Swatches from left to right, top to bottom: white // super white // soft chamois // decorator’s white // simply white // winter white // brilliant white // cloud nine // seashell It’s a crisp classic color that I rely on in almost every room in our home. I use whites for ceilings, trim, millwork, doors, etc. Here are the swatches I grabbed that are now on my radar for future projects… let’s start with the easiest palette: whites. It had been a few years since Emmett & I had used their paint, and it’s very nice! They have a great line of products, quality paint, and some stunning colors. Typically, we’re a Sherwin-Williams family, but I found the perfect swatch for my home office, which led me to purchase Benjamin Moore for that particular project ( read that post here). Consider this a helpful place to start, pull swatches, and always test your paint! Remember- paint looks different in each home based on its surroundings, light, and the direction a room is facing …along with many other factors. Please swatch your paint prior to committing! I’m often on the receiving end of negative messages or emails because a paint color didn’t look as expected. I’ve done my best to reflect the accurate paint color, but each monitor or screen can view color differently. *Disclaimer: I photographed these swatches in natural light and the images are edited in RGB for web use. Click through for some of my current favorite Benjamin Moore swatches- or definitely pin them for later! I’m keeping this post short, sweet, and informative. I didn’t have a method to my madness, I just compiled swatches in a variety of palettes that felt fresh and timeless to me. As promised, I have a paint post for you today! Last week when picking up paint for my office renovation, while the paint was getting mixed, I spent some time at my local True Value Hardware store gathering some swatches that felt inspiring. We wear durags to match our clothes or shoes and look and ultimately feel good.Welcome to Doo Rag Nation the #1 online shop in the U.S.A for its head apparel.

The invention of the durag is attributed to black culture. There is not one person who is responsible for inventing the durag. This item has become a cultural staple for the modern black man at Drippy Rags our core belief is it is the durag is like wearing a crown it helps us express ourselves, feel great, and be the best we can be. Recently the MLB TV announcer, Bob Brenly, mocked Marcus Stroman, a Black baseball player for the New York Mets, for wearing a durag but the result of this action from the announcer brought more popularity to this hair accessory and the players brand throughout social media. The impact of the piece of head cloth has also cause controversies through out society from schools to in the media. His nickname is Durag B.I.Įven white men such as WWE owner and wrestler star Vince McMahon and Rapper Eminem wore a durag on tv. NBA star Brandon Ingram frequently wears durags in his interviews and his pregame outfits.

In recent years wearing durags have been a fashion trend and you can see many people wear it across social media. Black men started to wear wear durags to differentiate themselves. The late 1960s the Black Power Movement added power to this accessory. The durag was used for hair protection and to create and maintain black men's wave patterns. However, it was in the 1930s, during the era of “Great Depression” and “Harlem Renaissance” the usage of the durag started to change.Īfrican Americans men started using durags for their hairstyles throughout the united states.

They are also worn for fashion to match or reveal one’s outfit and fashion sense. The Durag (other names: do-rag, du rag, dew rag, doo rag, or wave cap) is a scarf that is tied down to one’s head to create, preserve, or and style one’s hair style. I tried to make this for anyone who's heard of a durag but don't actually know what it is and for those just curious in the origin of the durag. What is a Durag and the History of the Durag?

Even though he was clumsy with his hands, he had a genius for designing apparatus and diagnosing its problems. In 1884 he was named to the prestigious Cavendish Professorship of Experimental Physics at Cambridge, although he had personally done very little experimental work. He was then recommended to Trinity College, Cambridge, where he became a mathematical physicist. Instead young Thomson attended Owens College, Manchester, which had an excellent science faculty. His father intended him to be an engineer, which in those days required an apprenticeship, but his family could not raise the necessary fee. Ironically, Thomson-great scientist and physics mentor-became a physicist by default. His assistant, Francis Aston, developed Thomson’s instrument further and with the improved version was able to discover isotopes-atoms of the same element with different atomic weights-in a large number of nonradioactive elements. Here his techniques led to the development of the mass spectrograph. Thomson’s last important experimental program focused on determining the nature of positively charged particles. His efforts to estimate the number of electrons in an atom from measurements of the scattering of light, X, beta, and gamma rays initiated the research trajectory along which his student Ernest Rutherford moved. In 1904 Thomson suggested a model of the atom as a sphere of positive matter in which electrons are positioned by electrostatic forces.

Will WiFi extenders and access points survive outdoors?Īs you may have anticipated, outdoors access points look very different than the indoors ones, well, with the exception of Ubiquiti APs, but we’ll talk more about that in a minute. And let’s not forget that you can’t beat SMB or enterprise-grade hardware. This way, you should be able to cover a few dozen feet (or more) outside your home without spending a fortune. So, the secondary access point will be positioned somewhere in the range of the first AP, but far enough as to broadcast its own signal without overlapping with the client devices inside the house. In the case of Ubiquiti, they call it Uplink (rightfully so). Ubiquiti, TP-Link, Netgear, EnGenius, Zyxel, all offer the possibility to use some form of the mesh technology. Then, make sure that the AP is positioned on the external walls. The beauty of this approach is that you get to power on the AP using PoE, so no need to use power cables. Connect the switch to the router and one access point to the Ethernet switch using a fairly long Ethernet cable. Get an inexpensive unmanaged PoE switch and a pair of Ubiquiti access points (you can choose the nanoHD if you prefer WiFi 5 or the U6-LR for the WiFi 6 standard). Like I already mentioned, I know you hate cables outdoors, but hear me out. That’s because you connect the access point via Ethernet cable (as well as a power cable, if necessary) and you get the full available bandwidth to serve your wireless clients. I think this is the best solution by far. Extend the WiFi range outdoors with access points You can take a step forward and go with WiFi 6E since it will open up an entire new frequency band, but this is more of an option in the future, when compatible client devices will be more widespread. I did a full analysis on whether WiFi 6 improves range and the conclusion is that it definitely can. That’s because the new WiFi standard is built to deal a lot better with interference and far-away client devices won’t slow down the network. What I would suggest if you’re willing to go this route is to use at least a dual-band WiFi extender and, if possible to try to upgrade your network and the main client devices to WiFi 6. And speaking from personal preference, I hate installing cables both indoors and outdoors. At the same time, I won’t deny the practicality of such a device where cables are difficult to install. That’s because the WiFi extenders need to communicate with the router, as well as with the clients back and fourth, so a lot of the available bandwidth is simply wasted. That being said, after setting up both the Mikrotik NetMetal ac2 and >the DrayTek VigorAP 920R, it became painfully obvious that the bandwidth was more than halved and the throughput wasn’t nearly as good as it would have been if these devices were operating in access point mode. After I did test the EAP610-Outdoors, I saw that it didn’t really support the Extender Mode, despite the initial claims from some retailers. I have dedicated an entire article for the best outdoor WiFi extenders and I am actually currently preparing to check the TP-Link EAP610-Outdoor to see how well it works as a WiFi extender.
Indexers with “BatchAdding” status on the Indexer Clustering dashboardīelow is a screenshot of some of the error messages seen in Splunk: No replication activities as seen on the Indexer Clustering Dashboard on the Cluster Master Most Splunk servers including search heads in red status Cluster Master in an unhealthy state – Replication and Search factor not met Messages indicating indexers being rejected from joining the cluster Messages indicating failed connection from Cluster Master to the Indexers There were multiple errors in Splunk that pointed to issues with the indexers: The master would not allow them back into the cluster. The datacenter issue was later determined to be a result of storage shortfalls and was resolved within 24 hours but once the datacenter was restored, however, we noticed the indexers failing to rejoin the cluster. This caused about half of the indexers to lose connection to the cluster master for several hours. In my situation, a partial datacenter outage had caused multiple appliances to fail and resulted in failed connections among the Splunk servers. Refer to Splunk docs if you are interested in learning more about what happens when a peer goes down.ĭepending on the reason for the disconnection, indexers in a cluster may go offline for a few minutes or hours. When a peer gets disconnected from the cluster master and the master does not receive a heartbeat after a set period, the master begins bucket fixing activities to ensure the defined replication factor is met so that the cluster remains in a healthy state. A peer could go offline intentionally by issuing the CLI offline command or unintentionally as in a server crashing or due to intermittent or recurring network issues in the environment. There are however situations in which a peer node could become disconnected from the cluster master. The cluster master is also responsible for managing the configuration of peer nodes, searching of peer nodes and remedial activities if a peer goes offline.Ī peer node will need to be connected to the cluster master and stay connected to receive instructions. These indexing and replication activities are coordinated by a cluster master. Each peer node indexes external data, stores them, and simultaneously sends and receives replicated data. In an indexer cluster environment, there can be two or more indexers also called peer nodes. First, indexers in a Splunk environment can be clustered or non-clustered. Indexers failing to rejoin the cluster can cause serious issues, but this blog will provide simple steps to help resolve the issue in your environment. Splunk Issue: Indexers Failing to Rejoin the Cluster (Solved) He, in turn, then had one of his dreams framed into existence. The rookie passer temporarily traded in his playbook for a blueprint and pitched in to make home ownership a reality for a Mooresville native named Joya and her family. Literally.Ĭoming together with Lowe’s for their Home Team initiative and Habitat Charlotte Region, Young went out to “tackle home” in the community. Young, fresh off his first taste of mandatory minicamp, spent the earlier hours of that particular Thursday helping build a house. Young-who has regularly been praised for his acuity, charm and poise-was as modest as advertised that afternoon, even after a hard day of work. It was that type of humility that shined through over the course of our one-on-one interview with the No. Young walks on stage after he was drafted first overall by the Panthers in the first round of the 2023 NFL Draft at Union Station. So you’d think, especially being a kid growing up in Cali during the height of Bryant’s powers, that Young would’ve pulled this out on his friends a time or two. Located just outside of Philadelphia, Lankenau also served as the birthplace of basketball icon and Los Angeles Lakers legend Kobe Bryant almost 23 years prior. Long before he was introduced to us as the new quarterback of the Carolina Panthers, Young was introduced to the world on Jat Lankenau Medical Center in Wynnewood, Pa. “That is a fun fact! Maybe I don’t use that enough, as much as I should.” I do have family in the Philly area, so I’ve always been proud to have been born there, and we go back there every once in a while to visit family. “Not necessarily,” the 21-year-old replied when asked if he ever touts that little detail. But to Bryce Young, it’s just another fun fact-one he doesn’t even bring up that often. Being born in the very same hospital as Kobe Bryant would be a major life event, or perhaps the peak for most people. Everything that happened was all Yusuke's fault. But when Yusuke dies it sets Autumn down a path that never would have happened if her brother hadn't died, hadn't awoken her powers by bringing spiritual energy near her, and certainly wouldn't have brought her into awareness of her soul mate.
