    Are you looking to relieve any physical or mental health conditions for which psilocybin has shown potential? Perhaps without the side effects commonly associated with many pharmaceuticals 
    Countless research and anecdotal reports have shown that psilocybin can help relieve numerous mental health disorders such as depression, anxiety, crippling fear, substance dependence, PTSD, and OCD, among others. And not only mental health conditions but also physical ailments such as migraines or cluster headaches, among others. Additionally, it has been used to noticeably improve your daily performance and general well-being. 
    But even with the outstanding benefits, little is known about microdosing psilocybin, and the information out there lacks accuracy and depth, making this venture harder than it should be… until now. 
    Microdosing Psilocybin Mushrooms is an all-inclusive, carefully researched, up-to-date, and beginner-friendly guide to everything there is to know about microdosing with psilocybin mushrooms. 
    Discover:The transformational power of psilocybin, its nature, and its influence on the human brainThe rich history of psilocybin mushrooms, dated back as far as you might have ever imaginedWhat to do to zero in on your optimal doseAll the therapeutic applications of psilocybinThe best microdosing protocolsPossible side effects and disqualified individualAnd much more! 
    It doesn’t matter whether you’ve tried microdosing mushrooms before and are looking to refine your knowledge or haven’t ever held them in your hand and want to learn more about this nascent topic; this guide will walk you through the whole process until you are psilocybin-versed!

    A Planet of Viruses - Third Edition

    In 2020, an invisible germ—a virus—wholly upended our lives. We're most familiar with the viruses that give us colds or Covid-19. But viruses also cause a vast range of other diseases, including one disorder that makes people sprout branch-like growths as if they were trees. Viruses have been a part of our lives for so long that we are actually part virus: the human genome contains more DNA from viruses than our own genes. Meanwhile, scientists are discovering viruses everywhere they look: in the soil, in the ocean, even in deep caves miles underground.Fully revised and updated, with a new chapter about coronaviruses and the spread of Covid-19, this third edition of Carl Zimmer's A Planet of Viruses pulls back the veil on this hidden world. It presents the latest research on how viruses hold sway over our lives and our biosphere, how viruses helped give rise to the first life-forms, how viruses are producing new diseases, how we can harness viruses for our own ends, and how viruses will continue to control our fate as long as life endures.

  • Power Distribution Unit (PDU) Secrets - What Everyone Who Works in a Data Center Needs to Know! - cover

    Power Distribution Unit (PDU)...

    Power Distribution Units (PDUs) – you mean power strips, right? That's what I thought when I was first introduced to this product. Boy oh boy was I wrong! Yes, the PDUs that are manufactured to be sold to the owners and operators of data centers do bear some similarities to the simple power strips that we all use at home. But we are really talking about two very different products here.
    
    What You'll Find Inside:
    POWER DISTRIBUTION UNITS (PDU): WHAT ARE THEY?
    WHY FUSES ARE BAD AND WHAT TO DO ABOUT IT
    WHAT THE WORLD OF FORMULA 1 AUTO RACING CAN TEACH DATA CENTER OPERATORS
    WHY DATA CENTER OPERATORS ARE SWITCHING TO USING HY-MAG
    
    How much money do you think that a data center operator has invested in just one of the racks of computers that sits in his or her data center? There is the cost of the rack, of course, but then there's the cost of each of the servers that has been plugged into that rack, the networking gear, and the power distribution system. Not to mention the overhead of cooling and power distribution to the rack. Very quickly the value of a single rack can reach US$500,000.
    
    Clearly it's in the best interests of the data center operator to know exactly what is going on with their investment. Questions that need to be answered include how much power is being used, if there is currently a fire, are there any hot spots, and whether there are any liquids in the area.
    
    The problem with today's modern data center is that all too often the answers to these questions are not available unless staff are sent out on to the data center floor with tools to make measurements. This means that a lot could go on when nobody was looking.
    
    Today's modern PDUs do so much more than just simply deliver power to the computers that have been plugged into a rack. They provide the "eyes and ears" that data center operators need in order to determine what is happening with their racks. Modern PDUs can support multiple types of sensors that can be used to piggy-back environmental information along with power usage information back to a central control system.
    
    Sophisticated Data Center Infrastructure Management (DCIM) software applications promise to be able to monitor all aspects of a data center. However, they are expensive and require an additional investment to both install and then maintain. The use of PDUs to collect needed data center status information provides a simple and low cost way to automate the monitoring of a modern data center.
    
    This book has been written to provide you with the information that you'll need in order to compare and contrast different types of PDUs. These sophisticated tools can be difficult to tell apart. This book will look at the features that you really needs and explain how you would use then in the real-world environment of a modern data center.
    
    It is my hope that after having read this book, you'll have the knowledge that you'll need to go out and select the type of PDU that best meets the needs of your business. Once you've done this, you can then implement a solution that will allow you to always know what is going on in your data center.
