text: Summershine - I'm sorry to hear your experience at Concept was so bad. I've been with them since the start of the year and I couldn't say one bad thing about them. I'm not sure who your FS was but mine is always on time and available to speak to whenever I need. I've had nothing but support from them and all of the people there. Speaking from my experience and other people I know who have been there I would recommend them.

Many people have tried to define the Internet of Things. But as a hardware or software engineer, you already know the essential element: to build interconnected products.
Embedded systems are already playing a crucial role in the development of the IoT. In broad strokes, there are four main components of an IoT system:
IoT systems are not complicated, but designing and building them can be a complex task. And even though new hardware and software is being developed for IoT systems, we already have all the tools we need today to start making the IoT a reality.
We can also separate the Internet of Things in two broad categories:
So to better understand how to build IoT devices, you first need to figure out how they will communicate with the rest of the world.
Your choice of communication technology directly affects your device's hardware requirements and costs. Which networking technology is the best choice? IoT devices are deployed in so many different ways — in clothing, houses, buildings, campuses, factories, and even in your body — that no single networking technology can fit all bills.
Let's take a factory as a typical case for an IoT system. A factory would need a large number of connected sensors and actuators scattered over a wide area, and a wireless technology would be the best fit.
A wireless sensor network (WSN) is a collection of distributed sensors that monitor physical or environmental conditions, such as temperature, sound, and pressure. Data from each sensor passes through the network node-to-node.
WSN nodes are low cost devices, so they can be deployed in high volume. They also operate at low power so that they can run on battery, or even use energy harvesting. A WSN node is an embedded system that typically performs a single function (such as measuring temperature or pressure, or turning on a light or a motor).
Energy harvesting is a new technology that derives energy from external sources (for example, solar power, thermal energy, wind energy, electromagnetic radiation, kinetic energy, and more). The energy is captured and stored for use by small, low-power wireless autonomous devices, like the nodes on a WSN.
A WSN edge node is a WSN node that includes Internet Protocol connectivity. It acts as a gateway between the WSN and the IP network. It can also perform local processing, provide local storage, and can have a user interface.
The battle over the preferred networking protocol is far from over. There are multiple candidates.
The first obvious networking technology candidate for an IoT device is Wi-Fi, because it is so ubiquitous. Certainly, Wi-Fi can be a good solution for many applications. Almost every house that has an Internet connection has a Wi-Fi router.
However, Wi-Fi needs a fair amount of power. There are myriad devices that can't afford that level of power: battery operated devices, for example, or sensors positioned in locations that are difficult to power from the grid.
Newer networking technologies are allowing for the development of low-cost, low-power solutions. These technologies support the creation of very large networks of very small intelligent devices. Currently, major R&D efforts include:
For example, EnOcean has patented an energy-harvesting wireless technology to meet the power consumption challenge. EnOcean's wireless transmitters work in the frequencies of 868 MHz for Europe and 315 MHz for North America. The transmission range is up to 30 meters in buildings and up to 300 meters outdoors.
One of the major IoT enablers is the IEEE 802.15.4 radio standard, released in 2003. Commercial radios meeting this standard provide the basis for low-power systems. This IEEE standard was extended and improved in 2006 and 2011 with the 15.4e and 15.4g amendments. Power consumption of commercial RF devices is now cut in half compared to only a few years ago, and we are expecting another 50% reduction with the next generation of devices.
Devices that take advantage of energy-harvesting must perform their tasks in the shortest time possible, which means that their transmitted messages must be as small as possible. This requirement has implications for protocol design. And it is one of the reasons why 6LoWPAN (short for IPv6 over Low power Wireless Personal Area Networks) has been adopted by ARM (Sensinode) and Cisco (ArchRock). 6LoWPAN provides encapsulation and header compression mechanisms that allow for briefer transmission times.

There are many wireless networks available that are specialized for various industries. The following is a brief list:
|Wireless M-Bus
|Wireless HART
|Zigbee and Zigbee IP
And there are many more.
At Micrium, we believe that any protocol that carries IP packets has an advantage over all others. The connectivity requirements for IoT devices are so diverse that a single technology cannot meet all the range, power, size and cost requirements. Nonetheless, we believe that 6LoWPAN will be the choice for WSNs and light IP-based protocols (see next section).
If your IoT network is local and M2M-only, then the wireless protocols discussed above are all good candidates. But if your goal is to remotely control devices or otherwise transmit data over the Internet, then you need IPv6.
The usefulness of IoT devices resides not only in local communication, but also in global communication. If at all possible, it is crucial that your IoT networks (LANs, PANs, and BANs) all make use of the suite of Internet Protocols (IP, UDP, TCP, SSL, HTTP, and so on). Furthermore, your networks must support Internet Protocol version 6, as the current IPv4 standard faces a global addressing shortage, as well as limited support for multicast, and poor global mobility.
IPv6's addressing scheme provides more addresses than there are grains of sand on earth — some have calculated that it could be as high as 1030 addresses per person (compare that number to the fact that there are 1028 atoms in a human body!). With IPv6, it is much simpler for an IoT device to obtain a global IP address, which enables efficient peer-to-peer communication.
The importance of IP to the Internet of Things does not automatically mean that non-IP networks are useless. It just means that non-IP networks require a gateway to reach the Internet.
Referring back to the illustration at the top of the page, you can see clearly that your local network is only one part of the Internet of Things. 6LowPAN, because it carries an IPv6 address with a compressed header, offers Internet connectivity without too much additional overhead. 6LoWPAN has also an advantage over other personal area networks, because peer-to-peer communication is simpler to implement when each device has a global address.

Old Man Winter is coming and he's not making cocoa by the fire. Go out and meet him head-on with the protection and warmth of the Castelli Free Jacket. Let him know that base miles are a must and that nothing he does will stop you from riding.
The Free Jacket was constructed from Windstopper X-Fast 2. This textile was developed by GORE in partnership with Castelli. The result is a windproof, water-resistant, and highly flexible fabric that sets this jacket apart from other winter jackets. Why? Windstopper X-Fast 2 combines the wind and rain protection of a jacket with the fit of a jersey.
Castelli has been pioneering cycling-specific clothing since its introduction of lycra shorts in the 1970's and it knows about fit. Rather than a bulky winter jacket, the Free Jacket was contoured to your body to seal out wind. Panels were cut on a curve so that they sit flat while you are in riding position. The arms were articulated forward, which reduces the amount of fabric bunching up near the elbows. To enhance fit, the side panels were cut from Thermoflex — a fleece backed stretch material that helps the jersey sit against your body without billowing out in the wind. Additionally, the panels provide extra breathability by wicking moisture to the surface to be evaporated. Thermoflex was also used on the flip-up collar and inside of the wrist cuffs to seal out cold air.
To stow your portables, the back features three deep, open pockets. The hem features a silicone grip and a slightly elongated back. The jacket lies against your winter tights without slipping and covers any gap between your waistband and jersey to seal out wind. Castelli also added reflective accents throughout the jacket to enhance your visibility in low-light conditions.
The Castelli Men's Free Jacket is available in six sizes from Small through XXX-Large and in the colors Orange/white, Deep blue/white, and Black/white.
|Castelli Free Jersey
I rode in this jacket for 35 minutes with a thin stoic wool base layer and CX spandex layer in 35 degrees Fahrenheit, but it was 5-10 colder with wind chill, and wind gusts. Fingers were cold but, Oh, was my body toasty, though not hot. The collar is comfortable as heck, back pockets are big but unobtrusive even with all my stuff in them. I had the black and also the orange. Kept the orange, love the orange, awesome color. Bet I could go 5 -10 colder with just a what I had on. Gotta get better gloves though. Sizing, I am 6'3, 230, muscle-y, 44xl jacket. The 3XL fits awesomely. Almost like a jersey but with space for thin layers. If you're thinking of getting it, do it.

One Year On: The Mavi Marmara Flotilla
It has been exactly one year since the Mavi Marmara flotilla and its tragic end, but great developments have happened in this year as well. The Rafah border is now open for Gazans, there is a unity deal between Fatah and Hamas, and the elite corruption has been revealed thanks to the Palestine Papers, which hopefully will force Palestinian politicians to become more accountable towards the public. However, Turkish-Israeli relations came to a halt due to the escalated crisis. Unfortunately, not only on a level of politics but also on the level of masses, there is anger on both sides. While Turkish society was mourning its 9 deaths, Israelis were condemning Turks for supporting the so-called terrorism. Not only pious Turks or Islamist have mourned for these people who were killed under the Israeli fire. Most of the public denounced the Israeli coercion, and piracy in the international waters. It seems as though international law has been violated countless times by Israel. It is ironic that the country with most UNSC resolution violations is Israel… followed by Turkey. The humanitarian aspect of the crisis was much more vociferously underlined. And now, after exactly one year, Turks were on the streets. It was impossible to count the crowd, yet it was probably as high as people protesting the internet bans two weeks ago.
My first impression was about how solid and organized the whole protest was. After just a few minutes, I could see why; there were volunteers from IHH, the humanitarian charity which organized the flotilla. They were wearing white vests and white hats, organizing people and lining them up. The protest was not chaotic at all. IHH has been notorious. It has been said that IHH was 'helping and assisting Islamic terrorism '. I don't think it is coincidental that all the fuss about IHH started right after the flotilla. IHH has been active for many years all around the world and not even once it was called 'terroristic' before the flotilla crisis. But, I guess terrorism and especially 'Islamic terrorism' is a great way to manipulate perceptions, especially after 9/11. Unfortunately, the masses organized under IHH that I saw today was somewhat indirectly supporting this argument about their nature. The masses were obviously very much anti-Zionist and anti-Israeli. Rather than mourning for 9 activists who were massacred, it was more of a 'we will take our revenge' protest going on. A slogan I remember was 'Muslims are supporting Hamas, shoot Israel! We are with you!'. Nobody seemed to discern Israeli state from its people. On the contrary, most of the slogans and chants were blurring the line between the state and people. Similarly, a week ago, an Israeli theatre company, Cameri, known for its pro-peace stance, had to cancel a play in Antalya. The reason was lack of security and planned protests against the company. Rather than trying to understand the other side of the conflict, it seems that Turks, especially Islamic activists, are distancing themselves from the other. Which means that the conflict will probably escalate for a while. This somewhat reminded me of the twisted mindset which argued; 'Palestinians voted for Hamas, Hamas kills Israeli civilians. Ergo, Gazan civilians are as guilty' when I was complaining about the excessive use of force and civilian deaths back in 2008 Gaza War. Is it really too much to ask for to separate truth from fiction when angry masses march.?
It is possible that there will be a new flotilla in the upcoming weeks. I don't even want to think about what is going to happen. The best case scenario: Israeli state will forcibly drag ships to the port of Ashdod and then send them back to where they come from. Maybe I'm drawing a bleak picture but I don't think its even possible for those activists to assist and give much needed materials to the Gazan people. I hope I'm wrong and I don't even want to talk about worse scenarios.
All in all, it was possible to see the hatred of people against the Israeli state today. It is unfortunate when nine activists are killed and tragedy turns to hate. Yet, it is crucial for the masses to live their sadness with dignity, without shedding blood or using force. Today, there were more protestors who came to 'become new martyrs' than people who came to mourn for their losses. I hope one day angry masses can also show the world that they have a right to mourn behind those who passed away. All in all, it was interesting to see once again that Turks are opening themselves to their close surrounding. Not only Islamic activists but I have witnessed many different groups empathizing with 'the other', and today was just one example.

Bush, of course, never envisioned that little more than three years later he would be unveiling a record red-ink budget that forecasts fiscal shortfalls throughout his presidency, even if he is re-elected in 2004. Because Bush barely mentioned the deficit in his State of the Union Address, it should not have been surprising that the president's budget reassuringly declares, "By all historical standards, these deficits are modest and manageable."
As a percentage of the gross domestic product, the Bush deficits are indeed analogous to the levels reached under Jimmy Carter, a president whom Republicans rarely cite as a model of economic stewardship. Even though Bush no longer resorts to porcine imagery to describe the federal government, it is likely that the president secretly relishes the notion that the deficit will curtail Democratic domestic spending plans for years to come. The message in the Bush budget is stark: There is no new money for anything other than defense, homeland security, tax cuts and a few cherished programs designed to pave the way to re-election.
The president's budget signals the triumph of Republican supply-side ideology, which believes that sparking economic growth through tax cuts trumps concern over green-eyeshade budget arithmetic. This is a battle that has been raging among Republicans since the late 1970s, when economist Arthur Laffer sparked the supply-side revolution by scrawling on a cocktail napkin a simple diagram claiming that government revenue increase when taxes are slashed.
Ronald Reagan came to power in 1980 as an ardent believer in Laffer's supply-side creed, though his vice president named George Bush had once attacked this gospel as "voodoo economics." But after the passage of his landmark 1981 tax cuts, Reagan governed as more of a traditional fiscal conservative, raising taxes to staunch the hemorrhaging deficit. Forbes, in his presidential crusades of 1996 and 2000, campaigned as a disciple of early Reaganism as he tried to rekindle the embers of supply-side economics.
Those embers are now a five-alarm blaze. The Bush budget trumpets the reigning faith of this administration: Deficits don't matter much. OK, the budget is a little more elliptical on this point, but the message is embedded in this important yes-but passage: "Limiting and reducing the federal debt remains a priority for this administration. But it is not the sole or even the top priority." Before Reagan, it would have been heresy for a Republican to suggest that balancing the budget was not a top government priority.
Forbes, a magazine publisher who championed a 17% "flat tax" on all income above a threshold amount, takes retrospective satisfaction in the direction of Bush's thinking.
"The green-eyeshade Republicans are now fighting a rear-guard battle," he said in a telephone interview Tuesday. He noted with pride that the administration is "taking a very slow boat to the flat tax — by getting rid of the death tax and the double tax on dividends."
Forbes quietly added, in words that underscore the lasting importance of issue-driven presidential campaigns, "Being an agitator can have some fulfilling moments."
Even as it embraces Forbes' permissive attitude toward deficits, the Bush budget erases the final legacy of another maverick self-funded presidential contender: Ross Perot. It is hard, more than a decade later, to conjure up the excitement that accompanied Perot's first entry into presidential politics in the spring of 1992 when he was running ahead of both President Bush and Bill Clinton in the national polls. This was the period when eager supporters held up homemade signs reading "Ross for Boss" and cheered Perot's bitter denunciations of federal deficit spending. As Perot put it back then, "The chief financial officer of a publicly owned corporation would be sent to prison if he kept books like our government."
With his chart-filled television advertorials, Perot galvanized the nation with his crusade for fiscal responsibility. And Clinton, already sensitized to the deficit issue by his primary challenge from Paul Tsongas, artfully responded by co-opting Perot's pet cause. It is simplistic to claim that Perot single-handedly turned Clinton into a deficit hawk (Treasury Secretary Robert Rubin deserves much of the credit), but the jug-eared billionaire helped create the political climate for the budget restraint of the 1990s. And there is a direct connection between Perot's independent candidacy and the budget surpluses that Clinton bequeathed to the nation as he left office.
How long ago the 2000 campaign now seems as Bush and Al Gore wrangled over what to do with the $5 trillion budget surplus projected for this decade. Now we are again confronted with that chilling economic specter from the 1980s: deficits as far as the eye can see.
