The ASME Pressure Vessel and Piping Division is celebrating its fortieth year of operation. This year’s Conference Technical Program contains over 700 technical papers, panel and plenary sessions, tutorials and forums organized into more than 210 technical sessions, tutorials, student paper competition, and workshops. We particularly welcome the Sixth FSI, AE and FIV, and N Symposium. The NDE and Software Demonstration forums are organized as part of our technical program. The PVP Conference is a great place to present your ideas and to meet colleagues as we address the present and future challenges in our industry. Technical papers presented in this Conference are separated into tracks in accordance with their techni- cal areas and published in the Conference proceedings in the form of a CD ROM. The ASME Pressure Vessels and Piping Division is sponsoring this Conference jointly with the International Council on Pressure Vessel Technology (ICPVT) in collaboration with the ASME NDE and Pipeline Systems Divisions, and the Canadian Society of Mechanical Engineers. With participation from the Americas, Canada, Europe, and Asia, we shall truly be able to address current and emerging pressure vessel technologies in a global context. A series of social events will complement the technical program. The Sunday evening cultural event will feature storeis, songs, and dances by the Chinook SongCatchers. The Vancouver City Tour will take place on Monday morning, and the Conference-Wide Reception will be held on Monday evening. On Tuesday, the Majestic North Shore Tour will take you to the Capilano Narrows suspension bridge and a walk among the tree tops of the old growth forest, followed by a ride to the top of Grouse Mountain where you will be entertained by the lumberjack and bird shows, the theatre in the sky, and lots of outdoor fun. The dinner cruise on Wednesday evening will showcase the beautiful Vancouver scenery and will conclude with a spectacular fireworks display.

Nuclear reactors have three attributes that are driving renewed interest in nuclear power generation.

Therefore, PRESSURE VESSEL TECHNOLOGY even large changes in fuel costs have relatively little impact on the overall The International Council on Pressure Vessel Technology (ICPVT) consists energy costs. This is in contrast to fossil fuel power generation, where fuel of representatives from 24 member countries representing three different can make up 70% of the overall energy cost.

  • Vertical Facility List
    Facility List The Walt Disney Company is committed to fostering safe, inclusive and respectful workplaces wherever Disney-branded products are manufactured. Numerous measures in support of this commitment are in place, including increased transparency. To that end, we have published this list of the roughly 7,600 facilities in over 70 countries that manufacture Disney-branded products sold, distributed or used in our own retail businesses such as The Disney Stores and Theme Parks, as well as those used in our internal operations. Our goal in releasing this information is to foster collaboration with industry peers, governments, non- governmental organizations and others interested in improving working conditions. Under our International Labor Standards (ILS) Program, facilities that manufacture products or components incorporating Disney intellectual properties must be declared to Disney and receive prior authorization to manufacture. The list below includes the names and addresses of facilities disclosed to us by vendors under the requirements of Disney’s ILS Program for our vertical business, which includes our own retail businesses and internal operations. The list does not include the facilities used only by licensees of The Walt Disney Company or its affiliates that source, manufacture and sell consumer products by and through independent entities. Disney’s vertical business comprises a wide range of product categories including apparel, toys, electronics, food, home goods, personal care, books and others. As a result, the number of facilities involved in the production of Disney-branded products may be larger than for companies that operate in only one or a limited number of product categories. In addition, because we require vendors to disclose any facility where Disney intellectual property is present as part of the manufacturing process, the list includes facilities that may extend beyond finished goods manufacturers or final assembly locations.

    Kyocera CSR Report 2007 CSR Report Kyocera Kyocera CSR Report KYOCERA Corporation —Economic, Social and Environmental Reports— 2007 About the cover design Kyocera was established in 1959 as a small suburban workshop where 28 young colleagues pursued big dreams. Our first product was a U-shaped ceramic insulator (known as a Kelcima) for use within early television picture tubes. Today, Kyocera is a highly diversified global enterprise. We pursue boundless dreams by accepting challenges that others timidly avoid. We believe that a strong will can make dreams come true, and that limitless effort can overcome any obstacle. These beliefs from Kyocera’s history remain the driving force behind our growth. We aim to become a creative company that grows continuously throughout the future. Kyocera Group employees around the world who have adopted this challenging spirit personify our path to growth. The illustration on the cover page of this report was designed in the likeness of the U-Shaped Kelcima. U-Shaped Kelcima To minimize environmental impact, the following practices were adopted in producing this report. Printing Method A waterless printing technique was used. Ink The report is printed with soy ink, free of VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds). Paper The cover material is "thinning white" paper, which uses 70% domestic wood pulp, including 10% pulp derived from the thinning of forests. The inside pages are 100% high-quality recycled newspaper, with a 70% whiteness level.
