3 Introduction When a fatality occurs on the job, it can be devastating and extremely upsetting for employers and co-workers. Below are some frequently asked questions pertaining to a workplace fatality and Pinnacol Assurance s subsequent accident investigation process. In most cases, a fatal accident will also prompt an investigation by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). OSHA s purpose is to gather evidence so that citations and penalties can be issued and later affirmed. OSHA penalties and citations can be substantial as much as $70,000 for a single willful or repeat violation. Citations and penalties impact not only an organization s bottom line, but also its ability to do business. This guide can help prepare employers to understand and exercise their rights prior to, during and after an OSHA inspection with the goal of minimizing OSHA liability. This guide does not provide legal advice for any specific situation or create an attorneyclient relationship between any reader and Pinnacol Assurance. For legal advice on a specific situation, you should speak with a lawyer and reach an express agreement for legal representation. Frequently asked questions following a fatal accident In the event of a workplace fatality, whom should I notify? The following organizations must be notified immediately: Colorado Division of Workers Compensation at OSHA (if regulated by OSHA) at Pinnacol Assurance at Who from Pinnacol Assurance may be in contact with me following a fatal accident? Pinnacol has a team of experts who are called upon when these tragic events occur. Claims representative Your organization s Pinnacol Assurance claims representative will be in contact with you to collect information regarding the accident and the injured worker. The claims representative determines compensability and subrogation potential and administers benefits paid. Special investigator A Pinnacol Assurance special investigator will typically conduct an on-site investigation of the accident as well as interviews with the employer and accident witnesses. The investigator s primary role is to collect information to assist the claims representative in determining compensability, subrogation potential and benefits beneficiaries. Safety consultant A Pinnacol Assurance safety consultant will typically conduct an on-site investigation of the accident as well as interviews with the employer and accident witnesses to assist your organization with current and future loss prevention efforts aimed at avoiding accident recurrence. The consultant s investigation may also assist the claims representative in properly 3
4 managing the claim. Pinnacol s safety consultants possess experience and knowledge in: Construction and industrial equipment, operations, and work practices. Applicable federal safety standards and national consensus standards. Third-party consultant Pinnacol may retain the services of outside parties such as an engineering firm or law firm or other technical experts to assist the claims representative. What will the investigation process entail? A thorough accident investigation includes, but is not limited to, the following: Gathering information about the events leading up to the accident. Inspecting the scene, taking pictures of the equipment and recommending securing the equipment if necessary. Reviewing documents such as safety rules, training records and equipment manuals. Identifying potential breakdowns in the safety process. Providing recommendations to assist the policyholder in enhancing its safety efforts. Identifying potential third parties that may be liable for the accident. Do employers and employees have options for counseling following an accident? If you or your employees express an interest in grievance counseling and do not have access to an Employee Assistance Program, please contact your Pinnacol claims representative to inquire about benefits that may be covered under your workers compensation policy. Do I need an attorney? Pinnacol Assurance may retain inside or outside counsel to assist with claim issues such as compensability, benefits and subrogation at no cost to the policyholder. However, Pinnacol s legal resources cannot represent or provide specific legal advice on issues regarding an employer s liability beyond those of any workers compensation claims filed. Employers have the right and are encouraged to consult with and/or be represented by legal counsel through the OSHA inspection process. Below are situations where policyholders are encouraged to immediately consult with legal counsel. There is an overly aggressive or large-scale OSHA inspection, including multiple inspectors, a lengthy period of inspection, multiple interviews of managers and employees, and/or the issuance of subpoenas. The policyholder has multiple prior OSHA violations or prior Repeat or Willful citations related to the current accident or investigation. 4
5 There is evidence that the policyholder failed to address a known or obvious safety hazard related to the cause of the accident. The accident involves multiple fatalities, numerous injuries or significant property damage. The accident, the investigation or both have generated significant publicity. The policyholder may be liable to third parties besides the injured employee s workers compensation claim. Other law enforcement agencies (police, sheriff, district attorney) or other agencies (EPA, CSB, Department of Health) conduct or express an interest in conducting separate investigations beyond routine first responder inquiries. The policyholder is not handling the OSHA inspection well, including being emotionally distraught, making serious mistakes or being unable to deal with the investigator. Safety services available through Pinnacol Assurance Providing the employer with basic information about the steps of an OSHA inspection, including the opening conference, walk-around inspection, document requests, management and employee interviews, closing conference, and issuance of citations. Attending OSHA s opening and closing conferences with the policyholder. Assisting the policyholder to respond to document requests by OSHA, such as retrieval of the OSHA 300 Logs or the Employer s First Report of Injury. Accompanying the policyholder on OSHA s walk-around inspection. Notifying the policyholder of any observed safety and health issues and offering corrective action recommendations. Assisting the policyholder with the development and/or implementation of improvements in the organization s safety efforts. Examples may include: Assistance with hazard assessments. Assistance in the development or updating of the organization s safety policies. Assistance with employee safety training. Service hours provided will be up to the discretion of Pinnacol Assurance and will vary depending on policy size, nature of operations and nature of the accident. Safety services not provided by Pinnacol Assurance Acting as the policyholder s representative or agent with respect to OSHA or any other agency investigating the accident. Providing specific legal advice as to the policyholder s rights and responsibilities during the inspection or during the defense of any OSHA citations. Responding to OSHA document requests or subpoenas. 5
6 Evaluating the policyholder s citations or advising the policyholder on how to defend the citations. Basic information about available defenses, such as employee misconduct, may be provided. Attending an informal settlement conference with OSHA. However, Pinnacol may assist the policyholder in identifying documents or facts that may be useful in an informal settlement conference. Advising the policyholder to contest or not contest a citation, or participating in any aspect of the contested citation process. Interacting with any media contact or advising the policyholder on public relations responses or strategy. Providing specific advice on employment or labor issues such as termination or discipline of employees found to have violated safety rules. Before OSHA arrives Select an organization representative When OSHA arrives at your door, it may be too late to decide who handles the inspection and what to do. Before OSHA arrives, your organization should designate a representative to supervise and handle all aspects of the OSHA inspection. Who should your representative be? Ideally, your representative should be your organization s safety director or someone in upper management who is well-versed in: OSHA standards applicable to the organization. Health and safety conditions of the workplace under inspection. Your organization s health and safety program. Location of records that OSHA requires employers to keep (such as OSHA 300 logs). What if your representative is not available? Because OSHA visits are typically unannounced, your organization should identify potential backup representatives as well. When OSHA arrives, you may ask the OSHA inspector to wait for the arrival of your designated representative before starting the inspection. In most cases, OSHA inspectors are willing to wait a reasonable time, up to one hour, before proceeding. What if OSHA refuses to wait? When the inspector refuses to wait, or when it is impossible for the representative to personally appear, designate a backup representative to fill in. Your designated representative can then supervise and monitor the inspection by telephone, giving instructions to the backup until he or she arrives onsite. Establish your organization representative s responsibilities Your designated representative should accompany and supervise all aspects of OSHA s inspection. The representative s responsibilities should include: Attending the opening and closing conferences. Accompanying the OSHA inspector and recording all aspects of the walk-around inspection, including areas of the workplace inspected, names of all employees 6
7 and supervisors interviewed, and identification of any photographs, measurements and samples taken. The representative s notes of the inspection should remain confidential. (For an example of the notes that should be taken during an OSHA inspection, see the Sample OSHA Inspection Notes at the end of this Guide.) Photographing all areas of the facility inspected, making certain to take side by side photographs of all areas photographed or videotaped by OSHA. Responding to all document and other information requests by the OSHA inspector. Making sure that employees are aware of their rights during an OSHA interview. Attending and assisting in all interviews of management employees. Keeping the inspection under control. The Occupational Safety and Health Act provides that the inspection shall take place at reasonable times and within reasonable limits. Within the exercise of good judgment, your representative should not allow the inspection to unreasonably interfere with work in progress or run beyond normal working hours. Partial inspections should not be allowed to expand, unnecessarily, into wall to wall inspections covering an entire facility or worksite. Never admitting violations or unsafe practices, but correcting observed violations as soon as possible. Consulting with your organization s legal counsel about difficult or special problems, such as search warrants or subpoenas. As necessary, allow counsel to deal directly with the OSHA inspector. Being courteous and polite, but firmly exercising your organization s legal rights. After OSHA arrives The opening conference Most OSHA inspections begin with an opening conference. The purpose of an opening conference is to discuss what will happen during the inspection. This is your opportunity to start managing the inspection. Here are some recommendations: Ask to see the inspector s official credentials if he or she does not offer them. Identify the organization representative whom you have designated to supervise the inspection, and inform the inspector that all inspection activities should be coordinated through your designated representative, no one else. Discuss any safety issues that may be encountered during the inspection, including use of personal protective equipment required by your organization. Require the inspector to abide by all organization safety rules. Identify areas in the workplace or documents that might reveal confidential trade secrets and get the inspector s confirmation that photographs of confidential areas or documents will be noted as trade secret in OSHA s file. Send a confirming letter or if necessary. Take good notes of all matters discussed at the opening conference. 7
8 Handling record requests: required vs. nonrequired documents During the opening conference, or sometime during the inspection, the inspector will ask to see certain records and documents. As a general rule, you should not volunteer documents not specifically requested. If your organization is served with a subpoena for the production of records or witness testimony, you should consult your organization s legal counsel. In responding to document requests, you should distinguish between those records that are required to be maintained and produced under OSHA s standards and those that are not. Examples of required documents include official injury and illness logs (OSHA 300, 301 and 300A) and your organization s Hazard Communication Program. Your organization representative should be familiar with required records and be ready to produce them as requested. Failure to produce the required records in a timely manner may result in citations and penalties. Production of records not required to be kept by OSHA s standards is another matter. By complying with such requests, you run the risk of providing damaging evidence against your organization or helping the inspector find and document violations or expand the investigation. As to these documents, the better practice is to defer all requests until the documents have been reviewed with upper management and/or your organization s legal counsel. Your organization may find that it can object to producing these documents on the grounds that OSHA s request is overly burdensome, irrelevant to the investigation or legally protected from disclosure. Generally speaking, you should take the following steps when responding to document requests: To avoid later misunderstandings, have the inspector put all document requests in writing or an . Obtain a clear understanding of when and where the inspector wants the documents to be produced. Before producing any records, make sure that they are complete and accurate. For example, are the organization s OSHA 300 forms completely filled out? Are they accurate? Keep a copy or a list of all documents provided. Overseeing the walk-around inspection OSHA s actual inspection of your workplace known as the walk around is one of the most critical phases of its investigation. The efforts of the OSHA inspector during the walk-around inspection will produce much of OSHA s evidence as to whether a violation exists. Here are points to remember: Accompany the inspector: The law provides that your representative shall be given an opportunity to accompany the inspector. You should always exercise this right. If your designated representative is not immediately available when the OSHA inspector arrives, request that the inspector wait to begin the inspection until your representative can arrive. 8
9 Employee representative may accompany inspection: The law also provides that a representative authorized by the employees, usually a union steward, shall have the right to accompany the inspection. Generally, you have no say in the selection of the employee representative. Photographs, videotapes, measurements and environmental samplings: Typically the inspector will photograph or videotape the workplace, take critical measurements, and conduct environmental samplings, such as air samples or noise measurements, depending on the type of inspection involved. Unless trade secrets are involved, you generally have no right to object. Videotaping or audiotaping employer representatives: Caution should be exercised when the inspector attempts to videotape or audiotape statements by your employer representatives. They have the option of telling the inspector that they do not wish to have their comments recorded. Take your own photographs and measurements: Your employer representative should take his or her own photographs and measurements either during or immediately after the OSHA inspection. Take good notes of what the inspector does during the inspection. Consider using your own experts: Complex health inspections involving, for example, air contaminants or noise pose special issues. Your employer representative may not have the expertise to effectively monitor or replicate OSHA s scientific monitoring. In such cases, you should consider designating your own expert, such as an industrial hygienist, to accompany and monitor those portions of the inspection. Pinnacol Assurance may be able to provide this assistance to you at no cost. Contact your Pinnacol safety consultant for more information. Correct unsafe conditions as soon as possible: In many cases, unsafe conditions are observed during the walk-around inspection. If possible, as soon as possible or immediately after the inspector departs, correct unsafe conditions observed during the inspection. In the event a citation is issued, this corrective action will demonstrate your good faith and may result in a lower penalty. Preparing for employee interviews OSHA interviews are one of the most critical aspects of the inspection. An alarming number of citations are based on statements of employees or supervisors. Advance preparation for these interviews can lessen your organization s liability. Be aware, however, that the guidelines for nonsupervisor and supervisor interviews are different. Guidelines for nonsupervisor interviews The OSHA Act gives employees the right to speak privately with OSHA. For that reason, employer representatives are generally not entitled to be present for nonsupervisory interviews. Nonsupervisory employees are typically defined as those without the authority to hire, fire, discipline or direct the work. In some cases, lead employees or foremen are considered supervisory employees, as are safety directors, salaried managers and professionals. 9
10 Even though your employer representatives may not be permitted to be present during nonsupervisory interviews, you can take the following steps to prepare employees: Inform employees that they have the right to speak or not speak to OSHA. Inform employees that they may request a representative, including a supervisor, a union representative or an interpreter, to sit in on the interview. Understand, however, that OSHA may resist the presence of any management representative during the interview. Put employees at ease and give them a heads up as to what the OSHA inspector is likely to ask. For example, employees are almost always quizzed on their safety training and the facts surrounding any alleged violations or an accident. Always advise employees to tell the truth. Intercede on behalf of employees who may be distraught or physically unable to speak with OSHA, particularly after a fatality or catastrophic accident. Employees and supervisors should not be interviewed until they feel they are physically and emotionally able to do so. Inform employees of their right to request that they not be tape-recorded and that they have the right to bring their own tape recorder. Conduct a voluntary debriefing of all employees interviewed by OSHA. When informing employees of their rights or debriefing them, you must avoid any pressure, coercion or retaliation. The OSH Act prohibits retaliation or discrimination against an employee participating in an OSHA inspection, including OSHA interviews. You should always tell employees that it is their free choice as to how they wish to conduct their OSHA interview you are simply advising them of their rights. Guidelines for supervisor interviews Unlike those of nonsupervisory employees, the statements and admissions of a supervisor may legally bind the organization. In responding to management interviews, the following guidelines should be observed: Your organization representative has the right to be present for supervisor or management interviews and should always exercise that right. In a fatality investigation, it is often advisable to have legal counsel prepare supervisors or managers for interviews and have legal counsel attend all supervisor or management interviews. Besides providing moral support, your representative or your legal counsel can assist the supervisor in making sure that questions are clearly asked and correctly answered. Management witnesses should be prepared in advance as to possible subject areas during their interview, and the do s and don ts for giving testimony, including just answering the questions, avoiding speculation and the importance of telling the truth. During the interview, or anytime during the inspection, avoid admitting violations or hazardous conditions. 10
11 Supervisors also have the right not to be tape-recorded or to bring their own tape recorder. The closing conference At the conclusion of the inspection, the inspector will hold a closing conference to discuss observed violations. The closing conference may occur immediately following the walk-around inspection or several days or weeks later. Here is some final advice: Don t be afraid to ask questions: What specific standards are being cited? Why? What is the classification (serious, repeat, etc.)? How much is the penalty? Attempts to argue or settle the citations with the inspector at the closing conference are usually unsuccessful. Instead, the inspector will encourage you to attend an informal settlement conference after receipt of the citations. Even if you agree with the proposed citations, avoid admitting violations or recognizing hazards. There may be defenses to the citations that you have not considered. Tell the inspector where to send the citations. Take good notes. After OSHA leaves Correct violations or other safety hazards If violations have not already been corrected during the walk-around inspection, you should begin to address and correct violations or other safety hazards observed during the inspection. Failure to correct an unsafe condition pointed out by the inspector could result in a willful violation and significantly higher penalties. Receiving the citations Typically, citations are mailed to the employer within several days to several weeks after the closing conference. All citations must be issued within six months of the start of the inspection. Upon receipt of the citations, you must post a copy at the workplace that was inspected. If the work has been completed at the site of the inspection, for example, at a construction site, then the citations should be posted at your organization s main office. The citations must be posted until the violations are abated or for three working days, whichever is longer. Failure to observe these posting requirements may result in additional citations. Informal settlement procedures You have 15 working days from the receipt of a citation to contest the citations. Prior to that time, you may request an informal settlement conference with the OSHA Area Office to negotiate a settlement. In most cases, a reduction of the assessed penalty or a modification of the abatement date can be obtained. It is also possible to have the citation withdrawn or recategorized to a lesser classification, i.e., from Serious to Other. Settlements can also be reached after the citations are contested. 11
12 Appeal procedures Formal appeals are initiated by filing a Notice of Contest with the OSHA area director within 15 working days of receipt of the citations. You may contest the violation, the proposed penalties, the abatement deadline or all three. The best practice is to contest all three. Citations not timely contested may not be appealed, and no extensions of time are available. To avoid default, you should watch for the citations in the mail following the closing conference and then make certain that the 15-working-day contest deadline is strictly observed. The filing of a Notice of Contest stops the abatement requirements. The abatement period does not begin to run again until the case is settled or the Review Commission or the court issues a final order affirming the violation. Once a Notice of Contest has been filed with the area director, OSHA transfers the case to its attorneys in the Solicitor s Office of the U.S. Department of Labor. The case is also sent to the federal Occupational Safety and Health Review Commission, a separate federal agency charged with adjudicating contested citations. The Review Commission assigns the case to an administrative law judge. Such judges are located throughout the country. Procedures before administrative law judges are similar to those in many courts. Pleadings, pre-hearing motions, discovery, hearing and post-hearing procedures are governed by the Review Commission s Rules of Procedures. Simplified proceedings are available for small cases. If the case does not settle, a hearing will be held before the administrative law judge, usually within nine to12 months after the citations are issued. The judge will issue a written decision affirming or denying the citations and, for affirmed citations, setting the penalty and the abatement date. Review of administrative law judge decisions is conducted by the three-member Review Commission in Washington, D.C. Although any party may request review, or any member of the Commission may call the decision on his or her own motion, review is not a matter of right. Appeals of Review Commission decisions are taken directly to the U.S. Court of Appeals. 12

Kevin Nolan insists West Ham will not be dragged into a relegation fight.
A 2-1 loss at Aston Villa on Sunday made it seven defeats in 11 League games for Sam Allardyce's men.
And, West Ham are reported to be in no hurry to offer Allardyce a contract extension until the club's safety has been assured.
The 11th-placed East London side are now only seven points above the drop zone.
The Hammers return to action on Monday February 25 when they host London rivals. Tottenham. The squad have jetted to Dubai in the meantime for warm weather training
Skipper Nolan said: "We've got two weeks between matches and when you lose a game you want to get back out there as soon as possible.
"But it does give us the chance to relax a bit this week and look at what we've done this season and what we've got to do between now and the end of the season.
"By the time the Tottenham game comes around we'll be ready and raring to go for a home local derby. We'll be looking forward to it."
Defeat at Villa Park means the Hammers have now lost six successive League games away from home.
But Nolan felt the performance at Villa was encouraging and insists their luck will turn.
He added: "We've got to keep believing and keep putting in performances like that.
"On so many occasions we were just a matter of inches away from getting on the end of crosses and balls in the box.
"You've got them clearing off the line, they're getting blocks in, the ball's going just past the post.
"If we keep producing the form we're showing, and what I mean by that is that the performance on Sunday was good, and keep producing the amount of chances we're making, I'm sure it's going to turn for us."
Meanwhile, Gus Poyet is the shock name in the frame if West Ham do not renew Sam Allardyce's contract at the end of the season.

The summer is knocking at your doorstep and before you know you're sweating profusely. The fans and ACs are put to some rigorous work, yet there's something missing!
Coconut and straw? Paper fan? No…
What you're missing is probably a nice dip in fresh and cool water.
Remember those childhood days, when you and your friends would jump into the river water without a care in the world?
Well this time, we're bringing back the same fun and frolic into your lives with a breath-taking Scuba diving experience at Dawki, Meghalaya.
Remember the scuba diving sequence in Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara? It's amazing isn't it? If you think it's the camera that makes the experience look so beautiful, you're wrong. Take our word; it's as pretty as it looks on screen, even better we'd say!
Wondering why Scuba Diving? Here's why…
The Underwater life is a completely different world, with different habitants and different rules. The creatures, the plants, everything will be a novel experience, something like never before.
What will take you by surprise at first will be the wide ranging mix of colour all around you. Something like a colour palette that has come alive! Each marine animal and plant exhibits a different pattern, a different colour, varied textures and various sizes.
To seek entry into this world, you need to learn to behave like the fishes; swim and glide like them, and along with them. It isn't very difficult. Just let yourself loose and there you are: one amongst the numerous fishes.
The best part about Scuba Diving is that you get to come so close to the fishes and the turtles(if you are lucky), you can actually touch them!
The joy of being underwater, of discovering the flora and fauna of the marine world, is completely unique, something you would have never experienced before.
While you're underwater, you're completely disconnected from the sounds and sights of the world above. If you turn to look, you'll probably just see sunlight penetrating through the water, that's all! It's just you and your fellow fishes all the way…
Be it the awe or love for the underwater world or the hope of discovering a lost treasure or simply the endeavour to make some new marine friends, whatever your reason is, come join us for this experience of a lifetime.
So, what are you waiting for ? :)

Happy Holidays! :)

The Metrosexual
(U.S.) "I just love this movie!" chimes Rex Reed, giving Adam Kaufman's sitcomish hookup film perhaps less cred as an indie than it would have had already. Still, the title, as well as the laurel wreaths from many different film fests, tells you that this is the high-mileage subcompact version of The 40-Year-Old Virgin. Meet (or avoid) 33-year-old nonvirgin Eric (Shaun Benson), a finicky bachelor in L.A.'s Toluca Lake area. He's looking for love in all the wrong places, while dealing with his dotty senescent father. His steadfast fussiness is contrasted with the proactive sex lives of his gay buddy Kurt (Vic Chao, not so bad) and studly buddy Leo (Nick Paonessa). On the principle that you'd rather watch a movie about a rogue than a wuss, you wish the camera would follow those two. No dice. The jokes about our perfumed and powdered urban males are few and off-target, and ignore the fact that dressing up for the frauleins is a time-proven mating strategy. But the girls can't buy a thrill in this one: the women are furniture, and the extensive (and no doubt expensive) soundtrack uses moldy '80s dance hits as wallpaper. (RvB)

(U.S.) Again with the Crash structure of separate but intersecting lives. Local director Harpreet Dehal delves into a lot of teenage angst, with disaffected youths battered, emotionally and physically, by parents, stepparents and authority figures in general. Although Dehal has trouble clarifying his characters, his visual skills are impressive. Also the cinematographer, Dehal bathes his scenes in moody blues and other dominant single colors. The camera moves restlessly (sometimes too restless) in and around the characters. Frantic close-ups alternate with occasionally steady long shots in a rhythm that favors poetry over narrative. In one of the finest scenes, a lonely, distressed boy drives into the hills. We see him, cast in a greenish tinge, through the windshield; behind him the lights of suburban sprawl glow like tiny red fires. His vehicle appears unmoored from the road, hovering almost, underscoring the sense that this boy feels like an alien visitor on Earth. According to the program notes, Dehal was only 17 when he made Oceania; the kid has a real future. (MSG)
March 6 at 7pm at San Jose Rep and March 8 at 7:30pm at Camera 12.
(U.S.) Alec Joler and Ethan Shaftel's finely made science-fiction/tragic-monster story takes a well-worn gimmick—a device that can freeze time—and comes up with an intelligent new angles on it. Dan (Scott Cordes, sort of a portly version of William H. Macy) loses his family in a traffic accident. After he recovers, he discovers a supernatural quality to the family's video camera that allows him to stop the world around him. What first seems like a Shyamalan-style study of mourning shifts into Cronenberg terrain; Dan becomes romantically obsessed with Sarah (Annie Tedesco), whose husband was at fault in the collision. She is only one who senses (painfully) the stopped time: an effect indicated by a uniquely eerie image, the slight stuttering of the pupils of her eyes, throbbing in an otherwise frozen face. Here is some of the most imaginative use of 3-D stop-time since The Matrix. The picture is soulful in addition to being technically adept. Shooting in east Kansas, photographer Ben Van Cleave finds fresh locations, big skies and a sense of vastness and stillness, all befitting a horror story of a man who is one moving figure in a motionless landscape. (I guess the jerky thing to say—and allow me to be the first jerk to say it—is that every 50 years you get a great horror film out of Lawrence, Kan., and it's almost been that long since Carnival of Souls.) (RvB)

*Who Is K.K. Downey?
(U.S.) "He said, 'Hey, kid. Do you want to snort some China?' I liked the way it sounded, like I could fit an entire country up my nose. It was my eight birthday." The excerpt comes from a book called Truck Stop Hustler by K.K. Downey. In this brilliant, scuffling comedy, Downey bears a haunting likeness to defrocked literary lot-lizard JT LeRoy, author of a book titled The Publicist Is Deceitful Above All Things, or something similar to that. Terrance (co-writer and director Darren Curtis) is a whiner, a stalker and a punching bag for even bigger post-punk blowhards in Montreal's cramped music scene. His band Black Guts has just imploded. He's separated from the love of his life, the performance artist Sue (Kristin Adams). And she has treacherously taken up with Connor Rooney (co-director/writer Pat Kiely), vicious critic-at-large from Gaze magazine. (The swine is seen literally whacking off over a picture of Voltaire.) In such a scene, Terence's best pal forever, Theo (Matt Silver), can't hope to get his novel Truck Stop Hustler published. To fool the public into thinking they're getting the real thing, Terence is talked into posing with fright wig, fedora and shades as the author of a hard-hitting, no-holds-barred, all-expenses-paid journey through the underage truck-stop sex trade. ("I licked places nobody should have to lick!") The only one unconvinced by the charade is Rooney, who is determined to undo "this no-talent she-man." All of this would make for an amusing sketch if it weren't for a fine third-act surprise and the superior comic timing of the leads. Silver's Theo, for instance, makes a fine pop-fly-size arc from bleating alterna-schlub to a figure of Tony Hendra-esque malice. Curtis could be the Buscemi for a new century, and Adam's cozy Drew Barrymore silliness is endearing. By far the funniest film I saw at this year's Cinequest. (RvB)

Shorts Program 1: Pas De Deux
The theme, "dance for two," is a natural for short films, which are usually wise to keep their character count low not only for reasons of story economy but also actual economy. In this case, the centerpiece is a half-hour film from Miles Hubley and Tom White, Folly of Two. The setup is fantastic, a mystery so artfully doled out that the audience can't even figure out what genre we're working in here for most of the film: is it crime drama, science fiction, religious fantasy, what? The directors suck us in deeper and deeper with an old cynic and a nervous newbie on an unexplained mission that involves instructions from "the note guy," playgrounds at night and waking up in a baby crib. But what separates a great short film from a failed one is whether it delivers when it comes time to provide some kind of payoff—not necessarily a straight answer but some raison d'être. Folly of Two feels like a cheat, and it's a shame. Hirsute is a time-travel tale with a similar problem, toying with interesting possibilities before conceptually throwing its hands in the air helplessly. Ironically, the most satisfying film of this batch, Personal Spectator, doesn't have a great setup—it seems clichéd at first. But it turns into an interesting comment on the nature of watching. It's the one that steps outside convention and recognizes there are only really two characters—the film and us. (SP)
March 6 at 6:45pm and March 7 at 4pm, both at Camera 12.
Shorts Program 6: What Was Lost
Jim Blashfield's claymation short Bunnyheads creates a lot of menace in a few minutes. In an automated factory, wriggling, tuber things are squashed, stamped and milled into stripped-down rabbit forms. For what purpose, we are not privy; the factory seems to be feeding on itself. Joey Grossfield's Kaleidoscope weaves together—in confusing fashion—romance and regret for a man who can't get over the horrors he saw working for an NGO in Africa. The intermittently funny This Is My Friend follows the misadventures of two slackers who cook up an "educational" skit for Native American Awareness Day at some local schools. Ed Flaherty (Guy Caballero of SCTV fame) makes a cameo as a double-talking principal. Alexandre Phillipe's The Spot is an impressionistic documentary about the exact spot when JFK was assassinated, marked by a white X in the street. Tourist gape and run into traffic to get their pictures taken; tourist trappers sell maps and conspiracy newsletters. Most of the film is done in long shot with overheard snippets of dialogue. The cumulative effect is strangely elegiac. Brett Wagner's Chief, about a Samoan tribal leader who runs away to Honolulu to forget his past, depends largely upon a terrific performance by Sielu Avea, who is a real-life Samoan chief. Plainview by Scott T. Jones takes place in a fast-food joint where a prank caller plays a cruel trick on two employees, one of them socially challenged.

We've raised £0 to help 12 different charities
- Closed on Tuesday, 20th December 2016
What is crowdfunding?
Crowdfunding is a new type of fundraising where you can raise funds for your own personal cause, even if you're not a registered charity.
The page owner is responsible for the distribution of funds raised.
12 charities, 12 months, 12 goals.
Hi I'm Amy Gardner , :) earlier this year (2016) I set myself a goal. That by the end of 2017 I would have raised money for 12 charities by dedicating 1 goal a month to a different charity every month. Some of the charities I have chosen are close to my heart and I know to a lot of other people too. I need all the help I can get by raising as much money as possible for all the charities. My aim is to raise at least £1,000 for each charity within a year. Hopefully with the power of social media and you all, we can go above and beyond the target. all 12 charities are delighted with my idea and have all kindly sent me sponsorship t shirts to wear with pride whilst completing each goal.
Some of my ideas to raise the money solo are skydiving, run a marathon, climb the highest mountain in Britain... and more. At the beginning of January I will keep everyone up to date on Facebook as to when and what goal and charity will be accomplished each month with also live updates, pictures and videos so please feel free to add me on Facebook if you would like to keep updated. Please also share the hell out of this and then hopefully it will reach more people which means more support and more money raised. I want to thank every single person who donates. Your all amazing and the most important aspect of all this.

Cygnet left in Gloucestershire after parents migrate without it
A Bewick's swan cygnet appears to have been left behind at a wetland centre in Gloucestershire by its migrating parents, conservationists have said.
The swans overwinter in Europe and the UK before returning in spring in large family groups to the Russian Arctic.
With the mild weather, the Wildfowl and Wetlands Trust said all but 10 of its Slimbridge flock had left already.
The trust's Julia Newth said it was only then she noticed a remaining family had acquired an extra cygnet.
According to the trust, the lone cygnet has attached itself to swans Wooton and Stinchcombe and their four cygnets but was still calling for its parents.
Ms Newth, who has learnt to recognise the hundreds of swans in the flock by their individual facial markings, said the separation was "unusual".
"Occasionally, cygnets become separated from their parents during migration when there is perhaps bad weather but it is rather more unusual to see such a separation before the journey has begun," she said.
"We're all waiting to see whether the parents return.
"If they don't, and it leaves with its adopted family, we will call on our extensive network of swan researchers along the 2,500 mile journey to Russia to keep an eye out for them and check whether the lone cygnet manages to stay with them."
Wooton and Stinchcombe are ringed and could be spotted with their family along the 2,500 migration route, on which they will rely on a chain of wetland sites to rest and feed.

As these AmeriCorps members leverage teamwork and demonstrate dedication to developing the skills and mindset within their students for future success, they are simultaneously sharpening their own workforce-ready skills. Along those lines, City Year Orlando holds an event each year, hosted by Orlando Health, called 18 Minute Networking. Creating an intentional space for City Year Orlando AmeriCorps members to develop relationships and a network of professional contacts, this event further prepares and positions AmeriCorps members as valuable employees with professional contacts within the Orlando community. On February 22, 2017, 68 City Year Orlando AmeriCorps members connected with more than 50 business leaders at this year's 18 Minute Networking event.
Reggie Riley, the community relations manager for Dr. P. Phillips Hospital, a part of Orlando Health, serves as a City Year Orlando board member and host for the event. "It is amazing what these young people are doing in our community. Orlando Health and I are happy to help them get a head start in their professional careers through networking at 18 Minute Networking," he enthused.
Curtesa Vanderpool with Maynard Evans High School, who attended the event as a Discussion Leader, said that "the professionalism of the AmeriCorps members is amazing. My expectations have been beyond met."
Matt Devine, a Discussion Leader with Xenia Hotels & Resorts, divulged how he felt about the event. "It's inspiring to talk to young people who want to change the world," he explained.
City Year Orlando challenged the Discussion Leaders to connect with AmeriCorps members following the event to deepen the newly forged relationships and take networking one step further – also known as their "homework" assignment!

The Kaiser Senior Advantage Plan is a replacement for Medicare coverage, according to the University of California. It is a health maintenance organization that manages Medicare benefits for the insured.
Enrollment in Kaiser Senior Advantage gives Medicare coverage to customers by using a closed network of providers. The customer chooses a primary care physician in the network who refers patients to specialists if needed. This plan suits people who want lower out-of-pocket costs and who like one doctor managing their care, states the University of California. Out-of-network services are only approved for emergency situations. Medicare benefits are completely covered by the Kaiser Senior Advantage plan.

Surge in online shopping lifts eBay
The company beats Wall Street forecasts for the fourth quarter after the sale of Skype and strong growth from its online payments business
EBay beat Wall Street forecasts last night, benefiting from the sale of Skype and strong growth from PayPal, its online payments business.
For the three months to December 31 the company reported net income of $1.98 billion, compared with $559 million for the same period a year earlier.
The figures reflected the growing popularity of online shopping among consumers, pundits said.
Shares were up nearly 2 per cent in after-hours trading, even though eBay gave a cautious outlook for first-quarter profit and revenue. "We had a strong fourth-quarter finish to an excellent year," John Donahoe, eBay's chief executive, said.
EBay's payments unit — which consists almost entirely of PayPal — reported revenues of $1.24 billion, a 28 per cent gain on the same period a year earlier.…

The director Ignacio Vilar spent his childhood in Castrofolla, a village in Petín de Valdeorras (Ourense, Galicia). On cold winter nights around the fire at his grandparents´ home, he heard immemorial stories told in Galician language. Life in the village, the relationship with nature and the stories he heard by the fire would stimulate and feed his passion for cinema.
When he was eight years old, he saw a movie for the first time and this made him feel astonished. For him, the light shining on the screen was the same as the fire at his grandparents´ home. Cinema became the means to continue telling stories. In his adolescence he entered a boarding school in the city of Ourense. There he kept on watching movies in several theaters: Xesteira, Mari, Principal, Avenida, Losada.
At the age of eighteen he moved to Barcelona and founded there, in the Central University, a film school where the great films of all times were studied, as well as editing, acting direction, filming documentaries and short films . He also initiated a project of film distribution in different neighbourhoods of Barcelona, and in many cities, towns and villages of Catalunya. The Filmoteca provides him with the opportunity to see the best world cinema.
In 1989 he won the Carlos Velo Award for the script Ollo Birollo. He returned to Galicia and started the production company Vía Láctea Films, where he directs 35mm short – films, documentaries and documentary series for television. He also directs the feature films Ilegal (2001), Un bosque de música (2003), Pradolongo (2007), Vilamor (2011) and A Esmorga (2014).

How to Get in Shape for Rock Climbing
If you're here, you already know that rock climbing is an incredibly fun sport, but challenging and strenuous as well. Getting in elite shape for rock climbing involves a lot of strength training exercises, as well as some cardio, flexibility, and practice. It also requires a specific diet, and the patience for physiological/skeletal changes/strengthening to occur in the hand bones and tendons. Follow the steps below to climb like a pro!
1Find a climbing gym, or climbing locations near you. Set aside 2 or 3 days a week to climb. Sessions should be between 1-3 hours of maximum-effort climbing. This structure allows hypertrophy to occur in the muscles involved, without over-training.
2Track your progress daily in a journal. Then, always work to achieve a new personal best. Just like in the weight room, you track your progress and slowly up the weights... The same concept applies here. (Caution: Don't over-complicate it, or waste time. Keep it simple)
3Immediately after finishing climbing, do hand, forearm, and back exercises. These include: 1) 3 sets of hand grippers. 2) 3 sets of hand grippers in a claw-like motion, with fingers straight, using fingertips and your thumb tip to press the gripper together. 3) 3 sets of pull-ups, to failure. (Once you can do more than 20 pull-ups, start slowly adding weight.) 3B) Then do 3 sets of horizontal pull-ups to failure (also known as "rows"). 4) hanging by fingertips from the hang-board, for as long as possible. Once you can hang for over 30 seconds, start slowly adding weight. Eventually, practice "climbing up" the hang board. 5) Do weighted sit-ups, to work abs and core. 6) Do trunk twists, with weight, to work abs and core. Both of these ab exercises- 5 and 6- help you to stabilize and rotate your body while climbing.
4On days you are not climbing (3 other days a week) stretch and go running. Alternate between running sprints one day, to greatly strengthen the heart and lungs and burn fat, and also longer distance the next day, to burn fat. For example, run eight 100m sprints during the sprint day, then run a 1 or 2 mile (1.6 or 3.2 km) run on the long distance day. Keep the runs extremely intense, but varied. For example perhaps run hurdles or 40m sprints on a sprint day. Or maybe run a 5K or 10K once in a while.
5Practice flexibility- before runs, do light stretching. After runs, really breathe deeply and stretch as good as you can. With consistency, you will become more flexible. The goal is to be able to eventually reach your hands about 4 inches (10.2 cm) past your toes- this level of flexibility is necessary if you ever want to able to "rest" your legs on a ledge above you, during more strenuous climbs. Overall body flexibility is important as well. Go through a complete stretching routine post-run.
6Change your diet to whatever helps you burn the most fat. (Less fat, equals less weight without a loss of strength, equals better climbing ability) For most people, the solution is a low carb but high protein diet, with ample veggies and some fruits, with an active lifestyle and many small meals. For a few people, a diet high in both protein and carbs allows them to really shred down. Also: Drink a lot of milk regardless (organic, and sugar free if necessary to burn the fat), and add one bone strengthening supplement daily (calcium, vitamin D, and other minerals/nutrients). This supplement will allow the bones and tendons in your hand to strengthen faster. Ultimately, you will not be able to climb really crucial stone until your hands themselves can support that kind of strain, so a proper diet is a must.
7When climbing, practice practice practice. Learn a route, and then drill it like it is a basketball or a football drill. This may take away from the "mystique" of climbing but it will get you good. Do the same thing with specific moves or hand holds. Practice your slopers, crimps, jugs, pinches, pocket holds, underclings, foot jibs, pinches, techniques, and grips, until you are a master at them. Practice more at something if you're bad at it or simply need to improve at it. Don't avoid it, confront it. Practice your heel hooks, drop knees, dynamics, footwork, etc.
8Footwork is key. Watch plenty of Youtube videos on footwork, especially. There have been countless times excellent footwork has been helpful, or made a hard route become easy. In fact, Youtube videos until the cows come home. They have so many excellent (and free) instructional videos out there. With ample learning, and a strict, intense training regimen, you will succeed faster than most.
9Slim your legs down. Legs are added weight- bulky legs do not contribute to a climber's body. To achieve this, do the running from earlier, and also do box step-ups. Do 2 sets until failure of each leg, after climbing (do these at the same time you work your back and hands). Also, do jump-squats- these will help build type II-B explosive fibers, which will not only slim your legs down further (which is good) but they will also give you the explosive power to dyno farther.

- Youtube has lots of great videos on how to climb using proper technique. Take advantage of this! Proper technique is just as important as strength and cardio levels.
- Get between 8-9 hours of rest each night, for faster recovery and improvement.
- When climbing, breathe deeply and focus. This will allow for better concentration and energy.
- Do not be intimidated by better climbers. Just keep going and ask them for advice.
- Do not attempt any outdoor climbing without first learning all the basics of safety.
- Do not drink alcohol if possible- alcohol weakens muscles and tendons.
- Do not look down. Do not think about heights when you climb- focus on the rock and rock only. If you think about your heights, most people then think of the dangers, and freeze up out of fear. This leads to "cowardly climbing" and a severe temporary loss of skills.
- If you feel a little too much strain in your hands, stop immediately and take about a week or two of recovery. Slight strains don't happen too often, so it's not too big of a deal to take a week or two break if one happens. But if you ignore it and keep climbing, you risk a monumental injury such as a pull or worse, and that could ruin climbing for months or years, leading to surgery or a lifetime of problems. Instead, take a week or two off and focus on improving yourself in other ways- pull-ups, running, watching instructional videos, and footwork practice are all good alternative options.
- Do not take steroids- these also weaken tendons, and tend to make you too bulky to climb efficiently.
- I am not a professional of any kind, and I hereby state that I am not responsible for any injuries occurred through the use of these suggestions, or while rock climbing. These are merely intended as helpful suggestions and a good foundation. Please do not attempt these suggestions without first meeting with a certified rock climbing professional as well as a health professional to make sure you are properly able to climb. (Legal disclaimer)
Things You'll Need
- Climbing rope
- At least 3 locking carabiners
- 2 static ropes (if top-roping)
- At least 8 quick-draws
- 2 harnesses (for you and your climbing partner)
- A belay device
- A helmet
- Climbing shoes
- Running shoes (for training)
- Loose fitting clothing for climbing
- A climbing gym membership
- Chalk bag (get GOOD chalk, and keep it DRY at all times.)
- 100% commitment. You will not see results if you constantly are making excuses, finding reasons not to climb, etc. This should come before anything else in your free time. The only thing more important than climbing should be your education, your family, and your job.
