Early on the morning of the Saturday opening the 2016 Labor Day weekend, a 17-year-old lifeguard suffered a fatal electric shock and drowned in the Wake County, North Carolina (NC), pool. She was preparing the pool for residents of the Heritage Point community north of Raleigh. Police and investigators from state agencies like the NC Department of Labor's Occupational Safety and Health Division worked all week without discovering why the high school student became electrocuted.
Shocks and electrocutions at work happen far too often. Poorly inspected and improperly maintained electrical systems present serious health and safety risks that can go overlooked and unaddressed by companies more focused on cutting costs than saving lives. We cannot know whether that negative assessment applies to the homeowner's association that pays for the pool where the North Carolina teenager lost her life or to the company paid by the HOA to manage the pool from day to day.
Officials told reporters that their investigation into the cause of the workplace electrocution and drowning may take three months or longer. During that time, the companies who may bear responsibility for creating and maintaining an unsafe workplace can be expected to do all they can to deny liability. Part of those efforts may take the form of directing blame toward alleged errors by the deceased lifeguard.
Casting doubt on the actions of an injured or killed worker is a key tactic for disputing insurance claims, denying workers' compensation and defending against civil lawsuits. Consulting with a caring Carolina wrongful death attorney who has experience representing victims of shocks and electrocutions can help the teen lifeguard's family protect themselves from such unfounded accusations. Hiring a dedicated plaintiff's attorney will also ensure that family members remain fully informed of investigators' progress and have access to experts' interpretations of a final report on the fatal incident.

Mitch woke up with a start, and blinked to get his gritty eyes to adjust. Jeez, how much had he drunk last night?
The hotel room smelled of sex and alcohol and her sultry perfume. It clung to the covers and he inhaled deeply. He was a hopeless case, where she was concerned. His one weakness, as evidenced by the fact that he was….Dammit, he was going to be late.
He scowled at his phone, and clambered off the bed. Now, where were his damn clothes? He couldn't suppress a grin when he spotted them. His shoes were by the door, one sock hung off the lampshade, and he located his trousers under the bed. Which left his shirt and favorite tie.
Shit, his wife had bought him that tie. He couldn't lose that.
Red painted toe nails appeared in his view, and he straightened slowly.
"Looking for something?" she drawled.
His tongue stuck to the roof of his mouth and he sat down heavily on the bed, as she sauntered toward him, wearing nothing but his shirt and that tie.
"We'll be late for the kids…"
Smiling she shrugged the garment off.
"Mum will keep them. Happy Anniversary, darling."
As ever, let me know what you thought of my teaser today.

What Is Unjust Recruitment?
Temporary Foreign Workers in BC perform critical work caring for children and the elderly, and helping businesses to grow. Yet, they are often subjected to abuse and exploitation along the recruitment pathway to, and within, BC.
It is illegal to charge people money for finding a job in BC. Yet, recruiters routinely charge Temporary Foreign Workers thousands of dollars in illegal recruitment fees for jobs in BC that are often different than promised or do not exist at all. To pay recruitment fees, workers typically borrow money, and end up in debt when they arrive in Canada.
The combination of high debt, low pay, temporary immigration status, and work permits that are tied to one single employer make Temporary Foreign Workers vulnerable to abuse by employers and recruiters. Temporary Foreign Workers fear the very real repercussions of being fired by their employer and deported if they assert their rights or complain about poor treatment or work conditions.
What is the Rising Up Against Unjust Recruitment campaign?
The Rising Up Against Unjust Recruitment campaign calls on the BC government to take urgent steps to stop the abuse of Temporary Foreign Workers in our province. In particular, BC must take steps to stop recruiters and employers from charging unlawful fees and to help workers to recover these fees more easily. Six other provinces have implemented legislation to better protect migrant workers, including enhanced regulation of recruiters and proactive enforcement. Despite bringing in the second highest number of TFWs, BC continues to lag behind.
We demand that the provincial government take the following action:
Enact new legislation to protect temporary foreign workers. Require that recruiters of temporary foreign workers be licensed in BC and pay a financial security at the time of licensing, hold employers liable for the actions of their agents, and increase the limitation period for filing complaints with the Employment Standards Branch to 3 years.
Implement a proactive enforcement regime. Make employers register with the province, hold recruiters liable for the actions of agents operating outside of BC, mandate inspections of workplaces and housing, investigate anonymous and third party complaints, and increase penalties for violations of the Employment Standards Act.
Provide access to information and advocacy. Require that employers facilitate access to free information sessions for workers about their rights. Form an advisory to assist workers with filing complaints as well as establish a 24 hour help line.

While you do not have to be a member to worship or participate in other events at the Church of the Good Shepherd, we strongly encourage attendees to become full members of our church family. The decision to commit to a fellowship or family of Christians requires prayerful consideration. It is a commitment that will enable you to experience the fullness of community as the Body of Christ.
"Consequently, you are no longer foreigners and aliens, but fellow citizens with God's people and members of God's household, built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, with Christ Jesus as the chief cornerstone." Ephesians 2:19
If you would like to become a member of the Episcopal Church of the Good Shepherd, here are several ways to do so:
If you are a member of another Episcopal Church, you may contact our Church Office at 361-882-1735 to have your membership transferred.
If you were baptized in another Christian denomination, your baptism will be accepted here. We do not re-baptize people who are already Christians. However, to be an Episcopalian, you would be asked to be received or confirmed into the Episcopal Church. To be received or confirmed, you will be asked to prepare by attending the Adult Confirmation classes offered during the year, and then be received or confirmed by the Bishop.
If you have never been baptized into the Christian faith and desire to make that commitment as a member of the Church of the Good Shepherd, it is our great joy to walk with you through this process. Baptism is the sacrament of new birth as a Christian and the entrance into the family of Christian believers. As an adult, part of your preparation will be to meet with one of our Clergy and participate in the Adult Confirmation classes. If you wish to baptize a child, the parents of the child (and the child, depending on his/her age) will meet with the clergy, and then confirmation classes will take place when the child is able to make his/her own profession of faith. The necessary preparation for Baptism and the Baptism service can be arranged through the Church Office at 361-882-1735.
Some Expectations of Members
All members of the Episcopal Church of the Good Shepherd are encouraged to participate fully in the life of this family by engaging in the following:
There are opportunities to attend worship services and Christian formation classes at the Church of the Good Shepherd almost every day of the week. Some parishioners come to a service or class every day; some come only once a week. If you attend a worship service two or three times a month, you are considered to be engaged in regular attendance. Participation in a church family is part of the essential training and maturing process for a Christian. Our regular commitment to coming together as family of believers builds our faith, strengthens and encourages us for our journey, and glorifies God.
"They devoted themselves to the apostles' teaching and to the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer. Everyone was filled with awe, and many wonders and miraculous signs were done by the apostles…Everyday they continued to meet together…with glad and sincere hearts, praising God and enjoying the favor of all the people. And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved." Acts 2:42-47
Christian giving is a spiritual issue, not a financial one. As we grow in our relationship with God, we begin to understand how God has blessed us with spiritual gifts, monetary resources, practical talents and skills, wisdom and experience as well as ideas, dreams and energy. Our knowledge of what God has done for us usually compels us to give back to Him. As a member of the Church of the Good Shepherd, you will be asked to think and pray about what God is calling you to give to the church. One significant way members give is by making a financial commitment to the church. We do not ask our parishioners to give a certain dollar amount, only to make an annual pledge and then follow through on that amount. These financial offerings to God are used for the mission and ministries of the church. In addition, members give of their time, literally investing themselves in the life of the Church. The third way that members give to the church is through their spiritual gifts of service, teaching, leadership, mercy, compassion or by sharing skills or knowledge such as carpentry or nursing for a particular project or mission. Membership at The Church of the Good Shepherd comes with the expectation of giving in all three of these ways, Time, Talent and Treasure. As we learn and practice giving of ourselves, we are blessed beyond measure by experiencing God's presence and His abundant life.

"Remember this: Whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows generously, will also reap generously. Each man should give what he has decided in his heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver. And God is able to make all grace abound to you, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work." 2 Corinthians 9: 6-8

steroid alternative If you ask individuals who have been in bodybuilding even for only for just a few months as to what makes his workouts effective. It would not become a shock that his answer could be his diet. An effective bodybuilding strategy is its not all about lifting household names for hours every day, however it is also consisting of an effective diet categorised as as a muscle-building diet.
Listed take a look at few of the most significant muscle-building foods that happen to be vital in bodybuilding. Try to to understand foods in your daily diet.
1. Protein shakes
Perhaps this is actually the most popular muscle-building food on the market. A lot of gyms even offer this sort of shake that is certainly both refreshing and also a perfect drink for your weight lifting workout.
There is essentially five different protein shakes which might be known in the weight lifting industry. Two of options casein and egg protein shake. The third an example may be the whey protein isolate shake which may be the easiest to generate but is less thick in comparison to the others. The fourth the first is the soy and hemp and soy protein shakes, which might be perfect for that muscle-building vegetarian. Last however, not the least could be the blended protein shake. The name itself says everything concerning this shake. It is a mixture of casein, egg, whey along with other protein sources.
If you could have just started performing exercises, then this blended protein shake is a superb starter for you personally. Blended protein shakes contain both protein and also a lot of amino acids, which may effectively quick start your muscle-building routine.
2. Water
Many weight training enthusiasts often forget this vital consider muscle-building. It is advised which you drink no less than a liter of water each day for several reasons. First of that's that your muscle mass are 70 to eighty percent water. If you do not adequate water intake, it will take for a longer time for the muscles to correct itself. To add, water helps with making the muscles look bigger.
Furthermore, not drinking a lot of water could cause parts of your muscles to be dehydrated, which may potentially damage parts of your muscles during your workout.
3. High protein content food
20 to 30 % of muscle tissue is comprised of protein, hence a protein enriched weight loss program is essential for an effective muscle building routine.
Experts' advice which you at least take thirty percent the calories you take in from protein. Furthermore, seek to take in a variety of samples of protine such as chicken, fish, beef and eggs. Plant sources for instance beans, seeds also contain protein.
Nonetheless, it truly is advised you take a variety of protine sames, and never just adhere to beef. Protein is actually made up of amino acids and, with there being about 20 various kinds of amino acids. Each protein source can have different degrees of amino acids.
Muscle-building is you cannot assume all about having the ability to lift big names for long time periods, however it is a combined a balanced eating and working out.

World champion Peter Sagan might have liked the views after previewing the Rio de Janeiro Olympic road race course this week, but he admitted it's too hilly for him.
Sagan took advantage of his trip to South America to debut his 2016 season at the Tour de San Luís and previewed the Rio course with a few Tinkoff teammates. The takeaway? It's too hard for Sagan.
"This course is not for me," Sagan said during a press conference, reports Nieuwsblad.be. "This is more suitable for pure climbers. I don't see a medal here for myself."
Sagan rode the Rio course with Tinkoff teammates Maciej Bodnar, Pawel Poljanski, Raja Majka, and Tinkoff sport director Patxi Vila. A gaggle of Brazilian fans trailed along as Sagan took in the route. With two major climbs in the circuit course along the coast road south of Rio, the Olympic road course is attracting attention from the likes of Sky's Chris Froome, Tinkoff's Alberto Contador, and Movistar's Nairo Quintana.
After his course inspection, Sagan took his name off the list of contenders. That doesn't mean he won't participate in the Olympics, but he admitted he doesn't see himself as a medal contender.
"This doesn't change anything for me," Sagan said of his season goals. "I will keep working on preparing for the spring classics and the Tour de France."
Sagan will make his European debut later this month ahead of a busy spring classics schedule. He will race Omloop Het Nieuwsblad and Kuurne-Brussels-Kuurne at the end of February, followed by Strade Bianche, Tirreno-Adriatico, and Milano-Sanremo in Italy, before diving straight into the northern classics.
Sagan didn't commit to whether or not he will race in the Rio Games, but hinted he will come back to Brazil someday.
"This is a beautiful city, with a lot of mountains and greenery and beaches, but I came here to work," Sagan said. "Maybe some day I will come back as a tourist."

4. Type of projects and examples
The main goal for students is to define and apply the appropriate statistical methodology on your dataset, taking into account the complexity and incompleteness of its structure and translate the results into answers on your research question. The type of questions and related statistical methodology students can handle, depends on their specialization track:
In the specialization Biostatistics/Biostatistics ICP sound training in modern statistical methodology, necessary for the design and analysis of biomedical and epidemiological studies, is provided. Core biostatistics courses are Longitudinal Data Analysis, Survival Analysis, and Clinical Trials. The specialization in Biostatistics has a strong research orientation. The programme of students from developing countries, with a scholarship sponsored by the University Development Cooperation Section of the Flemish Interuniversity Council (VLIR-UOS), is adapted to their specific needs and interests in the Biostatistics ICP specialization.
The programme for the master of statistics, specialization Biostatistics, and an example of a master thesis project in Biostatistics can be consulted to illustrate possible projects.
The rapid evolution in scientific research in genomics and proteomics continuously requires new knowledge and skills.

The Master of Statistics: Bioinformatics prepares graduates in such a way that they:

- Possess the necessary knowledge and skills to develop, understand and create bioinformatics software tools and databases.
- Become self-assured, independent and assertive professionals for whom analysing an issue, structuring information, working in international and multidisciplinary teams, conducting and chairing discussions and presenting ideas have become second nature.

"SJT at 60" - A New Exhibition at Scarborough Art Gallery
A major new exhibition at Scarborough Art Gallery will celebrate the 60th birthday of one of the town's most famous institutions – the Stephen Joseph Theatre.
SJT at 60 can be seen at the Gallery from Saturday 11 July to Sunday 13 September.
In 1955, theatrical pioneer Stephen Joseph started the UK's first ever theatre-in-the-round on the first floor of Scarborough Library. Sixty years later, and now located in the town's Art Deco former Odeon cinema opposite the railway station, the SJT is still going strong. Many famous faces have started their career at the theatre, including, of course, Scarborough's most famous resident, Alan Ayckbourn.
Scarborough Museums Trust Collections Manager Jennifer Dunne, who has curated the exhibition, says:
"We're delighted to celebrate the 60th anniversary of this internationally important theatre. Visitors can see photographs, posters, programmes and props from many of the productions of the last 60 years, plus – a real coup – Allan Ramsay's portrait of Alan Ayckbourn, on loan from the National Portrait Gallery."Stephen Wood, former Executive Director of the Stephen Joseph Theatre, who worked on the exhibition in conjunction with Scarborough Museums Trust, said:
"We are delighted to be working with our friends at Scarborough Museums Trust in our 60th anniversary year. I'm confident that many of the exhibits will never have been seen before by the public and that this three-month exhibition will give a huge opportunity for many more people to see what an extraordinary history the SJT has had up to this point in the delightful setting of Scarborough Art Gallery."There will be a programme of supporting events around SJT at 60 including lunchtime and evening talks, and guided walks taking in the theatre's three homes at the Library, Westwood and the former Odeon. For further information, please visit the Scarborough Museums Trust website: www.scarboroughmuseumstrust.org.uk
The gallery is open Tuesday to Saturdays from 10am to 5pm, plus Bank Holidays.

Challenge Yourself to Live Plastic Free This July
"Think about it. Why would you make something that you're going to use for a few minutes out of a material that's basically going to last forever, and you're just going to throw it away. What's up with that?" Jeb Berrier, BagIt Movie
Three years ago, environmentalists in Perth, Australia came up with a splendid idea: Plastic-Free July.
This year, the Plastic Free July campaign offers its fourth annual challenge to the consumer: Try to go through the entire month of July without utilizing a single piece of single-use plastic.
Last year, more than 4,000 individuals, schools, businesses and organizations participated in the challenge. The initiative was also nominated for and won two major environmental awards in western Australia, the Infinity Awards and the Keep Australia Beautiful Star Awards. Plastic Free July accepted the awards on behalf of everyone who had participated in the challenge.
Plastics were developed in the early 20th Century and, by the 1960's were used not only in durable items but also in disposable plastic items and plastic packaging. In the second half of the 20th Century, over 1 billion tons of plastic was manufactured. According to Scientific American, this figure has already doubled in the first ten years of the 21st Century.
The Plastic Free July campaign points out that the world goes through 10 billion plastic bags weekly while the United States uses a staggering 2.5 million plastic bottles every hour and 500 million straws daily. The campaign notes that "recycling is important but it will never be the solution to rapidly expanding consumption," adding that "every piece of plastic ever produced still remains somewhere in the earth today."
Instead, Plastic Free July focuses on "refusing, reducing and reusing."

The Ritz-Carlton Kapalua reopened yesterday following a $160 million renovation project.
The renovations, which began in the summer shortly after Florida-based GenCom Holdings Inc. acquired the AAA Five-Diamond West Maui hotel, are intended to help cater to the growing market for upscale family and longer-term travel, said Kim Kessler, public relations director for the Ritz-Carlton Kapalua.
Improvement costs ended up about 68 percent higher than the $95 million estimated last year, an increase Kessler attributed to increased shipping and construction costs as well as change orders.
As part of the hotel's new family push, the number of hotel rooms was reduced from 548 to 463 larger units. Rooms were also stocked with island-style furnishings and the latest technology, including flat-screen televisions, iPod docking stations, DVD players and wireless Internet access. Kamaaina rates are running about $400 a night, Kessler said.
In addition, the resort built 107 full-ownership residential suites, which offer kitchen areas and spacious living rooms, Kessler said. Some of these one- and two-bedroom units, which are set to go on sale in the next few weeks, will also be available to hotel guests, she said.
The hotel's restaurants and its fitness and pool area also underwent improvements and there are plans to open an environmental education center by midyear. A 17,500 square-foot spa, with 15 treatment rooms, is slated to open May 2008.
Developed in 1992 for $206 million, the 54-acre property employs roughly 600 employees. About 91 percent of the hotel's staff has returned to work for the property's reopening, Kessler said.

These days it is incredibly easy to get sucked into taking out credit to pay for big items or to fix things when they break down. This can be an expensive habit though in the long run. Having been down this route before and paid the price, I felt it was important to highlight the importance of having an emergency fund.
There are many reasons you may need to think about having an emergency fund and the amount you decide you want to aim for will vary vastly from one person to the next.
If you own a car, how would you pay if it broke down or needed new tyres in a hurry? Could you manage without the car if you couldn't afford to fix it? What about the fridge, washing machine or even the boiler? These can all be costly items to fix or replace when things go wrong.
Credit cards and loans can be very costly ways to pay for things. The interest rates charged on these can be extortionate, particularly if you only make the minimum payment every month. Credit cards and loans do have their uses so I'm not slating them, you just need to be aware of the real cost of using them.
Having an emergency fund saved up means that you don't need to quickly scrabble around to find the funds when things go wrong. Some people feel that they'd like to aim for £1,000 for emergencies, others like to have a few months worth of bills money stashed away in case of job loss. Whatever figure you decide on will benefit you though in the long run. Even a couple of hundred pounds could make a huge difference if the fridge packs up.
There are many ways you can start to build up your emergency fund. You do whatever suits you and your situation. For me, this year I'm joining in with a Virtual Sealed Pot challenge. The idea with this is that at the end of every week, you round your bank balance down to the nearest £5 or £10 and transfer the extra over to a "sealed" account. You're meant to do this on a set day every week. As my next pay day is a Wednesday, I've been transferring the extra over on Wednesdays and budgeting for the following week based on my new balance. I don't expect this method to make me a fortune but it's a great way of stashing a little cash away every week.
You could decide to put £10 a week away or any other amount. The main thing is though that you put some money away in case of emergency, it's like a cushion and it does make you feel that little bit more secure!
