Navy mesothelioma

Asbestos Exposure Among Navy Veterans Navy mesothelioma   Navy veterans still are paying the price today. The Navy finally stopped filling ships with asbestos in the early ’70s, but those vessels remained in use for many years after production stopped. Prior to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) regulating the use of asbestos, shipbuilders were using it in hundreds of applications. Engine rooms, boiler rooms, weapons and ammunition storage rooms – anywhere that needed heat resistance – all had the mineral. It was in the mess halls, the sleeping quarters and navigation rooms, too. Products like cables, gaskets and valves had asbestos . It covered the pipes, pumps, motors, condensers and compressors that helped run a ship. It was in the wall insulation and the floors. The construction, demolition, repair or renovation of ships – or naval buildings on land – exposed Navy personnel to the microscopic asbestos fibers. As ships aged, asbestos became brittle. An...

‘APC Will NOT Hand Over Power If They Lose In 2019’- Senator Abaribe

The Senator representing Abia South, Enyinnaya Abaribe has warned the opposition parties that the All Progressives Congress (APC) won’t accept defeat in the 2019 presidential election. Abaribe said the APC had grown so “vicious and dangerous” and will find it hard to relinquish power if they lose. The lawmaker stated this while addressing members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) at a rally in Obingwa Local Government Area, during the visit of the state working committee. At this moment, Nigeria is at the crossroads. “This is a very vicious government. It is not going to be easy (to unseat Buhari) because we’re facing a dangerous government,” Abaribe said. Abaribe added that the APC government was swimming in corruption, but “twists everything they do” in order to cover their sins and “call themselves saints when they are the worst devil.”

Mourinho Has Made Man United Slow & Boring’- Sharpe

Manchester United have become “slow, pragmatic, boring and dated” under Jose Mourinho, claims former Red Devils winger Lee Sharpe. The Red Devils have won few admirers for their brand of football since seeing the legendary Sir Alex Ferguson slip into retirement. David Moyes oversaw a humbling fall from grace, while Louis van Gaal was considered to be far too conservative for the Old Trafford faithful. Mourinho has put United back into contention for major honours, but he too has been accused of favouring a defensive mindset which stands in stark contrast to the attacking philosophies being embraced at arch rivals Manchester City and Liverpool. Sharpe told PA Sport on the club’s current position, with silverware having eluded them in 2017-18: “For me it was a pretty disappointing season and not entertaining enough. “There are clubs with certain identities and United have never been a 1-0 team that sits back and rests on its laurels. “You’ve got the blue side of Manchester under Pep [Gua...
