Jag har ett trådlöst nätverkskort (USB) som heter TP-Link TL-WL821N. jag har använt det ett bra tag och det har funkat bra men efter att jag har installerat om Windows så funkar det plötsligt inte ihop med datorn. Jag har testat det i en annan dator så det är inget fel på det.

Normalt så brukar det installera sig själv när man sätter in det i datorn men det gör det inte nu. Inte heller funkar det när jag installerar det med medföljande skiva eller med drivrutiner hämtade från tillverkarens hemsida.

Jag har försökt flera gånger att installera och avinstallera. Har även försökt uppdatera drivrutinerna via Enhetshanteraren.

Oavsett vad jag gör så hittar inte adaptern några nätverk alls.

Jag använder Windows 7 och använde samma OS på den andra datorn där jag testade nätverkskortet.

Vad kan det vara som krånglar?

Olivia Palermo Is the Latest to Embrace This Supermodel Street Style Trend
» ‎ Vogue

Tags: [edit]

It’s been hard to escape the over-the-knee boot this season. What started as a supermodel street style phenomenon, worn by the likes of Kendall Jenner, Bella Hadid, and Gigi Hadid, is arguably the biggest footwear trend of fall. And last night in New York City, Olivia Palermo showed the world how she likes to style the leggy look.

Palermo typically keeps things sophisticated and ladylike, often favoring jumpsuits and ribbed knit separates. But lately she’s been injecting a little more edge into her wardrobe, and the skin-tight, slightly kinky over-the-knee boots from Jimmy Choo that she wore yesterday are a good example. That said, the rest of her ensemble was in keeping with her more covered-up aesthetic; indeed, the little dress Dior vest dress, Chelsea 28 lace turtleneck, and Miriam Haskell statement earrings offset her dominatrix-style heels with an elegant femininity.

Los Angeles Residents Sue Chipotle Because Their Burritos Contained More Than 300 Calories
» ‎ Stories from Slate

Tags: [edit]

Three Chipotle customers in Los Angeles are filing a class-action lawsuit against the Mexican fast-casual chain for misrepresenting the amount of calories in its new chorizo burrito. An in-store sign advertising the new spicy sausage filling showed a picture of a chorizo burrito and a calorie count of 300. In fact, the chorizo alone contains 300 calories. Once you add a tortilla, white rice, black beans, tomato salsa, and cheese, as the sign suggests, you get a meal that clocks in at around 1,050 calories, according to Chipotle’s online nutrition calculator.

Three separate California customers felt not just misled by the sign but also wronged by it. One of them bought a chorizo burrito because of the sign, but afterward “felt excessively full and realized that the burrito couldn’t have been just 300 calories,” according to the complaint reviewed by My News L.A. Even though the chorizo filling has been available only since October, the class-action lawsuit would cover “all people who bought food at Chipotle for four years leading up to the filing of the complaint,” because the plaintiffs claim the chorizo signs fall into a pattern of misleading nutritional information promulgated by Chipotle.

I hope the plaintiffs have more evidence behind that claim, because it’s easy to see how Chipotle’s misleading chorizo signs might have resulted from human error rather than malice. Perhaps more relevant to the damages sought by the plaintiffs, it is hard to see how eating 1,050 calories when you believe you’re eating 300 calories does any lasting harm to a person, absent some medical condition that requires strict control of one’s caloric intake. You know what you can do when you’ve accidentally eaten too much? Not eat for a while. Maybe take a walk or do some gentle stretching to promote digestion. Believe it or not, within a few hours you won’t feel “excessively full” anymore, and a few hours after that you’ll even be ready to eat some more. The miracle of the human metabolism!

Better yet, stop paying attention to calorie counts at all and just pay attention to your body’s hunger and satiety signals. It can feel really hard to listen to your body when you are used to mistrusting it—take it from someone who used to count calories obsessively and binge eat—but with practice and self-forgiveness, it becomes easy and enjoyable. When you obey internal rather than external cues, you begin to notice how different foods affect you, and as a result you make better choices according to what your body needs at a given moment. If you’re extremely hungry, you might eat a whole chorizo burrito; if you’re less hungry, you might eat half a burrito, or opt for a bowl instead, or go to Hale and Hearty Soups instead of Chipotle. When you’re used to eating when you’re hungry and stopping when you’re full, the prospect of getting a calorie count wrong feels almost unbearably trivial.

Consumers deserve accurate information about the products they’re considering, and many companies deserve to be sanctioned for misrepresenting the ingredients and nutritional value of the foods they sell. But a single misleading sign does not a fraud make. Call me crazy, but if I saw a sign implying that a Chipotle burrito contained fewer calories than it actually did, my first and only reaction would be to tell the manager, “That sign’s wrong. You should probably change it.”

Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance said Thursday that he wants Apple's encryption to go back to how it was in early 2014. Back then, police could basically extract any information they wanted after getting a warrant.

"Doing nothing about this problem will perpetuate an untenable arms race between private industry and law enforcement," Vance said on Thursday. "Federal legislation is our only chance to lay these arms aside."

Vance said he's got 423 "lawfully-seized Apple devices" that his employees can't do anything with. Forty-two of those devices "pertain to homicide or attempted murder cases" according to the district attorney's office, and a similar number "relate to sex crimes." Read more...

Donald Trump is paying $21 million to students he allegedly defrauded at his fake university
» ‎ Vox - All

Tags: [edit]

Donald Trump is settling all three fraud lawsuits against Trump University for a total of $25 million, ending a long legal battle against former students who said his real estate seminar business cheated them out of thousands of dollars.

Trump brags that he doesn’t settle lawsuits. But the three lawsuits against Trump University — two class-action suits in California and an attorney general–generated lawsuit in New York — threatened to follow him to the White House. One of the class-action suits was set to go to trial November 28, and Trump’s lawyers had initially said he planned to attend it even though he’s preparing for his inauguration in January.

Trump didn’t admit liability, according to the Los Angeles Times, although the $25 million he will pay includes $1 million in penalties to the state of New York and $21 million to former students.

The settlement, though, means that Trump will avoid the bizarre spectacle of serving as president-elect or even president while also facing a lawsuit for alleged fraud and racketeering — as well as the political fallout from any potential loss in court.
The two class-action lawsuits said Trump University was a fraud
The basic charge at the heart of two class-action lawsuits against Trump — Cohen v. Trump and Low v. Trump — is that Trump’s "university," a series of get-rich-quick investment seminars, was a fraud.

The presiding judge for both suits was Gonzalo Curiel, whom Trump famously insulted during the campaign by saying that his Mexican heritage should disqualify him from the cases because Trump wanted to build a wall on the Mexican border.

Documents disclosed in the suits revealed clearly that Trump University had two goals: to identify prospects with the money to spend on Trump's seminars, and to get them to spend as much of it as possible.

The first seminar was free. The second, which was three days long, cost $1,500. The crown jewel was the year-long partnership with an adviser hand-picked by Donald Trump, an experience that cost $35,000. Even after they paid tens of thousands of dollars, students would be pushed to buy even more products. Recruiters were trained in the art of the high-pressure scam and were told to toy with their prospects' emotions and urge them to run up their credit cards.

Then Trump University didn't deliver on its promises. "To my knowledge, not a single consumer who paid for a Trump University seminar program went on to successfully invest in real estate based upon the techniques that were taught," Ronald Schnackenberg, a former sales manager for Trump University, said in a deposition.

Cohen v. Trump makes essentially the same claims as Low v. Trump, but on behalf of anyone who purchased Trump University classes after January 1, 2007. Because it was brought under federal racketeering laws, it had the potential to be even more expensive by requiring Trump University to pay damages.

Cohen v. Trump also could have forced Trump to reveal one of his most closely guarded secrets: his net worth. In July 2015, Curiel ruled that Trump would have had to talk about how much he’s actually worth under penalty of perjury and respond to questions about how much money he'd put into, or made in profit from, Trump University.

The settlement means that information will stay secret. And the plaintiffs in the lawsuits will get $21 million in damages.
New York v. the Trump Entrepreneur Initiative: New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman also took on Trump
The other suit settled Friday was brought by New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman, known for his pursuit of high-profile cases. People of the State of New York v. the Trump Entrepreneur Initiative, accused Trump University and Trump himself of fraud, deceptive practices, false advertising, violating state rules for educational institutions, operating an unlicensed school, and disregarding buyers' rights to cancel a transaction.

A trial court initially ruled that Schneiderman was filing his suit against Trump too late, throwing out most of the charges against him. But in March, a state appeals court decided the statute of limitation hadn't passed and that it could include evidence from up to six years ago about Trump University's deceptive practices.

Before the settlement, the lawsuit was being appealed to the state's highest court, with a hearing scheduled for December. Schneiderman had initially sought millions of dollars in penalties, but the settlement means Trump will pay only $1 million.

Settling is a rare move for Trump, who usually prefers to carry out a grinding legal battle. But he apparently thought $25 million was a fair price to make a problem that could cast a shadow over the beginning of his presidency go away.

Hyperloop One settles nasty lawsuit with co-founder
» ‎ The Verge - All Posts

Tags: [edit]

Hyperloop One, the well-funded, slightly dysfunctional, futuristic transportation startup announced that it has settled a lawsuit brought by four former employees, including co-founder and chief technology officer Brogan BamBrogan, for an undisclosed sum of money.

In an email sent to employees earlier Friday, Hyperloop One CEO Rob Lloyd said he was “pleased” to announce the settlement of the suit, which stunned many when it dropped weeks after the company’s first public test. “Lawsuits can be distracting for companies; they often halt momentum until they can be resolved,” Lloyd said in his memo to staff. “That didn’t happen here.”
“Lawsuits can be distracting for companies.”
Indeed, the company recently announced its ambitious plans to build a passenger-ready hyperloop in the United Arab Emirates, releasing a fantastical vision for travel between Dubai and Abu Dhabi in 12 minutes. But while the lawsuit may not have distracted the company’s employees, it certainly overshadowed much of the company’s work since its test in the desert outside Las Vegas last May. The sordid saga was covered in length by Wired, New York Magazine, and other outlets.

The drama started when BamBrogan was ousted for reasons unknown just weeks after the desert test. Those reasons became clear in a lawsuit filed by BamBrogan and three other employees in July, alleging financial misconduct, abuse, and physical threats by several of the company’s top executives. He accused Lloyd, co-founder Shervin Pishevar, and Pishevar’s brother Afshin, of using Hyperloop One "to augment their personal brands, enhance their romantic lives, and line their pockets (and those of their family members)," according to the complaint.
“We are planning to build rad shit with rad people.”
In one of the more memorable allegations, BamBrogan said Afshin Pishevar left a hangman’s noose at his desk as a threat. Pishevar said the rope was meant to symbolize a cowboy’s lasso, referencing BamBrogan’s outlaw attitude. The company’s executives countersued BamBrogan, accusing him of conducting secret meetings in his garage to plot a takeover of the company. Both complaints are now settled under the confidential resolution, a spokesperson said.

“We are planning to build rad shit with rad people, starting with our take on hyperloop,” BamBrogan said in a statement from his lawyer. “More to come in the near future.”

With the lawsuit now behind them, Hyperloop One can focus on preparing for its first full system test of its ultrafast transportation system, which they’ve promised will be held in the first quarter of 2017.

This recyclable paper bike helmet just won a prestigious design award
» ‎ Tech

Tags: [edit]

Many cities around the world — from New York City to Buenos Aires — are investing more in bike share systems as a form of public transportation. But the bikes don't come with helmets, so riders must either bring their own — which can be cumbersome to carry around — or go without.

A new invention, called the EcoHelmet, may offer a solution. Made of paper, the device is collapsible, and is designed with bike share programs in mind.

On November 17, inventor Isis Shiffer won the 2016 International James Dyson Award, a prestigious design accolade given to university students, for the helmet design. Shiffer imagines the helmets could be sold in vending machines near bike share stations for $5 each.

The UK-based award comes with a £30,000 prize ($31,800), which Shiffer plans to use to produce more of the helmets.

A 28-year-old New Yorker, Shiffer told the BBC that she realized a paper helmet would be "a tough sell," since the material doesn't seem strong enough to protect you in an accident. But the EcoHelmet has a radial honeycomb design similar to that of foldable decorations, which Shiffer says makes it as solid as a traditional polycarbonate plastic helmet. So far, she told CNN, it's been reliable at absorbing impact in the tests she's done so far.

The helmet also has a biodegradable coating that makes it resistant to light rain for up to three hours, and it's recyclable, so used helmets could potentially be turned into new ones.

Shiffer has said she hopes to conduct more research to make the EcoHelmet stronger, more more water-resistant, and ready for mass production. There's no timeline yet, however, on when and where the EcoHelmet will be available.

Here's a video that shows how it works:

7 Big-Screen Bathing Moments in GIFs—Plus the Tub Essentials to Set the Scene
» ‎ Vogue

Tags: [edit]

Hollywood loves a bathtub, and so do I. There’s something about sliding into a frothy tub, the weight of the world slipping away, that makes you want to crank up the Walkman and do your best version of Prince’s “Kiss,” like Julia Roberts in Pretty Woman. A canister of Morton’s table salt is enough for Daryl Hannah’s mermaid in Splash to regain her sense of self, along with her unfurled fins. And as the inimitable Brigitte Bardot proves in Contempt, maybe all a cinephile needs is a book on director Fritz Lang and a few thick coats of waterproof mascara.

These days, with impending winter (meteorological and metaphorical), a long, hot soak is as close to an everyday cure-all as we can hope for. It’s a chance to rebalance the body (via, say, the French gray sea salt, wild-harvested seaweed, and spirulina in Pursoma’s Minerals De Mer); to steep in a vat of rose-perfumed water (think: the petal-strewn fantasy bath in American Beauty); or to plot a shift in power, as Al Pacino’s Cuban drug dealer does in a bubble-filled Jacuzzi, cigar in hand (leave it to Cire Trudon’s tobacco-scented matches to conjure the scene).

And so there is no better time to comb through the film canon for some bathing inspiration, including one cheeky moment of censorship from Buster Keaton’s 1920 comedy, One Week. With each GIF, we’ve paired our favorite bath products—from moody black soap and eye coal worthy of Margot Tenenbaum to Chanel bubbles and a sumptuous hair mask fit for a Prince-singing princess at the Beverly Wilshire hotel.

Debra Messing and Susan Sarandon Are Still Fighting About Donald Trump
» ‎ Stories from Slate

Tags: [edit]

Debra Messing and Susan Sarandon, auburn-haired celebri-frenemies of the progressive agenda, are having a Twitter spat again. Earlier this week, Jill Stein supporter (and former Berner) Sarandon encouraged her followers to “reach out in dialogue” to people who voted for Trump. “We can't afford a blanket judgement of them,” she tweeted in response to a Twitter user’s caution against “normalizing” the president-elect. “We need allies in that camp. Possible.”

Messing and others wondered why Sarandon was so quick to suggest mending fences with people who don’t consider outspoken racism a dealbreaker for a potential president. Just a few months ago, during the primary, Sarandon suggested that a Donald Trump presidency might be better than a Hillary Clinton one, because Trump would be so bad he’d “bring the revolution immediately” so that “things will really explode.”

Well, it’s been a week since Trump’s election, and the revolution has not, to my knowledge, been brought. Instead, Trump has appointed an anti-Semitic white nationalist as his chief strategist, named a nemesis of civil rights his attorney general, and resumed discussion of making all Muslims join a national registry. Sarandon, a wealthy white celebrity under no immediate threat by Trump’s failure to be ousted by some hypothetical revolutionary brigade, apparently believes this state we’re in is preferable to the competency and incremental progress a Clinton administration would have meant. Messing, however, doesn’t agree that people who voted for Trump are ready to heed the inclusive call to leftist activism.

The Messing-Sarandon feud began in March, after Sarandon posited that a Trump administration could be a great precursor to a Bernie revolution. “Wonder if she'd say that if she were poor,gay,Muslim or immgrnt,” Messing tweeted. Sarandon clarified that she wasn’t saying she’d vote for Trump, just that “passionate, principled independents & first-time voters” who loved Sanders would have a lot to consider if left with the choice between Clinton and Trump. Messing reiterated that neither Clinton nor Sanders had proposed banning, deporting, and terrorizing innocent American residents, while Trump had, and that major difference should not be ignored. Sarandon said something about polls and shrugged.

Now, the Stepmom star is going through Messing’s timeline, retweeting her posts and adding a line about Dakota Access Pipeline resistance to each one.

She’s also telling anyone who criticizes her hardline Trump-is-better-than-Hillary stance to #amplify news from Standing Rock.

Both of these Twitter activists deserve credit for their unwavering convictions. Messing, who’s clearly got an unsteady hand on the touch screen, is keeping her fellow famous person on her toes, even as her barely comprehensible tweets undermine any image of coolness and collectedness she’d cultivated. And Sarandon isn’t backing down from her belief that Trump’s election has triggered a quiet progressive revolution (made up of people who, it seems, didn’t vote?) ready to guide an America that just elected a fascist xenophobe into a peaceful socialist democracy. We’re ready when you are, Susan!

Lyssna: Kommer behöva betala ersättning till studenterna
USA:s blivande president Donald Trump har gått med på att betala 25 miljoner dollar, motsvarande omkring 230 miljoner kronor, för förlikning i tre fall där han stämts för bedrägeri.
Den utdragna rättsprocessen kring Trump University ser ut att sluta med en förlikning för fastighetsmagnaten och den blivande presidenten Donald Trump.
25 miljoner dollar är priset som hans advokater gått med på att betala i en förlikning i de totalt tre olika rättsfallen som rör bedrägeri.
New Yorks statsåklagare Eric Schneiderman kallar det för en fantastisk vändning i fallet och en stor vinst för alla de över 6 000 personer som nu kommer få tillbaka de avgifter som de betalat.
Donald Trump kommer, förutom ersättning till studenterna, också behöva betala uppemot en miljon dollar till delstaten New York för att ha brutit mot utbildningslagarna.
Den sex år långa rättsprocessen handlar om det så kallade Trump University, en skola som var i bruk från 2005 till 2011 och där studenter utlovades lika blomstrande karrärer i fastighetsbranschen som miljardären själv.
Studenter betalade så mycket som 35 000 dollar i avgift till skolan, och många menar att de lurades av marknadsföringen. Lärarna var till exempel inte handplockade av Donald Trump och vissa elever har hävdat att det de fick lära sig lika gärna hade kunnat läsas på nätet.
I somras väckte Trump stor uppmärksamhet när han hävdade att domaren i två av rättsfallen gällande skolan var jävig, eftersom hans föräldrar invandrat från Mexiko, och ett av Trumps vallöften var att bygga en mur mot just Mexiko.
Trump har också granskats för mutor när det gäller en domare vars återvalskampanj Trump sponsrat, och där hennes medarbetare i samma veva valde att inte gå vidare med klagomål mot Trump University.

Hyperloop One has settled its lawsuit with former employees
» ‎ Tech

Tags: [edit]

Hyperloop One has settled a lawsuit filed by four former employees.

“Hyperloop One is pleased to announce that it has reached a confidential resolution of litigation with its former employees and looks forward to continuing to execute on its business plan," Hyperloop One wrote in a statement.

Brogan BamBrogan, co-founder and former chief technology officer, and several other employees sued Hyperloop One on claims that the company executives allegedly misused funds, breached their fiduciary duty, violated California labor code, and even assaulted at least one employee by placing a noose on his desk seat.

The defendants in the Hyperloop One case — which included Shervin Pishevar, co-founder and chairman, and CEO Robert Lloyd — denied those charges and filed a counter lawsuit at the time accusing BamBrogan and the other employees of manufacturing a rebellion “in a transparent attempt to seize control of the company.”

The litigation has been settled and Hyperloop One's staff has been informed of the news.

Along with BamBrogan, the other three employees that filed the suit were David Pendergast, former assistant general counsel for Hyperloop One; William Mulholland, former vice president for finance of Hyperloop One; and Knut Sauer, former vice president for business development of Hyperloop One.

All four employees wrote in a statement sent to Business Insider: "We are planning to build rad s**t with rad people, starting with our take on hyperloop. More to come in the near future.”

Justin Berger, the counsel for the four employees who filed the lawsuit against Hyperloop One, also wrote in a statement: “My clients are pleased to announce that they have reached a confidential resolution of litigation with their former employer and look forward to moving on with their future plans."

The timing could not be better for Hyperloop One as it has been making headway on building the high-speed transport system for both passengers and cargo.

In early November, Hyperloop One signed an agreement with Dubai Roads and Transport Authority to evaluate using the Hyperloop to shuttle passengers between Abu Dhabi and Dubai. Hyperloop One will conduct the feasibility study with McKinsey & Co. and the Bjarke Ingels Group.

The start-up also secured $50 million in a funding round led by DP World, the third largest port and terminal operator in the world, in early October. As part of the agreement, Hyperloop One and DP World will conduct a feasibility study to see how Hyperloop technology can more efficiently transport cargo to DP World's flagship Jebel Ali port.

Peter Diamandis, a Hyperloop One board member and CEO of the X-Prize Foundation, previously told Business Insider how the Hyperloop would travel underwater to transport cargo to ports.

Hyperloop One said that latest $50 million funding round brought its total funding to $160 million.

Hyperloop One also plans to open a full-scale development test track in Las Vegas in the first quarter of 2017. The Finnish and Dutch governments have also granted the start-up approval to build "proof of operations" facilities.

Here is the full note Hyperloop One CEO Rob Lloyd sent to employees about the settlement:

Team,

I am pleased to inform you that we have resolved the lawsuit that was filed this summer against Hyperloop One by several of its former employees.

Lawsuits can be distracting for companies; they often halt momentum until they can be resolved. That didn’t happen here.

The resilience we have shown as a company since June has been nothing short of remarkable. Let’s just take a moment to reflect on just some of the accomplishments since.

On construction: We opened Metalworks, the world’s first hyperloop fabrication facility. This week we installed the first tubes on columns, a major step in our development loop. Today we have 65 full time team members working in Nevada at both Metalworks and our Test and Safety. We remain on track to have our Kitty Hawk moment in early 2017.

On partnerships: In Dubai, we announced the Port Jebel Ali feasibility study with DP World and we were selected for Dubai Future Accelerators. We then revealed our designs for the world’s first hyperloop to go from Dubai to Abu Dhabi in 12 minutes in coordination with RTA. And in Europe, we established working groups with the Dutch and Finnish governments for project feasibility.

On financing: We announced a $50 million investment led by DP World and hired Brent Callinicos as chief financial advisor.

This is an impressive list and none of this would have been possible without the entire team, from top to bottom. This is an amazing group to be a part of and we are on the cusp doing something extraordinary together.

Now let’s keep our focus on achieving our Q1 milestones and show the world the first working Hyperloop One system to the shape the future of transportation. The world is watching!

Regards and thank you,

Rob Lloyd, Chief Executive Officer

Makers of Outlast Kickstarting Outlast 2 Companion Diaper - Underscares
» ‎ Overclockers Club news Feed

Tags: [edit]

You cannot say Red Barrels Games does not respond to its fans. Red Barrels is the developer behind the Outlast series of horror games, and following the release of the Outlast 2 Demo (OCC Stream), they saw the people describing the newly soiled state of their underwear. In response, Red Barrels has launched a Kickstarter for Underscares, the Companion Diaper for Outlast 2.

There are tiers to this Kickstarter as well, with the lowest tier that gives more than a "thank you" gets you an Outlast 2 sewable patch and the pattern so you can have some DIY Underscares. At the next level you get a pair of Basic Underscares and a Steam key for Outlast 2, while the next tier has the Deluxe Underscares with a Steam key. The Deluxe pair feature a side drink pocket and a wearable night light. The highest tier, which only one person can purchase, comes with six sewable patches, six Deluxe Underscares, six Steam key, and the Outlast Chapel from PAX East.

For anyone concerned, the Underscares are a completely separate product from Outlast 2 and is only being funded by the Kickstarter project. Success or failure in the diaper business will not impact the game's development.

Lagerkvist tillbaka – men inte i morgon

Han fanns på bänken redan mot Halmstad men man kunde tänkt sig att Jimmy Lagerkvists comeback på plan skulle skett mot Malmhaug.
– Men tyvärr hade jag en utbildningshelg inplanerad i Värnamo så det får vänta ytterligare någon vecka, menar Lagerkvist.

Men med två rutinerade kort i bakfickan i form av just Lagerkvist och Kristian Torstensson har Röke det bra förspänt i truppen inför fortsättningen.
– Just att Röke har ett intressant lag den här säso ngen var en anledning till att jag tackade ja när man frågade om en comeback, förklarar Jimmy Lagerkvist.
– En annan var förstås att ”Krille” (Torstensson) också bestämde sig för att hoppa med i laget igen.
Lagerkvist och Torstensson fanns med i laget i början av 00-talet när man gick så långt att man kvalade till högsta serien.
– Det var ett speciellt lag och gäng då, säger Lagerkvist som egentligen bara hann vila en sommar från innebandyn innan det var dags för en comeback.
– Ljuger väl om jag säger att det var ett våldsamt sug efter innebandyn och jag tror att uppehållet ändå varit nyttigt för mig inför fortsättningen.
Hur är det annars med fysiken utan den vanliga försäsongsträningen med Röke?
– Där kan jag säga att jag inte har några problem. Tränar mycket och jobbar dessutom extra på ett gym i stan, förklarar Jimmy Lagerkvist.
– Dessutom har jag ju inte varit ifrån innebandyn särskilt länge och spelar ett enkelt spel så man kommer nog snabbt att vara inne i det.
Men inte förrän i bortamötet med Sävsjö den 27 november kan vi räkna med att se Lagerkvist på plan igen.
