Update No. 2. Continued heavy rainfall in the wake of Super-Typhoon Usagi in Taiwan, Philippines, Hong Kong and coastal China. Thousands being evacuated
El documento describe la arquitectura cliente-servidor. Explica que consiste en separar las aplicaciones en dos componentes: el cliente, que gestiona la interfaz de usuario, y el servidor, que gestiona los recursos compartidos como bases de datos. Esta arquitectura permite distribuir aplicaciones de forma flexible en entornos heterogéneos.

The document summarizes the National Guidelines Clearinghouse (NGC), a freely accessible database of evidence-based clinical practice guidelines maintained by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. It provides instructions on how to search NGC, including entering keywords and limiting searches by target population age. While NGC has the benefit of freely accessible, rigorously accepted guidelines, it also has limited content and search capabilities. Contact information is provided for medical librarians available to assist with searches that have not found relevant results after 20 minutes.
Virtual embedding of library resources and services has evolved from physical embedding within institutions to virtual embedding within online environments used by patrons. A review found libraries have embedded resources like reading lists and link resolvers within course management systems and department websites. Services like reference and interlibrary loan have been provided via email, phone and chat. Moving forward, the review suggests embedding more library services directly within electronic medical records, mobile apps, internal networks and databases through tools like buttons and search filters to reach patrons virtually. The future may include librarians embedded using communication tools like Twitter, Facebook and instant messaging to help patrons within their own online spaces.
TOWARDS GLOBAL DISASTER RESILIENCE:
Step 1: Integrating Today’s Global Knowledge Into Global Books of Knowledge
Step 2: From Today’s Books of Knowledge to Innovative Capacity Building
Step 3: From Today’s Paradigm to Tomorrow’s
Research provides needed evidence to advocate for strong laws and programs to combat gender-based violence. Yet research capacity is lagging in many parts of the world including Africa. In response, ICRW, the Gender-based Violence Prevention Network and the South African Medical Research Council undertook a capacity building program that paired NGOs with research institutions in the region. Our experience shows that partnering violence prevention organizations with researchers has strengthened the formers’ skills to carry out relevant action research, and directed evidence into the hands of those best positioned to use it, namely activists and program implementers.
The Southern Nevada Health District identified a cluster of Hepatitis C cases linked to procedures at an endoscopy center in January 2008. This led to the largest disease notification operation in U.S. history as over 50,000 patients of the clinic were notified of their potential exposure. The health district conducted an investigation that included collecting questionnaires from exposed patients about their medical history and testing results. Over 7,000 questionnaires were processed and organized. The investigation identified two source cases of Hepatitis C transmission related to procedures at the clinics in July and September 2007. In total, 101 cases of Hepatitis C were classified as possibly associated with one of the clinics.
We continue to operate with a flawed premise: knowledge from earthquake disasters, which occur annually on a global scale, is enough to make any nation susceptible to earthquakes adopt and implement policies that will facilitate its own disaster resilience. Fact: it usually takes multiple earthquake disasters before a stricken nation will adopt and implement policies that move it towards earthquake disaster resilience. Fact: most unaffected nations don’t even try to learn anything new from another nation’s earthquake disasters and certainly don’t consider them to be a basis for changing existing policies. Pillars of earthquake disaster resilience: preparedness
adoption and implementation of a modern earthquake engineering building code; realistic earthquake disaster scenarios; timely emergency response (including emergency medical services); cost-effective reconstruction & recovery. The challenge: policy changes: create, adjust, and realign programs, partners and people until you have created the kinds of turning points needed for moving towards earthquake disaster resilience.

The Chaparrastique volcano, which is located in the San Miguel municipality about 140 km (87 miles) east of San Salvador, the capital, spewed ash over a wide area known for its coffee plantations. After erupting 26 times in the last 500 years, Chaparrastique is considered the most active of El Salvador’s 23 active volcanoes. THE KEYS TO RESILIENCE and recovery from volcanic disasters: 1) know the eruptive history of your region’s volcanoes; 2) be prepared; 3) have a warning system; 4) evacuate; 5) learn from the experience and start over

The most powerful typhoon of the 2013 season approached the northern Philippines and southern Taiwan on Friday (Sept. 20) with wind reaching 300 kph (184 mph) and torrential rain. The death toll now stands at 475 and is expected to increase dramatically in the days to come. Usagi has a diameter of 1,100 kilometers (660 miles), with outer rain bands extending across the main northern Philippine island of Luzon and southern Taiwan. Forecasters predict 24-hour rainfall accumulation of 500 millimeters (nearly 20 inches) near its center. Presentation courtesy of Dr Walter Hays, Global Alliance for Disaster Reduction
Each disaster is an opportunity to add to the “global book of knowledge” on occurrences, consequences, and disaster risk reduction measures. 2014--2020 is a good time for a global surge in educational, technical, health care, and political capacity building in all five pillars of community disaster resilience. All past disasters demonstrate the urgency of becoming disaster resilient. Premise: a disaster on the same scale should never happen twice in a community.
