From Using Lynx in a Graphical WWW:

When Lynx encounters an inline (or floating) frame, it will display IFRAME: [Name_of_Source / Name_of_File]. The name of the source or file will be hyperlinked to the source file, allowing you go there.

That is why. Now stop disagreeing with people in order to look insightful. It takes 3 seconds to Google that shit.

No imagining needed, you can actually find out how fast it is! Available even for Win32.

That's going to be a problem if use lynx... try safari.

...or install lynx or Mosaic :D

It true! Here's a picture! And here she is with her father. Notice how they cleverly composed the image to hide the tips of her ears!

Aside from inevitable aesthetic questions about what "proper" haiku is, there many linguistic reasons to abandon the requirement of 5-7-5 form.

Japanese is a different language than English, and a given metrical structure in one language does not translate well into the other. For this reason, it is often argued that English constructions should actually abandon the traditional Japanese form to maintain equivalence. For one thing, word structure is different in Japanese and English, and 17 syllables in one is not 17 syllables in the other, so to speak.

With all the Haiku posts, I decided to head off to google and see what actually makes Haiku. My feeling was the 5-7-5 plus indication of a season.

Seems that I am slightly wrong. The 5-7-5 syllabal grouping is accepted to be a Japanese convention where those breaks match the structure of that language. In other languages the the 5-7-5 doesn't fit as well, so you seem to be able to do what you want.

Also the Haiku is generally considered to be an expression of direct experience with out attached emotion. So similie, metaphor and anthropomorphism do not see, to be well regarded.

Two links that I just found and read are:
The definition of Haiku by Alexey Andreyev.
Another Attempt To Define Haiku by Jane Reichhold.

Is there another word for synonym??

Read it here, you moron:

2. 5-7-5 syllables in 1st-2nd-3d lines.

Also optional: firstly, even Basho broke that rule. Secondly, we don't write in Japanese -- the average Japanese syllable has different length and bears the different "amount of meaning" as compared to those of other languages; thus "holy 17" can't be saved so formally. When poets write or translate haiku into their language they try to save haiku spirit, and somehow imitate the Japanese form (the length of the lines, the breaks) - but at the same time they take into account the common patterns of their own language so that it sounds natural. This way most of Russian translations of classic Japanese haiku have about 20 syllables; on the other hand, a haiku in English, according to W.Higginson's "The Haiku Handbook", is bet- ter when it's about 12 syllables:

old pond...
a frog leaps in
water's sound

Basho

The reality is slightly more murky than that. One UK litigant successfully obtained a summary judgement in the British courts against a Canadian defendant who was resident in the USA, for on line defamation in a USENET newsgroup. He used this judgement to obtain an advantageous settlement with the defendant's university.

Here are a notice about the lawsuit, a Wired article about some of Godfrey's other suits, and a notice abour Cornell University's settlement with Godfrey. Again, several other cases are mentioned.

Although there did appear to be a question over whether the plaintiff could collect on his default judgement, in fact he appears to have successfully leveraged such judgements to obtain monetary settlements.

I started off as a untrained (dont even have high school) IRC freak on galaxynet and after 9 months joined a local IRC/ISP, started off as a helpdesk operator and was exposed to redhat5.0 (all boxes was running either SCO or linux) and beginner WAN, with time and initiative, i progressed to larger WAN/LAN and later went for CCNA, RHCE & CCNP, i was promoted to manager level but instead choosed to leave in pursuit of my degree ...

Well all these years i found out everything is up to your initiative and the best place to learn is start from a small shop or ISP where linux is prevalent ... you would get bogged down by work but you would learn, of course there's the pay cut you've to take. Of course the other method is to join a major ISP, but the major pitfalls is in such environments what you learnt is limited and you get quickly bored of it.

I've known friends from that environment whom approached me to teach them about boxes and such and major push factors are like rigid work scope, non-departmental transferability which means low scope of internetworking on LAN/WAN.

Now I only wonder if big companies out there would accept your experiences and professional certificates instead of only pure degrees and such, while i'm stuck down under for 2 years to gain this crappy paper which doesn't teach me anything at all ...

I think the US tried a similar plan in Vietnam. It didn't work. There was no way to separate out a particular minority of the people who would be the sole source of enemy support. It was too big a task to try and take on an entire civilian population numbering many millions.

It is also possible that only the British were competent enough to accomplish such a feat. (That same factor might bode ill for the US if it tries to base its strategy on its own version of special forces. It might be better to let the British SAS lead a particularly critical mission such as a direct assault to apprehend Osama Bin Laden.)

There is also no way the rest of the world would stand for similar measures today. It would be the United States that would be accused of establishing concentration camps regardless of what conditions the people were given. The forceful removal of an entire minority population solely based on race to a controlled environment would create a wave of comparisons to prior shameful US events such as the Trail of Tears or the Japanese-American internment during World War II. In four years the rest of the world outside of a few allies would be calling for US leadership to be extradited to the Hague for trial, and internally the US would be at civil war.

A more meaningful comparison as far as a recent historic event would be the decision of Jordan's King Hussein in 1970 to crush the Palestinians, a war that was to become reviled by the Palestinians as "Black September".
