Question #1 “Permissible Exposure Limits (PEL) are set by OSHA to protect workers against the adverse effects of exposure to chemical substances” (Haight, 2012, p. 52). In the world of gas detection, PELs limit the amount or concentration of a substance in the air and generally are based on an 8-hour time-weighted average exposure. “A Threshold Limit Value (TLV), set by the American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH), is the limit of exposure to a chemical substance that a worker can be exposed to, day after day, without adverse health effects” (Haight, 2012, p.52). PELs are legal limits, meaning OSHA can enforce their use and any non-compliance in the United States. In contrast, TLVs are recommendations. Although ACGIH is a well-known and respected scientific organization that contributes to the PELs set by OSHA, its TLVs are not legal limits.…
on the EPA National Priorities List (NPL) (HazDat 2007); at room temperature, the mixture is a clear, pale yellow liquid with a sharp, pungent odor. Toluene diisocyanate is insoluble in water and miscible with most common organic solvents. Routes of Exposure Inhalation…
was quoting Justice Hugo Black when he said that “First Amendment protection ‘must be accorded to the ideas we hate or sooner or later they will be denied to the ideas we cherish.’” Nevertheless, the previous statement is true. Millennials should be aware that denying people the right to their own opinions means that their thoughts can be denied as well. If millennials are allowed to limit speech on their campuses and then the speech in the workforce later in life, those whose speech is limited…
the shadows and the purity of forms.” ("Interview With Hiroshi Sugimoto | Huffington Post"). Hiroshi Sugimoto’s specialty in photography is photos called “slow shutter speed.” He refers to this style as “time exposure experiments” ("The Master of Slow Shutter Speed ..."). Sugimoto has many different types of themes in his portfolio, such as: movie theaters, architecture, seascapes, lightings, desert, wax figures, and much more. Although having many themes, Hiroshi Sugimoto’s style of interest…
Today, I decided to play with my own camera of the ESO Canon. I thought that I have learned manual setting on my mentor’s Leica camera. So I wanted to try with my own camera, since it came with manual settings. First, I tried set different ISO, aperture, and shutter-speed numbers. I have to be honest that it wasn’t easy, because I couldn’t tell if is too dark or too bright. I just had to do my best to guess the ISO and shutter speed. With my first try, the first picture was too dark, so I turn…
The main focus of this study is to test whether the 3 elements of the CA relationship (calibration, resolution and over/under confidence) can be weakened by exposure duration, retention interval and divided attention using two studies. The results found that limited exposure duration and delayed retention intervals have a hard-easy effect whereby the accuracy of the CA relationship was affected, but the confidence remained the same. This means that eyewitnesses with limited exposure duration or…
concentration of Triton-X to be 0.05%, so 1 mL of 0.5% was added to the final 10 mL matrix. Dr. Doolittle’s handout suggested that the optimal dithizone concentration was 50 μM in 10 mL, so 0.5 mL of 1μM dithizone was added to the matrix. 1 mL of solution was added to the matrix, along with 3 mL of water. In previous trials, 0.5 mL of buffer was added to solution (and water was added appropriately to get to 10 mL); however, this was later modified (see table below), as it was crucial to main a…
to ship, their values could be decreased and made available to more shoppers in the market. Adversely, the human driver has, on more than just intellectual grounds, is much more viable. The human driver is traditional, and has become a copious profession. It is one of the most common jobs in America. Automating drivers would eliminate millions of jobs and could cause mass unemployment as well as civil outrage. Unless there was a viable way to transition all for those millions of driver out of…
After pondering my thoughts on why he would tap his breaks, I seemed to be gaining on him? Nearly crawling up the rear fender of the sedan, I read my speedometer. “55 MPH! Are you kidding me!” Fist clenching, muscles flexing, teeth grinding, I knew I was about to unleash. “Thats It!” With my vision red, I had no limits. With sudden flashbacks of the two speeding tickets on my record, I snapped into reality. Yet the monster inside was much to strong! Dropping the pedal to the floor, I merged…
such as “money is bad.” This is not true for most, however, there are a few people who, when they receive money or even the thought of receiving money, can do bad things to them. Therefore, there may be some truth to these scripts, however, it is better to try to break away from them and move towards more positive scripts. Chapter three discusses the financial comfort zone and either raising or lowering one’s financial limits. As of now, it is not really necessary for me to break out of my…
