Western Animation: Schools Out The Musical
School's Out! The Musical is a Made-for-TV Movie from the series The Fairly OddParents. It aired in 2005.The movie starts a few years before the series, HP and his assistant Sanderson coming off a defeat from the Fairies when they come across a baby clown who's parents had thrown him off a train in an effort to save him (the train was approching a gap in the track but it switched to a stable one at the last minute). Thus HP starts scheming of a plan to use the baby for later.In present time, summer has started and school's out to the dread of the adults of Dimmsdale as the kids start running amuck. Helped along but the Pixies to make their actions more destructive. In comes a man named Flappy Bob who offers to take care of the kids in his "Fun Camp" which is an over-sterilized, over protective and an educational-laden dull place. When the kids are forced to go there, Timmy comes to the conclusion that "adults ruin everything" and wishes kids were in charge of the world.Seems like a good enough wish, right? Of course if you know this show, it naturally leads into unforeseen consequences engineered by HP himself and Timmy has to find a way to set it right.
School's Out! The Musical provides examples of:
- Abusive Parents: The Pixies towards Flappy Bob, having used and manipulated Flappy Bob for almost his whole life after they found him. Averted by Flappy Bob's real parents who are absolute sweethearts and spent years searching for their son after they lost him (they did get sidetracked with visiting Las Vegas, though).
- Big Bad: HP, and the Pixies in general.
- Big "NO!": Timmy's reaction to the Flappy Bob/Pixie controlled world, an incredibly dull place where everyone dresses in casual office attire, and the kids are stuck in Flappy Bobs edutainment summer camp their whole vacation.
- Getting Crap Past the Radar: HP's song convincing the adults to drop their kids off at Flappy Bob's Learn-a-Torium had a scene of Timmy's dad in jail with a fellow inmate looking at him with bedroom eyes. It doesn't help that the line accompanying it was, "You can learn to love your cellmate..."
- Gross-Up Close-Up: For Chester's bare feet.
- Hidden Depths: This is the first time the Pixies show their hip-hop rapping skills.
- Hoist by His Own Petard: The Pixie's sending Flappy Bob to law school results him in finding the loophole needed to beat their contract. See Exact Words below.
- Exact Words: HP's iron clad contract with Flappy Bob states that the world will be shaped according to Flappy Bobs wishes. Too bad Timmy helped Flappy return to his fun-loving roots.
- Lighter and Softer: While it still has its darker moments, it's certainly much more light-hearted than the previous two films.
- Manipulative Bastard: The Pixies, having raised Flappy Bob from birth and subtly manipulated him his entire life into a boring, plain business man, in a 37 year plan to take over the Fairy World and Earth.
- Made-for-TV Movie: One of several for The Fairly OddParents.
- Monster Clown: While not necessarily monstrous or evil, Flappy Bob is not what you call a humorous clown and, until his Heel-Face Turn, he definitely is not interested in being funny.
- Musical Episode: Obviously
- Non-Ironic Clown: Flappy Bob's parents are implied to be this. Flappy Bob becomes this after he embraces his clown heritage.
- Naked People Are Funny: Chester, once again.
- Plot Hole: In one episode, Timmy was shown to be afraid of clowns. They're one of his greatest fears. However, in this movie, not only does Timmy seem unafraid of clowns, but he encourages Flappy Bob to embrace his clown heritage.
- Shout-Out: Flappy Bob's origin.
- Take That: Flappy Bobs father mentions that one of the place's they searched for him was in Congress and that "it was full of clowns, but none of them were fun."
- The joke about how Florida is still voting, even though Timmy Turner was named President of Kid World (a reference to the voting fiasco during the 2000 U.S. President election, which is how George W. Bush came into power).
- Teenage Wasteland: While they're technically not teenagers, this complies with the definition of the trope since Timmy wishes that the kids were in charge. He becomes president and delegates authority to the various kids.
- However, this is a subversion due to the world being better when the kids are in charge. World peace even happens in a day!
- Unwitting Pawn: Both Timmy and Flappy Bob for the Pixies.

Toronto Maple Leaf News and Rumors
Would you trade Luongo and Ballard for Kessel
With all of the trade talk out there with Kessel and Luongo it would be interesting to see fans reaction to a possible trade that could benefit both teams. Would you be willing to do this deal? What else would have to be done to sweeten the pot?
Please comment and have your say.
[yop_poll id="9″]
Toronto Media Starting to call on the Leafs to move Kessel
There's only one untouchable on the Maple Leafs.
The man with no name.
Not Clint Eastwood, or his empty chair.
The 2013 first-round draft choice.
It is to be protected, retained and cherished, although other teams covet it and have already started suggesting it should be included in proposed trades.
No. 1 centre is Leafs priority one – Forget about a goalie, Leafs need to find someone to feed Kessel the puck — and quick
The bottom line is this: Without a front-line centre, Kessel's talents are being wasted. He was a 37-goal scorer last year but with a bonafide first-line centre, he might be a 50-goal scorer. Further to that, the Leafs will not take the next step in becoming a threat to go deep into the playoffs until they address the first-line centre situation.
Centre should be priority No.1 for the Leafs.
Nonis didn't want Carlyle as coach
When the club was looking for a coach to replace Ron Wilson in the grim days when last season transformed itself into a lost season, NHL sources say Nonis went to bat for Dallas Eakins, then and now the coach of the AHL Marlies. Nonis and other front-office executives were of the belief that Eakins is everything a modern-era coach should be; progressive but hard-nosed, communicative with players but never friends with them. Burke, of course, insisted on his old friend Randy Carlyle.
Why don't the Maple Leafs make an offer to P.K. Subban?
The question was clearly asked to a member of the Maple Leafs front office and the answer was just as direct.
Why not make a restricted free agent offer on unsigned defenceman P.K. Subban? Why not take a run at the best player not playing for the Montreal Canadiens?
[yop_poll id="6″]
RUMOURS DU JOUR – By Bruce Garrioch ,Ottawa Sun
After Montreal GM Marc Bergevin sat down with agent Don Meehan for a meeting Friday, the future of Habs blueliner P.K. Subban is all the rage. The two sides have gotten nowhere and many wouldn't be surprised if this ended in a trade demand from the Subban camp in the near future. As reported last week, Subban wants a five-year, $27.5-million deal at $5.5 million per season. Sources say Bergevin used Florida D Dmitry Kulikov (two years, $5 million) and New York D Michael Del Zotto (two years, $5.1 million) as comparisons. That won't wash with Subban. If the Habs decide to deal Subban, Detroit, Philadelphia and the Rangers will make a push. But sources insist there is a surprise candidate that could have the assets to acquire Subban — the Winnipeg Jets. League sources say GM Kevin Cheveldayoff wants to make a splash to get an impact player. The problem for Bergevin is simple: As mad as the Habs' camp is at Subban, he's a thoroughbred and they don't come along often … Lots of teams are waiting to see where the dominos fall with Vancouver G Roberto Luongo before making a move for a netminder. Canucks GM Mike Gillis has told several teams he's not doing anything until he gets his asking price. Yes, the Edmonton Oilers have what it takes to acquire Luongo, but he wouldn't approve a trade there. The Panthers don't want to make a deal unless Gillis is willing to take cash back. The Canucks know the pressure is mounting in some markets to win and they'll find a desperate GM trying to save his job, maybe even Washington or Philly.
Who will win the Leafs/Rangers game tonight?

Roberto Luongo to Maple Leafs talk sure to heat up
The conversation begins again. It has to. It has to because with any kind of goaltending the Maple Leafs don't lose to the New York Islanders Thursday night.
The conversation begins again, because there were boos instead of Lous at the Air Canada Centre. And the more there are boos, ask Ron Wilson about that, the more calls there will be calls for Roberto Luongo in the Maple Leafs net, because over two nights, one a win, one a loss for Toronto, the number of weak goals given up is five.
Maple Leafs call up Matt Frattin with Joffrey Lupul sidelined for at least six weeks
Matt Frattin is getting a second chance to show he belongs with the Maple Leafs.
The 25-year-old winger will play Thursday night at the Air Canada Centre against the visiting New York Islanders after being called up from the Marlies to replace injured Joffrey Lupul.
Lupul is expected to be sidelined for at least six weeks after fracturing a forearm in Wednesday's 5-2 win over the Pittsburgh Penguins.
Maple Leafs' Joffrey Lupul out indefinitely with fractured forearm
Those in the vicinity of the Leafs dressing room during the second period of Wednesday's 5-2 win over the Penguins got a hint at how bad the news was just by hearing Joffrey Lupul's reaction.
The Leafs forward and alternate captain had taken a Dion Phaneuf blast from the point off the arm midway through the period and preliminary X-rays revealed a fractured forearm. It's not an injury one recovers from quickly and Lupul let it be known rather audibly how he feels.
No truth' to rumours of Gretzky becoming Maple Leafs president
Wayne Gretzky was linked to the vacant presidency of the Toronto Maple Leafs on Tuesday, which created a social-media firestorm before the rumour was shot down by MLSE president Tom Anselmi.
Bob McKenzie of TSN reported the Hockey Hall of Famer may have been discussed internally at the Leafs parent company, Maple Leaf Sports and Entertainment Ltd., as a candidate for president in August. He speculated there might even have been inquiries made of Gretzky through third parties, but no direct contact.
NHL Rumors – January 23, 2013
The leatest trade rumors from January 23, 2013 include Roberto Luongo, Ben Bishop and the belief that it may just be the Stars, Avalanche or the Habs who are kicking the tires on Luongo.

Would an external hard drive work for you? Or are you thinking iCloud?

I would like it ready to access on the fly. I have not been sucessful storing the entire large iphoto folder on icloud and accessing it when I open the app. The external hard drive requires a hook-up or wireless connection but I would have to be in proximity., and backups on another drive for security.
I would love to use icloud, if it could be configured to hold the entire library as it is backed up by Apple's data centers. I'd like to click on the application and see and have full access to all my photos.
So far, I haven't been able to do that in an affordable way. The library is over 60g. which would be over $100year on icloud just to store photos! Yikes!

WASHINGTON - The scandal that has exploded in the government's veterans hospitals runs a lot deeper than the issue of long waits for those seeking medical care.
And it's been going on for a great deal longer, too, as a mountain of Government Accountability Office audits can attest over many decades: Countless reports of medical mistreatment; dangerously lengthy delays for ill veterans seeking care; shocking mortality rates when compared to private sector hospitals for similar surgeries; old, rundown facilities; and aged, broken medical equipment.
These and other problems in the VA's vast bureaucracy have been exposed in a sea of reports now gathering dust in congressional oversight committees that have failed to effectively address their findings.
Lawmakers at Senate hearings last week were beating their breasts over reports of veterans facing long treatment delays that have resulted in numerous deaths. We still do not know how many because of recent stories that the real numbers have been covered up.
Still, the fact remains that Congress has not done its job to see that VA programs, staffing, facilities and equipment are adequately funded and reforms enacted across the entire VA landscape. It's been asleep at the switch.
Nor has the Obama administration done anywhere near the due diligence needed to see that VA has the resources to adequately care for the thousands of soldiers returning home from the Iraq and Afghanistan wars.
But the tragedy of this latest VA scandal is that we keep making the same mistakes over and over again, and never learn from them.
Let's go back seven years ago when Washington Post reporters -- after exposing shockingly shabby, unhealthy conditions at Walter Reed Hospital -- found many of the same problems existed throughout the VA's organization.
On March 5, 2007, reporters Anne Hull and Dana Priest told the story of 70-year-old Ray Oliva whose "own VA hospital....was a mess.
The [hospital] gown he wore was torn. The wheelchairs were old and broken."
"It is not just Walter Reed," he told them. "The VA hospitals are not good either except for the staff who work so hard."
The veterans in his VA facility, he said, "had to ask for beds that had good mattresses instead of broken and old."
"I sat with guys who'd served in 'Nam," Oliva said. "We had terrible problems with the VA. But we were all so powerless to do anything about them."
"Across the country, some military quarters for wounded outpatients are in bad shape, according to interviews, GAO reports and transcripts of congressional testimony," Hull and Priest reported at the time.
Donald Lambro is chief political correspondent for The Washington Times.

15 But you, Lord, are a merciful and gracious God, slow to anger, most loving and true.
17 Give me a sign of your favor; make my enemies see, to their confusion, that you , Lord, help and comfort me.
It's impossible to even attempt to live a virtuous life without the grace of Our God. I just commented how the example of patience and being slow to anger is a virtue that I so badly yearn for at this point in my life. My middle daughter (K), during her meal time prayer last evening, prayed for "mama to stop yelling so much." Sigh. I'm completely aware of how loud and obnoxious I sound at home and I think we all get under each other's skin. We are definitely ready for the structure (as much as possible!) of the homeschool year and starting the school-year extra-curriculur activities back up.
Still, that all feels like an excuse. Rather than praying to God to help me continue my work through the summer, I tried to rely on my measly strength. So, it's not that I need a sign or symbol to strike me, I just need to increase and provide a batter example of daily prayer to my family. And to keep up my work, knowing that if I am doing God's will for me, I will be given the graces needed to march on.

Host Integration Server is definitely a small volume server based application when compared to large volume products like Exchange Server and SQL Server, but it does provide mission critical functionality to customers around the world. However, it has had a long lifecycle. A number of customers that use HIS may not realize how long the product has been available especially since the product name was changed with the release of HIS 2000 in August 2000.
In fact, I worked with some customers long ago where SNA Server was the first Windows Server-based application used in their production environments.
In order to highlight the longevity of the HIS product line, I thought the following history of releases would be interesting to some of you.
Note: The following only covers the Windows-based versions that we have released. There are a few OS/2 based versions that were available prior to this.
Some customers thought that HIS 2000 was a V1 release, when it fact it was version 5 of the SNA Server product with a new name.
Just to date myself a bit, SNA Server 2.1 was the current release when I started supporting the product.
As you can see there is a long history of Microsoft providing IBM mainframe and iSeries (AS/400) integration.

So one or two scientists makes a mistake and all of a sudden tens of thousands of them around the world are conspirators?
Nice logic and reason.
But then again, ignorance breeds irrational thought.
The fact that the Havana International Book Fair is dedicated to Russia makes my hair stand on end. I fear they'll again try to establish the same aristocracy here that existed back then in the former Soviet Union, but one with a Russian essence. I'm afraid they're the ones who will attempt to impose their aesthetics and prices, in both the State market and the black market.
Nonetheless, I have pleasant childhood memories of their picture books, complete with cutouts and comics. Though perhaps these were too serious for the tropics, they were what so many of us here grew up with. I also remember my mom buying some enormous head bands from a Russian for arranging my hair in even larger buns, and those "careful don't fall" shoes that killed my feet.
I venture to say this even with nostalgia. Despite my mother's efforts to make me look like a mindful child, the only thing she contributed with those details was to exacerbate my urge to irritate those who had more power than me.

Paris looks to continue Texas trend
Dallas Jackson is the National Columnist for Rivals.com. Email him your comments or story ideas to email@example.com and follow him on Twitter.
It was short and sweet, "LSU fans turn it up."
The five-word phrase was the body of the Tweet that Mansfield (Texas) Timberview safety Edward Paris used to announce his commitment to the SEC program Monday night.
Paris became the sixth verbal pledge to the Tigers in the Class of 2014 and the second major player to cross over to Louisiana from Texas -- joining Chris Hardeman of Houston (Texas) Alief Taylor.
Paris is the No. 38 player in the Rivals100. Hardeman is ranked No. 199 in the Rivals250.
Paris followed his commitment tweet with one explaining his decision, "It has been a long and hard decision to make as the schools I visited showed my much love and support as it related to me growing personally."
Hardeman was the first commit to the class. He has taken to shepherding others to join him.
"I want to recruit the best players I can for my class to play with me," Hardeman told Rivals.com. "I want to play with the best and I know guys want to play with other good players. I feel like I'm doing that right now. Hopefully by the time (next) February rolls around next year we'll have the No. 1 class in the country."
The No. 1 class is a goal that could be attained in Baton Rouge.
Following the commitment of Paris, LSU now has five players in the class rated as four-star prospects by Rivals.com. The class has the potential to land multiple five-star players as the top running back in the country and the top offensive tackle in the country - Leonard Fournette and Cameron Robinson, respectively - are considered LSU leans.
While it is well documented that top-ranked Louisiana players seldom leave the state, Rivals.com looks back at some of the successful players LSU has pulled out of Texas and what happened while they were on campus. P>
Michael Brockers, No. 201 in class of 2009
Ron Brooks, No. 21 player from Texas in Class of 2007
Matt Flynn, No. 40 player in Texas in Class of 2003
Herman Johnson, No. 30 in class of 2004
Jarrett Lee, No. 25 in Texas in Class of 2007
Brandon LaFell, No. 32 in Texas in Class of 2005

Keyboard shortcut to terminate editing a Message box?
Viewing 3 posts - 1 through 3 (of 3 total)
Forums MaxMSP
Hi all-
Couldn't find anything on this:
I know I can type "m" as a shortcut to create a message box in a patcher. But unlike "n" for a new object, typing "return" doesn't terminate message box editing.
Right now, I click on the patcher canvas with my mouse, but is there a keyboard-centric way to end message box editing, and move on to another editing task?
Thanks, Charles
Hold shift and press return?
Or more easily, just tab?
: )
Excellent, thanks!

My cunning plan for crashing Ed Miliband's Christmas party
Christmas is coming. For most people this is a time of joy and celebration. Chestnuts roasting on an open fire. But for a few others the distant clatter of a reindeer's hooves ushers in the season of pain and loneliness. Friends, I am one of those people.
Every year I am subjected to the same, cruel ritual: "Hi mate, just wondering if you're going to be at Ed Miliband's Christmas party". "What?" "Ed's Christmas press bash. Thought we could meet up and go on somewhere afterwards." "Er, no, sorry. I've … um … got something on".
"They haven't invited you again, have they?" Even longer pause. "No. No, they haven't". "Jesus, even Harry Cole's going this year!"
Not me. Every December I turn into the Daily Telegraph's Eleanor Rigby. Or maybe I'm Father McKenzie.
Either way, I go home, make a cup of cocoa, place the cat on my knee, and turn to Twitter. And there it is. "Ed's just told me the funniest story about Tristrum Hunt!" "Just spilt my drink over Maurice Glasman! Great guy!" "OMG, I think Harriet Harman's actually going to punch Toby Young!!!"
And I'm forced to just sit there, like some tiny urchin with his nose pressed to the window of a Victorian sweet shop. Just waiting for the burly policeman to come along and bark "Oi, sonny, on your way! And don't let PC Baldwin catch you hanging around here again!"
Well, not this year. I've had enough of the whispers and spiteful jibes: "See him. He's the one. Never been to Ed Miliband's Christmas party. Not once". Oh no. You mark my words. This year Cinderella will go to the ball.
The question is, how does she get there? I toyed with the idea of falling back on a tried and tested ploy from my teens. Just walking up to Ed's office bold as brass, wearing a Pierre Cardin jumper, and clutching a bottle of Malibu, and announce confidently "Hi, I'm with John".
But then I thought about it a bit, and I don't know of many John's in Ed's inner circle. The odd Torsten. A Bob or two. But no Johns.
Then I had another thought. Why not just walk up and announce "Hi, I'm with Len McCluskey". But then what if Len's actually in the party himself? I'd probably find myself picked up and unceremoniously dumped in the Thames by a couple of members of the Unite Leverage team.
Then there's the ruse we all used to employ when we were parliamentary researchers. At party conferences our bosses would get invited to all these glamorous receptions, but we'd always be barred. So we'd find a nearby set of stairs, run up and down a few times to make ourselves a bit sweaty and out of breath, then arm ourselves with a large sheaf of papers. We'd then go rushing up to the people on the door, waving our papers manically in one hand, and our mobile phone in the other, and frantically shout, "Have you seen [name of MP]! Quickly! Are they in there?!" If they answered in the affirmative, we'd then just barge straight in. And nine times out of ten it would work.
The only problem is I don't think I'd pass for a parliamentary researcher these days. I suppose I could try to pretend to collar a member of the Telegraph's lobby team – "Quick! Is Chris Hope in there? Eric Pickles has just announced he's doing something terrible to the Green Belt!" But it would be a bit of stretch.
Then there's the other trick we'd use to pull, which was think of someone really obscure, who would nonetheless be on the guest list of the party we wanted to crash. Then we'd reverse our pass, stroll up bold as brass, and say: "Hi, I'm [name of obscure MP] thanks for inviting me." You had to get in early, before the real MP showed up. But lots of times they wouldn't show anyway. And if they did, by then you'd usually be able to melt away into the crowd. Not that the plan wasn't without its risks. I think I once agreed to facilitate a dodgy export licence for someone who genuinely believed I was a junior minister at the DTI.
My problem this year was identifying someone so obscure, and with such a low profile, that when I presented myself as them, no one would know the difference. Which basically meant I'd have to pretend to be Hilary Benn. But then I had this nightmare of Owen Jones coming over to ask after Hilary's father, and my cover being blown.
Then I had a brainwave. "The reason you never get invited to Ed's parties is because you write nasty things about him", I said to myself, perceptively. So the solution's simple. Write something nice. I wouldn't necessarily have to mean it. I could write some glowing tribute this week, then go back to eviscerating him the next. A bit like Polly Toynbee did with Gordon Brown.
So I sat down and started to type. "It's time for people, myself included, to hold up our hands and say 'I was wrong about Ed Miliband." But then I looked down at the screen. The words "Sorry. But Ed Miliband still doesn't get it" were staring back at me.
I hastily hit delete, and started again. "This year Ed Miliband has finally shown he has what it takes to be Prime Minister". And it happened again. "This was the year Ed Miliband's chances of becoming Prime Minister crumbled to dust".
I turned autocorrect on and off, fiddled with spellcheck, and tried a third time. "Like it nor not, Ed Miliband appears to be moving closer towards his date with political destiny". I closed my eyes and opened them. And there it was: "Ed Miliband? Are you having a laugh?"
I can't say I'm with John. Or on an urgent errand for Chris Hope. Or pretend I'm Hilary Benn. And I certainly can't write something nice about Ed Miliband.
So if I'm not going to spend another Christmas darning socks and penning sermons, there's only one thing for it. Gel in the hair. Tie askew. Here we go … three … two … one …" Hi Ed, I'm Harry Cole. Thanks for inviting me."

Boillot speculates that flint is the efficacious geological element that renders his estate's 2007 Puligny-Montrachet Les Perrieres so distinctive. Peach and quince make for an effusively ripe, suggestively sweet aroma complimented by peony perfume. Given such a dramatic opening, one might expect a massive onslaught of sheer ripeness on the palate, but while silken-textured and generously expansive, this displays a buoyancy and almost levitating, ethereal lightness of touch, as well as a vibratory interaction of citrus, ripe pit fruit, and liquid floral perfume on the finish. The mineral side of matters vinous - notwithstanding the site's name - is very much sublimated. This epitome of vintage polish, elegance, energy, and luscious refreshment should be worth following for at least half a dozen years. There are 9 barrels of it, and its vines - representing a selection massale from the estate's Clos de la Mouchere - are, amazingly, only in their third year of production.
A more elegant and more complex nose of pure and layered aromas of fresh lemon, spice, acacia blossom along with a hint of brioche marries into rich, intense, detailed and beautifully textured flavors brimming with obvious minerality before culminating into a sneaky long finish that is almost delicate. This is an understated and beautifully harmonious effort.
Nose dominated by smoky oak. Fat, broad and rich, with a dominant peach flavor. The wine's volume and fat give it a distinctly glyceral, sweet impression but Boillot assures me that this is one of the driest domain wines in 2007, along with the Clos de la Mouchere. Finishes fat, long and classically dry.

The two Ms by ShadesofNightWatch
©2014-2016 ShadesofNight
I tried tracing them onto watercolour paper and then inking them with a quill and indian ink. Then I did a colour ink wash over that with a brush. It turned out... Hmm, I think I prefer how the Sari one turned out actually. As often happens, the ink lost the look that I liked about the sketch, especially in the Mirialan's face. Her skin should also be darker but I wasn't sure about drowning the paper in ink.

This article explains what the F-Secure firewall profiles, rules and services are.
The F-Secure firewall protects your computer by allowing safe Internet traffic and blocking unsafe traffic. Your computer is protected with the predefined firewall settings. Usually, you do not have to change them. You may, however, have to change them if you use a very strict firewall profile or if you have added your own firewall rules or services.
The firewall profile defines the level of protection on your computer. Each firewall profile has a predefined set of firewall rules, which define the type of traffic that is allowed to or denied from your computer. To some profiles you can also add rules that you have created yourself.
Firewall profiles also define
There are several predefined firewall profiles, which range from very strict to very loose:
Note: Depending on the product you are using, the names of firewall profiles can be different.
Your computer is safe with the predefined firewall profile. You may need to change the profile to a stricter one, for example, if you use your laptop outside your home and open the Internet using a WLAN connection.
You can define your own firewall profiles and add your own set of rules for it. However, we recommend that only experienced users define their own firewall profiles.
A firewall profile consists of several firewall rules. A firewall rule consists of several firewall services. Services are defined by the protocols and ports they use.
For example, the Mobile firewall profile has a rule called Web browsing. This rule allows you to browse the web. The rule includes the services that are needed for web browsing, such as the HyperText Transfer Protocol (HTTP) service. This service uses the TCP and port number 80.
Firewall rules define what kind of Internet traffic is allowed or blocked. Each firewall profile has a predefined set of firewall rules, which you cannot change. You can only add new rules to some of the profiles. For some profiles you may not be able to add your own rules. There may also be a profile that has no predefined rules and that allows you to freely add your own set of rules. The selected profile also affects the priority which your own rules receive in relation to the predefined rules.
A firewall rule can be applied to traffic from the Internet to your computer (inbound), or from your computer to the Internet (outbound). A rule can also be applied to both directions at the same time.
A firewall rule consists of firewall services, which specify the type of traffic and the ports that this type of traffic uses. For example, a rule called Web browsing has a service called HTTP, which uses the TCP and port number 80.
Firewall rules also define whether Internet Shield alert pop-ups are shown to you about the traffic that matches the firewall rules.
You may have to add a new firewall rule if you start using a new program or attach a new device to your computer, for example, a WLAN device or an IP camera.
By adding all the services that the program or device needs to the same rule, you can easily:
You also have to add a new rule if you have denied certain type of traffic but you want to allow it to certain IP addresses. In this case, you already have a general "deny" firewall rule. To allow the traffic to certain IP addresses, you have to create a more specific "allow" rule.
For example, if the general rule denies all outbound FTP traffic, you may still want to allow FTP traffic to your Internet Service Provider's site to be able to update your web pages. You can do this by adding a more specific rule that allows FTP traffic to the Internet Service Provider's IP address, and give the rule a higher priority than for the "deny" rule.
Firewall services define the type of traffic to which a firewall rule applies. Network services, such as web browsing, file sharing or remote console access, are examples of these firewall services.
A service uses a certain protocol and port. For example, the HTTP service uses the TCP protocol and the port number 80.
A firewall service uses two kinds of ports:
Whether the port on your own computer is an initiator port or responder port depends on the direction of the traffic:
The responder ports are typically mentioned in the software documentation. The initiator port can usually be any port higher than 1023. However, for some games you may also have to define specific initiator ports. In this case, they are also mentioned in the software documentation.
If you create a new firewall rule, you have several predefined services that you can add to the rule. You can also create and add your own services if the service that you need is not on the services list.
For instructions on how to add firewall rules, see article How do I add a new firewall rule?

I started out deep frying this chicken as suggested but then finished the rest up in the frying pan. Although the flavor was good, I found the breading to be tough and hard and it took way longer then 10 minutes to cook the drumsticks I was using.
I used this exact recipe for deep frying boneless skinless chicken breasts tonight. They turned out amazingly well. The breading was light and crispy and had excellent flavor. Everyone loved it!
This recipe is great! I have to admit I changed a bit around though. I "made" my own buttermilk and used that instead of water.. I pan fried my chicken, and I used boneless pieces.. (mostly because I don't know what a broiler-fryer chicken is, and cutting it up sounded time consuming) I also added chili powder to both mixes, and used more paprika then suggested, also more pepper lol. When I fried the chicken I did 6 minutes on one side and 6 on the other, then a minute and a half on each. Really crispy, really good.. my boyfriend loved it as did my mom, and myself.

Durant will not be the last player to back out of USA Basketball. The fallout from the Paul George injury is going to have a lot of negative effects on the future of USA Hoops: http://straighthoops.com/the_aftermath.html
Durant will not be the last to decide not to play for USA Basketball. The Paul George injury has a lot of people nervous: http://straighthoops.com/the_aftermath.html
I cannot fault Durant for withdrawing. I have every confidence that he is legitimately worn out, and on top of that seeing Paul George's injury must have been the straw that broke the camel's back. Same for Kevin Love (though for obviously different reasons - he has much more to lose given the precarious state of his employment). Both of them have done great things for Team USA and I know he'll be there when it counts the most in 2016. Others, however, have no such excuse. I'm looking at you, Lamarcus Aldridge - where are you at? You announced your withdrawal before anybody even knew they were in, and you have absolutely no excuse for it.
I hope they put Cousins and Drummond on the final team. Those two, plus Anthony Davis and whatever 8-headed hydra of a backcourt Team USA chooses, will be tons of fun to watch.

How "love of God" and "love of neighbor" defines your life, your family, your politics and your future.
ProLifeCorner- By Larry Plachno
Give me a few minutes of your time and I will share with you some of the highlights of 25 years of research into interconnected social problems that will probably change the way you look at society. It may even change the way you look at good and evil in your own life.
Summertime of 2015 marks 25 years since I began research on what some of us call Interconnected Social Problems. At that time I had five kids and was disenchanted with "Political Correctness." I felt that there must be logical reasons for our social problems. Hence, I started research in the summer of 1990 at the downtown Rockford Public library accompanied by two of my kids. For the record, I might mention that I later adopted kid number six and number seven showed up as a pleasant surprise. Hence, I have somewhat of a vested interest in figuring out what is going wrong with our society. Continue reading

Death is no more than passing from one room into another. But theres a difference for me, you know. Because in that other room I shall be able to see.
Light cannot exist without darkness, and neither can life exist without death. But that wont get in the way of extended-life seekers who plan on letting children know (get em early) that the most natural process and fundamental aspect of being alive - is WRONG.
The following is a creepy appeal for Transhumanism and immortality, attacking those who suffer from unevolved pro-death prejudices.
Gennady Stolyarov is afraid to die, and not afraid to say so. He also strongly believes that human beings dont have to die, or at least, will live much, much longer in the future. A writer and transhumanist activist, Stolyarov sees death as something that can be "solved" by technology and science, and one day it will possible to extend life indefinitely. To that end, hes trying to buck the cultural perception that mortality is inevitable, and hes starting with kids.
Stolyarov published the childrens book Death Is Wrong in November, and Zoltan Istvan, author of The Transhumanist Wager, unearthed the story in a post on Psychology Today. Now Stolyarov is promoting the book with an Indiegogo campaign, trying to crowdfund $5,000 to print and distribute 1,000 copies of the book and get the anti-death word out. (Hat tip to "The mainstream of society remains pervaded by the old death-acceptance arguments," the campaign page explains. To get rid of these "pro-death prejudices," the book gives an overview of the major reasons that life extension is feasible and desirable. It makes the case for immortalityfor ages eight and up.
The life-extension movement is one faction of the transhumanism creedthe idea that we can transcend the limitations of being a human being by embracing technological progress. Both radical ideas are certainly gaining traction, thanks in no small part to Googles Calico moonshot project announced last fall, an initiative to study and defeat aging, and eventually even mortality itself ( via redicecreations.com ).
Google, which also raised eyebrows by hiring renowned futurist and AI expert Ray Kurzweil as its director of engineering, has breathed new life into the H+ movement. So much so in fact that just this week, a handful of transhumanist activists gathered outside the Googleplex with signs saying Immortality now, Viva Calico, and Google, please, solve Death.
"This is merely the beginning," wrote the blog the Proactionary Transhumanist about the protest.

I've been banging my head on this one. I think I'm close. (Oracle, SQL)
I've got a table that looks like the following.
Company Code
Apple A
Google A
Microsoft B
Apple C
Google B
Microsoft B
Apple C
Google C
Microsoft B
Each company can resolve to multiple codes. What I want to do is create a SQL statement that for each company will give me the company with code that appears the most frequently. So in my example I'd get
Apple C
Google <nothing since there's no clear max>
Microsoft B
What I've put together so far is the following. This query returns to me the company with the code that appears the most, however if I have a tie between two codes for a company, I get both back. For Google in my example I'd get (Google, A), (Google, B), (Google, C). I want nothing returned.
I believe that I can join the whole thing again with itself and some additional where clauses to filter out the duplicate companies, however I was wondering if there is a better way to do this. What's killing me is the aggregation functions along with the group by since sometimes I get an Oracle single-group group error. Any suggestions are appreciated.
SELECT m1, c.company sp1, b.code ul1 FROM
(SELECT MAX(c1) m1, company FROM
(SELECT COUNT(company||code) c1, company, code FROM table GROUP BY company, code ) a
GROUP BY company) c

Meatballs in Dill Cream Sauce Recipe
My guests really like this recipe and want to know why it's so different from other meatball dishes they've had. I tell them it's the spices I use. I usually serve this as a main dish for lunch. I created this recipe myself "from scratch".

- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1/4 teaspoon dried marjoram
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1-1/2 cups fresh bread crumbs
- 1/2 cup water
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1-1/2 cups beef broth
- 2 tablespoons snipped fresh dill or 1 teaspoon dill weed
- 1/2 cup half-and-half cream
- Cooked buttered wide egg noodles, optional
- 1. In a bowl, combine the beef, pork, onion, seasonings, crumbs and water. Shape into 1-1/4-in. balls and place on a greased rack in a shallow baking pan. Bake at 400° for 20 minutes or until a thermometer reads 160°; drain.
- 2. Meanwhile, for sauce, melt butter in a large skillet. Blend in flour until smooth. Add broth; bring to a boil. Cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Add dill and meatballs. Reduce heat to low; simmer, uncovered, for 15 minutes.

55 minutes ago • By Jim Thomas
NEW YORK • Perhaps Gregg Williams in St. Louis was just meant to be.
On the day the Rams announced that defensive coordinator Tim Walton was not being retained, multiple sources told the Post-Dispatch that Williams is heading back to the Gateway City as the team's new coordinator.
The hiring of Williams — or is it re-hiring? — is expected to become official within a week. He was hired by Fisher two years ago this month, but then came the New Orleans "Bountygate" scandal in March 2012 and an indefinite suspension that kept Williams out of the game for a year.
After his suspension, Williams spent the 2013 season as a defensive consultant in Tennessee, but he was not retained once the Titans fired Mike Munchak and replaced him with Ken Whisenhunt.
Williams' suspension left Fisher in the lurch when it came to running the Rams' defense, and their long-term friendship appeared to be frayed. But Fisher and Williams had a couple of heart-to-heart talks over the past several weeks, and here we are.
When it comes to coaching staff changes, be they hirings or firings, Fisher is about as deliberate as they come. He puts a lot of thought into such matters.
So Wednesday, one month after the conclusion of the regular season, the Rams decided to part ways with Walton to make way for Williams.
Walton's stay with St. Louis lasted just one year, a year in which the team improved over the final half of the season, but still finished near the middle of the pack at 15th in total defense and 13th in scoring defense. Walton still has a year left on his contract, which the Rams must pay.
There were rumors late in the season that Fisher had taken over the play-calling of the defense, which Fisher denied and as did others at Rams Park. But Walton did go from being on the field to being in the coaches' box on game days around midseason.
Had Williams not entered the picture, there's a chance Walton would still have a job. But with Williams' return to the Rams, this is viewed as a chance for a good defense to become a great defense.
The Rams' brief release about Walton's firing contained this comment from Fisher: "I would like to thank Tim for his hard work and contributions to our defense. I wish him well in the future."

Chapter Three: continued...
Through the damned tangles of the cottony-earthly torturous clothing, I could hear the door open. I tugged off the hooded cloth swiftly to see the Dib human staring idiotically at the door, pizza and chocolate in hand. I knew as soon as I saw him I shouldn't have left the field offline. He babbled about getting the food and sorry for one thing or another, but everything he said seemed to spill out of his mouth more than actually speak about anything. I could feel his eyes on my chest and it was starting to make me panic from his lack of attention. Grabbing a hold of his large broad shoulders and gave him a few strong shakes, bringing him back to the filthy planet from wherever his mind had hid away. My toe talons were at the very tip as I reached to clasp ahold of him. He had gotten so much taller, the bastard.
When he woke up and began to be a little more normal I instructed him to sit down on the couch unit and took my clothes with me to a close level in the base. Acting as a room now, storage level A-2 was now a place for my new earth clothes. I found that human use their clothing to torture them rather than define and defend themselves like other uniforms do. Their forms are similar to mine though, so they tend to be quite comfortable. Not bothering to put on a shirt, I pulled a clean black hoodie from underneath my less liked folded laundry. It had a symbol on it that represented some kind of divine figure known as Slender or something of the case. A feared man, I've heard; so he had earned my respect enough to sport him in uniform.
I rushed back upstairs afraid for the Dib's snooping in my living room. I found him where I had left him, the boxes placed in his lap. I sat next to him momentarily. I asked him why he had arrived so early. Apparently, he had gotten off of work before schedule. When I asked why he had arrived so early, his answer seemed strange. Not the actual answer, but the way he said it came out more of an off tone musical note than that of his normal deep voice. He was so white, it was unnatural for him. I studied the spectrum of colors that humans were supposed to turn, but even though Dib's was much paler than normal humans'….it was still off. He seemed to stare as my bare hands for some reason, watching my movements. Knowing Dib, he was probably looking for some kind of weakness. I knew he had always been obsessed with my race's body form and features.
Something was definitely up with the human, but Zim didn't have time for such frivolity as studying the human's "mood swings". I apologized that he had to pick up that slop and directed him to Gir's box. Assuming he could deal with that by himself, I went ahead to the kitchen. Sitting down at the table, I thought once he came inside he would figure out how to feed himself. Apparently I was wrong since he just joined me at the table. Stupid human. I stated that I had made the meal. The idiot questioned why I made human food. Wasn't it obvious that I made it for him? Why would I make human food for me? Assuming that I must have fucked up the recipe or something, I got up and went to throw it out. He hollered at me in a kind of yelp when I did though. I stopped for a moment and just looked at him strangely as I made him a dish instead. I ended up having to get him a damn bowl and set it in front of him. We enjoyed a very tight conversation that I wasn't focused enough to really be in. It felt a little good that the Dib liked my cooking. It was my first real cooking experiment for a human before. It was something for the record, definitely.
After that things were very to the point. He asked me what I wanted him for. He had been tight lipped almost the entire time he was eating. When he used a certain tone to be that suggested I was something lower than him, I felt myself get a little snippy. He had asked what someone like me would want from him. It turned out that he was actually giving me a human compliment of some kind. I let him escape the situation unscathed, but urged him to finish his meal. Zim has such important work to get done. I looked at him now and then to see him slurp up the meaty noodles in hunger. How envious I was. Being hungry for this planet's meals was something Zim had wanted for a while. These pig smellies gorged themselves on the strangest things. Most of which didn't even contain any kind of sweetener. It was hard for me to imagine a substance that wasn't either sweet covered or made with a substance that the human's called "sugar". Before he noticed, I snatched my watchful gaze away from his devouring of the noodle heap; I stared at the wall, waiting for the Dib to finish his meal. The very moment I twitched from the sudden pain of biting too deeply into my own lip, Dib stated he was finished. I must have been thinking too seriously for a moment.
Standing up I felt his eyes hard on me. He had always done it, but it was a little more intense this time. I adverted my eyes to the bowl with unnecessary attention. Done with the dish now, I tossed it into the incinerator. The dark haired human stood up once more. His over baring height was hard to ignore, but I had to if I didn't want to start a fight him. Secretly admiring his height for years, I had grown accustom to ignore the difference between his height and my own. I lead him to the elevator, still not making full eye contact. To be honest with myself I had NOT considered his new height regarding the contents of my elevator. I pretended that I did not notice. It was a thing I really had to think about, taking him to the lab. Obviously not enough though since I didn't think about how the handsomely tall figure of the human could barely fit in the elevator tube with me. He had to crouched with his long legs bent towards his broad chest to even sit in the elevator. He was quiet on the way down besides some awkward attempts at starting a conversation, but I felt him looking up at me. Felt good. It was about time the human looked up to me in some kind of way. Without thinking I let the weight of my hips shift and I ended up pressing my waist against the strength of Dib's shoulders. I tried to pretend like I thought nothing of it, as if it was on purpose. He seemed to be okay with the contact and didn't say anything opposing. My chest fluttered a little at the position we were in. The Dib human had always been handsome, but he had grown into a devastatingly delicious pre-adult. I smacked myself mentally to think so fondly of the human. Deep down I still knew he hated my race and their overall intention. Dib was like the biggest patriot of the world.
We made it to the floor. My squiddlely-spooch pressed into my throatily area as I tried to calm myself. I needed to ask him directly. Zim could not try to trick the human into helping him this time. I want to be more human. If I am to be stuck here…I want a life here; a normal one. Of course, I am never going to give up my superior form of an irken, but I had built this machine to do just what I needed. With the right DNA code, I could control what shape I took; to the absolute molecule. The deeper reason I wanted to be human… could not be known to the Dib yet…., but he needed to know the truth. I needed his DNA signature. Sure, I could have taken it from him in his sleep, but the truth was that I knew he would love this. He loved this kind of science as much as I did. I introduced him to the machine I had created for this experiment. His eyes were filled with wonder at my creation. I set in the proper settings for the Dib to stand in the right tubing, then looked dead at him with his curious questions and sighed.
I took a deep inhale and looked at Dib through the screen. I told him it wouldn't work without his assistance. He, of course, wanted to know more about it; asking nervously what it did exactly once it worked. Sighing again, I admitted what it would do. It would make me human. Plain and simple. Well, not so simple. I told him what I needed. Well, not really what I needed. More like what would happen when I got what I wanted. As I suspected, he was surprised. Wide eyed he seemed intrigued. I was expecting him to shoot me down and my taloned finger waited gingerly on the panic button on the touch screen. To my own surprise he asked me what I needed him to do to help. I felt my eyes jolt back to him, wordless.
"I…uh just go stand…in the uh- right one. It'll only take a moment to program the cross over. Sorry if the tube is a little small…. I didn't calibrate it for your latest heights. The Dib had gotten so much taller. In my own race it demanded respect, but it was hard to treat the Dib in this way. I had to admit though….it made him seem extremely attractive to my species. The keys matched into the places as I calibrated the scan of Dib's tube. The DNA was accepted and I took a deep breathe. My lekkus flattened a little to my head as I walked to the matching tube. I was nervous. I didn't mention it to Dib, but it was actual extremely dangerous to even attempt this. If even one organ was put in the wrong place, I could die from a horrible death. There were no changes being made to the Dib, so he was safe. That fact alone made me feel like it was worth the chance. I was tired of living in exile to my own race and to the humans…I needed to belong somewhere. Entering the tube I faced Dib, directing myself to the computer.
"Computer! Run force copy scan beta one!" I closed my eyes and felt a shiver run up me. This was it. I peeked my eye open one last time before the scan and glanced at the Dib. He was smiling at me. He placed his hand against the glass of his tube and faced it towards me in comfort. My mouth dropped a bit in disbelief at the emotion in his eyes to me. It was like he knew some way that somehow I didn't feel 100% about this…stupid human. Still I reached my claw up and did the same, palm out stretched to him. I closed my eyes once more. Trying not to think this maybe the last time I see Dib without bleeding from my eyes, I forcefully relaxed the muscles in my body. The scan began.

Chapter three:
"I.....brought the pizza." was all I could get out. Zim's alarm system was off, but I don't know why I just walked inside. Why didn't I knock? Why didn't I knock?! Now I was stuck in what felt like time, worse than when Zim actually got me stuck in that time vortex. The skin I couldn't stop thinking of was in front of me, bare. I couldn't stop staring. I must have zoned out because I didn't notice he had moved until he was in my face.
"Dib! Are you alright?" his gloveless hands were on my shoulders, shaking me back and forth slightly, probably trying to bring me back to Earth. "Your huge face is so white! What's wrong?" why was he half naked? Why did he take off his hoodie and his gloves in the livingroom?! No, it was my fault I should have knocked. "Dib-worm!" Zim called out once more.
"I couldn't find chocolate pizza so I bought chocolate bars too." It was the only thing I could think of saying. It's what I had

EARTH FRIENDLY Ch 4
Chapter Four
I was terrified for a moment when I stepped into the tube. Zim could have been easily tricking me to destroy myself, but it's been so long. Why would he try to kill me now? He tapped some codes into the touch screen thingy. It was all in irken so I had no idea what any of it said. Afterwards, he walked towards the other tube. He looked so worried. With his antenna whimpered to the back of his head, he was the very image of vulnerable. This was crazy. Why did he even want to be able to be human? Maybe it was for a better disguise. I honestly didn't care much. I wanted to see if it would work. I wondered for a second on why he didn't just steal a human if that's all he needed. He hated asking for someone's help so why not take someone against their will?
Just as all these question jumbled through my spinning head I glanced over at Zim. He was so pinned up in the tube. His shoulders were tightly pressed near his head in a clinch, almost as
