  • FORUM: Sixth Committee of the General Assembly (Legal)
    FORUM: Sixth Committee of the General Assembly (Legal) QUESTION OF: Establishing guidelines to ensure better and safer working conditions in quar- ries and mines STUDENT OFFICER: Jacqueline Schnell POSITION: Main Chair INTRODUCTION "Every coal miner I talked to had, in his history, at least one story of a cave-in. 'Yeah, he got covered up,' is a way coal miners refer to fathers and brothers and sons who got buried alive.“ ~ Jeanne Marie Laskas As stated in the quote above, every miner knows the risks it takes to work in such an industry. Mining has always been a risky occupation, es- pecially in developing na- tions and countries with lax safety standards. Still today, thousands of miners die from mining accidents each year, especially in the pro- cess of coal and hard rock mining, as can be seen in the diagram below. Although the number of deadly Source: see: IX. Useful Links and Sources: XI. Statistics to mine accidents accidents is declining, any fatal accident should still be considered a tragedy, and definitely must be prevented in advance. It seems totally irresponsible and reprehensible that while technological improvements and stricter safety regulations have reduced coal mining related deaths, accidents are still so common, most of them occurring in developing countries. Page 1 of 14 AMUN 2019 – Research Report for the 6th committee Sadly, striving for quick profits in lieu of safety considerations led to several of these tremendous calamities in the near past. Only in Chinese coal mines an average of 13 miners are killed a day. The Benxihu colliery disaster, which is believed to be the worst coal mining disaster in human history, took place in China, as well, and cost 1,549 humans their lives.

    PUBLISHED OCCASIONALLY BY THE FRIENDS OF THE BANCROFT LIBRARY UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, BERKELEY, CALIFORNIA 94720 No. $4 January 1973 ccThe Gentlest of Women " "I HAVE DECIDED to resign from the Board of Regents and will do so at once." So wrote Phoebe Apperson Hearst from Cairo in a thirty- two page letter dated February ioth, 1905, ad­ dressed to Benjamin Ide Wheeler, President of the University of California. And thus she pro­ posed to end an association which had begun in 1891 when she offered to contribute funds to be used for scholarships for women students and continued in 1897 when she was appointed to the Board to fill the unexpired term of Regent Charles F. Crocker. Her reasons were several—her ill health which would force her to live abroad for a number of years, returning to California only during the summer months, and her convic­ tion that it was not right to hold the office when she could not attend more than three meetings a year. Someone should be appointed who can do Phoebe Apperson at the time of her marriage to the work required. I feel as deep an interest George Hearst. in the University as ever, and this is why I feel I should no longer hold the office. his files were destroyed by the Berkeley fire of This interesting, hitherto unknown letter 1923.

Gramopadhye Dr. Douglas Wiegmann Dr. Sandra K. Garrett ABSTRACT Historically, mining has been viewed as an inherently high-risk industry. Nevertheless, the introduction of new technology and a heightened concern for safety has yielded marked reductions in accident and injury rates over the last several decades. In an effort to further reduce these rates, the human factors associated with incidents/accidents need to be addressed.

  • Legislators of California
    The Legislators of California March 2011 Compiled by Alexander C. Vassar Dedicated to Jane Vassar For everything With Special Thanks To: Shane Meyers, Webmaster of JoinCalifornia.com For a friendship, a website, and a decade of trouble-shooting. Senator Robert D. Dutton, Senate Minority Leader Greg Maw, Senate Republican Policy Director For providing gainful employment that I enjoy. Gregory P. Schmidt, Secretary of the Senate Bernadette McNulty, Chief Assistant Secretary of the Senate Holly Hummelt , Senate Amending Clerk Zach Twilla, Senate Reading Clerk For an orderly house and the lists that made this book possible. E. Dotson Wilson, Assembly Chief Clerk Brian S. Ebbert, Assembly Assistant Chief Clerk Timothy Morland, Assembly Reading Clerk For excellent ideas, intriguing questions, and guidance. Jessica Billingsley, Senate Republican Floor Manager For extraordinary patience with research projects that never end. Richard Paul, Senate Republican Policy Consultant For hospitality and good friendship. Wade Teasdale, Senate Republican Policy Consultant For understanding the importance of Bradley and Dilworth. A Note from the Author An important thing to keep in mind as you read this book is that there is information missing. In the first two decades that California’s legislature existed, we had more individuals serve as legislators than we have in the last 90 years.1 Add to the massive turnover the fact that no official biographies were kept during this time and that the state capitol moved seven times during those twenty years, and you have a recipe for missing information. As an example, we only know the birthplace for about 63% of the legislators. In spite of my best efforts, there are still hundreds of legislators about whom we know almost nothing.
