description: Energy costs are a major concern for supermarket operators, since they typically represent the third largest operating expense after the cost-of-goods sold and labor. Supermarkets may also be some of the largest customers of electricity in an area and have a high "base load" (stable) demand. In September 2001, a supplemental energy management survey was sent to stores participating in the 2001 Supermarket Panel to gain insights into how grocery retailers are addressing the energy challenge. There are significant differences in energy management and energy costs across stores grouped by ownership group size, store format and region. Larger stores and those with higher sales per square foot are typically more advanced in energy management. In particular, the results identify the characteristics of stores that are most receptive to energy management and cost conservation initiatives.

description: This paper presents a model-based approach for competitive analysis of manufacturing plants in the U. S. food processing industry. As part of this approach, plant competitiveness is measured using Operational Competitiveness Ratings Analysis (OCRA) -- a new non-parametric method of computing relative inefficiency. Drivers of competitiveness are identified in terms of policies related to plant structure and infrastructure. Policies related to plant structure are those decisions that are related with "bricks and mortar" and have long term implications, such as decisions related to plant size and capacity. Policies related to plant infrastructure are decisions related to how the " bricks and mortar" are used. These policies are typically under the direct control of the operations managers and have a short-term orientation, such as decisions related to equipment, quality, inventory, workforce and confusion-engendering activities (e.g. new product introductions and product variety). The empirical analysis is based on detailed cross-sectional data on 20 processed food manufacturing plants. With respect to plant structure, the results suggest that small sized food processing plants are competitive, and both capacity underutilization and overutilization are detrimental to plant competitiveness. Among the significant results with respect to plant infrastructure, equipment maintenance, quality management programs, packaging supplies inventory, workforce training and product variety are positively associated with plant competitiveness. The results also suggest that introduction of new products disrupts plant operations, at least in the short run, and is negatively associated with plant competitiveness.

description: We study a recent proposed Ricci-inverse gravity, which is a very novel type of fourth-order gravity. In particular, we are able to figure out both isotropically and anisotropically inflating universes to this model. More interestingly, these solutions are free from a singularity problem. However, stability analysis based on the dynamical system method shows that both isotropic and anisotropic inflation of this model turn out to be unstable against field perturbations. This result implies a no-go theorem for both isotropic and anisotropic inflation in the Ricci-inverse gravity.

description: What is the role of touch in consumer behavior? Consumers are especially motivated to touch some products before buying them, and for some people, those high in "desire to touch", touching before buying is especially important. In addition, some situations encourage consumers to touch goods before purchasing them. How do these relate to impulse purchases? People high in their "desire to touch" are more likely to make impulse purchases. Point-of-purchase signs that encourage touching a product stimulate impulse purchases in consumers who notice the sign, whether they are high or low in "desire to touch." High "desire to touch" are much more likely than other consumers to notice the sign. Signs that praise a product, but stress vision rather than touch, do nothing to increase impulse purchases by either type of shopper. These results grow out of a study of shopper in front of the peaches and nectarines in a supermarket produce department. The characterization of consumers as high or low "desire to touch" was based on a 2 page questionnaire administered to 340 shoppers who had already placed peaches or nectarines in their shopping carts. How and how much they touched the fruit was previously recorded, and matched up with the characterization based on the questionnaire as a way of validating the classifications.

description: In this study, the topoclimates of continental Chile are mapped. The mapping involves the identification of homogeneous zones based on the relationships between the climatic variables that characterize a location and the topography that influences the spatial behavior of these variables. The climatic and topographical zoning of the study area is conducted using a statistical methodology based on a combination of principal component analysis and cluster analysis. The climate, topography, and topoclimatic zoning yield 20, 8, and 96 clusters, respectively. Maximum topoclimatic variability is identified in sectors with mountain ranges and intermediate depression (especially in valley areas), and minimum variability is detected in the coastal sector. Furthermore, only one of the topoclimatic units has an area larger than 50,000 km2, whereas 46.8% of the units have surface areas below 2,000 km2.

description: We present new radial velocity results for 176 stars in the Fornax dwarf spheroidal galaxy, of which at least 156 are probable Fornax members. We combine with previously published data to obtain a radial velocity sample with 206 stars, of which at least 176 are probable Fornax members. We detect the hint of rotation about an axis near Fornax's morphological minor axis, though the significance of the rotation signal in the galactic rest frame is sensitive to the adopted value of Fornax's proper motion. Regardless, the observed stellar kinematics are dominated by random motions, and we do not find kinematic evidence of tidal disruption. The projected velocity dispersion profile of the binned dataset remains flat over the sampled region, which reaches a maximum angular radius of 65 arcmin. Single-component King models in which mass follows light fail to reproduce the observed flatness of the velocity dispersion profile. Two-component (luminous plus dark matter) models can reproduce the data, provided the dark component extends sufficiently beyond the luminous component, and the central dark matter density is of the same order as the central luminous density. These requirements suggest a more massive, darker Fornax than standard core-fitting analyses have previously concluded, with M/L_V over the sampled region reaching 10 to 40 times the M/L_V of the luminous component. We also apply a non-parametric mass estimation technique, introduced in a companion paper. Though it is designed to operate on datasets containing velocities for $>$1000 stars, the estimation yields preliminary results suggesting M/L_V ~ 15 inside r < 1.5 kpc.

description: Consumers make choices about where to shop based on their preferences for a shopping environment and experience as well as the selection of products at a particular store. This study illustrates how retail firms and marketing analysts can utilize data mining techniques to better understand customer profiles and behavior. Among the key areas where data mining can produce new knowledge is the segmentation of customer data bases according to demographics, buying patterns, geographics, attitudes, and other variables. This paper builds profiles of grocery shoppers based on their preferences for 33 retail grocery store characteristics. The data are from a representative, nationwide sample of 900 supermarket shoppers collected in 1999. Six customer profiles are found to exist, including (1) "Time Pressed Meat Eaters", (2) "Back to Nature Shoppers", (3) "Discriminating Leisure Shoppers", (4) "No Nonsense Shoppers", (5) "The One Stop Socialites", and (6) "Middle of the Road Shoppers". Each of the customer profiles is described with respect to the underlying demographics and income. Consumer shopping segments cut across most demographic groups but are somewhat correlated with income. Hierarchical lists of preferences reveal that low price is not among the top five most important store characteristics. Experience and preferences for internet shopping shows that of the 44% who have access to the internet, only 3% had used it to order food.

Play in modified learning centres on the development and transfer of phonemic awareness to kindergarten spelling
Creators: name: Regush, Nicole
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: As many as thirty percent of students graduating from high school today have poorly developed literacy skills. As recently as ten years ago, kindergarten teachers were discounting phonemic awareness as insignificant to the development of early literacy when research accredits phonemic facility as pivotal i n the process. This study was designed to modify and assess the use of learning centers as a teaching strategy to develop phonemic awareness and conventional spelling in kindergarten children. Sixteen kindergarten children served as the intervention class and fourteen children served as the control group (chronological age between 71.68 and 73.18 months, nonsignificant differences in ages). Over seven weeks, children in the intervention class interacted in three literacy-dependent learning centers. Children in the control group were not exposed to the learning centers. Based on previous research, it was hypothesized that intervention would result in an increase in phonemic skills and would transfer to, and enhance, conventional spelling. Results revealed a significant effect on phonemic awareness skills, specifically blending, sound isolation and segmenting. No significant effect was noted in spelling performance, although the intervention group manifested the greatest increases in literacy-related play and use of phonemic awareness during free play. Comparison of high-literacy and lowliteracy children suggests that the low-literacy intervention group children experienced the greatest gains (although not always significant) in phonemic skills, spelling, selection of literacy activities and use of phonemic skills during literacy activities. Further investigations would require a modification of the teaching strategy to explicitly demonstrate the transfer and application of phonemic awareness to the context of conventional spelling, a longer period of observation, and a more detailed analysis of the graphophonemic skills of the participants.

description: The A.C. Nielson household scanner panel is used to analyze factors affecting brand-size choices for spaghetti. These data link product purchases, which are scanned, with household demographics and market information on the store where purchased. A multinominal logit model and a nested logit model are specified and estimated. In addition to the effects of inventory and brand loyalty, the most interesting results relate to the price elasticities of choice probabilities. These elasticities are much more elastic than those found in traditional food demand analysis. Different brands and sizes of spaghetti products on the same supermarket shelf are very close substitutes for the consumer.

description: We investigate the creation of squeezing via operations subject to noise and losses and ask for the optimal use of such devices when supplemented by noiseless passive operations. Both single and repeated uses of the device are optimized analytically and it is proven that in the latter case the squeezing converges exponentially fast to its asymptotic optimum, which we determine explicitly. For the case of multiple iterations we show that the optimum can be achieved with fixed intermediate passive operations. Finally, we relate the results to the generation of entanglement and derive the maximal two-mode entanglement achievable within the considered scenario.

description: The "Perishable Refrigerated Products and Home Practices Survey" was a two-part survey developed to better understand consumers' perceptions and their current level of understanding regarding the proper handling and storage of perishable refrigerated foods. Past studies (e.g. Anonymous, 1997a; Anonymous, 1999a) have demonstrated a lack of consumer knowledge in such areas involving food safety practices. In recent years, there have been a number of large food recalls (i.e. Anonymous, 1997b; Anonymous, 1999b; CDC, 1999) due to the presence or possible presence of foodborne pathogens. Part of this study analyzed consumers' knowledge and attitudes towards the recalled products. A large number of foodborne outbreaks also occur in the household. After examining participant responses concerning food handling practices, (i.e. improper temperature control and lack of food rotation habits), the practices of many of the participants were not suitable to prevent possible foodborne contamination. Open dates and time-temperature integrators (TTI's), especially when used together, can assist consumers in purchasing fresh foods (Taoukis and Labuza, 1989a, b). However, numerous past studies have indicated consumer confusion regarding the meaning of open dates; and the results of this study confirm that the confusion continues. This may be due in part to the fact that there is no federally mandated, uniform open dating legislation in this country. TTI's are a fairly new device on the U.S. marketplace. While participants in this study were optimistic about the potential benefits of TTI's, 76% of consumers were unfamiliar with the device.

description: The Food Stamp Program (FSP) is working under the deadline of October 1, 2002, to coordinate a change from the current paper disbursement system of paper food stamps to an electronic transfer system of benefits, known as EBT. The Food and Nutrition Service of the U.S. Department of Agriculture has been studying the effectiveness of differing vehicles for benefit dispersal since the inception of the FSP in the 1960's. The merits of a direct cash payment have been compared to those of the paper system by the USDA and an array of professional groups and research organizations. The adoption of the electronic benefit transfer (EBT) system engenders a new set of questions about the effects of EBT on benefit recipients, retailers and the administering government agencies. Issues surrounding the transition from paper to plastic are still problematic for retailers in spite of the rapidly approaching deadline. National interoperability of EBT as well as fees involved with EBT operation are still points of contention for retailers. Anecdotal evidence from retailers also point to kinks in the institutional operation of EBT. Peak-loading problems with the electronic network system generate a host of undesirable consequences for benefit recipients and retailers. These problems impede the electronic system from taking advantage of the positive network effects that could arise from this new technology.

description: We study the long term evolution of magnetic fields generated by an initially unmagnetized collisionless relativistic $e^+e^-$ shock. Our 2D particle-in-cell numerical simulations show that downstream of such a Weibel-mediated shock, particle distributions are approximately isotropic, relativistic Maxwellians, and the magnetic turbulence is highly intermittent spatially, nonpropagating, and decaying. Using linear kinetic theory, we find a simple analytic form for these damping rates. Our theory predicts that overall magnetic energy decays like $(ω_p t)^{-q}$ with $q \sim 1$, which compares favorably with simulations, but predicts overly rapid damping of short wavelength modes. Magnetic trapping of particles within the magnetic structures may be the origin of this discrepancy. We conclude that initially unmagnetized relativistic shocks in electron-positron plasmas are unable to form persistent downstream magnetic fields. These results put interesting constraints on synchrotron models for the prompt and afterglow emission from GRBs.

description: Complications have hampered the adoption of Universal Product Codes (UPCs) for fresh produce until recently. The data being collected using Bar Codes and Price Look-Up Codes (PLUs) have many applications. A case study of carrots demonstrates how analyses of scanning data can show the effects of new items on established products and the customer's willingness to pay for the new products. For precut and organic carrots in a Knoxville area supermarket chain, total carrot volume increased as the new products were introduced while regular (bunch) sales declined sharply. Consumers were willing to pay a premium for the convenience of precut products.

description: Seit 2017 untersuchen Forschende des interdisziplinären Sonderforschungsbereichs (SFB) 1280 die Mechanismen des Extinktionslernens. Um ein nachhaltiges Forschungsdatenmanagement (FDM) zu gewährleisten, hat der SFB ein FDM-Gremium eingerichtet, das alle Karrierestufen repräsentiert, eine FDM-Leitlinie entwickelt und sich auf gemeinsame Standards für Ordnerstruktur, Metadaten und - für menschliche Proband:innen - Pseudonymisierung geeinigt. Die zeit- und zweckgebundene Pseudonymisierung schützt die Privatsphäre der Proband:innen gemäß den ethischen und rechtlichen Vorschriften und ermöglicht gleichzeitig innovative gruppenübergreifende Datenanalysen. In der ersten Förderphase wurde der 8-stelliger Pseudonymisierungscode der Ethikkommission der DGPs verwendet. Bei anschließenden Analysen zeigten sich Doppelungen und Umsetzungsprobleme, was zur Einführung eines 11-stelligen Codes durch den SFB führte, der die ursprünglichen Gestaltungsprinzipien beibehält und gleichzeitig die Doppelungen erheblich reduziert. Die Ethikkommission der DGPs übernahm diesen als Variante 2. Um die Benutzerfreundlichkeit und die Umsetzung zu verbessern, wurde ein webbasierter, open-source Versuchspersonencode-Generator in deutscher und englischer Sprache entwickelt, der die Papier-Version ergänzt. Im SFB werden die zugehörigen experimentellen Forschungsdaten mit Metadaten in einem neu entwickelten Open-Source-Repository (Samvera, Hyrax) gespeichert, das den gesamten Lebenszyklus von Forschungsdaten unterstützt. Es ermöglicht den Forschenden Daten zu speichern, gemeinsam zu nutzen, zu finden, zu archivieren und zu veröffentlichen und unterstützt ein detailliertes Rechte- und Rollenmanagement. Im Einklang mit der FDM-Leitlinie und der SFB-Organisationsstruktur wurde ein dreistufiges Rollen- und Rechtesystem entwickelt. Die Veröffentlichung und Archivierung von Daten erfolgen in einem dreistufigen Workflow, um die Einhaltung ethischer und rechtlicher Standards zu gewährleisten. Die skizzierten Ansätze, die das Engagement des SFB für Datenqualität und Datenschutz verdeutlichen, lassen sich problemlos auf andere Forschungskooperationen übertragen.

description: By 2010, foodservice establishments are projected to capture 53 percent of consumers' food expenditures, whereas in 1980, foodservice captured less than 40 percent. The foodservice industry accounts for approximately 4 percent of the Gross Domestic Product and about 11 million jobs. It has been rapidly changing due to economic factors, technological advances, and labor matters.1 This overview covers many of the issues and trends affecting the different segments of the foodservice supply chain including the foodservice operators, distributors and food manufacturers. Changing customer demographics are a driving force in the evolution of the foodservice industry. As the baby boomers reach middle age, they do not seem to have time to cook and their children and grandchildren do not seem to have the interest, or talent. The U.S. population in 2000 had over double ($6,500) the per capita discretionary income that it had in 1975 ($3,109) 2 and, with a high value for recreation and pleasure they are pulled out of the kitchen and into the restaurants. An ever-shrinking world also brings variety to menus as cultures and cuisines converge, introducing new flavors and textures. A tight labor market has affected the foodservice industry from top to bottom leading to a derived demand for convenience products from manufacturers. At all links in the chain, companies are experiencing mergers and acquisitions. Operators, manufacturers, and distributors are all fighting for a share of the profits as competition continues to intensify. This review of the foodservice industry incorporates interviews with industry professionals, current information from leading foodservice associations, and predictions from the top industry research firms and consultants.

description: The near-threshold n p -> d pi0 cross section is calculated in chiral perturbation theory to next-to-leading order in the expansion parameter sqrt{M m_pi}/Lambda_chi. At this order irreducible pion loops contribute to the relevant pion-production operator. While their contribution to this operator is finite, considering initial-and final-state distortions produces a linear divergence in its matrix elements. We renormalize this divergence by introducing a counterterm, whose value we choose in order to reproduce the threshold n p -> d pi0 cross section measured at TRIUMF. The energy-dependence of this cross section is then predicted in chiral perturbation theory, being determined by the production of p-wave pions, and also by energy dependence in the amplitude for the production of s-wave pions. With an appropriate choice of the counterterm, the chiral prediction for this energy dependence converges well.

description: This study provides an empirical investigation of how consumers rate meat attributes. Results show an importance order for 12 selected meat attributes and reveal some relationships between the importance ratings and consumer's demographic or socioeconomic characteristics. The findings suggest that (1) the meat marketing strategy should focus on freshness, taste, and appearance; (2) nutritional attributes have become important factors in the meat purchasing decision of female, educated, and married consumers; (3) older, married, low-income, or non-white consumers still remain price conscious; and (4) USDA label has become an important symbol of meat quality and safety to older, female, Baptist, and high-income consumers.

description: This study demonstrates how contingent valuation techniques can be used in a cost-benefit analysis of a food safety policy issue. The analysis focuses on banning a specific post harvest pesticide used in fresh grapefruit packinghouses. Benefits of the ban are measured using consumers' aggregated willingness to pay (WTP) for safer grapefruit. A national contingent valuation survey used the payment card method to obtain WTP data. Costs of the ban stem predominantly from increased post harvest losses and were estimated using a model of the market for Florida grapefruit. Results indicate that benefits of the ban outweigh costs.

description: We study the spin filling of a semiconductor quantum dot using excited-state spectroscopy in a strong magnetic field. The field is oriented in the plane of the two-dimensional electron gas in which the dot is electrostatically defined. By combining the observation of Zeeman splitting with our knowledge of the absolute number of electrons, we are able to determine the ground state spin configuration for one to five electrons occupying the dot. For four electrons, we find a ground state spin configuration with total spin S=1, in agreement with Hund's first rule. The electron g-factor is observed to be independent of magnetic field and electron number.

The Born and Lens-Lens Corrections to Weak Gravitational Lensing Angular Power Spectra
Creators: name: Shapiro, Charles
name: Cooray, Asantha
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2006
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We revisit the estimation of higher order corrections to the angular power spectra of weak gravitational lensing. Extending a previous calculation of Cooray and Hu, we find two additional terms to the fourth order in potential perturbations of large-scale structure corresponding to corrections associated with the Born approximation and the neglect of line-of-sight coupling of two foreground lenses in the standard first order result. These terms alter the convergence ($κκ$), the lensing shear E-mode ($εε$), and their cross-correlation ($κε$) power spectra on large angular scales, but leave the power spectra of the lensing shear B-mode ($ββ$) and rotational ($ωω$) component unchanged as compared to previous estimates. The new terms complete the calculation of corrections to weak lensing angular power spectra associated with both the Born approximation and the lens-lens coupling to an order in which the contributions are most significant. Taking these features together, we find that these corrections are unimportant for any weak lensing survey, including for a full sky survey limited by cosmic variance.

A path of learning : Indo-Tibetan Buddhism as education
Creators: name: MacPherson, Sonia
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: This study chronicles a non-modern pedagogical tradition, Indo-Tibetan (Gelugpa) Buddhist education, as it negotiates a modern, global context in exile in India. As an enlightenment tradition, Buddhism emphasizes investigative inquiry over scriptural orthodoxy and belief, making it compatible with some aspects of modern, secular culture. This is a study of the relationship between these two educational cultures within one educational institution—Dolma Ling Nunnery and Institute of Dialectics in the Indian Himalayas. The text itself is arranged in the form of a mandala, which is divided into five sections or stages of learning: intention, path, inference, experience, and realization. The intention section highlights the value of cultural and educational diversity, and includes a brief synopsis of Indo-Tibetan Buddhist educational history. The path section describes specific Buddhist approaches to ethnography and social research. The inference chapter is the empirical (ethnographic) component of the study, and considers the practice of dialectical debate as a case of what Wittgenstein called a "language game." This chapter includes photographic documentation and the text of a public (Western-style) debate held at Dolma Ling on the subject of the merits of their traditional debate system. The experience chapter considers the unique role of direct perception (experience) in Buddhism, and how it can be educated through combined meditational and testimonial practices. The author explores the tendency to segregate experiential from rational paths, especially when liminal experiences of suffering, bliss, and death are involved. She concludes that such experiences strain our powers of reason and, in some cases, representation, resulting in a tendency to marginalize such experiences within formal, rational education systems and their knowledge bases. Narrative, poetic, and direct experiential methods of meditation are better suited to deal with these subjects. The "realization" chapter discusses conceptions of realization, praxis and embodiment, that is, rational inferences translated into direct experience and action, as of particular relevance to educators. In the Buddhist view, such realizations are the desired end of all inquiry. This end is accomplished through creative and direct "conversations" (testimonies, dialogues) between reason and direct experience on the path of learning.
