![]() So now I have two networks between my host and guest, and I can ping in both directions on both networks. It did not work at first, but the problem was solved by rebooting the guest Linux OS (who knows why this was needed). I then made sure all links were up on both the guest and the host and tried to ping across the VMnet3 and VMnet4. ![]() The VMware DHCP server on the host assigned IP address 192.168.4.4 to the device (eth2). The VMware DHCP server on the host assigned IP address 192.168.3.3 to the device (eth1).Ģ. I then added two network adapters on my Linux guest:ġ. The network device created is at 192.168.4.1. The DHCP starting address is 192.168.4.4. VMnet4 is exactly the same, but with subnet IP 192.168.4.0. I'm not sure about the selection of "1" (often used as a gateway address) as the right-most octet, but I don't see a way to change it.Ģ. When the network is created, a device "VMware Virtual Ethernet Adapter for VMnet3" is created with IP address 192.168.3.1. I also checked "Use local DHCP service to distribute IP addresses to VMs" and selected starting address 192.168.3.3. VMnet3 is a host-only network with "Connect a host virtual adapter to this network" checked in the GUI. I have configured two VMnets in the Network Editor:ġ. There is no firewalling configured on either host or guest OS. I want to create a bridge on the Linux guest between two VMnets so I can push traffic from the host through the bridge. I have a Windows 7 host running VMware Workstation 11, and a guest running Ubuntu 12.04.

![]() ![]() The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and pharmaceutical company GlaxoSmithKline co-sponsored a Phase 3 clinical trial of a candidate subunit herpes vaccine on nearly 8,000 women across the country. Researchers have developed many experimental attenuated and inactivated herpes vaccines, starting in the 1930s and continuing through the 1970s, though none was effective enough to be approved and licensed. The infection can remain in the body indefinitely, and sores can recur again and again. Some infected people may have few or no symptoms of illness, but many others experience blisters and sores in the genital area. Genital herpes is a viral infection caused by herpes simplex viruses. The picture is different for children: infants and children who become infected with hepatitis B are much more likely than adults to become chronically infected. The others remain infected and are at risk for serious liver disease. Up to 95% of adults infected with the virus recover and do not become chronically (permanently) infected. Symptoms of hepatitis B infection include fever, abdominal pain, and jaundice, among others. It can be spread sexually, or through sharing injection drug use equipment, needle sticks, birth to an infected mother, contact with open sores or wounds of an infected person, and sharing razors or toothbrushes with an infected person. Hepatitis B is an illness caused by the hepatitis B virus (HBV) and transmitted via contact with infectious bodily fluids. A nine-valent vaccine (HPV9, Gardasil 9) was approved in 2014. All HPV vaccines use just a protein from the shell of certain HPV types: they contain no viral RNA or DNA, and so cannot cause disease or replicate in the body. FDA approved another vaccine, Cervarix (HPV2) from GlaxoSmithKline, which protects against two types of HPV, in 2009. Food and Drug Administration approved Gardasil (HPV4), a Merck vaccine for four types of HPV, in 2006. Mathematical models have shown that more than 80% of women will have been infected with genital HPV by the time they reach age 50. HPV is common: a recent study showed nearly 27% of women aged 14-59 tested positive for one or more strains of HPV. Other HPV types are the main cause of cervical cancer, and some are associated with anal, penile, mouth, and throat cancers. However, certain types of HPV cause genital warts in other people. Most people who contract HPV have no symptoms, and they quickly clear the virus from their bodies. This article will only discuss sexually transmitted HPV. Human papillomaviruses (HPV) belong to a large family of viruses, only some of which are sexually transmitted. Therefore, vaccines for certain viral STIs are in use, and others are in development. ![]() Viral STIs are often highly persistent despite current therapeutic options or have no acceptable treatment available. The availability of treatments means vaccines against these diseases are not a top priority, although the increased resistance of gonorrhea to antibiotics may lead to a shift in priorities. They are usually effectively treated with antibiotics, although many patients do not know that they are infective and can spread the disease to other partners. Some STIs, such as gonorrhea, Chlamydia, and syphilis, are caused by bacteria. In some cases, people can further reduce their risk of contracting a sexually transmitted infection by being vaccinated. Risk of contracting STIs can be reduced by avoiding sexual contact, or by consistent use of condoms during sexual activity, or by practicing safer forms of sexual intimacy. Some STIs have other, nonsexual means of transmission. STI stands for sexually transmitted infection (sexually transmitted disease, or STD, is also used.) People contract STIs through sexual contact with an infected person. ![]() ![]() When I want to write a paper, or a talk, or a lecture about a particular topic, I can go to the collections that are relevant and work my way through the reading. Everything I read or think might be interesting or relevant to my work in some way goes into it and gets assigned to one or more (sub)collections. ![]() I have multiple top-level collections (currently 24 but it tends to increase over time) and each collection has as many subcollections as it needs. I use it as a database for papers, books, articles, etc., with metadata management and categorisation and so on. I think that's all the software I use regularly for various academic uses. Word for writing, PowerPoint for making presentations, Anki for flashcards, StreamLabs OBS for pre-recording presentations. If I could do that, I honestly think it would have literally anything I could want. It's very possible to make-do with all the other annotation options, but I wish I could "draw" on them. It needs a way to draw on the documents as part of annotation, similar to One Note. in different groups and easily see/share what one another are reading, assign readings to lab staff, etc. You can have your lab, your cohort, your dissertation committee, your colleagues, etc. Note taking and annotation inside of Zotero itself. Between collections, tagging, and assigning 'related files' to one another, you can really stay super organized in a myriad of ways. (I sub though just to support the project I love!) Extra storage via any cloud service like Google drive so you can store infinite amounts of stuff (if you have net access) without needing to pay Zotero if you wish. Library proxies I have mine set up for my university so I don't often need to worry about all the rigamaroll of bypassing paywalls through library requests, it does it automatically. It has a lot of features worth mentioning, but I think some of the features that it has that not enough people employ effectively are: Reading papers, taking notes, managing my workflow when writing. poster templates, paper templates, letter templates). Storing my own templates I make that I will use in academic work (e.g. Storing useful figures, diagrams, or tables. Word integration for citation management in any written work. Scheduling when I'll read papers I'm supposed to read for X or Y event or lecture. I believe anyone who isn't using Zotero (or something else with the same functionality) is really shooting themselves in the foot.

They have short bristles that are capable of shifting large amounts of debris and are particularly good with textured floors. Push brooms are able to cover a wide surface area in a short amount of time with very little effort. One of the more common broom designs on construction sites owing to their especially wide brush head. Others have more spaced out bristles designed mainly for the collection of hair, as opposed to the full cleaning of a floor. It is a highly effective method of cleaning up pet hair, with some designed to have tight-knit bristles to more effectively gather small debris. The idea to use rubber to gather hair more easily makes this unique to other brooms. The soft rubber bristles act like a pet hair magnet, attracting trapped dog fur and gathering it into an easy, manageable mass. Rubber brooms are fast becoming one of the best dog hair broom designs on the market, as well as the most popular. This does make the standard broom less effective than some of the other pet hair brooms on the market. Though the synthetic bristles are both sleek and move very easily, meaning pet hairs can shake loose whilst you're sweeping. They're easily the most common of the four designs and are probably the cheapest option. Standard BroomsĪ standard broom has the typical tightly gathered thin soft bristles that are great for gathering not only hair but dirt, tiny dust, and debris as well. ![]() Each has its own merits depending on the type of flooring you're wanting to use it for and the amount of fur you're having to deal with on a regular basis. There are four types of brooms you can use to collect dog hair. With such a wide range of dog hair brooms on the market, you are guaranteed to find something that will work for you. Try to find the best design for you within your budget. Though they are extremely effective tools, they shouldn't be too expensive to purchase. Once you have decided on the best design for you, you will want to decide on a budget. If your broom storage space is only narrow then be sure to pick a broom that will fit - some come with fold-away dustpans to make both storage and the cleaning process easier. If you don't have the space to store a standing broom, consider purchasing one that can be broken down to fit into a box or cupboard. The head should attach easily to the handle without the worry of it falling off mid-sweep. Some brooms have extendable handles that are perfect for anyone that may struggle with mobility. Whichever broom you decide on should be easy to set up before use. ![]() With delicate flooring such as laminate, you will want to avoid the tougher materials that would have the potential to scratch it. The bristles can range from hard-wearing plastic to soft silicone or rubber. The handle itself should always be made of a durable material that can last well with regular use. This will help you to decide which type of material to go for. Take into account the type of flooring you will be using the broom on. The best dog hair brooms are designed to make the entire cleaning process go much more smoothly, so try to pick the best design for your home that can do the job properly. Whichever broom you select should be quick and easy for you to use. When you've got a lot of hair to clear up on a regular basis, a rubber broom is quick and effective at extracting that hair and gathering it up. This is where a rubber dog hair broom would be the most effective. ![]() If your pup is a heavy shedder with a fluffy coat, such as a Husky, German Shephard, Malamute, or even a Pomeranian, you're going to need something more specifically designed for the job. Light shedding dogs are much easier to clean up after, and you're unlikely to require a specialist broom for such a small amount (unless, of course, you choose to). It is capable of cleaning dog hair, and general dirt or debris from hardwood floors just as efficiently as a vacuum cleaner. If you have a dog with shirt wiry fur, that is less likely to drop large amounts of dog hair throughout your house, then you will likely find that a standard broom design would suffice. Features to Consider When Buying a Broom for Dog Hairīefore purchasing a broom to help you to keep your home pet hair free, you may want to consider a few things to help you to pick the correct design. Washtub with 40☌ or two dots – Do not exceed 40☌ or 105☏.Washtub with 30☌ or a single dot – Do not exceed 30☌ or 80☏.Labels which show the machine wash water symbol with numbers inside are much simpler and make it very easy to decipher: The label on your clothing item will tell you which temperature you should not exceed when washing it, this avoids shrinking or other damage to the material occurring. Washing temperatures range from cold to hot and are suited to different fabric types. The handwash setting will tumble clothes much more gently – preventing shrinkage or snagging of the delicate fabrics. Some washing machines do have a handwash function for delicate items, so you could opt to use this setting for cashmere and silk garments for example. Items which require handwashing should be cleaned very gently by hand at 40☌ or less. This symbol is pretty self-explanatory as it shows a hand in some water. So let’s take a closer look at these little graphics and discover what they mean. There are quite a number of different washing symbols that can appear on the labels of our clothes, from recommended temperatures to hand washing only. So here’s a post all about those tricky symbols and what each of them means. ![]() ![]() With a bunch of different shapes with dots, crosses and lines… it can be hard to decipher what those little pictograms are telling you to do. We all know to look at the labels in our clothes before we wash them, but some of those symbols can be a bit ambiguous at times. ![]() Flash auras are always something that I’ve been keen with, since they run less risk and act more like a combat trick with lingering advantage. +1/+2 is barely high enough impact to be worth playing, I think. You can force difficult decisions from your opponent in aggressive decks from the threat of activation, and against aggro this 1 mana 1/3 is doing a great job of holding things up at a cost that doesn’t slow your curve. This sort of card actually plays decently in every deck. It’s very difficult to attack into 4 open mana for this reason, but 4 open mana is quite a bit and readable. I like the aggressive option early and think this will be a nice 2-drop for a lot of white decks.Īnother massive headache to play around considering +1/+3 is huge in Orzhov token decks as suddenly all the Spirits that got in for damage are untapped and blocking as 2/4s. That comes later though, when Caracal is already falling off a bit. Basically treat it like Mausoleum Guard in Innistrad drafting. I loved Mausoleum Guard in Innistrad and this is almost certainly an upgrade, which is needed for today’s level of creature. The fact that you don’t get the creatures back quickly is a huge detriment.Ī half card plus a whole card is 1.5 cards, and despite the fact that Ministrant is slow, the value is there. It would be good but not great for 1 less mana, but 5 is too much.Ĭute with ETB synergy but this is mostly a 5 mana 4/5 vigilance, which is certainly playable but not crazy. 5 mana 3/3 is just not an acceptable body, the ability is nice but not that great, and the afterlife is a bit minor. Changing combat math is better than minor trickery. My question is if this is better than just running Arrester’s Zeal and I’m saying no. When it plays big though, it plays quite well as a nice way to win races and eat creatures. Is my creature big enough to eat their guy? Can it do so without risk? If this goes wrong, you can easily 2-for-1 yourself. It doesn’t pump your creature and costs 2 mana, so that adds a lot of situational components. Nothing crazy but certainly in the right place. Either way, you’re looking at a nice 2/2 for 2 that helps you win races or stall. One multicolored spell makes this great, it is already good on the curve which is important.Īggro decks want this, slower decks want this. Fills the curve fine though as a late pick. Underwhelming, 3 mana 3/2 is slightly the going rate these days and the ability is not that great. Ghostly Prison for a turn in a format that is aggressive is quite nice, 3 mana 3/3 is still a good deal. So play it sometimes if you want to stall and don’t get anything better. Inspiring Captain continues to be uninspiring.įiller defensive 2-drop for the right deck, but 1/3 stats don’t stop a lot of things and it doesn’t pose a clock. Similar situation to Legion’s Judgement which was good into dinosaurs but not a ton else. It just is very underwhelming in some spots so I can’t bump it up higher. ![]() This isn’t going to do much to non-green guilds, but it is quite good into Gruul and Simic and hits a couple random things in other guilds so you can certainly maindeck it. Mighty Leap finally updates to the new era of pump spells. Situational lifegain doesn’t change the fact that this is worse than Gold-Forged Sentinel. Adding on this does nothing when behind, and you have a real candidate for an absurdly overrated card.įliers are much larger than they used to be, but even older fliers outclass a 3/4 for 6. This is a difficult one to grade because the flying token synergy is real, but the real question then is why aren’t you attacking with all your creatures? This can be useful against other aggressive decks to hold them back, but if they start swinging to force trades the effect of this card is minimized. Those are the worst case scenarios, and she does a fantastic job at winning you the game in literally every circumstance. There are some rare spots when you’re racing where you can blow them out with this, or even if you’re behind to trade it off with their biggest creature and go to 10 to buy a turn or two.

While consultants can provide objectivity in their evaluation and advice, note that consultants sometimes have pre-existing relationships with members of an organization’s leadership who may want the consultant to offer an “objective” stamp of approval for a specific direction already identified. Perhaps the firm is looking for someone with specialized skills to work on a short-term (or longer-term) project, or perhaps the firm is looking for someone with an outside or new perspective. Why are Consultants Used?įirms use consultants for a variety of reasons. It may be easier to work directly with an agency who is already set-up to work in these areas. If you want to consult for the military and often in government positions, you will need to have a security clearance. For example, if you consult for PK-12, you will most likely need teaching experience. You may need additional or specialized skills, depending on the specific sector. Be sure to review the Department’s Occupational Outlook Handbook and ONet Online. The best source of information for employment across economic sectors, as well as information about specific occupations, is the United States Department of Labor. Instructional design is a field of expertise that is used across all economic sectors to work on projects from industry to non-profit organizations to the military to PK-12 education to corporations to higher education and government. There are different tax and legal implications and business license requirements for owning a business, so be sure to consult professionals such as tax lawyers and CPAs. A contractor might work directly for an agency as a W-2 employee (the taxes will be paid by the agency) but work on-site at the client’s organization. You are more likely to work under an IRS Form 1099, which means that you will be paid a gross amount and you’ll need to pay for your own taxes and medical insurance.Ī contractor is often perceived as someone who is working for a limited amount of time in a narrow role with specific tasks on a larger project within a formal organization. If you work for yourself or with other consultants, you will need to choose a business structure, such as a sole proprietorship or limited liability corporation (LLC). The Difference between a Consultant and ContractorĪs a consultant, you are more likely to work directly with your client rather than through an intermediary organization. In this section, you will read about what sectors consultants work in, why firms use consultants, what skills you will need, where you will physically work, and whether or not consulting is a good fit based on your individual circumstances. Preparing for a Job as a ConsultantĪs you prepare for a job as a consultant, it is important to establish how a consultant is different from other employment types. Simply, a professional consultant offers considered opinions related to tailored solutions for specific clients and their needs. This chapter is an introduction to the world of consulting and discuss how to prepare for and find a job as a consultant, write proposals and contracts, and succeed as a consultant. ![]() Being an instructional design consultant is not much different than the other kinds of formal and informal consulting you have probably already done. You are likely to have already been a consultant in some way today. Think of the many ways you have already been a consultant either giving or receiving advice, guidance, and opinions. A consultant means different things to different people, but basically means “to consult,” or seek someone’s opinion, advice, or guidance or, seen from the other side, to consult is to offer someone your opinion, advice, or guidance.
