<p style='text-indent:20px;'>The length function <inline-formula><tex-math id="M3">\begin{document}$ \ell_q(r,R) $\end{document}</tex-math></inline-formula> is the smallest length of a <inline-formula><tex-math id="M4">\begin{document}$ q $\end{document}</tex-math></inline-formula>-ary linear code with codimension (redundancy) <inline-formula><tex-math id="M5">\begin{document}$ r $\end{document}</tex-math></inline-formula> and covering radius <inline-formula><tex-math id="M6">\begin{document}$ R $\end{document}</tex-math></inline-formula>.

A score certificate for a tournament, $T$, is a collection of arcs of $T$ which can be uniquely completed to a tournament with the same score-list as $T$'s, and the score certificate number of $T$ is the least number of arcs in a score certificate of $T$. Upper bounds on the score certificate number of upset tournaments are derived. The upset tournaments on $n$ vertices are in one–to–one correspondence with the ordered partitions of $n-3$, and are "almost" transitive tournaments. For each upset tournament on $n$ vertices a general construction of a score certificate with at most $2n-3$ arcs is given. Also, for the upset tournament, $T_{\lambda}$, corresponding to the ordered partition $\lambda$, a score certificate with at most $n+2k+3$ arcs is constructed, where $k$ is the number of parts of $\lambda$ of size at least 2. Lower bounds on the score certificate number of $T_{\lambda}$ in the case that each part is sufficiently large are derived. In particular, the score certificate number of the so-called nearly transitive tournament on $n$ vertices is shown to be $n+3$, for $n\geq 10$.

A program for providing information to children who are deaf about their deafness and addressing common concerns about deafness is detailed. Developed by a school audiologist and the school counselor, this two-part program is geared for children from 3 years to 15 years of age. The first part is an educational audiology program consisting of varied informational classes conducted by the audiologist. Five topics are addressed in this part of the program, including basic audiology, hearing aids, FM systems, audiograms, and student concerns. The second part of the program consists of individualized counseling. This involves both one-to-one counseling sessions between a student and the school counselor, as well as conjoint sessions conducted—with the student’s permission—by both the audiologist and the school counselor.
