  1. When most people stand in front of a mirror, there’s indeed some aspect of their bodies they don’t like. However, what you don’t see in the mirror is how healthy you are. Being healthy isn’t all about losing weight, but also changing some parts of your lifestyle. Living an unhealthy lifestyle may not only make you overweight, but may put you at risk of other diseases as you grow older. Being healthy isn’t easy, but the results will last you a lifetime. You’ll have good health, skin, hair, and nails. Changing your lifestyle doesn’t mean counting calories, exercising every minute, or avoiding all your favorite foods. It means making little adjustments and building healthy habits while still enjoying the things you love, but with moderation. Here are a few tips to inspire you to start living healthy today, which will make you healthier, but still make your life enjoyable. Start losing excess weight. Thin may not necessarily be healthier, but losing weight should be your starting point to improving your health, and something that most guys can benefit from. Being overweight can increase the risk of many health problems like gynecomastia, diabetes, certain cancers, liver disease, heart disease, and even sleeping problems. There are hundreds of diets and exercises to choose from that help with losing weight. Starting by ditching the processed foods and fatty foods is a good start, and if you haven’t been exercising, start small. Swimming, water aerobics, or deep-water aerobics is recommended and is joint-friendly for an overweight guy. Then, slowly graduate to a walking program and increase the time walked, without worrying about how much distance you’ve covered until you can walk for half an hour or more. Afterward, slowly incorporate resistance training into your routine, and you’ll notice the pounds starting to shed off. Exercise will help you build muscle and increase your metabolism, while also losing weight without starving yourself. Start small, too, as you’re changing your eating habits. You can start by eating smaller portions while ditching the pizzas and fries. Also, ensure that you add some fruits and vegetables to your diet, which will also help you eat less and is healthier. If you like to watch TV and snack on chips or popcorns, change that to snacking on fruits like strawberries, apples, or watermelon. They are healthier, and they will make you feel fuller fast. Get regular checkups. You may feel great, but as you grow older, the risk of age-related disease increases with hormonal imbalance. Prostate cancer and gynecomastia are particularly common in men over 50. Get an appointment with your doctor and get tested. Long ago, people would only go to see a doctor when they get sick. Today, preventative health is becoming common, and is an excellent way to educate and empower people about their overall health. Getting checkups will decrease the risk of getting some diseases, while getting advice from your doctor about maintaining a healthy diet, physical activity, and weight. Regular medical checkups will help you find any irregular issues in your body before they become a problem. Early detection will help you get the best treatment quickly and avoid any complications. Don’t forget to check your teeth also as some gum disease has been linked to causing stroke, heart attack, and other serious cardiovascular diseases. Moderate drinking alcohol and quit smoking. Alcohol is among the greatest pleasures in life, and we’re not suggesting you should give it up completely. However, you should regulate the amount you’re taking and reduce it a bit. In time, you can stop drinking entirely and leave it to that glass of champagne on special occasions. Drinking in moderation is great for your health because alcoholic drinks have many calories, and we all know those beers and wings won’t do any good for your gut. On the other hand, cigarettes contain toxic chemicals that penetrate your bloodstream and create many issues in your system, not just lung cancer. Quitting smoking isn’t an easy journey, but you can start reducing your intake and using nicotine patches to suppress your need for tobacco. It will be a tough thing to do, but your health is worth it. Get enough sleep daily. Getting enough sleep every day is essential for your overall health; around six to eight hours of sleep per day is enough. When you’re asleep, that’s when your body repairs, recovers, and balances your hormones. Getting enough sleep every night will help curb your appetite, and prevent you from overindulging or overeating the wrong foods. Depriving yourself of enough sleep will also increase your risk of chronic diseases, including high blood pressure, diabetes, and even obesity. Create a good quiet environment for sleeping without disturbance. Remove TVs, gaming, and any entertainment gadgets from the bedroom, and this will ensure you’re getting the hours you need for enough sleep. Drink more water. Water is essential for your skin and health, and it’s useful in flushing out nasty toxins from your system. It would be best to drink at least 2 liters of water per day from morning to evening. You’ll probably visit the bathroom a couple of times when you start drinking more water, but with time, when your body gets used to it, the visits to the restrooms will reduce. Conclusion If you want to improve your health and lose some weight, then incorporate these tips one at a time until you’ve included all of them into your daily routine. Taking your time to follow these tips will help you reduce weight, have a healthy body, look good, and feel good, too. It also boosts your confidence and self-esteem.

  2. Cities must move to the frontline of efforts to fight gender inequality that has grown worse in the coronavirus pandemic, said six mayors from three continents as they joined forces in a new network to advance women’s rights. Around the world, women’s jobs, unpaid labour, health and safety have been upended by the impacts of Covid-19 and need critical attention, said the leaders of City Hub and Network for Gender Equity (CHANGE). The network aims to promote and share innovative projects focused on combating gender inequality with city mayors around the world . “Local governments can and should lead,” said Los Angeles mayor Eric Garcetti, the network’s first chair, who joined the mayors of Barcelona, Freetown, Mexico City, London and Tokyo in an online webinar with the media. Data from the World Economic Forum shows that at the current pace, the gender pay gap will not close for 257 years, he said. “We must act with urgency,” Garcetti said. “We can’t allow this pandemic to set us back further.” Women’s jobs have been 1.8 times more vulnerable to being lost in the pandemic than men’s, said a study by consultants McKinsey & Co., while government data showed of the 1.1 million US workers who dropped out of the workforce in September, 80% were women. In Los Angeles, every city department must have a gender action plan and show progress on tackling gender inequality, such as appointing women to boards and top positions, closing the gender pay gap and ensuring more girls use public spaces like sports fields, Garcetti said. Ada Colau, the first female mayor of Barcelona who called her administration a “feminist government,” singled out unpaid care work of children and ageing relatives. “We must fight against the inequality and injustice that women still suffer and end the invisibility of care work - a burden which is mostly borne by women,” Colau said.Styles London mayor Sadiq Khan, who called himself as a “proud feminist,” said a report found in England, mothers were 47% more likely than fathers to have lost or left their jobs in the pandemic. With women accounting for eight out of 10 people in low-paid jobs, London’s city government has invested £3m pounds to “re-skill” and “up-skill” women for better-paying jobs, he said. “I want gender equity hardwired into everything we do, not simply child care, though important it is, but from housing to a hiring policy to recruitment retention from policing to the environment,” Khan said. Mexico City mayor Claudia Sheinbaum said a key priority is combatting domestic violence that has worsened during lockdown. The city government has launched a network of 100 female lawyers who help women file reports of domestic abuse and provide free legal advice, she said. Two-thirds of the city’s 50,000 small businesses loans provided since the pandemic started have gone to help women become economically independent, Sheinbaum said. In Sierra Leone’s capital, Yvonne Aki-Sawyerr, the first female mayor of Freetown, said she was focused on stemming the world’s highest maternal mortality rates and supporting working mothers with child care. Last month, Freetown’s government launched a digital mobile phone literacy program aimed at women and opened the city’s first free day care for young children of market traders, most of whom are women, she said. Premier League clubs can welcome back spectators in highly limited numbers next month for the first time since March, following an announcement by the British government. Up to 4,000 people can return to outdoor sports stadiums in parts of England classified as at low risk from coronavirus from 2 December, permitting the resumption of attendance at football, rugby and racecourses among other sports. The crowd ceiling will be set at 4,000 or half the stadium capacity, whichever is lower, in the lowest-risk tier one parts of the country once a stricter lockdown due to the pandemic ends. In tier two areas, the limit will be 2,000 outdoors, or half the capacity, it said. In the highest tier three regions where Covid-19 remains acute, no spectators will be allowed. A few pilot events have been held with spectators, such as a cricket match at The Oval, while Brighton hosted Chelsea before this season’s Premier League got underway. However, England’s football and rugby leagues, and horse racing venues, have not allowed spectators since the first lockdown began in March. Rugby and racing were among the sports to receive financial aid from the government last week. Sports facing financial losses as a result of the absence of fans from stadiums can access a £300m Winter Survival Package of loans and grants. The government said it would spell out which regions of England will sit in which tier on Thursday, based on the latest weekly Covid data. Prior to the current lockdown, most of the country including London was in tier two. But three of the biggest Premier League clubs - Liverpool, Manchester United and Manchester City - are located in what were previously the highest tier three areas, so it remains to be seen whether they will be allowed to admit fans after 2 December. The government said that where spectators are allowed, only home fans will be permitted, to prevent unnecessary travel on public transport by opposing fans.
  3. Happy birthday my friends u are also my brother ❤️ @-Apex
  4. Video calling giant Zoom has announced it will temporarily lift its 40-minute call limit in a bid to support users unable to be with their families this Thanksgiving. While paying users of the video conferencing service are not subject to any call duration restrictions, users of the free Zoom service are usually restricted to 40-minute sessions, which could make for stilted Thanksgiving celebrations. As announced via Twitter, however, Zoom will remove this time limit for all users from 00:01am ET on Thanksgiving Day (November 26) until 06:00am the following day. We've built a list of the best business webcams right now Check out our list of the best office chairs on the market Here's our list of the best headsets for conference calls around Zoom video conferencing time-limit While no one’s idea of a perfect Thanksgiving involves dialling into a family video conference, with travel and close contact inadvisable (and in some places outlawed) due to the coronavirus pandemic, the gesture could help make the day feel at least a little more normal. As the pandemic has progressed, Zoom - and video conferencing in general - has grown from a predominantly business-centric tool to become a service millions rely upon to maintain personal relationships too. Since March, quick check-ins, family reunions, birthday parties and more have all been held over video conference. Zoom quizzes became the chosen medium (albeit fleetingly) for socializing with friends - and there were even a few Zoom weddings. Identifying this growing trend, Zoom even launched its own AirBnB-style virtual events marketplace - called OnZoom. The service gives Zoom customers a centralized platform on which to market, monetize and host any kind of online event, from fitness classes to piano tutorials and comedy shows. Delimiting conference calls might appear an insignificant gesture on the part of Zoom, but in the world in which we’re currently living, the ability to interact freely with others using the technology at our disposal is vital. With recent spikes in infection casting a shadow over Christmas celebrations too, it remains to be seen whether Zoom will extend the same kindness come December. Here's our list of the best collaboration tools out there
  5. Pictures and performance of NVIDIA's upcoming RTX 3060 Ti graphics card have leaked out from Videocardz (who else). NVIDIA's RTX 3060 Ti graphics card is going to feature 4864 CUDA cores and is going to be faster than the older RTX 2080 SUPER and priced in at just $399 USD. The card is expected to launch in early December and should make NVIDIA's mid-spectrum lineup killer. NVIDIA RTX 3060 Ti Pictures And Performance Leaked, landing on December 2, 2020 The NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Ti will feature GA104-200 GPU with 4864 CUDA cores and 8GB of GDDR6 memory clocked at 14 Gbps. The bus width will be 256-bits for a total bandwidth of 448 GB/s of bandwidth. Since the board will require less power, the TBP should be around 200W with the reference design clocking in at around 180W. This is a 5W increase over the RTX 2070 at 175W and in line with how we expect the Samsung node to fair in terms of power efficiency when compared to TSMC's nodes. It is expected to have an MSRP of $399 and will launch on December 2. The Founder's edition variant features the now-familiar metallic black aesthetic of the RTX 3080 and RTX 3090 but both fans are on the top of the card with a small cutout in the backplate visible in the back. The overall shape and form of the founder's edition is very consistent with the RTX 3000 series. The fan towards the end of the card is going to be pushing the air through the heatsink and out the bottom - which is an interesting design philosophy when compared to graphics cards from earlier in this decade. As far as benchmarks go, the RTX 3060 Ti is faster than the RTX 2080 SUPER and should trade blows with the RTX 2080 Ti. It is faster not only in shader performance but rendering (compute) and ray-tracing capabilities as well and completely demolishes the older RTX 2060 SUPER it replaces. Of course as with any benchmark comparison, always keep in mind that you should wait for third-party results before making any decision. Keep in mind that the reason NVIDIA's RTX 3090 and RTX 3080 cards are not scaling linearly in performance is due to bottlenecking by game engines and binaries that are not designed to handle this much amount of cores. We know that the hardware and driver stack scales linearly because of the benchmark performance of these cards in software like vRAY and Octane - which are designed to handle a huge amount of graphics power. This means that as you scale down cores, performance will not scale down linearly. In fact, I fully expect the RTX 3060 Ti to beat the RTX 2080 clock for clock! Assuming slightly less clocks than the RTX 2080 Ti, it should easily trade blows with the former flagship. Yields for the initial few batches of the Samsung 8nm node are lower than expected and expensive. The company expects the yields (and therefore prices for wafers) to significantly improve in the coming months. To protect its shareholders, the company has been cautious about its orders of the first few batches and has placed significantly higher volume orders for later batches. This problem was further exacerbated by bots scraping up the entire volume from the get-go. We expect the bulk orders to start hitting by the end of the year (assuming, once again, that miners don't gobble it all up of course).
  6. Another multiformat game has posted mostly comparable results on the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X, although once again Sony’s system seems to have the advantage – at least, until DIRT 5 receives further updates. Right now, the PS5 has a higher average resolution and improved texture filtering in the racer’s Image Quality mode, while it sees a significant increase in overall detail at 120 frames-per-second. In fact, the differences are so stark in the latter scenario that analysts Digital Foundry suspect this may be a bug. It’s worth noting that, while the performance is mostly marginally better across the board on Sony’s new console, the lack of VRR support means you’ll get a cleaner refresh rate on Xbox Series X if you have a compatible television. This feature will be added to PS5 as part of a future firmware update, the company has confirmed. So, it’s been a good start to the generation for multiformat games on PS5 – especially when Sony’s marginally weaker hardware was expected to come off slightly worse. Some are pegging the problem on Xbox Series X’s development environment, which is allegedly less mature than PlayStation’s. Either way, the differences between the two devices are frankly smaller than they’ve ever been, so we’re not sure how much this even matters anymore.
  7. No matter if the one to blame is the cable that powers the connection, Android Auto, Google Assistant, or a music app, there’s a lot Google needs to improve and fix, and most recently, users have come across another problem which should be resolved as soon as possible. This time, the one being impacted appears to be Google Maps, as the navigation now comes with a noticeable lag that makes using it rather a struggle. Worth knowing, however, is the whole thing isn’t affecting all users, but mostly those driving a Tata, though right now, it’s not exactly clear why only these models are plagued by the bug. A discussion thread on Google’s forums reveals that Google Maps also loses GPS tracking occasionally, and some say a recent Android Auto update made the experience even worse. “I am facing the same issue with my Tata Nexon XZ+. Initially, everything was fine but started recently. Not sure why. it happens when Spotify and Google Maps both are running. Sometimes it works but most of the time Map application lags and it shows that arrow 1-2 Km behind my actual location,” one user explains. There’s no workaround doing the trick for everybody, but if a recent Android Auto is indeed the culprit, then the easiest solution is to just downgrade to a previous release. You can find all Android Auto APK installers on this page should you need to manually go back to an older version. Google is yet to acknowledge these problems and Tata has remained tight-lipped too, so it’s hard to tell if this is a widespread error or not. Nevertheless, it’s another glitch that needs to be fixed, though as always, you’d better not hold your breath for a patch.
  8. Obesity is also linked to increased mortality and poor well being which makes it important for people with bad eating habits to pay more attention to their lifestyle. The society misconceptions that say people with more than 50 years of age cannot lose weight have been contradicted with recent research by Warwickshire Institute for the Study of Diabetes, Endocrinology and Metabolism (WISDEM) at UHCW who conducted a retrospective study to illustrate that age is no barrier to losing weight. According to a new study, lifestyle changes can make obese patients over the age of 60 to lose an equivalent amount of weight as younger people who will help to correct prevailing societal misconceptions about the effectiveness of weight loss programmes in older people, as well dispel myths about the potential benefits of older people trying to reduce their weight. The findings are based on analysis of patient records from a hospital-based obesity service and are reported in the journal Clinical Endocrinology. The researchers randomly selected 242 patients who attended the WISDEM-based obesity service between 2005 and 2016 and compared two groups (those aged under 60 years and those aged between 60 and 78 years) for the weight loss that they achieved during their time within the service. All patients had their body weight measured both before and after lifestyle interventions administered and coordinated within the WISDEM-based obesity service, and the percentage reduction in body weight was calculated across both groups. When compared, the two groups were equivalent statistically, with those aged 60 years and over on average reducing their body weight by 7.3% compared with a bodyweight reduction of 6.9% in those aged fewer than 60 years. Both groups spent a similar amount of time within the obesity service, on average 33.6 months for those 60 years and over, and 41.5 months for those younger than 60 years. Focusing on lifestyle changes, the hospital-based programme tailored on the dietary changes to each individual patient, psychological support and encouragement of physical activity. Most of the patients referred to the obesity service were morbidly obese with BMIs typically over 40Kgm-2. There are more than fifty co-morbidities of obesity that can be lessened as we lose weight, including diabetes, psychiatric conditions such as depression and anxiety, osteoarthritis and other mechanical problems. Lead author Dr Thomas Barber of Warwick Medical School at the University of Warwick said: “Weight loss is important at any age, but as we get older we’re more likely to develop the weight-related co-morbidities of obesity. Many of these are similar to the effects of ageing, so you could argue that the relevance of weight loss becomes heightened as we get older, and this is something that we should embrace,” “There are a number of reasons why people may discount weight loss in older people. These include an ‘ageist’ perspective that weight-loss is not relevant to older people and misconceptions of the reduced ability of older people to lose weight through dietary modification and increased exercise.” “Service providers and policymakers should appreciate the importance of weight loss in older people with obesity, for the maintenance of health and wellbeing, and the facilitation of healthy ageing,” he added. “Age should be no barrier to the lifestyle management of obesity. Rather than putting up barriers to older people accessing weight loss programmes, we should be proactively facilitating that process. To do otherwise would risk further and unnecessary neglect of older people through societal ageist misconceptions,” the study says.

  9. Canada's chief public health officer is urging Canadians to "make a plan for safer holidays" amid record spikes of COVID-19 across the country. Dr. Theresa Tam said in a statement on Sunday that, as we near the holiday season, it's imperative Canadians take into account public health measures when planning for celebrations. "Our best protection, now and into the holiday season, is to limit errands and outings to the essentials, keep in-person social activities to our existing household and strictly and consistently maintain public health practices," Tam said. "That doesn't mean we can't continue to find safe ways to have the meaningful celebrations that are so important for maintaining our traditions and social connections," she added. We have seen how creative Canadians can be, from online game nights and sharing special meals together virtually with people outside our household, to warmly dressed, physically distanced walkabouts and cheering our neighbours with decorated balconies, windows and lawns." Tam's statement comes a day after four provinces — Alberta, Saskatchewan, Ontario and New Brunswick — reported single-day highs for new cases. Officials have warned that, if close contacts are not tamped down, federal modelling showed Canada could see a worst-case scenario of 60,000 new cases a day. What's happening across Canada As of 3 p.m. ET Sunday, Canada's COVID-19 case count stood at 328,916, with 54,075 of those considered active cases. A CBC News tally of deaths based on provincial reports, regional health information and CBC's reporting stood at 11,455. In British Columbia, an outbreak has been declared at a Kelowna long-term care home. According to a written statement from Interior Health, one staff member has tested positive for the virus. No residents have tested positive or are experiencing symptoms. Saskatchewan announced 236 new cases. Hospitalizations in the province are now at a record high at 99, of which 19 are in intensive care. Manitoba recorded 243 new cases of COVID-19 and 12 more deaths. Sunday's new cases marks the lowest single-day increase in the province since Nov. 14 — when 237 new cases were announced — but hospitalizations and patients in intensive care are now at an all-time high at 288 and 52 respectively. Ontario reported 1,534 new cases and 14 more deaths. Meanwhile, Premier Doug Ford is urging residents against panic buying and crowding malls as Toronto and Peel Region prepare to move into lockdown on Monday. Quebec reported 1,154 new cases and 23 more deaths. New Brunswick added six more cases, a day after seeing a record-high of 23. Nova Scotia recorded 11 new cases, the highest daily number since May 4. Meanwhile, Dalhousie University in Halifax said two of its students have tested positive. WATCH | Halifax businesses prepare as N.S. rolls back gathering limits: Newfoundland and Labrador announced three new cases on Sunday, a day after reporting five new cases, the largest single-day increase in cases in the province since April 16. In Prince Edward Island, the province's new mandatory mask rule means some changes for entertainment venues. Nunavut reported 21 new cases, of which 18 are in the hard-hit community of Arviat. Rankin Inlet added two more cases, while Whale Cove had one. "Health teams are working around the clock in Arviat, Whale Cove and Rankin Inlet to trace, test, isolate and contain the spread of the virus," Dr. Michael Patterson, the territory's chief public health officer, said in a statement. What's happening around the world As of Sunday, there were more than 58.2 million reported cases of COVID-19 worldwide, with more than 37.2 million of those cases listed as recovered, according to a COVID-19 tracking tool maintained by Johns Hopkins University. The global death toll stood at more than 1.3 million. In Asia, the daily tally of reported cases in Japan hit a record for the fourth day in a row, with 2,508 people confirmed infected, the Health Ministry said Sunday. A flurry of criticism has erupted, from opposition legislators and the public, slamming the government as having acted too slowly in halting its "GoTo" campaign, which encouraged travel and dining out with discounts. In Europe, French authorities ordered the culling of all minks at a farm after analysis showed a mutated version of the coronavirus was circulating among the animals. The move follows virus developments in mink farms in Denmark and other countries, including the Netherlands, Sweden and Greece. In the Americas, Chile says it will open its main border crossing and principal airport to foreign visitors on Monday after an eight-month pandemic shutdown. Arrivals will have to present evidence of a recent negative test for the novel coronavirus, as well as health insurance. They'll also have to report their whereabouts and health status for a two-week watch period. Those coming from high-risk countries will have to quarantine for 14 days. In Africa, Sudan's minister of cabinet affairs on Sunday tested positive for the coronavirus, the prime minister's office said, the latest in a string of senior officials to be infected as the country shows an increase of confirmed cases of COVID-19. Over the past month, acting ministers of finance and health, the central bank governor and two associates to Prime Minister Abdalla Hamdok have tested positive.

  11. What's the true value of flexible, modular, easily transportable distributed control system (DCS) software? Oh sure, it might streamline the average migration project, but what's it worth if it can help a manufacturer rebuild from a devastating fire, and get a major production line up and running two or three times faster than would've been possible without that software? What's the price of a gain that huge? Priceless might be a good word. Well, that's just the scenario that went down on a press and forming line at Plummer Forest Products in Post Falls, Idaho, in March 2019, when a bearing failed on an exhaust fan, dropping sparks on the hot stacker and loader in-feed equipment. This triggered several small explosions, and then a large explosion and fire, which severely damaged the production line, gutted its operations booth and controls, and burned a hole through the roof of the building. The plant was quickly evacuated as the fire spread, and thankfully no one was injured. However, as is the case with most fires, there was even more damage from the water used to put it out. The facility's 200 sprinkler heads ran for five hours, and water damaged its motor control centers (MCCs), primary controller rack, and remote systems consoles that were left with internal components floating in water. Regroup, rebuild, rewire With the company and its employees and their 70 families depending on a quick return to production, Plummer and its two system integrators, Advanced Electrical Technologies (AET) and Global Process Automation (GPA), quickly set to work, along with everyone else at the company. The team presented their story, "Devastating fire means rapid rebuild with Plant PAx DCS in record time" this week in the Process Solutions User Group conference track during Automation Fair At Home. Together, they reported going from starting to rebuild to sending identical finished product out the door in just three months. The rebuild included the plant's electrical systems, and the PlantPAx DCS from Rockwell Automation made it possible for their recovery to happen so quickly. The rebuild and electrical work started in June, one-shift production resumed in the first week of September, and the plant was back up to full, 24/7 production in November 2019. "Our job was to keep the consoles as close as possible to what they were before, so they'd be familiar to the operators, let them go back to work, pick up where they left off, and resume production as fast as possible. We salvaged, rebuilt and repainted the consoles, and added PlantPAx, too," said Adam Hamer, automation manager at AET. "One capability that helped right away was the Integrated Architecture Builder (IAB) software tool in PlantPAx, which integrated with Plummer's existing system, and let us rebuild its network topology much faster." IAB was also useful because, while plenty of fire-damaged wire had to be replaced, AET and GPA were able to reuse a significant amount of in-place cables. "We lived close to our scrum whiteboard and P&ID drawings for quite awhile, but we also found that we didn't have to replace some legacy stuff, such as the Profibus modules that talk to the Siemens I/O points. We were able to use pre-wired 1492-IFM modules and cables, which helped us wire the controller cabinets quickly." Recreating the look Robert Anderson, account manager at Plummer, reported that one task in reconstructing the press line's human-machine interface (HMI) system was converting scripts in the previously used Wonderware software to FactoryTalk View SE in PlantPAx. It also migrated from its former Honeywell Measurex recipe management system to PlantPAx's RecipePro. "We were able to use the PlantPAx add-on instructions and available faceplates to give us a common look and feel. We were also able to cut and paste instructions, which let us set up I/O and motors faster, and use FactoryTalk View SE to quickly duplicate our previous HMI graphics," said Anderson. "We also got immediate feedback from our operators about what was working or what needed to be fixed, and all of this input had a huge impact on our ability to recover so quickly. In fact, after startup and just three runs, we were producing sellable product." Anderson added that the 1,625-ton forming press typically produces 25-layer sheets, with about half going to retailers for sale as underlayment products, and half going to industrial manufacturers after receiving additional laminations. "We also had get the line's motors and servos up and running again, and integrated them and two PowerFlex 700S drives with the PlantPAx DCS. All together, we had 2,500 to 3,000 I/O," added Anderson. "We weren't glad about the fire, of course, but we were happy with how everyone pitched in, and that we worked so well together so well with AET and GPA,” Anderson said. “Everyone understood and worked to meet our fast timeline. PlantPAx worked great, too—we're planning to use it in other operations across our plant to help optimize the products we make every day."
  12. If you thought we have seen all of AMD's Radeon RX 6800 XT overclocking potential, then you were wrong. Overclockers have now pushed the Radeon RX 6800 XT 'Big Navi' graphics card even further with the use of Liquid Nitrogen cooling, achieving a brand new world record in the Fire Strike hall of fame. AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT Overclocked To 2.8 GHz on LN2 Cooling, Sets New 3DMark World Record Previously, we had seen the AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT graphics card pushed to 2.65 GHz on air that is still a very impressive result but it looks like to push the card further, LN2 cooling is required and this is for the first time that we have seen AMD's GPUs hitting clocks close to 3.0 GHz which remind us of the Pascal overclocking days.he feat was achieved by Chinese overclocked, Takukou, who used a reference Radeon RX 6800 XT graphics card from AMD and pushed it to 2.8 GHz on LN2 cooling. In addition to the GPU, the setup also featured an LN2 cooled AMD Ryzen 9 5950X CPU which was running at 5.6 GHz along with 32 GB of DDR4 memory. With the overclock, the GPU was able to score an overall score of 48,890 points and 61,831 graphics points in the 3DMark Fire Strike benchmark. This makes the Radeon RX 6800 XT not only the fastest GPU on the planet but also the only GPU to have broken the 60K barrier in 3DMark Fire Strike. If we compare it with the previous entry, you can see a 4% performance uplift in performance with a 150 MHz higher boost clock. But that's not all, we can expect other overclockers to land in their LN2 results soon, pushing the card as high as 3 GHz which is still a record held by NVIDIA's GeForce GTX 1060 graphics card set back in 2016. We can expect the Radeon RX 6900 XT to reign supreme in the HWBot Hall of Fame once it launches next month but for now, even the Radeon RX 6800 XT is a force to be reckoned with, offering insane overclocking potential with a very compelling price versus its competitor & even NVIDIA's flagship RTX 3090 graphics card. AMD RX 6800 XT "Big Navi 21 XT" GPU Powered 16 GB Graphics Card The AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT will come packed with the Navi 21 XT GPU which is a cut-down SKU featuring 72 Compute Units or 4608 SPs. The card will also feature 16 GB of GDDR6 memory across a 256-bit bus interface, a 512 GB/s total bandwidth, and clock speeds of 2015 MHz base and 2250 MHz boost at reference specs. The AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT also packs 72 Ray Accelerators which are dedicated for real-time raytracing workloads. The card will feature a based TBP of 300W with factory-overclocked models pushing it above 350W and will arrive at a later date. In addition to the standard memory, the Radeon RX 6800 series graphics cards will also feature 128 MB of Infinity Cache on the GPU die. The cache will help boost bandwidth for higher performance at resolutions beyond 1080p HD. The 128 MB Infinity Cache boosts the standard 512 GB/s bandwidth by 3.25x, delivering an effective bandwidth of up to 1.664 TB/s across all Big Navi GPU based graphics cards.
  13. Game information Initial release date: November 12, 2020 Series: Astro Bot Publisher: Sony Interactive Entertainment Mode: Single player video game Software developers: Japan Studio, Team ASOBI! Platform: PlayStation 5 Is there an argument that Asobi Team is the most inventive Sony studio right now? The small sector of Japan Studio is certainly getting the most out of the platform holder’s hardware, as Astro Bot Rescue Mission proved by completely reinvigorating the classic 3D platformer on PlayStation VR. With its latest project, free PlayStation 5 pack-in Astro’s Playroom, the group has single-handedly demonstrated the power of the new DualSense controller – but it’s also concocted a love letter to PlayStation that will live with fans long after launch. Unlike past efforts like Welcome Park and The Playroom, this complimentary content is less tech demo and more full game. Spanning four worlds and 16 levels, with a few additional secrets along the way, you can consider this a micro-campaign that will take you anywhere from three to six hours to complete. There are over 100 collectibles to discover, many of which can be observed in an interactive hub, which serves as a virtual gallery for PlayStation’s past. This is an experience for everyone, but those who recognise franchises like Jumping Flash will truly get the most out of it. Indeed, virtually every frame of this meticulously assembled platformer pays homage to Sony’s legacy. The references lurch from the obvious to the utterly obscure, like an interactive catapult that harkens back to mad PlayStation 3 bruise-‘em-up Pain to the fact that you can find a meticulously rendered rendition of the PS Move Shooting Attachment. It’s extraordinary just how much fanservice has been condensed into this package, and it serves as the perfect starting point for the PlayStation 5: a reminder of why you fell in love with the brand to begin with. But love is a fleeting sensation, and this game’s main aim is to retain your affection. As a platformer, this is a tight effort, with sturdy controls and colourful level design, but its use of the DualSense is what elevates it beyond the sum of its parts. While the best titles rely on that intangible magic known as “game feel” to elevate them above their peers, this extraordinary effort quite literally feels different to anything that’s come before it. Using a combination of the PS5 pad’s haptic feedback, adaptive triggers, and motion controls, it offers an additional layer of physical immersion. This is a game where you can actually feel the difference between a rain shower and a driving downpour or how the texture of sand differs to snow. A section where you assume the role of a bouncing spring allows you to judge the distribution of weight from one side of the controller to another, while firing a machine gun rattles the triggers to give you the sensation of real firepower. A climbing frame sequence requires you to softly caress the triggers; push past the point of resistance and you’ll crumble the grip points. Every idea is given just enough time to be developed, before it’s ditched and exchanged for something else. There are secrets to discover away from the critical path, and these usually test the skills you’ve learned thus far; the game’s never particularly tough, opting for a relatively breezy challenge, but there’s enough here to tax your ability without ever forcing you into frustration. And a series of unlockable time trial-type levels add longevity once you’re done, with global leaderboards allowing you to test your skills against the wider gaming public. It all looks and sounds exquisite, too – perhaps not the next-gen showcase that Marvel’s Spider-Man: Miles Morales and Demon’s Souls deliver, but crisp and colourful. Reflective surfaces utilise raytracing to add depth to certain objects and scenes, while great art direction gives some sequences more grandeur than you may be expecting – like when the giant from Astro Bot Rescue Mission pops up to help you on your merry way. It’s the tiny details that will delight, though – like when you unlock a PlayStation and realise that by double-jumping on its power button it’ll actually turn on and play that sound effect.

  14. Ogni mille abitanti in Italia ci sono 646 automobili. Il nostro Paese è il secondo nell’Unione europea per tasso di motorizzazione. Fa meglio solo in ricco Lussemburgo, 676 auto ogni mille abitanti. Con una piccola differenza: in Lussemburgo il Pil procapite è di 116.639 dollari mentre in Italia si scende a 34.483. Cipro e Finlandia sono terzi parimerito con 629 auto, Polonia 617, Malta 608. I dati Eurostat relativi al 2018 fotografano la situazione della motorizzazione dei Paesi che appartengono all’Unione europea. TASSO DI RINNOVO— La differenza di reddito tra primo e secondo Paese nel continente per tasso di motorizzazione si può riflettere su un’altra tabella dell’ente statistico continentale, quella relativa al tasso di rinnovo delle auto che è composto dalla percentuale delle prime immatricolazioni sul totale di pratiche auto. In Lussemburgo, sempre dato 2018, si arriva al 12,7%, il tasso più alto dell’Unione europea. In coda c’è la Romania con appena il 2%. In mezzo, ma nella parte bassa della classifica c’è l’Italia con il 5% circa .PARCO CIRCOLANTE— Secondo i dati Aci sul parco circolante in Italia nel 2019, composto da 39.545.232 auto, poco più di 4 milioni hanno al massimo due anni. Ben più consistente il gruppo di macchine con un’età tra 5 e 10 anni, 7.364.245 mezzi; quelle tra 10 e 15 anni, 9.421.621 macchine; e quelle tra 15 e 20 anni, 6.217.973 auto. Solo queste tre fasce, senza contare quelle con auto oltre i 20 anni, rappresentano il 56,4% del parco circolante, ovvero 23.003.839 mezzi. Nella distribuzione per alimentazioni il 46%, pari a 18.174.338 è a benzina; il 44,2% ossia 17.467.776 è diesel; il 6,5% a Gpl; il 2,4% a Metano, le ibride benzina sono lo 0,8%, le elettriche lo 0,1%. Nei prossimi mesi sarà possibile capire come e quanto gli incentivi per l’acquisto auto, già esauriti per le auto con emissioni da 61 a 110 g/km di anidride carbonica, abbiano inciso sulla composizione del parco circolante italiano: rimangono i fondi per l’acquisto di elettriche e di ibride plug-in. Qualche indicazione preliminare sull’efficacia di Ecobonus e incentivi arriva dal dato sulle radiazioni di autovetture, considerato che l’aiuto statale è maggiore con la contestuale rottamazione di una macchina: a ottobre la crescita delle radiazioni è stata del 6% rispetto allo stesso mese del 2019; tuttavia nei primi 10 mesi del 2020 le cancellazioni dal pubblico registro di macchine, complice il lockdown, sono calate del 19,6%.
  15. A discussion between linguist and social critic Noam Chomsky and historian-editor Vijay Prashad, part of the ongoing week-long Tata Literature Live! The Mumbai LitFest, was cancelled hours before the event on Friday, the two said in a joint statement. Scheduled to take place on Friday evening, over the online platform Zoom, it was to be live streamed on various social-media platforms. The move follows the duo’s decision to read a statement against “corporations such as the Tatas, and the Tatas in particular”, responding to a joint appeal by 50 activists and civil society members, urging them to not participate in an event sponsored by the company. In their statement, the academics said that the organisers got in touch with them in September to participate in a conversation around Chomsky’s latest book, Internationalism or Extinction (2019, Routledge). Speaking to The Sunday Express, Prashad said, “Both of us agreed to hold this dialogue because we believe that the themes in the book, be it the dangers of nuclear war, climate change, and the erosion of democracy, require debate and discussion.” The US-based Prashad added that they were only informed of the cancellation on the day of the event, without citing any reason. Responding to the incident, a senior member of the festival’s organising committee said, “The different programmes at the festival give an insight into the kind of diversity of views and subjects being covered, which in the present political climate, would be considered absolutely anti- establishment… However, the idea of the festival is to have a free exchange of ideas, and not a free exchange of anyone’s agenda.” Festival director Anil Dharker in a statement late Saturday expressed respect and admiration for Chomsky, but said the decision to cancel the session ” was necessary to protect the integrity of the festival”.
  16. “On winter mornings, just as the sun’s uncertain light slopes across the Tanana Flats, ravens fly over my log cabin on their daily commute to town. Perhaps, like me, they would prefer to remain here in the hills above Fairbanks, where temperatures are usually ten or twenty degrees warmer. But town is where the day’s work lies, where ravens and people earn their daily victuals. Dozens of the birds crest the ridges alone, in pairs, strung out in groups that punctuate the sky like ellipses. They sail over slopes covered with spare aspen and birch trees and descend on the city wedged between the frozen Tanana and Chena Rivers. Across other ridges, from other directions, hundreds of ravens are flying through the thin light to pick at the carcass of civilization.” I wish I had written that. I did not. Sherry Simpson did. One day, or more likely a series of days, she tapped into her keyboard one of the clearest descriptions of both ravens and the city of Fairbanks in winter. Sherry died at age 60 a few weeks ago, in New Mexico. She passed away from a brain tumor just a few days after doctors discovered it. My former boss here at the Geophysical Institute once told me that Sherry was interested in this job when it came open in 1994. For some reason, Sherry ended up not applying. If she had, I would have been doing something else. As a writing teacher at the University of Alaska Anchorage and elsewhere, Sherry gently shoved many writers to their best work. In my experience, writers improve most when challenged by good editors. Sherry was one of those for me. We shared an office a lifetime ago, at the Fairbanks Daily News-Miner. The newsroom was an expansive space, with tiny horizontal windows near the ceiling; only the tallest could see anything but sky through them. In the air was the machine-gun fire of reporters typing on deadline. Sherry had one of the only private offices, somewhat out of the hum. In there, she was smiley and helpful, and she found funniness in many things. And, man, could she write. Writing is a hard thing to teach. There is structure and formula to it, and I guess some people think of those elements as they write. But Sherry advised me to just let ‘er fly. And then rewrite, rewrite, rewrite. Though I had not seen her in years, she is sometimes part of my routine. Once in a while, before starting a column, I read an essay of Sherry’s, to warm up my neurons. After a few paragraphs, I hear her slow, sure cadence. I try to duplicate that beat. As Bono said, every poet is a thief. Sherry once told writer Andromeda Romano-Lax that she wrote guided more by her intuition than her intellect. “Muddling through seems to be my time-tested strategy,” Sherry said. After Sherry’s muddle was complete, the reader was left with a writer’s most-effective gift — images painted on our mind-screens: “When daylight eases from the sky several hours later, the ravens return the same way they came, like arrows loosed toward the twilight gathering at the northern edge of the world.” I have watched those black arrows arc out of town. And I have written about them. But when I sit at the computer for those sessions, I avoid reading Sherry’s take on the same subject. That would be like picking up the guitar and trying to play an Eddie Van Halen riff. In addition to her skill at planting pictures in readers’ heads, the Sherry Difference included never settling for a lazy verb: “At forty below and colder, when the rest of us are feeling pretty damn sorry for ourselves, the ravens are still out there on the mean streets, hunched atop light poles, poking through garbage bags, fluffing out feathers until they look like cranky old men in down parkas.” Her raven story, which first appeared in Alaska magazine and endures in her book of essays “The Way Winter Comes,” is one of my favorite examples of science writing. The word science makes readers expect something hard, but Sherry entertained us into learning something. Consider this passage, a closing tribute to a modest superstar: “Until I moved to this small cabin on the ridge, I had somehow missed the most intriguing and mysterious thing about ravens — that daily passage from darkness into daylight and back again. The raven re-enacts the physical and metaphorical journey every northerner makes from fall into spring. Winter is literally a turning-away from the light, a tilt of the globe that spins us into the spacious territory of night. The night offers its own solace — the hard, familiar stars, the oceanic incandescence of the aurora borealis. But we measure our pilgrimage through winter in increments of sun: minutes of light lost or gained, the shifting balance between day and night. “This much is known: At twilight the ravens are bound for roosts far beyond the city, where they settle companionably among the branches of spruce trees for the night. Think of them out there, scraps of living night rustling and shifting under a sky less black than they are.”
  17. Facebook has filed a lawsuit in the US against Turkish software developer Ensar Sahinturk for scraping peoples publicly-visible information from Instagram in order to create a network of over 20 clone sites. The social media network said Sahinturk used automation software to scrape public profiles, photos and videos from more than 100,000 Instagram accounts without Instagram’s permission and in violation of Facebook terms. He published this data on a network of clone sites, where anyone could enter an Instagram username to view Instagram user profiles, pictures, videos, stories, hashtags and locations A clone site is a website that copies and displays Instagram or Facebook profiles, posts and other information without the users’ knowledge or consent. When this happens, people lose visibility and control of who is viewing their content and interacting with their account. Facebook had previously disabled the defendant’s Instagram and Facebook accounts and sent cease and desist letters. “We are now filing suit to obtain a permanent injunction against Sahinturk,” Facebook said. Facebook in October filed a lawsuit against two companies that scraped data from its main app, Instagram, Twitter, YouTube, LinkedIn and Amazon to sell “marketing intelligence” and other services in a global operation. “The actions of BrandTotal, an Israeli-based company, and Unimania, incorporated in Delaware, violate our Terms of Service and we are pursuing legal action to protect our users,” Facebook had said in a statement. These companies exploited users’ access to Facebook service through a set of browser extensions called UpVoice and Ads Feed designed to access and collect data.
  18. PowerColor's recently revealed Radeon RX 6800 XT Red Devil behemoth has been put to the test by Thai tech outlet, ExtremeIT (via Videocardz). The graphics card is the flagship PowerColor offering & will feature an insane triple-slot & triple-fan design which we detailed over here. PowerColor's Insane Radeon RX 6800 XT Red Devil Graphics Cards Hits 2.65 GHz Overclock on Air, Memory Overclocked To 17.2 Gbps The YouTuber got access to the PowerColor Radeon RX 6800 XT Red Devil but posted some test results prior to the embargo lift of the card which should be in a few days. With that said, the Red Devil comes in a Limited Edition flavor and only 1000 units are produced as indicated by the label on the backplate. As for the test, Radeon RX 6800 XT Red Devil was overclocked to a mind-blowing 2800 MHz clock speed but the overclock wasn't stable. The GPU was then configured to a more conservative 2.65 GHz clock speed which is still 310 MHz higher than its out-of-box factory overclock of 2340 MHz on boost. The memory was also pushed to 2150 MHz which equals 17.2 Gbps for an effective memory bandwidth of 550 GB/s. A few games were tested but the most interesting benchmark was the 3DMark Fire Strike run with the 2.65 GHz overclock. The Radeon RX 6800 XT Red Devil scored an impressive 56,756 points in the benchmark which is close to the world record of 59,606 points. Do note that we are comparing graphics score and not the overall score as the test setups vary a lot in terms of configurations. The world record run was also obtained on a 2.65 GHz clock on-air and using the reference cooler. This shows that with LN2, the RX 6800 XT can definitely breach 2.9-3.0 GHz clocks which is an amazing feat for AMD's Big Navi GPU. Another interesting aspect of the card is how well it can keep up with the insanely high clock speed that the Red Devil has to offer. The Radeon RX 6800 XT Red Devil was hovering around 55-56C with 2.6 GHz+ boost clocks with a fan speed of 100%. Even with the reference profile, the temperatures were hovering around 65C. As for the Red Devil, the graphics card is expected to launch about a week or two (25th November) after the Radeon RX 6800 XT & RX 6800 series launch so pricing and specifications would be posted later on.
  19. PlayStation Productions, the new division within Sony Interactive Entertainment designed to create television and film adaptations of its po[CENSORED]r game franchises, is really cooking now. Following the completion of principle photography for the Uncharted Movie, the group has now officially sold its previously announced first season of The Last of Us to HBO. That means the TV show written by Craig Mazin and Neil Druckmann will now go into production soon. Game of Thrones’ Carolyn Strauss will executive produce alongside Naughty Dog’s Evan Wells and Sony’s Asad Qizilbash and Carter Swan. The series is being co-produced by Sony Pictures Television, PlayStation Productions, Word Games, and Naughty Dog. “We’re thrilled to be working with HBO and this fantastic creative team to bring The Last of Us series to life,” said Jeff Frost, the president of Sony Pictures Television Studios. “PlayStation’s innovative storytelling and ingenuity is a natural complement to SPT’s creative focus. Our collaboration is a great example of our ‘One Sony’ philosophy at work. We look forward to developing even more iconic game IP in the future.” The show will follow the events of the first game, as Joel and Ellie embark on a cross-country journey across the United States in a post-apocalyptic world. There’s no tentative release date or provisional casting choices currently announced, but we’re sure we’ll be learning a lot more about the project in the near future.
  20. The UK’s appetite for used cars remains ‘strong’ despite lockdown measures affecting much of the country. That’s according to Auto Trader boss Nathan Coe, who predicts that demand will continue into the new year – though supply issues could cause tough times for retailers. Speaking to Car Dealer Magazine, Coe said: “My personal view and Autotrader’s view as well is that underlying demand is strong. I don’t think that’s going away any time soon – we’re seeing that now. Demand isn’t as strong as we saw 12 months ago but that’s partly because we’re in a lockdown. It’s still strong and it is up compared to where we were pre-COVID, which is quite exceptional. “I’m very confident that even during this period I suspect retailers will be doing more trade than they expected, because of that underlying strong demand. “I think when we get to January, the demand will still be strong. We don’t quite know how strong, but we’re talking levels that are well above where we were pre-COVID.” However, Coe also admitted that the uncertainty regarding Brexit is having a knock-on effect for the used car market, while if vehicle supply lines are disrupted into the UK it would give European car makers less of an incentive to get their vehicles into the country. Coe added trade lines being thrown into disorder “not only means less new cars, but it also means less used cars.” It comes as the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders (SMMT) announced that the used car market had ‘bounced back’ by 4.4 per cent in the third quarter of 2020, with more than two million vehicles changing hands. Despite this boost, the used car segment remained down with more than a million fewer transactions taking place over the first nine months of the year compared with 2019 – a 17.5 per cent decline.
  21. In what appears to be great news for Indian travel enthusiasts, South Africa has decided to relax its restrictions for Indian travellers — after a prolonged period, as part of its coronavirus safety protocols — thereby allowing entry for both business and leisure travelling from the country. According to reports, beginning November 23, Indian leisure and business travellers will be allowed to send their tourist visa applications to any nearest VFS Global Office. In fact, the Consulate General of the Republic of South Africa is believed to have said that all international arrivals will be allowed with prescribed safety rules after a negative COVID-19 test certificate is presented, for it is mandatory. As per reports, Africa had stopped all international travel from March 2020, when almost every country began to understand the nature of the virus and went into a state of lockdown. In October 2020, the government had finally reopened the country’s borders to international tourists, barring countries like India, Germany and the USA — where the number of case is evidently high. And now, Indians can travel the country, too. All international travellers to South Africa will have to follow some rules. * It is compulsory to present a negative PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction) test, taken not more than 72 hours before the time of flying. * In event of inability to present the said certificate as proof, travellers will have to self-quarantine at their own expense. * For international flights, the airports which are operational are: Cape Town International; O.R. Tambo International, Johannesburg; King Shaka International, Durban. * In case your journey begins or involves passing through the ‘yellow fever belt’ of Africa or Central and South America, a yellow fever vaccination certificate is also required. ALSO READ | Travelling in the ‘new normal’: How pandemic has changed the rules of the game Indians, in particular, will need the following documents for a tourist visa to South Africa: * A passport valid for 30 days after the journey dates, with at least two blank pages. * Three months’ bank statement, with a balance of INR 3,000, officially stamped on the bank letterhead. * A complete visa application Form-11 (DHA-84). * Proof of hotel booking. * A daily itinerary. * Valid air tickets or proof of hotel reservation. * Two passport-sized photographs. * Passport copies. * Original cover letter confirming the duration of travel and trip details, signed by the traveller.
