Daly City Tears Down Homeowner's Addition - room added in 1973(insane...)
KRON California

Daly City Tears Down Homeowner's Addition
After 30 Years, City Tears Down Man's Home Addition DALY CITY (KRON) -- It was heart breaking for Efrim Bastarrachea to lose his battle with city hall and 700 square feet of his home. Before workers arrived Monday Morning he moved everyone out so they would not have to watch and listen to the destruction of the room he built by hand on the back of his home in 1973 - a space that served as family room, play room, and study room for his college-bound daughters.
It was "part of my house for 30 years," said Bastarrachea. "All the young children grew up over there, the city knew, we tried to have permits, we complied with them, they asked us to apply for a variance - the engineering department - and they denied it, they say they can't help us - the only way (is to) reduce the room."
The room didn't fully meet Daily City's Building Code... more
Note: Each "forum" in the new and improved Free Republic has two search functions accessible from the "Latest Posts" (i.e. http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/browse for the News/Activism "Latest Posts") page. One is a "Search" link from the top right hand corner, and the other is the main "Search Words" box at the top of the left hand column of threads. For some goofy technical reason, however, John Robinson has not - yet! - enabled EITHER of these two "search FR" functions to search across ALL of the "forums," so that at present you need to search in EACH ONE of the five forums "My Forums" page:
search for "Daly" in News/Activism - bingo!
but
search for "Daly" in General Interest - where you probably looked
search for "Daly" in Campaign 2002 - nada
search for "Daly" in Religion - nada
search for "Daly" in VetsCoR - nada
I hope that this helps! :)

The multiple forums really were meant to be independent of each other. With the exception of self-searches, I didn't build the database to accommodate cross-forum activity.
Technically this is because some forums may be (and are) completely private (like the FAB forum and the Moderator forum) and eventually each will have its own moderators and its own ban lists, etc. Determining what to return as a search result and what not to return based on what can be seen by the searching user can be a complex issue. The straightforward way (of doing an SQL join) would cause significant delays in data flow due to read locking of tables. (Unless I'm doing something wrong with MySQL!)
The policy I designed into the code is that each forum is independent. The justification for the several independent forums on FR is that the material on those forums (with the exception of News/Activism) would not and/or should not have been allowed to be posted (or rather, would have been pulled.) (The amount of leeway given to content had increased over the years, or so many say. However, a strict interpretation of Free Republic's mission would have most of the stuff previously posted on the old format pulled. Instead of that, it now has a General Interest forum.)
Now, I am considering the ability to search all /public/ forums as it should be trivial to maintain an "is_public" flag on the search index. Though that may confuse people who expect to see results from all forums they can access. If it is technically possible (that is, if it doesn't significantly increase the query time), I will make it search all accessible forums. This function will be separate and removed from the quick search bar... it would probably be found under an advanced page.
To: John Robinson
I shouldn't say "most of the stuff", that's wrong. "A lot of the stuff" is more correct.
To: John Robinson
Thanks for the update, John!
I understand. (I think!)
BTW,
thank you for EVERYTHING that you do!
(And, congratulations to the entire FR team for getting the $1,000,000 judgment dropped to $10,000!)
