Reviews the video, This one moment: Skills for everyday mindfulness by M. M. Linehan (2003). Marsha Linehan is well known as the developer of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), a comprehensive treatment for borderline personality disorder (BPD). In "This One Moment," Linehan explains, with easy-to-follow and creative examples, how to be more fully in the present. She divides her instructions into
Popular Abstract in Swedish Även om vi i dagens samhälle försöker minska vårt beroende av förbränningsprocesser är förbränning fortfarande vår största energikälla och förväntas så förbli under en lång tid. Därför är det viktigt att effektivisera förbränningsprocesserna för att maximera den energi som utvinns medan utsläppen samtidigt minimeras. En av de oönskade biprodukterna vid förbränning är soThis work has been aimed at developing and applying laser-induced incandescence (LII) for flame soot characterization. The basic principle of LII is rapid heating of the soot particles to temperatures of 3500-4000 K by short laser pulses. Thereby the intensity of the soot incandescence is increased. By detection of this increased incandescence and analysis of the detected signal, the volume fracti
A new method for QRST cancellation is presented for the analysis of atrial fibrillation in the surface electrocardiogram (ECG). The method is based on a spatiotemporal signal model which accounts for dynamic changes in QRS morphology caused, e.g., by variations in the electrical axis of the heart. Using simulated atrial fibrillation signals added to normal ECGs, the results show that the spatiotem
This environmental audit report was completed after an environmental audit of the Baltijsk municipality in the District of Kaliningrad, Russia, during the 10th and 11th of April 2000. The report is a joint effort of 31 students from 23 countries, who are participants of the International Master’s Programme “Master of Science in Environmental Management and Policy ” at the International Institute
Drugs of abuse testing is used in various areas of society for detection and follow-up of drug use. In routine laboratory drug testing, immunoassays are employed for initial screening of specimens to indicate the presence of drugs. To confirm a positive screening test, a secondary analysis by mass spectrometry is performed. The »cut-off« is the pre-defined concentration threshold of a drug or drug
Clinical diagnosis of acute mesenteric ischemia is difficult. The aim of this review is to provide current status on the search for an accurate plasma biomarker for acute mesenteric ischemia. A search using the medical subject heading terms marker and mesenteric ischemia or intestinal ischemia or superior mesenteric artery occlusion or mesenteric venous thrombosis in the Medline and Embase databas

A statistical study of data containing observations of process and quality variables from the SCA paper mill in Munksund, Sweden, is presented. The emphasis in this analysis has been on modelling the laboratory collected paper quality variables by means of the data available on-line, during production. The primary tool for prediction, or estimation at non observed time instants, of variables was
In this paper, we study the problem of joint permutor analysis and design for J-dimensional multiple turbo codes with J constituent encoders, J>2. The concept of summary distance is extended to multiple permutors of size N and used as the design metric. Using the sphere-packing concept, we prove that the minimum length-2 summary distance (spread) Dmin,2 is asymptoticly upper-bounded by O(N J-1/J).
Substituted aminomethylphenol dyes, low-molecular-mass isoelectric point (pI ) markers and hemoglobin samples from normal individuals and diabetic patients were used to test a new set-up of capillary isoelectric focusing (cIEF) in uncoated capillaries. In previous cIEF methods, a mixture of sample components and carrier ampholytes was applied in the capillary and analyzed. In the new set-up a frac
Various biological problems such as disease mechanisms, drug development and toxicological studies motivated the introduction of cellular models that today also represent an alternative for reducing the use of animals in controversial medical and pharmaceutical experiments. Cells are complex matrices where several processes occur simultaneously. Because of this, analytical methods with specific p
