Re: Share Your Favourite Du'a
InshAllah, tomorrow will mark the conclusion of the 1st week of Ramadan 2009. I hope we have all taken advantage of the time that Allah(swt) has blessed us with. One of the actions that is most loved to Allah(swt) is being in the position of sujood. It is by far the most humbling action that servant of Allah can perform. Along with sujood, we are encouraged to extend our sujoods by reciting duas, as we all know that duas are the weapons of a believer.
Our beloved Prophet(pbuh) has taught us, the ever so Merciful Creator descends to the lowest heavens during the early morning hours looking for servants of his who are asking for forgiveness. This is an optimal time to make dua. So, inshAllah lets all learn the beautiful dua below, which was recited by our father Adam(pbuh) who repented to Allah(swt) before he was sent to Earth.
Rabbana zhalamna taghfirlana wa 'allimtalana wa laqoonanna minal khaasireen.
They said: Our Lord! We have been unjust to ourselves, and if Thou forgive us not, and have (not) mercy on us, we shall certainly be of the losers.

Du'as for Fasting
When breaking the fast- Iftar
اللَّهُمَّ اِنِّى لَكَ صُمْتُ وَبِكَ امنْتُ [وَعَلَيْكَ تَوَكَّلْتُ] وَعَلَى رِزْقِكَ اَفْطَرْتُ
Allahumma inni laka sumtu wa bika aamantu [wa 'alayka tawakkaltu] wa 'ala rizq-ika aftarthu
O Allah! I fasted for You and I believe in You [and I put my trust in You] and I break my fast with Your sustenance
["wa 'alayka tawakkaltu" is quoted in some books of knowledge - but not all, hence it is in brackets]
[abu Dawud]
ذَهَبَ الظَّمَأُ وَ ابْتَلَّتِ الْعُرُوقُ، وَ ثَبَتَ الأجْرُ إنْ شَاءَ اللَّهُ
dhahabadh-dhama'u wab-tallatil 'urūūqi, wa thabatal arju inshaAllah
The thrist is gone, the veins are moistened and the reward is confirmed, if Allah [Ta'ala] Wills
[abu Dawud 2:306]
اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَسأَلُكَ بِرَحْمَتِكَ الَّتِي وَسِعَتْ كُلَّ شَيْءٍ أَنْ تَغْفِرَ لِي
Allaahumma inni asaluka birahmatika al-lati wasi'at kulli shayin an taghfira li
O Allah, I ask You by Your mercy which envelopes all things, that You forgive me.
[a du'a that Abdullah ibn Amar (radiAllahu anhu) used to say when breaking his fast - as reported by Ibn abi Mulaykah (radiAllahu anhu)]
When someone offers you food when you are fasting and you decline
When you are invited to eat, then reply to the invitation. if you are fasting, then invoke Allah's blessings (on your host), and if you are not fasting then eat
[Muslim; 2:1054]
Upon reaching month of Rajab and Sha'ban
When the Prophet (salAllahu alayhi wasalam) sighted the moon of Rajab (two months before Ramadan) he used to pray to Allah in the following words:
اَللّهُمَّ بَارِكْ لَنَا فِى رَجَبَ وَ شَعْبَانَ وَ بَلِّغْنَا رَمَضَان
Allahumma barik lana fi Rajab wa Sha'ban wa ballighna Ramadan
O Allah! Make the months of Rajab and Sha'ban blessed for us, and let us reach the month of Ramadan (i.e. prolong our life up to Ramadan, so that we may benefit from its merits and blessings)
[Narrated by at-Tabarani and Ahmad]
When you are fasting, and someone is rude to you
اِنَّيْ صَائِمٌ ، اِنِّيْ صَائمٌ
Inni sa'iimu, inni sa'iimu
I am fasting, I am fasting
[Sahih al-Bukhari, Fath al-Bari of Al-Asqalani; 4:1-3, Muslim; 2:806]

Allahu Akbar. Allahumma ahillahu 'alayna bil-amni wal-imaani, was-salaamati, wal-Islami, wat-tawfeeqi lima tuhibbu Rabbana wa tardha. Rabbuna wa RabbukAllahu
Allah is the Greatest. O Allah bring us the new moon with security and faith, with peace and in Islam, and in harmony with what our Lord Loves and what pleases Him. Our Lord and your Lord is Allah
[at-Tirmidhi 5:504, ad-Darimi 1:336]
Upon seeing the first dates of the season
اللَّهُمَّ بَارِكْ لَنَا فِي ثَمَرِنَا ، وَ بَارِكْ لَنَا فِي مَدِينَتِنَا وَ بَارِكْ لَنَا فِي صَاعِنَا ، وَبَارِكْ لَنَا فِي مُدِّنَا
Allahumma barik lana fi thamarina, wa barik lana fi madinatina, wa barik lana fi saa'ina, wa barik lana fi muddina
O Allah! Bless us in our dates, and bless us in our town, bless us in our saa' and in our Mudd'
(saa' and Mudd' are dry measures used for agricultural produce by the Arabs in the Prophet's time)
[at-Tirmidhi 5:504, ad-Darimi 1:336]
Recited at intervals of taraweeh prayers

اَللَّهُمَّ اِنَّكَ عَفُوٌّ ، تُحِبُّ الْعَفْوَ فَاعْفُ عَنِّي
Allahumma innaka 'affuwwun tuhibbul 'afwa fa'fu 'anni' "

Re: Share Your Favourite Du'a
Assalam alaikum,
This dua is found in sura 18 verse 10. Our Noble Prophet(pbuh) encouraged us to read sura kahf every Friday.
How befitting is this dua, especially for our community!
Behold, the youths betook themselves to the Cave: they said, "Our Lord! bestow on us Mercy from Thyself, and dispose of our affair for us in the right way!"

Re: Share Your Favourite Du'a
Ohhh I like this thread! Masha Allah it's a very beneficial one! JazakhAllah Khair!!
My favourite du'aa: (2:284-286)
"284: To Allah belongs all that is in the heavens and all that is in the earth and whether you disclose what is in your own selves or conceal it, Allah will call you to account for it. Then He forgives whom He wills and punishes whom he wills, and Allah is over all things competent.
285: The Messenger believes in what has been sent down from His Lord and (so do) the believers. Each one believes in Allah, His Angels, His Books and His Messengers. (They say) "We make no distinction between one another of His Messengers." And they say, "We hear and we obey. (We seek) Your Forgiveness, our Lord, and to You is the return (of all)."
286: Allah burdens not a person beyond his scope. He gets rewarded for that (good) which he has earned and he is punished for that (evil) which he has earned. "Our Lord! Punish us not if we forget or fall into error. Our Lord! Lay not on us a burden like that which You did lay on those before us. Our Lord! Put not on us a burden greater than we have strength to bear. And Pardon us. And Grant us Forgiveness Have Mercy on us. You are our Maula (Protector) so give us victory over the disbelieving people."
"Abu Bakr did not precede you because of more fasts, prayers and dhikr. But because of something that came into his heart and settled in his consciousness" -Hasan Al-Basri

Re: Share Your Favourite Du'a
Assalamu Alaikum.
It was narrated that Anas said: The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) often used to say: Oh Turner of the hearts, make my heart steadfast in adhering to Your religion. Narrated by al-Tirmidhi (2140) and Ibn Maajah (3834); classed as saheeh by Al-Albani in Saheeh al-Tirmidhi.
Roman transliteration script: "Yaa muqallib al-quloob. Thabbit qalbi 'alaa deenik."
Wassalamu Alaikum.
It was narrated that Abu Hurairah said: "The Messenger of Allah (peace be upon him) said, 'Whatever I have commanded you, do it, and whatever I have forbidden you, refrain from it.'" (Sunan Ibn Majah *, vol. 1, Chapter 1, p. 73, Hadith number 1; Classed as Sahih by Hafiz Abu Tahir Zubair Ali Za'i and Sheikh Al-Albani)
* Darussalam Publishers (5 volumes, 2007), translated by Nasiruddin Khattab.
Look at how Imam Ibn Majah started his Sunan; he has shown great respect to the commands of the Prophet (peace be upon him) . . .

News Update
Federal grants aid coating advances
EUCLID, Ohio–Two federal grants aim to use one technology to develop advanced ways for joining dissimilar metals and antimicrobial coatings for large contact surfaces. MesoCoat Inc., a subsidiary of Abakan Inc., and the Oak Ridge National Laboratory will split a $1 million award from the Department of Energy (DOE) to develop a process to join dissimilar metal alloys. The primary objectives of the DOE project are to develop functional gradient transition joints between carbon steel and austenitic stainless steel for nuclear reactors, and to develop advanced joining techniques for dissimilar materials used in nuclear fission reactors.
In addition, MesoCoat was awarded a $150,000 Small Business Innovation Research award from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to develop antimicrobial coatings using its high-speed, large-area metal cladding technology. The NIH project aims to develop copper-based antimicrobial coatings primarily for contact surfaces in hospitals, but that could also be applied to other public areas such as airports, bus and railway stations, schools, restaurants and work places.
Both projects focus on the company's CermaClad technology, which uses high energy density IR fusion to metallurgically bond a layer of API-compliant metal alloy and nickel tungsten carbide to a steel substrate.
US construction job boom creates need for more training
ST. PAUL, Minn.–US construction unemployment, which neared 20 percent at the height of the recession, has now shrunk to just 7 percent, with 230,000 jobs added in the last year. Construction employers added 16,000 jobs between August and September, bringing the total to 6,079,000, the highest rate seen since May 2009. September's unemployment rate of 7 percent was the lowest September mark in 7 years, according to a report by the Associated General Contractors of America (AGC). The number of unemployed workers was 604,000, a level not seen since August 2007.
Residential and specialty trade contractors added a combined 11,800 employees between August and September 2014 and added 129,400 (5.9 percent) over 12 months. Nonresidential building and specialty trade contractors hired a net of 3,700 workers for the month and 100,300 (2.7 percent) since September 2013. However, heavy and civil engineering contractors, which perform the majority of public-sector construction, increased their headcount by just 500 in September and 29,000 (3.3 percent) over the year amid tight government budget conditions, according to AGC.
The employment gains coincide with continuing concerns by some construction firms over finding qualified workers to fill available positions. Employers are reporting a lack of local vocational training, especially at the secondary level. AGC officials urge federal, state and local officials to enact measures to make it easier for school districts, local associations, and private firms to establish career and technical education and training programs.
San Cast fined $156K by OSHA
WASHINGTON, D.C.–A follow-up inspection by the US Department of Labor's Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) at San Cast Inc., Coshocton, Ohio, found that workers were still exposed to amputation and fall hazards at the casting and foundry facility. The facility was previously cited after a worker suffered a leg amputation in June 2013. OSHA has issued 17 additional violations, carrying proposed penalties of $155,900, as a result of the recent inspection.
OSHA cited repeat violations for failing to protect employees from the ingoing nip points of belts, pulleys, chains. and sprockets. San Cast was also cited for failing to protect employees from fall hazards associated with an unguarded platform. OSHA issues repeat violations if an employer previously was cited for the same or a similar violation of any standard, regulation, rule, or order at any other facility in federal enforcement sates within the last 5 years. San Cast was cited for these violations in both March and September 2013.
San Cast also was cited for 11 serious safety violations involving lack of lockout/tagout procedures, exposing workers to struck-by hazards, and failing to maintain an overhead trolley system. The company also failed to inspect cranes and hoists regularly, and broken crane wires were discovered. An OSHA violation is serious if death or serious physical harm could result from a hazard an employer knew or should have known exists.
OSHA has inspected San Cast five times since 2009. The company has 15 business days from receipt of its citations and penalties to comply, request an informal conference with OSHA's area director, or contest the findings before the independent Occupational Safety and Health Review Commission.
EPA releases greenhouse gas emissions data from large facilities
WASHINGTON, D.C.–The US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) released its fourth year of Greenhouse Gas Reporting Program data, detailing greenhouse gas pollution trends and emissions broken down by industrial sector, geographic region, and individual facilities. In 2013, reported emissions from large industrial facilities were 20 million metric tons higher than the prior year, or 0.6 percent, driven largely by an increase in coal use for power generation.
"Climate change, fueled by greenhouse gas pollution, is threatening our health, our economy, and our way of life–increasing our risks from intense extreme weather, air pollution, drought, and disease," said Gina McCarthy, EPA administrator. "EPA is supporting the President's Climate Action Plan by providing high-quality greenhouse gas data to inform effective climate action."
The Greenhouse Gas Reporting Program is the only program that collects facility-level greenhouse gas data from major industrial sources across the US, including power plants, oil and gas production and refining, iron and steel mills, and landfills. The program also collects data on the increasing production and consumption of hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) predominantly used in refrigeration and air conditioning.
Over 8,000 large-emitters reported direct greenhouse gas emissions to the program in 2013, representing approximately 50 percent of total US emissions. Under the Climate Action Plan, EPA is taking steps to address carbon pollution from the power and transportation sectors, and to improve energy efficiency in homes, businesses, and factories. Under EPA's proposed Clean Power Plan, carbon emissions from the power sector would decrease by 30 percent below 2005 levels and electricity bills would shrink by 8 percent by 2030. EPA's pollution standards for cars and light trucks for model years 2012-2025 will save Americans more than $1.7 trillion at the pump. In addition, the agency's partnerships with industry have prevented more than 365 million metric tons of greenhouse gas pollution, equal to the annual electricity use of more than 50 million homes.

Coatings restored on historic military vehicles
FORT BENNING, Ga.–Seven historic US Army vehicles have been restored to their former glory, thanks to a massive volunteer effort by contractors and suppliers across the coatings industry. Working together under the leadership of Vulcan Painters CEO David Boyd, companies nationwide donated crews, equipment, materials, and services to paint the collection of armor and cavalry vehicles. The coatings work was done to the military's specifications for the tanks. Boyd estimates the labor and materials donated were between $125,000 to $150,000.
The tanks are now on display at the National Armor and Cavalry Heritage Foundation's 30-acre museum at the new Maneuver Center of Excellence in Fort Benning, Ga. The museum houses the lineage, history, and heritage of the US Army's Armor and Cavalry Force. A total of nine armored vehicles from World War II to the present, including the seven painted in this volunteer effort, are displayed along a walking trail at the museum.
New gel coating could eliminate risks of using styrene
DEVON, UK–A new gel coating used during manufacturing finishing could virtually eliminate the health and environmental risks of the organic compound styrene, researchers say. Styrene is commonly used in the manufacture of plastics, rubber, and resins. The chemical is also known as vinylbenzene, ethenylbenzene, cinnamene, or phenylethylene. Styrene vapors are emitted during manufacturing of fiber-reinforced polymer matrix composite finishes for products in transport applications, chemical plants, pipelines, and renewable energy systems.
Researchers at Plymouth University, Devon, UK, have hit on a way to reduce styrene levels by more than 98 percent. The secret: an inmold gel coating. Dr. John Summerscales, associate professor in Composites Engineering at Plymouth University, led the research. "Styrene has been the subject of extensive debate in respect of health and environmental issues," said Summerscales. "Exposure to styrene has previously been linked to altered mood states–in particular, aggression–while its vapor has been reported to cause depression, fatigue and a slowing in reaction times."
By reducing styrene levels in the workplace, there would be numerous positive results, such as improving retention of workforce personnel, minimizing release to the environment, and reducing odor at the factory boundary. Another benefit: keeping working conditions safe enough that employers are not tempted to ship the jobs to less-regulated countries.
The study compared three techniques used in the finishing process: conventional hand-painted gel coating; inmold gel coating with a separator fabric; and inmold surfacing with a silicone shim. The hand-painted process had significantly higher levels of styrene emissions than the two closed-mold processes.
Axalta Coating Systems receives multisite ISO 14001 certification
PHILADELPHIA, Pa.–Axalta Coating Systems, a leading global supplier of liquid and powder coatings, has announced that its manufacturing centers have received certification of conformance with the requirements of the ISO 14001:2004 standard. The certification has been accredited by Lloyd's Register LRQA and is valid for 3 years. The certification applies to all 34 of Axalta's majority-owned manufacturing facilities that produce liquid and powder coatings.
ISO 14001 certification provides assurance to employees, customers, and corporate partners, as well as to the general public and regulatory agencies, that companies adopt a systematic approach to environmental responsibility. The ISO 14001 program enables organizations to measure the environmental impact of their activities, to set environmental objectives, and to implement assessment and reporting processes to ensure environmental performance is continually improved.
In order to be recertified as compliant with ISO 14001 requirements, Axalta underwent a demanding evaluation process in 2014 that included third-party audits at 11 of their 34 manufacturing facilities. The audits focused on site compliance with the ISO 14001 standard as well as compliance with the Axalta global Environmental Management System (EMS). Each site passed a rigorous evaluation process covering a multitude of procedures, programs, and practices. It culminated in a comprehensive audit in December 2014 by LRQA of the Axalta global headquarters, during which the effectiveness of the global EMS was assessed. To maintain certification, LRQA will continue to perform semi-annual audits of Axalta's headquarters and a representative sampling of certified sites to ensure compliance and to assess initiatives for continued improvement.
OSHA clarifies coating label reprieve
WASHINGTON, D.C.–US paint and coating makers who will miss the June 1, 2015, deadline for updating their product labeling and safety sheets must be prepared to produce evidence of reasonable diligence and good faith efforts for their delay, federal regulators say.
The new Hazard Communication Standard (HCS) rules will affect about 945,000 hazardous chemical products handled by 100 million workers in 7 million workplaces, officials say. Among other changes, the rules will replace the longstanding Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) with the term Safety Data Sheet (SDS).
Responding to a request from the American Coatings Association (ACA), the US Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has clarified the terms of its October enforcement reprieve on those federally mandated changes.
ACA and eight other trade associations had petitioned OSHA in August for an implementation delay. ACA contended that coating formulators, distributors, and importers could not complete their document revisions until their upstream raw materials suppliers had completed theirs. Thus, ACA argued, makers and distributors of formulated products needed a later compliance deadline. OSHA agreed, but has only now clarified its conditions for an extension in its five-page Enforcement Guidance.
At issue is the June deadline for chemical manufacturers and importers to align their safety data sheets and labels for coatings, paints, and other chemical mixtures with OSHA's revised HCS. The goal of the changes, summarized as the right to understand, is to provide a "common and coherent approach to classifying chemicals and communicating hazard information on labels and safety data sheets." The new guidelines require simple, clear, and concise descriptions that avoid jargon, abbreviations, and ambiguous phrases. Hazard symbols (pictograms) and standardized SDS formats are designed to make the documentation as clear and consistent as possible. Regulators say the new labels could avert dozens of deaths and hundreds of injuries annually.
OSHA's new guidance requires manufacturers and importers to create HCS 2012-compliant safety sheets within 6 months of receiving a complete data set for all of the ingredients in a mixture. Suppliers will have 6 months for the new labeling requirement, giving them a total of 12 months to comply once they receive their data. Still, suppliers must be able to demonstrate their reasonable diligence and good faith efforts to comply. If they can do so, they may continue to use the 1994-compliant labels and MSDSs until the new materials are ready.

Federal rule protects LGBT workers
WASHINGTON, D.C.—Catching up with many states and large companies, the federal government has extended antidiscrimination protection to lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender employees of its contractors. A final rule announced in December bans discrimination by federal contractors on the basis of sexual orientation and gender identity.
The rule is the first federal action to ensure LGBT workplace equality in the private sector, but the measure echoes many already in effect throughout the public and private sectors. The District of Columbia and 18 states, as well as many businesses, have similar measures in place. Of the 50 largest federal contractors, which represent nearly half of all federal contracting dollars, 86 percent prohibit sexual orientation discrimination and 61 percent prohibit discrimination based on gender identity. In addition, the five top federal contractors, which receive nearly a quarter of all federal contracting dollars, already bar discrimination based on both sexual orientation and gender identity.
The new rule implements Executive Order 13672, a July 2014 amendment to the Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs' (OFCCP) Executive Order 11246 of 1965. EO 112346 established equal employment protections in the federal government and among its contractors and subcontractors. EO13672 tasked the Department of Labor (DOL) with extending those protections to gender identity and sexual orientation. The final rule, which became effective 120 days after its publication in the Federal Register, will apply to federal contracts entered into or modified on or after that date.

REACH targets corrosion chemicals
HELSINKI, Finland—Nine chemicals, including one used to make coated galvanized steel and several used in anticorrosion surface treatments, have joined the European Commission's list of "substances of high concern." The chemicals, added for their carcinogenic and reproductive toxic properties, amend the Annex XIV list of the regulation on Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH). REACH took effect June 1, 2007, and improves and streamlines the former legislative framework on chemicals of the European Union. Substances listed in Annex XIV may not be used without specific authorization. The new regulation includes deadlines for filing authorization requests, some of which are due by Feb. 22, 2016.
Veterans get corrosion career training
DETROIT, Mich.—US military veterans are becoming certified in cathodic protection with the help of a $2,500 grant from Consumers Energy, an electric and natural gas utilities company in Michigan. The grant went to NACE's Detroit section, which designed the workforce development program and raised funds to make the training free for the veterans they recruited to participate.
After receiving classroom training at Fort Custer, 13 veterans are getting hands-on training at Consumers Energy's facility in Climax, Mich., to learn how corrosion prevention improves the integrity of steel and keeps pipeline safe. Veterans who successfully complete the training will receive a certification that makes them immediately employable in the corrosion industry.
The NACE training is completely free to the veterans, including food and lodging, thanks to generous contributors. Plus, the use of Consumers Energy's natural gas facility was critical to making this cathodic protection training session possible. According to NACE, the average salary for corrosion professionals in Michigan is nearly $85,000.
ACA reports strong numbers in US coatings exports
WASHINGTON, D.C.—The US has seen strong numbers in coatings exports at the end of 2014, the American Coatings Association (ACA) reports. According to the Census Bureau's International Trade Statistics, US coatings exports through July 2014 were $1.61 billion, while imports were $593.6 million. A preliminary look at final numbers for 2014 shows that Canada and Mexico had the largest export markets, and Canada and Germany were the largest sources of imported coatings. According to ACA, although the manufacturing sector has long seen substantial trade deficits, the coatings industry has traditionally been a strong net export sector. The US likely enjoyed a net surplus in coatings trade of nearly $2 billion for the full year 2014.
OSHA fines powder coatings firm
WASHINGTON, D.C.—A Wisconsin powder coatings facility faces $51,800 in federal penalties for allegedly exposing workers to toxic substances. Power Coatings LLC, Janesville, Wis., has been cited for 14 serious safety violations. A serious violation is one that could result in death or serious injury. The US Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) issued the citations after a complaint inspection in December 2013.
According to the citations, workers were exposed daily to dangerous hazards, many of which could be prevented with the use of proper personal protective equipment and respiratory protection. The company must identify and correct workplace hazards and provide workers with required safety training.
The company operates an automated paint line with the ability to paint components up to 24 feet long by 10 feet high. Based on a search of OSHA records, this is the first time the company has been issued citations.
Waste powder powers a tougher coating
ZHEJIANG, China—Today's tons of silicone rubbish may be the secret ingredient in tomorrow's super-hydrophobic, corrosion-resistant coatings. Scientists at Zhejiang University in China reportedly have developed a way to burn and smash used silicone domestic products, like cup lids, to produce a super-hydrophobic powder. The powder can then be used to fabricate a stable, super-hydrophobic surface with mechanical durability.
Currently, the only option for reusing waste silicone is to collect discarded products and smash them for further processing for low-value applications. It's an expensive and complicated method that's not widely used. The research development provides a cheaper option. Super-hydrophobicity is a sought-after property for anticorrosion and self-cleaning materials. Silicone itself is hydrophobic; however, the team's process permits a change in morphology to hierarchical micro- and nano-scaled roughness that traps air. With a solid-air-liquid interface, the resulting surface is super-hydrophobic.
Scientists who have reviewed the research see a variety of potential applications. For example, as a wipe-on water repellent, the silica-based super-hydrophobic powder may hold promise for the development of robust and cheap de-wetting coatings.

OSHA, NIOSH announce recommended practices to protect temporary workers
WASHINGTON, D.C.—The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) and the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) have released Recommended Practices for staffing agencies and host employers to better protect temporary workers from hazards on the job. The publication is available at
The publication highlights the joint responsibility of the staffing agency and host employer to ensure temporary workers are provided a safe work environment. According to the publication, an employer's commitment to the safety of temporary workers should not mirror the workers' temporary status. Whether temporary or permanent, all workers always have a right to a safe and healthy workplace. Staffing agencies and the host employers are joint employers of temporary workers and both are responsible for providing and maintaining safe working conditions.
Temporary workers are at increased risk of work-related injury and illness. OSHA's Temporary Worker Initiative, launched last year, includes outreach, training, and enforcement to ensure that temporary workers are protected in their workplaces. In recent months, OSHA has received and investigated many reports of temporary workers suffering serious or fatal injuries, some in their first days on the job. The publication focuses on ensuring that temporary workers receive the same training and protection that existing workers receive.
Researchers manipulate metal to produce a bamboo-like material
RALEIGH, N.C.—Unlikely as it seems, bamboo has taught steel a thing or two about strength and flexibility, researchers report. By manipulating several kinds of metal to mirror the characteristics of bamboo, scientists at universities in the US and China say they have produced a significantly stronger, more flexible material.
The researchers at North Carolina State University and the Chinese Academy of Sciences' Institute of Mechanics in Beijing have enhanced the metals' mechanical characteristics by modifying their internal structure to emulate bamboo. Bamboo cells vary in size and density, which help give it strength and flexibility. To give metal the same characteristics, researchers gradually increased the size of the grains on the metal. Put simply, the gradual interface of the large and small grains makes the overall material stronger and more ductile, which is a combination of characteristics that is unattainable in conventional materials. It also makes materials more resistant to corrosion, wear, and fatigue.
The researchers tested the gradient structure concept in a variety of metals, including copper, iron, nickel, and stainless steel. The technique improved the properties in all of them.

"I asked customer service to have the same fonts as the example. They were very prompt. The paper quality is thicker than I imagined which made me happy. When the guest opens the envelope they see the rocking horse first. I plan on ordering matching thank you cards."
"Perfect for my sister's baby shower. We're doing an animal theme and this one fit perfectly. The space on the front was limited but we were able to write additional information about her registry on the back of the card."
"This was a great choice for a baby shower. Tiny prints was very accommodating. I requested a blue background and was very happy with the result. The invitation was perfect because of the bear graphic and quality of the product. People who received the invitation complimented the quality and thought the teddy bear was perfect. Very very happy with the invitation. Changes could be made easily to the text and service was superb."
"Personalizing this card is a breeze with some options to choose from lettering, colors and letter size. The quality of a paper is sturdy and printing is clear and no smudges around the letters. I will highly recommend this card to my friends who are planning for a baby shower."

A non-traditional bird house creation by Wanda Dunn of Penn Valley took the Best of Show award for the gingerbread house contest held in conjunction with the 2012 Country Christmas Faire held at the Nevada County Fairgrounds November 23 through 25. The gingerbread birdhouse was a traditional shape but was unusual in its use of decoration materials, which included three type of rice, green peas, various seeds and grains, cranberries, popped popcorn, pink peppercorns, and rosemary. "It has a realistic organic look to it and was fun and challenging to create, " said Dunn. It will be on display at the South Yuba Club in Grass Valley for a week, then at Tess' Kitchen Store through most of December.

Veteran actor Robert Redford finds it difficult selecting which films he wants to star in, because he has no interest in big-budget spectaculars.
The ALL THE PRESIDENT'S MEN star carefully chooses the parts presented to him, but admits he has a tough time wading through the numerous scripts.
He tells British magazine Empire, "The fascination is with different kinds of films than the ones I'm interested in.
"It's harder to get the money for those films. It's easier to get money for a large action film that costs $150 million, like Alexander and KINGDOM OF Heaven.
"But the films I'm interested in, they don't get much money because the studios don't see that there would be a return from them. Studios are more likely to invest in those types of movies rather than unique, darker, more reality-based stories."04/08/2005 10:31

Peter Douglas From Komfie Manalo, Opalesque Asia:
After spending 15 years in Asia doing fund management business and analyzing the hedge funds industry in the region, Peter Douglas, head of the Singapore-based hedge fund research firm GFIA pte ltd said that he believes that what in Asia appears to be pure alpha is very often tail risk in disguise.
Douglas was reacting to the question posed to panelists in the latest 2013 Opalesque Singapore Roundtable, where do we find alpha and where do we find yield?"
He stated, "We can find alpha, but how much are we prepared to pay for it? Its fine pulling 5% per annum of alpha out of a strategy, but if your manager is taking 4% of that in various fees,
then why bother?"
The 2013 Opalesque Singapore Roundtable was sponsored by Eurex, Taussig Capital and Eurofin Asia Group and took place on April 23rd in Singapore.
According to Douglas, the big risk in Asia is not volatility, politics or market risk, but liquidity. He added that in Asia, it is always provisional so any strategy that relies on high gross and low
net is a risky one.

I do love this, I am super fair, little purple veins showing through, giving me a fresh punched in the face look. This product does cover them up, leaves my lids lovely, and helps the shadow stick. So why only four lippies? The packaging! It seems ot get dry quickly, it musses easily, and attracts dirt. I have to constantly rewipe the top to get to the good stuff, wasted product, no bueno.

I was really disappointed in this product. While it does color correct my dark eyelids, it has zero primer-power in it -- my shadow creases or completely dissapears and within a couple hours, even the color correction is gone.
The formula is also rather dry - and not at all silky.
What a let-down.

This is an awful product! So dissapointing as I love most other Benefit items especially the cheek stains! This makes eyeshadow crease and goes on with no color to speak of and does not brighten the eye area. Would not recommend or purchase again...Would not even give this one away since it doesnt work!

this should have been called 'eye brightener' because that's all it does. it makes my eye shadow crease! i hope Benefit will re-formulate an eye primer that actually works and worth its high price tag!

I have this (in the newer packaging) and it has its uses. I dont agree with its advertising as a primer for eyelids as i find it makes my eyeshadow slide everywhere instead of sticking! Anyhow, I do love this for erasing redness on my face (usually on my chin where i normally get blemishes!!). It competely wipes out the red tones which i find helps my confidence! I have had it for about 2-3 years and havnt even hit the pan yet so its lasting forever. This product is not dupe-able! Is it worth the price? Maybe. Its lasgting forever so seems like a good investment!

As i'm reading some of the comments some of them are a little off.......THIS IS A PRIMER, not a concealer. I use this under my eyes to cancel out my dark circles and as a primer on my lid. I dont use this as my everyday primer becuase its so yellow it changes the color of your eyeshadow.....so i think this would be an amazing primer for the people who dont wear a whole lot of makeup and wear like mascara and maybe a nude eyeshadow. If youre just gonna do some errands this is awesome becuase It will brighten up your eye area, but it wouldn't change the color of a nude eyeshadow( like UD's NAKED)...So i say....swipe on some mascara...brush on some powder...pat on some concealer.....put on some lemonade and nude eyeshadow and GO!:)

Well, I'm not overly impressed with this. I feel like I get a better result with just a regular stick concealer of any type. It's creamy, so I guess it has some moisturizing properties which is good, but I think it's pretty near useless to be honest. It doesn't work very well as a primer, doesn't work very well as a concealer to conceal redness, doesn't especially help to make my eyeshadow pop. Not a total waste of money exactly but I wouldn't recommend it to anyone, either.

I have been using this product for about 3 years. The application does take getting used to. DO NOT over apply, and smooth onto the eyelids "quickly"/ consistently so its even.
SIDENOTE: My Lemon Aid has lasted me about 15months so even though it isn't cheap, a little goes a long way
- brightens eye
- great coverage
- small container + mirror
- it has never creased for me...
- packaging is annoying, stuff gets into the product container
I've been using Bare Mineral lid primer for the past 2 weeks and I don't like it. With a liquid-like primer I feel like you don't know if you've applied evenly because you can't see the product on your eyes. I like that with Lemon Aid you can see that product working and a noticeable difference on your eyes

When you sit down to do your makeup, suggest placing it under your knee/leg - somewhere it will warm up because every makeup products glides better when warm. I don't use this as an eyelid primer (MAC paint pot in Painterly suffices quite well for me), I use this on my discolored eye bag. And only on the eye bag once it has been warmed up! Voila, eye bag is gone.
Then cover it with a cream or liquid concealer and set with transl powder.
Nothing has worked as good as this product has in eliminating my under eye circles. On the days I don't use it, my eye bags are still quite noticeable. This complelety eliminates that 'grey shadow', but only when used correctly.
A Similar product/shade would be Illamasqua's under eye concealer, in the yellow shade. I use both to completely eliminate and brighten my eyes.
The packaging of Lemon Aid is completely annoying though.

Hey Folks.
So Sad.
My wife and I were at the parks last weekend, and were delighted to discover that some of the beautiful mixed media sculptures by Michelle Valigura were still avialble for sale at the Disney Gallery. My wife and I got engaged at the park, honeymooned there, and are pretty big disney fans in general.
I never thought I'd be able to buy an original piece of art from the parks, but we were totally smitten by Peter Pan and The Lost Boys - a fantastic sculpture that really resonated with the kids in both of our hearts. We agreed that we had to have it, and started to negotiate with the gallery about the sale.
Apparently we would be unable to take it home with us that weekend, as the gallery has 'special people' who are the only ones allowed to handle the one-of-a-kind art, and they weren't available at the time to package our purchase. The gallery castmembers assured me everything would be fine with shipping, and that their 'special people' were trained on how to handle such delicate art. One castmember in particular flat out told me that it would be safer with their shipping dept. then being carried back home by hand in our car (we live in Oakland). I've had serious trouble with DelivEars and ther shipping methods before, but with hesitance and after many 'you guys better not screw this up' discussions I accpeted their line and went ahead and had it shipped.
So, it arrived yesterday, horribly broken. Whoever packed it simply wrapped some bubble wrap around it and plunked it into a used and too small box that, by looking at the exterior info, appears to be designed to ship plush toys from China to the resort. I paid a PREMIUM price on shipping for this?? They disrespected the piece and the artist - seems like as soon as it was a sale it turned into 'just another piece of merch' to the shippers... I don't even know what to say. I can't believe they would treat an original piece of art in such a disrespectful manner. The piece is broken - they assured me that they would give a full refund if we were dissatisfied after we received the piece... but i don't want a refund, I want my wedding present back - the one that moved my wife and I to make a purchase that we never thought we could afford at this point in our lives. Honestly, i would pay money at this point for someone else to have walked with the sculpture - at least it would be intact and able to be appreciated by someone else... but now? Who knows what they will do with it when I return it.
Wife in tears, I have to listen to her cry herself to sleep. Heart broken, upset, angry, dissapointed.. so many emotions.
Never ever ever let them ship something that you can't afford to lose, people. Apparently it's just not a priority for them, not matter what they tell you or how much you pay for the service. I can't even imagine what I would pay at this point for the priveledge of driving 12+ hours round trip to pick it up instead of the horror that is their shipping practices.
Damn you, Disney.

Ménage à Trois red brings together three strange bedfellows: Zinfandel, Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. To add complexity and retain character, each variety was fermented separately, then blended together prior to bottling. On top we've got Zinfandel, a saucy tease that brings blackberry and raspberry jam to the relationship. Merlot, with its generous mouth feel and red fruits, fits perfectly in the middle. The rich flavors and firm tannins of Cabernet Sauvignon make it the ideal candidate for the bottom layer of the trio.
Our 2008 Ménage à Trois exposes the fresh, ripe, jam like fruit that is the calling card of California wine. Forward, silky and soft, this delicious dalliance makes the perfect accompaniment for grilled meats or chicken.

Picture: The DEA raid the Mickey Fine Pharmacy, reportedly searching for the improper dispensing of controlled substances that could possibly be related to the death of...
Music mogul DALLAS AUSTIN has revealed Michael Jackson's talents didn't stop with music - the King of Pop was a great painter and sketcher too.
The record producer, who worked with Jackson on his HIStory album, admits he was really impressed with the pop star's artistic efforts.
He tells Rolling Stone magazine, "People didn't know how much of a painter he was. He would draw a lot of stuff inside his album.
"If you look inside of the HIStory album... there's a little kid sitting in the corner, which is one of the sketches that he did while we were actually sitting in the studio.
"I was like, 'Man, do you paint and draw?' and he just started showing us all these paintings and drawings that he had like at his house. The stuff was amazing."
