Under Give 1 Get 1, which will run for two weeks starting Nov. 12, U.S. customers will be able to pay $399 to buy two laptops: one for themselves and one to be shipped to a child in one of… four countries.
This is one of those ideas that's so good, I'm amazed no one thought of it sooner.
This is probably the best article on pornography I have ever read:
Pornography and the End of Masculinity

Let's get something straight:
Duck.
Duck.

Tonight I asked Nicole if, instead of buying her an engagement ring, we could get an engagement plasma TV. Unfortunately, this did not seem to her to be an effective substitution. Chances are therefore pretty good, even before I ask, that an engagement Mac Mini is out, too.

I've had some issues installing an apache module recently (mod_log_mysql for those of you playing at home), and in my travels across Google I came upon a great many forums that include a query to the effect of:
The documentation says to add LoadModule rewrite_module modules/mod_rewrite.so to httpd.conf, but I don't have mod_rewrite.so! So I recompiled apache using the --enable-rewrite option, but it still isn't there!
I'm paraphrasing, of course, any relation to actual forum posts, real or imagined, is purely coincidental.
Anyway, the solution is somewhat poorly defined in the configure help: you have to pass an argument to --enable-rewrite to get it to build a shared object file instead of compiling it in. Personally, I prefer to just pass a list of modules I want built rather than adding the shared argument to each module's option:
./configure --enable-so --enable-mods-shared="rewrite[ modules]" [options]
Voila! mod_rewrite.so lives!
Compiling gettext on some systems (0.15 as well as 0.16 did it for me, it probably goes back further) seems to fail for some people, giving a "undefined reference to `ceil'" error. This error is discussed on on the bug-gnu-utils mailing list as well as here.

I worked around the problem by editing config.status and setting MSGMERGE_LIBM to "-lm", but Bruno later offered a less hackish solution: (diff follows)
2007-01-10 Bruno Haible <brunoØclisp.org>
* configure.ac (MSGMERGE_LIBM): Avoid inlining of the ceil, sqrt calls
on glibc systems.

Hope it helps. Good luck.
