Cornell Global Labor Institute’s (GLI) analysis of the project has found that these numbers are unsubstantiated, and that the project will produce far fewer jobs than they claim. In fact, the construction of KXL may destroy more jobs than it creates." "KXL’s U.S. Project Budget is $3.3 billion, NOT $7 billion: TransCanada claims that KXL is a $7 billion project.
Avatar n tn Pus means there is an infection, and at this point I would see your doctor. You may have something embedded in your knee that you know nothing about, and until that is removed it will stay infected. A friend of mine woke up with extreme pain on one side of his stomach and when he went to the hospital they found a piece of metal embedded in his stomach. He was in construction years prior to this and still doesn't recall any incident where this could have happened.

Avatar n tn I would encourage you to do your homework and talk to as many people as possible. Read as much clinical research on the safety and effectiveness as you can get. If a doctor says you are a candidate, ask them what research exists that says you are. If a doctor says you are not a candidate, ask them what research exists that says why not. Hopefully this helps.

152660 tn?1291755571 Hi All! We are getting ready to begin finishing my parent's basement into an apartment for myself. We will be doing most of the work ourselves mainly during weekends and will have someone coming in to work on the floor who will be using jackhammers for probably 2 days then put in two egress windows. We will have a plumber and electrician come in to work too. We will probably have people in for 6-7 days at once and then plumber and electrician do more later.
Avatar f tn I don't know, but if your water supply has chlorine, or worse, chloramine, you should protect your lungs with a water filter that can filter those out. Find out if you have chloramine because filtering that one is more expensive. They are probably doing you more harm than the mask fumes.
1301089 tn?1290666571 Isn't this nice! We're giving those dear little drug smugglers and murderers their own park. Never mind it's American National Parkland. Funded and paid for with American tax money. I guess actually guarding it with armed Guardsmen might insult someone.
Avatar f tn I had a friend who dressed as a construction worker ( hard hat, neon safety vest) and she painted a stop sign on her tummy that said "caution BUMP" I thought it was super cute.
Avatar m tn It's really hard to make comments without knowing more. Is he working or in college? My son was unhappy living at home past 18 and so we helped him to go to the dorm at the local university. He needed to be around others his own age, and build his life and extended family. After getting his BA , he then took a Construction Engineering course, and is just finishing this up now (he's 28) He's a very responsible and well adapted guy.
Avatar m tn Dr. can this be caused by a pinched nerve. I have been a construction electrician all my life and have been involved in heavy work. I am 53 and in good health.
Avatar m tn I’m concerned about exposure to construction dust leading to silicosis. I work in a theater that’s been under construction for a few months. They are installing new stadiums and seats. I know they are drilling/jackhammering concrete, mixing concrete and other general construction tasks like that. I try to be careful to avoid the areas where the construction is heaviest but some times my tasks force me to move through them.
Avatar f tn This machine features a motor with a 2.75 hp rating. The two floor-levelers provide some amount of leveling adjustment. Performance on our durability test - simulating a half-year of usage - was fair, showing noticeable signs of wear. Safety: The "stop" button size was considered excellent. The magnetic style safety-key disengaged without issue when a user drifted toward the end of the running belt, which stopped the motor and running belt as expected.
