Yes, my PHP includes are also slightly dynamic. Page titles and meta
tags, for instance, are written as per the needs of the page.
$title="Page title";
$description="Here I describe the page";
include_once"/blah/header.inc";

Use a header 301 redirect only! It moves pagerank to the new page.
Don't use javascript or meta redirects.
This is in my .htaccess files for redirecting away from the www site:
# www.site.com to site.com
Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST}s%{HTTPS} ^www\.(.*)((s)on|s.*)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^ http%3://%1%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]
Or for individual pages:
redirect 301 /old.html http://domain.com/new.html
redirect 301 /olddirectory http://domain.com/newdirectory/

Don't do that. Use 301 and let the pagerank bleed through. Enforcing
your rules by annoying the user will just stop him from linking to
you. Today, many users don't even think about www. On my most popular
sites, less than 5% of the type-in traffic has the www at the
beginning. That in contrast to the late nineties, when it was over
90%. Today's users are young, impatient, and do know know about or
care about conventions.

So long as it provides a simple XML format (such as RSS) it's good.
Google loves that! But maintaining it on a different domain
(livejournal) isn't helping your sf.org pagerank. By the way, I think
(but am not certain) that RSS pagerank affects the root site's
pagerank. I have not seen anyone else mention it, but experiments make
me believe that it is so. And just look how well these social-network
sites do, such as twitter, that have thousands of RSS feeds. It might
be a bug in google, or it might be intentional.

Well, I didn't measure type-in, but in May this year, I had 1,843 hits for
shlomifish.org vs. 400,203 hits for www.shlomifish.org. Most people probably
come to my site from links from other sites, so it should not be a major
concern.

Right. I've played with the idea of setting up a blog on my domain, but have
neglected working on it, because it seems like too much maintenance. I also
couldn't find a blog engine that I liked.

Since all the Culmus fonts have CLM in them you can get the list as below. You can also see the fonts at http://culmus.sourceforge.net/ .

Here is the file with the Culmus fonts. I am looking for a modern, non-serif font that is curvy, not boxy. Immediately, that leaves only Caladings, Ellinia, Nachlieli, and Yehuda. Caladings is to wide-spaced, Ellinia and Yehuda are too narrow-bodied. That leaves Nachlieli as the only fitting font.

It's everything I expect it to be and not more - the external API and the
functions it imports from libc. However, running strip on the MSVC-generated
.dll's generates a .dll under 20KB that also seems to be fully functional.

I'm not statically linking libc. With libc statically linked, the .so is much
larger:
{
$ ldd libfreecell-solver.so.0
linux-gate.so.1 => (0xe000)
libm.so.6 => /lib/i686/libm.so.6 (0xb7e81000)

How to send a large splitted file with mimes

OT: Help with simple Linux maintenance
Hi, A friend of mine is looking for basic Linux support at the Safed area. It is hard for me to drive there for personal reasons. She has a Linux laptop fully functional with Kbuntu 9.04. It is connected via Ethernet to a cable modem. The cable modem is working and the computer receives a cable IP . She has a Netvision account and the connect script was tested with a cable modem at my place and it worked. The script also worked when every command is cut, paste and executed in a root shell. But, running the script with sudo yield nothing. She is willing to pay for your time if you can get the script to work an be on call when events like this pop up. Please answer to me directly and not to the mailing list. Thank You, Gal ___ Linux-il mailing list Linux-il@cs.huji.ac.il http://mailman.cs.huji.ac.il/mailman/listinfo/linux-il

Re: OT: Help with simple Linux maintenance
Hi If it is working from the terminal command after command, it seems that the script is not waiting for the "completion" (meaning waiting till all the side effects are done) of one command before it starts the next. It seems that the easy way to test it, is to put a large sleep between every 2 commands (I am sure that there is a more elegant way to solve this, but I don't know it) Shahar - Original Message - From: Dotan Cohen To: Gal Goldschmidt Cc: linux-il Sent: Monday, June 15, 2009 12:30 AM Subject: Re: OT: Help with simple Linux maintenance > A friend of mine is looking for basic Linux support at the Safed area. > It is hard for me to drive there for personal reasons. > > She has a Linux laptop fully functional with Kbuntu 9.04. > It is connected via Ethernet to a cable modem. > The cable modem is working and the computer receives a cable IP . > > She has a Netvision account and the connect script was tested with a cable > modem at my place and it worked. > The script also worked when every command is cut, paste and executed in a > root shell. > But, running the script with sudo yield nothing. > > She is willing to pay for your time if you can get the script to work an be > on call when events like this pop up. > > Please answer to me directly and not to the mailing list. > > Thank You, > Gal She shouldn't have to pay someone.
