Miscellaneous Aspects of Geomembranes. Seams.... The topic can... be viewed from the aspect of factory versus field seams. The individual geomembrane sheets are usually made into larger sheets by factory seaming them together. These seams are generally quite good, having been made in a controlled and clean environment with good quality control. The resulting panels are then brought to the project site and now field seamed to their final configuration. It is the field seams that are particularly vulnerable to problems. When quality control is poor leaks invariably arise. This important section addresses the type and manner of both factory and field seaming of geomembranes 1, record 7, English, - factory%20seaming

To complete a distress a seizure of the chattels is necessary. A seizure may be either actual or constructive. It is actual by laying hands on the article, or on one of several articles, and claiming to detain it or them until the rent is satisfied. The most proper manner of making a distress is for the person distraining to go upon any part of the premises out of which the rent issues and take hold of some personal chattel declaring that it is taken as a distress in the name of all goods, or of so much as will satisfy the rent in arrear, and this will be a good seizure of all.

Hot water for domestic purposes can be provided at low cost by the thermosyphon solar heater. The heat collector is a flat plate of blackened metal(steel, aluminum, or copper), to which tubes are attached in any manner which provides good thermal contact. The tubes are connected to headers at the top and bottom of the collector plate, which is insulated to minimize loss of heat from the rear surface. The collector is glazed with a glass or plastic cover to trap the Sun's heat and to reduce heat loss to the atmosphere. 1, record 13, English, - thermosyphon%20solar%20heater

The word "endogenous" was originally a botanical term... Endogenous means originating on or growing within the side of something, as cells within the wall of the parent cell... That's a good metaphor for economic or technological growth--exogenous growth is growing like rings on a tree--definitely not how an economy grows, or innovations develop. It's a view of society as a giant organism within which innovations develop randomly and irregularly, not in any planned manner. Endogenous growth theory simply means economic growth from within a system, usually a nation-state. 2, record 14, English, - endogenous%20growth%20theory

"Psychophagi"(Castler's term) are hardly ever encountered among them. Feeling the beginnings of osmosis, which may come about as the result of purely accidental approaches and fluctuations-feeling this threat in a manner that is of course nonphysical, much as someone might sense another's presence or even hear "strange voices" in his own mind-the personoids execute active avoidance maneuvers; they withdraw and go their separate ways. It is on account of this phenomenon that they have come to know the meaning of the concepts of "good" and "evil. "To them it is evident that "evil" lies in the destruction of another, and "good" in another's deliverance. At the same time, the "evil" of one may be the "good"(i. e., the gain, now in the nonethical sense) of another, who would become a "psychophage. " 1, record 25, English, - psychophage

Il est évident pour les personnoides que le «mal» consiste à détruire l'autre et le «bien» à le sauver. Et simultanément, le «mal» de l'un peut être le «bien» (c'est-à-dire un profit, qui ne relève plus de l'éthique) de celui qui serait devenu «âmophage». Cette expansion, cette appropriation du «territoire spirituel» d'autrui, élargit en effet la «surface mentale» donnée au départ. C'est en quelque sorte l'équivalent de la pratique qui est la nôtre concernant les animaux. En effet, bien qu'étant nous-mêmes des animaux, nous devons en tuer pour nous nourrir. Les personnoides, quant à eux, ne sont pas obligés d'agir ainsi, ils sont seulement susceptibles de le faire.

Les capteurs solaires de part et d'autre de l'atrium sont simplement des revêtements de type mur-rideau avec vide à l'arrière pour permettre à l'air froid de s'infiltrer à la base et de s'échauffer en montant au contact des tôles noires qui auront absorbé l'énergie solaire (...) 1, record 28, French, - t%C3%B4le%20noire

Minimax principle. The notion that when a choice must be made among several possible actions, the decision maker should look only at the worst possible consequence of each action and choose the action for which the worst consequence is least injurious. In this manner, he minimizes the maximum harm which can be done to him through his actions. In many cases, this principle would lead to actions which a businessman would reject because they would make him violate good business judgment. 1, record 29, English, - minimax%20principle

[Dans la gestion de l'entreprise] une décision doit être admissible, c'est-à-dire qu'il ne doit pas exister de décision qui conduise à un meilleur résultat quel que soit l'état de la nature. Il existe malheureusement de nombreux critères qui sélectionnent toujours des décisions admissibles (...) On choisit donc de son côté la décision qui rend maximum le profit minimum- ou ce qui revient au même- minimum la perte maximum. C'est le critère du minimax, auquel on a parfois attaché le nom de Wald. Il correspond à l'attitude la plus prudente et est très discutable car il n'y a en fait aucune raison pour que la nature nous veuille du mal, et que l'on doive, en conséquence, se protéger contre le pire. 1, record 29, French, - crit%C3%A8re%20du%20minimax
