It is situated 100 km north of the Finnish capital Helsinki. Today Lahti can be reached from the international airport in Helsinki-Vantaa by bus or train in just 60 minutes. The landscape in the region is dominated by green forests and unspoiled pure lakes enriched by undulating forms of the Salpausselkä ridge. The region of Päijät-Häme can be called the heart of Finland, as the life in the post ice age period started from the surroundings of Lake Päijänne in the rural area of Asikkala. Twelve municipalities belong to the region of Päijät-Häme: the cities of Lahti, Heinola and Orimattila, and the municipalities of Hollola, Sysmä, Asikkala, Hämeenkoski, Hartola, Nastola, Kärkölä, Padasjoki and Artjärvi. Today the region of Päijät-Häme offers a balanced mixture of original Finnish traditions and a modern way of life. Surrounded by a charming scenery about 200,000 people live here, half of them in the regional centre of Lahti. A fifth of the Päijät-Häme regions 6,295 km2 is covered by lakes. The third largest lake of Finland, Lake Päijänne, dominates the region with its natural beauty. Apart from its significance for the touristic development of Päijät-Häme, it is also an important drinking water reservoir for the whole Southern Finland.

Our intension is to create a continuous, iterative strategic decision process which gives us an opportunity to learn about the future and to define the strategy step by step.

Our ambitious objective is to connect better than before general guidelines, individual measures, projects and acts.

Hey guys and girls i am new here so i hope i posted this in the right place.
Well like i said in the name i am setting up a new net work at my house and i would like to have some input and / or help on how i should go bout this do to the network load i will have from time to time, as of right now i have 4/more computers, 2 servers, tv and a xbox360 + a laptop and phones all on my network at the same time and i am sick of always have to look out for spam and etc cuz of what ppl are doing on the computers.
So i was think bout setting up my new network like this
if you guys and girls don't mind i would likr to know if it is a good way or how should i go bout this /fix in my network?
Ps. i can run any os and what would be a good firewall to go whit on the firewall box i was thinking bout smoothwall but i am getting some errors trying to get it to run on one of my old bored's that has two lan ports made on it.
-Think :)

Hi There,
looks pretty good, i would recommend using Untangle as your firewall, as this can do spam filtering, antivirus, antimalware, phishing blocking all at the gateway. its free to download - www.untangle.com and works really well, and its free, and runs on most hardware.
Jun 27, 2012 at 8:31 UTC
"Alan-FNS" Thinks for getting back to me so fast and i have try to use Untangle be for an i sill had the same issues, the bored is an "abit aw8d" whit dul lan ports and i hook up the red link for in and then the green line for out but it will work for bout 5 mins and then just stop or it will not even read off of my motorola... Any way to fix that or ant other firewall you can think of?
Jun 27, 2012 at 8:42 UTC
If you wanted something even simpler, OpenDNS would work for web filtering and what not. Personally get rid of that Linksys Wireless G. If you want something, buy a refurb Cisco E2000 or E3000 (depending if you want dual band or not) and flash it with DD-WRT. You got yourself a nice little access point that can do quite a bit.
My setup right now contains a Motorola modem > Cisco ASA 5505 > GFI Webmonitor > then everything else.
Jun 27, 2012 at 8:44 UTC
Only thing i can think, is does the board have the latest bios? maybe try running windows on it, does it all work fine then? failing that, try www.shorewall.net, or ipcop - www.ipcop.org I have used shorewall in the past, but if you are having problems with both Untangle, and Smoothwall, it sounds like a hardware issue.
Jun 27, 2012 at 9:03 UTC
will OpenDNS have a gui so i can open ports oe will it all gave to be done like on puTTy or some then?
I was thinking bout removing it out of the network and getting a better so i may just do that at a later time but for right now i have to work whit what i have, Thinks tho ill let you know when i do so i can get your help on doing the flash on it if you don't mind helping me whit that :)
board have the latest bios: IDK but i will update them (i forgot bout that lol).
running windows on it, does it all work fine then: Yes it is my old bored and it was up and running be for i try to run it as a firewall.
I will give them a try and yes i think it is a software / driver issue do to tho both the same port type and/or take the same drive!?!?!.... maybe :/ idk lol
Oh and will ipcop or shorewall have a web gui or any gui at all i would like to see what is going on whit my network / servers from time to time lol
Think for all your help so far guys :)
Jun 27, 2012 at 9:09 UTC
Basically what you do is point your firewall or router to OpenDNS servers. You then create an account and set it up. From the web interface you setup if you want botnet/malware protection and what websites to block. You have the ability to whitelist/blacklist sites. That is all. No port forwarding.
Jun 27, 2012 at 9:22 UTC
That is cool, i may even use that too but i need a way to port forwarding / open ports do to one of my servers i host games / a website testing box and i need it to talk to the out side world from time to time, but i will add it on the list to give it a shoot / look in to.
-Think :)
Jun 27, 2012 at 9:40 UTC
Yeah as far as firewall I just use a Cisco ASA 5505 for my home use. I've installed Untangle once, but never got a chance to mess with it.
Jun 27, 2012 at 9:55 UTC
cool cool, ill look in to that as well
think for the info :)
Jun 27, 2012 at 10:16 UTC
Put in a vote for the Astaro Security Gateway. Their software is free for home use and has a great interface. It will load on most PC hardware. VLANs will let you route all traffic through only one NIC...
Jun 28, 2012 at 2:59 UTC
1st Post
I vote the Astaro security gateway (the new name is Sophos UTM home edition) it is the best far away. you cant find it here http:/
Jun 28, 2012 at 4:23 UTC
To add confusion to the mix suggested above:
Running solid without reboot for 2 months supporting 40+ users and multiple servers, webgui, ssh, you name it.
Jun 28, 2012 at 4:49 UTC
I use PFsense as my guest firewall and it is rock solid, does exactly what it says on the tin, a real simple yet powerful bit of kit.
Jun 28, 2012 at 2:36 UTC
i'll add Astaro Security Gateway to the list to give it a try, free is always good lol,
do you think i will have the same issues with it as i did with smoothwall / other's ?
i'll go take a look and read up on it maybe even run some of them in a VM just to test them out to find the one i want to use.
nice i like when ppl add confusion it helps to get more info and to find things that are out there! , i will put PFSense on the list as well.
Wow really? 2 months that is really saying some then there, but as i keep coming back to this "do you think i will have the same issues with it as i did with smoothwall / other's ?? but i do like that it has "webgui & ssh" that will come in handy when i am not at home and need to see what is going on at home!
would it be good to use as a main firewall and not just a guest? , I do pc repair from time to time and i forgot to add that in to the EX up top but ill work it out, don't want anything coming back on to my main network.
-Thinks all :)
Jun 28, 2012 at 11:39 UTC
You shouldn't have any trouble with the Astaro software. It seems to be pretty stable on most hardware. Now if you had bad hardware, that would be something else to fix.
Jun 29, 2012 at 1:03 UTC
alright and yeah i know if its hardware then that is an all new fix, but it has been and still is working when i put a H.D.D. in there whit windows on it so i think it is only software issuse
Jun 29, 2012 at 1:49 UTC
I use many years astaro and pfsense on a corporate level and are both good but astaro is in constant change, while the pfsense stagnant. For backup applications and generally unified system look zentyal it is also great opensource solution (http:/
I hope didn't confuse you.
Jun 29, 2012 at 8:32 UTC
Hey thinks for the input, I think the top 3 are astaro, pfsense and zentyal looks nice ill add it to the list an test it to.
You did a but but on the 2n time reading it i got what you was trying to say!
Thinks :)

UK Throws Squad Wins Five Event Titles at Purdue
April 19, 2009
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. - University of Kentucky track and field throwers won five event titles and posted nine NCAA regional-qualifying marks this weekend at Purdue's Dave Rankin Invitational.
Senior Ashley Muffet led the way, collecting two titles and three regional-qualifying marks. She posted a personal-best discus throw for the second consecutive week, resulting in an NCAA mark. Muffet's distance of 181-7 topped the competition and improved her mark that ranks second all-time at UK. The veteran thrower also won the shot put championship, for her second regional-qualifying mark with a measurement of 52-2. In the women's hammer throw, Muffet notched her third NCAA mark with a second-place distance measuring 189-5.
Junior Kristin Smith edged Muffet for the hammer throw title with a regional-qualifying throw of 191-6. Classmate Heather Smith finished seventh in the event with a mark of 154-8. Fellow junior Emily Bernhardt's throw of 150-11 was good for eighth place.
Sophomore Mary Angell posted a regional-qualifying mark in both the shot put and discus. Angell threw a personal-best mark as a Wildcat of 157-8 to place fourth in the discus. Her shot put throw of 47-5.25 ranked third overall.
Senior Emilee Strot threw a season-best distance of 171-3 to place second in the discus and earned an NCAA-qualifying mark in the event. She finished fourth in the shot put, throwing a distance of 46-10.75.
On the men's side, senior Rashaud Scott won two titles. Scott recorded a season-best shot put mark of 59-11.75 for the championship. In the discus, he claimed first with a distance measuring 192-7 feet from the ring. Scott earned regional-qualifying marks for both winning performances.
In the men's hammer throw, senior Alek Grietens threw a mark of 184-7 to place fourth. Grietens' first discus competition of the year yielded an eighth-place finish with a mark of 156-2.
The UK men hold the No. 10 position in the outdoor United States Track and Field and Cross Country Coaches Association (USTFCCCA) poll released last week.
The Kentucky track and field team continues its schedule at the Penn Relays and UCSD Invitational next weekend.

Queens, New York | 2004
In collaboration with MVRDV and Stoss Landscape Architecture
The Olympic and post-Olympic Village deserves intensity and visibility. This is proposed by dividing the given plot into two radical, synergetic elements: one empty, one full. An urban public space at the river faces a dense urban neighborhood: the Village on the Beach. The Village condenses all the program into a portion of the site to stimulate a NYC-style urbanity that would otherwise be diluted on the entire site.
By differentiating the towers in program and appearance, a collection is created that stimulates a sense of individuality and belonging. The ground level of towers contain public functions, lobbies and parking entrances. The higher floors house the apartments with varying floor plate sizes and incorporate private and public gardens.

The Tilt-Up Concrete Association has named a new 4-million square foot building under construction in the Houston-area the worlds largest largest tilt-up concrete building. The building, under construction and expected to open in 2016 is to be part of a new campus for Daikin Industries, Ltd. According to a press release:
"We track project accomplishments or records in a variety of categories to demonstrate the broad variety of application and overall achievement of tilt-up professionals," said James Baty, technical director for the Tilt-Up Concrete Association. "This includes statistics like largest buildings (footprint and total floor area), tallest panels, heaviest panels, widest panels, largest wall area and more." The current record holders in the largest building categories are Target's Import Warehouse in Savannah, Ga. at 2,029,554 square feet (footprint) and the Gateway Theatre of Shopping in Umhlunga Rocks, South Africa at 3,420,000 square feet (floor area). "At 4,130,698 square feet, this new project breaks multiple records," said Baty.

No one won.
And with no jackpot winner in Wednesday's Powerball drawing, the pot has swollen to an estimated $675 million for the next drawing, which will be held Saturday night.
That would be the largest U.S. lottery jackpot ever, according to USAMega.com, a lottery website.
Even though no one won Wednesday's jackpot, 7,124,983 tickets were winners, including 14 that matched five numbers for $1 million apiece and a 15th ticket with the Power Play that won $2 million.
