more of promo of Desmond Lee and Josephine Teo
TCJ has disagreed with a number of positions taken by the cabinet. This could not go on. He however is keen to carry on in politics, as an MP and look after his ward. He has strong grassroots support as shown by the votes for the CEC for 3 consecutive terms. He in fact he outscored OKY and Grace Fu who had to be co opted for the last CEC. This move is the compromise for both the TCJ and the party.
He is expected to take on a position in the private sector besides the role of the speaker.
Abdullah Tarmugi has lost his political support from the Malay Community and had to be moved out. Similar to Tarmugi is Lim Chee One who was removed as cabinet and NTUC Sec General when he lost the support of NTUC leadership team.
TCJ's case is similar to that of Dhanalablan.
Is CCS trying to be sarcastic when he says that the the role of Speaker is a "very important position" in Singapore's system of Government ?
" We need somebody with the stature, who is open-minded, who is fair, balanced, and can command the respect of all parliamentarians. From what I know of Chuan-Jin personally, I think he will do a good job in this aspect."
You can smell his utter insincerity.
Firstly, are there any positions in the government that are not very important or not important at all ? Secondly, are there any cabinet ministers today who are not fair and balanced in thinking and approach ?
Compare Halimah who was only Minister of State becoming a Speaker of Parliament, this is obviously a 'demotion' for TCJ from full Minister to becoming just the Speaker of Parliament.
CCS is just trying to sugarcoat the role as though it has suddenly become so very important while in the past it was not so important just so because TCJ who is supposedly of ministerial caliber is now taking it on.

This guy is an idiot. He probably hates TCJ and the principles he upholds.
The role of speaker of Parliament in the Westminster and Singapore model is a mundane role that requires no leadership or legal skills. It is a politically dead end role. His comments are not only over the top and to your point - insincere.
PAP is well-known for its tight discipline, unlike the oppies who take delight in fighting amongst themselves in public. Chuan Jin would be praised to the heavens like he is some hero, and he will go gladly as though he's really been promoted. He will likely move into some GLC role by the next GE.
Do something meaningful. Join the grassroots. Peoples' Association all the way!
CCS must have whispered something to LHL.
LHL is anything but a strategist. He cares only to fill the holes. Not sure if the other DPMs were consulted. It must have been a quick decision.
Poor TCJ.
He is keeping to the belief that he must have been highly regarded by PM to be given the position of the Speaker of the House.
At the very least, it offers some comfort in the belief.
You see it in his FB. He sought for strength from God to do the role of the Speaker of the Parliament. I thought a full minister 's job is tougher. It just makes me wonder.
"May God continue to grant me wisdom, courage and love in all that I do. However inadequate as I may be, I hope that I can fight the good fight, finish the race and keep the faith.
And of course. My family. Words cannot express how much your continued love and support mean to me in carrying out my duties and responsibilities."

I am glad I've never been too polite to TCJ during grassroots event. I don't wish to go down with his sinking ship. Grassroots and CCC leaders who have been too friendly with boy scout are now regretting it. All that political investment down the drain. TCJ won't be leading marine parade GRC for long.
The good ESM will be retiring soon, and TCJ is no longer a minister. MP ward needs a strong leader, not one fallen from grace.
Do something meaningful. Join the grassroots. Peoples' Association all the way!
It is clear that TCJ is out of the PM race.
Just wondering what did he do or didn't do that cause him to lose his Minister's job ?
He is a nice guy, I was told.
But ..... nice guys are usually indecisive when faced with tough calls. The good thing is nice guys make good , fair and balanced ceremonial speakers.
Ah Gong was a great politician because he wasn't a nice guy. He did what was necessary to survive and thrive, both for himself and for the sinkie people.
Time for boy scout to carry his cross.

Desmond Lee , on the other hand, is an up and rising star. The son of Lee Yock Suan, his rise to Full Minister was nothing but phenomenal. He has the backing of his father and aides. I do not know if Lee Yock Suan is related to the Lees.
"More major breakdowns, but more reliable."
'We have companies, jobs, departments being outsourced and completely relocating to Manila because graduates in Manila could do their

'' Tan Chuan-Jin had strong words yesterday for those orchestrating a campaign against a planned event to celebrate Philippine independence day here.
In a Facebook post, he called on Singaporeans to take a stand against such "repulsive" peddlers of hate ''
It seems a Filipino related appointment will be suitable for him

Recovery after abdominal surgery can be painful and frightening. Resuming daily activities after Cesarean-sections, bariatric surgery or hysterectomies can be difficult. Abdominal belts are often given to patients after surgery to help resume activities like walking, coughing, or using the restroom. Abdominal belts often provide a feeling of comfort to patients who have had abdominal surgery and are in the early stages of recovery.
Stand in an upright position. This will make application of the abdominal belt easier.
Place the top of the abdominal belt just below the navel.
Stretch out the abdominal belt with both hands, maintaining the position of the belt below the navel line.
Wrap one end of the abdominal belt around the stomach region, making sure to keep the stretch of the abdominal belt.
Pull the other end of the abdominal belt over the previous side, ensuring that you stretch out the end of the belt as far as possible.
Secure the abdominal belt by pressing the two ends against one another.
Check the abdominal belt to make sure that it is tight around the stomach region and not loose.

Rotor Riot is here to grow the FPV multirotor hobby and sport. We want to push technology forward. We want to connect people and encourage them to collaborate. We want to go on an adventure to inspire people through technology, community and good times!
"IN JANUARY 2016, an action-packed web show appeared on YouTube aimed specifically at the burgeoning first-person-view (FPV) multirotor community. But unlike earlier attempts, this one eschewed technical language, avoided instructional videos, and circumnavigated hobbyist clichés, opting instead for something a lot more exciting. Taking cues from snowboarding and skating videos, it portrayed the wider social, cultural, and personality led gamut of the FPV scene: its codes, clothes, and camaraderie. Rotor Riot had arrived."

Renewable Energy Corporation
The Renewable Energy Corporation is a solar power company with headquarters in Norway. REC produces silicon materials for photovoltaics applications and multicrystalline wafers, as well as solar cells and modules. REC's business activities are organized into three divisions: REC Silicon, REC Solar, and REC Wafer.All of REC's solar cell and wafer production plants in Norway were shut down permanently in 2011 and 2012 due to weak market conditions and prospects of significant negative cash flow.On 25 October 2013, the solar division was split from the company and listed as a new company, Rec Solar ASA. It is headquartered in Singapore while traded on Oslo Stock Exchange. The remaining silicon division will from 1 December 2013 be headquartered in Washington state. Wikipedia.
News Article | October 26, 2016
Site: www.eurekalert.org
Nanyang Technological University is building Southeast Asia's first offshore system that will integrate multiple renewable energy sources such as solar, wind, tidal, diesel, and power-to-gas technologies Nanyang Technological University (NTU Singapore) is building an offshore system that will integrate multiple renewable energy sources such as solar, wind, tidal, diesel, and power-to-gas technologies. The region's first large-scale offshore power grid system, it will have four hybrid microgrids, occupying over 64,000 sq metres of land or roughly about eight soccer fields. The system will be built at Semakau Landfill which is managed by the National Environment Agency (NEA). It will have over 3,000 sq. metres of photovoltaic (PV) panels, including energy storage systems that are already in operation. The deployment of the first hybrid microgrid was announced today by Mr Masagos Zulkifli, Minister for the Environment and Water Resources at the Asia Clean Energy Summit (ACES) held at the Sands Expo and Convention Centre, Marina Bay Sands. "I am happy to announce that the first microgrid has just been deployed and it will enable the National Environment Agency (NEA) to power its infrastructure on Semakau Landfill using electricity generated through zero-carbon means. The use of energy storage and microgrid control technologies will allow the landfill to reduce its reliance on diesel-based power and transition towards renewable energy. I am also pleased to share that REIDS will deploy 3 further microgrids on Semakau Landfill to test the interoperability of various microgrid solutions." Once all four hybrid microgrids are fully built, they are expected to produce stable and consistent power in the megawatt (MW) range, suitable for small islands, isolated villages, and emergency power supplies. It will also produce energy amounting to the equivalent of the average energy consumption of 250 4-room HDB flats for a year. Fish hatcheries and nurseries located at Semakau Landfill will be among the first to be powered. Built under the Renewable Energy Integration Demonstrator-Singapore (REIDS) initiative led by NTU, the hybrid power grid system will test the integration of solar, wind, tidal-current, diesel, energy storage and power-to-gas technologies and ensure these energy sources operate well together. NTU Chief of Staff and Vice-President (Research) Prof Lam Khin Yong said "The deployment of this first hybrid microgrid is a big leap towards low-carbon electricity production for the nation and the region. As a global leader in sustainability research, NTU is proud to champion this ground-breaking initiative and lead Singapore's charge in developing practical renewable energy solutions." Supported by the Singapore Economic Development Board (EDB) and NEA, NTU's REIDS initiative will also facilitate the development and commercialisation of microgrid technologies suited for a tropical island. Mr Goh Chee Kiong, Executive Director of Cleantech at EDB said, "Singapore has identified microgrids as a key growth area for the clean energy industry. REIDS is the largest microgrid R&D platform in Southeast Asia and therefore is instrumental to Singapore's ambition to achieve a global leadership position in microgrids and serve the regional markets. Since its launch in 2014, the REIDS platform has been successful in attracting leading solution providers and regional adopters to develop, demonstrate and export microgrid solutions from Singapore." Mr Ronnie Tay, Chief Executive Officer of NEA, said, "The REIDS project will lead to innovative sustainable energy solutions that will help to address climate change. The National Environment Agency (NEA) is very pleased to support this landmark effort to explore the integration of renewable energy into micro-grid solutions." Managed by NTU's Energy Research Institute (ERI@N), the REIDS initiative is expected to attract $20 million worth of projects over the next five years, in addition to the initial $10 million investment in infrastructure at the landfill. REIDS has attracted investments from top energy and microgrid companies which aim to co-develop such solutions to serve the growing market in Southeast Asia. The four microgrid systems will be developed by ENGIE, GE Grid Solutions, LS Industrial Solutions (LSIS) and Schneider Electric. Other partners include Accenture, Class NK, DLRE, Renewable Energy Corporation (REC), Trina Solar. LSIS and Sony were also announced as partners today at ACES 2016. The REIDS platform will pave the way for similar technologies to be developed and exported to serve the numerous remote communities in Southeast Asia and beyond. It has already attracted the interest of regional adopters such as island communities and utilities. For instance, Bawah Island, an Indonesian island in the South China Sea, and Meralco, the largest electric distribution company in the Philippines, will partner REIDS to develop offshore microgrid projects. See Annex A for more info on the hybrid microgrids project and Annex B for a list of companies involved in NTU's REIDS initiative. A research-intensive public university, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore) has 33,500 undergraduate and postgraduate students in the colleges of Engineering, Business, Science, Humanities, Arts, & Social Sciences, and its Interdisciplinary Graduate School. It has a new medical school, the Lee Kong Chian School of Medicine, set up jointly with Imperial College London. NTU is also home to world-class autonomous institutes - the National Institute of Education, S Rajaratnam School of International Studies, Earth Observatory of Singapore, and Singapore Centre for Environmental Life Sciences Engineering - and various leading research centres such as the Nanyang Environment & Water Research Institute (NEWRI), Energy Research Institute @ NTU (ERI@N) and the Institute on Asian Consumer Insight (ACI). Ranked 13th in the world, NTU has also been ranked the world's top young university for the last two years running. The University's main campus has been named one of the Top 15 Most Beautiful in the World. NTU also has a campus in Novena, Singapore's medical district. The hybrid microgrids at Semakau Landfill will be implemented in two phases. The first phase, which has been completed, involved installing a microgrid facility with over 3,000 metre square of photovoltaic (PV) panels as well as a large-scale energy storage system. The lithium-ion energy storage system (ESS) can store up to 200 kilowatt hour (kWh), similar to the monthly energy consumption of a two-room HDB unit, and will serve as a medium term energy storage. Currently in the second phase, a 64,400 metre square plot (about 8 soccer fields) was cleared to make way for three separate microgrids which can either be operated separately or be integrated and function as a single power facility. These separate microgrids will each manage multiple renewable energy sources such as photovoltaic panels, wind turbines, diesel generators and energy storage systems, including supercapacitors. Supercapacitors differ from normal lithium-ion energy storage as they are able to both quickly store and discharge a large amount of electricity. However, they are unable to hold the electricity over a long period of time, serving as short term energy storage. Excess energy generated from the microgrid can be used to generate hydrogen that can be stored long-term to be subsequently used in fuel cells which convert hydrogen into electricity, generating far less emissions as compared with oil and gas. 1.

Failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA) has been extensively used by wind turbine assembly manufacturers for analyzing, evaluating and prioritizing potential/known failure modes. However, several limitations are associated with its practical implementation in wind farms. First, the Risk-Priority-Number (RPN) of a wind turbine system is not informative enough for wind farm managers from the perspective of criticality; second, there are variety of wind turbines with different structures and hence, it is not correct to compare the RPN values of different wind turbines with each other for prioritization purposes; and lastly, some important economical aspects such as power production losses, and the costs of logistics and transportation are not taken into account in the RPN value. In order to overcome these drawbacks, we develop a mathematical tool for risk and failure mode analysis of wind turbine systems (both onshore and offshore) by integrating the aspects of traditional FMEA and some economic considerations. Then, a quantitative comparative study is carried out using the traditional and the proposed FMEA methodologies on two same type of onshore and offshore wind turbine systems. The results show that the both systems face many of the same risks, however there are some main differences worth considering. © 2014 by the authors; licensee MDPI, Basel, Switzerland.

A power generating system operates in a flowing body of fluid, such as water or air. The system includes a continuous loop member engaging and rotating around two rotatable members, which, in turn, are operatively connected to a generator. The continuous loop member can include a plurality of attachment arms that extend outwardly therefrom. A collapsible fluid catchment device can be attached to each attachment arm. The fluid catchment devices can open in the direction of movement of the water thereby driving the continuous loop member and, consequently, the rotatable members. When moving against the fluid flow, the catchment devices can collapse to a closed position to thereby reduce drag. The attachment arms are long enough so that the catchment devices are spaced a sufficient distance from the continuous loop member to prevent contact with the rotatable members and the continuous loop member when the catchment devices are fully open.

I just found this thread, and can't believe of it's popularity. Or that it's that much of a big deal. I also can't believe that 1 car spot, can be that much of an inconvenience to the coal delivery. But then again, I don't know what the limitations are on his chute length. I would think the coal company (wanting the business), would find a way around this. I'm sure your dilemma isn't the 1st time they've run into this.
And going along the same route as the responder who referenced "Back-draft", have the coal company punch out the Jeeps windows, and fill the car with coal. Use "it" as your coal bin. I'm sure it would hold a tons worth.

NBC - Page 4
'SNL' Taps Melissa McCarthy to Host Super Bowl Saturday
We like to imagine that most folk would be busy with preparations for the big game even late into Saturday night, but 'SNL' will have an MVP of its own come Super Bowl weekend. 'The Heat' star Melissa McCarthy will make her third hosting turn on the 'SNL' stage come February 1, but who will join as musical guest?
Watch Jimmy Fallon and Seth Meyers' First 'Tonight Show' and 'Late Night' Promos
A few weeks from now, the late-night TV landscape will look drastically different, what with current 'Late Night' host Jimmy Fallon taking over 'The Tonight Show' from Jay Leno, while 'SNL''s resident Weekend Update anchor Seth Meyers graduates to 'Late Night' in turn. The first promos for these takeovers have emerged, but will everything be ready in time for opening night?
'SNL' Adds Sasheer Zamata as New Black Female Cast Member
What, you thought Jonah Hill's third hosting gig was the 'SNL' news of the day? Nope! At long last, after a heated controversy and a nationwide search, the long-running NBC sketch comedy series has found its newest black female cast member in Upright Citizen's Brigade veteran Sasheer Zamata.
'SNL' Preview: John Goodman Celebrates Unlucky Hosting Number 13
We're midway through 'SNL''s December 2013 run after 'Anchorman 2' player Paul Rudd's star-studded turn with One Direction this past weekend, leaving 12-time host and 'Inside Llewyn Davis' star John Goodman up to bat with Kings of Leon. The first promos for Goodman's 13th 'SNL' turn have arrived, but will the unlucky number prove the repeat host's undoing?
Watch Tina Fey and Amy Poehler Prep to Host the 2014 Golden Globes
Last night saw NBC garnering itself an impressive number of viewers for the train-wreck-maybe-sorta 'Sound of Music Live,' and given all the attention, what better place to promote Tina Fey and Amy Poehler's return to the Golden Globes stage this coming January 2014? See the ladies of '30 Rock' and 'Parks and Recreation' stage their own musical, kinda!
'SNL' Season Premiere Preview: Tina Fey Has Another Wardrobe Malfunction, Plus 'Breaking Bad' Cameos?
Amid all the other major premieres this week and next, we'd nearly forgotten that 'SNL' will kick off its 39th season this coming Saturday, with alumni Tina Fey taking up hosting duties and Arcade Fire on the musical side. The first preview for Fey's return to the 'SNL' stage has arrived, but has everything already come unhooked?
'SNL' Taps Tina Fey for Season 39 Premiere, Plus Miley Cyrus, Bruce Willis, Katy Perry and More!
Just when you thought 'SNL' couldn't have put that Lindsay Lohan rumor to bed any harder, the first three episodes of the 2013-14 season will blow the lid off '30 Rock' altogether. Alumni Tina Fey will host the September 28 'SNL' premiere, with the weeks that follow to include the likes of twerqueen Miley Cyrus, Bruce Willis, and even a returning Katy Perry!
'SNL' Season 39 Taps Lady Gaga to Return, Possibly Host?
Forget all about that crap rumor of Lindsay Lohan hosting the 'SNL' season 39 premiere, much more credible intel points to an even crazier female figure: Lady Gaga! Unsurprising given her showy VMA performance and upcoming album release, the queen of weird will return to the 'SNL' stage in season 39 to perform, but is there any chance the star will take up hosting duties as well?
2014 Golden Globes: Tina Fey and Amy Poehler Asked Back to Host
Tina Fey and Amy Poehler's success in hosting the 2013 Golden Globes this past January led to some fairly reaching rumors that the two would next be tapped for the Oscars, but at least one future ceremony has proven a no-brainer for the comedic duo. Sources report that Fey and Poehler have been "informally" invited back to host the 2014 ceremony, but will either return to the Golden Globe stage?
'SNL' Adds Michael Patrick O'Brien, More New Blood For Season 39
Late last night we heard that 'SNL' had begun the difficult process of staffing up in the wake of Fred Armisen, Jason Sudeikis and Bill Hader's departures, with Seth Meyers to exit for his new 'Late Night' gig in 2014, while the latest update swings in both directions. Existing writer and '7 Minutes in Heaven' performer Michael Patrick O'Brien will go in front of the camera as a featured player, while several new writers have joined the staff for season 39.
'Breaking Bad' to Get Jimmy Fallon Treatment, Plus Badger's Animated 'Star Trek' Pitch!
It's no secret that 'Breaking Bad''s final premiere episode "Blood Money" knocked the socks off fans and critics alike, effectively doubling its viewership since last year's season 5 premiere "Live Free or Die." And while the AMC drama continues riding high in its final eight episodes, the web has responded in kind with a new Jimmy Fallon spoof in the works, and an animated adaptation of Badger (Brandon Mayhew)'s hilarious 'Star Trek' pitch!

The Advantages Of Weapons Coaching In Karate

The film opens with Lee Joon as Jae-sung, a failed actor who decides that suicide is the only answer to his many problems. After his attempt at killing himself fails, he goes to a nearby public bath, where his path crosses with that of hired killer Hyung-wook (Yu Hae-jin), who slips on a bar of soap and knocks himself unconscious. Seizing his chance to change his life, Jae-sung switches their locker keys and takes on Hyung-wook's identity, enjoying his wealth and privileges, unaware that he's stepping into the shoes of an assassin until he realises that he's been tasked with killing his beautiful neighbour Eun-joo (Lim Ji-yeon). Meanwhile, suffering from amnesia, Hyung-wook falls in with paramedic Lina (Jo Yoon-hee) and finds success as an actor in a gangster television show, before fate brings him and Jae-sung together again.
Even were it not a remake, Luck-Key is a familiar sounding proposition, the whole life swapping and amnesia plot having been done countless times over the years, in Korean cinema in particular. There's little here that'll surprise most viewers, and Lee Gae-byok doesn't make much effort to dress things up or add anything original to the formula, being content to let things play out as expected, with Jae-sun and Hyung-wook's fish out of water experiences being largely by the book. There's little in the way of tension or real drama as a result, and the film is predictable right down to its last act, its protagonists never being in any genuine danger. The film's romantic relationships similarly feel entirely standard and as if they've been inserted mainly just to tick a box, and neither convinces or carries any emotional weight.
Thankfully, Lee seems perfectly aware of these failings, and keeps the focus firmly on the film's comedic elements, never taking things too seriously and employing a light-hearted approach, more so than Kenji Uchida took with the original Key of Life. In no small part thanks to very likeable performances from the two leads, the film is frequently very funny, Yu Hae-jin playing things straight to amusing effect and Lee Joon making for a charismatic loser. Mixing slapstick and some sharp one-liners, the film is one of the more entertaining Korean comedies of late, and this goes some way to distract from its lack of originality. A few well-choreographed action sequences and flashes of violence also help, and the film bounces briskly along through its slightly overlong two hour running time.
Although this isn't enough to make Luck-Key terribly memorable, as a commercial popcorn offering it's enjoyable throughout, at least for viewers unconcerned by its familiar feel. Given a definite lift and a dash of star power by leads Yu Hae-jin and Lee Joon, the film makes up for its lack of substance with its winning sense of humour, and while its premise might not sound very promising, it comes as a pleasant and amiable surprise.

This is the room that needed the most immediate attention and, really, is the most fun to look at because you just have to wonder: WHAT WERE THEY THINKING???
(With Seller's Stuff)
I would also like to state that they left the rug, toilet seat cover and shower curtain for me.
Thank GOD for rubber gloves
Some from when we moved in
(just so you don't think I did this when they were there to see me! hahaha)
The infamous full length wall o mirrors in front of the toilet
This is what the tub looked like after DAYS of scrubbing and trying all SORTS of things to get those nasty buggers off.
And then it looked like this:
And then when we removed the mirror (see link below) it got a HUGE ding in it so we had to replace it.
Which brings me to:
Think I'll put this above the toilet and then maybe do shelves or a cabinet later if we find we need the storage. For now, this cheaper and I think it's pretty cute!
I got this image from the oldtinshack.com.
I'm a little worried about the green of the tub going with the green of the walls but I figure you never know til you try!
Plus, it matches the other "art" so perfectly!
Wet Pippin!!
This is the wall the mirror used to be on. Quite a difference, eh??
I promise, it's not hung as high as it looks. It's the stinking light switches in this house. ALL of them are lower than normal!
My favorite part of the whole bathroom!
We still need to tile the tub surround (but the shower curtain hides that fact nicely!) so we're not all the way done but I'm just happy to have the second toilet!
Wall Color: Behr Rejuvenate
Faucet: Amazon.com

Still to do:
Not much! Just have to tile the tub surround and then add some accessories.
It'll be the nicest room in the house shortly! :-)

After the success of Gladiator, studios fell all over each other to get the next similarly themed epic onto screens. However, the trend quickly died following the high profile failures of Alexander and Troy (sounds like a gay design firm ... "Welcome to Alexander and Troy, where we fulfill all your decorating needs with a flair".)
Of course, all it takes is another hit to revive a dead genre, so following the blockbuster 300, togas and tunics are now all the rage again: remakes of the semi-classic 80's cheese-fests Conan the Barbarian and Clash of the Titans are now in the works.
Considering that the original heroes played by Arnold Schwarzenegger and Harry Hamlin were barely clad the first go round, it sounds like we'll be in for a veritable beefcake bonanza.

Complex and highly automated systems impose high demands on employees with respect to cognitive capacity and the ability to cope with workload. Prevention of over-and underload at workplaces with high cognitive demands can be achieved by objectively registering mental workload. Hence, the goal of this work is the development of such an objective method. We briefly introduce the so-called Dual Frequency Head Maps (DFHM) for registering mental workload by means of the electroencephalogram (EEG). Based on them, we obtain an index of mental state every 5 s ranging between the classes low, moderate, and high workload. Finally, we present results from a sample set of 54 people who executed cognitive tasks like switching and AOSPAN in a laboratory setting. We then verify the integrity of the new method by comparing the results with further workload relevant biosignal data, performance data, and the NASA-TLX questionnaire. © Springer International Publishing Switzerland 2017.

Neuronal workload measurement is a key-technology for optimizing work conditions in human-machine systems. Specific aims are the identification of neurophysiological parameters indicative for workload and their validation by systematic variation of external load conditions. The battery consists of tasks with diverse complexity and difficulty. The sample consists of 34 people and shows high variability in respect to the cognitive capacity and hence to the experienced mental workload. The electroencephalogram (EEG) as well as further workload relevant bio signal data and the NASA-TLX as a subjective questionnaire method are registered. Results from the NASA-TLX questionnaire reveal the predominant role of the mental dimension at the implemented task battery. Furthermore, the NASA-TLX indicates the existence of diverse levels of difficulty with several tasks per level. Analysis of EEG spectra demonstrates an increase of frontal theta band power and a decrease of alpha band power with increasing task difficulty level. © 2014 Springer International Publishing.

Objectives: The present study sought to examine the long-term effects of exposure to respirable quartz on pulmonary function with particular focus on chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Methods: The study is based on the Wismut cohort of former uranium miners. Spirometric data were ascertained together with quantitative estimates of cumulative exposure to respirable quartz for each of 1421 study subjects born between 1954 and 1956. The case definition for COPD is based on the criteria of the Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease. Linear mixed regression models were fitted to identify significant determinants of longitudinal changes in lung function parameters. Results: An average of five spirometries were available for each miner. It was shown that cumulative exposure to 1 mg/m3-year respirable quartz leads, on average, to a relative reduction in forced expiratory volume in 1 s/ orced vital capacity (FEV1/FVC) of 2.75% (p<0.001). A nested case-control approach demonstrated that the risk for COPD stage I increases with increasing cumulative exposure to respirable quartz (OR 1.81 per 1 mg/m 3-year). Conclusions: This paper adds further evidence on the long-term effects of exposure to respirable quartz, which include a decline in pulmonary function parameters and an increase in the incidence of COPD.

The Diesel Exhaust in Miners Study (DEMS) demonstrated a strong exposure-response relationship between diesel exhaust exposure, measured as respirable elemental carbon, and lung cancer mortality. However, the results seem conflicting insofar as the results of the analysis by standardized mortality ratios (SMR) seem to be not compatible at all with the other results. A synthesis of the published results leads to a new explanation. The key to this hypothesis is the assumption that workers, who switch from surface job to underground job are very likely in much better physical conditions than other surface workers. Thus, the healthy-worker-effect could explain the apparent self-contradictory results of the DEMS cohort. A modified analysis by unconditional logistic regression yields as a crude risk estimator adjusted for smoking OR = 0.92 for miners ever worked underground jobs. Hence, the results of the different approaches for the DEMS cohort are compatible with each other.

Background: The aim of this study was to validate a triaxial accelerometer setup for identifying everyday physical activity types (ie, sitting, standing, walking, walking stairs, running, and cycling). Methods: Seventeen subjects equipped with triaxial accelerometers (ActiGraph GT3X+) at the thigh and hip carried out a standardized test procedure including walking, running, cycling, walking stairs, sitting, and standing still. A method was developed (Acti4) to discriminate between these physical activity types based on threshold values of standard deviation of acceleration and the derived inclination. Moreover, the ability of the accelerometer placed at the thigh to detect sitting posture was separately validated during free living by comparison with recordings of pressure sensors in the hip pockets. Results: Sensitivity for discriminating between the physical activity types sitting, standing, walking, running, and cycling in the standardized trials were 99%-100% and 95% for walking stairs. Specificity was higher than 99% for all activities. During free living (140 hours of measurements), sensitivity and specificity for detection of sitting posture were 98% and 93%, respectively. Conclusion: The developed method for detecting physical activity types showed a high sensitivity and specificity for sitting, standing, walking, running, walking stairs, and cycling in a standardized setting and for sitting posture during free living. © 2014 Human Kinetics, Inc.

Materials that can be described as respirable granular biodurable particles without known significant specific toxicity (GBP) show a common mode of toxicological action that is characterized by inflammation and carcinogenicity in chronic inhalation studies in the rat. This study was carried out to compare the carcinogenic potency of GBP nanomaterials (primary particle diameter 1-100 nm) to GBP micromaterials (primary particle diameter >100 nm) in a pooled approach. For this purpose, the positive GBP rat inhalation carcinogenicity studies have been evaluated. Inhalation studies on diesel engine emissions have also been included due to the fact that themode of carcinogenic action is assumed to be the same.As it is currently not clear which dose metrics may best explain carcinogenic potency, different metrics have been considered. Cumulative exposure concentrations related to mass, surface area, and primary particle volume have been included as well as cumulative lung burden metrics related to mass, surface area, and primary particle volume. In total, 36 comparisons have been conducted. Including all dose metrics, GBP nanomaterials were 1.33- to 1.69-fold (mean values) and 1.88- to 3.54-fold (median values) more potent with respect to carcinogenicity than GBP micromaterials, respectively. Nine of these 36 comparisons showed statistical significance (p<0.05, U test), all of which related to dosemetrics based on particlemass. Themaximum comparative potency factor obtained for one of these 9 dose metric comparisons based on particle mass was 4.71. The studies with diesel engine emissions did not have a major impact on the potency comparison. The average duration of the carcinogenicity studies with GBP nanomaterials was 4 months longer (median values 30 vs. 26 months) than the studies with GBP micromaterials, respectively. Tumor rates increase with age and lung tumors in the rat induced by GBP materials are known to appear late, that is, mainly after study durations longer than 24 months. Taking the different study durations into account, the real potency differences were estimated to be twofold lower than the relative potency factors identified. In conclusion, the chronic rat inhalation studies with GBP materials indicate that the difference in carcinogenic potency between GBP nanomaterials and GBP micromaterials is low can be described by a factor of 2-2.5 referring to the dose metrics mass concentration. © Springer-Verlag 2012.

Employees at agricultural working places are often exposed to complex bioaerosols. Investigations of bioaerosols in duck houses revealed concentrations of cultivable bacteria between 0.4 and 3×105 colony forming units (CFU) m-3 on tryptone soy agar, 0.3 and 2×105 CFU m-3 on actinomycetes isolation agar, and 0.8 and 5×103 CFU m-3 on Middlebrook agar, respectively, when incubated at 25°C. At an incubation temperature of 37°C, 0.6-3×102 CFU m-3 were counted on MacConkey agar and 0.3-2×103 CFU m-3 on Middlebrook agar, and the concentrations of bacteria on glycerol-arginine agar and oatmeal agar incubated at 50°C varied between 0.1 and 2×103 and 1 and 7×103 CFU m-3, respectively. In addition, high concentrations of cells were observed by fluorescence microscope quantification of cell counts after 4′,6-diamidino-2-phenylindol staining with 3-8×107 cells m-3. A total of 213 colonies with different morphological appearance were selected and the isolated pure cultures were identified at the genus level using the 16S rRNA gene sequence analyses. In summary, 19 different genera of Actinobacteria, four genera of the Firmicutes, one genus of the Bacteroidetes, and five genera of the Proteobacteria were identified. Several isolates represent new phylogenetic lineages. Based on 16S rRNA gene analyses, some isolates were most closely related to Cellulosimicrobium funkei, Corynebacterium falsenii, Corynebacterium xerosis, Mycobacterium arupense, and Staphylococcus epidermidis, which have been grouped into Risk group 2 of biological agents and may cause negative pulmonary health effects. These bacterial species were present in high concentrations up to 104 CFU m-3. For this reason, we recommend an adequate personal breathing protection at these working places.

Complex and highly automated systems impose high demands on employees with respect to cognitive capacity and the ability to cope with workload. Objectively registering mental workload at workplaces with high cognitive demands would enable prevention of overand underload. Although urgently needed, such technical measurement is currently unfeasible. Hence, the goal of this work is the establishment of precisely such an objective method. In this article we briefly present a new method for registering mental workload by means of the electroencephalogram (EEG). Based on so called Dual Frequency Head Maps (DFHM) every 5 s we obtain an index of mental state ranging between the classes low, moderate, and high workload. Finally, we present results from a sample set of 54 people during the execution of the cognitive tasks 0-back, stroop test and AOSPAN in a laboratory setting. We compare them with our expectations based on the knowledge of task requirements on the executive functions as well as with further workload relevant biosignal data, performance data, and the NASA-TLX as a subjective questionnaire method. By this we gain proof of the integrity of the new method. © Springer International Publishing Switzerland 2016.

Today's large-scale poultry production is often accompanied by high concentrations of airborne microorganisms at working places. However, the microbial communities in those bioaerosols are rarely characterised. In this study, we investigated the bacterial population in bioaerosols from a duck hatchery by both cultivation based and molecular methods and compared the results. Depending on used media, concentrations of airborne culturable bacteria varied between 6 × 101 and 7 × 106 CFU per m3 air. The corresponding total cell count of DAPI stained cells was 2 × 107 cells per m3 air. 16S rRNA gene analyses of bacterial isolates and clone libraries revealed a low species richness in hatcheries air, respectively. More than 50% of bacterial isolates were phylogenetically most closely related to bacterial species of the risk group 2 (German TRBA). The sequence composition in clone libraries supported the result of cultivation based approaches, whereby sequences assigned to Staphylococcus, Acinetobacter and Enterococcus are the most common. The high concentration of airborne bacteria which are most closely related to species of potential health risk requires further detailed investigations for these bacterial species. © The Royal Society of Chemistry 2011.

The evaluations in Gebel (Arch Toxicol 86(7):995-1007, 2012) were carried out according to established procedures in regulatory toxicology. The variability in the available data was taken into account. The quality of the underlying data set should not be overestimated. The relevant conclusion in Gebel (Arch Toxicol 86(7):995-1007, 2012) is that the difference in carcinogenic potency comparing nanosized to microsized respirable granular biodurable particles without known significant specific toxicity (GBP) is low and lower than previously estimated. © 2013 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
