The h-node project aims at the construction of a hardware database in order to identify what devices work with a fully free operating system. The h-node.org website is structured like a wiki in which all the users can modify or insert new contents. The h-node project is developed in collaboration and as an activity of the FSF.

zero waste lifestyle
Zero Waste is a philosophy and a design principle for the 21st Century. It includes 'recycling' but goes beyond recycling by taking a 'whole system' approach to the vast flow of resources and waste through human society.
Zero Waste maximizes recycling, minimizes waste, reduces consumption and ensures that products are made to be reused, repaired or recycled back into nature or the marketplace.

World's Cheapest Energy Source Will Be Renewables Within Three Years
Renewable energy is simply becoming the cheapest option, fast... "We project that by 2020, renewables will be the cheapest form of new-power generation across the globe," with the exception of a few countries in Southeast Asia, the Morgan Stanley analysts said in a report published Thursday... Globally, the price of solar panels has fallen 50% between 2016 and 2017, they write. And in countries with favorable wind conditions, the costs associated with wind power "can be as low as one-half to one-third that of coal- or natural gas-fired power plants." Innovations in wind-turbine design are allowing for ever-longer wind blades; that boost in efficiency will also increase power output from the wind sector, according to Morgan Stanley.

Os diferentes tipos de cerveja
Lagers
As Lagers são as cervejas mais consumidas no Mundo. Originárias da Europa Central no século 14, são cervejas de baixa fermentação ou fermentação a frio (de 6 a 12ºC), com graduação alcoólica geralmente entre 4% e 5%. Tem entre seus tipos mais conhecidos a Pilsener, tipo de cerveja originariamente criada no século 19 na cidade de Pilsen, região da Boémia da República Checa, e que por isso muitas vezes é chamada de Pilsen ou Pils ao invés de Pilsener.
Os subtipos de Lager estão a seguir:
PALE LAGERS: Lagers claras, as mais comuns.
- Pils - a Pale Lager original. São caracterizadas por um lúpulo acentuado no aroma e sabor. Também chamadas de Pilsener e Pilsen (2). Podem aparecer em 2 estilos um pouco diferentes, principalmente devido à escola: Bohemian/Czech Pilsner (2B), representada pela Pilsener Urquell e Budweiser Budvar/Czechvar, ambas Checas e meio difíceis de encontrar; German Pilsner , facilmente encontradas nas representantes Bitburger, König Pilsener, Wernesgrüner ou Spaten Pils.
- American lager - cerveja leve e refrescante, feita para matar a sede e para serem bebidas bem geladas. É o tipo das cervejas mais populares dos Estados Unidos (1B), com exemplos como Budweiser, Coors e a australiana Foster's. A maioria das cervejas populares no Brasil, como Brahma, Skol, Kaiser e Antarctica, são American Lagers, mesmo que elas se intitulem no rótulo e descrição no verso como Pilsen, talvez até devido a convenção nacional para a classificação de cervejas.
- Lite- variação ainda mais leve que a American Lager, oferecida muitas vezes sob o nome Light ou Lite.
- Dortmunder Export - variação da Pilsener com menos lúpulo, mais suave, feita em Dortmund em 1873.
- Helles- outra variação com menos lúpulo, mais maltada, feita em Munique. Marcas conhecidas são Löwenbräu Original, Spaten Premium Lager, Weihenstephaner Original e Hofbräu München Original.
- Dry Beer - originária do Japão, tem a maior parte do açúcar convertido em álcool devido ao longo período de fermentação. Por isso e por seu sabor suave é denominada dry.
- Special- um tipo mais forte e encorpado, Fica entre a Helles e a Bock em termos de sabor e força.
- Radler- qualquer Pale Lager misturada com uma limonada típica alemã, chamada de Zitronenlimonade. Geralmente a proporção cerveja/sumo é de 50/50 ou 60/40.

6 Party Drugs That May Have Health Benefits
"The use of illegal drugs for medicinal reasons is a controversial topic, even as more states and jurisdictions allow the use of medical marijuana and other substances every year.
And self-medicating — using drugs without the assistance of a doctor or other medical professional — can be dangerous. "Potential risks of self-medication practices include incorrect self-diagnosis, delays in seeking medical advice … incorrect dosage, incorrect choice of therapy, masking of a severe disease, and risk of dependence and abuse," wrote the authors of a 2010 article published in the journal Current Drug Safety.
Because of these risks, doctors strongly advise against the unregulated use of illicit drugs, which can do more harm than good. Nonetheless, medical researchers continue to find a surprising number of health benefits in drugs widely used for recreational purposes. [Image Gallery: 7 Potent Medicinal Plants]
