Central command

Four different localizations of fatigue can be identified (a) decreased central command (b) decreased activation of the muscle membrane and the T-tubular system (c) decreased Ca release from the SR and (d) decreased response to the Ca release by the contractile proteins. The first two are partly extra-muscular while c and d are intramuscular responses to the excitation of the muscle membrane and often defined as excitation-contraction coupling. [Pg.241]

At the onset of exercise, signals from the cerebral cortex are transmitted to the vasomotor center in the medulla of the brainstem. This central command inhibits parasympathetic activity and also initiates the mass sympathetic discharge associated with exercise. Sympathetic activity (including release of catecholamines from the adrenal medulla) increases proportionally with the intensity of exercise. [Pg.218]

Examples of such approaches that assess and weave together options in the context of acceptable levels of risk can be found with the Navy Component, Central Command (NAVCENT) the British Royal Navy the U.S. Air Force and commercial fleet operators and emergency responders. [Pg.44]

The arc of the story is the journey of the main character to disillusionment in the very cause in which he enlisted. The story begins with an aura of camaraderie in a particular militia unit. The unit is democratic, its members principled and brave. They succeed in combat. Slowly, however, the unit is fractured by orders from Moscow—a requirement to obey a central command (implied to be controlled by Moscow). Dissension among the group leads some to join the organized army, others to remain in the militia. The final confrontation occurs when Republican soldiers, commanded by a former member of the militia, order the men of the militia unit to surrender their arms and its leaders to submit to arrest and prosecution. The confrontation ends with the death of a female member of the militia. The group is disbanded, and the main character becomes a man hunted by the very forces who represent the cause he... [Pg.177]

Emergency response and control The response to the emergency was totally inadequate. For example, even though there were not enough lifeboat seats for everyone on board, many of the lifeboats that did escape from the ship were not filled. And there was no strong, central command during the evacuation. [Pg.57]
