As stated above, recreational dive planners are for "no-decompression" diving. That's unfortunately a rather ambiguous term because, of course, we do decompress as we ascend to the surface again. What it really means is that the data in the tables shows the length of time you can stay at a certain depth and still be able to ascend without making mandatory scheduled "decompression stops.

Ottawa-Carleton Health Department, Program Training and Consultation Centre. This self-help program for pregnant Francophone women focuses on the various stages of readiness to quit smoking and the specific concerns of expectant mothers. The program consists of five booklets that were developed through pilot testing in the francophone community. Each of the five booklets addresses a different stage of readiness to quit from not thinking about quitting all the way to maintaining the decision to stay an ex-smoker. A brief quiz helps the pregnant smoker to determine her stage of readiness and directs her to the appropriate booklet. The length of the program is therefore variable. 1, record 9, English, - Une%20grossesse%20sans%20tabac

Ce programme d'entraide pour les femmes enceintes francophones met l'accent sur les diverses étapes de la prise de décision de renoncer au tabagisme et sur les préoccupations particulières des femmes enceintes. Le programme comporte cinq livrets qui ont été élaborés sur la base d'essais menés au sein de la communauté francophone. Chacun des cinq livrets traite d'une étape différente de la prise de décision, soit à partir du moment où la participante n'envisage pas encore à cesser de fumer jusqu'au maintien de sa décision de demeurer non-fumeuse. Un bref questionnaire aide la fumeuse enceinte à déterminer à quelle étape elle se trouve et la dirige vers le livret qui lui convient.

Each layer of plywood is called a veneer; these are produced in several ways including rotary cutting, half-round cutting with the stay log, slicing, and sawing. Rotary cutting is by far the most important... Logs which are to be made into rotary-cut veneer... are removed from storage and cut into bolts... The bolts are softened... and the bark is removed. Each bolt is centered in a large lathe, and the cutting mechanism-a pressure bar and knife that run the full length of the bolt-is put in place. As the bolt is turned, the knife peels off a thin layer of veneer while the pressure bar compresses the wood ahead of the knife to reduce splitting and cutting checks. 3, record 16, English, - rotary%20cutting

Peeling provides the greatest volume and the most rapid production, because logs are merely rotated against a flat knife and the veneer is peeled off in a long continuous sheet. 4, record 16, English, - rotary%20cutting
