    Fourth Class: English: Let’s Go Story: Ship Shape B: What have you learned? 1. Dugout canoes are still used today in the Indian and Pacific Oceans as they are a simple yet functional design and cost effective to make. 2. The trireme had a sharp front bow that was used to ram enemy ships. 3. The sleek and graceful design of the Viking longship allowed the Vikings to travel great distances. They were the fastest boats of their time. 4. I think Lord Nelson’s ship has been preserved in dry dock as a memorial to him as he died on board this ship during the Battle of Trafalgar in 1805. 5. Air travel is much faster than sea travel and aircrafts can travel over both sea and land whereas water vessels can just travel over water. 6. The main ferry ports in Ireland are Rosslare Europort, Dublin Port, Port of Belfast, Port of Larne, Dun Laoghaire Harbour, and Port of Cork. 7. Container ships carry and deliver a vast array of goods and products to many countries around the world. 8. Aircraft carriers are so expensive to build because of their enormity – they require a huge amount of expensive materials and manpower to construct. 9. Not all modern ships use oil for fuel because oil is expensive and not environmentally friendly, so new ways of powering ships have been devised. 10. Luxury liners are so-called due to their luxurious amenities and facilities, often including restaurants, gymnasia, games rooms, libraries, and large ballrooms. C: True or False 1.

    Abstract Guide for Prospective Agricultural Cooperative Exporters Alan D. Borst Agricultural Cooperative Service U.S. Department of Agriculture This report describes the different aspects of exporting that a U.S. agricul- tural cooperative must consider to develop a successful export program. t First, the steps involved in making the decision to export are covered. Then, information on various sources of assistance is given, along with , information on how to contact them. Next, features of export marketing strategy-the export plan, sales outlets, market research, product prepara- tion, promotion, and government export incentives-are discussed. Components of making the sale-the terms of sale, pricing, export finance, and regulatory concerns-are also included. Finally, postsale activities-documentation, packing, transportation, risk management, and buyer relations-are described. Keywords: cooperatives, agricultural exports. ACS Research Report 93 September 1990 Preface This report is solely a guide-not a complete manual or blueprint of oper- ations-for any individual cooperative wishing to export. Its objectives are to (1) help co-op management, personnel, and members with little or no experience in exporting to gain a better understanding of the export process, and (2) provide a basic reference tool for both experienced and novice exporters. As a guide, this report is not intended for use in resolving misunderstand- ings or disputes that might arise between parties involved in a particular export transaction. Nor does the mention of a private firm or product con- stitute endorsement by USDA. The author acknowledges the contribution of Donald E. Hirsch.’ ‘Donald E.

    HOW THE INDUSTRY 4.0 COULD AFFECT THE SHIPBUILDING WORLD Rodrigo Pérez Fernández, [email protected], correspondence author SENER, Madrid/Spain. C/ Severo Ochoa, 4 - 28760 Tres Cantos - Madrid (Spain) Abstract The marine structures are developed with Computer Aided Design (CAD) platforms, but every day we are looking for integrated development of the product involving all its Life Cycle. CAD system integrated with Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) and from the PLM we can conceive all the design but also control the production and include the use of the vessel. The PLM can contain information of all systems of the vessel and also all its components. If the components are designed for the Internet of Ships (IoS) it will have technology that allows to share their situation, diagnosis, functionality with the PLM system which distributes the initial design. The PLM system can use this information for knowing whether they are working properly or if we can improve its performance. It is also possible to identify whether it is necessary to make maintenance of the object or if it is necessary to replace it because its life ends or because it's working wrongly. It will be possible to determine and evaluate its performance comparing to other similar components or comparing to it different operating periods. It will also be possible to know how their performance affects the functioning of the whole product, i.e., the vessel. Furthermore, if the connection of the objects is realized with its PLM, it would be possible to record their history status, make change tracking, and know what is its function or its performance after realizing programmed maintenance.

Thompson Principal Investigator Maryland Department of Planning Maryland Historical Trust, Office of Archeology Maryland State Historic Preservation Office 100 Community Place Crownsville, Maryland 21032-2023 November, 2005 This project was accomplished through a partnership between the following organizations: Maryland Historical Trust Maryland Department of Natural Resources Martinak State Park Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum Maritime Archaeological and Historical Society *The cover photo shows the entrance to Watts Creek where the Martinak Boat was discovered just to the right of the ramp http://www.riverheritage.org/riverguide/Sites/html/watts_creek.html (accessed December 10, 2004). Executive Summary The 1960s discovery and recovery of wooden shipwreck remains from Watt’s Creek, Caroline County induced three decades of discussion, study and documentation to determine the wrecks true place within the region’s history. Early interpretations of the wreck timbers claimed the vessel was an example of a Pungy (generally accepted to have been built ca. 1840 – 1920, perhaps as early as 1820), with "…full flaring bow, long lean run, sharp floors, flush deck…and a raking stem post and stern post" (Burgess, 1975:58). However, the closer inspection described in this report found that the floors are flatter and the stem post and stern post display a much longer run (not so raking as first thought). Additional factors, such as fastener types, construction details and tool marks offer evidence for a vessel built earlier than 1820, possibly a link between the late 18th-century shipbuilding tradition and the 19th-century Pungy form.

  • Itening Guide
    itening Guide There are three essential tasks involved in the making of any woodwork project. The first is to cut out and shape the components; the second is the joining of those components; and the third and final task is the finishing of the article. This appendix provides you with information about the best ways to fasten your workpieces together, to ensure your project's long life. The options are between adhesives, nails, screws and bolts. NAILS Nailing is a quick, efficient and economical way of joining timber. lf the correct nails are chosen, there is no reason why the joints should not be durable. Timber framed houses, with most of the framing just nailed together, have stood the test of time. The listing of nail types that follows provides an overview of commonly used nails. This listing is not complete - nails exist for specific purposes such as boat-building, but these are outside the requirements of the normal handyman. _ Nail Types: Gommon Bullet Head: Used for hardwood framing and general fixing. Flat Head: Used for softwood framing, fixing softwoods or anywhere bullet heads would tend to pull through. Wire Brads: Small bullet head nails, used for attaching decorative mouldings. Clouts: Small nails with a relatively large flat head, used for attaching thin sheet material. Nail Types: Special Purpose Tacks: Used principally for upholstery; commonly blue- black in colour. Panel Pins: Used for fixing plywood panelling to timber framing; "brown" plated. Hardboard Nails: Used to attach hardboard ("masonite"); generally zinc plated.

    1JUDGE JOHN HOLLAND AND THE VICE- ADMIRALTY COURT OF THE CAPE OF GOOD HOPE, 1797-1803: SOME INTRODUCTORY AND BIOGRAPHICAL NOTES (PART 1) JP van Niekerk* ABSTRACT A British Vice-Admiralty Court operated at the Cape of Good Hope from 1797 until 1803. It determined both Prize causes and (a few) Instance causes. This Court, headed by a single judge, should be distinguished from the ad hoc Piracy Court, comprised of seven members of which the Admiralty judge was one, which sat twice during this period, and also from the occasional naval courts martial which were called at the Cape. The Vice-Admiralty Court’s judge, John Holland, and its main officials and practitioners were sent out from Britain. Key words: Vice-Admiralty Court; Cape of Good Hope; First British Occupation of the Cape; jurisdiction; Piracy Court; naval courts martial; Judge John Holland; other officials, practitioners and support staff of the Vice-Admiralty Court * Professor, Department of Mercantile Law, School of Law, University of South Africa.
