  • Human Factors and Ergonomics Society: Stories from the First 50 Years
    THE HUMAN FACTORS AND ERGONOMICS SOCIETY: STORIES FROM THE FIRST 50 YEARS Edited By Jack Stuster P.O. Box 1369 Santa Monica, CA 90406-1369 USA Copyright © 2006 by the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society, Inc. All rights reserved. PREFACE One of the great moves of my 47-year career in human factors was asking my colleague, Jack Stuster, to collect and document stories from the first 50 years of the Society. His many pleasurable interactions with those who contributed to this effort and the wonderful stories that resulted turned out to be, according to Jack, truly a labor of love. Moreover, I think that whatever time you spend with these stories will be enjoyable for the insights and humor they contain, and for the understanding and appreciation they provide of our profession. The stories are still coming in even as I write this. Jack had several new stories waiting for him as he returned to work at the start of the week; Stu Parsons just called to make sure that an additional story he rounded up will make it in before the publica- tion deadline. Although it took some initial effort to get members thinking about their professional and Society experiences, and still more effort to convince them that their stories would be of sufficient interest to document in a Society publication, once the dam broke, the stories flooded in. So, this document has one editor and many authors. Some have written about the formation and early years of the profession and the Society. Fortunately, these reports come from members who were there and can provide first-hand accounts of these significant events.

  • Navy Nuclear-Powered Surface Ships: Background, Issues, and Options for Congress
    Navy Nuclear-Powered Surface Ships: Background, Issues, and Options for Congress Ronald O'Rourke Specialist in Naval Affairs September 29, 2010 Congressional Research Service 7-5700 www.crs.gov RL33946 CRS Report for Congress Prepared for Members and Committees of Congress Navy Nuclear-Powered Surface Ships: Background, Issues, and Options for Congress Summary All of the Navy’s aircraft carriers, but none of its other surface ships, are nuclear-powered. Some Members of Congress, particularly on the House Armed Services Committee, have expressed interest in expanding the use of nuclear power to a wider array of Navy surface ships, starting with the CG(X), a planned new cruiser that the Navy had wanted to start procuring around FY2017. Section 1012 of the FY2008 Defense Authorization Act (H.R. 4986/P.L. 110-181 of January 28, 2008) makes it U.S. policy to construct the major combatant ships of the Navy, including ships like the CG(X), with integrated nuclear power systems, unless the Secretary of Defense submits a notification to Congress that the inclusion of an integrated nuclear power system in a given class of ship is not in the national interest. The Navy studied nuclear power as a design option for the CG(X), but did not announce whether it would prefer to build the CG(X) as a nuclear-powered ship. The Navy’s FY2011 budget proposes canceling the CG(X) program and instead building an improved version of the conventionally powered Arleigh Burke (DDG-51) class Aegis destroyer. The cancellation of the CG(X) program would appear to leave no near-term shipbuilding program opportunities for expanding the application of nuclear power to Navy surface ships other than aircraft carriers.

  • Divesting from Apartheid: a Summary of State and Municipal Legislative Action on South Africa by Sandy Boyer
    ACOA. American Committee on Africa Divesting from Apartheid: A Summary of State and Municipal Legislative Action on South Africa by Sandy Boyer 1982 was a year of major victories for the movement to withdraw public funds from companies whose investment in South Africa subsidizes the apartheid system. Massachusetts, Michigan, Connecticut and the cities of Philadelphia, Wilmington and Grand Rapids all enacted legislation that will force the divestment of up to $300 million. The Massachusetts bill, which requires state pension funds to sell all stocks and bonds in companies doing business in South Africa, is the most comprehensive divestment legislation yet passed by any state. Philadelphia is the first major American city to pass a divestment ordinance. Both the Massachusetts and the Philadelphia bills call for full divestment of pension funds, and both are being used as model legislation in campaigns around the country. Already in 1983, legislative action against apartheid is being worked on in 21 states and 8 cities and counties. The following summary provides detailed information on this legislation. We hope it will be useful not only to legislators, but to many concerned people from the churches, the unions, and civil rights, community and campus organizations who have been working to end public investment in South African racism. We hope this summary will help you in your efforts to win many more victories in 1983. On May 1, 1980, the Citizens Committee on Responsible ALABAMA Investment which had been created to carry out the refer STATE ACTION: State Representative James Buskey will endum mandate, submitted its 45 page report.
