- Fostering nurse-led care 2013, ebrary"Nurse leaders exist at every level--from the bedside to the boardroom. But these days, nurse leaders and managers face major changes in health care delivery models that pressure them to improve patient care but at the same time improve efficiency and lower costs. Add to this the demand to provide nursing education and improve retentions, and the pressure can mount and create additional problems for your organization. The solution? Fostering Nurse-Led Care--from three of Massachusettes General Hospital's top nurse executives--tells nurse leaders and care providers the secrets of the professional practice model that has improved system outcomes and increased patient, family, and staff satisfaction for nearly 20 years. The book provides details including developing, implementing, and evaluating a professional practice environment; optimizing quality standards; implementing patient safety measurements and balancing cost with quality; building an effective learning environment; and resolving conflicts and ethical dilemmas"--Page 4 of cover.
- Foundations of Chinese psychology 2012, Springer"Originally, the global exporting of psychology was considered a means of bringing science and modernism to underdeveloped parts of the world. In response, indigenous psychology has emerged as an alternative to the individual-focused theories and therapies of Western cultures, as well as a critique of the idea that the tenets of Western thought apply to all nations. The first full-length work analyzing its Confucian roots, Foundations of Chinese Psychology strips away the myths and assumptions that can impede reliable scholarship while supplying the context necessary for decoding complex, longstanding traditions of behavior. The author re-interprets the widely held idea of collectivism (which is often defined as the absence of individualism) in favor of the more descriptive relationism, using the structure of Confucian ethics as a lens for testing theories and understanding findings on Chinese social relationships. Elaborating on key concepts such as guanxi (personal connection) and face (social standing), the book offers both a specific paradigm for studying non-Western cultures and a model for indigenous psychologies worldwide. Included in the coverage: The Confucian model of mind and the way of humanity; Confucian relationalism and social exchange; Life goals and achievement motivation in Confucian society; Ethics, morality, and the concept of face; Guanxi and organizational behavior. Indigenous Chinese models of conflict resolution. Foundations of Chinese Psychology is a landmark volume of immediate interest to researchers, particularly members of the American Psychological Association, the Asian Association of Indigenous and Cultural Psychology, the International Academy of Intercultural Research, and similar organizations."--Publisher's website.

- "WHO's third decade was characterized by a sense of optimism, perhaps naive in retrospect. There was a feeling that progress was possible, not only in health, but in social and economic ways to improve individual and collective well-being. This optimism was reflected in the approval by the Thirtieth World Health Assembly in May 1977 of resolution WHA30.43, which stated that WHO's main social target for the coming decades should be for all citizens of the world to attain by the year 2000 a level of health to enable them to lead socially and economically productive lives."--Introduction, p. vii.
- Fractal analysis of breast masses in mammograms 2012, AtyponFractal analysis is useful in digital image processing for the characterization of shape roughness and gray-scale texture or complexity. Breast masses present shape and gray-scale characteristics in mammograms that vary between benign masses and malignant tumors. This book demonstrates the use of fractal analysis to classify breast masses as benign masses or malignant tumors based on the irregularity exhibited in their contours and the gray-scale variability exhibited in their mammographic images. A few different approaches are described to estimate the fractal dimension (FD) of the contour of a mass, including the ruler method, box-counting method, and the power spectral analysis (PSA) method. Procedures are also described for the estimation of the FD of the gray-scale image of a mass using the blanket method and the PSA method.

- Residents and junior doctors on rotation are under constant pressure to have accurate and up-to-date information available to them. This is never more important than when on rotation in the Emergency Room. Junior doctors often lack experience in orthopaedics making the recognition and accurate identification of fractures and their treatment a challenging task.The second edition of this comprehensive handbook contains a wealth of illustrations and explanatory text, which is organized into a concise repository of information on fractures according to the most widely used classification systems. The classification systems covered include AO and OTA systems. This allows readers the opportunity to make a correct diagnosis using the appropriate criteria, while simplifying the planning of further management and ensuring that communication with experienced staff is more effective.

- Frailty model 2008, Springer
- Frailty models in survival analysis 2011, CRCnetBASEThe concept of frailty offers a convenient way to introduce unobserved heterogeneity and associations into models for survival data. In its simplest form, frailty is an unobserved random proportionality factor that modifies the hazard function of an individual or a group of related individuals. Frailty Models in Survival Analysis presents a comprehensive overview of the fundamental approaches in the area of frailty models. The book extensively explores how univariate frailty models can represent unobserved heterogeneity. It also emphasizes correlated frailty models as extensions of univariate and shared frailty models. The author analyzes similarities and differences between frailty and copula models; discusses problems related to frailty models, such as tests for homogeneity; and describes parametric and semiparametric models using both frequentist and Bayesian approaches. He also shows how to apply the models to real data using the statistical packages of R, SAS, and Stata. The appendix provides the technical mathematical results used throughout. Written in nontechnical terms accessible to nonspecialists, this book explains the basic ideas in frailty modeling and statistical techniques, with a focus on real-world data application and interpretation of the results. By applying several models to the same data, it allows for the comparison of their advantages and limitations under varying model assumptions. The book also employs simulations to analyze the finite sample size performance of the models.--From the publisher's website.

- Freud on interpretation 2012, Springer"In its early days, some saw psychology as a substitute for religion. Others regarded it as a new religion in its own right. What was less obvious to most observers--and far less obvious today--were the roots of Freud's work in the ancient mystical teachings of the Middle East. A unique analysis, Freud on Interpretation examines the inner workings of his thought process and the rich mine of knowledge that led him toward his theories and therapies. In the beliefs of ancient Egypt, with its sexually ambiguous dieties, and ancient Israel, with its Biblical accounts of madness and feigned madness, are found surprising sources of inspiration for such core Freudian concepts as free association, dream interpretation, the psychosexual stages, the libido, and the unconscious. Psychoanalyis here is seen in its early growth stages, fed and nurtured by philosophers, scientists, and fearless mind explorers; and Freud is boldly synthesizing modes of knowledge from an age when science and superstition were rarely separate. This compelling volume: Overviews the pre-Freudian history of psychology in the writings of Herbart, Morel, and Krafft-Ebing; Probes Freud's interest in ancient Egyptian creation myths and the Kabbala, and their influence on his work; Explores the paradoxes inherent in the interpretation of the mind; Offers unique insights into the origins of the Rorschach test; Considers the real meaning behind Freud's self-identification as a determinist; Includes a listing of Freud's library of titles on ancient Egypt; Freud on Interpretation is stimulating reading for clinical psychologists and those interested in the intellectual and professional development of the master psychiatrist."--Publisher's website.

- From basic cardiac imaging to image fusion 2013, SpringerThe recent development of three-dimensional imaging techniques has provided an enormous amount of information relevant to the clinical management of patients at low and high risk for coronary artery disease. However, while progress in each individual technique has been rapid, the correlation of findings obtained with radiology, nuclear medicine, and magnetic resonance imaging is still relatively neglected. In this book, qualified experts in cardiac imaging present the basic concepts of cardiac disease and imaging and compare the findings obtained in particular subspecialties with those acquired using other techniques. In this way the reader will learn how images and techniques can be integrated in clinical practice to the benefit of the patient. In addition, the issue is addressed of reducing the patient's exposure to ionizing radiation through appropriate multimodality integration. Physicians ranging from cardiac surgeons to internal medicine specialists and even public health administrators will find this book invaluable in understanding the role of hybrid cardiac imaging.

- Frontiers in eating and weight regulation 2010, Karger"The development of effective preventive and therapeutic measures to control eating and body weight involves basic physiology as well as cognitive and social psychology. The potential of molecular genetics to illuminate brain-behavior relationships became apparent with the discovery of the leptin gene in 1994. At present, molecular methodologies are being integrated with other physiological approaches, resulting in a number of options from which effective therapeutic strategies may evolve. This book highlights this exciting juncture: Fifteen leading experts present brief descriptions of some of the latest developments of the physiology of eating and weight regulation, ranging from endocrine and neural controls to genetics and functional brain imaging. These Frontier chapters are preceded by a general overview that provides requisite background on the physiology of eating as well as a conceptual framework for the Frontier chapters."--Publisher's description.

The Lamb and His 144,000 Followers
1 # Ez 9.4Rev 7.3 I looked and saw the Lamb standing on Mount Zion!#14.1 Mount Zion: Another name for Jerusalem. With him were 144,000, who had his name and his Father's name written on their foreheads. 2#1 Esd 6.17 Then I heard a sound from heaven that was like a roaring flood or loud thunder or even like the music of harps. 3And a new song was being sung in front of God's throne and in front of the four living creatures and the elders. No one could learn that song, except the 144,000 who had been rescued from the earth. 4All of these are pure virgins, and they follow the Lamb wherever he leads. They have been rescued to be presented to God and the Lamb as the most precious people#14.4 the most precious people: The Greek text has "the first people." The Law of Moses taught that the first-born of all animals and the first part of the harvest were special and belonged to the Lord. on earth. 5#Zep 3.13 They never tell lies, and they are innocent.
The Messages of the Three Angels
6I saw another angel. This one was flying across the sky and had the eternal good news to announce to the people of every race, tribe, language, and nation on earth. 7The angel shouted, "Worship and honor God! The time has come for him to judge everyone. Kneel down before the one who created heaven and earth, the oceans, and every stream."
8 # Is 21.9Jr 51.8Rev 18.2 A second angel followed and said, "The great city of Babylon has fallen! This is the city that made all nations drunk and immoral. Now God is angry, and Babylon has fallen."
9Finally, a third angel came and shouted:
Here is what will happen if you worship the beast and the idol and have the mark of the beast on your hand or forehead. 10#Is 51.17Gn 19.24Ez 38.22 You will have to drink the wine that God gives to everyone who makes him angry. You will feel his mighty anger, and you will be tortured with fire and burning sulfur, while the holy angels and the Lamb look on.
11 # Is 34.10 If you worship the beast and the idol and accept the mark of its name, you will be tortured day and night. The smoke from your torture will go up forever and ever, and you will never be able to rest.
12God's people must learn to endure. They must also obey his commands and have faith in Jesus.
13Then I heard a voice from heaven say, "Put this in writing. From now on, the Lord will bless everyone who has faith in him when they die."
The Spirit answered, "Yes, they will rest from their hard work, and they will be rewarded for what they have done."
The Earth Is Harvested
14 # Dn 7.13 I looked and saw a bright cloud, and someone who seemed to be the Son of Man#14.14 Son of Man: See the note at 1.13. was sitting on the cloud. He wore a gold crown on his head and held a sharp sickle#14.14 sickle: A knife with a long curved blade, used to cut grain and other crops. in his hand. 15#Jl 3.13 An angel came out of the temple and shouted, "Start cutting with your sickle! Harvest season is here, and all crops on earth are ripe." 16The one on the cloud swung his sickle and harvested the crops.
17Another angel with a sharp sickle then came out of the temple in heaven. 18After this, an angel with power over fire came from the altar and shouted to the angel who had the sickle. He said, "All grapes on earth are ripe! Harvest them with your sharp sickle." 19The angel swung his sickle on earth and cut off its grapes. He threw them into a pit#14.19 pit: It was the custom to put grapes in a pit (called a wine press) and trample on them to make juice that would later turn to wine. where they were trampled on as a sign of God's anger. 20#Is 63.3Lm 1.15Rev 19.15 The pit was outside the city, and when the grapes were mashed, blood flowed out. The blood turned into a river that was about 300 kilometers long and almost deep enough to cover a horse.

Supporting Full-Service Customer Requirements at the Regional EMS Level |
Written by Jeff Roberts | |||
Friday, 31 October 2008 19:00 | |||
Greater traceability and complex builds means more staff. Or does it?OEMs increasingly want to see greater levels of value-added support from their EMS providers, regardless of size. This is particularly true of highly regulated industries such as medical, automotive, avionics, homeland security and defense where field failure analysis activities may require information related to assembly process parameters. Furthermore, the transition to RoHS-compliant manufacturing is driving a need for better process traceability to support OEM studies of the impact of new processes on long-term product reliability. For the regional EMS provider, this presents an interesting challenge. How can technologically complex customer requirements be met while maintaining an overhead structure commensurate with a smaller business footprint? For Clover Electronics, the answer has been to develop a strategy that uses a combination of factory automation and strategic supplier alliances to address customer requirements without significantly adding to overhead cost. The fact that most OEMs have fully embraced the idea that all their EMS providers should be full partners in manufacturing is actually a positive development that enables all levels of EMS firms to increase the percentage of value-add contributed to a project and contribute to improved product manufacturability and quality. Also, greater codependency drives longer-term relationships, which can be cost-effective for both parties. Meeting these customer needs for competitive cost, high quality and excellent traceability requires both technological expertise and a business strategy that focuses on reducing hidden costs and leveraging outside resources. The Technology Strategy At Clover Electronics, the technology strategy needed to address three areas:
As mentioned, regional EMS providers must offer a full range of service and expertise without creating excessive overhead expense. At regional revenue levels, it can be cost-prohibitive to have a full-time process engineering staff capable of providing all the answers in paste deposition or thermal profiling that may be required by that company's 30 or more customers. One way to address this issue is to supplement internal staff with strategic alliances that fill the gaps. Second, automating key points in process monitoring permits fast development of robust processes and makes it easy for technicians and production operators to handle a portion of what has traditionally been an engineering workload. For example, in this EMS provider's SMT production area, solder paste deposition is monitored using a DEK Hawkeye 2-D in-process vision system followed by an offline 3-D laser measurement system for key characteristics of first-article inspection and statistical process control (Figure 1). Reflow soldering is optimized with a KIC system for precise profile development and continuous monitoring of the thermal profile. Each product has a documented list of key inspection points and a sample size. Setting parameters correctly from the project start ensures consistent quality. A key area where engineering workload can be reduced through automation is thermal profiling. Determining ideal thermal profiles can be a challenge even for large EMS providers because profiling can be fairly subjective. Five engineers may give five different recommendations. Use of thermal profiling software can automate the rapid development of thermal profiles. In this example, the system supports three areas of the reflow process: profiling, process optimization and process monitoring/traceability. The OEM customer initially defines the process window typically by determining the intersection among solder specifications, the substrate specifications and component tolerances. An engineer at the contractor then attaches thermocouples to a sample product and runs a manual profile to compare against the process window. Time vs. temperature, peak temp or whatever data the customer requires can be collected. The software generates a Process Window Index: a single number that indicates how the process fits the defined process window. The lower the number, the closer the process is toward the center of the process window. The size of the process window and capabilities of the reflow oven determine how low the number can be and facilitate development of robust thermal profiles in tighter process windows. For instance, RoHS has tighter process windows and use of this type of mathematical modeling can help in rapid determination of the best profile option. To establish PWI options, the process optimization software monitors oven set points such as conveyor speed and temperature in each zone, and will select the optimum combination within a few seconds. The definition of the optimum profile can vary by project. In some cases, a profile in the center of the process window is most desirable. In another situation, the optimum profile may be the process with the highest conveyor speed deep in spec. Another option may be the process that consumes the least amount of energy within spec. Once the appropriate PWI is selected, the oven is ready for production. Most EMS companies run a manual profile at set intervals. The challenge is this methodology establishes whether the reflow process is within specifications during the spot check, but doesn't necessarily demonstrate whether it is in spec during the entire production run. Plus, there are many opportunities where a machine is stable but the process is out of specification. For example, if the exhaust changes, the profile may go out of spec even though the oven appears stable. If an operator loads the wrong recipe, it processes the wrong recipe. It's to the manufacturer's advantage to be able to measure the profile for each and every board processed through the reflow oven, including the PWI for each assembly. If the PWI goes over 100, it throws up an alarm that stops production. However, waiting until that point for corrective action would result in some scrap. As a result, the system also calculates CpK, and users can designate a lower limit. Once the CpK number drops below the user-established limit, a warning alerts to the need for corrective action while the process is still in spec. Addressing Traceability Customers value robust traceability mechanisms for several reasons:
As illustrated above, drivers for traceability support are not limited to large-scale projects. Manual data collection can be time-consuming and costly. When a technology strategy also addresses likely customer traceability needs, data collection for even the most unique customer needs can be collected and stored automatically. At Clover Electronics, most customers only request lot traceability when necessary for a specific product, although internal systems support both lot and component date code traceability. Each product is serialized. A key enhancement in this contractor's traceability process is that not only do stored data include standard information such as date produced, revision level and the process specification in force at the time, they also include details on solder paste deposition and thermal profiles for that assembly (Figure 2). Questions such as "Was the process in control when this assembly was in the reflow oven?" are easily answered. For example, the last part of the barcode unique to assembly will indicate the profile used for the specific assembly with a date and time stamp. Time/temp profile, PWI number and peak temperature used are also logged for each assembly. Rapidly Addressing Manufacturing Issues Domestic EMS providers continue to remain competitive with solutions because speed, service and flexibility reduce customers' total cost of outsourcing. The best way to illustrate the benefits derived from a strong manufacturing technology strategy and strategic alliances with key suppliers is by discussing manufacturing issues and ways they were resolved. Example 1: NPI issues. A customer added a new product with a different board finish from other products in that family. The board finish deviation had been coordinated between the customer and PWB fabricator as the result of a tight design cycle. When production started, there were electrical test failures. The Clover team checked the stencil and called the paste and stencil manufacturers. The stencil supplier was able to identify a change in stencil thickness and amount of paste applied was the best solution for eliminating the electrical test failures. The solder paste deposition measurement system enabled the team to monitor paste height precisely on each board, and availability of those metrics reduced the time it took to troubleshoot the problem. Through the team effort, the issue was resolved in 2.5 days. Example 2: RoHS challenges. A customer with leaded boards that were not cost-effective to redesign now has to accept some RoHS components because leaded components are no longer available. This particular customer had received several recommendations by other suppliers for optimum processing of these mixed-technology assemblies. These recommendations included processing at Pb-free temperatures or running the assemblies at a temperature in between typical leaded and RoHS specifications. Clover was able to tap strategic alliances with its suppliers, which included outside consultants. The result: A paste expert, profiling expert and manufacturing expert were able to discuss potential options. The recommended solution was to either convert to 100% RoHS because the leaded BGA was obsolete, or manually place an RoHS-compliant BGA using a BGA reflow station. In response to the team's queries, the customer indicated it was experiencing higher field failures on assemblies reflowed at RoHS temperatures because the higher temperatures were overstressing the leaded components. The customer was able to initiate corrective action across the entire supply base. Example 3: Product quality issues on complex assemblies. A customer wished to cut costs on an older product. The original design included a number of wire harnesses soldered directly to the board. The redesign used connectors, which created more potential heat sinks during reflow. The process optimization software helped address this issue in the thermal profiling stage. The EMS industry has done an excellent job of demonstrating its value in the product realization cycle. As a result, OEM customers have high expectations for service and support. Teaming with materials and equipment suppliers and engineering consulting firms is one way to cost-effectively increase breadth of expertise. Developing repeatable, consistent processes with automatic monitoring at key points is another way to eliminate hidden costs and better leverage existing production resources. Strategies that combine these elements enhance quality and ensure complex customer requirements are met. Bibliography

By KLR Wanderer
from Westfield, IN
I liked this chain. I installed it on a buddy's bike. It comes with great factory lubrication and apparent good quality. I gave it 4 stars because I'm not a huge fan of riveted master links. Also, I couldn't find anything stating what the rivet flare should be for the rivets. I went with the middle of the road measurement and hope it is correct.
