    Sherry Gillespie Miller, RN, MSN, was Director of Nursing for Pediatric and Maternal Infant Nursing in 1989. She begins her interview by describing the days leading up to Hurricane Hugo’s landfall. She discusses the decisions made by Children’s Hospital nursing directors and administrators to ensure the safety of patients and staff. She describes boarding up the windows in both the neonatal intensive care and pediatric intensive care units. Miller describes how she and her staff maintained patient care throughout the storm. For example, evacuating patients from their rooms into the hallways because of fear of windows shattering, and helping NICU patients breathe using hand ventilators. She also describes the evacuation of adult patients out of the main hospital into the Children’s Hospital because of power outages. The interview includes discussions on staff and patients’ reactions to the storm, damage sustained by the hospital, recovery efforts, and Miller’s thoughts on MUSC’s disaster planning

    Modern pollution signals in sediments from Windermere, NW England, determined by micro-XRF and lead isotope analysis

    No full text
    High resolution geochemical (Itrax micro-XRF and wavelength dispersive XRF) data, radiochronology (210Pb and 137Cs analyses) and ultra-high precision double-spike lead isotope measurements from lacustrine sediment cores are used in combination with historical research of former mining landscapes to investigate modern pollution signals in sediments from Windermere, the largest lake in the English Lake District. The sediment record suggests that while most element concentrations have been stable, there has been a significant increase since the 1930s in lead, zinc and copper concentrations. Double-spike lead isotope measurements reveal a mixture of natural lead, and three major contributory sources of anthropogenic (industrial) lead, comprising gasoline lead, coal combustion lead (from coal-fired steam ships) and lead derived from Carboniferous Pb–Zn mineralisation (mining activities). A number of up-system sediment traps have limited the amount of mining related heavy metals entering Windermere, and as a result, periods of metal workings do not correlate with peaks in heavy metals. Increases could also be due to flood-induced metal inwash or weathering of bedrock in the catchment. Application of these non-destructive and high precision analytical techniques provides new insights into the pollutant depositional history of Windermere

    Author Co-Citation Analysis (ACA): a powerful tool for representing implicit knowledge of scholar knowledge workers

    No full text
    In the last decade, knowledge has emerged as one of the most important and valuable organizational assets. Gradually this importance caused to emergence of new discipline entitled ―knowledge management‖. However one of the major challenges of knowledge management is conversion implicit or tacit knowledge to explicit knowledge. Thus Making knowledge visible so that it can be better accessed, discussed, valued or generally managed is a long-standing objective in knowledge management. Accordingly in this paper author co- citation analysis (ACA) will be proposed as an efficient technique of knowledge visualization in academia (Scholar knowledge workers)

    Richard Nathaniel (R.N.) Hogan Interview - Tape 1

    Richard Nathaniel Hogan (1902 –1997) R.N. Hogan was born in Monroe County, Arkansas. He was adopted by G.P. Bowser and attended the school at Silver Point for a brief time and then the Southern Practical Institute in Nashville. When the Bowser family moved to Louisville, Kentucky, he went with them and finished school there. His preaching took him to most of the fifty states and he was instrumental in starting many congregations. In the interview, he talks about his evangelistic work, particularly in Texas, Oklahoma, California, and Chicago. He was minister of the Figeroa Church of Christ in Los Angeles, California, for many years. Hogan was instrumental in the founding of Southwestern Christian College in Terrell, Texas, and served on the Board of Directors. He is the author of several books and articles, including Sermons (1940), and was editor of the Christian Echo beginning in 1953. A scholarship has been established in his name at Pepperdine University. In the interview, Hogan talks about the experience of his family with slavery, black and white relations in the beginning of some African American churches, his early memories of the Church, inter-racial relations, and disputes in the Church concerning the role of the Elders

    Constructing tree decompositions of graphs with bounded gonality

    No full text
    In this paper, we give a constructive proof of the fact that the treewidth of a graph is at most its divisorial gonality. The proof gives a polynomial time algorithm to construct a tree decomposition of width at most k, when an effective divisor of degree k that reaches all vertices is given. We also give a similar result for two related notions: stable divisorial gonality and stable gonality.Accepted author manuscriptDiscrete Mathematics and Optimizatio
