This is up there with the classic Matt Stone memo:
"Take Jesus Christ Out, If Possible"
This is up there with the classic Matt Stone memo:
It's a paradox: Shouldn't the most accomplished be well equipped to make choices that maximize life satisfaction?
There are three things, once one's basic needs are satisfied, that academic literature points to as the ingredients for happiness: having meaningful social relationships, being good at whatever it is one spends one's days doing, and having the freedom to make life decisions independently.
But research into happiness has also yielded something a little less obvious: Being better educated, richer, or more accomplished doesn't do much to predict whether someone will be happy. In fact, it might mean someone is less likely to be satisfied with life.
That second finding is the puzzle that Raj Raghunathan, a professor of marketing at The University of Texas at Austin's McCombs School of Business, tries to make sense of in his recent book, If You're So Smart, Why Aren't You Happy? Raghunathan's writing does fall under the category of self-help (with all of the pep talks and progress worksheets that that entails), but his commitment to scientific research serves as ballast for the genre's more glib tendencies.
...isn't something that can be done on campus. It's an internship.
When I was 17, if you asked me how I planned on getting a job in the future, I think I would have said: Get into the right college. When I was 18, if you asked me the same question, I would have said: Get into the right classes. When I was 19: Get good grades.
But when employers recently named the most important elements in hiring a recent graduate, college reputation, GPA, and courses finished at the bottom of the list. At the top, according to the Chronicle of Higher Education, were experiences outside of academics: Internships, jobs, volunteering, and extracurriculars.
What Employers Want
"When employers do hire from college, the evidence suggests that academic skills are not their primary concern," says Peter Cappelli, a Wharton professor and the author of a new paper on job skills. "Work experience is the crucial attribute that employers want even for students who have yet to work full-time."
Nearly half of Americans would have trouble finding $400 to pay for an emergency. I'm one of them.
Since 2013, the Federal Reserve Board has conducted a survey to "monitor the financial and economic status of American consumers." Most of the data in the latest survey, frankly, are less than earth-shattering: 49 percent of part-time workers would prefer to work more hours at their current wage; 29 percent of Americans expect to earn a higher income in the coming year; 43 percent of homeowners who have owned their home for at least a year believe its value has increased. But the answer to one question was astonishing. The Fed asked respondents how they would pay for a $400 emergency. The answer: 47 percent of respondents said that either they would cover the expense by borrowing or selling something, or they would not be able to come up with the $400 at all. Four hundred dollars! Who knew?
The president's unique approach to the White House Correspondents' Dinner will surely be missed.
No U.S. President has been a better comedian than Barack Obama. It's really that simple.
Now that doesn't mean that some modern-day presidents couldn't tell a joke. John F. Kennedy, Ronald Reagan, and Bill Clinton excelled at it. But Obama has transformed the way presidents use comedy—not just engaging in self-deprecation or playfully teasing his rivals, but turning his barbed wit on his opponents.
He puts that approach on display every year at the White House Correspondents' Dinner. This annual tradition, which began in 1921 when 50 journalists (all men) gathered in Washington D.C., has become a showcase for each president's comedy chops. Some presidents have been bad, some have been good. Obama has been the best. He's truly the killer comedian in chief.
Two scholars discuss the ups and downs of life as a right-leaning professor.
"I don't think I can say it too strongly, but literally it just changed my life," said a scholar, about reading the work of Ayn Rand. "It was like this awakening for me."
Different versions of this comment appear throughout Jon A. Shields and Joshua M. Dunn Sr.'s book on conservative professors, Passing on the Right, usually about people like Milton Friedman and John Stuart Mill and Friedrich Hayek. The scholars they interviewed speak in a dreamy way about these nerdy celebrities, perhaps imagining an alternate academic universe—one where social scientists can be freely conservative.
The assumption that most college campuses lean left is so widespread in American culture that it has almost become a caricature: intellectuals in thick-rimmed glasses preaching Marxism on idyllic grassy quads; students protesting minor infractions against political correctness; raging professors trying to prove that God is, in fact, dead. Studies about professors' political beliefs and voting behavior suggest this assumption is at least somewhat correct. But Shields and Dunn set out to investigate a more nuanced question: For the minority of professors who are cultural and political conservatives, what's life actually like?
A professor of cognitive science argues that the world is nothing like the one we experience through our senses.
As we go about our daily lives, we tend to assume that our perceptions—sights, sounds, textures, tastes—are an accurate portrayal of the real world. Sure, when we stop and think about it—or when we find ourselves fooled by a perceptual illusion—we realize with a jolt that what we perceive is never the world directly, but rather our brain's best guess at what that world is like, a kind of internal simulation of an external reality. Still, we bank on the fact that our simulation is a reasonably decent one. If it wasn't, wouldn't evolution have weeded us out by now? The true reality might be forever beyond our reach, but surely our senses give us at least an inkling of what it's really like.
"A typical person is more than five times as likely to die in an extinction event as in a car crash," says a new report.
Nuclear war. Climate change. Pandemics that kill tens of millions.
These are the most viable threats to globally organized civilization. They're the stuff of nightmares and blockbusters—but unlike sea monsters or zombie viruses, they're real, part of the calculus that political leaders consider everyday. And according to a new report from the U.K.-based Global Challenges Foundation, they're much more likely than we might think.
In its annual report on "global catastrophic risk," the nonprofit debuted a startling statistic: Across the span of their lives, the average American is more than five times likelier to die during a human-extinction event than in a car crash.
Partly that's because the average person will probably not die in an automobile accident. Every year, one in 9,395 people die in a crash; that translates to about a 0.01 percent chance per year. But that chance compounds over the course of a lifetime. At life-long scales, one in 120 Americans die in an accident.
After the successful Allied invasions of western France, Germany gathered reserve forces and launched a massive counter-offensive in the Ardennes, which collapsed by January. At the same time, Soviet forces were closing in from the east, invading Poland and East Prussia. By March, Western Allied forces were crossing the Rhine River, capturing hundreds of thousands of troops from Germany's Army Group B. The Red Army had meanwhile entered Austria, and both fronts quickly approached Berlin. Strategic bombing campaigns by Allied aircraft were pounding German territory, sometimes destroying entire cities in a night. In the first several months of 1945, Germany put up a fierce defense, but rapidly lost territory, ran out of supplies, and exhausted its options. In April, Allied forces pushed through the German defensive line in Italy. East met West on the River Elbe on April 25, 1945, when Soviet and American troops met near Torgau, Germany. Then came the end of the Third Reich, as the Soviets took Berlin, Adolf Hitler committed suicide on April 30, and Germany surrendered unconditionally on all fronts on May 8 (May 7 on the Western Front). Hitler's planned "Thousand-Year Reich" lasted only 12 incredibly destructive years. (This entry is Part 17 of a weekly
Why thyroid diseases are so common—and still so mysterious
When I first suspected I was suffering from hypothyroidism, I did what any anxious, Internet-connected person would do and Googled "dysfunctional thyroid symptoms," and, in another tab, "hypothyroid thinning hair??" for good measure.
What came up sounded like someone describing me for an intimately detailed police sketch:
This, combined with the fact that a close family member had recently been diagnosed with a thyroid disorder, sent me scurrying to the nearest endocrinologist's office. They took a blood test, and two weeks later the results came back. Sure enough, the doctor said solemnly, I had hypothyroidism, which meant my thyroid was under-active. She would be starting me on thyroid medication. She couldn't know for sure, but I might have to take drugs for the rest of my life.
The U.S. president talks through his hardest decisions about America's role in the world.
Friday, August 30, 2013, the day the feckless Barack Obama brought to a premature end America's reign as the world's sole indispensable superpower—or, alternatively, the day the sagacious Barack Obama peered into the Middle Eastern abyss and stepped back from the consuming void—began with a thundering speech given on Obama's behalf by his secretary of state, John Kerry, in Washington, D.C. The subject of Kerry's uncharacteristically Churchillian remarks, delivered in the Treaty Room at the State Department, was the gassing of civilians by the president of Syria, Bashar al-Assad.
From a moral standpoint, it makes the world worse.

Drug War Crimes
Recorded: Thursday, May 6, 2004
Each year, the U.S. government spends over $30 billion on the drug war and arrests more than 1.5 million people on drug-related charges. Currently more than 318,000 people are behind bars in the U.S. for drug violationsmore than the number of people incarcer-ated for all crimes in the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Italy, and Spain combined. Have current drug laws deterred drug abuse and reduced crime? What are the real costs of this countrys war on drugs? Is there a link between the homicide rate and the amount of resources given to drug prohibition? Please join us as Boston University economist Jeffrey Miron (author of the major new book, Drug War Crimes) and former San Jose police chief, Joseph McNamara, examine these questions and explore real alternatives to Americas War on Drugs.
Jeffrey A. Miron
Boston University Professor of Economics and author of the new book, Drug War Crimes: The Consequences of Prohibition. His articles on Drug Policy have appeared in Social Research, Boston Globe and the London Observer. He received his Ph. D. in economics from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
Joseph D. McNamara
Research Fellow, Hoover Institution. Former Chief of Police, San Jose, CA and Kansas City, MO. He has published articles in the New York Times, the Los Angeles Times, the Wall Street Journal, the Washington Post, and other publications. He has been a commentator for NPR and has appeared on Meet the Press, Good Morning America, Sixty Minutes, and other programs.
Ethan A. Nadelmann

The Drug War on Trial: Two Judges Speak Out
Recorded: Wednesday, September 5, 2001
Drug abuse is a serious problem, but the "War on Drugs" shows no sign of being won and has come with a heavy price tag. Critics say that its side effects- increased taxes, increased crime and corruption here and abroad, loss of civil liberties, decreased health, prison overcrowding, discrimination against African Americans and other groups, and the diversion of resources away from other problems- are even worse for society than the drugs themselves. Many public officials share this sentiment but fear political reprisals if they speak out. However, Judges James Gray and Vaughn Walker, having witnessed the Drug War up close, believe that the time has come to testify publicly about its ill effects- and to outline bold, new approaches to the drug problem.

Guns and Violent Crime
Recorded: Tuesday, September 21, 1999
With the recent school massacre in Littleton, Colorado; the shootings of Jewish children in Los Angeles; and rampant drive-by shootings and other atrocities, what can and should be done to protect the innocent against violence in American society? Can government protect the citizenry against gun-related violence? What is the record of individual self-defense against violence in Britain and the U.S.? In this very timely Independent Policy Forum, acclaimed historian Joyce Lee Malcolm and civil rights attorney Don Kates will examine gun laws, violence, and rights.

Violent crime continues to be a major social and economic problem in the United States and around the world. This important debate, held before an audience of 1,000 at Washburn University, features a panel of experts from diverse backgrounds and perspectives, including criminal justice officials, business and civic leaders, scholars, and best-selling authors.
In a lively and challenging exchange of ideas, the program addresses why the criminal justice system has become increasingly bureaucratized and politicized, ever less responsive and ever more costly. Topics include victims rights, crime and incarceration rates, restitution, civil liberties, illicit drugs, guns, racism, policing, privatization, and sentencing.
Co-sponsored by The Independent Institute and Koch Crime Commission, this program was distributed by Central Educational Network and appeared on the Public Broadcasting System.

Post 2:Are You Sitting Comfortably?
The following things need to done to get started, but only once…
Download the palette and install it.
(Located at bottom of this post in the attachment section)
The City-Map-Colors.gpl file should go into C:\Documents and Settings\<User Name>\.gimp-<version>\palette\ and GIMP will see it the next time it is run. These are the colours available in the palette:
The top row shows the grass and forest colours, along with a gradient from the lightest of these to the darkest.
The second row shows the dirt and rock colours as well as the gradient.
The third row shows the water colours and the gradient. (The light one is used for the coastline and rivers.)
The bottom row has colours for roads, 50% grey (used a lot when making overlay masks), a coastline stroke colour, and a label colour. All of these are available in the palette. Or use your own. Just keep roughly the same number of colours. Keeping the Colour set small makes the map look consistent, and will make all your maps look similar.
Set up the GIMP windows.
When you start GIMP, you will notice that unlike most Windows application, the dialogs and images all float in their own windows. This can be a pain until you get used to it. The first thing to do is make sure the dialogs you need will be available.
If the dialogs that came up when you started GIMP did not have all these:
For convenience, you will want them set up this way. You can add new dialogs (called Docks) by going from the main GIMP window, File->Dialogs->Create New Dock->Layers, Channels & Paths and File->Dialogs->Create New Dock->Brushes, Patterns & Gradients.
There are a couple more useful dialogs to have available as well.
Select File->Dialogs->Histogram to bring up the image histogram.
Select the Palette tab in the Brushes, Patterns and Gradients dialog and click the Edit Palette button.
These two new dialogs can be attached to the existing docs by dragging their titles to where you want them. I like the Palette editor to be a tab on the Brushes, Patterns & Gradients Dock, and the Histogram to be stuck below the tab group, so it is always open. This is the GIMP layout that will be used throughout the tutorial:

Hunters play an important role in caring for and managing wildlife. Every time an individual buys a hunting license, box of ammunition, rifle, shotgun, a bow, or handgun, an excise tax is collected by government and that money is redistributed to states. The Pittman-Robertson Act was enacted in 1937 to collect and redistribute taxes collected to improve wildlife management practices and to educate hunters. Money also comes from private endowments.
Hunters also pay for conservation efforts through fees to conservation organizations such as the National Wild Turkey Federation, Ducks Unlimited, Quail Unlimited, and the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation, to name a few.

Fauna is all of the animal life of any particular region or time. The corresponding term for plants is flora. Fauna is found in many of the GTA games.
Fauna in GTA III Era
In the GTA III Era, the fauna remain generally the same and don't play a very major role in the game. In GTA III and GTA Vice City, Seagulls can be spotted flying overhead, but the seagulls in GTA III are just static props, much like the DeadDodo airplane. In GTA Vice City, seagulls can be shot down with a sniper rifle, but they offer no achievement and are not required for 100% completion.
GTA San Andreas features other birds alongside seagulls; eagles/hawks fly low over the desert and dove-like white birds can be seen flying around rural areas. Also, with the addition of diving underwater in GTA San Andreas, marine life can be spotted, such as schools of fish, jellyfish, dolphins, and sea turtles. These, too, are unsolid, and just static props. The fish are programmed to jump away from the player if he gets too close to them.
One particular named animal in the game is Ken Rosenberg's talking parrot named Tony, which can only be seen in the opening cutscenes for the missions Intensive Care, The Meat Business and Freefall. The bird's role in the game is minor, appearing only a few times as a comic relief when Ken resides in Las Venturas. The parrot utters, among others, Mafia slang terms and foul language, as well as a quote from Tony Montana: "I haven't fucked anybody over in my life who didn't have it coming to them", from the 1983 film Scarface.
The only other animal who is named in the game is Herbie, an astral goat who belongs to The Truth during the events of GTA San Andreas. However, the goat is never seen in any mission or cutscene whatsoever. The Truth claims that he travels around on Herbie and that he has not driven in fifteen years, despite owning a Camper.
In GTA San Andreas, sharks are rumored to be seen very rarely in shallow waters around San Fierro and Los Santos. But no logical evidence has ever been shown to support these claims, and most videos and pictures are just taken from modifications. Also, people may be mistaking dolphins for sharks.
Flies can be seen buzzing around trash piles throughout the state, including in the maintenance closet in the Four Dragons Casino.
In GTA Liberty City Stories and GTA Vice City Stories, seagulls return once again and remain just as they were in GTA III; unsolid props.
Fauna in GTA IV Era
In GTA IV the only fauna are Flying Rats (pigeons). The flying rats will not move from their location, but will coo and peck at the ground. There are 200 flying rats in Liberty City and can be shot, resulting in a puff of feathers and blood. Shooting all 200 Flying Rats unlocks an achievement, an Annihilator on top of a helipad in Star Junction, and is required for 100% completion.
Seagulls once again return in The Lost and Damned and The Ballad of Gay Tony. These seagulls function like Flying Rats; they do not move from their location, and have to be killed to achieve 100% completion. There are 50 seagulls around the city, and can be "collected" by shooting them. In TLAD, collecting all seagulls will unlock an Innovation, both at your safehouse and deliverable by Clay. Killing all Seagulls in TBoGT spawns an APC at Yusuf Amir's construction site. All fifty in TLAD were found by the gaming community within five days of release, before any official information was released.
In the game's ambient city audio, you can hear a dog barking, but there are no dogs in the game.
Fauna in GTA V Era
It is revealed that animals will return in GTA V, and they will play a much greater role in the storyline.
In GTA V, it is revealed that Franklin owns a Rottweiller named Chop. The dog has been seen in pre-release screenshots and in the trailer, but it is not known how big of a role the dog will play in the storyline. Seagulls and other avian species will return in the game, as they are seen multiple times in screenshots and trailers. Also, marine life will be included in the game, like sharks and other fish, with the inclusion of the ability to dive underwater.
It is not known how many other animals will be featured in the game. It is rumored that there will be wildlife in forested areas of the gameworld, but a trailer or screenshot to prove this claim has yet to be released.

This item has been DISCONTINUED and replaced by the 15' long 500110 sensor wire.
The 500802 Sensor wire adds floor sensing capability to the P-3285 DualTemp Thermostat (Patio Heating Only). It is a 10K thermistor design and is 10' Ft long.
No Sensor is included with the P-3285 thermostat - you must purchase this sensor wire to use the P-3285 Thermostat for Patio heating.
Some customers order an extra sensor for 'peace of mind'. Although it is extremely rare for a sensor to fail, they think it is a reasonable precaution to install 2 sensor wires and they consider it cheap insurance.
If you choose to purchase 2 sensors, run both sensors from the Thermostat box to the floor below and then place them between the heating elements 12 inches or more into the heated portion of the floor. You can put them side by side, but connect only one to the thermostat control. If you ever need to replace a faulty sensor, you will have one at your fingertips; simply disconnect one, and connect the back-up.
A spare can come in handy if yours gets lost or damaged during installation.
Each Thermostat Manufacturer uses a different sensor wire.

Looks nice. I'd decrease white outlines thickness though and add a scale, according to your border. Some rep for the first post with a cool map
i like this (though i always had a soft spot for pirate country ). I agree with max though, id decrease the white strok on the words - or better still, change it to a gradient that slowly fades.
My W.I.P Elyden globe map thread - please check it out and let me know what you think

Welcome to the Guild Belizar! White-stroke aside, that is a lovely first map.
Typography is my weak point, but I work on improving my skills
Hi Belizar
Wow, what a map!
I'm a young filmmaker from Switzerland and I've found your work while googling for some maps of the Dominican Republic. Your map is by far the most beautiful one I've stumbled across. Congrats!
At the moment, I'm working on a documentary film about tobacco production in the Domenican Republic. And to visualize the locations of the tobacco fields, I'd love to do a short animation sequence in which the different production sites are highlighted. For this sequence, I'm in need of a nice background map. So please let me ask you if it's possible to use your work for that! That would be amazing. I'd also love to give proper credits and it's even possible to pay you a little bit.
As I've just registered on this site, I'm not able to send you private messages yet (the message system is not yet activated for me). But please reply to this thread in case you're interested in more details about the project.
Best regards from Switzerland.
It appears that the image attachment has broken. It definitely sounds like a nice map though.
Qwaak: feel free to use my map. And if you need english (or other language) description - mail me firstname.lastname@example.com
I re-link images, so map shoud display correctly now.

Ask the Psychiatric Pharmacist #19
What is Tardive dyskinesia?
TD is most commonly associated with the use of antipsychotic medications, such as haloperidol, fluphenazine and thiothixene, but it may also occur after exposure to various other medications such as anti-emetics (metoclopramide, prochlorperazine), antiparkinsons agents (L-dopa) and stimulants (amphetamine). Antipsychotics are commonly used to treat patients with schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, or bipolar disorders. TD can be severe and irreversible, and is associated with high dose and longer use of antipsychotics. Monitoring for TD should be done every 6 months.
Antipsychotic medications are divided into two groups, first generation (FGA) and second generation (SGA). Examples of FGAs include fluphenazine (Prolixin), trifluoperazine (Stelazine), perphenazine (Trilafon), haloperidol (Haldol), and thiothixene (Navane). The SGAs, for example, clozapine (Clozaril), olanzapine (Zyprexa), quetiapine (Seroquel), ziprasidone (Geodon), aripiprazole (Abilify), risperidone (Risperdal) and paliperidone (Invega) are less likely to cause TD than FGAs. TD may improve, partially or completely, if antipsychotic treatment is stopped. However, TD symptoms may never go away even if the medication is stopped. The risk of TD must be weighed against the risk of exacerbation of the mental illness that is being treated.
TD is believed to develop from long periods of antipsychotic treatment in order for it to occur in vulnerable patients. If movements similar to those of TD emerge, it may be tempting for patients to immediately discontinue certain treatments. This is typically not advised since an abrupt discontinuation of medications can also result in an increased intensity of psychiatric symptoms and put such patients at risk for re-hospitalization. It is therefore very important that you work closely with your health care provider. Ask questions about your medications and your concerns about potential side effects, including tardive dyskinesia. Your health care provider is qualified to answer these questions and make the best choice of medications, doses, and duration of use that would take into account your illness, the side effects of medications and how to prevent, monitor or treat these side effects.

Democrat Mike Michaud defeated Republican challenger Kevin Raye to with another term in the U.S. House.
Mike Michaud adresses supporters in East Millinocket after winning a sixth term representing Maine's 2nd District.
AUGUSTA, Maine (AP) _ Democratic U.S. Congressman Mike Michaud has won voters' support for a sixth term representing Maine's 2nd District, defeating Republican Kevin Raye in a rematch.
Michaud is a former paper worker from Millinocket. He benefited in Tuesday's voting from his advantage being the incumbent.
Raye is from Perry and owns a family mustard company. He's finishing a term as state Senate president.
Michaud and Raye squared off a decade ago for what was then an open seat for the district, covering all of Maine except for part of the southern coast.
In this fall's campaign, Michaud tied his working-class roots to policies to protect American jobs and emphasized his support for veterans' causes. Raye highlighted his support for business issues.

Charles and Ray Eames were the two most popular American furniture designers during the 1950's but they were more than just the creative face of mid-century, American modernism. They made a variety of different kinds of films, designed groundbreaking homes, constructed wartime leg splints using plywood, were commissioned to create animated commercials for IBM and much more. Follow this fascinating journey from their humble beginnings at the Michigan-based Cranbrook Academy of Art to the evolution of their successful firm in Los Angeles. Eames: The Architect and the Painter is a dazzling introduction for the lay person and a wonderful celebration of two of the most important artists of the 20th Century for the rabid fans of their coveted chairs.

This is Python version 3.0 alpha 3
For notes specific to this release, see RELNOTES in this directory.
Python 3000 (a.k.a. "Py3k", and released as Python 3.0) is a new version of the language, which is incompatible with the 2.x line of releases. The language is mostly the same, but many details, especially how built-in objects like dictionaries and strings work, have changed considerably, and a lot of deprecated features have finally been removed.
This is an ongoing project; the cleanup isn't expected to be complete until some time in 2008. In particular there are plans to reorganize the standard library namespace.
Release Schedule
The release plan is to have a series of alpha releases in 2007, beta releases in 2008, and a final release in August 2008. The alpha releases are primarily aimed at developers who want a sneak peek at the new langauge, especially those folks who plan to port their code to Python 3000. The hope is that by the time of the final release, many 3rd party packages will already be available in a 3.0-compatible form.
Documentation for Python 3000 is online, updated twice a day:
This is a work in progress; please help improve it!
The design documents for Python 3000 are also online. While the reference documentation is being updated, the PEPs are often the best source of information about new features. Start by reading PEP 3000:
What's New
For an overview of what's new in Python 3000, see Guido van Rossum's blog at artima.com:
We try to eventually have a comprehensive overview of the changes in the "What's New in Python 3.0" document, found at
Please help write it!
What's New Since 3.0a1
Undoubtedly the biggest change is in the bytes type: 'bytes' is now immutable, and there is a new mutable bytes type 'bytearray'. These two types are interoperable in every way. For more info on this issue, read PEP 3137.
For a more detailed change log, read Misc/NEWS (though this file, too, is incomplete, and also doesn't list anything merged in from the 2.6 release under development).
Converting From Python 2.x to 3.0
Python 2.6 (not yet released) will contain features to help locating code that needs to be changed, such as optional warnings when deprecated features are used, and backported versions of certain key Python 3000 features.
A source-to-source translation tool, "2to3", can take care of the mundane task of converting large amounts of source code. It is not a complete solution but is complemented by the deprecation warnings in 2.6. This tool is currently available via the Subversion sandbox:
Issue Tracker and Mailing List
We're soliciting bug reports about all aspects of the language. Fixes are also welcome, preferable in unified diff format. Please use the issue tracker:
If you're not sure whether you're dealing with a bug or a feature, use the mailing list:
To subscribe to the list, use the mailman form:
Build Instructions
On Unix, Linux, BSD, OSX, and Cygwin:
./configure make make test sudo make install # or "make altinstall"
You can pass many options to the configure script; run "./configure --help" to find out more. On OSX and Cygwin, the executable is called python.exe; elsewhere it's just python.
On Mac OS X, if you have configured Python with --enable-framework, you should use "make frameworkinstall" to do the installation. Note that this installs the Python executable in a place that is not normally on your PATH, you may want to set up a symlink in /usr/local/bin.
On Windows, see PCbuild/readme.txt.
If you wish, you can create a subdirectory and invoke configure from there. For example:
mkdir debug cd debug ../configure --with-pydebug make make test
(This will fail if you also built at the top-level directory. You should do a "make clean" at the toplevel first.)
