An example of risk management on board a cruise ship: COVID-19

The COVID-19 outbreak in 2020 is still giving impacts to world economy and crisis management system. My cruise ship sailed from Yokohama in Jan 17 2020 to round Asian Cruise with 300 aged passengers and 200 crews under beginning of emergency situation. As a reference of crisis management and human behaviour, designated in STCW convention STCW section V/2 par. 3-4 and is based on the guidelines of IMO Model Course 1.29, I introduce my experience featuring leadership of crisis management of anti-infectious disease of COVID 19 as a captain of cruise ship. The objective of this paper is to suggest that methodology based on leader’s humanism leads better or best results of risk management

Polyominoes and Polyiamonds as Fundamental Domains of Isohedral Tilings with Rotational Symmetry

We describe computer algorithms that produce the complete set of isohedral tilings by n-omino or n-iamond tiles in which the tiles are fundamental domains and the tilings have 3-, 4-, or 6-fold rotational symmetry. The symmetry groups of such tilings are of types p3, p31m, p4, p4g, and p6. There are no isohedral tilings with symmetry groups p3m1, p4m, or p6m that have polyominoes or polyiamonds as fundamental domains. We display the algorithms' output and give enumeration tables for small values of n. This expands on our earlier works (Fukuda et al 2006, 2008)

Photoinduced rotamerization and dissociation of o-fluorobenzoyl chloride in solid Ar

UV light-induced reactions of o-fluorobenzoyl chloride (FBC) were investigated using infrared spectroscopy in a cryogenic Ar matrix. Photoinduced rotational isomerization from anti- to gauche-FBC was confirmed by comparison with calculated spectra. In addition, photolysis products were found to be ketene species (6-chloro-2-fluoro-2,4-cyclohexadien-1-ylidenemethanone), o-fluorobenzoyl radical, o-chlorofluorobenzene, m-chlorofluorobenzene and CO.ArticleCHEMICAL PHYSICS LETTERS. 613:34-39 (2014)journal articl

Local knowledge of the Mekong giant catfish at the Sirikit Dam Reservoir, Northern Thailand

December 13-14, 2006, Siam City Hotel, Bangkok, ThailandSome 103, 276 hatchery-reared Mekong giant catfish have been released into the Sirikid dam reservoir from 1984 to 2006. Local knowledge of the catfish was assessed from two fishermen at the reservoir in December 2006 and March 2007. Both fishermen used a gill net to capture the Mekong giant catfish. The experience of one fisherman suggests that the catfish might move around the old channel in the reservoir. The Mekong giant catfish captured in this reservoir by the other fisherman varied from 40 to more than 100 kg in weight. This suggests that the Mekong giant catfish might have grown greatly in the Sirikit dam reservoir and have been a fishery resource around the Sirikid dam reservoir basin

Association between gefitinib and hemorrhagic cystitis and severely contracted bladder: a case report

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Gefitinib remains an excellent treatment option for patients with a variety of cancers, including non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, clinicians must be aware of the potential of gefitinib to cause an inflammatory reaction in the skin, lungs and bladder.</p> <p>Case Presentation</p> <p>We present a case on hemorrhagic cystitis and severaly contracted bladder in a patient with NSCLC on gefitinib.</p> <p>Conclusions</p> <p>Further studies are needed to substantiate the association of gefitinib therapy with hemorrhagic cystitis and contracted bladder.</p

Beyond Keywords

The potential of social media to give insight into the dynamic evolution of public conversations, and into their reactive and constitutive role in political activities, has to date been underdeveloped. While topic modeling can give static insight into the structure of a conversation, and keyword volume tracking can show how engagement with a specific idea varies over time, there is need for a method of analysis able to understand how conversations about societal values evolve and react to events in the world by incorporating new ideas and relating them to existing themes. In this article, we propose a method for analyzing social media messages that formalizes the structure of public conversations and allows the sociologist to study the evolution of public discourse in a rigorous, replicable, and data-driven fashion. This approach may be useful to those studying the social construction of meaning, the origins of factionalism and internecine conflict, or boundary-setting and group-identification exercises and has potential implications.
