Why Switching to On line Fax Can Reduce Your Carbon Footprint ...
Pressures from environmental groups and also the media have highlighted the will need for companies to be far more environmentally friendly and some providers have taken profound methods to implement this. As an example some corporations have employed ?environmental teams? to enhance their organization processes and some have set emissions targets as a single of their important annual targets.
Even so not all businesses must visit such lengths, particularly smaller enterprises, as there are smaller and less complicated actions that can be produced to assist reduce a business?s carbon footprint. For instance turning electrical equipment off that is not being utilized and recycling where attainable are a few smaller things. But a thing that is definitely far more monumental is switching from working with a regular fax service to an internet fax.
Benefits of Web Fax
Energy Saving
You can find estimated to be over 23,000,000 organization fax machines inside the U.S. alone, a few of these sit idle in an office. Fax machines demand to be left on standby to receive incoming faxes, nonetheless when left on standby they continue to clock up substantial power costs for any enterprise.
Unlike classic fax machines which need an isolated phone line, net faxes are sent and received on-line and can be read from personal computer monitors and also other mobile devices. So when moving to World-wide-web fax, companies can unify their communications into a single point of access, as fax and e mail can each be sent and received from a single laptop or computer. This eliminates the require to have each a fax machine and laptop powered up in 1 instance, which can be not merely extra efficient, but is far more expense successful and much less damaging for the atmosphere.
Much less trees have to have to become cut down
Internet fax is pretty much paperless as users only need to print the faxes that they need to have a challenging copy of, whilst the typical U.S small business fax machine can consume as much as 5,000 sheets of paper per year, which equates to 13.eight million trees getting cut down each year to print faxes.
With such staggering figures environmental organizations are putting more pressure on organizations to cut back their carbon footprint and updating outdated communication processes just like manual fax machines is a good spot to begin.
CO2 emissions are decreased
A single business fax machine is routinely left on standby for a period of 24 hours, which indicates it omits an typical of 200 kg of CO2 every single day, which equates to 73 tonnes of CO2 emitted by every fax machine annually.
Through the course of action of carbon sequestration a wholesome tree absorbs about 13.5 kg of CO2 a year, but 13.8 million are getting cut down each year to source the paper for fax machines. This shows that fax machines are a part of a vicious cycle that is definitely hurting the surroundings.
Landfill
Landfill web sites are heaped with old discarded electronics and ink/toner cartridges, which may leak damaging poisons in the utilization of plastics.
A single toner cartridge emits around four.8 kg of CO2. This is not taking into the account the greenhouse gas emission in the toner ink which equals 3.two kg CO2 per cartridge. The quantity of ink cartridges dumped into landfill is expanding at an alarming rate, it can be estimated that by the end of 2012, 1.8 billion ink cartridges will likely be dumped into landfill.
It?s becoming increasingly significant for companies to cut back their carbon footprint and switching from conventional fax to online fax may help them do that, through a reduction in energy consumption, paper demand and dangerous greenhouse emissions.
Similarly by taking go here, corporations may also see economic rewards. By ?going green? businesses will come to be extra effective, decrease power consumption and improve productivity that can eventually reduce fees.

Design Tudakoz? ? Budapest Based Interior Design Consulting ...
There is no day going by without me flipping through some magazines or blogs dedicated to architecture and interior design. I can spend hours looking at pictures of nicely appointed homes, apartments and living spaces ? sometimes just for the purpose of dreaming, sometimes for inspiration. Yes, I am an addict and I love it :). This is also the reason, why I am happy to introduce a young Hungarian architect and interior designer, Viktor Csap and his business, Design Tudakoz? (in English: Design Inquiries).
First time I came across Viktor?s portfolio, I was looking at his work executed in small flats. Having been confronted with small living spaces in big cities quite a few times in my life, I kind of wished he would have been around back then to help me with making those spaces look gorgeous and still functional. Today I am glad that this part of the market is developing and architects focus on smaller spaces, too, not only on big houses, villas and residences ? as I think it is a real challenge to make small spaces livable, cozy, appealing and practical at the same time.
Viktor graduated at VIA University in Denmark with BA in Architecture in 2008. After graduation he relocated back to Hungary and started working at the Budapest based Geppetto Design Studio. In 2012 Viktor founded Design Tudakoz? that offers a wide range of services to clients in and around the topic living & working spaces:?from neutral opinion on a project in completion, to few tips on renovating a room or an office, and of course also execution of more complex projects as well as architectural and interior design consultancy services to private & corporate clients. Design Tudakoz? consists of three experts, beside Viktor Csap founder, Panna Piros interior designer and Daniel Borl?i architectural consultant are at clients? services as well as other professionals and partners will be brought along depending on the nature of the project.
A proud father to a 7 months old girl, Viktor also loves winter sports and he would like to do a tour on the Russian tundra sometime later. During his visits in foreign towns and cities he likes the feeling of ?getting lost? and is interested in discovering hidden places that tourist guide books do not talk about. Beside his consultancy services, Viktor also owns an online shop Nooka Hungary, dedicated to sleek, designy accessories.
As I have already mentioned earlier, tastes and preferences vary and can be different, but when I first saw Viktor?s work, I liked his concepts instantly. In some cases the north European influence and inspiration is evident (which I am a huge fan of!), however in other cases his multifaceted taste and ideas come to light, too. I am more than curious to read about Viktor?s future projects. It is great to see young talents believing in themselves and taking the courage of building up their own businesses from scratch. Good luck to Viktor with his future endeavors.
For more information please have a look at Viktor?s portfolio on Behance,?or visit the Design Tudakozo website?and Facebook page?(both website and FB page only in Hungarian).

All Critics (47) | Top Critics (13) | Fresh (44) | Rotten (3)
[Leaves] you drained and horrified.
Sometimes, the sun shines and the wind blows fresh and the very elements that make for intense hardship also open a window on intense joy.
Hoss is mesmerizing as a woman who holds it all together to the point of losing herself.
It's one terrific film, as smart, thoughtful and emotionally involving as just about anything that's out there.
It's a quiet film built of careful details.
"Barbara" re-visits the quiet, everyday tragedies of the Iron Curtain era, when paranoia ran deep and for very good reasons.
Feels like total immersion into the sights, stresses, and the subtle solidarity among middle-class professionals living in the workers' paradise that Petzold's parents fled.
[R]esides somewhere in an unsatisfying borderland between drama and thriller, never quite catching fire as either...
A superbly crafted low-boil drama that gets its hooks into you the old-fashioned way, through character, and highlights the difficulties and cost of living by principles.
Subtly intriguing and ambiguous, it's filled with suspicion and subterfuge.
Despite the limited scope of its predictable narrative, "Barbara" remains a compelling character study thanks to Nina Hoss's enigmatic performance in the title role.
Christian Petzold's latest thriller threatens to cross over the line from minimalism to nihilism.
Both insightful and poignant, but not mawkish...an intriguing character study set against the backdrop of a dark time in history.
The plotting, the planning and the deepening relationships don't make for kinetic action, but they are the foundation for a smart, engrossing film.
Hoss' acting is a marvel of subtlety; her body language is precisely calibrated to reveal a great deal about the character's inner feelings by the slightest changes of posture and facial expression.
...a slow building character study where looks and actions speak louder than words because of an oppressive political climate.

N.Y. Mayor Bloomberg giving another $350 million to Johns Hopkins
(Reuters) - New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg is giving $350 million of his multibillion-dollar fortune to his alma mater, Johns Hopkins University, in a gift that will bring his total lifetime donations to the institution to over $1 billion, the school said on Saturday.
Bloomberg's giving to the university over the years makes him its largest-ever philanthropic benefactor, the school said in a statement.
Of the new gift, $250 million will go toward the university's work to tackle global challenges such as the preservation of water resources, while the other $100 million will provide financial aid to undergraduate students, according to the school.
When he was an undergraduate at the Baltimore university, Bloomberg paid for his tuition by taking loans and working as a parking lot attendant. His first Johns Hopkins gift was $5 in 1965, a year after he received his bachelor's degree in engineering.
"Johns Hopkins University has been an important part of my life since I first set foot on campus more than five decades ago," Bloomberg said in a statement. "Each dollar I have given has been well-spent improving the institution and, just as importantly, making its education available to students who might otherwise not be able to afford it."
Bloomberg, now 70, went on to found financial news and information company Bloomberg LP and amassed a fortune estimated by Forbes magazine at $25 billion.
Bloomberg, who was elected mayor of New York in 2001, has said he will give away his fortune before he dies and has set up Bloomberg Philanthropies to distribute gifts. Besides education, his donations have targeted public health initiatives, the environment and the arts.
Bloomberg, chairman of the university's board of trustees from 1996 to 2002, has given the school a total of $1.118 billion, it said.

LOS ANGELES (AP) ? Metta World Peace hit five 3-pointers on his way to scoring 17 points and the Los Angeles Lakers pulled away in the fourth quarter to beat the Utah Jazz 102-84 on Friday night, snapping a four-game skid.
Dwight Howard had 17 points and 13 rebounds, Steve Nash scored 15 and Pau Gasol added 15 points off the bench. Kobe Bryant had 14 points, a season-high 14 assists and nine rebounds to help the Lakers beat the Jazz for the first time in three meetings this season. Utah's four-game winning streak came to an end.
Howard aggravated his right shoulder in the second quarter of the Lakers' loss at Memphis on Wednesday, the same injury that caused him to miss three games two weeks ago. But he showed no ill effects from the start, scoring six points in a 15-4 spurt that opened the game and gave the Lakers the lead for good.
Derrick Favors led the Jazz with 14 points off the bench. Fellow reserve Gordon Hayward scored 13 and Al Jefferson had 12. Paul Millsap and Randy Foye added 10 points each. Utah had won six of its previous seven.
Utah cut its deficit to 78-69 early in the fourth before the Lakers began dominating the final 10 minutes. World Peace hit his fifth 3-pointer and Bryant scored four points during a 14-5 spurt that pushed Los Angeles' lead to 92-74. The Lakers were 9 of 21 from long range.
The Lakers had lost 10 of their last 12 and remain seven games below .500.
The Lakers led by 12 points early in the third before Utah closed to 61-58, capped by Favors' alley-oop dunk off a pass from Earl Watson. The Lakers fought back from 3-point range. Chris Duhon and World Peace combined for three 3-pointers and Jodie Meeks dunked to keep them ahead 72-63 going into the fourth. Gasol and Millsap got into it verbally and received double technicals as the quarter was ending.
Utah closed to 47-37 at halftime.
The Lakers' 15-4 run to start the game was helped by World Peace and Nash combining for three 3-pointers. The Jazz quickly closed within two before the Lakers stretched their lead to 26-19.
NOTES: World Peace was one 3-pointer shy of equaling his career high of six set on Feb. 28, 2009, against Chicago. ... Bryant's assists were three off his career high of 15 set on Feb. 12, 2002, against Washington. ... Utah fell to 9-16 on the road.
