Download or read book Field Manual FM 3 34 468 Seabee Quarry Blasting Operations and Safety Manual December 2003 written by United States Government US Army and published by Createspace Independent Pub. This book was released on 2012-08-07 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: PURPOSE This manual is a guide for engineer personnel responsible for planning, designing, and conducting blasting operations in pits and quarries. This manual should be used in conjunction with current Army blasting doctrine. Although this manual focuses on techniques and procedures used in Navy blasting, it mirrors standards that have been adopted by and used in the civilian blasting sector. SCOPE AND APPLICABILITY Engineer personnel assigned to blasting and quarry teams must have a basic understanding of blasting operations in pits and quarries to successfully operate a quarry while effectively producing crushed rock. Quarrying specialists enhance their skills primarily from experience in problem solving, overcoming obstacles in the field, and learning from failures. Using this manual, information and guidance established in current Army doctrine, and blasting guidance set forth in Field Manual (FM) 5-250, the quarrying specialist or foreman will perform more efficiently, effectively, and safely in the field. This manual mentions explosive agents that are not currently available through standard Army procurement. It is fundamentally important for a quarrying foreman to consider all resources available in the Department of Defense (DOD) and the civilian sector. It may be necessary to use nonstandard agents in a contingency environment when nothing else is available. However, until other blasting agents are approved for Army use in quarry operations, each user must request and obtain a waiver, through proper military channels, to use anything other than military-grade dynamite.

Download or read book Early Livermore written by and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2006 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Englishman Robert Livermore jumped ship in Southern California in 1822, yet just 15 years later became the respected owner of the 40,000-acre Las Positas land grant. Here he built his new Californio wife an adobe house in 1839. The wealth that flowed into California during the gold rush allowed Livermore to import a two-story house around the Horn, but entrepreneurs and squatters flowed in as well. Nathaniel Patterson opened the first hotel in the old Livermore adobe, frequented by miners on their way from the South Bay to the Sierra gold mines. Laddsville, a village built where the roads to Stockton and Dublin met, was also a going concern until the Central Pacific pushed over the Altamont Pass. On this line grew the town founded by William Mendenhall in 1869, named for pioneer Livermore, who had died more than a decade earlier. Soon Livermore became the valley's commercial center for hay, wheat, barley, wine grapes, and ranching.

Download or read book The Rand UCLA Appropriateness Method User s Manual written by Kathryn Fitch and published by Rand Corporation. This book was released on 2001 with total page 109 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Health systems should function in such a way that the amount of inappropriate care is minimized, while at the same time stinting as little as possible on appropriate and necessary care. The ability to determine and identify which care is overused and which is underused is essential to this functioning. To this end, the "RAND/UCLA Appropriateness Method" was developed in the 1980s. It has been further developed and refined in North America and, increasingly, in Europe. The rationale behind the method is that randomized clinical trials--the "gold standard" for evidence-based medicine--are generally either not available or cannot provide evidence at a level of detail sufficient to apply to the wide range of patients seen in everyday clinical practice. Although robust scientific evidence about the benefits of many procedures is lacking, physicians must nonetheless make decisions every day about when to use them. Consequently, a method was developed that combined the best available scientific evidence with the collective judgment of experts to yield a statement regarding the appropriateness of performing a procedure at the level of patient-specific symptoms, medical history, and test results. This manual presents step-by-step guidelines for conceptualising, designing, and carrying out a study of the appropriateness of medical or surgical procedures (for either diagnosis or treatment) using the RAND/UCLA Appropriateness Method. The manual distills the experience of many researchers in North America and Europe and presents current (as of the year 2000) thinking on the subject. Although the manual is self-contained and complete, the authors do not recommend that those unfamiliar with the RAND/UCLA Appropriateness Method independently conduct an appropriateness study; instead, they suggest "seeing one" before "doing one." To this end, contact information is provided to assist potential users of the method.

This book was released on 2017-05-10 with total page 133 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Once in a while a product line comes along that offers men and women the opportunity to truly reclaim the youthful face they thought they had lost forever. Without drugs, electricity or anything harmful or hurtful millions of people worldwide have successfully and reliably used exercise to trim, lift and tone sagging muscles. Just like muscles in the body can be exercised, the facial muscles can greatly benefit from exercise but not just any exercise will do. Contortions, twists, puckers and funny faces will not shape or contour sagging facial muscles in a mature face. The Facial Magic facial exercise system will lift, tone and tighten sagging facial muscles. These proven, easy-to-execute isometric movements require only minutes a day to perform and most users say they look 5, 10 even 15 years younger in just weeks as eyelids tighten, eye brows lift, the forehead smoothes, jowls and pouches melt away as double chins lessen, dramatically revealing a sculpted jaw line. Facial Magic provides the look of a face lift without surgery, seams or risk of infection. Using only the thumbs and fingers while wearing special exercise gloves, your "age erasers" will produce immediate lifting and tightening of the facial features. In about three weeks the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles become less apparent as the muscles plump up the skin helping the user's face look refreshed, radiant and younger. This book contains all 18 Facial Magic exercises. Learn two exercises each week - each exercise requires 35 seconds - so in just minutes a day you will feel and see the youthful results you desire.
