Sacramento, CA - The injured worker was employed by Applied Materials from 1996 until 2008. During that time, she claimed three industrial injuries: a specific injury to her neck and right upper extremity in 2001, a specific injury to her neck and both upper extremities in 2005, and a cumulative trauma injury to her neck, both upper extremities, and psyche ending on her last day worked in January 2008.
The worker later claimed that in 2013, she was sexually exploited by Dr. John Massey, (an anesthesiologist/pain specialist), the physician primarily responsible for the treatment of her industrial injuries after 2007. At the time, Massey was a member of the Bay Area Pain and Wellness Clinic (BAPWC). His license has since been revoked for his sexual misconduct by the California Medical Board.

Guardian journalists on the role of their outfits in their reporting, and the importance of pockets
Sat 8 May 2021 03.00 EDT
What do you imagine journalists wear to work? Three-piece vanilla silk suits, like Tom Wolfe? Robert Redford’s Wasp-y needlecord in All the President’s Men? Or something uniquely earth-tone like Paddy Considine’s “Guardian” reporter in The Bourne Ultimatum?
The late journalist Betty Jerman, who joined the paper in 1951 and worked simultaneously as secretary and columnist, once said of her “rather shabby” male colleagues: “You had the feeling they weren’t terribly interested in looking smart. They were more interested in what they were writing.”

Across the country, people will be heading to the polls to have their say in the local elections on Thursday.
Leicestershire County Council, which is currently run by the Conservatives, is one of 143 local authorities in England where seats are up for grabs.
We went to the former mining town of Coalville in Leicestershire to ask what matters to voters there, and what services they want to see supported as councils face unprecedented financial pressures. Where are social services?
Publicans are famous for offering their customers an ear and some casual advice, but Gemma King, landlady of The Snibstone, feels she is having to step in for social services.
“This week is an opportunity for us to highlight our commitment to supporting victims and taking action against offenders.
“Stalking isn’t a one-off crime and often includes a series of incidents which, when taken in isolation may seem trivial, but when put together can be really scary.”
Another emphasis of the campaign, led by the Suzy Lamplugh Trust charity, will be on changes since the outbreak of the Covid-19 pandemic and a notable rise in cyber offending.
DS Massey continued: “Sadly, throughout the Covid pandemic, stalking has continued and many offenders have moved their harassment online, which triggers different but equally serious fears among victims.
“We’re here for victims 24/7 and I’d like to reassure them their voice will be heard and we will support you.”
This week, as part of National Stalking Awareness Week, the force will be highlighting the support available to victims and how to spot the signs of stalking behaviour.
A particular focus will be around the different methods offenders use to frighten victims and the mnemonic FOUR signs of stalking – fixated, obsessive, unwanted and repeated.
