Joint-stock Company
A joint-stock company is a business entity in which shares of the company's capital stock, stock can be bought and sold by shareholders. Each shareholder owns company stock in proportion, evidenced by their share (finance), shares (certificates of ownership). Shareholders are able to transfer their shares to others without any effects to the continued existence of the company. In modern-day corporate law, the existence of a joint-stock company is often synonymous with incorporation (business), incorporation (possession of legal personality separate from shareholders) and limited liability (shareholders are liable for the company's debts only to the value of the money they have invested in the company). Therefore, joint-stock companies are commonly known as corporations or limited company, limited companies. Some jurisdiction (area), jurisdictions still provide the possibility of registering joint-stock companies without limited liability. In the United Kingdom and in other count ...

OK-650 Reactor
The OK-650 reactor is the nuclear fission reactor used for powering the Soviet Navy's Project 685 Плавник/''Plavnik'' (Mike), Project 971 Щука-Б/''Shchuka-B'' ( Akula), and Project 945 Барракуда/''Barrakuda'', Кондор/''Kondor'', and Марс/''Mars'' ( Sierra) submarines, and in pairs to power the Project 941 Акула/''Akula'' (Typhoon) and Project 949 Гранит/''Granit'' and Антей/''Antei'' ( Oscar) third generation submarines. This pressurized water reactor (PWR) uses 20-45% enriched uranium-235 fuel to produce 190 MW of thermal power. Developed during the 1970s, these reactors were designed with the aim of minimizing accidents and malfunctions. Monitoring subsystems, designed for rapid detection of leaks, were included, along with newer-generation emergency cooling systems for the main reactor core. The reactor is now also used to power the new Project 955 Borei submarines. It was developed by OKBM Afrikantov OKBM Afrikantov ...

AD Reactor
Advertising is the practice and techniques employed to bring attention to a product or service. Advertising aims to put a product or service in the spotlight in hopes of drawing it attention from consumers. It is typically used to promote a specific good or service, but there are wide range of uses, the most common being the commercial advertisement. Commercial advertisements often seek to generate increased consumption of their products or services through "branding", which associates a product name or image with certain qualities in the minds of consumers. On the other hand, ads that intend to elicit an immediate sale are known as direct-response advertising. Non-commercial entities that advertise more than consumer products or services include political parties, interest groups, religious organizations and governmental agencies. Non-profit organizations may use free modes of persuasion, such as a public service announcement. Advertising may also help to reassure employees ...

OK-190M Reactor
State Highway 19, abbreviated as SH-19, is a highway running through the southern part of the U.S. state of Oklahoma. It is signed east–west. Route description SH-19 begins at an intersection with US-283 in Blair, Oklahoma. SH-19 heads east from Blair for 23 miles (37 km) without intersecting another highway before meeting U.S. Highway 183 north of Roosevelt. It continues eastward, sharing a 3-mile (4.8 km) section of road with State Highway 54 before splitting off to the east and briefly overlapping with SH-115 and State Highway 58. The next town Highway 19 encounters is Apache, north of Lake Ellsworth, where it crosses U.S. Highway 62/ 281. Nine miles (14½ km) later, it overlaps with U.S. Highway 277 at Cyril. These two overlap with US-81 near Ninnekah, but SH-19 splits off to the east once again within 3 miles (4.8 km). After splitting off, SH-19 travels in a southeast direction to have a brief concurrency with State Highway 76 through Lindsa ...

OK-180 Reactor
State Highway 18, abbreviated as SH-18 or OK-18, is a highway maintained by the United States, U.S. state of Oklahoma. It was once one of the longest state highways in the Oklahoma road system, but now has a total length of . Route description State Highway 18 was commissioned in August 1924 and, at one time, traveled from Dickson, Oklahoma to Shidler, Oklahoma at the Kansas border. Much of SH-18 has been replaced by U.S. Highway 177 (Oklahoma), US-177. The current Highway 18 begins in Shawnee, Oklahoma at an interchange with US-177/270 and SH-3W. The highway is known as Harrison Street through Shawnee. After Shawnee, SH-18 intersects with U.S. Highway 62 (Oklahoma), US-62 in Meeker, Oklahoma and then into Chandler, Oklahoma concurrent with State Highway 66 (Oklahoma), SH-66. The highways split after leaving Chandler's business district. SH-18 intersects with Interstate 44 (Oklahoma), I-44 and then travels on to Agra, Oklahoma. At Agra, SH-18 joins with State Highway 33 (Ok ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
AV Reactor
Av (also Menachem Av, ; from Akkadian ''ʾAbū'' "father") is the eleventh month of the civil year and the fifth month of the ecclesiastical year on the Hebrew calendar. The name comes from Araḫ Abu, "month of Abu", from the Babylonian calendar. The name ''Ab'' ( ar, آﺏ) also appears in the Arabic language for the month of August in the Levant (see Arabic names of calendar months).The name first appears in Second Temple literature, such as Megillat Taanit. It is one of several months which are not explicitly named in the Hebrew Bible (Tanakh). It is a month of 30 days. ''Av'' usually occurs in July–August on the Gregorian calendar. The Babylonian Talmud, Taanit 29a, states that "when we enter he month of''Av'', our joy is diminished". This is because the darkest events in Jewish history occurred during the first week and a half of this month, particularly the Nine Days which culminate in ''Tisha B'Av'', the 9th of ''Av''. However, there is a minor and largely unknown holid ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
VBER-300
The VBER-300 is a proposed Russian pressurized water reactor of 325-MWe generating capacity designed for remote locations. The exterior containment structure is 16 meters high and the working section, built with transportable modules, weighs 1300 tonnes. The external steam plant can have a 917 MW thermal-steam only capacity, or 325 MW steam-turbine-electrical capacity, or a mixture of capacities relating to the four primary steam loops. In particular, it has been proposed in a more powerful sister ship to the ''Akademik Lomonosov'' (2010) for possible use on the Russian floating nuclear power station (two reactors on a 49,000-tonne barge). The reactor could be used on a 200–500 MW barge that is expected to be completed by 2030. The reactor has been proposed for use in water desalination, district heating and/or electrical generation. The VBER-300 would use VVER-type fuel. It was developed by OKBM Afrikantov in cooperation with Kurchatov Institute. See also * ...
