![]() ![]() So much so that Zinc Oxide also counts as a skin protectant and anti-irritant. It's also highly stable and non-irritating. It protects against UVB, UVA II, and UVA I almost uniformly, and is considered to be the broadest range sunscreen available today. The first main difference is that while TiO2 gives a nice broad spectrum protection, Zinc Oxide has an even nicer and even broader spectrum protection. It's definitely one of the best UV-filter agents we have today, especially in the US where new-generation Tinosorb filters are not (yet) approved. The English translation is, so far it looks like sunscreens with nanoparticles do stay on the surface of the skin where they should be.Īll in all, Titanium Dioxide is a famous sunscreen agent and for good reason, it gives broad spectrum UV protection (best at UVB and UVA II), it's highly stable, and it has a good safety profile. A 2009 review article about the safety of nanoparticles summarizes this, "to date, in-vivo and in-vitro studies have not demonstrated percutaneous penetration of nanosized particles in titanium dioxide and zinc oxide sunscreens". But do not panic, these are concerns under investigation. Once absorbed they might form unwanted complexes with proteins and they might promote the formation of evil free radicals. The main concern with nanoparticles is that they are so tiny that they are absorbed into the skin more than we want them (ideally sunscreen should remain on the surface of the skin). The itsy-bitsy Nano-sized particles improve both spreadability and reduce the whitish tint a lot, but unfortunately, it also introduces new health concerns. The cosmetic industry is, of course, really trying to solve this problem and the best solution so far is using nanoparticles. ![]() Sunscreens containing Titanium Dioxide are often hard to spread on the skin and they leave a disturbing whitish tint. The disadvantage of Titanium Dioxide is that it's not cosmetically elegant, meaning it's a white, "unspreadable" mess. Regular sized Titanium Dioxide also has a great safety profile, it's non-irritating and is pretty much free from any health concerns (like estrogenic effect worries with some chemical filters). Its protection is very good between 290 - 350 nm (UVB and UVA II range), and less good at 350-400 nm (UVA I) range. Anyway, it doesn't matter if it reflects or absorbs, Titanium Dioxide is a pretty awesome sunscreen agent for two main reasons: it gives a nice broad spectrum coverage and it's highly stable. ![]()

Outlook Web Access (OWA) is free to anyone, and like Gmail is to G Suite, it’s your ID for the rest of the Office ecosystem. Outlook is Microsoft’s business and organizational email, the equivalent of Gmail. Microsoft calls this their ‘A1’ plan: entirely free for faculty and students, it includes: There’s no limit to the number of users, and the plan includes Class and Staff notebooks, Professional Learning Community (PLC) groups, compliance solutions with a unified eDiscovery center, rights management, data loss prevention, and encryption. Users do get the desktop version of OneNote.

In this post we’ll be asking:īottom line up front: Microsoft 365 Education is totally free. It comes with Microsoft’s productivity suite with additional communication and collaboration applications. Microsoft (formerly Office) 365 for Education looks like a great deal. ![]() ![]() So which option is the best option for you and what are the differences between the two plans? Today I’ll take a look at both the monthly subscription plan and the one-time purchase option to help you make the best decision. There is also the newer subscription-based version, Microsoft Office 365. There’s the traditional Microsoft Office one time purchase that has been around for quite some time. There are two basic versions of Microsoft Office. Finally, both Microsoft 365 and Office 2021 require a Microsoft account.Microsoft Office has been a longstanding staple in homes and workplaces for years. It has become a go-to productivity tool used by millions of workers. Windows 11 won’t play friendly with Office 2013, so any such users who plan to jump to the latest version of Windows will need to upgrade the Office suite. Microsoft 365 and Office 2021 both run on Windows 11, Windows 10 and the three most recent versions of macOS. Plus, the suite is getting a visual redesign with a more neutral color palette, softer window corners, refreshed tabs in the ribbon, and colorful indicators to let you know who’s collaborating on a document with you. Other Microsoft 365 features that have been added to Office 2021 include more stock media images, an updated draw tab, a language translator in Outlook, an instant search in Outlook, and dynamic arrays in Excel. The company has been promoting Teams lately as the chat and conferencing tool is also built into Windows 11. One such feature is Microsoft Teams, which lets you chat and make audio or video calls with other people. To attract customers to Office 2021, Microsoft is including many of the programs and features typically available for Microsoft 365. In contrast, Office 2021 kicks in just 5GB of OneDrive space, though you can upgrade to 100GB for $1.99 per month. ![]() The subscription-based Microsoft 365 offers 1TB of OneDrive storage per user. Microsoft provides OneDrive to let you store, back up, and synchronize your documents online. SEE: Windows 365 Business: How this new tool can help your organization (TechRepublic) But some people don’t want to be forced into such a subscription, so the company realizes it must continue to offer a one-time purchase version, lest users take their business elsewhere. Naturally, Microsoft would prefer that customers gravitate to the subscription-based edition of Office as that locks in users for the longer haul and ensures a steady stream of income. Microsoft 365 is the subscription-based flavor of Office that pushes you into an annual subscription but ensures that you get the latest features when they roll out. So if you purchased Office 2019 and want to jump to Office 2021, you’ll have to shell out the money for a new license. Office 2021 is the one-time purchase edition that grants you a perpetual license but doesn’t offer a free upgrade to each new version. Microsoft sells Office in two different flavors. Both versions of Office 2021 will be up for sale from Microsoft’s website as well as other retailers around the world. Support for these Microsoft enterprise products ends in 2023ĭesigned for students and family users, Office Home and Student 2021 is outfitted with Word, Excel, PowerPoint, OneNote and Microsoft Teams for Windows or macOS and will cost $150.Īimed at the business crowd, Office Home and Business 2021 includes all the programs in the Home and Student edition but adds Outlook for Windows or macOS and will cost $150.

Microsoft reveals pricing and other details for Office 2021 ![]() ![]() ![]() It's important to choose the one that you think will work the best for you. Some orient themselves differently on the wall. Some have small ridges that add friction into the system. Each one has different features and is made of different materials. There are a multitude of belay devices on the market. Even though it seems like the device might be holding the entire weight of the climber it is still important that you always have your hand on the brake strand of the rope when belaying. When the GRIGRI is weighted, friction locks up the cam and pinches the brake strand of the rope. This is a fully assisted auto-locking belay device with a moving cam. A good example of this is the GRIGRI from Petzl. The last style is the auto-locking belay device. These are often lightweight and relatively inexpensive. ![]() The shape of these devices is designed in such a way that when placed under weight they lock the rope and can then released by tilting the device upwards. These include the Mammut Smart, the Edelrid Jul 2, and the Edelrid Megajul. This style of belay device works on the same friction principles as the standard tuber but incorporates some form of assisted locking feature. If you're going to be rappelling you'll want a device that has two tubes, one for either strand of the rope so that you can rappel safely. These are utilized during multi-pitch climbs. These devices are going to have an extra loop on either side so that you can hang the device from the wall and belay in guide mode. This includes belay devices like the ATC Guide and the Petzl Reverso 4. One step up, in this same category, are devices that can be configured for guide mode. These are generally the most affordable belay devices and start at around $18.00. They do a great job assisting by adding friction into the system that allows you to safely catch and lower your climber. The second hole is utilized while rappelling. ![]() These devices are typically going to have two holes, although you'll only use one when belaying a lead climber on top rope. ![]() Once the first person down has noted friction problems, they should provide the support of a "fireman's belay" to subsequent party members.SHOP BELAY DEVICES How to choose the belay device that's right for you.īelay devices are necessary for all styles of rock climbing, but the type of belay device that you need is going to differ depending on where you're climbing and the type of climbing that you're doing, be it in the gym, outdoors, or multi-pitch.īelay devices can basically be broken down into three major categories.Ī standard tuber device which has one or two holes for the rope to run through, an assisted locking tuber which has an integrated mechanism to create friction on the rope and assist in the breaking, and a fully assisted locking device that's going to have some variation of moving cam, that's friction based, and will help lock up the rope.Ī standard tuber device is going to be something like your basic ATC from Black Diamond or the Wild Country Pro Light. Or you can take a half-turn of the break strand around your thigh, but this is more painful and more awkward as well. You can pass the break strand around behind your back and so essentially add a waist belay to the process of creating rappel friction. Of course, there are also some more primitive ways to increase friction during the rappel. If the prussik is on the harness belay loop, it won't interfere with the rigging steps. A disadvantage is that it can be hard to rig this if your backup prussik is mounted low down on the leg loop (where it shouldn't be anyway with the extended device method). This will give lots more friction.Īn advantage of the mid-rappel installation is you can begin the rappel without extra friction, benefiting from the rope weight, and later increase the friction substantially when there is less of an assist from rope weight. Finally, with an extended device, you can (if necessary in mid-rappel) increase friction substantially with the following trick requiring two free carabiners:Ĭlip Carabiner #1 to the tether loop that holds your belay device, and clip Carabiner #2 to your harness belay loop.Ĭlip the brake strand through Carabiner #2 and then up to and through Carabiner #1 (and then of course back down to your brake hand). Rapping with an extended device also makes it more comfortable to use both hands for braking. Don't know if you do this already, but extending your device (rather than clipping it directly to the harness belay loop) gives you extra friction, because you get closer to a 180 degree bend in the brake strand as it exits the device. ![]() ![]()
