3)     In this case, EN corrosion rates correlated best with the mass loss corrosion data obtained by post-test evaluation of the probe elements.

4)     Additional functionality of this advanced device also allowed understanding of corrosion spikes by assessment of the galvanic currents between electrodes caused by removal of corrosion films by turbulent action during the test.

5)     With such an approach…

6)     Until recently, field instruments were rather rudimentary and mainly provided only semiquantitative indications of corrosion and no indication of corrosion modality.

7)     Another distinct benefit of..

8)     In order to make a tie-in to the existing subsea pipeline, it seems for me the best way is to employ the hot-tapping in case the system shutdowm is not permitted.

9)     The offshore requirements include three production tie-in platforms standing in the waters of the Persian Gulf. These platforms will gather crude flow from individual wells before the oil enters an underwater trunkline leading to the shore. An underwater pipeline system consisting of a main trunkline and smaller-diameter lines to the individual wells will also be required. A variety of work boats will be needed to service the wells.

10) The onshore requirements include a gas-oil separator plant; a pumping station to move the "separated" crude through a tie-in to an already-existing major pipeline system; electrification from Ras Tanura to Khursaniyah; and new, 3,000-horsepower pipeline booster pumps, which will be the largest electric motor-driven pumps ever installed in Saudi Arabia.

11) Concurrent with drilling operations, XXX crews assembled 15,900 ft of 6 inch steel pipe in two sections along a temporary work area.

12) The combined weight of the two sections was in excess of 450,000 lb.

13)  Upon completion, all welds were x-ray inspected and the pipe was pressure tested, ensuring pipeline integrity before it was installed under the Sound.

2 : the air bladder of a fish

21) Ohio University will hold a memorial service in honor of Fritz J. Russ, longtime alumnus, benefactor and friend of the university.

22) The service will take place at Galbreath Chapel at 1:30 p.m. with a reception in Baker University Center’s Elizabeth Baker Room immediately following.

23) They feature personal narratives as well as suggestions for making Ohio University a more inclusive and diverse place.

24) A convincing argument can be made that the second-best coating over the best surface preparation will perform better than the best coating over the second-best surface preparation.

25) Grit blast

26) For parts which will be used in fatigue/fretting applications, this process can be beneficial because it imparts residual compressive stresses on the surface of the parts, thus lengthening their lives under cyclic loads.

27) As we ramp up (build up, strengthen) for NACE2005 in Houston in April, we are adding a few things.

28) They came out rested.

29)  Mavericks were coming off a 40-piont victory over Houston in a Game 7 of their first-round series.

30) Steven Nash was presented the league's most valuable player trophy by NBA commissioner David Stern before the game, holding it high above his head for the cheering crowd.

31) Search is a monthly newsletter that features news items from…

32) Current and prospective students, Ohio University faculty and staff, and community members are invited to attend the event, which will highlight how students are involved in the university’s research endeavors.

33) Currently, the training is optional, with a phased implementation plan. The first phase will require any individual who is submitting an IRB proposal and has not previously completed training to complete the CITI module, rather than the module currently being used.

34) Lavish golf complexes

35) A policy of retreat and isolation will not bring us safety," Bush said Monday in a speech to the Veterans of Foreign Wars national convention in Salt Lake City. Repeatedly citing the Sept. 11 attacks, he said, "The only way to defend our citizens where we live is to go after the terrorists where they live."

36) Each of these heroes left a legacy that will allow generations of their fellow Americans to enjoy the blessings of liberty

37) by staying on the offensive against the terrorists, and building strong allies in Afghanistan and Iraq that will help us win and fight — fight and win the war on terror

38) Recent polls have shown growing public dissatisfaction with the president's handling of the war in Iraq in the face of a persistent insurgency and the mounting U.S. death toll.

39) a number that had been hovering in the low- to mid-40s most of the year — dipped to 38 percent.

40) Some lawmakers from both parties are urging Bush to set a timetable for withdrawal, or at least lay out a strategy for leaving

41) criticized Bush's speech as "more of the same sloganeering

42) an effort to build support for the conflict by reaffirming his commitment to help Iraq transition from tyranny to democracy and urging the public's patience with his policy.
