My wife has 6 tattoos and loves every one of them and I am planing a full back tattoo that is a tribute to some freinds that are no longer with us.

I was watching fear factor and was looking at the cameras that they wear on their helmets. I ask people at the camera store what they were and they told me the lense is worn on the helmet and the actual camera is worn on the belt and transmits the video real time to a reciever and people can watch real time action but nobody seemed to know where I could get one. Anybody know about these or where to find them to buy? Experience is a difficult teacher, she gives you the test first and the lesson afterward

I think that there is room for improvement in any industry. the safer that we can make our work places the better. the best thing we can do is to think. evaluate your area and your surroundings. this is in anything people do. The miners at Sago did what they were taught if you can`t use a primary escapeway go for the secondary. law requires that all personel underground wear a self rescuer. they say they last an hour but that is dependent on the carbon monoxide levels, could last longer or they might not last that long. a self rescuer uses hopcalite to change carbon monoxide to carbon dioxide. If anyone can come up with better emergency breathing apperatus you will have every mine buying them from you. and I encourage anyone who is interested to visit the MSHA web site that was posted by remster.

yeah I think canadian and american teams work the same. canadian teams were utilized at the sunshine fire. perhaps we should train together also. btw who are you remster Experience is a difficult teacher, she gives you the test first and the lesson afterward

I wasn`t at Saco and all I can tell you is that I think mine rescue should have been utilized much sooner. Instead they brought in a drill rig to drill a hole from the surface? does this make sense to you? Experience is a difficult teacher, she gives you the test first and the lesson afterward

Mine comunications is a tough thing because radios don`t work underground without a cable called a leaky feeder, mine pager phones, cable also. these usually get ripped out in an explosion like that. have to completely resting them. Mine Saftey and Health Administration MSHA is the governing body of the mining industries. Mines are also required to train and keep a mine rescue team one site or to be covered by a niegboring mine. rl, not all mine have a union but the government has some pretty strict rules in escape plans. To work underground you have to spend 40 hrs in saftey training before you can go under. By law. Experience is a difficult teacher, she gives you the test first and the lesson afterward

I used to be captain of a mine rescue team and the unit I used is called a BG174A. It is a rebreather unit. You rebreath your exhaled air and oxy is added automatically and a catylist absorbs the co2. the units are heavy, complicated and generate heat. They get HOT!! The mine I work in now it is 5 miles to the workplace. We have refuge chambers set up. easy to seal, their own air supply, and potable water. we can last for days in one of these with no ill effects.I to have alot of questions about WV. like why was mine rescue not sent in immediately, they are trained for this, Why were there no refuge chambers. And yes one BG174A only lasts 4 hours. Long enough for one team. Get em out and send the next. Don`t need to lose a team due to heat and exposer. Only complicates things. Any other questions I will attempt to answer to. WV was a very sad day...... Experience is a difficult teacher, she gives you the test first and the lesson afterward

I want to be cremated and I want eveyone to have one hell of a wake. No crying just alot of fun. I`ve spent 18 years of my life underground already and believe me when I say it`s no place I want to spend eternity.

maybe the earth is rotating faster and pretty soon we will all flt off the ground and we will have to get a chute out to slow down so that damn plane can come get use if someone can get it off the ground: Experience is a difficult teacher, she gives you the test first and the lesson afterward
-
what the ground does is totally irrelevant to an airplane, takeoff or otherwise. this is why a float plane can take off of a river, upstream or down stream. all it takes to fly is air speed. Experience is a difficult teacher, she gives you the test first and the lesson afterward
-
the plane would roll right off the conveyor because the power is not supplied to the wheels, if the conveyor moved it would be in the same direction of the plane because of the friction of the wheels dragging on the surface. I.E. if all of the cars in the world pointed the same way and all accelerated at the same time could they change the earths rotation?

you have 4 basic factors in flight. thrust vs. drag and lift vs. weight. aerodynamics 101. to get off the ground you need to generate more lift than you have weight and to accelerate you need more thrust than drag.

throw a watermelon out of an airplane and try to catch it and you will have your answer. Don`t do it where the watermelon can hit anything on the ground. lots of velocity there and won`t do any good to what it hits!!!!!

Sorry for your loss. My deepest condolances and I hope they catch the scum and fry him! Experience is a difficult teacher, she gives you the test first and the lesson afterward
