Research has shown that using a dawn simulator (or Bodyclock) can significantly reduce the severity of SAD [seasonal affective disorder] symptoms, and many SAD sufferers use both a Bodyclock and a lightbox to optimise their treatment. It has also been shown that using a Bodyclock improves mood, energy, productivity and quality of sleep and awakening. 3, record 3, English, - dawn%20simulator
Record number: 3, Textual support number: 1 OBS
Bodyclocks work by waking you up naturally with light. You choose the time you want to wake up and the light very slowly begins to get brighter(like a sunrise) and starts your body's natural wake-up process. Although you’re still asleep, your body is responding to the increasing light and when the light reaches full brightness you wake up naturally, not suddenly, to a room filled with a sunny glow. By giving your body a kind of "head-start, "instead of still feeling drowsy and confused when you wake up, you feel refreshed, positive and ready for the day ahead. 3, record 3, English, - dawn%20simulator

Methods for evaluating machinery replacement decisions developed by the US Machinery & Allied Products Institute. There are two basic methods. One concentrates attention on comparisons for one year immediately ahead through the use of a relatively simple two page computing form. This gives the first year's after tax rate of return for a specific investment project. The results are similar to use of the DCF method. The second basic MAPI method puts emphasis on the return to be expected over the asset's full life. 1, record 5, English, - MAPI%20method

An elementary and unschooled way of propelling oneself in the water : imperfect prone position, head out of the water facing straight ahead, arms alternately and nervously moving forward and backward under the water, away from the body and without a complete extension forward nor a full traction and pull along the body backward, legs beating in a bending-and-unbending motion of the knees rather than in an effective beat of the extended legs on the surface of the water. 2, record 6, English, - dog%20paddle
Record number: 6, Textual support number: 1 OBS
The unschooled way a human propels himself through the water. Children’s paddling is often more chaotic, with the arms alternately clawing at the water to move forward; breathing is irregular, legs thrashing and inconsistent. A more mature dog paddle can be rhythmic and steady, but the arms never go out of the water and the head is never submerged. Thus the stroke closely resembles a dog moving through the water. 3, record 6, English, - dog%20paddle

Each layer of plywood is called a veneer; these are produced in several ways including rotary cutting, half-round cutting with the stay log, slicing, and sawing. Rotary cutting is by far the most important... Logs which are to be made into rotary-cut veneer... are removed from storage and cut into bolts... The bolts are softened... and the bark is removed. Each bolt is centered in a large lathe, and the cutting mechanism-a pressure bar and knife that run the full length of the bolt-is put in place. As the bolt is turned, the knife peels off a thin layer of veneer while the pressure bar compresses the wood ahead of the knife to reduce splitting and cutting checks. 3, record 7, English, - rotary%20cutting

Peeling provides the greatest volume and the most rapid production, because logs are merely rotated against a flat knife and the veneer is peeled off in a long continuous sheet. 4, record 7, English, - rotary%20cutting
