"When you get into the larger aircraft it becomes like a hotel, with dozens of staff supporting the plane based in a galley area down below. You have very comprehensive cooking facilities, and on larger aircraft we have looked at theatres, with spiral staircases and a Steinway grand piano. The limitations for what you can put inside a plane are pretty much the limits of physics, and even money cannot always overcome that. Even so, people are still always trying to push [the limits]. "
The little cabin behind the cabin
When it comes to that little cabin behind the cabin, better known as the aircraft lavatory, the average passenger cares far more about whether it works than how it works.
How important is reliability? Important enough that in promoting its new Model 650 business jet, Savannah, Ga.-based Gulfstream makes a point of assuring that its toilet "always flushes" (or more precisely, will always flush, since the new jet won't make its first flight until 2009). After all, lavatory amenities such as granite countertops, rosewood veneers and brass trim are quickly forgotten if the toilet doesn't work.
That said, not all working toilets are created equal. You'll find three basic types on business aircraft, and they differ in significant ways. The earliest type-which, thankfully, is now rare-features a simple basin fastened under the seat (the classic "honey bucket"), to be emptied by hand at the end of the flight. This undoubtedly is not high on the list of favorite jobs in the aviation industry.
A second toilet system, typically incorporated in small to midsized business jets, is known as "recirculating blue water." This system employs colored water (due to sanitizing and deodorizing agents) that is filtered and recirculated to save weight. It costs about $15,000 plus installation.
The typical complaint by passengers in aircraft with a recirculating blue water toilet is odor, particularly on long flights. Also, the system is usually serviced through the cabin, which is less than ideal, since the possibility of spillage exists. Some of these systems, however, can be installed with a package that allows for service from outside the airplane.
A third type of toilet uses a vacuum-flush system that deposits waste in a sealed chamber. The system is effective, but its size makes it suited only for large business jets, such as Bombardier's Global series and the Gulfstreams. And while prices for the toilets themselves start at a relatively reasonable $25,000 plus installation, they require a system to allow external servicing that costs about $175,000.
The vacuum-flush system, incidentally, uses the same blue water as a recirculating toilet, but much less of it. And Monogram Systems of Carson, Calif., recently announced a patented innovation that can reduce a vacuum-flush toilet's water use even further-by up to 50 percent, the company claims.
Technology flushes on.
One less thing to worry about
Some people have a fear of flying; others apparently worry about getting stuck on the seat of a vacuum-flush aircraft toilet. Despite the loud noise accompanying the flush, however, the duration is less than three seconds and getting a sufficient "posterial" seal in that time is impossible.
In fact, television's MythBusters took on the task of examining this concern and reached the following conclusion: "With a properly functioning, modern airplane toilet, it's not possible to become stuck to the seat in the manner described, and even if it did somehow happen, the suction would be so weak that unsticking yourself wouldn't be any tougher than standing up normally."

Yeley showing signs of being a contender.
Yeley showing signs of being a contender.
Yeley showing signs of being a contender.
June 1, 2007
J.J. Yeley, the least known of the trio of Nextel Cup drivers at Joe Gibbs Racing, has been quietly building a strong season while teammates Tony Stewart and Denny Hamlin have struggled.
Since crashing on the first lap and finishing last at Texas Motor Speedway in April - one of the darkest moments of his two-year Cup career - the former U.S. Auto Club short track star has been rolling along.
Since that day in Fort Worth, Yeley hasn't finished worse than 21st and has moved up from 22nd to 15th in the Cup standings. He enters Sunday's race at Dover Downs International Speedway after a career-best second-place finish last Sunday in Charlotte.
Yeley got that finish with the help of a late-race fuel strategy, but he was particularly encouraged that he was in the top 15 at Lowe's Motor Speedway for all but two of the 400 laps in NASCAR's longest event.
``I think it would've been different if we had been a 20th-place car and won or ran second,'' Yeley said.
He's hopeful his No. 18 Chevrolet team has turned a corner.
``We haven't put ourselves in the right position in the last third of the race until now,'' Yeley said. ``We are trying as hard as we can, and we're getting closer and closer to where we have the right chemistry. We're running in the top 10 every week and starting to contend for wins.''
BE CAREFUL: There were a lot of surprised folks when Dale Earnhardt Inc. decided to withdraw its appeal to NASCAR after Dale Jr. was docked 100 points and crew chief Tony Eury Jr. was fined $100,000 and suspended six races.
The penalties came after NASCAR discovered illegal brackets on the rear wing of the No. 8 Chevrolet at Darlington Raceway. The appeal was based on DEI's contention that the penalties were too severe.
On his satellite radio show earlier this week, Junior explained why the team decided to drop it and ``just take our lickings.
``Well, sometimes you can go get your appeal and actually get a worse penalty,'' he said. ``There were some discussions about forcing the 8 car to have to qualify into every event, taking away our top 35 exempt deal, where we were automatically locked in the field.''
Earnhardt's 13th in the season standings, just 13 points behind Jamie McMurray in the battle for the 12th and final spot in the Chase for the Nextel Cup championship.
TOUGH PLACE: Joe Nemechek could be excused if he shuddered every time somebody mentioned Dover Downs' Monster Mile.
The concrete one-mile oval has not been kind to the veteran.
``I've had some harrowing experiences at Dover, but I still love the track,'' said Nemechek, who drives for Ginn Racing.
The scariest incident at the Delaware track came in May 2001 when he was testing a Busch car. Nemechek cut a right front tire and crashed, sustaining fractures to his right shoulder blade, ribs and elbow. The injuries forced him to miss five Cup races.
He took another hard blow at Dover when he slammed into the wall in the 2003 fall race. Nemechek was not injured in the fiery accident, but the wreck put the race under caution for 27 laps while track workers repaired the crack in the wall.
A hit from behind in the 2004 spring race sent Nemechek spinning into the wall, causing race-ending damage to his car. In the fall race of the same year, a radiator problem eventually caused Nemechek's engine to expire.
There's more, including a pit-road incident with another car in the 2005 fall race, which spoiled a top 10 run. Last year wasn't any better, with finishes of 35th and 26th.
``I didn't know it was that bad,'' said Nemechek, when reminded of his troubles. ``The good news is that I am due to have that luck cycle turn in our favor.''
STAT OF THE WEEK: Matt Kenseth and Denny Hamlin enter the Dover race having been running at the end of 42 consecutive races. Next on the list is Kevin Harvick with 20 in a row. Kenseth and Hamlin are third and fourth in the standings, while Harvick is seventh.
Re: Yeley showing signs of being a contender.
As pressure mounts, Yeley keeps his cool
J.J. Yeley is a pretty cool customer for someone caught in the crosshairs.
There's talk Yeley might lose his job at Joe Gibbs Racing, where Dale Earnhardt Jr. could replace him in 2008.
Yeley, who joined Gibbs full time last year, isn't stressing, and the rumors haven't interfered with his performances on the track of late in the No. 18 Interstate Batteries Chevrolet.
Yeley finished second in the Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte on May 27. He had a strong car at Dover on June 4 before a shock mount broke, and qualified 11th over the weekend at Pocono before finishing 17th.
"I don't feel any pressure, really, from outside," said Yeley, 30, when asked about his Nextel Cup status at last week's Nextel "Prelude to the Dream" dirt late-model race at Eldora Speedway in Ohio. "I've got a great crew, all the equipment at my disposal. I put pressure on myself to win races. That's my job."
Yeley, a former open-wheel star who won the USAC "Triple Crown" (USAC Silver Crown, Sprint Car and Midget titles) in 2003 (Tony Stewart, his Gibbs teammate, did it in 1995), will be in action Sunday in the Citizens Bank 400 at Michigan International Speedway in Brooklyn. He is 18th in Cup points, with Stewart sixth and Denny Hamlin, the third Gibbs' driver, third.
Yeley knows there will be more Earnhardt talk at MIS. But he won't let it upset him.
"I like Michigan, and I'm going to have some fun," said Yeley, who qualified 14th in last June's race. "It's obviously one of the faster tracks we go to and there are so many grooves to choose from. ... You can easily run four abreast through the corners and down the straightaways. If you look up race track in a dictionary, it should have a picture of Michigan."
Chevy's bigwigs will be at MIS as well as racing bosses from Ford and Dodge. Yeley wants to run well for his team and manufacturer.
"Obviously, you are in the automotive capital of the world and you want to do well," Yeley said. "We've run well at MIS in the past in the Busch and Cup car. Last year we had a pretty good run going and got taken out.
"We've had good cars. Our intermediate track cars, to me, are a little better than we had last season. Hopefully, that will make the difference between running 10th as opposed to having a shot to win the race."
Yeley hasn't set the world on fire since moving across to NASCAR in 2004 to run some Busch and Cup races for Gibbs. But he definitely has made improvements over last season, when he posted three top-10 Cup finishes.
Yeley might just have to win Sunday, or at least record a top-five finish, to keep his job at Gibbs. It appears more and more likely that Earnhardt will sign with Gibbs, which would leave Yeley out in the cold.
Yeley knows he's got a fight on his hands.
"The biggest thing we have to do is make certain we don't create more problems for ourselves," he said. "There's absolutely no reason why we can't be in the top 12 in points. We're going to run hard until the last event."

Five candidates face off Tuesday in the special 16th Senate District primary election.
The front-runners, Republican Andy Vidak and Democrat Leticia Perez, are backed by millions of dollars in state party money.
The other three candidates -- Mohammad Arif, Paulina Miranda and Francisco Ramirez -- have operated on shoe-string budgets and are not expected to pull in much of the vote.
But their presence in the race may be enough to block anyone from getting a majority of the vote, which would necessitate a run-off on July 23 between the two top vote-getters.
Turnout is expected to be low in the contest so every vote cast is expected to have a major impact. The ultimate winner will replace Michael Rubio, who resigned in February.
Here's what you need to know before heading out to the polls Tuesday:
Am I eligible to vote in this election?
Those eligible were sent a sample ballot (unless they opted out of receiving one) or a vote-by-mail ballot packet (for those who vote by mail). Also, you can look up your voting districts at elections.co.kern.ca.us/ elections.
When can I vote?
Polls are open 7 a.m.-8 p.m. Tuesday.
Where do I go?
Your polling site is listed on the back of the sample ballot mailed to you. You also can find yours online at Elections.co.kern.ca.us using the "Your polling place" link or by calling Kern County elections at 868-3590 or 800-452-8683.
When's the best time to go to the polls?
Officials recommend mid-morning or mid-afternoon to avoid long lines that usually form before and after work times, and at lunchtime.

I thought this might be something fun to do to pass some time?
What you do is start at number 1 and post a picture with either the number 1 or the word one spelled out and just keep progressing. A picture of representing the number is not acceptable.
Example: If the number is 3, a picture of 3 cigars will not work. It has to be an actual picture of the number or the number spelled out.
It's easy to play. Just go to google or whatever search engine and type in the number.
I will start......

4 straight: Romney wins Washington GOP caucus
WASHINGTON Mitt Romney rolled to a double-digit victory in Washington state's Republican presidential caucuses Saturday night, his fourth campaign triumph in a row and a fresh show of strength in the run-up to 10 Super Tuesday contests in all regions of the country.
Rick Santorum and Ron Paul battled for second place, while Newt Gingrich ran a distant fourth.
Claiming his victory, Romney said in a statement that the win meant Washington state's voters "do not want a Washington insider in the White House. They want a conservative businessman who understands the private sector and knows how to get the federal government out of the way so that the economy can once again grow vigorously. "
Romney's West Coast victory came on the heels of twin primary triumphs over Santorum earlier in the week in hard-fought Michigan and lightly contested Arizona, as well as a narrow win over Paul in Maine caucuses earlier in February.
Returns from caucuses in 60 percent of Washington state's precincts showed Romney with 37 percent of the vote, while Paul and Santorum each had 24 percent. Gingrich was drawing 11 percent.
Romney's win was worth 30 of the 40 delegates at stake. Paul and Santorum each won five.
That brought Romney's overall total to 203 delegates, according to an Associated Press count that includes party officials who will vote on the selection of a nominee but are not selected at primaries or caucuses. Santorum had 92, Gingrich 33 and Paul 25. It takes 1,144 delegates to win the nomination at the Republican National Convention this summer in Tampa and challenge President Barack Obama in the fall.
The Republican race has shared the political spotlight in the past few days with a controversy in which conservative talk show host Rush Limbaugh called a Georgetown University law student a "slut" and a "prostitute" - an issue that the GOP presidential rivals seemed reluctant to comment on.
Limbaugh apologized on his website during the evening to the woman, Sandra Fluke, who had spoken out publicly in favor of a requirement for most insurance coverage to include contraception.
Romney, Santorum and Gingrich were all campaigning in Ohio - the most intensely contested of the Super Tuesday states - as the first caucus returns were reported.
Romney criticized Obama after a woman attending a campaign rally in Beavercreek said she had a daughter stationed in Afghanistan who believes the U.S. mission there is unclear. The woman asked when Romney would bring the troops home.
"If your daughter is not familiar with the mission that she's on, how in the world can the commander in chief sleep at night, knowing that we have soldiers in harm's way that don't know exactly, precisely, what it is that they're doing there," the former Massachusetts governor said.
He said he'd bring troops home "as soon as humanly possible - as soon as that mission is complete."
Romney also said he would seek the repeal of legislation that passed Congress in 2002 to tighten accounting standards in the wake of the collapse of Enron and an ensuing scandal that cost shareholders millions of dollars.

CHARLESTON - It has no taste, no odor, no color. But it can very easily end your life in a matter of minutes.
Carbon monoxide is a deadly gas that is extremely hard to detect, and is responsible for many deaths all over the world. It is a common hazard that is associated with the incomplete burning of natural gas and carbon-related fuels such as propane, coal, wood and kerosene.
When carbon monoxide is breathed in, it poisons the body by displacing the oxygen levels in the blood and effectively starving vital organs, such as the heart and brain, of oxygen. This can cause loss of consciousness and suffocation, and breathing in a large amount of this gas can take a deadly effect in a matter of minutes.
Although the symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning can vary from person to person, there are common symptoms that include chest tightness, fatigue, headaches, dizziness, nausea and vomiting, drowsiness, chest pain, muscle weakness and loss of consciousness.
If it is caught in time, carbon monoxide poisoning can be reversed, but depending on the level that is breathed, it can result in permanent damage to vital organs. It is particularly dangerous because it can kill without you even sensing its presence, which is the reason behind the gas being dubbed the "silent killer." Those affected simply slip into unconsciousness and never come around again, or they may be asleep at the time they begin inhaling the gas, and fail to wake up again.
Long-term exposure to carbon monoxide in the home is not all that uncommon, and causes thousands of deaths each year. The symptoms of the gas poisoning are often mistaken as the flu or a similar common ailment, as the symptoms are generally viewed as non-specific. Unlike the flu, carbon monoxide poisoning does not produce feverish symptoms or glandular swelling. The symptoms of the poisoning may also come and go, or seem more severe on some occasions, and flu-like symptoms are usually continual until it has passed.
Victims of the gas poisoning may develop health conditions related to long-term exposure that include brain damage, heart problems, major organ dysfunction, memory or cognitive problems, behavioral and personality changes, among a range of other permanent symptoms.
A fatality that occurred approximately one year ago at the Holiday Inn Express on U.S. Highway 119 at the Southridge Shopping Plaza in Charleston was attributed to a carbon monoxide leak from a faulty pipe on the swimming pool heater. Sixteen others were also sickened after breathing the deadly gas. This incident brought the dangers of carbon monoxide poisoning to the forefront in the 2013 state legislative session, and a task force has been formed to further investigate this danger and to draft new laws that will require closer monitoring. The group consists of first responders, emergency personnel, health department employees and school officials.
The leaders serving on the Kanawha County-based committee all readily agree that public awareness is the main key to successfully alleviating this problem. They have created pamphlets that are being handed out to customers of numerous businesses across the state to bring attention to how to properly diagnose and remedy possible hazards in the home.
The "Meals on Wheels" program, which supplies hot meals daily to qualifying senior citizens throughout West Virginia, are distributing the pamphlets in hopes of educating those who are among the most vulnerable to the poison. Another idea is to take the funding provided annually for fire departments and other civic organizations to purchase detectors that are a combination smoke/fire alarm and a carbon monoxide detector, in hopes that this will protect families to a greater extent that they do now.
They remind the public of the need for a monitor in the home and state that the poisoning usually peaks in winter.
General precautionary measures recommended to prevent carbon monoxide poisoning are included in the informative pamphlets, and are as follows:
Ensure that you have all fire-burning appliances checked regularly by a trained and certified professional. This includes furnaces, gas heaters, ovens, fireplaces, etc. Make sure to check chimney flues and vents regularly for blockages that would prevent gas emissions from escaping through the proper channels.
If possible, always opt for fuel appliances that vent fumes to the outside, and ensure they are fitted and checked by professionals. Always follow the instructions when using a fuel-burning device. Do not sleep in a room that has an unvented heater, and do not use a gas stove or a gas oven to heat your home. Don't burn any fuel or use any related appliances in enclosed spaces where fumes can quickly build up. Do not leave the car engine running in the garage, even if the door is partially open. This can build up fumes very quickly that can seep through door cracks into the interior of the home.
In places of employment, make sure that all staff are trained on the dangers, causes, effects and symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning, and encourage them to report anything suspicious.
It is important for everyone to play their part in prevention of carbon monoxide poisoning, whether you are in a private family dwelling or a place of employment. People need to take steps to learn more about the causes, symptoms and treatments, in order to arm themselves as thoroughly as possible against this deadly, undetectable disease.
By raising awareness, training and educating yourself and others, and ensuring that all possible safety precautions are taken, you could help to prevent this deadly gas from damaging or killing someone close to you, or even yourself.
If you have any questions or require additional information on the dangers of carbon monoxide poisoning, you may contact your fuel provider company or your local fire department.

Now the bad news. Well, I am scheduled for an operation on my right hand tomorrow (Friday) afternoon. Now that the swelling is reducing it is clear that the finger is misaligned with the others, indicating the displaced status of the fracture. The scan shows a section of bone that has detached from the knuckle. It looks like the knuckle has compressed back and to the right and the finger is about 5 or 6mm shorter. The surgeon will try and reattach the flake of bone and get everything back into alignment. The real risk for my immediate future (Dakar) is whether he has to cut and then reattach a tendon to manage the repair.
John B
JB -- my advice since this is your first Dakar, ask for a refund from ASO asap. You have not given up, simply postponed it ok? The amount of stress you are going to put your body through, and the short time you have to heal given type of injuries will result in not a pretty picture either way.
(1) you hammer through out of pride, empty the wallet, and go for it. If you finish and cross the finish line you are going to deal with lingering pain or stress further what you have.
(2) you still enter the race, but have to pull out to due re-injuring the same thing or because you try to deal with pain, your mind will not be 100% there. The heel is what I see the biggest problem as you will have to re-balance how you ride the bike. You will crash during the Dakar, no doubt about it, but crashing when not being 100% is not your best option.
(3) wait to decide, but then ASO might not refund you the max amount, given the fantastic exchange rate to the Australian $ it is a big hole.
(4) park the pride and park the bike, heal properly, and enter the 2015 Edition. To me this is the wise decision -- besides my little finger tells me it will be much better than 2014 in terms of route.
fyi, I have hardly ridden 3 months before any Dakar, if I do it is purely for technique, I leave the physical training to be done outside the bike.
Keep us informed and let your body heal properly.

Converting my movies for apple tv
I have a collection of MKV movies and would like to play them on iTunes/AppleTV. However my home theater receiver is an old Sony STR-GX808ES with dolby pro logic. What would be the best way to convert my movies using Subler so that I can play them on my ATV and old receiver but still have them future proof for real surround sound decoding once I upgrade my receiver? I don't really want to encode all of them with 2 channel audio and then have to re do all of them again for full surround once I get a new system.

If you run them through Handbrake with the TV preset you'll end up with a smaller file with both stereo and surround tracks. It creates the stereo track for non-surround devices like watching the movie on an iDevice. If we assume you have an TV1, you probably have it hooked up via analog stereo cables out of the TV to your older receiver. If so, this will work just fine.
If you have a newer gen TV, you don't have analog stereo out. Does that Sony take optical in? If so, can you get it to play any TV video now (such as movie trailers) and hear the stereo audio? If so, all should be fine. You'll get stereo now and be audio future-proofed with the extra surround track for the future.
If you don't have any audio playback now and have a newer TV, you'll probably need to buy one of those optical-to-stereo analog converters to convert the audio out into stereo for your older receiver (thus, optical audio out of the TV into the converter; stereo audio out of the converter into your receiver). OR, you could try feeding the HDMI or optical audio directly to your Television and then using it's audio out options to see if it will convert it to stereo which you can then feed back to the Sony receiver.
You may find it a better option to just go ahead and buy a new receiver. Great quality units are relatively cheap and they come with up to all of the latest bells & whistles.

Study: Brain Games Don't Make You Smarter
A new study has found that people who play computer games to train their brains are not getting any smarter.
The six-week study consisted of participants from viewers of the BBC's science show "Bang Goes the Theory." Over 8,600 people between the ages 18 to 60 were asked to play online brain games designed by researchers to improve their memory, reasoning and other skills for a minimum of 10 minutes a day, three times a week.
This group was compared to another group of over 2,700 people who did not play any brain games, but instead spent a similar amount of time online and answering general knowledge questions. All the participants took an I.Q. test before and after the experiment.
The researchers said those that did the brain training did not do any better on the test after six weeks than the group who spent time surfing the Internet. The people who spent time online scored higher on some sections of the test than those playing the games.
The BBC paid for the study and published it online Tuesday in the journal Nature.
"If you're (playing these games) because they're fun, that's absolutely fine," Adrian Owen, assistant director of the Cognition and Brain Sciences unit at Britain's Medical Research Council and the study's lead author, told the Associated Press. "But if you're expecting (these games) to improve your I.Q., our data suggests this isn't the case," he said during a press briefing on Tuesday.
Nintendo said their D. Kawashima brain-training games did not claim to be scientifically proven to improve cognitive function. The company said in a statement to BBC that their games require users to perform a number of "fun challenges incorporating simple arithmetic, memorization and reading."
"In this way it is like a workout for the brain and the challenges in the game can help stimulate the player's brain," it said.
Dr. Adrian Owen, a neuroscientists at the Medical Research Council, told BBC news that "the results are clear."
"Statistically, there are no significant differences between the improvements seen in participants who played our brain training games, and those who just went on the Internet for the same length of time."
However, Steve Aldrich, CEO of Posit Science, said the study did not apply to its products. He said the company's games have been proven to boost brainpower and were funded in part by the U.S. National Institutes of Health.
"Their conclusion would be like saying, 'I cannot run a mile in under 4 minutes and therefore it is impossible to do so," Aldrich told the AP.
Posit Science has been published in journals like the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, which showed that their games improved memory in older people.
Millions of people around the world play computer games online that are marketed by companies like Nintendo to improve memory, reasoning and cognitive skills. However, few studies have examined the games' effectiveness.
"There is precious little evidence to suggest the skills used in these games transfer to the real world," Art Kramer, a professor of psychology and neuroscience at the University of Illinois, told the AP.
Kramer said some brain games had small effects in improving people's skills. "Learning is very specific," he said. "Unless the component you are trained in actually exists in the real world, any transfer will be pretty minimal."
Kramer said people would be better off getting some exercise instead of playing brain games. He said physical activity could spark new connections between neurons and produce new brain cells. "Fitness changes the building blocks of the brain's structure," he said.
According to Kramer, some brain training games worked better than others. He said Posit Science made some games that proved to have modest benefits, including improved memory in older people.
Other experts say that brain games might be useful, but only if they were not fun.
"If you set the level for these games to a very high level where you don't get the answers very often and it really annoys you, then it may be useful," Philip Adey, an emeritus professor of psychology and neuroscience at King's College in London, told the AP.
Adey said that people probably are not being challenged if they are enjoying the brain games, and they might as well be playing a regular video game.
He said people should consider learning a new language or sport if they want to improve their brainpower. "To stimulate the intellect, you need a real challenge," Adey said, adding computer games were not an easy shortcut. "Getting smart is hard work."

i did not fount in document symantec web gateways either monitor and block https traffice or not ?
Kindly let me know .
thanks in advance :D
Comments 8 Comments • Jump to latest comment
The Symantec Web Gateway V5 is due to be released near the end of the year however the date is subject to change.
Yes, the Web Gateway v4.5 can not scan https traffic. The only thing it can currently do is allow, block, or monitor access to all https/ssl traffic using the Application Control module.
Actually sorry, after rereading, maybe what you want to do is currently available with the Application Control module if you are just looking to Block or Monitor all SSL/HTTPS traffic on a per policy basis.
The big thing we can't do now is scan uploads or downloads from https sites.
So Allow let's the traffic through without logging at all, Monitoring allows it through but logs that it is seeing https traffic(it doesn't log the sites being accessed), Block(blocks the https traffic).
Found this doc, but it doesn't reallly refer to what's available using Application Control:

Padres seek win in L.A. to hold off the Giants
It would behoove the Padres to win tonight against right-hander Vicente Padilla because Chad Billingsley is going Thursday for the Dodgers. Billingsley has blanked the Padres -- who didn't have Ryan Ludwick and Miguel Tejada at the time -- the last two times he has faced them.
Padilla will be making his first start against the Padres at Dodgers Stadium. He is 2-1 lifetime against the Padres with a 3.32 ERA in 17 games (eight starts).
Padilla was on the disabled list from April 23-June 19 with an inflamed radial nerve in his pitching arm. Since returning from the disabled list, Padilla is 3-2 with a 2.12 ERA and holding opposing hitters to a .183 average.
LeBlanc is 1-3 overall against the Dodgers with a 4.91 ERA in five starts. However, he allowed only one run on two hits over seven innings in his previous start against the Dodgers this season, coming out on the short end of a 1-0 pitching duel against Billingsley on May 16. LeBlanc is 3-4 on the road this season with a 4.74 ERA in eight starts.

Since the outbreak of the subprime crisis in mid 2007, the world's financial markets have suffered unprecedented turmoil. Many banks, even large institutions that had previously been considered icons of stability, failed or had to be rescued or nationalised by their governments. The financial crisis has prompted regulators in the US and Europe to reexamine how much capital is enough capital for banks. Regulators generally agree that banks were too highly leveraged and that, in the future, banks should be required to have more capital. Discussion has turned to contingent capital (another form of hybrid capital) as a necessary component of capital going forward.

Comments Thread For: Matthysse: Maidana is Ordinary, I'm More Complete
Lucas Matthysse (28-2, 26KOs) is promising to offer a much better performance than his countryman, Marcos Maidana, on September 17th at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. Maidana won a close majority decision over Erik Morales in April, and now Matthysse gets his chance to face the Mexican warrior. Matthysse and Maidana fought several times when they were amateurs in Argentina.

At this point in his career, Morales is not faster then Alexander or Judah
so I like Matthysse chances against Morales...as long as the "FIX" is not in and Matthysse all of a sudden is not fighting the same as he did against Alexander and Zab for "SOME REASON"
Golden Boy Promotion is just as questionable as Top Rank when it comes to "TAMPERING WITH MATCHES" IMO especially after that Mares fight
if both come to fight and NO BS is going on behind the sense to allow Morales to make history for himself and win that WBC Title...then I like Lucas...but I just have a bad feeling we will once against see something STRANGE in this fight

You're the same because you've had Alexander and Judah both hut but you couldn't get them out of there. Or we can actually say Maidana is better because he made Ortiz quit.

Hmmm, even Matthysse compliments Maidana's power. I still agree though, Matthysse is really a complete fighter.

If Maidana beats Guerrero, he is much better than Matthysse. That means Maidana would have big wins over Ortiz and Guerrero. If Matthysse wasn't a crappy finisher he probably could have gotten Alexander and Judah out when he had them hurt. Instead he gets to cry about being robbed because he sucks at finishing a wounded fighter.

No Robots in Disguise for GM
ŌĆ£Truck owners want trucks,ŌĆØ says General Motors global design guru Ed Welburn here. Not, he adds, vehicles that ŌĆ£do a lot of gymnastics and transformations.ŌĆØ
WelburnŌĆÖs remarks are aimed in the general direction of competitors such as Toyota and Chrysler. The former has shown a midsize-truck concept, the A-Bat, that features a fold-down midgate, while ChryslerŌĆÖs Rampage boasts a dry storage area under the cargo bed that can accommodate a standard-size sheet of plywood.
Ironically, GM has gotten a lot of mileage from its association with the ŌĆ£TransformersŌĆØ movie franchise. Sci-fi characters of the same name morph from vehicles such as the Chevrolet Camaro into formidable robot warriors.
Criticism From Pillar to Post
Fair or not (or perhaps just jealous), a wide range of industry executives express disappointment with the design direction demonstrated by DaimlerŌĆÖs Mercedes-Benz cars, telling WardŌĆÖs the luxury-vehicle maker has lost its way.
No criticism is too harsh. In a swipe at the brandŌĆÖs heritage, which is steeped in elegance and sportiness, one high-ranking suit from Germany declares the new E-Class sedan is ŌĆ£no longer German.ŌĆØ
But a design-community insider gives kudos to MercedesŌĆÖ radical decision to roll out the E-Coupe, unencumbered by a B-pillar. With the vast array of crashworthiness regulations affecting design, ŌĆ£It takes guts to do a pillar-less car,ŌĆØ he tells WardŌĆÖs.
Some Day My Prince Will Come
FiatŌĆÖs core brand adopts a playful theme at its auto show stand here.
With its pastel-shaded backdrops, the decor resembles a childrenŌĆÖs nursery, with cars such as the pint-sized Fiat 500 strewn about like so many toys. Meanwhile, Disney music wafts in the background, including ŌĆ£Some Day My Prince Will Come.ŌĆØ
Journalists wonder if Fiat is sending a subliminal message about its elusive CEO Sergio Marchionne.
In bygone days, lapel pins were, for high-school sweethearts, an outward sign of devotion.
So itŌĆÖs fitting that Siegfried Wolf declares his commitment to the marriage of Magna and General MotorsŌĆÖ Adam Opel GmbH.
With the ink barely dry on GMŌĆÖs acceptance of a Magna-led consortiumŌĆÖs bid to buy a partial stake in Opel, Wolf, the mega-supplierŌĆÖs co-CEO, shows up at the auto makerŌĆÖs press conference sporting OpelŌĆÖs lightning-bolt logo on his jacket.

It's official: Cesc Fabregas is back in London, this time with Chelsea
Jun 12, 2014, 12:12 PM EDT
Francesc Fàbregas is back in the Premier League.
The 27-year-old Spanish national team midfielder will return from the World Cup with a new London club, agreeing to join Chelsea after spending 2011-14 with Barcelona.
Of course, "Cesc" played the first nine years of his career with Arsenal.
"I do feel that I have unfinished business in the Premier League and now is the right time for my return.
"Yes, everyone knows that Arsenal had the first option to sign me. They decided not to take up this option and therefore it wasn't meant to be. I wish them well in the future.
"I considered all the other offers very carefully and I firmly believe that Chelsea is the best choice. They match my footballing ambitions with their hunger and desire to win trophies.
"They have an amazing squad of players and an incredible manager. I am fully committed to this team and I can't wait to start playing."
Fabregas will team up with manager Jose Mourinho and a Chelsea squad that finished 2013/14 as UEFA Champions League semifinalists and in the Premier League's No. 3 slot.

Kinda sad to see him go, but his purchase was a very unnecessary one and probably ended up costing Barca Thiago.
- dante170 - Jun 12, 2014 at 3:06 PM
Although I believe Cesc is past his prime, solid pick up for chelski
- lewpuls - Jun 12, 2014 at 4:05 PM
Revolting to Arsenal fans. But if Arsene wouldn't take him, we can only shrug our shoulders and shake our heads.
- thefutureofoil - Jun 12, 2014 at 6:18 PM
Guess the grass wasn't greener with Barca, eh?
- mrhyperpants - Jun 12, 2014 at 11:06 PM
Brilliant news. Haha so funny to see my friends that support arsenal moaning. Brought a even bigger smile to my face.

Power, water supply cut off to one hostel as stir intensifies
It was a day of drama for the nurses of corporate hospitals who are demanding higher salary and better work benefits.
Ever since the nurses announced their decision to go on strike, there has been subtle pressure on them from the management to give up their demand, the nurses say. At one hostel for women nurses in Kottivakkam power and water supply was cut for two days, according to the agitating nurses.
A few nurses called The Hindu on Sunday and said that they had been told to vacate the hostel immediately. Following harassment from the hostel authorities and the warden, the nurses approached the All India Democratic Women's Association. On Sunday, representatives of the Communist Party of India (Marxist) and AIDWA held discussions with the hostel authorities and the nurses, after which power and water supply were restored.
Most of the nurses working in the major corporate hospitals in city are migrants. A majority of them are from the neighbouring state of Kerala. In Fortis Malar, 110 of the 180 nurses and half of the around 800 nurses in Apollo Hospitals are from Kerala.
Meanwhile, it is reliably learnt that another round of discussion is proposed to be held with the managements of the hospital, representatives of the nurses and the Additional Commissioner of Labour to sort out the issue. The agitating nurses have asked for a substantial hike in salary and discontinuing the practice of executing bonds for a period of two years among other things.
Nurses began their agitation on Thursday by staging a sit-in at Madras Medical Mission in Mogappair.
On Friday, nurses from the intensive medical care unit lent their support and on Saturday, nurses from Fortis Malar also joined the agitation by staging a sit-in at their hospital in Adyar. With nurses uniting under the banner of the All India Private Nurses' Association, managements of six major hospitals including Apollo, Fortis Malar, MIOT, Madras Medical Mission, Global and Billroth Hospitals issued a joint statement on Saturday calling for discussions on raising their salary. The statement further clarified that besides salary, the nurses received free boarding and lodging and training.

China's police criticised for listing frequently-caught beggars
Published on Aug 20, 2012 4:49 PM
SHANGHAI (CHINA DAILY/ASIA NEWS NETWORK) - A list ranking the beggars most frequently caught on Shanghai's metro trains since 2008 has caused controversy, with many people saying there should be greater sympathy toward this disadvantaged group.
The list was recently published online by the Xujiahui police station of Shanghai public security bureau urban rail and bus corps.
Topping the list is a 22-year-old illiterate man from Liaoning province who lives near the train station, has broken legs and a record of being caught begging on metro trains by police 309 times. Ranking second is an 88-year-old woman from Anhui province who has been caught 303 times. Police said she would beg whenever she lost money from "her mahjong gambling party".
The release of the list coincides with the launch of a campaign by the Xujiahui police station called "Say No to Beggars On the Metro". The campaign encourages metro riders to send an instant text or voice message through Weixin, a popular social networking application on mobile phones, if they spot a beggar on the train between 10am to 2pm and 6pm to 10pm. These are the peak hours for beggars to "work" on the metro.

U.K. spending plans unveiled last week increase certainty for companies to invest, Chief Treasury Secretary Danny Alexander said, as his Cabinet colleague Francis Maude signaled further government cuts.
A U.K. exit from the European Union would kill the recovery "stone dead," Chief Secretary to the Treasury Danny Alexander said today as he sought to drum up support for his Liberal Democrats ahead of EU elections.
U.K. Chief Secretary to the Treasury Danny Alexander said the Scottish National Party's plan for a currency union with the U.K. after independence is a "false idea" with "no credible support."
"Tax cuts for working people are only happening because we Liberal Democrats fought for it every day in coalition."

how are the taste of the shakes honestly? i want something good . if it tastes like all the other ones i dont want to buy it
by: ahardenbrook
by: evammentorp
The shake recipes are really good. The first day I used it, I just put it in water and blended it with some ice and fruit. It was hard to get down. The recipes do a really good job of mixing the shake powder with other flavors so it isn't as strong. I really do like this mix over any other one I have tried. It doesn't leave the powder coating on my tongue like other ones did.
by: keairal
I REALLY enjoy the shakes. I have 2 everyday. My favorite is the vanilla because it's so versatile but I love the chocolate flavored one as well. Check out the recipes on here for some yummy shakes. It's more like a treat than a typical protein shake but still super healthy for you!

Village Life - Comares: Comares is a very pretty pueblo blanco in a dramatic location. Unchanged, with views in every direction, the narrow streets turn steeply away from the main Plaza with its welcoming bar. Life is unhurried here. A bank with cash machine, good local shop with fresh produce, chemists, tobacconists and 6 bar/restaurants with local dishes & tapas will make your holiday at Villa Romo a convenient place to stay.
Town & Beach Facilities: Velez Malaga is a large market town where you will find all your shopping requirements including: Modern Shopping centre, Cinemar complex, hospital, water park, bowling centre and specialist shops.
Torre Del Mar is the nearest Mediterranean Beach resort. Over 2 kms of wide sandy beaches dotted with beach bars specialising in fish & seafood. Along the promenade you will find entertainment for all ages. Rent a bike or go horse riding on the beach nearby. At Caleta de Velez, the local fishing port and marina 5 mins drive East, there are several excellent eateries next to the beach & boats.
Benamargossa, approx 20 mins from Villa Romo, has a 24 hour emergency medical centre.
Exploring Andalucia: Villa Romo is the perfect rural location from which to visit the key sights of Andalucia:
Malaga City, with castle & hilltop fort, Picasso museum, great shopping and tapas bars is 1 hour.
Granada & Alhambra Palace ( a must see!) is around 90 mins drive. Book in advance online/at local BBVA bank.
Seville & Cordoba are a little further on good roads - but worth the effort.
Antequerra is less than 1 hour and full of attractive buildings and monuments. Torcal National Park is nearby.
Nerja, with famous caves and good sandy beaches, takes 1 hour by car...............And if you want to sample the high life, Marbella & Puerto Banus is a fun day trip!
We, Carl and Maria Cullimore, came to Comares in 1999 with the idea of buying a holiday home…and we are still here!
We continue to be thrilled by the views and beautiful, colourful landscape of Andalusia. The white washed village of Comares is both unique and unspoiled yet only an hour from Malaga. The perfect rural base to relax and explore.
La Paz, our finca meaning "peace" was renovated and a swimming pool was built on the hillside. We converted part of the farmhouse to a self contained studio overlooking the pool and our holiday rentals idea became a reality when we welcomed our first guests in 2002.
Our next project was Villa Romo, spacious accommodation with pool and popular with families. Friends owning properties locally and wishing to rent their villas for holidays have entrusted us with the keys and management responsibilities.
We are proud to showcase a small, quality selection of individual villas, beach houses, apartments and even a seaside Fisherman's Cottage. We provide a professional, bespoke service which can include the rental marketing and maintenance of holiday properties in the Axarquia region of Andalusia.

Because it is totally private with amazing far reaching views. It is a home from home.
It offers space but retains a cozy feel. Very good lay out all on one level. Good base to explore areas of interest.
In September 2014 myself and my partner returned to Villa Roma for the second time. We don't often go back to the same place twice as there are so many beautiful places in the world but we have yet to find anywhere as perfect as Villa Roma. The Villa is amazing especially the pool and the outside area. The weather was so beautiful we hardly spent any time inside. Lazy days spent in the pool and balmy evenings, with outside dining washed down with a bottle of wine or a few beers, (thanks to Carl and Maria for getting the beers in!) This place is not for you if you want an action packed holiday but will be perfect if you want a lazy week in the sun with nothing to do except look at the beautiful views and cool off in the pool. We found our little piece of heaven and will be returning soon, hopefully in 2015!
We found the accommodation massive with everything we needed to make our holiday very relaxed and stress free. A real feeling of being away from it all. We would return.
Wonderful place. Excellent villa with everything you need to have a fantastic time. Children loved it. Great clean pool. The place is just perfect. We will definitely come back to the villa to enjoy it again. The owners were lovely and caring. The villa was very clean and the kitchen is a paradise for those ones who love cooking. We will definitely recommend this property to anyone who would like to spend some time away from it all.
We had a very relaxing stay at Villa Romo at the end of September 2013. It met all our initial requirements - up in the hills, private and with a pool and barbecue. The added bonus for us was the size of the villa itself - it is suitable for extended families or groups, and there were only three of us! We wanted for nothing in terms of kitchen equipment, evening entertainment and outdoor facilities, and the weather was perfect for us as well.
The owners were very friendly and accomodating and having stayed at a few different villas in Andalucia and on the Costa Blanca, we also feel that Villa Romo offers excellent value for money.
We would recommend Villa Romo to anyone who is looking for a relaxing holiday and is not too worried about visiting bars and restaurants in the evenings (we came with our three year old with another on the way).
Wow wow wow, pretty much sums up Villa Romo!
We have just returned from a fabulous 2 weeks here. There was 9 in our group 4 adults and 5 children.
All of us were totally in love with our paradise in the mountains.
The roads to Villa Romo are yes a little daunting at first, but you soon get used to all the twist and turns and start to enjoy it!!
We had many a mystery tour on these fun roads and always ended up in a beautifull traditional little bar/ cafe with cold beer and sangria waiting!!!
The villa it self is what we decided to call paradise! It was perfect in every way, had everything you would need and want for a very comfortable stay.
Carl and Maria were fabulous, very helpful and friendly.
We spent most nights sitting out eating a BBQ and watching the brightest stars, it really is heaven.
The pool was a balmy 29 deg for our entire stay and temperatures sored into high 30s - low 40s so the pool was glorious.
Our overall holiday with our best friends was everything we wanted it to be.
It's a beautifull peaceful haven away from all hustle and bustle of high rise resorts. You look out and all you see are mountains, it's perfect. No noise other than the odd dog bark, the crickets fanning themselves and the humming of a bee. If a relaxing chilled out holiday is what your after Villa Romo is for you too!
To sum up its PERFECT :))))))
Just returned from Villa Romo and we all had a great time!
The villa is located up in the hills about an hour from Malaga airport and a car is essential.
We had late flights so arrived late but the directions provided made the journey relatively easy.
The first thing to state is this is not the place for you if you want a lively holiday. Carl makes this point clearly on his website and was exactly what we expected and wanted.
There is not really anywhere you can walk to in terms of bars of shops with Comares being about 7km away. The roads are not great but you quickly get used to them!
We traveled as a mixed group of friends and had a great time.
The Villa itself enjoys an isolated position in the hills and is lovely. A steep drive leads up to a pool area with plenty of loungers and chairs around. There are 2 tables for al fresco dining and a huge barbeque which we used extensively. The kitchen is large and has everything you could possible need.
The Villa is finished and furnished to a very high standard and was extremely comfortable for us.
Carl made us feel very welcome and provided lots of good advice and tips about the area.
Villa Romo is perfect for large groups who want a quiet, villa based holiday and would be good for kids. If you want easy access to bars, clubs and shops, this is probably not right for you but we loved it.
Villa Romo is set in a rural Axarquia, a hilly region 40 minutes drive from the coast and 10 minutes from Comares village. Comares is one of the highest villages in the Axarquia, approx 800 metres above sea level, with dramatic views all the way to the Mediterranean, some 25 kms distant. Mostly unchanged by modern living on the coast, Inland Axarquia is a quiet area of hills and windy roads; the views are fantastic! This is the place to unwind and go with the slower pace of life. Malaga city and airport is a 1 hour drive - max. Granada airport is around 80 mins and the Alhambra Palace 10 mins further. Villa Romo is centrally located for touring Andalucia; Seville, Cordoba and Antequerra are easily reached by good roads. Nerja, with famous caves and good beaches, is 1 hour by car.
Villa Romo is accessed directly from a minor country road onto a private driveway. Ample off road parking for 4 cars/caravan/camper - please ask.
