Abstract:
This article brings to light the work of six bridge engineer-designers whose Southern California bridges facilitated transportation in the 1910–1930 period of the region’s explosive growth. Their firms were local, most were architects as well as engineers, and their bridges remain cherished landmarks.

Abstract:
Some histories of California describe nineteenth-century efforts to reclaim the extensive swamplands and shallow lakes in the southern part of California's San Joaquin Valley – then the largest natural wetlands habitat west of the Mississippi River – as a herculean venture to tame a boggy wilderness and turn the region into an agricultural paradise. Yet an 1850s proposition for draining those marshes and lakes primarily was a scheme to improve the state's transportation. Swampland reclamation was a secondary goal. Transport around the time of statehood in 1850 was severely lacking in Californi

Abstract:
Abstract. Sources of methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O) were investigated using measurements from a site in southeast Bakersfield as part of the CalNex (California at the Nexus of Air Quality and Climate Change) experiment from mid-May to the end of June 2010. Typical daily minimum mixing ratios of CH4 and N2O were higher than daily minima that were simultaneously observed at a mid-oceanic background station (NOAA, Mauna Loa) by approximately 70 ppb and 0.5 ppb, respectively. Substantial enhancements of CH4 and N2O (hourly averages > 500 and > 7 ppb, respectively) were routinely obser

Abstract:
6512 Background: Cancer patients are nearly 3x more likely to declare bankruptcy than people without cancer. However, little is known about the dynamics of the healthcare provider/patient (pt) conversations around cost issues, the range of topics explored, and the factors that may influence them. We reviewed audio recordings of a cross-section of medical oncology conversations to determine frequency, patterns and attitudes of pts and providers on cost. Methods: We audio recorded conversations between 5/3/2012 & 11/20/2013 for adult patients with any solid tumor malignancy seen in an outpat

e17549 Background: PT E PREP is important (Katrina, Los Angeles fires 2007, 2008). MOASC developed the ONC PT E Network (OPEN) (www.open-central.com; Proc ASCO 2006 a6142, 2007 a17003 , and 2008 a6545). On Novermber 13, 2008, 28 organizations and sponsors (US and Cal govt and private) conducted the GSCSO drill with a Richter scale 7.8 earthquake. MOASC tested OPEN as part of GSCSO. Methods: In OPEN, PTs were given wallet cards with E information (diagnosis, stage, treatment, doses). As part of GSCSO, MOASC a) surveyed two practices in two counties to evaluate ONC PT motivation and PREP; and b)

Abstract:
The oil and gas business has become as much about bytes as barrels in recent years. Artificial intelligence, the internet of things (IoT), big data, and the ongoing digitization of the industry have not only made it a more-efficient machine but also a target to unscrupulous sorts looking to confound, cash in, and move on. As more information comes forward regarding the May 2021 ransomware attack on Colonial Pipeline, it appears to have been a cash grab with the knock-on effect of physically crippling the company’s flow of fuel to East Coast states.

Abstract:
The Port of Long Beach, in cooperation with the Port of Los Angeles and the Corps of Engineers, has been working on the development of a Master Plan for the San Pedro Bay area. This Master Plan, nicknamed the "2020 Plan", is intended to project the Port's land and channel requirements through the year 2020. Any landfill expansion program would be implemented in phases throughout the life of the Master Plan. The initial phases of such a plan would greatly limit the ability of the Port to revise the future configuration of landfill phases, making it important for the Port to determine a final la
