ASTM is an independent, not-for-profit standards-writing organization. They promulgate standards in many diverse technical disciplines. ASTM is the forum for a majority of standards in the USA, especially those related to plastic materials and products testing. ASTM writes standards and conducts educational training seminars (specifications, test methods and guides). ASTM does not conduct testing, listing, certifying, or enforcement of its standards.

ASTM E679 is an ASTM International standard method for determination of odor thresholds. This standard was first published in 1979 as E679-79, when it replaced the static threshold "Syringe Method", ASTM D1391. In 1991, minor revisions were made and the standard was renumbered E679 -91. Most recently, in 2004, additional examples were added to the standard and the newest revision is published as E679-04. See similar questions...

Approximately 75% of ASTM’s income is derived from the sale of publications, primarily from standards. Other income is derived from annual administrative fees, and standards-related programs. ASTM does not verify that products are tested according to a standard. Many manufacturers, however, choose to indicate that a product has been tested according to an ASTM standard by providing such information on product labels or packaging. See similar questions...

Synonyms: any single item on the Diseases Database can have many 'names'. Thus you will find chronic obstructive pulmonary disease if you search for it as COAD, COPD or chronic obstructive airways disease. Equivalents: e.g. hyperbilirubinaemia and jaundice. One is a physical sign , the other a biochemical abnormality. The threshold for clinically observable jaundice is higher than the upper limit of normal for serum bilirubin. See similar questions...

The idea of wish is that you read from <STDIN> and evaluate each statement. The standard way to do this in Perl/Tk is to use the tkpsh script that comes in your Perl/Tk build directory. Another elegant way to get wish like behavior in Perl/Tk is to use rmt which you can find in perl5/Tk/demos in your Perl/Tk distribution. When you run rmt you already have Tk.pm set up for you so you can start typing things like $mmm = new MainWindow; etc. at the rmt: prompt. See similar questions...

Every lens has a focal length which is a physical property of the lens. Once the lens is made, this cannot be changed. The field of view associated with a lens will be a function of the area projected by the lens that is captured by the camera. For 35mm film photography, this area is 36mm by 24mm. Note that if you change the area captured, the field of view also changes. See similar questions...

The Access Board’s standards provide that agencies may accept EIT offered by vendors which uses designs or technologies that do not meet the applicable technical provisions in Subpart B but provide substantially equivalent or greater access to and use of a product for people with disabilities. (See 36 CFR 1194.5.) This is referred to as "equivalent facilitation." Equivalent facilitation is not an exception or variance from the requirement to provide comparable access.

The easiest way to meet a prerequisite is to take the prerequisite at LBCC. For example, a student would normally take CHEM 1A at LBCC prior to enrolling in CHEM 1B. If the student took a course at another college which was equivalent to LBCC's CHEM 1A, it can be used to meet the prerequisite requirement for CHEM 1B. See similar questions...

With-A-View is a list of NH mountains under 4000 feet that have both a good view and a trail, as compiled by the "Over the Hill Hikers" of Sandwich, NH. There are 48 NH mountains on the AMC 4000-footer list. The 52 With-A-View list adds just enough more mountains to make a nice round "100." (This list is different from the NH 100 Highest list which just measures height and therefore includes mountains witout a view, without a trail, or both.) See similar questions...
