Problem logging in to wifi hotspot (Solved)
hi Friends,
I wonder if anyone can help me with this.
I have a Precise Puppy 5.4.3 installed on a USB flash drive. I used the "Douglas" software to connect to wifi.
When I try to connect in McDonalds to their free wifi, it works if and only if I have previously connected from another version of Linux within the previous few hours.
Here is how it works from Firefox or Chrome in Ubuntu:
McD wifi is "open", ie un-encrypted, but like a lot of wifi cafes they trap the first page you open in the browser and ask you to log in. Once you have done this it becomes automatic, You ask for (say) Google and you get a McD page saying "welcome back". Thereafter that day, you do not even get that.
Clearly the local router is remembering the MAC address of my wifi card, because having once connected from Firefox, it goes straight in when using a different browser, or even from a different Operating system, So it can't be cookies.
Now, once it has connected from Ubuntu, it will connect from Seamonkey in Puppy. The wifi connection is up and running in Puppy when I boot, so it does not seem to be a wifi config issue.
But, first time in the day, Seamonkey says it cannot locate the server. Obviously DNS lookup is failing somehow. Yet it works fine for a few hours if I have "pre-registered" from ubuntu.
Any ideas how to fix this? What is missing?
Is it possible that Seamonkey does not offer something that the handshaking requires? Should I try installing Firefox or Chrome on Puppy?
If I have to load Ubuntu before I use Puppy every time I want to work in an internet cafe, I might as well stay in Ubuntu and check my mail there. I wanted to use Puppy for this (ahem) precisely because it is so fast...

Do you do "Auto DHCP"? Click "Connect" and choose classic Kauler-Douglas Puppy Network Wizard, click your wireless connection "wlan0" (or "eth1"), click "Wireless", click "Scan" to find the network, configure it: if the network is open you don't have to set a password, click "Save profile", click "Use this profile", click "Auto DHCP". Open now Seamonkey.

hi watchdog
yes, I have done all that, and it works if I was already on the wifi using ubuntu, and it fails if I wasn't on the wifi earlier. So I figure it is not a wifi config problem, but a problem triggered by the way McDonalds ask people to log in.
Let me spell this out a bit more.
If I do exactly the same boot up process with Puppy on the laptop within an hour or so of connecting the wifi works, and it all happens automatically, even without me repeating the commands that watchdog mentions.
But, if it is a day or so since I connected at the same cafe, the network reports that it is connected, but whatever url I type into Seamonkey cannot be found. And it still cannot be found if I repeat all the commands watchdog mentions again, even though all those commands report success.
When connectinmg for the first time in the day from Ubuntu, the first page you try to get in Firefox (whatever the url) goes instead to the McDonalds login page.
It is this re-direction that is failing to happen when the first connection is done under Puppy.
Is Seamomkey capable of understanding a redirection reply? Maybe it regards a redirect as a fail?
Does Puppy only open a firewall after a successful connection or something like that?
This is confusing....
If I do not get any suggestions soon, I will try to install firefox, to see if it is the difference between firefox and seamonkey that is revealing the problem, or the difference between the Puppy wifi and the Ubuntu wifi.
But first, has anyone got any better ideas for moving towards an understanding of what is going wrong here?

Firstly, all routers are designed to remember MAC addresses and assign "leases" to them for a period of time. They keep them in the "routing table".
Secondly, run
ifconfig wlan0
and check your IP address, if it is 169.xx.xx.xx you are getting the default address which indicates failure. You would expect it to begin with 10.xx.xx.xx or 192.xx.xx.xx. If your IP address appears sane then proceed,,
Third, try to ping an external address such as sourceforge.net, pupylinux.com, 126.96.36.199 or whatever.
ping -c4 126.96.36.199
(that's google by the way, you can use url or IP address). You would expect 100% packet return if you are connected. When that works..
Fourth, try to browse.

I have a couple of WiFi adaptors TP-Link and Digitech. Small ones with the same guts in them . They use an rtl8172cu driver that did not work straight up from Puppy precise 5.4.2. I got another driver with the kind help of Pemasu ,and they were then able to connect .
However I get similar problems to you in that they connect to the WiFi router OK , run fine for a while then suddenly they can't find the server. If I disconnect and try to reconnect they don't even find the router .
In my case to fix this I must reboot the router. It happens a couple of times a day and does not seem to be a regular period of time that might be associated to lease times granted. I think the clue is that once disconnected you can't find the router again without a reboot. Looking at the logs shows a lot of dropped packets
I'm suspecting it might be a Router problem. mine is a D-Link . I tried cutting the power output to 50% and gave it a couple of good cleans inside to no avail.
Maybe you have something similar happening . Dont like your chances of a reboot though to test it.

@01micko @tytower @watchdog @cthisbear
Thanks for helpful suggestions, which turned out to be unnecessary - but are gratefully accepted in the spirit they were offered.
The problem seems to have gone away without my doing anything. My best guess, now, is that tytower was right and it was an issue in the router (which belongs to McDonalds and so is outside my control).
If this issue arises again I will be less likely to blame Puppy - but you'll understand that when something doesn't work the first time you are using a new distro that is where the finger tends to point...
The site I usually ping is www.whitehouse.gov (as that is one of the most always-up sites on the net). Using 188.8.131.52 is a new one to me - I will remember that.
A couple of responses to specific suggestions:
The site I usually ping by name is www.whitehouse.gov (as that is one of the most always-up sites on the net). Using 220.127.116.11 is a new one to me - I will remember that.
Some readers may wonder why it is useful to have a mix of numeric and named ping addresses - that because if the numeric ping works and the ping by name fails, it suggests DNS as the next place to look for issues.
thanks for the suggestion about frisbee - it is a useful alternative to the standard wifi software that comes with Puppy. I tried it anyway, even though the issue had resolved itself by then.
It was also, as it happens, my very first pet install, so I learnt something from doing that successfully.
I like the way it tells you what it is doing as it connects and so on.
Would it have solved the problem I was having the other day? Who knows - impossible to check now. But I will be using it in the future in any case. So something good came out of this problem

Best-selling Australian author Bryce Courtenay, whose debut novel, "The Power of One," was made into a popular 1992 movie starring Morgan Freeman, has died. He was 79.
Courtenay died Thursday at his home in Canberra, Australia, according to his publisher, Penguin Group Australia. The cause was stomach cancer.
The South African-born Courtenay launched his fiction-writing career at age 50 and considered his first novels "practice books." But "The Power of One," the powerful story of a young boy's difficult journey to adulthood under the shadow of South Africa's apartheid regime, was an instant success when it was published in 1989.
"I was absolutely staggered when somebody wanted to publish it in the first place," Courtenay said in his official Penguin biography.
"Now it's a worldwide success and the fact that it's available in 12 languages still amazes me," he said. The book, which drew on Courtenay's own tough childhood, earned him a $1 million advance and garnered glowing reviews.
Courtenay explained the philosophy behind the book's title in a 1989 Times interview.
"The power of one is that thing that makes all people who have a tendency to succeed, succeed," he said. "It is the highest level of [personal] survival. I really believe that life is a question of letdowns and broken contracts. We can exist within that situation or we can prevail.
"The power of one is the person who insists that he will prevail."
The illegitimate son of a dressmaker mother, Courtenay was born Aug. 14, 1933, in the mountain town of Barberton in northeast South Africa. Part of his childhood was spent in an orphanage.
By age 17, he was working in the dangerous copper mines of what is now Zimbabwe. He eventually saved enough money to make his way to Britain, where he studied journalism in London. He met an Australian, Benita Solomon, and married her in 1958 after moving to her hometown of Sydney. The pair divorced in 2000.
Courtenay began a career in advertising with McCann-Erickson in Sydney, rising quickly to become creative director, then repeated the ascent at J. Walter Thompson.
At age 40, he had an epiphany: Courtenay decided to quit his job and start his own advertising agency with the idea of selling it at a profit within 10 years, when he planned to fulfill his lifelong dream of becoming a novelist. He did both.
A dedicated writer who was said to work 12 hours a day, six days a week, Courtenay fell into a pattern of publishing a book nearly every year, just before Christmas. Most were bestsellers in Australia.
After "The Power of One," Courtenay dedicated its sequel, "Tandia," to his youngest son, Damon, who died of AIDS at 24 in 1991 — two months before the book was published.
His son's death inspired Courtenay's only nonfiction book, 1993's "April Fool's Day," about the public's early ostracism of those with AIDS.
Courtenay, who was diagnosed with stomach cancer in 2010, had known since June that there was no hope of a cure. In his last book, "Jack of Diamonds," which was published Nov. 12, he addressed his readers in a moving epilogue:
"It's been a privilege to write for you and to have you accept me as a storyteller in your lives. Now, as my story draws to an end, may I say only, 'Thank you. You have been simply wonderful.' "
Courtenay's survivors include his wife of seven years, Christine, and his sons Brett and Adam.

Guy Tries Using Justin Bieber Lyrics as Pick Up Lines
We know that Justin Bieber makes millions of girls swoon with his romantic lyrics, but can a regular Joe use those lines to pick up chicks? That's what one fella is putting to the test, as he approaches unsuspecting women and tries to make them fall in love with JB's romantic lyrics.
Tommy says that he's "romantically challenged," so thought this would be the perfect way to approach girls. He starts off with "Boyfriend," but the girl calls his bluff and asks him if he's a Justin Bieber fan. Another attempt involves "Beauty and Beat," which pretty much leaves the girl speechless (and not in a good way). To see if Tommy has any luck, watch the video above!

I like this book because it reminds me of my grandpa. My grandpa was kind to me too. My favorite part was when the girl was little and the cat was looking at her. I liked the pictures because the colors are pretty. Aliki used colored pencils to make these pictures. Aliki often writes stories about families. My favorite character was the little girl. I play a flute like her and like to help people.
I think somebody might want to read this book because they would like the pictures. This is a good book for children to read by themselves or with an adult. It also shows how people can help each other.

1 dead in trench collapse on NC State campus
1 dead in trench collapse on NC State campus
A worker died Tuesday after being buried in a trench while doing work on the campus of North Carolina State University.
The trench collapsed at the Lonnie Poole Golf Course on the college's Centennial Campus, WNCN reported.
Rescuers recovered the person's body from the trench about 2 1/2 hours after arrival. The worker, who hasn't been identified, was found under a couple feet of dirt about 4 feet below the ground, emergency officials said.
Crews had to vacuum out the soil, and rescuers didn't try to go in due to unstable ground.
The construction project, run by the City of Raleigh, involves the installation of 18,000 feet of a 16-inch water line.

Prom Coming To OVHS
Dear Editor,
My name is Cathy Woodruff and I am very fortunate to work with the youth of Owen County as a math teacher at Owen Valley High School. I recently took on another title as the Junior Class Sponsor. And you know what that means... PROM! I am very excited and somewhat scared about this prospect. It is a big task, but I wanted to do it for the students so that they would have a great prom with lasting memories.
I didn't take the job until October, which is late in the process. Therefore, there will be a lot of changes. One big change is the venue. This year the prom will be at OVHS on April 30, 2011. Scheduling and economics has left us no choice. I, however, look upon this with great optimism and opportunity. I would like to use this as an opportunity to start some new traditions. We would like to have some kind of Grand March or Promenade with a community time for the families to come in to see. I am also working on a place for students to have dinner in town without having to travel out of county.
Why am I writing you? Because we need help! Funds are short, so donations are always accepted. We would appreciate any donations of blue and/or white Christmas lights. We could use expertise in the area of lighting and some minimal construction. Junior class parents will be putting on the Post-Prom for the students at the school. I am very fortunate to have Alyssa Rice on my side. She, along with some other parents, is in the process of raising funds and planning for a great Post-Prom for the students. I know she could use many more parents to help.
In short, I, and my small student committee, see this as a chance to make prom "an elegant and memorable night" for the students of Owen Valley High School. I can be contacted at the high school, 829-2266.
Cathy Woodruff
Junior Class Sponsor,
Owen Valley High School

NHANES III oversampled children under age 5, persons age 60 and above, Mexican Americans, and blacks. Prevalence estimates were weighted to represent total U.S. population and accounted for oversampling and nonresponse to household interview and physical examination.
Of the 9,629 subjects selected to participate in the survey in the 12-59 age group, 7,476 (77.6 percent) agreed to examination; from them, 7,218 serum samples were available for testing. HPV-16-specific IgG antibody was detected by use of an HPV-16 virus-like particle ELISA.
Overall, 13 percent of study participants had antibodies to HPV-16. Seroprevalence was significantly higher in women (17.9 percent) than in men (7.9 percent), yielding a female:male prevalence ratio of 2.3. Seroprevalence was 12.5 percent among whites, 19.1 percent among blacks, and 8.9 percent among Mexican Americans. With increasing age, HPV-16 seroprevalence increased in women to 24.7 percent at ages 20-29 years and then declined to 11 percent after age 49 years. In men, seroprevalence peaked later, at ages 30-39 years (11.5 percent) and was sustained throughout older age groups.
In men, HPV-16 seropositivity was significantly associated with several variables, including age, race/ethnicity, marital status, poverty index, urban residence, age at first intercourse, years of sexual activity, number of lifetime sex partners, number of sex partners during the last year, and having sex with a man. In the logistic model, variables that remained statistically significant were age, urban residence, race/ethnicity, age at first intercourse, years of sexual activity, and having sex with men. No other variables appeared to be confounders. Although age was no longer statistically significant, it appeared to be confounded with years of sexual activity.
The most likely explanation for higher HPV-16 seropositivity in women is that women and men have fundamental differences in immune response after exposure. In men, HPV infections may be more transient, and infection often involves keratinized epithelium that may be less likely than mucosal epithelium to induce humoral immune response. Anorectal mucosal exposure may be more likely to produce a detectable immune response and could contribute to the high seropositivity in MSM. The strong association between HPV-16 seropositivity and number of lifetime sex partners and no association with number of recent partners suggest seropositivity is a measure of lifetime rather than recent exposure.
"Our national data on seroepidemiology of naturally occurring HPV-16 infection," researchers concluded, "is useful to establish baseline HPV-16 seroprevalence in demographic groups, to highlight differences in humoral immune responses between men and women, and to document a high burden of infection with this single HPV type. Moreover, a system for monitoring seroprevalence over time will be valuable to assess effectiveness of vaccine programs."

A state Department of Housing and Community Development spokesman said no one in that department told the Auburn Housing Authority not to vote on whether to allow a skating rink on Pakachoag Hill, though authority chairman Betty Bacinskas said they did.
Town Public Works Director William A. Coyle had hoped to erect the rink on the Pakachoag Hill housing site but the the housing authority pointed out that the land is on property it controls. Mr. Coyle said "we're now considering alternate sites."
In past years, a little-used skating rink had been put up by the former Parks Department behind the Randall School building on West Street.
In denying Mr. Bacinskas' account, Matthew T. Sheaff, the state department's director of communications, said, "It is a local issue. I spoke with staff, including legal staff. I want to be clear on this. No one advised them to vote or not to vote. No state counsel told them to vote or not to vote. There is no role for the state unless they vote to approve the rink."
At Wednesday's housing authority meeting, Ms. Bacinskas said the state department had been contacted and "has advised that the Auburn Housing Authority should not vote on the proposed skating rink." She said that "on advice of counsel," there would be no vote taken and immediately adjourned the meeting, allowing no discussion or debate.
She suggested that anyone interested contact the Department of Housing and Community Development.
The authority discussed the rink at its meeting of Dec. 4. Four of five housing authority members spoke against the rink but the board delayed a vote until Wednesday's meeting so that residents could be polled.
Ms. Brennan said she polled 35 residents at Pakachoag Village, and 20 said they did not want the rink abutting their housing complex.
Wayne C. Page, chairman of the Council on Aging, said a survey done at the Lorraine Gleick Nordgren Senior Center found that more than 80 percent of 73 respondents wanted the skating rink.
"I am extremely disappointed in the housing authority," Mr. Page said. "We are trying to better the town, not work against it. The town wanted to build a bridge. The housing authority demolished it. They are causing a deep division between the town and the housing authority. I think it's time to look into replacing authority members and the director."
In an email sent Tuesday to Lori E. Brennan, executive director of the local authority, Courtney Curran, assistant director of the state department's Bureau of Housing Management, said: "it is the board's decision about whether or not they want to encourage the town to build a temporary ice skating rink on AHA … property. I suggest the board thoroughly consider the impact on the abutting residents … and the overall impact on liability to the AHA."
In a follow-up email to Ms. Brennan dated Wednesday, Ms. Curran said, "While you have stated that the Auburn Housing Authority is not interested in the rink at this time, if reconsidering in the future, the board would need to negotiate with the town the ongoing care and maintenance and a complete release/hold harmless agreement with the AHA." Mr. Sheaff, the state spokesman, said he believed there is no appeal process for the town if the local authority turns down the request for the rink.
Mr. Sheaff said Robert Carreiro, risk management specialist at the department, had spoken with Ms. Brennan about potential liability at the rink.
Ms. Brennan said, "It's all about liability. It's state land. We just don't want to do anything wrong."

Kings send Bernier to Leafs
The Los Angeles Kings, the parent club of the Manchester Monarchs, traded goaltender Jonathan Bernier to the Toronto Maple Leafs for forward Matt Frattin, goaltender Ben Scrivens and a second-round draft pick on Sunday.
Bernier was a first-round pick (11th overall) in 2006. He played in 62 career regular season games with the Kings (and one playoff game), posting a record of 29-20-6, a .912 save percentage, a 2.36 goals-against average and six shutouts.
Bernier has been stuck behind L.A. starter Jonathan Quick. Both are former Monarchs. In three seasons with Manchester from 2007-10 Bernier recorded 54 victories in 115 games played.
Frattin played in 25 regular-season games with the Maple Leafs this season, recording 13 points. Scrivens played in 20 games this season, going 7-9-0 record with two shutouts, a 2.69 goals-against average and a .915 save percentage.
The second-round draft selection acquired by the Kings as part of the trade will be in 2014 or 2015 (Toronto's option).

In 2013, Natalie Sisson, founder of thesuitcaseentrepreneur.com, successfully crowdfunded her new book (appropriately titled: The Suitcase Entrepreneur ). Natalie already had an established platform with a devoted following, but crowdfunding her book gave her the opportunity to activate and catalyze this audience. Not only did she fully fund her book, but when it was officially released on Amazon, it became a best-seller almost overnight.
She has since leveraged this success into appearances in major press like
Popular Shoulder Bag for Women On Sale Black polyester 2017 one size Borbonese Discount Finishline o2blC9
(among many others).
Yes, anyone can self-publish, but how many can raise thousands from their supporters before the books been written?
In the past few years, crowdfunding has blown up.
The first crowdfunding platforms started in 2003 but really gained traction in 2008 and beyond.
These included: ChipIn (2005), EquityNet (2005), Pledgie (2006), Sellaband (2006), IndieGoGo (2008), GiveForward (2008), FundRazr (2009), Kickstarter (2009), RocketHub (2009), Fundly (2009), GoFundMe (2010), Microventures (2010) and Fundageek (2011). ( source )
And the trend hasn't stopped.
There are even more crowdfunding platforms today. In fact, it feels like there's a crowdfunding platform for every person, every niche, and every purpose on the planet.
Just yesterday I found a crowdfunding platform for combat disabled veterans . It doesn't get more niche than that.
When it came to crowdfunding my book, there were only three real options (since I'm not combat disabled):
I'll briefly cover each and the thought process behind why I chose the one I did (Publishizer).
Kickstarter makes the list for several reasons, not least of which is the fact that South Park ripped on them earlier this season.
In all seriousness, Kickstarter is one of the most popular crowdfunding sites on the internet. Like Google, Kickstarter is commonly used as a verb ("he kickstarted his latest book"), and has become synonymous with crowdfunding.
Every day, hundreds of new projects are started on Kickstarter. Of those, about
Discount Classic La Pliage Foldable Shoulder Bag Only One Size / Blue Longchamp Free Shipping Visit New Sast Sale Online 668DAa
A couple of great reasons to use Kickstarter:
Lots of people and companies use Kickstarter to fund their projects, including many authors. The two books I've mentioned earlier – by AJ Leon and Seth Godin – both used the platform for their books. Leo Babuata is currently crushing his book's funding goal right now on the platform.
That said, there are a couple reasons I didn't go with Kickstarter:
Fees: 5% + Amazon fee (3-5%)
Indiegogo is a lot like Kickstarter – it's a massive platform that allows people to crowdfund just about anything. However, whileKickstarter is fairly restrictive with what you can crowdfund and how you can do it, Indiegogo is much more flexible.
For example, with Indiegogo, you can set "flexible" funding as an option. So if your goal is $10,000 but you only raise $3,000, you get to keep that $3,000 (minus 9%).

This is the shredder Ed and I use in our offices. It's shreds (cross-cuts) up to 16-pages at once including staples, credit cards, CD/DVDs, and paper clips (however,
I recommend removing and reusing the paper clip as opposed to shredding it). It holds a good amount of paper, it's a bit quieter than our old one, and it has never jammed to date!
If you've always wanted a laminator but thought they were too expensive, this is the best "bang for your buck" laminator on the market! The machine itself is just under

On the other hand, if you're looking for a super duper professional series reallllllly thick lamination, this isn't the machine for you.

For the third time since December, the city of Tuscaloosa is looking to sell the downtown headquarters of Focus on Senior Citizens. Just as before, nearby residents are concerned with how the new ownership will affect them.
For the third time since December, the city of Tuscaloosa is looking to sell the downtown headquarters of Focus on Senior Citizens.
Just as before, nearby residents are concerned with how the new ownership will affect them.
Each time the 13,000-square-foot facility on Sixth Street has come up for bid there has been only one interested party: University Stations LLC, a company consisting of Charles Spurlin, owner of The Shirt Shop on Greensboro Avenue, and the owners of Innisfree Irish Pub, which now operates next door to the Focus building.
The first bid was overturned after residents complained it was not fairly advertised. University Stations was again the lone bidder after the second round, but its offer was rejected after it failed to meet all the requirements laid out by City Hall.
University Stations' latest offer was submitted Monday and is $1.1 million, the appraised value of the property. The company plans to convert the building into six individual spaces — five for daytime retail, such as boutiques or small specialty shops, and the sixth as a 3,500-square-foot banquet hall to be used for private events.
The City Council's Properties Committee was informed of the bid on Tuesday, but it won't make a decision on the offer until at least Nov. 19, when the council's Community Development Committee will host a hearing to gather comments from residents.
Should the sale be approved, Focus will move to the Leroy McAbee Sr. Activity Center on Loop Road. Proceeds from the sale will be used to renovate the McAbee Center to accommodate the seniors group.
Members of the Original City Association say they are worried that allowing University Stations to buy the building will increase the party-like atmosphere the area has experienced since the arrival of Innisfree.
Association president Kelly Fitts said that in 2010, just months after Innisfree moved from Greensboro Avenue to its current location on University Boulevard, residents of nearby historic neighborhoods began experiencing the effects of drunk and wandering bar patrons.
"We currently have a problem with intoxicated people wandering through our neighborhoods — and into our homes, on occasion — and causing instances of vandalism to our property," she said.
Fitts said at least two intoxicated strangers have stumbled into her Audubon Place home, one has fallen into her property's fish pond, and she's seen more than she can recall wander through her backyard.
Twentieth Avenue resident John Earl, who lives two blocks from the bar, also reported a harrowing incident with a bar patron that involved the Tuscaloosa Police Department.
"I've had three policemen pull a patron of Innisfree from my roof," Earl said. "He'd been in a fight and the police pursued him down 20th Avenue until he ran behind my house and somehow managed to climb on top of my roof.
"I would not like any more people who drink too much wandering in or driving on the streets."
In October, the city's Office of Planning and Development Services conducted an unofficial survey of the streets surrounding Innisfree and nearby neighborhoods.
Over the course of three weekends — Aug. 15-17, the week before University of Alabama began its fall semester; Aug. 22-24, the weekend after classes began, and on Sept. 21, the Saturday of the Crimson Tide's first home football game — a team of city officials and police officers, including Chief Steve Anderson, watched the activity of downtown patrons as they left Innisfree and surrounding establishments.
They saw six incidents of public urination, one fight outside Innisfree, one person vomiting on Seventh Street, more than 20 house parties and lots of people walking.
"A lot of them were staggering," McConnell told the City Council's Properties Committee on Oct. 1. "There's a lot of walking going on. And if you're impaired, walking is a lot better than driving."
But they did not see any activity trends that would necessitate immediate law enforcement or public safety involvement, McConnell said.
"Quite honestly," McConnell told the committee, "it's pretty peaceful."
Spurlin said he has met numerous times with members of the Original City Association and residents of the nearby neighborhoods to try to address their concerns.
Those meetings, Spurlin said, are now over.
"We've had the darnedest time with these neighborhoods," Spurlin said. "I've met with them, but I'm not meeting with them anymore. They don't hear what I say."
Spurlin said he has repeatedly said the banquet hall would not be physically connected to Innisfree. Rather, it would be served by Innisfree's kitchen and bar whenever it was in use for a private function.
He said his goal is to restore the Focus building to much of its original look, with exposed brick on the exterior and tall ceilings and hardwood floors on the inside.
Spurlin referenced other downtown establishments he has had a hand in revitalizing — Mellow Mushroom, Catch 22, Five Restaurant and Coffee Shop and several locations inside Temerson Square — as examples of how he intends to restore the Focus building.
Tripp Rogers, a co-owner of Innisfree, said the banquet hall space would not be used unless it is being rented.
"It will not be used as an overflow," Rogers said, noting that Innisfree's 4,700 square feet of space was ample for his purposes. "I don't want a huge bar. We have plenty of room."
Fitts said she was aware of the assurances made by Spurlin and Rogers. And while she and her neighbors are prepared for some disturbances because of their proximity to the UA campus, she said the events have steadily increased for her and others in the downtown area in recent years.
This has caused her to worry not only about her neighborhood, she said, but also the fate of the patrons — many of whom are UA students — and the possibility that one may wander into the wrong house and end up shot.
"We just want to live among people who have respect for the law, and everybody needs to have respect for others," she said. "When it's your home and your property that someone is trespassing into or someone is vandalizing, it only takes one or two incidents of that to make you mad."

I'm facing a big decision and I want to make sure I'm making the right decision. I'm usually quite good at making decisions quickly and decisively (I'd be the first to admit they aren't always right). However one decision has been causing me trouble and chewing up a lot of my brain space. So I decided to spend a morning writing down a framework and approach that I will use to make this decision and future big decisions. The idea being that at the end of this I will have a decision making framework that will help me (1) to avoid making the same mistake twice and (2) evolve it overtime to make better and better big decisions in the face of greater and greater uncertainty.
Overall philosophy: When it comes to any decision with unknowns I believe that your conscious, rational brain cannot find the answer alone. Your conscious, rational brain is useful for processing the information at hand, attempting to remove biases but its ultimate responsibility is gathering and preparing this information for the irrational, emotional part of the brain. It is your subconscious, irrational and emotional brain that is the ultimate (and best) decision maker when faced with many unknowns.
I'm not alone in thinking like this. Many scholars that study big strategic decisions in business think like this, for example, take a read of something from Daniel Kahneman. You can listen to actor and comedian Stephen Fry talking about the feeling behind a decision.
So to come up with a "Making Big Decisions Framework" will require a process that guides the mind through use of the best of the rational brain with the best of the emotional brain.
Phase 1: Process everything.
This phase is about processing all the information at hand in as many ways as possible and processing the information in a way that digs into your subconscious or emotional responses to the decision. To ensure you have done this properly you will probably need to do the following:
- List your instincts.
- List and describe your alternatives (see Lifehacker for a very analytical way of doing this).
- List different ways of looking at the decision.
- List the risks
- Use Jeff Bezo's regret minimisation framework (do the thing that will leave you with the least amount of regrets)
- Write down what happened last time you were in a similar situation.
- Assess each of the above.
- Assess your emotions, your emotional responses to the above and your biases
See HBR blog and see Stephen Fry's comments on really understanding how you feel about something.
Phase 1.a: Consult others.
[Edit: made this a separate section, in an early draft it was, then it wasn't, now it is – it's important – thanks Dave]
Now that your thoughts are straight, start gathering the opinions of others. This is a very important step, if done correctly it can enable you to stand on the shoulders of giants, see through the eyes of someone that has been in a similar situation.
However, if done incorrectly it can lead you a stray. Here are a few things to remember when consulting others:
- Others have biases and approaches that they prefer – ask yourself "why have they said that? why do they think that way? why have they arrived at that statement?"
- You may have presented information to them in a way that has made them respond that way.
- It's easy to be commentator. It's a whole other ball game being on the field.
- Ultimately you need to decide, not someone else.
Phase 2: Take timeout.
There are good reasons for taking timeout. First, if you can't reach a decision doing so will allow your subconscious brain to mull over everything you did in Phase 1 and maybe produce an answer for you. John Cleese does a better job of explaining it than I do.
Second, if you are feeling pressured taking timeout will give your brain the space it requires to think freely and taking timeout might make you realise the outcome of your decision probably won't lead to your end. Again, John Cleese does a great job of explaining this.
After you've taken some timeout you might go back to processing more information or you might be ready to make the decision. Either way, it is important to be very clear in your mind about what you want from life – what is the bigger picture within which this decision fits?
Phase 3: Make the decision.
Make the decision, write your decision down and write down why you have chosen to make that decision.
I've always found that doing this I will either say "yep that's the one" or "wait, now that I see it in writing it this isn't what I want." If you thought the latter you'll probably want to go back through Phases 1 and 2.
If you're still stuck flip a coin. My father-in-law will fondly recount stories of Board meetings where, when the Board couldn't reach a decision he would flip a coin. They would either agree with the wisdom of the enlightened coin or they would disagree, thereby knowing the right decision is the one not suggested by the coin.
Phase 4: Decision made. Don't look back.
Once a decision is made you can't look back. You must give the decision 100% of your focus and effort.
It is important to remember it is impossible to know the right answer and maximise your return on the decision. There are often too many unknowns. Instead, carrying the decision through will quickly reveal whether it is worthwhile. Nothing is set in stone, it is more important that decisions are made quickly and decisively… then corrected quickly if they turn out to be the wrong one (this is the subject of another post).

In 2009, when Los Angeles' last city park is closed to the public, a dispossessed man and the duck who follows him as a mother quest west, on foot, in search of water and meaning, in the desert that is L.A. Arthur is a retired history professor who has outlived his time and place, friends and family, resources and reasons to live. In the park where his son and wife are buried, Arthur contemplates putting an end to his own life, when he is confronted by an orphaned duckling who has just escaped death. Arthur names this duckling Joe. Joe follows Arthur, the only mother he knows. When their park is landfilled and their pond is drained, Arthur and Joe engage in a Sisyphean struggle to survive, seeking a means to live, a place to live, and a purpose to live, in a world where their lives are not valued. In their search, Arthur and Joe encounter a host of strangers--some hostile, some helpful, some heroic--until, finally forming a community and a home. If we are but six degrees of separation from one another, are we as few to being alone?

|NFL | Lawyer makes recommendations to fix disability system
Wed, 27 Jun 2007 14:07:14 -0700
David Haugh, of the Chicago Tribune, reports Cy Smith, the lawyer for former NFL C Mike Webster, made three recommendations to the House Judiciary subcommittee on how to fix the NFL's disability plan. Smith said there should be a review limit of 45 days for disability applications. Another change he suggested is that an independent arbitrator should decide on whether a former player is eligible for disability. Smith also believes the NFL Players Association needs new leadership.

|Steelers | Ex-C Mike Webster Awarded Disability Benefits
Wed, 27 Apr 2005 11:43:48 -0700
Michael Hasch and Kevin Gorman, of the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review, report the NFL's Retirement and Player Supplemental Disability Plan has been ordered to pay the estate of former C Mike Webster about $1.2 million in additional benefits, according to a federal court Tuesday, April 26. Sunny Jani, an administrator of Webster's estate, had sued the Bert Bell/Pete Rozelle retirement program for wrongful denial of benefits for the family of Webster, who died at age 50 in Septemeber of 2002, following triple bypass surgery. Webster was examined by physicians in 1998 and they found that the constant blows to the head he had received during his career had left him with severe brain damage that left him unfit for any type of gainful employment.

Playoff-bound Warriors now hope to take next step
OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) — Booed one year and celebrated the next, Golden State Warriors owner Joe Lacob feels "a little bit" vindicated now.
The Warriors are going to the playoffs for the first time since 2007 and just the second time in 19 years, no small feat for a franchise that has been beat up by most of the NBA for two decades. The third-year owner finally has the team headed in the right direction, and he's not about to back down from his bold and boisterous ways.
"We're not satisfied with this at all," Lacob said. "We want to make the playoffs, like we did now. We want to go to the next round. I don't know if it's this year or next year, we're going to keep going. And we're going to win an NBA championship here — I guarantee it."
First things first.
Nobody expects the Warriors will even come close to reaching basketball's biggest stage this season — not even Lacob, the Silicon Valley venture capitalist who bought the franchise along with movie mogul Peter Guber for an NBA-record $450 million in 2010. But if they want to make any more noise this year, they'll need to finish out the regular season strong.
Golden State (45-33) remains a game ahead of Houston (44-34) for the Western Conference's sixth seed, which is critical to avoid powerhouses Oklahoma City and San Antonio in the first round. Both teams have four games remaining, and the Rockets own the tiebreaker after taking three of four against the Warriors this season.
Golden State has no time to relax, either. The defending conference champion Thunder visit Oracle Arena on Thursday night.
Warriors coach Mark Jackson shed tears in an emotional locker room celebration after beating Minnesota 105-89 on Tuesday night to clinch a playoff berth. He tried to gather himself and deliver a message he hopes resonates with his players, many of whom have never been to the playoffs.
"I told them, 'Don't you dare go to the baggage claim, because this is just a layover. This is not our final destination," Jackson said. "Celebrate that we got here, but this is not our final destination.'"
Even still, it's a milestone first stop.
The owners overhauled the franchise by hiring Jackson, a former NBA point guard, off the ESPN broadcast table. They also lured sports agent Bob Myers as assistant general manager, then relieved Larry Riley as GM last year to give Myers the top role. Neither had held those titles at any level.
The transition has not always been smooth. Fans battered Lacob with boos last season during Hall of Famer Chris Mullin's jersey retirement ceremony after the team traded fan favorite Monta Ellis for center Andrew Bogut, who is just starting to regain his past form following left ankle surgery that sidelined him most of the season.
Embarrassed at the time, Lacob is able to laugh at that moment now.
"What booing?" he said, chuckling. "Maybe a little bit (of vindication). But you can't worry about that. I understand why people did that. We have to move on from that, and we've got to be tougher than that. I've got to be tougher than that, and we've got to move forward. And we're going to get to where we want to go."
Jackson also took his share of criticism for promising the playoffs before the team finished 23-43 during last year's labor lockout-shortened season. The biggest lesson he learned from his first year on the sideline was simple: "You better get talent," he said.
That's just what Myers and his team did.
The Warriors sent Dorell Wright to Philadelphia in a three-team trade that netted Sixth Man of the Year candidate Jarrett Jack from New Orleans. They signed free agent Carl Landry, drafted Harrison Barnes seventh overall and found role players in rookies Festus Ezeli and Draymond Green.
Most importantly, Stephen Curry's twice-surgically repaired right ankle has held up. David Lee turned in an All-Star season, and Bogut is getting back to being the player that Milwaukee drafted No. 1 overall in 2005.
"I'm happy for our players and our fans. Well deserved, and a long time coming," Myers said.
When the Warriors upset the top-seeded Dallas Mavericks to advance to the second round in 2007, only five current players were even in the NBA. Another five were still in high school.
So forgive the Warriors for dancing around the locker room for what 16 of 30 NBA teams get to celebrate each April. Many never had the chance before.
"We understand this is a small step, but it is a huge accomplishment for a lot of guys in this locker room," Curry said.
Lacob sure savored the moment from courtside, listening to chants of "Playoffs! Playoffs!" from a 30th straight sellout crowd while standing on the same floor he had been booed off of last year. He also congratulated each player at his locker and thanked every coach and staff member for a job well done.
At one point, his son, assistant general manager Kirk Lacob, even questioned why the team was celebrating so much. Lacob had to remind him: "You've got to celebrate the little moments, too. Every step counts."
"It's a very nice accomplishment," Lacob said. "Everybody should be proud. It's a great reflection on the entire organization and all the changes we made, a lot of really hard work by a lot of people. At the end of the day, these players made it happen and they deserve all the credit in the world. This is the first step. Now we've got to take it to the next step."

Liverpool trigger release clause for Aston Villa striker Benteke
Liverpool have triggered the £32.5million release clause in Christian Benteke's Aston Villa contract.
It was reported on Thursday morning that Manchester United were ready to capitalise on Liverpool's reluctance to meet Villa's asking price for Benteke by making their own move, but Brendan Rodgers' side have now given into the Midlanders' demands.
Benteke is now free to discuss personal terms with the Reds and will become their second most expensive signing, behind Andy Carroll, should the transfer go ahead.
Benteke scored 49 goals in 101 appearances for Villa over the past three seasons, including six goals in 12 matches at the end of last campaign to help Tim Sherwood's side to safety.
Liverpool have already bought James Milner, Danny Ings, Nathaniel Clyne, Joe Gomez, Adam Bogdan and Roberto Firmino this summer, with the Benteke deal set to take their spending to around the £80million mark.

Noreve case for TrekStor vibez (A mini-review)
Just thought I'd contribute a mini-review I posted a couple of months ago at dapreview, Riovolution and Head-fi. Hope it's useful:
"So, I just got my brand spankin' new Noreve case for my TrekStor vibez in the mail today. I'll try to get some decent pictures up later, but I will say, so far, I'm happy with this purchase.
"The first question is how's the fit? I would say it's nearly perfect. Out of the box the vibez does seem just a little bit high, such that the very top of the wheel and the triangle button sit just a little too close to the top of the opening in the case. I suspect as it breaks in some, the vibez will fit perfectly. Either way no complaints. Also note, the opening for the screen is just an opening, there is no additional plastic that might cause screen glare or make it harder to read.
"The case also comes with a handy-dandy belt clip. Out of the box, the clip is not attached, which is a very good thing if you plan to keep it in a bag or pocket most of the time. This helps keep the overall size to a minimum. I haven't tried the clip yet, so I can't comment there.
I will say that the vibez seems very well protected from all angles while providing easy access to all controls and the headphone out jack. The built-in microphone is covered whenever the vibez is in the case, which could pose a problem for people that use it. The USB port is accessible when the case flap is open only. Which is fine, I can't think of a time when I'd want to plug in a USB cable but need to have the flap closed.
Another side benefit, the case also makes the vibez a hell of a lot easier to grip. And if I drop it, I won't worry about getting any (more) scratches on my screen.
"Just like the vibez itself, this case definitely has a different look to it, just by virtue of being mostly oval. I think the look is very elegant and nice to the touch. By elegant, I also mean that this case is probably less than ideal for use at the gym or for running. (By contrast, the old Technohm case I had for my Karma was built like a tank.)
"To sum up, for $46 including shipping, I think I made a very good investment to help me enjoy my vibez even more than I already do. Considering that there really are no other options on the market yet, I think this is a must have for any vibez owner.
TrekStor vibez + Grado SR-60 = Pure bliss
TrekStor vibez + Sennheiser PX100 = Portable happines.

The HT series casio made back in the 80's are quite odd- basic analog subtractive (with a single VCF), auto accompaniement and lofi digital drums ala RZ-1, no sampling though. My unit is still unmodified, and I've been trying to multisample the instrument sounds but jeeez, it's too noisy! I'll probably do some minor mods to it, i.e knobs for filters, maybe a LFO and a ext. input.
Anyhow, I love them. Enjoy.

To help meet a growing community need for inpatient psychiatric hospital beds and psychiatric services, Northwest Hospital has opened a new and expanded behavioral health unit in its newest tower. The old unit was licensed for 14 beds; the new one, which opened its doors in early February 2013, is licensed for 23 beds.
The Patients
The psychiatric unit will serve adult patients over the age of 18 who need to be hospitalized for conditions such as depression, schizophrenia and mood disorders. These patients have emotional and behavioral difficulties, so they can no longer live or function safely in their usual daily environment and routine.
The Unit
The design of the unit took patient safety and well-being considerations into account. To prevent patients from harming themselves, doors, lighting and bathroom fixtures have safety mechanisms; artwork is mounted within the walls; power outlets are safety-proofed; and electronic beds have enclosed wiring. The new unit is very aesthetically pleasing and has two communal rooms equipped with large, flat-screen televisions. Patients are encouraged to join in the unit's support groups, arts and crafts sessions, and social events held in these rooms.
The Treatment
The inpatient unit provides 24-hour skilled psychiatric nursing care and interventions, daily assessment and treatment oversight by a psychiatrist, and a coordinated, goal-driven plan of care delivered by a multidisciplinary team of mental health professionals. The focus is on rapid stabilization of acute psychiatric symptoms. This is accomplished during an average length of stay of six days, in preparation for moving the patient to the next phase of treatment in a less restrictive setting.
Additional consultations from specialists such as dieticians are available as needed. The multidisciplinary treatment team combines various fields of expertise to provide the most positive therapeutic experience possible for each patient. Multiple treatment modalities are used, including individual therapy, group therapy, education groups, family therapy and physician oversight.
Patients are encouraged to join in the unit's therapeutic support groups, including expressive therapies such as art and music, and social events. These activities are held in two communal rooms.
Psychiatric Consultation Services
Psychiatric consultation, including treatment recommendations, is available both to patients who are admitted through Northwest Hospital's ER-7 and to patients who are hospitalized on medical/surgical units. Consultations are provided by a master's level psychiatric nurse and social work clinicians with psychiatrist back up.
At Northwest Hospital, patients are treated with dignity, understanding and respect. Free parking is conveniently located directly across from the hospital on Carlson Lane. For more information about Psychiatric Services at Northwest Hospital, call 410-601-5461.

Morning fire at former Workout World in Nashua under investigationBy KIMBERLY HOUGHTON
Union Leader Correspondent
October 09. 2013 10:06AM
NASHUA — A fire broke out Wednesday morning at a vacant commercial building on Main Street, and the cause of the blaze is still under investigation.
A passerby noticed the fire around 6 a.m. at the former Workout World facility at 300 Main St. When fire crews arrived, smoke and flames were visible from the roof of the building, according to fire officials.
Two adjacent businesses were evacuated as a precaution. According to a release from Deputy Fire Chief Karl Gerhard, the fire was contained to the roof of the structure and was quickly brought under control.
He said the facility is currently vacant but was under renovation and had been used to house mechanical equipment until recently.
There are other businesses within the large commercial structure, including the Dollar Tree.
No one was injured in the fire, which is believed to have originated in the roof. The cause of the blaze is still under investigation.

Twitter: @YaleWBBdawgz | Yale Basketball On Facebook
NEW HAVEN, Conn. - The Yale women's basketball team returns to John J. Lee Amphitheater for a pair of Ivy League contests this weekend. The Bulldogs host Dartmouth on Friday night and welcome Harvard on Saturday night. Both games will tip-off at 7 p.m. Saturday's Yale-Harvard game is also "Special Olympics Night" and will feature a halftime ceremony and abbreviated game.
Yale (9-9, 3-1 Ivy League) split a pair of road tilts last weekend and are off to a 3-1 start in Ivy League play for the third time in four seasons. The Bulldogs opened the weekend with a 25-point win at Columbia on Jan. 31 as their defense forced a season-high 28 turnovers.Meredith Boardman and Lena Munzer led the offense with 13 points apiece in game that Yale led from wire-to-wire.
After being tied at halftime, a late spurt in the second half carried Cornell to a nine-point win, giving Yale its first Ivy loss. Sarah Halejian was the sole Bulldog in double-figures with 19 points.
Halejian continues to lead Yale in scoring at 14.9 points per game, while Boardman is the team's top rebounder at 6.4 per game.
Scouting Dartmouth
Series History: Dartmouth leads, 48-21.
The teams split last season's series, but Yale have won six of the last seven meetings dating back to Feb. 13, 2010.
Belle Koclanes is in her first season as head coach at Dartmouth and has a young squad that features just two seniors. The Big Green feature one of the top rookies in the Ivy League in Fanni Szabo. The 5-9 guard leads the team in scoring (15.5 ppg), assists (40) and steals (43). She ranks third in the Ivy League in scoring, while leading the league in steals and ranking second in minutes played (33.3).
Scouting Harvard
Series History: Harvard leads the series, 44-31, dating back to 1974.
The Crimson have won the last three meetings in the series, but Yale won the three meetings prior from Feb. 11, 2011-Jan. 27, 2012.
Harvard enters the weekend in a three-way tie atop the Ivy standings. The Crimson are one of the top offenses in the league, ranking second in scoring (70.9), free throw percentage (.728), field goal percentage (.420) and three-point field goals per game (6.4). Christine Clark leads the team in scoring (16.5), which ranks second in the Ivy. Temi Fagbenle adds 12.9 ppg, while grabbing 9.6 rebounds per game, which is tops in the Ivy League.
What To Watch For
Scoring Distribution: In each of their first four games in Ivy League play, the Bulldogs have had at least nine players score. Yale's bench is contributing 26.3 points per game in Ivy play and the balanced production has been a boost to the offense, which is averaging over 68 points. Against Columbia, Yale was extremely efficient at spreading the offense around, recording 21 assists on 28 field goals.
Starting Fast: Yale has been at its best this season when it gets out to an early lead, best demonstrated by its 8-1 record when leading at halftime. The Bulldogs raced out to a 25-point margin at Columbia en route to the victory and will look to do the same in a pair of critical contest this weekend.
Rebounding: The Bulldogs have been among the top rebounding teams in the Ivy League this season with a +0.67 rebounding margin. Dartmouth is led on the glass by Lakin Roland (5.8) and Abbey Schmitt (5.1), which will provide a stern test to Yale's rebounding efforts this weekend. Harvard will bring the top rebounding offense in the league (43.1 rpg), led by Temi Fagbenle (9.6 rpg) - the league's top rebounder - to test the Bulldogs.
Looking Ahead
The Bulldogs return to the road for contests at Penn on Feb. 14 before facing Princeton on Feb. 15. Both games tip at 7 p.m.
Yale will return home to play its final four home games of the season, including Feb. 22's annual "Battle of the Badges"/Pink Zone game. Proceeds from the day will benefit breast cancer research at Smilow Cancer Hospital at Yale-New Haven. Fans wearing pink or making a donation will get free admission.

PLEASANT PLAIN, Ohio (AP) — An Ohio woman has been reunited with her dog more than a month after it ran off after being struck by a car.
A caller told Paula Heckathorn a dog had been hanging around his house. The Cincinnati Enquirer reports (http://bit.ly/1eh66Au ) that he had lured the dog to him with some sausages, and then called the phone number on his collar.
The man, Jonathon Simonson, lives in Wilmington. That's 22 miles from Heckathorn's home in Pleasant Plain, a small community in southwest Ohio.
The 9-year-old Australian shepherd is named Cody. It had darted into the street June 30, was hit by a car and ran away.
Back home, the dog has been treated for a laceration and had 25 ticks removed.
