The R in ALARA is reasonably.
Anecdote - After TMI the NRC mandated that all nuclear plants install a system to automatically initiate auxiliary feed water to the steam generators if certain criteria were met. The Combustion Engineering version of…
I don't think it's possible to exercise your way to weight loss. A handful of Oreo's will negate an hour workout. Simply cutting out as much added sugar as possible will drop weight quickly on just about anyone. Cutting…
In Japan they shut down each plant yearly for inspection. Everywhere else it's done on the refueling cycle. The plant I worked at was on a two year cycle so each year one of the two plants shut down for about an 8 week…
I got a speeding in a school zone ticket and fought it because the points for that offence are high. The sign gave times the speed limit was in effect but I missed it and there were no other cars on the road so I didn't…
Unless you live in or near a fairly large urban center, or some large college towns, you won't find movie theaters showing small films.
I'd add Americas Test Kitchen - independent testing of kitchen appliances and basics. Recipe how to's after extensive testing. Good cooking tips.
I'm remembering back 40 years here. I worked in the engine room of a nuclear powered cruiser. We had a switch called something like "battle bypass" that would bypass all the auto scram functions. The military calls a…
There are plenty of motorcycles with belt drive, the suspension doesn't seem to be a problem.
We also lowered the voting age to 18.
South Texas is a 4 loop Westinghouse design and Palo Verde is a 2 loop System 80 Combustion Engineering design. Neither is experimental or unusually dangerous.
The 737 has a better glide ratio than a Cessna 172 when both set up correctly.
Am I missing it because I don't see flaps mentioned anywhere in that link.
Licensed nuclear plant control room operators go through 40 hours of training every 6 week. Generally 5 weeks of operations rotation then 1 week of training, all year, every year. Twenty hours of classroom and 20 hours…
This is the straight scoop on the development of the M16. This is the channel for all things Colt. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SE0xcxwZg2M
It wouldn't stabilize tracer rounds, it was perfectly fine with standard issue rounds. The manual bold close wasn't in Stoners original design, it was requested by the military. In my opinion the internal piston design…
My first wife was an ER nurse then cardiac critical care. The doctors would look for her to talk to the families of patients who had died because they said she was good at it.
You can get breakfast at the Breakers for 50 bucks or the Waffle House down the street for 10 dollars. The Breakers waitstaff will get a 10 dollar tip and the Waffle house staff will get 2 dollars for the exact same…
If he said that in 1970 he only had 3 years wait for item 2. The IBM Selectric II Correcting was introduced in '73.
My youngest of 3 is now 32 years old. I've recently been thinking about the oft heard "I'm always amazed by the things my grown children remember and the things they don't". I've been trying to discover why they…
It doesn't cost the hospital a nickel to have that doctor walk into the patients room. You will get a bill for that from the doctor's practice, not from the hospital.
What they are talking about is what is used to condense the steam exiting the main turbine which is the thing that spins the generator. DC uses seawater to run through the condenser and then back out to the sea, warming…
I think you would see electric cars take off if those without garages or driveways had a way to charge them nightly. I know I would have one on my list. Perhaps use the government buyers incentive to instead give a…
Basic systems will waste 4 gallons of water for every gallon of purified water depending on input pressure and temperature. Lower input temperature and pressure will increase waste and lower output.
Donaghy told his handler (allegedly) that he could swing a game by 6 points, anything more and it would be too obvious.
