Konvertování v transportní loď (1915)

27. března 2012 v 22:47 | Autor |  Osudové okamžiky a kariéra
Vypukla první světová válka, všechny obavy z hrozícího nebezpečí byly na místě. Britská admiralita začala okamžitě jednat s rejdařstvími o jejich parnících které musely být povolány do státní služby. Když vypukla válka Olympic právě připlul do New Yorku. Kvůli nebezpečí ze strany ponorek byla loď před vyplutím do Anglie opatřena válečným nátěrem. Komíny Olympiku byly přetřeny na tmavě šedou a jeho nástavba na šedou a začernila se mu okna. Tento nátěr sloužil jako optický klam pro ponorky. Olympic se v tomto nátěru dostal bezpečně do Anglie.
Mezitím se o Olympiku rozhodovalo jakou funkci v armádě dostane. Olympiku byla zadána služba transportní lodi která měla převážet vojáky mezi Amerikou a Evropou. Mimo Olympic se ostatní lodě dostali do rukou admirality. Například Britannic, Cunardova Mauretania, Aquitania. Olympic poté sloužil na linkách ještě několik měsíců než byl zabaven.
Olympic byl stažen s pravidelných linek a přizpůsoben pro transport. Dražší vybavení bylo z lodi vyjmuto a uskladněno, a na palubu přibylo mnoho kavalců, a vojenského vybavení. Funkce transportní lodi přinesla Olympiku místo "RMS" před jménem zkratku "HMT" (His Majesty's Transport). Mimo jiné byla loď znovu přetřena do základního šedého nátěru ve kterém od září 1915 převážela vojáky do 4. dubna 1917 kdy byla přebarvena do kamuflážního nátěru.
Olympic se umístil do doku kde si ho přebralo několik desítek natěračů kteří byli pod vedením hlavního šéfa který určoval a kontroval rozložení obrazců na trupu. Pro Olympic se vybraly barvy, bílá, modrá, černá a šedá.
Natěrači si rozvrhnuli přesně kdo a kde bude natírat trup. Trup se rozvrhnul na sekce a křídou byly navržené obrazce. Po rozvržení se na boky lodi spustily lávky a mohlo se začít s nanášením barvy. Dálé se natíralo čelo s můstkem, člunová paluba, komíny, jeřáby a stěžně, Mimo nátěr byl Olympic opatřen těžkými obrannými děly, které se nainstalovaly na příď, příďovou mezinástavbou palubu a na záď. Ocelové boky příďové mezinástavbové se vyjmuly a byly nahrazeny klasickým zábradlím. Další změnou bylo zvýšení kapacity záchraných člunů, počet byl zvýšený na trojnásobek. Některé čluny které se na palubu dodaly byly i motorové. Olympic se vrátil do válečného provozu 4. dubna 1917. Olympic za celou válečnou kariéru byl u vojáků velice populární. Dokonce někteří vojáci Olympic neznali jeho pravým jménem ale jen přezdívkou "Old Reliable" ("Stará spolehlivá").

Some people, especially those running on busy daily schedules tend to use the pills to help maintain weight since they can not afford to follow all the diet programs. This is not advised. It is recommended that one seek advice from a professional in this field before using the pills. This can save one from many dangers associated with the misuse.

The diet pills should always be taken whole. Some people tend to divide the pills to serve a longer period of time. This is not advised and can lead to ineffectiveness. If it is required that one takes a complete tablet, it means that a certain amount of the ingredients are required to achieve the desired goal. It is also recommended that one does not crush the pill and dissolve it in beverages. Chemicals found in beverages have the potential of neutralizing the desired nutrients in the pill thereby leading to ineffectiveness. The best way to take the tablets is swallowing them whole with a glass of water.

The diet pills speed up the metabolic processes. This is the key factor that leads to the burning of all the fats in the body. This means that one passes out lots of urine, which subsequently leads to dehydration. It is imperative that the user take lots of water round the clock. This will help curb dehydration, which can lead to health problems. In addition to that, water offers the required medium for the function of the nutrients and elimination of the fats.

When buying the review of diet pills, it is imperative that one gets the most recommended dose. People tend to compromise the quality and effectiveness of the tablets due to the variation in cost. The low priced pills depict poor quality, which means their effectiveness is not reliable. Some have also been found to cause health problems. The dose should also be taken as recommended. Over dose will not speed up the process but rather lead to complication. This will increase risk of side effects. If the taking of the pill is forgotten, do not take more to compensate for the lost time.

The diet plan enclosed with the diet pills has also to be followed. According to the requirements, the termination of the diet must be done even with no results. This means your body is irresponsive.

Doctors have many challenges to face as they are perennially surrounded by patients, diseases, hospital duties and over-extended or odd shift timings. Universally, doctor is considered to be a noble profession and respectable one at that, but a doctor also has to work under immense pressures, emotional strains and other physical challenges.

A regular physician like most of us at some point face will have to deal with personal situations such as important family affairs, family holidays, sickness or pregnancy that may force them to abandon medical duties. At the same time, a hospital or a healthcare facility is also constantly faced with emergency situations that demand all hands on deck round-the-clock. Therefore, every hospital, clinic or nursing home is compelled to hire locum tenens or substitute doctor in order to keep the staffing under control at all times.

In fact, locum doctors are the most valuable asset for the medical community because they provide quality medical care and act as a helping-hand in emergency situations when the medical facilities need them the most.

Unlike regular or permanent doctors, locum doctor jobs are also ideal career options for medical interns and graduates because they offer a wide array of medical exposure in varied medical specialties, work cultures and healthcare systems. Locum jobs are challenging and flexible, thus an increasing number of medical professionals have benefitted from these jobs, so whether one is looking for a family physicians position or in a hospital or in a clinic, locum jobs for doctors are available at all levels and in different healthcare systems.

In addition, being a locum doctor gives a medical professional the control over their working hours, location of work and choice of area of specialisation. Technically, locum positions are not restricted to general physicians but they are also extended to other fields of medical specialisations such as cardiology, neurology and many more.

Travelling can be an integral part of locum jobs, and these distinctive features are a boon for many dedicated medical professionals who are eager to expand their medical careers with loads of multi-cultural medical experiences. The fact that locum agencies in the UK recruit tens of thousands of locums from across the globe in various NHS hospitals, private clinics, nursing homes and other public hospitals speaks volume of the popularity of locum jobs.

Locating or getting a locum tenens job is a simple task as long as you are registered with one of the many reputable locum agencies. These agencies act as the middle man between locum tenens and medical facilities, and they also look after all the details pertaining to travel for locum tenens, accommodation and the nature of locum work.

Thus, maintaining a healthy locum doctor-agency relationship benefits both the parties, and it also increases the probability of getting recommendable employment opportunities and businesses or vice-versa.
