Rather, I mean "lead" in the sense of shaping events, of taking initiative, of showing not-a-chicken commitment.
Over these 4 years, the mean lead blood levels of workers were reduced from 26.3 SD=12.0) to 8.3 SD=6.9) μg/dL.
A throughput-based analysis reveals that decreasing mean lead times improves the internal operation of production and distribution systems, while reducing lead time variability enhances the satisfaction of consumers.
I don't mean "lead" in the follow-me sense, especially because I doubt many people would flock to a leadership message of "Keep 'Em Guessing!" ("I'm with you! Maybe"). Plus, unpredictability is ride-the-tiger uneasy: How do I know you won't later do to me what you do now to others?
The utilisation cost of the fixed assets (depreciation), the medical, technical and nursing personnel costs are considered as capacity costs that are related to the specific activities through the mean lead times of use.
Using the mean lead concentration of 2.05 μg/L from the Green Decorative mug, the daily dose of lead for the average tea drinker would be 0.728 μg, which exceeds the current MADL.
Using the mean lead concentration of 2.05 μg/L from the Green Decorative mug, the daily dose of lead for the average coffee drinker would be 1.60 μg, which exceeds the current MADL by over three fold.
Using the mean lead concentration of 0.2 μg/L from all cups except the Green Decorative mug, and the average daily coffee intake among coffee drinkers of 0.78 L, the daily dose of lead from coffee consumption would be 0.156 μg.
Mean lead concentrations across all beverage scenarios were 0.18 μg/L in the Black Logo1 mug, 0.2 μg/L in the Black Logo2 mug, 2.05 μg/L in the Green Decorative mug, 0.23 μg/L in the Yellow Decorative mug, 0.21 μg/L in the Red Decorative mug, and 0.2 μg/L in the glass cup (Table 2).
Using the mean lead concentration of 0.2 μg/L from all cups except the Green Decorative mug and the average daily tea intake among tea drinkers of 0.36 L, the daily dose of lead from tea consumption would be 0.071 μg, which is below both the current Proposition 65 NSRL of 15 μg/day and the MADL of 0.5 μg/day.
Of course, lead-painted walls -- especially if deteriorating -- can mean lead on windowsills and floors.
