چکیده
So I’m in Atlanta at the end of a business trip. I’m running late, I’m exhausted, I want to get home. I’m in the bus to the airport, I can’t remember which stop is the stop for my airline, and the way the airport building is laid out, I can’t see the names of the airlines over the curb. So I have to listen for the announcement on the PA system. Which should be no problem. Except that this bus is unbelievably noisy, there’s music playing over the speakers, the driver mumbles into the mike along the way— ThankyouforchoosingHertz, itwilltakeusaboutfiveminutestoreachtheterminal, listenforyourairlineandremainseateduntilyourstopiscalled.... (And if you talk to the guy off-mike, you discover he sounds exactly the same!)

Ameliorative effects of Achillea millefolium inflorescences alcoholic extract on nicotine-induced reproductive toxicity in male rat: Apoptotic and biochemical evidences
Nicotine (NIC) adversely influences male reproductive system. Achillea millefolium (Achm) as a medicinal plant is highly regarded for its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. The present study was conducted to assess whether Achminflorescences alcoholic extract could serve as a protective agent against reproductive toxicity in NIC-exposed male rats. Adult male rats were random...
متن کاملRoyal jelly protects male mice against nicotine-induced reproductive failure
This study evaluated the possible protective effect of royal jelly (RJ) on sperm parameters and sperm malondialdehyde (MDA) concentration and in vitro fertilizing potential in nicotine (NIC) exposed male mice. Thrtiy-six male BALB/c mice were randomly divided into six groups (n = 6). Group 1 received normal saline, group 2 received 100 mg kg-1 per day RJ, groups 3 and 4 rece...
متن کاملA REVIEW ON SEQUENCING APPROACHES FOR MIXED-MODEL JUST-IN-TIME PRODUCTION SYSTEM
Research interests have been focused on the concept of penalizing jobs both for being early and for being tardy because not only of modern competitive industrial challenges of providing a variety of products at a very low cost by smoothing productions but also of its increasing and exciting computer applications. Here, sequencing approaches of the mixed- model just-in-time production systems is...

All of Ce(IV)-pIO compounds can be used as ion exchangc. The solubility of these compounds in inorga nic acids arc vcry low and they can not be formed anionic complexes and can give amorph and crystalize phases under different conditions in which the phosphate gro ups WdS substituted with sulphate groups. The crystal and amorph form of inorga nic polymers of Ce(IV)-P can be prepare from t...
متن کاملEfficient Algorithms for Just-In-Time Scheduling on a Batch Processing Machine
Just-in-time scheduling problem on a single batch processing machine is investigated in this research. Batch processing machines can process more than one job simultaneously and are widely used in semi-conductor industries. Due to the requirements of just-in-time strategy, minimization of total earliness and tardiness penalties is considered as the criterion. It is an acceptable criterion for b...
متن کاملA Hybrid Approach for Fuzzy Just-In-Time Flow Shop Scheduling with Limited Buffers and Deteriorating Jobs
This paper investigates the problem of just-in-time permutation flow shop scheduling with limited buffers and linear job deterioration in an uncertain environment. The fuzzy set theory is applied to describe this situation. A novel mixed-integer nonlinear program is presented to minimize the weighted sum of fuzzy earliness and tardiness penalties. Due to the computational complexities, the prop...
