This document summarizes stress ulcer prophylaxis in the ICU. It discusses that stress ulcers are superficial gastric erosions caused by impaired blood flow to the stomach that prevents normal mucosal lining replacement. Left untreated, stress ulcers can lead to translocation of bacteria and hemorrhage. Patients at highest risk include those with head injuries, major burns, surgery, trauma, shock or ventilation over 48 hours. Prevention strategies focus on maintaining splanchnic blood flow, enteral nutrition, and pharmacologic treatments.2 Ejercicio b¨¢sico tutorial en radiolog¨ªa Quiropr¨¢cticawww.dolordeespalda.cl www.icup.cl

The document discusses the need for journalists to improve their skills in data visualization and infographics. It notes that while data and visuals have become mainstream in journalism, journalists may not communicate data as effectively as they think. It proposes that journalism programs should better teach skills like graphic design, data journalism, and visualization in addition to traditional journalistic skills. Examples are given of how some university programs are introducing more courses in programming, databases, and data visualization to prepare journalists for working with data.DoriaKnight Center

The document discusses the challenges modern newsrooms face in integrating technology and content to create engaging experiences for increasingly promiscuous digital audiences. It argues that newsrooms must pivot from creating just great content to also creating great experiences using multimedia and interactivity. However, integrating content and technology is difficult as journalists and developers have different views of content and code. The document suggests newsrooms embed developers to improve collaboration and rethink strategies like shelf-life to better engage audiences online.Stevens

Studies show that Americans care about data privacy but do little to protect their private data. Privacy expectations are shaped by interface design and context cues, but interface designs simplify complexity which can mislead users about how their data is used. Social reading platforms increased their user base quickly by appearing to offer content access in exchange for installing reader software, but users may not understand this increases their vulnerability by distributing their data without context about permissions. Interface design must balance usability and transparency about how data is collected and shared.Entrepreneurship & Quality Management

SCALE-UP OF MICROCHANNEL REACTORS FOR FISCHER-TROPSCHJohn Glenning
?
The scale-up of microchannel reactors for Fischer-Tropsch synthesis has been demonstrated through multiple scales with equivalent performance. Small single channel reactors and larger reactors with 276 parallel channels showed consistent CO conversion rates of 70-75% and methane selectivity of 8-9% when tested with the same catalyst under identical conditions. This confirms that microchannel reactor performance is unaffected by increasing channel length or number of channels, enabling scale-up while maintaining nearly isothermal conditions ideal for Fischer-Tropsch synthesis.Letter of Recommendation-Bill Lafer

The document discusses Velocys' development of micro-channel reactors for Fischer-Tropsch processes. It describes challenges with the manufacturing process including high costs and inability to meet tight specifications. Initial testing showed reactor productivity was higher than modeled, but the manufacturing process was still not capable of producing acceptable yields. The document recommends identifying alternative manufacturing processes to improve capabilities, reduce costs and further increase reactor productivity.Lean Manufacturing

The document discusses approaches to implementing lean manufacturing through warehouse execution systems. It notes traditional approaches often fail due to lack of management support, training, and buy-in. Root causes for lean gaps include reactionary decisions, uncertain workforces, shifting supply chains, and lack of clear direction. It advocates implementing performance management to monitor goals and identify problems. Real-time information systems can improve operations, customer demand, supply chain, workforce, and logistics management. The document concludes the focus should be cascading goals throughout the organization and continuously monitoring and recalibrating performance.John Glenning's Process Deveiopment and Manufacturing Strategy December 2008

Safety is a top priority, with the goal of eliminating at least one safety issue per week. Process improvements should focus on reducing defects rather than solely improving yields. All defects on a product should be counted to determine the top defect categories to address. Process optimization efforts should start small and use design of experiments and statistical analysis to identify key variables for improvement. Attainment is reached when further improvements do not provide sufficient economic benefits.Yield and Productivity Improvements

How To Read PeopleJohn Glenning
?
This document provides guidance on how to read people by establishing baselines, recognizing patterns of behavior, and remaining objective. It discusses several key points:
1. The importance of understanding yourself before trying to understand others and overcoming your own biases.
2. People reveal more of themselves to those closer to them, like an onion with multiple layers, and you must get them to reveal more layers to read them fully.
3. Body language, environment, and behavior across different contexts provide clues, but consistency of patterns over time is most revealing; no single trait tells the full story.
4. The first impression provides important details, but should not be the sole basis for judgment until more context is establishedHutchinson Technology eliminating 500 jobs

Hutchinson Technology, a maker of disk drive components, is eliminating 500 jobs due to increasing competition and overcapacity. Most of the jobs cuts are at four manufacturing facilities, including 225 jobs in Hutchinson, Minnesota and 25 jobs in Plymouth, Minnesota. The layoffs are expected to save $35 million annually. Hutchinson is facing challenges from Asian competitors and has been losing market share, which has hurt its financial performance. The job cuts are aimed at reducing costs to improve competitiveness and profitability.Equipment Operations for Production and Development

The document outlines John Glenning's recommendations for operations to ensure equipment is properly maintained for production and development. It emphasizes the importance of always being ready to do maintenance through activities like ensuring equipment is operational and spare parts are available. It also recommends developing critical spare parts lists, tracking component failures and their causes, monitoring downtime metrics, and establishing a robust maintenance program to keep equipment running optimally. The overall goal is to minimize unplanned downtime through preventative maintenance practices.Photo-Lithography and Wet Processing (Develop, Etch and Strip)

Photolithography is the process of transferring geometric patterns from a photomask to a photoresist layer on a substrate. Light is used to transfer the pattern from the mask to the photoresist. The process takes place in a cleanroom to prevent particulate contamination, which can cause voids. After exposure, an etching or deposition step is used to transfer the pattern to the substrate. Precise alignment is needed when patterning both sides of devices.Photo lithography

This document discusses the critical need to develop technologies to remove aqueous mercury from water sources. Mercury contamination is a growing problem that impacts human health and development. The largest sources of mercury pollution are coal-fired power plants, which emit mercury into the air and water through wet scrubbers. Existing wastewater from power plants contains high levels of mercury that accumulate over time and can re-enter the environment. There is an urgent need for cost-effective technologies that can reduce mercury levels in wastewater to parts-per-trillion concentrations in order to protect public health and comply with future water quality standards.Recommendation Letter for John Glenning-Bill Lafer
