The Girl Who Gave Up Yoga to Go to War. ~ Sanja Cloete-Jones

Child's pose

I was the girl who went through labor in a headstand.

I talked yoga, I wrote yoga, I practiced yoga, I preached yoga and I taught yoga—I was in perpetual motion.

Then life decided to rearrange my priorities for me.

I became sick.

The kind of sick that swoops in without warning and takes over the ‘all day every day’ of an entire life with stunning matter-of-fact-ness. The kind of sick that had me fighting for some semblance of an existence.

It’s a damn shame to use military talk to discuss disease but:

I was violently ill from chemicals.

I found myself in another country from where I could only occasionally visit friends and family—a country not even those closest to me could fully comprehend.

I had to blindly follow instructions from people I barely knew, who spoke a language that was uncomfortably foreign.

I had to resort to a uniform consisting of soft, easy clothes offering easy access for pipes and ports and allowed my gruesomely besieged tummy the space it suddenly demanded.

It was exhausting—mentally, physically, emotionally.

Seeing other people, healthy people, out on a run even made me fantasize about killing innocent civilians.

That’s war no?

And I was badly prepared. Because with every bone in my aching body I was a hippy,veggie, lefty, yogi.

Raised by a father who taught me to take the ants outside one by one, not wash them down the drain (my poor Mama confessed years later that she would wait for us all to leave before doing a little surreptitious ‘family planning’ among the insect population threatening to take over the household).

Yoga was one of the first casualties in this badly fought, wrought with tactical errors, battle.

I had set ideas about what constitutes a practice and as my new body could not comply, my set practice was chucked on the heap of other stuff that I needed to burn and mourn (just as soon as I could get together the energy for the great big self-pity party that would entail).

Which brings us to Perez Hilton.

Because when I relinquished the territory of movement I found myself suddenly spending my days leopard crawling through the squelchy, muddy underbelly of the net.

As you do.

And that was where I found this:

I had always been a very focused Seane Corn—90 minute practice, Sanskrit chanting, heavy on the spirituality, hold the rock, serious yoga practitioner. I would consider Bikram and dabble in Duncan Wong but I could not understand why anyone would think they could get something out of a 30 minute yoga class.

Things chez Sadie were all new. The über cool hair, the open talk about yoga and weight-loss, the chanting of Bon Jovi! Way back in the day she came complete with an alternate universe filled with free yoga teaching videos on Youtube and a Facebook page.

It was the beginning of a new journey for me…a little attack of the spiritual shopaholics.

Through the internet, Sadie single-handedly restored yoga to my day to day existence without me having to move, much less having to leave my bed… most days would bring small yogic updates, inspiration for mindful living, energizing recipes and practical advice.

As one would come back to the breath repeatedly during physical practice, it brought me back into yogic consciousness. It felt a little silly pitching up at a real yoga class only to sit in the corner and watch while you waited for your intravenous drip to finish (also known as ‘how to make a Bikram instructor really sweat’ but what can I say, life can take the yoga out of the girl but occasionally she will kick over the traces and not allow it to take the girl out of the yoga)—in a virtual class or conversation however, anything is, quite literally, possible.

The transference of responsibility can be fabulously freeing

Whether you find yourself flat on your back and out of commission or flat out running through this crazy busy period in your life, you will not need to find time for yoga… it will find you.

And I’m so happy I was given the gift of pain and mind-blowing fatigue.

Because I could have lived an entire lifetime addicted to performance, thinking I was tolerant without ever truly learning the lesson of acceptance and being open to other ways of doing things… especially new ways of doing ancient things.

Three years after I first started following her I had the opportunity to chat to Sadie and she told me the tale of how she ended up in my bedroom.

Waking up from a nap one day she thought ‘I should stop waiting around for more studios to hire me and just offer to yogis everywhere by putting a couple of videos on that crazy YouTube thingy.’  She considers her great success an accident. First to admit that there is too much information out there, Sadie also believes that people who take responsibility and make clever connections with like-minded people have instant access to personal growth.

Also, the feedback from a community of daily followers benefits the teacher.

Purists might argue that a social network can’t take the place of your regular yoga teacher–but I think it can give you perpetual access to the very best yoga has to offer globally… and from this select group you can handpick people whose philosophy gels best with yours, or spend time thinking about stuff you would never have considered before.

Stretching (your mind, your preconceived beliefs) is what yoga is about after all.

These days I’ve started doing yoga with Seane Corn again. It turns out that she is far more accepting of limitations than I allowed myself to notice. And when I talk to people about yoga I find myself telling them to check out Sadie’s video’s for Wake up and Go to sleep yoga that you basically do in bed.

As Albert Einstein noted:

“He who joyfully marches to music in rank and file has already earned my contempt. He has been given a large brain by mistake, since for him the spinal cord would suffice.”

Because here’s the thing.

I found that being open to strange new ideas (even when it comes to ancient practices like yoga or the very strong instincts about how I should live my life that seem ingrained in my very DNA) taught me that war is sometimes simply a spineless escape from the challenges of peace.

Five years on, I’m no closer to any long term cure but I am getting slightly better (and I’d like to think even a little more elegant) at lurching between catastrophe and retreat.

Yesterday I managed 9.33 minutes of a very gentle practice.

I’m ok with it.

Let’s chant  to that!

A guide to data collection, modeling and inference strategies for biological survey data using Bayesian and classical statistical methods.

This book describes a general and flexible framework for modeling and inference in ecological systems based on hierarchical models, with a strict focus on the use of probability models and parametric inference. Hierarchical models represent a paradigm shift in the application of statistics to ecological inference problems because they combine explicit models of ecological system structure or dynamics with models of how ecological systems are observed. The principles of hierarchical modeling are developed and applied to problems in population, metapopulation, community, and metacommunity systems.

The book provides the first synthetic treatment of many recent methodological advances in ecological modeling and unifies disparate methods and procedures. The authors apply principles of hierarchical modeling to ecological problems, including

  • occurrence or occupancy models for estimating species distribution
  • abundance models based on many sampling protocols, including distance sampling
  • capture-recapture models with individual effects
  • spatial capture-recapture models based on camera trapping and related methods
  • population and metapopulation dynamic models
  • models of biodiversity, community structure and dynamics

Key Features

  • Wide variety of examples involving many taxa (birds, amphibians, mammals, insects, plants)

  • Development of classical, likelihood-based procedures for inference, as well as Bayesian methods of analysis

  • Detailed explanations describing the implementation of hierarchical models using freely available software such as R and WinBUGS

  • Computing support in technical appendices in an online companion web site

Post-graduate research biologists in ecology and population dynamics and field surveys - engaged in field data collection and modelling for all practical and theoretical applications; Biostatisticians

Alienware M15x / M17x laptops revealed with NVIDIA 8800M GTX

Darren Murph

It's no secret that Alienware laptops have long loved to pack some serious NVIDIA-based heat, and judging by screenshots (another shown after the jump) of a reported slip up earlier today, those scouting a new extraterrestrial rig might want to hold out just a tick longer. It looks as if the firm will soon be unveiling (officially, that is) the 15-inch M15x and 17-inch M17x gaming laptops, both of which will seemingly be available with the 512MB NVIDIA GeForce Go 8800M GTX graphics processor. As for the 8M-series GPU, it'll boast full DirectX 10 support, the Lumenex Engine, second-generation PureVideo HD technology, a 500MHz core clock, 1,250MHz shader clock and an 800MHz memory clock. Regarding the actual lappies, all we know is that the smaller of the two will be available with a 1,440 x 900 resolution display, 2.2GHz Core 2 Duo processor, 1GB of RAM, a 120GB HDD, dual-layer DVD writer and Vista Home Premium. We'll be keeping an ear to the ground for something official, but don't worry, it ought not be long now.

[Thanks, Andrew]

Inhabitat's Week in Green: Dyson Spheres, bladeless wind turbines and airless bike tires

Each week our friends at Inhabitat recap the week's most interesting green developments and clean tech news for us -- it's the Week in Green.

Over at Inhabitat, the election hangover is finally starting to wear off, and we've been looking forward to see what President Obama's re-election could mean for clean tech and renewable energy. The first bit of good news came on election night, when Obama called for action on climate change. That's all well and good, but what does it actually mean? For starters, it could mean the EPA enforcing stricter regulations. But the thing that most people in the renewable energy sector will be watching is whether the wind energy tax credit is renewed before it expires at the end of the year.

Even if the federal tax credit for wind energy isn't renewed, there's still hope for renewable energy. Scientists at Penn State just kicked off a two-year search for massive alien solar power stations known as Dyson Spheres. If they find one, maybe extraterrestrials could give us some tips on intergalactic solar technology. Here on Earth, Natcore Technology has created the world's first commercially viable absolute black silicon cell, which can make virtually 100 percent of received sunlight available for conversion into electricity. Speaking of solar efficiency, this week solar manufacturer Amonix announced that its concentrated photovoltaic technology has set a new efficiency record with a conversion rate of 33.5 percent. In other solar news, the Westmill Solar Cooperative launched the world's largest community-owned solar project in the UK, a group of African teenagers developed a pee-powered energy generator and Tunisian company Saphon Energy unveiled a new bladeless, bird-friendly wind turbine.

From bionic limbs to airless bike tires, we've been tracking some pretty incredible new technological innovations. RSL Steeper unveiled the bebionic 3, an amazing new prosthetic hand that is strong enough to hold 99 pounds and sensitive enough to write with a pen. In an unrelated story, 31-year-old Zac Vawter, who lost his leg in a motorcycle accident, climbed 103 floors of Chicago's Willis Tower wearing a bionic leg. BriTek recently unveiled its amazing new Energy Return Wheel, which is an airless bike tire that can never go flat. We also showcased several innovations from the intersection of fashion and technology -- a light-up Twitter dress, a pair of "Social Denim" jeans that let you update your Facebook status on the fly and a brilliant "Rocking Knit" chair that uses kinetic energy generated from the chair's gliding motion to knit a winter hat while you sit.

In the week since Hurricane Sandy crashed into the East Coast, Inhabitat has been continuing its coverage of the recovery effort. Greenpeace's Rolling Sunlight mobile solar power array has been touring the streets of the Rockaways this week, enabling residents to charge their phones and other devices. We also covered several off-grid devices that we'd like to have in the event of another storm of Sandy's magnitude -- Nokero's compact SunRay Pro solar charger, Berkey's super-versatile and effective water filter and Eton's hand-crank cellphone charger. And this week we caught up with photographer Iwan Baan, who took the iconic photo of a darkened lower Manhattan that graced the cover of New York magazine.

With the winter bearing down, we've put together a series of guides explaining how to winter-proof your home and how to save money with a programmable thermostat. And looking forward to the holidays (sorry, but yes, they're coming up), we've put together a comprehensive guide to greening your holiday decor.

Themes and Meanings

In many of Colette’s stories, love, or a semblance thereof, leads to disappointment—not because love is naturally disappointing, but because people mismanage it. In “The Kepi,” the innocent Marco pursues love in the wrong way from the beginning when she refuses to see the distressing usualness of the lieutenant’s letters that Colette perceives. Colette further hints at the problem when Marco pops in one afternoon shortly after first meeting the lieutenant. Because Marco is in high spirits, Colette believes that she has control of the situation and is keeping the liaison in its correct perspective. This is not the case, though, for Marco’s emotions are out of control to the extent that she half-seriously believes her lover has cast a spell on her. This lack of control is symbolized in her weight gain and in her final imprudence with the kepi. Colette intimates that vigilance, perspective, and a measure of self-control, both physically and emotionally, are necessary to maintain love, even more so when one of the parties can no longer rely on youthful attractiveness to gloss over infractions. If Marco’s response to unlooked-for love had been the same gracious equanimity with which she received her financial good fortune, then she may still have lost her love, but not her dignity, Colette seems to say.

Masson’s closing comment, that payment of two sous per line constitutes a “tremendous change” in Marco’s life, reminds the reader ironically of the other “tremendous” (that is, trite) change that Marco underwent, from poised woman to foolish soubrette. Although the narrator implicitly criticizes Marco’s behavior, Colette herself contributes to her friend’s downfall. Fashionable details (“the new ’angel’ hairstyle,” “more nipped-in waistlines,” and “a rosier shade of powder”) preoccupy both the narrator and the character Colette. Becoming more attractive under Colette’s care not only makes Marco more alluring to the opposite sex but also primes the austere and dignified woman to see herself as romantic heroine. The narrator’s tone implies that Marco’s misadventure is the result only of Marco’s poor judgment; Colette never acknowledges her own complicity.

Pat Conroy Analysis

Other literary forms

Pat Conroy is known principally for his novels. His earliest published work, The Boo, is a collection of sketches about one of his college teachers; it was self-published in 1970. Two nonfiction books, The Water Is Wide (1972) and My Losing Season (2002), are autobiographical. He is also coauthor, with Suzanne Williamson Pollak, of The Pat Conroy Cookbook: Recipes of My Life (2004). His interest in regional cuisines of the American South is evidenced by his contributing introductory material for several cookbooks by southern chefs. Others who have included his introductory remarks in their works. Conroy cowrote the Oscar-nominated screenplay for the film The Prince of Tides (1991), which is based on his 1986 novel.

Pat Conroy’s novels have all been best sellers, and he is part of a group of writers contributing a distinctly southern sensibility to popular novels of the late twentieth century. He is a major part of the post-Civil Rights movement generation of writers who write about their conflicted feelings toward the South. He speaks with honesty about both the bad and the good in the region. Most of his literary prizes and awards have recognized his excellence as a southern artist. These awards include the Georgia Governor’s Award for Arts; the Lillian Smith Award for Fiction, given by the Southern Regional Council; the Thomas Cooper Society Library Award from the University of South Carolina; and the South Carolina Governor’s Award in the Humanities for distinguished achievement. Additionally, Conroy was the first recipient of the Stanley W. Lindberg Award, given by the Georgia Center for the Book, and he won the Thomas Wolfe Prize from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.

Conroy is also known for his contributions to the ongoing struggle for racial equality, and he was awarded the Georgia Commission on the Holocaust Humanitarian Award in 1996. Most of his major novels have been made into films, and in 1991, he was nominated, along with Becky Johnston, for Best Adapted Screenplay by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences for the film The Prince of Tides.

The Prince of Tides Critical Context (Masterplots II: Juvenile & Young Adult Literature Series) - Essay

Pat Conroy

Critical Context (Masterplots II: Juvenile & Young Adult Literature Series)

The Prince of Tides is seldom seen on a required reading list for young adult literature courses. It is not likely that this novel will replace classics such as J. D. Salinger’s The Catcher in the Rye (1951), nor can one expect that Tom Wingo will become as recognizable a protagonist as Holden Caulfield in the young adult canon. This novel’s potential to offend because of its blunt language, situations of violence, and sexual explicitness may limit the general appeal of The Prince of Tides.

Nevertheless, this book is and should be found on supplemental or optional reading lists from which young adults can make their own individual choices. The Prince of Tides, like its predecessors, The Great Santini (1976) and The Lords of Discipline (1980), has an impressive following among young readers. They overlook the epithets of “sloppy emotionalism,” “saccharine sentimentalism,” and “historical carpetbagging” leveled by less enthusiastic critics of Pat Conroy’s autobiographical novels. Instead, many of the young readers who await each new Conroy novel are drawn by the themes of survival and self-discovery. They are attracted by the multilayered, baroque imagery that the author uses to capture the rapture of a moonrise and the haunting memory of a family tragedy. Conroy is a gifted storyteller who knows how to chronicle the wayward, ephemeral human passions. His manifold narrative gifts easily permit the reader to forgive occasional lapses into pedantic clichés and tear-jerking episodes. His novels of human survival are affirmations of life. When stories affirm life, young readers will seek them out.

Chapter 6 - The Honour of Working at Home

I must admit that if I'd read this book a few years ago, I would not have been impressed with this chapter. Staying at home was not going to be my 'lot in life', I would say (patronisingly) to my mother. I was meant for better things! In fact, I still remember a conversation I had with my dad when he gently suggested that I may not ever use my law degree - that I may end up being married to a missionary in China, or decide to stay at home and raise my kids! I told him emphatically, through tears, that I was sure that God's plans for me involved me using my law degree for some 'greater good' than that.

I feel quite ashamed when I think of that story, but it's reassuring to see how God's been changing me - it has taken me a long time, but I think I have come to see the eternal significance of a day spent serving God on such a small stage, so invisible to the world.

That being said, I think there are two dangers I still need to watch out for as a stay-at-home mother of young kids -

1. Career envy

Although I feel happy with my decision to be at home with my kids, and thankful that God has blessed us with the financial resources to make that possible, I find that there are moments when I feel envious of women who have 'careers'. Sometimes, when I look at others I went through school and uni with, who now have interesting (and better paid!) jobs where they get lots of encouragement, get to wear nice clothes, get flown to exotic locations etc, my life seems a little boring. And sometimes, I get a little glimpse of how my friends who have chosen that path must see me - and I don't like how foolish I appear to them!

When this sort of career envy strikes, the temptation is to indulge it with a spell of self-pity or a bout of self-righteousness, or to become perfectionist and competitive about the kids, because they are my career-substitute ("I gave up a highly paid career for you, so the least you can do is be gifted/perfect/saintly...!").

I must be careful that I continue to fight against this, and be content in my situation, and find my joy in Jesus, not in my accomplishments!

2. House-worship

The other trap I fear in my situation as a stay-at-home mum is to focus so much on the 'beautification' of my home that my house becomes my idol. I'm not denying the importance of the mundane activities of keeping my house clean and my family clothed and fed. "Whatever you do...", Paul says in Colossians 3:23, you should do with all your heart. Sweeping a room and changing a nappy can be acts of worship and beautiful in God's sight.

But there is a difference between housework (as a way of serving a family and making a house a hospitable, welcoming home) and houseworship. Haggai has some pretty damning things to say about the Israelites of his day, who spent more energy (and money) on panelling their houses than on building God's temple. The most important way in which I serve God and help my husband as a stay-at-home mum, in this season of my life, is by caring for kids and teaching them to love and follow Jesus. And hand in hand with this (and part of this task, I believe), there are so many ways I can use my home for ministry, and use my flexible time (especially as the kids get older) to be a blessing in the wider community and promote the cause of the gospel.

I must not let my ultimate goal be a beautiful home - a magazine-picture home that my family isn't comfortable in and visitors aren't welcome in, which diverts my time and energy and money away from things which are far more important in the sight of God.

If I have a clear vision of what my goals are in all my 'busyness' at home, I'll know better how to make the everyday decisions of how to spend my time. So (in the years to come) I expect and hope that there will be times when the washing up doesn't get done until the afternoon because I'm teaching Scripture that day, or we have baked beans on toast for dinner because I've been talking to one of my children about a difficult thing that happened at school.

My worry is that if I'm too focussed on the immediate domestic agenda without seeing where it fits into a bigger vision of the kingdom of God, then I'll fail in my ultimate task. I liked what John Piper said about motherhood recently:

The women who flourish most and who delight most in that calling—and who are best at it—are not women whose lives are circumscribed by their houses. They are women who are aware of the world. They're aware of God's global purpose. They're aware of the ultimate purposes of God in history. They're aware of things in history and in the far off reaches of the world today that God is doing. And those are part of what they want to build into these children. They want to raise global Christians, world Christians.

A mother will delight most in the little baby in front of her when she has a vision of God and a vision of the world that's big enough to admit that this little child has a destiny in front of him or her and might become this or that.

If she is totally circumscribed by her little home—with no vision for the world—then I think her domestic scene is probably going to shrivel up on her, and she is going to feel that it is small and constraining. But if she sees it in the wider context of what she is a part of in the missionary enterprise, I think every detail of her life can take on a global significance, indeed, an historical significance.

Lineman Appreciation Day

America’s electric cooperatives have designated the second Monday of April as National Lineman Appreciation Day.

On April 10, 2017, EREC honors the hard working men and women who often work in challenging conditions to keep the lights on.

The full text of the resolution, which the National Rural Electric Cooperative Association (NRECA) Board adopted unanimously, follows:

“Whereas linemen leave their families and put their lives on the line every day to keep the power on; Whereas linemen work 365 days a year under dangerous conditions to build, maintain and repair the electric infrastructure; Whereas linemen are the first responders of the electric cooperative family, getting power back on and making things safe for all after storms and accidents; and Whereas there would be no electric cooperatives without the brave men and women who comprise our corps of linemen;

Therefore be it resolved that NRECA recognize the Second Monday of April of each year as National Lineman Appreciation Day and make available to electric cooperatives, materials and support to recognize the contributions of these valuable men and women to America’s Electric Cooperatives.”

We proudly recognize all electric linemen for the services they perform around the clock in dangerous conditions to keep power flowing and protect the public’s safety.

“Electric linemen do not often receive the recognition they deserve,” said Clay Campbell, General Manager/CEO. “They work all hours of the day, often in hazardous conditions far from their families, going above and beyond to restore power to their communities. Our linemen, as well as linemen from across the nation, truly deserve this special day of recognition.”

"expatsincebirth: What kind of memories will our TCK’s share with us?"

expatsincebirth: What memories will our expat children share?

Comments0 comments

As a parent raising expat children abroad, you may feel the loss of not being able to relive your childhood memories with your children. But will they feel the loss, too?

I got inspired by a post from MaDonna about what she calls the feout season – the 'fear and doubt' season – parents can have while raising children or TCKs (third culture kids) abroad.

The feout season is when we would like our children to experience those memorable moments we experienced in our childhood. When we visit the places we've lived in, we would like our children to understand how life was then, how we felt and what our experiences were.

I remember that my parents did the same with my sister and me: they showed us the places they used to live in Germany and Belgium and told us about their memories and experiences there (before moving to Italy, where we grew up). Well, they were just 'stories' for us. We couldn't really picture them doing the things they told us and not really understand what they felt. What I recall and really cherish today, are the things we did and experienced together.

MaDonna mentions that sometimes she would like "to make up for all the losses (her children) have because of the decision (she) made years ago (...) to live overseas."

I understand this feeling. But I'm pretty sure that our children don't feel the same way. How can you feel a loss of something you haven't had? Maybe we, as parents, do feel the loss – but that's our problem, not our children's. And I don't really think that our children miss out something because they don't have the opportunity to experience the same magic moments we experienced at some point of our life. They have their own magic moments and experiences and they will have other memories than ours, and that's fine. And this doesn't apply to TCKs only, but also to children who grow up in the same country, maybe the same city or street, their parents did. It's life.

When we raise TCKs, we can only give our children the chance to experience some aspects of the cultures we used to live in that they don't experience in their daily life by visiting those places or by celebrating festivities we cherish. By naturally integrating part of these cultures into our daily life, we can build memories about what we would like our children to share with us. But we shouldn't expect our children to like the same things we used to like.

I remember that my parents wanted me to appreciate some things in Germany – they really tried hard. Some things I still remember and can relate to, some others I disliked or forgot. For example, I still remember my grandma baking wonderful cakes (she was a baker); I remember the smell when I walked into her kitchen and I remember how she would spend hours and hours making jam, sirup etc. and telling me all about food. I remember how my German family used to celebrate the festivities and how different it was in Italy.

When I visit the places of my memories with my children, I tell them stories. It's like describing a painting without seeing it. Everyone will picture another painting, with other colours, shapes etc. but this shouldn't matter. What matters is sharing the moment.

When we raise our children in another country (or city) than we used to live or grew up, we have to realise that our children, one day, will have the same feelings toward the place(s) that they grew up in. Later, they will probably be telling their children what they used to do during their childhood or some other moment in their lives. Maybe they will remember the stories we told them while we walked down our memory lane, maybe they won't.

By my own experience I know that they will be fine. I don't think that TCKs 'survive' their experience, they live it. And as parents, we should help them to build memorable moments with us, here, right now, today.

Under the IMC routing tab add the new donain as inbound. Also assuming some of your users are and others are you will have to manually edit their SMTP addresses to reflect this. You can add the extra address for each user and then set the default you want the user to send as.

I am trying to disable the use of the shift key on startup.  I am using an Access 2003 (Access Data Project).  I am using the change property function on the MS site but it has no effect.

No probs.

It was required back in Access 97.
And I'd say that many developers (myself included) have just kept using their same old stock function.
(I made the above function up just now :-)

It would work in Access 2000 onwards (which is where ADP's can feature too).
Your previous function would generally work in Access 2003 mdb's - but in an ADP there is no Jet engine processing, no DAO library - and the DAO objects (like CurrentDb) aren't created.

Sonicwall Firewall looses internet connection randomly

Posted on 2009-04-03
Medium Priority
Last Modified: 2012-05-06
I am having problems with one of my remote offices looses their internet connections several times a day. They loose connectivity with our main office servers, and also the msn messenger and web access goes down. A "break" lasts for about 3 to 4 minutes. I have spoken to the ISP , who claims that they cannot se any breaks on the line and everything seems fine.

Both firewalls are TZ180's

When the firewall is down i can not reach it through the vpn connection , or through https via the internet. Hence i conclude that it is not only the vpn connection that is down , but the whole firewall.

On the remote firewall i have the following error message(s) :

22      04/03/2009 08:59:13.483      IKE negotiation aborted due to timeout
23      04/03/2009 08:58:40.483      IKE Initiator: No response - remote party timeout, 500, 500
24      04/03/2009 08:58:23.483      IKE Initiator: No response - remote party timeout, 500, 500
25      04/03/2009 08:58:12.483      IKE Initiator: No response - remote party timeout, 500, 500
26      04/03/2009 08:58:06.633      IKE Initiator: Start Main Mode negotiation (Phase 1), 500, 500

while on the main office firewall is get the following error messages :

04/03/2009 08:58:22.016      Info      VPN IKE      IKE Responder: Remote party timeout - Retransmitting IKE request., 500, 500      VPN Policy: GS Bildeler Bergen

04/03/2009 08:58:12.704      Warning      VPN IKE      Received packet retransmission. Drop duplicate packet, 500, 500      VPN Policy: GS Bildeler Bergen

04/03/2009 08:58:12.016      Info      VPN IKE      IKE Responder: Remote party timeout - Retransmitting IKE request., 500, 500      VPN Policy: GS Bildeler Bergen

04/03/2009 08:58:06.864      Info      VPN IKE      IKE Responder: Received Main Mode request (Phase 1), 500, 500

I suspect these error messages rely only to vpn communication, but i can not see any other error messages that gives me any reason why the firewall looses internet connection.

This problem is starting to annoy me :), any help is deeply appreciated.

Yours sincerly

if i was you first thing i'd be setting up is a constant 'ping' to their IP address. if you've got MRTG / PRTG or the like, graph it.. so you can see what is happening with the link itself..

maybe you have a device on the internet between the two sites that is playing up.. (happens a lot)..

do a traceroute from your site to the end customers.. print it out..

next time the link goes down, do a ping test of about 100 pings to each IP in order from your's to the end site and see which one is playing up.. if none of them are and the vpn is still timing out, i'd be looking at a firmware upgrade on the sonicwall .. then test again..

Do you have a Linux machine available? If so, get and run something like SmokePing, or Nagios. This will keep a regular watch on the remote site via any accessable route (SmokePing pings, of course, but Nagios can be told to check for web server, pop server, etc., when you tell it what to expect).

You need to find out - is the *network* connection dying, is the router dyign, or is the Sonicwall playing up?

If you can't watch it constantly, take some manual ping and traceroute readings when you know the ilne is up, then, next time it's down, run the same tests and compare results.

Do they reboot anythign at the remote site to "fix" it or does it just come back by itself?

Whilst it's down, can you gety them to look at the lights on the router, the firewall, etc? Is there anyone at the remote site who can be tasked to run some tests looking outwards when its' down, e.g. ping the firewall, ping the router, ping an internet server, ping YOUR firewall...

Break it down into simple steps, test each step, narrow down the affected step...

Nagios is they way to go.  In addition to what ccomley has said, Nagios can do more than ping and check for responses on public ports, it does more complicated stuff like downloading a file and testing it's contents - if it's what you expect then your web server and apps are in good shape, etc.  Nagios will also email you on status change (both down and up), and there's a Nagios add-on for Firefox which constantly monitors and alerts you if the browser is open.  Nagios will also keep a history.

Hi all,

I need to plot multiple locations on google map dynamically. I have the adresses in a database and depending on context, I will need to show on a web browser differents addresses.
   What I need is to know how to pass parameters to in order to see those multiple locations.  This way, I would program "the string" to pass to the web browser.  Anyone has clues?  Thank's in advance!

You appear to have three separate problems:

1) displaying the data once you have it. (which you asked about)
2) getting the data to the browser.
3) Selecting data from the database

Task 1 can be solved by looking at the tutorials at  In particular part 3 will show how to display locations by Loading the data from an XML file.

Task 2,3  can be solved by having your server create an XML file, and then writing some ajax code to read an XML file dynamically from your server.

Actually you do not need to do it using XML, and format will work as long as writer and reader agree about it.
