Ethernet Technology
Ethernet uses a bus or star topology and supports data transfer rates of 10 Mbps (10Base-T), 100 Mbps (10/100Base-T) or 1,000 Mbps (1 Gbps). The Ethernet specification serves as the basis for the IEEE 802.3 standard, which specifies the physical and lower software layers. Ethernet uses the CSMA/CD access method to handle simultaneous demands and is one of the most widely implemented LAN standards. For embedded applications, Ethernet is typically used for remote monitoring or control of data, using the 10 and 100 Mbps transfer rates.
A typical Ethernet system is shown in Figures 1 and 2. The Ethernet controller may be a separate, standalone device, or it may be integrated with the host microcontroller (MCU). The Ethernet controller transmits and receives data from the Ethernet cable and manages Ethernet protocol. Ethernet controllers are often separated into two pieces, the Media Access Control (MAC) and the Physical Layer (PHY).
Media Access Control (MAC)
The MAC provides addressing and channel access control mechanisms for several terminals or network nodes to communicate within a multi-point network, typically a local area network (LAN). As part of the channel access control, it provides multiple access protocol that allows for an automatic re-transmission when a collision occurs. It also emulates a full-duplex logical communication channel in a multi-point network. This channel may provide unicast, multicast or broadcast communication service.
Physical Layer (PHY)
The PHY provides the means of transmitting raw bits over a physical data link (e.g. twisted pair cable). The PHY module interfaces to a signal transformer, which in turn connects to the RJ-45 Ethernet socket. The host controller receives data from the Ethernet controller and applies the necessary protocol rules. The host controller also formats outgoing data and places it into the Ethernet controller transmit buffer.

Boston Red Sox defeat Kansas City Royals, 5-2
KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- If you called it a night after eight innings last night, turning off the TV with your Red Sox ahead, 5-0, against a Royals team that was outscored, 158-71, in its last 22 games, 20 of them losses, you awoke this morning to find that Kansas City plated two in the ninth and brought the tying run to the plate. This, on Day 1 of Mike Timlin working closing time. And perhaps you panicked a bit.
''If they were sitting up watching the game," Timlin said, ''...

Below is an observation of negotiations in the National Basketball League, concerning the Washington Bullets' star player Juwan Howard, the Washington Bullets' General Manager, and the Miami Heat's General Manager in a "bidding war" for Juwan Howard's employment with the NBA (Brubaker, Asher, Solomon, and Adande, n.d.). The observation includes a brief summary and analysis of the negotiations between Howard and the bidding teams. The analysis also includes an evaluation of the tangible and intangible benefits, costs, and risks associated with negotiations with Howard as a free agent, given the perspective of all parties involved.
The Case of Juwan HowardJuwan Howard, a budding star in the National Basketball Association (NBA), became the focus of a complex struggle of team allegiances, contract negotiations, and player bargaining between two teams in the NBA. The Washington Bullets, who drafted Howard in 1994, offered Howard an initial salary (11 years, $37.5
million), with an option to become a free agent after the second year of the deal. According to Howard, the deal represented an amount that was less than his value. He signed the contract reluctantly. After two seasons, his play on the court forced the NBA to take notice of Howard as a viable commodity in the league. In addition to his play on the court, Howard was active in the Washington D.C. community, and he existed as a fan favorite. In the summer of 1996, Howard experienced his first case of players recruiting him from other teams. This made Howard feel good about his play and his standing as an NBA talent.
David Faulk, Howard's agent, began to negotiate Howard's free agent deal. He essentially began to 'shop' Howard to the league in order to garner offers from other teams. Early in the summer of 1996, Faulk...

CONCACAF: Mexicans favourites again as Champions League resumes
The CONCACAF Champions League resumes this week with an interesting fixture list as the competition commences its knockout stages. There are two all-Mexican affairs as well as an all-American encounter and an intriging match-up involving the record champions of Costa Rica and Honduras. Stoppage Time – International Football Blog looks ahead to the last eight clashes.
With Mexican clubs dominating this tournament in recent years the odds are very favourable that this pattern of events will continue this season although one big relief for the rest of the opposition is that the Mexican contingent will be cut by half in the quarter-final stages. Group B winners Santos Laguna, who came top of a group containing Columbus Crew, Municipal CSD and Joe Public FC, will meet compatriots Cruz Azul who have not enjoyed their fair share of luck in this tournament in recent years. The last time Los Cementos won this tournament was in its former guise of the Champions Cup in 1997 but since then have lost the last two Champions League finals against Atlante FC (2008-09) and Pachuca CF (2009-10). If they are to make it third time lucky then they will have to get the better of a Mexican side in both the next two rounds.
That's because the winners of this game are due to meet the winners of the other all-Mexican clash between Deportivo Toluca and current Mexican champions Monterrey CF. Deportivo Toluca, at the time of writing, have the fourth best record in the current Mexican Clausura championship and are in good form coming into their quarter-final against Apertura champions Monterrey who are hoping to win the continent's biggest prize for the first time in thier history. Monterrey finished top of Group D ahead of Deportivo Saprissa, CD Marathón and Seattle Sounders with the best record of 5-1-0 in the group stage whilst Toluca had to be satisifed with second spot in Group C behind Olimpia.
The all-American affair between Columbus Crew and Real Salt Lake will be much anticipated especially as the competition is awaiting its first winner from Major League Soccer. 2009 MLS champions Real Salt Lake finished ahead of Cruz Azul at the top of Group A and will prove a stern test for 2008 MLS champions Columbus Crew who had to contend with second spot in Group B behind Santos Laguna. But, with the 2011 MLS season not beginning until March 15th, both teams will want to lay down a marker ahead of the new domestic season with success on the international stage. The final quarter-final sees Costa Rican giants Deportivo Saprissa, three-time winners and the last team from outside Mexico to win this tournament in 2005, face up to the challenge of Hondurans CD Olimpia who won the second of their two continental titles to date in 1988. Saprissa finished six points behind Monterrey in their group whilst Olimpia pipped Toluca to the top in Group D by three points and the winners of this quarter-final will meet the victors of the all-American clash.
The first legs of the quarter-finals will be played on February 22-24 with the second legs following on March 1-3.
CONCACAF CHAMPIONS LEAGUE QUARTER-FINAL DRAW (All two-legged ties – team on left at home in 1st leg)
1. Deportivo Toluca v Monterrey CF
2. Cruz Azul v Santos Laguna
3. Columbus Crew v Real Salt Lake
4. Deportivo Saprissa v CD Olimpia
5. Winner Match 1 v Winner Match 2
6. Winner Match 3 v Winner Match 4

text: Silenterror 600 Report post Posted January 26, 2018 Dear Community, Today I want to show you guys some pictures of the new Battle Royale map that's coming soon. I would also like to update you all about how far we are and what is left to be done. We added a new Battle Royale map few months ago called Arizona. After the Beta phase, we realised, the map is to big at the moment and don't have enogh play-areas. We came up with the idea, to pick that map and make it smaller. The live arizona map is around 6000x6000 and the reworked one will be around 2000x2000. This will make the rounds quicker and you can easly walk from place to place. Cars will still in there but not that many anymore because of the "car battle" at the end of every round what we don't want. Status right now is, the hills on the map are painted and I am placing all the towns and also paint them. I would say 30% is already done and a lot of new places got created. Also one of the ideas of arizonav2 is, to make the map smaller and mix arizona with our old BR map arena. As soon the map is online and playable, you will see some places from arena. I am trying to implement them as good as I can. Since I am not a fan of just placing a town and go next, I also create really nice looking new places. I will try to update that thread as often as I can and i hope, you guys are hyped like I am. Here are some pictures, so you guys see a small part. If you have any questions or if you'd like to share your ideas with us feel free to let us know. In this post we will keep you updated regarding progress. Best regards, // Steve // The New Z Staff 3 5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

New Face of Hamas – Same as the Old
by Frimet Roth
Each year, we visit our child's grave on the day of her murder. And with the passing years our grief acquires fresh layers.
In 2011, we grappled with the travesty of justice that befell us via the Shalit Deal. This week, we gathered at the cemetery with the knowledge that Hamas, the cult that dispatched her killers, has gone through a makeover.
Once considered a dire threat to Israel, Hamas is now overshadowed by the maelstrom of Iran's nuclear threat and ISIS conquests.
Some experts even suggest that in comparison with the Gaza chapters of ISIS and Al Qaeda, Hamas is a less insidious brand of terrorism. Others don't even see it as a danger to Israel, while still others embrace it sympathetically.
Related coverage
In recent weeks, to commemorate the 2014 Gaza war, news networks have intensified their quest for the video clip that most compellingly depicts the Gaza situation. Evoking pathos for the Gazans' plight, their journalists blame Israel for that war, its casualties, its aftermath, the increasingly dismal Gazan economy and the suffering of the Gazan children. Hamas rarely get so much as a slap on the wrist.
To be fair, Israel has itself been turning a blind eye to the Hamas threat. Censured for Operation Protective Edge, launched to eradicate lethal infiltration tunnels and missile attacks from Gaza, prime minister Binyamin Netanyahu is now trying to curry favor with the West. One of the results is that the embargo imposed by Israel on Gaza in 2009 has effectively been scuttled.
As the numbers below testify, Israel's blockade of Gaza continues in theory only. De facto, there is bustling two-way traffic of myriad sorts: 115,000 Gazans crossed at the Erez Terminal for medical treatment in Israel and abroad in 2014. Roughly 1,000 Gazans, among them hundreds of merchants, crossed it on any given day during 2015 along with six to eight hundred trucks carrying thousands of tons of humanitarian, construction and consumer goods.
From daily statistics compiled by COGAT, the Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territories, we learn that on July 28, 2015 – a random date – of the 1,525 people traversing the Erez crossing, 95 were foreigners, 208 were humanitarian travelers, 919 were merchants and 302 were designated "others". The nearly 600 trucks entering Gaza that day delivered 17,162 tons of goods.
All this occurs while the IDF knows that Hamas terrorists are digging new attack tunnels under the border, its weapons factories continue to churn out rockets and it conducts guerrilla-style combat training drills. All right under Israel's nose.
According to a source in the IDF's Southern Command, Hamas has not yet restored its rocket arsenal to pre-August 2014 levels, but it is steadily nearing that goal and will seek to exceed it (sources: Ynet and Times of Israel). Nevertheless, the traffic at the Erez crossing continues. Israel is complacent.
There is an ugly truth absent from the above state of affairs. And this is the perfect time to draw attention to it.
Fourteen years ago, a terrorist squad in the service of Hamas targeted innocent Jews, mainly children, having lunch at the Sbarro pizzeria in the center of Jerusalem. It was the height of the summer school vacation and mothers were out in droves spending time with their children.
One of the terrorists, Ahlam Tamimi, who survived the explosion after telling the human bomb to give her a few minutes to get away, boasted afterwards of how she had conducted several earlier forays into the city scouting for a venue that attracted the greatest number of women and children in the early afternoon hours.
This is a crucial detail. The eight children killed there that day, out of a total of fifteen dead, in the ensuing massacre were not collateral damage. They were not caught in any cross-fire. They were not stuck in some building that housed weapons or fighters. They were targeted.
Their murderer, Tamimi, the chief plotter of the Sbarro attack, has boasted of this repeatedly to Arab interviewers.
The Hamas human bomb, Al Masri, bore 10 kg. of nail-enhanced explosives on his back, concealed within a guitar case. He, along with the explosive components, was transported from east to west Jerusalem by Tamimi, who disguised herself to look like a young Israeli woman. He was eager to kill – not merely Jews; not merely children; but as Tamimi later related, specifically religious ones. She was filmed saying proudly that she assured Al Masri her target would satisfy his blood thirst.
Lest anyone imagine that Hamas is rehabilitated, here are some facts to clear that up that delusion.
Hamas today employs Tamimi as a high-profile inciter to terror. She has her own weekly TV program on Al Quds, a global Hamas television station, broadcasting by satellite to Arabic-language speakers throughout the world. She collects a monthly stipend from the Palestinian Authority, for which the funding is predominantly from Europe. Hamas flies Tamimi overseas routinely to address fans, to incite budding terrorists and to receive sundry awards and trophies for her act of "heroism". Between 2011 and 2014, she visited Algeria, Jordan, Kuwait, Lebanon, Qatar, Tunisia and Yemen.
Hamas' lust for murdering Jewish children is alive and well. It is being dispersed beyond Gaza's borders and endangers every Israeli.
Complacency is a chilling stance for Israel to take. It was just such an attitude that enabled the Sbarro massacre to be perpetrated. Several days later, the Minister of Justice revealed that on the morning of August 9, 2001, all the relevant arms of the government were aware that Hamas operatives, armed with explosives, were making their way to the capital intending to bomb and murder as many innocents as possible. They decided not to warn the public. They opted not to empty the streets. They relied on police patrols scouring the summer crowds for suspicious-looking individuals.
Fifteen precious souls perished because of that lame, blasé response – among them my precious Malki.

1.What's the Difference Among Font Authorization?
FontKe.com is a sharing platform, on which any fonts are not authorized and you should obey the authorization regulation of foundries or font designers and use it within reasonable range. Here are some main authorization method:
Commercial: Commercial Fonts are the version that published legally and you should purchase it to use it.
Freeware: Freeware means you can use it unlimited(including personal use and commercial use). But you can not use the whole function of it. Some of the freeware are donated or volunteer financed so the font designer can get paid.
Personal Freeware: is smaller than Freeware which means personal user can use it unlimited (not including commercial use) and you might not be able to use the whole function of it.
Shareware: includes Trailware means "Use it then Pay it". According to the authorization, you can got the copy and spread it for free from the designers. You can try it and pay it if you like it. If you do not think it is worthy it, you can stop using it.
Demoware is very close to Trailware. But Demoware usually do not deduct the amount of glyphes but it will add some special marks or DEMO on the glyphes.
Free Software is totally unlimited. According to related free software agreement, anyone can make it again or use it commercially, sometimes, they will even provide the source code of the font. So this is also called Open Source.

30 Days Wild 2017 in Berkshire and Buckinghamshire
PUBLISHED: 16:03 01 June 2017 | UPDATED: 16:26 01 June 2017
It's easy, fun and will make you glow! Try a Random Act of Wildness with your family every day this June
Seeing the world through the eyes of our children is one of the best ways to enjoy 30 Days Wild, the Wildlife Trust's annual campaign to encourage all of us to be a little bit closer to nature.
Going on daily adventures to explore and discover is all part of 30 Days Wild, which nature blogger Sue Croxford did with her family last year. "All 30 days were adventures in their own ways and we relished the challenge to do something wild every day for a month," Sue recalls. "Some days we strolled through a local nature reserve to see what treasures we could find, climbed trees in the woods or played in the stream.
"Often we just stayed at home and explored our back garden, hunting for bugs, observing the baby birds and their attentive parents or watching an orange tip butterfly lay her precious eggs."
Sue, who lives in Monks Risborough, Buckinghamshire, was lucky enough to borrow a moth trap and set it up in the garden overnight: "The next morning it felt like Christmas as we all got up early to open it, still in our pyjamas, to see what we'd caught. Another day I surprised the children by collecting them from school and taking them straight to our local woods to have a go at pond dipping. What's not to love about messing about in a muddy pond in wellies and your school uniform?"
30 Days Wild is now in its third year as a nationwide campaign to encourage more people to discover their local nature in easy ways, and feel the benefits. Researchers at the University of Derby asked people taking part in 30 Days Wild how they felt after finishing the challenge. Dr Miles Richardson, Director of Psychology, who led the study, said: "The impact of 30 Days Wild adds to the compelling argument for bringing nature into our everyday lives. Two months after taking part in 30 Days Wild, there was a 30 per cent increase in the number of people who reported their health as excellent.
"Last year's results also show people's happiness continued to improve after 30 Days Wild ended, which illustrates its sustained impact. This is important as it is happiness and connecting with nature that influence improvements in health. Our study also shows that those who benefitted most were younger adults and those who weren't 'nature lovers'."
Random acts of wildness were the best, says Sue: "Many of our activities were unplanned and just seemed to happen as we went about our daily routine.
"We had a competition to see who could spot the most birds on the walk to school, the children read their favourite books about wildlife to the dog and they had a lovely time racing snails at their school summer fair. We kept our eyes open, enjoyed being outdoors and had no trouble finding something wild to do every day."
One of the highlights was a glow-worm hunt. Sue wrote in her blog: "We stumbled through the darkness, intruding on a secret nocturnal world. Torch beams bounced off the towering tree trunks, casting eerie shadows and hidden places. Our senses heightened by the darkness, it felt like a thousand pairs of curious eyes were peering at us from every nook and cranny.
"We could see bats swooping above us, visible as they crossed through breaks in the tree cover. A fox barked its anguished scream nearby, making us freeze and hold our breath. Seeking reassurance, my daughter slipped her hand into mine and we carried on through the woods and out onto the grass slope.
"We began our hunt, but even as our eyes became accustomed to the darkness we had to be careful not to trip over ant hills or fall down a rabbit hole. We scoured the long grass, searching for a magical speck of green light. Eventually we found one, then another and another and our faces, quite literally, lit up with joy. We'd found our first female glow-worms attempting to attract a mate."
Sue and her family will be taking part again in June: "We're hoping the red kites nesting in the back garden will manage to raise chicks this year. The eggs should hatch at the start of June, so we'll be watching them closely. Most of all we're looking forward to lots of surprises and being part of something as special as 30 Days Wild. It's easy, it's fun and it will make you glow, so why not give it a go too."

What will you do?
• Be inspired by these suggestions and create your own. Share them with others using #30DaysWild and see them on the BBOWT website bbowt.org.uk
• Create artwork in the wild using leaves, pine cones, twigs, feathers and pebbles. Take a photo and share on social media #30DaysWild.
• Take Ten. Just 10 minutes sitting outside listening to birdsong and other sounds of nature is very calming, especially if you can sit beside a river or a lake.
• Make your own pollinators' patch at home with a tub or hanging basket of nectar-rich flowers and watch the butterflies and bees move in.
• Meet the neighbours: create a hedgehog highway by putting a CD size hole in your fence and encourage your neighbours to do the same thing; you will help any local hedgehogs travel the 1-2km that they do each night.
• Start a nature table at school or at home. Feathers, snail shells, mosses, flower petals and old bird's nests make great talking points.
• Go for an early morning walk, you'll be amazed to discover the different creatures that are about at dawn; hear the dawn chorus and catch the perfume of garden flowers before the heat of the day.
• Explore a local nature site. Take a walk around a churchyard or local park to discover wildlife in hidden places.
• Admire the setting sun from the top of the Chiltern Hills or Berkshire Downs, a riverside pub garden, or your bedroom window. Listen to birds going to roost, and watch bats taking their first flight of the night.

Posted Mon 29 Feb 2016 7.39pm by isy9512Psoriasis mainly on my arms, self-conscious especially in summer, embarrassed which prevents me from taking my hoodie or jumper off when I'm
Hi all, 6 months ago (August 2015) I went on holiday for a week. One day I went to the beach for the whole day and I forgot to put sun cream on (stupid I know)! This resulted in my arms and legs becoming sunburnt...and I mean really sunburnt! It was extremely painful on the days that followed. Even now, 6 months on, I still have a distinctive tan/burn line on my arms and legs (I have psoriasis on my arms and legs). I was using dovobet to manage my psoriasis and it was working very well, but then I stopped after I got sunburnt. Now I want to start managing my psoriasis again, I want to know if it's safe for me to use the dovobet on my, previously sunburnt but now healed, skin? Does anyone else have experience of getting sunburnt and then not knowing whether to apply the same topical cream that they were using beforehand? I would see my GP, but my health centre is extremely busy at the moment, currently a 3 week wait for an appointment! So I wanted to ask on here and see if anyone else has been in a similar situation and if I can get some advice. Thanks :)
Posted Thu 24 Mar 2016 3.17am by AltearaI had my 'trigger' when I was 14, crazy things were happening with my friends and also my dad died. At first it was really bad. It destroyed
Hey Isy,
I got sunburn at a festival once (I feel asleep at midday in a deck chair with no top on and none of my friends woke me up, douche bags I know), For me it actually got rid of my psoriasis and just replaced it with sunburn, after it healed the psoriasis returned and I just began using the same cream (Dovobet) like normal. I didn't experience any problems so I think your good to go. I know you posted like a month ago but hope this helps.

Health Benefits:
During intense exercise muscle fibres break down and the muscles go into protein synthesis to re-build. To gain muscle mass, protein synthesis must exceed
protein breakdown. A diet rich in protein is the raw material needed for protein synthesis to occur. Per 100g Organic Pumpkin Seed Protein Powder
is 65% pure protein containing all available amino acids and is perfect for those looking to boost protein levels in the body. A low
sugar powder with a good amount of essential fatty acids means this supplement is the perfect sports nutrition companion.
High in: Protein – 65% per 100g
Daily Serving:
Use as required. 5-20 grams daily.
Quality and Manufacture:
This Organic Pumpkin Seed Protein Powder is made from 100% organically certified pumpkins from the EU. Pumpkin seed protein powder is the by product
from cold pressing the organic pumpkin seed at a temperature less than 42°C. After all the oil has been pressed from the seed the
resulting 'cake' is then milled into a fine powder by specially designed flour mills for higher fat content food materials. The flour is then
sieved 3 times which results in a very fine totally Organic Pumpkin Seed Powder. After toxicology testing for foreign bacteria's and heavy metals the
powder is ready to be packed and shipped.

The choice of piecewise polynomials of degree 3 for interpolation is justifiably popular: even-degree splines are algebraically awkward to construct, degree 1 is simply piecewise linear interpolation (not smooth), and degree 5, while feasible, entails juggling too many coefficients. Besides, a cubic polynomial minimizes the amount of wiggling (the integral of second derivative squared) for given values and slopes at the endpoints of an interval. (Recall Connecting dots naturally.)
But the derivative of a cubic spline is a quadratic spline. And one needs the derivative to find the critical points. This results in an awkward example in SciPy documentation, annotated with "(NB: sproot only works for order 3 splines, so we fit an order 4 spline)".
Although not implemented in SciPy, the task of computing the roots of a quadratic spline is a simple one. Obtaining the roots from the internal representation of a quadratic spline in SciPy (as a linear combination of B-splines) would take some work and reading. But a quadratic polynomial is determined by three values, so sampling it at three points, such as two consecutive knots and their average, is enough.
Quadratic formula with values instead of coefficients
Suppose we know the values of a quadratic polynomial q at -1, 0, 1, and wish to find if it has roots between -1 and 1. Let's normalize so that q(0)=1, and let x = q(-1), y = q(1). If either x or y is negative, there is definitely a root on the interval. If they are positive, there is still a chance: we need the parabola to be concave up, have a minimum within [-1, 1], and for the minimum to be negative. All of this is easily determined once we note that the coefficients of the polynomial are a = (x+y)/2 – 1, b = (y-x)/2, and c = 1.
The inequality ensures the suitable sign of the discriminant. It describes a parabola with vertex (1, 1) and focus (2, 2), contained in the first quadrant and tangent to the axes at (4, 0) and (0, 4). Within the orange region there are no real roots.
The line x+y=2, tangent to the parabola at its vertex, separates convex and concave parabolas. While concavity in conjunction with x, y being positive definitely precludes having roots in [-1, 1], slight convexity is not much better: it results in real roots outside of the interval. Here is the complete picture: green means there is a root in [-1, 1], orange means no real roots, red covers the rest.
Back to splines
Since the derivative of a spline is implemented in SciPy (B-splines have a nice formula for derivatives), all we need is a root-finding routine for quadratic splines. Here it is, based on the above observations but using built-in NumPy polynomial solver np.roots to avoid dealing with various special cases for the coefficients.
def quadratic_spline_roots(spl): roots = [] knots = spl.get_knots() for a, b in zip(knots[:-1], knots[1:]): u, v, w = spl(a), spl((a+b)/2), spl(b) t = np.roots([u+w-2*v, w-u, 2*v]) t = t[np.isreal(t) & (np.abs(t) <= 1)] roots.extend(t*(b-a)/2 + (b+a)/2) return np.array(roots)
A demonstration, which plots the spline (blue), its critical points (red), and original data points (black) as follows:
import numpy as np import matplotlib.pyplot as plt from scipy.interpolate import InterpolatedUnivariateSpline x = np.arange(7) y = np.array([3, 1, 1, 2, 2, 4, 3]) f = InterpolatedUnivariateSpline(x, y, k=3) crit_pts = quadratic_spline_roots(f.derivative()) t = np.linspace(x[0], x[-1], 500) plt.plot(t, f(t)) plt.plot(x, y, 'kd') plt.plot(crit_pts, f(crit_pts), 'ro') plt.show()

Globally, 56 billion animals are raised and killed each year, with grave environmental consequences that contribute to climate change.
Nearly 1/5 of all greenhouse gases are attributed to livestock production – more than what is generated by transportation.
70% of crops grown are fed to livestock, which produce large amounts of waste and methane – a heat-trapping gas more than 25 times more potent than carbon dioxide.
30% of the land on Earth is in some way used to raise the animals we eat, which results in land degradation, loss of biodiversity, air and water pollution, and water shortages.
Going plant-based is not only nutritionally sufficient, but also may reduce the risk of many illnesses.
The US Geological Survey shows that industrial livestock farms are a significant factor behind poor water quality.
Both workers of industrial livestock farms, as well as residents living in the vicinity of an industrial livestock farm, experience higher levels of respiratory problems.
The food on one's plate travels, on average, a distance of 1,500 miles. Locally grown food tastes better than food grown at a distance, as it is generally safer and fresher.
Knowing the producers enables us to assess the quality of food, and having multiple small food producers limits the extent of harmful substances that may make it into the food system.
Industrial livestock farms create very few jobs; and, in fact, drastically reduce jobs when they replace family farms, causing individual farmers in the US to suffer.
There's more you can do to participate in Ethical Eating Day besides simply taking the pledge. Help spread the word about this important movement via social media. And please join us at a local event near you.
Show us how you'll make a difference this year and hinder the progression of climate change. Share your #EthicalEatingDay photo – circulate the joy to your family and friends!

Former supermodel, actress, TV producer and presenter Tyra Banks has slammed what she calls "the fat talk habit".
Speaking on The Tubridy Show on 2fm this morning, Banks explained this newly labelled trend: "Fat Talk is when women put themselves down, when they look in the mirror and say 'I'm fat, I'm disgusting, my thighs are these huge thunderous things'.
"Sometimes they do it to their loved ones, their romantic partner, sometimes in front of their daughters, sometimes they do it with friends and it's a negative thing.
"It doesn't help women manage their weight, when women participate in this 'Fat Talk', the more they do it, the less likely they are to get the healthy body that they want.
"The things that women say about themselves, they would never say to another woman because it would be considered mean and disgusting and hateful. Yet women say it to themselves.
"I've partnered with Special K to fight 'Fat Talk' and to put a positive attitude to manage weight so women feel better about themselves and find the beauty inside themselves as opposed to this negative, damaging conversation."

It appears the calendar gods have aligned: Monday is Halloween, and Portlanders have new plastic pails.
So the question is, "Trick or treat?"
Many Portlanders haven't decided yet when it comes to the city's curbside composting program -- the reason for those buckets -- as it launches Monday.
"I guess I would leave the irony for others to determine," said Bruce Walker, the city's solid waste and recycling program manager. "It was a practical decision to start off at the start of November. ... When we landed with Halloween, we said, 'Well, that's just the way it is.'"
City officials are bracing for a confusing first week, as roughly 145,000 customers switch to weekly food and yard debris pickup but only every-other-week garbage service. Here are a few answers to common questions.
Will I receive garbage service this week or next week?
About half of customers will get trash collection this week, the rest next week -- with both on an every-other-week schedule from now on. To find your schedule, visit
and click on "
." From there, type in your address.
Is my collection day the same as it is now?
It depends. Follow the steps above to find out. For more information, call the city's hotline at 503-823-7202, which will also take calls Saturday until 6 p.m.
I don't live inside city limits, but I got a bucket. Is it possible I'm part of the new system?
Yes. About 1,500 homes that aren't inside Portland proper are also making the switch. Under a cooperative agreement, Portland has managed garbage service in unincorporated Multnomah County since 1992, Walker said.
Why are we making the change?
"It's cost-effective, and it uses a waste product to develop a valuable commodity," Susan Anderson, director of
, said in August, when the City Council approved the program. Finances and environmental concerns are factors. It's cheaper to compost than dump garbage. Diverting food waste from landfills to composting facilities reduces carbon emissions. And the end product can be reused -- and resold -- as fertilizer.
And my food scraps go where?
Residents will toss unwanted food -- coffee grounds, bones, rotten vegetables, uneaten meat and even discarded pizza boxes -- into the green carts now used only for yard waste. You can use the new kitchen pails to transfer your food scraps to the larger bin.
Hey, Portland government, how do you think this first week will pan out?
"That's a good question," Walker said. "I think we will still get many calls with questions about how to do the food composting, and then also questions about the schedule change. That's what I'd anticipate much of the conversation (this) week to be. But I guess we'll find that out."

Syncing those to an external email client with IMAP may lead to emails getting imported in random places in your client. You'll also need to deal with keeping several GB of data in sync. These instructions apply to Outlook 2019, 2016, 2013, 2010, and Outlook for Microsoft 365. Add Gmail to Outlook Using a POP Server You can set up Gmail as a POP account in Outlook, however, you'll have to disable two-step verification first, as the Outlook app won't ask for a verification code. Make sure you've enabled POP access for the Gmail account. Open the Outlook desktop app. Click File > Account Settings (in the Info section) and choose Account Settings from the drop-down menu. In the Account Settings window, go to the Email tab. Click New to add a new external email account for POP access. Type your Gmail address in the blank field. Under Advanced options, check the box next to Let me set up my account manually. Click Connect to continue. On the Advanced Setup window, select POP from the list of options. On the next screen, type your Gmail account password, then hit Connect. Outlook will connect to your Gmail account using your credentials. Once it's finished, you should see a new window with a success message. Click Done to finish, and you'll see the new Gmail account displayed in your list of Outlook email accounts. To test that your new Gmail POP account works, go to the Send/Receive menu in Outlook, and click Send/Receive All Folders. You should see a status window pop up that shows the send/receive syncing process. When it's finished, email messages from your Gmail account will appear in the Outlook inbox under that account. If your Gmail account has a lot of emails, the syncing process could take hours. Every sync session that takes place uploads a block of messages at a time, starting with the oldest ones and finishing with your most recent. Adding Gmail POP access in Outlook Mobile You can also sync your Gmail account via POP in the Outlook mobile app which is available for Android and iOS. Once you have the Outlook app installed, add your Gmail account via POP as follows. Once you launch the Outlook app, it'll recognize any email accounts you've signed into on your smartphone. If you're using an Android device, the odds are good you're already signed into your Gmail account. When you select the Google account, the Outlook app will request permission to access it. You'll see another screen with your email accounts. Select your Gmail account from the list. Again, confirm permissions for the Outlook app to access your Gmail account. When you've finished, you'll see your Gmail account emails in the Gmail inbox inside the Outlook mobile app. If you ever want to add more Gmail accounts to your Outlook mobile app, tap the menu icon and select the gear settings icon. In the Settings screen, you can tap Add Account to add another Gmail account (or any other external email account that supports POP access). Then repeat the same process as when you set up the first Gmail account.

STIHL introduces the new TS 500i STIHL Cutquik®, the world's first electronically controlled fuel injected cut-off machine in the handheld outdoor power equipment industry. Simplified starting procedure means no choke - just purge it and pull it. Compared to the industry leading TS 420, the TS 500i has 17% more power and only 6% more weight. Plus, the TS 500i features a new automatic water control system. It delivers perfect dust suppression at the push of a button and allows you to precisely meter the water supply. The X2 air filtration system provides an outstanding 99.96% cleaning efficiency. Powerful, lightweight and well-balanced, the STIHL TS 500i is designed for superior handling during the toughest jobs.
The most important STIHL injection components:
1. Generator
The generator produces all the electricity required to power the control unit
and operate the cut-off machine. It does this right from the first rotation of the
crankshaft during start-up.
2. Sensor
The sensor measures the temperature and pressure in the crank chamber.
This information is then transmitted to the control unit.
3. Control Unit
The control unit is the most crucial part of the STIHL Injection system. It
continuously analyses the information transmitted by the generator and the
sensor, and regulates the fuel injection and ignition accordingly.
4. Fuel Injection Pump
The fuel injection pump keeps the fuel pressure constant. This guarantees that
the fuel injector is always supplied with sufficient fuel at just the right pressure.
5. Fuel Injector
The control unit triggers the fuel injector, which injects the optimal amount of
fuel directly into the crankcase. This procedure is synchronized with the engine cycle.
Experience the new fuel injection technology from our TS 500i in 3D

Tip Jar
Groovy, moody, mysterious, passionate & sexy. This song has it all; a tight groove and great bass line, tasty keyboard work with sparsely used sound effects but what stands out is an amazing vocal track. One off the smoothest singers you will ever hear, she brings a feeling of yearning and desire to the track and gives it sex appeal!! The song climaxes with a bridge that just blows up! Youll be very surprised where this song goes when you hear the orchestral bridge that leads into the perfect guitar solo. A very pleasing track to listen to; inspirational and almost euphoric, this one will take you on a journey.
Loved the vibe. Instrumentation and arrangement was nice. Perfect style for this instrumental. Can definitely hear this song in a movie. Great job!
Very enchanting voice and a really cool arrangement. Overall, just a really easy song to listen to.
Time goes too fast to remember
Im blind from your lies but wont surrender
In a day in a life, what to say how to survive
Empty days and lonely night keep, pulling me closer
Theyre pulling me closer to you
Im fallin deeper, fallin deeper still
But I wont loose the will to survive
Tears are too many to recover
Im in fear, more painful than another
Look at me and lay me down
Go to sleep and pray for dawn
Another time to run and hide but Youre, pulling me closer
Theyre pulling me closer to you
Im fallin deeper, fallin deeper still
But I wont loose the will to survive

Our destinations
Mancomunidad del Abadengo
On the west side of Salamanca, the orography rushes giddily towards an outstanding landscape of striking deep granitic canyons which deserved the denomination of Nature Reserve, not only because of its wealth of the fauna and the botany but also because of the beauty of its scenery, where the slopes descend speedily towards the river Duero.
This area has mild climate and special vegetation which it´s completely different from the one in the province of Salamanca. It´s an exceptional and privileged ecosystem which shapes one of the most singular and impressive sceneries of the whole Iberian Peninsula.

Haunted heart
Writers howard dietz, arthur schwartz
In the night though we're apart, there's a ghost of you within my haunted heart.
Ghost of you, my lost romance, lips that laughed, eyes that shine.
Haunted heart won't let me be, dreams repeat a sweet but lonely song to me.
Dreams are just, it's you who must belong to me, and thrill my haunted heart,
Be still, my haunted heart.

Find out what your peers are saying about Veeam Software, Commvault, Zerto and others in Backup and Recovery Software. Updated: November 2020.
447,546 professionals have used our research since 2012.
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
"Global deduplication and the indexing of the data object are the most valuable features. It saves costs on the product side by doing compression and deduplication. It will help you and make your life easy to reach the data that you need within the minimum downtime when it's required."
"In the VM, we have Live Recovery, Live Mount, and Live Sync."
"It is much more scalable and flexible than everything else in the market."
"It's the leader in backup and archiving."
"It's very stable."
"It's a complete software that can protect all the main applications. Perhaps that's the feature I like most. The integration with the NetApp and other apps is also very nice."
"We are using a KVM system in our cloud, and this solution works very well with it."
"The solution provides us with a single platform to move, manage, and recover our data across on-premise locations. Some of the guys have been using it to move a virtual machine from VMware to the Microsoft solution, Hyper-V. They back it up and then they restore to the different virtual machine provider, and that works great."
"The solution is very stable."
"It does not slow down your computer or use a lot of resources as it works."
"Technical support handled all our issues quickly and effectively."
"It seems reliable and easy to use."
"The Granular Restore of SQL feature has been a lifesaver more times than I can count. One of the main reasons for looking at Carbonite was their support for platforms like AIX and AS/400 Series."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is that it is simple to use."
"The setup is not that straightforward or easy. Even the documentation is not generic or public like other products. You have to be a partner or you have to have a specific account and download it from the vendor themselves."
"We previously had difficulty with the support being foreign."
"Support for this product needs to be improved because I have seen a couple of cases where it is taking more than the required time to solve issues."
"Its competitor, Veeam, includes backup and replication in the same product. I don't know if Commvault has it or not, but they should if they don't."
"The back of virtual machines needs improvement. I know they're working on it. They're always doing new things but I think they still have a little bit more to do."
"I think the one thing that could be improved is the customer experience. The interface should be more user friendly."
"This solution can be complex and difficult to administer because it supports all of the many platforms, so it would help if they could simplify it."
"Just to keep it running is time-consuming. There are five people on my team. Commvault was supposed to be one of the less time-consuming solutions, but in reality it takes 60 percent of our time just to keep it running, and that's not even fine-tuning it; that's just to keep it running."
"In the next release I would like to see an improvement in the auto failover option."
"They do not yet have USB recovery but they are adding it in coming releases."
"The support for object storage isn't quite there yet. Its public cloud support can be improved. I would love to see the public cloud support for object storage, and it would be great, but what I always hear from the folks at Carbonite is that in a lot of cases, it directly competes with their cloud offering. So, I don't know when or where that will go or if that will go anywhere, but we are hopeful to see something. The dashboard is a little outdated. If they gave it a facelift and put some better design around their dashboard, that would be tremendous. I generally care less about the visual aesthetics of an application as long as it does what it needed to do, which is true in the case of this solution. We also have the Microsoft 365 platform. Because they're two separate platforms, I have to log in to my Microsoft platform to manage it, and I have to log into my Carbonite server backup platform to manage it. Having these two coexist together in one management console is really what we're looking for, but we went for it knowing this. We also knew that there would be some integration coming down the road. So, we're again hoping to see some of that coming in 2021."
"I would like to be able to limit the bandwidth in cases, for example, where we are uploading the backup."
Pricing and Cost Advice
"Compared to other competitors and vendors the pricing is fair."
"In my experience, compared to solutions like Veritas and Veeam, while they do have their technical pluses and minuses, Commvault can save you on average forty percent initially, and then twenty to twenty-five percent annually."
"The price could perhaps be lower as well."
"Our cost is around $20,000 per month. The previous year, it was around $30,000 per month. It now costs less because Commvault changed the licensing type for providers."
"Our yearly cost is around €20,000... The cost is based on the number of users and the amount of data. They sell it per terabyte."
"There is a bit of cost involved with signing up the entire solution. It's not a cheap solution."
"Commvault licensing is a perpetual license so only the support is being renewed yearly."
"The complete license gives us options for all the features. Commvault does not license based on storage or the management components. It can integrate with any storage vendor. That means that when we are out of storage and need more, we can integrate without additional licensing. In my opinion, Commvault needs to reduce the licensing cost by 20 to 40 percent to make it cost-efficient."
"We pay 9,000 dollars per year for our license."
"The pricing is between $120 and $150 per year."
"Our licensing fees are billed every four months."

Manuel A. R. Ferreira, "Cytokine expression in allergic inflammation: systematic review of in vivo challenge studies", Mediators of Inflammation, vol. 12, Article ID 327601, 9 pages, 2003. https://doi.org/10.1080/09629350310001619717
Cytokine expression in allergic inflammation: systematic review of in vivo challenge studies
Background: Allergic inflammatory responses are driven by cells of the immune system that rely on cytokines to regulate the activity of other immune and structural cells.Objective: To review published studies to (1) identify cytokines consistently increased after allergen challenge in atopic patients and (2) investigate temporal variation in cytokine expression.Methods: A PUBMED systematic search was used to extract data from studies involving analysis of cytokine expression in fluids or biopsies following in vivo allergen challenge in atopic patients.Results: Data were extracted from 82 studies. There were no consistent reports of cytokine protein increase in fluids of patients at 0-1 h after challenge. At 4-12 h, the chemokines eotaxin, macrophage inflammatory protein-1α, RANTES (regulated on activation normal T cell expressed and secreted) and interleukin (IL)-8 have all been consistently reported to be up-regulated. At 18-24 h after challenge, the lymphokines IL-4, IL-5 and IL-13, as well as the pro-inflammatory cytokines granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor, tumour necrosis factor-α and IL-6 are consistently increased when compared with the respective control value. There were no reports of up-regulation in interferon- protein and mRNA and in IL-2 mRNA.Conclusion: The expression of granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor is consistently increased in tissues at 4-12 h after challenge. The influence of this cytokine on antigen capture and presentation by dendritic cells should be further investigated. Additionally, allergen challenge studies are needed that investigate the expression of macrophage-derived chemokine and thymus-regulated and activation-regulated chemokine in tissues of atopic patients. Blocking the effects of these lymphocyte-specific chemokines might provide new therapeutic approaches for the control of allergic inflammation.
