The works, by Renaissance artist Titian, are worth £150 million each but have been offered to the National Gallery and the National Galleries of Scotland for a third of the price.
Now the Government is likely to be asked to help towards the campaign, which has until New Year's Eve to come up with the money or risk losing the paintings abroad.
The two works - Diana And Actaeon and Diana And Callisto - are being sold by the 7th Duke of Sutherland.
The Duke is looking to raise £100 million, and could sell any of four Titians, three Raphaels, a Rembrandt and eight Poussins, which form part of the Bridgewater Collection in the Edinburgh gallery - one of the most important private collections of Old Masters on loan to an institution in the UK.
Both national galleries are attempting to secure government funding and cash from public arts bodies to buy the Titians, which will go on rotating display in London and Edinburgh.
The Department for Culture Media and Sport today confirmed that the Government was looking at providing some of the cash needed to keep the paintings for the nation.
But the DCMS distanced itself from claims that it was looking for an emergency Treasury grant of up to £20 million and said the National Heritage Memorial Fund and private sources were being actively considered, saying only that "discussions were taking place".
A spokesman for the Duke said: "He has offered these two works to the National Galleries on favourable terms. There is no intention of selling these paintings in particular. If this still does not go through there is a possibility that these paintings or others within the collection of equivalent value could then be sold on the open market."
The paintings in the Bridgewater Collection-were among the first privately owned Old Master paintings to be made accessible to the public in Britain.
Visitors were able to see them in a London townhouse on certain days from as early as 1806 and they have been available to the public almost continually ever since. The collection was formed by Francis Egerton, the third and last Duke of Bridgewater, known as the Canal Duke. Most of the paintings were acquired following the dispersal of the Orleans Collection after the French Revolution in 1792.
The collection passed by descent to the late 6th Duke of Sutherland, who in 1945 placed the most famous works from the collection on loan to the National Galleries of Scotland. The Titians, purchased by the Duke of Bridgewater in 1798, were painted as part of a cycle of works for Philip II of Spain. National Gallery director Nicholas Penny said: "For a century, the agitation to preserve great works of art in British collections from export has been animated by anxiety that Titian's great paintings Diana And Actaeon and Diana And Callisto might be sold.
"Now the paintings have been offered on remarkably advantageous terms."Reuse content

Chapter 37Mature
So this was snow.
Sparrow stared at the vast expanse of whiteness that gathered in masses in such a bitter cold land and her mind blanked for a moment. So much powdery coldness. So innocent looking and so simple, yet it chilled her so heavily to the bone.
A heavy gust of wind howled against her, sending her already frozen body into heavy fits of shivers. Her teeth chatter heavily as she looked around the glistening world.
"I'm cold." She finally managed to say, her tongue almost frozen stiff.
Sparrow had never been in the cold before. Not at least some place this cold. Galvinda was never colder than a day with freezing rain. It was never really warm either, but snow was foreign to the city and Sparrow had never experienced cold enough that would keep her fingers from responding.
She rubbed her blue fingers and breathed out a frosty breath as she stumbled forward in the snow, slowly realizing that this whiteness was probably killing her. She shouldn't have ever so rashly ran down into the snow. Now she was turning blue because of it.
Blue. That's funny.
Sparrow giggled at the fact that she was turning blue. She wondered what she looked like, but moments later, another gust of wind knocked her over and she couldn't crawl back up again. So there she laid, frozen stiff, so frozen in fact that a smile was literally frozen into her face.
"You look cold."
Green eyes. It was those green eyes again.
Sparrow wanted to respond, but the only thing she could manage was a flutter of her eyes. What was his name again? After that encounter, Sparrow had inquired about him and learned of his name, which was escaping her mind at the moment.
It was Lee.
She could feel his hand touch her hand and draw back in shock, a sudden look of concern on his face.
"You're freezing." He waved his hand in front of her and when she didn't respond, he looked even more concerned. "Are you ok?"
"Cold." Sparrow finally managed to gasp before her eyes slid shut and she could no longer keep them open. She tried to picture what she looked like - a ravishing blue beauty, curled up in the snow, long eye lashes feathered with flakes of white. If only she were wearing a white billowing dress of some sort. That would certainly add to the scene much better than the hideous woolen overcoat she wore.
Moments later, she felt something wrap around her and big arms pick her up.
"Let's get you out of here." Lee had taken off whatever he had been wearing on the outside, wrapped it around her. Sparrow could feel the residue heat from the coat quickly disperse. She really must be as cold as an ice cube.
She wanted to protest. She wanted to say that she would be fine, and that he was going to catch a cold, but that was her being stubborn. Deep down, Sparrow was glad that someone had found her.
As Lee brought her back up to the warmth of the ship, she wondered if she would get sick from this.
She still wanted to see herself blue.

Former Law Lord Lord Steyn hit out last night (Wednesday 29 November) at the government's record in Iraq and called for the restoration of the international rule of law.
Speaking at the annual Law Reform lecture held by the Bar Council's Law Reform Committee, Steyn criticised the government's foreign policies, and said that by combining forces with the US Tony Blair and his cabinet had played a part in "undermining the international rule of law".
Steyn told the audience in the Inner Temple Hall: "In the cabinet of Prime Minister Blair two things are apparently forbidden. The first is to say that the Iraq war was a disaster. The second is to say that the world has been made a more dangerous place as a result of the foreign policy of President Bush and the Prime Minister. The pretences must at all costs be kept up. But the public does not believe these fairy tales."
Steyn also said that "it was a black day for the rule of law" when the Attorney General, Lord Goldsmith, gave his "clear and positive opinion" that the invasion of Iraq by the UK and US would be legal.
Comparing Iraq to Vietnam, Steyn said that it was time for British troops to withdraw from the embattled state.
He concluded by saying: "We must move on from the tragedy of 9/11, we must move on from the total obsession with the war on terror, and we must try to restore the foundations of an international rule of law worthy of the name."

LEBANON TWP. The Vikes won four of five games last week and are now 6-7 after an 0-4 star t. "We are starting to come together as a team, starting to come alive with our bats and getting some decent pitching," said coach Exley, despite her team's tough 7-6 loss on the road to Warren Hills on Saturday in a Hunterdon-Warren County Tournament pigtail game. "We didn't deserve to lose this game, but one thing I can tell you, my kids battled back over the last two weeks, and we have become a pretty decent team,' ' the coach added. "We still have work to do, goals to achieve, but I was proud of the effort from my kids. A lot of good things are happening, and we are only going to learn from this and be better."
The Vikes opened the season with the four losses in a row, but bounced back and six of their last nine games, with four in a row this week before Saturday.
The Vikes began the week with a 7-4 win over Skyland Raritan Division foe South Hunterdon as soph center fielder Emily Shumski had a huge day, going four-for-four with two runs scored and an RBI, while Stef Connolly and Jamie Pflugfelder each had two hits and an RBI in the win.
"Shumski turned it on over the last couple of weeks, and is just driving the ball," said her coach. "She is a young talent, and growing up with each game. She has been very impressive at the plate for us, and it came at a nice time to give us a lift."
Senior righty pitcher Kelly LeDoux allowed just three hits andstruck out eight.
"Both LeDoux and Kate Schlagle have pitched well too, and we just have to field better behind them," Exley noted. "I think we have turned the corner as a tea m, and now we just have to step up another level."
In a 13-8 win over Somerville, the Lady Vikes got an 11 strike-out performance from frosh pitcher Schlagle and three more hits and two RBI from Shumski.
Senior first baseman Christina Grodkiewicz has also come alive with her bat, drilling a double and triple in the win over the Ville and driving in four runs.
"Christina Grodkiewicz has been just tremendous, as a leader on and off the field, and she has just been swinging a very hot bat of late. She doesn't get near the recognition she deserves as an athlete, but she has really raised the level of her game this year. She has been amazing."
The Vikes then knocked off North Warren, 5-3, as Grodkiewicz smacked a three-run triple, and Connolly had a two-run triple for the Vikes. Shumski and Schlagle also had two hits each and LeDoux fired a two-hitter.
On Friday the Vikes whipped up on Warren Hills, breaking a five-all tie with a big five run fifth inning. Junior outfielder Cindy Conklin had a four-for-four day and scored twice, while the hot Shumski had a bases-clearing triple in the second inning to bring them back from a 4-0 deficit.
"The thing I liked the most was the fact that we came back not once in the game , but twice," said coach Exley. "This young team will not quit, and really has been rising to the occasion."
Grodkiewicz also had three hits in the 18-hit Vike attack and drove in two runs with a double and triple. She also scored two runs. Pflugfelder had two hits and two RBI, and LeDoux fanned eight Streak hitters.
On Saturday, in the dust bowl that is Warren Hills' field according to the coach , the Vikes fell short, 7-6.
"We were down, rallied again to tie it, but give Warren Hills credit, they got the key hits at the end," said Exley. "But, we did help them with some errors, and we can't afford to do that."
Pinch-hitter Carrie O'Dell smacked a double that scored two runs in the last of the seventh for the win for the Streaks.
Again it was Grodkiewicz with the big hit to bring her team back, a three-run triple in the seventh to give the Vikes a 6-5 lead.
"Right now our goal is to be .500 by the state tourney cut- off date of May 11, " said Exley. "We want to play in the state tourney because it would be a great experience for this young team. We don't care where we go, as long as we go, and right now we have to win each game as it comes one at a time.
"But, we have had some big efforts from a lot of kids, and we are getting better, the confidence is there now," the coach noted. "We know we have some big games ahead, games that we have to battle to win. But, I know these kids will battle now. We just have to cut down on the errors and mental mistakes."
DIAMOND DUST Here is a very scary statistic…Hunterdon Central has now scored 137 runs and has given up just nine in 15 games, with three of them in a 4-3 win over Jefferson in the finals of the Red Devil Tournament two weekends ago.
Last week the Devils out-scored four opponents, 33-1, capped on Friday with an 1 1-0 win over 8-2 Westfield as junior righty Andrea Pastiglione fired her second no-hitter of the year with seven strike outs…she lost her perfect game in the seventh when a Westfield runner was safe on an error, but then was picked off fi rst…Pastiglione faced just 15 batters in the five-inning game.
Soph shortstop Christina Boyer had two of the 10 Central hits and drove in two runs.
Central started the week with a 5-0 one-hitter by junior righty Autumn Garribran t over Phillipsburg…Garribrant lost the no-hitter in the sixth…she fanned nine and walked just one…senior right fielder Kate Jenkins had two hits and drove in three runs for the Devils, and Pastiglione had an RBI hit.
Central dumped Watchung Hills, 6-1, as junior first baseman Kate Arico had two h its and drove in three runs and Melissa Burke had two hits and two RBI…Pastiglione allowed just four hits and fanned nine.
Garribrant then threw a two-hitter in an 11-0 win over Bridgewater with four strike outs…Pastiglione had two hits one a triple, and drove in two runs…Crystal Epright had three hits and an RBI as well.
North Hunterdon (4-6) opened the week with a 4-3 win over Bridgewater as Lori Morse drove in the game-winner…Cheri Raffo had two hits and an RBI as well for t he Lions as Kelly Ramos got the win.
North lost to Watchung Hills, 9-1, with Kirsli Spinks getting the RBI hit…North popped Piscataway, 18-11, in a wild one as Morse had four hits, with two doubles, and drove in four…Julie Liley had a two-run triple and both Spinks and Lea h Simonetta run-scoring doubles.
The Lady Lions lost to Hillsborugh, 7-6, on Thursday as Raffo and Simonetta had RBI singles to tie the game…Jessie Teich had an RBI triple.
Voorhees has games with Immaculata, at home with Belvidere and at DelVal on Thursday, May 3.
Central is top seed in the Hunterdon-Warren County Tournaments and will play at 2 p.m. on Saturday against Warren Hills…North is at Delaware Valley in another first round game on Saturday at 2 p.m.

Maxxie: Relax.Mature
Don't ask me where the idea of going to Mexico with Alex came from, because I have no idea. I guess I just need to get away from Hollywood for a while. I've already discovered that business as usual doesn't help anything when it comes to getting over stuff.
Hadley goes kind of quiet and I start to worry. Is he blaming himself for my panic attack? Is something bugging him that he didn't want me to know?
Those questions bug me all the way to the restaurant, and while I'm sure we manage to make idle chatter on the way there, I can't help being a little bit wound up at myself for how reluctant I am about... well, about everything right now - leaving the room, sex, knowing Hadley only wants sex because he thinks I'm going to leave him if he doesn't put out... the list goes on.
I start paying attention again as the waiter comes over to take our orders. Hadley gets some kind of carbonara thing and I dither for a moment, trying to remember what it is I usually have when I come here. Mushroom something. Eventually I remember and as the waiter turns away, I move my attention back to Hadley.
Which is weird, because usually, in true whore-Maxxie fashion, I'd check the waiter out to see if he's worth giving a tip. That's right. I tip waiters on how they look. I'm shallow, I get it.
I smile at Hads but I honestly don't know what to say. Now that I've zoned back in, I can't make my brain work. He smiles back and glances around, though what he's looking at, or for, I can't tell.
I take a sip of the beer I don't remember ordering and wonder vaguely where Laurence is tonight. Laurence used to work at the cafe with me, but he'd moved onto bigger and better things - namely this restaurant. Maybe he'd moved on again. He used to ramble about how he wanted to set up his own restaurant and that if he had to make coffee for ages to get there, he would. He was pretty dedicated... no one should want to have to make coffee every day for years on end.
Blinking, I realise my brain is rambling at me in an effort to make me find something to say, but why would Hadley want to hear about Laurence?
In the end, I don't need to think of anything to say. The food shows up in record time, even for this place, and Hadley - to my surprise - tucks straight in. Note to self: learn how to make carbonara.
"Remind me to get the recipe for that," I mutter with a smile as he wraps the last few strands of spaghetti around his fork. He laughs a little, helping me relax a little more.
"Why?" I gesture at his empty plate wordlessly, and a smile pulls at his lips.
"Maybe you'll even manage a dessert," I suggest, finishing my own meal.
"You never know."
"They make their own ice cream here. Some special Italian recipe. I don't think I've eaten ice cream from anywhere else since I first had it." I might have had some Ben and Jerry's at some point, but only because it was in the freezer and I felt self pitying.
"I like ice cream," he smiles again and I return it, passing him the dessert menu as the waiter returns and collects our plates. He stares at it for a while before putting it down.
"You choose." I give a slight laugh.
"I was gonna have ice cream," I shrug. I'm such a kid. Ice cream for dessert? You're nearly twenty six, you idiot.
"Well I'll try whatever you think I'd like," he smiles and when the waiter returns, I order us both ice cream, ignoring the little voice in the back of my head telling me to grow up. "This place is really nice," he says, another smile on his lips.
"Glad you like it," I manage a small grin, and lean over to kiss him. He kisses back, humming and I feel myself relax a little more.

This study compares reading comprehension of three different texts: two mathematical texts and one historical text. The two mathematical texts both present basic concepts of group theory, but one does it using mathematical symbols and the other only uses natural language. A total of 95 upper secondary and university students read one of the mathematical texts and the historical text. Before reading the texts, a test of prior knowledge for both mathematics and history was given and after reading each text, a test of reading comprehension was given. The results reveal a similarity in reading comprehension between the mathematical text without symbols and the historical text, and also a difference in reading comprehension between the two mathematical texts. This result suggests that mathematics in itself is not the most dominant aspect affecting the reading comprehension process, but the use of symbols in the text is a more relevant factor. Although the university students had studied more mathematics courses than the upper secondary students, there was only a small and insignificant difference between these groups regarding reading comprehension of the mathematical text with symbols. This finding suggests that there is a need for more explicit teaching of reading comprehension for texts including symbols.

SUBMITTED: Friday, January 15, 2010POSTED: Friday, January 15, 2010
It seems like they are still up to their old tricks. This is nothing new. I was a customer of FCCC for several years and it destroyed my credit.
I made complaints to the florida attorney General's office, Better business Bureau to name a few. I made so many complaints that in 2006 they sent me a letter that they could nolonger manage my account and had transfered my account to anothercredit repair organization. It was the best thing that could have happened to me. However, I am still rebuilding my credit and I never got the 630 dollars of mine that they owed me.
I was a part of a class action lawsuit in 2006 (see Baker v. Family Credit Counseling Corp., No. 04-CV-5508). The result of the lawsuit was a joke and I wrote a very long objection to the settlement but to no avail. One of the things that I stated in my objection was that I believed that FCCC would be at it again and that they have had no real consequnces for their criminal behavior.
I wish you the best of luck.

Item Description...
"A wonderful book that gives us a fresh angle of vision on modern Roman Catholic teaching about sex, marriage, gender relationships, and reproduction. After reading Sexing the Church, few will doubt the extent to which Catholic teaching about the law of nature owes no small debt to history and culture." --Richard B. Miller, Poynter Center for the Study of Ethics and American Institutions
..".Catholic attitudes about women in the priesthood... display a] contradiction between egalitarian and subordinationist views.... Women are denied access to the 'eucharistic' priesthood because allowing them in would upset the redemptive order. Why is it, then, that imagery from the created order (women as mothers, brides, virgins) is often used to describe the redemptive 'mystery' that connects Christ with the Church? Why is the Church 'sexed' female?... This sexing of the Church is more than just an example of how gender and order work in Catholic morality; it also reveals tensions in the complex patterns of Catholic reasoning about marriage, reproduction, and church authority. In a surprising way, it challenges the order enforced by the Catholic ethics of marriage and reproduction." --from Chapter One
The regulation of human sexuality in contemporary Catholicism, a topic that monopolizes public conversation about the Catholic Church, is also a central concern of Catholic theological discussions of religious ethics. Aline H. Kalbian traces the history of the connection between moral theology and sexual ethics as it applies to the concern for order in official teachings on marriage, reproduction, and sex. She explores order as it is reflected in the theology of marriage, the 20th-century challenge to that order in the debates on contraception and assisted reproduction, and the way attitudes about gender in Catholicism connect theological and moral order with ecclesiastical order.

Closeable.close() says "If the stream is already closed then invoking this method has no effect.".
But a lot of our code does not really respect that. If i add an "extra" close() call in assertingcodec, it finds all kinds of bugs in codec code, for example:
[junit4] Tests with failures (first 10 out of 59): [junit4] - org.apache.lucene.index.TestCrashCausesCorruptIndex.testCrashCorruptsIndexing [junit4] - org.apache.lucene.codecs.asserting.TestAssertingPostingsFormat.testDocsOnly [junit4] - org.apache.lucene.codecs.asserting.TestAssertingPostingsFormat.testDocsAndFreqsAndPositionsAndOffsetsAndPayloads [junit4] - org.apache.lucene.codecs.asserting.TestAssertingPostingsFormat.testDocsAndFreqs [junit4] - org.apache.lucene.codecs.asserting.TestAssertingPostingsFormat.testDocsAndFreqsAndPositionsAndOffsets [junit4] - org.apache.lucene.codecs.asserting.TestAssertingPostingsFormat.testRandom [junit4] - org.apache.lucene.codecs.asserting.TestAssertingPostingsFormat.testDocsAndFreqsAndPositionsAndPayloads [junit4] - org.apache.lucene.codecs.asserting.TestAssertingPostingsFormat.testDocsAndFreqsAndPositions [junit4] - org.apache.lucene.index.TestDirectoryReader.testFilesOpenClose [junit4] - org.apache.lucene.index.TestIndexWriterDelete.testIndexingThenDeleting

Here is the simple change i added to asserting codec... these are all bugs. And we should think about other things we could test too.
Maybe BaseXXXTestCase can do it, to have better coverage across all codecs (and backwards ones). We should also think about BaseDirectoryTestCase for .store apis, and similar.
I added tests to BaseDirectoryTestCase.
Some .store code has bugs too, e.g.:
org.apache.lucene.store.AlreadyClosedException: this Directory is closed at org.apache.lucene.store.BaseDirectory.ensureOpen(BaseDirectory.java:50) at org.apache.lucene.store.RAMDirectory.listAll(RAMDirectory.java:106) at org.apache.lucene.store.NRTCachingDirectory.close(NRTCachingDirectory.java:203) at org.apache.lucene.store.BaseDirectoryTestCase.testDoubleCloseDirectory(BaseDirectoryTestCase.java:1050)
Here is current patch, with those tests passing. BlockTree, NRTCachingDir, MockDir, etc had bugs.
We need to add checks in e.g. BasePostingsFormatTestCase and all those kinds of tests too, because I know there are other term dictionaries with the same pattern blocktree has.
added asserts to BasePostingsFormatTestCase. Now lots of codecs are angry
I generalized the method to test all Closeables in BaseIndexFileFormatTestCase.... then fixed all the problems.
This is ready, i dont like some of the failures to be honest, because if you call close() again it will write extra data and create a corrupt file today.

Cradle of Coaches
Throughout the sports world, Miami has the unique reputation as the "Cradle of Coaches." Legendary football coaches such as Woody Hayes, Bo Schembechler, Ara Parseghian, Weeb Ewbank, Paul Brown and Sid Gillman all had roots at Miami, and the impact they left on the college football landscape can still be felt today.
At last count, more than 100 Miami graduates were active in coaching or administrative work in the professional and collegiate levels. More than 30 of the men and women in the collegiate ranks are presently head coaches. Over the past six decades, 20 collegiate and professional coaches with Miami roots have stood atop their respective professions as National Coaches of the Year.
Bob Kurz, a 1958 graduate of Miami and former Miami Sports Information Director, helped put the legacy in context with his book Miami of Ohio: The Cradle of Coaches, which lays out the program's proud coaching tradition from its humble beginnings through the 2002 season, when it was last revised. His inspiration for the biography came in 1959, when Miami graduates Paul Dietzel and Parseghian were coaching the No. 1 and No. 2 college programs in the land and Brown, Gillman and Ewbank were revolutionizing the professional game.
Prior to the 2004 season, Kurz and his wife, Marian, provided a gift to the University to construct a Cradle of Coaches Plaza beyond the South endzone of Yager Stadium. The beautifully architected plaza provides a grand entrance to the stadium and have been adorned with life-sized statues of some of the program's greatest coaching legends.
Miami has been the training ground for 21 National Coaches of the Year recipients at the professional and collegiate levels.
Cradle of Coaches Association
Cradle of Coaches Nomination Form
The Cradle of Coaches Association was established in 1971 to acknowledge the role Miamians have played in establishing Miami University as the Cradle of Coaches. While all Miami Alumni who go on to coach or those who have coached at Miami are considered a part of the Cradle of Coaches, the Cradle of Coaches Association began inducting individuals into the Association in 1992 to further recognize their accomplishments. In 1999 and 2000, Miami's Hall of Fame Committee further developed criteria for induction into the Cradle of Coaches to be more inclusive of all sports. The list of inductees thus far:

New Year's Eve is as good a time as any to contemplate one's soul purpose.
What is it I am meant to do in life? What is the purpose of my life? What does my soul want to do here? What am I here to accomplish? Why did I incarnate? What is my destiny?
In contemplating these things I give you two hints.
The first hint is: LOVING YOUR SOUL PURPOSE.
When you are doing what it is your SOUL wants to do, you will feel LOVE. So, what is it you love to do?
And I don't mean what is pleasurable? I'm not talking about "I love to eat chocolate" or "I love to unwind with my favorite mindless TV show" (although either is OK in moderation). Soul purpose is not about hedonism, selfishness or escapism. I don't mean what is it you love to do to relax and unwind?
By loving your soul purpose, what I mean is – what is it that makes you feel alive? What are you passionate about? What inspires you and excites you? What is it that you walk around thinking about as you go to your car in the parking lot? What is it you are thinking about when you are brushing your teeth or first thing when you wake up?
What is it that gets you in the zone? You know, the zone. That space beyond every day life where you feel like the whole universe is in alignment like some cosmic chiropractic adjustment just clicked and everything feels RIGHT.
What is it that when you are engaged in it, you are totally absorbed and hours go by in minutes? What gets you to stop thinking and start just being? What brings you fully present into the moment?
You see, when you are doing something that your soul wants to do, your soul is fully participating, fully engaged and present in your body and it feels blissful. It feels like love.
Sometimes it's obvious what your soul purpose is or what it is you love to do. But sometimes it's not so obvious.
And soul purpose is not about success or money. It's not always something that you can turn into a career or make a living – maybe it's the volunteer work you do or the hobby you have. Maybe it's the spontaneous help and support you give to your family and friends. And what's more, it can be a combination of these things – it's not always ONE thing.
And your soul purpose can be small and simple things. It's not always some big cause that you can easily turn into some Norma Rae moment of standing on top of factory equipment holding up a sign saying "This is my soul purpose!" It can be something tiny that only those closest to you notice but it makes all the difference in the world to them and to you.
So, as we go into New Year's Eve and into this New Year of 2015, you can meditate on what this might be for you. You can have a prayerful conversation between you and God and your soul. You can journal and free flow what is most important to you. You can make a list of what inspires you. Or if you are not verbally inclined you can collect images or pictures of what matters most to you.
And don't make it more complicated than it needs to be. It could very well be that you already know what your soul purpose is and if that is the case, just take some time to contemplate it and envision how your purpose will unfold in the coming year.
And now, before you go off and contemplate too much, it is time for the second hint.
The second hint is: LOVING, YOUR SOUL PURPOSE.
Yes. While the activities and tasks that you have just read about, the things that you love to do, are perhaps what your soul is guiding you to do at any one moment – the actual PURPOSE is not the activity. These are simply ways for your soul to express its purpose.
The actual purpose of any soul is LOVING. I guess that is a bit more than a hint.
Our purpose is to Love. I would pretty much venture to say that is everyone's soul purpose, really, if you really get down to it – to Love, to love God, to love our neighbor, to love ourselves, to love those around us, to love those in need, to love the Earth, to love.
As I have recently started writing again and I am sharing my inner spirit in words with the outer world, I have been feeling that this is, in part, my "purpose" – to write. And it is something I love to do and it is something that I feel alive when I am doing. When I am writing I can spend hours and it feels like minutes and when I leave I feel energized and inspired.
Yet, something that I have known in my heart for a while is that a soul purpose is bigger than just this life or this body. Writing is only an instrument for me to express my purpose. And there are other expressions of that purpose as well. Our soul purpose is much bigger than can be contained in any one task or activity.
So, even though I could say that writing is my purpose, I could just as easily say that my purpose is rubbing Peachy's belly. When she is laying on my chest with her four feet flailing up in the air and I am loving her more than I can contain and rubbing her soft little puppy belly – that is me expressing love in the purest form I know. So – that is my soul purpose.
If you looked at the whole thing energetically it's like we'd just be little radiating suns sending light beams of Love out to all of life around us. But we don't look quite so silly. We look like people with jobs and families and homes, so we express those light beams of Love in different ways – but essentially, that is what is going on. We are souls here loving.
Some people express Love in the form of inventing the light bulb or engineering a great bridge or composing a spectacular symphony. Some people express Love in the form of being a really great boss or a very caring grandparent.
You see – a Soul having a purpose can't be limited to what the circumstances of this particular life have turned out to be.
I am NOT a writer and you are NOT a singer. Suppose tomorrow my fingers fall off and your vocal cords dissolve and we can no longer write or sing. Would our soul purpose cease?
What if a person feels that their soul purpose is to be a surfer – to merge with the ocean and the wave. But then that person has a car accident or gets hit by a meteor and somehow they no longer have the physical ability to surf. That soul is still here and that soul still has a purpose. So, perhaps that soul was expressing Love in the form of surfing and merging with the ocean and the wave up until that point. Now that soul will find a different way of expressing. Perhaps that person will find that feeling of being One with the ocean and the wave inside themselves beyond the surfboard and then express their love for life around them by teaching about the Oneness that is inside all of us, regardless of our outer physicality.
If I attach so much importance to writing that I think it is WHO I am and it is what my soul is here to do, then what happens to me if my fingers fall off (and I lived in a world where voice recognition software didn't exist)? And the last 16 years of my life that I spent NOT writing (or NOT petting Peachy's belly) were not some wasteland of meaninglessness and despair because I had not found my soul purpose yet. I was expressing my purpose of loving in different ways.
In deed, we express our purpose of loving all along the way from the time we are infants until we are old and wrinkled. We express our purpose of loving in small ways all the time – so in a sense we don't need to worry so much about FINDING our soul purpose or we will waste our lives in some kind of rat race. All the moments of love IN the rat race ARE our soul purpose, too. You HAVE been living your soul purpose all along in lots of weird and wonderful ways. Your soul is smart. It's not going to waste time. It will express love in small and big ways no matter what.
Yes, it is good to find the things that you love to do, that you are passionate about and that make you feel fully alive. It is good to listen to your soul and follow what it is your soul is guiding you towards, to find the activities that your soul is most aligned with at this point in time. Doing that will help you to express your soul purpose in the fullest. Doing that will help you expand your purpose of Loving, it will help the Love to fill you on the deepest level and for you to express your love in the most important way you can.
However – life circumstances, opportunities and abilities change. And to truly find one's soul purpose, one has to focus on the Soul – that which does not change, that which is eternal and permanent:
LOVING, your soul purpose.

The Battle
"I'll tear those fools to shreds!" Streak snarls.
"No, don't," I say. "We'll just KO them like in a friendly battle."
"But those guys want to kill us," says Gash.
"We're not killing those Pokémon," I order.
"Talking to ur Pokémon?" sniggers the Rocket Grunt. "This'll teach ya to shut up. Mightyena, Bite! Take a chunk out of that Jolteon!"
The Mightyena growls and leaps at Gash, intending to use Bite on him, but Gash deftly dodges. "Counter with Double-Kick!" I yell.
Gash stands on his front legs and kicks twice with his back legs, both landing a critical hit on the Mightyena. The black wolf is KO'd already from the two super-effective critical hits.
"Stupid dog!" snarls the Rocket, returning the Mightyena to it's Poké Ball.
"Now, team-up!" I order. "Attack Gliscor! Streak, Aqua Jet! Gash, Quick Attack!"
The Pokémon dash at the Gliscor with a superfast combo, the combined water attack KO'ing the flyscorpion outright. The Rocket grunt is outraged that we beat his Pokemon so quickly and easily. He returns Gliscor to its Poké Ball.
"You stupid runt!" he snarls. "You're still coming with us though!"
He runs right at me, but suddenly finds his arms joined by a huge chunk of ice. Streak had used Ice Beam on him.
The Rocket screams and runs out of the broken doorway to his truck.

Combine all dairy into a saucepan along with the sugar. Split and scrape the vanilla beans into the dairy and sugar mixture. Bring to 170 degrees F. to dissolve sugar then let cool at room temperature. Chill in the refrigerator overnight. While dairy is heating, grate nutmeg into pumpkin and add the other spices. Mix in a bowl to combine and chill overnight in the refrigerator. The next day, take pumpkin and dairy mixture out. Filter dairy mixture to remove large vanilla bean pieces. Add some of the dairy mixture to the pumpkin and mix well to loosen it up. Then mix both the dairy and pumpkin together. Freeze in your ice cream freezer according to the manufacturer's instructions. Let the ice cream harden for at least two hours unless serving all immediately.

The courses share similar aims; for example:
- to help teachers develop their view of the nature of design and technology in the world;
- to help teachers develop their personal rationale for including design and technology in their children's learning experiences;
-to give teachers personal practical experience of a technological design task; and to allow them to reflect on their own children's experience of such activities;
- to provide teachers with the basis for developing learning experiences in design and technology with their own children; through reflecting on their own classroom practice and the work of others.
Although both courses could be studied by a teacher in isolation; in practice the materials are used in schools in conjunction with teacher colleagues. For example; E626 is a so called 'designated course'. Groups of primary teachers are funded to study the open learning material as part of a longer course offered by a Local Education Authority (LEA) which includes face-to-face and handson sessions. The University appoints the LEA tutor and is responsible for overall quality assurance procedures. In this way the benefits of supported self-study can be merged with the need for communal practical work in a mode of teacher education that ensures the school is the locus for action; reflection and assessment.

She initially plays hard to get, but Izy-Bella soon agrees to comes home with stud Tony Rubino, who can't stop staring at her whale tail panties poking out of her little booty shorts. Soon the babe is wearing nothing but those miniscule panties as she gets down on her knees and starts sucking on Tony's prick.

Our customer reviews for ibis Toulouse Blagnac Aéroport
Reviews collected from customers who booked on AccorHotels.com
A perfect place to stay before an early flight from Toulouse. Our only problem was finding it using GPS - loads of diversions due to road works. Once there we found excellent service and a nice meal in the restaurant. Breakfast was offered from 4 am, but we declined as we were leaving at 4.15! Would definitely use this hotel again
Near to Toulouse's airport, convenient for an early morning flight. Comfy rooms and enough space not to be tripping over a lot of luggage. Reliable shuttle to the airport in the early hours of the a.m. I fell the night of our arrival (not at the hotel) and the wait staff produced a huge ice bucket for me to use to soothe my hand and wrist without so much as a double take. Very helpful and supportive.
After an 800 mile drive, the room was comfortable and we all slept very well, but, the rooms were not what we had booked. We booked a 2 rooms with a double and a single, but, we were allocated 2 rooms, one a double and one a twin. The twin room was fine, but, if we hadn't made an issue out of it, the double would have been a bit uncomfortable for the two people who were staying in there. In the end, they gave us 2 twin rooms, but, we were tired and this shouldn't have been an issue. Also, it would have been nice to have been told that the entire support crew for the tour de France were stopping there. Car park was packed with lorries and police bikes. Had to park quite a long way away, in a side street

FBS: trade recommendations on EUR / USD
Tatiana Norkina, an analyst at FBS
Currency pair trade began with the collapse of an important level of 1.2440 after which the bulls are trying to restore lost positions. The market has rebounded to around 1.2490 till now.
Ichimoku. The resistance is formed by Tenkan-sen line in the hourly chart. The rebound could happen any moment to continue the downtrend. However, at level breakout there's a retest Kijun-sen in the 1.2520 / 30 possible.
Four-hour picture looks more dramatic, as there Chinkou Span is oversold. There's a high probability of further consolidation in the range of 1.2440-1.2530 in the nearest future.

Pet Shop of Horrors is a Japanese horror manga created by Matsuri Akino. The series focuses on the eccentric Count D, proprietor of a mysterious pet shop located in the heart of Chinatown, and the numerous patrons who visit his shop.
Count D is the mysterious caretaker of a pet shop in Los Angeles' Chinatown. Each of D's rare pets, which all have strangely humanoid appearances, comes with a contract with three major points. These points differ for each animal sold (although each animal's contract includes not showing it to anyone), and breaking this contract (something the buyer almost always does) usually results in dire consequences for the buyer, for which the pet shop claims no liability.

Last Memories
Still I do not regret taking it from Dana. Dear Dana. Will she be angry?
Oh no. It is speeding up.
'Fifteen seconds' Was that God?
Fifteen seconds?
Okay, okay...
Now ten.
Last moments.
I am eating dinner with my family, we are joking and slightly drunk. My uncle drops his slice of beef in his wine glass.
I am singing with my friends, despite the fact I cannot sing and everyone's eyes are bright and we are smiling.
Heidi and Miss Davis fill my hugging arms. We are laughing.
I smile.
This is what I have been waiting for.

Originally posted on Dodgers Rumors | Last updated 4/6/13
With Chad Billingsly slated to come off the disabled list on Wednesday, the Dodgers traded veteran pitcher Aaron Harang to the Colorado Rockies for equally veteran but not as prosperous catcher Ramon Hernandez. The move sends Harang, who has not pitched this year, to the Rockies with $7 million dollars, while no reports of gaining payroll from the $2.3 million owed to Hernandez. This move likely puts youngin' Tim Federowicz out and back down to AAA. Ramon figures to be the backup to A.J. Ellis, hasn't seen a productive year behind the plate since 2006 where he hit belted a career high 95 RBI's and 23 home runs. This is an interesting as the league is starved for pitching, I feel like they could have gotten a bit more for Harang. Hernandez was optioned by the Rockies, so if he can't cut it as a 2nd string over there, how is that going to look here? All they can hope for is a veteran catcher helping A.J Ellis into another productive season. On the plus side, Chad Billingsly will made a bigger splash than Harang multiplied by Hernandez, so I guess it will work out. The next question is what to do with Chris Capuano?

Note: I kinda got the idea from the story written by Daddy's Little Cannibal and Bronzehairedgirl620, "Happy New Year", so this is not all my original thinking. I wrote this pretty much for Daddy's Little Cannibal because I feel like I'm the only fan who hasn't written one for her, and she rocks my socks, so here you go, Cannibal!
New Years Eve
It was edging on 9:00pm. Here I was, sitting home alone on New Year's Eve. Even Charlie had plans with Billy tonight. He offered to bring me along, but I really wasn't in the mood for going to La Push. All I really wanted to do was sit around in my scruffy little PJ's watching TV, with a spoon in one hand and a pint of Ben & Jerry's in the other. All my other friends had plans with their boyfriends or whatever, but I was perfectly content, here, alone, with my lovebirds, Ben & Jerry. Yup, I was just peachy.
Okay, maybe I was lying to myself. What I really wanted was to be out with everyone else, having a great time with my boyfriend (as if he existed), just partying all night without a care in the world. But I guess that was impossible. I didn't have a boyfriend, and even though I got plenty of offers from people to hang out tonight, I would just feel like a third wheel. It sucks being single. But I've dealt with it for 17 years, so I could make it through one more.
I thought of last year's New Year's with Renee and Phil in Phoenix. There wasn't any snow on the ground there, but we made it festive by putting up the chili pepper lights Phil found in the garage (I thought they were corny, but it got the job done), and watching the fireworks at midnight. Despite just being with my mom and Phil that night, it was actually pretty fun. Much more fun then I was having now. I sighed. Reminiscing about past years wasn't helping my situation. My depressing, miserable, and lonely situation. When I heard my spoon scrape the bottom of the container, I got up from the couch and shuffled into the kitchen to throw away the little remains of the ice cream in the container and wash my spoon.
The running water drowned out the random sounds coming from the television in the living room, which I hadn't really been watching anyway. All that was really on were overrun Christmas classics that made me nauseous. After cleaning up the kitchen, I wandered back into the living room and turned off the TV. The sudden silence just depressed me even more. I bent back down to the controls and turned it back on again. At least I would have some background noise to make me feel less alone. I sank back down on the couch, right onto the warm spot on the cushion where my butt had made an imprint from sitting there for so long. I laid my head back and closed my eyes. I had to think of something to do to keep me occupied. I couldn't do laundry, I had done it all yesterday; I couldn't do any homework, we weren't given any over the holidays; Charlie wasn't here, so I had no one to cook for… my boredom was the sad product of a slow to almost nonexistent social life.
I was about to give up and just go to bed when I heard my cell ring from upstairs. I dashed up the steps and into my room and caught it right before it went to the automated machine.
"Hello?" I asked, panting slightly.
"Hi, Bella? It's Edward."
Edward Cullen was one of my good friends from ever since we were kids. Even though I had lived in Phoenix, I met Edward and his family when I came to visit Charlie over the summer. Edward had been so happy to hear that I was moving back here to give Renee and Phil some space.
"Edward, Hi! What's up?" I paused. "Uhm, whats with all the background noise? It sounds like… is that wind? Where are you?"
"Yeah, about that… I'm kinda outside your bedroom Bells, freezing my ass off. Can you open the window?"
"You're where? Jeyesus, hang on!"
I dropped the phone on my bed and leaped for the window. I yanked the shade up, and there he was; Edward Cullen, perched on the tree branch outside my window, holding his little silver cell phone to his ear, teeth chattering and looking eager to reach the warmth of my bedroom.
I threw open the window and the wind and snow was like a smack in the face. I stepped aside and Edward jumped agilely through the frame and landed on the carpet, his boots depositing remnants of snow onto the floor. He snapped his phone shut while I quickly slammed the window back into place and locked it. My tiny little room filled with warmth again, and I strode over to the corner where I kept my space heater in the winter. I flicked on the switch and watched the little red numbers get higher as the temperature in the room rose. I turned around to look at Edward, who was taking off his scarf and hat and setting them on my dresser.
"Edward? W-what are you doing here?"
"I wanted to see you. I figured you wouldn't be out on New Year's Eve, so I came here."
"Right… but, why did you use the window? Why didn't you just ring the doorbell?"
"Well, it's almost 10:00, and I wasn't sure if Charlie was home… he's not my biggest fan…"
He was right; Charlie wasn't as fond of Edward as I was. He always said his pale skin and his oddly perfect family gave him the creeps, even though the Cullen family had never been a problem in Forks. It was strange for a family of 5 teenagers to be so incredibly well behaved, but they just were. I didn't have a problem with them, but that might be just because I focused on Edward most of the time. A lot of the time. Almost all the time. It was getting pretty hard to deny that I had a tiny crush on him. His bronze hair was always so perfectly styled, out of his face but untidy and wild, and his perfect, muscular figure… It was hard not to fall for this guy. I usually wasn't one to notice boys, but ever since Edward had started maturing, I had become a bit interested. Not that I was the only one. My competition was only… oh, the entire female population of Forks High School. Even though I was his best friend, I hardly had a chance. But now was not the time to fantasize. I tried to get my mind back on track.
"Well it's great to see you, Edward! And Charlie is out with Billy tonight, so I'm here by myself. Here, why don't you come in and get yourself warmed up?"
"Thanks Bella. Geez, its freezing out there!"
"Yeah, I noticed. Come on, I'll make some coffee or something."
We both wandered downstairs into the kitchen and I put on a pot of coffee. We drank and laughed about the stupidness of this holiday for what seemed like eons. It was so easy to just forget about everything else when I'm with Edward.
"Hey," he announced after a while. "I think it's almost midnight. Wanna go watch the fireworks?"
I nodded. We had a pretty decent view of where they were going to go off from my back porch. By then the wind had slowed down and snow had stopped, leaving it relatively warmer than it was a few hours ago. I slid on a coat and followed Edward outside. We stared up at the sky, waiting for the fireworks to start. Edward slowly slipped behind me and put his arms around my waist, his low, husky whisper in my ear,
"10… 9… 8… 7…"
I was startled. Edward didn't usually do stuff like this. This was oddly intimate for our mere friendship.
"6… 5… 4…"
My breathing sped up. "Edward…?" I squeaked.
"3… 2… 1…"
The fireworks erupted, and Edward grabbed my shoulders and spun me around to face him. I could see the ferociousness in his green eyes before he pressed his lips against mine, rendering all my other senses completely useless. I closed my eyes and leaned into the kiss, positive this was a dream, but still blissfully happy. A moment later and all too soon, Edward broke away, gazing into my surprised eyes.
"I- I've wanted to do that for a while," he admitted.
I couldn't speak. My hanging-open-jaw simply wouldn't move. Instead, I flung my arms around his neck and kissed him again, just completely bewildered that this was actually happening to me and ecstatically happy that it was. Slightly startled by my reaction, but glad of my receptiveness anyway, Edward grinned and picked me up and spun me around like they do in those old movies where the husband comes back from battle and the wife rushes up and kisses him while he spins her around in a circle. He let me go and I relinquished hold of his lips as my feet touched the ground. I gazed up at him, and his eyes bored into mine, filled with shock, wonder, and what I guessed was pure happiness. He grinned down at me.
"Bella…" he started. "Well, if I had known you'd be so receptive…" he laughed. "Well, I guess I would've done that a lot sooner."
My smile was a mile wide. "Happy New Years, Edward."
"Happy New Years, Bella."
I guess New Years Eve wasn't as stupid a holiday as I thought.
The End
Happy New Years Everyone!!

text:
The film concerns a father's admiration for his son on one side and a son's sympathy to the mother. All four characters are connected in which three are Upendra and one is Catherine. Shiva is the 'God Father', who caters to his son's every need; however, he is confined to a wheelchair. He is well respected in the city. The hiccup is to his son Vijay (Upendra) from Ajay (Upendra). One is growing up with a 'God Father' and the other one is being raised by a 'Mad Mother'. For the situation of his mother Ajay wants to take revenge on his father, so he troubles Vijay in his marriage.
When the situation devolves to the extent of killing 'God Father' ('Shiva'), he gets up from his wheelchair to open his third eye. This Shiva flashback is the biggest draw of the film. One of the rarest characters, Shiva behaves like a female character, but he is an excellent dancer. In the village he is considered impotent and a eunuch. Sujatha, looking at a dance video of Shiva, agrees to marriage and travels straight to the marriage hall. The height of insult that Shiva faces makes him gutsy. He rapes Sujatha in her room. The result is the birth of twins, Vijay and Ajay.
In the climax Ajay falls sick and wants to kill his father Shiva and interrupts the marriage ceremony where he is told the truth. The 'God Father' is gunned down at this place

They are pinning their hopes on the 'Champagne and Cheshire Cheese' solution to the decision by Interbrew to close the 226-year-old brewery and move it to Wales.
The EU has the power to give the brand geographical protection. For example, this type of protection means that only champagne produced in Champagne in France is entitled to use the name and Cheshire cheese can only be made in Cheshire.
The Transport & General Workers' Union hopes that by describing Boddingtons as 'The Cream of Manchester' - the line in a series of commercials - it will clearly link the brand to the city to make the transfer of brewing impossible.
Franny Joyce, the union's regional industrial organiser, said a campaign supporter who specialises in intellectual property rights had suggested the idea. Previously it was thought only the brand owners could apply, but the workers have been advised otherwise.
Joyce added: 'I dare the company to deny they have a link with 200 years of brewing heritage in this city.'Reuse content

Preventing Network and DNS Traffic Leaks
A traffic "leak" is when network traffic that should only ever travel over a VPN connection instead travels over the normal network connection, thereby potentially exposing the contents of the traffic to others. This could also potentially expose your true IP address to services you are connecting to. For the vast majority of VPN users network and DNS leaks are not a concern. This article has been written for users who connect to VPN Service Providers, with all traffic directed over the VPN connection, who are concerned about the possibility of a leak occurring.
We are currently working on adding a feature to Viscosity to easily block traffic leaks from occurring. We hope to have such a feature available in a future version of Viscosity, however please be aware that this is not something that will be available soon. In the meantime this article details how you can manually setup Viscosity to prevent traffic leaks from occurring.
Traffic Leak Introduction
Most VPN Service Providers configure their VPN setup to direct all network traffic over a VPN connection while it is active. However in some situations, or for poorly configured setups, network traffic can potentially travel over the normal network connection, even if the VPN connection is active. Traffic leaks typically fall into two categories depending on how you deal with them: network leaks and DNS leaks.
A network leak can occur due to a poorly configured VPN setup (where not all traffic is routed correctly through the VPN connection), or during periods where the VPN connection is not active (for example a dropout has occurred and the VPN connection is in the process of reconnecting). To prevent network leaks it is necessary to ensure that all traffic is correctly flowing through the VPN connection when it is active, and to block network traffic from using the normal network connection when it is not active.
A DNS leak occurs when DNS requests are made to a DNS server on the local network (instead of to a DNS server over the VPN connection) potentially exposing what sites or servers your computer is accessing. This is easily avoided by overriding your local DNS servers with DNS servers that are accessed through the VPN connection.
Checking All Traffic Is Routed Over The VPN Connection
The first step to ensuring that there are no network leaks is checking that all traffic is being directed through your VPN connection while it is connected. This can be done by examining the routing on your computer while connected:
Mac OS X
- Connect your VPN connection using Viscosity.
- Open the Terminal application. This can be easily done by entering "Terminal" into the Spotlight search field. It can also be found at "/Applications/Utilities/Terminal.app".
- Enter the command "route get 0/1" and press Enter. Make a note of the "interface" entry.
- Enter the command "route get 128.0/1" and press Enter. Make a note of the "interface" entry.
- If both of the interfaces returned above start with "tun" or "tap", all traffic is flowing through the VPN connection by default.
- Connect your VPN connection using Viscosity.
- Open command prompt. This can be done by pressing Windows + R, type 'cmd' into the new dialog and click OK, or go to Start, type 'cmd' into search and open Command Prompt.
- Enter the command "tracert 220.127.116.11" and press Enter. Let the first hop complete, and take note of the IP Address that appears on the right. You can press ctrl+c to cancel the tracert once the first hop is complete.
- Open the Viscosity Details window and select the active connection. If the Client IP that appears in the details window matches, or the first three octets (first three dot parts) of the IP match, all traffic is flowing through the VPN connection by default.
- If not, type 'route print' into command prompt and locate the IPv4 Route table. If you can locate the IP address returned by tracert under Network Destination, and the Interface value is the same as the Client IP displayed by Viscosity, all traffic is flowing through the VPN connection by default.
If you find that all network traffic isn't routed through the VPN connection you can change this behaviour like so:
- From the Viscosity menu select Preferences to open Viscosity's Preferences window.
- Select your connection from the Connections list and click the Edit button.
- Click on the Networking tab. Tick the "Send all traffic over VPN connection" checkbox.
- Click the Save button.
Preventing Network Leaks When A Drop-out/Disconnect Occurs
If a VPN connection drops, your computer may use your normal network connection until the VPN connection is re-established. In most cases this is desired behaviour, however to prevent network leaks it is recommended that all traffic is blocked when a drop-out or disconnect occurs. This can be achieved via routing or scripting. For either of these techniques to work correctly, please ensure the "Reset network interfaces on disconnect" option is disabled under Preferences -> Advanced.
Routing Technique
Please note this method does NOT work on Windows Vista and higher, and only works on some setups on Windows XP. Please test any method you implement.
The routing technique is the easiest to implement, and takes affect instantly when a drop-out occurs. However restoring your network connection afterwards can sometimes be a bit fiddly. This technique involves overriding your computer's default route so when the VPN connection disconnects it tears down the default route, leaving you with no network connectivity and no possibility of network leaks. You can implement this like so:
- From the Viscosity menu select Preferences to open Viscosity's Preferences window.
- Select your connection from the Connections list and click the Edit button.
- Click on the Networking tab. In the Routing area click on the small "+" button to add a new route.
- Enter "0.0.0.0" into the "Destination" field and "0.0.0.0" into the "Mask/Bits" field. If you are routing just single IP addresses the Mask field can be left blank.
- Select "VPN Gateway" from the Gateway menu.
- Click the Add button to add the route.
- Click on the Advanced tab. On a new line in the advanced commands area enter "remap-usr1 SIGTERM" (without quotes).
- Click the Save button.
When your VPN connection disconnects (as a drop-out or manually) all network traffic on your computer should now become disabled. To regain network access you'll need to disable and re-enable your network connection. For a Wi-Fi connection you can do this by turning it Off and On again from the Airport menu on Mac, or Disconnecting and Connecting again from the Wi-Fi menu on Windows. For a Ethernet (wired) connection you can either pull out and replug in your network cable, or make it Inactive and Active again in the Network section of System Preferences on Mac, or Disable then Enable the adapter on Windows. Alternatively this process could be automated with a Before Connect Script on Mac or Windows.
Scripting Technique
Viscosity supports running custom scripts before a VPN connection connects, when it becomes connected, and when it disconnects. This can offer a more seamless solution than the routing technique above, however it requires advanced network knowledge. Documentation for writing scripts and using Viscosity's scripting support can be found in the Running AppleScripts When Connected/Disconnected article for Mac and the Running Batch/VBS Scripts when Connected/Disconnected article for Windows.
The following is a simple example of a Disconnected script for Mac OS X. It will disable the network interface named "Ethernet" when a dropout or disconnect occurs. "Ethernet" should be replaced with the name of your normal network interface (typically "Wi-Fi" for a wireless interface and "Ethernet" for the wired interface).
do shell script "networksetup -setnetworkserviceenabled 'Ethernet' off" user name "username" password "password" with administrator privileges
The following is a simple example of a Disconnected script for Windows. "Ethernet" should be replaced with the name of your normal network interface (typically "WiFi" for a wireless interface or "Ethernet" for a wired interface). When using advanced commands like netsh in Windows, Viscosity must be run as Administrator for this command to work, or you will need to acquire a third party tool like RunAs or psexec to place the username and password to run a command as in line.
netsh interface set interface "Ethernet" admin=DISABLED
To ensure the Disconnected script runs when a VPN drop-out occurs it is necessary to do the following:
- From the Viscosity menu select Preferences to open Viscosity's Preferences window.
- Select your connection from the Connections list and click the Edit button.
- Click on the Advanced tab. On a new line in the advanced commands area enter "remap-usr1 SIGTERM" (without quotes).
- Click the Save button.
A number of users have also contributed scripts for preventing leaks to the forum, including some that make advanced use of the Mac OS X firewall.
Preventing IPv6 Network Leaks
Many modern Internet Service Providers are beginning to offer both IPv4 (IP version 4) and IPv6 (IP version 6) connectivity on their networks. However if your VPN connection is not configured to take this into account it's possible to leak IPv6 traffic.
Most users are familiar with IPv4 addresses, which are represented as a series of numbers in the format x.x.x.x. IPv4 has long been the default IP version for the Internet and local networks. However the number of available unique IPv4 addresses is limited and has almost run out. IPv6 is designed to solve this problem by offering many more unique addresses. Hence Internet Service Providers are beginning to enable IPv6 on their networks as an eventual replacement for IPv4. An IPv6 address consists of a series of letters and numbers separated by colons, for example 2001:db8:85a3::8a2e:370:7334.
However many VPN Providers have been slow to adopt IPv6 support through their VPN networks. This means that if your ISP provides IPv6, however your VPN connection only supports IPv4 traffic, IPv6 traffic will still go over your normal network connection.
VPN Providers can easily solve this problem, while also preparing for the future, by enabling support for IPv6 traffic through their networks. However if your VPN Provider only supports IPv4 it is possible to block IPv6 traffic while connected to the VPN using the instructions below (which prevents any IPv6 network leaks while the VPN is connected):
- Open Viscosity's Preferences window, select your connection from the Connections list, and click the Edit button.
- Click on the Networking tab.
- Click the small "+" button in the Routing section.
- Enter a Destination of "2000::" (without quotes), and a Mask of "4" (without quotes).
- Set the IP Version to "IPv6".
- Set the Gateway to "Custom" and enter an address of "::1" (without quotes).
- Click the Add button.
- Repeat steps 3 to 7 with a Destination of "3000::" and a Mask of "4".
- Repeat steps 3 to 7 with a Destination of "fc00::" and a Mask of "7".
- Click the Save button.
If you are unsure if your normal network connection supports IPv6 you can use an IPv6 test connectivity test such as Test IPv6.
Preventing DNS Leaks
DNS leaks can be preventing by ensuring that Viscosity's DNS support is enabled for your connection, and that a DNS server has been set. For information on how to check that it is enabled and specify DNS servers please see the Configuring DNS and WINS settings article.
Are There Any Third Party Tools For This?
Most firewall software will allow rules to be put in place to block traffic from leaking. Any such rules should block all traffic on the standard network interface with the exception of traffic for the VPN connection itself.
