OSHA inspections are down. Penalties are down. The workers most at risk are afraid to speak up. And two preventable crises are claiming lives that should not be lost: the extreme heat epidemic that kills workers at dramatically higher rates if they are Latino or Black, and a growing wave of accelerated silicosis among young countertop fabricators exposed to engineered stone products so high in silica that they have been banned in Australia. On today's episode of America's Work Force Union Podcast, National COSH Associate Director Katelyn Parady describes what is happening to workers right now and what workers, unions and advocates are doing to fight back. She covers the creative organizing happening at the city, state and supply chain level to address heat in the absence of a federal standard, the preemption laws being used in Texas and Florida to block rather than create protections and National COSH's preparations to call for a national ban on engineered stone as young Latino immigrant fabricators in their 20s and 30s continue to need double lung transplants and lose their lives.

Real Estate Expert & Best-Selling Author, Gerald Lucas discusses 3 summer home fire hazards and how to avoid them.
We return to Shadowdark environmental threats by delving deeply into underground hazards. Among the dangers we discuss are collapsing tunnels, fungal forests, and the fun-but-dangerous Goonies-style water slides. Inspiration for these threats comes from Ken's Mörka Norden campaign, which features a Viking-inspired alternative universe ... and a trek underground to explore the "Deep Crawl" in search of the nefarious Rat King.

Fluent Fiction - Hungarian: Nature's Trials: A Hike Amid Bükk Park's Hidden Hazards Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/hu/episode/2026-07-09-22-34-02-hu Story Transcript:Hu: A Bükk Nemzeti Park zöldellő erdei csendben várták Istvánt és Zsófiát.En: The forests of the Bükk Nemzeti Park quietly awaited István and Zsófia.Hu: A madarak csicsergése és a levelek lágy susogása kísérte őket nyári túrájukon.En: The chirping of birds and the soft rustling of leaves accompanied them on their summer hike.Hu: Az ösvényt vadvirágok szegélyezték, a színek élénken ragyogtak a napfényben.En: The path was lined with wildflowers, their colors vividly shining in the sunlight.Hu: István karjában fényképezőgép, minden lépésével közelebb került céljához: a ritka virágok megörökítéséhez.En: In István's arms was a camera, bringing him closer with each step to his goal: capturing the rare flowers.Hu: "Milyen gyönyörű nap!" mondta Zsófia lelkesedéssel a hangjában, miközben István mellett haladt.En: "What a beautiful day!" Zsófia said with enthusiasm in her voice as she walked alongside István.Hu: A táj szépsége és a természet nyugalma betöltötte szívüket.En: The beauty of the landscape and the tranquility of nature filled their hearts.Hu: István alig várta, hogy megtalálja a tökéletes helyet a fotózáshoz. Zsófia pedig csak élvezni akarta a természet közelségét.En: István could hardly wait to find the perfect spot for photography, while Zsófia just wanted to enjoy the closeness of nature.Hu: Hirtelen Zsófia elkiáltotta magát.En: Suddenly, Zsófia cried out.Hu: Összerezdült, amikor egy méh megcsípte a karján.En: She flinched when a bee stung her arm.Hu: "Jaj, István, fáj!" kiáltotta rémült jelentéssel a hangjában.En: "Oh, István, it hurts!" she exclaimed with panic in her voice.Hu: Pár percen belül arca kipirult, légzése pedig nehezebbé vált.En: Within minutes, her face flushed, and her breathing became more difficult.Hu: István megijedt.En: István was frightened.Hu: Messze jártak a park bejáratától, sehol egy orvosi segítség.En: They were far from the park entrance, with no medical help nearby.Hu: Dönteni kellett, mi legyen.En: A decision had to be made.Hu: Egyedül is bármikor elrohanna segítségért, de Zsófia állapota sürgetett.En: He could always run for help on his own, but Zsófia's condition was urgent.Hu: Aztán eszébe jutott egy természetes gyógymód, amit valamikor egy óvodai kiránduláson tanult.En: Then he recalled a natural remedy he had learned during a kindergarten trip.Hu: Az erdő növényei közt volt egy, ami enyhítheti az allergiás reakciót.En: Among the forest plants, there was one that could alleviate the allergic reaction.Hu: Gyorsan keresgélni kezdett, közben beszélt Zsófiához, próbálta lecsillapítani.En: He quickly began searching, while talking to Zsófia, trying to calm her.Hu: Végül rátalált a növényre.En: Finally, he found the plant.Hu: Gondosan leszedett néhány levelet, összemorzsolta őket, és óvatosan az érintett területre helyezte.En: Carefully, he picked some leaves, crushed them, and gently placed them on the affected area.Hu: "Próbáljon meg mélyen lélegezni," kérte István.En: "Try to take deep breaths," István requested.Hu: Zsófia légzése lassan javult.En: Zsófia's breathing slowly improved.Hu: István mindvégig mellette maradt, kéz a kézben visszafordították lépteiket a bejárat felé.En: István stayed by her side the whole time, and hand in hand, they retraced their steps back toward the entrance.Hu: Amint elérték, azonnal felhívták az orvosi ügyeletet.En: As soon as they reached it, they immediately called for medical assistance.Hu: Várakozás közben István rájött, mennyire fontos felkészülten indulni túrára.En: While waiting, István realized how important it is to start a hike prepared.Hu: Megígérte magának, és Zsófiának is, hogy legközelebb hoz magával mentőfelszerelést.En: He promised himself, and Zsófia, that next time he would bring emergency supplies.Hu: A természetnapi kaland végére Zsófia már jobban volt.En: By the end of their day in nature, Zsófia was feeling better.Hu: A park bejáratánál állva hálásan nézett Istvánra, és azt mondta, "Legközelebb én is hozok gyógyszert magammal."En: Standing at the park entrance, she looked at István with gratitude and said, "Next time, I'll bring medicine too."Hu: Ezentúl együtt készültek fel a közös kalandokra, hogy bármikor biztosan tudjanak segíteni egymáson.En: From then on, they prepared for their shared adventures together, ensuring they could always help each other.Hu: A nap végezetével a park apró titkaival és saját tanulságukkal lettek gazdagabbak.En: By the end of the day, they were richer with the park's little secrets and their own lessons learned.

This week on Chasing the Rabbit, all five pastors are finally back around the table together—and the rabbit trails start immediately! From giant “big dumb cups,” Buc-ee's bathrooms, yellow watermelons, vacation mishaps, and Jeremy's unforgettable hot tub injury to Adam's accidental Walmart trip in his daughter's running shorts, this episode has no shortage of laughs.But underneath the humor is a rich conversation about one of the Bible's most fascinating stories: The Tower of Babel. The team explores humanity's desire to make a name for ourselves, God's purpose in scattering the nations, and the beautiful way the gospel reverses Babel through Pentecost and ultimately points toward every tribe, tongue, and nation worshiping together in Revelation.Join us as we chase a few rabbits, share a lot of laughs, and discover how God's story has always been about bringing people back to Himself.

Flooding kills more Americans each year than many storms that get far more headlines. Over 100 lives are lost annually, and most of those deaths follow the same predictable pattern. The water doesn't surprise us. Our decisions do. Today, we're talking about why. Flooding remains one of the deadliest weather hazards in the United States. Yet most flood deaths and some flood damages are preventable, if we take the right steps.

Why do so many Christians today struggle to recognize false teaching?The answer may be simpler and more uncomfortable than we think: biblical illiteracy.In a world saturated with podcasts, sermons, social media clips, influencers, and now AI-generated answers, Christians are constantly exposed to thousands of interpretations of Scripture. Some are helpful. Many are not. And if you don't know what the Bible actually says, it becomes almost impossible to separate truth from error.In this video we explore:Why biblical literacy has always matteredWhy the internet and modern media have made discernment harderHow AI adds another layer of confusionWhy knowing Scripture yourself is essential for spiritual maturityPractical ways to become biblically literateIf we want to follow Jesus faithfully in a confusing world, we must become people of the Book.Practical steps discussed in this video:• Reading Scripture consistently• Reading both quickly and slowly• Memorizing key passages• Studying the Bible in community• Asking the Holy Spirit for discernmentBiblical literacy is not about becoming a scholar. It's about building a foundation that allows you to recognize truth.Subscribe for more content on:Disciple makingMissional livingBiblical worldviewSpiritual formationLiving on mission as a follower of Jesus-------------------Take the Personal Evangelism Crash Course Here:https://www.twelvechurch.net/evangelism-crash-courseDiscover the Missional Living Map: https://missionalmap.comLearn more about 12Church: https://12church.netGet access to any tools and resources mentioned in this video here:https://www.12church.net/toolsThe 8 Essential Traits of a Disciple: https://www.twelvechurch.net/dnahttps://12church.net is about structuring your life around the call to be a disciple of Jesus Christ who makes disciples.

Beneath every major city lies a high-voltage world that powers our daily lives—and presents some of the most dangerous conditions utility workers face. In this episode, we break down the critical safety protocols for manhole and vault inspections. Drawing from Mark Savage's recent insights in Incident Prevention, we explore why these confined spaces can turn deadly in seconds due to invisible atmospheric hazards and electrical risks. We'll walk you through the non-negotiable three-person entry approach, the correct way to monitor for gas layers, and the five essential inspection steps every underground employee must master. Whether you are an entry supervisor, an attendant, or the authorized entrant, this episode is packed with the procedures you need to protect your crew and keep the grid running safely. Read the article by Mark Savage: https://incident-prevention.com/blog/manhole-and-vault-inspections-5-critical-safety-steps-for-underground-employees/ Key Takeaways Invisible Threats are the Deadliest: Over half of confined space fatalities are linked to atmospheric hazards like oxygen deficiency and toxic gases, which can incapacitate a worker in seconds. The "Rule of Three" for Entry: Safe underground work requires a structured three-person team: an authorized entrant (doing the work), an attendant (monitoring outside), and an entry supervisor (verifying procedures). Gas Stratifies, So Test at All Levels: Because gases settle into different layers, crews must test the top, middle, and bottom of a vault before entering, checking oxygen levels first. Continuous monitoring is non-negotiable. Water Hides the Danger: Standing water must be pumped out before an inspection begins. It can compromise insulation, obscure trip hazards, and create deadly conductive paths. Q&A Segment Q: Why are atmospheric hazards considered the greatest risk in manholes and vaults? A: Atmospheric hazards—like oxygen deficiency, flammable gases, and toxic contaminants—are completely invisible and account for over half of all confined space fatalities. Because conditions in an underground vault can change rapidly due to leaks or environmental factors, a worker can be incapacitated in seconds without continuous gas monitoring. Q: What is the proper sequence and method for testing the air in a confined space? A: According to OSHA standards, workers must use a four-gas monitor to test oxygen levels first, followed by flammable gases, and finally toxic contaminants. Crucially, testing must be done at the top, middle, and bottom of the space before entry because different gases settle at different depths. Once inside, continuous monitoring in the worker's breathing zone is required. Q: What are the five critical tasks workers must complete during a vault inspection? A: Assess the site for physical hazards and structural damage at the surface. Evaluate equipment for thermal damage, arcing, or stray voltage. Remove water and debris to eliminate conductive paths and uncover hidden hazards. Confirm structural integrity of the vault walls, ladders, and ceilings. Document and report all findings, including atmospheric readings and photographs of anomalies. #UtilitySafety #ConfinedSpace #LinemanLife #UndergroundUtility #SafetyFirst Subscribe to Incident Prevention Magazine - https://incident-prevention.com/subscribe-now/ Register for the iP Utility Safety Conference & Expo - https://utilitysafetyconference.com/ _______________________________ This podcast is sponsored by T&D Powerskills.

Aotearoa lacks a coherant complete approach to reducing the risk of natural hazards, according to a new report commissioned by on the country's largest insurers. AIG estimates that over the past 15 years the direct cost of natural hazards has been $4.2 billion a year. With 95 percent of that going directly to response and recovery, and just 5 percent to reducing future risk. Tasman mayor Tim King spoke to Lisa Owen.
Canyoning combines hiking, climbing, rappelling, swimming, and navigating through narrow canyons carved by water, creating one of the most exciting adventure sports in the outdoors. However, the same features that make canyoning thrilling also create significant risks. Participants may face foot entrapment in fast-moving water, where a trapped foot can lead to drowning. Rope-related incidents, including improper rigging, equipment failure, and rappelling errors, can result in serious injury or death. Powerful waterfalls and recirculating pools, often called “hydraulics” or “keepers,” can trap swimmers underwater. Cold water exposure and prolonged immersion can lead to hypothermia, even in warm weather. Wet suits are essential, but have hidden dangers. Flash floods, falling rocks, slippery surfaces, exhaustion, and limited access to emergency rescue further increase the danger. In this fascinating episode, Dr. Benny Chen explores the unique hazards of canyoning and the essential skills, preparation, and decision-making required to safely enjoy this challenging sport.

While increasingly hostile weather has played a role in growing annual catastrophe losses that now average $132 billion globally, it's actually non-hazard factors such as oil prices, construction materials, and labor costs that account for 80-90% of the cost. That's the surprising research finding from global reinsurance broker Gallagher Re. The lines between “primary” and “secondary” perils also need rethinking.Former Florida Deputy Insurance Commissioner Lisa Miller sits down with the chief researcher, and with the chief risk officer of one of Florida's largest property insurance companies to discuss the importance of considering these non-hazard factors in rate calculations, and the need for better building codes, resilience efforts, and potential legislative incentives to mitigate risks and reduce costs. Show Notes Joining Host Miller are Steve Bowen, Gallagher Re's Chief Science Officer and researcher behind the Q1 2026 Gallagher Re Natural Catastrophe and Climate Report, and Ryan Hodges, Senior Vice President of Risk Management for American Integrity Insurance Company, headquartered in Tampa, Florida. The focus was on the practical implications the research findings have for insurance companies, reinsurers, policymakers, builders, and consumers alike. Miller opened the discussion by noting that global insured catastrophe losses now average approximately $132 billion annually and that severe convective storms − including thunderstorms, hail, tornadoes, and straight-line winds − have become major contributors to those losses. The Rise of “Non-Hazard” Cost DriversWhile climate and weather patterns certainly matter, the Gallagher Re report concludes they account for only about 10% to 20% of the increase in insured losses over the past two decades. “When you're looking at the overall frequency of events, there's not really any data that suggests that we're seeing an overall increase in the number of the events themselves,” said Bowen, who is also a meteorologist. “We're starting to see some emerging signs that events are behaving a bit more radically, there's more volatility than what we've seen before in the past, but it wasn't enough of an obvious signal for us to feel like this is really what's driving why losses continue to go up.” The report found that 2008 marked a major shift in replacement and exposure costs, and identifies several major non-hazard contributors to the remaining 80% to 90% of rising loss severity, including: Oil price increases affecting asphalt roofing materials Rising labor and construction costs Supply chain disruptions Inflation and consumer price index increases Claims litigation and social inflation Urbanization and population growth in exposed regions All of the above have led to the majority of higher replacement costs following catastrophes.Urbanization and the Expansion of RiskOne of the non-hazard factors noted is the increasing concentration of...

Car ads keep glorifying speed while broadcast rules obsess over seat belts and ignore speeding, and horsepower hype is called mostly useless for real driving. In Europe, some brands accept lower Euro NCAP scores—often split by trim and optional safety packs—while U.S. ratings feel like everyone gets five stars as testing lags and funding stays thin. A federal bill would tack on an annual EV fee to help pay for roads. Waymo's earn side-eye for flooding blunders, blocking fire stations, and questionable “evidence” from a doctor-backed pro-AV letter, while bold promises claim humans will barely drive in 10 years. NYC may force repeat speed-camera offenders to install GPS-based speed limiters with a daily fee. Recalls include Jeep Cherokee rollaway risk, Tesla and Mercedes display/camera glitches, plus Waymo flood-response issues, and an AV Ride probe for crashes and red-light behavior.Support the show!https://www.iihs.org/news/detail/more-car-ads-promote-vehicle-performance-despite-dangers-of-speedhttps://www.msn.com/en-us/autos/buying/why-some-carmakers-are-intentionally-settling-for-lower-safety-scores/ar-AA23uFoKhttps://arstechnica.com/cars/2026/05/bipartisan-bill-in-congress-includes-130-annual-ev-registration-fee/https://www.nytimes.com/2026/04/30/nyregion/nyc-speed-limiters-cars-frequent-speeders.htmlhttps://futurism.com/advanced-transport/waymo-recall-floodwaterhttps://opmed.doximity.com/articles/an-open-letter-from-the-medical-community-on-america-s-road-deathshttps://www.detroitnews.com/story/business/autos/2026/05/18/elon-musk-sees-broad-use-of-self-driving-cars-without-human-monitors/90144524007/https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/rcl/2026/RCLRPT-26V290-1107.pdfhttps://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/rcl/2026/RCLRPT-26V283-7135.pdfhttps://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/rcl/2026/RCLRPT-26V281-7837.pdfhttps://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/rcl/2026/RCLRPT-26E026-6527.pdf

In this special episode of The Corporate Counsel Show, produced in partnership with LegalVision, we explore how law departments can better support their workplaces in the face of increasing regulatory scrutiny of psychosocial hazards, especially in the age of AI. Host Jerome Doraisamy speaks with LegalVision head of enterprise James True about the work of his team and the broader firm, why no law department can ignore the risks inherent with psychosocial hazards, how and why there is a nexus between safety risks from AI and psychosocial hazards, the state of affairs for legislative change nationwide, and how well law departments are doing when it comes to managing psychosocial hazards. True also delves into what increased regulatory scrutiny and a changing legislative environment mean for business operations, the questions that law departments must be asking in order to best serve their workplaces, how in-house teams can navigate the onboarding and utilisation of AI while upholding duties to avoid psychosocial hazards, and practical steps to be taken.

With the 2026 Everest season now firmly underway and the icefall finally open, Sam and Adrian are back for their second installment of armchair mountaineering coverage. Sam opens with a somber news section, paying tribute to two losses that hit close to home in the outdoor community: Bernie Rosow of Mammoth and Will Stanhope of BC, killed in separate incidents within days of each other. Adrian knew both casually, and reflects on what made each of them so magnetic — Bernie grinding away as a snow cat driver while somehow getting out more than anyone on the east side of the Sierra, and Will quietly pushing the cutting edge of hard trad lines in Squamish and around the world for decades. Adrian also brings a lighter story out of the Himalaya: a Russian and Ukrainian climber who headed to Manaslu in the spring off-season, found the mountain entirely to themselves, and hung it way out there in proper old-school style — a good reminder that the vast majority of the world's mountains can still deliver wild experiences. From there, Sam and Adrian dig into the following topics from the 2026 Everest season:- The Icefall Opens: The threatening serac that delayed the season has partially fallen, a route has been threaded, and teams are moving — but the season is now running in the most compressed window of the modern era, with record permit numbers and a shortened timeline creating real human factors pressure.- Drones on Everest: Last season's successful drone trials have hit a regulatory pause, and Adrian unpacks why that's both completely predictable and genuinely frustrating — and why getting drones properly established on the mountain may be the single most important step toward making the south side safe enough for Alpenglow to return.- Topo's First Impressions and Season Conditions: Alpenglow guide Topo Mena has made his first carry to Camp Two on the south side with early reports positive. Adrian also notes the mountain is running unusually dry this season, which exposes hard ice on the Lhotse Face and adds challenge for everyone — including speed climbers Tyler Andrews and Karl Egloff, who are on the mountain chasing records.- Listener Question — Does the Round Trip Count?: A listener asks the guys to weigh in on whether a summit counts if you don't make it back under your own power. Sam and Adrian don't hold back.Follow our podcast on Instagram @duffelshufflepodcast where you can learn more about us and our guests.

After a late night church service Dawnia Dacosta began the familiar half and hour ride home. She had done the drive so many times she could have done it with her eyes closed. But as she cruised down I95 she felt her car sputter then slow. She had run out of gas. As she eased onto the shoulder, she may have thought of her mother and the lessons drilled in long before moments like this ever came. Be prepared. Stay alert. Know what to do. So Dawnia followed those rules. Windows up. Doors locked. Hazards flashing. From where she stood, she could see the glow of a Texaco sign just off the exit ramp, not far at all. As she clutched an empty gas can, she stepped into the night, convinced it would be a quick walk… she'd make it.

Joined on this episode by the one and only Jake Ryks, and here is a taste of the talking points we we're planning to cover: the importance of training, inspiring the next generation to care, taking pride in the job, recruitment and retention, when it's time to promote, what it means to truly be a “master firefighter,” department morale, leading by example, and what it means to be “the senior man.”We'll also talk about firehouse culture (hazing vs. just having fun), the importance of caring about the little things, not rushing your career goals, Jake's mental health journey and his experience at the IAFF Center of Excellence, the fire story behind the awards he received in 2024, why the fire service matters so much to him, who should—and shouldn't—be a firefighter, and how to walk the line between safe and “too safe,” and risky vs. “too risky.”Enjoy!!!
Lawyers love legal reasoning. It promises a clean, clear path through sticky, tricky territory. But legal reasoning can enable grotesque real-world outcomes, like torture, or arresting journalists, or masked government agents detaining and disappearing people. On this week's Amicus, Dahlia Lithwick is in conversation with Joseph Margulies, Professor of Practice of Government at Cornell University. Margulies litigated some of the biggest cases of egregious human rights violations of the post-9/11 “War on Terror”, an experience that informed his recent piece in the Boston Review: The Moral Stupefaction of America. Margulies explains how, when we allow obscure legal language to overshadow moral imperatives, we can end up in very dark places. The line from waterboarding at black sites to executing American citizens in the streets is a straight one. And there will be a lawyer willing to write a memo for all of it. Want more Amicus?
