Britain preparations

The RSS was used by pro- and anti-nuclear power advocates in the Proposition 15 (nuclear power ban) voting in California the Barsebek and Ringhals PSAs were prepared as part of the nuclear controversy in Sweden the German Risk Study, 1981, had similar applications as did the Sizewell-B studies in Great Britain,... 

Not all problems were solved, however, and different usages were encountered on the two sides of the Atlantic. A joint British-American committee was therefore set up, and in 1952 it published Rules for Carbohydrate Nomenclature [18]. This work was continued, and a revised version was endorsed in 1963 by the American Chemical Society and by the Chemical Society in Britain and published [19]. The publication of this report led the IUPAC Commission on Nomenclature of Organic Chemistry to consider the preparation of a set of IUPAC Rules for Carbohydrate Nomenclature. This was done jointly with the IUPAC-IUB Commission on Biochemical Nomenclature, and resulted in the Tentative Rules for Carbohydrate Nomenclature, Part I, 1969 , published in 1971/72 in several journals [1]. It is a revision of this 1971 document that is presented here. In the present document, recommendations are designated 2-Carb-n, to distinguish them from the Carb-n recommendations in the previous publication. 

In Britain and America the most common form of cocaine is as a white crystalline powder. Most users sniff it up the nose, often through a rolled banknote or straw, but it can also be made into a solution and injected. Crack is a smokable form of cocaine made into small lumps or rocks . It is usually smoked but can also be prepared for injection. Because it is such a fast-acting drug and the powerful effects wear off quickly, repeated use is common, and since cocaine is a relatively expensive drug it has become closely associated with a rich lifestyle. 

According to EPA (1986a), lead was used in preparations sold as abortifacients in Britain around the turn of the century. These preparations were apparently effective at levels that produced marked signs of lead poisoning in the women. The available studies were methodologically inadequate and did not provide dose-effect information. Evidence for adverse reproductive outcomes in women with obvious lead poisoning is of little help in defining the effects of lead at much lower exposure levels.

The famous Chinese firecracker uses a mixture of potassium chlorate, sulfur, and aluminum. The chlorate combined with sulfur makes this mixture doubly dangerous for the manufacturer. The ignition temperature of the potassium chlorate/sulfur system is less than 200°C The presence of aluminum - an excellent fuel - guarantees that the pyrotechnic reaction will rapidly propagate once it begins. Safety data from China is unavailable, but one has to wonder how many accidents occur annually from the preparation of this firecracker composition. The preparation of potassium chlorate/sulfur compositions was banned in Great Britain in 1894 because of the numerous accidents associated with this mixture ... 

Dynamite primer and in Gt Britain primer cartridge" For its preparation, one cuts across a safety fuse with a clean sharp knife (or fuse-cutter) a required length and inserts freshly cut end into open end of blasting cap. Using a proper crimping tool, the cap is crimped near its open end to hold the fuse securely in position. This combination is... 

The question of how best to defend Britain against invasion had long divided the services. The Admiralty argued that money was better spent on warships than on fortifications. The War Office was not prepared to concede that the army had no role in home defence, given the possibility that enemy raids might evade the navy. The CID s first investigation of...
