scram

In accident analyses, we always assume conservatively that the first scram signal fails to work.

Scrams was minding his own business trying to do a Placepot when a roof tile started flying off, causing the rail-bookies to scarper.

He falls on to Johnny and in no time at all the rest of the class goes down like skittles, the bookshelf topples, music stands crash, curtains are wrenched loose, the cat scrams. Fittingly, Joe gives Elizabeth a well deserved ticking off and wrings an apology (of sorts) out of her.

The results from both simulation and statistical hypothesis testing are in consistent with Schnipke & Scrams (1999) in terms that the presence of disclosed items can inflate the final ability estimates in the context of CATs by an unacceptably high degree, especially for the low-ability examinees.

While the utility says the incident posed not safety problems as it occurred just before the reactor was to be halted manually, it obviously violated the Nuclear Reactor Regulation Law requiring the operator to immediately report to the government in case a reactor scrams.

Financial services scams: After offering you a guaranteed loan with an up-front fee, an operator takes your money and scrams.
