![]() They’re also much louder and work with fewer smart-home systems. ![]() To our eyes, MySmartBlinds aren’t as attractive as Lutron’s options (due to an unsightly wand and cord). They can be set on Schedules-without the need to buy a smart hub-and can be configured to react to temperature changes and adjust accordingly (Lutron Serena Blinds can do this, but only if you buy an additional temperature sensor). If you hope to cover a number of large windows with smart blinds, SmarterHome’s MySmartBlinds may make that more approachable budget-wise. Although the blinds can be tilted on command, you can’t use a controller to raise or lower them-you have to manually push them up or pull them down, as you would with other modern blinds.Ĭompatibility: Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant (not Google Home) ![]() And they can be configured on a Schedule or included in Scenes (a series of settings changes among one or more devices) with other Lutron devices. Serena blinds can also be set to close and open automatically whenever you leave or arrive home. An excellent Natural Light Optimization feature tilts the blinds automatically as the sun moves throughout the day, ensuring your room has balanced light while minimizing glare. And they work with Lutron’s smart-home ecosystem for control with the Lutron app, which also enables integration with Amazon Alexa or Google Home (strangely, there’s no HomeKit or SmartThings compatibility, as there is with Serena Shades). They are custom-made to order and available in eight color options. ![]() But they’re also the most expensive, starting at $599. The Lutron Serena Smart Wood Blinds have the best smart-home integrations and most innovative features of any of the smart blinds we considered or tested. If the installation challenge is daunting, or you’re considering the YouTube videos that show you how to “hack” Fytur shades so they fit your window, we’d say skip the headache-there are better options. But considering the reasonable price for these shades, we think it’s hard to complain. That said, the included remote is a bit finicky, and installation and setup can be just as frustrating as it is when you’re putting together an IKEA cabinet. And the removable, rechargeable battery lasted six months before needing to be recharged. The Fyrtur shades are well made, and in our testing they worked reliably. The shades can be controlled using Apple HomeKit, Amazon Alexa, and Google Home, as long as you buy IKEA’s $70 Dirigera internet gateway (a small device that wirelessly connects your shades and is plugged into your router). If your window openings fit one of the eight available sizes of IKEA’s Fyrtur shades (ours didn’t), and you like the industrial exposed hardware and gray blackout fabric look (we do!), then these inexpensive smart shades are a great, budget-friendly option.

It took about 10 minutes for the firewall to start issuing DHCP and giving the computers IP addresses. Other than that, it seems to be running as I'm posting through the firewall right now. In my case, it turned out to be the farthest and second farthest ports from the motherboard on the add-on EXPI9404PTL card. Unlike the virtual machine however, pressing 'y' actually rebooted the machine at the end of the install.Īfter installation, I had to experiment plugging Ethernet cables into each of the six network adapters to find out what was "port 1" and "port 2". The installation screens looked exactly like the VM. The compatibility support mode was turned on to allow "legacy" boot. In addition to the 2 network adapters on the motherboard, I have 4 other adapters from an expansion card (an old IBM EXPI9404PTL).

I ejected the virtual disk and pressed "Y", but I didn't get a reboot. The wizard just fails if you don't have that setup, so you may have to shut off the machine and swap cables around if you get the order wrong.Īfter about a minute of a blank screen (I was wondering if the installer was broken), I get this prompt to overwrite the entire contents of the one and only virtual hard drive.Īfter telling it to format the drive, it went into this text only installer, which took about 8 minutes. Again pay special attention to the fact that the internal switch is the first NIC and the external connection is the second NIC.Here's the settings of the virtual machine: (SULFUR is the name of the machine I'm writing this review from) Additionally, the SSD is encrypted with Bitlocker using the "new" encryption method that was released after Windows 10 version 1803.

The VM had a single 40GB hard drive configured. Since I couldn't find solid articles on whether it has a UEFI loader, I opted for the "Generation 1" virtual machine that uses BIOS. I had to redo the install wizard because I later found it really wanted to have the Internet connection on Ethernet port 2 and LAN on port 1 - (hard-coded, and the opposite of PFSense / OPNSense.).It appears to be the same as the license for the free Sophos Home anti-malware on the Mac, so here's some of the highlights: ISO, as is typical, I get the giant EULA.

I've used both PFSense and OPNSense on my PC which have awesome amounts of bells and whistles, but I thought the intrusion prevention (Snort / Suricata) UI wasn't very intuitive, throwing tons of false positives. I stumbled upon this software by accident while trying to find out if someone studied how much malware gets stopped by third-party antivirus on a Mac (nope, although Av-Test has numbers for Windows Defender and Google Play Protect). TL DR: The only thing "Home" about it is the non-commercial license clause - it's really a small/medium business firewall product. ![]() ![]() I decided to do a quick (experimented for 4 hours) review on this oddball proprietary router / firewall 'firmware', Sophos XG Firewall Home Edition. ![]() ![]() ![]() Between 19, around 400 enrollees worked in the cave.

Appreciation and Preservation of Colossal Caveīy 1917, a local entrepreneur started offering auto tours to “Colossal Cave.” Five years later, German immigrant, Frank Schmidt, obtained a mineral lease for land around and including the cave. In 1905, a tunnel was excavated to mine the guano. The robbers never noticed the Cave’s real riches – bat guano. The “Mountain Springs Cave” – as it came to be known – attained legendary status when train robbers reportedly used it on two separate occasions as a hideout. ![]() Within no time he was leading a few tours into what local newspapers dubbed the “Arizona Catacombs.” Mortars, such as this one found inside the cave, provide insight into how the cave was used in prehistoric times (Photo: Megan Kopp) In 1879, a local rancher named Solomon Lick stumbled across the cave. It remained a campsite for the Tohono O’odham and the Apache people up until historic times, but the cave remained a secret to settlers moving westward until the 19 thcentury. Archaeologists know that Colossal Cave was used as a temporary shelter by the Hohokam as early as 900 A.D.

Or perhaps they’ll do something completely different because God has a tendency to surprise us. Perhaps they’ll become mamas, patiently, diligently loving their babies day in and day out. Perhaps they’ll travel across oceans and share the gospel with people who have never heard. Perhaps they’ll go to college and grow and stretch their faith in new ways. When I think about who my children might become some day and what they might do, I get excited. We pray, teach, discipline, and love, but all of those things are a means to an end, and the end goal is to launch. And in the same way, we parents spend years crafting our children into arrows that God can use. They are carefully crafted for the explicit purpose of being launched. To be launched, of course! Arrows are not intended to just sit in the quiver, weighing it down and taking up space. How joyful is the man whose quiver is full of them! Children born to a young man are like arrows in a warrior’s hands. ![]() I hear many parents today lamenting their children’s departure, as if their stories are ending, when in reality, they’ve only finished the introduction to a masterpiece still being written.Ĭhildren are a gift from the Lord they are a reward from him. But raising our children in order to launch them is what our mission as parents is all about. Does that sound strange? Don’t misunderstand me – I will miss her terribly! And I’m so thankful that day isn’t soon. ![]() However, when I think about my oldest daughter moving out and going to college (or whatever she decides to do after high school), I don’t feel tears welling up as much as excitement. What will become of these kids who have learned so much yet have so much to learn? They are at a crossroads, and only time will tell which direction their futures will head.Īs a mom, I know that in ten short years I’ll likely be where these parents stand – with an SUV backed into the crowded parking lot of a college dormitory, unloading cleaning supplies, cute wall decor, and a shaggy rug. Proud, teary eyed parents, beaming teenagers, decked out dorm rooms, and an air of uncertainty adorn the photos. This past fall a photo stream of parents dropping their kids off at college filled my social media newsfeeds. ![]() ![]() ![]() The Asura's Armor increases base Defense by 42. Check the blue monolith at the top of the ladder, and the last of the sand in Section 1 will drain.The Asura's Armor is an Armor-class piece of armor found in Golden Sun and Golden Sun: Dark Dawn. Grip over there, then hop left to follow the path until you exit the room on the northwest side. You'll see a stone cone just within range of your Grip spell. Climb your ladder again, then walk left as far as you can. Hop across the stones to the left to pick up a Cookie from the treasure box, then hop back to the right. Return to the previous room, then descend the ladder. Now, you'll need to ride each pad in turn, and it will finally take you to the Djinni. Shove the right pillar as far to the right as it can go (so it lines up with the teleport path that leads to the right), remove of the now-left pillar from the equation, and finally put the now-center pillar in the left hole. Then, ride the original pad back down to the ground level. First, cast Search near the blue monolith to reveal another teleport pad on the left ledge. To get him, you're going to have to take a pretty roundabout path. This drains the sand, which also reveals a Djinni. This takes you to the top of the left ledge, and there you can read the blue monolith. When you do that, ride the ground-level teleport pad to continue. The right pillar, the one with a vertical path that also crosses the top of the pillar itself, is simply moved one tile to the left. However, this time around, there are only two holes: the left pillar goes in the right hole, and the center pillar goes in the left hole. Once again, you have a teleport pad with a broken path, as well as three moveable pillars. ![]() Not only can you ride the teleport pads now, but an exit has opened up in the southwest corner of the room. Return to the previous room, and you'll see that the sand is gone. You'll need to ride this pad over to the treasure, then ride it back to escape. Second, descend the nearby ladder and cast Search on the sparks to reveal another teleport pad. First, you need to shuffle the pillars by putting the now-right pillar in the center hole, the now-left pillar in the right hole, and the now-center pillar anywhere else (in the left hole if you want, or you can just leave it out of the path entirely). To reach it, you'll need to do two things. Teleport back down, and you'll notice that there is a treasure chest below you to the left. You'll find yourself on the top ledge, where you can read the second red monolith and drain the sand. Position them accordingly, then stand on the ground-level portal. The solution here is simple: the left pillar goes in the right hole, the center pillar goes in the left hole, and the right pillar goes in the center hole. This room has a pair of portals, but the path is cut because of a few moveable pillars that need to be lined up in alcoves in the wall. Simply bypass the portals and enter the third and final room in this section to continue. The thing with this room is that you can actually walk on the sand, just like you did in the room above, so you don't have to hop on anything. Ergo, you need to drain the sand from the floor before continuing on. There are portals on the ground like the ones you took to get here, but their paths hit the sand in the floor, which stops your movement. The first room is just a hall, but the second room introduces a puzzle. This section has three rooms with no exits other than the ladder you just climbed down, so it's pretty simple to navigate. ![]() ![]() ![]() Will you chart a path to success and love? Or will you be alone and miserable? Will you take the straight and narrow path? Or take risks and live life on the edge? The choice is yours to make.
