    Basni: I.A. Krylova, With a Biography of the Author

    No full text
    The complete text of the fables is followed by a list after 298 of the fables arranged by the years in which they were written (1806-36) and then an alphabetical index. The volume is in fair to poor condition. The cover (cardboard boards) is worn and the spine damaged. There are about thirty-five good illustrations, signed by Panov and Braun or something very close to that, presumably the engraver. I do not have many illustrated editions of Krylov. Among the best of the illustrations here are The Monkey and the Spectacles (26), FK (37), Monkey (83), The Lion A-Hunting (133), The Knight (155), Lion and Wolf (158), Wolf and Shepherds (178), Ass and Rustic (190), Lambkin (210), and Squirrel (253). The set of texts seems to fit perfectly with Pares' standard edition. There is a Russian bookseller's label on the inside front cover.This is a hardbound book (hard cover)Language note: Russian18th complete editionUnder the editorship of V. Kenevic

    Implementation of the I.S. EN 16001:2009 energy management standard into GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) Ltd, Cork

    No full text
    As manufacturers face an increasingly competitive environment, they seek out opportunities to reduce production costs without negatively affecting the yield or the quality of their finished products. The challenge of maintaining high product quality while simultaneously reducing production costs can often be met through investments in energy efficient technologies and energy efficiency practices. Energy management systems can offer both technological and best practice efficiencies in order to achieve substantial savings. A strong energy management system provides a solid foundation for an organisation to reduce production costs and improve site efficiency. The I.S EN16001 energy management standard specifies the requirements for establishing, implementing, maintaining and improving an energy management system and represents the latest best practice for energy management in Ireland. The objective of the energy management system is to establish a systematic approach for improving energy performance continuously. The I.S EN16001 standard specifies the requirements for continuous improvement through using energy more efficiently. The author analysed how GlaxoSmithKline’s (GSK) pharmaceutical manufacturing facility in Cork implemented the I.S. EN16001 energy management system model, and defined how energy saving opportunities where identified and introduced to improve efficiency performance. The author performed an extensive literature research in order to determine the current status of the pharmaceutical industry in Ireland, the processes involved in pharmaceutical manufacturing, the energy users required for pharmaceutical manufacturing and the efficiency measures that can be applied to these energy users in order to reduce energy consumption. The author then analysed how energy management standards are introduced to industry and critically analysed the driving factors for energy management performance in Ireland through case studies. Following an investigation as to how the I.S. EN16001 energy management standard is operated in GSK, a critical analysis of the performance achieved by the GSK energy management system is undertaken in order to determine if implementing the I.S EN16001 standard accelerates achieving energy savings. Since its introduction, the I.S. EN16001 model for energy management has enabled GSK to monitor, target and identify energy efficiency opportunities throughout the site. The model has put in place an energy management system that is continuously reviewed for improvement and to date has reduced GSK’s site operations cost by over 30% through technical improvements and generating energy awareness for smarter energy consumption within the GSK Cork site. Investment in I.S. EN16001 has proved to be a sound business strategy for GSK especially in today's manufacturing environment

    Oncological care for the patients with hepatocellular carcinoma in COVID-19 pandemic

    On April 27, 2020, COVID-19 pandemic affected more than 2, 5 million of people in more than 200 countries and caused 185 000 deaths. Healthcare systems have come under enormous stress. In COVID-19 pandemic oncological patients face two serious challenges: the risk of severe infectious disease course and the risk of malignant tumor progression. Forced correction of existing oncological standards of care is based on expert and professional community opinions, and daily gaining experience. The issue resumes the data on COVID-19 influence on liver function among the patients with chronic liver diseases and hepatocellular carcinoma. The guidance on HCC management in COVID-19 pandemic are provided. More than 1, 5 million of people suffers from the liver pathology caused by chronic virus hepatitis, alcohol consumption, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. Mild COVID-19 is often followed by transient liver function disorder which do not need specific treatment. Severe COVID-19 lids to the increase of aspartate aminotransferase (AST) and gamma-glutamyltransferase (GGT), to the decrease of serum albumin in most cases. Regarding the HCC treatment preference should be given to telemedicine, limitation of contacts in health-care facilities, outpatient treatment, including oral medication (tyrosine kinase inhibitors), and if possible delay of invasive procedures with the help of bridge-therapy and active monitoring. Selecting the patients for surgery, ablation or transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) patients with minimal risk of decompensation, with maximum treatment benefit (on the base of prognostic scales), with lack of comorbid should be preferred. Selective and super selective TACE with drug-eluting beads or radioembolization should be used to reduce the risk of immunosuppression and postembolic syndrome. Live organ transplantation should be considered to be postponed. Targeted therapy could be a temporarily alternative to invasive procedures. © 2020, Remedium Group Ltd. All rights reserved

    The Princess in the Castle: Challenging Serious Game Play for Integrated Policy Analysis and Planning

    No full text
    What are the principles that make societal problems socio-technically complex? And, even more important, how can we support public policymaking in the wake of socio-technical complexity? In The Princess in the Castle, the author investigates if, why and how serious games and game-like simulations (SGs) can support integrated policy making and planning, especially in relation to managing rivers and oceans. She argues that ‘playful methods’ are particularly suited to surround sophisticated analysis with extensive participation. The book contains many examples and illustrations but centres on: the Climate Game, used in a neighbourhood reconstruction project incorporating climate adaptation measures; The Blokkendoos Planning Kit, used in the Netherlands’ planning project Room for the River for integrated flood management; the MSP Challenge, used to further the development of integrated, eco-system based marine spatial planning. The book provides a de- and re-construction of the ‘principles of play’ that underlying integrated policy analysis. The perceived usefulness of game-like tools in the Dutch and Chinese policy contexts is empirically studied. The author concludes that serious games for policy-making and planning are powerful methods with largely untapped potential. Yet, without room to play they can be easily turn into ineffective and expensive toys. Qiqi Zhou is a researcher at Delft University of Technology, the Netherlands.
