Anthony D'Esposito, Inspector General for the United States Department of Labor, calls into the program to discuss his appointment as the Inspector General for the Labor Department under President Trump, reflecting on his journey from growing up in a small Long Island village to serving in Congress and now his new role. He emphasizes his commitment to law enforcement and his plans to address waste, fraud, and abuse within the department. The discussion also touches on the support of Nassau County officials for law enforcement and contrasts it with areas that have been critical of police funding. The conversation concludes with mutual admiration and well-wishes for the holidays. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
The supernatural horror returns.It's been 12 years since social worker Cassie discovered a mysterious mould in her home, invisible to almost everyone except her. Now the fungus has spread - its glowing spores a major global health threat, infecting the brains of those who inhale them. But many refuse to take seriously a menace they cannot see. When spores erupt at a care home in Wales, Cassie's son Bryn and 30 residents are exposed to infection. But how could this have happened when just days earlier the building was declared mould-free by a mycelium-sighted Inspector? For Bryn there is only one explanation: not everyone who claims to see the mould can be trusted. But who is this rogue Inspector and why would they lie? In his search for answers, Bryn's fraught relationship with Cassie will be tested to the limit as they battle to stop the fungus before the looming pandemic can take hold. In Greek mythology, Cassandra was condemned to speak the truth yet never be believed. A story of trust and what happens when we lose it. And of a hidden threat destroying the very thing that makes us powerful. Written and created by Marietta KirkbrideCassie ….. Kate O'Flynn Bryn ….. Ben Skym Helen ….. Laurel Lefkow Ethan .....

The NDP government tried to throttle opposition to a drug use site slated for the North Logan neighbourhood by scheduling only one in-person meet-up. Episode 59 explains what they heard at two more hastily-added sessions this week. (Sorry for the blizzard delay!)Part 1- In November, Winnipeg Free Press columnist Dan Lett criticized neighborhood opposition to the first proposed location for a safe consumption site east of Main Street because "they make them safer and cleaner." His uninformed opinion clearly failed to sway the residents and businesses west of Main Street, who have voiced significant concern about the unsafe conditions already tolerated by elected officials and police around 366 Henry Avenue, where Wab Kinew now wants to open an SCS. In fact, the experiences they described last week and again this week demonstrate how proponents of enabling users of drugs like fentanyl and meth are killing the viability of Winnipeg's core area with suicidal empathy. At Monday night's public meeting, Housing and Addictions Minister Bernadette Smith- who is MLA for the area- showed how disconnected she is from the reality her constituents live with, as she claimed "We are focused on safety and security in the community. Police will be there to make sure enforcement is happening." Ed Gallos, owner of the roofing company next door to the proposed SCS, rebuked her: "I'm not very confident in the Winnipeg Police Service... we have to barricade our business, we look like a bunker from the Second World War."You'll hear the comments and questions voiced at the Chinese Cultural Centre by people who have suffered repeated serious violent incidents with no meaningful response by Winnipeg Police or the Winnipeg Police Board. 13.40 Part 2- The North Logan community held their own meeting on Tuesday night at Pampanga Hall across from 366 Henry. Stakeholders, which includes industrial, food services, and child program facilities, continued to press Smith and project operators, the Aboriginal Health and Wellness Centre, for substantive answers to their safety concerns. This isn't 'NIMBYism' as Kate Kehler of the ultra-leftist Social Planning Council insinuated- it's democracy.17.30-Listen to Bernadette Smith tell the meeting "this is meant to bring the crime levels down." Yet a businessman pointed out that as Siloam Mission has expanded and line-ups outside have quadrupled, social disorder has not been addressed, with officials not even ensuring there are bathroom facilities for the indigent. Instead, cleaning up the human waste left in nearby doorways and on properties became the responsibility of the affected private citizens. The resulting tensions have community members who confront the derelicts wandering through their yards and using it as a toilet fearing for their safety. There's only so much mayhem and disorder that can be inflicted on a neighborhood. Somehow, despite being their MLA, Smith had nothing to offer aside from "I'm sorry." 27.50 - Unreported by the media in attendance, WPS Inspector Helen Peters answered a question about her opinion if the SCS "will make the area safer." We have the audio of her shocking reply, which no doubt ruined Dan Lett's Xmas. ******Catch up on Marty Gold's columns in the Winnipeg Sun- Dec 10- North Logan neighborhood demands answers to safe consumption site concerns https://www.winnipegsun.com/opinion/gold-north-logan-neighbourhood-demands-answers-to-safe-consumption-site-concerns/article_32e5e23b-dce4-46a8-b811-c1b4800f590b.htmlDec 14- Survey says Winnipeg Metropolitan Region fumbleslatest public pollhttps://www.winnipegsun.com/gold-survey-says-winnipeg-metropolitan-region-fumbles-latest-public-poll/article_c8fd78eb-0d97-47d9-af04-1edafcf2b6cb.htmlDec 17- Anhart's big plans for affordablehousing in Winnipeghttps://www.winnipegsun.com/opinion/gold-anharts-big-plans-for-affordable-housing-in-winnipeg/article_42efee06-df8d-49f0-9ee8-d161b68f26a2.html

Before the citations. Before the regulations. Before the arguments—there's people. In the first-ever Safe Word segment of Mining Minds, Grover sits down with longtime mentor, former MSHA inspector, and no-nonsense safety professional Jim Hoover to have the conversations most safety meetings never do. This episode strips away the myths, the fear, and the finger-pointing around mining safety and replaces them with something better: honesty, experience, and critical thinking. They break down what MSHA actually does (and doesn't do), why citations aren't cash grabs, and how perception, personality, and human judgment shape every inspection. From the difference between being compliant and being truly safe, to why asking why matters more than memorizing the 30 CFR, this episode is about understanding safety—not weaponizing it. You'll hear real stories from the pit and the inspector's side, hard lessons learned early in a career, and why building relationships—rather than hiding when inspectors show up—can make operations safer for everyone. Brass in—join the conversation and be a part of The Safe Word.

Además, describe que la captación es online y se centra en jóvenes con problemas.

China has launched a nationwide inspection of fire hazards in high-rise residential and public buildings after a major blaze in Hong Kong killed at least 128 people, with about 200 others still unaccounted for, authorities said.中国政府宣布,香港发生重大火灾造成至少128人死亡、约200人下落不明后,中国已启动全国范围的高层住宅和公共建筑消防隐患排查工作。In a notice issued on Saturday, the Work Safety Committee of the State Council instructed local governments to immediately carry out checks and fix problems in occupied residential towers, office buildings, hospitals and shopping complexes. The campaign aims to prevent accidents linked to renovation work, aging facilities and blocked evacuation routes, the committee said.国务院安全生产委员会周六发布通知,要求各地政府立即对已投入使用的住宅楼、写字楼、医院和商场进行安全排查整改。该委员会表示,此次行动旨在防范因装修施工、设施老化及疏散通道堵塞引发的事故。The directive comes in the aftermath of Wednesday's fire at Wang Fuk Court, a residential estate in Hong Kong's Tai Po district. The blaze was first reported at 2:51 pm and quickly escalated to the city's highest alarm level, sending thick smoke billowing into the sky and spreading to seven of the development's eight apartment blocks. All visible flames were brought under control by Saturday.该指令是在周三香港大埔区旺福苑住宅区发生火灾后发布的。火灾于下午2时51分首次报告,迅速升级至全市最高警报级别,浓烟滚滚升腾至天空,并蔓延至该发展区八栋公寓楼中的七栋。截至周六,所有可见火势均已得到控制。Initial findings indicate the fire started on lower-floor scaffolding and spread rapidly due to flammable insulation materials and bamboo structures used for exterior wall repairs. The buildings were undergoing maintenance at the time, and the outer surfaces were covered with construction netting and othercombustible materials, investigators said.初步调查结果显示,火灾始于低层脚手架,因外墙维修使用的易燃隔热材料和竹制结构而迅速蔓延。调查人员称,事发时建筑正处于维护阶段,外表面覆盖着施工防护网及其他可燃材料。Under the new nationwide measures, checks will target risky renovation practices, such as unapproved construction, use offlammable insulation and hot work like welding in crowded indoor spaces.根据新出台的全国性措施,检查将重点针对高风险装修行为,例如未经批准的施工、使用易燃隔热材料,以及在拥挤的室内空间进行焊接等热作业。Inspectors will also focus on malfunctioning fire-fighting facilities, includingfire hydrants, sprinklers, smoke-control systems and emergency exits. Problems such as piles of combustible debris, blocked escape passages and electric bikes parked or charged in hallways are also listed as common hazards requiring immediate attention.检查人员还将重点排查消防设施故障问题,包括消防栓、喷淋系统、排烟系统及紧急出口。堆积的易燃杂物、被堵塞的逃生通道、以及停放在走廊或在走廊充电的电动自行车等隐患,也被列为需要立即处理的常见安全隐患。Local authorities have been told to combine self-inspections by building managers with random official checks. Hazards must be fixed without delay, and major issues will be subject to tighter supervision, the notice said. Severe violations will be punished.地方当局已接到通知,要求将建筑管理人员的自查与官方抽查相结合。通知称,隐患必须立即消除,重大问题将受到更严格的监督,严重违规行为将受到惩处。Officials said the campaign is intended to close safety loopholes and reduce the risk of large-scale tragedies, particularly in densely populated high-rise communities.政府人员表示,此次行动旨在堵塞安全漏洞,降低大规模悲剧发生的风险,尤其是在人口密集的高层住宅区。combustibleadj. /kəmˈbʌs.tə.bəl/可燃的,易燃的fire hydrants消防拴
In this episode, Paul talks about how to determine the ampacity of single insulated conductors, such as THHN, when applying ampacity given in Table 310.16 and how to apply adjustments and corrections per 310.15(B)(1)(1) and 310.15(C)(1) for the 2023 National Electrical Code. However, these fundamental basics of conductor ampacity ring true regardless of the NEC you are using. This is a LONG podcast to prepare for nearly 2 hours of podcast instructions as Paul attempts to paint a mental picture of ampacity and how it impacts the conductors.Listen as Paul Abernathy, CEO and Founder of Electrical Code Academy, Inc., the leading electrical educator in the country, discusses electrical code, electrical trade, and electrical business-related topics to help electricians maximize their knowledge and industry investment.If you are looking to learn more about the National Electrical Code, for electrical exam preparation, or to better your knowledge of the NEC, then visit https://fasttraxsystem.com for all the electrical code training you will ever need by the leading electrical educator in the country with the best NEC learning program on the planet.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/electrify-electrician-podcast--4131858/support.
