State Senator Wants Cockfights, with Gloves
OKLAHOMA CITY (Reuters) - An Oklahoma senator hopes to revive cockfighting in the state by putting tiny boxing gloves on the roosters instead of razors.
The Oklahoma legislature outlawed the blood sport in 2002 because of its cruelty to the roosters, which are slashed and pecked to death while human spectators bet on the outcome. But State Sen. Frank Shurden, a Democrat from Henryetta and a long-time defender of cockfighting, said the ban had wiped out a $100-million business.
To try to revive it, he has proposed that roosters wear little boxing gloves attached to their spurs, as well as lightweight, chicken-sized vests configured with electronic sensors to record hits and help keep score.
"It's like the fencing that you see on the Olympics, you know, where they have little balls on the ends of the swords and the fencers wear vests," said Shurden. "That's the same application that would be applied to the roosters."

vectorworks or MiniCAD sought
Dear Lazyweb,
I've got a bunch of MiniCAD files that our architect gave us years ago that I've never been able to read. (In fact, I don't even know what's in them.) Jonathan tried the free "Vectorworks Viewer" on them, and it can't open them because they're too old... (apparently the viewer can't open files created earlier than version 9, though the full version of Vectorworks can.)
If you have access to something that can read these, please convert them to DXF for me!
Update: Mission accomplished. Thank you, Lazyweb. You're the best Lazyweb ever.

Police in Germany are hunting pranksters who have been sticking miniature US flags into piles of dog poo in public parks.
Josef Oettl, parks administrator for Bayreuth, said: "This has been going on for about a year now, and there must be 2,000 to 3,000 piles of excrement that have been claimed during that time."
"We have sent out extra patrols to try to catch whoever is doing this in the act," said police spokesman Reiner Kuechler. "But frankly, we don't know what we would do if we caught them red handed."
Legal experts say there is no law against using faeces as a flag stand and the federal constitution is vague on the issue.

sendmail help needed
Dear Lazyweb, please be my sendmail bitch.
I have an OpenBSD 3.5 machine ("membrane") running sendmail 8.12.11. I want all mail originating on that machine to be delivered to my mail host ("nucleus"), instead of being delivered locally. I can't figure out any way to make this happen; no matter what I try, mail to root still gets delivered into the local /var/mail/ without ever making an attempt to contact the mail host.
<LJ-CUT text=" --More--(11%) ">
Setting SMART_HOST has worked on every Linux machine I've used in the last decade, so I don't see why it won't work here.
(This machine sends almost no mail -- just the occasional cron job -- so I don't want to hear any crap about how great something-other-than-sendmail is. Don't make me ban you.)
So, in /etc/mail/aliases, I have:
root: jwz
jwz: jwz@nucleus.dnalounge.com
/etc/rc.conf says:
- sendmail_flags="-L sm-mta -C/etc/mail/localhost.cf -bd -q30m"
In /usr/share/sendmail/cf/openbsd-localhost.mc I have:
- define(`SMART_HOST',`nucleus.dnalounge.com')
which means that /usr/share/sendmail/cf/openbsd-localhost.cf, /etc/mail/localhost.cf, and /etc/mail/sendmail.cf all say:
- DSnucleus.dnalounge.com
I also tried adding "DHnucleus" to the .cf files. No luck.
There is nothing in /etc/mail/local-host-names.
(Yes, I have newaliased, HUPped, and even rebooted.)
Oddly, doing "Mail jwz@dnalounge.com" produces a bounce from localhost that says
- MX list for dnalounge.com. points back to membrane.dnalounge.com
which is just not true!
% dig dnalounge.com mx | grep MX
;dnalounge.com. IN MX
dnalounge.com. 3600 IN MX 5 nucleus.dnalounge.com.
(Note, that's "internal" DNS, you will see different results if you run that from where you are sitting right now.)
When I do this:

Note complete lack of any mention of nucleus. (I get the same result if I mail to "jwz@nucleus.dnalounge.com" instead of just "jwz".)
According to "host", membrane does realize that membrane and nucleus have different IP addresses.
Any ideas?
Update: Fixed! The answer is, put FEATURE(`msp', `nucleus.dnalounge.com') in submit.mc, and don't screw around with "smart_host" or "nullclient" at all. Thanks a lot to all those who helped.

At last! Unlike the last attempt I heard of, this one actually uses a rotary dial! However, they say that incoming calls don't ring, and the sound quality is not as good as it should be. But a fine hack nonetheless.
