Pink Slip Party
She's been handed her walking papers. Jane McGregor has just been laid off from her job designing pink slips for an office supply company. The irony is not lost on her. She's a twenty-eight-year-old art major whose last major career accomplishment was being propositioned by the company vice president. Desperate to maintain her freedom from her oddball parents, tyrannical older brother, and slacker ex-boyfriend, Jane starts sending out resumes. So what if some of them aren't exactly, well, true. She's taking the future in stride. When Jane's dad, a staunchly conservative believer in the corporate dream, loses his job, and her mom goes to work for a trendy dot com, Jane discovers that the family she's taken for granted is unraveling. After a fellow lay-off victim hatches a plot to seek revenge on the office supply company, Jane must choose between living in the past and seeking out a new future. To her surprise, that future might involve a most unlikely partner in crime -- handsome, funny Kyle Burton -- and maybe, just maybe, a new job, too.

Stressed Skin Panels
A stressed skin panel is an engineered, prebuilt component consisting of a frame of dimensional lumber, to which top and bottom flanges of plywood or other panel material are structurally glued. Flanges are traditionally made of Douglas fir, but if made of Alberta spruce plywood and oriented strandboard(OSB), could provide new markets for Alberta. Twenty-four stressed skin panels were designed, constructed and tested: 6 with flanges of Douglas-fir plywood, 6 with flanges of Alberta spruce plywood, and 12 with flanges of OSB. Half were tested to verify that established engineering design theories hold for stressed skin panels made with OSB and spruce plywood flanges, and the other half were tested to study the effect of sustained loading (1000 day duration) on stressed skin panels made with OSB and spruce plywood flanges.
