Silicon Graphics International
Silicon Graphics International Corp. (SGI; formerly Rackable Systems, Inc.) was an American manufacturer of computer hardware and software, including high-performance computing systems, x86-based servers for datacenter deployment, and visualization products. The company was founded as Rackable Systems in 1999, but adopted the "SGI" name in 2009 after acquiring Silicon Graphics Inc. out of bankruptcy. On November 1, 2016, Hewlett Packard Enterprise completed its acquisition of SGI for $275 million. History Rackable Systems, Inc. era Rackable Systems Inc. went public in June 2005, with 6.25 million shares offered at $12 per share. In 2006, Rackable announced it had signed an agreement to acquire Terrascale Technologies, Inc. On April 1, 2009, Rackable announced an agreement to acquire Silicon Graphics, Inc. for $25 million. The purchase, ultimately for $42.5 million, was finalized on May 11, 2009; at the same time, Rackable announced their adoption of "SGI" as their global na ...

Risk-aware Consensual Kink
Risk-aware consensual kink (RACK, also risk-accepted consensual kink) is an acronym used by some of the BDSM community to describe a philosophical view that is generally permissive of certain risky sexual behaviors, as long as the participants are fully aware of the risks. This is often viewed in contrast to safe, sane, and consensual which generally holds that only activities that are considered safe, sane, and consensual are permitted. Philosophy The philosophy for RACK consists of the following components: * Risk-aware: Both or all partners are well-informed of the risks involved in the proposed activity. * Consensual: In light of those risks, both or all partners have, of sound mind, offered preliminary consent to engage in said activity. * Kink: Said activity can be classified as alternative sex. While "Safe, sane and consensual" (SSC) attempts to describe and differentiate BDSM from abuse in ways that are easy for the non-BDSM public to comprehend, RACK differs from it ...

Receptor For Activated C Kinase 1
Receptor for activated C kinase 1 (RACK1), also known as guanine nucleotide-binding protein subunit beta-2-like 1 (GNB2L1), is a 35 Atomic mass unit, kDa protein that in humans is encoded by the RACK1 gene. Function RACK1 was originally isolated and identified as an intracellular protein receptor for protein kinase C, noting the significant homology to the beta subunit of heterotrimeric G proteins. Later studies established RACK1, and its yeast homolog Asc1, as a core ribosomal protein of the Eukaryotic small ribosomal subunit (40S), eukaryotic small (40S) ribosomal subunit. Much of the function of Asc1/RACK1 appears to result from its position on the 'head' of the 40S ribosomal subunit. Asc1/RACK1 participates in several aspects of eukaryotic translation and ribosome quality control, including Internal ribosome entry site, IRES-mediated translation, non-stop decay, non-functional 18S ribosomal RNA decay, and Translational frameshift, frameshifting. Interactions RACK1 is posi ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
