Today I tried access one website within company’s network which was very important to me. But the site loaded incompletely and so was not usable.

As always, company network is somehow restricted, for example, only output port 80 and 443 are enabled in my company’s network. As many companies do, McAfee software is used to restrict internal employees surfing the internet. So I firstly thought McAfee was the culprit.

As I’m using chrome browser, so I press F12 to open the developer tools. On “Network” tab(you may need ctrl+F5 to forcely refresh the website), I found the following error status:

Then I opened that url source in a new tab, and the following page occured:

So everything sorted! I clicked the button “click here if you have read ….”, and then went back to the site, refresh, and later everything was ok!

NO!

Greenwich Mean Time

Tonight(30th October 2011), we’ll welcome the GMT(Greenwich Mean Time) and hug away BST(British Summer Time, Daylight Saving Time) at 01:59:59 30th October 2011.

Why BST/DST(British Summer Time, Daylight Saving Time) achives the goal of saving energy? As you may think I still am going to work 8 hours a day and 365 days a year(may be too much? :D). OK, here’s what I think.

As we all can experience, the sun arise earlier in Summer than in Autumn. So when you wake up in the morning, you’ll do not need turn on the light, that does save the energy. And another extreme example, one man sleeps all the day and play games all the night, and another man sleeps all the night and work all the day, which one do you think is more environmentally friendly? Actually, this was why Benjamin Franklin, the man on $100, suggest DST(Daylight Saving Time).
