Curbs are often required along roadways for functions such as drainage control, right-of-way reduction, and sidewalk separation. However, when placed near guardrail systems, curbs can adversely affect the interaction of errant vehicles with roadside barriers and increase the propensity of vehicle underride, override, and instability increases. Further, curbed roadsides with soil backfill result in increased system stiffnesses and rail loads, which may lead to rail ruptures. Additionally, the presence of drainage features often interferes with the placement of guardrail posts, requiring a post to be omitted. Therefore, the system evaluated herein consisted of the Midwest Guardrail System (MGS) in conjunction with a curb and with an omitted post. The test article consisted of an MGS installation with the rail mounted 31 in. above the roadway and the front face of the guardrail located 6 in. behind a 6-in. tall AASHTO Type B curb. A single post was omitted near the middle of the system and 37 ft - 6 in. of nested rail was incorporated around the 150-in. elongated span created by the omitted post. In test numbers MGSCO-4, a 2270P pickup truck impacted the system at a speed of 62.0 mph and at an angle of 25.1 degrees. The vehicle was successfully contained and redirected with no evidence of rail tearing. The vehicle remained stable, and all vehicle decelerations were within the allowable limits. Thus, test numbers MGSCO-4 met the safety performance criteria of MASH test designation numbers 3-11. The same system configuration was previously crash tested with the 1100C vehicle during test numbers MGSCO-2 and met the safety performance criteria of MASH tests designation numbers 3-10. Therefore, the MGS with nested W-beam rail placed 6 in. behind a 6-inches tall AASHTO Type B curb and with an omitted post has been assessed as crashworthy to MASH TL-3. Recommendations and installation guidance for the MGS with omitted post placed adjacent to curbs were provided. (Page i).

Nutrition in the Prevention and Treatment of Disease, Fourth Edition, is a compilation of current knowledge in clinical nutrition and an overview of the rationale and science base of its application to practice in the prevention and treatment of disease. In its fourth edition, this text continues the tradition of incorporating new discoveries and methods related to this important area of research Generating and analyzing data that summarize dietary intake and its association with disease are valuable tasks in treating disease and developing disease prevention strategies. Well-founded medical nutrition therapies can minimize disease development and related complications. Providing scientifically sound, creative, and effective nutrition interventions is both challenging and rewarding. - Two new chapters on metabolomics and translational research, which have come to be used in nutrition research in recent years. The new areas of study are discussed with the perspective that the application of the scientific method is by definition an evolutionary process. - A new chapter on Genetics and Diabetes which reviews the latest research on causal genetic variants and biological mechanisms responsible for the disease, and explores potential interactions with environmental factors such as diet and lifestyle. - Includes all major "omics" – the exposome, metabolomics, genomics, and the gut microbiome. - Expands the microbiota portions to reflect complexity of diet on gut microbial ecology, metabolism and health

A classic work of American literature that has not stopped changing minds and lives since it burst onto the literary scene, The Things They Carried is a ground-breaking meditation on war, memory, imagination, and the redemptive power of storytelling. The Things They Carried depicts the men of Alpha Company: Jimmy Cross, Henry Dobbins, Rat Kiley, Mitchell Sanders, Norman Bowker, Kiowa, and the character Tim O’Brien, who has survived his tour in Vietnam to become a father and writer at the age of forty-three. Taught everywhere—from high school classrooms to graduate seminars in creative writing—it has become required reading for any American and continues to challenge readers in their perceptions of fact and fiction, war and peace, courage and fear and longing. The Things They Carried won France's prestigious Prix du Meilleur Livre Etranger and the Chicago Tribune Heartland Prize; it was also a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize and the National Book Critics Circle Award.
