Ring Edge acts as a great way to store your camera footage somewhere other than Ring's cloud storage systems. ![]() It's a harmonious design that feels incredibly well thought out and is even better executed. Ring Edge lets Ring users finally store recorded video on local microSD cards, which conveniently slide right into the back of the Ring Alarm Pro base station. Having your Ring cameras on that local network is important when you want to use Ring Edge, which might just be the single best new feature for Ring Alarm Pro. If you just want chimes removed for a single sensor and left on for the others, that is an easy solution that only takes a few taps in the app. Ring has made several improvements to its system since the last time we reviewed it, including the ability to make a chime for when doors and windows are open and closed. You'll even see a handy status in the app to let you know what all is included in your system and whether it's active.Īll of the sensors are well designed and thought-out, with reasonable sizes for the door/window sensors and an excellent adhesive design for the motion sensor to be mounted easily in the corner of a room or flat against a wall. You'll give it a name, tell the Ring app what room it's being stored in, and the rest is as simple as plugging the keypad in or pulling the plastic tab out of a sensor to activate it.Īll of the sensors are already paired to the base station from the factory and will automatically link the moment they're active. With the Ring app open, all you'll need to do is add a new Ring Alarm from the devices section. Setup is as easy as plugging it in and signing into the Ring app. If anything, finding a place to put your Ring Alarm base station is a bigger ordeal than anything you'll run across in the setup process - especially if you pick up one of the additional battery backup base stations called Ring Power Packs. Ring's packaging is always a great experience, no matter what product you buy, and the setup process couldn't be more effortless.

What do you need to become a top-rated seller on eBay? ![]() ![]() Will Slack continue to operate independently? As part of a larger product, it could give Slack more flexibility on the pricing side,” Castanon said. They have a reputation for being an expensive enterprise software service compared to Microsoft, which bundles everything and basically offers things for free. “There is more of a possibility that it could help Slack with pricing. Ownership by Salesforce could even lead to more competitive pricing for Slack, said Raul Castanon, a senior analyst at 451 Research / S&P Global Market Intelligence. “I think that the low end is not likely to be significantly impacted, in the short to medium term at least,” said Ashenden. “It's not in their interest to take away the free option, because that is what has driven the growth of Slack over the last six years,” said Ashenden.Ī key part of Slack’s success has been its ability to create bottom-up, viral adoption within organizations, which offers a different route to adoption than Salesforce’s typical direct sales model. “Their resources could be tied up for some time integrating products, and with the workplace changing so much, it will be a good time to explore other collaboration products.” How will the acquisition affect Slack pricing?ĭetails of Salesforce’s plans for Slack’s pricing and product tiers have yet to emerge, though it’s unlikely that Salesforce would want to make major changes to the free product in the foreseeable future. In the long term, however, we’ll examine our needs relative to Slack’s direction,” said Chou. “There may be some things that people wanted that they’re not going to get immediately as a result of this.”Īnother Slack customer, Sean Chou, founder and CEO of digital process automation company Catalytic, doesn’t expect drastic changes in product strategy in the short term but has concerns that the focus on integrating the applications could be a distraction in terms of feature development. “Over the next 12 months, a lot of what would have been in the road map will probably have to be put aside to allow for the integration with Salesforce platform,” said Ashenden. One implication, however, is that features and functions currently on Slack’s development road map could be put on the back burner as efforts are aimed at linking into the Salesforce portfolio. That saves time, saves effort, and it’s easier to manage,” she said. “It will just make life easier for them if they don’t have to do all of those integrations and enable the capabilities themselves. As well as integration with sales or marketing software, this could mean that Salesforce’s productivity tool Quip could be more tightly integrated with Slack, offering access to word processing and spreadsheet documents, for instance.įor existing users of both apps, integration between all of the Salesforce products and Slack will be extremely valuable, said Ashenden. There are many intriguing possibilities for connecting Slack with Salesforce’s various applications. “From an end user’s perspective, it might be slightly different because the road map will certainly change as a result.” “From a buyer's perspective it will be seen as a positive, because it actually reduces the number of vendors that they have to manage,” said Angela Ashenden, a principal analyst at CCS Insight. There’s plenty of crossover here: Benioff stated in Salesforce’s Q3 earnings call that 90% of Slack’s customers are already using Salesforce tools in their organization too. ![]() ![]() There are clear benefits for organizations that are already using both Slack and Salesforce. (Asked for comment, Slack officials declined to comment except to cite last week's statements.) As the new interface for Salesforce Customer 360, Slack will transform how people communicate, collaborate and take action on customer information across Salesforce as well as information from all of their other business apps and systems to be more productive, make smarter, faster decisions and create connected customer experiences.” The statement announcing the acquisition put it this way: “Slack will be deeply integrated into every Salesforce Cloud. Initial comments from Salesforce indicate that Slack will become the new interface for Customer 360, the data platform that connects Salesforce’s various apps spanning sales, marketing, analytics, workflow integration and more. While some changes are inevitable, it’s unclear precisely what impact the acquisition will have on Slack’s road map at this stage. What does the deal mean for Slack’s product road map? A great transitional color, it’s perfect for an open floor plan.” “A light gray with warm undertones, this classic shade creates a unifying look that calms and restores. We could probably go on and on about some of the other favorites that we’ve been using, here are just a few more that are goodies: White was the color this year, and this was definitely one of our favorite whites to use. We used this color for our master bathroom and we’ve used it in a lot of our clients’ homes as well. This is a goodie and it really is the perfect white! We ended up using this Restoration Hardware paint color in our basement and since our basement isn’t very big, we didn’t want to use the darker Gravel down there, or it would have felt like a lot smaller space. It really works well either brown or grey decor. It’s the perfect color if you’re a brown fan and wants to get into the grey tones, but don’t want to go too far. We’ve used this color a lot for our client’s homes and they’ve loved it. We don’t have a ton of wall space in our kitchen area, so the paint added the perfect amount of color. It’s a nice subtle color that really made our picture frames pop. We used this color in our kitchen area and it was the perfect color to compliment our white cabinetry, dark brown hardwood floors, and black and white, matted decor. Our third favorite is Atmosphere Blue, one of the prettiest Restoration Hardware paint colors. We tried a handful of different blues that were way too bright before we found the perfect bold statement.ģ. If you follow our blog, painting this room was a nightmare before we came across this color. We used this color for our formal dining room. Second up is Deep Royal by Benjamin Moore, which is another of our favorites. There are so many undertones that can be pulled through and you never want the grey to look too purple or blue, which is easy to do. Picking the perfect grey or paint color for any project is hard to do. And of course, a rich dark grey can work well to make a statement. Lighter shades of grey are good alternatives to white if you are looking for another neutral for your home. Grey compliments well with all neutrals, along with our favorite frequently used color schemes, like blues and greens. We’ve used grey color schemes in both of our homes, as well as our clients’ homes since we started remodeling. Grey is a classic, elegant color for any space. Restoration Hardware paint colors are so beautiful and can easily be matched in whatever paint brand you like best. Gravel is a part of the Flint Paint Color Collection by Restoration Hardware and is one of our favorite go-to’s. ![]() We’ve used this color for all the interior walls in two of our renovation homes. It’s deep and rich and makes a bold statement. Our number one is gravel, which is hands down our favorite. One of the things we love about paint colors is that you can get Restoration Hardware paint colors matched to Benjamin Moore and vice versa. Now that you know what products you first need to use before you start any painting project, let’s chat about our favorite colors within our home including Restoration Hardware paint colors and Benjamin Moore paint colors. ![]() The tray has a deep well that can hold a full gallon of paint or stain, built-in magnetic brush holder and roller grid, as well as ergonomic handles that make for convenient easy, spill-free transporting.

There were no problems during the burn, after which Husband maneuvered Columbia into a right-side-up, forward-facing position, with the Orbiter’s nose pitched up.Įntry Interface, arbitrarily defined as the point at which the Orbiter enters the discernible atmosphere at 400,000 feet, occurred at 8:44:09 a.m. During the de-orbit burn, the crew felt about 10 percent of the effects of gravity. The de-orbit maneuver was performed on the 255th orbit, and the 2-minute, 38-second burn slowed the Orbiter from 17,500 mph to begin its re-entry into the atmosphere. using Columbia’s two Orbital Maneuvering System engines. Shortly after 8:00 a.m., the Mission Control Center Entry Flight Director polled the Mission Control room for a GO/NO-GO decision for the de-orbit burn, and at 8:10 a.m., the Capsule Communicator notified the crew they were GO for de-orbit burn.Īs the Orbiter flew upside down and tail-first over the Indian Ocean at an altitude of 175 statute miles, Commander Husband and Pilot McCool executed the de-orbit burn at 8:15:30 a.m. At the time of the de-orbit decision, about 20 minutes before the initiation of the de-orbit burn, all weather observations and forecasts were within guidelines set by the flight rules, and all systems were normal. Weather forecasters, with the help of pilots in the Shuttle Training Aircraft, evaluated landing site weather conditions at the Kennedy Space Center. The team worked through the de-orbit preparation checklist and re-entry checklist procedures. In particular, the team indicated no concerns about the debris impact to the left wing during ascent, and treated the re-entry like any other. The Flight Control Team was not working any issues or problems related to the planned de-orbit and re-entry of Columbia. EST on February 1, 2003, the Entry Flight Control Team began duty in the Mission Control Center. According to the CAIB report, the Mission Management Team declared the debris strike a "turnaround" issue and did not pursue a request for imagery ( ).Īt 2:30 a.m. Soon after, there were three separate requests for in-orbit imaging to more precisely determine damage. ![]() The following day, higher-resolution film that had been processed overnight revealed that a piece of insulation foam fell from an external fuel tank 81.9 seconds after launch and appeared to strike the shuttle's left wing near RCC panels 5 through 9. ![]() Video taken during lift-off was routinely reviewed two hours after the launch, which revealed nothing unusual. A well-publicized launch delay due to cracks in the shuttle's propellant system occurred one month before a 19 July, 2002 launch date, but the CAIB determined that this delay had nothing to do with the catastrophic failure 6 months later. STS-107 had been delayed 13 times over the course of two years (despite its designation as the 107th mission, it was actually the 113th mission) from its original launch date of 11 January 2001 to its actual launch date of 16 January, 2003.

We verify the potency and purity of each batch with third-party laboratory testing available on each product page. That is why we make sure that our hemp is grown in the highest quality soil and that it always remains free of inorganic additives, chemicals, heavy metals, or pesticides. Because hemp is a “cleaning” crop, it absorbs and eventually passes the substances found in its soil to you. ![]() Our hemp is grown on a biodynamic farm, meaning the soil that it’s grown in is not only organic but properly replenished with essential nutrients and minerals using biodynamic farming practices. Organically Grown Biodynamic Hemp Flowers Research suggests that these varied hemp compounds work together in what scientists have called “the entourage effect” to potentiate each other’s beneficial effects like those related to hormonal balance or encouraging the growth of new brain and bone cells. These compounds are highly regarded for their unique therapeutic actions as antioxidants, anxiolytics, anti-inflammatories, mood enhancers, and more. In addition to its positive effects on sleep, Ned’s full spectrum hemp oil is rich in a whole array of powerful bioactive compounds including cannabinoids, terpenes, flavonoids and chlorophyll. To help you achieve maximum tranquility with steady, and consistent, and deeper sleep, we’ve enhanced the sleep blend with organic and wildcrafted natural sleep aids like Oatstraw, Nettles, Valerian, Lemon Balm, Passionflower, Skullcap, Chamomile, Licorice, and Calendula. Between the difficulty we experience when falling asleep after a late night on the computer and the lagging effects of that afternoon cup of coffee on our restorative deep sleep, our bodies benefit from the soothing powers of hemp oil and traditional medicinals. Our biologies and perhaps more than that, the demands of the modern world, often disrupt our sleep cycles. Living Better Starts With Sleeping Betterĥ0 million Americans are reported to suffer from some form of sleeping disorder. However, whereas CBD causes wakefulness in lower doses, and sedation in higher doses, CBN has the opposite effect: eliciting sedation in lower doses and wakefulness in higher doses.Ī 1mL dose of Ned’s Sleep Blend tinctures delivers 25mg CBD and 2.5mg CBN, plus calming botanicals traditionally used to promote better sleep. How much CBD & CBN do you need for sleep?īoth CBD and CBN have been shown to be biphasic, meaning that they exert different effects in low doses versus high doses. CBN can also be used to help alleviate pain, encourage bone cell growth and reduce stress while offering antibacterial, anti-convulsive, and anti-inflammatory properties. Together with CBD, CBN provides functional support for decreasing the amount of time it takes to fall asleep, enhancing deep sleep, and lowering the number of nighttime awakenings. Once thought of as a throwaway by-product, CBN oil has recently come to the forefront as potentially the most potent sedative of the over 100 naturally occurring cannabinoids found in hemp. Researchers have established a clear link between hemp and sleep, and hemp sleep research studies suggest that cannabinoids such as CBD and CBN play a role in promoting enhanced sleep via multiple mechanisms.
