No doubt the day will come when laminate flooring just blends in with the rest of the floor coverings displayed at the annual Surfaces show. But this was certainly not the case at this years event held Jan. 30-Feb. 1 in Las Vegas.For the third consecutive year, laminate floors made a strong showing at Surfaces, which was attended by more than 25,000 retailers, contractors and designers. A total of 33 companies displayed their laminate floor products or related wares at Surfaces 98, up from 28 laminate flooring exhibitors at last years show.Woodgrain designs continued to receive the biggest push among laminate flooring manufacturers, who ironically said they see their products competing more against vinyl flooring than hardwood flooring.The flashy and sometimes splashy displays of the laminate flooring producers belied the fact that laminate accounts for less than an estimated 2 percent of the total $13 billion-plus North American residential floor covering market. Following are some of the product highlights.

The prosecution of modern war places great demands on the military medical system. The medical personnel that constitute this system must be capable of responding to military action anywhere in the world, with little or no warning, for a sustained period of time. The lethality and casualty-producing potential of modern war adds to the demand. It is risky to take comfort in the relatively light casualties experienced by U.S. and coalition forces in the maneuver phases of Gulf Wars I and II. Consideration must also be given to the massive casualties that could occur on the Korean peninsula or with a relatively weak enemy successfully using weapons of mass destruction.Adding to the demands on the medical force is the breadth of modern military missions.1 Peacekeeping, peace enforcement, international humanitarian relief, national disaster response, and homeland defense are just some of the other missions of the military. In 2004, the U.S. military was deployed or forwardplaced in more than 120 countries and in all of the oceans of the world. Most recently, the occupation and insurgency in Iraq have added a new dimension to the delivery of medical support. Through September 30, 2004, the United States suffered 1,056 combat and noncombat deaths, with 7,532 wounded.2Against this backdrop of unprecedented operational tempo and mission variety is a rising expectation for high-quality combat casualty care and reduced battlefield mortality rates.3·4 Compounding this challenge further is the need for bettertrained medical personnel in urban environments, such as those experienced in Mogadishu or, more recently, Baghdad.5 At home station, the constant requirement for quality care and the economics of Tricare continue to challenge the military health system.4
The present study was conducted to evaluate the integrated nutrition education program developed at the University of Arizona (UA) College of Medicine (COM). The nutrition curriculum was initiated in 1993 and fully implemented in 1997. Less than 100 students were enrolled in each graduating class. Enrollment was on average 51% men, 67% white, and the mean age of the students was 24 yr. The curriculum did not comprise a single nutrition course but rather integrated nutrition content into required courses throughout the 4 yr of the undergraduate medical studies. To determine changes in total hours of nutrition content, the researchers performed an analysis in each course to identify the nutrition content before and after the development and implementation of the nutrition curriculum. Evaluation of the nutrition curriculum project entailed three primary outcomes. The first evaluation included an inventory of the nutrition topics included throughout the medical training before and after development of the integrated nutrition curriculum. The second evaluation technique measured applied skills in the area of nutrition with use of the Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE). The third evaluation method used the postgraduation questionnaire for student evaluation of the curriculum nutrition content. The graduating classes of 1994 and 1995 were exposed to a minimal amount of the integrated nutrition curriculum, primarily during their clinical practice education. These graduating students were compared with the classes of 1997 and 1998 graduates, who received the nutrition curriculum as an integrated component of both their basic science training and their clinical practice training. At the start of the integrated nutrition curriculum, there were 35 hr of required nutrition instruction during the 4 yr of medical education. From 1993 to 1997, 75 hr of required nutrition instruction existed. By 1996, 37 of the essential 40 nutrition topics recommended as essential, and 20 additional topics were included in medical student instruction. Courses with the most significant increases in nutrition content included social and behavioral sciences, biochemistry, and preparation for clinical medicine.

We consider the problem of optimizing the time for loading and unloading containers to and from a ship at a container terminal, where containers are required to be transported by trucks between the ship and their designated locations in the container yard. Generally speaking, a container terminal consists of the quayside, where containers are unloaded from and loaded onto ships, and the container storage yard, where containers are stored. External trucks are responsible for taking containers in and out of a container terminal. Internal trucks are responsible for transporting containers within the terminal, mainly between the container yard and the quayside. When a ship arrives at the terminal, containers are first unloaded from the ship onto the internal trucks by quay cranes. Next, the internal trucks transport the containers to their prespecified locations in the container yard. Upon arrival at the container block, a container is unloaded from the truck by a yard crane. After most of the containers have been unloaded from the ship, the outbound containers are transported from the storage yard to the quayside by those internal trucks and are loaded onto the ship by the quay cranes. Typically, several quay cranes can work in parallel to serve a ship, where each crane is designated to handle one section of the ship. To maximize the efficiency of this operation, it is important to have the turnaround time of the ship minimized. The speed of this loading/unloading operation is limited by the availability of the quay cranes and trucks. A quay crane can handle only one container at a time, and also a truck can normally only transport one container at a time. The yard cranes, on the other hand, have more capacity, and they usually spend their spare time shuffling the containers within a container block so as to reduce the loading/unloading time of the future tasks. Research related to the efficiency of container terminal operations has appeared in the literature. This includes the use of queuing models to study the utilization of container terminal capacity, see for example, Easa (1987), Daganzo (1990), and Gransberg and Basilotto (1998). It also includes the studies of operational issues such as berth allocation (Brown et al., 1997; Li et al., 1998; Lim, 1998), crane movements (Daganzo, 1989; Peterkofsky and Daganzo, 1990; Kim and Kim, 1999), storage allocation (De Castilho and Daganzo, 1993; Kim et al., 2000; Bish et al., 2001; Bish, 2003), and vehicle dispatching (Bostel and Dejax, 1998; Powell and Carvalho, 1998). Recently, Bish et al. (2001) considered a vehicle dispatching problem in a container terminal. In their model, containers are first unloaded from a ship by quay cranes following a prespecified sequence (known as “crane job sequence”). The unloaded containers are transported to their destinations in the container yard by a fleet of identical vehicles, each of which can carry one container at a time. Another set of containers are then transported from the yard by the same set of vehicles and are loaded onto the ship, also following a prespecified sequence. It is assumed that the travel times of vehicles satisfy the triangle inequality. The time that a quay crane needs to load/unload a container is assumed to be the same for all the jobs. The objective is to determine a vehicle schedule so as to minimize the makespan, i.e., the time it takes to complete the entire loading/unloading operation for the ship. They developed optimal and heuristic solution procedures for solving this problem. They performed worst-case analysis as well as computational analysis on their heuristic method for the single quay crane case of the problem. Their computational analysis is further extended to the multiple quay crane case. In this paper, we build on the work of Bish et al. (2001). We relax the assumption that the loading and unloading time of container is the same for all the jobs. In the presence of a single crane, we present an optimal algorithm which is efficient for small problems. For large problems, we provide a lower bound procedure as well as heuristics with favorable worst-case error bound and fast asymptotic convergence. Our analyses for the single crane case are supported by extensive computational experiments on randomly generated problems.

Section 4.3 of the CAN/CSA-B149.1-05 Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code lists your responsibilities as an installer of propane appliances. These responsibilities seem quite straightforward in that before leaving an installation you must ensure that the appliance, accessory, component or equipment you have installed complies with the Code requirements. If you activate the appliance for the first time then you must ensure that the appliance is in safe working order. As the installer, you are required to instruct the user in the safe and correct operation of the appliance and to leave with the customer the manufacturers installation and operating instructions supplied with the appliance. Before installing a replacement part of an appliance, you must ensure that the replacement part provides operational characteristics at least equivalent to those of the original part. Finally, as the installer of a piping or tubing system, you must perform pressure tests in accordance with the Code requirements and ensure that the system is gas-tight at the completion of the tests. To correctly install a propane appliance as an installer, you must have the latest edition of the CSA-B149 Codes that are applicable to the type of installation you are doing, and obtain, read and follow the manufacturers installation instructions.

Ms. Miller has a point about bullies bullying because they can, but there are four words she left out. Because they “get away with it.” The bully is taken to the school counselor and talked to, or a letter might be sent home to the parents. If the victim of a bully were to let fly a left hook to the jaw of a bully, the victim then becomes the aggressor and is suspended or expelled. As long as we punish a victim of bullying for defending him or herself, we condone bullying.

. Remember the rules about flight jackets by JOCS(AW) Gwyneth J. Schultz, USNWASHINGTON (NNS) - Brown leather flight jackets and green aviation (Nomex) jackets have limitations when it comes to where, when and how they can be worn. The rules, outlined in NAVADMINs 164/97 and 193/97, define those limitations for those authorized to wear flight clothing.Flight clothing is organizational clothing approved for wear by aircrew members and individuals engaged in flight- related duties during the work day. This authorization does not include ground support, non-aircrew maintenance or non- aircrew support personnel.The brown leather flight jacket is authorized for wear to and from work with working uniforms. The green flight jackets may be worn with flight suits but are not authorized for wear off base. The green jackets may also be worn with working khaki, dungarees and other working uniforms in the immediate work area if issued by the command. They are not authorized with any service uniform with ribbons.The brown leather jacket may be worn by naval aviators, pilots, flight officers, undergraduate pilots, NFOs, flight surgeons and eligible enlisted aircrewmen (E7-9) with flight suits, service khaki, working khaki, winter blue, winter working blue and aviation working green.

A recent survey conducted by the American Pet Products Manufacturers Association (APPMA) confirmed what dog owners already know: They spend a lot of money on their dogs. According to the APPMA, dog owners spend an average of $1,571 per dog, per year. The APPMA survey doesnt break down the dollar amount by category, so its impossible to tell what hunters spend on their sporting dogs. However, we know from a survey by Pheasants Forever that a lot of hunters own and train dogs. Of the 108,000 members of Pheasants Forever, 64 percent own dogs, 30 percent own two or more dogs, 84 percent personally train their dogs, 82 percent use their dogs for hunting and 49 percent own electronic training collars. Translation: Many of your customers are spending a lot of money on dog products. Where are they spending their money? There are, of course, large pet stores, catalog retailers, plus the big box outlets. Even Internet-based companies are selling a lot of dog training products to hunting dog owners. Just look at some of the Internet sites selling dog products.

The doctrine of educational malpractice is, not surprisingly, an American construct. Generally speaking, US tort law is a number of years ahead of the curve, particularly when compared with Canada. Some Canadian court decisions, however, have opened up the possibility that a plaintiff could be successful, given the right set of facts, in claiming educational malpractice. That possibility, along with the knowledge that claims for educational malpractice have been successful in the United Kingdom, means that the issue of educational malpractice warrants careful consideration. What is educational malpractice? Educational malpractice is a legal claim based in the tort of negligence, specifically professional negligence. The British Columbia Court of Appeal in a case called L.R. v. British Columbia notes that educational malpractice has been defined as “the failure to impart knowledge or teach practical skills”. Claims of educational malpractice may be directed against individual teachers as well as the school boards or post-secondary institutions that employ them. They all arise, however, from the claim that educators negligently failed to impart their knowledge to those in their classes. To date, claims for educational malpractice have met with little if any real degree of success in Canada. In the past, plaintiffs have claimed educational malpractice for a variety of alleged wrongs including failure to teach 30% of a Social Studies class and failure to provide “proper education and corrective instruction.” Traditionally, courts have dismissed these claims on the basis that the tort of educational malpractice is not a recognized cause of action in Canada. In the United States, claims of educational malpractice have had mixed success. One of the leading US cases that deals with educational malpractice is a well-known 1976 decision of the Court of Appeal of California called Peter W. v. San Francisco Unified School District. This case is important in the Canadian context as it aptly describes some of the policy reasons underlying the reluctance of Canadian courts to entertain claims of educational malpractice.

Wood of the Month makes a slight detour from the forest this month to spotlight bamboo. While wood-like with a woody stem, in reality bamboo is a giant of the grass family. INBAR, the International Network for Bamboo and Rattan, says there are roughly 1,500 documented traditional uses for bamboo, ranging from foodstuffs and landscape elements to furniture, flooring and paneling. Bamboo is one of the fastest growing plants in the world. Albert Constantine Jr. writes in his book, Know Your Woods, that bamboo species in Ceylon were observed to grow 16 inches in a day. Other reference books document growth of as much as 36 inches in 24 hours. While not all bamboo plants grow that quickly, most reach their rill height within a few months. There are more than 1,000 species of bamboo worldwide. Maxfield Hunter, president of Western Dovetail Inc., says one commonly used species, moso bamboo (Phyllostachys pubesecens), “Can grow to a height of 40 feet or more with a diameter at the base exceeding 6 inches in a space of three to five years.” Bamboo is considered a green product. Hunter said most major bamboo mills claim that their bamboo comes from managed forests and does not pose a threat to the endangered Panda bears living in the wild. Supplies typically come from bamboo forests under the control of the Chinese Department of Forestry in Hunan, Jiangxi and Fujian provinces.

To prevent the potential importation of Japanese beetles, 100,000 square feet of sod grass bound for the Real Salt Lake soccer stadium will be inspected by state officials before it is escorted to the field. The sod is being shipped from Fort Morgan, Colo., where the closest-known infestation of Japanese beetles is 50 miles away near the Denver airport. The Utah Department of Agriculture and Food said this is a precautionary measure to ensure that no more beetles enter the state. Orem is in the midst of an infestation, and the UDAF doesnt want the beetles presence in Utah to spread.

Some animals eat things youd never want to try. Earthworms munch dead leaves, chickens swallow rocks, and dung beetles eat dung-also known as poop! Because plants are hard to digest, dung from a cow or other plant-eating animal contains plenty of undigested bits a dung beetle can eat. Many dung beetles roll the poop into a big, round ball and bury it before another dung beetle can steal it.

Feb 18, 2008 American Safari Cruises new 145-foot Safari Explorer is currently undergoing a multi-million dollar renovation in Seattle. American Safaris inaugural Hawaii cruise season is December 19, 2008, to May 9, 2009; the Safari Explorer will return in November 2009 to begin its second season. Feb 15, 2008 American Safari Cruises Launches New Hawaii Inter-Island Itinerary. American Safari Cruises is bucking the current trend to suspend inter-island cruising in Hawaii, and instead bringing its own brand of luxury yacht cruising to the islands beginning December 2008. American Safari made the decision to launch the cruises after extensive research determined that high-end cruise clientele seek what the Hawaiian islands offer in terms of destination, luxury setting and experience. All American Safari vessels are American-flagged and sail with 36 guests. Cruises will focus on traditional Hawaiian culture and offer opportunities for guests to get to know local residents by visiting their land and their homes. The small guest contingent will have little impact on the islands, and the all-American crew will include Hawaii residents, including captains and naturalists who have personal knowledge of the area.

CHICAGO–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Feb. 9, 1999–You dont need a survey research background or a big consulting budget to get effective, reliable answers. Hard to believe? Surveys with Confidence, new from SPSS Inc. (Nasdaq: SPSS), will convince you its true. The product is a cost-effective, three-part survey research software suite that walks users through the survey process from designing the survey to reporting findings. Surveys with Confidence is now shipping worldwide. Surveys with Confidence features a computer-based training application called Survey Coach, which guides users step–by-step through the survey creation, collection and analysis processes. The Survey Coach is made up of five modules that address different parts of the survey process, including planning the survey, creating the questionnaire, collecting and entering data, generating reports and preparing a schedule and budget. Survey Coach incorporates animation, sound and video for a lively training approach. Surveys with Confidence also includes Survey Builder for creating professional surveys and Survey Analyst for analyzing the collected survey data and presenting findings. Survey Builder is an application for survey design and data entry. It features a library filled with questions designed by experts in survey research that users can copy and paste into the survey along with their own questions. During the layout of the survey, Survey Builder automatically prepares the onscreen data entry form and the data definitions for analysis. For example, when a user enters a possible response into the form, such as “very satisfied,” Survey Builder incorporates that response option as a label on both data entry screens and in reports or graphs created from the survey. Survey Analyst is the final piece of the Surveys with Confidence suite. Survey Analyst helps users analyze their data for useful, actionable information and enables them to present their findings. Users choose from a variety of analytical tools including more than 50 statistical methods. Additionally, interactive graphics provide users with the ability to explore their data visually and present it professionally. Surveyors can distribute electronic reports created in Survey Analyst to colleagues who have a copy of the optional SmartViewer software, and for Web-based reporting, organizations can use the optional SmartViewer Web Server. SmartViewer Web Server enables people to distribute dynamic reports throughout their organizations via the Web. Information consumers point their Web browser to the report where they view, slice, dice and drill down into report cubes to answer their own questions. “Surveys with Confidence is the most complete survey software on the market,” SPSS product manager Thaddeus Hunt said. “No other survey package has a computer-based training application like the Survey Coach to guide people through the survey process. Its also extremely cost-effective for organizations or departments who need the answers that surveys provide, but cant afford to hire a research firm. Surveys with Confidence provides reliable results and doesnt require a survey research background.”
