I'm trying this tomorrow...

A couple folks have posted their NetNewsWire style sheets. Ollie of ollicle.com posted one; Steven Canfield of Aquasition.Net posted another.

Update: another style sheet comes from Gummi at meettheg.com. A fourth style sheet comes from Dave Walker at freeform goodness. [inessential.com]

I have a wireless access point and firewall combo that protects my meager home network from the Internet. Yesterday, I disabled the wireless interface (since I wasn't using it) and all seemed well.

My caution was rewarded with inconvenience. Even though the firewall settings displayed no changes, port translation was affected. Since the disabling the wireless connection was the only difference, I heeded my little voice and turned it back on. I changed the port number for the source, saved the settings and retried. All was well. I changed it back on a hunch; still working.

Just to make sure, disabled the wireless interface, again changed the port numbers for the translation--no workie. I had the wrong firmware installed on my firewall--Rev B vs. Rev A. Downloaded new firmware, installed, reset, all fixed.

Update:  I'm reposting this from work to make sure all is fine remotely. --Now twice--

I received two donations yesterday. One was from Ingrid and one from a friend a business advisor, Juliet Mee. This gets me to an important milestone: $200. This gives me enough money to pay for the gas round trip (25 MPG, 1400 miles, 15 gallon tank, $1.80/gallon) and maybe some snacks along the way.

I also received word from Wendy that my request for a press pass was approved, pending confirmation of my press credentials. A quick phone call to the Springfield Business Journal and we're all set. Wendy, Clarissa's out of the office until late next week. They want to have her sign off on the whole deal before I send you anything. I'll call you if something changes.

I'll write more later. I'm headed back to the house to fiddle with the firewall. By the way, Jake's right: Mozilla Firebird rocks. If Safari didn't exist, I'd use Firebird instead. On my Windows laptop at work, I have it installed and it's fast-fast-fast for rendering pages.
