Some tiny Schadenfreude from personal life here. I do audits on companies that perform safety inspections on lifting equipment (no surprise I read this thread). During the previous audit one of their inspectors dropped a hammer on me while he was climbing up a construction crane, I was wearing a helmet, so no injury. My first question during this years audit was: "So, can we have a look at the incident report and the actions you took as a result of last years incident during the audit?" Queue the technical director and the quality manager looking very sheepish and going "well goddamn".

That was the fastest I've ever gone from starting an audit to finding a fault with a company.

That is perfect OSHA content right there

My personal OSHA contribution is that I was required to renew my annual "how to not hurt yourself in an office environment" web-based certification today for an office that I haven't set foot in in 5 years. Still good to know I'm supposed to lift with my knees and inform my safety team about near misses as well as accidents!

So apparently hiking around old mines in CA will just kill you:

quote:

SAN FRANCISCO — Investigators are considering whether toxic algae blooms or other hazards may have contributed to the deaths of a Northern California couple, their baby and the family dog on a remote hiking trail, authorities said.

The area in the Sierra National Forest where the bodies were found on Tuesday had been treated as a hazmat site after concerns were raised about the deaths being linked to potentially toxic gases from old mines nearby.

I had to Google this for the WTF factor. There's nascent research that algal blooms can create certain potent paralyzing toxins that can be volatalized in dangerous concentrations precluding the need to drink or swim. It seems mostly theoretical at this point, like these algaes in these conditions made measurable amounts in the air but I don't think there's been evidence of gassing land animals yet. So if it is the algae and not mining gas or volcanic gas it's an early sign global warming is ready to get real weird in it's murder spree.

Blue-green algae has killed a number of dogs in the midwest and I've heard that the toxins form when the algae dies and sinks. I don't think that backpacking water filters would remove the toxins so it might be a possibility, but all dying one place sounds like better contender for gas.

Big truck in India stuck in a muddy ditch. They start winching it out.

People are walking everywhere. The steel cable clearly has spliced or frayed bits. The camera man does a close up of the loop of cable around a tree, showing how deep the cable is cutting into the tree. In the close up you can see another frayed bit.

Like i get it, you gotta get the truck out of the ditch somehow and a portable crane is probably not an option, but AAAAAAH.
