Best smart bulbs
Smart light bulbs—LED-based bulbs that can be controlled by a hub or smartphone app—are no longer a new idea. What is new is how far this technology has come since its advent just a few years ago. Also new: Products like the Nanoleaf Aurora—a system of interlocking LED panels that let you decorate with light—fundamentally change the light-bulb concept.
Smart LED bulbs aren’t quite a commodity, but they are getting close to maturity as far as the market goes (the Aurora being an exception). Today’s bulbs are more compact, much brighter, have better color representation, and, for the most part, feature control apps that do more than ever and are easier to set up. Prices have also come down, with some no-name color-tunable bulbs now available for less than $10 each. (Buyer beware: You get what you pay for.)

UK Telecoms startup Aurora Telecom Celebrates its one year anniversary
Aurora Telecom, a fast-growing B2B telecommunications startup celebrates its first year of opera-tions. The company targets the SME Market that regularly suffers from poor connectivity speeds at inflated prices.
CHESTER, United Kingdom (PRWEB) November 02, 2017
Aurora Telecom specialises in offering affordable prices while still being able to deliver excellent customer service to small businesses. With phone and broadband packages starting from £17.90 a month, Aurora Telecom is on track to establishing themselves as the ‘go to’ provider for small businesses in the UK, that struggle with the high prices and hidden costs of traditional providers as they celebrate their first year of trading.
About Aurora Telecom: https://www.auroratelecom.co.uk/about-us/
The company’s founders bring together their entrepreneurial spirit and wealth of experience in building direct sales and marketing services in the telecoms, finance and energy sectors (with a proven track record). The business was established to provide a refreshing option to businesses in the SME Market after discovering they were being let down by traditional providers, and their con-fusing, complex tariff options and lack of transparency.
But how do Aurora Telecom manage to keep their monthly rate at such good value while maintain-ing an excellent service to their customers? The answer, Aurora Telecom use their strong relation-ships in the telecommunication industry to negotiate great deals. The discounts are then passed directly on to their customers. Led by General Manager, John Dougan, who boasts an impressive CV and skill set in the telecommunications industry, with over 20 years experience. Mr. Dougan claims, ‘We are a business that aims to be in the industry for a long time, it’s important that we po-sition ourselves as a major force in the telecoms space though great quality products combined with expert customer service based right here in the UK.'
“Providing great customer service is at the heart of everything we are about. We will continue to strive to provide a great service to all our customers while remaining completely transparent. We want to regain that element of trust that has been lost due to traditional providers failing in transpar-ency with their hidden costs. I believe we have been successful in that regard. It has been a great first year, but our work is definitely not done yet, here's too many more,” stated Mr. Dougan.
A year on and Aurora Telecom have seen them establish themselves as a credible provider in the telecoms industry that has previously been difficult for newcomers to crack. It is safe to say it has been a case of “so far so good” for the Chester-based company.

Aurora Cannabis Breaks Out, Setting the Stage for a Move Toward $10
ACBFF Stock: A Powerful Price Pattern Is Complete

This licensed marijuana producer that operates in Canada is building an 800,000-square-foot facility called "Aurora Sky" which is adjacent to Edmonton International Airport, making the growth prospects for this company very compelling.

Boxing’s artfulness is theatrically creative at the Aurora
Aurora Theatre’s “The Royale” is about boxing, but performers never physically fight each other in the ring. “During the ‘fight’ sequences, both boxers should face the audience, not each other, and there is no need to swing,” writes playwright Marco Ramirez in an opening stage direction, adding, “You’ll see.” The Bay Area premiere, which was inspired by the life and career of Jack Johnson, the first black heavyweight champion, instead conveys the rhythm, the energy of prizefighting through percussive text that’s frequently punctuated by claps and stomps.

Most of today's terrorists and mass shooters are millennial men — here's why that could be
· *Over the last 10 years, men in their mid- to late 20s and early 30s have committed the majority of US terrorist attacks and mass shootings.*· *Psychiatrists say the issue could be partly developmental, as brain regions governing risky behavior aren't fully formed until age 25.*
· *Social forces that build over time could help explain why men are more likely than women to be suspects or perpetrators.*
--------------------It was mid-afternoon on Halloween when a man in a Home Depot pickup truck veered into a New York City bike lane, killing eight people and injuring a dozen more. It was the city's deadliest terror attack since September 11, 2001.
The suspect was later identified as 29-year-old Sayfullo Saipov — a man who federal investigators believe had ties to ISIS.
Over the past decade, the demographic profile of terrorists like Saipov has begun to come into focus. Men between 20 and 30 years old are overwhelmingly more likely to commit mass shootings, attacks, and acts of terrorism than any other gender or age group in the US, the evidence suggests.
Psychiatrists and social scientists believe the trend can be explained by a mix of factors, including a lack of psychological development, the need for belonging, and an evolving trend of past attacks that make future ones seem less horrific to perpetrators, and perhaps even noble.
*A 10-year trend*
Consider the following chart, which plots every major US terrorist attack, mass shooting, and otherwise politically motivated or premeditated attack over the last 10 years. The full data set can be viewed here.
From the Virginia Tech massacre in 2007, carried out by 23-year-old Seung-Hi Cho, to the most recent attack in New York City, the trend gradually begins to cluster around men in their mid-20s and early 30s.
The most infamous events include James Holmes, 24, killing 12 and injuring 58 in the Aurora, Colorado movie theater killing spree; Adam Lanza, 20, fatally shooting 28 people (many of them children) at Newtown Elementary School; 20- and 26-year-old Dzhokhar and Tamerlan Tsarnaev of the Boston Marathon Bombings in 2013; and Dylann Roof, 21, who killed nine churchgoers in South Carolina in June 2015.
*A lack of development in the brain*
Dr. Howard Forman, assistant professor of psychiatry and behavioral sciences at Albert Einstein College of Medicine, believes underdevelopment in the brain's frontal lobes, the areas responsible for controlling impulses and risky behavior, could play a role. In humans, the frontal lobes keep growing until approximately age 25.
"The preponderance of young men engaging in these deadly, evil, and stupid acts of violence may be a result of brains that have yet to fully developed," Forman told Business Insider.
Since many of the men are older than 25, Forman also suggested the desire for community could be attracting people on the margins. Forman called this "the allure of evil," and it seems to be consistent with terrorists often showing allegiance to groups like ISIS or other ideological causes.
"Joining a movement of evil, whether fascist, supremacist, or terrorist oftentimes allows an individual to go from feelings of being a nobody to being a somebody," Forman said. "And not just a somebody, but even a leader."
*The theory of "thresholds"*
The fact that men, not women, tend to commit terrorist acts makes things more complicated. After all, women's frontal lobes also keep developing until 25, so it's not just a matter of development.
To explain that difference, some social scientists have come to rely on the theory of "thresholds," or the idea that each person has a different standard for which they'll engage in certain acts. The theory was developed by sociologist Mark Granovetter in the 1970s.
In his 2015 New Yorker piece "How School Shootings Happen," journalist Malcolm Gladwell unpacks Granovetter's research. He explains that someone who riots by throwing a brick through a store window has a threshold of zero. They can act alone. But someone else in that riot might need to see that first brick go through the glass to pick one up themselves, so they have a threshold of one. And so on. Even if your threshold is 1,000 or 10,000, Granovetter's research suggests that everyone has their threshold to riot.
The same could be happening with mass shootings, Gladwell argues. Ever since Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold committed the 1999 massacre at Columbine High School, young men have had a kind of playbook to carry out mass murder. Young men can point to specific predecessors who paved the way with past attacks, ultimately turning them into idols.
In effect, these attacks have become "a slow-motion, ever-evolving riot," Gladwell wrote, "in which each new participant's action makes sense in reaction to and in combination with those who came before."
*A look toward the future*
Whether the trend abates could depend on how well communities, in addition to local and federal governments, address the psychological and cultural issues affecting men in this age bracket.
Forman's explanation suggests that millennial men who feel ostracized need more productive ways to become part of a group. Criminal psychologist James Garbarino, who has spent 20 years interviewing convicted murderers, has found the majority of men have unresolved trauma in their lives.
Granovetter's research also suggests the federal government has a role to play in destroying the ideological networks that link so many killers together, in order to stop the threshold effect.
Less than 24 hours after the New York City atack, President Trump declared that the US needed to "step up our already Extreme Vetting Program." (Uzbekistan, Saipov's home country, is not included on Trump's initial list of banned countries.)
In the meantime, the trend of past attacks, the current political climate, and the sheer size of the millennial population all suggest tensions are unlikely to cool anytime soon.
