Bridge Watchkeeping Федеральное агентство морского и речного флота Федеральное государственное образовательное учреждение высшего профессионального образования Морской государственный университет им, адм. Г. И. Невельского О. Я. Казинская, Л. М. Ямченко BRIDGE WATCHKEEPING Учебное пособие Рекомендовано Дальневосточным региональным учебно-методическим центром (ДВ РУМЦ) в качестве учебного пособия для курсантов старших курсов специальности 180402.65 "Судовождение" Владивосток 2007 Introduction In many shipping companies, shipboard safety has improved greatly over the past few years. Safety awareness programmes, the regular use of safety equipment and training have made ships safer places to live in and work at. However, too many incidents, acci­ dents and injuries still occur. Many accidents are results of lapses in concentration or have seemingly minor causes. The consequencies of such lapses can lead to accidents which vary in their severity. Under the "International Safety Management Code for the Safe Operation of Ships and Pollution Prevention", more commonly known as the International Safety Management (ISM) Code, all shipping companies are required to develop a safety and environ­ mental policy. The Code, which is an International Maritime Organisation (IMO) resolution, is incorporated as Chapter IX of the Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS) Convention and is mandatory. One of the objectives of the ISM code is to "provide for safe practices in ship operation and a safe working environment". Safety is of paramount importance and should be borne in mind before any task is attempted. In order to get this message across, it is necessary to develop a safety culture where all staff appreciate the importance of safety. In fact, it must be their first consideration and become part of their way of life. The officers on the ship, in particular, must be totally committed to the safety culture and must be seen to actively promote and sup­ port its development. Everyone onboard should actively promote safety. 5 Part I. Watchkeeping The following instructions are based to a large extent upon the International Convention on Standards of Training, certification and Watchkeeping for Seafarers, 1978, as amended in 1995 (STCW Con­ vention) and are supposed to be used together with the specific in­ structions as included in the ship's Safety Management System (SMS). Unit I. Master The master has the ultimate responsibility for the safe and effi­ cient operation of the ship. He shall ensure that each officer of the watch (OOW) is sufficiently familiar with the ship's navigational and safety equipment as well as the manoeuvring capabilities and limitations to assume sole operational responsibility for a watch at sea. The master shall expressly inform the OOW when he assumes control of the vessel's navigation as well as when he returns the re­ sponsibility for the navigation of the vessel to the OOW. He shall organise the watchkeeping, enstiring that the bridge team members (himself included) are allowed sufficient rest periods in accordance with the STCW convention and/or national rules and regulations. The master shall issue written standing orders and special in­ structions as necessary. He shall consider the layout of the bridge when deciding on the necessary manning level for the bridge during different circumstances. He shall ensure that all members of the bridge teams are properly trained in manually steering the vessel. I. Read the text paying attention to the pronunciation of the fol­ lowing words: ultimate [4ltimit], efficient [I'ftj^nt], manoeuvring [ma'mKV^rirj], allow [o'lau], sufficient [sa'fij^nt], issue ['iju: ], circumstance [•saikamstaens]. 6 II. Check that you understand the text answering the following questions. 1. Who has the ultimate responsibility for the safe and efficient operation of the ship? 2. What equipment should each OOW be familiar with? 3. How shall the master inform the OOW when he assumes control of the vessel's operation? 4. In accordance with what papers are the bridge team members al­ lowed sufficient rest periods? 5. In what form must all standing orders and special instructions be issued? 6. What shall the master take into consideration when deciding on the necessary manning level for the bridge? 7. Why are all members of the bridge teams to be properly trained in manually steering the vessel? III. Look through the text and find English equivalents of the fol­ lowing word combinations: абсолютная ответственность; эффективная работа; достаточно хорошо знать; так же, как; маневренные возможности; взять/принять на себя единоличную ответственность; четко проинформировать; принять на себя управление; члены вах­ тенной команды на мостике; достаточное для отдыха; издавать письменные распоряжения; учитывать план (расположение) мостика; штатная численность личного состава; ручное управ­ ление. IV. Correct the false statements. Which of these statements are true according to the text? 1. The master has the overriding responsibility for the safe and effi­ cient operation of the ship. 2. He shall ensure that each officer of the watch knows the ship's navigational and safety equipment. 3. The master shall vaguely advise the OOW when he assumes con­ trol of the vessel's navigation. 7 4. The bridge team members are allowed sufficient rest periods in compliance with ISM Code and navigational rules. 5. The master shall issue oral standing orders and other instruc­ tions as necessary. 6. The necessary manning level for the bridge during different cir­ cumstances should be decided in consideration for the layout of the bridge. 7. The master should make sure that all members of the bridge team can steer the vessel manually. V. Fill the blanks with the proper words or word combinations from the text and translate the sentences. 1. The master has the for the safe and efficient operation of the ship. 2. He shall ensure that each officer of the watch is familiar with the ship's navigational and safety equipment to ... sole operational responsibility for a watch at sea. 3. The master should ensure that the are allowed sufficient rest periods according to interna­ tional and national rules and regulations. 4. The master shall issue written as necessary. 5. He shall consider the layout of the bridge when deciding on the necessary for the bridge in differ­ ent circumstances. VI. Be ready to speak on masters responsibility for watchkeeping. Unit II. The Officer of the Watch (OOW) The officer of the watch is the master's representative and his primary responsibility at all times is the safe navigation of the ship. The OOW shall comply at all times with the applicable regulations for preventing collisions at sea. He shall ensure that a good lookout is maintained at all times using all means available, including but not limited to, visual, audible and electronic. He shall always com­ ply with the master's written standing and special orders. The OOW shall ensure that the members of the bridge team are informed and updated on occurrences during the watch that are of significance to 8 the safe navigation of the vessel. He shall comply with vessel's Safety Management System (SMS). The officer of the watch shall once every watch check: — the manual steering at times when the autopilot is in use; — the gyro and magnetic compass errors and the synchronisa­ tion between the compass repeaters and the main gyro; — lights and signals; and — the operation of the GMDSS equipment. Whenever required he shall call for reinforcement of the watch. The OOW shall immediately call the master: — in accordance with the master's standing orders; — when visibility deteriorates below the limit stated in the mas­ ter's standing orders; — when in doubt regarding the intentions of other vessels; — if having the slightest doubt of the vessel's true position; — at the breakdown of the engines, steering gear or any essential navigational equipment; and — for any other reason causing doubt about the safe navigation of the vessel. Watchkeeping is teamwork and must be organised to meet the special requirement of the vessel and her trade.

When shall the OOW comply with the master's standing orders? 9 4. What should the members of the bridge team be informed and updated on during the watch? 5. What does SMS stand for? 6. When shall he check the manual steering? 7. In what cases is he to call for reinforcement of the watch? 8. According to what papers is he to call the master? 9. In what weather conditions should the master be called immedi­ ately? III. Look through the text and find English equivalents of the fol­ lowing words and word combinations: представитель капитана; основная обязанность; действовать со­ гласно соответствующим правилам; вести надлежащее наблю­ дение; все имеющиеся в наличии средства; звуковой; распоря­ жения; быть важным; система управления безопасности; по­ правки гиро- и магнитного компасов; оборудование ГМССБ; усиление вахты; гироскоп; ухудшаться (о видимости); ручное управление; имея малейшие сомнения; поломка двигателя; важное навигационное оборудование; соответствовать требова­ ниям; вызывать обеспокоенность.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106- 1346 Abstract This thesis examines the significance of a ubiquitous presence of fictional letters and diaries in neo-Victorian fiction. It investigates how intercalated documents fashion pastiche narrative structures to organise conflicting viewpoints invoked in diaries, letters, and other addressed accounts as epistolary forms. This study concentrates on the strategic ways that writers put fragmented and found material traces in order to emphasise such traces of the past as fragmentary, incomplete, and contradictory. Interpolated documents evoke ideas of privacy, confession, secrecy, sincerity, and seduction only to be exploited and subverted as writers idiosyncratically manipulate epistolary devices to support metacritical agendas. Underpinning this thesis is the premise that much literary neo-Victorian fiction is bound in an incestuous relationship with Victorian studies.

  • The Identification of Transcriptional Signatures of Steroid Response in Human Neurons and Microrna Networks As a Contributor to Reproductive Steroid Pathology
    THE IDENTIFICATION OF TRANSCRIPTIONAL SIGNATURES OF STEROID RESPONSE IN HUMAN NEURONS AND MICRORNA NETWORKS AS A CONTRIBUTOR TO REPRODUCTIVE STEROID PATHOLOGY A Dissertation submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences of Georgetown University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Global Infectious Diseases By Allison Courtney Goff, M.A. Washington, DC April 16, 2021 Copyright 2020 by Allison Courtney Goff All Rights Reserved ii THE IDENTIFICATION OF TRANSCRIPTIONAL SIGNATURES OF STEROID RESPONSE IN HUMAN NEURONS AND MICRORNA NETWORKS AS CONTRIBUTORS TO REPRODUCTIVE STEROID PATHOLOGY Allison Courtney Goff, M.A. Thesis Advisors: David Goldman, M.D. and Peter J. Schmidt, M.D. ABSTRACT Ovarian steroids change the brain in utero, during puberty, and in adulthood. At the neuronal level, ovarian steroids affect structure, gene networks, and physiological outputs, and at the neurocircuitry level they modulate working memory, reward, and emotion. In reproductive related affective disorders such as premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD), alterations in mood and affect are linked to changes in ovarian steroid levels. However, the pathophysiology of these disorders is just beginning to be characterized. For PMDD, previous work demonstrated intrinsic differences in the ESC/E(Z) complex, a major epigenetic modifier. However, this work showed a discrepancy between transcripts and protein: while transcripts in this complex tend to be upregulated in PMDD, protein quantities were downregulated. The work in this thesis builds directly on this knowledge by investigating the role of microRNAs, a unique class of regulatory molecules that dynamically regulate gene networks and are capable of resolving seemingly paradoxical relationships between transcript and protein levels.

I’m happy to tell you that the Petroushka Ball is 54 years old! The Russian Children`s Welfare Society is in its 93 year and still carrying out its mission. At a time when the world has become a bit cold and self-absorbed there is ever the need for warmth and caring for the disadvantaged children in Russia. Today, there are thousands of orphaned children with no family to care for them, with limited opportunity to receive needed medical treatment and operations. These children cannot even imagine going to college to prepare for a profession or the career they dream of. And yet, this is precisely where this charity shines. Since 1926 the RCWS has cared for and given hope to thousands of children thanks to donations from people like you. It all started with 5 ladies of noble birth who worked to help families with children who had escaped the Bolshevik Revolution and then those who escaped Communism. In the years following, the Society supported orphanages with vocational training equipment, beds, building renovations, even new cars in which to transport children to doctor’s visits and other necessary appointments.

To reveal the origin of solutes, the chemical composition of water was considered as a mixture of solutes from different sources such as rocks and anthropogenic wastes. The end-member mixing approach (EMMA), based on the observation that the element ratios in water uncorrelated with one another are those that exhibit differences in values across the different types of rocks and anthropogenic wastes, was used for source apportionment. According to the results of correlation analysis, two tracers of sources of most abundant ions present in riverine waters were selected. The first tracer was the ratio of combined concentration of calcium and magnesium ions to concentration Citation: Semenov, M.Y.; Semenov, of potassium ion ((Ca2+ + Mg2+)/K+), and the second tracer was the ratio of sulfate and bicarbonate Y.M.; Silaev, A.V.; Begunova, L.A.
