Simultaneous equations for the BCS parameter Δ and for the Fermi energy in the BCS state are studied at low carrier concentrations in bulk and thin-film superconducting semiconductors at T=0 for large cutoff energies, and solutions are plotted in the form of universal curves. For electron-electron attraction greater than some critical value in bulk material or for any attractive interaction in very thin films, the pair-binding energy tends to a constant limit for low n, and pairing without superconductivity is expected in some temperature range. Solutions of simultaneous equations for Tc as obtained by formal application of the BCS theory, and for the Fermi energy at Tc, are also obtained in bulk material; but it is shown that at low carrier concentrations the temperature Tp at which pairing takes place is given by Tp=2Tc, while it is thought that superconductivity will not set in until a lower temperature, of the order of the Bose-Einstein condensation temperature of the pairs, is reached. By combining the above theory with a previously published model for superconductivity in Zr-doped SrTiO3, predictions for this material in the region of low carrier concentrations are made.

A large body of research investigates the role that similarity of attitudes plays in attraction. According to studies by Ellen Berscheid and Elaine H. Walster (1969) and Donn Byrne (1971) in general people are most attracted to others who share similar attitudes. Additionally people who share similar important attitudes (e.g., attitudes concerning home and family) are more likely to be attracted to each other than those who share less important attitudes (e.g., attitudes toward certain fabric softeners).
Furthermore people are attracted to romantic partners who share similar physical characteristics and levels of physical attractiveness. Tall people are more likely to marry tall partners than short ones, and attractive people are more likely to marry attractive partners than unattractive ones.
In summary similarity-attraction theory attempts to explain and predict interpersonal liking by asserting that people are attracted to others who are similar to themselves. Consistent with this view, research has revealed that people prefer to affiliate with those who share similar attitudes, personalities, physical attributes, and a host of other characteristics compared to others who do not. Though similarity/attraction theory explains many cases of interpersonal attraction, it may not accurately predict all attraction outcomes. In some cases complementarity or avoidance of dissimilar others may better explain certain patterns of human liking.

Mobile food vendors have grown in popularity and have become a routine attraction at special events and local venues. Our goal is to ensure these operations are conducted in a safe manner to help ensure the continued operation of the business while reducing potential hazards that may threaten public safety. Routine inspections will be conducted for mobile food vendors to identify and eliminate basic fire hazards, educate vendors on potential hazards, while promoting a safe and livable community.
A new process was implemented on January 1st, 2020, and will replace the previous Certificate of Operation that required a vendor to receive an inspection at each location of operation and will simplify the inspection process. This permit does not replace the vendors obligation to obtain a City Business License or coordinate with or comply with Zoning requirements.
The 2018 International Fire Code (IFC), adopted as the South Carolina Fire Code, includes regulations for mobile food vendors and has been mandated for statewide adoption on January 1, 2020. A Mobile Food Vendor Information Bulletin and Self-Inspection has been created to assist you with achieving and maintaining compliance with some of the common issues impacting mobile vendors.
Safety is our number one priority. The program is intended to eliminate basic fire hazards while educating our vendors, promoting a safe community, and reduce the potential of business interruption from a preventable hazard. Additional safety information can be found from the National Fire Protection Association on the NFPA Food Truck Fact Sheet.
Interested vendors should complete the Mobile Food Vendor Application and attach all of the requested documentation. Our goal is to process the application within approximately 6 business days and then schedule your inspection. Interested vendors must have or obtain a current City Business License.
