What do you really want to know? This is what I read from the piece of log you posted:

These are about internal hosts 10.10.10.71 and 10.10.10.72 trying to time sync using NTP from 192.43.244.18 (time.nist.gov). Would be safe I think to allow, if you wanted to.

These are probably about internal hosts 10.10.10.152 and 10.10.10.119 trying to open SSL (HTTPS) pages at 72.14.203.100 and 64.94.18.201.
All of this is apparently logged (and likely blocked) by your iptables ruleset.
