Application and Use of Multivariate Control Charts In a BTA Deep Hole Drilling Process
Deep hole drilling methods are used for producing holes with a high length-to-diameter ratio, good surface finish and straightness. The process is subject to dynamic disturbances usually classified as either chatter vibration or spiralling. In this paper, we will focus on the application and use of multivariate control charts to monitor the process in order to detect chatter vibrations. The results showed that chatter is detected and some alarm signals occurs at time points which can be connected to physical changes of the process. --

Abstract
The purpose of this study is to know Theist Representation In Song Lyrics Syair Manunggal Karya Music Group Cupumanik. The research used is constructivist paradigm with qualitative approach. The analysis was assessed using Roland Barthes's semiotics research method. This method emphasizes the meaning of denotation, connotation, and myth. Furthermore, the author adds with the findings of meaning that lead to the theis representation contained in the lyrics written by Cupumanik. From the data examined through the semiotics of Barthes, there are several results, namely: the meaning of denotation which shows a belief in godly understanding and believes in the existence of which is represented by the temple of reff on this song. For an analysis of the meaning of connotation, the songwriter wants to make this song a self-reflection for his attempts to climb spirituality and embrace 'Him' which can not be explained by anything by using the sense and awareness that exist in man. In the myth analysis, the myth that built the Myths understood by society and became the concept of society is that believing and believing in the presence of God is a must in life, in order to be grateful for all the favors and creations of God.

Ethical Issues
The author maintains that consideration of ethical issues from a
nursing perspective must acknowledge that the multiple roles of the nurse as
hospital employee, assistant to the physician, and patient advocate result in
conflicting obligations and loyalties and in problems of conscience. Theis
argues that such conflicts produce moral anguish for nurses, particularly for
those in intensive care units, newborn nurseries, or nursing homes. She cites
three cases where nurses felt obligated to act against authority and where the
ultimate involvement of the law resulted in damage to all concerned. She
points out that, because nurses possess a special understanding of the burdens
and benefits of treatment to patients, they should be involved in decision
making to promote the patient's autonomy, dignity, and best interests. (KIE

SAS: Højt at flyve, dybt at falde: - et projekt om værdier og forandring
This study discusses the changes we can identify in SAS’ work with corporate values and the consequences SAS employees experience hereof. During SAS’ turnaround 2005 strategy, they performed a massive economic efficiency and the corporate values was likely to change wich can have some negative consequences for the SAS employee. This project is based on theory from Peter Mejlby work with value management, Richard Barrett's conceptualization of the personal consequences working under corpoate value management and Habermas' theory concerning the public sphere colonization of the communitative rationality in life. We have identified change in SAS Group's values through their annual reports from 2000 to 2005 and in that connection through our interviews illustrated what impact this has on employees.This study discusses the changes we can identify in SAS’ work with corporate values and the consequences SAS employees experience hereof.

En quel sens l'«Unique fondement possible d'une démonstration de l'existence de Dieu» de Kant est-il «unique» fondement «possible»?
The author examines the sting inherent in the title of Kant's work on the Unique possible foundation of a demonstration of the existence of God, published in 1762. In this work, Kant admits not wanting to establish a formal demonstration of the existence of God, but only the foundations of such a demonstration. In this way, he develops less than a proof, but at the same time more, i.e. the unique possible foundation of such a proof. The author critically analyses that in this formula, obviously to a different extent, both the leibnizian proof starting from the possibles and the wolffian, so-called a posteriori proof, at a critical moment of their respective articulations, resort to a second argumentation in order to prove the existence of the necessary being and that they are thus not auto-sufficient (unique).L'auteur s'interroge sur la pointe que contient le titre de l'ouvrage kantien sur l'Unique fondement possible d'une démonstration de l'existence de Dieu paru en 1762. Kant y affirme, non pas vouloir établir une démonstration en forme de l'existence de Dieu, mais uniquement le fondement d'une telle démonstration. Dans ce sens, il développe moins qu'une preuve, mais en même temps plus, à savoir l'unique fondement possible d'une telle preuve. L'auteur montre que dans cette formulation sont visées de façon critique — à des titres différents certes — la preuve leibnizienne à partir des possibles et la preuve wolffienne dite a posteriori qui, toutes les deux, recourent, à un moment crucial de leurs articulations respectives, à une seconde argumentation pour démontrer l'existence de l'être nécessaire et qu'elles ne sont pas, de ce fait, auto-suffisantes (uniques).Theis Robert.

Discussion of 'Diagnostic curve for confined aquifer parameters from early drawdowns' by Sushil K. Singh
The determination of aquifer parameters is fundamental to groundwater resources assessment. This important topic has received much attention in the literature over many years. Singh (2008) presented a method for determination of parameters for an ideal confined aquifer, based on early drawdown data. The Theis well function (Theis 1935), the topic of interest here, arises as a core part of the analysis. It is, of course, essential that approximations to the Theis well function be robust and accurate so that reliable estimates of aquifer parameters are obtained. Two approximations for the Theis well function were presented by Singh (2008). The purposes of this discussion were (1) to examine these two approximations, in particular their relative error as reported by the author, and (2) to alert readers to an existing, easy-to-calculate approximation to the Theis well function.ECO
Vulnerability and Climate Change Adaptation in Rural Vietnam
This investigation analyses the relation between natural resource management practices and vulnerability in the process of adapting to climate change in Tam Thanh, a rural commune in mid- Central Vietnam. The concept of vulnerability is examined and divided into physical and social vulnerability. Physical vulnerability corresponds to external stress from natural hazards exacerbated by climate change. Social vulnerability is the ability of a given group or individual to cope with and adapt to any external stress. Based on interviews with households the differences of social vulnerability are analysed through the Environmental Entitlements Framework and the Sustainable Livelihood Approach. We find that significant spatial and socio-economic differences exist in access to natural resources and endowments between the households, which result in unequal levels of social vulnerability. These differences are reinforced by the impacts of climate change which are characterised by increased intensity and frequency of typhoons and heavy rainfalls as well as prolonged periods of water scarcity. Natural resource management practices influence social vulnerability. Poorer households dependent on rice production are specifically vulnerable to water scarcity whereas wealthier households endowed with large plantations of production forest to a higher degree are impacted from typhoons. A diversification of income sources reduces the level of social vulnerability. However, alternative income sources beyond climate sensitive natural resources are lacking in the commune. The study concludes that a reduction of social vulnerability is essential for a successful adaptation to climate change.This investigation analyses the relation between natural resource management practices and vulnerability in the process of adapting to climate change in Tam Thanh, a rural commune in mid- Central Vietnam.
