 Reference.com/Encyclopedia/Dam
Earth dams, also called earthen and earth-fill dams, are constructed as a simple homogeneous embankment of well-compacted earth, sometimes with a watertight concrete or clay core or upstream face, or sometimes with a hydraulic fill to produce a watertight core.
A type of temporary earth dam occasionally used in high latitudes is the frozen-core dam, in which a coolant is circulated through pipes inside the dam to maintain a watertight region of permafrost within it.
Rock-fill dams are embankments of loose rock with either a watertight upstream face of concrete slabs or timber or a watertight core.

 Three-phase testing - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Tests should be made between A and B, A and C, B and C, A and earth, B and earth, and C and earth.
Typical parameters are 208 or 415 volts between phases, 120 or 240 volts from any phase to earth or ground, voltage within 12% of nominal values, and each phase within 5% of each other.
In a typical three-phase induction motor circuit, an appropriate place to test is at the line side of the direct-on-line motor starter.

 Quenya Poems by Ryszard Derdzinski
But three Elves awoke first of all, and they were elf-men, for elf-men are more strong in body and more eager and adventurous in strange places.
According to this legend the Three Clans of the Quendi were in the beginning derived from three Elf-fathers: Imin, Tata, and Enel.
These three Elf-fathers are named in the ancient tales Imin, Tata, and Enel.

 Christ's three days in Hell by Alvin Boyd Kuhn
As he had given three years to preach salvation to the living on the earth, so he could give three days to a similar mission to the dead in the underworld.
This lower region would extend over the three kingdoms below man in the evolution of life, animal, vegetable and mineral, and presumably the sub-elemental, sub-atomic level of life which our wondrous modern science is now exploring.
He came to earth to save not only those who were fortunate enough to have been blessed with a knowledge of his message and those to come in the future, but as well those who, having lived prior to his advent, had missed his preaching on earth.

 Tract 10 - "The Sign Of Jonah"
Consequently the statement, "three days and three nights in the heart of the earth," must stand for something more than simply His being in the grave, as interpreted by some.
In other words, the chart shows that it is utterly impossible in three short hours to have at least one trial before the Sanhedrin, two before Pilate, and one before Herod, making a total of no less than four trials, besides the time to crucify Him.
So at the close of each sabbatical year, the lunar sabbath-keeper, in order to keep time with the weekly cycle, as well as with the rotation of the earth and of the moon, would have to make the earth stand still 29 days and the moon 18 days.

If you only take their wins on the wrong side of 30, ignoring what they did in their first three decades on earth, Niekro ranks 36th all-time in career wins and Spahn ranks 38th.
ARod has averaged 52 homers a season over the last three years.
That means he's got three seasons to add to his 30 and Under total, which likely means he'll be at the top of the list at some point.

 Kepler Mission: A Search for Terrestrial Planets

 Elves By the Numbers - Suite101.com
The three groups were named for the first three Elves to awaken: Imin (one), Tata (two), and Enel (three).
That is, it is a genuine record of Elvish history, just as a third-grade social studies book may be regarded as a genuine record of our history despite its simplifications of many historical events.
Now they find a group of 18 Elves sleeping on the ground, and Tata follows Imin's lead and claims these 18 for his special companions.

Earth, Wind & Fire original member Verdine White notes, "Everybody thought this would be a great ticket, a great package to see three different kinds of bands who were from the same era, but three different types of styles on one bill."
Earth Wind & Fire will appear on Honey Nut Cheerios boxes in an offer for a CD-sampler containing tunes from the three groups.
When the tour wraps up in October, Earth, Wind & Fire will begin to work on the group's next album with its founder, Maurice White, and hip hop artist Wyclef Jean as producers.

 The Book of Earths: The Tetrahedral Earth
Plate XLVIII is a drawing of the Earth as a Tetrahedron or three-sided pyramid; it appeared in the New York World, October 24, 1926, as an illustration to a review of Théophile Moreux's Astronomy To-day.
These are the words that gave the image that produced this latest figure to be drawn of the Earth, a tetrahedron or three-sided pyramid, with four continents and four oceans, spinning in space.
20], supposed to be three-fourths covered by water attracted towards the centre of gravity of the figure, represents generally all the continents and oceans on the globe in their actual relative positions.

 That one small step
The first was a colossal three-stage launch vehicle, the Saturn V. The second was a command and service module in which three astronauts would travel to the moon and return to Earth.
Three approaches for the Apollo mission were considered and investigated early in the program: direct ascent, Earth orbit rendezvous, and lunar orbit rendezvous.
Direct ascent would entail a direct shot from Earth to the moon, requiring an enormous rocket assembly, named the Nova rocket, that required 15 first stage engines and would dwarf the Saturn V eventually selected as the launch vehicle.

 Nampower Press Release
This applies particularly to the stringing of a single conductor as opposed to three conductors as for the conventional three-phase line and the fact that longer spans and therefore fewer poles can be used.
Powering the Nation and Beyond Single Wire Earth Return (SWER) power networks have been introduced to Namibia during 1994 to bring power to some of the more remote areas of the country.
Although the system is still sensitive to lightning, technicians found the SWER to be far more reliable than the conventional three-phase line.

 :: LFM-SDM NEWS :::
The interplanetary supply chain encompasses the transfer of goods and associated information from terrestrial suppliers to launch sites, the integration of payloads onto launch vehicles and launch to Low Earth Orbit (LEO), the in-space transfer of payloads from LEO to the Moon and Mars as well as planetary surface logistics.
Although there are a vast number of scientific principles and techniques that have been developed since World-War-II to improve the effectiveness and efficiency of supply chain management (SCM) in the private and military sectors on Earth, the potential benefits of this body-of-knowledge are currently only poorly understood in the context of space exploration.
The next phase will involve space logistics network analysis, during which the team will build an integrated network model of space logistics, where the nodes are Earth-Moon-Mars-orbits and expected landing-exploration sites.

 The Vortex Reviews and Analysis :: Elfangor vs. Visser Three
Visser Three with his Andalite host, and Elfangor and his life on Earth with Loren.
So Visser Three (I'm not going to confuse you by reffering to his different ranks throughout the years, thus he'll just be V3) was moderatly experienced in war and combat, while Elfangor was just a trainee who by all rights probably shouldn't be fighting yet anyway.
Injured, he was basically helpless against Visser Three and his small army, but he fought back with every weapon he had, from his only personal weapon: his tail, to the thought-controlled weapons on his ship to demolish the Yeerk ships which had also landed.
