		<description><![CDATA[There is NO standard or requirement for preventing workplace violence, only the vague requirement for employers to maintain a safe workplace.   Twenty-seven states have come up with their own ‘guidelines’.  Remember – standards are Required, guidelines are only recommended.  That means if the incident happens, the management has no liability because they did not disregard a requirement.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=riskwatchcaroline.wordpress.com&#038;blog=3839296&#038;post=167&#038;subd=riskwatchcaroline&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[WHY SHOULD WE CARE?  I totally buy the argument that more people are killed from industrial injuries and lightning and car accidents, than in a WV incident, but these things are usually hard to predict or detect in advance.  Think about it – the fall off the ladder, the accidental electrocution, the surprise car crash --- all more random and UN-preventable.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=riskwatchcaroline.wordpress.com&#038;blog=3839296&#038;post=165&#038;subd=riskwatchcaroline&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[One of the reasons that workplace violence incidents are so upsetting to all of us is because the person KNEW the people he was killing.  He probably knew their spouses and met their children at a company picnic.  It makes the violence more personal and scary, a whole different thing than falling off a ladder.   And it reminds us all that it COULD happen here!<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=riskwatchcaroline.wordpress.com&#038;blog=3839296&#038;post=158&#038;subd=riskwatchcaroline&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Because the gulf oil spill IS a Sea Monster – probably worse because the Spill Monster doesn’t just kill virgins and itinerant fishermen – it kills everything. 
Kills grass and insects and crustaceans (like shrimp) and also sucks the oxygen right out of the water so it doesn’t just kill everything now and then go about its business, but it
makes recovery impossible.

The problem comes in with the $30 Billion dollars that is borne and felt, not by BP, who goes on to drill somewhere else, but by the citizens of the affected states and the whole United States due to the incalculable environmental damage.

Therefore, a risk analysis is foundational, and must be understood in detail before OCR can issue meaningful guidance that specifically addresses safeguards and technologies that will best protect electronic health information.”
