North Korea's Wednesday morning submarine-launched ballistic missile (SLBM) test was a success, state media said on Thursday, describing it has having been carried out without "adverse impact" on neighboring countries.
The launch, which was conducted under the supervision of Kim Jong Un at around 5:30AM SKT from North Korea's East Coast traveled some 500km South Korea's Joint Chief of Staff (JCS) said on Wednesday.
Kim Jong Un "appreciated the test-fire as the greatest success and victory… (describing it as) a great manifestation and demonstration of the tremendous power and inexhaustible muscle of the DPRK," the Korea Central News Agency (KCNA) said of the launch in a Thursday article.

In pictures published in national daily the Rodong Sinmun, Kim Jong Un was pictured celebrating with local service personnel, having monitored the launch from a camouflaged observation station, cigarette in hand.
Third party observers largely concurred that Wednesday's test had been a success, with analysts suggesting the high altitude trajectory had been intended to demonstrate range capabilities without overly disturbing neighboring countries.
An SLBM capability is advantageous for North Korea, giving Pyongyang a potential nuclear second-strike capability, or assured ability to respond to a nuclear attack on its mainland with a retaliatory strike from a submarine.
The KCNA said Kim praised his engineers for developing the SLBM capability in a "short span of time" and said the results of the test proved "the DPRK joined the front rank of the military powers fully equipped with nuclear attack capability."
Washington, the report continued, would now be unable to deny that North Korea could target its nuclear capabilities towards the U.S. mainland and "operational theatre in the Pacific, "
Despite claiming it had not disturbed neighboring countries, the SLBM launch drew fierce criticism on Wednesday from Tokyo, with the projectile reportedly breaching Japan's air defense identification zone (ADIZ).
Japanese Prime Minister Shizo Abe denounced the missile launch as an "unforgivable" threat to regional security, in remarks published in multiple media on Wednesday.
But unlike North Korea's 1998 Taepodong long-range missile test, Wednesday's launch did not, however, see the DPRK projectile pass over physical Japanese territory.
The test came just two days after South Korea and the U.S. kicked off joint Ulchi Freedom Guardian (UFG) military drills on Monday, which will last until September 2.
"To counter UFG, North Korea conducts its own summer training as well," Yang Uk, the senior research fellow from the Korea Defense and Security Forum (KODEF) told NK News on Wednesday.
"However, as the country can't afford to conduct a large-scale training they have to make use of their 'most proud' military asset they have," said Yang, adding that such launches are aimed at telling the U.S.-ROK forces that the North can "strike the back of their heads."
Tal Inbar, an Israeli missile expert, described the latest test as "a further step in the missile diplomacy of Kim Jong Un."
Pointing out the test involved a new missile type under active development, Inbar underscored that Pyongyang was still "comfortable enough" to test it over more reliable missile types, like the Rodong or Scud.
"By choosing the SLBM option, in my view, North Korea made another step in the path to operational use of its submarine based ballistic missile force," he said.
Land-based testing of the Pukkuksong-1 SLBM began as early as 2013, when the test stand at Sinpo was built, and the first confirmed submerged test launch was conducted in May 2015.
The Pukkuksong-1 SLBM is believed to be based on the visually-similar Soviet-designed R-27 Zyb (NATO reporting name SS-N-6) SLB.

FORT COLLINS, Colo. — A woman was killed when a motorcycle collided with an SUV on Saturday morning, the Fort Collins Police Department said.
Officers responded to South College Avenue and Mason Street, south of East Harmony Road, just after 10 a.m.
Police said a 2001 black Harley-Davidson was traveling southbound on College Avenue when a black 2013 Ford Escape stopped in the turn lane going northbound attempted to make a left turn onto Mason Street.
The motorcycle collided with the front right side of the SUV.
The driver of the SUV, 68-year-old Carol Davis of Fort Collins, suffered minor injuries.
The driver of the motorcycle, 42-year-old Jesse Davis of Fort Collins, was taken to Medical Center of the Rockies with serious injuries.
A 37-year-old woman passenger on the motorcycle was also taken to Medical Center of the Rockies where she was later pronounced dead.
The woman's identity was not released, pending an autopsy and notification of next of kin by the Larimer County Coroner's Office.
The intersection of South College Avenue and Mason Street was closed for about five hours during the investigation of the crash.
Police do not believe alcohol or drugs were involved. The investigation is ongoing and charges are pending.
Anyone who has information about the collision and has not already given a statement is asked to call police at 970-221-6555.

Ricardo Viana Vargas, PMI-RMP, PMI-SP, PMP, a past
PMI chair, is the director of the Sustainable Project
Management Group at the United Nations Office for
Project Services in Copenhagen, Denmark.
Leadership meant taking the initiative to investigate our audiences' information needs, which
helped our communication efforts become much
more effective. We managed to create a strategy
that our colleagues implemented across the organization.
Once the audience is identified, project managers should understand the project well enough to
know which pieces of information are (or are not!)
useful to stakeholders. Communication is about
being conscientious. Remember to keep your message concise, specific and pertinent—good leaders
provide their teams with information that matters.
Those involved on the project need to know what's
required, when it's expected, how it should be
undertaken and with what other activities it should
be integrated.
Project leadership doesn't mean always initiating the conversation—far from it. I tell my team
that "my door is always open," because managers
should facilitate communication by fostering openness. With the right information, team members
can be empowered to perform their work, collaborate more strongly, and better understand tasks
and objectives.
The suite of tools and techniques that a proj-ect manager makes available must be outlined ina communications strategy—this is where it allbegins. The clear and concise plan should addressproject responsibilities and explain which types ofcommunication will take place over the course ofthe project. It should be shared with team mem-bers, and they should be encouraged to offer feed-back and initiate future dialogues.
Because project work is ever-changing, project
leaders must make frequent project plan adjustments—and consistently communicate the reasons
driving such changes. Without good communication, projects can fall into chaos. Without understanding the motivation behind a change, team
members might be resistant and less effective.
Creating an atmosphere of openness and clarity
can help minimize miscommunications and project setbacks.
Communication is the foundation of strong
project leadership. Skilled leaders know that more
important than stellar oratory skills, great communication requires crafting a solid communication
plan, recognizing audience needs and utilizing a
wide range of tools and techniques. PM

Is Your Home Ready For The Open House?
Open house, or the day when your home can be visited and checked by potential buyers, might be the most crucial day that a home seller must carefully prepare for. The first impression that your home would give to buyers can make or break your selling plans. If you want to make sure that your Fort Worth home for sale is truly ready for an open house, try answering the questions below.
1. Have you removed unnecessary personal touches in your home?
Most of the time, it's hard for sellers to depersonalize their homes. Attachments to things that you value around the house may hinder you from determining what should be removed and what should stay. Always try to look at things in the buyer's perspective. If you were the buyer, would it be easy for you to imagine living in a home filled with religious items you don't believe in, or family pictures and memorabilia that are not yours? Letting go of these items would make enough room for you to examine what improvements can be done to make your home more attractive.
2. Does your home look clean?
Surely, you know the importance of cleaning before showing your home to potential buyers. Before the big day, tour your home and check places where dust and dirt might accumulate and do a quick touch up. Make sure curtains and bedspreads are nicely arranged and places that are often touched, like handrails are clean.
3. Does your home smell clean?
Be sure to tuck away objects that might make unpleasant smell like dog food, shoes or litter boxes. Let the bad smell out by opening the windows and doors. Invite pleasant smell by using fresh flowers. Most potential buyers like the smell of good food baking or coffee brewing.
4. Can buyers see the best assets of your home?
This involves trying to minimize or eliminate distraction so potential buyers can rest their eyes on the selling points of your home rather than on clutter or on an unimportant but eye catching furniture. Try to organize things by using just a few bins or storage that won't destroy the appeal of you home. The idea is to avoid leaving too many loose items on open places.
5. Is the furniture arrangement conducive to comfortable movement?
You want the visitors of your open house to move around freely and comfortably. If anything is blocking the way, even if it has been there for centuries, don't think twice and move it. This doesn't mean you have to remove everything, because having a bare space also doesn't leave a good impression. The goal is to have just enough furniture placed in strategic locations both for style and mobility.
6. Are the temperature, lighting and sound just right?
We don't want a house that's too cold or too hot. We also don't want loud and distracting noises. But we do appreciate good lighting. Buyers would also get a good impression of your home if these things are in check. Make sure to let natural light and relaxing natural sound (trees swaying, birds chirping) in as much as possible. Relaxing music can also do the trick.
7. Can visitors have the information they need?
Placing brochures or information pamphlets near the entrance or exit is a good tactic. Moreover, you want visitors to take only the information they need, nothing more and nothing less. This means you also have to secure personal information and valuable items beforehand.
Hopefully, these questions can help you be more ready on your open house. Don't miss an item and your Fort Worth Texas home is sure to make a good impression.

Studies come out every month about nutrition. But, what do you really know about nutritional facts?
Some tell you everything you need to know. Others, not so much.
The following are ten nutritional facts approved by everyone.
Nutritional Facts About Drinking Coffee and Tea
Most morning people love coffee and tea. The drinks are healthy. There are nutritional facts to prove it.
Coffee and tea both contain caffeine; one of the more popular stimulants.
Caffeine helps boost mood, increase focus and physical performance, as claimed by studies published by the Psychopharmacology and Pubmed.
Research posted on the Journal of Epidemiology and Community Health shows that side effects may occur if you drink more coffee or tea, that's why some nutritional facts state users should drink no more than four cups of coffee or tea a day.
Bottom Line: Studies show coffee and tea increase physical and mental performance. They may also reduce the risk of certain health problems.
Added Sugar Leads to Fat
Added sugar has increasingly become a part of Western diets. This rise in sugar may affect our health.
Studies published by The BMJ, British Journal of Nutrition, and Hippokratia show sugar increases obesity.
According to Advances in Nutrition, sugar comes in the form of high fructose corn syrup, which contains 45% glucose and 55% fructose.
Studies published by the World Journal of Hepatology, Current Opinion in Gastroenterology, and Current Opinion in Clinical Nutrition & Metabolic Care points out that added sugar leads to a layer of fat forming around the liver, causing weight gain.
This condition leads to obesity, as mentioned in the Journal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition.
Bottom Line: Added sugar and high fructose corn syrup, can cause fatty liver and weight gain.
Increase Protein – Support Weight-Loss
Nutritional facts posted by Obesity, International Journal of Food Sciences and Nutrition, and Pubmed support adding protein to your diet in order to help you feel full and assist with weight loss.
Studies published by Cell Metabolism and Metabolism show that adding protein triggers the fullness hormone.
Bottom Line: Including protein rich foods in your diet will help regulate hunger, promote weight loss, and build and repair tissues
Replace Refined Grains With Whole Grains
Replace refined grains with whole grains can help reduce the risk of obesity, as claimed by studies published by ARYA Atherosclerosis, Asia Pacific Journal of Clinical Nutrition, and JNY State Nurses Association.
There's a connection between the risk for obesity and poor diet containing refined grains versus whole grains according to a study posted by the JNY State Nurses Association.
Bottom Line: Whole grains reduce the risk of obesity. Refined grains have the opposite effect.
Not all Cholesterol is the Same
Contrary to what some information says, not all cholesterol is bad for you.
According to the BMJ and Herz HDL, or your "good" cholesterol, helps remove harmful bad cholesterol (LDL) from where it doesn't belong.
Bottom Line: Increase HDL cholesterol and lower LDL cholesterol.
Is Counting Calories Necessary?
There's a connection between counting calories and weight loss, according to the studies published by the Journal of Clinical Investigation with the subjects "Total and resting energy expenditure in obese women reduced to ideal body weight" and "Composition of weight lost during short-term weight reduction".
You can eat less and count calories. However, this isn't a guarantee that you'll lose weight as mentioned by the BMJ.
Instead of counting calories, consider switching to lower calorie healthy snacks.
Bottom Line: Not everyone needs to count calories to lose weight. Think about switching foods choices.
Low Carb Diet for Weight Loss
Research published by the Journal of Clinical Investigation, Current Opinion in Neurology, and Jasper's Basic Mechanisms of the Epilepsies show low-carb diet (ketogenic diet) helps with weight loss.
Reducing or even monitoring your carb intake, while increasing healthy fats and lean protein could benefit overall health and wellness.
Bottom Line: Low-carb diets help with weight loss.
Healthy Oils
Many people overlook the benefits of heathy fats and oils, which contain good cholesterol and fat.
Including things like extra virgin olive oil, which contains oleic acid, can help you feel full and increase good cholesterol levels.
Extra virgin olive oil contains oleic acid, which helps you feel full and increases good cholesterol levels, as stated by a study published by Advances in Nutrition.
According to a review posted by Food & Function, olive oil raises good cholesterol and lowers bad cholesterol.
Bottom Line: Oleic acid and polyphenols help lower bad cholesterol.
Healthy Snacking – Eating Healthy Nuts
Nuts are a healthy snack and there's science supporting the health benefits, according to a research published by Nutrients.
A study published by Current Pharmaceutical Design revealed that certain nuts may reduce inflammation and reduce cholesterol levels.
Nuts are higher in calories, but they help you feel full. They also help curb hunger.
Bottom Line: Nuts are a great replacement for unhealthy snacks. There are health benefits to overall wellness.
Fruits and Vegetables
The health benefits of fruits and vegetables in our diet are a no-brainer. Including both fruits and vegetables in our day provide essential nutrients.

Ask questions from your heart and you will be answered from the heart.
- Omaha proverb
If your mind wants to know something, it will go after information as a lawyer does and seek answers to the 5 W's:
the who. what, where, when and why of an occurrence or event. You can almost feel the courtroom scene coming into view as these sharply clipped queries flood the metaphorical witness stand.
It's as if the mind (disguised as a lawyer) has a theory regarding what has occurred and is out to find the corroborating evidence to make its case. Whenever we, as the witness, sense the "lawyer" approaching us, it is no wonder we so easily withdraw or become defensive.
But no deep value comes from the crisp, pointed tactic of interrogation. Rather, the "defendant" moves away from the possibility of a resolution, feeling threatened by the cold logic of stand alone facts being revealed.
There is always so much more to the story than the lawyer's 5 W's. There is always the possibility of unresolved experiences, unhealed pain, misunderstandings and troubling emotions lining the landscape of the event which help explain what has occurred and which need to be considered in understanding how the event has unfolded and how it has impacted someone's life.
It is not an inquiry from the mind which brings forth this important, sensitive, enlightening information. It is a gentle, compassionate invitation from the heart to try to hear the feelings that have been evoked in someone.
It is the attentive and caring gaze that will help someone feel understood, affirmed and supported and that will help bring forth this information to the Light. The soft, sweet music of a genuine, loving inquiry will elicit the possibility of an authentic and brave response.
Being understood and cared for can empower us to bravely see what is showing itself in our emotions for our attention and healing.
A loving sense of compassion for someone's pain, a gentle, caring question about what this feels like and holding space for the answer to reveal itself are what invite the power to ultimately receive these so important messages from the heart.

Andrew Wyeth
Nowadays, it is considered taboo in figurative painting to betray any sense of feeling if you want to be taken seriously. Objective analysis of form and color is heralded as a higher goal for a painter, and yet I am not sure I agree. The art can then very easily become just as boring as photorealism. There is a lot of excellent painting happening today, but when I feel that it is being conducted in a mechanical method or pixelized way, rather than perhaps being something pounced upon and pushed through an emotional instinct, it does not seem to go beyond craft and decoration for me. I think this becomes even more interesting to examine the closer you edge to the extremes of more abstract versus highly rendered paintings. When I look at Andrew Wyeth's paintings, the last thing that comes to mind is painstaking, empty illustration. There is a love driving his work, both found and lost. I always feel privileged to look at his paintings, swept away by the chance to stand in his shoes and look deeply at his recordings of the people, places and weather around him. It is a rare gift that someone looked so stubbornly, poignantly and faithfully – not afraid to expose himself so, despite the trends of the commercial art world.
Andrew Wyeth (July 12, 1917 – January 16, 2009) was primarily classified as a realist painter and is one of the artists I have consistently looked at in astonishment during the past 20 years. In a "Life Magazine" article in 1965, Wyeth said that although he was thought of as a realist, he thought of himself as an abstractionist:
My people, my objects breathe in a different way: there's another core — an excitement that's definitely abstract. My God, when you really begin to peer into something, a simple object, and realize the profound meaning of that thing — if you have an emotion about it, there's no end.
Wyeth's favorite subjects were the land and people around him, both in his hometown of Chadds Ford, Pennsylvania, and at his summer home in Cushing, Maine. With his father's guidance, painter and illustrator N.C. Wyeth, he mastered figure study and watercolor, and later learned egg tempera from his brother-in-law Peter Hurd. He studied art history on his own, admiring many masters of Renaissance and American painting, especially Winslow Homer.
N.C. fostered an inner self-confidence to follow one's own talents without thought of how the work is received. In a letter to Andrew in 1944, N.C. wrote:
The great men [Thoreau, Goethe, Emerson, Tolstoy] forever radiate a sharp sense of that profound requirement of an artist, to fully understand that consequences of what he creates are unimportant. Let the motive for action be in the action itself and not in the event. I know from my own experience that when I create with any degree of strength and beauty I have no thought of consequences. Anyone who creates for effect — to score a hit — does not know what he is missing!
In October 1945, Wyeth's father and three-year-old nephew were killed when their car stalled on railroad tracks near their home and was struck by a train. The strong emotions arising from this tragedy engulfed Wyeth personally and artistically, finding an outlet in what would become his enduring style. For further biographical reading on Wyeth in Wikipedia, click here. There is a great video of "Andrew Wyeth Draws a Portrait" on the Painting Perceptions forum. Sharing below images I have collected over time for others to enjoy.

thank you for sharing such complete study ; I love Wyeth, and I discover a lot of pictures I didn't know until now. it's just wonderful and inspiring !
August 16, 2011
Great article Rebecca, I love that quote from him "…if you have an emotion about it, there's no end", I'm going to put that up on my studio wall. You bring up many important points.
As much as I like formal structure and abstract thinking in painting I think the driving force behind it needs to be an emotional connection. I don't completely "get" the aesthetic that champions "detachment" above all. There is a big difference between the sentimental and picturesque on one hand and emotional connection and beauty. Too many seem to want to throw the baby out with the bathwater…
I have the excellent book, Unknown Terrain – the Landscapes of Andrew Wyeth. It clearly shows his abstract thinking in many of the plates. I'm sending you some of my favorites by email and I may post these images (not currently in your batch of images from him)and write on him as well soon – and link here to your article.

OBesides adding warmth and character to the house, hanging plant may also enhance the air quality and have been shown to decrease tension and boost productivity. Air plants are my favourite thing, and I am unable to recommend them enough for busy men and women. hanging plant are a breeze to take care of and are also helpful for purifying the air.
There are several different kinds of hanging cactus, and they're pretty simple to care for because hanging succulent plants do not demand watering as often as other hanging plants. Hanging plants are beautiful, and because of they are simple to raise and maintain, they've become trendy in the past couple of years. Small indoor plants are a few of the most flexible greenery it's possible to find.

From the MiContact Center Tip Desk
By Patrick McDowell – MiCC Customer Advocate
I've been telling you about the powerful features of the IVR Workflows and Subroutines for a few months now and you may have been experimenting with different workflows and subroutines. One of the cool things about the IVR designer is the version history – every time you edit and save an IVR workflow or subroutine, the previous version of that file remains on your drive. This is really handy for those times when you need to revert back to how things were before.
This also comes with a bit of a drawback – over time, you end up using more disk space than necessary – you end up storing data that will never ever be used again. For you power users out there, a simple Powershell script can clean up the workflow directory and keep only the most recent (active) copy of the workflow/subroutines.
You will have to adjust it slightly if your IVR workflow path is not default (the $root value highlighted in red below) and when this script runs, it will remove all but the last modified XAML files (workflow and subroutine file-type), leaving you with only the active files. If there are other file-types in your IVR worklfow folders (such as a text doc commenting a workflow, etc) they will not be touched. If you want to preserve your workflow history but also want to clean up your drive, store your most recent BACKUP file (by default found in 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Mitel\MiContact Center\Backups) in a safe location before you do the cleanup.
Paste the following into a new notepad document and save it asXamlSweeper.ps1 in the <INSTALLDIR>\IVR\Workflows folder. To run it, right-click on it and choose Run In Powershell.
$root = 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Mitel\MiContact Center\Ivr\Workflow\Compiled'

The Dow Jones U.S. Trucking Index has outperformed all year, but on a day when the Dow industrials soared over 200 points, up 1.3%, the trucking index was down about 2%. Something has changed here, and it looks to be time for investors to sell these stocks.
Let's start with a trucker with a chart that mirrors that of the sector as a whole, CH Robinson Worldwide (NASDAQ: CHRW).

Finding time to write while working full time, having an active child, a second job doing consulting work, time for my hubby, and all the other interests I have is a juggling act to say the least.
I have found that unfortunately some of the day to day interests I have need to be kicked to the wayside as I just can't throw one more ball up into the air. Darn you Pinterest.
I spent over two years with a friend running a cooking blog called Try it Tuesday. The blog focused on trying new receipes once a week. The site is still up mainly because I need somewhere to go to find the recipes I tried and liked. Both my friend (who is now living in Germany) and I have not posted in quite awhile. It is hard because I really enjoyed doing it and writing the blog posts. But it was just one more thing I couldn't juggle any more.
Another thing I've stopped doing is creating scrapbooks. I have some pretty incredible ones I did of our family from the time Liz was born until she was six. I just don't have the time to sit down and do it anymore. I'm packing up the majority of my supplies and sending them to a family member who likes to do it and and has more time to spend at it.
The one interest I won't give up is reading. Not only do I love to read, but it really is a good way to study the craft of being a writer. I see styles in books I like and styles I don't like. I learn formating techniques, word choice, and study how certain authors I enjoy reading have constructed their story. Or I just get lost in the words, enjoying the journey the author is taking me on.
The other thing I won't give up is writing, so if you catch me on my 30 minute lunch break franctically scribbling in a my notebook, it's because the voices are talking to me again and my writers block has lifted.
Do what you love, love what you do. Don't let two many balls get thrown up into the air.

A decade ago, you could shift half a stone in a couple of weeks if you put your mind to it. But now, no matter what you try, that fat tyre round the middle won't budge. And it's getting worse. It's like your fat cells take on superpowers while you sleep. Am I right?
In The Secret to Weight Loss in your 40s and Beyond I'll share what the diet industry doesn't want you to know… that losing weight, regaining your energy, and getting your glow back really IS possible without breaking the bank or resorting to weird food, juice fasts and a lifetime of misery. Even when you're in that tricky peri-menopause zone.
The truth is, you're going to need to do things differently. And I'm going to let you know what that looks like...
Hi, I'm Ailsa Hichens, a nutritionist + health coach who specialises in helping women lose weight (especially that annoying can't-seem-to-shift-it-no-matter-what-I-try kind of weight), make peace with their bodies and finally feel at home in the skin they're in.
I've spent years in clinic working with clients just like you who have discovered that losing weight is NOT just about eating less until you can stand it no longer. I help people fix their relationship with food and eat the 'right' things for them – and this is absolutely critical after 40 because the rules suddenly get very different.
I'm also a working mum of 3, and I know how hard it is to juggle healthy eating with real life.
After years wrestling with my own weight, I now I help women who are struggling with an ever-expanding waistline, and a lack of confidence find their own magic formula to break through what is holding them back, lose weight for good WITHOUT ever having to diet again. In the process, they find they become the best version of themselves. Benefit of the benefit, ladies. Take the first step to food freedom by downloading my free guide.
Over 40 and struggling to lose weight? The rules are different now. Fill in your details to grab your free copy of the 15-page new rules rulebook + discover what really works

Happy Halloween!
I love harvest time and halloween, but it is springtime in BA, so the holiday didn't have the same appeal.
I thought I would be exempt from spooky tricks, but THIS guy showed up in my shower!
I tried to kill him by drowning him, but he survived. Then I tried AGAIN to drown him, but he survived again! So then he just had to be smashed.
Sorry, but that is what you get for being a huge, hairy baby tarantula.

The HY-TTC 500 product family is a high-end electronic control solution equipped for upcoming needs. The controller with its powerful TMS570 dual-core lockstep CPU is designed for use in demanding safety-relevant automotive applications. The five product variants HY-TTC 590, HY-TTC 580, HY-TTC 540, HY-TTC 510 and HY-TTC 508 fulfill safety requirements up to SIL 2 (IEC 61508), PL d (ISO 13849) and AgPL d (ISO 25119)*. They are part of a complete and compatible product family and can be programmed either in C, CODESYS® Safety SIL 2 or in SAFERTOS® environment.
* available only for HY-TTC 508 and 590.
The extensive I/O set with various configuration options makes the HY-TTC 500 controllers suitable for a wide range of high-end applications: For example, a group of 8 I/O pins can be individually configured for use as PVG output, voltage output, digital output or analog input. Commissioning time can be improved by using Ethernet for download and debugging purposes. Commissioning time can be improved by using Ethernet for download and debugging purposes.
A high percentage of the run-time tests that are needed to achieve the diagnostic coverage required for SIL 2 / PL d is performed in hardware by the dual-core lockstep CPU and its safety companion. This keeps much more processing power available for the application in comparison with solutions that implement the safety measures in software. The available memory protection mechanisms allow to execute safety and non-safety software on the same ECU without interference. The time-consuming validation of non-safety software is therefore no longer necessary. Safe data communication is achieved by the standardized CANopen® Safety protocol of the control units. In case of a safety-relevant failure, outputs can be shut off in 3 groups allowing limp-home functionality. The safety certified CODESYS® Safety SIL 2 with its validated compiler and code generator speeds up application development significantly.
As an extension of the C-programming environment, the SAFERTOS® integration improves the traditional way of designing and writing an ECU application, allowing the split of the "main loop" user application into multiple working tasks that run until they are interrupted by a higher-priority task, blocked (waiting for an external event) or until a time limit expires. The real-time OS specific functionality has been extended with control application specific features, like run-time separation into safety-critical and other tasks, a monitoring concept for ensuring timely execution of all tasks and application task ownership of any HY-TTC 500 I/O port used. The efficient inter-task communication and synchronization mechanism using queue implementation permits data to be safely transferred between tasks.

Have you ever tried to forgive somebody & three hours later you were still pissed or sad again?
So.. once, when I was in middle school I did something my momma told me not to do & one of her adult friends called me out on it. Of course, I was in trouble with my mama, but she also told me to apologize to the guy who "snitched" on me. I'm sure you can imagine it didn't go over well with her when I said loudly, "But I'm not sorry…"
I don't remember what she said in response, but I knew in my mind that it just didn't make sense to apologize for something I didn't really feel sorry for. Yes, I understand the multitudinous principles behind the matter, but I didn't think I was in the wrong. And in part, I wasn't.
On this new path in my life journey I've entered, I've come face to face with so many chained up, super glued shut doors covered with dusty cob webs in the repressed segments of my mind we will call "The Memphis Triangle". I'll never knock the power of prayer, but in terms of me trying to do my part in healing emotionally from the wounds inflicted on me by the creepy crawly thingies that jump out of those doors & attack me, I've been paralyzed to a standstill. It wasn't until I was introduced to a concept by Iyanla Vanzant, life coach, that I was finally able to see a lot of painful memories either disappear or become neutral ground.
This is where you may want to grab some paper…
How to ACTUALLY Forgive Somebody
ACCEPT. Out loud (at best) or inwardly say "I accept…" the bad situation that you're struggling to move passed from. And in situations where you're having doubts in a certain area of your life, you can also accept the good that's present.
LET GO. After you've accepted whatever the heck it is you needed to accept, then you need to let go of whatever it is that you're holding onto- the feeling or the memory- that is causing you grief or consuming your time. And I encourage you to either out loud (again, at best) or in your mind say, "I let go of… negative emotions, past events, misperceptions of those events.."
FORGIVE. (PAUSE) After you've passed level 1 & level 2, hopefully you'll reach a place where you feel safe & content with the notion of letting it go to the fullest by forgiving. Forgive yourself, whoever all hurt you, or maybe even them for hurting you & you for stunting your life's growth by holding on to it for so long. You may realize that you're just not feeling it. And that's fine! Do it when you're ready, but please know that you do have to do this. If not for them, for you.
TAKE NOTE. I'm not going to quote the tired saying that you can forgive but you can't forget. Oh wait.. my bad (lol). But it's true. Even though you've completed the steps, it doesn't exempt your mind or the devil from recycling those tired thoughts & memories back into your mind. The only thing you need to worry about when that happens is to simply remind yourself that you've 1. Accepted it & 2. Let it go (Optional- 3. Forgave whoever). From here, just shift your focus from the creepy thingies to the knowledge that you're on a new level now!

I'm pretty sure broccoli slaw fits the bill for any menu, anytime of year, but it's especially good over the summer months when picnics and outdoor excursions are in full swing. When it comes to slaws, I tend to be partial to less creamy varieties. The nutritional upside of vinegar-based dressing outweighs the dietary disaster in processed mayo-based dressing hands down.
Every single ingredient in this slaw has an incredible benefit, whether it's detoxifying or fortifying. Here are a few of my favorites:
Broccoli: A cruciferous vegetable, broccoli does an amazing job pulling toxins out of our body. It's a good source of vitamin K, C, B6 as well as folate. Little do many of us realize, but folate is a superpower in the detox department. It's also a good source of fiber! Because this recipe calls for the broccoli to be marinaded for at least two hours, the digestibility is much greater. If you have a problem with eating raw broccoli, it's less likely to happen when it's prepared this way.
Onion: Don't skip this all-important ingredient. Onions contain high levels of polyphenols, which not only aid in preventing disease, but helping you look and feel more youthful, too. If you've got achy joints, or suffer from chronic infections of any kind, onions can help as they do an amazing job keeping inflammation at bay.
Caraway Seeds: This seed is simply amazing. Caraway seeds help to balance out our detoxification. If you've ever gone through a detox and felt somewhat sick (or even sicker than when you began), caraways sends have the ability to lessen the impact. What's more, caraway seeds do a great job reducing bloating and gas. A little bit of caraway goes a long way.
Cleansing Broccoli Slaw
Serves 6
6 cups broccoli, shredded, including stalks
2 cups carrots, peeled and shredded
1 cup red onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, crushed and minced
2 teaspoons caraways seeds
3/4 cup apple cider vinegar
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
3 teaspoons maple syrup
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
pinch of black pepper
1. Using a food processor, shred the broccoli, including the stalks. If you don't have a food processor, you can use a sharp knife instead. Place shredded broccoli in a large mixing bowl.
2. Using a hand shredder, shred carrots. I opted to use a hand shredder instead of a food processor because my food processor tends to make smaller shreds. I wanted mine to look a little bigger, and have more texture. If this doesn't matter to you, go a head and add the carrots to the food processor along with the broccoli. Add the carrots to the bowl of broccoli.
3. Dice one cup of red onion and add to vegetable mixture.
4. Crush and mince fresh garlic. Add to vegetable mixture.
5. Add caraway to vegetable mixture and set aside.
1. In a small bowl, combine apple cider vinegar, olive oil, maple syrup, sea salt and black pepper. Whisk thoroughly.
2. Pour dressing over vegetable mixture and toss until all vegetable are covered.
3. Cover slaw and refrigerate for at least two hours.
4. Serve and enjoy!
