virtualization works well with iSCSI's easy-to-use data storage. Part of this obvious pairing stems from the fact that iSCSI-initiating software is available natively in Windows Server 2008.
But configuring iSCSI's multiple connections can be problematic. The iSCSI Initiator administrative tool isn't Microsoft's finest example of an easy-to-understand wizard. One alternative is to use the iscsicli.exe command line tool to establish a connection between a Hyper-V server and an iSCSI target to host a virtual machine (VM). In this tip, I'll explore this method and explain the commands you'll need to complete the connection.
Benefits of iSCSI in small virtualization deployments
Combining the cost benefits of Hyper-V and iSCSI -- especially when compared with the Fibre Channel alternative -- makes iSCSI a smart solution for small and medium-sized virtual environments. Many administrators who choose Hyper-V virtualization find themselves using iSCSI to place their servers in storage. In addition, iSCSI has established itself as a viable option to support the performance needs of virtual storage and has proven to perform well even on slow networks and less-than-stellar disks. It worked well even in a worst-case-scenario performance test that I detail in this blog post from Concentrated Technology on clustered Hyper-V.
Using the iscsicli command to connect to Hyper-V servers
Now let's discuss how you can use the iscsicli command line tool to set up a simple connection between a Hyper-V server and an iSCSI target. The purpose of this connection is to host a Hyper-V VM. In this example, I explain the commands you need to enable and prepare the iSCSI initiator, connect to targets and prepare those targets for use. This example assumes that you've already completed the necessary tasks at your iSCSI target to create a volume and properly expose its logical unit number (LUN) to a Hyper-V server. In this example, the iSCSI target portal is located at 192.168.0.100, and the exposed target name is "hyper-v".
First, you need to use three commands to enable and prepare the iSCSI initiator for use. They are the following:
netsh advfirewall firewall set rule group="iSCSI Service" new enable=yes
sc config msiscsi start= auto
net start msiscsi
The first command creates four necessary rules in the Windows firewall for connecting the initiator to a target. The second and third commands here enable the Service Control Manager to set the start mode to Automatic and then start the Microsoft iSCSI Initiator Service. Completing these three tasks makes the host's iSCSI initiator ready for use.
The next step is to connect the initiator to the target. With a single network interface card (NIC) connecting to a single target portal, this process requires only five lines:
iscsicli addTargetPortal 192.168.0.100 3260
iscsicli listTargets
iscsicli qLoginTarget hyper-v
iscsicli persistentLoginTarget hyper-v T * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * 0
iscsicli bindPersistentVolumes
In the five lines above, the iscsicli command is used to connect the initiator to the target portal at 192.168.0.100 over port 3260. Line two lists the available targets, which in this example is limited to the hyper-v target only. The third command logs into the hyper-v target, followed immediately by the fourth command which instructs the server to make the target persistent. This ensures that the initiator logs back into the target after a reboot. The final command forces the initiator to determine and perpetuate any exposed volumes.
In the fourth line, you'll notice a strange syntax; there are several switches that can modify the persistentLoginTarget command. The first switch, T, ensures that the LUN is exposed as a device, making it a fully functional disk. The 18th value, 0, specifies the number of target mappings the initiator should use when logging into the target. The * characters in the middle are used as placeholders.
The final steps in the process use the diskpart.exe command-line tool to bring a disk online, create a read/write partition and quickly format it for use. You can do so by creating a diskpart script and invoking that script with the command diskpart.exe /s {scriptFile.txt}. Below you'll find a sample script file to get you started, where the end result is a remote iSCSI disk that is ready for Hyper-V to use. This script assumes that your iSCSI disk is disk 1:
select disk 1
online disk
attributes disk clear readonly
create partition primary
select partition 1
format fs=ntfs label=Hyper-V quick
assign letter=Z
If you're familiar with iSCSI connections, you know that the scripts discussed here are fairly basic in how they set up the connection between initiator and target. Most iSCSI implementations use more than one connection over multiple network interface cards. This ensures that multiple paths are available in case one fails or experiences a problem.
If your environment uses multi-pathing and iSCSI's Multipath I/O, you'll need to repeat the addTargetPortal and persistentLogonTarget commands for each NIC and connection. You'll also want to add the logon flag ISCSI_LOGIN_FLAG_MULTIPATH_ENABLED to ensure that Multipath I/O is enabled for each connection. Details about each of these commands can be found in Appendix C of the Microsoft iSCSI Software Initiator Version 2.0 Users Guide.

5280: But isn't it interesting that that much attention is paid to you? JE: I guess that's why everyone loves me. I give them something to talk about. (laughs) Seriously, though, I'd been to the White House before, and the last time I went to the White House I got food poisoning, so I wasn't all that excited about going back.
5280: Another one of the rumors was that you were going to get into politics. JE: I don't know where that started. I enjoy supporting the Republican Party, but I've never wanted to get into the front line of politics. It was flattering to hear people say, "you could be a senator," or "you could be a congressman," but it was never something that I seriously considered. Someone very smart once said to me, "Why would you want to do that when 90 percent of the people love you now? The moment you get into politics, half of them will stop liking you."
5280: In the early days, there were some newspaper columnists who certainly didn't like you. They went after you, and went after you hard. Did that hurt? JE: Honestly? Yes. But, over time, as you mature, you become so callous to it that it doesn't hurt anymore. If anything, the problem goes the other way. In some of my relationships, people will try to criticize me or degrade me or whatever, and it bounces off. I feel strongly enough about myself that I don't hear those criticisms.
I know that people are going to have their opinions, but all I can do is do the best I can with the abilities that God has given me.
5280: But there was a time in this town, where it was clearly known, if you make Elway mad, he won't talk to you. JE: There was a guy I did that with, a guy from a radio station here in town, where the guy was on me from day one. Viciously. And whether it was something he really meant, or whether it was something that he was doing for ratings, I don't know. But at some point you just say, you're going to stop using me. That's where I lose respect, and don't want to deal with someone.
5280: Now that football is over, do you find yourself pulling back from people in public? JE: No, if anything, I've always tried to be very cordial to people when they come up and talk to me. Sure, there are times when I'm with my family or whatever, and it's a little more difficult, but I've always tried to take the time and just say hello.
And you know, I honestly think it takes less time to be nice than it does to be a jerk. When you're a jerk, you usually have to explain to them why you're being a jerk. Sure, there are times, you're getting gas, you just want to veg, but it really is easier just to be nice.
5280: When it's all said and done, what would you like people to know about you? JE: I've just tried to be who John Elway is. In the things I read about myself...

The Capital Of Capitalism
Ever since 1792, bulls and bears together have tripped the light fantastic on Wall Street's sidewalks—and sometimes just tripped
December 1972 | Volume 24, Issue 1
Before the war not many people outside the half-dozen major United States cities were interested in securities. When the firm of Jay Cooke of Philadelphia took over the marketing of northern war bonds, Cooke organized a campaign that financed the war, extolling the wisdom of investing all across the country. "A national debt is a national blessing" was oneof his mottos. The resulting widespread ownership of bonds stimulated an interest in the securities market that could be translated into buy and sell orders by means of the new network of telegraph lines. By the time the English statesman James Bryce took a hard look at the American commonwealth in 1888, he was impressed with "the prevalence of the habit of speculation." "There are times," he wrote, "when the whole community, not merely city people but also storekeepers in country towns, even farmers, even domestic servants, interest themselves actively in share speculations."
The expanding network of railroads required capital from the public, either directly or indirectly through city- and state-endorsed bond issues. The men interested in railroad financing soon discovered the value of being insiders. Corporate officers in command of the voting stock could issue bonds for practically everything—stations, land damages, locomotives, and particularly track construction. Forming a separate construction company, railroad tycoons could award themselves the construction contract and pay themselves off with bonds and stock far beyond the value of the track mileage they built. They could then resell the securities to the public at a profit.
Constructing track across prairies and mountains was risky, and to a certain extent the railroad builders were justified in capitalizing expectations when commerce and industry were expanding. But many railways were built before there was enough traffic to pay the interest charges on their heavy debts. The stock was so far down the line of claims on the profits that it had no known value, merely serving as a vehicle for bull or bear operations and as the means by which control could be wrestled back and forth among contending groups. Jay Gould, presiding over the Erie Railroad, was once asked by a government investigating committee what the value of Erie common stock really was. He replied, "There is no intrinsic value to it probably; it is speculated in here and in London and it has that value."
States and cities exerted considerable control over the railroads by the granting of charters and financial assistance. Legislators soon found out that this influence could be converted to cash. Railroad tycoons paid off and occasionally got the better of the legislators by tricks of their own. Commodore Vanderbilt scored twice. On the first occasion he wanted New York City's permission to extend his Harlem Railway, which in 1863 ran in to Union Square from the north, right on down Broadway to the Battery. The city councilmen figured that they would approve the idea, all the while taking short positions in Harlem stock. Then they would revoke the permit, the stock would plummet, and they would reap profits. They carried out the plan, but the Commodore was a hard man to beat. Tipped off, he began buying Harlem and finally cornered the stock. The distressed councilmen saw the price run up from seventy-five dollars to $179 and had to settle their contracts at a big loss. A year later the state legislators tried the same thing. Charging that the city did not have authority to grant the extension, they pretended to favor a bill introduced with the necessary permission. They then double-crossed Vanderbilt by defeating the bill after selling the stock short. Vanderbilt was furious. Buying up all the Harlem stock in sight, he ended up owning on paper 27,000 more shares than actually existed. He wanted to make the legislators pay a thousand dollars per share to cover their commitments, but was persuaded, for the sake of future relations, to allow them to settle at $285. He liked to say that he had forced them to flee Albany without paying their board bills.
The ethics of Wall Street made a distinction between unscrupulous deals that could be draped with some legality and those that their perpetrators couldn't or didn't bother to legitimatize. Vanderbilt and Gould could always find a judge willing to grant an injunction or issue a restraining order, even in the middle of the night. When they wanted a law legalizing some trick, such as an overissue of stock, they simply went up to Albany loaded with cash, and legislators stood around the halls arguing about how much to hold out for. When the matter was settled, everyone got another chance at the pot. But decamping to Canada with funds fleeced from the public was considered as disgraceful as quitting a poker game while you were ahead.
While Commodore Vanderbilt had his eccentricities—he was a believer in spiritualism and set two spiritualist sisters up as Wall Street brokers —he was not a lovable character. He had a terrible temper. "Jubilee Jim" Fisk, however, another famous market operator of the sixties, delighted all New York. Fat, good-natured, freehanded, he was more like a character out of comic opera than a master of capital. After he bought the Narragansett Steamship Company and refurbished its vessels with a canary in every stateroom, he felt entitled to wear a gaudy "admiral's" uniform. As a colonel in the National Guard he paraded around the streets in a gorgeous military costume—"the Mushroom Mars," one newspaper called him.

Apparently, If Your Domain Has 'Dirt' In The Name, Section 230 Safe Harbors Don't Apply (Uh Oh...)
from the hey,-wait-a-second... dept
The specific lawsuit involved a Bengals cheerleader/school teacher, who wasn't happy with the pictures of her posted to the website... along with the comments made about her (such as suggesting she had slept with the entire football team). As we noted at the time, if this content is user generated -- it's a clear situation where the case should be dismissed over Section 230's safe harbors (which put the liability on the actual content creator, rather than the middlemen third parties). In this case, the actions that might reach the level of defamation clearly came from the user, not the site owner. Previous rulings in other districts have even made it clear that sites that merely pass along content created by someone else -- even if it involves a moderator "choosing" what gets displayed -- do not lose the basic protections. So this case should have been a slam dunk.
Instead... it appears that the judge has gone in the other direction, creating really convoluted arguments to claim that Section 230 does not apply. As Eric Goldman explains, there are serious problems with this ruling:
The court's discussion is short, yet it's surprisingly scattered. Pages 8-10 run through a gamut of gripes about thedirty's practices and statements, but the judge doesn't articulate the relevance of these facts (other than providing evidence of the judge's animus towards thedirty). Because the judge does a poor job connecting the facts to his adopted legal standard, we aren't sure exactly what thedirty did to foreclose the 230 immunityThe ruling, which is attached below, really is that bizarre. The judge twists and turns himself into contortions to try to come up with a reason to say that TheDirty.com is liable for comments made on the site. The simplest explanation, as Eric noted, is that the judge just didn't like the kind of site that TheDirty.com is (and from a quick glance, remains). The key to the judge's ruling is in trying to apply the infamous Roomates.com case. The problem, however, is that the case doesn't fit well. Roommates.com lost not because the site encouraged some actions against the law, but because its menu choices were a part of the content creation, and those menu choices, themselves, directly violated the Fair Housing Act.
It's a huge stretch to go from there to claiming that a site where mean things are celebrated is no longer protected via Section 230's safe harbors. But that's what the judge did.
And, in part, it gets really scary for me, personally, because the judge declares -- multiple times -- that the use of the word "dirt" in a domain name means that you are encouraging defamation:
First, the name of the site in and of itself encourages the posting only of "dirt," that is material which is potentially defamatory or an invasion of the subject's privacy.Of course, there's absolutely nothing in Section 230 that suggests that if a judge doesn't like your name -- or falsely assumes that any website with the word "dirt" in the name is up to no good -- he can ignore Section 230's important protections. Like Eric suggested, it would be good if there's an appeal here, because it seems to go against pretty much any other Section 230 ruling. Not liking a site is simply not a reason to ignore those important safe harbors...
And, just to summarize, here are the basics. The site, TheDirty.com posted a user submission, with a one-sentence comment on it. That submission included a cheerleader/teacher, who didn't like her photos being widely available. Somewhere along the way the legal shenanigans began. Remember, the contents of the post itself may be defamatory -- but that, alone, should not make the site liable. It could very well make the original submitter liable, but the cheerleader doesn't seem to want to go that route of actually suing those who did the bad thing. So, instead, the site now faces a lot of liability... because a judge thinks that having "dirt" in your domain name must mean that you're seeking out something bad.
For reasons beyond just the standard defenses of Section 230, this is pretty bizarre and slightly terrifying. I certainly don't encourage the submission of defamatory information. But because I have "dirt" in my domain name, does that mean I should be worried too?

Jane moaned when she felt John's mouth on her pussy, arching her back as she felt his tongue sliding up into her. Susan noticed with surprise that her father was standing next to her, watching in fascination as his wife had her pussy eaten publicly by a strange man. Then John got to his feet, his erect cock standing out in front of him. As Susan watched with held breath, he rubbed the head of his cock in Jane's pussy, then leaned forward, easily sliding his cock into her. As everyone watched, John began to fuck Jane, his cock working in and out of her pussy.
"Isn't this wonderful," Susan heard Alice whisper in her ear.
"Yeah, it is," Susan agreed, watching as John fucked her mother.
"And look at your father," Alice said. "I just sucked his cock and look at him."
Looking at her father, Susan could see that his cock was hard and sticking out in front of him as he watched his wife getting fucked in front of everyone. She could see that he was getting off on it. Then seeing that John was getting worked up and knowing that he was ready to cum, Susan moved over next to him and whispered in his ear as he continued to fuck her mother. Smiling, he nodded at her when she finished whispering.
John continued to fuck Jane, his cock sluicing in and out of her juicy pussy as everyone watched. Even Don had a huge erection as he watched his wife's pussy being filled by a strange cock. Then suddenly John's breathing got ragged as his balls built towards orgasm. Then he pulled his cock from Jane's pussy, cum shooting from the end of it. Susan fell to her knees and opened her mouth, letting the stream of cum shoot into her throat before enveloping John's cock in her mouth, sucking on the slimy gooeyness as John's balls continued to pump cum into her mouth.
When Susan finished sucking John's cock, she turned and buried her face in her mother's swampy pussy, sucking the cum from her hole. Jane groaned when she felt Susan's mouth fasten on her pussy, not knowing it was Susan. When she finished sucking her mother's pussy, Susan got to her feet, her face smeared with cum as she smiled at everyone.
Then suddenly Billy stepped forward and speared Jane's pussy with his cock, instantly penetrating her pussy and burying his cock deep inside of her. Jane just moaned when she felt her pussy again filled with cock, rotating her hips and pressing back against the cock buried deep in her pussy. Susan watched with delight on her face as Billy fucked her mother. Even though Jane was more experienced than Susan, she knew that her mother had to be feeling something of what she had felt when everyone fucked her only an hour ago.
Jane was groaning as she began to cum as Billy's cock sloshed in her pussy. Susan was fascinated watching Billy's cock slide in and out of her mother's pussy. Soon enough Billy groaned as he felt his balls explode. Susan quickly grabbed his cock and pulled it from her mother's pussy, sucking it into her mouth as jets of cum shot into her throat. Susan loved the taste of Billy's cock as she sucked the combined cum of her mother and him from his cock.
As she released Billy's cock she could see that Bob was taking his place and burying his cock in her mother. Turning to see her father's face, she saw that Bunny was on her knees in front of him sucking his cock. Susan could tell by the look in his eyes that he was past caring about anything. And from the sounds of her mother's moans, she was too.
So Bob fucked Jane like crazy until he came. And again Susan sucked his cum-spurting cock into her mouth and swallowed all of his cum. Then she turned to her mother and began to suck her swampy pussy. Susan could both see and feel how swollen her mother's pussy had become from getting fucked as she sucked on her lips, her clit, snaking her tongue up into her hole. Jane just moaned as she came again and again while her daughter sucked her pussy.
Then Susan felt a cock brush against the side of her face. Looking to her left, she saw that it was Ed's cock and that it was very hard. And big. It looked so huge to her. She couldn't believe that just an hour ago that it had been deep inside of her pussy. Susan moved aside to make room for Ed.
"Hi, Jane," Ed said, rubbing his cock in her pussy. "I was hoping I'd get a chance for some more of this. Do you mind?"
In answer Jane just moaned as she pressed back against his cock as it was resting at the entrance to her pussy. Slowly inch after inch of Ed's cock slid into Jane's pussy. It was fascinating to see something that big disappear into something that looked so small. Slowly Ed began to glide his cock in and out of Jane's pussy. Her swollen pussy lips clung to the shaft of his cock each time he pulled back.
Susan loved seeing Ed's cock in her mother's pussy again. There was something so sexy about something that big plunging in and out of her seemingly small pussy. Glancing over at her father, Susan saw that he was watching Jane get fucked with great interest. He was obviously turned on by it, as his cock was again hard, even after Alice had sucked him. Then Susan noticed Jimmy standing just behind their father. She could see by his hard cock and the look on his face that he was totally turned on watching their mother get fucked right out in the open in front of everyone. By everyone.
Susan moved over next to Jimmy, leaning her body into his as she whispered in his ear. He started to move away after a moment, but Susan reached between his legs and grabbed him by the balls, holding him captive. She whispered in his ear some more and then Jimmy slowly nodded his head, Susan now massaging his cock in her hand.
Going back over to kneel next to where Ed's cock was still moving in and out of Jane's pussy, Susan looked at Jimmy and smiled. Then Ed began to groan and Susan was pulling his cock from her mother's pussy and sucking it into her mouth. Ed groaned one more time and then exploded in Susan's mouth, his thick jets of cum shooting into her throat. Susan sucked and slurped and gulped as Ed's cock filled her mouth with cum. Again she noticed how much she liked the taste of her mother's pussy on a cock.
When she finished sucking Ed's cock, everyone was applauding. Susan smiled, looked hard at Jimmy, then turned and began to again suck her mother's just-fucked pussy. She was sucking on the juices that filled her mother's pussy when she felt someone standing next to her. Without even looking, Susan moved to the side to make room for Jimmy. She heard everyone gasp as they realized what he was intending and Susan grabbed his cock and placed it at the entrance to Jane's hole.
Jimmy plunged forward, his cock easily swallowed up in his mother's pussy. Jane moaned softly as she felt yet another cock invade her, gently swiveling her hips as her son began to fuck her. Susan was delighted when Jimmy began to fuck their mother. It was even more fun to her because she knew her mother had no idea who it was that was fucking her. She was just glued to the lounge, face down, her ass up in the air, just waiting for a cock.
Looking at her father she could see that his eyes had narrowed as he watched his teenage son fuck his wife. Without hesitating, Susan moved over to her father and dropped to her knees in front of him, opening her mouth and sucking his hard cock in. Don looked down at her as she began to suck on his cock, staring for a minute. Then he patted her on the head as she sucked him, smiling.
Everyone was watching in disbelief as Jimmy fucked his mother and Susan sucked her father. This was a show out of the wildest of imaginations. Jimmy was slamming his cock in and out of his mother's pussy while Susan sucked her father's cock, trying to force more and more of it down her throat as she sucked him.
Then suddenly Susan stopped sucking her father's cock, letting it fall from her mouth. Rising to her feet and grabbing him by the cock, Susan pulled him towards where Jimmy was fucking Jane. Going to one side, still holding her father by the cock, Susan lay across her mother's ass, her ass pointed at her father. She squeezed his cock hard as she lay across her mother.
"Fuck me, dad, fuck me," Susan implored him, her bald pussy pointing at him. "Fuck me hard," she said, "like Jimmy's doing to mom."
When Don heard this his eyes widened and a look hard to describe crossed his face. Taking his cock in his own hand, Don rubbed the head of it between Susan's pouting pussy lips. Then with almost no preparation at all he slammed himself all the way into her. Susan gasped at the violence of his penetration then quickly succumbed to the sensations of her father's cock sliding in and out of her pussy. She couldn't believe how good it felt. She could feel every time Jimmy slammed into their mother and soon it felt like she was getting fucked by two people at once.
Finally Jimmy began to groan as he felt his orgasm approach. Grabbing his cock and pulling it from their mother's pussy, Susan pulled Jimmy around to the side of the chaise lounge and began to suck his cock while her father continued to fuck her from behind. Again she savored the taste of her mother's pussy on a cock. And she loved Jimmy's cock. She loved the way it felt as it slid into her mouth and down into her throat. It was just perfect, so smooth and hard. She felt his cock thicken as his balls exploded and she eagerly gulped at the cum that filled her mouth, swallowing all of it while her father continued to fuck her from behind.
Then she felt her father's cock pull from her pussy, leaving her feel incomplete. Then she felt the head of his cock pressing against her asshole. Susan gasped around Jimmy's cock as she realized that her father was going to fuck her in the ass. She had never seen that done before and had no idea what to expect.
Sucking on Jimmy's cock, she felt herself unconsciously resisting as her father's cock continued to press against her rosebud. She heard a gasp as someone saw what was happening and was aware of everyone crowding around again. Trying to relax, Susan suddenly felt as though she were splitting in two as her father's cock slipped two or three inches into her ass.
She could hear everyone murmuring as she felt her father's cock throbbing in her ass. It was a strange but not unpleasant feeling. Then she felt him begin to press into her. She could tell his cock was slowly sliding up into her ass. She still felt as though she were splitting in two but it wasn't so bad that she couldn't ignore it.
Then she felt her father's thighs press against hers and she knew that his cock was all the way inside her ass. She was suddenly aware that Jimmy's cock was no longer in her mouth. He had moved around to watch his father fuck her in the ass. Susan couldn't believe what it felt like when her father began to slide his cock in and out of her ass. It filled her even more than it had in her pussy. As it continued to plumb the depths of her bowels Susan felt herself begin to cum for the first time, a body-wrenching orgasm that had her writhing on the end of her father's cock as she lay across her mother's body.
Then Don began to pant, and then groan as he approached orgasm, his cock never slowing down as it slid in and out of his daughter's ass. Finally he cried out and slammed his cock as deep as he could into Susan's ass, completely burying himself as his balls exploded, cum shooting deep inside her bowels. Susan could feel her father's cock expand and then explode. She imagined that she could feel the cum spurting against her insides as her father's cock pulsed inside of her as it shot more and more cum into her.
Finally Don's balls stopped spasming and his cock stopped spurting. He just stood there with his cock buried in his daughter's ass, a group of total strangers standing around watching, approving. Slowly he stepped back, his cock sliding from Susan's ass, followed by a thin dribble of cum that slid down into her pussy. Alice immediately dove into Susan's ass, sucking and slurping at the cum that dribbled from inside of her and sucking and licking her pussy. When she finished sucking her clean Alice helped Susan to her very shaky feet.
"Oh, dad, that was great," Susan said, wrapping her arms around her father and hugging him. "I never knew anything could be so much fun. Did you like fucking me? Did it feel good?" she asked, looking up at him.
"It reminded me of your mother sixteen years ago," Don said, smiling at her. "Still the best I've ever had."
"Oh, dad, you're so sweet. Now I really know why mom married you, don't I?" Susan said with a laugh.
"What are you talking about?" they heard a groggy Jane ask as she struggled to her feet. "What's going on?"
"Oh, Jane, you are so funny," Alice said as she moved next to Don, and arm around his waist and one around Susan's. While you were letting everyone aboard ship fuck your all too inviting pussy, including your son, I might add, Susan here sucked Don's cock for a bit and then he fucked her while she was laying across your back. But then it got really good when he fucked her in the ass while Jimmy was still fucking your pussy."
"You've got to be kidding," Jane replied, staggered by what she had just heard.
"Hell, it didn't seem like you cared about anything but another cock in your twat," Alice said. "I'm jealous. I expect to get gang-banged tomorrow night or I'll be very disappointed. Had you ever done that before?"
"Not really," Jane answered. "Just once in college with Don and a friend of his. I think Don fucked me and I sucked his friend."
"Well, Susan's a chip off the old block," Alice said.
"Dad said I reminded him of you," Susan said, smiling at her mother. "He said you were still the sweetest pussy he had ever fucked."
"You really did?" Jane asked, looking at her daughter first, then her husband.
"Yeah," Susan said, actually blushing.
"In the ass, Don?" Jane asked her husband. "You had to do that?"
"I loved it, mom," Susan said. "I had no idea. You like it that way?"
"It's her favorite," Don answered. "Always has been."
"I like it that way too," Alice agreed. "But it turns a lot of people off."
"I thought it was strange but nice," Susan said. "I think I'd like to see what it felt like having a cock in both places at once."
"It's even better if you have one to suck at the same time," Alice said. "That way no hole goes to waste."
"I'd love to fuck your ass," Ed said, overhearing their conversation. "But only if you didn't mind and of course Don didn't mind."
"I want your cock in me," Alice said. "I want you to fuck me and I want you to fuck me in the ass. That cock of yours is gorgeous."
"Well, let's see what Jane has to say first," Ed said.
"Go ahead, honey," Don said. "You know you'd love it."
"I'm tired," Jane said, shaking her head. "This has been too much for me."
"Maybe later," Ed said, smiling at her.
"Maybe later," Jane agreed, nodding her head as she stared at his huge cock. "But I'm going to bed now."
"Me too," Susan said. "I'm beat. Come on, Jimmy."
"Now, I want you two to behave," Jane said.
"Oh, mom," Susan laughed as they made their way down to their cabins.

Great story! Pretty well unbelievable for real life but still very entertaining and arousing. At least the grammar and spelling were very good (not like some of the comments through the chapters: sometimes impossible to make out what was being written)

Front Runners List: Click here to see list completion progress by climbers that log their climbs using Peakbagger.com.
Compare Climbers: Click here to compare ascents of up to 5 climbers working on this list.
This list shows the peak in each European country with the greatest topographic prominence. As it turns out, for well over half of these countries (35 of 54, or 65%) the highest and most prominent peaks are the same. The remaining 19 peaks provide some good alternate climbs in their respective nations.
There is no consensus as to what nations or peaks constitute a European country high point list, and this site lists four flavors of that well-known pursuit. Not wanting to recreate all that again for the most-prominent list for Europe, the approach here is to be very inclusive and list all most-prominent peaks for all nations and dependencies that are European and semi-European, including all Caucasus region nations, Norwegian Arctic territories, and mid-Atlantic Island highpoints for Iberian nations.
The Vatican City is left off this list, since any notion of prominence has disappeared under centuries of urbanization.
Thanks to Lee Newton, who did the research on the non-high points on this list and made its publication here possible.

Strings are godly, you can hear the vibrato from the fingers and the resin layering against the string, with each bow stroke clearly defined and you get a real sense of the player digging into the string. Voices are pretty awesome too, almost a lush-like quality to it.

I like the NFL for their desire to continually make football better. I am amazed how a defender can line up off sides, but then the offensive lineman will hold him to prevent him from hitting his quarterback. The result is offsetting fouls and replay the down. That's not right.
This rule should be changed so that if the second foul was a result of the other team committing a foul, the first team should be the only one penalized. Therefore if the defensive lineman lines up off sides, his team is penalized 5 yards regardless if the offensive lineman holds him after.
One might argue that this rule change would basically give the offensive lineman in this situation, the right to commit a foul. So what! It would keep both sides from committing as many stupid fouls and slowing up the game replaying downs. This rule would not work in all situations though.
In situations where a player throws a punch at another player, both teams should be penalized if the other player throws a punch as well. Therefore this rule change would work in certain situations and not in more flagrant fouls.

Defining a project
This page tells you how to add a new project, configure an existing project or convert an existing project to another project type.
A JIRA project is a collection of issues. Your team could use a JIRA project to coordinate the development of a product, track a project, manage a help desk, and more, depending on your requirements. A JIRA project can also be configured and customized to suit the needs of you and your team.
On this page:
Before you begin
For all of the following procedures, you must be logged in as a user with the JIRA Administrators global permission. A JIRA administrator is able to create projects for all applications installed, but if the administrator does not have application access for that application, they will not be able to view the project after they have created it.
Creating a project
- Click Projects (in header) > Create project.
- Follow the wizard to create the project.
About the project types:
- Depending on which JIRA applications you have installed, you may have more than one project type available.
- Each project type has a specific set of features.
- All users on the JIRA instance will be able to see all projects, but what features they see and what actions they can take are determined by their application access and the project specific permissions.
About shared configurations:
- When you create a new project from a template, that project is created with its own fresh set of schemes. These schemes are:
- a permission scheme
- a notification scheme
- an issue security scheme
- a workflow scheme
- an issue type scheme
- an issue type screen scheme
- a field configuration scheme
- Sometimes you may wish to share schemes among your projects, so that editing one scheme changes that scheme in several projects at once.
- When you are creating a new project, select Create with shared configuration to select an existing project and to use that project's schemes. Note that when you're sharing schemes, any change to the scheme will affect all the projects using that scheme.
About the project details:
- The project key will be used as the prefix of this project's issue keys (e.g. 'TEST-100'). Choose one that is descriptive and easy to type.
- The project lead is a unique project role. Choose the person who manages the project as the project lead. If there is only one user in your JIRA system, the Project Lead will default to that person and this field will not be available.
- If you're creating a project using a project type related to an application you currently do not have access to, JIRA will display a checkbox that will allow you to grant yourself access to that application. This will add you to the default group of that application, and you will count as a user for that license.
Convert a project type
At some point you may wish to convert an existing project to a different project type. For instance, you can convert a JIRA Software project to a JIRA Core project at the end of a JIRA Software evaluation period, or when your team grows. You can only convert to project types of JIRA applications that you have installed. Note that a project administrator may also change the project type.
- Choose > Projects..
- Locate the project that you'd like to change.
- Select Change project type in the Operations column of the project you want to change.
- Follow the wizard to change the project type. Only project types for applications you have installed will be available.
You can review more on project types and what your users will see on the project type and application overview page.
Configuring a project
- Navigate to the administration page for the project by doing either of the following:
- Choose > Projects. Select your project.
- Navigate to the desired project's summary and click the Administration tab.
- Use the tabs on the left to navigate between the different project settings. Read the sections below for a description of each setting.
Project details
Click Edit Project at the top of the Project Summary page and edit the project details as desired. Note the following:
- Editing the project key: This is not a simple task. Read this page before you edit the project key: Editing a project key.
- Using the Wiki Style Renderer in the project description: You can use the Wiki Style Renderer to display rich text (HTML) in your project description.
- Choosing a project avatar: If you don't want to use a project avatar, you can upload a transparent pixel. This effectively loads the transparent pixel, which means you won't see an image.
About project categories:
The project category is not edited in the Edit Project dialog. Instead, click the link next to the Category field (under the project name) on the project Administration page. Categories can be viewed/created via Administration > Projects > Project Categories.
Why are categories useful? JIRA can search for all the issues in a particular project category (e.g. category = "buildeng"
in an advanced search), and can display projects sorted by the project category. A JIRA project can only belong to one category. Please note that a project category is not part of a project hierarchy. Also, JIRA does not support sub-projects or parent projects.
Issue types
JIRA enables you to keep track of different types of things — bugs, tasks, helpdesk tickets, etc — by using different issue types. You can also configure each issue type to act differently, e.g. to follow a different process flow or track different pieces of information.
Click either Issue Types in the left menu or one of the issue types under it, e.g. Bug, Task, Story, etc:
- Issue Types: Click this to configure which issue types apply to this project (choose an issue type scheme or edit the existing scheme). You can also configure the workflow, fields and screens for the issue type in the project, but it is easier to do this by clicking one of the issue types.
- One of the issue types (e.g. Bug, Task, Story): Click this to configure the workflow/screen for the issue type in the project. The workflow screen (Workflow tab) shows the workflow designer. The screen (View tab) shows the screen designer.
Your JIRA issues can follow a process that mirrors your team's practices. A workflow defines the sequence of steps (or statuses) that an issue will follow, e.g. Open, In Progress, Resolved. You can configure how issues will transition between statuses, e.g. who can transition them, under what conditions, and which screen will be displayed for each transition.
- Workflow Scheme — the project's workflow scheme determines which workflows (issue state transitions) apply to issue types in this project.
JIRA allows you to display particular pieces of issue information at particular times, by defining screens. A screen is simply a collection of fields. You can choose which screen to display when an issue is being created, viewed, edited, or transitioned through a particular step in a workflow.
- Screen Scheme — the project's screen scheme determines which screens are displayed for different issue operations (view, edit, create);
OR - Issue Type Screen Scheme — the project's issue type screen scheme determines which screens are displayed for different issue operations (view, edit, create), for different issue types.
JIRA enables you to define field behavior: each field can be required/optional, rich text/plain text, hidden/visible. You define this behavior by using a field configuration.
- Field Configuration Scheme — the project's field configuration scheme determines which field configuration applies to issue types in this project. (A field configuration determines each field's overall visibility, requiredness, formatting (wiki/rich-text or plain) and help-text).
- Application Links (Configure project links) — if you have linked your JIRA instance to other Atlassian applications, like Confluence, FishEye or other JIRA instances, you will be able to link this JIRA project to areas of those applications that contain information relating to your project or team. For example, Confluence spaces, FishEye repositories, JIRA projects (in another JIRA instance), etc. This allows you to take advantage of integration points between these applications. See Using AppLinks to link to other applications for information about application links and project links.
Different people may play different roles in different projects — the same person may be a leader of one project but an observer of another project. JIRA enables you to allocate particular people to specific roles in your project.
- Project Lead — user fulfilling the role of project leader. Used as the 'Default Assignee' (except for JIRA Software projects where it is set to 'Unassigned'), and potentially elsewhere in JIRA (e.g. in permission schemes, notification schemes, issue security schemes and workflows).
- Default Assignee — the user to whom issues in this project are initially assigned when created. Can be either the 'Project Lead' (above), or, if Allow unassigned issues is set to 'On' in JIRA's general configuration, 'Unassigned'. There are also default component assignees.
By default, new projects also have their 'Default Assignee' set to 'Unassigned.' You can change this here if you want to set it to be a specific role, i.e. 'Project Lead.' - Project Roles — members are users/groups who fulfil particular functions for this project. Project roles are used in permission schemes, notification schemes, issue security schemes and workflows.
Issues can be grouped in JIRA by allocating them to versions. For example, if you are using JIRA to manage the development of a product or manage the build of a house, you may want to define different versions to help you track which issues relate to different phases of your product or build (e.g. 1.0, 1.1, 1.2, 2.0, 2.0.1). JIRA can help you manage, release and archive your versions. Versions can also have a Release Date, and will automatically be highlighted as "overdue" if the version is unreleased when this date passes.
- Versions — versions defined in the project. See the version management page for details.
You may want to define various components to categorize and manage different issues. For a software development project, for example, you might define components called "Database", "Usability", "Documentation" (note that issues can belong to more than one component). You can choose a Default Assignee for each component, which is useful if you have different people leading different sub-teams in your project.
- Components — logical groups that this project's issues can belong to. See the component management page for details.
JIRA allows you to control who can access your project, and exactly what they can do (e.g. "Work on Issues", "Comment on Issues", "Assign Issues"), by using project permissions. You can also control access to individual issues by using security levels. You can choose to grant access to specific users, or groups, or roles (note that roles are often the easiest to manage).
- Permission Scheme — the project's permission scheme determines who has permission to view or change issues in this project.
- Issue Security Scheme — the project's issue security scheme determines what visibility levels issues in this project can have.
JIRA can notify the appropriate people when a particular event occurs in your project (e.g. "Issue Created", "Issue Resolved"). You can choose specific people, or groups, or roles to receive email notifications when different events occur. (Note that roles are often the easiest to manage.)
- Notification Scheme — the project's notification scheme determines who receives email notifications of changes to issues in this project.
Email — specifies the 'From' address for emails sent from this project.Only available if an SMTP email server has been configured in JIRA.
Please note, the Default Notification Scheme (shipped with JIRA) is associated with all new projects by default.This means that if you have an outgoing (SMTP) mail server set up, that email notifications will be sent as soon as there is any activity (e.g. issues created) in the new project.
Development tools
The Development tools section is only available on JIRA Software projects, and can only be viewed by JIRA Software users. It gives you an overview of the development tools that are connected and which users can use the integration features between them:
- View permission - This section lists which users can see the development tools integration features (like the Create Branch link) on the view issue screen, as well as other development-related information, like commits, reviews and build information. This ability is controlled by the "View Development Tools" project permission.
- Applications - This section shows which development tools are connected to JIRA via application links and are eligible to use the development tool features in JIRA.
A note about project administrators
A project administrator in JIRA is someone who has the project-specific Administer Projects project permission, but not necessarily the JIRA Administrator global permission.
Without the JIRA Administrator global permission, however, project administrators can do the following:
- Edit the project name
- Edit the project description
- Edit the project avatar image
- Edit the project URL
- Edit the project lead
- Edit project role membership
- Change the project type
- Define project components
- Define project versions
- View, but not select nor edit the project's schemes (notification scheme, permission scheme, etc)
Changing the project category of a JIRA project requires JIRA Administrator global permission.

Can an understanding of the resident alien in the Bible help us reflect today concerning the manner in which we treat "the foreigner" in our society and particular communities? Students in this course will conduct a literary survey of the resident alien (a translation of the Hebrew term ) throughout various biblical law codes. Using a method of inner-biblical criticism and reception history, students will observe contextual changes in meaning of this figure through time. Texts to be studied will range from Ancient Near Eastern law codes, law codes of the Hebrew Bible (Old Testament), along with readings from the Septuagint, the Dead Sea Scrolls, and the New Testament. Lectures, assigned readings involving both biblical texts and secondary literature, and class discussion. Course evaluation: one book review (to be submitted at the first class), class participation, student presentation, and major paper. Prerequisite: Introduction to Old Testament I or permission of the instructor.

Clicky for my crappy profile.
And sorry, I'm too lazy to figure out the username thing.

Im just cuious, before I do make an account on there, is it really worth it? Is it just full of a buncha teenagers trying to hook up with one another? Im curious.
Posted 08 May 2005 - 05:39 AM
I dunno about the teenager part because a lot of my friends (there and Friendster) aren't teenagers.
I generally just stick to adding people I know or I know where they're associating me from (i.e. particular websites). I'd never add a random person, or stuff like that, you always have the option of blocking/deleting/ignoring.
Posted 08 May 2005 - 01:37 PM
And as for the whole "teenagers using it to try and hook up with 8543985639 people" ... I know I definitely don't use it for that. It's nice to meet new people through; join a few groups, learn some cool stuff ... Keep in contact with people, watch your friends list grow ^______^;;
And it's always fun making your profile look all awesome. *raises hand* Mine is le shiz.

Dematerialisation of consumption: a win-win strategy?
A dematerialisation of the economy can provide a crucial contribution toward sustainable devel-opment. It can take place in the production sphere through technological change or in the con-sumption sphere through altered consumer behaviour. This paper focuses on the second case, a shift of expenditure from material consumption (e.g. manufactured products) to non-material consumption (e.g. services). Since all production requires material, an input-output model is used to account for indirect material use. The model features post-Keynesian macroeconomic founda-tions, which make it possible to study the effects of altered consumption patterns on total con-sumption, output, and income distribution. The empirical application for the case of Germany shows that a dematerialisation of consumption might be considered a win-win strategy from an ecological and economic viewpoint. However, its effects on the distribution of income and inter-national trade may be problematic.

Last week, our advertising department included its annual "Taste of the Season" cookbook in Wednesday's issue of the paper. A lot of readers assume that because it's full of recipes, it came from me.
I actually have nothing to do with it, but I often end up fielding calls from readers who have questions about recipes. (For example, on Page 8G, the recipe for Apple Nut Bundt Cake omits 3 cups of all-purpose flour from the list of ingredients.)
As I was perusing the cookbook last week, I noticed a lot of familiar recipes, like sausage balls, Mexican cornbread, hash brown potato casserole, and red velvet cake.
Recipes like these often appear in community and church cookbooks, largely because they're so good. That's the thing about some recipes: They just need repeating for those who missed them the first time.
Here's a recipe that came from Katherine Hardin of Starkville, who was featured as a Cook of the Week last December. I made this recipe once in January and again this past Saturday night. If you like mushrooms, this recipe will not disappoint.
I served it with an autumn salad of fresh greens, a diced green apple, crumbled bacon, sliced purple onion rings, cran-raisins, toasted pecans and Feta cheese, and some focaccia bread.
Creamy Wild Rice-and-Mushroom Soup
1 ounce dried mushrooms
6 cups chicken broth, divided
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
6 carrots, coarsely chopped
1 onion, coarsely chopped
2 tablespoons fresh sage, chopped
Salt and pepper to taste
1 box Uncle Ben's long grain and wild rice mix
8 ounces white mushrooms, sliced
2 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
1⁄2 cup heavy cream
Using a food processor, soak the dried mushrooms in 1 cup chicken broth for 10 minutes. Process until coarsely chopped.
In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium high heat. Add the carrots, onion, and sage. Cook, stirring, until crisp tender, about 5 minutes. Add the rehydrated mushroom mixture and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Season with salt and pepper.
Stir in the remaining 5 cups broth, the rice mix and the sliced mushrooms and bring to a boil. Add the chicken breast, lower the heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the rice is tender and the chicken breast is cooked through, about 25 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a plate and chop or shred; return to the pot. Stir in the heavy cream; season again with salt and pepper and simmer for about 5 minutes.
Makes 8 servings.

Mitch Ross made a surprise appearance in New Orleans on Friday, apologizing to all the athletes that he and his supplement firm, S.W.A.T.S., have hurt this week.
Except now, he may need to issue another apology, to Steve Weatherford. In the latest chapter of the strangest saga of Super Bowl week, Ross — wearing a sleeveless shirt and showcasing his now-infamous deer antler spray — held an impromptu press conference. And midway through, he claimed he provided Weatherford, the Giants' punter, with "performance chips," unique performance-boosting holograms.
Weatherford denied Ross' off-the-wall claims and added that he has "contacted legal counsel regarding his (Ross') slanderous statements."
"I've never even met Mitch Ross," Weatherford told the Daily News. "Total bogus. This guy is scrounging for something."
Ross has been scrounging all week, milking the 15 minutes of fame provided by this week's Sports Illustrated profile of S.W.A.T.S. (Sports With Alternatives to Steroids) in which Ross claimed to have supplied deer antler spray (which includes a banned substance, IGF-1) and chips to Ravens linebacker Ray Lewis and the Alabama and LSU football teams, among others. Lewis blasted Ross on Wednesday.
All week, Ross and partner Christopher Key have returned calls and done radio interviews, invaluable exposure for their company. And here Ross was again.

Police Shrewsbury Marathon run is in memory of Georgia Williams
Dozens of police officers will compete in this weekend's inaugural Shrewsbury Marathon to raise funds for the charity set up in memory of Telford teenager Georgia Williams.
West Mercia Police's deputy chief constable Simon Chesterman will lead a team of up to 27 colleagues round the gruelling course on Sunday to raise funds for the Georgia Williams Trust.
The Bobbies will wear a specially made blue running kit, in tribute to one of Georgia's favourite colours, bearing a motif and photograph of the 17-year-old.
About 2,500 runners will take part in the event from 9am and the county police officers will complete either the full or half marathon with Georgia's parents Steve and Lynnette due to cheer them on from the start line.
Inspector Richard Langton, chairman of the Georgia Williams Trust, said he had already completed three marathon events this year but was disappointed to be missing Sunday's race due to a foot injury.
"I'm hoping to run the London Marathon next year and that will be my tribute to Georgia but we've got about 27 police officers on board to run on Sunday now – they're all coming out of the woodwork and it should be a great day," he said.
"We will all be wearing a blue running kit with a motif and photograph of Georgia in memory of her and it would be fantastic if people could look out for us and cheer the team on."
Anyone who wishes to donate to Georgia's fund can call the police's non emergency 101 number and ask for Inspector Langton.

Watch Enemies of the People on PBS. See more from POV.
It's four weeks until Halloween, the only night of the year when it really makes sense for evening-dressed reporters to ask, "Who are you wearing?"
— Thanks to presentations like "POV: Enemies of the People" (above), PBS topped all networks with nine wins at Monday's News and Documentary Emmy Awards, with ABC and CBS each scoring seven.
— The latest from the Oct. 22 Hollywood Awards: Amy Adams to be given the supporting actress honor, Robert De Niro the supporting actor kudo, Dylan Tichenor the editor award and "Argo" the ensemble acting prize.
— "Promised Land" star and co-scribe Matt Damon, "Silver Linings Playbook" director David O. Russell and Participant Media founder Jeff Skoll will receive career tributes at IFP's Gotham Independent Film Awards on Nov. 26.
— The Rome Film Festival will present the Vanity Fair International Award for Cinematic Excellence to Dreamworks' "Rise of the Guardians," which is scheduled for a Nov. 21 release. Chris Pine, Alec Baldwin, Jude Law, Isla Fisher and Hugh Jackman star in the Peter Ramsey-directed pic, written by David Lindsay-Abaire.
— The SAG Awards have been honored for the fourth year in a row with the Environmental Media Association's Green Seal, "recognizing a production's outstanding efforts to implement sustainable initiatives and promote environmental awareness."
– - The 16th annual Emerging Cinematographer Awards were held Sunday. Honorees were previously announced.
— The Feb. 17 Streamy Awards "honoring excellence in original online video programming and those who create it" are taking submissions from fans, with an Oct. 15 deadline. Past winners include Felicia Day, Joss Whedon, William Shatner, Rosario Dawson, Alex Albrecht, Zadi Diaz, Jane Espenson, Neil Patrick Harris, Paul Rudd, Shane Dawson and Ronald D. Moore.
— The 2013 MTV Movie Awards will take place April 14, moving up from June.
— This isn't particularly awards-related, but I thought this comment from John Mellencamp about the movie "Jack & Diane" was noteworthy.
"You don't hear my song in the film and I played no part in suggesting or offering this title," Mellencamp said. "It's most apparent that the lead characters were named with the hope that the familiar title might resonate in some people's minds. I guess that's OK to do, strictly from a legal perspective, but riding on someone else's coattails and having a moral compass is left up to each individual."

Google has decided to release as open source several of its key application development tools, hoping that they will prove useful for external programmers to build faster Web applications.
Google has used the tools in some of its most popular Web applications, including Gmail, Google Docs and Google Maps, said Amit Agarwal, a Google product manager.
"By enabling and allowing developers to use the very same tools that Google uses, we hope that they can not only build rich applications but also make the Web really, really fast. That's our primary motive in getting these tools outside to the global community," he said.
The tools include Closure Compiler, which streamlines, optimizes and consolidates Javascript code to make it run faster and more efficiently, increasing the chances that the application will perform well even for users with slow connections, the company announced Thursday.
"It has served as the standard Javascript library for pretty much any large, public Web application that Google is serving today," Agarwal said. "It's very broad and comprehensive, well-tested, and very modular."
Google is also making available Closure Templates, designed to automate the dynamic creation of HTML.
These templates can be used within Javascript in client machines or in Java on servers.

Three office buildings in Mission Viejo and Newport Beach have sold in two transactions that, combined, industry observers valued at more than $90 million as investor demand for Orange County commercial properties heats up.
The sales to large national investors are a sign that the county's office market is recovering from the drubbing it took after the mortgage industry began to contract in 2007, said real estate broker Ryan Gallagher of HFF.
Before that, lenders such as New Century Financial Corp. of Irvine were among the region's largest occupiers of office space. New Century's 2007 collapse was one of several contributors to an overabundance of space on the market that pushed down rents for years.

"In the last real estate cycle we had the perfect storm of the subprime meltdown, a lot of new construction coming online and then the national recession," Ryan said. "This time we have a very balanced recovery from a tenant perspective."
Growing industries in Orange County include financial services, technology, biotechnology and healthcare, he said. The mortgage industry has found its footing but is no longer the main driver of the office market.
The recently sold properties are in Mission Viejo and Newport Beach, according to HFF, which helped arrange both sales.
Mission Ridge, a two-building office complex in Mission Viejo completed in 2000, was sold by Prudential Real Estate Investors. The buyer was Cornerstone Real Estate Advisers, a Hartford, Conn., subsidiary of Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance Co.
Offices in the four-story, 231,000-square-foot Mission Ridge complex near the 5 Freeway are leased to such tenants as computer security company McAfee, Pulte Homes, Wells Fargo and Charles Schwab, HFF said
The other sale was of Newport Plaza, an office building at 895 Dove St. just south of John Wayne Airport. The 104,500-square-foot building, also completed in 2000, is the headquarters of law firm Newmeyer & Dillon.
A fund managed by investment firm Goldman Sachs Asset Management of New York bought Newport Plaza from Equity Office of Chicago.
Terms of the sales were not disclosed, but experts familiar with the Orange County market valued the Mission Ridge deal in the mid-$50-million range and the Newport Plaza sale at close to $40 million.
Office vacancy in the John Wayne Airport area was 15% at the end of the second quarter, down from 17% from the middle of 2012, according to Cushman & Wakefield. Average rents rose slightly.
