Strange squidguard log entries
Mar 3rd
I look after an IPCop firewall in a remote office for a small company. Yesterday I noticed some odd internal IP addresses appearing in some categories of the squidguard logs. These addresses don’t appear anywhere else on the network or logs so I was somewhat puzzled.
It turns out that these were entries from the same day of the month but one, or even two years ago. logrotate is set to rotate the squidguard log files, but only once they reach a size of 100k. The least found categories will obviously have fewer entries so may well cover a period longer than a year.
When viewed in the web gui, only the day and month is searched, and subsequently listed, so today I see entries for 03 March – but, of course, not just for this year.
Insulating roman blinds
Mar 3rd
HeatSaver Shades UK for thermal roman blinds.
Heat loss through windows and patio doors can account for 25 to 50 percent of your monthly heating bill. HeatSaver Thermal Blinds effectively prevent 90 percent of this costly and unnecessary loss.
This appears to be new idea and still undergoing research and evaluation, a multi-layered highly insulated roman blind.
Thin profile double glazed units
Mar 3rd
Slimlite Double Glazed Units are a new concept in the construction of a double glazed units which with a 5mm perimeter seal depth and can be glazed into most single glazed windows.
In my browsing through conservation and energy saving sites I have just come across this site. They produce double glazed units as thin as 11mm, as well existing frames, they should be suitable for use in conservation areas and listed buildings as well.
