Download or read book Mike Busch on Engines written by Mike Busch and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-05-12 with total page 508 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The risk of engine failure is greatest when your engine is young, NOT when it's old. You should worry more about pediatrics than geriatrics." -Mike Busch A&P/IA Mike Busch on Engines expands the iconoclastic philosophy of his groundbreaking first book Manifesto to the design, operation, condition monitoring, maintenance and troubleshooting of piston aircraft engines. Busch begins with the history and theory of four-stroke spark-ignition engines. He describes the construction of both the "top end" (cylinders) and "bottom end" (inside the case), and functioning of key systems (lubrication, ignition, carburetion, fuel injection, turbocharging). He reviews modern engine leaning technique (which your POH probably has all wrong), and provides a detailed blueprint for maximizing the life of your engine. The second half presents a 21st-century approach to health assessment, maintenance, overhaul and troubleshooting. Busch explains how modern condition monitoring tools-like borescopy, oil analysis and digital engine monitor data analysis-allow you to extend engine life and overhaul strictly on-condition rather at an arbitrary TBO. The section devoted to troubleshooting problems like rough running, high oil consumption, temperamental ignition and turbocharging issues is worth its weight in gold. If you want your engine to live long and prosper, you need this book.

Book excerpt: The definitive career guide for grad students, adjuncts, post-docs and anyone else eager to get tenure or turn their Ph.D. into their ideal job Each year tens of thousands of students will, after years of hard work and enormous amounts of money, earn their Ph.D. And each year only a small percentage of them will land a job that justifies and rewards their investment. For every comfortably tenured professor or well-paid former academic, there are countless underpaid and overworked adjuncts, and many more who simply give up in frustration. Those who do make it share an important asset that separates them from the pack: they have a plan. They understand exactly what they need to do to set themselves up for success. They know what really moves the needle in academic job searches, how to avoid the all-too-common mistakes that sink so many of their peers, and how to decide when to point their Ph.D. toward other, non-academic options. Karen Kelsky has made it her mission to help readers join the select few who get the most out of their Ph.D. As a former tenured professor and department head who oversaw numerous academic job searches, she knows from experience exactly what gets an academic applicant a job. And as the creator of the popular and widely respected advice site The Professor is In, she has helped countless Ph.D.’s turn themselves into stronger applicants and land their dream careers. Now, for the first time ever, Karen has poured all her best advice into a single handy guide that addresses the most important issues facing any Ph.D., including: -When, where, and what to publish -Writing a foolproof grant application -Cultivating references and crafting the perfect CV -Acing the job talk and campus interview -Avoiding the adjunct trap -Making the leap to nonacademic work, when the time is right The Professor Is In addresses all of these issues, and many more.

Download or read book Interviewing in Depth written by John T. Chirban and published by SAGE Publications. This book was released on 1996-06-03 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a book about deeper listening . . . that will help professionals become more sensitive and enable closer communication. . . . This book is a must for professionals. Dr. Chirban shows us both how and why we interview. Interviewing In Depth will hold an important place on my shelf. I hope you find it as warm and fascinating as I have. --Allen E. Ivey, Ed.D., A.B.P.P., Distinguished University Professor, University of Massachusetts "This sensitive, reflective, and revealing book supplies a most valuable anatomy of the "deep structure" of the personal interview, as well as remarkable insights into people who have left indelible marks on our times. Clinicians and lay readers will be both instructed and fascinated by this work." --Thomas G. Gutheil, M.D., Professor of Psychiatry, Harvard Medical School Use this quote first "I hope this useful and challenging book reaches well beyond clinicians and other health professionals to anyone whose work depends upon face-to-face encounters. Its simple, yet radical message is that a successful interview is more likely to happen when collaboration, personal attributes, values, and feelings are brought and made available by both participants. Recognizing that this is precisely what professional interviewers have avoided, Dr. Chirban skillfully shows how mutual visibility can be achieved but managed: The interactive-relational approach works. Readers will love seeing it in action, especially with B.F. Skinner and Lucille Ball." --Anthony G. Barrand, Ph.D, Department of Anthropology, Boston University In Interviewing in Depth, John T. Chirban presents an innovative and powerful interviewing approach--the interactive-relational--that promises and delivers a clearer, deeper portrait of the person. By focusing on how the interviewer participates more fully in the interview, through particular interaction in the relationship he or she establishes, Chirban shows how the interviewer manages his or her personal feelings while still maintaining a professional stance. Through excerpts of interviews in journalism, oral histories, and psychohistory, Chirban draws from his work with B. F. Skinner, Lucille Ball, Sandra Day O′Connor, and patients to illustrate how the interactive-relational approach differs from more traditional techniques and applies to interviewing in the health professions, communications, and business as well as psychology.

It starts out with small things, but then it gets worse. To top it all off, someone outside the family has witnessed his destruction. Now, in addition to trying to figure out how to control - or scumble - his savvy, he's got to worry about how to protect the family secrets.
