Fuel Transformer Solid Oxide Fuel Cell

The following report documents the technical approach and conclusions made by Acumentrics Corporation during latest budget period toward the development of a low cost 10kW tubular SOFC power system. The present program, guided under direction from the National Energy Technology Laboratory of the US DOE, is a nine-year cost shared Cooperative Agreement totaling close to $74M funded both by the US DOE as well as Acumentrics Corporation and its partners. The latest budget period ran from January of 2006 through June 2006. Work focused on cell technology enhancements as well as BOP and power electronics improvements and overall system design. Significant progress was made in increasing cell power enhancements as well as decreasing material cost in a drive to meet the SECA cost targets. The following report documents these accomplishments in detail as well as the layout plans for further progress in next budget period

You Won\u27t Know Unless You Ask: The Biopsychosocial Interview for Adolescents

In order to impact morbidity and mortality of adolescents, the health care provider must not only determine the risk status of the teenager but also take time to provide appropriate guidance and interventions. We have developed the West Virginia University Adolescent Risk Score, which is more inclusive than similar screening techniques and requires an 3-minute interview. This format facilitates specific guidance, provides documentation of risk status, and is readily accessible on future visits. Our data provide the basis for planning and research regarding the effectiveness of interventions
