Answer: The Continuous NHANES files are in SAS transport file format (.xpt). They can be used with any package that supports this file format. For statistical/analytical packages that do not support SAS transport file format, you need to convert the file to a different format using an appropriate software package. See similar questions...

I have an obsolete 34 ton Carrier, rooftop, multi-zone, direct expansion unit that I virtually can't get replacement parts for. I need a comparable change out, preferably not a Carrier. Can someone recommend a good substitute, brand, and model number? Also, I have the same scenario with a 20 ton Carrier. We recently bought another home and moved. This home has two dual fuel heat pumps that are zoned. Can you explain exactly how dual fuel heat pumps work. See similar questions...

Output power for a Lucent/Orinoco/Agere/Avaya 802.11b PC card is 15 dBm. If there is no external antenna then that's the answer. 15dbm. PC card - pigtail adapter - connector - 50 ft LMR400 - connector + 14 dBi antenna = ? Total output power Substitute the six items above with their 'db-counterparts' with + for things that add power and - for losses See similar questions...

The total $1.5 million that needs to be collected was split into 75% academic libraries and 25% public libraries based on database usage. The formula for the fee is a weighted combination of 30% undergraduate FTE's and 70% information resources expenditures for academic libraries (adding up to $1,125,000), and 30% population served and 70% collection expenditures for public libraries (adding up to $375,000).

This simple formula provides an estimate of the power that would be produced by a wind turbine installed at the selected location. It is based on the mean wind speed taken from the wind atlas and on the wind turbine parameters entered by the user. Max power output: or rated power of the turbine, the constant power output maintained above the rated wind speed. See similar questions...

The formula combines two indices -- the GEF Benefits Index and the GEF Performance Index -- to determine the share of resources that each country is allocated. A country's share increases with higher values of each index. The GEF Benefits Index measures the potential of a country to generate global environmental benefits while the GEF Performance Index measures a country's capacity, policies and practices relevant to successful implementation of GEF programs and projects.

If a central plant puts out 20,358,350 BTU's per year, how many tons of air conditioning is it? I believe it is 1,696 tons. However, our landlord is arguing that the total production of chilled water is equal to 1,969,699 tons per year divided by 365 days/year =4,687 tons per day, divided by 14 hrs per day =290 ton/hours. Please advise who is correct and why. Thank you so much for your help in this matter. See similar questions...

Yes. The Baby-Friendly Hospital Initiative supports the World Health Organization Code on the Marketing of Breast-milk Substitutes ("WHO Code").
