ATLANTA — NBA hall of famer Michael Jordan asked a Georgia court on Monday to dismiss a paternity suit against him, calling it a "shameless, bad faith attempt to abuse the legal system."
Jordan's lawyer John Mayoue said in a document filed in Fulton County Superior Court that the six-time NBA champion is not the father of Pamela Y. Smith's 16-year-old son. The paternity of the teen was "conclusively established" in divorce filings between Smith and her ex-husband, Jordan's attorney wrote.
Jordan, 50, is the majority owner of the NBA's Charlotte Bobcats. His spokeswoman Estee Portnoy released a statement to The Associated Press.
"Public records show that the paternity of the child was established in a prior case in this same court many years ago and that Michael Jordan is not the father. He also filed a counterclaim seeking sanctions for the false claims made against him. It is unfortunate that well-known figures are the target of these kind of claims. Michael Jordan will vigorously defend himself and his reputation."
In response to Smith's lawsuit, Jordan's lawyer attached a 2003 divorce court filing between Smith and her then-husband Glenville G. Reynolds. The document said there was just one son born out of the marriage and listed the child's birth date and name. At the end of the document, there is a statement signed by Smith saying everything is "true and correct to the best of my knowledge and belief."
The filing said Smith will have legal and physical custody of the child and Reynolds can have visitation. Reynolds was expected to pay child support for the child.
A telephone listed for Reynolds was disconnected. Smith's publicist did not immediately have a comment on Jordan's court filing.
Smith's lawsuit requests Jordan take a paternity test, pay child support and share medical, dental and hospital costs not covered by insurance. She also requested the boy's last name be changed to Jordan, and asked a judge to order the Georgia Department of Vital Records to issue him a new birth certificate.
The lawsuit requests that any hearing or trial be conducted in closed court to protect the teen's privacy.
However, Smith's publicist acknowledged the teen posted a video to YouTube on Dec. 25, saying Jordan is his father and that he wants him to play a larger role in his life. Continued...
"Pamela had no choice but to support her son and his desire to forge a relationship with his father," Smith's publicist, April Love, said in a statement Friday. "That's why she is now speaking out and prompting Michael to do the right thing."
Love said Smith, 48, and Jordan met in Chicago in the late 1980s.
According to court documents, Smith does not have an attorney. A court date is scheduled for March 12.
Jordan remains one of the most recognized sports figures in the world nearly 10 years after his retirement from the NBA. He was a 14-time NBA all-star and won six championships with the Chicago Bulls and was named the finals MVP six times.
On March 17, 2010, the NBA Board of Governors unanimously approved Jordan's purchase of the Bobcats, making him the first former NBA player ever to become the majority owner of a league franchise.

Ike: Countdown to D-Day
Going for Broke
In July, it seemed like Kevin Costner was unstoppable, having lined up high-profile roles in the upcoming Superman reboot Man of Steel and director Quentin Tarantino's latest movie, Django Unchained.
Described as a "Southern" — blending together elements of the Western genre and exploitation movies — Django Unchained follows a freed slave (Jamie Foxx) who trains with a German bounty hunter (Christoph Waltz) in order to reclaim his wife from a plantation owner (Leonardo DiCaprio). Coster was reportedly playing a "vile and sadistic trainer of slaves," a departure from his usual roles.
But according to a Tweet from Variety writer Justin Kroll, Costner is no longer involved.

OpenSSH Server v5.1p1-6.maemo5
Votes: 30
Free & Open Source license
Secure shell server, an rshd replacement
This is the portable version of OpenSSH, a free implementation of the Secure Shell protocol as specified by the IETF secsh working group.
Ssh (Secure Shell) is a program for logging into a remote machine and for executing commands on a remote machine. It provides secure encrypted communications between two untrusted hosts over an insecure network. X11 connections and arbitrary TCP/IP ports can also be forwarded over the secure channel. It is intended as a replacement for rlogin, rsh and rcp, and can be used to provide applications with a secure communication channel.
This package provides the sshd server.
In some countries it may be illegal to use any encryption at all without a special permit.

Excellent, just like the client. Tha ability to copy files over Wi-Fi with this is just priceless. I'd pay money just to see any other phone do this. :-)
Great for debugging or for copying files without wires.
A must. Being able to SSH in from a desktop computer and using its full keyboard is vastly better than attemping to the N900's keyboard.
Probably one of the most useful app right now, you must have it
yeah i came here to try find out the default user and password. as id like to make sure i change this
It did not ask me to change password after installation.
No idea what the default username + password is!
perfect! use it to copy files from device to lap. i like this method more than USB

umm if you bothered to read my posts you'll find ive stated that several times in the last few weeks, except ive pointed out exactly where it started. This is incarnation #4 of Helmuldt Moltke's plan of 1850, which they first tried with the Franco Prussian war of 1870, then WW1, then WW2.

Yes I was agreeing with you. I made up that slogan to support your comments. Although you had stated your beliefs very clearly, you had not converted you views in a slogan. This tread is all about finding the best slogan to explain to the public the evil nature of the European Union.
This slogan was created to support the postings and comments of internetcynic
The EU is not a new threat, it is the rising of our old enemy Germany to threaten us once again
What are the long term effects of EU membership ?

In a word DISASTER
Three cheers for the leader of the Syriza Party in Greece.
He is refusing to work with anyone that supports the EU austerity plan.
This week I was talking to a teenage girl of 17. She is very angry about the fact that she is unemployed and could not find a job. She is also very angry about the high price of houses, and the high cost of renting rooms. This young girl is not interested in politics, and she does not understand that it is the EU that is to blame for all these problems.

Wikipedia:Link rot
This page is a how-to guide detailing a practice or process on the English Wikipedia.
This page in a nutshell: Link rot can kill poorly sourced citations, but steps may be taken to reduce its effect. |
Like most large websites, Wikipedia suffers from the phenomenon known as link rot, where external links, often used as references and citations, gradually become irrelevant or broken, as the linked websites disappear, change their content, or move. This presents a significant threat to Wikipedia's reliability policy and its source citation guideline.
The effort required to prevent link rot is significantly less than the effort required to repair or mitigate a rotten link. Therefore, prevention of link rot strengthens the encyclopedia. This guide provides strategies for preventing link rot before it happens. These include the use of web archiving services and the judicious use of citation templates.
However, link rot cannot always be prevented, so this guide also explains how to mitigate link rot by finding previously archived links and other sources. These strategies should be implemented in accordance with Wikipedia:Citing sources#Preventing and repairing dead links, which describes the steps to take when a link cannot be repaired.
Do not delete cited information solely because the URL to the source does not work any longer. WP:Verifiability does not require that all information be supported by a working link, nor does it require the source to be published online.
Except for URLs in the External links section that have not been used to support any article content, do not delete a URL solely because the URL does not work any longer. Recovery and repair options and tools are available.
Contents |
Preventing link rot[edit]
As you write articles, you can help prevent link rot in several ways. The first way to prevent link rot is to avoid bare URLs by recording as much of the exact title, author, publisher, date, and accessdate of the source as possible. If the link goes bad, this added information can help a future Wikipedian, either editor or reader, locate a new source for the original text, either online or a print copy. This likely wouldn't be possible with only an isolated, bare URL that no longer worked. Local and school libraries are a good resource for locating such offline sources. Many local libraries have in-house subscriptions to digital databases or inter-library loan agreements, making it easier to retrieve hard-to-find sources.
As you edit, if an article has bare URLs in its citations, fix them or at least tag the References section with {{linkrot}} as a reminder to complete citation details as above, and to categorize the article as needing cleanup.
Web archive services[edit]
A second way to prevent link-rot is to use a web archiving service. The two most popular services are the Wayback Machine, which passively archives many web pages, and WebCite, which provides on-demand web archiving. These services collect and preserve web pages for future use even if the original web page is moved, changed, deleted, or placed behind a pay wall. Web archiving is especially important when citing web pages that are unstable or prone to changes, like time sensitive news articles or pages hosted by financially distressed organizations. Once you have the URL for the archived version of the web page, use the archiveurl=
and archivedate=
parameters in the citation template that you are using. The template will automatically incorporate the archived link into reference.

- Dubner, Stephen J. (January 24, 2008). "Wall Street Journal Paywall Sturdier Than Suspected". The New York Times Company. Archived from the original on 2008-04-30.
However, not every web page can be archived. Webmasters and publishers may use a Robots exclusion standard in their domain to disallow archiving, or rely on complicated javascript, flash, or other code that can't easily be copied. In these cases, alternate methods of preserving the data may be available.
Alternative methods[edit]
Most citation templates have a quote=
parameter that can be used to store text quotes of the source material. This can be used to store a limited amount of text from the source within the citation template. This is especially useful for sources that cannot be archived with web archiving services. It can also provide insurance against failure of the chosen web archiving service.
- Dubner, Stephen J. (January 24, 2008). "Wall Street Journal Paywall Sturdier Than Suspected". The New York Times Company. Archived from the original on 2008-04-30. Retrieved 2009-10-28. "...the Wall Street Journal will not, as has been widely speculated, tear down its paywall entirely..."
When using the quote parameter, choose the most succinct and relevant material possible that preserves the context of the reference. Storing the entire text of the source is not appropriate under fair use policies, so choose only the most important portions of the text that most support the assertions in the Wikipedia article.
A quote also helps searching for other on-line versions of the source in the event that the original is discontinued.
Where applicable, public domain materials can be copied to Wikisource.
Repairing a dead link[edit]
There are several ways to repair a dead link.
Site search[edit]
Often web pages have simply moved, either in connection with a migration to a new server, or through general site maintenance. A site index or site-specific search feature is a useful place to locate the moved page.
Search engine[edit]
A search engine query using the title of the page, possibly with a search restriction to the same site, might also find the page. Using the examples from above, a web search (such as Google, Yahoo, etc.) might look like:
- site:http://freakonomics.blogs.nytimes.com/ "Wall Street Journal Paywall Sturdier Than Suspected"
Also, a search for some components of the dead link with punctuation removed is often fruitful; e.g. a search through Google for groups.csail.mit.edu sFFT paper pdf leads to a page enabling this fix. A search for an unusual or unique-looking substring of the URL, such as just the filename at the end, is often fruitful.
Internet archives[edit]
Check for archived versions of the page in the archiving services. If you find an archived version, double-check to make sure that the material still supports the citation. It is also a good idea to consult the access date of the citation (if it was specified) to see how contemporaneous this archived version is to the link when it was cited.
The following archiving services are considered to be reliable:
There are many Internet archive projects in existence. It is recommended that other services be used as secondary archive sources.
Service under evaluation Archive.is (http://archive.is) is a new (2012) on-demand+crawling archiving service with a very short track record.
- Checking if a dead URL has been archived: prepend "archive.is/" to the URL. Example: http://archive.is/http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Link_rot to check this page.
- On-demand: similar to WebCite. Saves full HTML+CSS, but strips Javascript. Saves full image of page as well.
- Crawler: This service crawls Wikipedia and archives offsite URLs. In many cases a now-deadlinked page may found at http://archive.is/
- Note: This service should not be used alone, as its track record is too short. Use it along with another archive service until community consensus agrees it is persistent, well-funded, and reliable.
Mitigating a dead link[edit]
At times, all attempts to repair the link will be unsuccessful. In that event, consider finding an alternate source so that the loss of the original does not harm the verifiability of the article. Alternate sources about broad topics are usually easily located. A simple search engine query might locate an appropriate alternative, but be extremely careful to avoid citing mirrors and forks of Wikipedia itself, which would violate Wikipedia:Verifiability.
Sometimes, finding an appropriate source is not possible, or would require more extensive research techniques, such as a visit to a library or the use of a subscription-based database. If that is the case, consider consulting with Wikipedia editors at Wikipedia:WikiProject Resource Exchange, the Wikipedia:Village pump, or Wikipedia:Help desk. Also, consider contacting experts or other interested editors at a relevant WikiProject.
Keeping dead links[edit]
A dead, unarchived source URL may still be useful. Such a link indicates that information was (probably) verifiable in the past, and the link might provide another user with greater resources or expertise with enough information to find the reference. It could also return from the dead. With a dead link, it is possible to determine if it has been cited elsewhere, or to contact the person originally responsible for the source. For example, one could contact the Yale Computer Science department if http://www.cs.yale.edu/~EliYale/Defense-in-Depth-PhD-thesis.pdf[dead link] were dead. Place {{dead link}} after the dead URL and just before the </ref>
tag if applicable, leaving the original link intact. Placing {{dead link}} auto-categorizes the article into Articles with dead external links project category, and into specific monthly date range category based on |date=
parameter. Do not delete a URL just because it has been tagged with {{dead link}} for a long time.

DT25 head will not start up
Like (0)
I have a DT25 head, which worked fine the other day, after upgrading to the 2.0 update. I turned it on today and it doesn't work. The power light comes on, the panel is lit, however no switches change their settings e.g. topology, channel A/B, class A/AB.
I have tried restarting the amp and pinching the class A and topology settings. This resets the amp, I believe, I hear some physical clicking inside the amp, but the swithcing does not work on the front.
This problem occurs whether plugged directly into the amp or via L6 link fomr my HD500.
Any thoughts? I have a gig soon!
Perhaps the flash did not complete successfully...Have you tried to flash the amp again?
I haven't tried that yet. I will give it a go.
What is odd is that I have used it since the update. I'll let you know how I get on.
Reinstalled current firmware, it worked a treat! Thanks!
Stay in the mix and in the know.

Went there the other day and haven't got a reservation, the bar was empty but the girl at reception said in such a rude way they are too full to give us a table. Anyway, after pointless flipping through the clearly empty looking reservation list she gave us a table (thanks for your generosity) You nearly have to hit the staff with a chair to get their attention, the cocktails are poor and not worth the money. I liked the nibbles although its not that difficult to make them anyway. The attitude and rudeness of the staff is a total turn off.
Simon Thu Apr 25Rated as: 1/5 -
Staff were unacceptably rude and snooty. A real shame as otherwise, it's a great bar with imaginative cocktails. Won't be going back in a hurry.
Hannah Tue Apr 2Rated as: 1/5 -
Forget to mention the actual drinks, probably because they were forgettable. Very very average cocktails.
JT Thu Mar 21 -
This place used to be good for cocktails and table service. Last time I went service was awful. Zero out of ten for service. Rude, inattentive staff. I had to chase the waiters and waitresses to get drinks three to four times. It would have been easier to mix the drinks at my table. This is a place where you go when you're not in the mood to queue at a bar yet most of my time was spent looking out for waiters and chasing them to order or pay. Will never go back. Plenty more decent cocktail bars in the area.
JT Thu Mar 21Rated as: 1/5 -
Delicious cocktails but very bad service from a tall waiter. My friends have all agreed that they are not going back there again.

Went here for a friend's 30th birthday earlier this year. The cocktails were OK, not great, mainly a glass of ice. But the bad service and the rudeness of the staff (mainly the pretentious guy "in charge"), was particularly noticeable - when we asked if we could have some unused chairs shuffled across to our group of >20, they thought we were mad (the ensuing devastation of the décor wouldn't look right, I guessed), and that set the mood of the staff/manager from then on. I don't see how they think they can get away with that sort of customer service (or non-service) in this current climate. Owners/investors should take note.
JGav Wed Nov 14 2012Rated as: 1/5 -
Liked the interior however single worst Manhattan I have ever drank. Waitresses were also slow and unfriendly and unhelpful and almost impossible to catch their attention. For how awful the drink was alone I won't go back.
Devon Sat Oct 13 2012Rated as: 1/5 -
Very poor service, waiters are rude and the overall attitude that they have is that they don't care if you have a good time or not. Really disappointed, will never return.

Competition: XML for Mini-Browser in VoIP Phones
Snom is calling for developers to submit inventive XML applications for the mini-browser in its Linux-based VoIP phones. Contributions will be published under the BSD license.
All XML programmers above the age of 18 are invited to submit code for XML applications for Snom's Business or Lifestyle divisions by 6 pm, October 22. Entrants are allowed to submit more than one program. The XML applications must be designed for the mini browser that runs on all Snom phones with firmware version 7.1.17 or newer.
The conditions for entry are that the entries must be submitted under the FreeBSD license. Contributions that use a scripting language must include a link to an online demonstration. The winner can look forward to trade fair presentations and telco devices, and the top five in the Business and Lifestyle categories will receive telco devices from various sponsors.
Examples of business applications include calculators, currency converters or dictionaries. Lifestyle applications include, for example, a short message system, a phone charge display, and home automation technology implemented in XML for opening house or garage doors. The organizers are looking for originality, or as the contest Wiki puts it: "we say it's time to stop these booring (sic) attempts to use a great tool."
According to the documentation, all the phones currently offer is an XML-controlled phonebook, and XML libraries for PHP. The mini browser is designed for accessing server-side http/https services, such as weather services, to-do-lists and share prices via the phone's keypad. The browser handles specific XML objects, such as defined quantities of letter or number fields, whose content it passes in to a URL as a server process parameter.
Besides binary files of its firmware, Snom also offers the GPL source code in the form of a construction kit that includes a patched Linux kernel, drivers and tools for generating ROM images.

Fatty Liar Caroline
I began a random game of Words With Friends under the guise that all the words must be encompassed in a short story, in the order they were played. My opponent was named "To good 4 u pplz", which is interesting since I beat her by 80 points (144 to 64, before she resigned) and her name is both obnoxious and grammatically incorrect. Mid-game, she changed her name to "GucciGirlie", which isn't much better, but it's still a clear sign that whoever she is, she's easy to beat. So start a game with her and feel good about yourself! Yay!
All the words used in the game are in bold.
Caroline the Fatty
Caroline was a fatty. She was so fat that whenever she took a step, she put a hole in the floor, even steel floors. She was also a liar, since she told everyone she only weighed 120 lbs, when she clearly weighed at least 280.
One day, Caroline decided to discover religion. She visited a few wats*, which were oddly located in Oklahoma, and asked Buddha to help her lose weight. She stomped through the floorboards of one particular wat and knelt at the feet of a bronze Buddha statue.
"Let's make a deal, Buddha," she said. "You make me thin, and I'll sell all my fat to charity."

I have surfed for quite a few years, and have owned many different boards. I don't pull off any tricks and just enjoy a nice long ride in the pocket, but I don't like lugging a longer board around either. I'm looking for something that'll have some of the float of my egg(42L) but doesn't have to be a super carver. Is the SP something that might work for me in a "longer" size, like 5'6"? I'm 5'7", 155lbs and an intermediate surfer. I've just come to the realization that I'll never make the ASP tour and just want to catch more waves and enjoy the ride.
Thanks for the comments.

Essential Tools & Tips for Successful Web Searching (online learning course)
(An Infopeople Online Learning Course)
August 26, 2008 - September 22, 2008
"Google it" is the way a lot of people find information. Often, we (and our users) "ask Google" and are amazed how often it works. But sometimes we get too much. Or, even when we know the answer is on the web, we cannot construct a search that pulls out just what we need. We get millions of search results and wonder "What next?" We lack a search strategy for navigating the billions of web pages and other stuff that's out there.
- What goes on in search engines? How do they "think" about searching?
- What are today's best search engines after Google? Why are they the best?

Inside Holiday celebrations, services • Grafton minutes 35 cents The HimtleY Farmside Thursday, December 17,1998 A Press Publications newspaper im^ serving tlie Huntley community Volume 38 Issue 36 Hemmer's death is viewed as an 'end of an era' Steve Brosinski Press Publications When most people die, few remember what they accom¬ plished and even fewer ever know what impact they might have had on the world in which they lived. And then there is someone like the late Joseph G. Hemmer, whose family traces its roots to Huntley's earliest days. Hemmer died Dec. 12 in Elgin's Rosewood Care Center, just three days shy of his 90th birthday. Scores of friends and family members packed the American Legion Hall on Saturday after attending a mass at St. Mary Catholic Church, the Hemmer family's home church. Among many qualities, Patricia Hemmer-Braddock remembers her father as a man who was devoted to his family. "My brothers and I were rem¬ iniscing how dad had a fantastic sense of humor, and how he never had a credit card and paid everything in cash," Braddock said. "I'm going to miss him. We had so many good memories. He is the end of an era." Up until Hemmer moved into Rosewood from Sherman Hospital, he and his wife, Margaret, were inseparable. "She visited him everyday while he was in the (Sherman) hospital," Braddock said. see Hemmer—page 2 Photo by Steve Brosinski Making memories Park District Recreation Director Betsey Warrington (top left) sings carols with members of the Crusader Choir of the First Congregational Church during Saturday's Remembrance Tree Ceremony at the Deicke Recreation Center. Residents chose 158 "special people " to have their names placed on the tree. "We do this every year and keep the ornaments, " Warrington said. After the ceremony, Santa visited chil¬ dren outside the center. Prime Automotive Group makes push for car dealership tax rebate Steve Brosinski Press Publications Prime Automotive Group is seeking a multimillion dollar sales tax rebate to help defray the costs of relocating three Prime-owned dealerships to the Huntley Automall. On Thursday, the Huntley Village Board plans to discuss Prime's request for sales tax rebates of up to $1.25 million each for the three dealerships. The company intends on relo¬ cating the dealerships to the 51-acre automall on Route 47, west of the Prime Outlet Mall. Prime Automotive, a sub¬ sidiary of Prime Inc., is buy¬ ing the assets of Huntley's King Chevrolet, Lesser Pontiac Buick in Woodstock and Sawyer Mercedes Volvo in DeKalb. If the village approves the rebate request. Prime could be reimbursed up to $3.75 mil¬ lion. The proposal was pre¬ sented at the board's Committee of the Whole meeting last Thursday. "We would use that as an incentive to get the dealer¬ ships to move here," Prime Vice President Phillip Waters said. "Because of the limited demographics, there is resis¬ tance to move." Prime wants a deal similar to what the village struck with Tom Peck Ford in 1997. Tom Peck Ford will get back 25 percent of the sales tax gener¬ ated in five years. Peck's agreement will be extended another five years if gross sales reach $35 million. The see Rebate—page 2 Sherman seeks to open facility near Sun City Steve Brosinski Press Publications St. Joseph's Hospital may have appeared to have been the front-runner in the race to open a medical facility near Del Webb's Sun City, but Sherman Health Systems beat them to the finish line. Elgin-based Sherman plans to build a 25,000-square-foot medical care campus that will offer immediate medical care and a host of diagnostic ser¬ vices. Sherman has agreed to buy 15 acres in the Prime Group's 43-acre Huntley Corporate Park, south of Sun City. The facility will be open to all resi¬ dents of Huntley. Construction of the first phase should begin in spring, 1999 and be completed within two years. This would be the second medical facility planned near Sun City. Brookdale Living Community will be building a 300,000-square-foot intergener¬ ational assisted-care center on eight acres in the Corporate Park. Phillip Waters, Prime's vice president of marketing, said see Sherman—^page 2
