This is because the back plate of each device is made from recycled plastic, making its exterior only 15% new stuff. Second, the “E” in the name indicates Eco, as far as I can tell. ![]() The color-adjustable lighting is pretty much the same as far as I could tell. You may not notice unless you put them side by side, but if you did (like me) you’d agree it’s a real if not transformative upgrade. If you’re looking for big changes, look elsewhere: The Clara 2E is a lot like the Clara of old but with a few notable updates.įirst, there’s an improved screen - it isn’t night and day, but the improvements over the last few years are noticeable, with darker and sharper text and lighter backgrounds (or the inverse in dark mode). That recommendation has wavered as I’ve tested the compact Poke 3 and ergonomic Libra 2, but the new version of the Clara puts it back in the running for easiest to endorse. For years when someone asked me what e-reader to buy, I’d say unless they care about Amazon stuff, the Kobo Clara HD.

![]() Having since undergone open-heart surgery, Schaffer says he's conscientious about lowering his blood pressure - checking it regularly at home and diligently keeping up with the new medications his doctor has prescribed. When the paramedics arrived, they hooked him up to an EKG machine and said, “Hey, Bill, you're having a heart attack. “I wanted to go outside to wait for the EMT so they didn't have to come up the stairs, but I was in so much pain I had to lay on the floor.” Schaffer's cousin helped him down the stairs. But still he didn't want to appear ill to his colleagues who might respond. “My eating patterns were horrible."Īfter Schaffer realized what was happening that summer night, he asked his wife to dial 911. He barely had time to eat, so lunch meant something quick and unhealthy – a hamburger or chicken nuggets. “I had an extraordinarily stressful job,” Schaffer says. In his town, a western suburb of New York, he'd responded to terror attacks, mass shootings, and the Sandy, Floyd and Irene hurricanes. As director of the EMT department, he was on call all day every day, often under some horrific circumstances. “I was doing what I was supposed to be doing.”īut Schaffer's numbers didn't tell the whole story. Schaffer was religious about his every-six-month checkup with his cardiologist, and taking his meds. Still, neither he nor his doctor were alarmed. "That's when I put the game together and knew I was having a heart attack.”Įven on blood pressure medication, Schaffer had high blood pressure - not “horrible” like he had seen in some of the people whose lives he saved (or didn't), but higher than normal. “It traveled to my shoulder and arms, and radiated to my jaw. No longer did his heart feel like it was being squeezed - now it was being crushed. “The pain was starting to build,” he says. Still, he wasn't concerned, and retired to the couch for a chat with his cousin. Then, during the meal he felt some indigestion. “I started feeling a little funny prior to eating,” Schaffer recalls - sweaty without sweating, feverish without a fever. They spent the day together, and then had dinner. And every day the pain in his back intensified whenever he climbed the stairs. But when he started experiencing the same sensations, he told his wife he needed to make an appointment to see the chiropractor. He knew the symptoms, what they looked like, what his patients told him they felt like. He witnessed people who had heart attacks nearly every day. The feeling that two fingers were squeezing the life out of his heart with every beat. The stabbing pain in the center of his back whenever he walked up or down stairs. Here, five heart attack survivors share their very different experiences - and what they wish they'd realized sooner.īill Schaffer realizes he should have known better. Sometimes it's just a little discomfort, or an ache.”įor the simplest takeaway, Wood says, think of any symptoms you feel this way: “If you have to google ‘chest pain’ or ‘chest discomfort,’ then probably you first need to call 911.” “The one uniform thing people say is the symptom that they had was very different from what they had felt previously. “The way to know is if you experience something you haven't felt before.” For those who've had heart problems previously, the advice often still applies. “Basically if you feel something in your back, chest, jaw or tooth that you haven't felt before, get it checked out,” she says. Wood admits that the medical literature describing telltale symptoms can contradict itself, and says the combination of misinformation and downright denial complicates matters. “So when people don't have that classic symptom that they've seen or heard about, they think, ‘Well, this must be something else.'" “People have this idea of the Hollywood heart attack, which is a man squeezing his chest, the feeling of the balloon about to burst,” says clinical cardiologist Malissa Wood, assistant professor of medicine at Harvard Medical School. Thing is, more than half of the people who have a heart attack don't recognize its symptoms.

Investing in protection can extend luminaire lifetime, improve public services, and greatly reduce overall operating and infrastructure costs Building-in protection What are transient or surge over-voltages? Located where continuity of service is essential, it is crucial that these installations are protected against lightning and over-voltages. Public lighting installations are exposed to the environment. It also proposes solutions to maximize protection performance and continuity of service. This document explains the causes of lightning over- voltages and how they affect lighting installations. The vulnerability of electronic lighting systems to over-voltages is widely recognized in technical literature, and different international regulations and standards specify the need for lighting protection. Beyond material damage to the luminaires, voltage surges caused by lightning, for example, can trigger or break protective devices in the circuit boards of lighting distribution panels. ![]() They wear out LED drivers and distribution panels prematurely and increase service interruptions to LED lighting.

Again: we’re in an era where more and more of us work longer hours, drink more coffee, and sleep less. A pod where human beings can trade in their need for sleep, in order to become efficient. Then there’s the Morpheus technology at the heart of the story. Right now, wars are being fought with drones, and Gatiss explores a logical extension of that. Take the cloned “grunt”, genetically engineered to be the brute force in battle. Gatiss fuses in Japanese culture into his 38th century story, and presents us with a disparate bunch of people, caught in the middle of a monster-on-a-spaceship story. There, he meets a rescue mission, and we explore just what’s happened from that point on. The Doctor and Clara thus arrive on the space station Le Verrier, 24 hours after it happened to fall silent. It requires a minute or two of explanation, and then we’re down to business. We’re only allowed to view what’s happening either from the POVs of characters who are alive, or via flashbacks to Rassmussen’s (that’s Reece Shearsmith) video diary. Gatiss then structured, with some discipline, Doctor Who‘s first found-footage episode, wrapping the camera points of view into the plot of the episode. If you were looking for clues that this would be the latest Doctor Who episode to take a left turn, there they were. Guest star Reece Shearsmith kicks things off, talking to the camera, with the credits being replaced by swift computer text. It’s immediately different, after all, as Gatiss gets the tone of what was to follow over quickly and effectively. Taking it away from the superb Zygon two-parter that it followed, Sleep No More started intriguingly. “Even I sleep” “When?” “Well, when you’re not looking” Unfortunately, I found it a bit of a muddle. But as a consequence, writer Mark Gatiss gives himself a lot of work to do, to set up, explore and pay the episode off. It’s a coincidence that it’s first standalone story in a series run that’s been compromised of two-parters thus far. But Sleep No More never really took off for me. I think this series and last of Doctor Who have been the best in years, and I was hardly writing letters of complaint to the BBC about the Matt Smith era before that. It’s easy, after all, to jump on a hate bandwagon. No matter which version of Alice In Wonderland you choose to draw inspiration from, the possibilities for Halloween just keep arising whether you opt for a human being or not!
