Commerce and Insurance Commissioner Julie Mix McPeak will be conducting outreach meetings across the state to gather input from Tennesseans about the health conditions that should be covered under essential health benefit categories.
These public meetings are being held to gather public opinion on the determination of an essential health benefits package for health insurance coverage under the federal Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act or PPACA.
All interested parties are invited to indicate which of 10 potential benchmark plans designated by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services should be selected by the state as a benchmark or reference plan. Interested parties may also indicate how any of the plans might be modified, either to ensure the benchmark covers each of the 10 PPACA-required benefit categories, or for other reasons.
After considering the public input provided at the meetings and through written comments, Commissioner McPeak will recommend an essential health benefits benchmark to Tennessee Governor Bill Haslam. Within 30 days of an approval by the Governor, the Insurance Commissioner will enact an administrative rule, based on his recommendation, that will designate the benchmark plan and the essential health benefit package to be included in individual and small-employer group health insurance plans offered on or after January 1, 2014.

Here are tips on how to identify, eliminate, and control cucumber beetles.
What are Cucumber Beetles?
If you find that the stems of your seedlings are being eaten off, leaves are yellowing and wilting, and holes are appearing, you may have a striped cucumber beetle.
Cucumber beetles are found throughout the US and cause much of the same damage as flea beetles do. They are attracted to Cucurbit vegetables, namely cucumbers, squash, pumpkins, and beans.
Often, the beetles leave their hibernating sites early in the season, and feed on seedlings right as they are emerging, often killing them. The larvae feeds on the roots of the host plants. Adults will also feed on the leaves, vines, and fruit of plants that survive, often making deep marks in the rind.
They hold another threat too: the can carry bacterial diseases and viruses from plant to plant, such as bacterial wilt and mosaic virus.
How to Identify Cucumber Beetles
Adults are about ¼ inch long and have a yellow and black striped abdomen and a dark colored head and antennae. Look for holes and yellowing and wilting leaves. Crop yield will be low; and plants will produce yellow and stunted fruits. The larvae are worm-like, white, dark-headed, and have three pairs of legs on the thorax.
Often, the cucumber beetles alone will not kill the plants or cause major damage, but the spread of disease will. Adult cucumber beetles overwinter in weeds, garden debris and woody areas. The diseases they carry can also overwinter internally, and can be passed onto plants the next spring through fecal matter.
How to Control Cucumber Beetles
- Inspect newly planted cucurbit plants for the presence of this beetle; be watchful when plants are seedlings.
- Cover seedlings with row covers, though you rmust remove during blossoming time several hours each day to allow pollination.
- If you till your garden in the late fall, you will expose cucumber beetles hiding there to harsh winter conditions and reduce their populations next year. Tilling has the added benefit of making the soil easier to work in the spring.
- Where cucumber beetles are a problem, let the beetles come out of hiding and plant late. They have a knack for finding vulnerable seedlings. When yours are up and growing, the cucumber beetles will be gone, fooled into thinking you don't have any cucumbers in your garden.
- Few insecticides can be used on cucurbit plants because they are very sensitive. They would need to be used when plants are beginning to emerge through the soil. Please contact your local cooperative extension for a list of approved insecticides for your area.
- Natural predactors include soldier beetles, braconid wasps, some nematodes, and soldier beetles.
Once bacterial disease has entered the plant, there's very little that you can do. If it's bacterial wilt, you'll see the leaves dry up and the plant will quickly wilt and die. Take prevention for next year as described above.

BLOOMINGTON — The parents of an Indiana University student missing for more than a year hope that some suggestions for improved campus safety become reality.
The parents of Lauren Spierer attended freshman honors classes Thursday discussing ideas for The Lauren Project aimed at increasing awareness of potential dangers that students face. The 20-year-old Spierer from Greenburgh, N.Y., was last seen in June 2011 after a night of partying with friends in downtown Bloomington.
The Herald-Times reports suggestions from the classes included a revamped night shuttle service and a campaign encouraging all students to have a friend with them whenever out at night.
Charlene Spierer tells WTHR-TV that she wants to see something positive result from the tragedy of her daughter's disappearance.

You probably know that cutting calories and increasing your exercise are the keys to weight loss. You can actually count the calories you eat every day Reducing the fat in your diet is one way to reduce your calorie intake. as long as you don't replace the fat calories with additional calories from carbohydrate or protein.
By adopting a dozen or so of the following eating habits, most people can continue to enjoy the foods they like and still lose pounds. Don't forget to include daily exercise in the plan. The U.S. Department of Agriculture's dietary guidelines for Americans recommend getting at least 30 minutes of exercise most days of the week. To lose weight, you may need to increase that to 60 minutes a day.
Try these ideas for a lower-fat breakfast:
Add skim milk instead of whole or 2 percent milk to your cereal bowl.
Have an English muffin or a piece of whole-wheat bread instead of a muffin, croissant, doughnut or pastry.
Top French toast, waffles or pancakes with fresh fruit and a little syrup instead of butter.
Instead of regular bacon, serve Canadian bacon.
For the midday meal, try making these changes:
Make a tuna sandwich with tuna packed in water instead of oil.
Add lots of vegetables to your sandwich and skip the cheese.
Spread your bread with mustard instead of mayonnaise.
Lighten up a BLT by substituting a slice of ham or turkey breast for the bacon.
Grab a bag of baked potato or corn chips instead of regular ones.
When you need a snack, sample these suggestions:
Dip baked chips in hummus or bean spread instead of sour cream or cheese dips.
Have salsa instead of guacamole.
Order a skinny latte topped with chocolate shavings instead of a chocolate shake.
Choose ginger snaps or fig cookies instead of chocolate chip cookies.
At the end of the day, here's how to keep on cutting calories:
Prepare steamed instead of fried vegetables.
Measure the oil you cook with instead of pouring it from the bottle. You'll use less.
Learn to grill chicken, fish and red meat instead of pan-frying or breading and frying.
Double the vegetables and use half the meat called for in stews and casseroles.
Use vegetable-oil sprays instead of butter and liquid oils.

Hey Skrommel, just played around with Ghoster a bit.
While it migth be classified as a "toy", I find it very appealing - it could be pretty useful when one needs to code for a while, keeping you from being distracted too much by things in the background.
However, there's a little bug - after I exited Ghoster, at least two of my windows still had "always on top" enabled - one was mIRC which was easy to fix, the other was firefox which I'll probably have to close down and re-start after posting this message.
Also, when selecting tabs (probably also MDI windows), the active window flashes as if it was being ghosted and then re-enabled. I think the on-top stickyness might be related to this, since both mIRC and FireFox are tabbed, and I switched tabs in both apps while running Ghoster.

Comments On Mar 29, 2013:This Maxima Synblend4 50/50 synthetic blend oil is a great value. It provides excellent wear protection and shear resistance in engine/transmission cases that share oil. I was using Valvoline ATV 4-stroke petroleum oil which was cheaper and seemed to work fine but I recently bought a high-performance dirt bike and I like the added protection that this oil provides and I can go a few more rides between changes compared to the straight dino oil. It's a good price for a great product.

I really liked the way this stand looks to try to make a reasonably priced TV like my new Panasonic Plasma 50" 3D have the slick European look. It is really huge, larger and heavier than I expected but I feel like it could hold up a tank! I installed it myself (I am a surgeon) and found it straightforward, but not so easy a caveman could do it. Took me about 2 hours, a gillion little parts, and unfortunately, even though 95% of the stand is built like a rock, the covers for the top of the column and for the screw covers where you attach the glass shelves are made of cheap plastic and the top cover as well as one of the shelf/screw covers broke and I glued them back together. 3 out of 3 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Pricey but nice Written By chuck, Milton, FL on Tuesday, August 11, 2009 It's a really nice and beautiful stand. I had to buy longer screws to mount my KDL-40XBR7 to the mount. I had the same problem with my first Sanus wall mount. Sanus could probably save a lot of money on bolts if they put the right lengths in the box. This stand is quite sturdy and stable. It fits nicely in my master bedroom and adds some nice decor to the room. 2 out of 2 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Sanus PFFP2B Written By Wesley, Kansas City, Mo on Tuesday, January 22, 2008 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Very good stand and easy to assemble. Good alternative to hanging your flat screen from a wall. 12 out of 12 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Happy with Stand Written By TeresaF, L.A., California on Sunday, November 18, 2007 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Okay -- we felt a little daunted with the # of 'little' parts (realizing later that many of these parts were offered to accomodate each individual's tv) so we didn't find it AS easy as others who have rated this stand here. My husband didn't really appreciate my sharing the 'so easy a caveman could do it' comment someone had written - lol. I agree though that the back should be wider (even one inch would help) to run cables through. I got frustrated trying to run multiple items (DVD, DVR, & a gaming system) and we had to get a little creative (hello blue tape). Overall though we are happy with the quality and appearance of the stand - it is very solid. 16 out of 16 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Really NIce Written By EL MACHINO, San Francisco, CA on Wednesday, June 13, 2007 I bought this unit because I wasn't confident that the old walls of my apartment would hold my new LCD. I like this unit and everyone that has seen it wants one! The base is bigger than waht I had originally thought but it looks sweet! I think Sanus should include and third shelf...Assembly was easy and it didnt take long to put it together; the instructions are clear and easy to understand. The tower where all the wiring is suposed to hide is not as good as it could be (too small) but it does the job. Solid construction, but the finishing on the tower and the plastic parts could be better...By the way, the box it was delivered in was huge but everything was intact!Overall, good unit! 15 out of 15 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Great stand for sure. Written By Chuck, Gerrardstown, WV on Tuesday, February 06, 2007 I bought this stand to mount a 50" Plasma and it is really a great stand. The assembly was very easy, has great instructions and layout for those that are challenged in that area. (So easy, even a Caveman could do it). 15 out of 17 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Mostly good stand Written By Ted, Durham, NC on Saturday, January 13, 2007 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This stand was easy to assemble and hang components on. I think it is worth the price given the styling . The result is beautiful. The only thing to complain about is that the raceway for cable routing was rather small for the number of cables I was running. I have a DVD player, DVR, and Receiver on the stand along with a Samsung 46" TV, and I could run no more cables if I needed to. Perhaps switching to HDMI would help, but my DVR's HDMI output does not deliver as good picture quality as its component output which means 5 cables instead of 1 to route. 15 out of 15 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Positive Review: Sanus PFFP2B Written By David, San Francisco, CA on Monday, April 24, 2006 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) I am very happy with this stand and endorse it. It looks great. I've hung my 50" plasma on it, placed my components on the glass shelves, and the whole setup is very sleek. The stand is also very stable and the tilting mount has great functionality. 31 out of 31 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Sanus PFFP2B Written By Rodney, Upper Marlboro, MD on Tuesday, April 18, 2006 I bought this stand April 1, 2006 and I love it. I think it's the best compromise between having a big clunky stand and trying to mount a plasma tv on the wall. This stand looks very cool. It has tempered glass and a wire concealing post in the middle. It is also a lot bigger than it looks in the pictures. I had no problem mounting my panasonic 42 inch display to it. This thing is very well built! The only reason it didn't get 5 stars is because of the $500 price tag. Other than that, it's an excellent purchase. 42 out of 43 people found this helpful Was this review helpful? Yes No Sanus PFFP2B Written By Curt Nelson, Cedar Rapids, IA on Monday, February 27, 2006 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Great looking product. Looks excellent with my black and silver Rotel theater system. Adjustability is great although the mounting brackets for my new Phillips 42" plasma monitor did not expand wide enough to fit the mounting holes. I had to have an adapter made to make it work - would have been nice to know this before I bought it. Overall I really like the look and versitility of the unit now that it is installed. 71 out of 74 people found this helpful Was this review helpful?

Series: Responding to "Laudato Si'" by Pope Francis (4 entries)
Pope Francis's June 2015 encyclical has stirred international conversation on how science and faith come together on the question of ecology and climate change. This short series features several responses from friends of BioLogos, including world-renowned Christian climate scientist Katharine Hayhoe. The series concludes with closing thoughts by BioLogos content manager Jim Stump.
Series: Evolution and Image Bearers (2 entries)
If, according to evolutionary theory, the human species has evolved from non-human ancestors over the course of hundreds of thousands of years, how might we understand humans as uniquely bearing the image of God?
On the Evolution of the Imago Dei: Insights from St. Thomas Aquinas
St. Thomas Aquinas helps us understand how the image of God in man might have developed through evolution.
God as Process Engineer: Creator, Sustainer, Reedemer, and Provider
From a Judeo-Christian perspective, all of these curiosities dovetail into a profoundly meaningful explanation: Being made in God's image helps to explain our creative and investigative skills, particularly when we consider that God has specially engineered this universe to reveal himself to human beings.
"The Language of God" Book Club–Chapter 5
Does Collins show that Evangelicals have turned the corner on the scandal Noll brought to light, or does the continued resistance of the majority of Evangelicals to Collins's work (about 75% reject human evolution) show that we as a collective group still do not take the life of the mind seriously?
To Tame the World: What terrifies us about reality pushes us toward its Creator.
We can understand why man, modern man in particular, would like to mop the floors and bleach the walls. We might not be able to tame reality, but we can tame our perception of reality. We intellectualize in order to feel in control.
The Father of Intelligent Design
"There was no better way, in Boyle's opinion, to 'give us so great a Wonder and Veneration' for God's wisdom, than 'by Knowing and Considering the Admirable Contrivance of the Particular Productions of that Immense Wisdom,' by which he mainly meant the exquisitely fashioned parts of animals both great and small."
The Challenge of Cosmology
The idea that the story we know is only the very beginning raises a new question in place of Feynman's objection that Christianity is provincial. Is it presumptuous to claim that in such a grand universe, possibly with intelligent life arising in many places, the redemption and transformation of the entire cosmos starts here, on our pale blue dot?
Belief in God in an Age of Science: John Polkinghorne, Part One
The world is not full of items stamped "made by God"—the Creator is more subtle than that—but there are two locations where general hints of the divine presence might be expected to be seen most clearly. One is the vast cosmos itself, with its fifteen-billion-year history of evolving development following the big bang. The other is the "thinking reed" of humanity, so insignificant in physical scale but, as Pascal said, superior to all the stars because it alone knows them and itself.
Series: Made in the Image of God: The Theological Implications of Human Genomics (4 entries)
This series by Denis Alexander reflects on advancements in genomics as well as their theological implications. He focuses on the relatedness of hominin genomes, arguing that this does not interfere with the image of God in humans. The image of God depends more on the capacity for relationship and covenant, not on a list of particular physical qualities. He then discusses why the recent studies of genomics provide "no grounds for genetic determinism."
Series: Harmonizing Science, Ethics, and Praxis (4 entries)
In this three-part series, Cal DeWitt offers insights and examples of why science and ethics must work together to help us make informed, practical decisions within our society. DeWitt's science-ethics-praxis model provides a framework by which we can live more effectively as God's stewards.
Series: To Serve and Preserve—Genesis 2 and the Human Calling (4 entries)
In this series, David Buller pays careful attention to the original language and cultural context of Genesis 2, revealing that our responsibility to care for creation is a sacred task given to us by God, not merely a modern secular activity. By taking Scripture seriously, we learn that we have a God-given mandate to be diligent stewards of His creation.
Katharine Hayhoe: Evangelical Christian, Climate Scientist
As an Evangelical and a scientist, Katharine Hayhoe is already a member of a rare breed. As a climate change researcher who is also married to an evangelical Christian pastor, she is nearly one of a kind.
What Does It Mean to Be Human? A Response to Bruce Little, Part 2
Trinitarian theology and the image of God are important, non-essentialist resources to help us think about the distinct place of humanity in creation.
The Questions Update: The Image of God
Over the last two weeks, the Forum has explored the imago Dei from various perspectives. Today's post features a preview of the updated Question, "How could humans have evolved and still be created in the ' Image of God'? written by Senior Web Consultant and Writer Deborah Haarsma.
The Broken Made Whole
There is a sense in which we look at Temma and we want to affirm that she is made in the image of God by denying that the image of God has anything to do with her physical, material body.
More Than Skin Deep: The Image of God in People with Disabilities
My students twinge and recoil a bit at the thought that persons with disabilities can be made in God's image. "They just don't look like it," they say, zeroing in on what is physically seen.
Series: Chosen by God: Biblical Election and the Imago Dei (6 entries)
At the center of the theological and cultural controversy surrounding biological evolution stands the question: "How do human beings—creatures uniquely created in the image and likeness of God—fit into the scientific picture of life's origins and development?" In this three-part series, Dr. Joshua Moritz endeavors to address this question by exploring what Scripture means—and does not mean—by the designation "image and likeness of God".
Southern Baptist Voices: Evolutionary Creationism and the Imago Dei
I wish to question whether or not it is possible for the image of God to be produced through the evolutionary process apart from the special intervention of God.

Reviewed 2013 Lexus LX570: The Velvet Hammer
Thursday, September 5, 2013 at 9:48PM
Based on the legendary Toyota Land Cruiser, the Lexus LX 570 has real off road credentials of it's own, winning the Baja 500 & Baja 1000 in the hands of Joe Bacal in the Stock Class.
But with all that, 99.95 percent of the people who buy the LX570 will never drive it off road, unless you count dirt roads. So we have to ask, how does the LX570 stack up as a luxury SUV, expecally when compared to the new Range Rover and the Mercedes-Benz GL? That's what we find out on this episode of Rumblestrip.NET and Ten Minute Test Drive

Bum camping means plunking your bum down pretty much anywhere and calling it a night.
Japan has less crime than we're used to and a tolerant attitude toward homeless people.
Their little blue tents are tucked here and there in parks and under bridges.
We figured "How hard can it be?".
At Nikko, we found a nice spot in the woods. In the next town we camped on an out-of the-way terrace in a park. That went so well, the next night we camped in a prime waterfront spot in Ueno park, Tokyo.
Donna's folding bike cost $60 at a "Cainz Home" hardware superstore in Japan. It's nice. Buy your bike there unless you're very tall or picky. Her sleeping bag cost $10 in a Japanese discount sporting goods store (sports authority I think). It's plenty warm. Remember when things were expensive in Japan? They're a lot closer to China than we are, and it seems like they get better stuff from there for less than we do.
Do you like this story? Digg it!
Step 1: Cops Have Low Prestige in Japan
This paralyzed them for two reasons:
1: They were too embarassed to attempt their English in front of co-workers.
2: Not knowing where each stood in Sempai order for English, it was impossible for any of them to take the lead. (Sempai is seniority in a mentorship structure. Two people can shift in and out of Sempai role as they engage in various activities depending on who has attained highest rank in the specific activity.)
They made various gestures seen in Manga comics and went away. We slept well for the rest of the night. Park Attacker Man seen in that poster also left us alone. (I'm illiterate now, is that really what it says?)
When I'm by myself I'm paranoid and stealth off somewhere to sleep invisibly. If I'm really paranoid I'll disappear even more, pitch a tent and sleep in the scrub a few yards off to one side of it. I'm told I snore like a dying monster, which isn't great for a stealth program, but oh well.
On this trip I had Donna to protect me, so we boldly camped like the great bums of old.
Are there enough trees around (typically) to sleep in a hammock?
I too did some bumcamping trips through the balkans with two of my friends. We slept at the adriatic waterfront all the time and it was great! I think it´s the best way to travel: It´s dirtcheap and you get too know a lot of nice people.
Senpai. Not "Sempai".
The signboard at Ueno Park is looking for the victim not a park attacker. It's too bad, his picture look terrible.
This is great, I'm from Africa and our currency isn't great so it would prob be the only way for me to see Japan. I just have one question, where did you wash / use the bathroom?

And when you're not, edit your post to say you're too busy and then re-edit it for when you are again
Something like this:
Hi! I'm available from Oct. 1 - Oct. 8 to be a last minute challenge buddy for poetry! Drop me a PM if you need some help. Be sure to get it to me before 8:00 pm, so I can get it back to you quickly.
And then if you can't, simply edit your post, or add a new one that says you're not available until further notice.

I need to put a new server on the network, which needs to have a public IP-address. The supplier of this SIP-server insist on having one of the server interfaces configured with a public routable IP-address, so a MIP is not an option.
Our setup is quite straightforward. We have a SSG5 connected to a switch on a /27 network with a couple of IP-addresses available to us:
eth0/1 Untrust x.x.x.156 / 27 with gateway x.x.x.129 / 27 and a couple of VIP's on x.x.x.157
eth0/2 DMZ 192.168.4.0 / 24
The public address of the new SIP-server is x.x.x.155 / 27, which is in the same subnet as the Untrust interface of the SSG5. A second interface of this server needs to be put in our DMZ. Audio streams are going to be routed through the SIP-server to codecs in the DMZ zone.
Of course I don't want to have this server unprotected on the internet. But if I put it on another interface of the SSG5 I get the overlapping subnet error.
The only solution I can think of is a second firewall put in transparent mode to protect the SIP-server.
But is there another way of doing this on one SSG?
Any input is greatly appreciated!
You can move your eth0/1 ip address to a bgroup and then have eth0/1 and another interface for your sip server assigned to this bgroup.
Intrazone blocking is enabled by default for the untrust zone. So you will then need to create the necessary policies for what untrust traffic is allowed to forward to the sip server.
The inbound traffic will arrive from the isp line that I assume you have connected to eth0/1 and be forwarded to the sip server on the second interface if there is a policy that allows the traffic.
I've noticed that when voip vendors want to directly connect their server, it usually means they have no idea how to identify and allow their specific traffic. So you may end up with issues initially in connections to troubleshoot.
You will probably need to create a custom service and assign this to "application sip" in your policy to allow the random ports that negotiate for the call sessions. This is usually the "problem" with putting the public interface behind a nat firewall and not the address translation itself.
Thank you for your answer. But as far as I understand a bridge group puts the interfaces that are members of this bgroup in the same broadcast domain. Wouldn't traffic be switched between these two interfaces regardless of the security settings?
Yes, the bgroup does put the interfaces into the same broadcast domain. But the configuration of the zone still applies to the traffic for that zone of the bgroup.
By default, all zones allow traffic between nodes in the same zone freely. The exception is the untrust zone. This one does have the intrazone blocking parameter set. So the default behavior without any intrazone policies will be to block traffic for untrust to untrust traffic.
Intrazone blocking can be turned on for any zone as needed.
Generally the trick is getting the traffic between two nodes in the same zone to transit the firewall so it can apply the block policy. That is why the bgroup is needed in these cases. You need both the inbound isp traffic to arrive on one firewall interface and need to forward it out a second on the firewall so it has the opportunity to do the policy lookup. With the zone being untrust and therefore intrazone blocking turned on this will work for you.
Your policies are then untrust to untrust for this traffic.
Hi Steve,
I'm afraid the setup with a bgroup on the untrust side doesn't work. I did a test setup on a SSG5 with 2 interfaces put in a bgroup. I've put this bgroup in the Untrust zone and put an IP-address on it. Everything else is setup in a basic manner. Just one policy allowing all traffic from Trust to Untrust. Intra-zone blocking on the Untrust zone is in place. But if i put a host on the second untrust interface it immediately gets an IP-address from the DHCP server from the upstream router and can access the internet. So despite of the fact that intra-zone blocking is enabled and there isn't any policy from untrust to untrust, traffic is flowing freely between these 2 interfaces. It is just acting like a switch.
So I have to find another solution for my problem...
Best regards,
Obviously I'm surprised the intrazone blocking does not work with a bgroup. I use this a lot in untrust for other interfaces.
I have another possibility you could test. I did a partial implementation in a lab last year and this worked as far as I tested. But it ended up not being something I pursued.
I used two virtual routers to mix transparent mode with layer 3 on the same device. The trick was that the transparent vr had to be trust-vr as it would not let me move the vlan1 interface and zone.
I was able to have the second vr function as a normal layer 3 firewall and insert the trust-vr transparent mode interfaces into a server connection.
But the testing was short lived and limited. I ended up abandoning the approach for the intrazone blocking design.
I tested the bgroup blocking on an SSG-140, and it didn't yeild good results either -- traffic was not blocked. The bgroup member ports acted as if they were part of a switch external to the firewall. I have a feeling that's not intended behavior, but that's what happens.
I did also test the hack I mentioned earlier. It works fine, but not quite as elegantly as on a Cisco router, and in fact is quite a bit of a kludge as it requires specific configuration on the DMZ server itself. I would say it can be used, but as a last resort. I amended the steps as following:
1) Configure server as if there's no firewall (public IP, default gw is ISP router)
2) Connect server to DMZ interface.
3) Configure static ARP on the DMZ server: ISP GW IP -> MAC of DMZ interface on FW. Unfortunately, the firewall refuses to do Proxy ARP on an interface for IP that doesn't belong to that interface. That is a bummer.
3) Set up /32 static route for the server IP going out of the DMZ interface (no gw address). The route must have a preference of 0. That's so that it's on par with Connected routes.
4) Enable proxy ARP for the DMZ Server IP address on the Unturst interface.
5) Set up Untrust<->DMZ policy for policies to allow traffic in and out as necessary.
6) The DMZ interface must have an IP address configured. If you already have a DMZ subnet defined, then that's fine. Otherwise, any IP address will do (even a /32), because the firewall will not route traffic out of an interface if that interface has no IP address (even if a route appears as active in the routing table).
I'm going to do some testing. Thank you both very much for the help. Much appreciated!
Why would that not be the intended behavior for a bgroup? Your not traversing "interfaces" at that point. If you have eth0 and eth1 both in the untrust zone, your traversing interfaces, and subnets so policy can be applied.
By first question really is.... why is the SIP provider so insistant on not using a MIP. Also, have you tried to get away with it? They might never know, perhaps it's just because they don't like dealing with tshooting through a firewall?

Hi, I am doing an experiment where I go to different locations and from a half mile distance record the speed of sound. I did this by using walkie-talkies and blowing an air horn on cue, having the other person record how long it took for them to hear the noise using a stopwatch. I still need a few of my questions answered for an "interview" of someone in my projects field of science (physics). The locations I conducted this at were a control (flat empty field), a forest, a hilly area, and a coast, as well as all of these in the rain. I conducted the test 3 times per location and found the average. The results are listed below. I would greatly appreciate a reply to my questions.
Control (flat field): 2.51 seconds
Control/Rain: 2.28 seconds
Forest: 2.72 seconds
Forest/Rain: not completed
Hills: 2.58 seconds
Hills/Rain: 2.41 seconds
Coast: 0.72 seconds
Coast/Rain: not heard at all
1.Are things such as trees and leaves normally known to reduce the sound?
2.When it rains, the sound's laminar will go under major stress, but sound travels faster in water, do you think the acceleration of the water will outweigh the stress of the laminar?
3.The first time I did the experiment in the forest, I didn't hear the sound at all, is it possible that all the sound bounced back or got absorbed by the dense population of trees and leaves? (I later went to a slightly less dense forest, and it worked great)
4.Will sound become slower or faster after going through a solid, since sound travels faster in solid yet can also be absorbed into the solid or even be slowed down when some of it bounces back?
5.What do you think of the results for my experiment?
6.Seeing how quickly that sound travels in humid temperatures, such as the coast, how long (distance wise) do you think the sound would travel?

I taught some friends how to reuse old picture frames and curtains to make screens, burn them in the sun, and clean them with a garden hose. While we were at it we took some pictures so we could share the lesson with you.
Step 1: Gather up Your Materials
- The image you want to use. The best is to have your image photocopied onto a transparency at maximum darkness. You can also paint or draw with white out on transparent plastic (cellophane wrap or clear packaging from toys work). Another option is to make a cut-out with dark-colored construction paper or to lay some flat object (pieces of lace are nice) on the screen. Objects that aren't flat (skeleton keys, for example) can also work, but you have to move the screen around in that case to avoid a shadow.
- Wooden picture frames which are completely flat on the front surface. You can find these in all kinds of sizes at the Goodwill or Salvation Army or at garage sales for about a dollar each. You will also be using the pieces of glass that come in the frames. You will need a piece of glass from a frame smaller than the frame you use to make your screen.
- An old, gauzy curtain. Color doesn't matter, but it does need to be in reasonably good condition. It can't have too many holes. The more tightly woven the curtain, the more fine your print can be, but you can get pretty nice results with any gauzy old thing. I keep my eye open for these at thrift stores and yard sales.
- A piece of black or dark-colored fabric big enough to put the frame on.
- A staple gun and staples. Don't get staples that are too long or they'll poke out through the frame. Even that isn't such a big deal, but it's preferable to not have sharp little metal points sticking out along the inside of your screen.
- Photosensitive goo and activator. Speedball is the most common brand you will find for this at the art store. You need the emulsion and the activator and they come in two different bottles which you have to mix together. Don't bother with the screen cleaner. If you want to reunse the same screen for other designs, you can get screen cleaner.
- I recommend buying an art squeegie specially for screen printing. You can get along without one, but it's a lot easier to print with this tool than to do it with a hunk of cardboard. But in a pinch, the hunk of cardboard will work, too. The lip of a box works best because it has a good straight edge and is rigid yet flexible.
- Sceen Printing ink. You can get this at the art supplies store. I have also printed on wood with acrylic paint and gotten good results.
- Masking tape
- Old cereal boxes or similar kinds of cardboard scrap. You'll want to have a little supply of pieces of thin cardboard around. They are super useful for all kinds of things, like scraping ink off sreens and putting it back in the jar.
- Old newspaper to protect the surfaces you're working on
- If you are printing t-shirts you'll need paper to put inside the shirt when you print so that the ink doesn't bleed through the side you're printing on all the way through to the other side. I use regular printer paper for this, but old newspaper would work fine.
- A garden hose. It's best to have an attachment on the hose that shoots the water out with some pressure, but you can get away with not having one. I have used the scratchy side of a kitchen sponge to help me get the emulsion off while spraying the screen with the hose. It damages the screen a little, but it works. Just rubbing with your hand even helps.
- An old rag for spills
- Clothes you don't care about. You're going to mess up your clothes.
- A garden hose, the more pressure the better, but you can by without an attachment if you have to.
How long does it take for the photo emulsion to dry once you spread it onto a screen?
How do I keep my transparency from smudging? I've tried diff. printer settings, but still smudges. ty
where did you buy your emulsion and activator? when looking for activator do I just type in activator?
I loved this no nonsense guide, thank you! I did this a long while back and have a load of ideas I want to do. Question is, should the last step be followed by some sort of heat treatment to make certain the screen print remains good, if so how?
Some fancier puffy inks require a heat gun or baking. These inks are kind of nasty and offgas like mad. I wouldn't use them at home.
thanks for sharing your ideas!
you could also just have a shop do it for you by burning your screens, that'd be more expensive, but you'd be sure to get your screens right the first time.
i'd suggest masking the background out in your pic too unless you wanted it to have a rectangular frame. it would look classier with just your character and the chair printed to my eyes anyways and less like something you bought at a state fair.
if you only want 1 tee, you could always just send your art to a shop that does custom work. i've found the quality of the printing isn't as good then. i think those shops use an ink jet process. bright colors like golds can have red & yellow blotches making me think the colors are directly mixed on the tee.
First off, go to the dollar store and get a wooden picture frame or try walmart for the frame or see if they have embroidery hoops that are the correct size and are cheap. Then all you need is ink or fabric paint, sizzlers or razor blade to cut the design, paper, screen, tape, and a squeegie tool of some sort and something to print onto (T-shirt or whatever). http://www.guardian.co.uk/lifeandstyle/2010/may/11/how-to-screen-print-tshirts-at-home
Thanks-- this sounds so cool!
Any other website that sells photo emulsion?
Can somebody please post what kind of chemicals are used for making the photo emulsion !!

Saints Healthy, Ready For Rematch In Seattle
The New Orleans Saints have lost a few players to injured reserve over the course of the season, but right now, they're looking extremely healthy for those still on the active roster. With all 53 players at practice and some new methods implemented by coach Sean Payton, the Saints are as ready as they'll ever be.
Saints Looking Healthy, But One Big Name Mars The Short Injury Report
The New Orleans Saints are ready to head to Philadelphia, face the Eagles, battle the cold, and forget about their road woes. They are looking healthier than they have this entire season and have an injury list that is extremely short, but there is one big name that sits on it.
Saints Need To Forget Road Woes As Philly Trip Looms
The New Orleans Saints have a revamped defense and an offense that appears to have even more weapons than that of their Super Bowl winning team. For some reason though, the Saints just can't get things going on the road, but they will have to change that for a wild card visit to Philadelphia.
Saints Star RB Out For Playoffs
The Saints have placed last season's leading rusher on injured reserve and signed Joique Bell from the Philadelphia Eagles' practice squad.

The Agoras Project Creates a Quiet Urban Escape in Busy Istanbul
Located in the heart of the bustling metropolis of Istanbul, the Agoras Project is a green oasis and a sea of calm amongst urban sprawl. This mixed-use residential development offers up different sized flats to appeal to various budgets and family types. Included in the development is a shopping mall, 14 cinemas, a fitness center, restaurants, and numerous cafes and shops – designed so residents would not have to travel too far from home for daily basic needs.
Each of the residential towers have been strategically sited so as to not block any apartment views of the courtyard or the surrounding areas. Apartments have been oriented to face the south in order to maximize natural light during the day. Garden terraces, green courtyards, and vertical green spaces are connected directly to the residences to give way to a more thoughtful connection to the natural environment. Additionally, solar power and rain water collection systems are active green strategies helping to minimize the environmental impact of the development.

Monday's are stuck with being one the most maligned days of the week. Back to school, back to work, staff meetings, projects, the beginning of another tough work week - no one looks forward to Monday. But this year during the college football season we will give you at least one reason to look forward to Monday with a reprise of Saturday's Duke football game and a early week look at the next opponent in an offering titled "Monday Mornings."
DURHAM -- This Duke football team has become a legend of warriors, fighters.
And Saturday's win over Troy was a perfect example of the dig-in-the-dirt, get-it-done somehow attitude of this Duke football team.
Leading at halftime, 28-21, the Blue Devils knew they were in for a dogfight. This Troy team was not about to go away.
"We just made a decision, especially in the fourth quarter, that we needed to stop them," explained junior linebacker David Helton, who ended the game with a game-high 15 tackles. "That was it. We made a decision that we needed to get a rush on the quarterback and stop them."
And that's exactly what Duke did as defensive ends Justin Foxx, Kenny Anunike, Jonathan Woodruff and Dezmond Johnson put the pressure on Troy quarterbacks Corey Robinson and Deon Anthony. The results were three sacks and five tackles for a loss for the foursome.
"We talked a lot going into the game about every man on both lines of scrimmage winning your personal battle," explained Duke head coach David Cutcliffe. "When you're out there at end and you're rushing a passer, it's usually you and an offensive tackle and vice versa when our offensive line is out there. We felt like those matchups were in our favor. We didn't get as much out of that in the first half and those guys challenged themselves and it was much better."
The game still looked to be a shootout in the third quarter as both Troy and Duke scored in the first six minutes of the second half.
"We won the shootout because our defense was opportunistic in some down-and-distance circumstances and got it done," explained Cutcliffe. "And forced eight punts – that's a big deal in a game like this."
What was really big was the third-down stops for the Blue Devils as they held Troy to just five-of-16 third down conversions in the game, two-of seven in the second half.
"We had some big plays on defense and didn't give up near as many explosive plays," said Cutcliffe. "We gave up a few but you're going to do that in this day and time. The thing is they just had too many easy completions as the day wore down. But I'm real proud of our guys playing 60 minutes. We got better today. We got better in every area today and that's going to prove to be helpful to us as we continue to put this season together."
The offense did a nice job of not shooting themselves in the foot, turning the ball over just once and as a team committing just four penalties for 35 yards.
The true warrior on the offensive side of the ball is quarterback Brandon Connette. Once again Jamison Crowder with seven catches for 149 yards and one touchdown and Josh Snead with 11 carries for 108 yards were the stars of the game, but Connette just keeps relentlessly making things happen for this team.
He has become such a symbol of this team. Not the greatest quarterback you will ever see, but a true gritty fighter, who just can't be kept down, while leading his team to a 3-2 record heading into this week's open date.
"A lot of that comes from just how my parents raised me," said Connette, a native of Corona, Calif. "Growing up, I had five younger brothers and an older sister, so it was just a war every day in my house. It was a real physical household, roughhousing and stuff. If you got hurt roughhousing, my mom and dad would just say, 'It's your fault, you were playing the game.' So I think that's just my mentality. My parents did a great job with all my brothers and sister as well. That's what I credit the toughness to."
He threw for a career-high 324 yards, completing 20-of-28 passes, and rushed for 55 yards on Saturday. He scored two touchdowns on the ground while throwing for three.
"We came out on offense the first two series and went 3-and-out trying to find a rhythm, but once we found our rhythm we just got on a roll," explained Connette, who is responsible for 17 (11 passing, 6 rushing) touchdowns this season. "It was four straight drives with touchdowns, and you can't really ask for much more than that on offense. Troy came out and put more people in the box and did a good job against the run, so a lot of credit to Troy for making those adjustments."
"We put together some explosive plays," added Cutcliffe. "When you have 20 completions and 324 passing yards, that's being pretty effective with your completions. He missed a couple just by a hair to Jamison, and he's got those capabilities. He can run the football and he can manage the game, and he's going to continue to get better. We're nursing two sore quarterbacks and riding that horse No. 18 pretty hard. There's a lot of pressure on that young man … He's a gutsy performer. He's not always going to be perfect, but he is a very gutsy performer."
"Brandon Connette was a make-them-miss kind of guy and they have a couple of backs that creased us there pretty good, early," said Troy head coach Larry Blakeney following the game. "Receivers caught the ball and made runs. It was like a circus for a while. They're a well-oiled machine, well-coached with a lot of character."
And while Connette seems most at home running the ball, he loves to air it out and stretch the defense.
"You have to take shots," he explained. "If you don't take shots during the game, whether they're complete or incomplete, the defense is never going to be afraid of it. They're just going to sit on the sticks and sit on the routes. So you have to take shots; you have to hope that more of them go for you than against you, and if they go against you hopefully they're just incompletions."
Following the victory over Troy, Cutcliffe was very straight-forward with his team.
"I told them, 'Guys, I want you to understand that there haven't been a lot of Homecomings won around here in recent years. It's a big deal in itself.'"
In fact, it was the third consecutive Homecoming victory for the Blue Devils, but prior to capturing those three wins, Duke was 3-17 in Homecoming games. In their last 23 Homecoming tilts at Wallace Wade Stadium, Duke has only six wins with four of those wins coming with Cutcliffe as head coach.
"We're playing with essentially our third quarterback and still playing and gaining 514 yards," Cutcliffe said when asked about his overall feel for Saturday's game. "I don't know when we've been able to do that. There are a lot of great things going on with this football program and this particular team. This team is 3-2 the hard way. Nothing's going to ever be easy but we're going to be exciting."
