5 put the cart before the horse
"ставить телегу перед лошадью"; делать шиворот-навыворот; ставить с ног на головуBut when these factors are declared to be the explanation of Indian poverty then the cart is put before the horse. (R. P. Dutt, ‘India Today’, ch. III) — Утверждать, что бедность в Индии можно объяснить этими факторами, - значит принимать следствие за причину.
Matters were made worse because what Rick was trying to do was to put the cart before the horse... Rickover could not wait for the AEC's horse to be born, so he jumped directly to the Navy's cart. In the process Rick also jumped from captain to admiral... (R. E. Lapp, ‘Atoms and People’, ch. XI) — Положение осложнилось еще тем, что Рик пытался "поставить телегу перед лошадью"... Риковеру было некогда ждать, пока лошадь комиссии по атомной энергии появится на свет; поэтому он сразу же вскочил на телегу военно-морского флота. При этом сам Рик выскочил из капитанов в адмиралы...
To learn to dive before learning to swim well seems to me to be putting the cart before the horse. (HAI) — Тот, кто пытается нырять, не научившись хорошо плавать, поступает, как мне кажется, вопреки здравому смыслу.

10 Davis, Robert Henry
SUBJECT AREA: Ports and shipping[br]b. 6 June 1870 London, Englandd. 29 March 1965 Epsom, Surrey, England[br]English inventor of breathing, diving and escape apparatus.[br]Davis was the son of a detective with the City of London police. At the age of 11 he entered the employment of Siebe, Gorman \& Co., manufacturers of diving and other safety equipment since 1819, at their Lambeth works. By good fortune, his neat handwriting attracted the notice of Mr Gorman and he was transferred to work in the office. He studied hard after working hours and rose steadily in the firm. In his twenties he was promoted to Assistant Manager, then General Manager, Managing Director and finally Governing Director. He retired in 1960, having been made Life President the previous year, and continued to attend the office regularly until May 1964.Davis's entire career was devoted to research and development in the firm's special field. In 1906 he perfected the first practicable oxygen-breathing apparatus for use in mine rescue; it was widely adopted and with modifications was still in use in the 1990s. With Professor Leonard Hill he designed a deep-sea diving-bell incorporating a decompression chamber. He also invented an oxygen-breathing apparatus and heated apparel for airmen flying at high altitudes.Immediately after the first German gas attacks on the Western Front in April 1915, Davis devised a respirator, known as the stocking skene or veil mask. He quickly organized the mass manufacture of this device, roping in members of his family and placing the work in the homes of Lambeth: within 48 hours the first consignment was being sent off to France.He was a member of the Admiralty Deep Sea Diving Committee, which in 1933 completed tables for the safe ascent of divers with oxygen from a depth of 300 ft (91 m). They were compiled by Davis in conjunction with Professors J.B.S.Haldane and Leonard Hill and Captain G.C.Damant, the Royal Navy's leading diving expert. With revisions these tables have been used by the Navy ever since. Davis's best-known invention was first used in 1929: the Davis Submarine Escape Apparatus. It became standard equipment on submarines until it was replaced by the Built-in Breathing System, which the firm began manufacturing in 1951.The firm's works were bombed during the Second World War and were re-established at Chessington, Surrey. The extensive research facilities there were placed at the disposal of the Royal Navy and the Admiralty Experimental Diving Unit. Davis worked with Haldane and Hill on problems of the underwater physiology of working divers. A number of inventions issued from Chessington, such as the human torpedo, midget submarine and human minesweeper. In the early 1950s the firm helped to pioneer the use of underwater television to investigate the sinking of the submarine Affray and the crashed Comet jet airliners.[br]Principal Honours and DistinctionsKnighted 1932.BibliographyDavis was the author of several manuals on diving including Deep Sea Diving and Submarine Operations and Breathing in Irrespirable Atmospheres. He also wrote Resuscitation: A Brief Personal History of Siebe, Gorman \& Co. 1819–1957.Further ReadingObituary, 1965, The Times, 31 March, p. 16.LRD -

16 по мне
I• ПО МНЕ highly coll[PrepP; Invar; sent adv (parenth)]=====⇒ from my point of view:- to me;- [in limited contexts] for all I care.♦ Осетины шумно обступили меня и требовали на водку; но штабс-капитан так грозно на них прикрикнул, что они вмиг разбежались. "Ведь этакой народ, - сказал он: - и хлеба по-русски назвать не умеет, а выучил: "офицер, дай на водку!" Уж татары, по мне, лучше: те хоть непьющие..." (Лермонтов 1). The Ossetians vociferously besieged me, demanding money for vodka; but the captain shouted at them so fiercely that they dispersed in a moment. "You see what they are like!" he grumbled. "They don't know enough Russian to ask for a piece of bread, but they've learned to beg for tips: 'Officer, give me money for vodka!' To me the Tatars are better-they're tee-totalers at least..." (1b).♦ "По мне, хоть вы все живите в пятикомнатных квартирах" (Войнович 3). "As far as I'm concerned, you can all live in five-room apartments" (3a).♦ "...По мне, его кобыла и с матерью - да будь они прокляты! - а я жеребца не дам обскакать!"(Шолохов 2). ".. His mare and its mother can go to bloody hell for all I care, but I won't let him beat the stallion!" (2a).II• ПО МНЕ <ПО ТЕБЕ и т. п.> coll[PrepP; subj-compl with быть, прийтись etc (subj: usu. abstr or, less often, human)]=====⇒ to be pleasing to me (you etc), be in accord with my (your etc) tastes, interests:- X suits me;- X is my cup of tea < my thing>;- [in limited contexts] X is right for me;- X is the one <the [NP]> for me;- [in limited contexts] X grates on me.♦ "Ну, для чего вы идёте на войну?" - спросил Пьер. - "Для чего? Я не знаю. Так надо. Кроме того, я иду... - Он остановился. - Я иду потому, что эта жизнь, которую я веду здесь, эта жизнь - не по мне!" (Толстой 4). "And why are you going to war?" asked Pierre. "Why? I don't know. Because I must. And besides, I'm going-" he paused. "I'm going because this life I am leading here - this life is - not to my taste" (4a).♦...И то ему не так, и это не по нему. Что бы она ни сделала, все было неладно (Распутин 3). Nothing was to his liking. Whatever she did displeased him (3a).♦...Он [Чичиков] обратился к другому шкафу... Всё книги философии... "Это не по мне"... (Гоголь 3)....Chichikov turned to another bookcase....They were all books on philosophy.... "That's not my cup of tea"... (3a).♦ [Ирина:] Надо поискать другую должность, а эта не по мне (Чехов 5). [I.:] I must try to find some other job, this one's not right for me (5d).♦ [Фёкла:]...Уж каких женихов тебе припасла!.. Первый, Балтазар Балтазарович Жевакин, такой славный, во флоте служил - как раз по тебе придётся (Гоголь 1). [F:]... What a bunch of gentlemen I've got for you!...First, Baltazar Baltazarovich Zhevakin, such a nice gentleman; he served in the navy-he's just the one for you (lc).♦...Проходя однажды мимо МХАТа, я увидел объявление, что этому театру требуются рабочие сцены. Ну вот, решил я, эта работа... по мне (Войнович 1). One day, walking past the Moscow Art Theater, I noticed a sign saying that stage-set workers were needed. That's the job for me, I decided (1a).♦...Вообще Пётр Петрович принадлежал к разряду людей, по-видимому чрезвычайно любезных в обществе... но которые, чуть что не по них, тотчас же и теряют все свои средства и становятся похожими скорее на мешки с мукой, чем на развязных и оживляющих общество кавалеров (Достоевский 3). Generally speaking, Pyotr Petrovich belonged to that category of people who appear extremely affable in company...but who, as soon as something grates on them, instantly lose all their resources and begin to seem more like sacks of flour than offhand and convivial cavaliers (3c). -
