Seriously If you agree to report them, and the treaty doesn't specify a time period then it's for as far as your able; there are farmers in France that would be very happy if somebody would come in and clear all of that old chemical shit and unexploded munitions from their fields and yes Mustard from WW I still causes burn even today. Quite a bit of chemical weapons got dumped into the Baltic Sea after Germany surrendered and it's keeps turning up also.
Typical Liberal-progressive think, there was chemical weapons in Iraq period. Saddam signed a cease-fire saying he would report all WMD and to allow UN weapons inspectors to inspect for unreported WMD. He failed to satisfy the treaty and the war resumed. Nothing about old vs new WMD was needed.
Very true, we were shown many pictures of Iranian Tweens used as penal infantry, sent to wade through swamps slick with a sheen of Nitrogen Mustard at chem school, and lots of weird tanks with Cyrillic was shown on TV during the war in Iraq.

The protocol to comply with Title 29 of the Code of Federal Regulations at 29 CFR 1910.1030, which includes Use of engineering and work practice controls and appropriate personal protective equipment (gloves, face and eye protection, gowns); obviously the engineering controls were inadequate for the hazard presented and personal protective equipment was inappropriate.
The flu is an infection, you don't get it from low temperatures you get it from a virus, the best way to keep from getting keep from getting infected by the virus is to wash your hands for 30 seconds.
Seems that there was a breach in protocol at the hospital and that is likey to result in a fatality, so OSHA can give them a verbal warning, a written warning, a $5000.00 fine or a $250,000 fine. Even a Private for profit Hospital is going to take notice of a quarter million dollar fine.
I found a more reputable source ebola is listed with ID10 1-100, ID50 10-1000, ID90 50-1000 which means 1-100 virus is enough to infect 10% of the population and 50-1000 will infect 90% of the population; (on page 4) It's scary stuff. Figure a hospital-grade "kills" 99.999% (5-log) after 10 minutes contact time, a sneeze might disperse a million virus that leaves 10 virus which is enough to infect half the people who contact them, and seriously if no one suspects Ebola or Marburg, your less likely to see 10 minute contact time than you're to see 30 second hand washing.
On the plus side if you take off the barrier suit properly your going to be ok with or without a disinfectant spray down; it's just when the personel were trained, they took the training as a hypothetical situation, not a "your life depends on this" situation. This is universal, in the Army I notice the attention to detail was several orders of magnitude higher before your were exposed to Sarin than before your were exposed to teargas.
1:10 bleach solution is one of my favorites, but what it lacks is the guarentee, in this case manufacturer's product liability insurance. It doesn't disolve plastic, but repeated and prolonged contact does oxidative damage and embrittlement. It also does a number on latex paint but not immeadiatly and it will corrode metal even stainlees steel and colbalt-chrome alloy.
One problem is to most healthcare workers, all of their training on blood-borne pathogens is geared primarily toward AIDS, unfortunately HIV is a very labile with a fairly high infectious dose, so basically if you do just about anything you kill it and it remains infectious in the environment for minutes to an hour if you do nothing. Ebola on the other hand is a robust virus with a very low infectious dose (1 -10 virus), anything strong enough to guarantee a 99.999% kill rate is going to also dissolve plastic, peel the paint off the walls and corrode any metals to uselessness.
Just remember that the Healthcare consumer isn't the consumer they are the product; the insurers compete against each others for the companies the "consumers" work for. The employers, and the unions will always over-state their contribution to the workers.
I'm not saying that the heavy hand of Government should bitch slap us into subsidizing every loser's bad life choices, I am saying that hiring a third party assisting you in paying your healthcare providers is not going to insulate you from possible catastrophic costs pushing you into bankruptcy. Additionally as someone who actually works in the healthcare field I can assure you that have private insurance in no way means you are avoiding subsidizing others, and very probably the biggest difference between Government Health care and Private Health care is in the title of the clueless Bureaucrat deciding what care you do or don't get based on actuarial tables and this months numbers.
Hard to believe, a modern 1260 MWe coal-fired plant can be run by 3 people, and 2 of those 3 can spend half their night shift fishing. Put he word "Nucular" in front of anything power related and cost go up by orders of magnitude and sooner or later, Fusion isn't going to need to be plated with Unobtainium and all of the Watermelons will realize that neutron activation makes fission and fusion enviromentally equivelent. When that happens everytime someone want to build a Fusion plant the TV will be peppered with images of the Bikini Atoll Operation Castle and endlees law suits.
My favorite keyboard has those tactile switches, it came with my first store-bought computer, a 8MHz AT clone, pre-Windows 3.1, i think it had DOS 5.? on it. It's just starting to glitch after 22 years.
No he/she doesn't have to have any reason to fire you, it's actually better to fire people without a reason than with reason, just like I can quit anytime or for any or no reason. We don't let People go for frivolous reasons, letting someone go costs about $50,000.00 in our industry and of course entails a lot of emotional turmiol, but we could. Even in states like ours where you can fire anyone for any legal or no reason, we tend to keep people who should be terminated far longer than is good for either party.
What's strange about this is Comcast is usually like "sorry about your problem Sir, here's HBO free for 6 months no go away and pretend I helped you", but this guy got then to turn vicious; maybe it was the threat to turn it over to PCAOB!
The Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) is a private-sector, nonprofit corporation created by the Sarbanes–Oxley Act of 2002 to oversee the audits of public companies and other issuers in order to protect the interests of investors and further the public interest in the preparation of informative, accurate and independent audit reports. Since 2010, the PCAOB also oversees the audits of broker-dealers, including compliance reports filed pursuant to federal securities laws, to promote investor protection. All PCAOB rules and standards must be approved by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Public Company Accounting Oversight Board
Makes you wonder if the people running Comcast get nervous about being personally responsible for their corporate activities.
As a result of SOX, top management must individually certify the accuracy of financial information. In addition, penalties for fraudulent financial activity are much more severe. Also, SOX increased the oversight role of boards of directors and the independence of the outside auditors who review the accuracy of corporate financial Sarbanes–Oxley Act
My magic eight ball says the Sarbanes–Oxley Act scares the shit out of the people running Comcast. With Comcast's "stellar" billing and customer service processes, have to sign a statement that the accounting reports are true and accurate to the best of your knowlege under penalty of law has to be pretty un-nerving.
The bubonic plague was an important factor in the Thirty Years' War. Not exactly a good omen these days...
Plague is amatuer stuff, short incubation periods, only 25% fatal but easily treated, and there is even a vacine, unlike other things currently in the news.
The Establishment of the Caliphate is Daesh's over-arching goal, this is the same millenia old Sunnis vs. everybody non-Sunni thing; actually it probably even precedes Islam.
All of the models use an over estimated equilibrium climate sensitivity and therefore have always over-estimated any warming due to CO2 anthropogenic or otherwise. Even more troubleing is they always under-estimate negative feedbacks which again over-estimate any warming, this leads to the trend lines between model predictions and reality to actually diverge. I do agree the oceans have warmed, but I'm to going to lose any sleep over the Global oceans at 0 - 700m warming at a trend of 18 onehundreths of a degree per decade.

Fusion is always 10-20 years away.
That proves we're getting closer, before it as always 30 years away!
Dude you not only have room for a Beowolf cluster, but enough space for a 100 MWs to power it!

it isn't free. and we still can't keep mexican's from crossing in the south without a plague and panic driving them to flee.
<BlackHumor> Just tell the Mexicans we're putting illegals into the secret FEMA Ebola Quarentine Camps, problem solved. </BlackHumor>

IBM RPG II and of course RPG I. It reminded me a lot of PERL format programing for some reason. I don't think you can get any deader than RPG II.

Actually you can go bankrupt even with Health Insurance in the US, any idea what a 20% co-pay on a bone marrow stem cell transplant runs?
