Similar to other two-seater models of the Sukhoi company, the modifications feature a tandem two-seater cockpit, with the rear seat raised to provide some forward vision. Two-seater versionīased on this latest redesign, UAC presented the design of a “single-engine two-seater stealth aircraft”. The Sukhoi single-engine fighter was revealed two years ago at MAKS 2021 with the formal designation LTS (Lightweight Tactical Aircraft) and the nickname Checkmate. This could mean that either the side armament bays (where short-range air-to-air missiles would normally be housed) have been enlarged or that the amount of internal fuel that the Checkmate can carry has been increased… or both. There is also a modification to the fuselage that seems to increase the internal volume of the aircraft. On the other hand, the engine installation appears to have been slightly advanced. The event was streamed online on Youtube by Rostec, Russia’s. This is a digitally altered (to highlight the shape of the aircraft) composite image of the CheckMate. The Sukhoi Su-75 CheckMate, also known as the Light Tactical Aircraft, or LTS in Russian was formally unveiled at the opening of the MAKS international air show at Zhukovsky. It is the product of the PAK FA (Russian:, short for:, romanized: Perspektivnyy Aviatsionnyy Kompleks Frontovoy Aviatsii, lit. Sukhoi Su-75 CheckMate Credits: screenshot from Rostec live streaming. The most noticeable change is the modification to the wing, with respect to the model presented at MAKS-2021 and the Dubai Air Show 2021 (the only time the mockup was exhibited outside Russia), which features an extension and inclination of the trailing edge, increasing the wing area and, perhaps, slightly reducing the aircraft’s rear radar signature. Checkmate, new Sukhoi fifth-generation stealth fighter jet is seen during an opening ceremony of the MAKS-2021 air show in Zhukovsky. A prototype of Russia's new Sukhoi 'Checkmate' fighter is on display at the MAKS 2021 International Aviation and Space Salon, in Zhukovsky, outside Moscow, on July 20. The Sukhoi Su-57 (Russian: -57 NATO reporting name: Felon) is a twin-engine stealth multirole fighter aircraft developed by Sukhoi.

The -2 stars are for the design flaw, which, as other reviewers have noted, is that the tips are integrated into the hose and handle as a “stylus.” What this means is that, if the tip breaks off, as mine did on my first trip, the whole stylus apparatus must be replaced. Overall, this is a positive review, since I really like the Sidekick. TL DR: I would buy the Sidekick again and recommend it to others, but I also would recommend that buyers carry a tube of super glue when they travel in case the tip of the stylus breaks off. So if you have sensitive gums, or sensitive teeth, and you travel or you need a portable water flosser that's more compact than the original counterpart, THIS IS THE ONE. At 10 PMI, it absolutely matches the lowest pressure setting on the bigger Waterpik. Trust me I tried a few before coming across this one. or get unfriendly looks.Īll that said, it's got 5 pressure settings and the lowest setting truly is the LOWEST and the SOFTEST pressure setting I have ever tried. So if you use it in a public restroom, it might be worth running few short sprays first to not make people jump out of their toilet seats. But I suppose this makes sense because they have to fit so many parts into such a compact space to make it work. Next, know that this device is MUCH heavier the original Waterpik (the big one). put a paper towel between the countertop and the white piece. Of course, that white piece will catch whatever bacteria is on the sink countertop that it just rested on because it needs to be plugged when you use it. Putting it inside is the only way everything will fit into the travel bag it comes with. For those who intend to travel with this device, the white piece goes inside the water container after you are done using. Administrators who are afraid to speak up about problems for fear of ramifications often feel undervalued and experience decreased morale. C-suite leaders who are disheartened by problems with cashflow and inaccurate reimbursement may develop resentment toward lower-level staff. Physicians who are frustrated with EHR systems may be seen as complainers whose needs go unaddressed. Without healthy systems, individuals within an organization often work against one another. To achieve a healthy organization, you must have healthy systems that serve the needs of the staff – from the leadership to the clinical teams to the IT staff – and allow all departments to work in unison. The health of an organization is just as important as the health of the patients it serves. The Complete Quadruple Aim: Healthy Systems Rather, joy in work is the desired side effect of what I suggest is the true fourth component: Healthy Systems. However, demanding Joy in Work as the fourth element of the Quadruple Aim gets us nowhere closer to achieving the balance we need. At John Lynch & Associates, I have seen first-hand how a physician’s or clinician’s experience of joy in his or her work has a profound effect on all those touched by the organization. The Institute for Healthcare Improvement – the original masterminds behind the Triple Aim – are very near to the solution. The result was several iterations of a Quadruple Aim, many of which showed promise, but none of which solved the problems of the Triple Aim. Thankfully, the astute men and women in our industry noticed the problem quickly and individual organizations got to work hypothesizing what was missing from the Triple Aim. In essence, the very nature of the Triple Aim was undermining the purpose for which it was created. Ultimately, these factors corroded the primary goals of the Triple Aim by causing decreases in patient satisfaction, decreased health outcomes, and increased costs. The Triple Aim served us well in its time, but the result was physicians working long hours, frustration with EHR systems, and burnout. With these evolutions come waves of theoretical insights that serve to guide us toward best practices and optimal outcomes. We are constantly influenced on all sides by improved technology, more effective use of population health data and analytical tools, and incremental changes in healthcare policy. The Problem with the Triple AimĪs in any industry, healthcare goes through evolutions and upgrades over time. Rather, the fourth element of the Quadruple Aim is Healthy Systems, which allow every member of the organization – in addition to physicians and clinicians – to find joy in their work, perform to the tops of their licenses, and thrive. In order to achieve the Quadruple Aim, the definition of the fourth element must expand beyond the goal of improved physician and clinician work life. I tend to agree with Feeley while taking the discussion one step further. While other organizations insist that the fourth component is Equity or Organizational Readiness, Derek Feeley, President and CEO of the Institute for Healthcare Improvement, asserts it is Joy in Work that is missing from the equation. In recent years, talk has begun to circulate of a fourth element that could bring balance to the Triple Aim. Like a barstool without a seat, the legs of the Triple Aim appeared to balance precariously for a time before clattering to the ground. However, time and time again, healthcare organizations have observed that attempts to create the Triple Aim were falling short. Physicians Thomas Bodenheimer and Christine Sinsky said it perfectly: The Triple Aim is “a compass to optimize health system performance.” The long-admired Triple Aim encompasses three principles: enhancing patient experience, improving population health, and reducing costs. Quadruple Aim: The Missing Element for Optimal Outcomes February 19, 2019 This product is essentially spiced and salted bread crumbs not quite yet in crumb form, so I crushed it up and used it in the dish. Here you can see my changes to the recipe: pieces of zucchini in with the yellow squash, and bigger, uneven bread crumb sizes from crushed up turkey stuffing mix.Īlso due to it being January, I had in pantry half a bag of bread-based stuffing mix (good ol’ Pepperidge Farm brand), left to sit since Thanksgiving. This is the squash casserole in the pan before baking. That’s why you’ll see green among the toasty browns and yellows in these photos. So, diverging from anything my dad ever did, I went ahead and prepared this with some zucchini mixed in. Some of the yellow squashes looked a little overgrown to me, while the zucchini looked just perfect. It’s January, and I was inspired to cook this dish now by some very fresh-looking organically-grown summer squashes from Florida, in season at the grocery store. I’m a big believer in working with what I’ve got and what’s in season, and that’s what I did when putting together this squash casserole for the blog. What I Changed to Choose the Best Produce-and to Use Up Leftovers thyme makes a difference: dill gives a softer, sweeter, grassy flavor and thyme pushes the taste and aroma in a more earthy and herbal direction. The choice of herb to include changes the squash casserole, and I can’t predict which you’ll like best. Instead, what’s good about the flavor of summer squash is emphasized and amped up by the similar sharp and nutty flavors in the dairy products and toasty crumbs. Admittedly, you can take just about anything and surround it with butter, cheese, and bread crumbs and it will taste good.īut this isn’t an example of hiding vegetable flavor amid other flavors. I’m not a huge fan of summer squash, but there’s something magical here. This squash casserole is a kids’ favorite because of all the cheese and the crunchy, buttery bread crumbs, but I’ve enjoyed it, maybe for evolving reasons, from toddlerhood to middle age. You can also mix in some green or gold zucchini. Once they eat it, they always want to have the recipe!” For this recipe, use yellow crookneck, straight neck, or even a patty pan type as shown here. Today my father, Stephen, writes, “I have served this squash casserole not only to my family but to a variety of guests, and it is universally loved. Then he only made this casserole in the summer. My father says they sooner or later figured out that summer squash doesn’t freeze very well. We had a freezer in the basement and when the yellow crookneck and straightneck plants are cranking out the squashes like nobody’s business in July and August, my parents would cube, blanch, and freeze the squash so that we could enjoy this dish throughout the long Maine winter. My father grew up in Florida eating this dish, and I grew up eating it at my house in Maine. Yellow summer squash casserole is a classic southern side dish. For example, actinides with odd neutron number are usually fissile (fissionable with slow neutrons) while actinides with even neutron number are usually not fissile (but are fissionable with fast neutrons). It must be noted, especially nuclear cross-sections may vary by many orders from nuclide with the neutron number N to nuclide with the neutron number N+1. Properties of atomic nuclei (atomic mass, nuclear cross-sections) are determined by the number of protons and number of neutrons (neutron number). Neutron and Mass Numbers and Nuclear Properties For example, the neutron number of uranium-238 is 238-92=146. We can determine the neutron number of certain isotope. Therefore, we cannot determine the neutron number of uranium, for example. Each nuclide is denoted by chemical symbol of the element (this specifies Z) with tha atomic mass number as supescript. The various species of atoms whose nuclei contain particular numbers of protons and neutrons are called nuclides. Nuclides that have the same neutron number but a different proton number are called isotones. Neutron number is rarely written explicitly in nuclide symbol notation, but appears as a subscript to the right of the element symbol. The difference between the neutron number and the atomic number is known as the neutron excess: D = N – Z = A – 2Z. Neutron number plus atomic number equals atomic mass number: N+Z=A. The total number of neutrons in the nucleus of an atom is called the neutron number of the atom and is given the symbol N. Mass numbers of typical isotopes of Silicon are 28 29 30. Neutron Number and Mass Number of Silicon This fact has key implications for the building up of the periodic table of elements. The ordering of the electrons in the ground state of multielectron atoms, starts with the lowest energy state (ground state) and moves progressively from there up the energy scale until each of the atom’s electrons has been assigned a unique set of quantum numbers. It is the Pauli exclusion principle that requires the electrons in an atom to occupy different energy levels instead of them all condensing in the ground state. In the periodic table, the elements are listed in order of increasing atomic number Z. The number of electrons in each element’s electron shells, particularly the outermost valence shell, is the primary factor in determining its chemical bonding behavior. The configuration of these electrons follows from the principles of quantum mechanics. The chemical properties of the atom are determined by the number of protons, in fact, by number and arrangement of electrons. See also: Atomic Number – Does it conserve in a nuclear reaction? Atomic Number and Chemical PropertiesĮvery solid, liquid, gas, and plasma is composed of neutral or ionized atoms. It is the electrons that are responsible for the chemical bavavior of atoms, and which identify the various chemical elements. In a neutral atom there are as many electrons as protons moving about nucleus. The total electrical charge of the nucleus is therefore +Ze, where e (elementary charge) equals to 1,602 x 10 -19 coulombs. Total number of protons in the nucleus is called the atomic number of the atom and is given the symbol Z. The nucleus is composed of protons and neutrons. The atom consist of a small but massive nucleus surrounded by a cloud of rapidly moving electrons. Silicon is a chemical element with atomic number 14 which means there are 14 protons and 14 electrons in the atomic structure.

Figure 1: Cost of Poor Quality versus Sigma Level What is Six Sigma and How Does It Work? General Electric estimates that the gap between three or four sigma and Six Sigma was costing them between $8 billion and $12 billion per year. Companies operating at Six Sigma typically spend less than 5 percent of their revenues fixing problems (Figure 1). This is known as the cost of quality, or more accurately the cost of poor quality. Companies operating at three or four sigma typically spend between 25 and 40 percent of their revenues fixing problems. For non-Six Sigma companies, these costs are often extremely high and usually unknown. Unlike mindless cost-cutting programs which reduce value and quality as well as costs, Six Sigma identifies and eliminates costs which provide no value to customers, waste costs. Six Sigma focuses on improving customer loyalty, reducing errors, improving cycle times, and reducing costs by eliminating non-value added activities. Six Sigma focuses on improving quality (i.e., reduce waste) by helping organizations produce products and services better, faster and cheaper. The difference between potential and actual quality is waste. Actual quality is the current value added per unit of input. Potential quality is the known maximum possible value added per unit of input. Quality comes in two flavors: potential quality and actual quality. For Six Sigma purposes I define quality as the value added by a productive endeavor. To link this objective of Six Sigma with quality requires a new definition of quality. Six Sigma is about helping the organization make more money. Quality, defined traditionally as conformance to internal requirements, has little to do with Six Sigma. It would be a mistake to think that Six Sigma is about quality in the traditional sense. After Motorola won the Malcolm Baldrige National Quality Award in 1988 the secret of their success became public knowledge and the Six Sigma revolution was born. Today, Motorola is known worldwide as a quality leader. Motorola’s CEO at the time, Bob Galvin, started the company on the quality path known as Six Sigma and became a business icon largely as a result of what he accomplished in quality at Motorola. Eventually, even Motorola’s own executives had to admit “our quality stinks.”įinally, in the mid 1980s, Motorola decided to take quality seriously. They did this using the same workforce, technology, and designs, making it clear that the problem was Motorola’s management. Under Japanese management, the factory was soon producing TV sets with 1/20 th the number of defects they had produced under Motorola management. When a Japanese firm took over a Motorola factory that manufactured Quasar television sets in the United States in the 1970s, they promptly set about making drastic changes in the way the factory operated. Motorola came to Six Sigma because it was being consistently beaten in the competitive marketplace by foreign firms that were able to produce higher quality products at a lower cost. For Motorola, the originator of Six Sigma, the answer to the question “Why Six Sigma?” was simple: survival. The same ID should not be reused for other mail pieces for at least six months.

WhatsApp is available for free on the App Store. WhatsApp has also been running tests with a beta version for the iPad. With this free download, you easily and securely get instant access to all applications, desktops and data from any device, including smartphones, tablets, PCs and Macs. However, the Mac version is only a companion app, which means you still need a WhatsApp account set up on the phone to use it. Citrix Workspace app is the easy-to-install client software that provides seamless, secure access to everything you need to get work done. With the Mac app, WhatsApp users can access their account right from their computer even when their phone isn’t around. It’s worth noting that native apps also use fewer hardware resources, so they help save some battery life – which is great for MacBook users. While the old version is essentially a web app built with Electron, the new app is based on the iPhone version and has been ported to macOS with Catalyst technology.īecause of this, WhatsApp on the Mac now runs faster and gets the same features available on the iPhone, such as group audio and video calls. Tests with the new version of WhatsApp for macOS began in July last year. The Mac app has been merged with the iPhone app on the App Store, so it’s now a universal app with a single download link. The news was shared by the WhatsApp team (via MacMagazine), and according to Meta (which owns the platform), the new WhatsApp for macOS is now available “globally” on the Mac App Store. After V59, the archived chrome old version files are official Chrome offline installers. Then launch Google chrome with chrome.exe under the extraction folder. Just run the executable and extract the files under any folder on your hard drive. New WhatsApp for macOS available on the App Store The old versions of Chrome before V58 are packed as 7zip self-extracting executable. As of today, the native WhatsApp app for macOS is also available to download from the Mac App Store. This app was launched in August but was only available through the WhatsApp website. WhatsApp this year introduced a new version of its macOS app that was completely rebuilt from scratch to run natively on Mac computers. |
