148588 tn?1465778809 economy, creating 20,000 direct construction and manufac-turing jobs and 119,000 indirect jobs. 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 f tn I spotlight at a dinner theater, so I have to climb 3 different ladders 4 times a day and on double days I have to climb it 8 times. And the docs told me after 3 months "No more climbing" it's too much strain on your uterus. As far as carrying heavy objects... They say if you did it before continue on until you feel the first real strain. I carry 30-40lbs of plates, food, and lids on a tray several times a day and I'm doing just fine.
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 m tn With regards to asbestos exposure, he should discuss the situation with other employees, his employee health and safety representative, and his employers. The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) can provide more information or make an inspection.

Avatar f tn Of course it is. Low impact exercise is recommended throughout your pregnancy. Just don't try to push yourself to go further than you can realistically go. Your body won't try to expell your baby.
Avatar f tn I work as a flagger, which I hold a stop sign in construction zones. I work sometimes on mayor highways.
Avatar f tn I was taken out a month after I was born (nowhere serious) and I ended up inhaling something around a construction site that paralyzed me and I was in the hospital from a month and a half to a year old... it was just bad timing.... but the other day I saw this mom friend of mine take her 1 week old to bingo... I was kinda taken back, but only because of my experience.....how soon is too soon to take baby out, not camping of course theres always next year.
Avatar n tn Okay so my boyfriend is in school right now for construction and said he wants to build her crib himself... I really dont know what to think of it. I trust him i know that he could do it but idk if that would exactly be the best option.. What do you ladies think? Would you let him do it or go out and just buy one from the store?
Avatar f tn A huge toxic spill in Alberta, Canada, is raising more questions about the safety of the proposed Keystone XL pipeline, as well as the safety of Canada’s own pipeline network. The company responsible for the spill, Apache Corp., a Texas-based company, kept its size quiet for 12 days after the spill was first discovered. The Dene Tha First Nation tribe, which is dependent on much of the land that’s been destroyed in the spill, is understandably livid about the entire situation.
148588 tn?1465778809 The Trans-Pecos Pipeline is to be built for the Mexican Federal Electricity Commission (CFE) to deliver up to 1.4 billion cubic feet of Permian Basin natural gas a day, enough to meet all of San Antonio’s natural gas needs for a week. From the border, the gas will be piped inland to the Laguna region, including Torreón, for power generation and industrial use, according to the CFE.
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.

1969477 tn?1327548419 I work at a dog day care/boarding & grooming service. The indoor play yards where the dogs go to the bathroom are mopped regularly with a very strong industrial bleach solution that burns all of our eyes terribly & makes all of the dogs go into sneezing fits. I have recently been feeling short of breath easily fatigued & have had several serious dizzy spells that made me unable to function. Could these symptoms be related to inhaling these bleach (& ammonia from the urine) fumes?
560501 tn?1383612740 Happy Mother's Day!! May you have all the construction paper daisies and finger paint handprints your fridge can hold without becoming front-heavy and tipping over! (Those are still the canonical Mother's Day elementary school art projects, right? Or am I dating myself?) Enjoy your day!! Hugs, Heiferly.
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 You are amazing. I have never heard of ANYONE going out and doing "construction work" on day THREE of WD. You are really tough! You will be fine. You have strength and what seems like an iron will. You can look forward to easier and easier days. Keep reading the posts on this site I have found it incredibly helpful. Keep up the good work and keep posting.
Avatar m tn dr Vinod---my weight is around 180--I take 2 75mg a day to help with the pain and swelling in my knees---seems to help--had the left one scoped in august but it still swells up--not much cartilage left in either knee----thanks for your input
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.
Avatar m tn Some bacteria change calcium sulfate, the major component of wallboard, into hydrogen sulfide. If construction and demolition debris contain large quantities of wallboard, large amounts of hydrogen sulfide can be formed. Production is greatest when the wallboard is finely crushed and when there is little oxygen, such as when the debris is buried and soaked with water.
