Ya. We talked about this back when CA had that moderate quake. They have been under drought for so long that when they do get rain, look out, it could mean a big quake. Been noticing areas that get little rain and suddenly get a lot, or visa versa, normally a wet area that suffers a prolong drought, gets larger than normal quakes for their area.

I think we talked about this over on FOG a year or two back also.

City in King Co., Washington passed an ordinance allowing police to trespass people (up to 1 year) who have offensive body odor from city buildings and parks.

Seems rather lackadaisical don't you think?"


Ebola: ‘In decades of humanitarian work, I’ve never seen such suffering’ – like something out of a horror movie

Omen? Government says all U.S. healthcare facilities need to be ready for Ebola: here’s the checklist

– While government officials and top doctors have maintained that they don’t think Ebola will become a widespread issue in the United States, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is recommending all health care facilities in the country “be prepared for managing patients with infectious diseases such as Ebola virus disease.” Issuing a facility preparedness “checklist,” the CDC recommended that facilities begin reviewing their infection control policies and procedures now. “Facilities should also define the individual work practices that will be required to detect the introduction of a patient with [Ebola virus disease] or other emerging infectious disease, prevent spread and manage the impact on patients, the facility and staff,” the CDC wrote. Here are some of the recommendations straight from the checklist:

Begin education and refresher training for [health care professionals] on [Ebola virus disease] signs and symptoms, diagnosis, how to obtain specimens for testing, appropriate PPE use (including putting on and taking off PPE), triage procedures (including patient placement), HCP sick leave policies, how and to whom EVD cases should be reported, and procedures to take following unprotected exposures (i.e., not wearing recommended PPE) to suspected EVD patients at the facility. •Ensure laboratories review procedures for appropriate specimen collection, transport, and testing of specimens from patients who are suspected to be infected with Ebola virus. •Review policies and procedures for screening and work restrictions for exposed or ill HCP, and ensure that HCP have ready access to medical consultation, including via telephone. •Designate points of contact within the facility responsible for communicating with public health officials and providing internal updates for HCPs and volunteers.
