Train accident



At 09:31 hrs on 15 septembr 2013, train 2W06, the 09:25 hrs service from jafna to colombo, struck and seriously injured a track worker on the up-down Mansfield line near to kurunegala station, in kurunegala. At the time of the accident, the track worker, undertaking the role of an off-track inspector, was carrying out an inspection of lineside vegetation on foot.
The off-track inspector was struck by the train because he was standing too close to the track. His awareness of where he was standing had become reduced as he was focused on determining his location. It may also have become reduced because he needed to concentrate on some elements of the inspection.
Because the off-track inspector was working on a line open to railway traffic, he had implemented a pre-planned system of work to protect himself from train movements. However, this system of work was unsuitable for the location and task being undertaken. Had the most appropriate type of system of work been planned and implemented, then the accident would have been avoided. Other factors identified included:
  • the planner who had issued the system of work was unfamiliar with the location; 
  • the information provided to support the planner’s decisions about which type of system to select was either inadequate, or impracticable to use given her workload; 
  • it had become normal practice to plan and implement the least protective type of system of work, when undertaking vegetation inspections; 
  • senior managers were unaware that this had occurred as they were provided with inaccurate safety monitoring data; 
  • the increased workload of planners within off-track sections was also identified as a factor in the accident; and 
  • the RAIB also observed that information provided to staff on how to calculate the warning time that is required when working alone is both unclear and inconsistent.
Since this accident, Network Rail has introduced a new version of the electronic system to plan systems of work. This provides more closely targeted information about the layout of the railway and the hazards present at a given location to those planning and implementing these systems. It is also expected to reduce the workload of planners. By 2015 Network Rail plans to prohibit foot inspections on lines that are still open to traffic.
Recommendations
As a consequence of this accident, the RAIB has made five recommendations addressed to Network Rail. These relate to: the provision of information about which systems of work have been found to be appropriate for given locations; the monitoring of which systems of work are being used; the resources available within off-track sections to plan and approve systems of work; how previous measures taken by Network Rail to improve the management of systems of work were implemented; and the provision of information to staff regarding the required warning times when working alone.
The RAIB has also referred to two recommendations previously addressed to Network Rail which relate to improving the way in which the distance from which a train will be first seen is assessed by persons planning and implementing systems of work
Notes to editors
1. The sole purpose of RAIB investigations is to prevent future accidents and incidents and improve railway safety. The RAIB does not establish blame, liability or carry out prosecutions.
2. The RAIB operates, as far as possible, in an open and transparent manner. While our investigations are completely independent of the railway industry, we do maintain close liaison with railway companies and if we discover matters that may affect the safety of the railway, we make sure that information about them is circulated to the right people as soon as possible, and certainly long before publication of our final report.

What is Currency Trading?

What is Currency Trading?

Currency trading can have a couple of meanings. If you want to learn about how to save time and money on currency transfers, visit XE Trade Money Transfers. These articles discuss currency trading as buying and selling currency on the foreign exchange (or "Forex") market with the intent to make money.

How Forex Works
The currency exchange rate is the rate at which one currency can be exchanged for another. It is always quoted in pairs like the EUR/USD (the Euro and the US Dollar). Exchange rates fluctuate based on economic factors like inflation, industrial production and geopolitical events. These factors will influence whether you buy or sell a currency pair.

Why Trade Currencies?

Forex is the world's largest market, with about 3.2 trillion US dollars in daily volume and 24-hour market action. Some key differences between Forex and Equities markets are:
  1. Many firms don't charge commissions – you pay only the bid/ask spreads.
  2. There's 24 hour trading – you dictate when to trade and how to trade.
  3. You can trade on leverage, but this can magnify potential gains and losses.
  4. You can focus on picking from a few currencies rather than from 5000 stocks.
  5. Forex is accessible – you don’t need a lot of money to get started.

Why Currency Trading Is Not For Everyone

Trading foreign exchange on margin carries a high level of risk, and may not be suitable for everyone. Before deciding to trade foreign exchange you should carefully consider your investment objectives, level of experience, and risk appetite. Remember, you could sustain a loss of some or all of your initial investment, which means that you should not invest money that you cannot afford to lose. If you have any doubts, it is advisable to seek advice from an independent financial advisor.

This girl further says that she had gone to that house to see her father for the sake of sheer love and affection and had later faced this mishap.

      This 9-year old girl had been living in her grandmother's house in Panadura and because she had had a longing to see her father for sometime, she had been escorted and left in Maharagama where her father had been living -- this was during the first school  holidays.

In our experience, the most successful traders are not simply the ones who take the best positions. They are the ones that are smartest about risk management and disciplined in their strategy. They are never emotional about gains or losses. They set their profit target and loss limits for their positions, and use Limit Orders and Stop/Loss Orders to lock them in.
Limit Orders A limit order instructs the system to automatically exit a position when your target profit has been achieved. This enables you to "lock in" your desired profit on a winning position.
Stop/Loss Orders A stop/loss order instructs the system to automatically exit a position when your maximum loss limit has been hit. This enables you to cap your losses on a losing position.
Trading Discipline Professional Traders use Limit Orders and Stop/Loss Orders as the cornerstone of a disciplined trading strategy. By setting both on all their positions, they have removed emotion from the equation and are letting the market work for them.
Amateurs, on the other hand, dont use Limit Orders and Stop/Loss Orders. They stay glued to their screens, trying to juggle all their positions in real time. They miss critical action points, and they let emotion rule their decisions.
Setting Limit and Stop/Loss Orders As a general rule of thumb, you your Stop/Loss Orders should be set closer to the opening position price than your Limit Orders. If you do this, then you can be successful while being right less than 50% of the time.
For example, if you use a 100 pip Limit Order with a 30 pip Stop/Loss Order on all your positions, then you only to be right 1/3 of the time to make a profit.
Where you place your Limit and Stop/Loss Orders will depend on your risk tolerance. However, you need to be smart when setting them. If a Stop/Loss Order is too close to the opening position price, it can be triggered by normal market volatility. This means that a temporary dip can knock out a position before it has a chance to retrace. Similarly, if a Limit Order is set too far from the opening price, potential profit may never be realized.
Be aware that trading foreign exchange on margin carries a high level of risk, and may not be suitable for all investors. The high degree of leverage can work against you as well as for you. Before deciding to invest in foreign exchange you should carefully consider your investment objectives, level of experience, and risk appetite. The possibility exists that you could sustain a loss of some or all of your initial investment and therefore you should not invest money that you cannot afford to lose. You should be aware of all the risks associated with foreign exchange trading, and seek advice from an independent financial advisor if you have any doubts.
