Boring! Get off the stage! How many times have you wished you could say this to a presenter at a conference? Or a demoer at DemoCamp? This workshop will help developers understand that doing demos is a marketing task because it generates demand for the software. Technologists and designers need to be able to create demand for their ideas. They need to be able to tell compelling stories that convince audiences that there is ‘wow’ in what they are doing. Successful demoers are more likely to raise money, have friends, and get laid.

This document discusses various causes of black pigmentation that can be seen during bronchoscopy. Some of the key causes mentioned include melanosis from occupational exposure, alkaptonuria, aspergillus niger infection, ochroconis gallopava infection, healed endobronchial tuberculosis, anthracosis from smoke inhalation, soot inhalation, argyria from chronic silver exposure, endobronchial melanoma, teratomas, charcoal aspiration, amiodarone use, and endobronchial ignition during thermal ablation procedures. Diagnosing the underlying cause of black pigmentation is important for determining appropriate treatment and management.
Flexible bronchoscopy is a procedure used to examine the lower airways including the trachea and bronchi. The respiratory system consists of the upper airways including the nose, mouth, and larynx, and the lower airways including the trachea, bronchi, and lungs. Flexible bronchoscopy allows doctors to directly visualize the trachea and bronchi down to the level of the terminal bronchioles. The British Thoracic Society published guidelines in 2013 outlining best practices for performing diagnostic flexible bronchoscopy in adults.
- Bronchoscopy allows for direct visualization of the airways using rigid or flexible instruments for both clinical and research purposes. - Clinically, it is used to examine airway anatomy, obtain airway samples, and for therapeutic procedures. - Indications for diagnostic bronchoscopy include evaluating the cause of symptoms like wheezing, hemoptysis, or cough lasting over 4 weeks, and identifying conditions like atelectasis, localized opacities, obstructive emphysema, and hilar or mediastinal shadows.
Bronchoscopy is a technique used to visually examine the inside of the airways. It can be performed using rigid or flexible scopes inserted through the nose, mouth or trachea. The first bronchoscopy was performed in 1897 using a rigid tube. Flexible fiberoptic bronchoscopes were developed in the 1960s, allowing better visualization of smaller airways. Bronchoscopy is used for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes such as evaluating lung abnormalities, taking biopsy samples, and treating conditions like airway tumors or bleeding. Complications can include pneumothorax, hemorrhage, or respiratory issues in high-risk patients.
Bronchoscopy is a technique used to visualize the inside of the airways for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes using a bronchoscope. There are two main types - rigid and flexible fiber optic. Rigid bronchoscopy is used for diagnostic purposes such as finding the cause of cough or hemoptysis, or therapeutically to remove foreign bodies or secretions. It requires general anesthesia. Flexible fiber optic bronchoscopy provides magnification and illumination to examine smaller airways and can be performed at the bedside under topical anesthesia. Both types aim to diagnose lung abnormalities or collect samples but rigid bronchoscopy carries more risks such as injury or hemorrhage.

This document discusses the arguments for using technology in Jewish education. It argues that while technology can increase efficiency and possibilities, its use requires a mindful approach. Simply introducing new technologies into classrooms does not guarantee educational benefits. Educators must understand how to leverage technologies to connect lessons to their affordances and avoid "just-so" explanations that technology will automatically improve education. A thoughtful approach is needed to skillfully blend technology with deep understanding, ethical values, and community.
