Drive-through windows

Pharmacy design should also include a patient waiting area, a patient consultation area, and in some locations a drive-through window. The patient waiting area provides patients with space away from the sales floor to wait comfortably for their prescriptions. As prescriptions are being filled, customers have an opportunity to view health information or learn more about specific goods or services the pharmacy may offer... 

Drive-through windows are a patient convenience item seen today in many pharmacies. Patients are able to purchase prescriptions and limited OTC items without having to leave their cars. Industry measurements have shown that drive-through windows are viewed by customers as an added convenience, increasing stores sales by as much as 7 percent over stores without this convenience (Laskoski, 1992) (Fig. 23-6). 

In the event of a major pandemic involving an agent as infectious as smallpox, employing the drive-through windows of fast food restaurants might be a potential... 

Pneumatic tubes, such as those used to deliver checks at the bank drive-through window, have stimulated ideas for transporting people inside pneumatic tubes. These would replace entire road systems, be fast, and nonpolluting. 

If a truck driver is hauling clay fill into an exclusion zone, does this fall under the HAZWOPER standard At some sites, it might be a requirement that ALL persons (including truck drivers) are HAZWOPER trained. However, in all likelihood, a requirement to HAZWOPER train all truck drivers would be a difficult requirement to administer. At most sites, drivers are not HAZWOPER trained. One way to avoid this training would be to require that the drivers do not drive through contaminated areas. In addition, make sure that the drivers know that they must not leave their trucks and that they should keep their windows rolled up. 

Laver deposition. The sol is then brought into contact with a dry porous support by means of dip or spin coating discussed in Section 3.2.3. Capillary forces drive the dispersion m um through the support leaving behind a layer of concentrated sol on the suiface of the support There is only a narrow window of acceptable thickness of the layer deposited in order to prevent cracks from occurring during drying and further heat treatment steps. 

The 514-inch floppy disks are made from a polyester disk coated with iron oxide and a flexible outer covering. The disk has a large hole in the center, called the drive hole, that is used by the motor in the disk drive to spin the disk. In addition, there is also a 114-inch oval window cut into the case to allow the read/write heads access to the disk media. A small round hole cut into the disk shell next to the drive hole lines up with an even smaller hole cut into the disk media. When this smaller hole spins past the slightly larger hole in the shell, it allows a light to shine all the way through the disk system. In this way, the floppy drive can tell how fast the disk is rotating by how many times in a second that hole appears. 

Installing Windows 9x starts with creating a startup disk and preparing the drive using the FDISK and FORMAT commands. At that point, you boot to the CD (or the network) and run the SETUP. EXE program that starts the Windows 9x install routine. You then work through the interactive Setup Wizard and provide information as needed. 

NTFS gives you a number of options that are not available on FAT or FAT32 drives. A number of these are implemented through the use of the Advanced Attributes window, shown in Figure 14.1. To reach these options, simply right-click the folder or file you wish to modify and select Properties from the menu. On the main properties page of the folder or file, click the Advanced button in the lower right corner. 

Figure 11.13. A 300 x 375 mm continuous press, for the manufacture of parallel strand lumber (Churchland, 1988). Four drive drums draw the strands into the press. The throat acts as a prepress reducing the thickness of the loose mat to 35-40% of its imconsolidated thickness. Both platens and side dams apply compressive forces to the mat that is ciued by microwave energy admitted through ceramic windows in the side dams. These are transparent to microwave energy and yet sustain the full compressive forces on the edge of the product.
