This document introduces DIGIWISE, a 24/7 online market research community platform in Thailand called INTAGE. It allows interactive discussions among respondents in real-time on any device. Some key benefits highlighted include conducting qualitative and quantitative research simultaneously with the same respondents, saving time, observing unconscious insights through less direct questioning, and gaining instantaneous insights into real media consumption and decision making. It also introduces several representatives from INTAGE, including their roles and backgrounds.
This document describes the career opportunities and fellowship training available in pediatric infectious diseases. It discusses what a career as a pediatric infectious disease specialist entails, including treating various infections and allocating time to patient care, research, and prevention work. The fellowship program at Baylor College of Medicine and Texas Children's Hospital provides extensive clinical experience, research opportunities, didactic instruction, and supervision to prepare fellows for an academic or clinical career in this specialty. There are diverse career paths within pediatric infectious diseases and the fellowship offers superb training.

The document discusses the implementation of RDA (Resource Description and Access) for special materials in German-speaking countries. It outlines the organizational structure for coordinating RDA among libraries, archives, and museums. Working groups have been formed to provide RDA guidance for specific material types like literary archives, old books, and manuscripts. The challenges of applying RDA to rare and unique items are also examined, such as how to catalog multiple copies of the same work. The document concludes that RDA does not need full integration of special rules, and cultural institutions should collaborate to provide quality metadata across standards.
This document provides detailed specifications and dimensions for a tracked excavator. It includes information on the excavator's operating weight, engine power, hydraulic system, undercarriage, swing system, cab features, and bucket/attachment compatibility. Dimensional data is provided for the excavator body and various attachments in both metric and imperial units. Performance specs are given for digging reach, digging depth, dumping height, and tearout forces depending on attachment configuration.

The document provides background information on Charles Dickens and his works. It discusses the Victorian period in England during which Dickens wrote. It then summarizes the plots and characters of three of Dickens' novels: A Tale of Two Cities, David Copperfield, and the social criticism found in his later works as England underwent a deep economic crisis. The document uses tables and lists to concisely outline the key people and events in the novels.

The Application of Game-Like Learning Design to Real-World Settings: a Holist...Benita Rowe
1) A German university implemented a game-like learning curriculum across multiple disciplines to address challenges in higher education including rising student diversity and dropout rates.
2) The curriculum frames learning as a real-time strategy game where students complete scaffolded tasks ("side quests") in teams, receiving ongoing feedback to guide their progress.
3) Assessments were reframed as a responsive feedback loop to continuously provide students with guidance on tasks, processes, and self-regulation similar to feedback in games.
The document discusses memorizing a list of 52 items for a memory exercise. It encourages the reader to be creative in how they memorize the items, such as imagining them in vivid colors or scenarios. It then provides the 16th through 29th items to add to the first 15 items from a previous list. The reader is reminded to take their time memorizing all 52 items.

7. HOW TO USE 5/5
1. Once the jewels are cleant, carefully close the container with the
provided cover. It is airtight so it doesn’t matter if the container
falls upside down. Let the liquid rest for a few hours. One can
observe a deposit at the bottom. These are small dirts from the
cleant jewels.
2. Pour carefully the clear liquid in another container without
shaking it. Throw awa the deposit, rince and dry up the container.
Transfer the HOSEKI concentrate back in its container.
3. You can use the liquid again to clean other jewels or keep it for
the next use.
Eventually, you will still have to change the HOSEKI liquid when you notice that it
doesn’t become clear anymore even after a few hours of rest.
To keep your HOSEKI concentrate longer, here are some tips:
8. IMPORTANT
- Keep the device away from the container with the HOSEKI
concentrate when it’s ON, it is recommended to place the device on a
higher level than the container.
- Unplug the transformer as soon as the cleaning is done.
- Rinse well the hook and the steel rod with water after each use.
- Store all the accessories only when they are dry.
- ONLY use the HOSEKI concentrate with the HOSEKI device. Any
other liquid (particularly the ones for the ultra-sound devices) may
gravely damage the jewels.
9. WARNING
- Never submerge the HOSEKI device or put it in contact with
any liquid.
- Do not drink the HOSEKI concentrate, whether pure or not.
- Keep the device and the liquid out of reach of children
- This is not a toy but a tool for professionals. Therefore, the HOSEKI device
must be handled by professionals ONLY.
10. REMINDERS 1/4
- A 250 ml bottle of HOSEKI concentrate supplies 60 to 120 days
even for an intensive use of the HOSEKI machine. As a
consequence, the cost of each cleaning is very low.
- HOSEKI is odorless and does not make any noise. It is
therefore a perfect fit for a use in your store.
- HOSEKI concentrate does not stain.
- The HOSEKI device is equipped with its own breaker in case
the steel rod and the hook would be in contact. In this case, it is
not required to reboot the device, the cleaning will resume
automatically.
11. REMINDERS 2/4
The warning lights:
- Orange (d) : proceeding (about 10s for one cycle)
- Green (e) : device connected
- Red (f) : trouble. Turn off and turn back on the device
- The provided container is totally airtight, even when it’s
upside down.
- The hook where the jewels are hang is made in silver. It
is flexible and can be easily bent. Handle with care.
12. REMINDERS 3/4
- The HOSEKI device cleans gold as well as
platinum, silver and plated gold.
- The HOSEKI device doesn’t make any ultra-
sounds, therefore it cannot unseal nor damage any
stones or crystal inlays.
- The electrolysis from the HOSEKI device requires a
pH of 9.5 (a toothpaste has a pH of 10). It means it
is slightly alcaline et cannot damage any stone
such as lapis lazuli, turquoise, coral and pearls.
- The HOSEKI device gives great results on
diamonds, emeralds and ruby.
13. REMINDERS 4/4
- The device is delivered with an alligator clip
which can be used with items that can’t be
hang on the silver hook.
- During the process, it is absolutely normal to
notice some bubbles around the hook and
the jewel.
- The HOSEKI device has a 1-year warranty
