    Chapter 16 MAINTENANCE RESOURCE MANAGEMENT INTRODUCTION Aviation maintenance is a complex and demanding endeavor. Its success, which is ultimately measured by the safety of the flying public, depends on communication and teamwork. Aviation maintenance operations are most successful when crews function as integrated, communicating teams -- rather than as a collection of individuals engaged in independent actions. Over the past decade, the importance of teamwork in the maintenance setting has been widely recognized.1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 The result has been the emergence of human factors training, Maintenance Resource Management (MRM) programs, and other team-centered activities within the aviation maintenance community. Maintenance Resource Management is a general process for improving communication, effectiveness, and safety in airline maintenance operations. Effectiveness is measured through the reduction of maintenance errors, and improved individual and unit coordination and performance. MRM is also used to change the "safety culture" of an organization by establishing a pervasive, positive attitude toward safety. Such attitudes, if positively reinforced, can lead to changed behaviors and better performance. Safety is typically measured by occupational injuries, ground damage incidents, reliability, and airworthiness. MRM improves safety by increasing the coordination and exchange of information between team members, and between teams of airline maintenance crews. The details of MRM programs vary from organization to organization. However, all MRM programs link and integrate traditional human factors topics, such as equipment design, human physiology, workload, and workplace safety. Likewise, the goal of any MRM program is to improve work performance and safety. They do this by reducing maintenance errors through improved coordination and communication.

  • World Cinema Through G G Obal
    COSTANZO “A wonderful textbook as well as a scholarly tour-de-force. Costanzo brings new meaning to the concept of global genres and offers up examples that convincingly demonstrate cinematic border crossings and cultural connections amongst far- flung places.” David Desser, University of Illinois at Urbana–Champaign, USA “Costanzo revitalizes both world cinema and genre studies with his stimulating, WORLD insightful cross cultural approach to warrior heroes, wedding films, horror and road WORLD CINEMA movies. It’s a well-written, scholarly work that’s as inventive as it is enjoyable.” Diane Carson, Past President, University Film and Video Association (UFVA) “William Costanzo has cut the clearest path yet through the forest of World CINEMA Cinema. Key genres take us confidently place to place, era to era; while maps, timelines, and surveys of national industries position a rich array of films, many analyzed with real mastery.” Dudley Andrew, Professor of Film and Comparative Literature, Yale University, USA THROUGH World Cinema through Global Genres offers a new response to recent trends in internationalism that shape the increasingly global character of movies. Costanzo is able to render the complex forces of global filmmaking accessible to students; instead of tracing the long histories of cinema country by country, this innovative textbook uses engaging, recent films like Hero (China), Monsoon THROUGH THROUGH G LOBAL Wedding (India), and Central Station (Brazil) as entry points, linking them to comparable American and European films. The book’s cluster-based organization allows students to acquire a progressively sharper understanding of core issues about genre, aesthetics, industry, culture, history, film theory, and representation that apply to all films around the world.

  • NO RETREAT NO SURRENDER 3 (1990): Producer: Ng See Yuen
    NO RETREAT NO SURRENDER 3 (1990): Producer: Ng See Yuen Director: Lucas Lowe Co-Producer/Writer: Keith W. Strandberg Cast: Keith Vitali, Loren Avedon Locations: Tampa Bay Area, Florida Original Title: Blood Brothers Review courtesy of www.kungfucinema.com “Producer Ng See-Yuen reunites with screenwriter Keith W. Strandberg and tae kwon do expert Loren Avedon in this tale that takes a page from Ng's first film with Seasonal Film Corporation, THE SECRET RIVALS.” To complete his U.S.-Hong Kong crossover trilogy, launching Jean-Claude Van Damme in 1985 and Loren Avedon in 1987, producer Ng See-Yuen reunites with screenwriter Keith W. Strandberg and tae kwon do expert Loren Avedon in this tale that takes a page from Ng's first film with Seasonal Film Corporation, THE SECRET RIVALS. Only instead of North and South styles as the "rivals", we have two brothers whose political views gets the best of them until the death of their father brings them together. C.I.A. agent Casey Alexander (Keith Vitali) has a reputation as being one of the most respected agents in the company. Martial arts instructor Will Alexander (Loren Avedon), Casey's brother, doesn't believe in the entire federal agent shtick and as a result, the two brothers have a serious falling out that starts out at a hunting trip and culminates at the 65th birthday party of their retired agent father John (Joseph Campanella). When John becomes the target of Colombian terrorist Antonio "Franco" Franconi (Rion Hunter), the result of a job in which Franco's son was killed, John is brutally beaten and then ultimately killed by Franco.

  • The Magnificent Seven Sculptors
    THE MAGNIFICENT SEVEN SCULPTORS STAND CO2 ART CENTRAL HONG KONG 27 MARCH - 1 APRIL 2018 CENTRAL HARBOR FRONT 01 Born in Victoria in 1976, Daniel Agdag is an Australian artist and flmmaker. The son of Armenian immigrants, Agdag studied fne art before turning his hand to flmmaking and receiving his Masters in Film and Television at the Victorian College of the Arts in 2007. He will tell you that he makes things out of cardboard. He’s modest. This declaration in no way illuminates the delicate form and eccentric narrative of his work. To say he pushes the medium to its limits is an understatement. His process is very much akin to freehand drawing. He spends a great deal of time thinking and absorbing objects in the built environment, their peculiar details and functions, which leads him to form narratives. Once this is frmly resolved in his mind, various components of the work begin to slowly emerge, ftting together to compliment the overall idea. This narrative is the blueprint from which he works, it informs every component; it’s place, how each relates to the other, and most importantly, the proportions. The painstaking proportions, the key factor that drives his DANIEL AGDAG aesthetic.
