Dia de las madres 2021 colombia5/12/2024 There is still a lot to be clarified, especially after the shocking arrest of the city police commissioner, together with the brothers. Last week, the alleged authors of the assassination of Rio de Janeiro city councilwoman Marielle Franco – two politician-mobster brothers – were arrested. It has been the way I get around the incessant and annoying media all week, separating articles of interest for just one night, passing on what I learned – or didn’t learn – because having an opinion is hard work. I sometimes decipher just enough French or Hindi to get another perspective. I’ve come across some nutritious reads, whether em português, other times en español, or in the English language that dominates world news. The investigation has not always been toxic, actually. ![]() Considering there is no longer even a consensus about the past, divination of the future is none the easier, but it is certainly, shall we say, more ‘palatable’ with some poison. ![]() So in winter it is a glass of wine spring and autumn, beer and vodka for the heat of a tropical summer to swallow the ails of this world, weeding out a garden of journalists pining for attention in an effort to grasp where we are going and where we’ve been. To make it easier, I casually curate until (not every) Thursday, when my mind and body are already tired of the week’s rigor of being a good boy. Personally, I would much prefer a life dedicated to reading fiction rather than non-fiction, yet I find it irresponsible not only to run from the information at hand in such a complicating world, but also to hide and not share a take on it. ![]() The indiscipline of kicking back and having a drink during the week made it easier to swallow the week’s collection of poisonous news and information for which there was no time when trying to live a life of discipline. It started as a secret protest, a spoon full of sugar to help the medicine go down.

Logitech quickcam windows 105/12/2024 First USB QuickCam also supports parallel ports. Improved sensor and optical system, optimised for indoor use Parallel model only. Serial model with built-in microphone and Parallel model. In October 2010, QuickCam was elected to Time Magazine's Top 100 Gadgets of all Time Cameras Today, Logitech QuickCam is one of the world's most recognized webcam brands. Many recent models implement the USB video device class standard and work under Mac OS without additional drivers. This could largely be the result of Apple building webcams into their laptop and desktop computers, negating the need for external third party devices. The company has gradually decreased support for the Macintosh platform, with only one current model officially supporting Mac or including Mac drivers. The QuickCam product line was acquired by Logitech in August 1998. The software that originally shipped with the camera included QuickMovie for recording motion pictures and QuickPICT for capturing still images. It produced 16 shades of gray at a resolution of 320×240 pixels, and could record video at about 15 frames per second it cost $100. ![]() The initial model was available only for the Apple Macintosh, connecting to it via the serial port. It is now considered one of the top gadgets of all time. Eventually, it evolved from an RS-422 connector to a parallel connector then eventually to a USB connection. Video conferencing via computers already existed at the time, and client-server based video conferencing software such as CU-SeeMe was gaining popularity. The original QuickCam was developed by Connectix in 1994 for nationwide commercial sale and was the first widely marketed webcam-like device, although its original advertising did not use the term "webcam" or refer to the World Wide Web, then in its infancy. QuickCam is a line of webcam video camera products by Logitech.

Synology ds418 minimserver5/11/2024 Some would say, that on paper Diskstation DS418 looks like a typical Raspberry Pi 4. What do you get in exchange for your hard-earned money? A hardware spec, which is not even remotely impressive when compared to a typical computer. It has been done before in this article – there is no point in re-invent the wheel – I’m just going to focus on how I think NAS could benefit you – the average tech enthusiast. I’m sure there is a reason for picking NAS-certified drives, however, for home use, I’m better off almost £100 richer.īefore you dive any deeper, I want to let you know, that I’m not going to subject this NAS drive to performance-specific benchmarks. I decided that for my scenario (1-2 users, mostly long-term data storage with minimal redundancy) NAS graded drives are not worth extra money. Some of you may question why I haven’t picked the NAS edition of the drives. HDD 3.5″: Western Digital WD60EZAZ 6TB BLUE.To quantify the box, I settled for a mixture of SSH & HDD (3.5″) drives giving me both performance volumes and large storage capacity without draining all my savings. It’s the expense you have to accept before even thinking about the storage! Storage is where it gets really expensive. Yes, spending £370-ish on an empty box is considered reasonable in NAS space. Just like Argon EON, Diskstation DS418 comes with 4-bay support and feature-rich software that takes this NAS beyond the typical use cases.ĭiskstation DS418 brings enough extra features to bring the box to the “prosumer” level without an outlandish price tag. Knowing that the Argon EON case for Raspberry Pi 4 was on the way, I thought, that comparing both together would make a compelling case for choosing a “DIY or buy” path to your data storage needs. I asked about this NAS in particular for a couple of reasons. Why Diskstation DS418? My first NAS – total DIY job! At what point does spending £300+ on a dedicated storage box brings a return on your investment? Synology loaned me Diskstation DS418 to find out if the box can satisfy my rather peculiar needs. ![]() Whatever your needs are, NAS can be a great device to retain access to your data, while keeping computers asleep. Some of us will look for redundancy, others for file sharing, media storage and streaming. And please use the KISS principles.There are many reasons to have a NAS (network-attached storage) at home. If you consider I'm too dense to use this, that's ok but please be polite in your responses. ![]() with bullet points) to say how to install and use the Trial version? Is there simple step by step guide ( e.g. I paraphrase here but installation text and simple guide uses such phrases as - " depends what version you have", "only works on the bought version not the trial." " Install something on another other device" "upgrade from earlier version" "upgrade Minimumwatch 2" and so on. So much text to read, I really don't whether it will even work with a trial version. I'm therefore trying to use the Minim server- here's the "But"! Frankly I just cannot follow the installation procedures. ![]() However neither server accesses all my music. I can do this via Emby server on the nas and by Synology's music server. I'm attempting to use a Synology 418 and Minimserver to access my music folder and stream to my Denon AVR and then my speakers. Please don't take this the wrong way as I'm totally out of my depth here - just a basic elderly person trying to understand then install and use the server.

Spike dudley concussion5/11/2024 ![]() Clinical assessment should be madeĭaily, with a minimum return to play period of six days. In addition, neuropsychological testing should be carried out every 48 hours after the injury until return to play, and show a gradual return to baseline. Where there is no doctor, players must be sent to A&E immediately, and never left alone or allowed to drive home. Always erring on the side of caution, players must be removed from the field of play and not be allowed to return, even if there is only a suspected Radically changed pitch-side medical assistance. The key features of the guide include a requirement for all players to undergo pre-season baseline cognitive training to detect any risk that may exist through previous injury. They followed a review by its medical committee, which was undertaken in 2013. ![]() New guidelines and rules were introduced by the FA for the 2014/15 season for the management of concussion and head injuries in football. Robust statements, critical of the decision to allow a player to continue playing after losing consciousness were also issued by the head injury charity, Headway, among others. Although Tottenham claimed that tests carried out after the match showed that he had been fit to continue playing, FIFA’s chief medical officer was insistent that Lloris should have been withdrawn. Lloris was lauded as a hero but controversy soon ensued over the decision to allow him to continue to play, demonstrating at least an increased awareness of the risks associated with concussion. TheĮverton striker with whom he had collided had to be replaced as a result of the injury to his knee, which he sustained when it made contact with the head of Lloris. Tottenham’s coach at the time, Andre Villas Boas, directed Lloris to return to his goal and to continue. He was attended by the club doctor and club physiotherapist on the pitch.Īs Lloris was being led to the touchline he resisted and said that he wanted to carry on. LlorisĪppeared to lose consciousness – although the club subsequently disputed this. Together with an ignorance of the significant risks associated with brain trauma, it has also created an inertia within certain sports, including football, which persisted for over 50 years following the Trautmann Cup Final.įor most of that period, a culture of passive acceptance of concussive injuries and their consequences existed amongst players, managers, coaches, medical staff, owners and governing bodies alike.Īs recently as November 2013, the Tottenham Hotspur goalkeeper, Hugo Lloris, was allowed to continue playing after sustaining a head injury following a collision with an opposing striker. This admiration has, though, contributed significantly to a failure to identify the dangers of head injuries in sufficient time. Trautmann was a German living and working in austere post-war Britain, adding to the mystique surrounding the story.īravery and selfless commitment to a cause are human qualities that we understandably admire. The fact that he had dislocated five vertebrae and risked further catastrophic, potentially fatal, injury by continuing to play was not identified until several days later. But the science is winning, says Craig Mooreīert Trautmann’s heroics for Manchester City during the 1956 FA Cup Final have acquired legendary, almost mythical, status in football folklore.ĭespite sustaining concussion and a broken neck during a collision with an opposing player, Trautmann continued to play as goalkeeper for the final 15 minutes of the game and helped his team to win the Cup. ![]() When it comes to concussion in sport, misguided notions of bravery have clashed with medical evidence.
