12 Mar 09 Safety Glasses Can Be Fashionable

Safety glasses have evolved from the days of poorly fitting plastic protection we used to put on our eyes. Today, we expect more from eyewear and eyeglass manufacturers and the same is true for the companies that produce glasses for safety. It’s not enough for protective or safety eyewear to be of tempered glass or plastic, having temple and side shields for maximum coverage. These safety eyeglasses must be stylish, well fitting, and come in different colors too. Employees all over the world actually enjoy wearing their protective glasses making it a win win for everyone.

If you are an employer looking for top quality protective safety glasses, or a weekend warrior remodeling your home, you can find a large selection of styles on the internet. Many home improvement centers also carry styles of safety glasses, but they will be a more one size fits all basic style. They are a larger style and usually fit over your existing eyeglass frames. These work, however, they can fog easily. It has never been easier to find what you are looking for by the click of a mouse. If your employees like how they look and feel in their protective glasses, they will find themselves not wanting to take them off – making it safer for everyone.

Safety glass is usually made from a polycarbonate material as in a bullet proof window. In order for them to be rated as safety glasses, the lenses and frames need to comply with the ANSI standards. Protective glasses are extremely durable, safe, and can be very clear and opaque for the best in eyeglass and eyewear users. Color tints are popular for function and fashion. Amber tinted glasses are good for overcast days, gray lenses reduce glare in sunny conditions, and mirror coating is a very fashionable look. The job generally dictates what kind of eye protection you will need. If you have questions about what kind of safety glass is best for the job you are doing, you can always ask OSHA. They will tell you what is necessary if there is a question. Are you working around lasers, or flying debris? Are you in a high impact area, or around fumes? If you are in an area where liquid is a problem, some styles are better for protection from splashing than others. There are colors of frames available where even an outdoorsman can find safety glasses that have frames that are camouflage. The safety glass industry has come a long way from just clear plastic protection. If you do your research prior to purchasing a pair of glasses, you will be assured you are finding the best match for your specific requirements to keep your eyes safe.

WONDERFUL WINTERS IN OHIO

Dear Diary: Aug. 12 – Moved into our new home in Ohio . It is so beautiful here. The hills and river valleys are so picturesque. I have a beautiful old oak tree in my front yard.. Can hardly wait to see the change in the seasons. This is truly God’s Country.

Dear Diary: Oct. 14 – Ohio is such a gorgeous place to live, one of the real special places on Earth. The leaves are turning a multitude of different colors. I love all of the shades of reds, oranges and yellows, they are so bright. I want to walk through all of the beautiful hills and spot some white tail deer. They are so

graceful; certainly they must be the most peaceful creatures on Earth. This must be paradise.

Dear Diary: Nov. 11 – Deer season opens this week. I can’t imagine why anyone would want to shoot these elegant animals. They are the very symbol of peace and tranquility here in Ohio . I hope it snows soon. I love it here!

Dear Diary: Dec. 2 – It snowed last night. I woke to the usual wonderful sight: everything covered in a beautiful blanket of white. The oak tree is magnificent. It looks like a postcard. We went out and swept the snow from the steps and driveway. The air is so crisp, clean and refreshing. We had a snowball fight. I won, and the snowplow came down the street. He must have gotten too close to the driveway because we had to go out and shovel the end of the driveway again. What a beautiful place. Nature in harmonyï¿½I love it here!

Dear Diary: Dec. 12 – More snow last night. I love it! The plow did his cute little trick again. What a rascal. A winter wonderland. I love it here!

Dear Diary: Dec. 19 – More snow – couldn’t get out of the driveway to get to work in time. I’m exhausted from all of the shoveling.. And that snowplow!

Dear Diary: Dec. 21 – More of that white crap coming down. I’ve got blisters on my hands and a kink in my back. I think that the snowplow driver waits around the corner until I’m done shoveling the driveway. Jerk.

Dear Diary: Dec. 25 – White Christmas? More freakin’ snow. If I ever get my hands on the guy who drives that snowplow, I swear I’ll smack him. And why don’t they use more salt on these roads to melt this crap??

Dear Diary: Dec. 28 – It hasn’t stopped snowing since Christmas. I have been inside since then, except of course when that jerk “Snowplow Harry” comes by. Can’t go anywhere, cars are buried up to the windows. Weather man says to expect another 10 inches. Do you have any idea how many shovelfuls 10 inches is??

Dear Diary: Jan. 1 – Happy New Year? The way it’s coming down it won’t melt until the 4th of July! The snowplow got stuck down the road and the jerk actually had the nerve to come and ask to borrow a shovel! I told him I’d broken 6 already this season.

Dear Diary: Jan. 4 – Finally got out of the house. We went to the store to get some food and a blasted deer ran out in front of my car and I hit the stupid thing. It did $3,000 in damage to the car. Those beasts ought to be killed. The hunters should have a longer season if you ask me.

Dear Diary: Jan. 27 – Warmed up a little and rained today. The rain turned the snow into ice and the weight of it broke the main limb of the oak tree in the front yard and it went through the roof. I should have cut that old piece of junk into fireplace wood when I had the chance.

Dear Diary: May 23 – Took my car to the local garage. Would you believe the whole underside of the car is rusted away from all of that rotten salt they dump on the road? Car looks like a bashed up, heap of rusted cow patty.

Dear Diary: June 10 – Sold the car, the house, and moved to Florida . I can’t imagine why anyone in their freakin’ mind would ever want to live in the God forsaken State of Ohio
