Browsers, as well as Node.js, have limitations on concurrent HTTP connections. It is essential to understand these limitations because we can run into undesired situations whereby an application would function incorrectly. In this article, we will review everything that you, as a developer, need to be familiar with regarding concurrent HTTP connections.
Browsers adhere to protocols - and the HTTP 1.1 protocol states that a single client (a user client) should not maintain more than two concurrent connections. Now, some older browsers do enforce this, however, generally speaking, newer browsers - often referred to as "modern" browsers - allow a more generous limit. Here's a more precise list:
- IE 7: 2 connections
- IE 8 & 9: 6 connections
- IE 10: 8 connections
- IE 11: 13 connections
- Firefox, Chrome (Mobile and Desktop), Safari (Mobile and Desktop), Opera: 6 connections
For the rest of this article remember the number 6 - this will play a crucial part when we go through our example.
If you have worked with, learned or just read about Node.js before, you know that it is a single-threaded, non-blocking framework. This means that it allows a significant number of concurrent connections - all of this is made available by the JavaScript event loop.
The actual limit of connections in Node.js is determined by the available resources on the machine running the code and by the operating system settings as well.
Back in the early days of Node.js (think v0.10 and earlier), there was an imposed limit of 5 simultaneous connections to/from a single host. What does this mean? Under the hood when you are using the Node.js built-in HTTP module or any other module that uses the HTTP module like Express.js or Restify, you are in fact using a connection pool and HTTP
keep-alive. This is great for performance improvement - think about the cycle like the following: an HTTP request is processed, this opens a TCP connection, for a new request an existing TCP connection can be used. (Without the keep-alive the process would be less performant by having to create a TCP connection, serve a response close the TCP connection and start this again for the next request)
In version higher than 0.10 the maxSockets value has been changed to
keep-aliveis sent by the browser and we can easily see this if we log the
requestobject in Node.js in the appropriate location. It should yield something similar to this (example taken from a Restify server):
headers: { host: 'localhost:3000', 'content-type': 'text/plain;charset=UTF-8', origin: 'http://127.0.0.1:8080', 'accept-encoding': 'gzip, deflate', connection: 'keep-alive',
Let's take a look at a very straightforward example. Let's assume that we have some sort of a frontend where we are sending data to a backend (this is usually how modern applications work, a frontend framework making requests to a Backend API). For the our example, the data that we are sending is less important - it's equally applicable to a bulk file upload or anything else.
Trivia: I have in fact came across this issue while working on an application that did a bulk upload of images and sent it to a backend API for further processing.
Let's create a simple Restify API server:
const restify = require('restify');
const corsMiddleware = require('restify-cors-middleware');
const port = 3000;
const server = restify.createServer();
const bunyan = require('bunyan');
const cors = corsMiddleware({
origins: ['*'],
server.post('/api', (req, res) => {
const payload = req.body;
console.log(`Processing: ${payload}`);
server.listen(port, () => console.info(`Server is up on ${port}.`));
This is very straightforward. Astute readers would already have noticed a somewhat crucial mistake in the code above but don't worry; it is made deliberately. So this API receives data sent via an
HTTP POST request and displays a log message stating that it is processing whatever was sent as part of the request. (Again, the processing could be whatever we wanted, but for this discussion, it's just a simple console statement.)
Let's also create a simple frontend. Let's create a very simple
index.html and add the following content in between
<script> tags:
const array = Array.from(Array(10).keys());
array.forEach(arrayItem => {
fetch('http://localhost:3000/api', {
method: 'POST',
mode: 'cors',
body: JSON.stringify(`hello${arrayItem}`)
.then(response => console.log(response.json()))
.catch(error => console.error(`Fetch Error: `, error));
Here, the
Fetch API is used to iterate through 9 items (mimicking an upload of 9 files for example) and sending 9
HTTP POST requests to the Restify API discussed earlier.
Start up the API, also load the index.html via an HTTP server and let's see the results.
Here are two easy ways of firing up an HTTP server in an easy way: either use
python -m SimpleHTTPServer 8000(v2) or
python -m http.server 8080(v3). Or do a global
npminstall of
http-serverand then just do
http-serverfrom the folder where you have the
It's fascinating what we see. Even though we have made 9
HTTP POST requests only six have arrived to the Restify API since we see 6 log statements.
However, if you wait about 2 minutes, additional log statements will appear.
So what is going on here?
Remember what we said before - the browser (in this case Safari) is capable of making six requests to the same host (in this case the connection is between our browser and the API running on port 3000 on localhost).
The connection is kept alive because we are not returning anything from the Node.js API. This was the mistake that I have deliberately made to make a point. So the browser sends six requests, and Node.js receives these but it never sends any information back rendering the remaining requests to be blocked.
So why are the other log statements visible later? The answer is simple: there's also a timeout, which is by default 2 minutes. After 2 minutes the request is cleared, so new requests are processed.
Let's update our code with these values:
server.server.maxConnections = 20;
function getConnections() {
server.server.getConnections((error, count) => console.log(count));
// add getConnections() in the API call:
server.post('/api', (req, res) => {
// ...
server.server.maxConnections = 20; is there just to make a point that no matter how big this number is it's not going to change the outcome because we are still not returning anything (remember it is set to be
Inifity anyway):
However, add the following setting to change the behaviour:
The result is going to be a lot different. Since we are overwriting the timeout of the server, we only wait 500 ms and get rid of a pending request, allowing new requests to come in.
Please note that this is not a real solution to this problem, it is just for demonstration purposes.
Solving the problem
The right way to solve this problem is of course to return a response from the API:
server.post('/api', (req, res) => {
const payload = req.body;
console.log(`Processing: ${payload}`);
return res.json(`Done processing: ${payload}`);
Now all data is going to be processed just fine:
All uploads are now processed just fine.
res.json() under the hood uses
res.send() which in turn also uses
res.end() to send a response and to end it. This is true for both Restify and Express.js as well.
What is the moral of the story? Always close HTTP connections - no matter how, but close them - if you're making API calls consult the API documentation as well to close any active HTTP connection.

Dayton O. Nov. 17th, 1863 Dear Husband, Here are the over socks and Sella's little cushion. The socks cannot be made pretty, but they are warm, and I think both heart and feet will glow whenever they are worn; loving hands have made them. Yours of the 11th just came last night. The relics were interesting to us all, as was your account of things generally; I hope however the *sutters* will treat you better than old Uncle Sam does. It seems to me that our good President would try to have hard tack provided that was less populous, if he could see a little of that which is served out to you. We were out to dine at *Jere's* today and I could not help thinking of your hard fare in contrast with the substantial viands spread before us. We must try to make up for it when you come to see us. Cannot you sniff the odors from afar and feel refreshed; as do the poor at the kitchen windows of the rich? Your trunk turned up today, and it now appears that it has been here several weeks, but they say it was not directed to Father, whereas Mr *McCardy* says he did so direct it. Now you may send me the key. The children are all in bed excepting Sella, Oh! dear, Mary is waking! Betty is trying to get her to sleep again She cryed all last evening, or my package would have gone this morning. I am afraid she is going to cut her teeth early, which I consider a misfortune She is still improving however, and notices every thing that comes in her way Her Grandfather is always pleased and amused with the bashful way she laughingly shrugs her shoulders and drops her head whenever he speaks to her. By the time you come, you may expect some pleasure with her, unless she is afraid of your whiskers and mustache. I don't believe she will allow much kissing from you. Mayhap she will change her mind however about that as some people have done before her! Sella has just said her prayers, kissed me (for she has washed her teeth) and gone to bed. She has a funny habit of yawning just at the closing line; and it seems impossible to break her of it. What will become of me? I cannot get time to read anything more than the news of the day. It is nurse, cut out and sew all the time, with an occasional walk; the nursing being all that is thoroughly done. I got a fit of discouragement on me last night in consequence and felt that I was of no use to anyone I read the flattering account of Miss *Chase* and her wedding, and it seemed to me that she could keep her husband up socially, so much better than I could that I fear I envied her somewhat To be sure his money will enable her to dispense with the drudgery of life and leave her more time for other things; still I don't believe my tastes or talents would be sufficient to enable me to act the graceful pleasing hostess, if I had the means I cannot throw off care. Enough of this however, I need one of your lectures, and will say thank you for one of them. This paper is partly to blame for this bad penmanship, as it will blot; hasty writing however must share the blame I must now close and do up the package, almost wishing I could go with it. - Much love and many kisses #are sent with it from a loving wife.

Thyroid and fatigue: Why you feel tired
It's possible that you always feel tired, and all the blame goes to a long and tiring day. Feeling tired, overly exhausted and lethargic even though you did not do something too physically demanding is something we feel a lot in our busy lives.
And we probably end up attributing it to long travel times between work and home, constantly worrying about deadlines and the stress in our everyday life. If you are feeling the same, you are definitely not alone.
Did you know that if you're always feeling tired, even if you had a good night's sleep and rest, it could be due to a thyroid disorder? And did you know that, with the right diagnosis, your doctor can actually help you get better and manage your thyroid disorder and your energy levels better too?
Does thyroid make you feel tired?
The thyroid gland produces a host of hormones that are responsible for various functions in your body. If this gland does not work the way it is supposed to, your entire system can go out of balance.
In fact, you may also notice a change in the levels of fatigue that you notice through the day.
Fluctuating levels of feeling tired
If you have a thyroid disorder, it can affect the quality of your sleep. You may have trouble feeling asleep, or you may frequently wake up and not be able to sleep properly through the night. This can leave you feeling really tired in the day, and sometimes, can also cause aches and pains in your muscles and joints.
The levels of fatigue can also vary from person to person. You may sometimes work very hard to complete a deadline, even when you are feeling really tired, but then reach your burning point and not be able to do anything more for the next day or two. In some cases, you may not be able to function at all on days when you are feeling especially tired.
Taking care of thyroid fatigue
If you too feel tired a lot, no matter what the reasons you may think, make sure to speak to your doctor. Your doctor will most likely ask you to get a few thyroid blood tests done, which can help you both reach the right diagnosis.
Once your doctor knows the reason behind your fatigue, if it is a thyroid condition, they will guide you about medications and the next treatment steps. If it is not, your doctor will still check the cause and guide you accordingly.

Charities Report Only Slightly Diminished Returns in 2008News March 29th, 2009
While the rest of the world has been struggling to near death levels in an economic sense, charities seem to be actually doing moderately well. Though last year they suffered a letdown over 2007 and previous levels, places like Goodwill Industries faired better than most for-profit businesses in the market. That is a good thing, too, as the work for charities amps up when economic times are not as good. So what was the reason for their continued relative success? In this case, it was a focus on more lucrative vehicle donation.
Instead of targeting small donors who could give a little, the charities set their sights on large donors who could afford to give a lot. People chose to donate a car at a high rate, something that may have surprised many analysts who looked at the market. The problem, of course, is that people typically shy away from auto donation and all forms of donation when times get tough. Last year the charities did something a little bit different, though. Instead of simply asking for handouts, they went out and showed individuals how donating a car could actually help them financially.
If you donate your car to charity, you can save a ton of money on your tax return. This has been especially good for people who are self employed, as those savings are essential to their survival. What the organizations noticed was that people had a bunch of cars around their home that they had no use for. They reported that the donations for auto parts and scrap metal were higher than usual, giving them more stuff to try to sell on the open market.
Though you might not have expected it, charitable giving has remained high, and much of the credit for that has to go to those people doing the marketing for the organizations.

Ginger Peanut, Bampton, Devon
The Ginger Peanut became the new kid on the block in Bampton in January 2018 and is already attracting the kind of publicity it deserves; an award winning chef, relaxed dining, top notch service from staff who really know their stuff – it all helps.
The décor is on-trend ambient; well chosen colours that work really well with the stylish furnishings and quirky accessories. You feel at home and that's another thing that's good about it; you feel comfortable, the wine is good, you know you're going to get delectable food; it's a Happy Place.
The food? Out of this world. Truly. A work of art created from local produce with gusto and passion. Dingley Dell pan-fried Pork Tenderloin & BBQ Shoulder of Pork, Carrot & Cumin Puree, wilted baby Spinach, Colcannon; Monkfish Tail, Gnocchi Potato, Wild Mushrooms, Garlic, Pancetta, White Wine & Cream; Wild Garlic & Butternut Squash Arancini, medley of Mediterranean Vegetables, Tomato Dressing. There are steaks, and a Sunday lunch menu of roast beef, roast turkey or fish pie for mains; nice to have a choice. Their aim is simple: to become the best restaurant in Devon, and looking at the reviews, they might well get there.
Unusual for this neck of the woods, Ginger Peanut has two rooms that can be closed off for private dining; a serious option if you're a group of 6-20. Book one of them for lunch, tea, dinner, or canapes and drinks, even when the restaurant and bar are closed.
The bar serves, tea, coffee, cakes and drinks Wednesday to Saturday 10.00am-late and Sunday 12.00-6.00pm. The restaurant is open Wednesday to Saturday 12.00-2.30pm and 6.00pm-9.30pm, and Sundays 12.00-4.00pm

My brain has been all over the place this past week, well probably this whole month as I have been intentional about acknowledging different aspects of my life, my choices, the people in my life, those who have left, etc. This past week has been interesting because I have had to acknowledge the ways I still pastor and minister to people and how I have needed to define those terms for myself and acknowledge that they mean to me. I had to acknowledge those places where for me they were still artificially attached to my being attached to a formal congregation, which met in a formal building, and had formal worship services. It was reminders from my wife and friends who helped me in the process of detaching from the meanings others had and still do ascribe to those words and to redefine them for myself.
I have had to acknowledge how when people hear I am a reverend that they fill their minds with assumptions about who I am, what I believe, and my life in general. While I have no control over how others perceive me, I do have control over how I perceive myself and the image and story I create for myself and for others to observe.

Scientists at Ghent University have sighted young cod swimming around the foundation of a wind turbine in the Belgium part of the North Sea. The discovery could indicate that cod numbers might benefit from wind farms in the sea.
Atlantic cod stocks were severely overfished in the 1970s and '80s, leading to their abrupt collapse in 1992. Greenpeace added the Atlantic cod to its seafood red list in 2010. This is a list of fish that are commonly sold in supermarkets around the world, and which have a very high risk of being sourced from unsustainable fisheries. Despite mandatory catch quotas the number of cods still remain low. Some scientists plead for a ban on fishing cod.
Ghent scientists have been monitoring the impact of the wind farm on fish stocks since 2008. The cod and the pout (a small fish belonging to the cod family) were being sighted shortly after the installation of the wind turbines. After one year already 30,000 pouts per wind turbine had been sighted on the Thorntonbank wind farm. Recently other species like lemon sole, red mullet and plaice were also encoutered. The young cod now discovered is usually hard to find in this part of the North Sea. This could be an indication that the environment of the wind turbines, which is a no- fishing zone, can serve as a cod nusery.
Sponges, polyps and mussels that all provide food for the fish, grow in abundance on the foundations of the wind turbines. Young fish can grow up there in a sheltered environment and away from their natural predators. The findings are good news for those concerned with the depletion of North Sea fish stocks. Although according to scientists full recovery of cod stocks can not be expected in the short term.

Murphy Goode Chardonnay Sonoma County 2006
Add the dessert flavors of this Chardonnay to dinner by pairing this rich, creamy wine with dishes such as smoked chicken with fettuccine alfredo or prosciutto-wrapped scallops. We're hungry just thinking about it. Grapes from Sonoma County's Alexander Valley are the heart and soul of this bright Chardonnay with a rich and creamy texture. In 2006, we had a long, cool growing season which led to a late, drawn out harvest. Murphy Goode isn't complaining though—longer hang time intensified the flavor and development of the grapes. The wine's 23% stainless steel fermentation helps retain its fruit esters for flavors of baked apple, pear and peach, while its 77% oak fermentation lends characteristic flavors such as vanilla and nutmeg. The wine also underwent 12% malolactic fermentation to add texture and a broader mouthfeel. This is a bright and approachable wine that tastes like apple pie in a glass that's better than Mom's!

If you are looking for the next great team members for your marketing operations team, what qualities do you look for? And where do you go to find the right people?
These are not trivial questions. It takes a unique skill set to succeed in marketing operations, and demand exceeds the supply of qualified candidates in many markets. Sometimes it takes a little ingenuity to find the right candidate for your team. After all, it's not as if you can recruit from university programs that train people in the marketing operations function – this kind of program simply doesn't exist.
I recently attended a gathering of marketing operations professionals, the annual MOCCA Executive Forum in San Francisco, where this topic was part of a lively panel discussion of the state of the marketing operations function.
Let's start with attributes of the ideal marketing operations hire. Hiring managers frequently look for certain traits above and beyond the skills and experience listed on a resume. For marketing operations hires, here are some of the desired candidate attributes:
Where do you go to find candidates with these qualities? Some interesting (and creative) suggestions were tossed out:
If you're struggling to find your next great marketing operations hire, don't despair. The person with the right attributes and skills is out there – maybe just not in the place you expected him or her to be.

A Brief History of Clan Leslie
....as told by Alexander Leslie Klieforth,
USA Commissioner (1978-98) and Clan Historian.
All Leslies are descended from the same Scottish Clan and Great Family, one of the very oldest. Tradition says it began in 1069 A.D. when the Saxon claimant to the throne of England was defeated by William the Conqueror and fled to Scotland. Edward the Atheling, as he was called, arrived there with his mother, a Hungarian Princess, and his two sisters. They were cordially received by the king, Malcolm III Canmore. A year later the king married Margaret, one of the sisters, who became a great queen of Scotland and a saint of the Christian Church. Her Chamberlain, Bartholomew, a Hungarian nobleman, had much impressed King Malcolm who made him Commander of Edinburgh Castle. Bartholomew married Beatrix, the King's sister in 1070 and thus the family and Clan of Leslie was founded. Bartholomew was granted lands at Leslie in the district of the Garioch, near Aberdeen, originally known as the lands of Lesslyn. It is from Lesslyn that the Clan eventually took its name. The present Leslie Castle, built near site of the first primitive stronghold, recently was completely restored by architect David C. Leslie.
Bartholomew's son Malcolm was knighted by King David and had the Leslie lands confirmed to him by royal charter, the oldest personal land charter in Aberdeenshire. Malcolm's grandson, Sir Norman, was the first to have the family name recorded in a charter. He was one of the magnates of Scotland who sat in the parliament called by King Robert the Bruce in 1314. Sir Norman's son Andrew, the 6th Lord Leslie, was one of the great barons of Scotland who in 1320 signed the Declaration of Arbroath, a call to freedom. With Andrew's sons begins the spread of the family through several branches. The original line died out with Andrew's grandson David, but son Walter became the Earl of Ross, son John the progenitor of the Earls of Rothes, and son George the first Baron of Balquhain.
The third line, Leslie-Rothes, became the senior line with George who was created the first Earl of Rothes around 1457. George, 4th Earl of Rothes, had a significant diplomatic role in the reign of James V; Andrew, 5th Earl, was of importance to Mary, Queen of Scots and King James VI; John, 6th Earl, was a leader of the Scottish opposition to King Charles I and a champion of the National Covenant of 1638; John, 7th Earl, became General of the Army of Scotland during the reign of Charles II, Lord High Chancellor, and was created a duke. Subsequent Earls had high military and civil positions and became hereditary Representative Peers of Scotland in parliament until 1965 and the 20th Earl of Rothes, when this system was abolished. Ian, the present and 21st Earl of Rothes, Chief of Clan Leslie, as a hereditary peer was entitled to attend the House of Lords until this hereditary right was abolished in 1999.
The fourth line, the Leslies of Balquhain, became the largest and most prolific. Except for those very few directly related to the Rothes, just about all Leslies today are descended from the Balquhain, in particular via the Third Baron, Andrew. The Balquhain Leslies for centuries played important, often colorful part in Scottish and other history. From Andrew were descended a host of families, among them the Earls of Leven, Lords Newark, the Leslies of Pitcaple, Kininvie, Iden and Cults; in Ireland the Leslies of Kincraigie, Glaslough and Tarbert; the Lords Leslie in Russia, Counts Leslie in France and in the Holy Roman Empire. From these and other branches, many Leslies descended, who spread from Scotland all over the world. Many came to the United States and Canada, starting in the 18th century, mainly in the 19th. Leslies had transferred, in the 17th century, from Scotland to Ireland and a majority of those who came to the United States were descended from those who had gone to Ireland first.
Individual Leslies over the centuries gained fame as soldiers, participating in the military of Scotland, the United Kingdom, Sweden, Denmark, Germany, Poland, Russia, Austria, and the United States. The Leslies delivered many distinguished men of the cloth, such as John Leslie, Bishop of Ross, Counselor to Mary Queen of the Scots, and a later John Leslie, the famous royalist "Fighting Bishop" of Clogher in Ireland. Leslies gained notable success in the worlds of intellect and the arts, among them Sir Harald, jurist, created Lord Birsay; Sir John, physicist; Charles Robert, painter; Henry David, composer; Edith, educator; Mary Isobel, Lionel, and Eliza, writers; Peter, geologist; Thomas Edward, economist; Donald, sinologist; Ada, actress; Sir Sean, historian. There are over 1200 works by Leslies of various professions in the U.S. Library of Congress in Washington D.C.
The Clan Leslie Society was founded in 1978. Ian, the 21st Earl of Rothes, appointed the Honorable Alexander Leslie Klieforth, an American Diplomat, as his Commissioner in the United States of America with authority to setup and organize a Clan Society. The CLS was then founded, members recruited and its constitution and by-laws which govern the Society approved. They were ratified in 1980 in Charleston, SC, USA, which also elected the Society's first Chieftain and slate of officers. CLS International Gatherings are held biennially in various location

Bowser's Galaxy Reactor is accessible once you have 60 stars and most of the Grand Stars. To play it, visit Rosalina in the middle of the Comet Observatory.
Star 1: The Fate of the Universe[edit]
This is it – the final level. This is the 60th star, so when you go for 120, you have to play this level again. The first part is a castle wall with spotlights on them. Stay on the spotlights, and avoid the Dry Bones and Fire Pillars. The next part is a fire planet similar to a planetoid from the Melty Molten Galaxy. Here you must traverse the platforms before they fall into the lava. Avoid the fireballs and the jets of steam, and don't fall into the lava! The third part has ice blocks that make a path similar to the platforms in Space Junk Galaxy. Unlike those platforms, after a short time each one will collapse. Precision is the key here; one wrong move will drop you in the ice. The fourth part is a sand planet similar to a planetoid from the Dusty Dune Galaxy. Traverse the platforms while avoiding the Fire Pillars. Note the sand is one hit K.O. sand. The fifth part has cosmic platforms similar to ice blocks on the third planet, but this time you need to avoid the Fire Pillars, unlike the third planet. The sixth part has a Fire Ring planet from the Melty Molten Galaxy. Traverse the platforms while avoiding the Bullet Bills, Banzai Bills and lava. Dodge them all to reach a Launch Star to the planet near the Sun. You will then see Bowser Jr., who has Princess Peach behind him on his airship. Bowser is also here. Grab the Life Mushroom and 1-up Mushroom while climbing the stairs.
You will battle Bowser on three different Planets while Bowser Jr. watches the fight from his airship. On the first planet, Bowser will jump 3 times, creating 3 shockwaves. He will then turn into a boulder and roll at you. He looks similar to the boulders with the red centres, which gives you a hint on how to attack him. Just as those boulders can be destroyed by spin attacking them in the red centre, here you have to spin attack him in his face. He moves relatively slowly so this isn't too hard. He will start spinning, so spin attack him, then spin attack him again, then repeat once he stops spinning. On the second Planet closer to the Sun, Bowser will shoot fireballs in a line. The green plants will protect you from his fireballs. He will then roll using two of his shells. Here he looks similar to a Spiny plant, which again gives you a hint on how to attack him. You have to make a green plant hit him by spin attacking it, then spin attack him once he starts spinning. On the third planet, he will shoot fireballs, roll between two shells, and create 5 shockwaves at a time. Burn his tail by luring Bowser to ground pound the glass of Star energy, then spin his tail. He will start spinning, so spin attack him. Repeat this, and eventually you will make him fall off the gravitational pull and into the Sun.
The Ending[edit]
Mario flies Princess Peach back to his starting position after receiving the last Grand Star. The spotlights are gone, then something mysterious happens – the Sun is sucking rocks. Bowser is on one of them, then the Sun near his Galaxy Reactor turns into a huge black hole sucking in Mario, Peach, and the Comet Observatory. Then one of Mario's Lumas waves and zooms into the black hole, while all the Lumas jump into the black hole to stop it. Mario, Peach, and Bowser all end up at Princess Peach's castle. After the credits, the Purple Comet is unlocked which has Purple Coins (100 of them give you a star) and the last chapter in Rosalina's storybook is unlocked.

So I'm starting up a group again and one of my players wanted to mod his utility helicopter. After looking through T-rays emitters and X-ray emitters he decided to go with the later and during the discussion I began to wonder if X-rays are just better than T-rays.
Now, X-ray emitters are not in the augments section, but at the same time I wonder if it should. I don't think X-ray emitters are that big, so why not put one under the skin? On top of this they don't have any specified range of effectiveness nor are they stopped from going through skin to seeing if the enemy has cyberclaws installed. X-rays can still locate biomorphs through walls for precision targeting and finally, they cost the same.
So I'd like to have this discussion with you, what makes these two systems cost the same? Is X-ray clearly superior or do T-rays bring something else to the table? Discuss.

Can you improve our search ranking?
Yes. As we design websites from scratch, we know what they need to perform well on search engines.
We ensure each page is optimised for the keywords that you want to found for.
We'll submit your sitemap to search engines and use Google Analytics to monitor your traffic.
Are there any hidden costs?
No. We agree pricing with you beforehand so you know exactly what you will pay.
Quotes are always laid out in our proposal before we start any work, and costs are clearly documented.
The only time we would charge additional fees would be if a client requests a new page or some additional material or images for the website after our work has commenced. Any extras are agreed prior to work being undertaken.
What platform do you use to build websites?
Our platform of choice is WordPress. Here's why:
• Over a quarter of the world's websites use the WordPress platform (26.4%, source: W3Techs)
• It is a system that is easy to pass over should you ever wish to switch web designers
• The WordPress admin console is as simple to use as it gets, making future website edits, simple!
• You can give differing levels of admin console access to multiple users
• The code is clean and simple, making WordPress websites Google-friendly
• The design of each website is 100% customisable
• WordPress sites are totally scalable, meaning you can just keep on adding content without compromising performance
We are web designers. So, for larger websites, ones that may require linking in with databases, for example, we do build fully bespoke platforms.
Whether it is WordPress or bespoke, Codebreak's web design services are all about transparency and quality.
If you want to be in charge of editing your website as time goes on, we make it easy for you to do so. We can give you and your team whatever access rights you want. But most of our clients prefer us to do any ongoing updating and they simply pay us a monthly maintenance fee.
You will end up with a website tailored to your branding and requirements. We do not provide 'off the shelf' web design packages.

Hi folks, I'm Cillian Mulligan, a Business Commerce Graduate of NUIG. I specialised in Marketing as part of my final year and I also spent a semester studying in BSB Dijon, France as part of the International Experience programme.
My new role is to represent Jameson Irish Whiskey in Bangalore and East India as a Brand Ambassador. I completed four weeks of extensive training on all things whiskey at the end of the summer and I've been in market since mid-August. Put simply, my role is to educate Indian consumers and bartenders about Irish whiskey and create advocacy for Jameson through activations and events. This varies from small scale tastings to taking over large festivals or other events to build brand awareness and engagement with consumers.
The thing that attracted me most to the role was the opportunity to develop my own skills by moving abroad and testing myself in a new culture. I also love the social aspect of the job as it is mostly field-based and as cliché as it sounds, no two days are ever the same.
The responsibilities of a full-time job can be daunting at first but when you enjoy your work and are passionate about it, it becomes much easier and second nature over time.
After feeling nervous in the build up to the assessment days, I suppose what surprised me most was how at ease I felt once things kicked off. Everyone from the receptionist to the managers, and even the other candidates, were really sound and wanted you to perform to your best.
I had heard about the programme through word of mouth and started researching on the Jameson Grad Programme website to learn more about the role. After watching nearly every 'day in the life' video on the programmes YouTube channel of various Brand Ambassadors, I knew this was my dream role. I then went to the Grad Fair in the Bailey Allen and had a chat with the guys at the Jameson stand. They told me all about the application process and I got to work making my application video.
So one tip would be to start building your own personal brand to become the most suitable person for the role of a Jameson Brand Ambassador. Travel and get as much experience working across different sectors and cultures, say 'yes' more and get involved with societies and fundraising for charities, keep on any sports or hobbies you have, take an interest in marketing and, develop your own social media accounts.
What really helped me was reaching out to past or current Brand Ambassadors on the programme to ask for advice. I couldn't believe how helpful they all were to a complete stranger! I suppose some of the best advice I received was to be yourself. As generic as that might sound, it's very true. They are not looking for a hyped up/fake version of yourself, rather your genuine, best-self.
I hope to continue with this programme for the full three years whether that be in India or a different market. Most graduates stay in one market for first year of the programme and then rotate to a new market for their last two years. It all depends on the market needs and if you would like a new challenge personally. After that, I'd love to apply for a role within the broader parent company of Pernod Ricard whether that be in innovation or marketing, abroad or in Ireland, I haven't quite figured that out yet!
Check out my LinkedIn if you want to get in touch or find out anything at all about the programme, I'd love to help out any way I can. (linkedin.com/in/cillian-mulligan-693a78131)

This product will certainly address any concerns you may have about your tiles crashing down.
The kit itself is good, but these should be added to the canvas package
Great so you dont have to build something yourself
After my 25 canvas panels ripped off my walls one day, I was excited to see that nano leaf came out with these wall mounts. Although they are easy to assemble, I am disappoint with the grid linkers provided. Something about the transfer of electricity or something but only around five panels adjacent to my power panel gets super lit up. The rest in the chain is super weak. Maybe this is because I have them all on one straight line? But this should be cautioned before I purchased this. I don't doubt these will hold my canvas to the wall, but I would hesitate on using the grid links provided......

When: Saturday at Amherst at 1 pm
What you need to know: Tufts (5-1) will travel to Amherst (6-0) in a crucial NESCAC contest. The Mammoths are the only undefeated team in the NESCAC, sitting just ahead second-place Trinity and Tufts in the NESCAC standings. Amherst cruised to a 33-3 victory last week against conference opponent Wesleyan, but still have to play Tufts, Williams and Trinity. The Mammoths passing attack is led by junior quarterback Ollie Eberth who has totaled 1,414 yards and eight touchdowns through the air while adding six rushing touchdowns. Junior running back Biafra Okoronkwo has scored four rushing touchdowns for and leads the team with 501 yards on the ground. Eberth has connected with receiver Bo Berluti 29 times for 374 yards and four touchdowns. The Mammoth defense's leading tackler is senior linebacker John Callahan with 40. Senior linebacker Andrew Yamin leads the NESCAC in sacks. Amherst has been dominant this season averaging 28.2 points per game while only allowing 7.8 points a game. For the Jumbos, senior quarterback Ryan McDonald has thrown for 1,189 yards and ten passing touchdowns. McDonald is also the team's leading rusher with 351 yards and six touchdowns. Sophomore Mike Pedrini has also rushed for 238 yards and three touchdowns for the Jumbos. Tufts senior receiver Jack Dolan has 21 catches and a team-high 227 yards to go along with four touchdowns. The brown and blue's junior linebacker Greg Holt has the most tackles on the team recording 52 through six games. The Jumbos have the second highest scoring offense in the NESCAC averaging 28.7 points and allowing 14.7 points per game. A season ago, the Jumbos were edged by the Mammoths 31-26.
Men's Soccer
When: Tuesday at Bowdoin at 2:30 pm and Saturday vs. TBD in NESCAC Quarterfinals
What you need to know: The third-ranked Jumbos (12-0-2, 7-0-2 NESCAC) will wrap up regular season play when they travel to conference opponent Bowdoin (9-3-2, 5-2-2 NESCAC) on Tuesday. A win or a tie with the Polar Bears will secure the top seed in the upcoming NESCAC Tournament for the Jumbos. The Polar Bear offense has averaged 1.79 goals per game and has been led by senior midfielder Moctar Niang's team-high 13 points. Bowdoin's defense has played well, only allowing 0.71 goals per contest. Tufts offensive attack that averages 2.07 goals per contest is led by junior forward Joe Braun who leads the NESCAC in goals with seven. Senior backs Sterling Weatherbie and Jackson Najjar have been crucial to the Jumbo defense only allowing an average of 0.41 goals per game. Last year, Tufts and Bowdoin drew 0-0 in double overtime in their only regular season match-up. Tuesdays result will determine where the Jumbos fall in the NESCAC standings, but they have secured home field advantage for quarterfinal play. So, the Jumbos will host a NESCAC Quarterfinal game on Saturday at Bello Field, but their opponent won't be determined until regular season play is over on Tuesday night.
Women's Soccer
When: Tuesday at Bowdoin at 3 pm and Saturday vs. TBD in NESCAC Quarterfinal
What you need to know: The No. 23 Tufts women's soccer team (9-3-2, 5-2-2 NESCAC) will travel to Bowdoin (6-6-2, 2-6-1 NESCAC) on Tuesday to wrap up regular season play. The Jumbos will be either the third or fourth seed in the NESCAC tournament, depending on Tuesday's results. A Jumbo win and an Amherst loss to Trinity would make the Jumbos the three seed. But, if both the Jumbos and the Mammoths win, or the Mammoths win and the Jumbos lose, they will be seeded fourth in the upcoming tournament. Either way they are hosting a quarterfinal game at Kraft on Saturday and their opponent will be determined when Tuesday's games are in the books. First up though, Bowdoin. The Polar Bears senior forward Sydney Jones is the team leader in points with ten. Bowdoin has averaged 1.93 goals per game while allowing 0.90 goals per game. Tufts sophomore Sophie Lloyd has team-highs in goals(9) and points (22), and the 22 points is second best in the NESCAC. Fellow sophomore Liz Reed has 19 points on the season, and a NESCAC-leading seven assists. The Jumbos defense has been strong all season only allowing an average of 0.54 goals per game thanks in part to the stellar play of senior goalie Emily Bowers. A year ago, Tufts edged Bowdoin 1-0 at home.
Field Hockey
When: Wednesday at Bowdoin at 6 pm and Saturday vs. TBD in NESCAC Quarterfinals
What you need to know: The third-ranked Jumbos (13-1, 8-1 NESCAC) will wrap up regular season play when they travel to 11th-ranked Bowdoin (11-3, 6-3 NESCAC) on Wednesday night. Win or lose the Jumbos have secured the second seed in the upcoming NESCAC tournament. They will face off with the seventh seed, which will be the loser of the Amherst/Trinity game also being played on Wednesday night. But, the Jumbos will look to avenge a NESCAC Quarterfinal loss to the Polar Bears last year, and pick up a win in their regular season finale. Polar Bear junior midfielder Emma Stevens leads the NESCAC with 19 goals on the year. They have generated an average of 3.8 goals per game while only allowing 1.18 goals per game. For Tufts, senior forward Gigi Tutoni has a team-high ten goals to lead the Jumbo offense. The brown and blue score 2.8 goals per game while only allowing 0.56 goals per game.

What you need to know: The Jumbos (14-8, 5-3 NESCAC) will wrap up regular season play with their last NESCAC weekend hosting Connecticut College on Friday and Wesleyan on Saturday. The Jumbos enter the weekend tied for fourth place in the conference standings with Middlebury, but this weekend could shake everything up, so the Jumbos will look for two wins this weekend to earn the highest seed possible going into the NESCAC Tournament the following weekend. First up is Connecticut College (9-13, 2-6 NESCAC) on Friday at 7 pm, which will also be Senior Night for the Jumbos. The Camels offense has been led by sophomore outside hitter Emma Hewlin who is averaging 2.83 kills per set. Leading the defense, sophomore Elle Kass averages 4.46 digs per set. After the Friday night match up, the Jumbos will host Wesleyan (15-3, 8-0 NESCAC) on Saturday afternoon.

A junior trio is leading the Carindal offense with Nicole Hilton (2.11 kills per set), Mia Hogan (2.77 kills per set) and Stasie Litinsky (2.71 kills per set) doing a bunch of scoring for the Cardinals. For the Jumbos, freshman Cate Desler leads the team averaging 2.76 kills per set while sophomore libero Sophia Acker is averaging 4.02 digs per set. Last year the Jumbos topped Connecticut College and Wesleyan in the regular season, but they were edged by Wesleyan in the NESCAC Championship.

Senior co-captain Colin Raposo finished 20th overall with a 25:55.7 time in the eight-kilometer event last year. The Jumbos return all five runners who finished in the team's top five last year and will look to lean on the senior experience the team has. Fellow senior co-captain Dylan Jones has had a great year, as he won the Pineland Shootout and had the best finish in the Purple Valley Classic.

Fellow senior Olivia Barnett also finished 13th overall for the Jumbos. Bettez has had a phenomenal senior year as she has won three races, including a first-place finish in the All-New England Championships and finished third in the Connecticut College Invitational.

The volleyball team had a huge weekend at the New England Challenge, picking up wins over Springfield, Babson and MIT. Senior Mackenzie Bright was named the tournament MVP. It was hard to pick just one of her kills that was worthy of Play of the Week honors, so here are a couple!

Tea-toxing: The Organic Way
With the welcoming of 2019 and the attention on new year's resolutions and healthier lifestyles, we want to bring your attention to the world of organic and our organic loose-leaf teas.
A Brief Delve into the Organic Market
According to the British Journal of Nutrition, consumers over the past 20 years have demanded more organic food on the shelves. This demand came from the increased health concerns of pesticides and agrochemicals found in non-organic products; as well as the negative adverse effects these growth methods had on the environment. There needed to be change.
This all began with implementing the organic crop production standards into the everyday crop production of certain foods/products.
Organically produced foods contain natural organic fertilisers and carry out a more beneficial crop rotation, which increases the soil N levels. These methods of growth and welfare not only make our food the healthiest and the best it can be, but it also appeases our nurturing human nature that we are maintaining and looking after our planet, simultaneously.
So really, growing organic is the nicest way to grow! And this is very apparent as we see the organic market increasing.
The Soil Association's 2018 Marketing Report shows that in February 2018, the UK organic market was worth £2.2 billion; it having risen 6% in 2017. With the organic market holding down six years of steady growth and popularity, it accounts for 1.5% of the overall UK drink and food market.
It seems organic could be the way forward, and this is a vision we want to set in focus for our teas.
At The Tea Makers of London, we believe in bringing you a high-quality tea experience in every cup. To achieve this, our leaves need to be procured in the best way possible, with our fields and you in mind.
This is where our organic tea range comes in.
Our Organic Teas
We provide a variety of organic loose-leaf teas, each providing their own distinct flavours, health benefits and own indulgent tea experiences.
You can be assured that choosing from these teas, they have been reared and picked with care – with no added chemicals or flavourings. This range meets the Soil Association Organic Standards.
Find your favourite tea below.
Dragon Well is known to be the national drink of China. This fragrant organic tea is packed full of amino acids and Vitamin C. Like most fine Chinese green teas, it also has one of the highest concentrations of catechin. Dragon Well tea proves to be royalty in the tea world, its superior reputation preceding itself as it ranks highly in the top ten famous teas of China. It has a fresh nutty aroma with a delicate aftertaste. Give into the Dragon Well and find out what it's like to be royal this year.
This loose leaf tea's robust flavour transports you to the wild bush Western Province of South Africa, where it is produced. The delicate leaves are lightly oxidised to enhance the distinct Rooibos flavour and being naturally caffeine-free and extremely high in antioxidants, this is a wonderfully healthy, delicious drink that can be enjoyed by the whole family.
Rooibos tea is full of vitamins and minerals such as zinc; copper; calcium; manganese; magnesium and potassium, to help build strong teeth and bones. It can also aid the skin with acne, eczema and sunburn etc. It has been proven to be a delicious bedtime drink to stave off insomnia. What a super-tea!
Our award-winning Vanilla Organic Rooibos tea is a popular choice for new years' health kicks – due to its high levels of antioxidants and the overall healthy nature of the tea. It imparts a smooth and full-bodied liqueur, leaving a creamy vanilla aftertaste. It is worth trying this herbal infusion as a hot or cold beverage, with or without milk/sweetener. Taste it yourself and see why this tea was awarded its star at the Great Taste Awards 2016, from the Guild of Fine Food.
Matcha is a consumer favourite, for its many health benefits as well as for its Instagram-able charm. It is said that it can boost metabolism and help reduce cholesterol levels, when consumed on a regular basis. Our Organic Japanese Matcha (Premium Grade) is a great introduction to those new to the world of Matcha. Did we mention it is also on sale?!
This organic ceremonial Matcha powder is meticulously produced by tea experts and imparts a silky and rich texture with a wonderfully deep flavour, and subtle hints of sweetness. This stems from the high concentration of healthy amino acids. Researchers have found that the concentration of antioxidants available in Matcha tea is 10 times greater than the amount of EGCG available in other fine green teas, so this is a great health booster. It is also very versatile, and many use Matcha in their teas and coffees, juices and cakes!
EGCG can help to prevent cellular and genetic damage by neutralizing unstable molecules - also known as 'free radicals'.
The popular Ceylon tea is the known as the tea of Sri Lanka, and our Ahinsa organic Ceylon tea is grown in the peaceful Nilmini Estate. What makes this black tea special (other than it being organic) is the belief behind its growth. Ahinsa is practised in the production of the tea, as it is produced in a way that respects humans, animals, plants and the environment. With its full-bodied flavour and caramel aroma, it makes a perfect comforting morning brew.
Ahinsa - a belief in the sacredness of all living creatures and urging the avoidance of harm and violence.

Very informative blog - I enjoyed reading it. So interesting to know that not only does tea taste good but it can be used on the skin as well. I will certainly try the rooibos on dry skin which seems a much more eco friendly method rather than using lots of creams. Thank you

- The importance of interface usability is not exaggerated. Users don't buy, register, or subscribe to the updates. What are the reasons for such behavior? The reason is that the website has unfriendly and hard to understand interface. Usability helps to meet the expectations of the web sources owners as well as users. Before World Usability day we decided to collect and recall the main Usability principles. They are all known, but sometimes these basics are forgotten. Supposing that some of them will help avoid mistakes and create great websites.
Here are the 5 Usability rules:
1. The rule of the 7 points
Human brain has limited abilities. Especially, it relates to memory and attention. A person can keep in short-term memory no more than 5-9 entities. Therefore, you shouldn't place in the website navigation more than 7 points.
2. The rule of the 2 seconds
The less the user waits for the response of the program, site or application, the more likely it is that the necessary action will be done. It depends on the goal of the site or app. 2 seconds is the optimal time interval of the program response. Think twice before you put on the site a heavy flash intro or picture, because it could be the reason of the users' refusal to check out your site.
3. The rule of 3 clicks
No one likes to surf the page, in search of the necessary information and functionality. The visitor should be able to get from the main page to any other page of the site, making no more than 3 clicks. In addition, it contributes to a more successful indexing site search engine.
4. Fitts Law
The model of human movements published by Paul Fitts in 1954, determines the time necessary to move quickly to the target zone as a function from the distance to the target and the size of the target.
In other words, the law can be explained as follows: it is easier to point at bigger button, than smaller. But it doesn't mean that the biggest button is the most important. The Fitts Law allows to determine the size of the interface elements, their location and relative position on the screen in accordance with how simple (or, on the contrary, difficult) their use should be. For example, if an interface object, such as a link, is already large enough, it makes no sense to make it larger.
5. Inverted Pyramid
This principle is saying, that the article on the site should begin with a conclusion, followed by key points, and conclude with the least important information for readers. This is optimal for the web, where the user wants to get information as quickly as possible.
Nevertheless, any interface should be tested. Don't forget about usability testing, because it is vital for usability interface. Testing should be on every part of usability design process.
