Denman Island Peace Group.... Activism has been part of the social fabric of Denman for many years and the Denman [peace group] was central to that activism in the 1980's and 90's and continued to be a voice for peace into the 2000's and beyond.

[Conceived] in the mid 1980s [when] Angela Sidney, one of the last speakers of the Tagish language, had to travel all the way to Toronto in order to tell her stories to a large audience. This prompted two Yukoners to organize the first storytelling festival in the Yukon in 1988. For the first festival, storytellers came from six countries on four continents and joined Yukon native elders to tell and sing stories in 23 different languages, 16 Native languages, Dutch, French, Danish, English, Norwegian, Icelandic, and Ukrainian. All storytellers were encouraged to tell in their first language, with a summary or full translation in English. Within two years, it had become an annual international festival, focusing on, but not restricted to, countries from the circumpolar world.

... the UAB [University of Alabama at Birmingham] team probed deeper into the welding process and made a fundamental metallurgical discovery-constitutional liquid film migration-a phenomenon that Dr. Thompson says would not have been found without the Gleeble. In the 1980's, researchers working in solid state electronic devices discovered diffusion-induced grain boundary migration, in which diffusion of elements from the top layer of a device would cause the grain boundaries to move in unpredictable directions. Five years later, other investigators found that running a liquid along the grain boundary could also cause it to move. Then, in the course of their NASA-related research, Dr. Thompson and his colleagues discovered that liquid film migration of grain boundaries occurred naturally during welding as the result of precipitates liquating in the heat affected zone. The UAB team further found that the migration distance was an order of magnitude greater than previously observed and that new grains were actually formed during the process. Spurred on by this discovery, the UAB researchers looked at real-world welding processes and found that constitutional liquid film migration could be found there too.

Over the next 30 years the Mafia became a power not only in Sicily but all over Italy as well. The Italian government began an anti-Mafia campaign in the early 1980s, leading not only to a number of arrests and sensational trials, but also to the assassination of several key law-enforcement officials in retaliation.

Subject field(s)
  • Petroleum Technology - Equipment
  • Photoelectricity and Electron Optics
DEF

Technology that combines sensors and remote control to detect production problems and solve them without costly well intervention.

CONT

... with advancements in material science, electronics, and data acquisition and processing, we have seen the use of sensors in oil well production turn in to what is now being referred to as "smart-well technology." With sensors located downhole (below ground), above ground, in the storage tanks, and even on the pump motors to detect low frequency vibrations that can indicate potential wear, "smart" is exactly what these wells are becoming. ... There are a variety of sensors currently used for downhole monitoring ranging from fiber optic to acoustic to quartz crystal sensors.

CONT

Representing a step-change in intelligent well control technology, the new multi-drop capability for hydraulic, downhole flow control valves supports the industry’s overall objectives. These include improving reservoir recovery, and removing complexity and operating capital for future interventions. They also include ... effective monitoring and control for production management.

OBS

Much has been ... written about intelligent well technology (IWT), but not everyone agrees as to what constitutes an intelligent well (IW). Some feel that merely the use of permanent downhole gauges (PDGs) that monitor and collect wellbore and/or reservoir data, constitutes an IW. Then there are others who believe that use of simple hydraulic-controlled, remote-operated, downhole-flow-control devices with only on/off position control but no downhole monitoring, should be considered an IW. A definition accepted .... among others, is that an IW installation is one that includes all of the following capabilities: Monitoring: The ability to monitor wellbore and/or reservoir characteristics in real time; Optimization: Analyze the data from monitoring, and pro-actively adjust flow regimes from multiple zones or laterals; Flow control: Utilization of remotely operated downhole-flow-control devices ... for adjustment of flow regimes.

OBS

The development of intelligent well technology began in the late 1980s. New downhole technology to better monitor and control production without intervention was seen as a solution to maximize the potential of aging reservoirs. Applications for permanent seismic sensing as a reservoir optimization tool grew out of conventional borehole seismic techniques that have been used for many years.

Housing stock is in short supply across Montana : available rental housing stands at less than 1 percent in Bozeman and in Billings, and in Missoula the overall vacancy rate is less than 2 percent. The current real estate boom is a complete turnaround for some communities that experienced a glut of housing in the 1980s. There was a housing surplus in Missoula as recent as 1989, according to Nancy Leifer, coordinator of the Missoula Housing Task Force. In Billings, "the 80s were pretty devastating" says Lucy Brown, executive director of the Housing Authority of Billings. "The market has miraculously reversed itself in four years, "Brown says.

Alors que, dans la plupart des pays d'Europe de l'Ouest, le marché se caractérise par un excédent de logements et un haut degré de confort, tel n'est pas le cas dans les pays d'Europe centrale et orientale (cela est particulièrement vrai, en termes d'équipements, dans les pays balkaniques). Si, dans l'Union européenne, la pénurie de logements ne touche qu'une «minorité de candidats malchanceux» [...], ce problème est beaucoup plus répandu en Europe centrale et orientale.

CONT

[...] le contrôle des loyers n'incite pas non plus les propriétaires à baisser leur prix en période de surplus de logements car il leur est très difficile de les augmenter par la suite si le marché se resserre.

Science Council of BC.

OBS

When the SPARK initiative was first developed in late 1980's, it promoted science and technology in BC among a wide variety of economic sectors. Key players from leading BC sectors such as forest products, biotechnology, ocean industries and information technology, came together to focus on the strengths of their sectors and identity opportunities to make them viable and productive growth industries for BC. SPARK served as an effective conduit for industry discussion and networking for more than ten years and may of the valuable partnerships and connections that SPARK fostered have been pursued by industry specific groups and continue to have an impact today.

The late 1980s were the height of Japan's "bubble economy, "when soaring land prices and cheap credit sent the Nikkei into the stratosphere, turning thousands of people into paper millionaires. The Nikkei topped out at 38, 915. 87 on Dec. 29, 1989. Since then tighter money policy and a mild recession have punctured the bubble. The value of stocks dropped by equivalent of over $2. 8 trillion Cdn, more than half, in a generally gradual decline that has lasted 2 1/2 years.
