Who invented the ball?

If you mean for sport it is doubtful there is enough recorded evidence to exactly pinpoint any one person or culture. Regardless from watching several TLC documentaries.

The ancient Aztecs played a form of basketball with a hoop placed on the side of a wall. They used a crude leather ball. Ancient Egypt was known to play an early form of soccer with a somewhat circular shaped object.

The first official balls were manufactured by Charles Goodyear in 1836. Other than that read this. "Through out history, humans have enjoyed kicking a ball or something like a ball. South American Indians were known to use a light elasticized ball. However; rubber was not to be practically manufactured until a few thousand years later.

According to historical references and legend, early balls ranged from human heads, stitched up cloth, animal and human skulls to pig or cow bladders.

During the Ts'in and Han Dynasties (255 BC-220 AD), the Chinese played 'tsu chu', in which animal-skin balls were dribbled through gaps in a net stretched between two poles. Certain ancient Egyptian rites are said by historians to have similarities with football, and both the ancient Greeks and Romans also played a game that entailed carrying and kicking a ball.

According to pre-medieval legend, an entire village would kick a skull along a path to a nearby village square. The opposing village would in turn attempt to kick the skull to the first village's square. Wow, that probably caused more riots than in modern soccer games.

A Medieval custom was to take pig bladders used from live stock killed in preparation for winter sustenance and inflate them. They would play a game using their feet and hands to keep the "ball" in the air. Sounds like hacky sack to me.

The animal bladder balls were eventually covered with leather for better shape retention."

What are ITIL incident categories?

An Incident is an unplanned interruption to an IT service or reduction in the quality of an IT service. Failure of a Configuration Item that has not yet impacted service is also an Incident.

Incidents are classified as Regular and Major Incidents.

Different organizations will have different definitions for what constitutes a Major Incident. For some organizations, the trigger for 'calling' a Major Incident is when a certain number of users have been impacted. For other organizations, the trigger may be the actual or potential financial loss from the loss of service. If the actual or potential financial loss is over a certain amount, the Incident becomes Major. For some business areas in some industries, there may be risk of injury or loss of life if particular services are not available. Again, this may be the trigger for the Incident becoming Major. Reputational damage to the organization can be another trigger.

What does a speed test for internet result mean?

It shows the approximate download (downstream) and upload (upstream) speeds in either K bits per second or Mega bits per second at that particular time. The speed may vary depending on what type of service you have (cable, satellite, dsl) and how many other users are using those resources at the same time.

Cable subscribers might find the internet speed lower especially when lots of other users are online at the same time. DSL subscribers usually do not see that kind of slow down as the feed comes across your telephone line.
