TravelPod Member ReviewsHotel de la Porte Doree Paris
I found this little hotel online and was in love with it just from the pictures alone. It's located in the 12th which is about a 20 minute-ish metro ride from the sights, so it's not central but it is right outside the Porte Doree metro stop. This affordable hotel did not disappoint at all. It's very Parisian (or, what my idea of what Parisian is anyway) and the staff are so friendly and helpful. What I loved most, is that it is located on the periphery of the city, which gave me a more authentic and local experience. It's a beautiful neighbourhood with all the amenities you need; pharmacy, laundromat, markets and croissants (but that's another blog) and is within walking distance to the delightful Bercy Village (also another blog). If you're looking for a hotel in Paris, don't look any further.

Historical Traveler Reviews Hotel de la Porte Doree Paris
Overall a great value
I stayed at the hotel with my wife for 3 nights end of October and had an amazing time. The hotel itself is great, very clean and well kept. I was very scared after reading alot of reviews about small rooms and dirty beds etc. But the room i got was very good size for paris hotels and very clean. The metro stop is right beside the hotel so no problem getting around. Patrick was very helpful as was the rest of the staff and they spoke english well so that was an added bonus. They even arranged for a shuttle bus to pick up us at the airport for a very reasonable price since it was our first time in paris it was a great thing.
A few other things too. The bathroom was quite small but still clean. The hotel itself is not in central paris or anything so if you want something closer to central part this is not the hotel for you. The mtero is very convenient so we didnot have a problem getting to the hotel the only drag was it closes at 1 pm so if you are planning to stay out late you will have to get a taxi back. The room is a bit noisy in the morning as i got a room onto the street so if you are a very light sleeper you would wanna get another room away from the street.
Overall the hotel was perfect and for the price of Eur 64 a night it is a bargain very hard to beat. Enjoy your stay
Loved it
great atmosphere and tastefully renovated. Well positioned and not too expensive. Had a wonderful stay. Thanks to all the helpfull staff. hope to stay there again one day.
Paris' best kept secret!!!
I heard nightmare stories about hotels in Paris...dirty bathrooms, moldy sheets, etc. I carefully searched for what I was hoping would be the perfect, clean hotel in a good location in Paris. My friend and I were looking for a "safe" section of Paris, in a clean hotel at a reasonable cost. I came across Hotel de la Porte Doree on tripadvisors, and I was very pleased at what I read. Since I had already done a bit of research on a few hotels in Paris, most in which were already booked, I was surprised when I got a response email back from Christine, saying they had a room available for our week stay at such a great price. I immediately book and for the next few weeks, Christine was so nice in answering any questions that I had in regards to our trip.
I cannot express enough what a perfect location the hotel is in! It's almost like a picture, with the beautiful buildings, the boulangerie across the street, the Monoprix (supermarket) a few stores down, a bank next to the boulangerie and also, for the more daring, a McDonalds at the corner. The metro is RIGHT THERE. Its perfect!
We had a room that faced the street, number 16. Both windows opened up to a perfect scene complete with the window sill flowerbox. Even though we faced the road, the noise outside at night was quiet, great thick windows to block out any noise. Our room was spotless, with beautiful design furniture and paintings. I especially loved the crown molding design on the corners of the ceilings. Our beds were made every day, we had fresh towels and they always supplied us with more shampoo/soap every day as well, even though we took it home as souvenirs for the kids, lol. (by the way, they loved it) The beds were super comfortable. I especially loved how spacious the rooms were (we had a room with two twin beds) plus the "closet" area to hang up clothes, complete with shelves, was perfect for us.
I think the most important thing at the hotel, was the EXCELLENT service we received! We were greeted every day by Patrick the first few days we were there. He gave us excellent recommendations to nearby restaurants and even went an extra step to help us with our metro route every day when we were leaving. He even helped us with our French! The last few days we were there, we were greeted warmly by Christine. She's super nice and super helpful, she also helped us with our journeys through Paris.
I also loved the internet available computer in the downstairs lobby that you can use for a few euros (much cheaper than the internet cafes throughout Paris). It helped us alot to keep in touch with home. Wireless internet is also available in your room as well. Also, they have "light sensor" lighting throughout the hotel, which helped us because we usually came in kind of late. An added bonus! Definately check out the handbook in the room, it gave us great suggestions on the local area. Make sure you stop for a meal at the cafe across the street (its across from McDonalds) Their food is EXCELLENT, so is the bakery across the street. (Dont let the line intimidate you, it goes fast!)
You can stop searching for a hotel now. You found it. :)
Hotel de la Porte Doree is THE BEST LITTLE SECRET in Paris! If you are looking for a real Parisian experience, you just found it. :)
Hope your stay in Paris was as wonderful as ours!

Absolutely loved it!
We stayed here in March of 2002. After our Paris hotel plans fell through, I recalled an article in our local newspaper about a small, quaint hotel run by an American and her French husband. My husband and I decided to give the Hotel de la Porte Doree a try...and we loved it! Prior to our arriving in France, I corresponded by e-mail and received many answers to our questions. When we arrived, they kindly watched our luggage so that we could explore the city until we could check in. The rooms were simple but very nice and I enjoyed the French decor. I found the staff to be more than helpful, the rooms kept very clean. I also appreciated the very nice bathrooms. They are a bit on the small side, but very nice and such a treat after some of the scary places that we stayed while in England. We have suggested the Hotel de la Porte Doree to every friend and acquaintance we have that is even remotely interested in traveling to France, and will always be our first choice while in Paris!
Love...This Hotel and The Staff!
What can I say...This is a "Wonderful" hotel. I stayed at the "Hotel de la Porte Doree" for 8 days March into April, 2004. The rooms are furnished with lovely antique furniture...the rooms were very clean...along with update, clean tile bathrooms. The room was much larger than I expected...(if you ever traveled throughout Europe you know what I am talking about). The owners Lauent and Christina are the warmest, cutest couple. Patrick, (the front desk clerk) is a sweetheart...with a wealth of information about what is going on in and around the city. The hotel has a small breakfast room...where you can purchase coffee, cocoa, tea along with fresh baked french rolls. The Metro, is across the street...only a few footsteps away from the hotel. This area also has a beautiful park...quite large...with a small lake, and a loveley childrens playground. The Paris "Aquarium", is also near the hotel...only 1 1/2 blocks away. If you want to experience the real Paris..."the neighborhood...the real "Parisian"...this is the neighboorhood and the hotel for you. I just loved it...I can't wait to return.
Intimate view of Paris!
My family of four stayed in Paris this past summer, the final days of our first ever trip to Europe. We loved our room at the Hotel del la Porte Doree--there were beautiful antiques in the room, the beds were comfortable and clean, and the bathroom modern and spacious. I wish we'd brought our laptop after realizing they even had wireless internet access! We did not spend a lot of time in our room, but for the excellent price it was a comfortable place to rest while still feeling very much like we were in Paris! The staff was friendly and spoke very good English. We bought a 3-day train pass and went everywhere! While not conveniently located near the airport, it is on a Metro stop. We took a train there from the airport (transferring two times) without a hitch--even the beginners we were! We opted to take a taxi back to the airport on our return, but with the horrible traffic and scary driving (I have never seen crazier driving anywhere), I'd stick with the Metro next time!
We were more than pleased with our experience. If you want to know how friendly they are--my son left his treasured hat and souvenir sunglasses, and they mailed it to our home!
A great Paris experience at a great price!
I was extremely happy with the Hotel del la Porte Doree and would stay there again! Our room was clean and nicely decorated - it had a very French feel to it - and though it was on the small side, as is typical in Europe, it wasn't uncomfortable at all. The shower set -up is not quite what we are used to in North America, but it was perfectly fine. The neighbourhood was great (read: not touristy) and it was mere minutes on the metro to central Paris. There were guidebooks and brochures in a large rack in the lobby, an iron and ironing board were available and I think that it is very forward thinking to not change the bedding every night for the same person(s) - every three nights is more often than most of us do at home. The continental breakfast was very nice too....and all for a very good price!!
Not impressed--stay elsewhere
I took a chance after reading the few comments on this board (which were positive) and stayed at this hotel. I am now skeptical of those positive comments! The brochure and website for this hotel show many a nice-looking scene. Unfortunately, they are all pictures of the hotel lobby! The rooms themselves were not that attractive and had a nasty smell to them (smoke? mold?). The showerhead would not stay in place and was coated with black mold. The room is completely no frills. What is notable is what you DON'T get vs. what you get. You don't get: hair dryer, iron, do not disturb sign, any paris literature in room on surrounding area (Porte Doree), internet access, comfortable beds (too stiff), etc. I noticed that although the bed was made each day, the sheets were not changed--yuk! The tv is small and located hospital-style on brackets up in the corner, making it hard to see from the bed. I saw silverfish crawling around my room. The radiator insufficiently heated the room. The hotel itself is situated literally on top of a metro station. So every time a metro train runs by underneath (5:30 am to 1:30 am each day!), the whole hotel rumbles a little, making it hard to sleep!
There are some good points--the front desk people spoke good english and were helpful. There were good enough food choices nearby. They had paris guide books (like Frommers) laying around in the lobby that you could borrow. And it was right next to a metro stop. Of course with nearly 400 metro stops in Paris, what hotel is NOT near a metro station?! Plus, it is not a centrally located metro station neither--you have to go through a lot of stops and transfers to get to the main attractions.
What made this hotel stand out was that it was the 4th and last hotel I stayed at within a 10 day period, and compared to the other hotels (some of which were nothing to write home about), it was still the worst by far.
You will love it!
It was the first time we stayed in Paris.... and we were so lucky to book a room in this fantastic hotel. We had a cosy, tiny and very-very-very romantic room, en-suite. Very clean and at a very convenient price. Staff (Patrick and Catherine) always helpful, friendly and polite. Great location: Avenue Daumensnil shows you what the real Paris looks like: no tourists, delicious boulangerie, reastaurants and markets at a walking distance. Subway station is just outside the hotel, so it takes only 10 minutes to reach the city center.... but you can also walk towards la Bastille using marvellous Viaduct des Arts. Loved this hotel: no doubt, next time we'll be in Paris we'll stay here.

Officially our first tourist filled day in Paris, as we had previously booked the Paris Pass for our trip. First stop was just around the corner from our hotel, which was the Army Museum, which also had the Tomb of Napoleon and Cathedral of Saint-Louis des Invalides. These areas were breathtaking, with the architecture and artwork on the walls and ceilings just amazing. The Tomb of Napoleon and hall was huge. Photos attached. Next stop was the La Conciergerie, where we ...

Really you ate turkey sandwiches DURING labor? I'm in awe. I couldn't really eat anything once it began...though sipping things was ok. I'm just imagining this woman sitting on a birth ball taking big chomps between contractions and its an amazing image

Spectral and temporal cues to pitch in noise-excited vocoder simulations of continuous-interleaved-sampling cochlear implants112(2002); http://dx.doi.org/10.1121/1.1506688View Description Hide Description
Four-band and single-band noise-excited vocoders were used in acoustic simulations to investigate spectral and temporal cues to melodicpitch in the output of a cochlear implantspeech processor. Noise carriers were modulated by amplitude envelopes extracted by half-wave rectification and low-pass filtering at 32 or 400 Hz. The four-band, but not the single-band processors, may preserve spectral correlates of fundamental frequency Envelope smoothing at 400 Hz preserves temporal correlates of which are eliminated with 32-Hz smoothing. Inputs to the processors were sawtooth frequency glides, in which spectral variation is completely determined by or synthetic diphthongal vowel glides, whose spectral shape is dominated by varying formant resonances. Normal listeners labeled the direction of pitch movement of the processed stimuli. For processed sawtooth waves, purely temporal cues led to decreasing performance with increasing With purely spectral cues, performance was above chance despite the limited spectral resolution of the processors. For processed diphthongs, performance with purely spectral cues was at chance, showing that spectral envelope changes due to formant movement obscured spectral cues to Performance with temporal cues was poorer for diphthongs than for sawtooths, with very limited discrimination at higher These data suggest that, for speech signals through a typical cochlear implant processor, spectral cues to pitch are likely to have limited utility, while temporal envelope cues may be useful only at low
Investigating alternative forms of clear speech: The effects of speaking rate and speaking mode on intelligibility112(2002); http://dx.doi.org/10.1121/1.1509432View Description Hide Description
Sentences spoken "clearly" (and slowly) are significantly more intelligible than those spoken "conversationally" for hearing-impaired listeners in a variety of backgrounds [Picheny, Durlach, and Braida, J. Speech Hear. Res. 28, 96–103 (1985); Uchanski et al., J. Speech Hear. Res. 39, 494–509 (1996); Payton, Uchanski, and Braida, J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 95, 1581–1592 (1994)]. However, it is unknown whether slower speaking rates are necessary for highly intelligible speech or whether an alternative form of clear speech exists at faster (i.e., normal) rates. To investigate this question, talkers with significant public speaking experience were asked to produce clear and conversational speech at slow, normal, and quick rates. A method for eliciting clear speech was introduced that ensured the clearest possible speech was obtained at each of these speaking rates. To probe for other highly intelligible speaking modes, talkers also recorded sentences in two other speaking modes: soft and loud. Intelligibility tests indicated that clear speech was the only speaking mode that provided a consistent intelligibility advantage over conversational speech. Moreover, the advantage of clear speech was extended to faster speaking rates than previously reported. These results suggest that clear speech has some inherent acoustic properties that contribute to its high intelligibility without altering rate. Identifying these acoustic properties could lead to improved signal-processing schemes for hearing aids.

We are foooked!!!
No centerback.
The one thing we really really needed and they don't buy one.
Are the people at spurs thick or something?Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies
Am amazed we did'nt get Samba or Cahill.
This transfer window sum up the gulf between us and the other top 4 teams (and Liverpool).
I'm as enthusiastic now as before the Hearts game and after Liverpool & Man C games.
I guess we must have a warchest for the next transfer window when we are 20 behind the leaders and are knackered playing 2nd rate Euro teams.
Looking at the money in, money out situation, it seems pretty clear that Levy doesn't reckon 'arry will be around long term, and is building a pot for the new guy.
Lets hope Scottie Parker can run around in front of the central defenders a lot, clearing up, otherwise we are, as you say, "foooked".
The Modric saga will be interesting to watch though.

that is a good point robin. i never thought about that.
but surely even levy can see a good CB was needed.
now we are stuck with injury prone king & gallas or mistake ridden kaboul & dawson.
Graeme Simkins Graeme Simkins Sep 1, 2011 13:53 Flag
I'm as disappointed as every other Spurs fan.
However, I have a different theory:
I think Levy's planning to build a new stadium.
Trevor Constance Trevor Constance Sep 1, 2011 19:10 Flag
If Levy is going to build a new stadium from scratch Graeme, i'd forgive five years of mediocrity to see it done properly.
Surely would have shipped modric out if that were the case, cos we wont get a better offer than 40m, thats 5%+ of a stadium right there!
I agree with the stadium plan...
Yet the Arse have a fantastic stadium but seem to be going backwards...
I do believe that since the PL, especially since Roman came and now Citeh's billions, it's just going to spiral...who's going to be the next big takeover?
I am genuinely concerned about some of these teams if the big money pulls out...or how many clubs will go bust in the meantime trying to compete.
I think in Levy we've got a guy who has stood by his word, has a business head, can bring in a player like VdV on good terms, and a manager in HR who can bring stability.
Graeme Simkins Graeme Simkins Sep 2, 2011 09:48 Flag
I'm putting 2 + 2 + 2 together but may be getting 7!!
I think the wage bill has had to be chopped and the minimal amount of new faces in to save cash. The cahill deal didn't go through because - allegedly - we wouldn't stump up the extra 2 mill that Bolton wanted.
Levy must be getting to the point where he realises the Olympic stadium is a no-go irrespective of what the judicial review comes up with. Spurs didn't meet the criteria and thats all there is to it.
Modric is already out player and an integral part of the team, the fact that he's worth £40m+ is irrelevant. Its no good us having a sparkly new stadium if we're in the Championship, hence not selling our best players.
This all just my opinion but Levy and, probably more importantly, those above him know full well we need a bigger stadium to be able to raise our pay structure. In turn we'll be able to attract better players. No point paying through the nose for ok players in the meantime.
I believe we need a bigger stadium more desperately than getting into the CL next season. Maybe they're thinking the same and decided they might as well just get on with it.
Trevor Constance Trevor Constance Sep 2, 2011 16:53 Flag
I share your point of view Graeme and believe this may be what Levy and the board are starting to prepare for, but you have to admit while doing this we'd all love to see Spurs continue with the good run we've been on over the last couple of years. If we can't, like i said, i'd accept premiership survival until it's done and dusted.
Getting to the point, i don't envy the board , Levy or 'Arry because the club still needs to spend money on players, the prices being inflated by PSG, Man City, Chelsea etc, just to stand still. A fine balance, i for one wouldn't like the headache.
I think they may have got the balance right this season, if that's what is happening, and the club should forget about the olympic stadium and announce the new site or the plans for WHL's revamp.
I guess what i'm asking is: how do you save money for a new stadium while keeping the fans happy and continuing to 'grow' the team?
I sort of disagree with the WHL revamp - would prefer Levy swallow his pride and just agree to keep the bloody running track in the OS and move in the fall of '12.
I'm not buying the whole argument of people will not show up because the view will be terrible with a running track. There are plenty of stadiums out there that operate as football stadiums that have running tracks. Look at 'Estádio Olímpico João Havelange' in Brazil - the view doesn't look all that bad.
Sure the view from the top of the Olympic stadiums end caps might be bad but you can always heavily discount those seats or close the area of.
Add in the superior transportation links and the attractiveness of the venue and you open up opportunities in the off-season for other events i.e. revenue generation.
Seems like a no-brainer to me. Get a stadium as quick as we can to keep the momentum going.
Graeme Simkins Graeme Simkins Sep 5, 2011 10:18 Flag
Trevor, I know what you're saying that we'd love us to continue the good run we had whilst sorting out the new stadium. But I think that what we've done is demonstrate just how difficult it is to be in the Champions League and do well the Premiership to ensure you qualify for the CL again the next season. To do that you have to have immense quality in depth. That means more big-name players and more big wage-earners.
We need a consistently larger income to compete and that only comes from a significantly larger stadium complete with naming rights etc.
Tim, I know what you're saying, almost ready-made stadium etc but I genuinely believe that running track will detract from the atmosphere. I know we're one of the loudest sets of fans in the Premiership/any league but that track is a passion-killer!!

He retired after 19 years as a copy editor for the Miami Herald Broward Edition, and before that was editor of the American Orchid Society's publications. Orchids, including many of our native species, are among the first flowers he remembers as a child growing up in Homestead. He has been a longtime member of the Florida Native Plant Society and prior to that was a member of the original Native Plant Workshop.
Upcoming Field Trip
Sunday, May 15, 2016: Collier-Seminole State Park
The 7,271-acre Collier-Seminole State Park includes one of three original stands of royal palm trees in Florida, within large areas of mangrove swamp. We will walk first on the Royal Palm Hammock Nature Trail/Boardwalk (might be good for spotting birds). Next, we can visit other features such as the last existing Bay City Walking Dredge (a National Historic Mechanical Engineering Landmark), eat lunch and decide what other areas of the park to visit. See https://www.floridastateparks.org/park/Collier-Seminole. On the way back east, those interested will visit areas along Tamiami Trail which burned in recent months and should have abundant new growth and spring wildflowers.
Time, address and directions are in the newsletter mailed to members. Please join to enjoy all the activities of the chapter!
- Bring: Sun and mosquito protection, water, lunch

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) is making changes to improve its scientific integrity. The move comes in part because of mistakes discovered in the panel's 2007 assessment, including the incorrect statement that Himalayan glaciers would melt away by 2035. Last year, the InterAcademy Council, a coalition of national scientific academies, recommended changes to IPCC to address these and other issues (C&EN, Sept. 6, 2010, page 15). At a meeting . . .

GREENLAND — N.H. State Police have charged a Hampton man with reckless driving after he was clocked traveling more than 100 mph on Interstate 95 Wednesday morning.
The State Police Special Enforcement Unit was using an aircraft for traffic enforcement detail when a motorcycle driven by Scott Gardiner, 22, was seen traveling 107 mph, according to a press release. The incident took place at about 7:40 a.m. on a section of I-95 in Greenland with a 65 mph speed limit.
State Police said in a press release that the Special Enforcement Unit routinely uses aircraft to patrol state highways during commuting periods and holidays.
Trooper Craig Gagne stopped the motorcycle and took Gardiner into custody. He was later released on bail and is due in Portsmouth District Court Sept. 8.

It has been awhile now since I have worked for Cellular Sales under the management of Mike Baker and after being told about this rip off site and seeing all the truth in the comments about this company I felt it therapeutic to help anyone who might read this to stay far away from this company as they possibly can. My disdain for this company compelled me to post here because of the lack of equal opportunity for women in this environment. I witnessed first hand the anguish Mike Baker caused to his wife while he was cheating on her with another co-worker during the last several months of 2009 and while employed there this current year. I had to personally console his distraught wife while she would visit the store and listen as to why he was doing this to her after being married for only a couple of years.
You may ask what does this have to do with anything well it has everything to do with equal opportunity because during this time the employee he was fornicating with and who I will not mention by name (first initial is M and last initial B) was getting the best shifts despite her not reaching the goals that were mandated by Mike in order to stay on the schedule. Mike Baker blatantly was dating this woman, a co-worker, and giving this person the best shifts and the best money making stores while others with better numbers were dealt less. I was lied to about the integrity of this company and the possibility of a great working environment. Beware of employment here and shopping here. This company is a dead end for anyone who works there unless you enjoy being a pon!

eBay Unveils $287M, Energy-Saving Data Center in Utah
eBay's new $287-million Topaz data center in Utah is now officially open, housing the company's core businesses — ebay.com and PayPal.com. The data center is 50 percent less expensive to operate than the average of all other data centers eBay leases thanks to many energy-efficiency features including a power usage effectiveness (PUE) rating of 1.4.
The data center is a 240,000-square-foot two-story building with three 20,000 square-foot rooms to house IT equipment — one for eBay Marketplace, one for PayPal and the remaining IT room for further consolidation work.
Dean Nelson, eBay's senior director of Global Data Center Strategy told DataCenter Knowledge that it is a fault tolerant Tier IV level data center that is also 30 percent more efficient than the most efficient data center in its portfolio. "At a designed PUE of 1.4, it lowers both our economical and ecological costs. We only consume the energy we need, when we need it."
Nelson shared project details and photos in a blog post at Data Center Pulse.
Here are some energy-efficiency details of the new data center.
eBay is using 400-V power distribution, which eliminates an entire level of transformers and delivers 230V to the servers, saving 2 percent in power costs.
The data center is cooled using a water-side economizer system, which is supported by a 400,000 gallon cistern that collects rain water. eBay expects to use outside air to cool the data center for more than half the year.
eBay is also using in-row cooling units for close-coupled cooling, and a hot air containment system to isolate the hot and cold air within the server area. eBay says it can support power densities of up to 30kw per rack using this design.
The company expects to earn Gold-level certification for the facility under the U.S. Green Building Council's Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) program for energy-efficient buildings.
Reader Comments
Is this the new data center that still cannot handle the extra load created by the insane dumping of all un-indexed store items into core, to the detriment of many (all?) sellers and probably eBay itself? Good onya John, you've done it again …
And, for anyone seriously interested in the deviousness of eBay's executive management generally, and in particular eBay's demonstrable and deliberate criminal facilitation of the rampant shill bidding fraud being perpetrated by many unscrupulous professional sellers on buyers, particularly on nominal-start auctions, an introduction thereto (along with some PayPal horror stories thrown in for good measure) can be found at
eBay/PayPal/Donahoe: Dead Men Walking
But what many ebayers would like to know is all of ebays listings ebing served from there.
And can Topaz handle the 110 million items that ebay now has, without resorting to rolling blackouts.
With that amount of server power running, I hope eBay considers energy saving and environmental issues a top priority. Siting is definitely one of the most important factors that affect the energy consumption and environmental effects of a server farm. There are places with cooler climates than in the continental US and with more green electricity available. I would recommend anybody considering siting a datacenter to take a look at the Finnish website on these issues: http://www.fincloud.freehostingcloud.com/

SSPE: Managing security policies for multiple firewalls
The Simple Security Policy Editor (SSPE) helps you organize your network and keep track of security policies across multiple firewalls. You can reference a central policy to generate rulesets for packet filters and VPN gateways.
Many networks require multiple firewalls. Firewalls guard the Internet gateway, separate the departments within an enterprise, and help to connect remote sites through VPN technology. In this scenario, it helps to have a central tool for managing firewall security policies. The pioneer in this field was the Checkpoint Firewall-1 GUI [3]. But this commercial package tends to be overcomplicated, with an overabundance of features – not all of them useful – adding to the tool's complexity. The free Simple Security Policy Editor (SSPE) [1] is far leaner. SSPE is basically a collection of shell and Perl scripts that help admins manage a distributed firewall environment.

Here's the views of some guests from abroad at the Limmud conference published over the past few days:
"The weather was awful, and the food not much better- but everything else about this annual British-Jewish mega-event was fabulous" "Judy Maltz of Ha'aretz
"Too often Jewish commitment is translated as simply writing a check, and these days even that behavior is sadly diminishing. What if we learned from Limmud, and expected more of each other — more of our time, our brains, our creativity and commitment? The best of Jewish life isn't necessarily free. The young leaders of Limmud taught me that." Jane Eisner of The Jewish Daily Forward
"By honouring individual journeys, Limmud encourages the collective journey that its conference represents. It's an artful move. Large Jewish gatherings are usually homogeneous — one movement, one ideology. Limmud is 2,600 attendees, 2,600 movements, 2,600 journeys."
David Suissa of The Jewish Journal, LA

World Bulletin / News Desk
Imam of Kaaba, Sheikh Maher al-Muayqali prayed for all Muslims living under tyranny, beginning with the ones in Syria, following the tarawih prayer on Saturday.
All hands were opened in prayers for Syria at the Kaaba on Saturday.
Thousands of Muslims said "amen" in tears as Sheikh al-Muayqali performed a qunut prayer so the bloodshed in Syria ended.
Al-Muayqali began his prayer by saying "My Allah, we hold you, all angels, and creatures on land and in the skies as witness that you are the only God, that there is no other God, and Muhammad is your subject as well as your prophet".
The emotional moments of Muslims saying "amen" to each prayer of al-Muayqali were reflected on screens.
"God, do away with the problems of Muslims in the world," al-Muayqali cried to God.
"Oh, our Lord who hears us, who knows everything we hide and openly state, the holder of eternal mercy and benevolence, our God, correct the situation of the Muslims under tyranny in Myanmar, Palestine and Syria as you are the one with most mercy. My God, help them get rid of problems, end their bloodshed, give cure to their patients, make their poor rich, have mercy on their dead, and help their works," al-Muayqali said in his prayer.
"Protect them from evil that may come from their right, left, from the above and beneath. My God, I complain to you about the Jews, the tyrants and the lustful. Undo their unity and decrease their strength. My God, make us part of those whose prayers get accepted," al-Muayqali also said in his prayer.
The annual pilgrimage is expected to take place this year from September 9-14.
According to newly released data collected in 11 countries with significant Muslim populations, views of ISIL group are overwhelmingly negative
Gentle hearted Saladin Ayyubi, was one of the world's greatest warriors - chivalrous, humane, agile, brilliant and courageous. On October 2nd 1187, 828 years ago yesterday, Jerusalem was liberated pushing back the surging wave of Christianity out to engulf the Holy Land. he conquered Jerusalem, pushing back the surging wave of Christianity out to engulf the Holy Land.

VIDEO: Off the court with IU Volleyball
Thu., May. 12, 2016
WHAT HAPPENED: Wisconsin was good enough playing its slow-down game to keep No. 2 Indiana from playing its uptempo style and pulled off the upset with a 64-59 win over the Hoosiers in front of 17,472 at Assembly Hall on Tuesday.
The Hoosiers fell to 15-2 overall, 3-1 in the Big Ten, and will likely slide back down in the polls on Monday after climbing up to No. 2 from No. 5 this week. The Badgers (13-4, 4-0) take sole possession of first place in the conference.
It was the Hoosiers' 11th straight loss to Wisconsin in the series. However, it also snapped a six-game winning streak going back to Indiana's loss to Butler on Dec. 15, and it was Indiana's first loss at Assembly Hall since their 77-74 loss to Minnesota on Jan. 12, 2012. The Hoosiers had won 18 straight at home.
WHO MADE IT HAPPEN: Wisconsin had four players in double figures. Senior forward Ryan Evans led the group with 13 points to go with eight rebounds, and also hit a critical off-balance, late-in-the-shot-clock jumper late in the game to stem an Indiana run.
Sophomore guard Traevon Jackson added 11 points, senior forward Mike Brusewitz and freshman forward Sam Dekker added 10 each. Ben Brust had nine, and he and Jackson combined to hold IU senior guard Jordan Hulls to 2-for-8 shooting, four points and three turnovers against three assists.
IU sophomore center Cody Zeller had perhaps his most dominant half as a collegian with 18 points on 8-for-8 shooting in the first half, but the Badgers held him to 1-for-7 shooting in the second half and he finished with 23 points as well as 10 rebounds. Senior forward Christian Watord had 11 points and junior guard Victor Oladipo had 10, but no one else scored in double figures. Hulls and Ferrell were a combined 4-for-16. The bench scored a total of two points after scoring just three against Minnesota.
WHY DID IT HAPPEN: Wisconsin played it's brand of basketball and made sure the Hoosiers could not get out in transition at all.
Indiana tried to full-court press to try to hurry the pace and create turnovers. That didn't help much, as the Badgers only gave it away eight times, which is actually below their Division I-best average. The Hoosiers therefore scored just seven points off turnovers and three points on fast-breaks.
So that left the Hoosiers in a half-court setting most of the time and it didn't go well. They couldn't get perimeter looks, couldn't find space to drive, and couldn't find anything in the mid-range either. Across the board it was their worst offensive performance. They made just 37.0 percent of their field goals (20-for-54) and 25.0 percent of their 3-point attempts (3-for-12). They were able to get it to Zeller in the post in the first-half, but in the second half, the Badgers made sure he was always facing double-teams and generally having lots of guys in his vicinity anytime Indiana even thought of giving him the ball. They almost totally snuffed out the pick-and-roll game, and the Hoosiers basically had no offensive recourse.
On the other end, the Badgers were able to beat Indiana off the dribble, get into the lane and also find drive and kick options. The Badgers didn't have a great shooting night, but did hit seven 3-pointers and 45.1 percent of their field goals, which was plenty on a night when scoring — as it always is in Wisconsin games — was at a premium.
WHAT DOES IT MEAN: The Hoosiers will assuredly fall in the polls and they've taken a costly loss at home in a league where it is very difficult to win on the road. Wisconsin now has a one-game advantage on the rest of the league, and even though the Badgers started slow, the rest of the teams in the conference certainly can't be pleased to see that.
That being said, the Hoosiers can look at one partial bright side — they don't have to play Wisconsin in Madison this year, and the only other team that will be so dedicated in their attempt to slow Indiana down will be Nebraska, a team that doesn't have nearly the talent Wisconsin does. On some level, the Hoosiers may have provided a blueprint for how they can be defeated. It's best to make them spend as much time in a half-court setting as possible. Conference play is by its nature significantly slower, so the Hoosiers were never going to be able to consistently run the way they did against North Carolina and other non-conference foes, and this gives teams even more of a reason to try to limit possessions. But no one is as dedicated to playing slow and as philosophically committed to that objective — in the way it recruits and the way it schemes for every single game — as the Badgers are, so it's unlikely that any other team will be able to grind it out to this degree.
Tom Crean
"First and foremost, we just didn't make enough shots. Tonight when we weren't making enough shots, especially ones taht were open, we also didn't come down and stay as disciplined as we needed to be defensively. They beat us off the dribble a little bit , and the first half, our main problem was that we were holding our rotations too long and over-helping on defense, which is something you don't need to do against Wisconsin. What Wisconsin does is they bait you with their drives and they beat you with their kicks, and we didn't do a good job against that. When we over-helped they made shots. In the second half, they made some shots at the end of the shot clock that reminded me of the McDonald's, Michael Jordan/Larry Bird H-O-R-S-E commercials. When you get momentum going, it's amazing what can happen."
"We were not consistent. We had guys that played too hurried and too rushed. We had guys that didn't cut and move the way you need to cut and move. Sometimes you need to cut and move just to move the defense."
"We missed a lot of shots," IU coach Tom Crean said. "We missed 34 shots. A lot of things gotta go right for you if you missed 34 shots. … It's gonna cut into your possessions. You gotta shoot the ball well against Wisconsin. That's part of it. When teams play well against them, they shoot the ball well against them, and we didn't."
Cody Zeller
ON getting fewer looks in the second half
"They were clogging up the middle more. But it was the same thing. Shots not falling."
Victor Oladipo
"We didn't really defend the dribble well. They were getting in the lane, and making tough shots and stuff like that."

Great write up, but there were two points I didn't fully agree with.
1. I would LOVE to go back up to Madison and play them again. Wisconsin is tough, obviously, but they played about as well as they could possibly play. I was a little surprised at their relatively low shooting percentages, because it seemed at times they were hitting everything they threw up– especially the end-of-shot-clock Hail Mary's. We play again, and it's probably a different outcome. Plus, I don't want our seniors going out having never dined on Badger meat.
2. I'm not sure this is the blueprint for how we can be defeated. If you said this last week, you'd probably be saying the blueprint was to press us. And UW had two completely different strategies. First half was to deny the perimeter. When Cody destroyed them inside, they clogged the middle and made us shoot from outside. The latter was the more effective strategy tonight, but I doubt teams are going to count on us missing 75% of our threes and just about all of our midrange jumpers.
To expand on the 2nd point Punjab…
I think this is as good a blueprint for beating IU as any. Here's the caveat – there are only a handful of teams in the country who play Wisconsin's style. FSU comes to mind. Ohio State plays a similar brand this year out of necessity due to a lack of offensive options. How many other teams have enough talent and size to succeed in that style against IU?
Now if you're talking about a team that has talent and size to compete with IU employing a slow it down, grind it out style for one game to try to beat us… then I would have serious questions about the team's discipline and ability to carry out that gameplan when it's not their normal style.
Wisconsin lives and breathes what they did last night. They do it every game of every season. They don't change it to match up with an opponent.
I guess I'm just not that worried about some team playing out of character in the tournament and doing it so well, with so much discipline, and hitting such big tough pressure shots at the end of the shot clock that they pull an upset against us. Seems unlikely.
Agreed. Wisconsin is a severe matchup problem for us, especially with such a limited options. But I still think if we play 10 games against them this year, we win 6 or 7 based on the usual production from our bench that just wasn't there this time.We'll probably split with OSU, too. But unless you're tailor-made to play this style of game, I don't see many teams trying it out.
Let's just hope we don't have this type of matchup nightmare on the tourney. When it's all on the line, we do to want to rely on jumpsuits in a half-court offense as our only source of production.
Ha. Jump shots, either.
Very disappointing loss. If we can't get out and run, we are in trouble. The half court offense is a mess. The bench has been nonexistent the past few games. If there was anyone that was suited to match up with Wisconsin, it was Will Sheehey and he was no where to be found. I saw swagger out of the Badgers (that's what happens when you own a team) while I saw fear out of the Hoosiers. The defense wasn't really that bad last night although I saw way more blocking fouls than I normally see. It was like we were a step slow on their drives. They hit free throws at the end that pushed up the score (So much for being a bad free throw shooting team).
Back to the half court offense though. It's so predictable. We don't set screens other than the high ball screen that Zeller sets practically every play. We don't set screens to free up Hulls or any of our shooters or Zeller down low. We don't make adjustments at all especially at the beginning of the second half. Does Crean not realize that the other team is going to make sure Zeller is going to have a harder time getting the ball? Other coaches aren't stupid but they sure make our coaching staff look so. We are more athletic than Wisconsin is but the IQ and consistency is lacking for this team. It's like we are missing that glue guy down low. The guy that does all the dirty work setting the screens, getting the rebounds, playing great defense. Watford isn't that guy and it hurts us in physical games. Hulls is the same way in a physical game because his specialty of hitting shots is worthless if we can't get him open. Hulls should be handling the ball less as he struggles bringing the ball up the floor against pressure and he struggles against bigger players trying to create his own shot. Luckily Wisconsin wasn't that athletic otherwise they would have killed Hulls off the drive too. Crean does him no favors with this offense.
I still think we are a good team. We definitely haven't peaked yet but I thought we would have learned more from the Butler loss who played a similar style. We can still win the conference but we are going to have to get a game that we didn't think we were going to get before (i.e. Minnesota or Michigan) or get some help somewhere else.
I am really wondering if IU is a better overall team this year than last. Subtract VJ, Pritch, Roth, Healthy Elston from last year's group and the only thing we have to add back in is Yogi. Yogi is better than VJ but by himself is he enough to make up for the other losses.
I don't see any improvement in CWat, Hulls, Will, or Remy. Now that we are playing league games, these players have slid back to their level of play from last year. VO is definitely better and Cody is stronger but has also been inconsistent at times. The rest of the movement are not ready to help this year and Elston and Creek are going to miss most of the season with injuries.
I am beginning to believe that finishing where we did last year is probably about as good as it gets for this team. I love the kids. Great attitude, go to class, etc. but just don't see these kids able to compete at a championship level.
Did Elston get in the game at all? Is he hurt?
I am not sure why elston was just not redshirted given he has missed half of the season already. The movement was way way overhyped. I would agree finishing like last year is about as good as it will get. Probably a 4 or 5 seed in the tourney.
Didn't redshirt him because we already have a scholly problem next year.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but we could use some more injury updates. I get on here pretty regularly now, but I rarely see much more than "Elston/Creek could return next game" when it comes to how are guys doing. We've seen that for a few games now. What are their real statuses?
And what about the freshman? Hollowell played well in limited time, and Parea shows glimpses of promise when we realize he's in the game. At least he's an inside presence four 90 seconds at a time. That t could prove invaluable, like it has for most of the last three halves when our jump-shooting has failed us.
Sheehey is playing like he has narcolepsy. Can Dustin check into that?
I guess Will only has "energy off the bench" when he can shoot 3's on Cupcakes so he can prance around like a 5 year old on Christmas morning getting his first Star Wars toy.
All about "having fun" instead of getting out there and working at it against a tough team.
5 points TOTAL……from the ENTIRE bench…for TWO games?
looks like remy has been taking shooting lessons from watford. not good. especially for a guard.
#11 was Laffy's most astute comment of the year. IU's bench has been a huge liability the last two games. They either need to pick up their offensive productivity or be content with setting up their teammates' offense. The bench is hurting the team badly.
Just to add to the excellent comments here. What's up with Hulls? He hasn't been much of a factor lately either and he was forcing way too many shots last night. IMHO he is also a liability on defense. Last night was such a frustrating game to watch, because you know these kids a capable of so much more and they were at home and couldn't defend their own court! Go Hoosiers!!!
I know we lost and we will lose more and hopefully we will learn from them and get better, but I never want to hear about how Zeller played like a little girl against Butler! Enough is enough, he has taken on 2 of the big ten's toughest team down low and held more than his own. Last night he had a double double with 23 points and 10 rebounds against Berggren who owned him last year. This year he had 5 point and 4 rebounds. He also held his own against Mbakwe and Minn. He has learned to play tougher and the 1st half he was great. So it is time to move on off of Cody. Now our bench has disappeared. We can win Big Ten games without our starters getting some rest and we can not have a drop off in play Will, Remy and Company need to step up. Also our "star Point Guard" can't have a games with only 1 assist. He shoots poorly already and he has to make up for it with assists and defense. We are 15-2 with a lot of game left to get better so go Hoosiers.
Just because Cody had one good half against Wisky doesn't mean he didn't play like a girl against Butler.
And he went 9 minutes….again…..without even taking a shot against Wisky.
Don't tell me "best player in America" when he's only good half the game.
This ntalk about Butler? Aren't they ranked #13 in the country & rolling right now?
Crean put them up there by not playing Cody last play of the game. Why was Cody (zero fouls) not there at that point? Soon you will see Wisconsin #13 and rolling. Guess why (they are not ranked right now like Butler was unranked when they played us.)
I never said he was the best player in America! I said it is time for u to stop calling him a little girl because of 1 bad game. I really don't know why I am trying to reason with someone who is unreasonable. My bad. Please continue with your worthless ranting about how bad Cody and this team are, in your opinion, and we will see when March rolls around how really good or bad they are because that is when it counts not losing to Butler or Wisc. but how well we do in March madness.
Cody didn't shoot the ball for 9 minutes against wisky when we needed him so stop saying it was "one bad game."
He played one good half that game.
And I said he was a little girl in THAT game…..not overall.
By all means, go ahead and continue your rants since it is clear trying to be rational with you is impossible, but I would ask that you quit referring to poor play by CZ and our team as "playing like a girl" or "playing like a little girl" or "playing like a bunch of girls." It is insulting to women. Just because they are generally not as athletically gifted as men, does not make them any less an athlete, or competitors, or any less physical when they play basketball, hockey, soccer, or any other sport. They compete as hard, if not harder than men, knowing that their careers will likely end after high school or college. Male chauvinism really does not look good on anyone.
Let's just say that Cody went all "Sprockets" against Wisconsin in the 2nd half.
Is that other guy Patrick Swayze?
Oh, Jesus.
A girl can play as hard as she possibly can and she'd get DESTROYED playing against guys.
So, you're "stop being a sexist" = MAJOR FAIL
Again, you missed the point. Of course women would get destroyed against men in basketball. I am not disputing that. But when you say "playing like a girl", you are insinuating the player or players is/are playing with less effort, not playing physical, and not playing up to his/their potential. That is the sexist part. How hard is it to avoid using such language?
At least some of you are beginning to realize thar CreaN IS NOT A VERY GOOD x and o,s coach, probably a very nice person but he,s not a very good basketball coach. Never adjusts his game plan {if he has one} and his recruiting class for 2012 is turning out to be a joke, I think he is a complete distraction on the sideline, he needs to sit down and think about what is going on.

Journalist Jennifer Senior Examines The Paradox of Modern Parenthood and Asks: What Effect Do Children Have on Their Parents?
Thousands of books have examined the effects of parents on their children. But what are the effects of children on their parents?
New York magazine's Jennifer Senior addresses that question in a discussion of her new book, All Joy and No Fun: The Paradox of Modern Parenthood, on Thursday, June 5, 2014, at 6:30 p.m. at the Central Library, 14 W. 10th St.
Senior doesn't dispense parenting advice. She instead examines the history and changing definition of what it means to be a parent, analyzing the many ways in which children reshape their parents' lives - whether it's their marriages, jobs, habits, hobbies, friendships, or internal sense of self. Drawing from history, sociology, economics, psychology, philosophy, and anthropology, she dissects both the timeless elements of parenting and more recent developments.
Along the way, Senior delivers a series of family portraits, starting with parents of young children and progressing to parents of teens. Through lively storytelling, she follows these mothers and fathers as they wrestle with some of parenthood's deepest vexations - and luxuriate in some of its finest rewards.
As a contributing editor for New York magazine, Senior has written about pop culture, social science, and politics.
Admission is free. A 6 p.m. reception precedes the event. RSVP at kclibrary.orgor call 816.701.3407. Free parking is available in the Library District parking garage at 10th & Baltimore.
