June 2016
It has been a very busy winter and spring. During the fall and early winter I finished the research for the Grand Marais history book. It took a bit longer than I expected, but I finally started writing the third week of February. I absolutely loved the process – all of it. I decided that I am happiest when I am researching, writing, and developing books and other information resources. In fact the writing went so well, due to my data base, that I finished writing the book in a month. The 6 inch by 9 inch book ended up being 300 pages long with over 200 photos and other graphics.
I decided going into this project that I did not want to have any preconceived notions about what the book would look like, how it would be organized, and what it would contain. Everything was dictated by the research and the data that was collected. After getting to a point that I was willing to stop the research (I could have kept going forever), I sorted the data base by year and information category. Then I started writing. As I wrote, I searched the internet for any other relevant information and included this additional information in the book. As each page unfolded, I determined when graphics were needed to best communicate the information being presented. If I did not have a photo or graphic -- I created one or found a graphic on the internet available for use under a Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike license. The writing process went better than I could have ever hoped. My enthusiasm for the project, I must admit, did result in a lot of very long days. But that is okay since I had a blast.
After having a dozen photocopies made of the manuscript, I distributed them to friends, family members, and hired reviewers. Some reviewers read the book to provide overall reactions, while others examined the manuscript for content, grammar, typos, etc. Thanks to everyone who helped with this review process! Next, I will begin incorporating the changes as soon as I finish this web page update. Finally, I will cut and paste the text from Microsoft Word into publishing software and add the graphics. These two steps will take at least a few weeks. Finally, I'll send the file to the printer! The printing process and shipping will take around a month. I expect to have the book available for sale sometime in August at the museum as well as in the online gift shop on this web page
I had a difficult time finalizing the book's title. I asked many people for suggestions. Thanks to Marcella Schlabach for her submission regarding the first part of the final title, and to Pamela Grath for the second part of the title. Both will be receiving a free copy of the book as thanks for their suggestions. The title is:
Superior Land and the Story of Grand Marais, Michigan
The museum opened for the season the Sunday of Memorial Day weekend. Prior to opening it took a few days to clean and to put the gift shop back together. I have a large supply of agate windows to start the season, as well as a few lamps and lots of Lake Superior agates, polychrome jasper, labadorite, some more of the Brazilian Jequitinhonha plate tectonic agates, and a lot more. A couple of years ago I thought I purchased the remaining specimens from the collection of plate tectonic agates, but more became available.
It is hard to believe that the museum is entering the 18th year since it reopened on July 4, 1999. The hours for the shoulder months will remain the same. In June and September the museum will be open daily from 2-5pm, except for Saturdays Noon to 5pm. In July and August the museum will be open seven days a week, but I am going to close daily at 5pm instead of 6pm. Thus, during this peak season the museum's hours will be daily from 11am to 5pm, except for Sundays 2-5pm. As it turns out, I will be working the museum hours myself all summer except for when I am gone to three shows the second and third weekends of July and the first Saturday of August (see below). Originally I was going to try to find someone to watch the museum one day a week so I could have a day off each week. I have decided not to do that. I have also decided that this is my last summer of setting up booths at the summer shows. Thus, this will be my last Moose Lake Agate Days and Ishpeming show. Most likely in future years I will continue to have a booth at the Cuyuna/Brainerd, MN show in May, the Mason, MI show in October, and most likely the Muskallonge show in September – since it is the "local" show. This year I am not sure if I will have to close the museum while I am in Deer Park at the Muskallonge show or not since I still don't have the museum covered.
Now that spring has sprung we have had a chance to examine the condition of the Grand Marais beaches. Although erosion has continued east of town, the beach west of town has recovered. Last year you could not walk from Woodland Park/First Creek west to Sable River since there was no beach. This year there is not only a beach, but a considerable amount of rock!
Happy rockhounding!

at first i thought "U.S. government? it can't be a scam then" so i gave her my information and my checkings account information. nothing came within 3 weeks, but i decided to be patient anyways, as my parents taught me. after one month, i finally get a call from the same poor-english-speaking indian lady and i had to try again really hard to comprehend what she was saying.
she said a package would still be coming within 14 days. i received a book and a brochure (which tried to interest me in buying some other scam crap some other scam company sent me) 1 month AFTER the last call. i tried calling back, but no one EVER answers, it says it's always busy. i'm pretty upset about it, and yet i feel foolish.
if given the proper resources and funding, i would go down to florida and take proper legal care of them myself.

I ordered a free 7 day trial from the company burnfat2 in May. I approved nothing else other than the $1.99 shipping charge. I then received a package in the mail 2 week later with 2 bottles of the product that I never ordered and my account was charged 97.41.
I never ordered the product and I never approved the charge. I got the number for the company on-line. 1-866-370-7271. I called and talked to a man explaining that I did not order this product and there must be some mistake. He told me to return the product and they would issue me a refund when they received it.
Needless to say, I call everyday.... and everyday I get the same thing. Their computers are being updated but they would pass along my concern to the coorporate office and they will call me back. Nobody ever calls back.
I called again yesterday 6-13-06 and to my amazement their phone is no longer in service. I then really started my investigation.... If you have not cancelled your credit card... DO IT FAST... they will keep charging your card.
Call Glen at the Utah department of cunsumer protection. Glen is the investigator. This company has 800 complaints of fraud agaist them. They have been sued by the state and fined big time. Once you have filed your complaint... you will get your money back in about 1 week. Glen's phone number is 1-801-530-6601.

Guidelines for Using Blackboard
Blackboard is the supported Learning Management System for Duquesne University. As the learning management system for Duquesne University, the University observes the following procedures for its use.
Faculty course sites for teaching
Through Duquesne's course request system, Bb Services, faculty can request the creation of course sites for each semester, along with migration of course materials from previous sites, special site set-up, and the addition of guest lecturers and others to course sites. This process enables Blackboard course sites to reflect the activities and interactions of students and the instructor for a particular term.
For faculty, adjuncts, and graduate students "new" to Blackboard as instructors or teaching assistants, the Educational Technology Center strongly recommends completing the "Getting Started with Blackboard Instructor" workshop, webinar, or self-guided tutorial. These workshops and tutorials introduce instructors and teaching assistants to the primary features and functions of Blackboard, design and navigation best practices, pedagogical uses of Blackboard in teaching, and course management strategies to help prepare instructors for effective use of Blackboard in their teaching.
Faculty are not required to complete Instructor Certification before requesting a Blackboard course site. However, faculty and adjuncts should check with their their School or Department to determine whether or not they require completion of the "Getting Started with Blackboard Instructor Workshop / Webinar or Self-Guided Tutorial."
Graduate Students new to Blackboard in the role of Teaching Assistant, Grader, and/or Course Builder should contact the Faculty member to determine if they should attend training.
For a listing of upcoming workshops, visit the Training Calendar!
Course Ownership
Only the instructor of record, or the department chair or Dean in the instructor's absence, can grant permission for the content of a course site to be made available to another instructor or copied for use by another instructor. Without the permission of the instructor of record, chair, or Dean sent by email to email@example.com, the course material will not be made available to another instructor or copied into another instructor's course site.
Academic Integrity in Course Sites
Faculty and graduate students should consider the following best practices for incorporating University Academic Integrity guidelines and policies in their course sites used for online delivery and supplementing face-to-face courses.
- Instructors should place on the course syllabus a statement referencing the University's Academic Integrity Policy and Code of Student Conduct (see pg. 30). The syllabus should be uploaded to the course site's "Syllabus" content area.
- Instructors should create a link to their school's Academic Integrity policy and procedures. These policies and procedures should be discussed in class, on a discussion board, and/or through a webinar with students to ensure that students understand the policy, procedures, and their rights and responsibilities regarding Academic Integrity in their school.
- It is recommended that instructors create a "honor code/academic integrity" quiz question that asks students to acknowledge their awareness of the University's Academic Integrity policy and Student Conduct Code for the work they submit in the course.
Instructors may also include this Academic Integrity and Student Conduct Code quiz statement before any assignment or in each week's assignment folder, and set it so students must submit a YES answer (that they agree to stated policies) BEFORE the contents of that folder will open.
Student Enrollment
Only officially enrolled students are automatically enrolled in Blackboard course sites. Course sites are intended to meet the instructional and learning needs of those students who are officially enrolled in the course. Requests for adding students who have incompletes or independent study can be submitted by faculty for enrollment through the Bb Services course request system.
Instructors may also request to have non-DU individuals (e.g., guest speakers, experts, workshop/seminar attendees) added to their course sites through the Bb Services course request system. Guest accounts will be created for these users and enrolled in the instructor's site and will have a start and removal date (typically the end of the semester).

I wanted to try to make calzones because they seemed like the perfect little portion controlled item to grab and go for lunch. The cool thing about calzones is that you can pack just about any ingredient in there that you want. Make it meaty, vegetarian or even vegan if you'd like! I've been trying to add a few more veggies back into my diet so I decided to go with my favorite: spinach and mushroom (and a few turkey pepperoni for flavor). Overall they turned out pretty good and they will surely keep me full all week long.
Total Recipe cost: $13.69
Servings Per Recipe: 8
Cost per serving: $1.71 each
Compare to: $5.99 each
Prep time: 20 min. Cook time: 30 min. Total: 50 min.
|2 large
|pizza doughs (16-18 oz. each)
|16 oz.
|part skim ricotta
|8 oz.
|sliced button mushrooms
|4 oz.
|baby spinach
|4 oz.
|whole milk mozzarella
|2 Tbsp
|olive oil
|1/2 tsp
|dried basil
|to taste
|salt 'n peppa
|Compare to
|8 calzones, $5.99ea
STEP 1: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. In a large skillet, heat 2 Tbsp of olive oil. When the skillet and oil are hot, add the sliced mushrooms along with a dash of salt and pepper.
STEP 2: While the mushrooms are cooking (stir occasionally), prep your work area by sprinkling with a generous amount of flour. Using a sharp knife, cut each ball of dough into 4 pieces.
Next time I think I will do a Mediterranean version with artichoke hearts, spinach, black olive, feta and tomato… yum! If you have any good ideas for calzone fillings, post a comment and share them with us!

Beth, had a little of your pizza dough recipe leftover, whipped this up for lunch, with a little ricotta, mushroom, pepperoni, Italian blend cheese just thrown together. Planned to eat only half, but was so good I ate the whole thing. :) Made a dipping sauce with a small can of tomato sauce, Italian seasoning, garlic, onion, salt. Yummy lunch.
We have made these twice now…delicious! Thanks for the great recipe.
Thanks for the recipe. After the pizza, it is the my favorite dish. It has everything that the pizza has but in a convenient size and shape.
You can save additional money (if you have the time) by making the pizza dough from scratch – this is a favourite at my house and by making the dough myself, I save about $3 off the calculations above.
Don't forget pie filling "calzones" or just fruit calzones. Yum
This is great- plus since I make my own homemade pizza dough (ingredients, flour, a little sugar, yeast, and if I have it cornmeal), this is a great way to make leftovers disapear.
I'm going to guess that you can freeze them, although I have never tried. I have frozen homemade pizza dough all the time and the dough that I used for this recipe actually came frozen. The trick is that you need to freeze it before it has a chance to rise at all. Any proofing (rising) that it does will collapse if it freezes. All of the other ingredients freeze well too so I would definitely try it. Sometimes food tends to "seep" liquid when it thaws so it might yield a slightly more "wet" calzone.
your other option would be to cut the dough into the calzone size portions and freeze them. When you want a calzone, thaw one piece of dough and build a calzone out of it with whatever you have available in your fridge. you can put ANYTHING in a calzone! that would be a great way to use up leftovers.
Can you freeze these before you bake them? I'm only one person, but I would love to be able to make a bunch of these on a weekend and then just pull one out at a time.
I wonder what the cost breakdown is if you make the dough at home as well. That's a significant part of the cost.
I make homemade pizzas all the time but never calzones. Yours look so good! I will give it a try.
I love the cost breakdown! It's always nice to see how much you save by cooking at home.
casey – i never thought about the calzone customization for different family members, what a great idea!! also, I LOVE the concept for your blog and i definitely have a few to submit there hahha… i will surely be adding your site to my list of blogs that i love ;D
I love homemade calzones- your filling looks so so yummy! Cool budget break down too.
This is such a great idea. I'm thinking that for my family, I can tailor each calzone to each person's tastes and run into fewer complaints at dinner time! Plus, you've pointed out how economical they are (and still filling and healthy). I also prefer the sauce for dipping, so that the inside of the calzone doesn't stay so blooming hot for so long after they've been pulled from the oven! (Kids don't tend to be very patient when they're hungry.)
Anyway, I found you through TasteSpotting and am writing to say that if you have any photos that aren't accepted there, I'd love to publish them. Visit my new site (below), it's a lot of fun! I hope you will consider it.

GREAT Led Lamp
Bought this as an emergency back up light for the house.. Definitely right choice in regards to brightness and ease of use.. Plus it has over 100 hours of battery life on 4 D batteries.. If you're an outdoors person and need a light, get this- very bright (can't look at directly because its so bright).. but it does the job and seems well made with a nice rubber carrying handle.
- How accurate was the sizing? Accurate
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. Great
- Was the product free of any manufacturer defects? YES
Was This Review Helpful?

Why oh why do people insist on rehashing this old chestnut?Schumacher has gone! OK, he had a long and sometimes controversial time in F1 and he definately made his mark on the sport. Love him or hate him, nobody can deny he was who he was.In the same statement, why not ask can anyone beat Fangio? Streling Moss? Senna? and any other champions you care to name?Who cares about replacing him, move on and get over it. There is enough young, raw talent on the grid these day's, let's just enjoy watching them grow in their own way.

I have a network install of now WP v3.6.1 with two subsites. I'd like to be able to selectively feature content from my two subsites to my main site, whether just as normal blog posts or as "featured posts" in one of the themes with the sliders/carousels.
Is there a plugin or something that allows this?
I'd found this thread:
, but that thread is two years old, and the plugin to which it refers (WordPress MU Sitewide Tags Pages, http://wordpress.org/plugins/wordpress-mu-sitewide-tags/) has not been updated in two years. Plus, it doesn't seem quite to do what I want; the plugin's description seems to suggest that it re-creates all subsite posts on the main site and the example page to which it links is a tag cloud page.
I want more of the ability to editorially choose and highlight "the best posts/content" from the the subsites.
Thanks for any pointers!

It's 2010! Let's get this year, nay, this decade off on the right foot. This will be the decade that you hone in on what makes your body tick. This will be the decade when you develop a lifelong strategy of health and wellness that works for you. This will be the decade when your smart choices about how you move, what you eat and what you think manifest themselves in a strong, lean and healthy body that would make Grok [8] proud.
Believe it, commit to it and act on it.
1. Believe It
You can attain the health you want and deserve. And the Primal Blueprint [9] can help you get there. If you're not so sure read the dozens of Success Stories [10] found here on MDA. Read about Diana's 125 lb weight loss [11]. About Sabrina transforming her body [12] and regaining her energy levels after giving birth to 5 kids. About David seeing noticeable improvements in symptoms related to Asperger's Syndrome [13] just weeks after going Primal. Or about Kristy who overcame IBS [14] and body image issues with the Primal Blueprint. If they can do it, so can you.
If you need a little more encouragement or simply a good kick in the rear these posts may do the trick to get you in the right mindset.
No Better Time Than the Present [15]
Reflect, Regroup, Resolve [16]
Excuses, Excuses, Excuses [17]
2. Commit to It
What better way to begin this journey than a public pronouncement of your intentions? During last year's 30-day challenge many Mark's Daily Apple readers found that stating their goals in the forum [19] gave them just the motivation they needed to achieve their objectives. At the very least this exercise requires you to think through and then articulate what it is you want to accomplish and how you might go about seeing it through. At the most it adds a level of accountability to your ambitions – to yourself and to those in the MDA community that are participating and supporting you in your journey.
This year I thought we'd try this again but with a twist. This is where today's contest comes in. We'll be taking this concept and putting it in video form. See all the details below.
3. Act on It
Have all the belief and commitment you want, but you'll get nowhere without action. Luckily, MDA helps here, too. I strive to give you all the tools, information and resources you need to succeed. The book [9], the forum [19], the recipes [20], the workout prescriptions [21], and the free weekly newsletter [22] are just the tip of the iceberg. In 2010 I'm going to be opening the floodgates. Stay tuned for more publications, more free content and more of everything you love about MDA.
Now, on to the contest and prizes!
The Prize:
A Pullup Bar [23] – And not just any pull up bar. It's a portable, adjustable, polished aluminum, free standing, pullup/dip bar that can support a 350 lb Grok. You won't find this thing tucked behind the cardioglides at your local Dick's Sporting Goods. This bar was built for circus training, and circus folk don't mess around… unless they are clowns. The adjustable height allows for bodyweight assisted pullups if you're trying to work your way up to one pullup. Or if you can already pump out a quick 10, set the bar to a max height of 84″ and get to work on the one-handed pullup. The bar comes courtesy of Trapeze Rigging [24]. Besides pullup bars, these guys can outfit you with an entire backyard trapeze set if you've got a little Tarzan in your Grok veins. Also…
[25]17.5 Pounds of Grass Fed Beef [25] – It's fittingly called the "Inside Round Primal" and it comes from US Wellness [26]. These are the folks who donated a 5 gallon bucket of fat [27] for our 30 Day Challenge last August, and they're pretty much the only place on the web you can find real pemmican [28]. Besides grass fed beef, US Wellness also sells top quality lamb, poultry, veal, pork, bison, and even rabbit. It's the place to go if you're looking for elite meat.
But wait, there's more! In fact, nine more…
YouBars [29] – No ordinary protein bar, you get to pick all the ingredients that go into your YouBar. Want coconut? Almonds? Blueberries? Make it so. The winner gets a box of 13 custom designed bars.
Dark Chocolate [30] – Amano Chocolates [31] are single origin and have won high marks from the prestigious Academy of Chocolate in London (that's right, there is an Academy of Chocolate). The winner will receive a gift box of 10 70% dark cocoa bars [30]. A healthy, sensible vice.
Salad Dressings [32] – The big ass salad [33] (BAS [34]) is one of the cornerstones of Primal eating. And a salad is only as good as its dressing. The winner of the recipe contest will receive a six pack of salad dressings [32] courtesy of Zukay Live Foods. Made from fresh veggies bought from local family farms, no chemicals or added sugars are used in these tasty tossed-lunch toppers.
Resistance Bands [35] – For people who don't have a small fortune to drop on an entire weight set (which is most people), the resistance band is a cheap, compact way to get your strength training done. Rubberbanditz [35] makes a tight little package with a nifty carry bag. If you visit their website, I'd suggest checking out the goofy/endearing promo video.
Bath & Foot Soak [36] – Pampering is Primal [37]; the winner will get to do some serious pampering with a 6.5 lb can of Ancient Minerals [38] magnesium flake bath and foot soak. Good for the constant barefooter. Also included are Ancient Minerals' magnesium gel [39] and magnesium oil [40].
Coconut Oil [41] – Saturated fat [42] is healthy and coconut oil [43] is full of it. The winner gets a 16 oz bottle of the stuff from Barlean's [44].
Coconut Flour [45] – The coconut love just keeps coming with a 2 lb bag of coconut flour from Tropical Traditions [46]. Use it to make some pancakes [47].
That's 11 prizes for a total value of $700! Does your cell phone have a video camera? Then you've got everything you need to enter this contest…

Michigan Senate to vote on "fetal tissue" bills for no good reason
A crusade that will waste time and taxpayer money will do nothing but appease those who oppose legal abortion.
You've heard all the lies about Planned Parenthood — you know, the ones peddled in those deceptively edited videos that claimed Planned Parenthood sells baby parts?
Despite the fact that these allegations have been proven false in state after state, and the fact that Michigan's Planned Parenthood clinics do not participate in the legal donation of fetal tissue for research and other medical purposes, Michigan legislators still plan to push through legislation that would make it a crime to profit from fetal tissue.…Read more ›

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) � The slumping Tampa Bay Rays have turned to a Seminole medicine man to change their fortunes.
Tampa Bay manager Joe Maddon invited tribal elder Bobby Henry to Tropicana Field on Monday in an attempt to help his team, which has the worst record in the majors.
�We just turned him loose on the Trop,� Maddon said.
The Rays had lost 12 of 13 entering Monday�s game against Seattle.
Henry walked around the ballpark and said the Rays are ready �to go get it.�
Maddon has tried a variety of things over the years to liven up his team. He�s brought a python, penguins and a magician into the clubhouse in the past.

« view all Jakarta Gay Massage Spas
Jalan Kemang Utara IX, Ruko Tiara Buncit, Block C22 (Behind KFC) Basmar Mampang, Jakarta, Indonesia
| +62 21 9341 4249 |
Exclusively male massage spa in south Jakarta, with 16 private treatment rooms.
Sphinx's male therapists offer traditional Javanese massage, body scrubs, 'Asmaragama Spa' (which is believed to possess aphrodisiac qualities) and a Caligula hot tub with salt or milk.
Bad Experience
"Just back from the place. Went at about 8.30 pm, waited half an hour. Fine, because I didn't make any reservations.
Was being introduced to their signature 4-hands package, 2 hours for RP180,000. Sounded good. About 9.00 pm, I was taken to a tiny little room – like 4 x 8 feet. Seriously? For 2 masseurs to service me in such tiny space?
Weird atmosphere, bad maintenance, with 70's and 80's love songs instead of relaxing music. A lot of smokers around, bad ventilation, no A/C, so the place smells bad.
Waited in the room for about 10 minutes. Two masseurs came in and started the massage, dry. Yes without oil. Lasted for half an hour, then only with oil for another 20 minutes. Wait! I didn't get to choose whom to serve me?!
Then they informed that the room that I was supposed to use was ready, which has a bath tub to shower after the body scrub later. So had to SWITCH ROOM. What on earth??!!!
The other room was much bigger, like double the space. After a short 10 minute massage, the masseurs asked whether to provide more services, at sky high charges. And the service was just so-so. Probably it was too warm as there was no A/C.
After a very rushing shower, treatment completed. And it's 10.30 pm. Only 1.5 hours. Guys, this place is not worth it."

Personally, I don't like to show that I'm doing any sort of blocking, Especially what I'm blocking or how I'm going about it (Like by IP or Country for example). I'm not a fan of the 401 or 403 responses!
However, this plugin does give an additional option of redirecting users to another page on your site. It'd be nice if it could allow you to redirect to another site all together... But this is still entirely doable!
I created a non-advertized (hidden / not in any menu / whatever) "Site Unavailable" page with a unique slug or path "site.com/site_unavailable" for example. You can add some classy text to the page if you want... I've then configured all banned countries to be redirected to this page. Then I added the below code to the top of my root .htaccess file:
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^site_unavailable.*$ https://www.google.com/ [R=301,L]
So now when a user in a banned Country tries to go to my site, they'll be redirected to the "Site Unavailable" page which will in turn immediately redirect them to {For Example:}Google, off of and away from my site with no 401-403 response or any block notice.
I used Google as an example; but you can put whatever URL you want (Competitor website maybe?) or even a URL that doesn't exist... Anyway, nice plugin that does an important job. Thanks!
Not really sure why some people are saying this plugin is terrible - I've tried all the other unpaid alternatives, and this is the best.
I was getting backend hack attempts about 1-5 times a day, and a LOT of comment spam. When I started using IQBlock this dropped down dramatically - sometimes one attempt a week, sometimes you get a small flurry of a few at once and nothing for 3-4 days. When I started it I didn't get hack attempts for weeks! So it's definitely working. I was desperately adding all of them into Wordfence as IP ranges...which took hours. This just works.
It's not 100% but that's not the plugin's fault - it's MaxMind's free database and that I think hackers register new/fringe IP addresses in IP blocks they know aren't on the database yet. But it's certainly catches 80-90% which is good enough for me, I have Wordfence for the rest.
And when I blocked China from the frontend along with Ukraine, the spam went down greatly - sorry China, but I worked out (using another older plugin called Block Top Spammers that lists the top ones) that all the spam was coming from you!
Only one thing which I think have been fixed which might not have helped - database didn't download automatically in previous versions, and is only every month so when I get sudden uptick in hacks I go and manually click 'Download Database' for both. This seems to stop them for a bit.
Awesome plugin, it truly works great!
For the past month or so I've been blocking on average 100-200 failed login attempts a day. Since installing this plugin when
wordfence alerts me of a failed login attemt and provides me the IP location I simply blocked the few main culprit country's and my failed login attempts have went down to 3-5 a day with some days none. The first time I've seen that behaviour in many years,,
Awesome work even better it's free... Highly recommended..
Thanks again
I'd been getting lots of hack attempts
from all around the world.
A bunch of sites of a friend were infected

At first saw I those negative reviews and left the page, then I did research and found out this plugin might be the best one right now. So I came back and read those positive reviews and decided to give it a try. Guess what, it is easy to understand as an IT system administrator and it works perfekt and immediately.
The interface is totally good. Some thinks it is not easy to work with might because the blocking and firewalling concepts might not easy for those who does not work with IT systems daily. That might be the reason some thinks it is complicated.
This plugin seemed to be working perfectly on another site so I was confused today when it wouldn't block a frontend user test on a subdomain.
I blocked France and CyberGhosted to my homepage and a sample page only to see that I am not blocked. So I blocked Canada (home country) and still managed to see the homepage and sample page.
Suspecting that the plugin may not recognize subdomains I went to log in to my main domain and voila - I am blocked from the backend but not the frontend! And I hadn't touched the plugin on the main domain, assuming that it is even installed there. If so...
Off to my host to delete the plugin, before playing with the DB.
One more thing. Please clarify the double-negative instructions, especially in the 'block backend' section, and don't call the list a blocklist if the list is not already blocked. The x tells me that I can remove a country from the list, not that I can ADD it to a list of countries to block. Forget the x and just say 'select the countries from this list that you want to block'. In my case I'd have preferred an option to select only the countries (mine) that I do NOT want to block. (Is there any reason to let SEs into the backend?)
Furthermore, why even have to select a box to block countries from access if I am then going to have to select countries from a list? The beginning checkbox selection is redundant. The instructions may make a programmer happy but they are very unintuitive.
I've been quite happy with this plugin in the past but now have to check where it may not be working.
I read the previous reviews and was a bit apprehensive because there were (at the time) 20 reviews with only one star. I feel for those people, but I have NOT experienced anything but wonderful success with this plugin!!
I was having all sorts of problems with registration bots coming in from all over the world. All I wanted to do was get registrations from North America. I added this plugin, took my time and got all the settings the way I wanted them, and the attacks STOPPED immediately!
[ Signature and link deleted ]
Everything you need served on a silver platter. It even downloads the Geo IP Database for you... Manage blocking of front end and back end separately and control access to search engines.
I tested from multiple countries and did exactly what it's suppose to do.
It took me 5 minutes to install and configure the plugin. Very intuitive to use. If you read carefully every field from menu to menu you can't go wrong.
Installed on 1 test site and 2 production sites without a single issue. I would dismiss does that claim it doesn't work at all.
Glad to find this plugin. I was looking for a plugin to simply ban all countries except mine, I choose this one over the others because:
- Easy to configure
- Lots of options, even I don't need
- Blocked visitor report
- It works
I tried other plugins, but managed to make them work only after more than half hour. Compare to them, this iQ Block Country plugin really is a no-brainer.
1.1.15 New: No longer blocks category pages of categories you have not blocked.

Skill Level Beginner
In the terminology of 3ds Max, a controller is a program module that can vary some parameter, such as an animation track. Controllers can create procedural animation. It's an alternate way of making things move, instead of the traditional keyframing. To illustrate this, I'll make a bouncing ball using a Waveform Float controller. I'll just create a small sphere in my world and just to make it a little bit easier to see on the screen, I'm going to go into my Time Configuration.
I want to use a custom frame rate of 15 frames a second, because that's the capture rate that this movie is being delivered at. And I also am going to turn off the Active Viewport Only option. That way I'll be able to see the motion in all the viewports. Click OK. Now I'm ready to assign a controller. One way to do that is through the Curve Editor. With the ball selected, I'll go up to Graph Editors > Track View - Curve Editor. The elevation or vertical position of the ball is the Z Position.
I'll select the Z Position track and you'll see currently it's flat. It's a constant value of 0. To assign a controller, I'll go up to the Edit menu and choose Controller > Assign. Now I've got a list of all the possible controllers that could be assigned to this track. The one with the little carrot in front of it is the currently assigned controller. Bezier Float is the default controller for all transforms, and in fact for most tracks in 3ds Max.
In this case, I'm going to choose Waveform Float, and I'll click OK. Now I get a child window popping up, that gives me control over the Waveform properties, such as its Period and so on. I'll minimize the Curve Editor for a moment and play back my animation so you can see that, in fact, now I've got a procedural animation. It's oscillating back and forth. Stop that, go back to the Curve Editor, and I'll make some changes, like for example, instead of a sine wave, as we can see here, I'll do a half sine, and that means it will bounce up and down, and it won't oscillate in that same way.
It will look a little bit more realistic. I'll change the Period, which is the length of the cycle. Let's make it 20 frames, and let's see what that looks like. I'll minimize, rewind and playback. Wow, we're getting a pretty cool bouncing ball effect for free. You'll see however that it's going through the floor. I can just go back into those parameters, and I want to position my time on frame 0, so I can see what it looks like at the very bottom of that curve, and I've got a manual bias here I can adjust.
So I'll just drag this spinner out, until the ball is right on the floor at frame 0. Maximize the view and play that back. Now you'll see the ball is bouncing up and down, and it will actually bounce up and down infinitely, because the Waveform controller is now taking full control over the Z axis. That's a very basic example of how you can use a controller to produce procedural animation.

Health Care Reform: Do Other Countries Have the Answers?
The health care systems of all developed countries face three unrelenting problems: rising costs, inadequate quality, and incomplete access to care. Much analysis published in medical journals suggests that other countries have found superior solutions to these problems. This conclusion is at odds with economic research that is published in journals physicians seldom read, using methodologies that are unfamiliar to physicians.

Making Health Care Work For American Families: Saving Money, Saving Lives
To confront America's health care crisis, we do not need more spending, more regulations or more bureaucracy. We do need people, however, including every doctor and every patient. Every American must be free to use their intelligence, their creativity and their innovative ability to make the changes needed to create access to low-cost, high-quality health care.
