November 19 - November 27

Vacation! Honest! Well, almost... Just a couple of deadlines on the laptop. But I'll have no Internet connection, so the Site du Jour will have a break for Thanksgiving. Enjoy your turkey; I'll be enjoying mine while looking for the green flash... Aloha! (And while I'm gone why not visit the archives, or some of the other pages on the site?)

November 13 - EU: OSHA

European Union Occupational Safety and Health

Lovely site: not only does it include the EU's own occupational health agencies and activities, but click on the member countries, and it has both links to that country's occupational health organizations and the site in the language – there's your terminology! The interface does not seem to work well with the web browser Opera, but if you put the two letters for the country in front of the address: http://fr.osha.eu.int/ for France, or http://se.osha.eu.int/, it will work. Great translator resource!
