- , John A. LinkAffiliated withPsychology Department, Illinois Wesleyan University
This article presents a Web-based tool for the creation of divergent-thinking and open-ended creativity tasks. A Java program generates HTML forms with PHP scripting that run an Alternate Uses Task and/or open-ended response items. Researchers may specify their own instructions, objects, and time limits, or use default settings. Participants can also be prompted to select their best responses to the Alternate Uses Task (Silvia et al., 2008). Minimal programming knowledge is required. The program runs on any server, and responses are recorded in a standard MySQL database. Responses can be scored using the consensual assessment technique (Amabile, 1996) or Torrance's (1998) traditional scoring method. Adoption of this Web-based tool should facilitate creativity research across cultures and access to eminent creators. The Creative Task Creator may be downloaded from the Psychonomic Society's Archive of Norms, Stimuli, and Data, www.psychonomic.org/archive.

Can you find love advice online? Yes, if you could trust it.
WebMD Feature
April 10, 2000 (Reno, Nev.) -- Shari Dawson (not her real name) was having difficulty with physical intimacy and pain during sex, but was too embarrassed to bring it up with her doctor.
Instead, Dawson found a free Internet site where the doctor posted her question and, in his answer, suggested she get in-person therapy. "The Internet got me on the right path," she says. "I wasn't scared to talk about it anymore. I went to my doctor and found out I had a bladder infection. She also put me on a long-term therapy program with my partner to become more comfortable with physical intimacy."
While the cast of television's "Sex and the City" discuss a myriad of sexual quandaries with ease, in real life, most people -- like Dawson -- will stammer through questions about such topics as pain during sex or masturbation. In fact, embarrassment can be the biggest obstacle between a sexual problem and help. That's where online sex experts can help, says Deborah Fox, MSW, a Washington, D.C., sex therapist with her own web site. "The Internet is useful for addressing sexual problems because people are able to ask questions that [otherwise] make them feel uncomfortable."
Online Roles and Limitations
Fox and other sex therapists offer their expertise online, providing educated responses to a variety of questions. They're quick to point out that this does not, however, qualify as therapy. At "Ask the Sex Doc," for example, William Fitzgerald, PhD, a sex therapist in Santa Clara, Calif., posts his answers to hundreds of questions, choosing the ones he feels are most universal.

Standing on a lower perch of the awards podium at the state wrestling finals last February, Center Grove's Anthony Schoettle knew deep down he could have fared better.
An eighth-place medal, while an impressive accomplishment in its own right, will no doubt serve as inspiration for Schoettle this winter as he makes the jump from the 113-pound weight class to 120.
The senior who by season's end could emerge as the Trojans' all-time leader in wins, pins and takedowns seeks a more exhausting climb on the podium inside Bankers Life Fieldhouse this time around. The higher the better, with the ultimate objective being where state champions stand.
"I think 120 is more of a comfortable weight for me. I can eat what I want, go to practice and have fun. It's more relaxing," said Schoettle, who advanced to the final eight at 113 last season, only to lose three consecutive matches and finish with a 42-5 record. "It's just about going out there and being relaxed."
Schoettle has been a varsity mainstay since his freshman season for Center Grove coach Cale Hoover. It's a career that, going into Thursday night's season-opener at two-time defending team state champion Perry Meridian, has spawned far more success stories than disappointments.
As a ninth-grader wrestling in the old 103 class, Schoettle won a sectional championship at Mooresville before turning right around and capturing regional there. Nonetheless, he hadn't placed at state until the conclusion of last season.
"Winning a medal was big for Anthony. The year before he won regional at 112 and then got a concussion during a practice the week of semistate, so that was very, very disappointing. Anthony is an interesting guy. A creature of habit. He likes what he likes, and he's a gamer," Hoover said.
"You put him under the lights and he's probably going to perform better than he does in practice a lot of the time. He's just been a real solid contributor since the day he walked in."
Schoettle's reputation for liking the big stage is what made his three losses to close the 2012 season so surprising.
"Everything was on course for him until the Saturday of state finals. Anthony's last two matches, he was leading both and wound up losing them," Hoover said. "That's the one thing that has plagued him is if he's had a loss or a tough match, he sometimes has a hard time letting it go."
"They were definitely close matches, and I let the pressure get to me," Schoettle admitted. "I kind of let down, and in some matches guys came back and beat me. I've got to do better and not let the pressure get to me."
Maybe being a year older, wiser and physically stronger will enable Schoettle to again find his way back to the same podium in February, only this time in the 120 division. He has no reservations about moving to the level and is confident it's a step up to something better.

Inside day is a broadly followed trading action for balance with range-bound amount movements. It apparel forex trading in accurate due to the attributes of amount swings empiric in forex markets. This commodity explains central day breakout trading, what forms this pattern, entry/exit points and what to accede back aggravating this strategy.
Meaning of Central Day
The central day is a candlestick arrangement fabricated up of intraday amount ranges apropos to Open, High, Low and Close (OHLC) prices. Back today's OHLC amount bandage lies absolutely "inside" the banned of antecedent day's OHLC amount band, that's an central day pattern, additionally accepted as central day bar. Agenda additionally that the antecedent day's bar can be accepted as "mother bar" and today's bar is referred to as "inside bar". Simply put, today's able amount should be lower than yesterday's able price, and today's everyman amount should be college than yesterday's everyman price. (To apprentice more, see: The Basic Language Of Candlestick Charting).
It should view like this:
High liquidity due to all-embracing trading (generally by big institutional traders), is binding for central day arrangement formation. Effectively, central day indicates a accompaniment of agnosticism in the all-embracing bazaar i.e. no movement in either administration aloft yesterday's range. There can be assorted central day patterns day afterwards day, advertence a connected abridgement in volatility and appropriately the accretion achievability of a breakout.
Why and how do central day patterns get formed?
Understanding the affidavit abaft the accession of such patterns can advice traders atom consecutive symptoms. Here are the key affidavit why central day patterns form:
1) Trend Reversals – The apprehension of central day arrangement accession is aerial back an asset trades about support and resistance levels. About attrition levels, sellers alpha demography short positions and buyers alpha profit booking for their long positions. The adverse happens for abutment levels, back buyers alpha architecture connected positions and sellers awning their abbreviate positions. In both cases, trading occurs in a tighter amount ambit as a trend changeabout gain from one day to the next, creating central day patterns. (For added see: Trading With Abutment And Resistance)
2) Breakouts – Afore an asset amount break any connected perceived abutment or attrition level, a aeon of consolidation is observed. During this time, the amount charcoal in bound range, affecting support/resistance levels a few times, and again break out steeply in one direction. In this aeon aloof above-mentioned to breakout, buyers and sellers body their positions, arch to central day patterns.(To apprentice more, read: The Anatomy Of Trading Breakouts).
3) Consolidation during up and bottomward trends – During able up or bottomward trends, several central day patterns beforehand sporadically. This happens as traders either book profits or add to assisting positions. Losers attack to cut losses or boilerplate out and new entrants advance, assured connected momentum. The net aftereffect is a lot of range-bound trading activity, arch to the accession of an central day pattern.
Profit Taking
The point of finer trading central day is to access connected or abbreviate positions at lower levels in apprehension of a blemish (either from trend changeabout or connected momentum). Compared to the antecedent day, the access amount is consistently bigger by the inherent attributes of central day bar. A tighter amount ambit with anniversary casual day ensures added favorable access prices. Forex traders body models and strategies based on this concept. (On a accompanying note
As with any trading strategy, it is important to accumulate a ambition for demography profits. Central day breakouts action bound accident and aerial accolade for blemish patterns. The risk-reward ratio for central day trading arrangement (1:3 and above) is college compared to added barter strategies (1:2), advertence aerial accumulation potential.
Multiple central confined can advice traders body accumulative positions i.e. accumulating added positions anniversary day based on a trader's criteria. Once the accepted blemish occurs, the accumulation abeyant is decidedly higher. The stop-loss akin can be retained at that of the aboriginal day and while aerial accolade can be able with assorted central bars. In fact, if followed in a acclimatized manner, there is abeyant to awning assorted accident trades with one distinct assisting barter acknowledgment to the bigger risk-reward arrangement (1:3 and above).
The Bottom Line
The artlessness of central day blemish patterns, accumulated with the aerial accumulation abeyant and lower basal risk, makes it a actual accepted trading strategy. Forex is the best acceptable trading asset because of its range-bound amount patterns with common breakouts. Highly aqueous stocks are additionally able candidates for this strategy. Afore aggravating this adjustment out, traders should analysis anxiously and backtest the arrangement afore assuredly allotment an asset to trade.
The EURUSD adjourned on Friday afterward the bearish forex trading signal that we discussed aftermost Thursday. We will absorb our bearish bent this anniversary and we wouldn't be afraid to see amount abatement lower and the declivity resume as continued as amount holds beneath key attrition at 1.1100.
The USDJPY circumscribed on Friday afterward a bullish pin bar signal that we discussed aftermost Thursday in our commentary. If amount holds aloft key abutment abreast 118.30 this week, we would apprehend added upside movement in this bazaar as the all-embracing trend is still up.
A: There are actually hundreds of abstruse indicators for forex traders to accept from, however, there are a few which may be advised the best frequently acclimated ones.
The best accepted abstruse indicator acclimated by forex traders is apparently the moving average. Whether they use simple, exponential or some added aberration of affective averages, about all forex traders accept one or added of the affective averages advised on their charts. The 50, 100 and 200 affective averages are advised the above averages for free all-embracing abiding bazaar trends. Shorter affective averages are added frequently active on lower time anatomy archive such as the alternate or 15-minute charts. Affective averages are acclimated by forex traders to actuate trends and to analyze cogent abutment and attrition levels in a market. Some forex trading strategies are based on crossovers of a concise affective boilerplate over a longer-term affective average.
Pivot points, acclimated to analyze above circadian abutment or attrition levels, are additionally actual accepted with forex traders. Even traders who do not barter anon off axis credibility are usually still acquainted of the circadian axis akin as a abeyant axis point for bazaar action.
Nearly all forex traders advance candlestick charting and view for apparent candlestick patterns as clues to accessible approaching bazaar movement – abnormally as indicators of accessible bazaar reversals.
Many traders accompaniment abstruse indicators acclimated for anecdotic trend and abutment or attrition levels with indicators advised to admeasurement bazaar drive to appraise the backbone of bulk movements. The best accepted drive indicators in forex trading accommodate the affective boilerplate aggregation alteration (MACD) and the about backbone basis (RSI).
As the abeyant for the acceptable bulk of bulk movement during a accustomed day can alter with bazaar volatility, forex traders generally use animation indicators, such as Bollinger Bands or the boilerplate accurate ambit (ATR) indicator.

The engine sounds as if it is EXACTLY what I'd like to have...BUT...do I need some kind of decent screen 'stiff neck' protection?
It also seems I would need to change the seat if I ride for more than a couple of hours a day on it?
Posted: 06/11/2009 at 15:24
The handing felt a sloppy when I first ride it but the factory suspension setting were way off, front was okay but the rear had 52mm of rider sag plus the preload and rebound were both set to 8 clicks out, a bit too soft for me but easy to adjust, now around 38mm 6/8 and feels a lot better.
Tyre seems to have squared off quickly (qualifier IIs) but it has been the winter and not many dry roads, saying that it does inspire confidence and have scraped my boots on both sides. In the wet I have found the tyres excellent, just not sure how long they will last.
Get quite a wind blast at or above 75, so won't please everyone. I have the front fly screen for looks more than wind protection. Really like the Arrow 3into1 but it's expensive and not road legal so cannot make my mind up. Also find it a difficult bike to keep clean, lots of fiddly bits.
The good bits, the riding position and wide bars make twisties an absolute blast, also good for the daily commute too as its very easy to ride slow in any gear, with a surprisingly clean pull even in 5th or 6th. Give it the beans and once it passes around 8k it's rushes in like pressing the hyperspace button, revs very freely and the sound is a bit addictive so you need a bit of will power to keep within the legal limit. As far as wheelies go I'm still getting a feel for it, pulls straight up in 1st and you can travel a reasonable distance but I've not mastered to clutch it up in 2nd yet (me not the bike)
Gets around 130 mile before the reserve light comes on but I've been over 150 before filling up again so it's a good range. The strangest thing is I've become very proud to own a Triumph (last one I had was 1977) but I do think the European bikes have much more style (sorry jap owners) it's my personal opinion.
Definitely a good buy for me and I'll keep it for a couple of years.

I was disappointed with my experience here. I was looking for a local salon but I won't be returning here. It's not that it was a horrible experience it just felt like they were out of touch. While the staff was friendly, they went at their own pace and perhaps because I was there for an offer they didn't want to spend as much time on my hair as the other clients. The main problem was that my hair stylist was colouring someone else's hair at the same time, so kept leaving to check on the other client. She only spent about 15 minutes washing and cutting my hair and the rest of the time I was left waiting while she attended to the other client. In the end her colleague ended up blow trying my hair and she was quick and friendly. Unfortunately the whole thing took nearly 2 hours and I was left with a mediocre hair cut.
Dzelde was fantastic. She was friendly but also had a calming presence. She was quick but thorough and it hardly hurt at all. Great value for money, would recommend to a friend.

Hidden in View: African Spiritual Spaces in North American Landscapes. (Research)
Ruppel, Timothy, Neuwirth, Jessica, Leone, Mark P., Fry, Gladys-Marie, Antiquity
The most significant shift in the study of American slavery and free African Americans in the last 15-20 years has been the movement away from the view of enslaved and free Africans and African Americans as passive victims who were stripped of their culture, and who subsequently derived their identity solely from the white world. Focusing on slavery as a totalising and dehumanising institution, this assimilationist interpretation shapes the view that 'most ante-bellum slaves showed a desire to forget their African past and to embrace as much of the white civilisation as they could' (Stampp 1956:363). Over the last few decades, this approach has been replaced with an emphasis on cultural forms of resistance, the creolisation process, and the presence of African continuities. Within the last year, archaeologists working in New York City have uncovered the latest in a series of discoveries that indicate the strength of African cultural beliefs under slavery, and throughout North America. Arthur Bankoff, Professor of Anthropology at Brooklyn College, led a small team of archaeologists who excavated within a slave dwelling attached to the main house owned by the Lott family of New York (Staples 2001). The house in its present configuration dates to the early nineteenth century and was home to twelve slaves until the end of the 1810s. Beneath the floor boards in a cramped garret that housed the Lott family's slaves, five corncobs were found arranged in a cross or star pattern. Other associated objects recovered included a cloth pouch tied with hemp, an animal pelvis bone, and an oyster shell. Twenty years ago such finds would have been dismissed as the idiosyncratic work of one person, or as domestic debris. However, in the context of new scholarship on African and African American cultural continuity, this discovery in New York City can now be seen as the paraphernalia of Hoodoo, the North American variant of Vudon, derived from West and West Central Africa. These artefacts, both in placement within the room and in content, have much in common with objects used by different African groups in religious practices geared toward the invocation and use of the spirit world. The continued recognition and documentation of such finds has fed the growing study of African cultures in diaspora.
United States historical archaeology touched these issues for the first time in the late 1960s, but achieved recognition in the 1980s with work on slave plantations and urban environments. The first contribution was that slaves had an archaeology. It still remains for the field to come to terms with the impact of its findings on the notion of culture, and perhaps more centrally, its impact on African Americans. The emergence of the idea of African America is new in this context and invokes the creation of new African and European identities in the African diaspora, including within the United States.
Recent studies have examined areas like naming practices, religious attitudes, language, and archaeological patterns in order to examine the presence of Africanisms in the Americas (Holloway 1991; Mullen 1994; Morgan 1998; Gomez 1998; Singleton 1999). Although these scholars have differed in the conclusions about the extent of assimilation or resistance, their intent has been to dislodge the thesis of the absolute power of the master and to insist, to various degrees, upon 'the preservation of African values in slavery' (Stuckey 1987:15). As a result of this shift in interpretation, we now see that Africans and African Americans did not derive their identity solely from masters, nor did they heedlessly internalise the values of the dominant culture. Instead, they refashioned social practices within spaces to accommodate two cultures, African and European, in one environment, including its landscape. Here we write about landscapes because archaeologists can know them. In American landscapes, initially derived from Europe as scholarship has shown for so long, we describe how Africans and African Americans built their own, itself unique to the North America diaspora. …

About Me Midrange Shopper
used for my new dining room table so it is clear and can show the wood...It can be cut to size too..
Fits nicely
By Grandma14
from Modesto,Ca.
I mainly bought this to protect my nice table cloth and it was hard to find this size. It does have lines through where it was folded doing shipping and it does move a lot when you wipe it or move but, I can live with all that it still protects my table cloth and the price wss right. It is a little on the thin side though.

Just wipe and it is clean and the beauty of your table cloth never fadesIt is a perfect fit for my dinette table cloth I also placed one on my dining table. Preserves the tablecloth,maintains its beauty and eliminates the need for washing as any spill of food of liquid wipes of easily.I am perfectly satisfied with them

Great covering over a nice tablecloth that you do want spills - use when grand children come. Plastic could be heavier.
good to keep cloth tablecovers clean
By mother of 3
from oxford, nc
I use it on a table that is used 3 times every day it is thin but tough.
Does a fairly good job protecting table
By The Singing Beader
from OH
This protective clear table cover is easy to trim to adjust to the size of your round table. I put it over my printed elastic edged plastic table cloth, then tucked the edge in the elastic underneath the table. It adds extra protection to the surface. The clear table cloth is not real thick, so cats can claw and chew through it. I replace it about every six months.
You no longer have the 54" X 72"!

I have ordered the 54" x 74" the last few years. Now you no longer have it listed. Please bring that size back! Thank you...
By Jazzygk63
from Birmingham, Alabama
I used this to protect my table cloth from spills and my grand children when they are using the table as a school desk, serves my purposes very well.

My review of the new Nick Hornby in the Toronto Star.
The last few words of the review got lopped off, by the way – it should read "a criticism he seems to anticipate, interestingly enough, with the novel's too-cute 'life goes on' epilogue."
(I also originally wrote "assholes" instead of "jerks." What, you can't say "assholes" in a newspaper? What children read the book section?)

1Fold flat sheet to about 18" wide by 36" long.
2Fold fitted sheet and place on top.
3Fold one pillowcase and place on top.
4Fold these things together in thirds.
5Stuff into the other pillowcase.
6Fold over the top and you should have a neat package with everything together in one place. They will stack quite nicely.
Community Q&A
Ask a Question
- Lay a dryer sheet within the bundle to keep the sheets nicely scented.
- If you have enough space and a lot of sheets, it's a good idea to get a big cupboard with shelves in it for storing laundry. Ideally, it should have each shelf labelled. For example, use such labels as: single sheets, double sheets, outer pillowcases etc.

Remittance - much of it from the developed world's low‑paid workers - is now a huge part of many economies
On the streets of London it isn't hard to find people who work hard all day (or all night) only to send a sizeable proportion of their income halfway round the world to support a family back at home. Some are maids, cleaners or nurses, others work in retail or construction. All recognise that £100 usually goes a lot further in the developing world than it does here.
"I can't afford much," says Nativity Eyan Nyieng, 33, a Guinean national who works as a maid in King's Cross. "But when I can, I send about £100 now and then to my little sister in my home country for her studies." It is not just family members who are taken care of. Bibiche Aiala, a journalist from Congo, sends up to $200 (£127) a month to a friend living in China. Male, an Indian national, gives £50 to £60 a month to a charity back home run by a friend.
They are just individual players in a great global game in which millions of migrant workers transfer more than $500bn back home (or to family in third countries) annually.[view whole blog post ]

We were still planning on hanging out on saturday with y'all -- so many names I need to put with faces (not like I'll remember them heheh) -- it's my Wifes brithday weekend, so it's gonna be a blast for sure. Might even get her to try a rev? heheh They intimidate her, so it may take some coaxing.
We'll be staying at the Chautauqua lodge (almost right across the way from the WKM) at the end of the flying fields for wsikf. Hopefully we'll get a good room and be able to see the festival from our suite.
Arriving sometime Friday midday - leaving sunday.
See you all there!!

Oklahoma City police say woman who kicked out patrol car window reported seeing imaginary people
An Oklahoma City woman who reported seeing imaginary people in her home was arrested after she kicked out a police car window while being taken into protective custody, police said Friday.
Tonya Mendoza, 47, was arrested about 8:20 p.m. Wednesday on a complaint of destroying property after she kicked out the back passenger window of a police car, according to a police report.
Police were called to 4012 Rancho Drive about a disturbance. Mendoza told police there were people in her house who refused to leave and one of them had a gun.
An officer went inside the house and found nobody else, despite Mendoza saying she saw people on the couch, behind the recliner and behind the china cabinet, according to the police report.
Police decided to take Mendoza to a crisis center and reported her husband, Raul Soria, asked them take her.
Mendoza became irate when she was placed in the back of the patrol car, screaming and kicking out a window, according to the report.
She told people walking by that she was being poisoned and raped by police. She then began to gag and foam at the mouth, police said.
An ambulance was called to check on Mendoza. She told a medic that she had ingested crystal meth, according to the report.
Mendoza was taken to the Oklahoma County jail and was released Friday morning.

This volume is an edited collection of my 'Recovery Blog' entries with selected poems and verse added. Chronicled within are insights garnered while learning to trust God (and others) in processes of healing.
Many of my 'wounds' were suffered because of the shortcomings of others, some were self-inflected. Emotional pain, from whatever the source, real or imagined, can be mitigated through experiencing the love of Jesus Christ at work in your life.
It is my hope, that by revealing my life struggles, that even one would be encouraged to fashion their living to become wiser.

Some Eisner award nominees have Oklahoma ties
The 2011 Eisner Award nominees have been announced, and a few nominees have Oklahoma connections.
"Trickster: Native American Tales," edited by Matt Dembicki for Fulcrum Books, features the work of multiple Oklahomans and is nominated in the best anthology category.
The Will Eisner Comic Industry Awards are intended to honor the best in the comic-book industry. They have been awarded since 1990.
The "Trickster" anthology adapts 21 American Indian folkloric tales.
More than 40 people contributed to the anthology as a writer or artist. Joyce Bear, Roy Boney Jr., Greg Rodgers, Michael Thompson and Tim Tingle are contributors to the "Trickster" anthology with roots in Oklahoma.
Author and Choctaw storyteller Rodgers, of Warr Acres, contributed the tale "Giddy Up, Wolfie" with artist Mike Short.
"It's a story that I've been telling for several years, one of many," he said. "It was traditional Choctaw, it had different kind of animals. It was a story that I told that was a trickster tale, and a story that I knew real well. … Out of all the stories, I thought it would be the best one (to) translate to that kind of format."
It's the first comic-book story by Rodgers, who is a writer, storyteller, workshop presenter and oral historian who began his career under the mentorship of Choctaw storyteller and author Tingle.
"As a storyteller and a writer, one of the things I do is try to create mental images using words." Rodgers said. "But to actually see someone else take those words and create images and have that interplay was just a unique and fun experience."
In the awards as a whole, the most-nominated book of 2011 is "Return of the Dapper Men," a fantasy hardcover from Archaia by writer Jim McCann and artist Janet Lee.
DC Comics led all publishers with 14 nominations; Fantagraphics and Drawn & Quarterly followed with 11 each.
Ballots will go out in mid-April to voters, which include comic-book creators, editors, publishers and retailers. The results will be announced July 22 at Comic-Con International in San Diego.
The Eisner Awards are named for Will Eisner, creator of "The Spirit."

Untangle's Multi-Functional Firewall Software
Most reviews are based on trying a product and running it through hypothetical situations to see how it performs. In the case of my Untangle review, I had an emergency for which I needed a Web filter ASAP. I'm the technology director for a K–12 school district in Michigan, and our proprietary Web filter quit working. In order to meet federal requirements for Internet filtering, I had to have a working Web filter, and I had to have it before the next morning—thus, my full-blown, production-level review of the Untangle product. Hopefully, my all-night installation and configuration marathon is beneficial to you.
At its core, Untangle is a Linux distribution designed to filter and manage network traffic. It can act as a transparent bridge functioning between a router and network, or it can work in router mode, both filtering and routing at the same time. I tested Untangle in transparent bridge mode, but if used as a router, it supports load balancing from multiple WAN links (for additional cost).
Untangle is a free product that offers premium commercial options. Although it's obvious the company wants to sell those premium products, the free features are surprisingly robust. (See the sidebar for a comparison of free features vs. commercial add-ons.) For my test, I activated most of the free features and started a 14-day trial of the premium Web filter.
Free Features vs. Commercial Add-ons
Free modules:
Web Filter Lite
Spam Blocker
Virus Blocker
Spyware Blocker
Phish Blocker
Attack Blocker
Ad Blocker
Intrusion Prevention
Protocol Control
Captive Portal
Premium modules:
Live Support
Configuration Backup
Directory Connector
Policy Manager
Branding Manager
Web Filter
Kaspersky Virus Blocker
Commtouch Spam Booster
WAN Balancer
WAN Failover
Bandwidth Shaping
Web Cache
Installation is done similarly to any other Linux distribution. The steps were very simple and mostly automatic. My server was a standard rackmount Dell machine, and all hardware was detected and configured correctly. After initial installation, all configuration is done via Web browser. Interestingly, the Untangle server installs the X Window System and a browser, so configuration can be done directly on the server. I found it more convenient, however, to configure it remotely.
When you first log in to the configuration page, you're presented with a graphical representation of an empty server rack. As you add services, they visually fill this "rack" on your screen (Figure 1). Each service is represented as a service on the virtual rack and can be turned on or off by clicking on a virtual power button. I'll admit it seemed a bit silly at first glance, but after a while, I found it rather logical and easy to use. (It also made it easy to turn services off, which was required as my production day started. More on that later.)
The configuration pages for most services are similar in design. Figure 2 shows the configuration window for the Spyware Blocker module. Although I wish many of the modules had more configuration options available, Untangle provides a decent set of configurations with a very sensible default setting for most features. The biggest frustration I had with Untangle was its extremely limited authentication integration. Although the server apparently will authenticate against a Microsoft Active Directory, I don't have AD in my network. The only other authentication option is to use a Radius server, which quite frankly I haven't had on my network since we hosted dial-up networking. The inability to communicate via LDAP or Open Directory forced me to use Untangled in anonymous mode. That was fine for my emergency situation, but it would be a major hurdle for permanent adoption in my network.

Block adult website
can i use this for block adul site in my network?
Blocking adult sites
If all you want to do is to block adult web sites, OpenDNS may be all you need instead of installing a UTM such as Untangle or Astaro (free).

thanks for sharing your review . This is really helpful for me .

Until recently, IBM's Power Platform was looked upon as being the system that hosted IBM's flavor of UNIX and proprietary operating system called IBM i. These servers often are found in medium-size businesses running ERP, CRM and financials for on-premise customers. By enabling the Power platform to run the Linux OS, IBM now has positioned Power to be the platform of choice for those already running Linux that are facing scalability issues, especially customers looking at analytics, big data or cloud computing.
Running Linux on IBM's Power hardware offers some obvious benefits, including improved processing speed and memory bandwidth, inherent security, and simpler deployment and management. But if you look beyond the impressive architecture, you'll also find an open ecosystem that has given rise to a strong, innovative community, as well as an inventory of system and network management applications that really help leverage the benefits offered by running Linux on Power.Get the Guide

Editorial: Endeavour not the end
Shuttle Endeavour gave a final thrill to perhaps millions of Californians with its "victory lap" Friday, riding a customized NASA 747 from the Bay Area to Orange County before touching down at Los Angeles International Airport. The final destination is the California Science Center in Los Angeles' Exposition Park, near USC.
From the Huntington Beach coastline, including the Boeing plant where much shuttle work was undertaken, to Angel Stadium to Disneyland, people stopped what they were doing for a few moments (there was quite a bit of cheering from dozens of people gathered on the roof of the Register's five-story building in Santa Ana) and gazed at the shuttle and its entourage of jets with pride and no small measure of wistfulness. The youngest shuttle, Endeavour, commissioned in 1987 after the shuttle Challenger disaster a year earlier, completed 25 missions. The shuttle spent a total of 299 days in space and orbited Earth roughly 4,700 times (that's 123 million miles on the odometer).

Endeavour, named after the first ship commanded by 18th century British explorer James Cook, built and outfitted much of the International Space Station. In May 1992, three astronauts made an unprecedented three-person spacewalk to rescue a stranded Intelsat communications satellite. Some months later, the shuttle launched again to repair a faulty mirror with the Hubble Space Telescope. Endeavour transported the first African-American woman to space
For some, Endeavour's final flight signals the end for NASA of an incredible era of manned spaceflight. We would disagree with that conclusion. The future for humans in space is very bright, indeed. It's just that, for America, it will be privately financed exploration. The small but growing private-sector space industry, which already works with NASA and JPL, has already played a critical role in space exploration as evinced by NASA's Mars rover Curiosity.
Endeavour captured the American spirit. It's a symbol of technical prowess and teamwork.

Washington State returns to where season started amid optimism
SALT LAKE CITY — Hope never seemed as high for the Washington State Cougars as the last time they flew into this city's airport.
They were here the last week of August to play their season opener at Brigham Young, a game WSU lost, 30-6, immediately quelling a good amount of excitement about the potential of the Cougars' new Air Raid offense.
Eight games into the season, WSU (2-6, 0-5 Pac-12) is still trying to get it going. A noon game Saturday here against Utah (3-5, 1-4 Pac-12) provides the Cougars a chance to build on a promising performance last week in a tight defeat against Stanford. A victory is needed to preserve WSU's ever-slim bowl hopes.
"We're improving," WSU coach Mike Leach said. "BYU kind of set where we're at, which was not very good."

They've gotten better, and can stack some more evidence that they are, indeed, improving by beating a Utes team that hasn't been as tough this season as many predicted.
Utah usually wins at home — 3-1 so far this season — but its offense has fizzled somewhat without injured starting quarterback Jordan Wynn. The Cougars are preparing for another slugfest, similar to the defensive struggle last week against Stanford.
"They're a good, physical defense, like they were last year," quarterback Jeff Tuel said of the Utes.
And, yeah, expect WSU to throw about as much as it did against the Cardinal, too. The Cougars attempted 61 passes in that game, Tuel completing 43 of them for a career-high 401 yards.
Stanford used 10 sacks to hold the Cougars to minus-16 rushing yards. Utah isn't quite as stout against the run, but the Utes do rank 23rd nationally in rush defense, led by defensive tackle Star Lotulelei.
"Them and Stanford are kind of the class of the league on that," Leach said. "Their thing is they play with one safety a lot and try to outnumber you."
Physical as they might be defensively, though, they haven't been able to push many teams around on the other side of the ball. Running back John White is talented, but he's averaged just 4 yards a carry.
Utah isn't quite as ground-and-pound as Stanford, defensive coordinator Mike Breske said. The Utes use more fly sweep and three-receiver sets. But with freshman quarterback Travis Wilson at the helm, they're likely to run more than pass.
So WSU's goal is similar to its past two games against California and Stanford — stop the run, make the quarterback beat you, then try to score against a pretty tough defensive front.
One positive for the Cougars is that the Utes' pass defense has been prone to the same kind of "explosive" plays that have plagued WSU. For Tuel and a group of receivers showing signs of improvement, this week could be another step forward.
"I think they are a good defense," Leach said. "They've given up some big plays. I think overall, down in and down out, they're pretty big. They've just given up some explosives. They play hard, they run to the ball good, all those things."

I have a CMOS digital circuit with normal supply of +5V. I need to include a D type divide by 2 circuit that has a separate supply of Vss = -6 and Vdd = 0 v. The clock input is derived from the normal logic by a resistive potential divider. How do I achieve this dual power supply? I cannot decide if I have a power supply problem or a digital divider problem since the clock signal is exactly as predicted but no divider digital output, or perhaps, both power supply and digital divider problems.
I am using Pspice A/D, transient analysis

I find it easier to get a 30 kill streak when approaching from the eastern side of the hideout (towards Benedict Pass,) as the enemies seem more exposed, kill the enemies around the barn and then everyone else, but leave 3-4 enemies alive in the destroyed house. Then lob two sticks of dynamite at the house interior, the first explosion should kill the remaining enemies and cause the enemies in the basement to spawn too, the second blast should mop up any remaining enemies either in the basement or around (sometimes the first explosion kills the basement enemies outright as they spawn anyway.) Head out the barn either way and kill one of the next wave, as you do this the two enemies on the ridge will spawn, so kill them quick as they can take you down easily, then kill the remaining few. Don't forget to switch weapons, a rifle is good for long range kills but useless at close range, switch to a double-action revolver or something better.
(This strategy is meant to be done without the glitch by the way.)

It's just educating yourself for your own safety.
Strange. In my younger, poorer days I used to buy used tires from a sketchy little place. I got great prices. Never had a problem.
However, paying for new tires, and basically getting old dry-rotted things is really rotten.

My blog: fatguy.org
Bikes: Surly Big Dummy, 1980s Raleigh Record single-speed conversion, Bacchetta Agio
Selling old tires to unsuspecting consumers is crappy. Protect yourself: check your tires for visual defects, the date, and fill them up with air. The date code isn't difficult to understand once explained. This would be a great topic for those public service announcements.
I recently read a court case from 1936 where a driver was held to be negligent/liable for driving on a tire that was worn down to the cords (blow out caused a crash). The gist of the decision was that drivers in general should know the condition of parts that are likely to become dangerous where a reasonable inspection would have revealed the fault.
I'm not sure if that standard is still recognized or if a similar one exists outside of that court's jurisdiction. But would driving on an old tire fall under the same reasonable inspection? I could see that result.
That's the thing. There's a dispute because selling old new tires is not against the law. Although accidents have occurred that was due to the old new tires, there's still no real law stipulating a shelf date expiration on them. As the video states, many were saying that six years should be the cut off dates. The rubber manufacturers are saying it's all rubbish.
you should be able to store tires for 6 years, but only if you keep them in a cool, damp place with no sun light. Preferably sealed as well.
dry rotting is a good sign that none of the storage guidelines were followed.
Food for thought: if you aren't dead by 2050, you and your entire family will be within a few years from starvation. Now that is a cruel gift to leave for your offspring. ;)
NHTSA website didn't mention it, but they're supposed to be working on a tire aging test. Next milestone is 2012? I did get hit with their pop-up website survey, I left them some comments about putting tire aging on their website.
I store my off-season tires in contractor-grade garbage bags (last longer without tearing).
