Charles Gordon Curtis
Charles Gordon Curtis Charles Gordon Curtis Charles Gordon CurtisAlmost a hundred years ago, Charles Gordon Curtis (1860-1953) revolutionized steam power and enabled inexpensive electricity to be created on a massive scale. This civil engineer turned kapitnspatent attorney turned entrepreneur/engineer/inventor benefited from having someone else market and manufacture his ideas, freeing him up to accomplish even more in other industries.Born in Boston, MA, in 1860, Curtis attended Columbia University, New York, graduated with a civil engineering degree in 1881, and went on to achieve his law degree at New York Law. He started his own patent law firm and worked as a patent attorney for eight years before he partnered with friends Charles Crocker and Schuyler S. Wheeler to form The Curtis, Crocker, Wheeler Company with the intention of making and marketing the first electric appliance motors and fans.According to Cassiers Engineering Magazine of 1901, these small electric motors worked with the same principles that larger dynamos did, giving Curtis a valuable exposure to the power industry he would soon serve. It was not long before Wheeler left, so Curtis co-partnered with Crocker, forming the CC (Curtis Crocker) Electric Motor Company, creating CC Motors for five years.Curtis then pursued his own direction in the new field of steam turbines, forming the Curtis Electric Manufacturing Co. and serving as president. It was there that he invented a steam turbine that offered size and weight improvements over the reciprocating engine/generator combinations used at the time to produce power.His invention, the Curtis Steam Turbine, was a two-stage, multi-speed impulse turbine, and its principles are still used today. Velocity compounding impulse turbines use Curtis Staging that makes more effective use of the energy present in the steam.In 1896, five years after it was patented, Curtis sold the rights to the turbine to General Electric. An agreement with GE in 1897 all owed Curtis space and personnel to develop the turbine for commercial use, and GE the rights to manufacture the turbines. He continued working at GE for three years directing turbine development.GE used Curtis turbines and steam generators in power plants to generate massive amounts of inexpensive electricity. The electric power supply industry grew at an unprecedented rate during 1900-1920, thanks to the Curtis vertical steam turbine.Curtis received an honorary M.S. degree from Columbia in 1907. Shortly after, he won the 1910 Rumford Prize, one of the oldest scientific prizes in the U.S., recognizing contributions to the fields of heat and light, for his steam engine work.Curtis continued to pursue technical accomplishments that were valuable to industries outside of steam. In 1914, he filed the first patent application for a gas turbine, and was recognized in 1950 for his gas turbine work with ASMEs Holley Medal. Later, he worked on torpedo propulsion, and in 1930 patented the Cur tis Scavenging system for removing burned gases from cylinders in two-stroke diesel engines.Despite the great things he did outside the steam industry, it is his work in steam for which he is most remembered. The Pratt Institute Power Plant in New York is the oldest continuously-operating, privately owned, steam-powered electrical generating plant in the country. A 1909 GE Curtis turbine is still one of several turbines periodically operational there today, producing steam, turning, and blowing steam-powered whistles every New Years Eve, a fitting tribute to one of the greatest engineering achievements of the 20th century.Debbie Sniderman is an independent writer.The electric power supply industry grew at an unprecedented rate during 1900 - 1920, thanks to the Curtis vertical steam turbine.

The 5 biggest mistakes people make when looking for a new job
The 5 biggest mistakes people make when looking for a new jobThe 5 biggest mistakes people make when looking for a new jobThey apply for jobs online with mass production speed, using the same resumeSlow down. Recruiters and talent acquisition professionals get an overwhelming number of applicants for each open position and must eliminate most of them. Your resume only stands out from the slush pile as a keeper when the hiring manager can 1) tell that you understand the mission and goals of their organization, 2) have aligned your past experience with the role at hand, 3) have positioned at least one distinct It-Factor that intrigues them.Fashion your resume with the detail of a fine tailor. Reference organizational qualities youve learned from the website. Site news on the company or industry that youve researched online. sttte internal contacts youve developed on LinkedIn and elsewhere as advocates to give you insight into the culture and to open a door for you.They limit their sear ch to the same industry and same size companyIts human nature to stay with what is comfortable. But often people underrate their viability to switch professions because they dont realize their transferable talents. Identify your transferable skills and the industries where they bring value. (Here is a free training course on transferable skills.) Then start conversations with people who work in those industries to broaden your familiarity with the company, industry language and culture.They do not prepare for the interviewI have had clients interview for roles where the final candidate had already been identified yet they secured the job because they wowed the kollektiv on the interview. And I have seen people who have clearly been qualified for a role fail to win the job because of their inept interview skills. Make sure you have good questions to ask. Be able to tell a story about what youve learned through the trials and triumphs of your career. Show dont tell.I am really good at building relationships is subjective. When I started in my career I thought everyone worked the way I do and that management would be easy. I thought I could just define the vision and get out of their way. That wasnt enough. I began to realize the diversity of generations, cultures and personality traits on my team and that I needed to see each member as an individual.I learned the value of meeting with them regularly and tying what we are doing to their personal goals. That is why my attrition is only 6% and we exceeded goals last year by 11%. Thats objective. Thats a story.They dont have a 30-60-90-day plan for the roleWhen you look for a new job your first challenge is not impressing them with how great you are. They wont believe you anyway. It is first convincing them that you are resourceful enough to figure out what you need to do to be successful. Too often candidates like to boast of their accomplishments without context of what else contributed to their success.Hiring man agers want to know that in an imperfect environment you can succeed. Show them that you understand some of the challenges of the company or industry, that you will interview key people in the first 30 days, what you project as short-term wins, and what long-term strategy is required to meet your vision. Create a professional plan on paper for the interview.They havent built their tribeYour tribe is your support network. It is the people in your sphere of influence who advocate and prop you up when you need it and catch you when you fall. Tribes are how we as humans escaped extinction over time. They keep us safe and help us to thrive. We are stronger together than alone. This means that you must also prop others up and catch them as well.Servant leadership underpins a vibrant tribe. Every CEO role I ever secured was due in parte to the influence of my tribe. I won the roles based on my own ability. But I got in the door because of my tribe. Build your tribe at networking events, by deep listening in conversations, participating in discussions on LinkedIn, caring about people, and meeting with key people who you admire.Ask yourself, How can I serve this person? The payoff is downthe road.Good peoplewill want to serve you in return.

Got an offer on the table Dont say yes just yet.
Got an offer on the table Dont say yes just yet.Got an offer on the table Dont say yes just yet.Dont overlook the one thing that will make or break your success.The salary is right, the title is right, the benefits and location are right. You like the people youll be working for. But what about the people youll be working with? Your colleagues and team members? How do you feel about them? If the answer is that youre not sure, you should probably find out. Heres why. Happiness.When you take a job, youre basically joining a social network. Your co-workers become a huge and influential part of your life. Theyre the people you spend fruchtwein of your day with. You kind of need to like them. Its the difference between dreading going into the office every day or looking forward to it. A study from employee engagement company, TINYpulse, found that employees overwhelming responded team members and colleagues when asked what they loved most about their jobs. Growth.You are who you associate yourself with. Its true. If your co-workers are unmotivated and uninterested in doing a great job, their attitude toward work will rub off on you. You will subconsciously try to assimilate yourself with your group. Also, when you join a group where you feel like you dont belong, chances are, you wont be able to get ahead. While its a totally reasonable request to ask to meet with your co workers, its also not something most people do. So be careful how you word it. Something like this is the best way to approach it Im really excited about the position. Before I formally accept, would it be possible to talk with the people Ill be working most closely with to get a sense of how everyone works together? A quick meeting over coffee, or just a quickinformal chat? A good hiring manager should appreciate you wanting to make sure its a good fit for you. If your request is turned down, that says something about your boss and maybe even the company. Its really hard not to see it as a red fla g. Either your boss doesnt think your happiness at work is important, doesnt really care if you take the job, or shes hiding something about the culture that shed rather you didnt know. No reasonable person commits to marriage without getting to know someone. And no reasonable employee should commit to a long-term relationship with co-workers they havent even met. Considering the amount of hours you devote to it, the quality of your professional life should be just as important to you as the quality of your personal one.

They also advise their patients on such matters as preventative care and personal hygiene.Doctors can be general practitioners or choose a specialty, such as internal medicine, cardiology, endocrinology, neurology, oncology, obstetrics, gynecology, or sports medicine. Primary care physicians tend to see the same patients on a regular grund for preventive care and to treat a variety of ailments. General and family practitioners emphasize comprehensive healthcare for patients of all ages and for the family as a group.People who wish to become physicians must have a desire to help people, be self-motivated, and be able to withstand the pressures and long hours of medical education and practice. Physicia ns must also be emotionally strong and have good people and communication skills. They must also be able to relate to their patients as people and work to cure not only the illness but the person as whole. In general, doctors should have a high degree of patience and great compassion for human beings. A day in the lifeMany physicians work in small private offices or clinics, with assistance from a staff of nurses and administrative personnel. Many physicians work long, irregular hours, and must travel frequently between their offices and hospitals to care for their patients. Many physicians are on call, and must therefore deal with patient concerns either over the phone or at their patients homes, and make emergency visits to hospitals or nursing homes. Being a doctor can be a very physically and mentally trying occupation, as they must often be the bearers of bad news, breaking painful news to patients and their families. But it can also be very rewarding to heal people and contin uously improve human lives.Education and trainingIt takes many years of education and training to become a physician. Typically, three to four years of undergraduate school and four years of medical school are required, with three to eight years of internships and residency, depending on the area of specialty. But there are a few medical schools that offer combined undergraduate and medical school programs that last for six years. Premedical students must complete undergraduate work in courses such as physics, biology, mathematics, and chemistry. Medical students spend most of their first two years in laboratories and classrooms taking courses in anatomy, biochemistry, physiology, pharmacology, psychology, microbiology, pathology, medical ethics and law. They also learn to take medical histories, examine patients, and diagnose illnesses.During the last two years of medical school, students work with patients under the supervision of licensed physicians in hospitals and clinics to learn about acute, chronic, preventive, and rehabilitative care. They make rotations within internal medicine, family practice, obstetrics and gynecology, pediatrics, psychiatry, and surgery in order to gain experience in various areas and to help determine their interests and skills. All medical students must be licensed in order to begin practicing medicine. Physicians must graduate from an accredited medical school, pass a licensing examination, and complete one to seven years of graduate medical education to obtain licensure. Physicians licensed in one State can usually get a license to practice in other states with relative ease. Physicians must be involved in continuous career education to keep up with medical advances and to best serve their patients. This will help them respond to the changing demands of todays rapidly developing health care environment.Job outlookAccording to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, employment of physicians will grow about as fast as the average f or all occupations through the year 2010. fruchtwein employment will be due to the expansion of the health care industry as a whole. And the growing and aging population will also cause growth in the demand for physicians. While job prospects may be better for primary care physicians such as general and family practitioners and pediatricians, a substantial number of jobs for specialists will also be created because of the growing demand for specialty care. The number of physicians entering the field has begun to slow, and will likely decline over the next few years. Opportunities are expected to be best in rural and low-income areas, because many physicians find these areas unattractive due to such factors as lower income potential and isolation from the medical society.Related occupations Nursingis the clearest related profession to physicians.
