Origin and History of the Ents
including an Investigation of the Proposal that Ents are Maiar
and their Relation to the Trolls
by Lalaith <firstname.lastname@example.com>
The History
The Ages of The Trees
No one knew whence they (Ents) came or first appeared. The High Elves said that the Valar did not mention them in the 'Music'.
" (
) Also, their own traditions sharply distinguish the Ents (and Entwives) from the other Speaking Peoples by that they attributed their origin not to the design of the gods but to another species. "
Elves began it, of course, waking trees up and teaching them to speak, and learning their tree-talk. They always wished to talk to everything, the old Elves did.
" (
) So Treebeard recalls the earliest history of the Shepherds of the Trees. Later records say that "
they were known to the Eldar in ancient days, and to the Eldar indeed the Ents ascribed not their own language but the desire for speech.
" (
However, very probably we should rather read "Quendi" here than "Eldar", for the memory of the Ents seems to begin only in the time when Morgoth, known to them as "the Great Darkness", was imprisoned and then "came in the North" (
, i. e. established himself in Angband. Of his earlier dwelling in Utumno even their oldest member, Treebeard, does not reveal knowledge. But during this period there were no Eldar in Middle-earth. If the Ents awoke in the Ages of the Trees and during Morgoths imprisonment, the "
Elves that cured us of dumbness long ago
" (
would have been Umanyar, those who stayed behind. Then the most likely candidates are probably the Nandor, the Green-Elves. They were reported to have gained deeper knowledge of trees than any other of their kind (
. Their activity may not even have been restricted to trees: perhaps those Elves "who always wished to talk to everything" were also responsible for the "awakening" of various beasts which became capable of rational speech. The Ents, however, were distinct from these: together with Elves, Dwarves, and Men, they were afterwards reckoned as species of rational creatures. An old poem which Treebeard had learned in his youth by whom he does not tell: the Nandor most likely - lists the Free Peoples, maybe in their apparent order of appearance: "
Learn now the lore of Living Creatures!
First name the four, the Free Peoples:
Eldest of all, the elf-children;
Dwarf the delver, dark are his houses;
Ent the earthborn, old as mountains;
Man the mortal, master of horses.
" (
This would further limit their awakening to the period before Mans awakening in the East. Their place of origin, however, was not in far Rhun but seems to have been West of Anduin. This was the region where the Entwives first "
made gardens to live in
" (
. We may perhaps expect the awakening to have occurred in the precise region which later was called Fangorn Forest which in that time, however, "
was all one wood ... to the Mountains of Lune.
" (
The First Age
The first Ents that walked in the woods before the Darkness
" (
were "
not quite the same
" as those of the Third Age: "
less wise, less strong, shyer and more uncommunicable (their own language simpler, but their knowledge of other tongues very small)
" (
. Slowly they started to grow and multiply, and to become more aware of their world. Young generations were born: They gave birth to little Ent children, or
. In the First Age of the Sun, "
when the Darkness came in the North, the Entwives crossed the Great River, and made new gardens, and tilled new fields.
" (
The male Ents migrated and expanded westwards from the places of their origin until they found Beleriand where some solemnly walked in Dorthonion and Nan-Tathren. The history of the Elder Days mentions them only once: An Ent-host crossed the Mountains of Lune to assist Beren who "
intercepted a dwarf-army that had descended from the mountains, sacked the realm of Doriath and slain King Thingol ... It seems clear that Beren, who had no army, received the aid of the Ents - and that would not make for love between Ents and Dwarves.
" (
The Second Age
In early SA, the doom of these ancient beings grew nearer. "
After the Darkness was overthrown the land of the Entwives blossomed richly, and their fields were full of corn. Many [pre-Numenórean] men learned the crafts of the Entwives and honoured them greatly; but we [Ents] were only a legend to them, a secret in the heart of the forest.
" (
(see also
"The Indigenous Population of Middle-earth"
)But then, after the Downfall of Numenor, the Entwives "
disappeared for good, being destroyed with their gardens in the War of the Last Alliance (Second Age 3429-3441) when Sauron pursued a scorched earth policy and burned their land against the advance of the Allies down the Anduin ... They survived only in the 'agriculture' transmitted to Men (and Hobbits). Some, of course, may have fled east, or even have become enslaved: tyrants ... must have an economic and agricultural background to their soldiers and metal-workers. If any survived so, they would indeed be far estranged from the Ents, and any rapprochement would be difficult - unless experience of industrialized and militarized agriculture had made them a little more anarchic. I hope so. I don't know.
" (
Treebeard was despaired after crossing the Anduin and finding the gardens of the Entwives "
wasted: Men call them the Brown Lands now. ... it was all burnt and uprooted, for war had passed over it. But the Entwives were not there.
" (
Their loss roused the Ents more than any event after till their march against Isengard; but what their response was we do not know. Perhaps they took revenge and had a part in deciding "the wars of Sauron and the Men of the Sea" (
as Treebeard remembered the War of the Last Alliance. It was then reported that members of almost any species of Arda fought on both sides (
. But whether that happened is not recorded in any account.
The Third Age
During the Third Age the now solitary Ents started to dwindle and become "tree-ish" (
. In late TA, there was only a small number left. After the overthrow of Sauron, King Elessar granted them "
room to spare west of the mountains, where once you walked long ago
" (
. Treebeard, however, remained sceptical that Ents had a future in Arda.
The Origin
The Eldest and the Firstborn
The statements about origin and age of the Ents are mysterious. Of course, no one would doubt that the Elves are indeed Iluvatars "Firstborn", and they would have to be so to "cure" the Ents from dumbness. But why then are the Ents notoriously called "
the most ancient people surviving in the Third Age
" (
and "
oldest of living creatures
" (
? This can only interpreted that way that there were Ents before there were talking Ents. The first specimen probably were but mute and "dumb" or yet "unawakened" beings, looking and behaving just like another kind of tree. But of course, they were not ordinary trees. It cannot be doubted that Elves cannot just pass along and teach a tree at the wayside to talk and move, not to mention turning a forest into another Free People! There must have been an inherent potential of rational thought to the proto-Ents which only Iluvatar could have given to them and which was but waiting for the outside impulse to get active. Lothlórien recorded a unique hypothesis of their origin: "
Some (Galadriel) were [of the] opinion that when Yavanna discovered the mercy of Eru to Aulë in the matter of the Dwarves, she besought Eru (through Manwë) asking him to give life to things made of living things not stone, and that the Ents were either souls sent to inhabit trees, or else that slowly took the likeness of trees owing to their inborn love of trees. ... The males were devoted to Oromë, but the Wives to Yavanna.
" (
If this was true, it would set real Ents far apart from "talking beasts", animate but soulless. No doubt, those spirits were sent before the Elves awoke but had to lie dormant till their proper time, so not to turn down the intended order in which the Children of Iluvatar would appear. This had not been allowed even to Aules Dwarves!
Are Ents Maiar?
Based of this statement it was often suggested that Ents were in fact Maiar. But there is much which speaks against. First, there is the usage of words. "Soul" in the sources is usually a crude translation of Elvish
, a kind of spirit very much distinct from a
. Maiar are very much above: Would it have been possible for even the greatest Child of Iluvatar to cure but one Maia from dumbness? The Wise of Middle-earth indeed believed or hoped that the "
Ents and their wives being rational creatures would find some 'earthly paradise' until the end of this world: beyond which the wisdom neither of Elves nor Ents could see. Though maybe they shared the hope of Aragorn that they were 'not bound for ever to the circles of the world and beyond them is more than memory.'
" (
Galadriel seemed to have known or sensed even more: Her farewell to Treebeard "
until the lands that lie under the wave are lifted up again. Then in the willow-meads of Tasarinan we may meet in the Spring
" (
indicates her belief or conviction that Ents - like Elves and Men (and Dwarves) - might possess an immortal component. However, a Child of Iluvatar derobed from his
or body becomes a free
but certainly not an Ainu! Second. The entish language is a further indication against them being Maiar. Real Maiar probably would not have bothered about developing any since they already possessed one: Valarin or a descendant thereof. Yet "
the language they had made was unlike all others
" (
, even Elves had a hard time to learn "
their tree-talk
" if at all. The few examples of Entish recorded from hearing indeed do not resemble any other spoken in Middle-earth, least of all Valarin. Third: After the initial impulse of awakening was given to the Ents, they were capable of (consciously or unconsciously) awakening more trees. "
Most of the trees [in Fangorn] are just trees, of course; but many are half awake. Some are quite wide awake, and a few are, well, ah, well, getting
. That is going on all the time.
" (
Treebeard also remarks that "
some of my trees are limb-lithe, and many can talk to me" (
. Among those he had known "some good old willows down the Entwash
". When he approaches Wellinghall, Merry and Pippin witness two unidentified trees capable of motion: they "
lifted up their branches, and all their leaves quivered and rustled.
" However, those secondarily awakened trees were classified as
, not as new Ents. Evidently, many trees, though not any tree, had the potential to do so: trees that seemed to be half awake or "quite wide" are also to be met in the Old Forest, notably Old Man Willow, (
and in Mirkwood (
. Without Entings they still were doomed to extinction and with them the Huorns, for apparently no other species had any more the power to awaken them. By the late Third Age even the youngest Ent was already over 3000 years old. The surprising notion that the awakening of trees was not a one-time event but a permanent process is the strongest argument against the "Elves are Maiar" hypothesis. If all awakened trees harboured a Maia within that would have required a constant influx of Ainur from Valinor or outside of Aman to Middle-earth many of which never again were awakened! An unlikely proposal. It may be assumed that Huorns rather resembled the talking beasts and thus were distinct from Ents by lacking the soul or
. But what should we make then out of the "spirit" (
that inhabited Old Man Willow?
Ents and Trolls
Unfortunately, at the end of the Third Age there was no one left to ask, unless anyone would bother to inquire Tom Bombadil perhaps. That being who - aside of their awakeners - seems to have known most about Ents was none other but Morgoth the Enemy. His investigations finally allowed him to create or construct a physically strong, though simple-minded, being: "
only counterfeits, made by the Enemy in the Great Darkness, in mockery of Ents, as orcs were of Elves.
" (
These horrid creatures were known as Trolls. "
In their beginning far back in the twilight of the Elder Days, these were creatures of dull and lumpish nature and had no more language than beasts. But Sauron had made use of them, teaching them what little they could learn, and increasing their wits with wickedness.
" (
Treebeard thought little of them: He stayed convinced that "
We are stronger than Trolls.
" (
How Trolls came to be is not better known than the origin of the Ents. Clearly, their relationship to stone is very strong, they were evidently made out of it and "
return to mere stone images when not in the dark.
" (
. But also clearly, while Morgoth may have captured Elves and twisted them into orcs, Morgoth did not capture trees and twist them to become stones. A remarkable notion in that context may be that "
Ents had mastery
over stone
" (
and therefore probably a troll was no match to them. A confirmation that stone, like trees, may become "awakened" comes from an unexpected side: the Watchers of Cirith Ungol. They, while being immobile, certainly displayed a mental activity, though at a level not higher than those of the lowest trolls. A similar origin may therefore be assumed for the stone-trolls. They were just like further talking beasts: soulless and animate only, perhaps only the product of a failed attempt by Morgoth to strengthen the very stone against the Ents' "mastery". Trolls stayed caricatures, simple-minded, primitive, "of dull and lumpish nature". Which suggests a completely different origin from the linear but sometimes surprisingly cunning orcs.
The Olog-hai
However, "
there are other sorts of Trolls beside these rather ridiculous, if brutal, Stone-trolls, for which other origins are suggested.
" (
This probably refers to the Olog-hai, a ferocious kind that was first time met in the War of the Ring (
. But kind of origin may that have been? Was Sauron even that late still powerful enough to attract other Maiar to his service? Did he, being the Necromancer, manage to imprison
into stone which Morgoth never achieved, thus turning it finally resistant against the sunlight? Or there is left one terrifying possibility, that perhaps has the highest probability of all, but, if true, would pose one of the Dark Lords worst crimes in the history of Arda. Were the Olog-hai like the orcs twisted out of other creatures? The Olog-hai appeared 3000 years after the mysterious vanishing of the Entwives. Could an Olog be what becomes of an Entwive after millenia of twisting?

The community thinks...
SE V6 is smooth. by kwap on 05/11/2012. Trim: 2012 Toyota Camry SE V6, Owned less than 1 year.
Pros: Fantastic motor, it feels effortless and with a combined(city and highway) reduction of only 3 mpg it was a no-brainer decision to get the SE V6. Another factor which pushed me to the SE V6 were some of the other features that are standard with the V6 but are costly options on the 4cy SE like the display audio with Nav/entune, smart key system, SofTex powered driver's seat with lumbar, acoustic windshield and also the great 18" wheels which are only available with the V6. The redesigned interior is very nice, a huge improvement over the previous model and nicer than the competition.
Cons: The Navigation system locks out many features while the car is moving which is so aggravating as to inspire many four letter words directed towards Toyota. Seriously, this is unacceptable; hopefully a hacker out there can do away with this "feature" very soon. At a very minimum, tie the Nav system to the passenger seat occupancy sensor such that the Nav system would fully operate when a passenger is in the car. The display audio system software is adequate at best. It needs some work regarding usability, hopefully software updates are forthcoming. No upper rear seat AC/Heat vents on the SE model. The tires that come with the 18" wheels are a touring tire which is odd.
Overall review: Overall impression, the SE V6 is the best in the segment at the price at the moment. Maybe the new fusion and accord will have something to say about that, we will see. After considering the Kia Optima(nicest looking), Hyundai Sonata(ghastly looking), Passat TDI(very intriguing), and Fusion(too bad I was not getting a car next year) I found that the Camry SE V6 provided the best of the bunch. Suggested Improvements: Lower windows with key fob(like the accord) Crisper handling. The 18" wheels should come with an all-season performance tire not a touring tire. See above regarding the Nav/Entune system. The usual, make the car lighter, faster, and more efficient.

A two-horse race for US smartphone market
Platforms from Google and Apple continue to gain subscribers at the expense of smaller rivals.
Google's (GOOG) Android platform continued to gain smartphone market share in the U.S. in 2012, according to the results from a recent comScore survey.
Android now owns 50.1% of the market, up from 46.9% a year earlier. Even Apple's (AAPL) iOS operating system saw market share increase to 30.2% from 28.7%, primarily due to continued high sales of the iPhone 4S.
The race is now clearly a two-horse one, with other rival smartphone systems losing share in the same period. Research In Motion's (RIMM) BlackBerry share declined nearly 3.2% and Microsoft's (MSFT) Windows Phone and Windows Mobile combined market share fell by 1.3%. (Microsoft owns and publishes Top Stocks, an MSN Money site.)
Mobile advertising accounts for around a third of Google's total value. Google is betting on Android to drive mobile ad revenue in the coming years as smartphone and tablet penetration increases, and advertisers increasingly use the mobile advertising route to reach potential customers. Since Google, ironically, generates higher average advertising revenue from iOS devices, it benefits from an increase in mobile internet usage driven by higher sales of iOS devices as well as Android devices.
We currently have a $670 Trefis price estimate for Google, which stands nearly 4% above its market price.

Rihanna's father will give Chris Brown a second chance
Rihanna's father has said Chris Brown deserves ''a second chance'' despite still being on supervised probation after violently attacking her in 2009.
Rihanna's father thinks Chris Brown deserves a second chance.
The 24-year-old star was violently attacked by the singer in 2009, but father Ronald Fenty has given his blessing after they recently got back together.
He said: ''Chris made a mistake ... a terrible one. But I'm a great believer that everybody deserves a second chance and Chris is no different.''
The on/off couple have recently been getting close again after much speculation and they look to have reconciled.
According to the Sunday Mirror newspaper, Ronald has said if Rihanna's happy, he is too, and even suggested Chris, 23, has ''always been very polite'' to him.
He added: ''Everybody goes wrong in life. I certainly have. But it is about how you come back and live your life which is important.
''And as long as she is happy then so am I. Everybody has had their say about her and Chris but it is up to her to find her own way.
''Chris has always been very polite and kind to me, and treated me with respect. That's all you can ask for from your daughter's boyfriend.''
Rihanna recently confirmed the reunion and said she can ''handle'' the backlash for taking him back.
She said: ''I decided it was more important for me to be happy, and I wasn't going to let anybody's opinion get in the way of that. Even if it's a mistake, it's my mistake. After being tormented for so many years, being angry and dark, I'd rather just live my truth and take the backlash. I can handle it.''

Comments about Smart Destinations :
Located @ the Hollywood & Highland center the Dolby Theatre created to host the Oscars does not disappoint. Once again our GO Cards were easily scanned. We ascended the stairs just like the stars do (great photo ops). We were then greeted by our friendly and knowledgeable tour guide who escorted us into the main lobby. Sadly we were informed no pictures allowed though at the end they did give us each a great picture postcard. The tour included a lot a anecdotes and of course real behind the scenes touring. Walking onto center stage just as the winners do was quite a thrill. We were told that this year the Oscars was delayed because of the Olympics. The Olympics they stated is the most watched televised event in the world. The Oscars however are the second most viewed programming in the world and they take place every year! For the two weeks leading up to the show the Dolby theatre is closed. So plan accordingly not to be disappointed. Note that you are indeed in the heart of Hollywood when visiting there. Lots to see and do.
Save even more with these pre-built discount packages that include Dolby Theatre® Guided Tour bundled with other great Los Angeles attractions.

Discursive Metaphors Analysis: The Love Metaphor of Plant in Chinese Love Poetry
A conceptual metaphor may have various meanings in different languages, and usually contains cultural background. Based on cognitive approach, this paper aims to study Chinese metaphor through analyzing four conceptual metaphors of four typical plants in traditional Chinese poetry. This article also discusses why these ancient metaphors can still be used commonly in modern Chinese language. At the same time, through analyzing these metaphors, relevant implicating Chinese cultural aspects are described.

Thanksgiving is tomorrow. While many parents will be giving thanks for their kids, one mother will be thanking a jury.
Kenya Mire sat through most of Jessica Tata's trial, but was not able to attend her punishment phase because of work. Kenya said it would have given her more peace.
"I was hoping that I was able to say some last things to her to give me more closure," she said.
She said she wanted to let Tata know her 10-year-old asks about his little sister and often sends her balloons with sweet notes.
It's a new lifestyle since that fatal fire almost two years ago.
"She was getting ready to start potty training and saying words and sentences," she said.
Her baby, Kendyll, was only 20 months when she was killed in a daycare fire. Three other children also died.
Prosecutors said Tata was supposed to be watching the toddlers. Instead, she went shopping, leaving oil in a pan on a hot stove.
"All I remember was just seeing the doctor pump on Kendyll's chest and she was just lifeless," Kenya said.
She said that day destroyed her life and shattered her dreams. While it has been extremely difficult, she is moving forward and hoping one day she will find the strength to forgive Tata.
"I pray every day that one day I will forgive her for this, but you know the disappointment in her facial expressions, that it's completely nonchalant the whole time, it just makes me question, is there any type of remorse?"
She said she has filed a civil suit.
Since this case only named one of the four victims, it is possible Tata could face more charges and more time in jail.

- modify behavior of "-X" option so it does not cause preprocessor lines to
be written to the output. Preprocessor lines are needed for lint-library
text, but are inconsistent with other uses of cproto (patch by Kenneth
- add configure option "--enable-llib", which allows one to configure cproto
without support for lint-library "llib" files. Since the "-X" option shares
the include-file tracking, this option can also be enabled (or disabled)
(discussion with Kenneth Pronovici, Bob Van der Poel).
- require an ANSI C compiler for building.
- updated configure script, using autoconf 2.52 + patch, along with macros from

2003/04/05 (4.7a)
- add definition of YYFLAG, to enable the error-reporting code with bison 1.875
- add definition of YYSTYPE, to allow this to build with recent (aka "broken")
versions of bison (Debian #166140, Lukas Geyer <email@example.com>).
- add gcc-specific __builtin_va_arg keyword (Debian #175862, Kenneth Pronovici
- modify syntax.c to change token after "#endif" to a comment, thereby avoiding
deprecation warning from gcc 3.2, which would cause "make check" to show
unexpected results.
- resync with version 4.7 at http://cproto.sourceforge.net/
- add gcc-specific __builtin_va_list keyword.
2002/02/25 (4.6e)
- correct length allocated for filename in include_file(), which was not big
enough if the $CPROTO environment variable was corrupted. From report by
<firstname.lastname@example.com>, using sharefuzz:
- update configure.in to generate config.h directly using autoconf patch from
- remove makefile rules that attempt to recreate the configure script. As
demonstrated in numerous packages, it always reflects poor design.
- remove makefile rules to make shar files (comp.sources.misc is long gone).
- stop using changequote(), workaround for bugs in autoconf 2.5x
2000/11/09 (4.7)
- Report source file and line number in error messages in gcc-style format.
2000/08/10 (4.6d)
- use newer versions of mkdirs.sh and install.sh
- regenerate configure script with autoconf 2.13
- restructure aclocal.m4
- modify Makefile.in to allow $(bindir) and $(mandir) to be altered
independently of $(prefix) and $(exec_prefix) (patch by Carsten Leonhardt
2000/07/08 (4.6c)
- add a clause to handle "__extension__" before extern declarations.
(report by Bob van der Poel <firstname.lastname@example.com>)
1999/12/27 (4.6b)
- correct check for size of vec[] array in yaccExpected(), broken in 4.6a
(report by Wolfgang Wander)
- add keywords "restrict", "_Bool", "_Complex", "_Imaginary" based on c9x
- add keywords "__restrict__" and "__restrict", for gcc.
(report by Wolfgang Wander <firstname.lastname@example.com>)
1999/12/14 (4.6a)
- change vec[] array in yaccExpected() to be dynamically allocated. It was a
fixed-size (10 entries) array before. Also fix problem reported by Wolfgang
Wander <email@example.com>, which is that if the array were empty, it was passed
to qsort() with a zero-size, causing a core dump.
- add to syntax.c & corresponding test-cases the typedef/identifier example.
- allow identifiers to be the same as typedef names, handle this case:
typedef int badStyle;
void badFunc(int *badStyle) { }
(reported by Paul Haas <email@example.com>)
- add '__extension__' keyword
1998/01/21 (4.6)
- Since cproto is no longer being distributed on USENET in shar file format,
the patchlev.h and MANIFEST files have been removed.
The patchlevel number has been removed from the version number.
- Moved files out of the porting directory into separate platform specific
directories. The emx directory has files used to compile using EMX.
The os2 directory has files used to compile on OS/2 using Watcom C/C++.
The win32 directory has files to compile on Windows 95 and Windows NT
using Watcom C/C++.
- correct order of include-path to keep standard include (e.g., /usr/include)
at the end of the search list.
- modified lint-library include-stack recovery to work on OSF/1.
- supply default initializer for lint-library const data
- corrected reset of __attribute__((noreturn))
- added '__volatile', '__const__', '__inline' keywords to grammar to
accommodate gcc.
- modified configure script to add several development/debugging options (i.e.,
--with-trace, --with-dbmalloc, --with-dmalloc).
- modified ifdefs to avoid using predefined 'unix' (not defined on AIX or CLIX)
1996/04/15 (Patchlevel 5)
- corrected instance of fclose on a file pointer after pclose was done (found
with Electric Fence).
- corrected script make_bat.sh to prevent expansion of \n in argument-string.
- Modified handling of lint library option to allow generation of lint libraries
for ANSI compilers (set -a -l).
- corrected a missing 'void' in parameter list
- modified to allow compile/test with 'dmalloc' library in addition to
- corrected memory leak in yyerror.c, and allocation-size for cpp command.
- added keywords to work with gcc 2.7.0
- corrected unresolved references to flush_varargs() when OPT_LINTLIBRARY
is not defined
1995/08/24 (Patchlevel 4)
- Added -S option to only output static declarations.
- Fix: The configure script didn't replace @CFLAGS@, @CPPFLAGS@ and @LDFLAGS@
in the makefile generated from makefile.in.
- Fix: The -a option generated incorrect function definitions.
- update test-cases for the -f2 fix in patch 3.
- remove dependency on GNU-make from makefile.in
- corrected configuration script that tests whether yyerror can be extended
(had cached wrong flag, preventing some configurations from being
- added calls for 'flush_varargs()' to correct situation in lint-library output
where VARARGS comments were not reset properly when a function
was skipped.
- improved the logic of 'strip_name()' (used to compute include-directives for
the lint-library option) so that it recognizes the conventional include
directory created by a GCC install.
1995/01/06 (Patchlevel 3)
- check for a special case in lint-library generation, i.e., prototype
arguments of the form "*()", which need more parentheses for SunOS's lint.
- modified configure.in, aclocal.m4, makefile.in to work with autoconf 2.1
(also added install.sh - note that "install-sh" is not an MS-DOS-compatible
- derive the program name from the argv[0] entry, in case it's installed
under a different name.
- Fix: The -f2 option generated incorrect prototypes for functions that
take a variable argument list.
- use 'sed' rather than 'flip' to apply trailing CR's to MS-DOS scripts.
1994/10/26 (Patchlevel 2)
- modified grammar to recognize C++ ref-variables (i.e., '&' as a prefix to
identifiers at the top lexical level). Lint libraries are formatted without
this '&', since lint doesn't grok C++. This corrects an error in cproto 4.0
which caused '&' characters to be suppressed altogether, e.g., when filtering
with the "-t" option.
- modified rules that generate MANIFEST to put auto-generated scripts there
also, if they've been created (e.g., cd testing; make scripts).
- modified makefile.in to have shar target for both GNU shar and Rick Salz's
cshar utility.
- use 'const' in yyerror.c, otherwise the error-reporting auto-configuration
does not work.
- don't use "#elif" preprocessor control; not all systems support it.
1994/10/25 (Patchlevel 1)
- Added testing scripts for MS-DOS and VMS.
- Added makefile for Borland C++ for OS/2.
- Fix: When the -a, -t or -b options were used, '&' characters were stripped
from the output files.
- Fix: The system.h file should define EXIT_SUCCESS and EXIT_FAILURE
regardless of the presence of <stdlib.h>.
1994/09/24 (Patchlevel 0, dickey)
- corrected two malloc-defects in lint library generation (one place where
generated parameter name was copied rather than allocated, and another memory
- corrected generation of lint library function body, to handle function
- changed the implicit lint library function type from "" to "void", to avoid
special-cases in the function-body generation.
- added logic using 'NestedParams' to suppress prototype-arguments in lint
library function-pointer arguments.
- corrected lint-library function parameter derived from prototype "char [2]"
(parameter name wasn't supplied).
- added PRINTFLIKE and SCANFLIKE to the comments interpreted for the lint
library translation.
- modified "LINT_PREPRO" comment to pass-thru all comment text if no count is
- added new comment keyword "LINT_SHADOWED" to generate "#undef symbol" before
each function template in lint libraries (useful for processing files that
define both macros and functions with the same names).
- interpret GCC's __attribute__ noreturn and format for lint-library text
(GCC 2.5.8 preprocessor passes these macros through, GCC 2.6 apparently does
- treat carriage-return (^M) as whitespace where appropriate.
- added configuration-test to avoid conflict with prototype for 'popen()'
- added several function-pointer regression test-cases
Version 3
1994/08/31 (Patchlevel 9, dickey)
- use 'autoconf' to make a UNIX configure-script.
- recognize GCC extensions '__inline' and '__attribute__'
- added ifdef OPT_LINTLIBRARY to allow compiling without the lint library
code (saves about 4kb).
- corrected some logic that made incorrect commenting for options -c -f1
(e.g., "void (*Sigdisp(int sig, void (*func)(int sig)))(int sig)").
- corrected logic that macroizes (e.g., with P_) functions like 'Sigdisp'
(it wasn't doing anything about the trailing "(int sig)").
- corrected handling of K&R conversion of mixed-mode functions (K&R style
with prototypes in arguments) to avoid losing comments.
- modified logic for options -c -f2 so that cproto inserts a space before
the beginning of a comment when it immediately follows an '*'.
- enhanced error reporting with new module yyerror.c which (attempts to)
report the expected token type/name when a syntax error is encountered.
- modified the grammar.y file to try to recover from errors at the next
semicolon (as well as the next right curly bracket).
- modified to process lex/yacc files with gcc as C-preprocessor.
- Added option "-O" to force redirection of errors without shell operations
(useful for VAX/VMS and MS-DOS in particular).
- added "\s" as a synonym for space in the format options (-P, -F, -C)
- tested on Solaris with lex/yacc and flex 2.4.6 / bison 1.22
(SunOS explorer 5.3 Generic_101318-42 sun4m sparc; gcc 2.6.0)
- tested on SunOS 4.1.1 with lex/yacc and flex 2.4.6 / bison 1.22
(SunOS calvin 4.1.1 1 sun4c)
- tested on IRIX with lex/yacc
(IRIX dbs3 5.2 02282015 IP19 mips)
- tested on Linux 0.99.15 with lex/yacc and flex 2.4.6 / bison 1.22 / byacc 1.9
- tested on MS-DOS with flex 2.37 / byacc 1.9 (built with turboc.mak).
(Bison uses too much stack space).
- tested on VAX/VMS 6.1 with VAX-C 3.2 and flex 2.4.6 / bison 1.22.
- moved non-UNIX files into 'porting' subdirectory.
- added 'testing' subdirectory, for simple regression tests.
- tested for memory leaks with dbmalloc (on Linux).
1993/06/09 (Patchlevel 8, internal: dickey/cthuang)
- added files 'lintlibs.c' and 'strkey.c'
- Allow dollar signs in identifiers
- Defined FAIL, SUCCESS to use in 'exit()' calls (VMS is approximately the
reverse of UNIX).
- Added option "-o" to force redirection without shell operations (useful for
VAX/VMS in particular).
- Added options "-l" (lintlibrary format), "-T" (typedefs), "-x" (externs
in include-files).
- Added "-C" option to cpp-invocation (to support VARARGS-decoding for -l
- Modified grammar.y so that if -T option is turned on, instances of untagged
struct, union or enum are shown with the contents of the curly braces.
- Modified lex.l so that it sets 'return_val' iff at least one return statement
within curly braces returns an expression. Use this to support -l option.
- Modified semantic.c (for -l option) to put tabs after short names for better
readability. Also (only -l option), put a blank line before function
definitions and typedefs.
- Corrected lex.l so that it recognizes preprocessor lines within curly braces.
- Modified 'gen_prototype()' to trim 'extern' and 'auto' keywords from the text
(so that 'extern' is emitted in this function only if the -e option is
specified). Do this to support -l option (and to correct normal usage, which
implies that -e option is needed to put an 'extern' before declaration).
- Corrected test in 'put_decl_spec()' by using 'strkey()' (which tests for a
name, not simply a substring).
- Modified semantic.c to use 'put_string()' and related procedures to simplify
pretty-printing of lint-library text (mainly to control blank lines). (See
- linted some xmalloc calls using ALLOC macro.
1993/06/01 (Patchlevel 7, cthuang)
- Fix: The processing of string literals is now more robust.
- Removed the -f4 option which generated prototypes like
int main P_((int argc, char **argv));
Use the -m option now to put a guard macro around the prototype
parameter list. Use the -m option together with -f3 (which is the
default) to produce the same output as the old -f4 option. The option
to set the guard macro name is now -M.
- Comments in prototype parameter lists are now disabled by default.
Use the -c option now to output these comments.
- Can now process #include directives in which the file is specified with
a #define macro.
- Now does not convert function definitions that take the formal
parameter va_alist from <varargs.h>.
- Now recognizes the GNU C modifiers __const and __inline__.
Patchlevel 6
- Fix: A function in lex.l exploited the ANSI C feature of concatenating
string literals. This prevented the module from being compiled with
pre-ANSI C compilers.
Patchlevel 5
- Fix: The -v option did not output declarations for function pointers.
- Fix: String literals continued over more than one line messed up the
line number count.
- Fix: The program generated incorrect prototypes for functions that
take a variable argument list using <varargs.h>.
- Fix: When converting functions from the standard input, cproto
generated no output if no functions needed to be converted.
- Fix: Now does not output a warning if an untagged struct is found in a
typedef declaration.
- Added the -b option which rewrites function definition heads to
include both old style and new style declarations separated by a
conditional compilation directive. For example, the program can
#ifdef ANSI_FUNC
main (int argc, char *argv[])
main (argc, argv)
int argc;
char *argv[]
Added the -B option to set the preprocessor directive that appears at
the beginning of such definitions.
- Added the keyword "interrupt" to the set of type qualifiers when
compiled on a UNIX system.
- The MS-DOS version now recognizes the type modifiers introduced by
Microsoft C/C++ 7.00.
- Now recognizes ANSI C trigraphs (yuck!).
- Now use "#if __STDC__" instead of "#if defined(__STDC__)".
- GNU bison orders the y.tab.c sections differently than yacc, which
resulted in references to variables before they were declared. The
grammar specification was modified to also be compatible with bison.
Patchlevel 4
- Fix: A typedef name defined as a pointer to char, short or float was
incorrectly promoted if it was used to specify a formal parameter.
For example, for the definition
typedef char *caddr_t;
int strlen (s)
caddr_t s;
cproto generated the incorrect prototype
int strlen(int s);
- Added implementation of the ANSI function tmpfile() for systems that
don't have it.
- If compiled with Microsoft C, cproto preprocesses its input by running
the command "cl /E". To eliminate the error messages when the file
<malloc.h> is included, the program now recognizes the specifier
Patchlevel 3
- Fix: The program didn't generate prototypes for functions defined with
the extern specifier.
- Fix: The -c option didn't output a space before parameter names in
generated prototypes.
- Added the -E option to specify a particular C preprocessor to run or
to stop the program from running the C preprocessor.
- Added the -q option to stop the program from outputting error messages
when it cannot read the file specified in an #include directive.
- Made the yacc specification compatible with UNIX SYSVR4 yacc.
Patchlevel 2
- Fix: The function definition conversion may produce a mangled function
definition if an #include directive appears before the function and
no comments appear between the directive and the function.
- Fix: The size of the buffer allocated for the C preprocessor command
string did not include enough space for options set in the environment
variable CPROTO.
- Replaced the -n option with -c which disables all comments in the
generated prototypes.
- Replaced the enum's with #define constants to accommodate C compilers
that don't like enumerators in constant expressions.
Patchlevel 1
- Fix: The program was calling ftell() on an invalid FILE pointer.
Patchlevel 0
- Added options to convert function definitions between the old style
and ANSI C style.
- Options can be specified from the environment variable CPROTO.
- The MS-DOS version recognizes more Microsoft C and Borland C++ type
modifiers (such as _cdecl, _far, _near).
- Fix: Formal parameters specified with typedef names were not promoted.
For example, for the definition
typedef unsigned short ushort;
void test (x)
ushort x;
cproto generated the incorrect prototype
void test(ushort x);
while the correct one is
void test(int x);
- Fix: Incorrect prototypes were generated for functions that returned
function pointers. For example, cproto generated an incorrect
prototype for the function definition
void (*signal(int x, void (*func)(int y)))(int z)
- Fix: Changed calls to memory allocation functions to abort the program
if they fail.
Version 2
Patchlevel 3
- Made cproto compatible with GNU flex.
- After compiling with the preprocessor symbol TURBO_CPP defined, on
MS-DOS systems, cproto will pipe its input through the Turbo C
- Fix: Typedef names may now be omitted from typedef declarations.
For example, every C compiler I tried accepts
typedef int;
and some even give warnings when encountering this statement.
Patchlevel 2
- Cproto is now able to generate prototypes for functions defined in lex
and yacc source files named on the command line. Lex and yacc source
files are recognized by the .l or .y extension.
- Fix: The memory allocated to the typedef symbol table was not being
freed after scanning each source file.
- Fix: Failure to reset a variable during error recovery caused
segmentation faults.
Patchlevel 1
- Fix: Cproto incorrectly generated the parameter "int ..." in
prototypes of functions taking variable parameters.
- Fix: Function definitions can now be followed by an optional
semicolon. I found this feature in every C compiler I tried.
Patchlevel 0
- Added formal parameter promotion.
- Added prototype style that surrounds prototypes with a guard macro.
- Handles C++ style comment //.
- Nifty new way to set prototype output format.
- Got rid of the shell wrapper used to pipe the input through the C
preprocessor (cpp).
- For the port to MS-DOS, I modified cproto to run without cpp, but
since I didn't want to reimplement cpp, the program processes only the
#include and #define directives and ignores all others. Macro names
defined by the #define directive are treated like typedef names if
they appear in declaration specifiers.
Version 1
Patchlevel 3
- Fix: identical typedef names and struct tags should be allowed.
For example:
typedef struct egg_salad egg_salad;
struct egg_salad {
int mayo;
void dine(egg_salad l)
Patchlevel 2
- Fix: A typedef statement should allow a list of typedefs to be declared.
typedef int a, *b;
- Fix: When run with the -v option on this input, cproto did not output
a declaration for variable "b":
char *a="one"; char *b="two";
- The options were renamed. Added new options that change the output
format of the prototypes.
Patchlevel 1
- Fix: Incorrect prototypes were produced for functions that take
function pointer parameters or return a function pointer. For example,
cproto produced an erroneous prototype for this function definition:
(*signal (sig, func))()
int sig;
void (*func)();
/* stuff */
- The lexical analyser now uses LEX. It should still be compatible with

I see the future looking back on these times as if we were insane and I ask you of the future what would you do in my time. What would you do when the whole world seems to not understand. All a man can do is smile :) and know the future when we all realize we are nuts is close at hand.

MILWAUKEE, WI (WTAQ) - A Wauwatosa man has been freed, after prosecutors said they needed more time to investigate his alleged involvement in last Sunday's Potawatomi Casino shooting.
The Milwaukee County district attorney's office was ready to have 27-year-old Gregory Harmon released on Wednesday – but he was still being held on a prior warrant for an unrelated theft case.
He was wanted since May of last year for allegedly borrowing a girlfriend's car and not returning it.
Harmon appeared in court on that charge this week, and was freed on a signature bond.
On Wednesday, a court commissioner will decide if there's enough evidence to try him for theft.
The DA's office says it's not sure when it could decide on charges in the casino shooting.
WISN in Milwaukee reports Harmon was arrested after what police say he got into a fight with his girlfriend and he shot her. But witnesses say Harmon was fighting with another man in the casino.

A D.C. native, Asad "Ultra" Walker is an artists whose background in graffiti and street art inspires his work. His current show "quiet walks in dangerous places" will be at the Fridge in Eastern Market until Oct. 28
What appeals to you about graffiti?
I think graffiti is more of a school of art and in a way, it's kind of a way of thinking about what you're doing. I think a lot of graffiti artists are kind of self-taught and assimilate a lot of what they see both in graffiti and pop culture and commercial. Graffiti artists take all the rules and keep what they like and throw the rest out the window.
How does the District inspire your art?
It's been a long process. I've lived here in the area almost my whole life. At one time, graffiti wasn't very art friendly. There wasn't really the kind of art scene that there is now and slowly that kind of developed and I think D.C. is a lot friendlier to art now. I hope that I've kind of grown up with it.
How would you compare D.C.'s street art scene to other bigger cities?
My impression is that we're a lot tighter and we get along. Almost all the artists, one way or another know each other and I really feel like it's much more friendly here.
What is the premise of your new show "quiet walks in dangerous places?"
It's all portraits and people I know from D.C. It's my kind of reference to graffiti ... being out at 4 or 5 in the morning, going into bad neighborhoods and seeing things. Sometimes I see beautiful things or something crazy so I kind of took that kind of mind set toward painting. I took a lot of people I know that are D.C. people and had an image in my head and poses and how I wanted them to look.

Several converging initiatives now require teacher and principal evaluation data be collected from all LEAs (districts and charters) in order to comply with a new federal reporting requirement. In order to meet this new requirement, the ADE has enhanced the Highly Qualified Teacher Input Application (HQTIA) system to collect evaluation data for all teachers and principals in the state. LEAs will be required to submit evaluation data through the HQTIA system for SY 2010-2011 beginning November 7, 2011 and completed no later than January 13, 2012.
LEAs were first notified of this new requirement in a letter to Superintendents/Charter Representatives dated September 6, 2011 (see link below). Additional details and instructions can be found in the Principal and Teacher Evaluation Reporting for School Year 2010-2011 letter (see link below) sent to LEAs on October 31, 2011.

Reroofing with EPDM Rubber, Images 15-24
The roofers pull the EPDM tight and tack it in place, leaving it long enough to ensure that water flows into — rather than behind — the gutter.
The roof edge is protected with a gutter apron. Glue is applied to the apron.
Glue is applied to the seam tape. Although the tape is self-adhering, the author uses glue as an extra precaution.
The seam tape is pressed into place with a rubber roller. Although the tape is self-adhering, the author uses glue as an extra precaution.
The author seals pipe penetrations with PVC donuts. First the donut is cut in half to fit around the pipe.
It's glued to the roof with a pourable sealant.
Sealant is also used to fill the center.
Pourable sealant
The cured sealant stays flexible over time so it can adapt to movement in the roof without losing its seal.
At the outer edge of the roof, we folded the membrane over, pulled it tight, and tacked it temporarily into place with roofing nails. Then we nailed down a length of gutter apron (a type of drip edge). We applied a transparent glue called Dewitt Pro Primer Activator - which is a bit thicker than paint - to the surface of the apron, then covered it with seam tape, using a hard rubber roller to press the tape into place. (The seam tape is self-adhesive, but we always add glue anyway, as an extra precaution.) We also used seam tape and glue to seal around the exhaust vent on the wall.
The biggest potential for a leak on this roof surface was around the gas-pipe penetration. In the past, this area would have been detailed with seam tape and roofing cement - an imperfect solution that seldom lasts the life of the roof. Today, however, there's an easier and more effective way: a PVC donut, available from roofing suppliers. The donut is usually thought of as a commercial product, but it's great for residential jobs, too.
We cut the donut in half so that it would fit around the pipe, then glued the two halves to the roof and to each other with 1-Part Pourable Penetration Sealant, a caulk-like material that comes in a bag. Then we filled the donut with the sealant. A big advantage of this product is that the sealant doesn't dry completely hard - it retains some flexibility so it can adapt to movement in the roof.
Reroofing with EPDM Rubber, Images 25-27
A pressure-treated deck ledger supports the inboard end of the new joists.
The deck ledger is flashed with Ice & Water Shield.
The original decking and railing were reinstalled to complete the roofing job.
After completing the rubber roof, we turned our attention to the deck. We bolted the ledger to the house, flashing it with Grace Ice & Water Shield. We then installed a triple 2x10 girder at the outer edge of the roof, supporting it with metal hangers on the walls at each end and stiffening it in the middle with a single block. To protect the finished roof surface, we placed a piece of scrap roofing - folded over itself three or four times - between the roof and the block.
With the girder and ledger in place, we installed the 2x8 joists in hangers, then flashed the wall ledger with aluminum - a critical step, since the peel-and-stick membrane is meant to serve only as a backup watershed. We extended the metal flashing 5 inches horizontally past the face of the ledger, to help keep water off the joist hangers.
The final step was to re-install the old railing and Trex decking. Once we'd trimmed the base of the wall, there was no way to tell that decking had been replaced - except, of course, that the roof no longer leaked.
The job - including interior water-damage repairs - cost about $8,900. It took two to three workers approximately two weeks from start to finish: one day for demolition; one day to install the new roofing; three to four days for the interior carpentry and painting; and two to three days to build the outside ledger, decking, and handrail and do all the exterior painting.

Making Cognitive Connections® for individuals living with brain injury and other cognitive challenges
The purpose of the Making Cognitive Connections (formerly PDA 4 Memory) project is to provide training materials for individuals living with brain injuries and other cognitive challenges. Training relates to the use of a smart mobile device (such as a iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch, or Android device) as a memory and cognitive prosthetic device. The training materials include books, videos, and quick reference guides designed with the specific needs of those living with brain injury and other cognitive challenges in mind.
We use the PDA/smartphone training, applied in particular to memory compensation techniques, as a relevant, real-life activity. Not only do we teach how to use the device, but we also provide structured exercises to help make cognitive connections between what you are learning to do with the PDA and your life. So we are simultaneously providing general cognitive stimulation, attempting to build specific new neural pathways, preparing you to apply what you are learning to real life, and teaching you a highly effective memory compensation strategy.

Making Cognitive Connections
The principals of ID 4 the Web have worked in the field of cognitive remediation for well over 20 years and have designed online curriculum for Web design and accessibility for over 15 years. Our current projects integrate this expertise in cognitive remediation and instructional design, leading to a training approach that we call Making Cognitive Connections. This approach teaches the fundamental technical skills necessary to operate a PDA, smartphone, or similar device while simultaneously drawing a parallel to the cognitive skills that underlie the development of those technical skills. Focusing on the cognitive skills required to use the device—and then having the users apply those same cognitive skills to their everyday lives—makes this approach practical, concrete, relevant, and transferable.
Each of the cognitive skills mentioned below (and many others) are integrated as a common thread throughout the training materials to create the cognitive connections:
- Attention to Detail
- Memory
- Visual Memory
- Sequencing
- Categorization
- Following Directions
- Time Management
Unlike a typical memory workbook or smart mobile device manual, which many users find frustrating and technical, our training material is much more than a reference source; it is consciously structured to be a learning tool for those with cognitive challenges. For each smart device function, users will:
- Learn about what it is and how to do it;
- Follow steps to perform that function on the device;
- Make the cognitive connections by learning what cognitive skills are being used to perform the task; and
- Identify real-life examples from outside the realm of the device which require use of the same cognitive skills.

How Did the Making Cognitive Connections Project Get Started?
The Making Cognitive Connections project evolved out of working with students from the Coastline Community College Acquired Brain Injury Program who suffered from severe memory deficits. The students successfully learned to use the PDA as a memory/cognitive prosthetic. We soon found the PDA training could open up opportunities for students to work on a wide array of other cognitive skills. Given students' natural interest in memory, we realized there is no better context for cognitive retraining than within memory compensation training itself, especially if we provide a cognitive connection to their own real-life experience.

Song made ONLY out of Terminator 2 sounds
This is a song made up entirely of sounds from Terminator 2. My question is...how does somebody have time to do this? Are they making money off it? Cause if not....how can you justify spending all this time putting something like this together? I barely have time to put the laundry away after folding it and leaving in on the couch for a week...how can someone spend so much time on something like this? How many days did you have to take off work at Radio Shack to do finish?

5 CFR 1201.58 - Closing the record.
prev | next
(a) When there is a hearing, the record ordinarily will close at the conclusion of the hearing. When the judge allows the parties to submit argument, briefs, or documents previously identified for introduction into evidence, however, the record will remain open for as much time as the judge grants for that purpose.
(b) If the appellant waives the right to a hearing, the record will close on the date the judge sets as the final date for the receipt or filing of submissions of the parties.
(1) The party submitting it shows that the evidence or argument was not readily available before the record closed; or
(2) It is in rebuttal to new evidence or argument submitted by the other party just before the record closed.
(d) The judge will include in the record any supplemental citations received from the parties or approved corrections of the transcript, if one has been prepared.
