History's Greatest Automotive Mysteries, Myths, and Rumors Revealed: James Dean's Killer Porsche, NA

Explore the origins of some of the automotive world's most intriguing stories, mysteries, myths, rumors, and legends. Fantastic stories have swirled around the automobile since the first car appeared over 100 years ago. History's Greatest Automotive Mysteries, Myths, and Rumors Revealedcompiles a juicy selection covering subjects from racing to automakers, crime to pop culture, and historical to modern day. Did you know that after James Dean's death behind the wheel of his Porsche 550 Spyder, parts of the car were sold off, and said parts then cursed their new owners? Or did they? Did you know Bonnie and Clyde stole Ford V-8s almost exclusively as getaway cars because they were the fastest cars of their day? Or that Clyde Barrow wrote Henry Ford a "thank-you" note for building the cars that made escaping his bank heists so successful? NASCAR has been the source of countless myths and legends. Did you know, for example, that a monkey by the name of Jocko Flocko once won a Grand National race? (Hall of Fame driver Tim Flock helped.) Or that one of the most famous stock cars in NASCAR lore-a Chevelle built by legendary rules-bender Smokey Yunick-never actually turned a lap on a racetrack? Did you ever hear the one about the 1964 Impala that flew into a cliff-at 350 miles per hour-in the Arizona desert, thereby winning the inaugural Darwin Award? How about the Ford Pinto that flew like a bird? Or the 68-horsepower Hyundai Excel that maxed out at 115 miles per hour while speeding Rodney King to a rendezvous that would eventually lead to the L.A. Riots? What was the first car to break the sound barrier? Who won the first Indy 500? What kind of car was dancer Isadora Duncan in when she was killed? What car performed the most spectacular stunt in the James Bond movie oeuvre? In all of these cases, the answers may not be what you think. These are just a few of the automotive world's crazy stories, mysteries, myths, and legends. Listen and be amazed!

Pass the respirator fit test exam with ease: Over 100 practice questions and detailed answers

This audiobook is a study guide to prepare for the Respirator Fit Test CNC method exam. It presents more than hundred questions and answers relating to human respiratory system and defence mechanisms, health effects of airborne contaminants, respiratory hazards in the workplace, general respiratory fit testing and respiratory selection requirements, and a sample script to prepare for the submission of a video demonstrating respiratory fit testing by the CNC (Condensation Nuclei Counter) method. Respirator fit testing is a process used to determine whether a particular respiratory protective equipment (RPE) fits an individual properly and provides an adequate seal to protect against hazardous substances. Fit testing is required for tight-fitting respirators, from disposable filtering facepieces to reusable full-face respirators, including some respirators that typically operate in positive pressure mode. There are several methods that can be used for respirator fit testing, including the CNC (Condensation Nuclei Counter) method. The CNC method involves measuring the particulate concentration inside the respirator while the user is wearing it and performing a series of exercises or movements to simulate the physical demands of the job. If the ratio between the air concentration inside the respirator and outside of the respirator meets the respiratory protection standard it is considered to have a good fit. To prepare for the RESP-FIT CNC method exam, this book provides the listener the principles and procedures of respirator fit testing, including the CNC method. This includes excerpts from Australian and International Standards and guidelines and learning about the various types of RPE and their specific fit testing requirements. The listener should also become familiar with the equipment and procedures used in fit testing, as well as the potential risks and limitations of the CNC method.

قوة الفرح

«إن الفرح لا ينمو في الظلام، لكنه ينتشر في نور الصباح». في هذا الكتاب، يحاول الفيلسوف وعالم الاجتماع الفرنسي «فريدريك لونوار»، تفسير شعور الفرح، ويتحدث عن مسارين مهمين لبلوغه: طريق نقطعه نحو ذاتنا، وطريق نتجه فيه ناحية الآخرين. وأن علينا تهيئة أنفسنا لتلقي الفرح بالانتباه والحضور، وبالثقة والعطاء والتواصل مع العالم بطريقةٍ صحيحة. لكن متى وكيف يأتي الفرح وما منابعه؟ يستعرض الكاتب في بداية كتابه ثلاثة مفاهيم مرتبطة بالشعور الإنساني: اللذة والسعادة والفرح. ويتناول آراء الفلاسفة حول تعريف هذه المشاعر، مثل أبيقور وأرسطو والرواقيين وسبينوزا ونيتشه وبرغسون. ويجادل الكاتب أن الفرح شعورًا مختلفًا عن السعادة واللذة؛ فالفرح أقوى وأعمق، ويُحدِّث هزة عنيفة في الشعور الإنساني. لذا نجد أن شعور الفرح غالبًا ما يتبعه قفزة، وهنا يكمن جوهر موضوع الكاتب في حديثه عن قوة الفرح. استمع الآن.
