Configure Protected Voice Mail from authenticated callers
You can configure Unified Messaging to answer an incoming call, and then determine whether it will apply protection to voice mail messages by using encryption. When a voice message is protected:
The message is marked as Private in Microsoft Outlook and Outlook Web App.
The voice message can be opened only by the intended recipient of the voice message.
The recipient can reply to the voice message, but can't forward it to someone who wasn't included on the original voice message.
This setting applies to voice messages sent to UM-enabled users when they don't answer their phone. This setting also applies when callers sign in to their mailbox using Outlook Voice Access, and then create and send a voice message.
For additional management tasks related to Protected Voice Mail procedures, see Protected Voice Mail procedures.
What do you need to know before you begin?
Estimated time to complete: Less than 1 minute.
You need to be assigned permissions before you can perform this procedure or procedures. To see what permissions you need, see the "UM mailbox policies" entry in the Unified Messaging Permissions topic.

Do you have a drill press, hand held drill (up to 1500-2000 rpm), angle grinder, and a bench grinder? You will need a hook and pick set, steel brushes, and some MIG anti-splatter spray; if you don't have them already.
You will prolly need an Oxy-Acetylene torch for this project. Gas-welding sheet metal make much nicer and cleaner welds. They make it easier to cut parts out and cut parts off. We could build a custom baffeled fuel tank for the front of the car with one.

The Margarets (Gollancz SF)
The Margarets marks the long-awaited return of one of the most respected authors in the sf community; a writer who has earned accolades and the admiration of every true aficionado of bold, brilliant, risk-taking speculative fiction. Sheri S. Tepper dazzles yet again with a powerful tale of ingenious survival and strange destiny.
The only human child living in a human work colony on the Martian satellite Phobos, little Margaret Bain has devised a system for keeping the suffocating demons of boredom and loneliness at bay: She invents six imaginary companions, each an extension of her own personality, to play with. When the unproductive Phobos project is shut down, and after Margaret is forced to return to Earth with her parents, the child's other selves are lost to her. But they are not gone. Left behind, each one flourishes—refining its own persona, acquiring its own history—before ultimately dispersing to far-flung destinations throughout the universe.
On a near-barren homeworld denuded by thoughtless-ness and chemistry, Margaret grows to adulthood and marries, despite the seemingly utter hopelessness of humanity's future. The Earth is so impoverished that its inhabitants must import water and other basic necessities of life—trading the only viable product the planet has left to offer . . . slaves.
The time will come when Margaret must leave this world as well, expelled as part of a desperate survival plan millennia in the making—an astonishing scheme that will require her to gather together the many Margarets who are now scattered throughout the galaxy.
The creator of the Margarets must now bring all her selves home . . . or watch her race perish.

LONDON (Reuters) - Britain's Prince Harry will tour the United States for six days in May, his office said on Monday, his first visit since he was pictured naked while partying at a Las Vegas hotel last summer.
The prince, the third-in-line to the British throne, will use his visit to show support for both wounded U.S. and British military personnel and promote his charities, as well as undertake official duties on behalf of the government.
"Although a prince, Harry is also an operational soldier - indeed a soldier's soldier," said his private secretary Jamie Lowther-Pinkerton said.
"A recurring theme is to help recognize and bring the spotlight onto the work being done to help these outstanding men and women."
Queen Elizabeth's 28-year-old grandson returned in January after 20 weeks with the British army in Afghanistan where he was a gunner in Apache attack helicopters. He has become heavily involved in promoting charities which help those wounded in action.
Harry's U.S. tour will begin in Washington, DC, on May 9 where he will visit the Arlington National Cemetery to pay respects to those killed in recent conflicts.
He will also attend the opening of the Warrior Games in Colorado Springs where wounded servicemen and women compete in Paralympic-style competitions, appear at events in Denver, New York, and Connecticut, and visit people affected by Hurricane Sandy in New Jersey before the tour concludes on May 15.
The easy-going prince has become one of the most popular members of the British royal family, and like his elder brother William and his wife Kate, his personal life attracts global interest.
Harry's last visit to the United States, a private holiday to Las Vegas last August to relax before his Afghan assignment, was overshadowed by the publication of pictures of him frolicking naked with a nude woman.
The prince, who has often spoken of his disdain for the intrusive British press, said he had let himself and his family down, but added the incident should have remained private.
The issue of privacy is close to his heart after his mother, Princess Diana, was killed in a 1997 car crash in Paris while being chased by paparazzi.

To be honest, I've not given this product a fair trial because the taste puts me off using it. It's not actually an unpleasant taste, but it's like sucking on a vitamin C dissolvable tablet - very sour. It can't be helped - it's an acid after all, so you can expect it to be acidic, but it needs to be really diluted and I find it better if I mix it with a fruit juice that's not already tangy e.g. cheap OJ. I was wanting it for my morning smoothie/protein shake which I usually enjoy,and don't want to spoil the flavour. If you're not bothered about flavour and just neck your mixes down it's fine. I can't comment on it's effectiveness because I've not taken it consistently enough to have any measurable effect.Goes Well With:Non-acidic fruit juice.
"This is only the second time I have used Malic acid but it works very well indeed! It doesnt all disolve but that dont matter cos it doesnt taste too bad ,a bit acidic (well it would being called malic acid). I got a nice relaxed feeling and some good energy,not run amile or hit the gym energy but more like doing house work or gardening. I have mixed it with creatine and caffeine and it changes them both to a less jittery,unable to focus (like too much coffee)effect to a more mellow energy.To be honest If you like the heavy stim effect it might not be a good idea to mix. Use it on its own or mix it because at this price you cant loose! Oh yeh dont do too much at one time , its like vitamin c, find your limit or you will be on the toilet all day :<."

Hairless cat breeds, such as a Sphinx or a Peterbald, don't necessarily mean less maintenance. Although these cats are beautiful, unusual and affectionate, their exposed skin often requires more care than that of a typical furry feline.
The economy may be hurting our wallets, but that doesn't mean you need to skip gift-giving this holiday season, especially when it comes to your cat. There's no need to splurge on presents for your favorite pet; the best gifts often involve more thought and less cash. Here's a Santa's sack full of ideas for homemade, handmade or inexpensive cat gifts:

Post subject: Creative Team Assemble! Writer Looking for Artists!
Greetings Humanoids,
My name is Danger_Slater. I am a professional writer/novelist. I have recently finished writing a 6 issue comic book mini-series and am looking for a creative team to collaborate with.
As for the tone and look, it is a superhero book, a dark comedy/satire along the lines of Ennis or Ellis (with the existentialism of Morrison for good measure because Morrison rules, and honestly, why the hell not?) but a little more on the absurd side (think South Park).
Artwise, I envision it a little exaggerated and very bright - like Darick Robertson or Rob Guillory.
If you're curious as to the sort of stories I write, feel free to check out my website (or buy my book. That would rock!):
Click on 'published works' for links.
I should stress that I am not looking to "hire out" an artist(s). I'm looking for partners. Collaborators. I would want this comic to belong as much to the artists as it does to myself. I believe I have the talent, ideas and skills needed to make it in this industry, and I need an equally-talented team to work with me. I need serious, focused, creative individuals who consider succeeding in this business more important than their shitty "day jobs."
Alone I'm a rocket ship. Alone you are boosters. Let's put our skills together and make it to the moon! Let's make some fuckin' art!
If you're interested, want to know more, or just tell me I'm a dickhead, send me an email:
and we'll get to talking and see if we gel.
Bonus points if you live in New Jersey (Northeastern NJ/NYC area, as that's where I live and that's where the comic takes place).
Thanks guys.

Since you bring it up, I can't speak to how the money portion would be handled until the money comes in.
I am under the assumption that when the comic gets picked up for publication, there will be some sort of contract that the publisher would sign with both myself, the artist and whoever else is on the team and all those details will get hammered out then.
I'm not saying I want someone to draw all six issues without payment. Perhaps it came across that way?
What I need are partners who can mock up some pages that we can use as part of the pitch to the publishers. Most publishers won't look at your stuff as a writer unless you come with your own creative team. Hence, I am trying to build a creative team.
Is it a risk? Of course it is. But I'm headed for the top. And it's your loss if you don't want to come with me.

No offense, but that last remark is kind of arrogant. What makes your writing skills so great that an artist should take the risk to work with you for potentially zero money? Similarly, it could be a HUGE loss for an artist if the book doesn't pan out. Time is an artists most valuable asset and it takes a lot of time to produce quality art. You also make it sound like artists can't get by without you, by comparing them to "boosters" and that by teaming up with you they will "make it to the moon!" There are countless artists who made it HUGE by writing their own stories. Yes, I know that you were just using a metaphor, but again, you put yourself on top by calling yourself a "rocket." The simple fact is, you need an artist more than an artist needs you. That shouldn't suggest at all that writers aren't valuable or that your writing is no good, but you're making it sound like the only way to make it big is to team up with you.
Yes I know this thread is old and you've probably already been working with an artist for some time now, or are not longer looking, but that last comment you made just really rubbed me the wrong way so I just had to say something.
I do wish you the best of luck with your project, but please try to be a tad more humble when dealing with illustrators.

DangerSlater, I respect your confidence!
I too consider myself better than everyone with not much to back it up!
I will draw your comic! It will be black and white, and your ass is doing the lettering!
I'll take co-creator credit and 50% of any profits that are made!

Air classifiers are preferred over fine screening in one or both of the following situations: 1) the rate is too high for fine screening; 2) the cut point is too fine for screening. Take for example an application in which calcium carbonate must be separated at 75 microns. A common round vibrating separator with a 200 mesh screen can make a very sharp separation in such an application at about 1 tn/hr. But what if the desired processing rate is 30 tn/hr? Sure, you could install 30 vibrating screens, but that's not really practical. A single air classifier could handle the entire 30 tn/hr.
As another example, let's say we have a toner powder that we want to separate at 5 microns. It is not possible to accomplish this with a screen for the simple reason that it is not physically possible to weave a screen with openings as small as 5 microns. But a high-performance turbo classifier can easily make such a separation.
There are several types of air classifiers available. Perhaps the simplest is the "falling bed aspirator". This is a static device in which the material to be classified falls by gravity through an upwardly moving air stream. The lighter, finer material is carried off by the air and the heavier, coarser particles fall out the bottom. This extremely simple device can be used when the difference in particle size is huge, such as de-dusting a granular or pelletized material.
For more accurate and finer separations, one can use a rotary air classifier. Sometimes these are referred to as "dynamic" or "whizzer" classifiers. In these devices the material to be classified is dropped onto a rotating circular disk that flings the material out to its edges. Below the disk is a fan generating an air stream such that particles flow upward all around the periphery of the disk. Coarser, heavier particles fall off the disk into a hopper. Finer, lighter particles are lifted by the air and flow up and over a wall into a separate hopper. The cut point can be changed by varying fan speed and adjusting directional vanes. While these types of classifiers are relatively inexpensive, they cannot make very sharp cuts and are generally limited to finenesses in the range of 300 microns down to 45 microns.
For applications that require very sharp cuts or very fine cut points, a turbo classifier is the way to go. The turbo classifier is not a standalone unit. It requires a separate air moving system to pull air through the classifier. The turbo classifier itself resembles a squirrel cage blower, but, in this case, the spinning rotor is not there to generate an air flow, but rather to make a separation based on particle size. The external air moving system is configured to suck air "backwards" through the rotor, that is, air is drawn through to the inside of the rotor. The material to be classified is introduced to the air flow upstream of the classifier. As the material enters the classifier, it encounters the spinning rotor where a "tug-of-war" is played out on each particle. Aerodynamic forces from the flowing air try to pull the particle into the rotor. Simultaneously centrifugal forces from the spinning rotor try to push the particle out away from the rotor. Which force wins depends on the particle's size.
For coarse particles, centrifugal force wins. These particles are flung out away from the rotor and fall into a collection hopper. For smaller particles, aerodynamic force wins. These fine particles are drawn through the rotor and conveyed to a dust collector where they are dropped out of the air flow. Most turbo classifiers operate in the range of around 150 microns down to 5 or 10 microns. But highly advanced turbo classifiers can achieve cut points as fine as 1 micron, making them suitable for nanotechnology applications.
Several manufacturers offer various types of air classifiers for a wide range of applications. As with other process equipment, selecting the right manufacturer requires thorough research and often involves laboratory testing.

"Is it fair to entice people to pre-order a game with an extra DLC multiplayer level and then to take it away?
This is a precedent that worries me, and so feel it should be discussed among gamers. Here's a closer look at the issue."
That's just stupid. If you give it away as a pre-order item, it should be the gamer's to keep.
Apparently you can use it locally, but not online.
What could possibly be the purpose of this?
Shouldn't they have to say: "the following free pre-order DLC is for when we allow you to use it" before selling you the pre-order copy of Black Ops 2?

Weekend Recap: work, work & more work
Hi All,
This weekend was not restful at all. Saturday was spent running around Manhattan in the dreadful heat for client meetings and then getting stuck in traffic on my way.
The rest of the day was spent searching for bedding for my sister's new apt and finishing up some projects for her. We were up till midnight doing work.
Sunday was another trip into the city to bring some furniture into my sissy's new apt and I made sure to get some sneak peeks.
Her little dining nook:
* Totally not finished or styled. Don't you love all of my cable accessories on the floor? :)
I told you I was feeling toile take a peek at my cushion fabric and of course I love a touch of greek key can you find it in the picture?
Remember my amazing thrift store deal from last September? Well it's on loan from my sweet mom and it fits in perfectly.
We also added some furniture pieces to her bedroom. Remember how I was
arguing discussing with my sister that you don't need to have a matching bedroom set?
Well we decided to meet each other in the middle. We used pieces from the vintage bamboo set I had found, but gave them a different look to break up the set! This way both of us ended up happy.
Isn't that an amazing shade of green? I love it and tend to use it time and time again.
I didn't want to be a total tease so here is another shot of the desk and chair.
The dresser got a different look to break up the set. Of course I had to inject a little bit of my favorite color!
Again remember totally no styling done here the room is still being put together, but here is the full dresser:
Don't you love the white and orange together! Kudos to Jon for that. I'm pretty sure he's going to start taking on clients soon. :)
Of course I share the good, bad and the ugly on this blog. Check out the rest of the room:
Not good, but don't fret my pets it should all be wrapped up in the next week or so.
I did make a little time to add some fun. On my way home from the my sissy's apt we stopped in Brooklyn to see some old friends and do a little BBQing.
So loves, share & spill what you did this weekend? Any fun projects you tackled or how about just plain old fun that was had?
*The green paint color is Shamrock by Behr (Hate the name, love the color!) and then pillows were actually made by my seamstress. The fabric is available here.

Earlier this week, Sainsbury's purchased a majority stake in ebook retailer Anobii from HMV for £1 in what was the latest example of a major retailer trying to extend its footprint into the world of digital content.
Yesterday, we saw another example of this same trend as Tesco purchased UK-based music streaming service We7 for £10.8m.
According to The Telegraph's Emma Barnett, Tesco already owned 91% of We7, but is purchasing the remaining 9% and will apparently be doubling down on its investment by launching new services through We7 in the next several months.
As We7 co-founder Steve Purdham sees it, Tesco's ownership will be a good thing. "With its loyal customer base, numerous marketing channels and international reach, we believe Tesco is the perfect partner to bring We7's music services to a wider audience," he stated.
The wider audience part is important: We7 is nowhere near as popular as its bigger rival Spotify. Late last year, the company ended its free on demand streaming service and made changes designed to help it stand out. At the time, Purdham was still confident that his company could compete with the Spotifys of the world. "I think there is room for lots of digital music streaming services and we still haven't seen one of the biggest players, Apple, fully wade into this space...but we feel there is more commercial gain to follow the radio model with 'on air' adverts rather than subscription services and free on demand streaming," he was quoted as saying.
Obviously, Spotify's popularity has only increased since that time, so it's not clear that We7's approach is working. The big question, of course, is whether Tesco can really change that.
In selling to Tesco, We7 is taking an increasingly popular path. More and more upstarts looking to scale are aligning themselves with big companies in the hopes that those big companies can provide more than just capital. This isn't just happening in the digital content market. Earlier this year, for instance, UK shopping site mySupermarket raised money from ad agency WPP. The reason: the company's CEO believed "WPP provides more domain expertise and their breadth of relationship is unparalleled in both the data and advertising worlds."
At the end of the day, there's little doubt that strategic investors and acquirers with deep pockets can help also-ran services survive in an effort to bolster their own digital offerings, but in the next couple of years we'll see if they can really help them thrive.

I think the things you covered through the post are quiet impressive, good job and great efforts. I found it very interesting and enjoyed reading all of it.

The First Five West Wing Episodes You Should Rewatch on Instant Netflix
What's next?
Have you heard that The West Wing is on Instant Netflix now? It is! That makes everything better! For those who have never watched the show, our deepest condolences: Yours is a dark world, but now it's easier than ever to step into the light. Assuming you have seen the show over and over, like any sane person has, now's the time to cherry-pick a few episodes to rewatch. We're not saying these are the absolute best episodes or that this works as a primer for the uninitiated. But these are the first five you should jump back in with, to get back into the mix and really stimulate that Bartlet-nostalgia delight hormone.
1. "In the Shadow of Two Gunmen Part I" and "Part II," season two
Everyone has a great moment in this two-parter. In flashbacks, we get to see a drunk and disgruntled Toby, a salty and unsatisfied corporate Sam, a salty and unsatisfied Hollywood C.J., an extra-naïve Donna, and a pre-glory Bartlet. And in the present day, there's all the trauma drama in the aftermath of Josh and the president being shot. It's pretty much perfect.
2. "The U.S. Poet Laureate," season three
A few episodes of TWW revolve around a "mistake" actually being some scheming staff member's plan to subvert the media cycle. (See: Leo leaking debate footage of himself.) But in "Poet Laureate," that conceit works particularly well, because it's Bartlet with the fake-out gaffe of calling his faux–George W. Bush opponent Rob Ritchie stupid. Plus it's the episode with Josh's fan site Lemon Lyman. And Laura Dern as a whimsical poet. And C.J. mastering the non-apology apology.
3. "Bartlet for America," season three
There had to be a Christmas episode of this list, and "Noël" is too intense. (For these purposes. As an episode, it's totally unimpeachable and arguably the best of the series.) In "BfA," we get the Bartlet and Leo origin story; the saga of the fateful napkin. And in between the dark flashbacks about Leo's relapse and the onset of the president's MS, C.J. accidentally throws a basketball through a window. Levity!
4. "Debate Camp," season four
Charlie might be the captain, but surely we are all members of Team Toby. "Debate" combines the joys of the slightly softer side of Toby with the fun of the prickly side of Bartlet. (Yeah, it's another flashback-heavy episode. Those are the most fun.)
5. "The Cold," season seven
It's the one where Josh and Donna finally kiss! Bonus Will and Kate romance! Season seven is better than you remember!
And now you're officially hooked again.

We should begin this article with a preface. The following information is comprised of facts, and in some cases, where noted ,substantiated rumor. However, the inferences drawn, when looking at all these instances as being correlated events, are purely our own here at A&R, and should therefore be taken as fanciful speculation on our parts, but none-the-less something to mull-over while riding this weekend..
Looking at the facts leading up to the TTXGP, and the occurences at the Isle of Man, is it possible that Michael Czysz orchestrated a game plan at the Isle of Man that included sandbagging the E1pc's true performance capability on race day? Our analysis after the jump.

Model Features
Reduced-Emission Engine Technology - Caring for Nature
The STIHL Inc. "Caring for Nature" seal identifies its powered products that are more environmentally conscious, producing zero or low exhaust emissions. STIHL Inc. defines "low exhaust emissions" as being cleaner than EPA and/or CARB exhaust emission standards.
STIHL Easy2Start™
The STIHL Easy2Start™ system makes starting STIHL outdoor power tools almost effortless, eliminating the need for a strong pull of the starting cord. This advanced starting system is designed to make starting STIHL products easier. The specific system may vary by model, but in each case, a quick pull overcomes the engine's compression to minimize the strength and effort required to start. Available on selected products.

Having easy access to all of the controls on one comfortable handle makes it easy to complete tasks so the operator's hand never has to leave the handle.
IntelliCarb™ Compensating Carburetor
The IntelliCarb™ Compensating Carburetor measures the air pressure on the clean side of the air filter and adjusts the metering diaphragm in the carburetor. This keeps the RPM at a consistent level, even when the air filter begins to clog.
Tool-Free Handle Adjustment
The central wing nut enables easy adjustment without the use of tools. For transportation and space-saving storage, the handle can be rotated 90°.
Purge Pump Primer
By pressing the bulb, this small fuel pump delivers fuel to the carburetor, reducing the number of starting pulls needed after an extended break between uses.
Anti-Vibration System

"This is one of the few conservation technologies capable of reducing water, fuel and electric while protecting health and reducing liability.
Philadelphia PA (PRWEB) January 27, 2013
Businesses with large laundering facilities suffer high utility costs from that activity due to the combination of all of the gas, electric, water/sewer, and detergent necessary to get the job done. Hospitals, hotels, nursing facilities, prisons and commercial laundromats would all benefit with an Ozone Injection System installation. A properly sourced and designed laundry ozone system will dramatically outperform traditional laundering in operational costs and a higher laundry quality. Ozone is another name for activated oxygen, a natural process that serves as Mother Nature's purifier. Ozone initializes a chemical reaction that will energize laundry detergents and maximize their potential. There are significant and surprising results when you activate soap. By utilizing ozone it is customary to reduce wash and rinse cycles, which can reduce electric and water needed by 35%. Ozone will save up to 85% on gas because ozone allows laundry to be done in predominantly cold water, and still receive a properly sanitized result. Because of the way these systems fully activate the detergent, the laboratory studies recommend using 75% less, reducing the amount of rinse cycles and chemicals returned to the environment. When less detergent is in the laundry it will dry faster, so it is gentler on linens, extends equipment life, and will save even more electric and gas.
According to Scott Milne President of National Energy Technology, "This is one of the few conservation technologies capable of reducing water, fuel and electric while providing additional health and liability abatement benefits as well. I consider it the tri-fecta of utility reduction". There are different types of ozone introduction systems available: diffusion, water injection, recirculation, bubble, and charge systems. The Ozone equipment offered by National Energy Technology is the only technology to date that guarantees 99.999% superbug eradication and backs it up with two independent laboratory studies. The right system will likely show an ROI shorter than 12 months and will deliver superior laundry quality and bacteria elimination for many years. These systems will surpass OSHA safety standards and will protect against: E.Coli, HIV, Hepatitis as well as the super bugs MSRA (staph), C.diff, Aspergillums Niger and many more. Unlike bleach that is only utilized in one wash stage, ozone is a powerful biocide, which will destroy bacteria throughout the reduced wash and rinse cycles, as specifically programmed.
An additional benefit to this technology is the more comfortable laundry rooms with happier healthier employees. These units require no special electric or plumbing connections with little to no maintenance or downtime. They are equipped with room ozone sensor monitors and automatic safety shutoff.
National Energy Technologies LLC has elevated the standard of excellence of Conservation Consulting Services by combining expertise in multiple utility reduction practices in a comprehensive yet holistic approach. We are a commercial facility conservation consultant specialist. Our firm will introduce, and consult on targeted technologies designed to maximize utility savings with the shortest ROI. Our techniques will save from 5 to 25% on electricity, cooling, water, or fuel, by correcting inefficiencies in; indoor air cooling, large refrigeration, lighting, laundry, compressed air, water flow and many other resource depleting activities. National Energy Technologies performs energy assessments, corporate counseling, public speaking, and can consult on demand response, deregulated energy contracts as well as ongoing energy modeling. Our technicians are efficiency specialists and understand all aspects of large facility infrastructure. 800-984-0332
