The article focuses on how an initiative in Massachusetts to prioritize skill-based hiring over college degrees inadvertently led to concerns that certified rehabilitation counselors might not be able to disclose their credentials to clients, posing challenges for both counselors.

Close collaboration on the part of the engineers and architects of the new San Francisco Federal Building has created a facility that advances the goals of sustainable development by incorporating features that maximize the use of natural ventilation and natural lighting. The iconic structure is considered a model for future federal buildings.

The Frederic C. Hamilton Building — an extension of the Denver Art Museum — is the first large-scale structure designed by architect Daniel Libeskind to be constructed in the United States. The challenge for the structural engineers was how to tie together the diagonal walls of the crystalline structure both during and after construction.

A microcolony technique is described for measuring epidermal cell survival 3 days after whole-body X-irradiation. This assay provides a cell D0 value of 233 ± 11 rad and a zero-dose extrapolate of 1·23 × 104 cells/cm2 for mice irradiated in oxygen 20 hours after hair plucking. The microcolony cellularity had an apparent doubling-time of 25 hours which may be an upper limit at least for some clones. The clones appeared to fragment continually and form new daughter clones, suggesting that few would form macroscopic nodules. Many of the clones were also apparently associated with hair follicles.

The article focuses on the design and construction of the Frederic C. Hamilton Building as an addition to the Denver Art Museum in Colorado. The Hamilton Building serves as the new grand entrance into the art museum complex. A joint venture of Studio Daniel Libeskind and Davis Partnership was selected to design the building in the summer of 2000. Extremely detailed three-dimensional (3D) construction procedures were developed prior to the start of steel erection.
