technologists, campaigners, hackers, government officials, journalists, opinion-makers, and academics for two days of game-changing talks, workshops, and networking opportunities – celebrating the power and potential of tech to make real change happen. Speakers include Jose Antonio Vargas, Faiz Shakir, Tufekci Zeynep and Catherine Bracy. (New York, June 8-9 pdf17.com)
National Urban League Conference. This is the largest annual civil rights conference, with an expected 20,000 thousand participants. This year’s theme is ‘Saving Our Cities.’The conference will focus on: social and economic inequality across America, improving education in disadvantaged communities, increasing jobs and job training, health and quality of life issues that threaten the lives of African Americans and other minorities, and creating quality affordable housing options (St. Louis, July 26-29 conference.iamempowered.com, @NatUrbanLeague)
Netroots Nation. For more than a decade, Netroots Nation has hosted one of the largest annual conferences for progressives, drawing nearly 3,000 attendees from around the country and beyond. Attendees include online organizers, grassroots activists and independent media makers. Some are professionals who work at advocacy organizations, progressive companies or labor unions, while others do activism in their spare time. NN is probably the most important agenda setting event for left of center Democrats and the online organizations they are active in.

The alumina surfaces obtained by anodic oxidn. can be detached from the bare metal by using a voltage detachment procedure, without employing chem. etching techniques. This procedure leads to large area porous alumina membranes with closed backsides. Prestructuring of the aluminum base metal leads to ordered pore regions at anodization voltages of 25, 40 and 50 V, resulting in porous alumina membranes with pore diams. of 33, 40 and 72 nm. The careful opening of the backside alumina membranes can be realized by acid treatment leading to highly flexible large area porous alumina membranes with complete through-hole pore morphol. The backside pore-opening process realized by chem. etching is strongly dependent on time and acid concn. and is best monitored routinely by microscopy techniques in order to gain control over the process.

A Purdue University student was arrested on a murder charge Wednesday and accused of killing his roommate overnight in a residence hall on the campus in West Lafayette, Indiana, the school's police chief said.
Purdue University Police Chief Lesley Wiete and the Tippecanoe County coroner’s office identified the slain student as Varun Manish Chheda, 20, a senior from Indianapolis, who was studying data science.
Ji Min “Jimmy” Sha, a junior cybersecurity major and international student from South Korea, called 911 around 12:45 a.m. Wednesday to alert police about the death, Wiete said at a news conference Wednesday morning.
Details of the call weren’t disclosed. Authorities said the incident happened in a room on the first floor of McCutcheon Hall.
Sha was in the Tippecanoe County Jail on Wednesday afternoon on a murder charge, according to jail records. No bond was set, records said.
Chheda died of "multiple sharp force traumatic injuries," and the manner of death was a homicide, according to preliminary autopsy results.
The final autopsy findings are pending toxicology, the coroner’s office said.
Arunabh Sinha, a childhood friend of the slain student, told NBC News that Chheda had been gaming and talking with friends online through Discord on Tuesday night when they suddenly heard screaming on the call.
Sinha wasn’t playing with his friends that night, but they told him they heard the attack and didn’t know what happened. They woke up Wednesday morning to news of his death.
Wiete said Sha, 22, was taken into custody minutes after the 911 call and brought to the police station for further investigation.
Video posted Wednesday shows university police escorting Sha out of a patrol vehicle in handcuffs as reporters wait for him. As he is taken inside a building, a reporter asks Sha, "Can you tell us why you did it?"
Sha pauses a few seconds and then seems to say, "I love my family." He then repeats the comment.
Wiete didn’t discuss a motive or details about weapons in the killing. She said the 911 call came from the room, in which only Chheda and Sha were at the time.
“I believe this was unprovoked and senseless,” she said, noting that neither roommate was asleep when the incident happened.
After Chheda's death, school officials said there was no threat to the community.

Chheda's death is Purdue’s first on-campus homicide in more than eight years, police said.
Andrew F. Boldt, 21, of West Bend, Wisconsin, was fatally shot Jan. 21, 2014, in the basement area of the electrical engineering building, the school said in a statement after the incident.
On Wednesday evening, hundreds gathered for a vigil on Purdue’s campus at the Unfinished Block P sculpture, which honors students who don’t get to finish their Purdue experience.
“I think people are just in shock. My sister was in class today and she said the girl next to here just wouldn’t stop crying,” student Claire Schnefke told NBC affiliate WTHR of Indianapolis.
“Everyone is just grieving and just mourning and so they’re just trying to fully understand and just get the realization of what has happened because it’s affected everyone on campus,” Kamanda Mosongo told the station.
University President Mitch Daniels said Chheda's death was "as tragic an event as we can imagine happening on our campus," adding that "our hearts and thoughts go out to all of those affected by this terrible event.”
About 50,000 undergraduate and graduate students are enrolled for the fall semester, according to the Purdue website.
Staff members at residence halls and clinicians with the school’s counseling and psychological services are providing support to students, he said in a statement Wednesday morning.
Daniels reassured everyone that the campus is a safe. “Compared with cities of Purdue’s population (approximately 60,000 in all), we experience a tiny fraction of violent and property crime that occurs elsewhere,” he said.
"Such statistics are of no consolation on a day like this," he added. "A death on our campus and among our Purdue family affects each of us deeply."
Arunabh Sinha went to school with Chheda for 12 years and said their families were also friends. He said Chheda was in his third year of college and was graduating early.
He remembered Chheda as “a really smart guy, always top of his class, top of the chess club, science bowl team. He was really humble about it.” Not only was he a bright student, but he also “always did things the right way, he refused to take short cuts,” Sinha said.
Chheda won first place at a state Spanish competition in 2015 and 2016, and he scored top honors at the State Science Olympiad Competition at Indiana University in 2015 for a presentation in the environmental chemistry division, according to Sycamore School, which he attended from kindergarten to eighth grade, NBC affiliate WTHR of Indianapolis reported.
In 2015, his team at Sycamore won eighth place at the National Science Bowl Competition in Washington, D.C., the school said, according to WTHR. The following year, the team placed second, Sycamore said.
After the 2015 loss, Chheda spent the summer reading a college-level biology book, Sinha said.
Not only was he dedicated to his studies, but he was also dedicated to his mother, his father and his younger sister, Sinha said.
“He was a tremendous family person. He had a lot of respect for his parents and their contributions to his life. Further, he loved his sister and served as a role model for his sister better than anyone I know.”
The news of his friend's death was hard for Sinha to comprehend.
“I was just in utter disbelief that something could happen to someone so pure, someone so intelligent, someone so innocent, someone who certainly did not deserve such an outcome. Everyone that I’ve talked to has said, ‘Of all the people, why him?’
“He’s been such a positive influence. And he was really smart enough to where he would make a massive impact, just with his brain, in the future,” Sinha said.
Andrew Wu went to middle school and high school with Chheda, and they hung out playing video games.
“We played games together all the time, video games, card games, you name it. Even hundreds of miles away, for the past four years in college, we still kept in touch. We’d hang out six to seven times a week just to play games together,” he said.
Wu said Chheda’s death was “totally out of the blue.”
“He doesn’t talk about his roommate ever. His roommate never comes up when we’re playing games. This morning, it was just a total shock," Wu said. Chheda “would not ever try to cause a conflict with anyone.”'
He said Chheda was so intelligent, "he could have done anything" after college.
"All the doors were open. He actually just knew so many different things,” Wu said.
He said what Chheda taught him most was compassion.
"I haven’t met someone who’s so kind like he is. He always notices when someone's uncomfortable. He’s always willing to compromise. He’ll always sacrifice himself to help other people," Wu said.
Sumeeth Guda, a senior studying mathematics and statistics at Purdue University, said he worked with Chheda on a final group project during the spring semester.
He remembered Chheda as "a serious student," saying he "definitely had an eye for detail and was determined to produce the best deliverable."
"Aside from that, he was a good guy, friendly, and open to helping the rest of us teammates,” Guda said.
'I have made many friends. ... I will cherish them'
Chheda graduated from Park Tudor School, a private school in Indianapolis, Dennis Bisgaard, the school’s interim head, confirmed.
“The entire Park Tudor community is incredibly saddened by the tragic loss of Varun Chheda, Park Tudor class of 2020. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family at this difficult time,” he said.
A school alumni Facebook page posted a tribute to Chheda on Wednesday, noting that he attended Sycamore School from kindergarten through eighth grade.
“We will miss him. Varun was a brilliant student, funny, and well liked by his classmates. He possessed admirable character traits that stemmed from a strong family,” Sycamore School head Diane Borgmann said.
The post also referred to Chheda's graduation speech in May 2016.
"I have made many friends. Relationships have been built on mutual respect and admiration and I will cherish them," Chheda told his classmates. "It is more than a school; it is a positive, healthy environment, where students, like young birds, grow and take flight."

I used to think that the act of taking a photograph itself forced you to slow down and take a closer look at things. While I still believe it is one of the key benefits of photography, the automation of camera operations and the proliferation of camera phones has changed this dynamic. It has become easy to grab a shot or even a video on the go.
Still, I believe most of the best photographs come from an immersion in the process, from paying greater attention to our subjects—no matter what kind of camera we use. When we slow down, we experience a place more intimately. If we are photographing people, we have the opportunity to make a real connection that can lead to greater understanding, empathy and insight. When photographing nature, we not only see things more clearly, we begin to discover the magic and mystery of plants and animals, the wonder of nature's design and the interconnectedness of everything around us.
“Only the obvious is seen quickly and clearly. “
- Rafael Rojas
Moving slowly through this fast-paced world we live in is not an easy thing to do. Even when we take time off and go on vacation, we have a tendency to do too much and do it too quickly. Most of us see how many different sites we can visit rather than slowing down and spending time in one place. When we move through a place quickly, we tend to see things from the same point of view as other tourists and photographers. It is only by slowing down, experiencing a place and getting to know its habitats and inhabitants that we begin to gain true insight and understanding.
In landscape photography, it takes time and a conscious effort to capture a sense of place—to photograph not only what a place looks like, but also how it makes us feel. It requires slowing down long enough and looking deeply enough to get beyond first impressions. In fact, I believe it is about more than seeing; it is about experiencing a place with all of our senses and our full, undivided attention.
If we want to create unique landscape images, we must slow down long enough to see what others have missed. Can we capture not only the physical elements of a landscape, but also a particular moment in that landscape? Can we photograph not only the broad views, but also seek out the details that, together, make a place whole? Can we shed light on the history and culture of a place?
Like others, I move too quickly through the world and through my days. I once thought the goal was to see how much I could experience, but these days I'm seeing greater value in slowing down and trying to focus more deeply on fewer things. It's not easy, but it is enjoyable. I'm seeing more things by going fewer places.

cardiovascular disease, cancer, leading cause of death, US
In 1900 the three leading causes of death in the United States were pneumonia and influenza; tuberculosis; and gastritis, enteritis, and colitis.1 However, through a combination of improved sanitation, the discovery of antibiotics, and the advent of vaccination programs, deaths from infectious diseases subsided and soon gave way to chronic diseases.2 Shortly after the turn of the century, diseases of the heart became of the number one cause of death, and in the 1940s, cancer began consistently appearing at number two. Since then, heart disease and cancer have remained firmly entrenched as the number one and two causes of death, respectively.
Although the gap between heart disease and cancer mortality rates was initially substantial, in recent decades, it has been narrowing. While “diseases of the heart” remains the leading cause of death in the U.S. as a whole, the aggregate, national-level data can obscure what happens in smaller groups. For example, Jemal and colleagues showed that since 1999, cancer has been the leading cause of death for persons younger than 85.3 The purpose of the present study was to determine if national-level data obscure state-specific transitions from heart disease to cancer as the leading cause of death.
