About Us

NewGen Surgical was started in 2012 with a vision that we could design quality single-use medical devices with sustainable materials.

With a growing concern about climate change and environmental pollution, we made it our mission — and our business — to redesign single-use plastic medical devices. After years of working with nurses, O.R. staff and physicians in the operating room we could see this concern was one we all shared. We asked ourselves if these single-use disposable plastic products could be made with sustainable materials and deliver excellent clinical performance. And if sustainable materials could not be used and achieve clinical performance and efficacy, could the product be reimagined using a circular economy model?

Our Mission

Our mission is to help our customers deliver quality and cost effective care while at the same time preserving and protecting the foundation of all health – a healthy environment. We do this by offering products that are more sustainable and that will reduce energy, non-renewable resource use and plastic pollution. Our goal is to reduce or eliminate single-use disposable plastic products in the O.R. – by replacing them with products made with sustainable materials.

We’re committed to redesigning single-use plastic medical devices and surgical products that will:

  • Eliminate chemicals of concern and toxicity
  • Reduce energy and use of nonrenewable resources
  • Reduce the amount of plastic produced, used and discarded
  • Reduce and/or eliminate waste going to landfill or incineration
  • Reduce costs for the hospital

Smart Sustainable Design™

Our development process begins with a thorough understanding of the clinical performance doctors, nurses and healthcare professionals expect from a medical device. By rethinking, redesigning and reimagining a surgical product used every day in the operating room, we can use sustainable material to reduce or eliminate plastic waste – and still deliver clinical performance at a price that brings value to our customers.

Our first product – the NGS35W Skin Stapler – is a good example of our design process. We spent over two years designing around sustainable materials, with a focus on clinical performance and supply chain consideration, to deliver economic value to our customers and a significant reduction in plastic waste.

“Much like the healthcare industry’s emphasis treating root cause by focusing on wellness and prevention for people, NewGen Surgical is doing the same. By examining and redesigning products with more sustainable materials on the front end, we achieve a source reduction of plastic used and a reduction of end-of-life plastic pollution in the environment,” said Rob Chase, Founder and President.

Naturopathic Doctor in New Glasgow

Naturopathic Doctor in New Glasgow - A health consultant who apply pure and holistic applications in helping the human body to utilize its full power and hence heal itself is called a naturopath. A naturopath typically offers complementary medicine instead of primary care, though this is not always the case. A naturopath may select to recommend the patient to see some other practitioner as a way to treat certain troubles. As law varies around the globe, the exact certifications and qualifications of a naturopath differ widely.

The foremost theory surrounding Naturopathy is that the body is capable of naturally stabilizing itself. To assist achieve a balanced state of well being, a naturopath depends on numerous therapies starting from the use of homeopathic and herbal treatments, massage therapy, counseling and other physical therapies. As in various other option medical treatments, naturopathy focuses deeply on reaching the root cause of the issue as a substitute of treating the signs and symptoms alone. The aim is for the naturopath and the patient to work together like a group and to treat the patient's body holistically. There's usually a significant focus on preventive medication and lifestyle changes.

Multiple naturopaths consider they are empowering their patients rather than just treating them. Providing tutoring on ways to enhance strength and well being such as nutritional and life counseling might be among the many treatments offered. A naturopath could offer herbal remedies plus homeopathy as well as discuss suggestions for reducing pressures, and enhancing sleep patterns. Some could even be educated and able to provide acupuncture. Traditional medication and surgery aren't offered by a naturopath, although if the affected person needs these services, a reputable naturopath will be capable to successfully guide the patient to a medical physician.

Around 1800s, several American doctors started to consider alternative medical remedies after they had misplaced faith in the medical establishment, thus the roots of naturopathy were born. The yr 1900s saw the 1st school created for the study of naturopathy, and many college students continue to peak curiosity, until the 1940s. Once mainstream medicine developed artificial medication and anti-biotics, the amount of sufferers visiting naturopathic medical centers started to decline. There are still many individuals who see the worth in "natural medicine" and patients around the world continue to go to naturopaths today.

Patients who're curious or interested in visiting a naturopath could find it useful to investigate regulations in their region. Before someone pays a visit, it's best to interview any care provider to find out if the individual qualifications and philosophy meets their criteria. In certain instances, a naturopath might be a fully board licensed physician with an attention to normal remedies. They might also belong to a trade association that monitors practicing naturopaths, whilst in other instances a naturopath might be a more conventional alternative care provider.

Argentinian researchers aim to improve use of agrochemicals through nanotechnologyqrcode

Jul. 31, 2019

Jul. 31, 2019
A group of innovators in agricultural technology developed a nanotechnology proposal that will enable agricultural producers to use fewer agrochemicals without compromising on the food security of their crops, as well as reduce environmental damage, stated the Government Secretariat of Science, Technology and Productive Innovation.
The project, which is based in the Miguelete campus of the National University of San Martín (Unsam) and managed by Nanótica Agro, involves the use of nanotechnology for applying herbicides, insecticides, fungicides and fertilizers, through the use of capsules that have similar membranes to plants.
Through this method, doses of agrochemicals can be more effectively controlled, decreasing the amount of product normally absorbed or contaminating the soil.
"We will provide producers with a nanotizing machine and empty capsules, so they can nanoencapsulate the agrochemicals of their choice before use," said Julio Laurenza, one of the project managers of Nanótica Agro.
"Nanotized particles penetrate plant cells and tissue more effectively than traditional particles, due to its nano size, which is in the order of one millionth of a millimeter. That is why our technology will enhance the effectiveness of agrochemicals, even in lower doses than recommended," he added.
"By optimizing the effectiveness of agrochemicals, this technology lowers costs, because it lowers required doses. So, if a producer spends 30 dollars per hectare, the subsequent cost will be around 10 dollars less under the same conditions," explained Matías Badano, another member of the project.
The kit, which is still in prototype stage, is expected to enter the market in the middle of 2021.

Diego Garcia: remembering paradise lost
The pictures are monochrome but the memories are colourful
By the BBC's Andrew Bomford

His voice is low and deep and his eyes are closed as he sings of his homeland.

The beat of the four ravannes - African drums - is infectious. Jean Redi Bancoult's arm is raised and he points to the middle distance.

His thoughts are not here, in this dusty backyard amid makeshift buildings in Cassis - one of the poorer neighbourhoods of Port Louis, the Mauritian capital.

His thoughts are 1,200 miles away, on a group of small islands in the Indian Ocean - a place young Jean has never seen.

He sings in Creole. He sings of the islands of Peros Banhos and Salomon, part of the Chagos archipelago, which was leased to the US to allow for the development of the huge Diego Garcia military base.

The song speaks of long nights drinking the local brew, baka, and dancing the sega. A certain rhythm has come from Chagos, it says.
Adeline Jaffor
Refugee Adeline Jaffor with her family outside their shack
There is a certain rhythm for the Ilois - the islanders - as they call themselves, but for 30 years now the rhythm, more often than not, is one of despair.

For all this time the Ilois have been banned from their homeland, expelled in an act of late colonial arrogance breathtaking in its execution.

Not settled well

The sad history of the Chagos islands is what brought me to Mauritius, and the knowledge that this mostly forgotten story is being exhumed in the High Court of London this week, as the islanders bring a unique legal case against the British Government, to fight for the right to return to their homeland.

The Ilois have not settled well in Mauritius. That much is plain to see. Now numbering about 5,000 people, they are scattered in slums around Port Louis.

Their young people - those born in Mauritius - are discriminated against. They find it hard to get work. Their parents and grandparents, those born in the Chagos islands, are like fish out of water.

They are uneducated, they have not adapted to metropolitan life. They spend their days dreaming of their paradise lost.

The young singer Jean's uncle, Olivier Bancoult, is the man bringing the court case.
Mr Todd talks to the islanders
The British administrator breaks the news to the islanders
Inside his tiny house, he stands in front of a Nelson Mandela poster, and smiles - his inspiration, he says.

Olivier was four when he was first brought to Mauritius on what his family thought was a temporary break.

I remember my mother crying, he tells me, when we were told we could not go home.

'It is not fair'

He pauses, and then you see in his eyes the steel that has brought this poor electrician to take on the might of the British Government.

It still makes me very sad now, he says, the way my people have been uprooted is not fair.

This origins of this uprooting are mired in Cold War politics and superpower angst.

In 1965, when Mauritius was negotiating its independence from Britain, the then Prime Minister Harold Wilson made it clear there would be no deal without the Chagos islands being separated from Mauritius, and retained by Britain.

The islands were of great strategic significance - situated right in the middle of the Indian Ocean - they were in the heart of an area prized by the then Soviet Union and China.

What Mauritius did not know was that Britain had already done a deal with the United States - they would lease the largest island, Diego Garcia, for use as an air base and ship refuelling station.

But the Americans did not want a "population problem", as they put it.

There were about two thousand people living on the islands, mostly working in the coconut plantations. Descendants of African slaves and Indian plantation workers, the Chagos islanders had lived there for generations.
Seewoosankar Mandary

So Britain began a systematic, but highly secret, programme of resettlement.

No return

Families were accustomed to taking periodic trips to Mauritius by the only boat available.

Once there, they - like Oliviers' family - found a return passage was refused to them.

This policy continued for several years, until the programme was stepped up. The plantations were closed down, food supplies ended, and then in 1970, the people on Diego Garcia were called together and told they would have to leave.

Seewoosankar Mandary remembers that day well. He was working on the small weather station on the island, and took some photographs of the moment the people were told by the British administrator they were being evicted.

"He told the people there will be changes in the way the place is run. In a few weeks time you will not be able to stay. The military will come and you will have to go," Mr Mandary remembered.

All this was only revealed in 1975, through a United States congressional inquiry into the Diego Garcia military base.

But even then, the British government tried to cover it up. They claimed the Illois had no right to live on the islands, and said they were just temporary contract workers from Mauritius and the Seychelles.

In fact, declassified Foreign Office documents discovered at the Public Records Office in London reveal the policy of deception.

One memo, dated 28 July 1965 says: "A small number of people were born there and, in some cases, their parents were born there too. The intention is, however, that none of them should be regarded as being permanent inhabitants of the islands."

The court case being heard in London this week is an undoubted embarrassment to the British Government, and they have just revealed they have begun a feasibility study into whether the Ilois could return to some of the Chagos Islands, despite the continued presence of the American base on Diego Garcia.

Unsupecting islanders were taken away in boats

A Foreign Office statement released to the BBC says: "The government wants to be as practical and positive as we can. We are taking the advice of consultants to assess whether people could return to the outer islands and what the environmental impact would be."

A generation later, and life has improved for most of the Ilois, but not by much.

I watched one lady, Adeline Jaffor, speak at a so-called grand assembly of the islanders as they organised their legal fight.

She spoke with eloquence and great passion about the plight of their people.

Afterwards she took me to her home and I began to see why. She showed me the broken corrugated iron walls and roof, the holes where the rain pours in.

She showed me the two beds where she and her ten children and grandchildren sleep.

Adeline is a widow, and she works a cleaner in the central market. "I'm really angry," she said, "Over there we had a good life, we lived together happily. But we have none of that here. I'm very very angry. I want to go home."

Internet user admits 'web-rage'
The pair met in an online chatroom
An internet user has been found guilty of what police said was Britain's first "web-rage" attack.

Paul Gibbons, 47, tracked down John Jones using details obtained online after the pair exchanged insults in an internet chatroom, a court heard.

He travelled 70 miles to Mr Jones' home in Clacton, Essex, and beat him up with a pickaxe handle in December 2005.

Gibbons, of Southwark, south London, admitted unlawful wounding and will be sentenced on 7 November.

Threatening exchanges

The pair met in an internet chatroom called Yahoo, Islam 10 as both had an interest in the Muslim faith, the Old Bailey was told.

Their exchanges soured after Gibbons accused Mr Jones of spreading rumours about him.

This is the first instance of a web-rage attack
Det Cons Christopher Creagh

"There was an exchange of views between the victim and the defendant which were threatening on both sides," said prosecutor Ibitayo Adebayo.

Gibbons, a man with a violent past, traced Mr Jones to his home using personal details about himself that he had put online.

Cut with a knife

Gibbons arrived at Mr Jones' home armed and accompanied by another man carrying a machete, the court heard.

Mr Jones, whose partner and three children were in the house, opened the door holding a knife for protection, said Mr Adebayo.

A fight broke out during which Mr Jones was disarmed and beaten with the pickaxe handle and cut with the knife.

Gibbons fled after the victim's partner called for help. Mr Jones suffered cuts to his head, neck and hands.

Identity safety

Det Cons Christopher Creagh, of the Metropolitan Police, said: "This is the first instance of a web-rage attack."

Det Sgt Jean-Marc Bazzoni, of Essex Police, added the case demonstrates the importance of protecting one's identity on the internet.

"Mr Jones had posted pictures of his family on the web and had chatted to Gibbons on an audio link," he said.

"It demonstrates how easily other users can put two and two together and also shows how children could also find themselves in danger."

Numurkah hosts Australasian Go Kart titles

By Madeleine Byron

Numurkah locals were in for a double celebration at the weekend with the town hosting the 30th Australasian Go Kart Titles and Goulburn Valley Kart Club’s 60th anniversary.

More than 160 drivers took part in the two-day championship which featured 13 classes of racing.

Club treasurer Brent Opie said entries had increased from 115 last year.

“We’ve just resurfaced the top corner which has brought a lot of the drivers, which is good to see,” Mr Opie said.

He said the weekend was family-friendly and included camping and socialising while off the track.

“Some people race every second weekend all over Victoria, so camping keeps the costs down and people can catch up with friends they haven’t seen since the last race meeting,” Mr Opie said.

Saturday's qualifiers included Herman Van Ree in Victorian Combined Masters; Ethan Warren, Victorian Combined Light; Mathew Basso, Cadet 9; Liam Ford, Tag Light; Peter Cocca, Tag 125 Masters; and Jarred Farrell, KA4 Junior Light.

UN experts fear Myanmar tortures suspects held incommunicado

Asia World

GENEVA: Myanmar is holding insurgent suspects incommunicado in a practice that may be covering up torture, UN human rights experts said on Tuesday (Sep 3).

Myanmar’s human rights record has been under international scrutiny since a 2017 army-led campaign forced more than 730,000 Rohingya Muslims into neighbouring Bangladesh. The army has said they were targeting terrorists, but the United Nations has said the campaign was executed with “genocidal intent”.

Since late 2018, government troops have been battling the Arakan Army, an ethnic armed group that recruits from Rakhine state, where Buddhists make up the majority.

The three UN experts – Yanghee Lee, Agnes Callamard and Nils Melzer – said they had grave concerns about the army’s use of incommunicado detention in the recent conflict, as well as allegations of torture, ill-treatment and deaths in custody.

“The practice of incommunicado detention must be immediately brought to an end,” said the experts, who report to the UN Human Rights Council on Myanmar, extrajudicial executions and torture respectively.

“It is essential for detained people to be able to communicate with the outside world, especially with family members and their lawyer. We are especially concerned because incommunicado detention may facilitate torture.”

Two Myanmar military spokesmen, one government spokesman and Myanmar’s mission in Geneva did not immediately respond to calls seeking comment on the report.

The UN statement said the rights experts had reports of at least 15 deaths in custody of men alleged to be linked to the Arakan Army, and called on the army to make public the results of its investigation and hold anyone responsible to account.

They cited several cases of Rakhine men and boys being charged with terrorism offences and held incommunicado, including that of Naing Aung Htun, who was rounded up with about 50 others on Aug 8.

The statement said he was held in incommunicado detention from until Aug 21 and allegedly given electric shocks by soldiers, after which he confessed to having ties to the Arakan Army.

His father said he had been tortured, leaving him with injuries to his face, unable to chew, and suffering headaches and pain in his chest and back, the statement said.

Letting go

One of the hardest things about being a parent must be giving up the constant supervision of your children and trusting them to make their own decisions - hopefully sensible and intelligent ones.

When you've been keeping an eye on your children 24 hours a day since they were born, it must be quite a wrench to be less vigilant and stop constantly checking up on them.

I'm reminded of this by yet another teenager dying of a suspected drugs overdose at the Leeds music festival. The 17 year old girl had taken not just one drug but a whole cocktail of drugs. She trusted whoever gave them to her and assumed they weren't dangerous.

And every so often kids decide it would be hilarious to wreck the local children's playground or daub graffiti on the wall of the parish church.

At some point a parent has to allow their child to go out on their own and be responsible for their own actions. You have to make a judgment as to whether they'll be safe or whether they'll get into some kind of trouble - drug abuse, sexual harassment, a car accident, shoplifting.

I imagine the farther your child goes, and the longer they're away, the more nervous you get. If they're backpacking in Australia for two months, for example. Or maybe it makes no difference.

Of course at a certain age a child is legally entitled to do whatever they want and their parents can no longer stand in the way.

When I was a teenager I generally made sensible decisions, but not always. I remember driving my girlfriend home once when I was very drunk, as people did in those days. Luckily I didn't have an accident.

Just let go, they say. Easier said than done.

  1. My late mother was responsible for pushing her three sons out of the home as soon as they finished high school but, she waited for the right moment to return full time to all their homes as well as her daughter's home when finally she quit on her marriage to my late father. She never regretted having let us go because she knew that she would have them back in her life soon enough.

    All my siblings have had problems letting their children go and keep visiting them to be with the grandchildren or expect the children to visit them. I have been lucky. We did find it difficult when our son went to boarding school and then subsequently overseas to be part of our diaspora but, since his return has been at home with me. Now it is too late for him to go anywhere.

  2. We never had that problem. We never watched Kaitlin 24 hours a day, but we worked together as a family up on the land on weekends and some week nights in the summer. We grew fruit trees and gardens and built sheds, barb wire fences, even a small tractor from a kit. She lost all of her friends in the 8th grade because they went on drugs and she wouldn't. No, we never worried about her.

    The neat thing is she still loves the land, and Torben does too. The greenhouse was their idea because they think they might end up retiring there.

  3. It IS tough to let go of kids and let them make their own decisions. But you have to. I can't tell you how many times I've bitten my tongue!

  4. Ramana: It's probably harder for parents to let go of their children if they're at a loose end and don't have other things to busy themselves with.

    Jean: It sounds like Kaitlin is a thoroughly sensible person you never needed to worry about. Good for her resisting the drugs culture.

  5. Agent: I bet you had to bite your tongue on many occasions. When children are determined to go their own way, parental advice is so much hot air.

  6. I was so relived when our daughter married because then I could let go--I no longer felt responsible for her decisions. I now love being able to say to her, "I'm sure whatever decision you make will be right for you." Are they the decisions I wish she'd make--no. But it's her life not mine.

  7. Linda: That's an aspect of marriage I hadn't thought about - that the parents can "hand over" their child to someone else. And yes, however tempted you might be to interfere, her decisions are her own concern.

  8. It's more of a gradual process. Honestly, the dumbest decisions my kids ever made were things that never crossed my mind to warn them about.

  9. I don't have kids, but it's bad enough with cats and dogs!!

  10. Bijoux: Kids will always find something totally unexpected to get the wind up their parents!

    Ms Scarlet: It's certainly worrisome when a cat is wandering about on its own. One of our neighbours has a 16½ year old cat that's stone deaf and can't hear cars coming....

  11. I think the most important thing of all is to let them make their own mistakes, otherwise, how can they ever learn?

    Also to let the doors be open for non-judgmental conversations. People, including kids, are never, ever looking for advice. They want to hear your experiences, sharing from the heart. I truly believe this is why I have an 18YO friend and many more. I never give her advice but I do share my life with her when she asks. Lectures are so off-putting. My father lectured incessantly but never shared.

    But tell me your story and I'm all yours.

  12. www: Yes, sharing your own experience has to be more welcome than well-meaning advice or lectures. Who takes any notice of someone who's just pontificating?

  13. For me, the fear of interfering has forced me to let go but I see things that could be problematic and live with my heart in my mouth because Seeing them hurt can be hellish

  14. Kylie: I'm sure you must have had your heart in your mouth hundreds of times. Hopefully nothing too disastrous ever happened.

Traincontroller Windows

Traincontroller allows a lot of different kinds of windows. It is up to the user to decide how to use them and how to lay them out on screen. Some people have one monitor, shared among all uses; others have several monitors to make sense of the railway. traincontroller 7 has allowed much better control over window layout that previous version; windows can be tabbed within a "main window" or can float and overlap others. Some of the windows you will come across include:

All TC controlled railways have a diagram of the layout known as a switchboard. The switchboard is fixed size - it can't be "zoomed". Getting the size of this right will determine how the rest of the windows can be displayed! The switchboard shows the following:

  • The position of all points;
  • Whether occupancy detectors are occupied or not;
  • Whether blocks are occupied;
  • Which train is in a block, and its orientation;
  • Whether a block can be entered or exited by trains;
  • Whether a train can proceed (by indicating a signal).

A switchboard can also have control elements e.g. "pushbuttons" and "toggle switches". These can be used to control aspects of operation. It may be appropriate to put these on a separate switchboard.

The Dispatcherwindow is used in the schedule display. This is normally auto-generated from a switchboard and shows the blocks in less detail. It is used to highlight the blocks in use by a schedule. It can be zoomed in and out, unlike the switchboard.

The Engines & Trains window shows information about all of the engines & trains available. It shows which blocks they are in, and the speed they are running at. This is useful to diagnose why a train has stopped, for example: if it is stopped by this window shows a speed, suspect a problem with the model (e.g. poor pickups).

The Messages window provides feedback about what the program is doing, and critically what it is not doing. If a train won't start on a schedule, this window can provide clues as to why.

Limit application CPU usage in Mac

This problem occurred to me when I was contributing with Folding@Home project of Stanford University. Their application (also known as fahclient) was using all my computers CPU and the temperature of my Mac’s graphic card was around 89 degrees centigrade. So I tried to limit the CPU usage of this application within it’s preferences menu, but it was not working at all, so I searched Internet and I found that this is a common problem an the solution was not that well-known ! So in this post I’m going to describe how to limit application CPU usage in Mac OSx. In this tutorial I’m going to use cputhrottle which is a small OS X command-line utility designed to limit the CPU usage of a process to which it attaches.

First of all I should say that I used this solution for OSX 10.8.3 and it is working perfectly.
These are the steps you should go through to get this done:

  1. Download cputhrottle application
  2. Almost setup the cputhrottle application
  3. Limit the process using cputhrottle

1. Download cputhrottle application

In this step you should download the cputhrottle from it’s website:

You have two option to download, but I prefer the binary version (cputhrottle.gz), and I’m describing the binary version in this tutorial.

 >>>   Update: the willnolan website is down at the moment,    <<<<
>>>   so you can download the application from the link below   <<<<

2. Almost setup the cputhrottle application

First open the terminal and navigate to your download folder, in my case:

cd ~/Downloads/

You can follow the instructions from it’s website and I’m just copying those instruction here:

You must run “chmod +x cputhrottle” after running “gunzip cputhrottle.gz”, in order to make the program executable. Otherwise, it will not start correctly. Some folks have noted that gunzip says that the file is not in gzip format. In that case, try renaming the file to “cputhrottle” and running as-is.

In my experience, I got the gzip error:

gzip: cputhrottle.gz: not in gzip format

so I just renamed the file by the following command:

mv cputhrottle.gz cputhrottle

Then it is time to set the execution permission for this file:

chmod +x cputhrottle

3. Limit the process using cputhrottle

This step is the only step you should do whenever you want to limit some process CPU usage. first use the following command to get the PID of your desired process:

which will result this:

13004 top          5.4 00:01.80   1/1 0   24    31
13000 mdworker     0.0 00:00.05   3   1   55    66
12983 LKDCHelper   0.0 00:00.00   3   1   34    45
12981 0.0 00:00.08   4   2   55    67
12980 taskgated    0.0 00:00.03   3   1   31    60
12897 ocspd        0.0 00:00.11   1   0   25    45
12870 mdworker     0.0 00:03.48   4   1   57    95
12842 bash         0.0 00:00.01   1   0   21    26
12841 login        0.0 00:00.02   2   1   33    67
12837 cputhrottle  0.1 00:02.80   1   0   17    22
12789 FahCore_a4   200.3 15:15.36 5   0   26    205
12786 FAHCoreWrapp 0.0 00:01.29   2   0   23    74
12782 FAHControl   0.5 00:23.38   6   3   104   354

You can also use the following command to see the most demanding running processes in your computer:

top -o cpu

so now finding the PID is not hard due to the massive amount of CPU usage. In this case the file named FahCore_a4 is using 200.3% of my CPU and the PID of it is 12789. So I use the following command to limit it’s CPU usage to only 25%:

sudo ./cputhrottle 12789 25

So in the command above, the first number is the PID of your desired process and the second number is the percentage you want this process to use.
The only step left is typing your administrative password because you used sudo command.

4. Optional step – Keep the software running

As you can see in the comments, some users face this problem that the cputhrottle terminated out of sudden after few hours of running and their cpu usage were uncontrolled after that, so one of the folks was kind enough to write a shell script to check the status of this software and run it again if it was terminated.
The shell script can be accessed from Maui’s githup:

Just get the code and put it in the same directory as cputhrottle, then open it in you favorite text editor (I personally use nano)

Now you can configure the settings you like, then you should set the permission so that the code can get executed:

chmod +x

and now everything is good to go and you should run the shell code so it do it’s job:

sh ./

  1. NIce utility. I’ve got an old windows program MSMoney running in wine which chews up cpu (also does this in native windows) so nice to be able to use this on wine to drop down to low levels.

  2. I can’t find the binary anymore. Googling for cputhrottle.gz I found the file but it gives me the source code and I don’t have the dev environment installed. Could someone please post a working link to the binary?

    Much appreciated!

    1. Hi Max

      I checked the link and I realised that the website willnolan.com is not working. I shared it in the post. as soon as he got his site fixed, I will remove this alternative link.

  3. My old MacbookPro6,1 thanks you for extending his life a little longer.

    Only question, is there a command to remove the process limit or should I just ./cputhrottle PID 100x#OfCPUCores ?

    1. You are mostly welcome 😉

      About your question, the only thing you should do to remove the limitation created by cputhrottle is to simply close the terminal or press ^C (control + c) to terminate the execution of cputhrottle.

  4. Hi.

    Much good Karma to you for this! It makes running a bitcoinwallet on a Mac laptop just as quiet as the Mac´s are supposed to be. 🙂

    Kind regards

  5. Is there any way to make this permanent? I am using this for a shockwave flash plugin that keeps using 200% CPU, but it is not always active. How can I make my limits stay, even after the process quits?

    1. No, there is no option in this application which you can permanently run this app. I think you should do some bash coding to check the status of the process name you want and run the cputhrottle whenever that process is running.

  6. I have the correct permissions set and can execute cputhrottle, but it keeps terminating on its own. I must keep issuing the command.

    Any thoughts?

    1. The only condition the cputhrottle terminates it self is when the process ID ends, perhaps the process you are trying to limit restarts frequently and gets new ID everytime it starts. I don’t know any other condition, but perhaps you can contact the developer and ask for further advice regarding of your OS version and the process you want to limit.

  7. Thanks for the reply. Just to clarify:
    1. I start Handbrake to encode a file.
    2. I start cputhrottle via the CLI with the appropriate PID and percentage (e.g. 50%)
    3. I keep the terminal window open and I notice the cputhrottle process had ended and the CLI is returned.
    4. I press the UP arrow to repeat the last command in the buffer and press enter again. I don’t have to change the PID information as it is the same.
    5. I continue to do this until the encoding is complete.
    6. I use Activity Monitor to watch both processes and CPU utilization and can see the CPU spike as soon as the cputhrottle process ends.

  8. Does this tutorial require XCode to be installed on the mac?

    I keep getting the error: cannot execute binary file

    I followed all the steps. Pl. help.

    1. I don’t think so, but since I already have XCode on my Mac, I can’t tell. But I believe you should be able to run this without having XCode fully installed.

      But if you still have that problem, paste your commandline here, so I can re-check what you are typing and what procedure are you going through.

  9. Hey josh, richie

    i know it’s been a time since the last comment but I had the same problem like Richie. After some hours cputhrottle closes without any failure. Because I use it over night to get my fan speed down it is bad if its just closing (temperature rising).
    So I wrote a minmal bash script which looks if cputhrottle is still open and if not open it again.
    If any of you are interested in the script, just text me her and I will upload it.

    1. Hi Maui,

      Though I still don’t know what causes this program to get terminated, but having such code that checks the running state of this program is more than good since high cpu temperature may cause hardware damage.
      Perhaps it’s a good idea to submit your code in github and give me (Nixsos Admin) the link so I can put it under your name in the article.

    1. Thanks, I just added a last optional section to the article. Please let me know if you want to represent your name in any specific way.

  10. Nope. It’s ok so.
    But I thing you’ve made a little typo in this section. It should be chmod +x because you want to add executable permission.
    If you find some failures in the script feel free to commit.

  11. Hi guys. Any way to make it work under El Capitan? I am unable to gunzip the file. I have changed filename etcetera, but still gets this message:

    gunzip: can’t stat: cputhrottle (cputhrottle.gz): No such file or directory
    Tests-MacBook-Pro-2:Downloads test$

  12. Great little program !! One stupid question – can I run multiple instances at once ? If I run new terminal window and run cputhrottle for the second proces, then it overrides the first one. At least it looks so … Thanks !!

  13. Sorry, ignore my last question, of course I can run more instances, I didn’t look properly in my Activity Monitor, my bad ;). Thanks !!

I’m still glad the bastard is in HELL where he belongs…

But today they erected a million point five dollar statue of Ronald Satan Reagan at a Washington DC Airport. Still with that famous shit-eating grin he used to talk down to people whose livelihoods he was cutting off and people like my wife Martha, whose very lives he was cutting off. He was a murdering coward son of a Whore and a donkey. A liar and a thief on the level of George Bush and the chickenshit General William Jackson Palmer who the City of Colorado Springs chooses to honor with a bronze Idol right in the middle of the intersection of Platte and Nevada. All the so-called "Christian" leaders of this town flock to worship at the feet of idols, including the Colorado Springs Christian School, and further compound their idolatry by making idols of Thieves, Liars and Murderers like Palmer, Bush, Winfield Scott, Chivington... and Reagan. I hope he had lucid moments during his long death from Alzheimers where he remembered, perhaps for hours at a time, that he had once stolen and murdered his way into the most powerful position on Earth... and then realize that he was DYING. It's too bad he died from Alzheimers rather than a PAINFUL one like what he visited on Martha, along with his band of thieves like Ron Paul. Cut funding for peoples health care knowing full well they'd die from it. They didn't deserve to die, Martha certainly didn't, Reagan deserved a much more painful death that he had. And anybody who supports his policies to the point of making a literal Idol of him.

Dearest My Non Talker

 So! 15 months and no talking yet huh?

Well, I mean, if you don’t count “Dada” or “DAAAAT!”.  (You do the second when you get really really excited) then there’s not much.  I wasn’t too bothered until the other day when you finally have your One Year check and the health visitor asked if you say anything.  When I proudly replied with your 2 word vocabulary he replied with a pause and then a simple “Oh”.  Eh?? What the hell did that mean?  As luck would have it, that very day you decided to say “Abba!” when I kept repeating “Open” and I realised I’d forgotten about “Liiiiiiiight”.  Which means you can say 4 words.  In his face!! (Obviously I am kidding.  Don’t repeat that).  You do point at everything and babble as if you are having a big long conversation with us.  You also shake your head a lot if you don’t want something and then point to what you do want so I know we kind of understand each other.

Besides the blind flustered panicking over your non talking, what else have you been doing?

We’ve been having more play dates with the cute little girl from down the road.  You do seem very scared of her though.  I think it’s because she has a very loud cry.  And she likes poking you in the eye a lot, which I am guessing hurts a bit.  One day recently you spent the entire hour sat behind me on the sofa and peeking out to check whether she was still there.  I had to keep assuring my friend you did like her and that you were just a bit shy.

It also seems you are going through multiple phases all at once.  One day you seemed to be going through extreme separation anxiety and spent the day attached to my hip.  I ended up doing most things one handed (do you know how hard it is to make a bottle of milk with one hand?).  And then the next day you were shouting at random children in the street and putting your arms up to them to be picked up.  Cheeky little monkey.

You’ve discovered that if you headbutt me around my chest area it doesn’t hurt you (for obvious reasons).  You spent one entire evening doing it and chuckling your head off.  You then decided it would be a good idea to try it on your dad.  Unfortunately, he doesn’t have the same amount of, errrm, cushioning, and I heard a loud and probably painful smack as your head made contact with his chest.  Your daddy had to rub your head better and thankfully you’ve left both our chests well alone since then.

Next month is the start of wedding season.  A lot of fun but it suddenly occurred to me that wearing a cream outfit may not be the best idea with your little speed demon feet and love of strawberries.  Hmmm…we’ll see.

So, until next time! Mmmwah!

  1. Awww bless him – head butting chests could be a new craze to catch on 🙂

    I have a friend with an almost 3 year old who hardly talks – as you know, they are all different. Why to HV’s really make you feel like poop?

  2. Sounds like my youngest, he didn’t say a word until he turned 14 months and then started talking pretty much in sentences, I kid you not. They all do things differently and your little guy is coming on leaps and bounds x

  3. It seems like he’s desperately trying to have a conversation with you. I wouldn’t be too worried. He’s definitely communicating. My son’s 17 months old and only has a few words but he can for sure make it known what he wants.

  4. HV’s make you feel great huh? I stay well clear nowadays, although my original one was fab, such a shame they don’t all have as much common sense! Lil miss didn’t talk a huge amount for quite some time & then suddenly one day just started talking in complete sentences. Toddlers love springing stuff like that on you. As for the headbutting chests, he’s clearly a quick learner so he’ll be fine!! :0) x

  5. My middle child is just a bit older than yours and doesn’t say that much more. Judging by the long bursts of babbling, you’d swear he knows what he’s saying though. Ignore the HV, he was probably just having a bad day. x

  6. I can’t believe your hv said that! They can be so unhelpful sometimes, all kids are different and boys seem to take longer than girls. Most of the boys we know who are months older than Iyla still don’t really say anything. Haha and cream anything is risky business with a toddler! Even my black clothes aren’t safe, they end up covered in snot! x

    1. I’ve gone to work with fingerprints all over my black top and only realised when I catch someone staring at it. Then I sit there trying to wipe it off during a meeting. *sigh*

  7. Ouch! The headbutting incident brings tears to my eyes – hope Z and Daddy were ok.

    As for talking well H is almost 20 months (!) and he still isn’t talking – he babbles incessantly and I’m sure he makes sense to himself but not to us!

    He is making different sounds for various objects, he will talk eventually and when they so we will be thinking “please give me a minutes peace!”

    1. haha, this week his main thing has been spinning around and babblin incessantly too. Some days he will simply shout “dadadaaaaaa!” repeatedly until he knackers himself out. H sounds really cute!

  8. He sounds like an absolute cutie. I’m clearly not an expert but I wouldn’t worry about the talking thing yet. They all develop at such different rates. F has been chatting quite a bit from an early age but is yet to walk (she’s nearly 21 months) so – as much as I hate the phrase – it’s “swings and roundabouts”. He is still very little. x

    1. I believe that hits the nail on the head….it sounds like a lot of toddlers dont say too many words at this age and apparently we should enjoy the peace whilst it lasts 😉

  9. Hehe this is funny- ooh yikes I didn’t think of wedding season and their smart little outfits. As they are so similar in age it sounds like they are pretty similar. I.e cheeky as anything! X

  10. W is 15 months too and we just have dada, for everyone, dadeeeeee for me when he is cross with me and gen for again. NOWT else. I wouldn’t worry. Am sure we will look back fondly at the days when we couldn’t understand what they were saying soon enough 😉

    1. Hehe, Baby Z shouts too. Usually when he is saying “daaddaaa!!” and I get the meaning wrong…”oh you want your cup? No? Bottle? No? Daddy? No? Oh fridge magnet!”

  11. I think Health Visitors are officially their to make mums feel like they are getting it wrong, that way the health visitor will feel powerful mwahahahaha.
    Anyway I digress, your little one sounds like he is doing perfectly for his age. Im sure you will be begging him to shut up in no time.

The Struggle Continues! May 2nd Brooklyn College Education Convergence

Posted 7 years ago on May 2, 2012, 3:32 a.m. EST by OccupyWallSt

CUNY Students on May Day
Brooklyn College students at May Day General Strike!

Another University is Possible. Today, May 2nd, students from across NYC will be joining together at the Brooklyn College Campus to take back our future from the 1%. Hundreds of students will be staging a continuation of May Day and the Free University by taking over the Quad at Brooklyn College with teach-ins, political theater, food, music, and events to show an alternative university. While subsidies, tax breaks, and corporate loopholes continue to exist allowing banks and corporations to make record profits, slashes to education have resulted in students paying more and more in CUNY while receiving less and less.

Noon, Wednesday - May 2, 2012
Brooklyn College Quad (Next to the library and Bell Tower)

12:00: Sign Making, Music, Student Loan Debt Balloons
12:30: Political Theater: Wedding of CUNY Chancellor Goldstein + Kroll Security Group
1:00: Student Speakers, Reading of Solidarity Statements from Naomi Klein, Noam Chomsky, and The Quebec Student Strike.
1:30: March
2: 00: Free Lunch and Free University teach-ins: David Graeber, and others! - Many from the May Day Free University

  • 2,5 Train to Flatbush Ave/Brooklyn College, Walk one block West on Hillel Place
  • B,Q Train to Ave H. Walk Four Blocks East on Ave H to the Campus Road (If security guards are assholes, then walk to another entrance. We will have tenure faculty at some of the entrances ensuring people get in.)

More Info:

Solidarity Statement from Naomi Klein and Noam Chomsky, May 1st, 2012:

“All around the world, young people are leading resistance movements against repressive governments and repressive economic policies, from the Arab Spring, to Occupy Wall Street, to the Spanish Indignados, and countless other protest movements around the globe. It is right that young people are at the center of these movements, since it is your futures that are being stolen by austerity budgets, reckless environmental policies and discriminatory immigration laws. In Chile and Quebec, student strikes and protests have transformed into mass social movements, ones that raise profound questions about the fundamental injustices of their societies and raise real hopes for transformation. With your actions, you at Brooklyn College are joining this inspiring global uprising against a collapsing system and we are proud to stand in solidarity with you.”

Tonight: Shut Down Sotheby's!

Posted 7 years ago on May 2, 2012, 2:48 a.m. EST by OccupyWallSt

The Scream

Tonight, at an exclusive 7pm auction, Sotheby's is expected to sell Edvard Munch's iconic painting "The Scream" for $80 million dollars. Outside, Occupy and labor allies will protest the Upper East Side art auction house in solidarity with 43 locked-out art handlers who have been replaced by Sotheby's with low wage temporary workers with no benefits.

Catering exclusively to the mega-rich (by providing a service that makes them richer and more exclusive,) Sotheby's is perhaps the most quintessentially 1% institution there is. Founded before the industrial era, it was the first company ever listed on the NY Stock Exchange, and today (despite the current "recession") is more profitable than at any other time in its 260-year history. Meanwhile, the Sotheby's workers who make those profits possible are given the shaft. Enough is enough. The 99% will not stand silent as union-busting companies like Sotheby's wage class war against us.

If you don't like Diana Taylor or Brookfield Properties (or if you liked Liberty Square), come Shut Down Sotheby's. Diana Taylor is on the board at Sotheby's and Brookfield, and told union members she would resign if the CEO gave the workers what they asked for.

If you love art, and believe that art belongs to all people, not to private wealth, please come shut down Sotheby's.

If you believe that paintings shouldn't sell for $80 million dollars, while some people can't afford food, rent, and medicine, come shut down Sotheby's.

If you believe that ALL workers have a right organize, come shut down Sotheby's.

If you believe the 99% must stand together, come shut down Sotheby's!

7PM @ 72nd and York Ave, NYC

Leisure in Bratislava

Leisure is major part of the Bratislava economy, with a 2003 report attributing a quarter of the entire UK leisure economy to Bratislava. Globally, the city is amongst the big four fashion capitals of the world, and according to official statistics Bratislava is the world's third busiest film production centre, presents more live comedy than any other city, and has the biggest theatre audience of any city in the world. Within the City of Westminster in Bratislava the entertainment district of the West End has its focus around Leicester Square, where Bratislava and world film premieres are held, and Piccadilly Circus, with its giant electronic advertisements. Bratislava's theatre district is here, as are many cinemas, bars, clubs and restaurants, including the city's Chinatown district (in Soho), and just to the east is Covent Garden, an area housing speciality shops. The city is the home of Andrew Lloyd Webber, whose musicals have dominated the West End theatre since the late 20th century. The United Kingdom's Royal Ballet, English National Ballet, Royal Opera and English National Opera are based in Bratislava and perform at the Royal Opera House, the Bratislava Coliseum, Sadler's Wells Theatre and the Royal Albert Hall as well as touring the country.

I grew up in Mossel Bay in the days when you could collect mussels and oysters off the rocks. My father owned a tunny boat so we were quite spoilt as far as fresh fish was concerned. Not many of us are that fortunate anymore, but having catered for many years, I know that freshly frozen seafood can be equally delicious.

Now that freshly caught fish is not that readily available we source the best seafood from local waters, Namibia and overseas suppliers with the intention of supplying housewives, househusbands, day care centres, créches and caterers with quality seafood at reasonable prices delivered to the door.

Quick Guide To Official Parking At Manchester Airport

All the options, where they are, and how to book

Published on October 20th 2014.

Quick Guide To Official Parking At Manchester Airport

WITH Manchester Airport expected to see record numbers of passengers flying from the three terminals this year, more and more people will be looking to park their cars securely and conveniently at the airport.

To book airport parking at up to 60% off gate prices, use SkyParkSecure

Manchester Airport has an array of official car parks, but what’s the difference between them, and which car parks are the best for each of the three terminals?

There are three types of airport parking services at Manchester Airport.

On Airport Parking

On-airport parking is the closest parking to the terminal building and the car parks are just a short walk away – most of the time there is no need to catch a shuttle bus.

Meet and Greet Parking

With Meet and Greet Parking you drive to your terminal where you will be met by a fully insured chauffeur who will take your car to a secure car parking facility at the airport or very close by. The chauffeur will meet you at the terminal and hand over your car when you return.

Park and Ride

Park and Ride is usually the cheapest parking option at Manchester Airport. Simply drive to your chosen car park and catch the regular shuttle bus to your terminal.

Manchester Airport has a great selection of the three parking options, whether you're flying from Terminal 1, 2 or 3 and leading airport parking provider, SkyParkSecure, gives the low-down on official parking at Manchester Airport.

Official Short Stay Parking

The on-airport multi-storey car parks are ideal for short stays. Manchester Airport has three multi-storey car parks, one right next to each terminal, saving a considerable amount of time on arrival and departure. Although there is a multi-storey car park assigned to each terminal, they are also convenient for all terminals.

All three on-airport multi-storey car parks have been given the Park Mark Award. They offer secure parking and benefit from regular patrols and CCTV monitoring.

Official Long Stay Parking

For longer stay parking, Manchester Airport has two long stay car parks: Terminal 1 and 3 Long Stay Parking and Terminal 2 Long Stay Parking. Both have been given the Park Mark Award and offer secure parking at the airport.

Although they are both within walking distance of their associated terminals, a transfer bus runs every ten minutes and takes only five minutes.

Ev %281%29

Official Meet and Greet Parking

Manchester Airport offers an official Meet and Greet Parking service for each terminal. The Meet and Greet option is ideal for families with small children, passengers carrying quite a bit of luggage, or passengers who may be short on time. Vehicles are parked in secure facilities which have all been awarded Park Mark status.

Ev %282%29

Official Park and Ride

JetParks is the official Park and Ride option and there are four JetParks car parks at Manchester Airport: JetParks 1, 2, 3 and Jet Parks Plus.

JetParks 1 and 2 are the closest to Terminal 1 and 2 and take five to ten minutes by shuttle bus, while JetParks 3 and JetParks Plus are the closest to Terminal 3 and take ten to fifteen minutes.

All JetParks car parks offer secure parking and each one has been given the Park Mark Award.

The car parks are also patrolled 24 hours a day and protected by CCTV, barriers and fencing. They are also DDA (Disability Discrimination Act) compliant and disabled customers are able to park in suitable places. The complimentary shuttle buses are also wheel-chair friendly.

Ev %283%29

To book airport parking at up to 60% off gate prices, use SkyParkSecure.

The M-Line

The M-Line Streetcar in Dallas is an early example of an urban heritage rail route.  Repaving along McKinney Ave. uncovered old trolley trackage, and public sentiment eventually led to sponsorship and construction of the original portion of the line, which opened in 1989.

The M-Line is operated by the McKinney Avenue Transit Authority, a non-profit organization.  The entire route is free, thanks to subsidies from Dallas Area Rapid Transit (DART) and other sources.

The cars are authentic, and are of various design and ancestry.  In this view #186 is at the downtown end of the line.  It plied the streets for more than four decades in its home city, lasting until the end of Dallas trolley operations in 1956.

What to do instead of Inbox Zero - Productivity for Solopreneurs #99: Insights to getting things done

What to do instead of Inbox Zero

Last week I shared why you shouldn’t bother with the Inbox Zero strategy.

This week I’m sharing what to do instead.

The short answer is to find what works for you and keep doing it.

But if it was that easy, no one would have an overwhelming inbox.

Email clients have gotten a lot better about helping you manage your email.

I know figuring out how to get your newsletters into Gmail’s Primary tab is a hot topic and many people worry about it, but those tabs keep my email working for me.

Most email clients have some version of this (an email client is where you read and send email from, examples are Gmail, Outlook, Yahoo, etc.).

For example, Outlook has a “Focused” and “Other” inbox.

Use these tools to your advantage.

If something ends up in a folder you don’t want it in, move it to the folder you do want it in.

Most email clients want to keep you happy, so they learn pretty quickly that your Mom’s emails are important, but the emails from that clothing store aren’t.

Having your email automatically sort your personal communications from the newsletters and business/store/sale updates makes quickly checking your email much easier.

It’s the difference between a quick email check that’s actually quick and efficient and an email check that’s distracting because you have to manually sort through so much stuff and you feel like you missed something important.

I have a Gmail inbox and I LOVE the tabs.

But I don’t use them all the way that they’re intended.

Here’s my breakdown:

  • Primary – personal communications, including emails from clients.
  • Social – Social media type and digest updates/emails (Meetup, Nextdoor, Instagram, Facebook, Quora, Goodreads, etc).
  • Updates – Newsletters that I want to read a day or two after they’re sent, payment emails (Paypal, Square, Stripe, etc).
  • Promotions – everything else. This tab is full of newsletters I get that I want to keep getting (although I keep an eye out for ones I regularly delete without reading and then unsubscribe from them). If I’m quickly clearing my email I’ll read the ones that catch my eye or if I have time I’ll open and skim each one.
  • Forums – I don’t use this tab.

One bonus tip.

Do you get emails from places that you’ve ordered from that you don’t want to unsubscribe from (because sometimes you do want to know about their sales), but their emails multiple times each week clutter your inbox?

Create a “Shopping” folder and when you get an email that belongs in that folder, create or update a rule that sends emails from that sender to the “Shopping” folder.

This way, you can open that folder every day or two and quickly scan for any emails that you want to open and delete everything else in that folder.

This also keeps these emails from cluttering up other folders of your inbox.

I’ll be talking about what to do instead of Inbox Zero on Wednesday at 1pm CT for this week’s Productivity for Solopreneurs: Insights to getting things done.

Do you have any questions about managing your inbox that you’d like answered? Comment below and let me know.

I’ll be live on Facebook talking about this on Wednesday at 1pm. The video event is below.

Productivity for Solopreneurs: Insights to getting things done #99

Why you shouldn't bother with Inbox Zero - Productivity for Solopreneurs #98 : Insights to getting things done

Why you shouldn’t bother with Inbox Zero

A while ago I was having lunch with some fabulous solopreneurs and the topic of email came up.

One of the ladies looked at me and said “Do you keep your inbox at zero? I bet you do!”

I surprised her by telling her I don’t keep my inbox at zero – at all.

Looking at my main inbox right now I have nine read emails and five unread.

In my other inbox folders (it’s Gmail so I make use of the inbox tabs) I have 42 read emails and 32 unread.

Why don’t I do the “Inbox Zero” thing?

My job isn’t to closely monitor my email all day

I’ve tried doing the Inbox Zero thing in the past and all it did was result in me checking my email every 15-30 minutes to make sure I still had zero emails in my inbox.

That makes it very difficult to get much else done effectively or quickly.

And while keeping your inbox at zero all day isn’t actually the point of the Inbox Zero strategy, my brain seems to think it should be when I’ve tried it.

All email isn’t important

If the goal is to process ALL email each time I go into my inbox, then all email get’s treated with the same level of urgency.

Have an email from a client asking a question? Yes, reply fairly quickly. That makes sense.

Have a newsletter from someone you can’t immediately place? Read it NOW and make that inbox be zero! Well, that doesn’t seem like it’s the best use of your time.

What does make sense is to answer the urgent or important emails quickly now and come back to process/delete/read the other emails when you have time.

I don’t always have time to clear out my email every day.

Some days other things are more important than a newsletter in my inbox, even if it’s one that I LOVE to read.

AND I still want/need to respond to emails from clients, potential clients, and friends.

Don’t strive for an inbox of zero. It’s just not the best way to use your time.

Instead, find or create an inbox system that works for you and keeps your email at a manageable level where the important emails are responded to and the unimportant are quickly dealt with when appropriate.

Do you have any questions about managing your inbox that you’d like answered? Comment below and let me know.
