Improving Business Efficiency with CACT Training
ROCKLIN - Teams from two business units at the Sacramento Municipal Utility District (SMUD) recently completed Lean Fundamentals and Process Mapping training provided by the Sierra College Center for Applied Competitive Technologies (CACT).
Lean is a philosophy of creating more value for the customer by reducing wasted resources and increasing efficiencies. Process Mapping is a visual tool used to identify the steps required to accomplish a task with the goal of using the diagram to increase understanding of the actual process being used and identify opportunities for streamlining.
According to Gabe Lewall, in SMUD's Organization and Workforce Development department, the goal of the training was to provide employees with common language, tools and approaches to implement Lean methods at SMUD. "Our participants had different levels of experience with process improvement so the training provided an overarching view of Lean," said Lewall. "Staff also practiced creating process maps to understand a current process and develop an ideal future state map."
Sierra College CACT worked with SMUD to include a relevant case study for the training exercise. Employees drew diagrams showing the processes required from notification of an electricity outage to restoration of power. "As a result of training and process maps created by employees at the training, the teams are motivated to take this further, formalize the maps electronically and work together to reduce redundancies," said Lewall.
"Feedback from participants has been very positive. The Lean training provided a solid foundation that will enable employees to be more consistent in their approach and work together to deliver quality service," said Lewall.
"Employees were engaged by the hands-on activities in the workshops that related to their work. CACT trainer, Jes Vargas is very knowledgeable and explained lean methods clearly. I would definitely recommend the Lean and Process Mapping training to companies that want to establish a common framework to move forward with lean initiatives that increase efficiency and responsiveness to customers."
Upcoming Project Management Training
With the Continuous Improvement Network (CIN), Sierra College Center for Applied Competitive Technologies will offer Practical Project Management Training on June 4, 18 and 24. This three day introductory training will teach participants the basic principles of good project management. Attendees will learn how to identify project resources, create schedules, produce critical path plans and complete evaluation reports. A class project will enable participants to apply the principles and use the tools introduced in the class. Register at http://cacinetwork.com/.

W3C Validator: A Spell & Grammar Checker for Website Code
To make a good customer impression on the web, businesses owners need to ensure a clean and clear website. One way is by using a W3C validator. Think of it this way; if you were writing an important report or a letter to a customer, you would want to use a spell and grammar checker to catch unintended errors. Website markup also has a syntax and grammar that needs to be checked. Business owners need to be sure that they have not overlooked potential flaws in the markup code. Similar to word processing applications, web browsers do not distinguish invalid from valid statements. As a result, your web sites may look fine at first glance but have compromised functionality. For example, people may not be able to find information about a product because the link is missing or there is some invalid text. Using a W3C validator helps reduce this risk.

The present invention relates to a mass transfer apparatus for the flow of fluids that are separated by a planar membrane which is folded several times upon itself in accordion-like manner.
It is described by way of example in the particular case where such an apparatus is used for the treatment of blood by hemodialysis and/or by ultrafiltration, and more particularly to an apparatus of small size and weight, economical in operation, suitable to be used at home and thrown away after use.
The invention relates to an improvement in an apparatus comprising a semipermeable membrane folded to form a stack of accordion pleats and disposed inside a fluid-tight casing provided with the necessary ports for the introduction and evacuation of blood, dialysate and/or ultrafiltrate, the pleats of the stack on one side of the membrane containing a plurality of porous or open-mesh support members.
An apparatus of this general type is already known, as disclosed particularly in U.S. Pat. No. 3,788,482. In such an apparatus blood and dialysate flow in two different compartments separated by one membrane. The edges of the accordion-folded membrane are embedded in a plastic material which solidifies to form at least a portion of the housing. Thus, the liquid which flows in one compartment between two consecutive pleats remains in a zone limited by these two pleats from one end to the other; it cannot and must not escape from this zone. FIG. 4 of the patent just cited shows especially how the rounded creases of the membrane 6 are intended to prevent any blood escaping from one pleat to another. It has now been found that such an object may not always be achieved and that changes in the physical characteristics of the membrane under conditions of use may result in slight separation of the membrane creases from the embedding or potting material. It has further been found that such separation causes the development of bypass channels which may seriously impair the efficiency, effectiveness, and general performance of such an apparatus. A part of the blood introduced into the apparatus flows through such bypasses, according to the shortest and easiest ways from the inlet port to the outlet port, instead of spreading in a thin film substantially uniformly between the pleats of the membrane. The formation of bypass channels on the blood side are now believed to account for reductions in efficiency (as measured by urea clearance) of as much as 30 percent in comparison with expected normal values.
One aspect of this invention lies in recognizing the problem and its cause; a further aspect lies in the discovery of a relatively simple but highly effective solution to that problem. Specifically an important aspect and object of the present invention consists in providing an apparatus which enables the formation of thin films of blood within the membrane pleats to cross the apparatus from one end to the other while at the same time suppressing the formation of bypass channels, thereby leading to an apparatus of greatly improved efficiency and uniformity of performance.
It is also an object of the invention to provide a simple, economical and efficient process for manufacturing such an apparatus.
In accordance with the present invention, a mass transfer apparatus is disclosed which comprises a housing, preferably rectangular, a semipermeable membrane disposed within said housing, said membrane being folded to form a stack of accordion pleats over the whole internal surface of the bottom of said housing, at least one support member being disposed within every pleat on one side only of said membrane, all edges of said membrane being embedded in an embedding medium to form two fluid compartments with ports allowing the flow of a fluid in each compartment, the creases of said membrane pleats folded around said support members being embedded or potted their full length along a longitudinal side of the housing, said creases being collapsed upon said support members and, at their ends, being sharply folded upon themselves and deeply penetrating into said potting material.
The invention relates also to a method of manufacturing such a mass transfer apparatus. This method comprises the following steps:
(a) Making up an assemblage comprising a semipermeable membrane folded in an accordion-like manner into a number of closely spaced pleats around support members inserted on one side of said membrane;
(b) Sealing certain of the edges of the membrane along substantially their whole length to form a first fluid-tight compartment disposed on the same side of the membrane as the support members with respect to the membrane and provided with at least one port, the pleats formed around the support members being in communication with the outside through such port;
(c) Connecting said first compartment to a vacuum source and drawing vacuum in said first compartment to collapse the membrane pleats about the edge of the support members along one side (the blood side) of the accordion stack, after first treating such membrane pleats with water or other suitable softening agent to increase the pliability of the membrane (where the use of such softening agent is deemed necessary or desirable); and
(d) Applying a solidifiable fluid plastic material over the longitudinal face of the stack, on the side where the membrane pleats are both open and without support members therein, and solidifying said plastic material to embed the membrane pleats in such collapsed condition, thus forming a second compartment with at least one port and without bypass channels or interfacial zones that might develop bypass channels when the apparatus is put to use.
A still better understanding of the features of the present invention and its inherent advantages can be obtained from a reading of the following description of the invention and reference to the accompanying drawings in which:
FIG. 1 is a general and somewhat schematic perspective view, taken partly in transverse section, of a known type of hemodialyzer modified to include features embodying the present invention;
FIG. 2 is a partial view, on a larger scale, of some membrane pleats embedded in the potting material disposed along a longitudinal wall of the apparatus, on the right side as shown in FIG. 1; and
FIG. 3 illustrates in a series of views A through E successive stages in the manufacture of a mass transfer apparatus in accordance with the present invention.
The hemodialyzer, schematically shown in FIG. 1, includes a membrane 10 folded in accordion pleats about planar open-mesh support members 11, all disposed on the same side with respect to the membrane. The ends 12 and 13 of the membrane are sealed in fluid-tight relation to top 14a and bottom 14b of the casing of housing 15.
Each pleat of the membrane extends between one longitudinally disposed vertical side wall 16a and the opposing parallel side wall 16b, with the folded edges of each pleat embedded in a potting or embedding material 17 along the inner surfaces of those side walls. In addition, the ends of the support members 11 and the edges of the membrane 10 at each end of the casing are embedded in potting material long the inside surfaces of the vertical walls at both ends of the casing. Thus, the membrane divides the interior of the apparatus into two compartments, a first compartment, provided with support members for the flow of dialysate, and a second compartment, without any support members, for the flow of blood in a direction countercurrent with respect to the flow of dialysate. Suitable ports such as 18 and 19 disposed adjacent opposite ends of the casing allow the blood and dialysate to enter and leave their respective compartments. These ports 18 and 19 are connected, as is well known, to channels located within the enlarged portions 20 and 21, said channels being between said ports and every pleat of the membrane in each of the two compartments. All these arrangements so far specifically described are generally well known.
FIG. 2 shows in detail how the membrane pleats such as 22, 23 and 24, around the support members such as 11A, 11B, 11C, are disposed in relation to the embedding means 17 along the internal face of the right longitudinal side wall 16b of the apparatus as shown in FIG. 1.
Dotted lines show the position of the membrane pleats in relation to the embedding means 17 and internal face of the longitudinal wall 16b of the apparatus according to the prior art. The plastic material of the embedding means 17 is fluid when brought into contact with the membrane pleats. Also it enters between the rounded membrane pleats and offers inside the apparatus, after setting or curing, a surface with alternate and parallel grooves and ribs, tightly cast around the membrane pleats.
One can readily see that, according to the prior art, the creases of the membrane pleats are regularly rounded about support members and so offer a convex external surface. It has now been found that because of swelling and other changes which inherently take place in a dialysis membrane (whether the membrane is formed of Cuprophan, polyacrilonitrile, or some other material) when that membrane is in service and a negative pressure differential is thus applied between the compartments for blood and dialysate, the membrane pleats may become detached from the potting material and cause the formation of bypass channels which are harmful to the efficiency of the apparatus.
One can also readily see that, under the same conditions, harmful bypasses do not occur at the left apparatus wall 16a because, under the difference of pressure between the two compartments for the blood and the dialysate, the membrane pleats are distended on that left side and so they remain securely in contact with the potting material.
The present invention prevents the possibility of bypass during operation since it creates a bypass condition as part of the assembly procedure and then eliminates that condition by very effectively sealing the bypass channels so that bypassing cannot thereafter occur during operation. According to the present invention, it is possible to prevent the membrane from becoming detached from the embedding medium along longitudinally extending vertical wall 16b if, during the manufacture of the apparatus, a vacuum is applied on the dialysate compartment. Preferably this vacuum is strong enough to collapse the membrane pleats around the support members as when in service, and then the solidifiable fluid plastic material 17 is applied to the membrane pleats and then solidified in this position to embed the creased edges of the collapsed pleats. The membrane cannot thereafter move in relation to the potting material along wall 16b, and accordingly bypasses cannot occur during operation of the device.
The collapsed membrane takes the shape and assumes the position shown in full lines in FIG. 2. The area between the dotted and the full lines for the membrane is shown as cross-hatched. This cross-hatched area is filled with the plastic material placed around the creases of the membrane after collapsing under the applied vacuum. It corresponds almost exactly to the void spaces which if present would have allowed bypasses for the blood and thus destroyed the efficient operation of the apparatus.
FIG. 3 shows in a series of views the several successive stages of manufacture. A shows the configuration at the start; B the configuration upon application of the vacuum; C the wetting with e.g., water in the case of Cuprophan which is a conventional regenerated cellulose membrane material; D the configuration after drying in the case of Cuprophan; and E the final configuration after potting.
It will be observed from FIG. 2 that the creases of the pleats of the membrane, collapsed around the support members, extend beyond the right longitudinal ends of support members, and that the creases are sharply folded upon themselves, with a substantially bi-concave external shape in cross section. These sharp creases plunge or extend deeply into the plastic material 17 which forms a part of the wall 16b of the apparatus, and indeed have a configuration resembling that of a cusp.
The shape of these creases depends on the type, the shape, and the location of the edge of the support members. They may be regular, continuous and parallel to the plane of the support members, but they also may be somewhat irregular, discontinuous or inclined in regard to the plane of the support members.
As support members, it is possible to use supports of any known types, but preferably they are made of non-woven mesh of a plastic material such as a polyolefin. One suitable commercially-available open-mesh material is sold under the name Vexar. With regard to the embedding medium, any conventional soildifiable plastic such as epoxy or polyurethane may be used. The housing 15 would ordinarily be formed of a plastic material such as polycarbonate, polystyrene, or polymethylmethacrylate, although other materials might be employed.
A method of manufacturing the apparatus according to the present invention comprises the main following steps:
As assemblage is made, comprising a semipermeable membrane folded in an accordion-like manner into a number of closely spaced pleats around support members inserted on one side of the membrane.
An envelope is made for this assemblage. One embodiment employs a preconstructed casing with a first one of the two longitudinally extending vertical walls of the casing in close proximity to the pleats in the assemblage, each of the two walls being provided at each end with access ports to the interior of the housing. A plastic material within the preconstructed casing constitutes a portion of the housing and surrounds the edges of the membrane sealingly embedding those edges on their whole length thereby forming a separate fluid compartment on each side of the membrane.
Alternatively, no preconstructed casing is used, but instead a housing is formed in place about the membrane assemblage. The housing is formed by surrounding the membrane assemblage with a plastic material which constitutes at first a part of the entire housing and which also surrounds the edges of the membrane and sealingly embeds those edges on their whole length so as to form separate fluid compartments on each side of the membrane which undulates back and forth across the width of the housing. Access ports are sealingly mounted on the housing over openings communicating with the interior of the housing.
In each embodiment, the access ports provide means for passing one fluid through one of the separate fluid compartments in a direction generally parallel to the creases of the pleats and a second fluid through the other fluid compartment on the opposite side of the membrane, countercurrent to the first fluid.
When the edges of the membrane at the top, bottom, and ends of the stack have been sealed by potting or otherwise to produce an assemblage in which the accordion-folded membrane separates the first and second compartments (i.e., what is to become the dialysate and blood compartments, respectively), with the support members disposed only within the pleats of that first compartment, this first compartment is connected to a vacuum source, and vacuum is applied on this first compartment. Generally, a suitable vacuum is between 50 and 200 mm Hg, according to the thickness and/or the stiffness of the membrane.
When the membrane is rather thick and/or stiff, it is preferred to treat at least those portions of it along the creases on the blood side with water or other suitable softening agent before applying the vacuum. Advantageously only the creases of the pleats are wetted to make them more pliable. Water is particularly effective as a liquid softening agent for Cuprophan membranes. The membrane is then collapsed about the support members and on itself near the edges of the support members as shown in FIG. 2.
The solidifiable fluid plastic material 17 is then applied over the longitudinal side face of the membrane stack, on the side where the membrane pleats are without any support members. This plastic material is then allowed to solidify, thus making the second compartment leak-tight and bypass-free. Throughout this potting step the vacuum on what is to become the blood side of the dialyzer (i.e., the second compartment) is usually maintained until the plastic has solidified and the membrane has dried. Where such embedding or potting of the membrane along the creases of the blood side occurs while the membrane is wet and in its softened or pliable state, it is believed essential to maintain the vacuum until the plastic has solidified; however, where such creases are treated with a liquid softening agent such as water and are then allowed to dry prior to the embedding step, the vacuum may sometimes by relieved prior to complete solidification of the embedding medium.
Two similar hemodialyzers were built: the first, according to the prior art and the second, of otherwise the same general construction and arrangement but made according to the present invention. The blood side folds of the membrane were wetted with water and a 100 mm Hg vacuum was applied to the dialysate compartment, before potting the blood compartment. The wetted membrane, which was a regenerated cellulose membrane having a thickness of about 11.5 microns, collapsed into the shape it would take as shown in FIG. 2 when operating the hemodialyzer at 100 mm Hg transmembrane pressure. Vacuum was maintained on the stack for 15 minutes, until the membrane dried and "froze" in its collapsed state. Then routine side potting with epoxy resin and assembly followed. It was found that the urea clearance was 109 ml/min with the first hemodialyzer versus 140 ml/min with the second one under the same operating conditions.
The apparatus has been described in a form particularly adapted for use as a hemodialyzer provided with four ports, two for blood and two for dialysate, and hence for the treatment of blood by hemodialysis and/or by ultrafiltration. However, the apparatus according to the present invention may comprise only three ports, two for blood and one only for the exit of ultrafiltrate. In each of these cases the features described herein improved the blood circulation and the efficiency of the apparatus.
This apparatus may also be adapted for other treatment of blood, for instance as a blood oxygenator in an artificial lung.
Moreover, the terms "blood" and "dialysate" are employed herein to identify exemplary fluids, and are used merely for convenience of exposition and as such are to be construed as including other fluids.
Also other types of membranes or folded sheets may be employed as desired and as indicated by the particular fluids and by the nature of the desired transfer between the fluids.

Firstly, I do understand regional coding, but I have been made aware of something that makes it a little confusing.
I have just bought the Region 1 release of "The Adventures Of Priscilla, Queen Of The Desert", even though my Sony Blu-Ray player isn't a multi regional machine. I bought the Region 1 release because a reviewer on Amazon pointed out that although the disc is listed as Region 1, it will play on a 'standard' Region 2 machine. I should also point out that the film hasn't yet been released as a Region 2 disc, which is why I bought the Region 1 release in the first place.
I'm pleased to say that he was absolutely right. I watched the film this very evening and it was absolutely perfect.
What I would like to know is, does anyone know of any other Region 1 Blu-Ray's that will play on a Region 2 machine?
One film that does spring to mind is "Creepshow", a film that I would love to have on Blu-Ray.

It is not necessarily easy to earn the breads these individuals and times get the 1st possibility which acclaims to become much easier. Growing Male strippers in Bristol and masculine strippers inside London are results of this believed that striping is a simple project as compared to sum that it fetches. Prostitution is normally prohibited globally, this is exactly where, and these spectacular dancers locate their location to make. A stripper or spectacular dancer is really a man or woman in whose job involves undertaking striptease in a public adult atmosphere. A striptease is definitely an erotic boogie when the performer dances along with a provocative way and through the full boogie undresses her or him slowly. The undressing could be part or complete. The venues where by stripteases are performed on consistent basis are these days called as strip club.
Now the strippers will not be confined to strip team and bucks party perth. They may have stepped beyond the organizations to retrieve some really good cents. These days they may be even executing in venues like general public movie theaters, properties and songs halls. They can be specialists on the planet of amusement. Their spectacular dances place donation for the amusement of the public. These clubs are usually designed for sexually frustrated, sexually stressed out or perhaps sexually excited general public in which desperation gets to its vacation spot paving the way by means of eyeballs. Stripper's gain more constitute the recommendations that they obtain in the grown-up turned on community around them. Slow developing burlesque style with explicit acrobatics and expression associated with ubiquitous props can it all on their behalf. Total nudity is forbidden legally however.
Now strippers are even known as for exclusive functions generally the bachelor's party. The career is now not just confined to girls but men have evenly received area in this business now. These dancers are frequently not true workers in the membership itself but perform as impartial companies. A home dancer performs for the team or franchise. Their uniforms are often layered and strippers like go-go dancers retain bikini and best much less dancers will not likely expose their genitals. Full nudity is becoming popular but it is disallowed by law. Holding a stripper is mainly prohibited in night clubs but personal functions rule is dependent upon the previous deal between your celebration variety and the stripper.
Fetching money for Guy strippers in Bristol and men strippers in the up is not really as easy as it seems like. Even they have to work a great deal on his or her looks, body, and physique and party styles. It is far from an easy task to hang there on that pole.

Here are my picks to roll, and get rolled, in Week 5 of the 2013 season.
Watch 'em roll
Michael Vick, QB, Eagles at Giants. No defense has given up more passing TDs (10) or generated fewer sacks (four) than the Giants. That's a tasty combo for Vick, who should have a stellar rebound against his struggling division rivals. With little pressure to avoid and wide-open running and passing lanes, Vick could be this week's fantasy big winner.
Rashad Jennings, RB, Raiders vs. Chargers. With all signs pointing to Darren McFadden's resting his bum hamstring, and Terrelle Pryor's returning under center, Jennings will have a great opportunity to build on his stellar Week 4 outing.

I was scrolling through my Twitter stream a couple of days ago and I saw the following phrase:
Why bosses should beware of pasta and peanut butter.
But then I got distracted and never had the opportunity to click through to see what it meant.
Until now.
According to The Corner Office at BNET, it has the following meaning:
If you're looking to destroy your company, try adopting a "peanut butter" approach, spreading your resources thinly across every available surface. If your company survives that, try a "pasta" strategy, in which you fling money and resources around at random to see what sticks.
If you're like me, you've likely employed both of these "strategies." But the "peanut butter" approach really has me thinking, especially in this economy where we're all doing more with less.
We live in a real-time, instant world where, if you're not multi-tasking – or spreading your resources thinly across every available surface – you're perceived as one who can't manage everything.
But is the human brain equipped to cope with more than one thing at a time?
If you're on a conference call or webinar, for example, how many of you will also check email, text a family member, or instant message a colleague? When you do that, how much of the call are you missing? I'd venture to guess most of it.
Test a theory for me.
Choose a challenging task that needs to be accomplished the next day. Block out 60-90 minutes to at least get it started, if not complete it. Close email. Turn off Skype and instant messaging. Put your email in offline mode. Turn off every alert you get for your social networks. Set the timer for your allotted time and get to work.
I'm willing to bet good money you're much more productive working this way. If it works, determine the top five things you need to accomplish each day, set your timer, and get to work.
Soon you'll be leaving the office earlier and people will wonder how it is that you're able to be so productive.
This first ran as my weekly column in Crain's.

@glenn_ferrell So are you recommending we all become computers, Glenn?!? In all seriousness, your point about latency is true. I rely on post-it notes to help me with the details. Probably not the best scheme, but it works for me.
@ginidietrich Probably better than mine – I use torn up scrap paper 🙂
Totally agree with you Gini – unplugging is the only way to go. I don't have any notifications sent to my iPhone for social networks as I find this helps me focus more, especially when I am away from my computer. The amount of interruptions (Skype, Google chat, Facebook chat, Twitter etc) is really ridiculous. Do we really need instant access to people 24 hours a day? I think not.
@PegFitzpatrick People's expectations for instant access only come about when you make yourself available at all hours. Set Client expectations 1st thing, the relationship will work better.
@mentormarketing@PegFitzpatrick Expectations, expectations, expectations! We talk a lot internally about boundaries. If we drop everything for a new business prospect and do things like meet them on a weekend, they're going to expect it throughout the entire relationship. Too many times we all make those mistakes.
@PegFitzpatrick What?!? No 24 hours a day access? My heart is hurting. 🙂
@ginidietrich Of course YOU can have 24 hour access Gini!
But remember the days before cell phones when you left the office and this meant no more phone calls or email? We have constant interruptions at our house for cell phone calls and email, this would be my husband, and it has really affected the quality of life. Being on call 24 hours a day is crazy – but in this day & age working in worldwide times zones and a tough economy, it is hard to turn things off.
@PegFitzpatrick I have a friend who runs an agency in Canada and he implemented the "no email after 5 pm" rule. He said it's working really well.
@ginidietrich@PegFitzpatrick I have that rule, too! I try to abide by it, but I've been guilty of breaking it. I do have a strong "no business emails during the weekends" rule, though.
@Krista This is how I'm getting a book written – with that very same theory. We're so smart!
I was just talking to someone about this today! It's so easy to get distracted on the task at hand when you are constantly being alerted with e-mails, tweets, facebook alerts, google reader, etc.
Productivity has definitely suffered with technology today…I think it does take people longer to get things done than before.
I'll accept your challenge this week and let you know how it works out on Saturday when I see you!
@patrickreyes I get to see you on Saturday!
Oh, so that's your secret: Only do one thing at a time. Makes sense. I also find that setting some long-term goals helps me to focus on what's important. If a task doesn't help me get where I want to go, I try to forget it. I'm not always successful, but at least it gives me a framework.
@Shelley Pringle Great point about the long-term goals. I have our vision posted on the wall in front of me. If I'm about to embark on something that doesn't fit the vision, I don't do it.
@ginidietrich@Shelley Pringle developing a "Vision Board" is a good idea. This is an opportunity for you to get a bulletin board and fill it with pictures, notes, charts, graphs and other related meaningful items that depict the most important goals and objectives for you to accomplish in a preset period of time to reference from time to time. Helps me to keep my eye on the ball and prioritize.
I want to see your vision board!
@ginidietrich@John_Trader1 Love the idea of the bulletin board. I'm going to try that.
I use post-it notes in 3 staged colors to track tasks through completion, a workflow of sorts.
Also If I know something will take concentration I do it on my desktop vs my notebook.
I find that sitting at a proper workstation helps my focus and comprehension.
I leave my cell phone on, but I use the reply to call with email feature where I tell people I'll return the call in 15 minutes, which gives me time to find a stop point.
@mentormarketing I don't know how people can focus without sitting at a proper workstation. I'm the same way!
@michellehals Let me know how it works for you!
@ginidietrich So elementary, right? But we have moved a long way off from the basic stuff, I guess.
@craigmillertv You are correct
I have always been this way, I cannot imagine answering messages or texting during a meeting or conference call. Quite frankly, it is rude and unprofessional, I would be discouraged if I knew someone was doing that on the other end of the line with me. Then again, I have been that way my whole life. Even studying in school, the whole family knew I was going to be busy and not to bother me and I would hole myself up to work until it was time for a break. Anything worth doing deserves your whole and entire attention.
@smccollo That sounds like your parents did a really good job teaching you what's important! When I'm with clients, and they pull out their phones, it makes me want to double bill them. I hate it.
Great post. In my experience, success is more often determined by what you choose NOT to do, rather than what you choose to do.
@doug__davidoff I agree. I was making a broad assumption people are already doing what they're supposed to do.
It's actually bigger than that. I've always called it the Broken Plate Theory. You can choose to spin a whole bunch of plates and have them be wobbly, or you can choose the plates that will spin well. To have plates spin really well, you need to allows some plates to break – and that's noisy and messy.
The biggest challenge I've seen with small and mid-market business (and even many large ones) is they can choose and accept where they are going to be weak. So they end up playing to their weaknesses.
As much as this makes sense I seem to sabotage myself daily when I leave all those alerts open which continue to distract me. I might try it for 60 minutes today. We need more posts reminding us of these events.
@rj_c I think we all sabotage ourselves! Try it. Just an hour. Set the timer on your phone. Do it.!
Got it. Turn off everything except for my Spin Sucks alert.
Check! 🙂
–Tony Gnau
@T60Productions You're so smart!
WorkFlowy is my best friend on days when the deadlines are many & I'm struggling to focus. Try it. It rocks.
@jasonkonopinski I'm always trying different methods and apps, but the post-it notes are always what I go back to. I can use them when I'm on a plane and technology isn't allowed.
@jasonkonopinski WorkFlowy looks interesting. I cannot escape from all these productivity tools…
@vanhoosear If you are sharing @ginidietrich's secret, how's it a secret?
I am in IT so I never know when the next fire might be coming. For me this invokes the importance of having a plan. Usually I can really focus if I have a clear plan. I will try this and see if it helps me finish a challenging task 🙂
@hackmanj It's hard when you're in client service. Have you tried what @mentormarketing suggests for calls that come in that you can't answer immediately?
@ginidietrich@mentormarketing I like the suggestion, I work almost exclusively at my workstation. The auto respond idea is interesting… I did order a huge whiteboard for the area above my desk. I try to organize as much as I can electronically though so it is accessible anywhere. I use tickets in a PSA software called Connectwise and calendar items in Outlook for things that have to get done 🙂
@hackmanj@ginidietrich RE: whiteboards I use a pad of white sketch paper with post its on it, I can reorder the post-it notes as I need to, hence flexible work flow management => low tech wise. Also I snap a pic of the changes and save it to a evernote on my phone, so I can access the paper board from where ever I am at, and I also have the rollbacks or version changes as time moves.
I'm doing this today for a couple of important blog posts I need to write!
You rock!
@FrankDickinson Let me know how it works!
Great tips, Gini!
Sounds like you have a secret "Fortress of Solitude." 🙂
@TMNinja Don't tell anyone!
Getting More Done: good post from @ginidietrich http ://www.spinsucks.com/entrepreneur/getting-more-done-my-little-secret/ via @rustyspeidel
@bdorman264 I suppose it's probably easier for those of us in leadership positions – we can close the door or leave the office easier than young professionals.
And…you're always a doofus.
@ginidietrich You weren't supposed to be able to see through me like that; I thought I had you believing I was really swave and deboner……..maybe I should have just stayed online, huh?
@bdorman264 It was the speedo that gave you away.
[…] Getting More Done: My Secret originally appeared on Spin Sucks on November 7, 2011. […]
I like to do everything at once and accomplish everything poorly.
OK, fine. I'll give this a try.
@JayDolan How was the big trip?!?
@ginidietrich I made it back to North Carolina safely, and there was a lot of happiness through the whole trip.
There's also a reason it's taking me a while to write my next blog post.
I think this is true for men, but not for women. Men can't multi-task. Yes. I'm just kidding.
I completely agree. Get rid of all the distractions, and it's amazing how quickly we can get things done. Then reward with the facebook/twitter/email break. and then back to it.
Now wait…. I came onto the blog for a reason.. what was I doing?
@Lisa Gerber You came to get your lamp.
@ginidietrich@Lisa Gerber But there's a problem. If I get rid of the distractions, that means I have to get rid of you guys…
@KenMueller @ginidietrich wow, and then imagine how much productivity would increase. For three people!!! 🙂
@ginidietrich and my pen. and this coffee cup. (HAHAHA, can you tell I'm getting inspiration for the objects from my desktop?)
@SocialMediaDDS@Lisa Gerberginidietrich Thanks for the tip of the hat Claudia: I'm glad you took that break away.
And I won't even get started on "multi-tasking". Don't believe in it. Don't do it. Not productive, effective or efficient. Yeah…you got me started…Cheers! Kaarina
@SocialMediaDDS Amazing what walking away will do, isn't it? I'm also amazed daily about how much I can accomplish if I set the timer and get to work. If that doesn't work, I go for a run or bike ride and voila! It takes care of itself pretty quickly after I'm back at my desk.
I've said many things about why I think the 8 hour workday doesn't make any sense. I believe that there's a certain diminishing return in our ability to be productive over an extended period of time. But giving yourself time limits and working through things in that manner can be really powerful. I've been able to do crazy things like write an ebook in two weeks by incorporating time blocks where I focus on just on thing.
@skooloflife I've always loved your philosophy of work and surf. I'm training myself to do the same (but run or cycle). It's hard to not feel guilty for running out in the middle of the day, but I'm LOTS more productive when I do.
It looks like BlogWorld went really well for you? Did you lose your voice?
Great point about the 8 hour workday. It was one thing when we stood up and were active for that time period in the industrial age. In fact, I recently assembled a standing desk so I can slowly transition back to standing. For mental tasks, 8 hours straight through or even with a food break makes little sense. @skooloflife
@Tinu@skooloflife Even in school we don't sit for eight hours. Recess anyone?
@Tinu@skooloflife Working with a group of programmers has taught me that you need to unplug your brain & simply play for a bit. The dogs are always here at the office, there's a ping pong table that gets a lot of use and I take 10 – 15 minutes every day to take a quick longboard ride around downtown to reinvigorate myself. Works wonders.
@Tinu@KenMueller I always have music playing when I work – but it has to be music that I know *very* well or I wind up focusing on the instrumentation and arrangement more than what I should be working on. Oops. Headphones on and head down – one project at a time. I'm a firm believer that the human brain simply isn't appropriately wired for multi-tasking. I know the quality of my creative output suffers greatly when I've let too many things pile up.
@KenMueller DA BEARS!!!
@ginidietrich no no no. Fly Iggles Fly!
@ginidietrich and wouldn't you know, today I'm distracted beyond belief. Work is being put on the backburner as we speak.
@Erin F. I use the timer on my phone. Yesterday I set it for an hour to finish chapter six of the book I'm writing. And at 45 minutes I was struggling with what to write next. But I knew I had only 15 more allotted minutes so I pushed through and actually wrote more than I expected. It works really well.
@nateriggs Thanks for the RT. How are things going down on the farm? (Get the Bob Evans reference?)
@michaelbowers Yes, Totally. 🙂 Working from home today. The farm is good. Lots in progress. Kind of nuts, but what else is new, right?;)
I am good at multitasking but it depends on the nature of what needs to be done. You will almost never find a time where I don't listen to music. Email is easily managed for me- ti is the damn phone that is a problem.
@TheJackB I always listen to music, too. I think it's because I'm the oldest of six and I grew up studying with lots of noise. I turn my phone off. I have zero problem putting people to VM until I'm ready to talk.
@ginidietrich@TheJackB Me, too! Voice mail is a wonderful thing! I'm also trying to embrace the delete, delegate or address method with email and do that a few times throughout the day. It's a challenge, but I'm getting there.
@ginidietrich I have four sisters and am the only brother so I think I understand a little bit. My sisters will tell you that I can fight all four of them off at the same time and keep doing whatever it is I am doing.
Used to make them crazy. My telephone issue is different. I don't have any one to screen the business calls so most of the time I have to take them. I hope to change that soon, but until I do….
@ginidietrich@TheJackB which is…um…NEVER!
I've been reading the book "Your Brain at Work" and the author really strongly makes the case that the human brain is just not equipped to multi-task. In fact it's not really good at doing one thing at a time either (even if you shut off the external distractions, your internal processes pop up).
I'm starting to think that this is an important skill for us to learn, and not many people are that good at it.
@blfarris So if we can't multi-task and we can't do on thing at a time, how the heck are we supposed to work?
@ginidietrich@blfarris if you worked at 7-11 you can just focus on keeping the coffee station with fresh coffee and stirrers. Wait that is multitasking. How can they ask you to multitask for that kind of pay?
No you can not take away my Skype! I refuse! I am hooked! You mean evil woman!Momma!!!! Momma!!!! Wahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!! I need my Skype!
Wait….what is Skype?
I thought you said Skippie Peanut Butter. Not the healthiest but damn tasty especially crunchy.
Sorry. Carry on. Great tips. Not really a secret anymore eh?
BTW I typed this while listening to Iron Maiden during a Teleconference and almost at level 346 of Tetris while sipping a Latte.
@HowieSPM I love peanut butter! In fact, I had a toasted peanut butter and banana sammich on Friday and it was delicious!
@ginidietrich@HowieSPM //my breakfast on most mornings!! LOVE PB&B 😉
@SocialMediaDDS@ginidietrich I just like PB&B. Never been a jelly guy. But adding some butter on on side is quite yummy. Yes I know I am weird. My girlfriend thinks I hate everything just because I hate eggs, cream cheese, mustard, sweet potatoes, and sou cream.
@HowieSPM Which Iron Maiden song. I just finished a set of Number of The Beast, The Trooper and Run To The Hills.
@TheJackB I knew I liked you for more than your social media Jack! Yes love Killers, Number of the Beast and Piece of Mind after that they got a bit too accessible for me.
@HowieSPM How many bands are flown around by the lead singer. I liked Powerslave but didn't really go too far beyond that.
@TheJackB 2 or 3 years ago when Guns and Roses was touring just Axel Rose as the original member he ordered security at a concert in Australia to not let anyone in wearing a Slash t shirt!
@MaraShorr LOL! I <3 you!
@ginidietrich You rock!
@Tinu What time do you normally start and how long do you go without distractions? I am my most productive from 6-9 every morning. I almost want to get up an hour earlier to have one more of uninterrupted time. Almost.
This is the only way I can survive. I have 1 block of 3 hrs per day to get my work done. Anything more than that is a bonus. I HAVE to be super organized even if it goes against my nature.
@Ameena Falchetto So you work steadily for three full hours?
@ginidietrich Probably 2.5hrs if I am honest. I don't have a choice when my time is controlled by a half-pint dictator! (also have 3 sites so it's not like I have time to waste) ….
@wagnerwrites Mmmm…peanut butter
@ginidietrich @wagnerwrites Who's got peanut butter? #want
Lately, that's the ONLY way I get a task completed. I block out everything – another reason I've been MIA from the Twitter stream for long periods of time. It's go time! Work to be done…when I have everything open, I'm like a cat chasing a light (have you seen Puss in Boots yet??) and lose track of where and who I am. So, my solution is your solution – block out time and get to work. Great results from that!
@EricaAllison BIG results from that!
@EricaAllison Me too!
one of the most useful tips I've ever gotten out of a book was scheduling my email time and then not touching the inbox until planned on times throughout the day.
@terence.stephens It works so well, doesn't it?
@ginidietrich I like that post a lot – have you ever tried the pomodoro technique for time management?
@troycostlow I've tried every time management tool out there. I keep going back to post-it notes.
But what if your job IS social media?
Do you not have things you need to do without interruption? Writing content? Developing campaigns?
AGREED! This is such a good mantra for your work day and you won't believe how much work you actually get done. I'm going to pass this around to my staff 😉
@MichaelBesson I hope my staff listens too!
Oh man! An assignment??? Gini, you're killing me!
Of course, I totally see your point though. Distractions can be productivity killers.
Last week at BlogWorld I asked CC Chapman about time management and he said he uses Freedom. A Mac-based application that shuts down the internet for an amount of time you set. You cannot log on to do any of that other stuff. Of course, the bad thing is you can turn off your computer and restart it to disable. That kind of stinks.
@WordsDoneWrite Wait. You have to shut down your computer in order to disable it? That would drive me nuts.
Try it, folks! RT @ginidietrich I'm willing to bet big money if U follow my theory, you'll be more productive http://t.co/0PMrO2Rz
@lauraclick I've actually found that if I answer email only three or four times a day, it decreases in amount. It eliminates the back and forth, which is WONDERFUL!
@ginidietrich Totally agree!
that;s the only thing that works for me!
@moni_gi I can't imagine anything works better. Great minds…
[…] Gini Dietrich, wrote the other day about her secret to getting more done. You can read her post here. Gini wisely pointed out that multitasking is a myth and that you will get more done if you focus […]
@JohnnyP Note to self: Invite John to play WWF at 1:00 tomorrow.
I cannot write with email up. I'm really bad at getting phone calls done with email up. There is no chance paperwork is getting done with email up…
Solution: Turn EMAIL OFF!
So simple but yet so hard.
Thank you!
Ryan H.
@AlbanyInsurance TURN EMAIL OFF! Amen!
@TheSalesLion You ARE a lazy bum.
@ginidietrich Will you rub my feet then?
Haha! You two….. @TheSalesLion @ginidietrich
@laineyd7 @ginidietrich Seriously Elaine, Gini dreams about rubbing my feet sometimes. It's kinda weird, but I've come to accept it now. 🙂
@laineyd7 Please don't encourage him. @TheSalesLion
@TheSalesLion Ummmm…no.
@DavidBurch Love it! And I LOVE peanut butter!
@Brankica Whew. You had me holding my breath there for a second! Just do it one hour a day. The feeling of accomplishing so much is addictive.
@ginidietrich I was kinda trying to be forgive for not tweeting it yet ;)But yeah, I definitely need to start doing this an hour a day, I would do so much more and better! Thanks for the reminder, I can always count on your to "wake me up"
Ohmyword. I so needed this! RT @LiveUrLove Getting More Done: My Secret http://t.co/0Hxao3zB via @ginidietrich

The true value of this package is the CD which allows the listener to eavesdrop on "a president being president" as described by editor Ted Widmer. He claims that this is the closest to a JFK autobiography as we can ever get. While the audio quality on some of the entries is weak, on others the voice of the President is hauntingly clear and evocative. And the range of the selections is as wide as can be imagined. We hear the President finish a conversation with his daughter to be briefed by the CIA on their discovery of offensive missiles in Cuba. He argues with Mississippi Governor Barnett about how to restore order during the integration of the University ("How can I remove him, Governor, when there's a riot in the street and he may step out of the building and something happen to him?") JFK gives his regards to Yugoslavia Marshal Tito and chews out his assistant defense secretary for publicity about a costly furniture purchase ("You just sank the air force budget! You're crazy up there! Are they crazy? That silly bastard with his picture next to the bed?") In one call, he briefs former President Herbert Hoover about the Cuban Missile Crisis. Hoover emerges from a different world in which he was chief executive in 1928 and opens by observing, "It seems to me these recent events are rather incredible.Read more ›
This is a book of interesting nuggets. If you want complete histories, you will need to look elsewhere. But the nuggets can be very revealing. It's interesting to listen to his advisers suggest invading Cuba during the Missile Crisis... it's incredible to listen to JFK calmly try to examine what the Soviet Union was hoping to accomplish. Although JFK tends to be immortalized far too much, these tapes do reveal a cool thinker who doesn't let his emotions make his decisions for him.
There's funny stuff in there too... like when JFK practically loses his cool when he hears the Navy spent five thousand dollars dressing up a maternity ward for the First Lady... or how he thought the movie "PT-109" was too long.
With a book like this, you get out of it what you want. Personally, I found it interesting to "eavesdrop" on conversations that were, in many cases, top secret.
"...Kennedy was determined to have a reliable record of the words that were spoken in the White House. And so n July 1962, Secret Service agent installed a sophisticated taping system in the Oval Office and the Cabinet Room of the White House. The reasons for this installation were never explained, by Kennedy or anyone else, in fact, the very existence of the taping system was a closely held secret..."
"A vast amount of information was gathered by those recording devices--248 hours of meetings in the Oval Office and Cabinet Room, and 17 and a half hours of telephone conversations and dictated private reflections."
In the book's foreword, Caroline Kennedy, who was present during some of the secret recording sessions, states that: "I was always told that my father installed secret Oval Office recording devices after the Bay of Pigs disaster so that he could have an accurate account of who said what, in case of any later disputes as to the exact nature of the conversations." And while Caroline can now appreciate the importance of those tapes of actual history being made, at the time she and her brother were much too young to have understood much of what was being discussed.
The various transcripts of the conversations are made more understandable by the fact they are illustrated with pictures of JFK with the people he was meeting with.Read more ›

text: Hi, While browsing this morning I found this history of Object Desktop, which might interest you if you're into the desktop customization thing: http://www.stardock.com/stardock/articles/article_odhistory.html Thinking a bit about all this, I was wondering about the future of XFree in relation to eye candy that can now be found on Mac OS X for instance. If I understand how it works, the OSX graphic engine keeps a bitmap of every window, which lets it do real transparency. On the other hand, XFree only remember what's on the screen, and asks the apps (using resize or expose events) to draw on the screen when something changes. It requires less memory, but prevents parts of windows that are not exposed to modify what's on the screen (and it seems to make programming more complex, as the program needs to remember what's supposed to be on the screen to redraw it when exposed). I guess that people are going to want true transparency for X some day, as well as eye candy such as repainting of the pager small pictures for other desktops ... So I'm wondering whether X may evolve to a "keep a bitmap of all windows" model, or if it's too big a change and some other system will replace it. Any thoughts ? Alan Schmitt PS: on some related note, Brad Wardell said that the closest thing to Object Desktop that exists on Linux is Enlightenment ;-) -- The hacker: someone who figured things out and made something cool happen.

As this came right out of Taibbi's latest in Rolling Stone, maybe this was an allusion to Lloyd Blankfein's attempt at lawyer logic by invoking befuddled responses on the stand under questioning by Levin.

One of my all-time favorite quotes — and right on target. I'm surprised it isn't involved more often.
Or maybe the quote could also apply to Mike Taibbi and why Rolling Stone pays him.

That is very interesting use of QM in my opinion. My researches are concentrated on building anything powerful enough for practical experiments (like ion traps rather then MNR base QC), but in same time a lot is going on in finding algorithms (for the moment most base on Grovers and Shores works and Deutsch of course), there is a lot interesting researches on storing quantum information. That subject is close related to quantum teleportation as well. I volunteer to helps with preparing that subject. My knowledge is maybe bit out of date with last 2-3y research but that could be good time for catch up.
