Sales & Marketing, North America BioZone Scientific International, Inc. 7380 Sand Lake Road, Suite 405 Orlando, FL 32819 Dear Mr. Halversen: As a group ofundergraduate marketing students from the Marriott School ofManagement at Brigham Young University (BYU Team), we look forward to working with you toward the completion ofthe AirCare air purifier study for BioZone Scientific. The purpose ofthis letter is to confum our understanding ofthe project scope, approach, schedule, deliverables, and fees. Background BioZone Scientific International, a subsidiary ofFinland based conglomerate lnfasta Group, was established in May of 1996 to focus exclusively on developing UV-light based technologies for air related applications. One such product line is the AirCare air purifier, which has received substantial recognition through BioZone's sister company in various European markets. The AirCare unit is designed to solve problems commonly associated with the use ofchemicals by current hygiene services. As chemical deodorizers are used to cover bad odors, they cause increased contaminant levels ofunhealthy chemicals, which might cause allergic reactions to people. Also, the frequent maintenance ofchemical based devices cause high costs. The BioZone AirCare air purifier removes odors and destroys micro-organisms resulting in a more pleasant, clean, and safe environment. BioZone technology is based on the circulation ofair into the device's purification chamber, where it is exposed to UV·light. The light produces a photoplasma which works similar to nature, utilizing negative ions, hydroxyl radicals, and ozone in killing bacteria, viruses, odors, and mold. BioZone Scientific's business strategy is to determine the viability ofa successful launch ofthe AirCare unit in the U.S. market. Revenue generation will initially come from the sale ofAirCare units to service and maintenance providers. BioZone Scientifics' major task is to complete a feasibility study ofwhether the u.S. market is ready to embrace ozone technology and determine whether the benefits are large enough to justify the cost ofbringing the product to the United States. Engagement Scope and Objectives The BYU Team will complete a study to determine the general perception ofthe public restrooms in fast food chains, gas stations, public schools, and sit-down restaurants. The general perception will be determined by analyzing responses ofthe Brigham Young University student body. The study will conclude with a recommendation to proceed or not to proceed with the UV·light based AirCare unit into the U.S. market based on the focus group and surveys. Approach, Tasks, and Schedule Our suggested approach and time frame consists ofthe following four phases: Phase 1: Information Co/fection and Discovery (October 23 through November 1) The initial information collection will consist ofmembers of the research group conducting a focus group to determine the importance ofcleanliness in public restrooms. The focus group will consist of volunteers from the student body. Matti Rantaniemi ofBioZone Scientific will review the progress ofthe team weekly. Phase 2: Pro Forma Preparation and Survey (November 2 through November /3) Using the information obtained in Phase one, the BYU Team will execute a survey to students at Brigham Young University. The purposes ofthe survey are to determine (l) the importance ofclean and odor free restrooms to users, (2) how cleanliness affects customer satisfaction, loyalty, and the overall image ofthe business, (3) how concerned the users are about airborne bacteria in public restrooms. Phase 3: Analysis (November 18 through November 26) After conducting a survey and pro·fonna evaluation, the BYU Team will analyze the data collected to determine demand in the United States for the AirCare unit by using Utah County as a sample for the rest ofthe country. Phase 4: Report Delivery (November 27) The findings, analysis, and final recommended plan ofaction will be submitted to the Orlando offices of BioZone Scientific. The project will officially conclude with this ronnal oral and written report to be presented by our team to BioZone Scientific's Management. The oral report will be made on Monday, 27 November 2006. ,... !!! ···Iiiii Biozone, 2 N ,of €XISTeNC6 'R,6S6ARCt-t Deliverables Seven copies ofthe final written report will be delivered at the time ofthe oral presentation; all ofthese copies wilt become the property of BioZone.

    Urban WASH Lessons Learned from Post- Earthquake Response in Haiti Large-scale urban WASH programming requires different approaches to those normally employed in Oxfam emergency response activities. This paper examines the lessons learned from the WASH response to the Haiti earthquake in January 2010. The paper also gives practical case studies of some of the success and failures from the WASH activities, undertaken in a very high-density urban/peri-urban context. Introduction Oxfam’s WASH response At the height of the emergency response, Oxfam GB was The main WASH activities undertaken in the earthquake supporting 149,613 people1 with water, sanitation and response in Port-au-Prince included: hygiene promotion in more than 46 sites in the Port-au- Water trucking & distribution Prince area. 18 Camps had populations greater than Water system rehabilitation & community 1,000 people, while the largest camp, Petionville Golf management Course, had a population in excess of 50,000 people.

However, menstrual hygiene products widely receive separate treatment in restrooms across the globe. While it would be absurd today to carry a roll of toilet paper at all times, it is considered necessary and common sense for all menstruators to carry menstrual hy- giene products at all times, for approximately forty years, in case of an emergency.

  • The Mercurian
    The Mercurian : : A Theatrical Translation Review Volume 7, Number 3 (Spring 2019) Editor: Adam Versényi Editorial Assistant: Sarah Booker ISSN: 2160-3316 The Mercurian is named for Mercury who, if he had known it, was/is the patron god of theatrical translators, those intrepid souls possessed of eloquence, feats of skill, messengers not between the gods but between cultures, traders in images, nimble and dexterous linguistic thieves. Like the metal mercury, theatrical translators are capable of absorbing other metals, forming amalgams. As in ancient chemistry, the mercurian is one of the five elementary “principles” of which all material substances are compounded, otherwise known as “spirit.” The theatrical translator is sprightly, lively, potentially volatile, sometimes inconstant, witty, an ideal guide or conductor on the road. The Mercurian publishes translations of plays and performance pieces from any language into English. The Mercurian also welcomes theoretical pieces about theatrical translation, rants, manifestos, and position papers pertaining to translation for the theatre, as well as production histories of theatrical translations. Submissions should be sent to: Adam Versényi at [email protected] or by snail mail: Adam Versényi, Department of Dramatic Art, CB# 3230, The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Chapel Hill, NC 27599-3230. For translations of plays or performance pieces, unless the material is in the public domain, please send proof of permission to translate from the playwright or original creator of the piece. Since one of the primary objects of The Mercurian is to move translated pieces into production, no translations of plays or performance pieces will be published unless the translator can certify that he/she has had an opportunity to hear the translation performed in either a reading or another production-oriented venue.
