Post subject: Calibre for 6t4 and x7 (and maybe more)
Subject description: more word processing and related
the earlier 32bit Calibre-2.5 package from the
updated and condensed quicklinks
didn't work for me in 6t4 despite installation of the 32bit lib pack, but the code for the most recent releases directly from
sudo -v && wget -nv -O- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kovidgoyal/calibre/master/setup/linux-installer.py | sudo python -c "import sys; main=lambda:sys.stderr.write('Download failed\n'); exec(sys.stdin.read()); main()"
gives calibre 2.71 64 bit to the tahr64 spin and the 32 bit version to the newest (704) 32 bit xenialpup (roughly modded as much as the tahr64 installation, but since it's still running off the original iso, i'm not calling it a spin. that said, this should apply to tahr64/32 in general, and possibly also to the precise spin or pups of more or less that period. i plan on having the precise spin redone and released in a week or two, but right now i can't test.)
download code failed for me in xenial64-707
here's a desktop file:
you can grab an icon here:
(desktop file is set to use "calibre.png" as /usr/share/applications/icons-alt/calibre.png. run
fixmenus; jwm -restart
after putting the icon there and desktop file in /usr/share/applications (change the icon line of the desktop file to reflect a different path or icon choice if you like)). "calibre" (no quotes) in a terminal will also launch it.
dillo opens in a second or so, focuswriter in under ten[...]
been playing around a bit more with focuswriter. once run, even if closed during that pup session (i.e. you haven't rebooted or restarted X), the program will open nearly as fast as dillo. delay in swapping between focuswriter sessions (i.e. your themes and sets of documents remembered and stored) is also about a second or two.

Post subject: some browser updates and a dual monitor tip
Subject description: also an openvpn update for the precise spins by OscarTalks
here's a 64 bit firefox for the tahr spin--it also cleans up the root 1 (left click) menu a bit:
another browser option for 64 bit is
Mike Walsh's
iron55 64
for the 32 bit spins,
iron55 32
slimjet 12.0.14
, and for the precise spin specifically, there's
his updated
the arandr utility for monitor setup gives you the option to save your settings, but you may have noticed that the default location for it isn't of much use and you have to reactivate the thing at every startup--save your settings in /root/Startup rather than the default proffered by the gui to avoid the hassle.

didn't work out that way, but i have updated the workshop (
). from
nwp8 (32 and 64 bit--ns is new syntax (32 bit pups after slacko 5.7)) cleans up the root one menu, fixes some permissions problems, adds a few scripts (33/66 (bounce the mouse cursor out and down (default positions for popups (etc) sometimes interfere with functions and i find these two scripts help), and icono/iconsesame, which should make it easier to customize your icons, mime types and file labeling), some custom configs for the urxvt terminal…) and takes the recommended add-ins out (see nwprecs1 and nwprecs2, which add folders by those names in /root. included in each is an install and a remove script, the contents of which are shown below). nwp8 also includes the improvements made to the mcc (make concurrent copies (and optionally label them) utility: http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=102846 ).

pm installer is already part of the nwp (i should've removed it). thanks to aragon, radky, RSH, SFR, rerwin, don570, 01micko, Barry Kauler, shinobar, trio, rcrsn51, disciple, technosaurus, step, musher0, Geoffrey, Corvus, OscarTalks, mavrothal, gyro, watchdog, MochiMoppel, peebee, Whitesnow, 666philb,...
clicking the install script will give you a popup asking you if you want to install each item. the remove script just empties its respective folder of the pets.
pets are down to about 8mb. version 7 (slightly more busy root1/left click menu) also comes as an SFS (same 3 variations).
pdogfellow 12/16
it is what it does, so see
launcher shortcuts
keyboard shortcuts
for (perhaps) a better idea.
(barring that, it uses short commands, the keys, screen artifacts (stuff you click or activate with a mouse or finger), and/or popup menus to launch files, programs, text strings, commands (including resizing, moving, and/or reshaping windows) or mimic the menus (or select aspects thereof arranged to your tastes) of more or less any programs you choose, in a way better suited to you and your habits than stock/default…---; use a minimalistic or limited text editor plus a browser as a full word processor, have nine more menus than most stock jwm pup setups, and for my part, i'd so much rather have it than not that i document all the changes i make to it and make sure it's available to me as soon as i fire up a new pup (often i use woofy to install it before i actually boot a pup for the first time, which is incidentally the original reason for the external pet installs--don's right click package and Whitesnow's (oops, thanks, Whitesnow--big omission (now fixed)--your dropbox package is awesome--been using it for pretty much as long as i've been using puppy/linux--it's much better than what i tried to put together for megasync (though, granted, you know what you're doing and i'm a noob (NWP--Noob's Word Processor/Ultimatesque Utility Pack)) mydbox require choices that are better left unautomated; this will turn out to be easier to upgrade for future builds anyway so no real setback...)--so much for brevity.
pharmacology and programming...and psych lab, i'm guessing…(interdisciplinary academia--i'm count curricula (,shae).
i'm guessing could be cut...would make the "from" that starts this off a bit more accurate...)
p.dogfellow (later the same day).
the custom root2 menu (exists also as a submenu/sample template on 0 and 9) requires some additional plugins over base pup. i mostly use geany 125 and 127, the latter my only 32 bit version going at the moment. the folders containing the geany plugins (and/or geany; upgrade precise (this and the 125 plugins courtesy of Corvus) from 123 to 125, which is why the 32 version is so much larger) contain scripts similar to those for the rec'd pet installs:

yet to be addressed:
alternate file system and navigation in general (keep out of root, make it easier to find and link to your stuff across pups)
the virtual keypad(s) (relates in part back to the custom program menus on some of the jwm and aemenu popus…)
settings, file, and config porting/backup (see /nwp/pet folder, the links above, or the main support thread for more. there's also a bit of it now as part of the rox right click menu.)
panel frame and pinboard switching
the vtg (part of the nwp (noop) installation. link is (was) to
Geany as Launcher, Bookmarks Manager, and Word Processor
open programs, files, folders and web sites; reshape and resize windows; process words
(...no point in making this as long as the support threads--launcher shortcuts file explains much of it and keyboard and menu config files are heavily commented)...
about a month ago i said i'd have a redone from scratch precise spin. i don't (other things got in the way), but i do miss my precise install (still not sure if i should make 11t or 5p to replace the x7 that's not running audio without missing a beat (codecs missing) or eating swap space (audacious can play (but not mp4, flv) without the problem; deadbeef and vlc suffer from the problem, but can play just about anything until the stuttering and freezing kick in. that is, on my installation; to my knowledge, no one else has reported the problem).
so, no new ~572.15 (or ~572.14.1 or p575.1, or p5/6p (check the p6 wall paper for the 5, 6, boomerang, rock star with fist raised hybrid thingie) or approximatic'd precise spin for now, but i have reupped (thanks to ally's repo--was gone from mine (cloud and hardware) for a time) the 573_no_abi(.)iso that started all the precise spins from the ~572.14 thread (p575 was the name of one of the first, nearly semi-polished versions), and that plus recs1, recs2, and recs5p will give most of the basis for a version you can precustomize (cut out things before they go in, add things with the first (re)build…). compressed recs folder for precise has the same click to install script for the following (bash, dbus (for dropbox), and libgtk (for modern firefoxes) are the bare minimum i'd suggest. also the firewall and ssl upgrades, i guess. everything else (just about) is more for function than security or epoch-meshing (i think a pup in use today should be able to run a modern firefox, libreoffice, and dropbox, but i suppose you could do without any or all).
install script/contents of recs5p:
petget ./bash-4.3.30-1.pet
#petget ./CamPhoneTab-1.6.pet
#petget ./CamPhoneTab_Hotplug-1.1.pet
#see [url]http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=881561#881561[/url]. i can't test at the moment and for the foreseeable (not sure when i'll get around to replacing my phone and/or the apparently faulty SD card it's carrying). one version of the recs had this added afterward (i saw an update was available) and so it gets left out of the install script and left behind after the removal script runs. it asks you for interaction (beyond the yes or no for the other pets--plug in your device, unplug your device--think that's it (many pets going at the same time in woofy)). it's in development (not all hardware can use it?), and other packages are discussed. again, see thread for more (but i like rcrsn's stuff in general and would like to include something like this in whatever 32 or 64 bit spins i make in the future (not sure when or if i'll i'll get around to trying woof-ce. right now i just want replacements for what's running on an old asus netbook and a new dell laptop (xenial almost-spins (32 and 64 bit, the latter having just crapped out (long drop box update and a hasty shutoff and running zensound for about five days with the lid closed (construction next door))...have some new flash drives, so maybe a quirky, 5p, and 11t to compare on with 6t4 on one of the machine's running it (pruned some old installations and am about to make new backups/go-tos).

that's most of the necessities to make the base an approximatic spin. just add recoll (also in this folder--earlier versions had 113, this time around i'd try the same 117 i plan on using for 11t (6t4 uses the 64 bit version of it. couldn't get recoll to run on xenial64, but 121 is running on x7/"x7")) and its deps and helpers (folders contain all, but one helper (mutagen) for the 64 bit spin is the same as the one for the 32 bit spin and is not duplicated (though a few others may fit that category and in fact appear in both places). add/remove packages and alter the install script to reflect custom choices for future installations (or delete the whole thing when you're done. sometimes it's convenient, sometimes it's not. usually a combo).
regarding 573_n0abi and the primordial spins:
the original thread at some point (added things ala strata after a bit) started out with:
they start as precise 5.7.1 patched to 5.7.2, which gives them save folder functionality [mavrothal and gyro], fixes the bash problem, and updates the sfs load program to shinobar's latest (2.3). i replaced the unstable abiword with ted, even though you could get formatted text from notecase and just use google docs to turn it into odt, doc, docx, etc. i left in seamonkey for similar reasons and because of Barry Kauler's affinity for it. also removed were osmo, planner, rubix, and emeraldia or whatever it was called. p573 adds the following:
I'm not sure how many of those packages have been removed beyond abiword (there may have been one more alteration to the base before i began to crank the variations out), but i know neither 573_noabi.iso nor the recs packages contain the additional file managers (spacefm and pcman--thing was designed to be robust/with the idea that things would break 9i would break them) and it would be better if that didn't matter) or ted. spacefm (
(spacefm thread, but you can grab that and pcman from the repo)) needs a symlink from /usr/share to /usr/local/share. use the remove_builtins program (i usually navigate to it via the applications (sorry, didn't capitalize it there either) item on the right click menu) to remove whatever you like, but keep in mind that Barry's original T2-compiled apps are very tiny for what they are (and some were apparently small to begin with--removing seamonkey (the whole suite--composer, browser, chat, mail), the games mentioned above, and abiword i think saved less than 25 megabytes off the main sfs. ted is lighter than abi, but i prefer either Roughdraft (under wine) or, better still, at least under Linux, and just as light, at least in the approximatics, Focuswriter (2.5 mb in precise spins that use Recoll and/or something else i've added incidentally that also takes care of the majority of the up to 9-12 megabytes or so of dependencies).
the mega--p,t,u,x(1204debndep).tar.xz packages (
) available one folder out (and in the browsers, internet, (etc) folder) work for precise and apparently many other 32 bit pups (
), but have been problematic/inconsistent for me in 64bit. they (and their deps) are another oversight and should have been in the precise-to-approximatic pack.
some older screenshots (ae and jwm popup menus, the p5/6 wallpaper i mentioned earlier…) and links to pcman and spacefm:
other known issues: the wmctrl close all instances scripts don't work in 64bit, two or three tray settings could use some tweaking (will be part of the update script from .6 (6t4 plus update1) to .9)...you may have to reinstall xdotool through your PPM if using 64 bit (generally if alt+arrow squirts your window across the screen, the xdotool that came over with the pet's okay. next step would be to test some of the autotext scripts in the launcher (i usually test with scz ("make this text file a script", i.e. it autotexts out (tada! (if you're watching me write this live)) #!/bin/sh) in the launcher)).
seems i forgot to add woofy to the recs as well:
(woofy-0.91.pet mirrored in the mostly_common_32 folder/thanks to sc0ttman)
i had been manually adding the configs, folders, and files that comprise the nwp pets, then resquashing the file system, but it turns out making pets and then installing them through woofy is for the most part easier (same goes for manually reconfiguring a running pup--using pets for the new files and configs (and optionally activating what's generally just a few simple copy and backup scripts--the pinstall.sh(punistall.sh) script(s) and whatever, if anything, it (they) call (calls--last of parentheticalling out the uninstall part of the combo--good practice suggests you fill it with the countermeasures to your install script and pet installation, but i view the nwp as concrete with regards to its place in respins so am a bit remiss with this, the rather large (and apparently functioning) uninstall scripts circa nwp32/64.4 that you can find in the main nwp thread (and postdated pets) notwithstanding) is easier than repeating the process for each installation/update).
some more on pinstall/uninstall in general and as it relates to nwp installation, configuring, and removal:

(i.e. "my39" in the launcher activates that particular set of configuration files); my39r reverses it, but only to the previous configuration. this is to say, installing, playing around with the configuration switches, and then getting back to your preinstall config while leaving the rest of the functions in tact may lead to some unfortunate backtracking--making the originals a quickswitch avoids any headaches and brings up a point about customizing your own (or sets of your own) wm features--anything you do to the contents of the root#menus folders in /nwp/root3 and their associated files will stick as a quickswitch and the feature mod (the tray, key, and menu config files for the nine extra menus (x3), the 6 keycentric configs, the thirty or so trays are all there) will be a part of the swapped in customizations, but you must mod the files in nwp/root3/, not the ones in their system-active places in root/.jwm and /etc/xdg/templates to make them portable (though you could always run the above two lines adjusted to the destination folder of your choice (or drag and drop manually--rl in the launcher then c gets you there...there's a keycut...my guess is alt plus j...(woo hoo)(rung is h for keys launcher, j for rox launcher, k for geany, l for leafpad)...---make changes, restart jwm to see if you like them, copy them to those folders in nwp/root3 if you want to make them swappable. the new menus on scroll up and down and mae (ae menu launched by that code in main launcher) have the quickswitches plus links to edit or activate the keys, trays, menus, etc. you can edit the files to include menus from elsewhere, but all the presets are fed from that folder. make a file of the above repeated for menus30-49 and you could vtg in your current settings at any time with a click of the cauliflower (etc).

links formatted for (my) later/eventual forum posting (though i thought i'd document and do that for .7):
for more on customizing your JWM setup, see
Joe's site

where things are, where it's at (,or maybe just what it is)
updates to the nwp and the workshop folder
(the forum post will have better links so i'll copy/paste that back here as an improved version of the original).
eventually i became familiar enough with Puppy Linux that hours of customization and tinkering became portable and one click installable--most of the delays with spin making come from keeping the system generic enough to (re)offer the public (the nwp is the approximatic). anyway, here's a link to the main, as yet unupdated nwp (A Noob's Word Processor/Ultimatesque Utilities (UU/W) Pack(/NWP/nwp/noop/anubis/anuupus/,etc)) thread:
NWP/A NWPUS--A Noob's Word Processor and Utilities Suite
this is the thread (which will eventually be) formerly known as
A NWP/A NWPUS--A Nooby Word Processor and Utilities Suite
robust, extensible, and superseded in ministrosity by pu(/)up!
posts starting midway down the linked page give a decent overview (including the launcher and keyboard codes minus what's mentioned at the start of this document):
will update the quick links and repost the updated launcher codes and keyboard stuff before the next release. new nwp cleans up the left click menu the same as the earlier firefox pet. when nwp.9 comes out i'll offer a patch pet for whatever the last version of 6t4 is at the time (other spins should just (back up your customizations or personal files first) reinstall the newer nwp over the older one (your old nwp configs will get ported by the new one, but personal files stored in the nwp file system should probably be petted or otherwise backed up when installing a new one. same goes for any scripts you've altered).

Subject description: also a fix for the scripts that open the icon directories
enter the following in a terminal to fix the icon scripts:
echo $'#!/bin/sh
#iconsesame and icono (which is a shorter call code; user should alter/differentiate them)

i'll probably make a small fix pet that includes the above, a fix for the missing anubis/anwpus icon (you can grab one of four versions from the support folder in the meantime if you like), the improved root one menu, and whatever permission errors i can track down before i release the next nwp.
using nwp8, i had to reinstall xdotool on a pristine tahr64-605 (so you may have to as well--it was there, it should have worked, ...

Subject description: sakura for spins other than the (precise based) approximatics
the interface on OscarTalk's sakura-2.4.2-i486-w5.pet is a little different than the one
in the launcher pops up in the precise spins, but now x7 (and likely 11t("11t"--since it's more a kit than a release than even x7) and u6, though i haven't tested it--it was made for wary so should work in most 32bit pups) and 6t4 can use that included launcher shortcut and the sakura terminal. the right click pop up menu (including copy and paste and all customizations) may be preferable to some than the middle click and highlight paste-copy of urxvt/rxvt. to change the terminal that pops up when t is entered in the nwp launcher (or t in the regular terminal/the launcher itself if for some reason the "/nwp/" didn't get wiped of its highlighting when shift+spacebar was pressed), use ll (double el) in the launcher and then enter t, move the hashtag from sakura to rxvt, and save the file. to do the same for the one that's the fallback for resetting the terminal (if the computer's busy, sometimes the xdotool command to sweep right doesn't get called in time and you either have to arrow right or reset (p) the terminal (t, but f is findnrun, which can usually get you what you want as well)), enter "
" (leafpad at ..(my-apps)../bin) and then do the same thing with the hashtag.
to add a script/function to the launcher (i just added sfl to my own--"sfs-load" runs shinobar's SFS-Load-On-The-Fly, which i find myself using a lot lately), run rl, hit s, enter the command you want to run as the name of the script (eg "sfl"), add the commands to the file that opened (eg "sfs-load"), and save the file.

Post subject: a couple of tips and a fix
Subject description: sfs_load, not sfs-load
to add a script/function to the launcher (i just added sfl to my own--"sfs-load" runs shinobar's SFS-Load-On-The-Fly, which i find myself using a lot lately), run rl, hit s, enter the command you want to run as the name of the script (eg "sfl"), add the commands to the file that opened (eg "
), save the file.
should be
echo $'
' > /nwp/sfl
chmod 755 /nwp/sfl
in a terminal or vtg'd (highlight the code in a geany document and then hit vtg, alt+z, or any of vtg entries on the jwm or aemenus. v in the launcher is also this function) will give you a working "sfl." keeping this as a template and then vtging the altered contents or dumping the code into a terminal is probably the fastest way to make little scripts and document templates. being more or less computer illiterate, i used the following cheat sheet launcher codes to make the above: scz (the #!/bin/sh gets spit out), cnt (file maker--from "echo" to the arrow, with notes on how to use it get spit out), and 7c (the chmod bit--make the file an executable script). then i either vtg'd the code or ran it in a terminal (tested four times--this is faster overall than making the script and then having to open it (rl > s method mentioned above) or launching the ll launcher, running scz, pasting in the code, saving the file, and then running the ch launcher on it. so anyway, some tips as a fix for something you may want to add to your own nwp/pwn setup.
you can grab (or double check
) program run codes from the .desktop files (most of which are in /usr/share/applications. program file(s) to run as a code should always work with the above--single quotes inside the main of the file to be created need to be escaped (i think you can also change up the single quote after the echo/before the arrow. fwiw, i find it (cnt) one of the more useful little nwp scripts/launcher shortcuts).

Post subject: LibreOffice updates (5.3.3 for both the 32 and 64 bit spins)
Subject description: and a clickable script for the youtube downloader
the python script Barry's Youtube Downloader relies on gets updated fairly frequently; dump the following into a terminal to get "utu" (you tube (downloader) updater) as a clickable script in /root/my-applications/bin. i can't seem to find the site i pulled it from (aside from the name and location and the inclusion of the command line comment-cheat, it's directly from a site i can no longer find; i think it's the same people as bring you
), but can attest it works well (or has now for the past four months at least).
echo $'
#youtube-dl -o "/root/%(title)s" [url]
rm -f /root/my-applications/bin/youtube-dl
/usr/bin/urxvt -e wget https://yt-dl.org/downloads/latest/youtube-dl -O /root/my-applications/bin/youtube-dl
chmod a+rx /root/my-applications/bin/youtube-dl
' > /root/my-applications/bin/utu
chmod 755 /root/my-applications/bin/utu
old python script should disappear and the new one should appear in the same location as the update script. (change if your installation puts the python script elsewhere or the gui you use specifies a different location. this one should work for all the spins in this thread).
edit: should've searched by script name. here's the original site:

Post subject: browser updates for both the 32 and 64bit spins
Subject description: thanks to ETP, Mike Walsh, and OscarTalks
32 bit Slimjet 14.0.8 and Iron 58, plus 32 and 64 bit Tor browsers from OscarTalks:
Google Chrome 58 64-bit
, Iron 58 64bit ,
Slimjet 14.0.6 SFSes by
Mike Walsh
tested the pet made from Mike's sfs in two 6t4 installations--one gave me a sandboxing error, so i decided to see if
worked in the spins. it does. help/thanks file from the
folder in
pupli repo
gives some additional info:
apparently made for Barry Kauler's Quirky releases, ETP's script nevertheless works well in tahr64 and the derivatives i've tried it on (one wouldn't allow me to uninstall the older chrome as ETP suggests (ghost installation of some sort--there but no record of it) so i renamed (and later deleted) the google folder in /opt, allowing the GetLatest64bitChrome script to continue (it will warn you and close if it detects an earlier installation). puppy file systems are pretty consistent, so chrome 58 will be the last actual google-chrome package i host for the foreseeable as this should work for all the 64 bit pups and also takes care of (i.e. reinstates automatic) updates (which i think is how it runs in most places nonpuppy).
--puppus dogfellow, 5/23/17
source for script: http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=955360#955360
edit: rechecked ETP's post: rerun to update if you so choose--script trigger will be in the main menu under internet and as a clickable icon in /usr/share/applications.
repo links for the 64 bit:
iron 64
(32 and 64 bit Tor are together since Oscar makes both)
ETP's script updates the older get chrome script i snagged from him for the tahr spin (and 64 bit
). you lose Anubis/Anuupuus as a popup, but the new one's less intrusive than either of its predecessors (running retriever makes a return in a smaller gif).

the pinstall script
echo $'
xmodmap -pm > /tmp/pm-xmd; geany /tmp/pm-xmd
#open copy of modifier map in geany
' > /nwp/ktabm
chmod 755 /nwp/ktabm

xmodmap -pke > /tmp/pke-xmd2; geany /tmp/pke-xmd2
' > /root/my-applications/xmodmaps/key_table-geany
chmod 755 /root/my-applications/xmodmaps/key_table-geany
gives you ktab and keytabm as launcher shortcuts--key_table-geany and modifier-geany in /root/my-applications/xmodmaps give you the same thing but as version two: both sets open up files useful for modifying things further.
the contents of one of the xmod files you have the option of using, 84xmod, shows the basic template of the four and, like the rest, has more comments than commands:
! caps lock becomes mode switch, scroll lock becomes caps lock, Menu gets added as modeshift plus q
remove Lock = Caps_Lock
keycode 78 = Caps_Lock
! keycode 110 = Caps_Lock
keycode 66 = Mode_switch
add Lock = Caps_Lock
keycode 24 = q Q Menu Q q Q
! keycode 144 = Caps_Lock
! keycode 71 = F5
! keycode 72 = ISO_Level3_Shift
! keycode 153 = F6
! xmodmap -e 'keycode 21 = equal plus Menu'
! keycode 71 = Mode_switch Mode_switch Mode_switch Mode_switch
! keycode 49 = grave asciitilde grave asciitilde grave asciitilde
! keycode 9 = Escape Menu (second slot is plus shift) (plus modeshift)3 (plus shift and modeshift)4 (can't-get 5th6th2wrk)5 (iso level shift 3 plus shift)6
! possible use is to add another 24 function keys (12 on the Function row, 12 on the numbers plus -/+ row, so that shift isn't used/precluded as a modifier. getting isolevel to work would probably be a better solution...)
! (84 is 82 but with scroll lock rather than pause made caps lock; 87 is the same as 84 but without the menu key activated as mode shift plus q; all three relocate Caps_Lock and make the original key into Mode_switch
! c version makes caps lock an extra control and moves mode switch to pause (rest is same as 84))
the c version was added after the other three but was based on the earlier work at
, which in turn was based on the google results for xmodmap help.
in short, there are good, somewhat abbreviated mechanical keyboards available and they can be programmed in puppy fairly easily (in fairness, so can the membrane dealies, but the cherry mx clones from china are excellent and priced well). keyboards with fewer than 84 keys usually ditch the Menu key, so all the scripts with numbers below that in their names add the key to modeshift plus q. caps lock is moved to scroll lock or pause. the c version makes a larger, third control button out of the key formerly used for caps_lock. my 82 key model has no Scroll Lock or Menu, and these files are based on what works for 5 models, two of which are from the same company (Gramr and Tyrfing, 84 and 87 key respectively, are both made by Drevo). pet adds an xmodmaps folder to /root/my-applications/ that contains a reset script, an open everything in geany so you can view or edit it script, the aforementioned (shift plus spacebar) launcher shortcut codes, and four presets/build upons. (i'm thinking of making the first function layer the multimedia layer for a part of it and using those keys as mouse keys 1-5 and maybe a few launchers, so that's why you see commented out function key mods in the file. use xmodmap -e 'key = 1 2 3 4 x x' to send individual changes through the terminal.)
here's a list of keysyms you can put on your map:
more help:
q, caps_lock, pause, and scroll all seem to be consistently named, but you should check your keys in xev and adjust if necessary. drag the run#xmod script to Startup to have them active by default, click to activate now. edit the reset script to match your layout (default's set for u.s.).
run scripts are just
xmodmap (file)
works in 32 and 64 bit.

Post subject: update of previous pet. add mod 3, other improvements
three additional configurations added, all of which add an additional modifier that works well in jwm but not Rox; there's a jwm file included to make it almost as easy as right click > edit > click to set [keyboard shortcut]. edit all now opens in a new instance of geany, and there's a menu entry that opens up to the /root/my-applications/xmodmaps directory from off Utilities. i got the idea to add mod3 from SFR's
lockstate thread
, which i just turned to for help with my iso level three shift problem. new versions basically just add two lines, though 82m makes caps lock the multimedia key under F2 (again, check xev if you're short on keys--i wanted Hyper_R and Mode_shift to be able to act on that key, so i couldn't put either there). here's the 82m config file:
! caps lock becomes mode switch, pause becomes caps lock, Menu gets added as modeshift plus q
remove Lock = Caps_Lock
! keycode 78 = Caps_Lock
keycode 252 = Caps_Lock
keycode 66 = Mode_switch
keycode 24 = q Q Menu Q q Q
add Lock = Caps_Lock
! keycode 144 = Caps_Lock
! keycode 71 = F5
! keycode 72 = ISO_Level3_Shift
! keycode 153 = F6
! xmodmap -e 'keycode 21 = equal plus Menu'
! keycode 71 = Mode_switch Mode_switch Mode_switch Mode_switch
! keycode 49 = grave asciitilde grave asciitilde grave asciitilde
! keycode 9 = Escape Menu(second slot is plus shift) (plus modeshift)3 (plus shift and modeshift)4 (can't-get 5th6th2wrk)5 (iso level shift 3 plus shift)6

! c version makes caps lock an extra control and moves mode switch to pause (rest is same as 84))
keycode 110 = Hyper_R
add mod3 = Hyper_R
! add Control = Hyper_R
and here's the jwm file:
<!-- mod 3 jwm template with that as the only modifier. add individual lines to /root/.jwm/jwmrc-personal or one of your key config files. include the whole file with <Include>/root/my-applications/xmodmaps/no10m/jwmmod3</Include>

#alt plus down arrow "move active window down" shortcut interferes with the program's built-in "alt+down arrow accesses main menu" shortcut--use escape button to open and arrow back to close in pups that use the nwp/anuupus suite.
reminds me of those old Brother and Magnavox word processors (electric typewriters with screens and storage). runs in a terminal, and the sakura "version" gives right click ability. interesting and under 300kb.

in one of these spins is redundant--the word processor and utilities suite is just the customizations i've made to a base distro made portable. if you mean the
pet installed in a pup from this thread or that installed the nwp (folder that holds the alternate file system and the little scripts that do the work), shift+spacebar activates the launcher and either
(wordgrinder opened in urxvt),
(wordgrinder opened in sakura) or
(wordgrinder opened in rxvt) entered into that launcher will run the program, as will "wordgrinder" in the terminal or clicking on one of the entries in the Documents menu or one of the three .desktop files in /usr/share/applications.
the nwp is more the folder that contains your stuff (optional file system--enter "baek" in the launcher for an aemenu version of it), and the launcher and jwm tweaks are what make the thing--"pwn" launcher (Process Words, Nooby/carpe diem, etc) is
shift plus spacebar
--i think there's an almost full list of shortcut codes a page back or so--that's the main "interface"--the thing's an overlay/overhaul more than a program, and it gives you more than one way to do what it proposes to do, so--i'm not sure what you mean.
(also, if you're not using these spins for the wordgrinder pet, you'll probably need to install sakura for the wgs/wordgrinder-sk versions to work).
(the nwp thread i've linked may clear up some confusion. it also may add to it).
(if you do install the nwp as a pet, it ports your configs to "my39." to get back to them, "my39r" in the terminal should reverse most if not all of the installation (mae in the menu allows piecemeal uninstallation--it's a fairly enormous ae menu--i had an ae menu problem there for a while--just couldn't stop making them (there's an aemenu and jwmmenu maker somewhere in the shortcuts as well, but i usually just use substitution on existing copies at this point--so many templates for keycuts and menus, but lately i've been more concerned with altering the keyboard itself--keeps me up at night.)))
again, hope this helps, but i'll repost the shortcuts with the updates sometime soon.

Wonderful Rack !

About Me Renter
Comments about Over The Door Metal Storage Rack:
I purchased 2 racks. the one for the bathroom/laundry room door fit perfectly, however the one for my kitchen pantry door is about 2 inches too wide. Perhaps I measured wrong. Still trying to figure how to make it work.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Jared Leto Goes Casual for Coachella
Making a chill appearance while out and about in Indio, CA, Jared Leto showed up to the 2014 Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival on Friday (April 11).
Smiling and posing with his fans, the "Dallas Buyers Club" stud sported a sky blue tropical shirt with black pants, flashing a thumbs-up on his way inside.
In related news, the 42-year-old went into an interview with FourTwoNine magazine alongside his brother Shannon Leto, discussing their "differentness," as well as their band, 30 Seconds to Mars, saying, "I got a note from a kid yesterday. We were signing a thousand CD's after a show. If you looked at him, he looked like any young kid maybe in twelfth grade or eleventh grade who'd be on the baseball team or something. A nice looking kid."
Explaining how he and his brother don't mind being called "queer," Jared continued, saying, "He handed me a note and it said, 'I just want to say thanks so much for the music. It's helped me in many ways–especially with coming out this year to my family.'"

Re "Lee only Republican to oppose student loan deal," Tribune, July 26.
According to the above story, Sen. Mike Lee has an outstanding student loan debt of between $10,000 and $15,000. Assuming it was $16,000, if he paid $1,000 a year, it would amount to $83.33 a month.
My son, daughter and three granddaughters have each paid off their student loans in less than five years. We are a middle-class family, not United States senators.
What's wrong with this picture?
What a deadbeat!

There's nothing without love
Up in the Swiss mountains, a bustling ski resort caters to the every need of the carefree and affluent, while far below two orphaned siblings, the beautiful, yet wholly unreliable 20-something Louise and the scrawny, no nonsense 12-year old Simon, live in an aging apartment tower and struggle to make ends meet. The virtually non-existent space in between, the supposed middle class, is represented by the ski lifts, their only purpose a mechanical one, to shuttle individuals back and forth between two disparate worlds.
For Simon, the ski resort and its wealthy patrons represent opportunity. Armed with his most valuable possession, a season pass for the slopes, which in his mind equates to a golden ticket that opens the gates to a glorious candy kingdom only for those who possess it, Simon quickly learns to use the indifference of the uncaring world, a world that has turned a blind eye to his problems, to his advantage. Honing his natural talents and street smarts Simon quickly develops a keen eye for spotting high quality ski gear, the stealth and cunning of a master thief, and the business savvy of seasoned hustler. Each day he makes his way up the mountain, happily preying on those whose only response to finding their precious ski gear missing will be a sigh, and a resignation that they'll simply have to replace that which has been lost with a newer, better, more expensive version, and each night he returns home pulling a sled piled high with all manner of resellable items behind him. Business, for at least one of the siblings, be it illegal or otherwise unlawful, is booming.
Older, and far more resigned to her situation, Louise pursues her failing dreams of wealth and stability through the acquisition of a male suitor who will care for her. Unstable, and unable to hold even the most menial of jobs for any great period of time, she continually finds herself being either abused or abandoned, or some combination of both, by the low caliber of men she chooses to chase after. She thinks nothing of leaving Simon alone for days on end in order to establish new relationships, and thinks just as little when it comes to lying about Simon's standing in her life to those who actually stick around long enough to have the privilege to meet him: He's just visiting temporarily, or he's just passing through on a vacation, or don't worry, he's not a permanent fixture around here. These lies are repeatedly told in Simon's presence, and being the younger, more vulnerable member of the pair, he has little choice but to play along with them. As we know all too well however, the truth has a funny way of revealing itself at the most pivotal of moments.
When the bombshell does arrive, it will change everything, not only for the siblings themselves, but also for the viewer who has become breathlessly attached to their plight. As the weather begins to change, and the ski lodge begins the process of closing down until the next winter season arrives, the relationship between brother and sister evolves from a position that was precarious in the best of times, to one that becomes emotionally explosive and completely unlivable for both. Any feelings of love that may have grown between the two as a result of necessity has been replaced by fear, indifference, and the realization that both have been forced to sacrifice their youth, but neither has ever truly learned how to grow up.
Ursula Meier's devastating portrait of damaged youth lives or dies based on the performance of its lead actors. Young Kacey Mottet Klein gives the best performance seen by any child in a film since Haley Joel Osment wowed critics and audiences alike in the Sixth Sense. His turn as Simon, a criminal in training on one hand, and a child desperate to feel the loving embrace of family on the other, is portrayed with an emotional depth that goes well beyond his limited years. In her role as Louise, Lea Seydoux skillfully manages the seemingly impossible task of making her both dislikable and sympathetic at the same time.
Love can change everything, but so to can its absence. No matter how smart the child, how resilient or resourceful they might be, the emptiness caused by the lack of such a crucial emotion can never be adequately filled. Together, but ultimately disconnected and fractured, Sister's siblings speak for the growing number of youth that are forced to grow up within a fast-paced world that has little time or desire to help care for them properly.

Are you a patient of Stephen H. Kahler, MD?
5 out of 5 stars Breast Reduction
Yes! Do It! - Carrollton, GA
After many years of consideration and pondering, it came to the point where I had to have SOMETHING done to help my back and neck. I had massive boobage and it needed to get fixed. I opted (with input from my husband) for a breast reduction and pursued it with my insurance company. I was approved in a heartbeat. I found a fantastic plastic surgeon in Carrollton, GA. He did a...

33yr Old Stay Home Mommy of 2 - Carrollton, GA
Dr Kahler is an amazing Person as well as an amazing Dr! Very down to earth, with wonderful manners respect and common Curtisy. Also his sense of humor lightened the room and faded the nervousness! His staff all had NOTHING but great words about him! He takes an interest in each client and gets to know them and why they feel they need the procedure they are asking about. I can't see my results just yet but I without a doubt feel he did everything to make sure we achieved my goals!
5 out of 5 stars Breast Augmentation
Love Him! - Carrollton, GA
Other girls I know used him and loved him. He did my surgery 2 years ago. I love him and the work he did. He and his staff made sure I was very well taken care of. He or a member of his staff called while I was home to make its I was ok. Also when I first met him and spoke with him about the procedure he wanted to know me and why I wanted to change my appearance. What made me want to have this surgery? He cares a lot about his patients! I wish he had informed me more about how I would feel afterwards. I wasn't expecting that much pain. I knew it would hurt of course. But it hurts. When I called though they told me how to deal with it and everything was ok. I never had to sit in the waiting room for long. He always answered my questions and made me understand what he was talking about.
5 out of 5 stars Mini Tummy Tuck
Mini Tummy Tuck Followed with a Breast Reduction - Carrollton, GA
The only reason I put undecided on if it's worth it is because I'm only 2 days post op and it looks like I've been in a car wreck. I know it will just take time for it to heal and settle. My Dr is excellent. I looked at several different ones and I'm happy with the one I chose. He wouldn't do the mini tt at the same time as the breast reduction and now I understand why. That really would have been too much at once.
5 out of 5 stars Arm Lift
Putting Life Back in Order - Carrollton, GA
Dr. Kahler is warm, kind, and highly skilled. I was confident in my choice after carefully researching all the options (being in the metro Atlanta area I had many options). His style is of a knowing physician, not a salesman, and that was ideal for me. His skills snd care of me during my arm lift were excellent.
1 out of 5 stars Breast Lift
Poor Job on Breast Lift - Carrollton, GA
I am a patient of Dr. K's. I wish that I had never let him touch me. I have been through much emotional and physical trauma. Dr. K and his staff show no concern for my well being. I was accused per office staff that either I smoked, picked, or some other wound interference was the cause for my delayed wound healing. I have never smoked, picked , or had any other issue as the staff implied. When I had my 2nd surgery, I walked to the OR and before getting on the OR stretcher, I noticed some blood on the bed linens from a previous patient. The nurse just simply tried to cover it with a pillow.

Breast Lift with Implants...Poor Job - Carrollton, GA
Dr. Stephen Kahler, MD shows no empathy to his patients for the mistakes he makes performing his various surgeries. I've known of several women who've had bad experiences with him as well.

Here's What I Know About Wedding Lightroom Preset
- Being a wedding photographer is not easy, especially when the couple asked you to make everything possible.
- How to be the best wedding photographer?
- Here's What I Know About Wedding Lightroom Preset
Basically, being a wedding photographer is not easy, especially when the couple asked you to make everything possible. You are required to think of the most unique and special ideas to make the wedding ceremony memorable. So once they hire you, it also means they put their 100 percent trust in you.
Wedding photographers don't just prepare for the wedding event itself. They are also busy doing other wedding stuff such as the Wedding photography DVD and album, same day video presentation and more.
So, how to be the best wedding photographer? In this article, we will talk about some tips that I know about wedding photography.
Check the Wedding Location
It is very important to check the wedding location first to know how to arrange cameras, props and other photography related materials on the site. Moreover, checking the site means finding the right spot and good lighting for the wedding pictorial.
Communicate with the Couple
Communication is one of the most important keys to a successful wedding pictorial. Before anything else, you must always showcase your photography portfolio and your ways and styles in photography. Ask them what they want and how they want the wedding pictures to look like.
Use Wedding Lightroom Presets
Wedding pictures would be dull and lifeless if not processed properly. As a wedding photographer, you should use high-quality wedding presets for Lightroom for your images. By doing this, you are not just helping yourself produce outstanding images, you are also giving yourself more time to do other important stuffs.
Enjoy the Momentum
Weddings are about celebrating the union of two people. It's also about love and happiness. As a photographer, your goal is not just to take pictures. You must also enjoy every moment with the crowd and the couple. As much as you're asking the couple and the crowd to show their big smiles, you should also give them a huge smile in return.

Gus by 49-46 decision, Melvin by KO, Pickett by submission, Nelson by submission (Akhmedov has equal chance to win by sub).
Straus/Curran preview:
Curran by 48-47 decision, War Machine by KO, Riggs by submisison, Koreshkov by KO.
dude what? Look up morote-gari. Those shots exist in judo bro. you dont see them because they are banned in judo competition but anybody who is a black belt in judo knows how to perform a single, double or high crotch. and ronda has been grappling her whole life so its not like she never wrestled....
I'm speaking from over 10 yrs of experience(this is jecca btw). I've seen amy and pro boxers and kickboxers get their !@# whooped by female grapplers. Once you hit the mat that lifelong boxing experience is now useless whether you're a can or mike tyson.
Anyone who watched fights should know how ridiculous it is to speculate what would/could happen in one. Especially a fight that will never happen in our lifetime.
It's a man vs. a woman. One is an elite striker, the other an elite grappler.
Even MMA matches with that same lay out turn into striking matches.
Standing up, yes. He would destroy her on skill and technique alone regardless of strength.
On the ground he wouldn't break Ronda's nail. Ronda would retire him early and snap his arm in half in 20 seconds.
i can tell you have no idea what youre talking about so its pointless to debate with people who a.) have never trained before in their lives b.) have no understanding of the use of techniques and leverages ie brazilian jiu jitsu, judo, etc
let me guess you're one who those guys that thinks a huge 220 lbs bodybuilder would destroy a 150lbs bjj guy, huh?
Nope. But i do think a 220 lbs body builder would destroy ANY female
Its basic science really. But i see you have no idea what ur talking about
Your one of those dudes that thinks a 130 lbs mma fighting female could win any sort of fighting competition that is jot tailored directly towards giving her the sembelence of hope against. Pound for pound the greatest competitive combatant in our generation. Oh.
Id bet my life savings n 3 weeks floyd would learn enough to tap her by rear naked inside of 30 seconds.
hahaha ur hilarious

Further proving my point it's pointless to debate with people that have zero education in the subject their speaking of. Stick to other threads bruh because you're out of your element here.

Lol at ppl thinkin rousey is shooting him for the single or double
If she did get close enough she'd get stuffed with ease. Again he has 30 lbs on her n spent his whole life training to fight. He's bigger. Stronger. Faste and most importantly a man. If you don't think he could adopt ju jitso and wrestling moves your on drugs. She has a 0 percent chance.
Ronda probably walks around at about 155. Money got 15lbs on her max and 10 of that would be a 100 stacks in a Louis duffle. She's a similar size and has been grappling at the highest level her whole life. Inside of punching range Flloyd is a whitebelt. She locks her hands and son is going for a ride as sure as she's getting KTFO if he tags her mug.

Floyd by KO :04 into Round 1.
Getting off this Rousey-Mayweather fight that would never happen....
Dana commented on Nate Diaz's request to be released from his contract and he said no. What was interesting was that Dana said Diaz signed a new contract month ago and was happy with it. Leads me to guess that he's pissed that Gil got the title shot against Pettis or he's upset with the amount of money Gil's getting.
Dana also said that they haven't decided what Rousey is gonna do next but Carano is still under contract with UFC. So if she wanted to fight it would be with them.
I just don't see how Carano has a chance. Or why we should be excited about that match? Carano hasn't fought in forever and at her prime I don't see how she'd be a threat to Rousey. So with ring rust and being out of shape, I'm not sure how that would even be a fight we should be hyped for.
A fight between Carano and Rousey would be about selling ppvs. No one expects Carano to win. But a fight between those 2 would probably outsell any fight with Zigano or Davis. Plus with Dana already proclaiming that Rousey is the biggest star in UFC, they can't afford to let her have another ppv stinker like they did with 170 when it comes to ppv buys and the live gate numbers.
In my opinion, I don't think that they can do the fight between Rousey and Carano. It really makes it look like they're avoiding Cyborg. How can Dana say he has to see Cyborg fight at 135 lbs a few times to make sure she can make the weight, but allow Carano who had the same weight issues as Cyborg back in Elite XC and had trouble making 140 lbs. Plus he's gone on record saying it wouldn't be fair for Cyborg to jump over the other 135ers. So how would it be fair for Carano?

Gus has faced a number of heavy hitters, I think that his experience and length should be enough. With that said, it's always hype when you know that the main event will feature two guys who will just throw down. I don't expect any stalling or avoidance. I just read that Jimi has never fought outside of England which was interesting to me.
I wouldn't mind seeing either guy win, if Gus wins, I'd like to see that rematch with Bones assuming he gets by Glover (which I actually believe will be a tough out). If Manuwa wins then DC most likely gets the shot and I've been waiting for that fight for a while. Manuwa would also be on a tear, arguably a top contender in his own right. I just don't want to see Phil Davis, unless he wows against Rumble.

How much you offer or charge for supporting the themeforest products? I often see the work opportunities to support the themeforest products. All of the authors ask about your desired hourly rate. It would be great if you can share the average, so that a person does not ask for too high or too low rates.
You ask how much you worth.. It's a simple as that
I'm confused cos I thought I was priceless How about you give your opinion?
I don't have any themes for sale on here yet, but I am working on my first. However, I've been building custom wp sites for clients for 5 years, and pricing is always difficult to pin down.
I'll tell you that I have an hourly range, depending on the client and type of work, that I charge from $50 to $80 per hour.
If I'm just doing support, like talking them through how to update something, or checking why their posts aren't showing up and then fixing an options setting, I'll likely charge on the low end; so $50/hour for that kind of support.
@bravewhale. Thank you very much for your reply.
"There is no spoon"
When you fix a support issue in minutes with single conversation because of your vast experience, you can't fix hourly rate. In the same way if someone fixes an issue after 3 hours with the exchange of 4-5 emails due to lack of experience then also the hourly rate wont work.
So everything will come down into "how much you just prefer to get and how flexible your are for out-of-proportion situations". The problem comes only when you don't know how much you need.
@VF: Thanks for your reply.
I have seen 4-5 topics here about the support positions. They have mentioned that they want someone to work 1-2 hours in a day and in all of them the authors ask "your rate/hour", so I assume that there will be multiple support questions to answers, so you just work according to your time (ie. do as much you can do in your 1-2 hours).
^ Honestly, without doing a trial work for a whole week (1 cycle), it would be impossible to get the idea about depth of support an item needs. The original author's 1 hour is different from any other dev's 1 hour. So if you are in confusion, make a trial.

Comparing President Obama and Governor Romney's education plans
On the NPR segment Tell me More, host Michele Martin interviewed Education Week writer Alyson Klein about the two presidential candidates' education platforms.
The interview kicked off with Martin asking Klein how she and those in the education policy field feel about the amount of attention that education was getting (or not getting) at the two conventions. Klein responded that in the case of both the DNC and RNC, education has been a side issue to the economy.
Martin then asked Klein to compare Obama and Romney's education stances. Klein said that Romney's plan asks for a "robust" role for private school choice. If elected, Romney would give federal dollars directly to parents to use at public or private schools. Klein confirmed that the Obama administration has spent a record amount of education, in spite of the recession. The administration has spent $100 billion on education in the stimulus plan and has awarded grants in several different Race to the Top competitions.
Klein said that both candidates are "big fans of charter schools" and both want teacher evaluations revamped.

Seems there's Always Something Fun in Austin
Never has a town taken to culture as a business center to an altogether new level quite like Austin has. More than just promoting local businesses, Austin, Texas promotes and cultivates "weirdness" to the point that their slogan is "Keep Austin Weird." As a result, this capital has become home for world renowned events that attract thousands of tourists every single year. Not that that has ever stopped Austin before as their reputation as the party central dates back all the way to the 19th century. A few wars and an economic depression later – they're still growing strong.
One such event that Austin plays host to is to the Formula 1 race, marking its capability to be able to shelter that big of a crowd as in 2012 alone, more than over a hundred thousand people were in attendance, via the Circuit of the Americas. That is not the only racing event that this town can hold as it is also currently the home of other events such as Moto GP, ESPN's X Games, Tudor United SportsCar Championship sports car series, and so much more.
The interests also vary as with Moto GP coming along in just a few weeks' time, increasing the demand for moto gp limo service, as just a few weeks prior was the South by Southwest festival. Many music acts have found themselves on this most coveted stage, with names such as KISS, Nine Inch Nails, Kanye West, Drake, Lil Wayne, Maroon 5, and Kelly Clarkson as only a few among that most prestigious list.
So if you find yourself in Austin, Texas – you might find that you are just exactly where you are meant to be and exactly where you are meant to be. Remember to keep with the town slogan and enjoy the time that you have while visiting!

Creighton with Maisie, the First Dog
President Creighton announced a
bold new initiative—The Real Plan for Improving Student
Life at Mount Holyoke College—through a videotaped message
to this year's Junior Show. The juniors responded with
a videotape of their own anticipating the ramifications of Creighton's "Ten
Command-ments" for students. Junior Show ran the evenings
of February 26–28.
Thanks very much for allowing me the opportunity to address
the Junior Show.
You've all heard me talk about planning—about The
Plan for Mount Holyoke 2003; about The Plan for Mount
Holyoke 2010; about planning to plan,
and planning not to plan. You've heard me use terms like "iterative" and "consultative," "perspicacious," "felicitous," and "transformative," though
we all know that these words don't have any meaning. Not really.
I haven't told you yet about the real deal, the real plan, the top secret
plan, the plan, that is, that certain top administrators and I have developed
without consulting students or anybody but ourselves.
Well, now that we've begun to implement it, I think it only fair to tell
you The Real Plan for Improving Student Life at Mount Holyoke College.
First, though, let me say that as president of this wondrous and sacred institution,
I am concerned that our resonant traditions have devolved from meaningful community-building
celebrations to disgusting displays of public drunkenness and debauchery in
their lowest form. Clearly, the situation has gotten out of hand and we have
to do something.
Looking back at my own college days, I realize that what I experienced as a
student made me what I am today. Clearly, what was good enough to make me a
president should be good enough for you as well, don't you agree?
It is in this vein that we in the administration, drawing on our own memorable
undergraduate days, are instituting new policies that we feel are in the tradition
of Mary Lyon (although we don't go back quite that far), policies that
will mold you into empowered, proper, decent, and respectable young ladies.
There are ten new policies: you might call them MHC's Ten Commandments.
1. All dorms shall be locked up at 10 pm, no exceptions.
2. At promptly 10:05 each evening, all students shall gather in their residence
halls for a nightly singing of the "Alma Mater."
3. Lights shall be turned off at 11 pm, and there shall be nightly bed checks
to ascertain that each student is in her bed. Alone.
4. Morning chapel shall again be mandatory.
5. We shall again, just as in the good old days, limit male visitors to downstairs
lounges, and we shall reinstitute the rule that a young lady entertaining a
male person must keep at least one foot on the floor at all times. No exceptions.
No doing it on the floor, either!
And, speaking of males: they discourage concentration. This is, after all,
a women's college.
So, rule no. 6: Henceforth, men shall be banned from the library. And books
by male authors shall be strongly discouraged as well.
7. To create a proper environment for learning, no student shall be admitted
into a classroom or administrative building without wearing a skirt that reaches
at least three inches below her knee. A wardrobe malfunction shall result in
an honor code violation.
8. Each student shall be required to write to her parents weekly and submit
her letter to the president's office so that I may personally review
its contents (not to mention its grammar and spelling).
9. The College shall become a "dry" campus, and all students will
be required to relinquish their alcohol and drug products to public safety,
which will find some appropriate means for disposing of them. Bear in mind
that random room inspections will be instituted and if you possess banned booze
or worse, you will face expulsion.
Indeed, I have volunteered Maisie, the First Dog, to do sniffing patrols of
all residence halls. (You know her as Maisie, but to me she's Maisie
Doats. You know, "Maisie Doats, and Dozy Doats, and Liddle Lamzy Divey.")
Maisie Doats is eager and ready to lead a life of purposeful engagement, sniffing
out debauchery and making Mount Holyoke clean and safe for all inhabitants,
animal and human. And finally:
10. We intend to bring back etiquette classes and posture pictures to ensure
that Mount Holyoke women are leaders in stature and manners, as well as politics,
business, and so many other fields.
Well, that's it. I know there will be resistance to these innovations.
Great presidents always encounter resistance. To be great is to be misunderstood.
I have assembled an enforcing committee of the finest and most dedicated members
of our College community, and I am certain that they are up to this task.
Thank you for your attention, and have a nice, clean, and appropriate Junior

Park Police Question 'Person of Interest' About July Assaults
The United States Park Police questioned a person along the C&O Canal Aug. 13 around 4 p.m. The individual appeared to match the description of a suspect who sexually assaulted a woman near the canal in July. The pursuit brought out officers, detectives, members of the SWAT team and a K-9 team as well as a helicopter which circled above the vicinity of Key Bridge and the canal.
After the show of force, most Park Police officers left the scene as detectives continued to question the individual. Officers declined to say whether the "person of interest" was suspected of being involved in the July 25 incident along the Capital Crescent Trail where a female jogger was choked and molested in the area north of Three Sisters Island or the July 7 sexual assault where the suspect led the victim onto the C&O Canal towpath just off of 31st Street and pushed the victim down into the bushes. The victim was able to get away from the suspect.
One officer said he was grateful that the local media, including this newspaper, was getting the word out about the attacks and added that persons need to aware of their surroundings at all times and not be distracted by earplugs and the like. Parks after dark, another said, become different places, requiring everyone to be alert.
The police continue to seek the public's assistance on these assaults. Call the U.S. Park Police Communications Section at 202-610-7505, or the U.S. Park Police Tip Line 202-610-8737, reference case #12-33695. Also, call Detective Glenn Luppino, 202-610-8750; reference case #12-36735.
