text: The Goku wiki last edited by UltimateInferno on 07/08/15 09:25AM View full history OriginKakarrot's parents plot to save their son.The son of Bardock, a low-class Saiyan warrior; and Gi-ne, Kakarot was born on Planet Vegeta in or around Age 737. Sensing the impeding danger to the Saiyan race from Frieza, Kakarot's parents secretly sent him off planet to Earth when he was only three years old.On Earth he was taken in by the elderly Son Gohan, who named him Son Goku. Initially a difficult and violent child, Goku suffered head trauma in an accident and became more friendly and amenable after recovering. Gohan instructed him in martial arts, and became aware of the transformations that Goku underwent when he was exposed to the full moon. He instructed the boy never to look at the moon, but Goku disobeyed and transformed into a Great Ape. While in this transformed state, he accidentally murdered Gohan. After the death of his adoptive grandfather, Goku essentially raised himself alone in the mountains.CreationGoku was created by Akira Toriyama . He is loosely based on the character Sun Wukong from Journey to the West by Wu Cheng'en.Major Story ArcsDragon BallsNow eleven or twelve, Goku encounters a new person for the first time in his life, a woman named Bulma. He joins her on her quest for the seven Dragon Balls, and the pair go through a number of adventures, gathering new companions and acquaintances as they go, including Master Roshi, who instructs him further in martial arts and teaches him many of his important moves. They manage to gather six of the seven Dragon Balls, but lose them when they are taken captive. Goku helps his friends escape captivity by becoming a Great Ape, which leads to speculation on whether or not he is human. Goku decides to leave his friends for a time and returns to Master Roshi for training. During this time he meets Krillin, another student with whom he becomes friends. Goku participates in the 21st World Martial Arts Tournament, and performs well, though he loses in the final round after transforming into a Great Ape and back, depleting his energy. After the tournament, Goku goes to see the world, having many adventures as he searches for the Dragon Ball that had been left to him by his grandfather. During this quest he has continual conflicts with the mysterious Red Ribbon Army and various agents sent by them to kill him. Goku eventually defeats the army single-handedly, and acquires six Dragon Balls. He attempts to uncover the final Dragon Ball's location with the help of a fortuneteller named Baba, who tells him its location after he and his friends battle five of her warriors. He acquires the Ball after a fight with the current possessor, and uses the Balls to summon the dragon Shenron, using his wish to bring a friend back to life. He continues to train, and eventually participates in the 22nd World Martial Arts Tournament. He loses in the finals to Tien Shinhan.King PiccoloGoku's friend Krillin is murdered by one of King Piccolo's sons, Tambourine. Attempting to avenge his friend, he is defeated by Tambourine, because he was still weak from his fight with Tien, but a fully recovered goku kills him easily in a later confrontation. He is then confronted by King Piccolo himself, who almost kills Goku, After recovering from his defeat, he seeks out the Ultra Divine Water, which could unlock his powers or kill him. Surviving the Water, he travels to the castle of King Furry, where he kills another of Piccolo's sons and challenges the King himself to a fight. The pair have a drawn-out and bitter fight that leaves both horribly wounded. Ultimately, Goku manages to kill Piccolo by punching through his chest. With his dying breath Piccolo spits out an egg that contains his reincarnation, Piccolo Jr. Unaware of this, Goku begins to search for a possible way to revive the dragon Shenron. This leads him to the Guardian of Earth, Kami, and ultimately to the resurrection of all the friends who had been killed by Piccolo. Goku then begins training with Kami and Mr Popo in order to prepare for the 23rd World Martial Arts Tournament. Despite suffering extreme injuries, Goku defeats Piccolo in the final round, becoming the winner of the tournament. Goku and Chi-chi, a young woman he had met while travelling, get married.SaiyanNow living with his wife and young son, Gohan, Goku's life is interrupted by the arrival of Raditz, his long-lost brother. Raditz informs him of his Saiyan heritage, as well as telling him that he was meant to take over the Earth. Refusing to carry out this mission, Goku is attacked by Raditz, who kidnaps Gohan and instructs him to kill a hundred humans or have his son murdered. Goku joins forces with Piccolo, and together with the help of Gohan they defeat Raditz, though Goku also dies. Traveling through the Other World, Goku begins training for the imminent arrival of more Saiyans. His friends wish him back to life, but it takes him sometime to arrive, and by the time he does many of his friends have been killed by the Saiyans, Vegeta and Nappa. Goku easily defeats Nappa, and manages to defeat Vegeta after a protracted battle. He chooses to spare the injured Vegeta's life after the battle.FriezaSeverely injured, Goku spends some time in hospital before being completely healed by a Senzu Bean. Goku then travels to the planet Namek where his friends are searching for the Namekian Dragon Balls. There, he engages in battles with members of the Ginyu Force, the elite fighters of the villainous Frieza. He manages to defeat many of them, but is seriously wounded after a quarrel with their leader due to a special attack which enabled the user to exchange bodies with victims. He retreats to be healed, and in the meantime Frieza arrives and attacks Goku's friends. He returns to find the battle turning against his friends. Enraged by the death of Krillin, Goku transforms into his Super Saiyan form, which turns the tide of the battle in his favor. Ultimately, he defeats Frieza. He leaves the planet in a Ginyu Force ship, which takes him to the planet Yardrat. His friends back on Earth believe him to be dead, but later learn he is alive when they attempt to resurrect him. He declines to return to Earth and remains on Yardrat for some time more, learning the skill of Instant Transmission while there.AndroidReturning to Earth after two years, Goku encounters Trunks, the son of Bulma and Vegeta from the future. The boy warns him about future events, and provides him with a cure for a virus he will contract in the near future. He and his friends spend three years training for the arrival of two androids, Android 19 and Android 20. When they arrive Goku is unable to fight at full strength due to the sudden onset of the virus he was warned of. He is taken from the battlefield to be cured of the virus. He is hunted by the artificial beings android 18 , 17 and the newly awakened 16 of whom were created to destroy Goku. At this time a new villain rises, named Cell . Cell absorbs both 17 and 18. At this time Goku's heart virus is also cured. Goku, Gohan, Vegeta and Trunks travel to the Hyperbolic Time Chamber to undergo intense training; there, Gohan is revealed to be potentially more powerful than Goku. They emerge from the chamber and Goku begins preparing to battle Cell, as well as getting a new Guardian of Earth, Dende, to create new Dragon Balls so that he can set right what Cell has put wrong. At the Cell Games, Goku battles Cell at full strength, but finds himself unable to defeat his opponent. He cedes the match, trusting Gohan to defeat Cell. Gohan does so, and Cell attempts to self-destruct and destroy the planet as revenge. Goku steps in and uses Instant Transmission to transport both of them to King Kai's planet , resulting in both his and Cell's deaths as well as King Kai's. Cell manages to resurrect himself, and Goku, trapped in the Other World, encourages Gohan to fight him. After Cell is finally completely destroyed, Goku insists he be allowed to remain dead, since he believes that all the troubles on Earth were caused due to him . Majin BuuHe returns to Earth for a brief period seven years later to participate in the 25th World Martial Arts Tournament. There, he meets his youngest son, Goten, and becomes embroiled in defeating the evil wizard Babidi, who orchestrates the theft of Gohan's Super Saiyan energy. They attack Babidi's ship, and Babidi possesses Vegeta, then sets Vegeta and Goku to fighting one another. The pair fight for some time before Goku attempts to halt the fight so that they can team up to defeat Babidi's monster, Majin Buu. He is knocked unconscious by Vegeta, who then abandons him. He seeks healing from Dende and teleports all his friends to himself, teaching Trunks and Goten how to perform the Fusion Dance, which will combine them into a far more powerful being. Goku then fights Majin Buu, using his powerful Super Saiyan 3 form. He easily holds his own against the monster, but does not defeat it. The strain of maintaining the form forces him to return to the Other World. There, he observes the fight between Majin Buu and the newly-created Gotenks via a crystal globe. Gotenks performs well, but is ultimately unable to defeat the monster and is absorbed into it, as is Gohan. Goku is returned to Earth by the sacrifice of a friend. He and Vegeta fuse to become Vegito, easily defeating the monster. Vegito allows itself to be absorbed into the monster to rescue its friends and family. After a brief battle, it succeeds and Vegeta and Goku return to their normal bodies. Majin Buu is forced to transform back into its original form, Kid Buu. Kid Buu destroys the planet, briefly killing most inhabitants, though they are soon restored. Goku fights Kid Buu, and gathers energy from most sentient beings around him (using the Genki Dama Technique) to destroy Kid Buu.Powers and AbilitiesAs a Saiyan, Goku possesses all the powers inherent to his race. He is super-humanly strong and durable, and possesses enhanced speed and reflexes. He can undergo Saiyan transformations that multiply his power by 50 each time, the first by 50, second by 100, and the third by 150. Goku has been known to take every possible advanced Saiyan form unlike Vegeta and Gohan who only reached Super Saiyan 2. However, it is speculated that since Gotenks reached Super Saiyan 3, Goten and Trunks both acquired the form, but for now they cannot handle the strain of the form, being very young. Goku can generate energy blasts from an inner energy called ki, notably in the form of the Kamehameha Wave. He can teleport anywhere he wants instantly via Instant Transmission. He is capable of unaided flight, and was capable of aided flight through the use of a small flying cloud called the Flying Nimbus. He is capable of transforming into a Great Ape when he is looking at the moon and possesses his tail. However Goku lost his tail in Dragon Ball. Goku is displayed as being able to lift up to 160 tons without transforming, although the limit may be higher. This means he could lift 160,000 tons as Super Saiyan 4.TechniquesAfterimage Technique - A typical distraction technique where through a short burst of speed Goku is able to leave an afterimage of his body behind which often causes the opponent to attack. Goku as a child in the 21st World Martial Arts tournament could leave 3 images behind, but by the time of the cell games Goku can leave an innumerable number of afterimages behind.Continuous Kamehameha - Goku's version of the Continuous Energy Volley where Goku fires many small blasts of energy in rapid succession in order to cause great damage. The technique has the downside of leaving a large smokescreen from the explosions so if the attack fails it often gives the enemy a sneak attack.Crazy Fist - A technique Goku came up with on the fly to counter Jackie Chun's Drunken Fist technique. Goku hopes around like a monkey giving him an air of unpredictability and uses his tail more.Destructo Disk - A technique taken from Krillin where Goku forms a flat energy disk that can cut through most objects and enemies. Due to the lethal nature of the attack Goku only uses it when absolutely necessary, like cutting off Gohan's tail when he transformed.Dragon Fist - One of Goku's ultimate techniques and the only one he created himself. Goku charges his fist with a golden ki dragon that resembeles Shenron and punches the opponent resulting in the dragon either devouring or impaling the opponent. This move is easily Goku's most powerful move besides the spirit bomb as he was able to blast a hole in Omega Shenron's chest who was more powerful than a Super Saiyan 4 Goku.Dragonthrow - Goku's trademark grapple where he grabs a leg, tail, tentacle, or other extremity and spins them around and hammer throws them typically into a mountain.Flight - Goku is able to manipulate his ki to self propel himself for flight. Goku can either levitate lightly or full on fly at high speed.Fusion Dance - Goku learned the technique fro its creators the Metamorans while in the Other World. Goku can perform the dance with Vegeta in order to merge their bodies to form Gogeta. The techniques downside is that it only lasts for half an hour.Hasshu-Ken - A technique copied and improved from King Chappa where Goku moves his arms so fast it appears he has eight arms for combat. This was used to counter Tien's Four Witches technique.Homing Energy Wave - Goku can fire an energy wave that tracks and homes in on his opponent by locking onto their energy signature.Instant Transmission - A technique that Goku learned from the Yardrats after his battle with Frieza. Goku typically places two fingers on his forehead and senses a ki signature and the instantly teleports to that location. The technique requires concentration so Goku can be interrupted or stopped by pressing the attack.Janken Fist - Goku's original signature technique that was taught to him by his Grandpa Gohan. Gokku calls out the name of the attack and delivers either a punch (rock), slap (paper), or eye poke (scissors).Kiai - An invisble energy wave that is often used to defeat and demoralize weaker opponents or cancel out attacks without using too much energy. Goku used this to defeat Chi-Chi and to cancel out Nappa's Break Cannon.Kaio-ken (Pronounced"KAI-o-ken") - One of Goku's signature techniques that was taught to him by King Kai. King Kai has said that Goku is the sole student to master the attack so Goku is probably the sole user besides King Kai himself. The technique multiples Goku's ki power by 2X or more depending on how much Goku's body can take. Goku by the time of his battle with Frieza could multiple his ki by 20 times. The technique strains Goku's body so he must use it sparingly. This technique was superseded by the Super Saiyan transformation which put out more power, but put less strain on his body.Kamehameha - Goku's most used technique and the staple move of the Turtle School invented by Master Roshi. Goku copied this move after watching Roshi perform it once and continued to use it for the rest of his life. The Kamehameha is a blue energy wave fired from cupped hands after pronouncing the name of the attack. Goku can perform many variations of the move like shooting it one handed, firing it from his feet, bending the kamehameha, and others.Mimicry - Goku has a knack for for mimicking ki attacks after he has seen them performed. Goku learns the Kamehameha, Destructo Disk, Hasshu-Ken, and Solar Flare this way.Solar Flare - A technique copied from Tien Shinhan where Goku places his hands around his face and releases a blinding flash of light used to blind opponents for either a quick getaway or as an opening for an attack.Spirit Bomb - Goku's most powerful move outright where Goku gathers energy from the area around him to form a positive energy ball that is highly effective against beings of evil. Goku can expand his horizon and take energy from surrounding planets even taking a galaxy wide drain to defeat Kid Buu and a universe drain for Omega Shenron. The technique takes a very long time to complete so Goku typically needs someone like Piccolo or Vegeta to run interferenceSuper Kaio-ken - A last resort move where Goku uses the Kaio-Ken along with the Super Saiyan transformation for a very powerful combination. This move is very taxing on Goku's body as one punch was enough to cause Goku to run out of breath. Goku used this technique once against Pikkon during the Other World Tournament.Telekinesis - Goku is able to use ki to move objects with his mind, he demonstrated this by manipulating a glass of water until Chi-Chi interrupted him.Telepathy - Goku is able to read minds by placing his palm on the head of the intended target or broadcast his thoughts to others.Tornado - A move Goku came up with during his battle with Nam in the Semi-Finals of the World Martial Arts tournament. Goku spins around rapidly and moves around the ring hitting his opponent though the move will make him very dizzy.Twin Kamehameha - A variation of the Kamehameha where Goku charges twin energy spheres that he can launch one at a time. The first time Goku used this was to test if Frieza only used his eyes instead of sensing energy.TransformationsSuper Saiyan: Goku's first Super Saiyan transformation. Goku achieved this form on Planet Namek during his final battle against the galactic tyrant, Frieza. Frieza killed Goku's best friend, Krillin, causing Goku to fall into a fit a rage and gain the legendary degree of power Frieza has so greatly feared. While in this form, Goku's eyes are colored green, hair stands on end and becomes golden in color. He also possesses a golden flame-like aura.In this form, Goku's stats are increased 50x than his base form , allowing Goku to overpower and eventually defeat Frieza. However,his personality is affected while in this form as his good-hearted personality is now replaced with ruthlessness, anger, and rage. It is succeeded by many other Super Saiyan transformations.Super Saiyan 2: Goku's second Super Saiyain transformation. Much like the previous tansformation, Goku's hair stand and is colored gold. However the hair style in more rigid. His aura takes on more fierce flame-like appearance along with crackling blue energy sparks.Although it is unknown when Goku achieved this form, it was first seen his fight against the monster, Yakon. In this form, Goku's power is increased 2x times the power given by Super Saiyan, multiplying his energy 100 fold, allowing him to hold his own against Vegeta. While Goku is not as aggressive in this form as he is in Super Saiyan 1, his power drains more quickly. Super Saiyan 3: Goku's third Super Saiyan transformation. Goku gained this form when he went through vigorous in Other world. The appearance is much different from the other two. The rigid hair style becomes smooth and flowing, sometimes growing down passed the waist and Goku's eye brow are gone. His aura remains the same as Super Saiyan 2, expect with more blue energy sparks. This is the strongest form in the Dragon Ball Z manga and anime. In this form, Goku's Ki energy is increased four times the strength of Super Saiyan 2, multiplying his power 400x its normal power. This form was enough to stand against Majin Buu in his first and kid form. However much like Super Saiyan 2, his power drops rapidly, allowing to stay in the form only a few minutes.Super Saiyan God: Goku's fourth Super Saiyan transformation in the movie "Dragon Balll Z: Battle of Gods". This transformation was revealed by the Oracle Fish when he explain to The God of Destruction, Bills, that a Super Saiyan God would appear before him.Goku's overall appearance in this form of this form is unchanged. However, his hair and eyes are now a crimson color and he possesses an explosive flaming aura.The only way for Goku to achieve this form is to harness the power of six pure-hearted Saiyans. The power of this form in even enough to excite Bills. In this form, Goku is able to match the God of Destruction blow for blow, but powers down more quickly than his other transformations due its godly degree of power.Super Saiyan 4: Goku's fourth Super Saiyan in the anime "Dragon Ball GT" Goku gained access to this form during his battle with Baby Vegeta. In this form, Goku's appearance is a mixture of a humanoid Saiyan and the Great Ape transformation, with crimson color fur, tail, and shadow trim around the eyes.Goku's power is increased 10x beyond the limit of Super Saiyan 3, giving his power a drastic increase of 4000 times normals. Unlike the other three transformations, this form does not have a time limit and his body is able to handle to the 4000x increase without powering time and the form can be accessed at any given time. However, Goku becomes more violent and instinct prone while in this form, being unable to listen to reason and tends to have trouble on controlling his own power.Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan:In the Movie; "Fukkatsu No F" Goku achieved the form of Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan from training with Whis, the God of Destruction Beerus's teacher. This form allows Goku to have the Godly power of his Super Saiyan god form in his Super Saiyan form. Super Saiyan 5: Super Saiyan 5 is a non canon transformation that Goku achieves in the fan made Dragon Ball AF series. It is unknown exactly how powerful it is, but it is far greater than Super Saiyan 4.AnimationGoku appears as the protagonist in numerous anime adaptations of the original manga in both Japanese and English. Notable appearances are Dragonball, Dragon Ball Z, Dragon Ball GT, Doctor Slump, and Dragon Ball Z: Abridged. He is voiced by such actors as Masako Nozawa, Kirby Morrow, Sean Schemmel and Lawrence Simpson.FilmGoku appears as the protagonist in numerous live-action and animated film adaptations of the manga and anime. He has also appeared in a number of made-for-television and direct-to-video movies. He is portrayed by such actors as Masako Nozawa, Justin Chatwin and Lawrence Simpson.Video GamesGoku appears as a playable character in over eighty Dragon Ball-related video games.

Midwest Living Review
Chicago's iconic hometown department store Marshall Field's became Macy's several years ago, but the State Street location still holds rank as one of the world's most enthralling shopping experiences. Anchoring a revitalized State Street shopping district, the 1907 building designed by Chicago architect Daniel Burnham boasts renowned architectural features, including the signature green corner clocks and Tiffany glass mosaic domed ceiling, both highlighted in a self-guided audio tour (info available at the seventh-floor visitors center).
Inside, escalators zigzag through an open atrium linking eight floors of fashion, accessories, beauty products, home decor, linens and dining. Shoppers circle an archipelago of cosmetic and jewelry counters, designer handbags and the Beauty Bar nail salon within a soaring two-story gallery supported by Corinthian columns.
Macy's has preserved cherished vestiges of the legendary Marshall Field's, such as Frango Mints and holiday dining under the 45-foot-tall Great Tree in the Walnut Room restaurant, where the recently reintroduced Mrs. Hering's 1890 original chicken potpie ($11) and Frango Mint chocolate ice cream pie ($5) are popular lunch choices. The Walnut Room Wine Bar and a gourmet food court serve fare from Macy's Culinary Council celebrity chefs; the ground-floor food court near the Pedway offers to-go eats and more casual dining.
Vacation-shopping packages and special annual events, such as the spring Flower Show and fall's celebrity-studded Glamorama fashion week extravaganza, draw tourists from around the world.

Investigator Robert Reece of the Jones County Sheriff's Department said a search warrant was served on the residence on Ed Ethridge Road at 10 a.m. Monday pursuant to an ongoing investigation.
Reece said he believes the indoor grow is the largest that has been found in the county.
"It's at the least the most sophisticated," he stated.
Reece was accompanied in the serving of the search warrant by investigators Jimmy Black and Gerry Nelson. He said officers spent the entire day at the residence removing the illegal plants and related items.

Rated 5 out of 5�by HollyJ Adorable and super comfy I got these in blue (Gobi) and I absolutely love them! They are so comfortable. Even better than my other designer shorts. They are soft and have a a nice snug fit, but stretch perfectly to flatter. I am size 24/XXS and the size 24 fit just right.

Thursday, April 11, 2013
The Summerville Farmer's Market is back.
Saturday marks the first day of the market, which runs from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. each Saturday until Nov. 23.
Anyone who visited the Flowertown Festival last Saturday had a chance to see some of the vendors in a preview of the market.
Nick Kierpiec, assistant parks and recreation manager for the town, said the farmers and specialty food vendors had a great response at the festival.
"Anybody that was there had a pretty wonderful day," he said.
He said both Gruber Farms and Behr Family Farms sold a lot of produce and generated a lot of interest in their CSAs, or community-supported agriculture programs.
By joining a CSA, a customer pays a pre-determined amount and gets a weekly boxful of whatever's fresh from the fields.
There are about 65 vendors signed up for the town's market. Kierpiec said the town received 110 vendor applications last year; this year it received more than 200.
Spaces are limited because the market occurs in the parking lot between Town Hall and First Citizens Bank.
The market will remain there for the foreseeable future, Kierpiec said. The town did look at other spots, but vendors said they liked the family atmosphere created by the close-in space, he said.
In addition to farmers, artisans and specialty food vendors, there will also be two food trucks beginning at the end of the month.
The first food trucks will be Dulce, which sells baked goods, and Refueler's Mobile Café, which sells Filipino fusion.
The trucks will rotate each month, Kierpiec said.

(→Backup Cluebringer database)
Latest revision as of 02:06, 20 January 2014
[edit] Summary
Cluebringer (a.k.a. Policyd v2) is a multi-platform policy server for popular MTAs (e.g. Postfix). This policy daemon is designed mostly for large scale mail hosting environments. The main goal is to implement as many spam combating and email compliance features as possible while at the same time maintaining the portability, stability and performance required for mission critical email hosting of today. Most of the ideas and methods implemented in Policyd v2 stem from Policyd v1 as well as the authors' long time involvement in large scale mail hosting industry.
[edit] Requirements
This tutorial is applicable to Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6, CentOS 6.
[edit] Install Cluebringer
Please make sure you have iRedMail yum repository enabled on your server:
|File: /etc/yum.repos.d/iRedMail.repo
[iRedMail] name=iRedMail baseurl=http://www.iredmail.org/yum/rpms/6/ enabled=1 gpgcheck=0
You can now install Cluebringer with yum directly:
# yum install cluebringer
- Main config file of Cluebringer is /etc/policyd/cluebringer.conf.
- Init script is /etc/init.d/cbpolicyd.
[edit] Create system user/group for Cluebringer
We will run Cluebringer as a low-privileged user and group, so let's create the user "cluebringer" and group "cluebringer" first.
# groupadd cluebringer # useradd -m -d /home/cluebringer -s /sbin/nologin -g cluebringer cluebringer
[edit] Create SQL database for Cluebringer
- Cluebringer stores blacklist/whitelist/greylisting and other data in SQL database, so we have to create one for it.
- Cluebringer RPM package ships a SQL file for sample SQL tables, what we need to do is creating a database then importing this sample SQL file.
[edit] For iRedMail with OpenLDAP or MySQL backend
If you're running iRedMail with OpenLDAP or MySQL backend, you have to create a MySQL database to store Cluebringer data.
- Find the sample SQL file:
# rpm -ql cluebringer | grep 'policyd.mysql.sql' /usr/share/doc/cluebringer-2.0.14/database/policyd.mysql.sql
- Newest MySQL server doesn't recognize 'TYPE=MyISAM' or 'TYPE=InnoDB' while creating SQL table, so we'd better convert them to 'ENGINE=' before importing it.
# perl -pi -e 's#TYPE=#ENGINE=#g' /usr/share/doc/cluebringer-2.0.14/database/policyd.mysql.sql
- Now create a SQL database for Cluebringer and import SQL sample file. Important note: iRedAdmin-Pro detects Policyd/Cluebringer by dataabse name, so please do NOT use other database name.
# mysql -uroot -p mysql> CREATE DATABASE cluebringer; mysql> USE cluebringer; mysql> SOURCE /usr/share/doc/cluebringer-2.0.14/database/policyd.mysql.sql;
- Download addition SQL files required by iRedMail and iRedAdmin-Pro to /tmp/ directory, then import them. Important note: as you can see in this SQL file, we created addition indexes, new columns, and pre-defined some policies for whitelist/blacklist/greylisting, these are required by iRedMail and iRedAdmin-Pro.It's impossible to migrate Policyd database to Cluebringer without these pre-defined policies.
mysql> USE cluebringer; mysql> SOURCE /tmp/extra.sql; mysql> SOURCE /tmp/column_character_set.mysql;
- Create SQL user "cluebringer" (with password 'cb_password') for Cluebringer database and grant necessary privileges. Important note: Please 'cb_password' by a long, complex password.
mysql> GRANT SELECT,INSERT,UPDATE,DELETE ON cluebringer.* TO "cluebringer"@"localhost" IDENTIFIED BY 'cb_password'; mysql> FLUSH PRIVILEGES;
- Make sure you can connect to MySQL server with this new SQL username and password:
# mysql -u cluebringer -p
[edit] For iRedMail with PostgreSQL backend
If you're running iRedMail with PostgreSQL backend, you have to create a PostgreSQL database to store Cluebringer data.
- Find the sample SQL file:
# rpm -ql cluebringer | grep 'policyd.pgsql.sql' /usr/share/doc/cluebringer-2.0.14/database/policyd.pgsql.sql
- This sample file uses incorrect comment mark (#), we should fix it before importing:
# perl -pi -e 's=^(#.*)=/*${1}*/=' /usr/share/doc/cluebringer-2.0.14/database/policyd.pgsql.sql
- Now create a SQL database for Cluebringer and import SQL sample file. Important note: iRedAdmin-Pro detects Policyd/Cluebringer by dataabse name, so please do NOT use other database name.
# su - postgres $ psql sql> CREATE DATABASE cluebringer WITH TEMPLATE template0 ENCODING 'UTF8'; sql> \c cluebringer; sql> \i /usr/share/doc/cluebringer-2.0.14/database/policyd.pgsql.sql;
- Download addition SQL file required by iRedMail and iRedAdmin-Pro to /tmp/ directory, then import them. Important note: as you can see in this SQL file, we created addition indexes, new columns, and pre-defined some policies for whitelist/blacklist/greylisting, these are required by iRedMail and iRedAdmin-Pro. It's impossible to migrate Policyd database to Cluebringer without these pre-defined policies.
sql> \c cluebringer; sql> \i /tmp/extra.sql;
- Create SQL user "cluebringer" (with password 'cb_password') for Cluebringer database and grant necessary privileges. Important note: Please 'cb_password' by a long, complex password.
sql> CREATE USER cluebringer WITH ENCRYPTED PASSWORD 'cb_password' NOSUPERUSER NOCREATEDB NOCREATEROLE;
- Make sure you can connect to PostgreSQL server with this new SQL username and password:
$ psql -U cluebringer -W
[edit] Configure Cluebringer
Open Cluebringer config file /etc/policyd/cluebringer.conf, set proper values for below parameters:
- WARNING: This is just part of Cluebringer config file.
|File: /etc/policyd/cluebringer.conf
[server] # Protocols to load protocols=<<EOT Postfix EOT # Modules to load modules=<<EOT Core AccessControl CheckHelo CheckSPF Greylisting Quotas EOT # User to run this daemon as user = cluebringer group = cluebringer # Filename to store pid of parent process pid_file=/var/run/cbpolicyd.pid # Log level: # 0 - Errors only # 1 - Warnings and errors # 2 - Notices, warnings, errors # 3 - Info, notices, warnings, errors # 4 - Debugging log_level = 0 # File to log to instead of stdout log_file = /var/log/cbpolicyd.log # Log destination for mail logs... log_mail = mail@syslog:native # IP to listen on, * for all host = 127.0.0.1 # Port to run on port = 10031 [database] DSN = DBI:mysql:database=cluebringer;host=localhost;user=cluebringer;password=cb_password Username = cluebringer Password = cb_password # Access Control module. Used for whitelist/blacklist in iRedMail. [AccessControl] enable=1 # Greylisting module. Used for server-wide, per-domain, per-user greylisting control in iRedMail. [Greylisting] enable=1 # CheckHelo module [CheckHelo] enable=1 # CheckSPF module [CheckSPF] enable=1 # Quotas module. Used for per-domain and per-user throttling in iRedMail. [Quotas] enable=1
Now it's ready to start Cluebringer service.
If you have Policyd-1.8 running, you have to tell Postfix not to use Policyd as policy server first (so that your users can still send/receive emails), then disable it completely:
- To disable Policyd in Postfix, please open file /etc/postfix/main.cf, remove check_policy_service inet:127.0.0.1:10031, then restart Postfix service.
- To disable Policyd service completely:
# /etc/init.d/policyd stop # chkconfig --level 345 policyd off
Now let's start Cluebringer service and make it auto start during system start up:
# /etc/init.d/cbpolicyd restart # chkconfig --level 345 cbpolicyd on
Make sure it's running on port 10031:
# netstat -ntlp | grep 10031 tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:10031 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 1966/perl
[edit] Enable Cluebringer in Postfix
Now it's ready to enable Cluebringer in Postfix.
- Open Postfix config file /etc/postfix/main.cf, add check_policy_service inet:127.0.0.1:10031 in parameter smtpd_recipient_restrictions before existing restruction rule permit_mynetworks like below:
- Important note: Order of restriction rules is very important, so please do not add 'check_policy_service inet:127.0.0.1:10031' in wrong place.
|File: /etc/postfix/main.cf
smtpd_recipient_restrictions = ..., check_policy_service inet:127.0.0.1:10031, permit_mynetworks, permit_sasl_authenticated, ...
- Add check_policy_service inet:127.0.0.1:10031 in parameter smtpd_end_of_data_restrictions like below:
|File: /etc/postfix/main.cf
smtpd_end_of_data_restrictions = check_policy_service inet:127.0.0.1:10031
- Restart Postfix service to load your changed settings.
That's all.
[edit] Backup Cluebringer database
Please don't forget to backup Cluebringer database by adding database name "cluebringer" in backup script, variable name "DATABASES", it's /var/vmail/backup/backup_mysql.sh (or backup_pgsql.sh if you're running PostgreSQL backend) by default. For example:
|File: /var/vmail/backup/backup_mysql.sh
DATABASES="... cluebringer"
[edit] Enable Cluebringer support in iRedAdmin-Pro
If you have iRedAdmin-Pro, please update its config file /var/www/iredadmin/settings.py with correct SQL database name, username and password. For example:
|File: /var/www/iredadmin/settings.py
# Enable policyd integration: True, False. policyd_enabled = True policyd_db_host = '127.0.0.1' policyd_db_port = 3306 policyd_db_name = 'cluebringer' # <- Update this one policyd_db_user = 'cluebringer' # <- Update this one policyd_db_password = 'cb_password' # <- Update this one
Restart Apache service is required.

Los Angeles Clippers tickets
on the official NBATickets.com Resale Marketplace!
Originally existing as the Buffalo Braves, the team was based out of Buffalo, New York. Then in 1978, the franchise relocated to San Diego, where they played for six years before finding their Los Angeles home in 1984. The Clippers built a strong base thanks to players like Doc Rivers, Bill Walton, Bob McAdoo and Danny Manning. Team members like Blake Griffin and Eric Gordon helped elevate the team's state of play. As the Clippers game play rose, they earned themselves a serious hometown rival in the Los Angeles Lakers.
The 2012-13 Los Angeles Clippers won a franchise best 56 games and its first Pacific Division championship led by All-Stars Blake Griffin and Chris Paul. That season's team made the playoffs, making it the ninth attendance in the franchise's history and the third time in an eight season span. Nicknamed "Lob City," the high-energy, electric squad added the championship pedigree of coach Doc Rivers and was picked as one of the favorites to represent the Western Conference in the 2014 NBA Finals.
Heading into the 2013-14 season, the Clippers sold out 94 straight games, dating back to February 2, 2011. That season's talented core group of players ensured the continuation of the sellout streak throughout the regular season and into the playoffs. Seeing the Clippers hit the hardwood at Staples Center is a great time for the entire family. This could be the year that the team takes home the championship glory, and you can be there courtside when your purchase Los Angeles Clippers tickets today!

Program Information
Willamette University is among the institutions approved by the American Chemical Society for undergraduate education in Chemistry. The primary goals of the Chemistry program are to help students understand the place of chemistry in human affairs and to have students become sufficiently knowledgeable about chemistry in order to be effective problem-solvers after graduation.
For both majors and non-majors, the study of chemistry provides practice in logical thinking; an awareness of the environmental impact of chemistry; preparation to enter and succeed in graduate and professional programs including medical, dental, veterinary, and nursing schools; the chemistry background needed for careers in secondary school teaching and other professions and for employment in business or industry; an awareness of how chemistry relates to other areas of knowledge; and practice in applying scientific methodology to the solution of practical problems.
Specific expectations for Chemistry majors include a competent level of understanding of the four principal areas of Analytical, Inorganic, Organic, and Physical Chemistry. All majors will acquire a background in mathematics and physics; biochemistry track students will have, in addition, experience in biology and Biochemistry. Students will also gain experience in conducting individual laboratory research projects and may study Quantum Chemistry or other advanced topics. The chemistry major provides a level of training in chemistry meeting recognized national standards.
Numerous post-graduate and professional opportunities exist for individuals who major in chemistry. Possibilities include research and development or management careers in industry, government or business; teaching at the secondary school, college, or university level; medically-oriented professions such as medicine, dentistry, veterinary medicine, nursing, clinical chemistry, pharmacology, public health, and forensic chemistry. Even more applications of chemistry occur in such fields as oceanography, space exploration, environment quality, industrial toxicology, and patent law. In many such cases advanced study beyond the baccalaureate degree is advisable or required.
The Chemistry Department is housed in the Olin Science Center. Modern laboratories for courses and for individual research projects are provided with up-to-date instruments and equipment. Care has been given to laboratory safety, particularly in the organic chemistry laboratory, where fume hoods for each student have been installed. A wide selection of chemistry periodicals and monographs is available to students in the University Library. Students have access to SciFinder Scholar, a chemical literature research tool, through the University Library as well.
Requirements for the Chemistry Major
The usual first course in the chemistry program is Introductory Chemistry I, although well-qualified students may begin at a higher level. Well-qualified students should consult with the department before registration.

QAD Questions and Answers - Country Of Origin Labeling
Q1: What is Country of Origin Labeling (COOL)?
A: On January 27, 2004, President Bush signed Public Law 108-199 which delays the implementation of mandatory COOL for all covered commodities except wild and farm-raised fish and shellfish until September 30, 2006. On November 10, 2005, President Bush signed Public Law 109-97, which delays the implementation for all covered commodities except wild and farm-raised and shellfish until September 30, 2008. As described in the legislation, program implementation is the responsibility of USDA's Agricultural Marketing Service.
More information can be obtained from:
Q2: How can animals produced under a USDA PVP or QSA Program with a source verified claim be identified?
A: Animals produced under a USDA PVP or QSA Program with a source verified claim may be identified as "Born and Raised in the U.S." Animals produced under a USDA PVP or QSA Program with a claim other than source verified may be identified as appropriate to the claim.
Q3: Does each location were animals move to or from need to be included in a USDA PVP or QSA Program?
A: No. The animals must be traceable to the farm/ranch of origin and records must support their movements and be available at each location.

According to reports emanating in Singapore today, Shinya Aoki could be set to make his featherweight debut as early as October 18, 2013 with Evolve MMA pushing for him to get a spot on the card at ONE FC: "Total Domination," which is headlined by the bantamweight unification bout between Bibiano Fernandes vs. Soo Chul Kim.
The co-main event at the Singapore Indoor Stadium is already set and will see Peter Davis take on Eddie Ng in a lightweight match-up, but Evolve MMA CEO Chatri Sityodtong confirmed to Fox Sports Asia he is also hoping Aoki will be offered a featherweight fight on the card.
"Shinya wants to drop to featherweight and I want to see that too, because I think he is going to be amazing there, look how big he already is and the size advantage he will have. We are still pushing Victor (Cui) to put Shinya on the card for October 18. You can never know what can happen."
If Aoki were to drop down to 145 pounds it would clear the way for his teammate Ng to fight for the title at lightweight and would also open up the possibility of a "super fight" against Fernandes who is the former DREAM featherweight champion and won the DREAM featherweight Grand Prix back in 2009.

CHEERS to iMore for putting this on and Cheers to the upcoming winners!
All I want for Christmas is an iPad Mini, an iPad Mini, an iPad Mini.
Oh what a joy it would be to wake up Christmas morning, in my Iron Man (or Bat Man) Onesie. (Yes they make them large enough to fit a 240 pound man). I'd Run down the stairs slipping and sliding from the lack of traction, dive to the floor with elation and joy. I'd reach for the that shiny new device, all wrapped with care. And hand to my mother, because I love to share.
Oh iMore Santa, Pick Me, Pick Me, Pick Me!

I would love an iPhone 5, or even an iPhone 4S. Only because my current phone is a Palm Pre2 hacked to run on Sprint, so I'm a little outdated :)

I have an iPad mini but I'd love to have one with LTE. The thing is perfect for me and it just feels like it should have the LTE built in. Now that they're available, I'd love one!

i would like an Iphone 5 because ive never owned a apple product and it would be great to have one especially due to the fact i have no phone currently , that means i could spend some of my saved money on the less fortunate instead of on a phone for myself.. But I wouldnt mind any of them , Im Grateful for any consideration :)
An iPad Mini would be sweet!!!
I would love to get the new iPad! Never owned an iPad before and want get the iPad experience!!!
iphone 5 - Because my 4 is dying and it makes me sad...
I'm stuck with my iPhone 4 until July with Rogers which doesn't work at my house! Want an unlocked 5 so I can switch contract free to the carrier that works the best!
I'd either want an iPhone 5 for my wife or an iPad Mini to share between us
Thank you!
Would love an iphone 5 or an ipad mini for my kids. Thanks!
I would put it towards two 16GB white Verizon iPhone 5's (for my wife and I). Our contract is up in 10 days and while the 4 is still a good phone, we would LOVE to upgrade this Christmas! :)
I would love to be a proud owner of the new iPad mini, my wife and I are parents to 2 beautiful twin daughters. They have used my iPhone before but to have something bigger and capability to run iPad apps with a bigger screen and portability is ideal for our family. Best of luck to everyone else and can't wait for the announcement.
Hey guys, praises to the iniciative!
I would love to have an iPhone 5! I'm a student and have been working for the last two years doing some part time jobs and so on, but money always seems to come short in times of need and I haven't yet brought myself to spend 600 plus euros on one, though I'd really love it. I'm going on Erasmus next year, so an iPhone would be a great Christmas present for me to get to now the city and the surroundings. Also, I'm a hugeeeeee Apple fan and have been planning on buying one for 2 years now (though I never did)!
Cheers to you all, good luck!

I would love to win an iPad 4. My little one took over my iPad 2 and I haven't been able to use it since. An iPhone 5 would also be a nice gift for my husband since I took his upgrade for my 5.
I would love to win an ipad. Doesn't matter which color or size. I recently lost my job and had to sell my iphone macbook pro and ipad to make ends meet. I'd love to have an ipad again for its portability, gaming, and web browsing abilities. Would make it an awesome christmas.
I would love an iPad 4, my main computer is approaching 7 years old and this would allow me to stave off its execution even longer! I am new to the iPhone as of september with my iphone5, now I'm looking to flesh out my iDevices catalogue!
I would like to win the iPad -- because I don't have one.
I love apple. I would be so greatfull if I win this giveaway! I love the new iPad mini!! Please choose me!! I'am a student and I love using technology every day please help me to use it even more!!

Managed Monitoring Service
Take advantage of GoGrid's 24/7 Technical Support team to configure server-level monitoring of your infrastructure.
- Expert monitoring and response
- Alerts are automatically investigated by GoGrid
- Includes RAID monitoring, Ping monitoring, Port scanning, HTTP Get checks, and more
GoGrid's Managed Monitoring Service lets you leverage GoGrid's 24/7 Technical Support team to configure server-level monitoring and take action on all generated alerts. Cloud and Dedicated Servers can be monitored with ping, TCP port scanning, and HTTP GET from three global locations. All alerts are immediately treated as emergency cases and investigated by the Technical Support team.
|Port Scanning
(up to 5)
|RAID Monitoring
(per IP)
|Server Public IP
Use Cases
GoGrid's Managed Monitoring Service is ideal for these use cases:
- Enable multi-cloud health monitoring
Customers that want to extend GoGrid's Managed Monitoring Service to multiple clouds, data centers, or even to their on-prem environment can easily do so. Employing a multi-cloud strategy simplifies operations and ensures you can manage workloads running in multiple locations or transition from one location to another. Our Managed Monitoring Service is designed to monitor servers across multiple service providers like AWS, Rackspace, and even your on-premise environment in addition to GoGrid.
- Free up resources from manual monitoring
Organizations that lack the expertise or staff/financial resources to monitor, investigate, and resolve infrastructure alerts and issues can leverage our expertise in infrastructure management.
- Determine the uptime of your infrastructure
Instead of wondering what's happening with your infrastructure or being surprised when a server goes down, rely on our Managed Monitoring Service to record and report on system uptime and only alert you to issues that require remediation.
- Managed deployment & setup
New and existing customers with a GoGrid account should contact their account representative to order the service. GoGrid will need to gather information on the infrastructure you want to place under management. A GoGrid deployment expert will then configure the monitoring parameters as requested.
- Immediate response action triggers
If an alert is triggered, GoGrid takes action if necessary will begin troubleshooting to quickly find a resolution to the issue. Cases are opened on your behalf so you have clear insight into issues and tracking of actions.
- Supports standard monitoring options
Many providers limit their managed monitoring service to a simple "Ping Test" to check the health of the environment. GoGrid goes a step further, offering more of the options you need. Monitoring options include Ping, TCP Port Scanning, and HTTP Get.
- Supports Cloud Servers & Dedicated Servers
Our monitoring service can be configured to support GoGrid Cloud Servers and GoGrid Dedicated Servers in addition to servers that have been collocated with us.
