Report on Meteorological Research March 1, 1935 (m-1)
No full textThe object of the report was to elucidate in detail the various features of the research program in meteorology being carried on at the Daniel Guggenheim Airship Institute in Akron, Ohio. Mr. L. J. Fangman, of the U.S. Weather Bureau, was collaborating with the author in carrying out work such as a study of autographic records of the various meteorological elements during frontal passages with a view to the possible prediction of the intensity of the accompanying disturbance as it may affect the operation of aircraft and a study of atmospheric gustiness with a view to finding the dependence between frequency end amplitude of velocity fluctuations and the vertical temperature and velocity gradients
Overcoming cognitive bias through intellectual capital management
No full textIntellectual Capital as the sum of Human, Structural, and Relational Capital is among the key resources for an organization to produce value. However, knowledge as an intellectual resource may show a dark side. Human Capital, for instance, is often affected by cognitive bias coming from knowledge and beliefs. Cognitive bias may negatively affect decision-making processes. Bias may be dangerous in all fields. However, the situation can be particularly critical in medicine, where statistics state how up to 75% of all clinical errors are of cognitive origins. The chapter aims at investigating if and how intangibles management can help to overcome cognitive bias. The work employs a case study approach analyzing BACRI, a digital platform in the field of pediatric medicine. BACRI, which stands for "Critical Child" in Italian, allows identifying young patients at risk who need immediate care. The case study shows how the joint effect of Structural Capital, Human Capital, and Relational Capital is the key to the overcoming of cognitive bias, in a virtuous circle. Intangibles management can so limit the dark side of knowledge
(Fourth) Report on Meteorological Activities at the DGAI (8-1-36)(Weather Bureau Copy)
No full textThis report is on the investigations of frontal phenomena at the Daniel Guggenheim Airship Institute in Akron, Ohio from January 1, 1935 through August 1, 1936. The investigation was carried out with the cooperation of the U.S. Bureau of Aeronautics, the U.S. Weather Bureau, the California Institute of Technology, and the Guggenheim Airship Institute. Mr. R.C. Robinson of the Weather Bureau cooperated with the author in carrying out the investigation. The object of the investigation was to determine the intensity of the atmospheric disturbances (i.e. rapidity of wind shift and gustiness) accompanying the passage of cold fronts, along with a study of the characteristics of the air masses involved and other features which might affect the intensity of the disturbance. The report treated thirty cold fronts which passed the station during 1935 to 1936

Get PDFHow Genuino Applies Blockchain Technology in the Collectibles Industry
No full textThis chapter analyses the blockchain implemented by Genuino in the collectibles industry. Since collectibles are subject to high risk of counterfeiting and fake
replications, blockchain technology can help substantially to ensure transparency, originality, ownership, and data security and protection. Two methods to use
blockchain in the industry seem to be the most widespread today: creating digital native collectibles on blockchain and transposing physical objects into the blockchain by creating digital twins. By using blockchain, new consumer clusters emerge, highlighting the need to modernize both the traditional economies and the current business models

Get PDFabstract: Daniel was a little boy when the war came to his village. He witnessed people being shot and running for shelter. There was no food or water so he drank urine and ate tree leaves.
“Lost Boys Found” is an ongoing, interdisciplinary project that is collecting, recording and archiving the oral histories of the Lost Boys/Girls of Sudan. The collection is a work-in-progress, seeking to record the oral history of as many Lost Boys/Girls as are willing, and will be used in a future book.Age: 24Region: Upper NileThis picture and bio was donated to the "Lost Boys Found" oral history project from The Arizona Lost Boys Cente
The Impact of Digital Technologies on Company Restoration Time Following the COVID-19 Pandemic
Get PDFThe global spread of COVID-19 affected societies and economies at large with simultaneous disruptions to both supply and demand. To investigate the implications of COVID-19, this study seeks to inquire into how companies can achieve resilience through performance robustness and how this affects the restoration time (i.e., the time period from the problem occurrence to the time when the company performance returns to the previous operational level). Moreover, it studies how digital technology adoption allowed firms to become more resilient during the COVID-19 outbreak by exploiting high robustness and improving restoration time. Our findings reveal that, among the several performance indicators investigated, only the robustness of Sales is of particular significance in contributing to restoration time. As regards the technologies deployed, Blockchain, 3D Printing, and Artificial Intelligence had a positive impact on firms’ resilience during the outbreak
Daniel Emmett postcard
No full textPostcard of Daniel Emmett and his home in Mount Vernon, Ohio. Emmett is considered to be the author of the antebellum song "Dixie," written in 1859, which became the unofficial song of the Confederate soldiers during the American Civil War. He was born in Mount Vernon in 1815 and taught himself the fiddle, and later became associated with minstrel shows and helped to define that genre. Minstrel shows traveled around the United States, presenting skits and musical performances. Emmett also composed many other songs, including "Old Dan Tucker," "Turkey in the Straw," and "The Blue Tail Fly." He died in 1904
