The Overhaul is Kathleen Jamie’s first collection since the award-winning The Tree House, and it broadens her poetic range considerably. The Overhaul continues Jamie’s lyric enquiry into the aspects of the world our rushing lives elide, and even threaten. Whether she is addressing birds or rivers, or the need to accept loss, or sometimes, the desire to escape our own lives, her work is earthy and rigorous, her language at once elemental and tender. As an essayist, she has frequently queried our human presence in the world with the question ‘How are we to live?’ Here, this is answered more personally than ever. The Overhaul is a mid-life book of repair, restitution, and ultimately hope – of the wisest and most worldly kind.

A uniquely informed investigative account of one of the biggest financial crises of President Obama’s early administration During his first year in office, President Obama faced the possibility of more than a million lost jobs as GM and Chrysler headed for financial ruin. He joined forces with Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner and economic advisor Larry Summers in a historic government intervention to keep these two auto-industry giants afloat, working against a ticking clock and fielding vocal opposition from free market champions along the way. It's from this vantage point that former New York Times financial journalist Steven Rattner witnesses a new administration's grace under pressure in the face of gross corporate mismanagement—a scenario rich in hard-earned lessons for managers and executives in any industry.

Generation after generation, engineers have maintained the barricade, a shield that protects civilization against Turbulence, this strange force that destroys both minds and machines.

Winner of the 2021 Southwest Book Award from the Border Regional Library Association In Overhaul, historians Richard Flint and Shirley Cushing Flint present the largely forgotten story of Albuquerque's locomotive repair shops, which were the driving force behind the city's economy for more than seventy years. In the course of their study they also document the thousands of skilled workers who kept the locomotives in operation, many of whom were part of the growing Hispano and Native American middle class. Their critical work kept the Atchison, Topeka, and Santa Fe's steam trains running and established and maintained Albuquerque's unique character in the region. Including a generous selection of historic photographs, Overhaul provides a glimpse into the people, places, culture, and special history found in Albuquerque's locomotive shops during the boom of steam railroading. The Flints provide an engaging and informative account of how these shops and workers played a crucial role in the formation and development of the Duke City.

BOOST PROFITS AND REDUCE COSTS BY EFFICIENTLY DELIVERING SUPERIOR MRO SERVICES Lean Maintenance Repair and Overhaul describes how MRO organizations can achieve significant improvement in financial performance by applying the Theory of Constraints (TOC) to guide the implementation of Lean manufacturing tools. This Lean/TOC approach facilitates a growth strategy by providing customer value, such as faster turnaround times, that the competition cannot match. Lean/TOC creates the capacity for this growth by eliminating waste. This practical guide shows how Lean/TOC also provides the improvement strategy for dealing with the variation that distinguishes MRO from high-volume, repetitive manufacturing. The methodology expands the improvement efforts beyond the manufacturing floor to make the organizational changes needed to facilitate growth and to empower the workforce to be enthusiastic participants in the improvement processes. You will learn how these concepts have been applied to MRO organizations in the commercial and defense sectors. COMPREHENSIVE COVERAGE INCLUDES: The MRO business opportunity The goal of Lean and how Lean for MRO is different Achieving sustained growth in the MRO business Managing the MRO process Enabling flow in an MRO environment The Lean MRO toolkit Managing the back-shops Creating a visual culture for the implementation of Lean/TOC

This book explores the weak explanatory and predictive power of theories across disciplines, explains reasons for limited expertise after centuries of scientific effort, and sets forth strategies to accelerate knowledge and manage a future we can only dimly comprehend. Gaps in knowledge arose because common, natural and artificial phenomena are fundamentally hard to understand, and in expertise persists because research is unproductive. This book argues that weak research comes with huge opportunity cost because it stymies optimum decision making by government, corporations and individuals. Research needs restructuring which must come from governments’ top down requirement that funding bodies foster applied research with real-world impact, and that universities influence scientific publishers to improve their publications’ integrity. This book seeks to catalyse extinction events for theories in most disciplines, which would clear a path for solving multiple crises in research. The author cautions that this process would be disruptive, unpopular and painful.

Excerpt from Earthwork Haul and Overhaul: Including Economic Distribution Engineers responsible for overhaul computation may be aided in selecting a method of computation by reading Sections 47 5 5, 146 and 203; and can obtain uniform results by merely direct ing their subordinates to follow the instructions given in Chapter VI or Chapter VII for the selected method. Computers, having been directed to use a given method of computing overhaul, will find in either Chapter VI or Chapter VII a complete plan of procedure under the method. Railroad contractors about to submit bids on work involving overhaul, will find the descriptions of bases and methods of computation of overhaul, given in Chapters V, VI, and VII, a ready means of coming to a definite understanding with rail road engineers as to the way in which the overhaul is to be computed. Students of overhaul, in school or out, will find in Chapters I - V a full presentation of each of the elements of overhaul computation. The beginner is advised to proceed at once to compute the overhaul for some simple case similar to that shown in Fig. 19, by Method IV (sections 89 studying the refer emees under each step no more than may be necessary to execute the step intelligently. A working knowledge of the essentials and routine of one method thus acquired furnishes the ground work necessary for the most profitable study of other portions of the book. Men called upon from time to time, in class-room or office, to give instruction in overhaul computation, will find Part I a treatise from which portions can be selected to fulfill require ments for a course short or long according to the time available for the subject. The fact that the writer is entitled to full membership in this class may be taken as a guaranty that the teacher's interests have not been overlooked herein. Part II is devoted to the elements of the problem of economic distribution, and presents a thorough treatment of the solution of this problem by the use of the mass curve. The attention of those who are familiar with the previously printed matter bearing on haul and overhaul is directed to Sections 2 - 9 (swell and distribution); 15 - 19 (concerning the mass curve); 43, 44 (crosshaul) Chapter VI (data and solution of a simple overhaul problem, by each of eight methods); Chap ter VII (data and solution of complex overhaul problem from practice, by each of five methods); Fig. 36 (statement of over haul computed by various methods); and nearly all of Part II.
