../src/.libs/libpdl.a'. After building, this seems to be the only |
version of the library that's complete. The file `src/libpdl.a' is |
very short and obviously incomplete. |
2. I've noticed that there's no target to make an html version of a |
texinfo file. I think for many users, html is preferable over info |
and dvi. Does it make sense for a target to exist and a standard |
location to install html documentation? |
3. On a related note, would it make sense for there to be a `make |
postscript' target? I can do things like `make' where `foo' is |
the name of my package to get postscript, but it seems like something |
complementary to `make dvi' would be more natural. And so would a |
rule for `pdf' (using ps2pdf?). |
4. Using automake 1.4 on Red Hat Linux 7.1, I get a weird copying |
error when doing 'automake --add-missing -c', yet, the file that I |
needed (in this case, texinfo.tex) was copied perfectly: |
localhost 0/342 ~/research/libpdl> automake --add-missing -c |
doc/ installing `doc/texinfo.tex' |
error while copying |
Looking at automake itself, I see: |
elsif (! system ('cp', $am_dir . '/' . $file, $errfile)) |
$suppress = 0; |
$trailer = "\n error while copying\n"; |
But doesn't `system' return 0 if everything goes well? |
5. Another thing I've noticed: Shouldn't `make install' report a |
warning to stdout if `install-info' isn't found? I was scratching my |
head for a while trying to figure out why my info files weren't being |
reflected in my dir file before I realized that `install-info' wasn't |
in my path. |
P.S.: Please be sure to reply to me in addition to this list as I'm |

Rockhopper penguins are a species that belong to the taxonomic Genus of crested penguins Eudyptes, (having crests on their head). They are named for their habit of hopping from rock to rock. |
God has gifted these birds with amazing abilities. They may not be able to fly in the air, but they can sure fly under the water. They also know exactly when to start mating, and how to do a mating call. They remember where they nested and return to that exact nest in the midst of 100,000 others, and they lay their egg... |
A Rockhopper's Head. |
Rockhopper penguins are about 55cm long, and weigh about 2.5 kilograms. They stand on two legs that are set back on their body.[1] They have a short, round bill that is slightly red, and short, stubby legs that are pink. The females tend to be smaller than the males.[2] |
They have a waterproof coat that measures a thickness of 2.9 cm. It keeps the water out by keeping a cushion of air underneath the first layer of feathers that seals off the water. The ventral side of their body is colored white, and the other sides of the penguin are colored bluish-black. They have strong, narrow, and... |
Rockhopper chicks don't have a brownish beak when they are born, and they are also born without their yellow crests on each side of the head. They will eventually begin to molt their baby feathers and then get their smoother feathers, instead of the fluff that they were born with. After they have molted, they have reac... |
The mating of the rockhopper penguin takes place during the summer. Some of the rockhopper penguins have different mating calls to attract their mate. This is sometimes called ecstatic vocalization. It helps them communicate the intentions of the penguin. Penguins usually reproduce with their same mate for many years.[... |
After the penguins have mated, they create a nest to keep their eggs in. They dig a hole in the ground and surround it with dried grass.[7] Sometimes, they construct their nest behind high grass called tussocks so they can't been seen from below or from the sides.[8] The rockhoppers usually lay an average of two eggs.[... |
Two Rockhoppers in the midst of allopreening. |
Rockhopper penguins are named for their habit of hopping from rock to rock.[14] They also tend to be aggressive with everyone but their mate. They are often preening their mate, which is mainly known as allopreening. They are very protective of their families. They peck at anyone or anything that comes to close, human ... |
The rockhoppers' main habitat is a group of islands called the Falkland Islands. They are the only species of penguin found so far north.[17] They are also found in places such as Argentina and Chile. They like to nest their colonies near the water on rocky slopes, where they can hop on rocks and be close to fresh wate... |
The Rockhoppers' nesting ground contains usually up to 100,000 nests, and sometimes the penguins share nesting grounds with either albatross or cormorants. These birds don't tend to interfere with the habitat of the penguins. They return every year to the same spot for breeding, and use the same nest most of the time. ... |
The rockhoppers' seventeen species are all legally protected now, but they were once vulnerable to hunting and egg collecting. They are now protected by the Antarctic Treaty of 1959, which makes it illegal to harm or interfere with any of the penguins, their eggs, or their lifestyle. Any penguin specimen that is collec... |

Court: Use of 'boesman' not hate speech |
The Equality Court in Cape Town has dismissed a Rondebosch man's claim that Die Burger newspaper's use of the word "boesman" amounted to hate speech. |
The court said it could not fault the newspaper, particularly when looking at the context in which the word had been used. |
Jacobus Faasen submitted that, as a descendant of the Khoisan, he found the use of the word "boesman" to be hate speech because it disregarded his human dignity. |
He said it was derived from the word "bosjesman", which meant baboon or orang-utang. |
The court had to decide whether the use of the word amounted to hate speech, whether it meant baboon and whether Die Burger used it with the intent to degrade, demean or dehumanise the San community. |
Equality Court magistrate James Lekhuleni ruled on Friday that the evidence led by Faasen and his witnesses did not indicate advocacy of hatred. |
The evidence also did not show that Die Burger had an intention to be hurtful, he said. |
"Objectively speaking and taking into account the context in which (Die Burger) published the word 'boesman' and the evidence of the San Council witness, I find that the usage of the word did not cause harm, hostility or hatred. |
"Instead, the San Council's representative was adamant that no hurt or harm was caused to them or the San community with the manner in which (Die Burger) published the word 'boesman'." |
Lekhuleni said that he agreed with the newspaper's expert witnesses that the meaning of some words changed with the passage of time. |
He found the evidence was overwhelming that the word did not mean orang-utang. |
Lekhuleni also said he could not find any malice on the part of the newspaper and dismissed Faasen's claim. |
He ordered that each party bear its own costs. |
Faasen instituted similar proceedings against the Sunday Times, but the case was postponed pending the outcome of the case against Die Burger. |
The magistrate ordered that the newspaper and all other publishers be restrained from using the word in a prejudicial and offensive manner. |
Dewald van den Berg, who represented Die Burger, said it was important for the public to remember that Die Burger had a code of conduct that stated the word be used only in exceptional circumstances. |
In this case it was used in a particular context and was not intended to offend anyone. |

Maui Pilates: Abs Made Easy |
Eva Bondar |
Year Released: 2007 |
Categories: Pilates/Core Strength |
Show oldest reviews first |
Maui Pilates: Abs Made Easy is led by instructor Eva Bander and filmed on a Hawaiian beach. Although it isn't quite as focused on abs as the title suggests, it is certainly "easy" in that it's a very gentle program, more of a mat-based stretching routine with some Pilates moves thrown in. The DVD is chaptered to includ... |
Surprisingly, the Warm-Up was the longest section at 20.5 minutes. Eva begins in a seated cross-legged position for breathing, overhead reaches, shoulder rolls, and spine/neck stretches; she also brings the legs forward for a seated forward bend. She then moves into a side saddle position for a slow twist to both sides... |
The final segment of the workout focuses on the back (10.5) minutes. Starting in an all fours (tabletop) position, Eva has you arch and round your back to stretch the spine, then balance while lifting opposite arm/opposite leg. In a prone position, she performs a back extension (cobra) and hamstring stretches. Next com... |
Instructor Comments: |
Eva provided voiceover instruction; her manner was generally soft-spoken and low-key. She moves VERY slowly through the exercises, which may be boring to some. Also, although the workout is filmed on a Hawaii beach, it's actually not very picturesque, as you catch only a small swatch of dark sand beach (plus it's a bit... |

Kimi to Boku. 2: 03, 04 |
That either turned you off or reeled you in, which is okay because now I can assure you that you are awesome for either being really confident with your sexuality or you are a fujoshi like me. :3 Welcome . . . to another episodic coverage of Kimi to Boku. 2. |
I believe that episode 6 is already out, but because I am so awesome, I will be sharing my thoughts on episodes 3 + 4. For my thoughts on episodes 1 + 2 go HERE. |
lol Shun is wearing a dress. |
It is x-mas time in the 2D world and the boys are caught up in Chizuru's shenanigans once again. A couple of pre-existing characters make an appearance in this episode too. Remember that hot sensei and his friend?OH YES. ;) It was funny that Chizuru still felt resentment towards sempai's friend simply because he couldn... |
Pedoreindeer XD. |
To make matters worse, the kid is nearly run over by a reindeer. Luckily, Akira goes shounen and saves the kid. Thus, giving him a chance to redeem himself. :) |
I always question whether the series is episodic or not and I think it is. Every once in a while, there is a random character introduced and it kind of steers you away from the main characters for a bit and gives you someone else's point of view . . . which is alright, but I demand more Kaname! |
