Data Centers are notorious places for major energy consumption, as well as for products that are made from materials that are not always friendly to the local environment. There are, however, many ways to create a Green Policy for your data Solutions Center that gives back to your bottom line. After all, every time you reduce energy consumption you reduce your operating costs. Here are some techniques/products our IT Engineers Love.

1.) Use Blanking Panels. Just by passively directly the flow of air, you can result in a 25% reduction in cooling requirements. One of our enclosure manufacturers shared a real application with us. A data center manager they worked with was having trouble with the facilities manager (like that never happens, right?) over the amount of cooling they were going to need for the next fiscal year based on the new equipment requirements.

They were going to add about 30 new servers to the data center and the facilities manager told them there was no way they were going to get another air handler. In this application, the data center manager added his 30 new servers, but also added blanking panels to the empty spaces in the racks. This resulted in the cold air being forced to go to the dedicated server and not flow randomly. The net effect was a 30% reduction in energy consumption, in spite of the additional power draw for the servers.

2.) Find a way to add new IT equipment to existing legacy IT systems to a business. This is less costly and more efficient than replacing the whole IT infrastructure. It also eliminates tossing a lot of equipment into the ever-growing garbage dumps. We found that Mincom has a solution to allow you to access and control legacy devices through a single piece of equipment and management software.

3.) Go lights out. Remote Managed and Metered Power is a great tool, but you should also look for software that allows you to manage all of your equipment remotely, through a single session, as well as enable others to have access as needed. Again, our favorite was Minicom. Their solution has time and again shown how they can not only save energy costs through remote management, but also overall IT expenses through access controls to legacy equipment.

4.) Look for EPEAT rated products. The data center extends beyond the server room to the offices loaded with laptops, CPUs, Monitors and Thin Client. EPEAT is a rating system to help you find those products that meet environmental standards. In this case, it is always best to “go for the gold”. Gold Rated Products have met all 23 of the mandatory requirements, as well as 75% of the optional items.

Making changes sound hard, but in this case, they are actually fairly easy. The end result is your ability as a disaster recovery management to control a budget that easily gets out of hand. Your other added benefit is making new friends in the facilities department …

Fire fighting offshore is different than fire fighting inland. The former requires different strategies because the environment is just not the same, even though the circumstances during which fire accidents can start off are basically similar. Accidents usually happen when the ship is quite far from the coast, and in these instances, help is usually difficult to summon. Of course, it is imperative that all ocean vessels be equipped with marine fire fighting equipment like a роrtаblе fіrе еxtіnguіѕhеr. But it is really not adequate to have such equipment. Having people or trained personnel who know how to put them in use once the need arises is more important, for these devices would render futile with nobody trained to use them properly.

Most accidents happen because of negligence and irresponsibility. Authorized personnel aboard the ship should initiate making rounds to inspect all the sections of the ship. Everybody on board should not ignore the importance of constantly being alert to ensure everybody else’s safety, as well as the safety of the entire vessel afloat.

Fire is one of the most frequent maritime disasters and it occurs as a result of many factors. Fire is classified into four classes. The first one is due to combustible matter like wood and paper. This class can be put out using water. However, other kinds of fire caused by other factors cannot be easily put out by water-based extinguishers. Flammable fluids cause Class B fire. Kerosene, oil and LPG may fuel fire that cannot be put out by simple application of water. Water fog may extinguish the flames by removing heat. Foam extinguishers may starve the fire of oxygen. Steam may be used in a few cases. Electrical equipment causes Class C fire which is killed using carbon dioxide based fire extinguishing equipment. Accidental exposure of reactive metals like sodium and magnesium can cause rapid evolution of heat that causes fire. While water fog is effective for magnesium fire, dry chemical extinguishers put out sodium induced fire.

Note that proper storage of chemicals and flammable fluids is imperative in fire prevention. As earlier implied it is not enough to install fire safety devices. Preventive efforts must be instilled.

On board personnel can put out minor fire accident using portable and installed equipment. However, immediate measures such as calling for external help and assistance and informing nearby ships.

Fire fighting operations on a ship is tough. A team will have to run up and down narrow stairways and corridors. In some cases, when fire originates from the lower interior of the ship, the fire brigade will have to deal with spreading heat and stifling smoke while going down. Hence, wearing of self contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) is important to avoid suffocation and imminent death from inhalation of toxic fumes and gases.

Medical help should be at hand, and transportation of everyone on board, injured or not, should be considered if fire impends to spread uncontrollably. Severe cases of fire disaster should prompt immediate evacuation …

In a bustling economy, it seemed everyone wanted to become service residence in kl. Some individuals even quit their regular jobs to get into a marketplace they had an opportunity to take full advantage of.

Of course, before being able to work the business, you need to go to jesselton penang. Different states have different requirements but in general all you need is a high school diploma. Schools average about 40 hours of coursework and this can be broken down into perhaps a few weekends, or other schools advocated one night a week for a few months, giving students a better opportunity to understand and remember the coursework.

After school is over you are then required to take your state’s licensing exam. Once you pass you are typically recruited by every real estate agency in your town because they have access to all the new licensee names.

As you go to interview with these agencies, you are rarely told how much money it’s going to cost you to get into the business. These agencies will do and say anything to get you to work for them because of course the more people they have, the better chance they have to increase sales.

As you see dollar signs in front of your eyes, you don’t realize that you are truly working for yourself. Period. And as any independent contractor, because that’s what you are, it costs money to be in business. Typically you will need to come up with over $1,000 just to start working at most agencies. You will be charged for MLS fees, office administrative fees which include use of phone, space, etc., along with business cards, general advertising expenses, liability insurance, and a host of other possibilities.

Once you are shown to your new desk, you’re pretty much on your own. This is where you realize that what you learned in real estate school isn’t helping you much at all. Real estate school teaches you about tax stamps and deed rights, but it doesn’t teach you a thing about how to sell property. Most agencies don’t provide much on the job training and you’d better find a mentor quick before you quit.

To help you get some customers you will probably be given the opportunity to answer phones for specific periods of time. You’re probably saying you didn’t sign up for this, but in reality this is how you will get your first customers. People see for sale signs with your company name, and they call in for information. This is your chance to try to schedule an appointment with them and sell them the home.

With a little experience you might be lucky to get your own listings, meaning you are being hired by sellers to put their home on the market. Of course, you are also responsible for spending your own money to advertise the house, and you need to spend money on gas driving customers around to see all your houses for sale.…

Selon une étude parue dans le numéro de février de Plastic et Reconstructive Surgery®, le journal médical officiel de l’American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS), les patients qui ont subi un lifting du visage déclarent avoir en moyenne 12 ans de moins après l’opération.

Après une période de récupération “significative”, la grande majorité des patients subissant une chirurgie du lifting paris facial sont satisfaits de leurs résultats, selon l’étude du Dr. Eric Swanson, chirurgien plasticien en cabinet privé à Leawood, au Kansas. “Ces résultats vont dans le sens de la recommandation d’un rajeunissement du visage chirurgical aux patients qui souhaitent paraître plus jeunes”, écrit le Dr Swanson.

FaceLift améliore l’apparence et la qualité de vie de la plupart des patients

Le Dr Swanson a réalisé une analyse détaillée des résultats chez 122 patients ayant eu un lifting entre 2002 et 2007. Les patients étaient 82 femmes et 11 hommes, âgés en moyenne de 57 ans. Les patients ont été interrogés en moyenne sept mois après leur opération. La plupart des patients ont subi d’autres interventions esthétiques en plastique, telles que soulèvement du front et / ou chirurgie des paupières, en même temps que leur lifting.

Les patients étaient très satisfaits de leurs résultats. La “réduction subjective moyenne de l’âge apparent” était de 11,9 ans, avec une fourchette de 0 à 27 ans et demi. Quatre-vingt-dix-sept pour cent des patients ont déclaré que les résultats répondaient à leurs attentes. Quarante pour cent ont évalué les résultats encore mieux que prévu.

Près de 90% des patients ont déclaré avoir reçu des réactions positives d’autres personnes au sujet de leur nouvelle apparence, tandis que seulement 7% ont signalé des réactions négatives. Plus de 80% des patients ont signalé une amélioration de leur estime de soi et 70%, une amélioration de leur qualité de vie.

Un peu plus du tiers des patients ont signalé un type de complication, bien qu’il s’agisse principalement de problèmes temporaires (par exemple, yeux secs). Seulement deux pour cent étaient mécontents de leurs cicatrices.…
