Deaths on the Job – Texas
Fatality figures just came out for the state of Texas. The numbers of deaths on the job have risen in Texas despite numbers fell 17% across the nation. The US Bureau of Labor Statistics reported that the State’s durability during the recession was part of the issue despite more auditors looking for safety violations out in force. Work-related deaths, in the state of Texas, totaled 480, which was up 4% from last year. Houston’s work-related deaths totaled 118, up 5% from last year. Now keep in mind, these are work-related DEATHS, not work-related injuries or injuries on the job. WOW!
What I was really interested in was the categories. As I expected, the highest numbers of work-related deaths was in transportation-related incidents. For Texas, that total was 163. The NEXT category, was actually assaults and violent acts. By employees? Really? While discussing this article, my husband asked a great question. As a business owner, how to work to prevent assaults and violent acts? Slips and falls, okay – we can work to prevent those by altering the surfaces everyone works and walks on. But assaults and violent acts? Still amazed.
The other categories tracked by the Bureau of Labor Statistics were as follows: Falls on the job, contact with objects and equipment, exposure to harmful substances or environments, fire and explosions and “other.” I’m not sure I even want to know what falls into the “other category.

Houston Auto Accident Lawyer
The law office of Brian Jensen was recommended to me as an excellent Houston Auto Accident Lawyer after I was rear ended by a city bus last month. I was in so much shock at the time of the accident that the thought of needing to find a Houston auto accident lawyer had never occurred to me, that is until my first set of medical bills arrived at my house. I knew that I was going to need some help in dealing with this unfortunate situation.
It was an accident and I know that the bus driver was unable to stop in time, but that won’t take care of my totaled car or my constant back pain. The law office of Brian Jensen has been a godsend in dealing with angry insurance companies. I am not very familiar with law regarding personal injury or property damage, so I was glad to learn that Brian Jensen is a respected and well informed Houston auto accident lawyer. Brian Jensen’s staff has walked me through the entire process and mad this whole ordeal much easier to get through. Accidents happen all the time and the aftermath can be greatly diffused when you have a Houston auto accident lawyer like Brian Jensen working for you and not for the other guy.
Houston Piano Sales
Posted by mel in Fort Bend Music, Houston, Review, Texas on March 23rd, 2010
Fort Bend Music Center is the place to find Houston Pianos. My wife and I recently purchased a Houston Piano for our granddaughter as a birthday gift. She had her first piano recital about a month ago and absolutely blew the crowd away. She’d only been taking lessons since the summer, but was already able to play complicated pieces by Chopin and Beethoven. The piano lessons were a gift from her grandmother and I.
We’re so proud of how far she’s come in just a few months. That night after the recital, during the ride home, my wife and I knew that we’d be in the market for a Houston piano. We pass by Fort Bend Music Center on a daily basis and knew that it would be the best place to find great deals on Houston pianos.
We found the perfect size piano at the best price and they delivered it to my granddaughter last weekend. Now she can continue her lessons from the comfort of her home and her parents don’t have to worry about picking her up and dropping her off to her lessons. She’s already planning to have a private family recital for her grandmother and I and believe me we’re looking forward to it.
MWD Tools
What are MWD Tools? For starters, let’s define MWD. The acronym MWD stands for measurement while drilling. MWD tools are used in oil and gas exploration and drilling as well as drilling for water wells.

Specialty Supply is your trusted source for mwd tools, components and mwd parts. Specialty Supply is best known for their drill pipe screens. Drill Pipe Screens are exactly what it sounds like.

Need computer repair?
I’ll tell you what – I’m about to thrown my newish (7month old) Dell Laptop through the roof. I’ve already had the monitor replaced by Dell. I’m just frustrated with the thing – so much that I do involves the computer. The family’s schedule, my work schedule and work files, and of course, my all important social networking info. Ha!
The website design business in Houston offers me the opportunity to meet so many different types of people in so many different business. I get to know them, and their business, as I have to know what they are up to in order to stay on top of the SEO for their sites.
One of my favorites is Gus from J&K Electronics. J&K Electronics repairs all types of electronics in Houston – especially computer repair. There are little fine lines that you just don’t cross with computers – the biggest one is knowing when to toss it or get someone to repair it. ESPECIALLY laptops. J&K Electronics can handle just about any kind of computer repair in Houston. Laptops, desktops, old computers, as well as new computers.
I like this guy, so I’m actually thinking about not using my warranty and letting him take a peek at my laptop for repair purposes. My husband thinks I’m nuts for not exercising the warranty, but my take is…..J&K specializes in computer repair and they are factory authorized and trained. What kind of background does the guy from Dell have that showed up to my house to replace the laptops monitor the last time.
So basically what I’m saying is – you might want to consider calling J&K Electronics and let them look at your laptop or computer repair needs in Houston. They are extremely professional and have been doing this longer than the guy that Dell sent out has been alive. Just a thought!
