Cystic fibrosis
Cystic fibrosis
Cystic fibrosis is an inherited disorder that causes severe damage to the lungs, digestive system and other organs in the body.
Cystic fibrosis affects the cells that produce mucus, sweat and digestive juices. These secreted fluids are normally thin and slippery. But in people with cystic fibrosis, a defective gene causes the secretions to become sticky and thick. Instead of acting as a lubricant, the secretions plug up tubes, ducts and passageways, especially in the lungs and pancreas.
Although cystic fibrosis requires daily care, people with the condition are usually able to attend school and work, and often have a better quality of life than people with cystic fibrosis had in previous decades. Improvements in screening and treatments mean people with cystic fibrosis now may live into their mid- to late 30s, on average, and some are living into their 40s and 50s.
Screening of newborns for cystic fibrosis is now performed in every state in the United States. As a result, the condition can be diagnosed within the first month of life, before symptoms develop. For people born before newborn screening was performed, it's important to be aware of the signs and symptoms of cystic fibrosis.
Cystic fibrosis signs and symptoms vary, depending on the severity of the disease. Even in the same person, symptoms may worsen or improve as time passes. Some people may not experience symptoms until adolescence or adulthood.
People with cystic fibrosis have a higher than normal level of salt in their sweat. Parents often can taste the salt when they kiss their children. Most of the other signs and symptoms of cystic fibrosis affect the respiratory system and digestive system. However, adults diagnosed with cystic fibrosis are more likely to have atypical symptoms, such as recurring bouts of inflamed pancreas (pancreatitis), infertility and recurring pneumonia.
Respiratory signs and symptoms
The thick and sticky mucus associated with cystic fibrosis clogs the tubes that carry air in and out of your lungs. This can cause signs and symptoms such as:
- A persistent cough that produces thick mucus (sputum)
- Wheezing
- Breathlessness
- Exercise intolerance
- Repeated lung infections
- Inflamed nasal passages or a stuffy nose
Digestive signs and symptoms
The thick mucus can also block tubes that carry digestive enzymes from your pancreas to your small intestine. Without these digestive enzymes, your intestines aren't able to completely absorb the nutrients in the food you eat. The result is often:
- Foul-smelling, greasy stools
- Poor weight gain and growth
- Intestinal blockage, particularly in newborns (meconium ileus)
- Severe constipation
Frequent straining while passing stool can cause part of the rectum — the end of the large intestine — to protrude outside the anus (rectal prolapse). When this occurs in children, it may be a sign of cystic fibrosis. Parents should consult a physician knowledgeable about cystic fibrosis. Rectal prolapse in children may sometimes require surgery. Rectal prolapse in children with cystic fibrosis is less common than it was in the past, which may be due to earlier testing, diagnosis and treatment of cystic fibrosis.
When to see a doctor
If you or your child has symptoms of cystic fibrosis — or if someone in your family has cystic fibrosis — talk with your doctor about testing for the disease.
Seek immediate medical care if you or your child has difficulty breathing.
In cystic fibrosis, a defect (mutation) in a gene changes a protein that regulates the movement of salt in and out of cells. The result is thick, sticky mucus in the respiratory, digestive and reproductive systems, as well as increased salt in sweat.
Many different defects can occur in the gene. The type of gene mutation is associated with the severity of the condition.
Children need to inherit one copy of the gene from each parent in order to have the disease. If children inherit only one copy, they won't develop cystic fibrosis. However, they will be carriers and possibly pass the gene to their own children.
Risk factors
- Family history. Because cystic fibrosis is an inherited disorder, it runs in families.
- Race. Although cystic fibrosis occurs in all races, it is most common in white people of Northern European ancestry.
Respiratory system complications
- Damaged airways (bronchiectasis). Cystic fibrosis is one of the leading causes of bronchiectasis, a condition that damages the airways. This makes it harder to move air in and out of the lungs and clear mucus from the
- airways (bronchial tubes).
Chronic infections. Thick mucus in the lungs and sinuses provides an ideal breeding ground for bacteria and fungi. People with cystic fibrosis may often have sinus infections, bronchitis or pneumonia.
- Growths in the nose (nasal polyps). Because the lining inside the nose is inflamed and swollen, it can develop soft, fleshy growths (polyps).
- Coughing up blood (hemoptysis). Over time, cystic fibrosis can cause thinning of the airway walls. As a result, teenagers and adults with cystic fibrosis may cough up blood.
- Pneumothorax. This condition, in which air collects in the space that separates the lungs from the chest wall, also is more common in older people with cystic fibrosis. Pneumothorax can cause chest pain and breathlessness.
- Respiratory failure. Over time, cystic fibrosis can damage lung tissue so badly that it no longer works. Lung function usually worsens gradually, and it eventually can become life-threatening.
- Acute exacerbations. People with cystic fibrosis may experience worsening of their respiratory symptoms, such as coughing and shortness of breath, for several days to weeks. This is called an acute exacerbation and requires treatment in the hospital.
Digestive system complications
- Nutritional deficiencies. Thick mucus can block the tubes that carry digestive enzymes from your pancreas to your intestines. Without these enzymes, your body can't absorb protein, fats or fat-soluble vitamins.
- Diabetes. The pancreas produces insulin, which your body needs to use sugar. Cystic fibrosis increases the risk of diabetes. Around 30 percent of people with cystic fibrosis develop diabetes by age 30.
- Blocked bile duct. The tube that carries bile from your liver and gallbladder to your small intestine may become blocked and inflamed, leading to liver problems and sometimes gallstones.
- Intestinal obstruction. Intestinal obstruction can happen to people with cystic fibrosis at all ages. Children and adults with cystic fibrosis are more likely than are infants to develop intussusception, a condition in which a section of the intestines folds in on itself like an accordion.
- Distal intestinal obstruction syndrome (DIOS). DIOS is partial or complete obstruction where the small intestine meets the large intestine.
Reproductive system complications
Almost all men with cystic fibrosis are infertile because the tube that connects the testes and prostate gland (vas deferens) is either blocked with mucus or missing entirely. Certain fertility treatments and surgical procedures sometimes make it possible for men with cystic fibrosis to become biological fathers.
Although women with cystic fibrosis may be less fertile than other women, it's possible for them to conceive and to have successful pregnancies. Still, pregnancy can worsen the signs and symptoms of cystic fibrosis, so be sure to discuss the possible risks with your doctor.
Other complications
- Thinning of the bones (osteoporosis). People with cystic fibrosis are at higher risk of developing a dangerous thinning of bones.
- Electrolyte imbalances and dehydration. Because people with cystic fibrosis have saltier sweat, the balance of minerals in their blood may be upset. Signs and symptoms include increased heart rate, fatigue, weakness and low blood pressure.
If you or your partner has close relatives with cystic fibrosis, you both may want to undergo genetic testing before having children. The test, which is performed in a lab on a sample of blood, can help determine your risk of having a child with cystic fibrosis.
If you're already pregnant and the genetic test shows that your baby may be at risk of cystic fibrosis, your doctor can conduct additional tests on your developing child.
Genetic testing isn't for everyone. Before you decide to be tested, you should talk to a genetic counselor about the psychological impact the test results might carry.

Bishops Create New USCCB Position to Aid Post-Abortion Healing
The Knights of Columbus have provided funding for a new staff member, who will work with the post-abortion healing ministry Project Rachel.
BALTIMORE — The U.S. bishops have voted to add a bishops' conference staff member to work with the post-abortion healing ministry Project Rachel at a national level, citing growing demand for help.
"Over the past several years, diocesan interest in and expansion of post-abortion healing ministries have dramatically increased," Cardinal Sean O'Malley of Boston, the chair of the U.S. bishops' pro-life activities committee, said Nov. 12 at the USCCB fall assembly in Baltimore.
"While it's encouraging that so many dioceses are asking for help and responding, the pro-life committee recognized some time ago that additional help would be needed."
Cardinal O'Malley said the committee envisions the new position as a resource for diocesan directors, who offer retreats, support-group models and training resources for priests.
The U.S. bishops approved the creation of the new position by a vote of 225-9 on Nov. 12.
Project Rachel works to support the healing of women who have had abortions, through counseling, retreats, prayers, resources and other efforts.
The U.S. bishops' Secretariat of Pro-Life Activities has worked with diocesan Project Rachel leaders to develop "many helpful resources" and to provide on-site, customized diocesan training.
"Yet the demand for help is ever increasing," the cardinal said.
The Project Rachel website, HopeAfterAbortion.com, which connects those in need to diocesan programs, receives five million visits each year.
Cardinal O'Malley said the funding for the new position was possible "through the ongoing generosity of the Knights of Columbus."
Archbishop J. Peter Sartain of Seattle, chair of the U.S. Bishops' Committee on Priorities and Plans, said his committee recommended the additional staffer at the U.S. bishops' fall assembly, which is meeting in Baltimore Nov. 11-14.
Cardinal Timothy Dolan, the outgoing president of the U.S. bishops' conference, voiced his "sincere appreciation" to the Knights of Columbus, the largest Catholic fraternal organization in the U.S., for their financial support. He said after the vote, "They're so good to us in so many ways."

Downloaders upskill through online learning
Motivated types can attain a degree or simply add to their knowledge base using educational material on the net.
Ever wondered what it would be like to have a little more education under your belt?
Thanks to the internet, the days of sticking to what you know for lack of a better option are numbered.
From the comfort of your home, you can now study machine learning at Stanford University, exercise physiology at the University of Melbourne, and medical neuroscience at Duke University on your computer in your free time and for free - even if you never graduated from high school.
Or, if you want to add a few letters to the end of your name to improve your job prospects, you can pay to do an accredited course online rather than on campus.
The internet is a goldmine for online learning. If you have a computer, time and motivation, everything from learning how to apply make-up like Lady Gaga to getting a master's in business administration can be accomplished from the privacy of your own home.
Recent Evocca College graduate Dominique Scott says she was drawn to online learning for its flexibility. Having just had a baby, studying on campus wasn't feasible.
''I've wanted to become a project manager for a long time,'' Scott says. ''Online study allowed me to work at my own pace and gave me the flexibility to study whenever I had a spare moment.''
For public relations consultant Laura Byrne, online learning enabled her to specialise in nutrition communications through a university in Boston without setting foot on American soil.
''It was the perfect program for me, but I live in Australia,'' Byrne says. ''Taking it online was a no-brainer.''
Shelling out tens of thousands of dollars to do an online course isn't strictly necessary. If you're simply learning for the love for it, many prestigious universities around the world now offer free MOOCs (massive open online courses) through services such as Coursera, Khan Academy and iTunes U.
Coursera is one of the leading MOOC providers. Founded by two Stanford University computer scientists and backed by millions of dollars in venture capital, it has 204 courses available from 35 schools, and more than 1.8 million students from 196 countries enrolled at present.
If you're after a qualification that employers will recognise, however, you'll still need to attain a certificate or degree from an Australian or reputable international educational institution.
''From a qualification perspective, I would say [MOOCs] aren't worth anything,'' says the career coach at Career Education Australia, Scott Tetley. ''But that's not to say that the learning hasn't been valuable. These courses can improve your confidence by increasing your skill set or knowledge base and assist in personal career advancement.''
The online courses offered by Australian educational institutions aren't cheap. In most cases, they cost roughly the same as the equivalent on-campus courses, even though students don't have the same level of access to teachers and fellow students.
The chief executive of Open Universities Australia, Paul Wappett, says the quality of discussion in an online course can equal, if not exceed, that of an on-campus course. ''What the internet does, through the use of forums, discussion boards, chat boards, wikis and the like, is allow people that wouldn't otherwise speak up in class to contribute to the discussion,'' Wappett says. ''The level of discourse that's happening in a face-to-face environment is limited to a small number of people anyway.''
Having done both on-campus and online study, Diane Hardie, a Deakin University graduate, agrees. ''With on-campus, there's always that one student that puts up their hand and monopolises the whole subject,'' she says.
''Whereas in online, you've got it all on a platter. You can join in to the forum groups that are there, and you can chat online or send an email directly to your tutor.''
But online learning isn't for everyone. With no scheduled classes, the pressure of outside commitments, and often no separate study area, it requires a high level of discipline to keep up.
''There's no doubt that when you're in your own living room without a cohort of people around you, you need to be very self-motivated,'' Wappett says. ''You need to read the materials, do the assignments and work, and also engage with the fellow students and the lecturer. The temptations to not study are ever present.''
Free online education options
iTunes U If you have an iPod touch, iPhone or iPad, downloading the iTunes U app from the App Store gives you access to more than 500,000 free lectures, videos, books and other educational resources from hundreds of learning institutions around the world.
Khan Academy Available through a web browser and the dedicated iPad app, Khan Academy bills itself as a ''global classroom''. It combines video lectures with practice exercises and a custom profile that tracks your achievements and learning progress.
Coursera The courses available through Coursera operate more like the traditional online learning programs, with a set start date and duration, new video lectures and slides posted every week, and assignments to be completed by certain deadlines.
edX edX is similar to Coursera, only with fewer courses and an emphasis on maths, science and computer programming subjects.

Stop and go: Residents hope city sees light
With the December 10 re-opening of the Park Street bridge, residents on side streets surrounding Locust Avenue and Park Street are finally smiling as detoured drivers disappeared. But those smiles may soon turn to frowns if the city doesn't "see the light."
"After four months of waiting to pull out of my driveway," says Calhoun Street denizen Sandy DeKay, "I pulled out without seeing a car in sight. It was gorgeous."
But DeKay says disappointment could be in store for her and her neighbors if the city gets rid of the traffic signal at the corner of North Avenue and Park Street.
The signal was intended as a temporary fix for increased traffic at that intersection during bridge construction, but DeKay says members of the Locust Grove Neighborhood Association are pressing to make it permanent.
City spokesman Maurice Jones says a decision will have to wait until sometime in 2004.
"We'll be gathering data on traffic numbers at the beginning of the year," says Jones. "Then we'll evaluate the feasibility of keeping the light."
Park Street resident Frances Walton, however, doesn't think keeping the light is a good idea.
"All you have is more noise, more congestion of traffic, and more pollution," she says.
But Park Street resident Weldon Showalter, who lives directly across from North Avenue (and who festooned his front yard with a "Meadowcreek Parkway Alien" sculpture), says getting in and out of his driveway without the signal was nearly impossible.
"I would do anything," Showalter says, "to keep it there."

How a Digital Marketing Agency Can Help Your Business
How a Digital Marketing Agency Can Help Your Business
A digital marketing agency provides you with the flexibility to use just one company to handle all of your different online marketing needs. If your team already has experience in one or a few fields, then they can handle that, and the digital marketing agency handles the rest.
You will be able to hire someone from a marketing agency that will help you design the websites and make sure that everything is working properly. The person from the agency will also take care of everything from choosing the right keywords to getting traffic to your site to drive sales. You'll have someone else to do all of this and still not have to be concerned yourself with anything but the results of your website.
The agency will also work to get your website's conversion rate to the highest that it can be. This is important because if your site isn't converting visitors into customers, then your business won't make any money.
A digital marketing agency will also be responsible for getting you set up with a good affiliate program to help with your business. Once people find you, chances are that they'll click through your affiliate links and start buying products off of your website. Getting people to trust you with their credit card information is one of the most important things you can do, and this agency can provide you with the tools and information you need to build this trust with potential customers.
It is very easy to get your website noticed by the search engines. Even though a website might not be as professional as a site with the same keyword, a good one can get you a spot on a search engine for your particular niche. The goal is for people to see your website and click on the search box to find out more about what you have to offer. This makes it a lot easier for you to build your business.click here
For someone just starting out with their own business, it can be hard to get them going. However, a marketing agency can help you find the best keywords and build the content around them to make the most amount of money. The agency will also work with you to make sure that your content is as optimized as possible so that you can get your site on the first page of a search.
One of the main reasons that digital marketing agencies are a good choice is because they understand the way search engines work. They can help you find ways to put a website on the first page of the search engine. Once they have found ways to put your website on the first page, the search engines will give you the rankings you want so that your site will appear on the top of the list when people are searching for the keywords that you have used.
When you hire a digital marketing agency, it can be difficult to get your website noticed because your website might not be as professional looking as it could be. The agency can help to make your site look professional without making it too flashy. They can also build links to your website so that more people can find it. People who are interested in your website will eventually see it and see all of the benefits of using it.
When someone finds your website and decides to buy something, you may not make a sale. However, the marketing agency can put your website on the first page of the search engine, which means that you will see more people seeing your website and making a sale. This is one of the main reasons why a digital marketing agency can work for your business.read more
If you use the internet to promote your business, you may have a lot of traffic to your site, but if it is not getting the attention that you would like, you may lose interest in promoting your site. This can cause your site to become very boring. Your website will look lifeless and have very little content. However, a marketing agency can help to make your website look like you have taken the time to put some time and effort into it and thought into it.
A digital marketing agency can help you gain more traffic to your site while promoting your website for free. You do not have to pay anything if you hire a digital marketing agency to get your site the attention you need. This is very important if you are just starting out because you do not want to spend money and get nothing back. Your website will gain a lot of traffic from the promotion and people will start to buy from you because they trust the people who are running your site.

O'Reilly cherry-picked census numbers to falsely suggest Bush is better on poverty than Clinton
Fox News host Bill O'Reilly compared the poverty rate in 1996 with the poverty rate in 2004 to falsely suggest that President Bush has done more to reduce poverty in the United States than President Clinton. O'Reilly cited the statistics in response to claims, which he described as "complete nonsense," that the Bush administration has neglected impoverished Americans. While O'Reilly is correct that the poverty rate in 1996 was higher than in 2004, he took those numbers out of context to mask a far more significant fact: The poverty rate declined every year of the Clinton presidency and has increased every year under the Bush presidency. Put another way, the poverty rate was higher now than it was when Clinton left office. During the Clinton presidency, the poverty rate fell from 15.1 percent in 1993 to a low of 11.3 percent in 2000; it has risen every year that Bush has been in office, from 11.7 percent in 2001 to 12.7 percent in 2004.
From the September 13 edition of Fox News' The O'Reilly Factor:
O'REILLY: The aftermath of [Hurricane] Katrina has produced a debate over poor Americans. There are about 37 million people living below the poverty line right now. The issue was described this way by Newsweek reporter Evan Thomas, a liberal guy but not alone, who writes, "Liberals will say [the authorities] were indifferent to the plight of poor African-Americans. It is true that Katrina laid bare society's massive neglect of its least fortunate."
Massive neglect? Let's take a look at that bit of overstatement. Halfway through President Clinton's tenure in office in 1996, the poverty rate was 13.7 percent. Halfway through President Bush's tenure, the rate is 12.7 percent, a full point lower. In 1996, the Clinton budget allotted $191 billion for poverty entitlements. That was 12.2 percent of the budget and a whopping amount of money. That's why Bill Clinton was called the first black president by some. However, the Bush 2006 budget allots a record-shattering $368 billion for poverty entitlements, 14.6 percent of the entire budget, a huge increase over Clinton's spending on poverty entitlements.
Did the elite media mention that? Jesse Jackson mention that? Of course they didn't, because it's much more convenient for Evan Thomas and others to imply America under President Bush has turned its back on the poor, but it's absolute nonsense.
O'Reilly's assertion echoed a similar claim by CNN contributor, talk radio host, and Bush-Cheney '04 campaign adviser Rev. Joe Watkins that the United States has experienced a "reduction" in poverty under President Bush.

Writers on the Range: Great hope, great fear on climate change
Writers on the Range
Last month, three little girls, ages 8, 5 and 2, and their mother, were killed in a Wyoming flash flood that washed away their van. It was the kind of torrential downpour climatologists predict will increase as the planet warms.
Their father survived. He alone can speak of the horror of trying to save his family, only to realize he could barely save himself. In the rushing water, he ran up against the greatest fear humans can experience: that we will be unable to take care of our children.
Also in July, on the other side of the earth, Marcus Stephen, president of the tiny South Pacific island of Nauru, used The New York Times to plead with the world. As a rising ocean laps at his island, he exhorted the international community to "plan for the biggest environmental and humanitarian challenge of our time."
"What if the pollution coming from our island nations was threatening the very existence of the major emitters?" he asked. "What would be the nature of today's debate under those circumstances?"
Stephen asked the world to operate according to the greatest of all human hopes and aspirations: that we treat others the way we would like to be treated ourselves – that we follow the Golden Rule.
Our greatest hope and our greatest fear are united by one issue: climate change. Solve this profound threat to civilization and we become a living manifestation of the Golden Rule. Fail and we realize our greatest fear: that we'll be unable to protect our children from flood, drought, famine, fire and war.
This sounds biblical because we face the very stuff of the Bible. The challenge presented by climate change is embedded in our most ancient texts.
But as often happened with the people in the Bible millennia ago, we are still desperately trying to ignore the problem. In America, the political right denies the mere fact of warming. Globally, at a recent U.N. Security Council meeting, members deadlocked over whether they should address rising sea levels and competition over water resources.
In response to vapid leadership and a broken political process unable to solve even small problems, many of us have turned inward, to backyard gardens and solar panels and community bans on plastic bags. These are good actions, but so short of what is needed that I do not know whether to weep or to laugh.
Still, I sympathize. We are following timeless advice for survival as an apocalypse approaches: "Where you have nothing else, construct ceremonies out of the air, and breathe upon them," novelist Cormac McCarthy wrote in "The Road." Or, to phrase it differently, in a place without people, be a person.
And yet I believe that we should not yet abandon the public sphere for private ceremonies in our own backyards. Working as a nation with other nations, including Nauru, to reduce extreme weather and drought and plague would be the decent, human thing to do. It would let us citizens of the globe endow our lives with the primal aspirations of grace, compassion and dignity.
It may be hard to visualize the United States acting from such motives. Government's potential to help us lead moral lives has been hijacked by those who equate morality with banning gay weddings or stem cell research.
But the appeal of these issues to so many people shows that the desire to advance core moral values is strong among us. The life or death question is whether that subverted moral desire can be turned toward protection of our children.
It is easy to despair. But there is also reason to hope. We are in a dynamic situation. Even as the waves lap higher around Nauru, even as climate change helps to kill children in Wyoming, our conservative heartland is being cooked by extraordinary temperatures and dried out by persistent drought. Were the voters in Oklahoma and Texas who suffered through record-breaking temperatures and drought pleased when Govs. Mary Fallin and Rick Perry asked them to pray for rain? Or would they rather have seen expanding solar photovoltaic production, where the sun would fuel their air conditioners?
Many elected officials in the states most afflicted by the effects of climate change view government action as radicalism. But what is being asked of society and government is not radical: It is a return to who we are.

The House of Rock was built in 1963 in Birmingham, Alabama as a private single-family residence. The ranch-style home is quite large, with over a dozen rooms including a large vaulted 1970s addition that houses an indoor swimming pool. A rock waterfall with a grotto shower sits on one end of the pool. The house has 5 bedrooms, 5 baths, two kitchens, and multiple living areas. There was even one room dedicated to housing the owner's pet birds, complete with large windows and a dirt floor with an open skylight for the birds to fly up to the second floor. At one time, the grounds were meticulously landscaped with a Japanese-style garden in the backyard. According to neighbors, the owners had many visitors who would come to just enjoy the garden, which is said to have rivaled the Botanical Gardens.
After 60 years of marriage, the owner passed away in 2008 followed by his wife in 2012. The house was left to their daughter who listed it for sale, but due to the house's size and location, finding a buyer proved difficult. Recently, the House of Rock has been purchased and the new owner plans to renovate in the coming weeks.

@anikin, no, it's an all or none as I understand it.
@'f00, Nice idea, I have passed your request into his system, using centre-click for m2 and right-click for m3.
EDIT: he loves the idea, it will appear soon, maybe I shall hold off building his next test one until it appears, however 700 does still need testing to confirm the screen resizing problem has finally gone!
EDIT2: he loved it that much it's already done, as 702, I shall build and test tonight and all being well replace 700 with 702 tomorrow for further testing before updating the release build in a week if no problems ocurr!

Understood. I'm not going to pass judgement on Joe's decisions.
Scsijon, this thread is a testing platform for JWM, if I get it right. Here's a graet idea, pursuant to my previous post. Can we expand the testing to see how JWM works if compiled without support for menu icons? Something, that hasn't been done yet? This will definitely put extra load on you to produce an additional compilation, but will also be of benifit to the community. Although, I must confess, I'm driven by a selfish interest here. An iconless menu can be done manually, and I've done it:
The result I would like to see in the compilation is a clean iconless menu, and at the same time, retain the possibility to have icons in the tray and desktop. Could be a tediuos process, but as
put it: "Likely it would run a bit leaner." And what can be a better reward for a user, than a "bit leaner" running puppy?

I did a compile with --disable-icons.
It gets rid of menu icons, and tray buttons. (they are missing on the screenshot on the left of the tray - I had installed Mick's pet).
'Swallowed' apps remain.
Desktop icons are part of the Rox pinboard.

I'm speechless. And impressed.
Looks like the "correct" layout for a WM in a distro built to run from RAM and be small and efficient.
Will you share it?

I just did it to see what happened with icons disabled. Unfortunately the current version will not compile with '--disable-icons', so I used an earlier one.
These are the errors I get after running make:

I have to admit that as much as I love my icons that sure is a handsome screenshot there of JWM Keef! Very impressive indeed! Thanks for sharing that shot, but as for myself I'll pass on the exe itself as I'm one - unlike anikin - who
have his icons if the WM calls for it by default. lol.
I suppose that's kind of odd though just the same seeing that I prefer my Flux/Openbox in their "natural state" to begin with.
Again Keef, thanks for sharing!

@anikin, it's both a testing platform and at suitable stages an 'internal release' as is v691. Major releases come in steps like 2.0 2.1, 2.2 with 2.2 being the current major release but that's a year old now and a lot has happened since. I don't expect another major release until joe has decided it is time to stop for a while.
@keef, you can get rid of the swallowed apps by commenting the section that sets them up near the top of the /root/.jwmc-tray config file
I will have a look at building an iconless jwm, it shouldn't be that hard to sort out, and would have a name something like jwm2-iconless-702-w5c. Although i'm not sure there would be much saving as icons are called as wanted, not within jwm on the desktop.
Anyway I had best get 702 built and tested and out there.
EDIT: no 702 hasn't given the desired result.
EDIT2: --disable-icons problem confirmed and added into the jwm problems list for attention as it's not a simple configure change to fix it as I had hoped.

Post subject: JWM keybindings focus
I don't know if this is a bug or just the way JWM focuses on things:
If I open a window and then minimize it, JWM keybindings will not work until I unminimize said window or open a new window.
So, say I right-click the minimized window in the tray and close it... then keybindings won't work until I open another application.
- Intel Pentium 4 2.40GHz, 571MB RAM, ATI Radeon 7000. Linux Mint 17 Qiana installed.
- Pentium 3 533MHz, 385MB RAM, ATI Rage 128 Pro ULTRA TF. Precise Puppy 5.7.1 Retro full install.

Don't think that should happen, I will put a problem in the system for it.
EDIT: I will receive a new version today to test.
@Keef: It should include a fix for the --disable-icons, already fixed we think, but I'm reluctant to download and test two versions on the same day.
It should be out for wider testing tomorrow, if not tonight.
@all: There will be two test versions out from the next time:
a) jwm2-70x-w5c - being a standard package; and,
b) jwm2-noicons-70x-w5c - being built without icon support.
If they work they will both be released, but they do need testing first by a number of people, so please spread the request.
EDIT: 704 tested with both versions and requests now ok, but another problem has reared it's head so I won't release the result yet, less I confuse folks.
It seems to have speeded up a little bit again too, I can't look away to see what's next now before the next window has appeared and is running.

Subject description: a few observations
window control via..
1) window menu or tasklist-button menu - this seems to be the most robust
2) kybd - less robust
3) titlebar buttons - even less than kybd sometimes, mostly with multifunction like min-m3 shade
..this is with
xcompmgr -n
loaded, in normal use controls are all fine for me
kybd control..
Only 'standard' kybd binds (those in template) show in the ui. Possibility of conflict with custom binds in *personal - example A+F4 is standard for close, C+q in my personal .. they
do the job unless I comment-out or change the bind in the template.
layer conflict possible?
window and tray are 'above', which one takes precedence? Personally I almost never have this happen (windows 'normal' and trays on autohide popup 'above' when hovered).
virtual desktops
Took me awhile to get that jwm uses 'discreet' desktops (rather than the viewport or even combined model used in some other wms like enlightenment and fvwm). That's why windows can't 'span' desktops .. also why a window can almost 'disappear' if you move it with the kybd to an offscreen position (dragging the titlebar or Alt+m1 limits that effect). With small screens (netbooks and such) this can be somewhat of a minor issue with windows that are larger than the screen size.
Pleased that Joe is implementing more multifunction on titlebar buttons

Keef, or anyone who knows,
I'm taking baby steps in compiling, trying to make an iconless JWM. Following to the letter Joe's instructions, everything goes OK, no errors. "make install" as a final command - where do I go from there? Nothing seems to get installed.

Subject description: compiling in situ
Hmm, as I recall there are options to a) make a dotpet as part of the process (see the
) or b) install to a different path (such as /myjwm dir - perhaps even set it up beforehand with appropriate subdirs and the compiled dirs&files should all go there) .. this
be a bit easier than wondering "Did it install?" and/or checking the propsheets for datetimes, etc
Congratulations on error-free compilation

What options did you add to 'configure'?
If you just did
./configure --disable-icons
..then jwm would be installed to /usr/local/bin (I think that is what it defaults to).
Your current jwm is likely to be in /usr/bin
Type 'which jwm' to check.
What I usually do is to go into the 'src' directory where the newly compiled jwm binary should be, and rename it to jwm-test or something.
Copy it to /usr/bin/
Exit X
Type 'xwin jwm-test' and see what happens.
If it fails (ie you don't get to a desktop), you can type 'xwin jwm' and get back to where you started.
First, you could check if the new jwm got installed to /usr/local/bin.
If it is there, try renaming it as above, then exit X etc...
You can also run 'strip jwm' to reduce the size. It is not necessary, but if you are concerned that the new jwm is much bigger, that is the solution.

Post subject: Taskbar scrolling issue
Does anyone have any other 'sensible' enhancement requests while we have his attention?
Hesitate to ask, (Joe helped me with the 'noshade' option), but scrolling on the taskbar, if you have popups on the tray, launches many copies of the item scrolled on.
Older fumble fingers do this often, as well as switching desktops. Then I get 'my screen is full of junk' or 'my browser (etc.) disappeared' calls.
My workaround is to only have one desktop & no popups other than the menu, but that excludes some of JWMs nice functions.

Post subject: Building your own JWM
For anyone wanting to build their own Jwm.
BE AWARE that versions 702 to 704 have other problems relating to "the black screen of death" and "backgrounds" so be careful!
I am awaiting a reply for joe from barryk as I have been asked a question I cannot answer, it needs his level of knowledge.
EDIT: Just had a reply from barryk and passed it onto joe, suspect we will have a new build soon to test.
building your own jwm : myway
a) Download a version of jwm from [url]http://joewing.net/projects/jwm/snapshots/[/url] the latest is at the bottom of the list.
b)unpack it in the directory you intend building it in.
c)Rename the directory created by the unpack to puppy standard by adding a '2' after the jwm so we know it's a series2 jwm (jwm2-xxx) and not an old series1.
a) Open a terminal console and go to the directory you unpacked the jwm into.
b) Go into the jwm directory created when you unpacked it.
c) ./configure CFLAGS="-mtune=native -O2 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer" CXXFLAGS="${CFLAGS}" --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc/xdg/templates --localstatedir=/var
: add --disable-icons to the end if you want to build an iconless version
: look back and see if any errors have appeared thet you need to add another package for before starting the configure again. You may need to reboot before restarting if you have added a package, as some packages need to load on startup.
a) type 'make' and let it run.
: look back and see if any errors have appeared thet you need to add another package for or rebuild.
:at this point I usually go into the directory and delete /etc as mick's jwmconfig2 package contains what we need for puppy and we do not need joe's generic config file!
a) type new2dir make install
: does two things, create a new directory that can be 'pet'd'
: the new2dir is the front end that creates a package suitable to build a pet, while the "make install" installs the build into your system, ***but with no removal path*** .
: By habbit, I usually break out at the last step and use my Pet Maker version 2.2 to finish, but there is no reason why the internal builder should not be used for such a simple package.
and for Anakin, the previous version that is 'good' has other problems, I shall look back and see what the previous 'stable' one was befor the gliphs appeared and let you know.
Have fun.

Each day's message begins with a quotation--from such exceptional women as Agatha Christie, Annie Dillard, Beverly Sils, Helen Keller, Maria Montesori, Adrienne Rich, Katherine Hepurne, Amelia Earhart, and many more-- and ends with an affirmation, marshaling the feminine courage and spirit, wisdom and wit that make every day count.

Madonna is calling for an end to her feud with Elton John -- dedicating one of her songs to Sir Elton during a recent concert in France ... and saying she forgives him for calling her a "fairground stripper."
It all went down Tuesday night in Nice -- Madonna dedicated her song "Masterpiece" to Elton, saying, "I know he's a big fan of it. And I know he's a big fan of mine. And you know? I forgive him. Gotta start somewhere."
In case you didn't know, Elton said Madonna "looks like a f***ing fairground stripper" earlier this month in an interview -- adding, "She's such a nightmare ... Her tour has been a disaster and it couldn't have happened to a bigger c***."
But Madonna's dedication might have been backhanded -- because "Masterpiece" is the song that beat out Elton John's "Hello Hello" for Best Original Song at the Golden Globes in January.
Elton was pissed -- and his husband David Furnish famously blasted Madonna after the GG win, calling her "desperate" and saying her acceptance speech "was embarrassing in its narcissism."
But now, Madonna wants to let bygones be bygones ... or does she?
