We use administrative data from the unemployment insurance system of the Sate of Washington to study the magnitude of the wage differential associated with work in the temporary services industry. We find that temp wage rates are 15% to 20% below the levels that might have been expected based on trends during other periods in workers’ careers even after controlling for differences between temps...

OBJECTIVE This study compared the marginal gap, internal fit, fracture strength, and mode of fracture of CAD/CAM provisional crowns with that of direct provisional crowns. MATERIAL AND METHODS An upper right first premolar phantom tooth was prepared for full ceramic crown following tooth preparation guidelines. The materials tested were: VITA CAD-Temp®, Polyetheretherketone "PEEK", Telio CAD-...

Ditylenchus dipsaci showed an affinity, in relation to infection, for the temp at which it had been acclimated. The optimum infective temp was also correlated with field temp when collections were made during different seasons and from climatically different geographical areas. Nematode developmental stage did not influence infectivity.

Temp erature dependence s of the linear dimension L ( T ) and spontaneous polari zati on P s( T ) for tri glycine sulphate and glycine posphite single crystals have been measured in the same run of temp erature. A decrease in the spontaneous electrostriction coe£cient Q L of both crystals studied is displayed w hen approaching the corresp ondi ng phase transition point T c . A temp erature dep ...

Th e at om i c force micro scopy in ultrahi gh vacuum and at low temp erature demonstrated its excellent capabil i ty to reach atomic resolution . N evertheless in the case of biologi cal samples high resolution has been achieved only in very few cases. W e demonstrated here the imp ortance of the appropriate choice of prob es and substrates in order to image DN A at low temp erature w ith high...

This research evaluated the influence of temporary cements (eugenol-containing [EC] or eugenol-free [EF]) on the tensile strength of Ni-Cr copings fixed with self-adhesive resin cement to the metal coronal substrate. Thirty-six temporary crowns were divided into 4 groups (n=9) according to the temporary cements: Provy, Dentsply (eugenol-containing), Temp Cem, Vigodent (eugenol-containing), Rely...
