Sinya OkayamaJapanese, born 1941
View Objects By Sinya Okayama >>
Sinya Okayama introduced an advanced postmodern idiom to Japanese design in the 1980s, creating furniture, lighting, and objects that were intended to communicate--sometimes literally--with the consumer. He became known internationally through his participation in the "Phoenix" exhibition at the Queen's Quay Terminal, Toronto, in 1984, and afterward collaborated with Alessandro Mendini, a founder of Italian postmodern design, on two projects, "Sei Mobiletti" (1986) and "7 + 7 Gioielli" (1987). Following an unusual process of design, each remained in his own country, and communicating only by letter, one designed and drew a part of an object and the other completed the design without their meeting to discuss the work. To some extent Okayama's objects all suggest the real object or object type for which they are named, such as his Top of the World shelves (1984), which resemble a snow-covered mountain with its peak in the clouds, and his Condor cupboard (1989), which extends horizontally like the wings of a bird. Certain objects relate directly to their names, such as the shelves and stools he designed in the shape of the Japanese ideograms for the words "celebration" and "wind". From 1961 to 1966 Okayama worked in the design department of the Mitsukoshi department store corporation, but since 1967 he has been a free-lance interior and product designer. Okayama opened his design office in Osaka in 1970, producing his first furniture and lighting fixtures under his own name in 1981. Kathyrn B.

Hello. This may not count as a research question, but I guess it's too much for math.stackexchange.
Could we define ZF (Zermelo-Fraenkel Set theory) in classical first-order predicate calculus, then define classical HOLs(Higher order logics) so that ZF can interpret it (via "inhabits" relation (sets)) and would we get that HOLs are interpretable in FOL?
Does that mean that HOLs do not have more expressive power than FOL in principle?
Thank you in advance.

Herb Alpert Reinvents 'Chattanooga Choo Choo' (Exclusive Song Premiere)
Herb Alpert is well aware that his version of "Chattanooga Choo Choo" is a departure from his usual sound. Premiering today on Speakeasy, the tune is powered by an electronic groove courtesy of producer Randy Badazz, Alpert's nephew, who wasn't sure his uncle would like it.
"But I started playing on it, and it really worked," Alpert says. "It took this funky, electronic sound and put some elegance on it. Great combination."
Alpert, the jazz trumpeter, bandleader and co-founder of A&M Records, probably remains best known for "Whipped Cream and Other Delights," his 1965 album with the Tijuana Brass (not least for the memorable cover art). "Chattanooga Choo Choo" dates even further back: the song was a chart-topping hit for the Glenn Miller Orchestra in 1941. "There's these songs from the past that kind of linger on and pop up every now and then in your memory bank," says Alpert, who in January won a Grammy, his ninth, for best pop instrumental album for his 2013 release "Steppin' Out."

- Hear Shovels & Rope's New Song 'I Know' From Their Upcoming Album 'Little Seeds' (Exclusive)

- Controlled Bleeding Taps Into Old Energy With 'Driving Through Darkness' (Exclusive)
- Listen to Kandace Springs's 'Deep' New Song 'Neither Old Nor Young' (Exclusive)
- Comet Control Cleans Up Its Act With 'Dig Out Your Head' (Exclusive)
The track leads off his upcoming album "In the Mood," which includes versions of "Begin the Beguine," "Let It Be Me," "Spanish Harlem" and "All I Have to Do Is Dream." "I like taking evergreens and seeing if I can do them in a way that's never quite been done before," Alpert says.
His version of "Chattanooga Choo Choo" certainly qualifies, though Alpert sees it as an extension of something he's tried to do throughout his career. "I was never going for the beat of the week," says Alpert, who received a National Medal of the Arts in 2012. "I was always going for that thing that was left of center, that was not quite the way everyone else was doing it."
"In the Mood" is due Sept. 30 on Shout! Factory. What do you think of "Chattanooga Choo Choo?" Leave your thoughts in the comments.

We are intensely excited to announce our brewery's future home… Twin Leaf will be located at 144 Coxe Ave, right on the corner of Coxe and Banks in the South Slope neighborhood of downtown Asheville!
We just entered into a formal agreement with the owner of the building, and we couldn't be happier! We'll be leasing a 5,000 sq ft space that will make a beautiful home for our brewery and taproom.
The brewhouse will occupy about 1,800 sq ft of the building, including our brewing system, tanks, cold storage, yeast lab, plus room to spare. The remainder of the space will house the taproom, which will feature a kick-ass bar, plenty of seating, and a stage for live music. Additionally, we'll have an area for outdoor seating on the north side of the building, so we can all breathe in that beautiful mountain air.
The building, which used to be a photography studio, is utterly fantastic. We love the huge wall of windows on the south side of the building, where our shiny 10 bbl system will sit for all to see. The interior features 20 ft ceilings with these incredible trusses. This place is practically begging for a brewery!
We love this part of town. It's more spread out and open than the rest of downtown, with a little more of a laid back feel. It's easy to get around and park, and it's within walking distance of all the other cool stuff going on in town. And it's really the last section of downtown that's left to be developed.
Seems as though we're not the only ones who have seen the potential of this section of downtown. The South Slope has been getting a lot of attention lately, with a handful of businesses announcing new locations in the neighborhood in recent weeks. We're excited to soon be a part of this growing district!
I can't believe how lucky we were to find this space. For us, it was love at first sight. We can't wait to share it with all you wonderful Asheville beer drinkers. Cheers!

"Zeitgeist" Online Movie: Part One
Posted: August 23, 2007
Last Updated: March 21, 2008
General Introduction:
NOTE: I respond to all of the major claims of Part I of the online film "Zeitgeist" in this critical review. Links to these various claims are located in the column on the right side of this page.
"There is nothing new under the sun." The narrator's methodology is considerably outdated among scholars. The claim that Christianity was influenced by pagan religious beliefs, including astrology, is nothing new. These claims are rooted in the "history of religions school," which emerged in the second half of the nineteenth century. However, by the mid-twentieth century, this method had been greatly refuted—even non-Christian scholars opposed this perspective. I highly recommend that the reader consult chapter 16 of Reinventing Jesus: What the DA VINCI CODE and Other Novel Speculations Don't Tell You (2006) to obtain an understanding of many logical fallacies associated with holding the "history of religions" view. "Some Notes on Alleged Parallels Between Christianity and Pagan Religions, And, A Proof that Winston Churchill Did Not Exist!," by J.P. Holding also provides an excellent overview of this issue.
Yet, atheist web sites and books, along with New Age web sites and books, frequently regurgitate these ideas.
In the case of Part I of "Zeitgeist," the majority of its source material is derived from the New Age author, Acharya S,' book, The Christ Conspiracy. The film's producer even writes the following on the source page for Part I: "Special thanks to Acharya S for her consultation for this section." Acharya S' real name is D.M. Murdock. I will endnote examples of how the narrator draws from material contained in the corresponding pages of The Christ Conspiracy. One can find book reviews of The Christ Conspiracy at Answering Acharya S and at Acharya S: Sample Points. Unfortunately, the narrator rarely quotes from primary sources. An example of a primary source would be samples of ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs, inscriptions on pottery, religious texts, etc. The Christ Conspiracy, however, is a secondary source and Acharya S fails to identify the primary sources that she relies on.
Lastly, just about all of the claims made in Part I have all been addressed by scholars and Christian apologists previously.

The San Antonio Winery and Restaurant is emphatically not a wine bar. But the visitor can belly up to the counter in the wine store and taste three samples for free or pay a fee for three or four reserve wines, depending on the offering of the day. Additionally, there are range of wines for sale from the winery's own label as well as more rarefied partner vintners. Browse the locked cabinet for bottles priced to shock and awe. Naturally, a bought bottle of wine may be taken into the restaurant to be enjoyed with a meal but a pourer in the shop will blanch at the idea of opening a bottle there. Again, this is not a wine bar.
When I let friends know that I was writing a column on wine bars in the Los Angeles area a few suggested covering San Antonio. Its presence is known throughout the region. They advertise far and wide, billboards looming over all of the major freeways. Quite simply, San Antonio gets filed under "places for wine drinking," distinctions for such be damned. But if I measured the tasting room at San Antonio against true wine bars the winery would come out sounding like a cheap gimmick for selling bottles to opportunist drinkers. While the goal is to sell bottles of wine, the tasting room is better considered as a basic place to test the product before committing to a purchase. The discerning drinker is looking for new bottles to add to a collection, not for creature comforts that will help pass a pleasant evening.
Of creature comforts in the tasting room, there are precious few. There is no seating, the counter is a cul-de-sac at one end of the wine shop, and the pourers are typically harried by the large crowds that are the usual clientele during tasting hours. Even politeness from the counter servers comes at a premium, though they are very knowledgeable. Clearly serving the tremendous volume of customers supersedes attempts at a quality drinking experience. Winery tours are also available.
The San Antonio Winery is located at 737 Lamar Street in Los Angeles, just east of downtown. Restaurant & tasting room hours: Mon-Fri 10am-7pm, Sat-Sun 930am-7pm. Tours Mon-Fri 12pm-2, Sat-Sun 11am-4pm. http://www.sanantoniowinery.com/

M8 Mini to be sold as HTC One Mini 2?
It's definitely not a stretch to think that HTC will make a new Mini this year too, to complement the One M8 flagship and act as a successor to the One Mini from 2013. In fact, such a device's existence has been leaked a few times so far.
But what about its name? Will it be simply the new One Mini? Or the One M8 Mini? Or something else?
Well, according to generally reliable @evleaks, it's the latter variant. Rather strangely, the new handset will apparently be marketed as the HTC One Mini 2. Perhaps HTC thinks that if there's a word in between "one" and "two" it can get away with calling a phone "one two".
This could be true – after all, naming its new flagship One M8 doesn't make much sense either, but HTC's done that anyway. At least that isn't the One 2, as we feared it might. Oh, and that's probably a first too – using a smartphone's codename in its actual name.
So since HTC has done stranger things, and in the recent past no less, we would really not be surprised to see a One Mini 2 on the market soon.
If you're wondering what to expect from it in terms of specs, previous leaks talked about a 4.5-inch 720p HD touchscreen, a 13 MP rear camera, a 5 MP front camera, a 1.4 GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 processor, 1 GB of RAM, 16 GB of internal storage, microSD card support, Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac, Bluetooth 4.0, and it should run Android 4.4 KitKat with HTC Sense 6 on top.

IBM Announces Breakthrough Renewable Energy Forecasting Technology
By Noah Ginsberg 8/16/13
The goal of any renewable energy developer or grid operator is to ensure a smooth flow of electricity stems from a power plant. And there are numerous technologies that aide project developers and grid operators to accurately forecast the weather to maximize the output and efficiency of renewable energy power plants. But none of these technologies come close to IBM's new Hybrid Renewable Energy Forecaster (HyREF). IBM unveiled their newest forecasting systems on August 12th – built with the renowned expertise the world has come to expect from IBM.
Arizona Fights for Its Solar Energy Rights

Energy: For lower costs at the pump, RFS is the best
By Todd Foley 8/06/2013
As we have witnessed over the past decade, the American energy landscape continues to transform. Not so long ago, energy scarcity was a significant concern, especially for transportation fuel as the petroleum supply decreased. As a result, in 2005 our nation wisely chose to diversify our fuel supply with strong bipartisan leadership from American policymakers. At that time, under George W. Bush, we created one of the most successful energy policies ever enacted– the Renewable Fuel Standard (RFS).
GM SERIES PART 2: Charging Infrastructure - It's not your father's filling station
By Dan Frakes and Alex Keros 08/02/2013
When developing a new type of vehicle and propulsion system, somewhere along the line infrastructure will be a major part of the equation and needs to be addressed. This article sheds some light into how infrastructure is playing a role in the development of electric vehicles, and how key partnerships with utilities and organizations like the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) are instrumental in the development of vehicles like the Chevrolet Volt and Spark EV.

The Indian Ocean Tsunami on Boxing Day 2004 generated a wave of private donations from Western countries – a paradigmatic case of generosity. However, more than a year after, a number of evaluation studies conclude that post-tsunami aid has achieved ambivalent results and that recipients of aid felt excluded from the reconstruction process, reduced to passive observers. This paper argues that there is a link between the abundance of generosity and the practices of aid: the practices of gift giving after the tsunami have developed a humiliating force for those who were at the recipient end of the gift chain, because the marketing of Western generosity by media and aid agencies reinforced those affected by the tsunami as ''pure'' victims, as ''bare life'' – passive recipients devoid of their status as fellow citizens on this planet. In a second step, the paper discusses the meta-ethics of these practices of generosity, thinking about the ambivalences inherent in bridging distance in encountering the ''distant'' other in our aid practices. Various forms of virtue ethics reflect this emphasis on the generous person, while neglecting the perspective of the person in need, and therefore implicitly reproduce those asymmetries of gift giving. In contrast to these conceptions, I want to argue that we need to ground our duty to help distant sufferers in their moral entitlement to be aided. This requires a meta-ethical approach that seeks a combination of a theory of justice with virtue ethics.

Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0 launching in red and grey soon?
Released earlier this month in Europe and the US only in white, the Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0 might be available in two new colors soon.
German retailer CyberPort is listing the Note 8.0 in grey (here) and red (here). Neither of the versions is in stock at the moment, and the photos provided show the already launched white edition. An explanation for this is that the retailer knows the two new colors are coming soon, but official images aren't available yet. It's not unusual for Samsung to introduce different color versions of the same Android tablet (or smartphone) after its initial launch.
The Galaxy Note 8.0 currently runs Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean, and will be updated to Android 5.0 Key Lime Pie later this year. It's Samsung's fourth device included in the Galaxy Note line, after the original 5.3 inch Note, the 5.5 inch Note II, and the Note 10.1.
In case you don't know yet, the Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0 features an 8 inch display with 1280 x 800 pixels, S Pen (alongside a slew of apps specially designed for it), 2GB of RAM, quad-core 1.6GHz Exynos 4412 processor, Mali-400MP GPU, 16GB of internal memory, 5MP rear camera, 1.3MP front-facing camera, MicroSD card support, and a 4,600 mAh battery. An LTE-capable Galaxy Note 8.0 should be also launched in the next few months.

We recently published how sleep deprivation can stall fat loss goals. Today, we are going to cover another common road block to fat loss - poor DIGESTION. Katherine Watkins gave us some great information on why proper digestion is so important for fat loss including a few simple tips we can implement now to get things working more efficiently.
How can bad digestion make you fat?
If you have a poorly functioning digestive system, even the healthiest of foods won't be processed properly.This can lead to chronic health problems and weight gain. Your body does not need steak or potatoes. Food needs to be converted into small particles - amino acids, glucose, minerals, fat molecules, vitamins and enzymes - that can penetrate the cell walls and nourish your cells. For your body to perform optimally, burn fat and be energetic and vibrant you must DIGEST your foods properly.
Here are some of the main ways in which poor digestion can lead to weight gain
1. Nutrient deficiency
If your body is not breaking down food properly, this can cause a deficiency in the vitamins and minerals necessary for your body to burn fat efficiently. Studies have shown that micronutrient deficiency can cause as much as an 80% increase in the likelihood of becoming overweight or obese. Further, you need adequate levels of protein in the blood to keep blood sugar levels stable. Thus, not digesting your proteins properly can cause blood sugar spikes and weight gain.
2. Leaky gut
Poor digestion can lead to a syndrome known as leaky gut. This is where the walls of your stomach and intestines become compromised and allow food particles to leak through the bloodstream. When these food particles enter the bloodstream your body views them as toxic and attacks them as if they are foreign invaders. This creates inflammation and swelling. When there is inflammation, fat burning is slowed down and may even stop entirely. Not only that, your body will hold on to water between the fat cells, making you appear swollen and bloated.
3. Poor detoxification
Proper detoxification is vital for weight loss. Toxin excess is a very common reason for rapid weight gain - you can put on as much as 25-50 llbs in a year if you have excessive toxin challenges that go unmanaged. A properly functioning digestive system is one of the most important ways in which to detoxify toxins from the body by processing and eliminating them as waste. Without good digestion, we cannot effectively clear toxins from the body making it very difficult to lose any weight.
How to improve your digestion
1. Breathe
Breathing as a simple yet powerful fool that we can use regulate our nervous system and aid digestion. Breathing through the mouth, as we do when we are anxious, nervous or stressed, activates our sympathetic nervous system (meaning our body goes into stress mode). When we are in sympathetic mode, we cannot digest food properly. Breathing through the nose will put our body into parasympathetic (or relaxed) mode. So before you eat, take 5 slow breaths in and out of your nose and your body will relax and become ready to digest your food.
2. Eat less
One of the most common reasons for poor digestion is overeating. Too much food entering your body at once overwhelms your upper digestive system resulting in heartburn, gas, diarrhea and other symptoms. A simple trick is just to reduce your portion size. Instead of stuffing yourself until you feel ready to burst, eat until you are about two thirds full.
3. Chew properly
The purpose of chewing your food is not simply to grind up the food in your mouth so that you can swallow it. Important enzymes for digesting carbohydrates and fats are secreted by the glands in your mouth so if you swallow your food too quickly, you simply will not digest it properly. Learn to take your time when eating, chew each bite thoroughly (around 25 chews) and enjoy it!
4. Stay hydrated
Drinking enough water is essential for good health and especially important for digestion. Water bulks up your stool and keeps it moving along so you don't get constipated. Water also plays an essential role in detoxification by flushing the toxins from your entire body, including your digestive system. Make it a habit to drink water regularly throughout the day to avoid becoming dehydrated. If you don't normally drink much water, make a conscious effort to do so. Drink a glass first thing in the morning and swap any sodas, energy drinks or coffees for water throughout the day. As a general guideline, you should be drinking around 0.7 oz of water per llb of bodyweight (or 39 ml per kg). So if you weigh 150 llbs (68 kg) you need to drink approximately 105 oz or 2.65 litres of water per day.
5. Be active
Exercise supports proper digestion by stimulating the normal contractions of the intestines and reducing constiption. In general, 30-45 minutes of light to moderate exercise each day will support gut health and an overall sense of well being.
6. Add vinegar
Adding apple cider or balsamic vinegar to your meals will help encourage the production of stomach acid which will helps break down protein. This will help prevent blood sugar spikes.

A Day No Pigs Would Die
by Robert Newton Peck
A Day No Pigs Would Die Chapter 13 Summary
- Time passes, and soon it's November. Still there's been no sign that Pinky is going into heat.
- Rob mentions the problem to Mr. Tanner, and Mr. Tanner comes by the next morning with his boar Samson.
- He explains that sometimes a sow has to be "coaxed" by a boar into going into heat. We'll let you look that one up.
- Mr. Tanner and Rob put Samson into the pen with Pinky.
- Pinky wants to stay on her own, so Rob hits her with a small stick until she comes out to where Samson is.
- Samson sniffs at Pinky, but Pinky wants nothing to do with him, and she kicks at him and tears at his ear with her mouth.
- Mr. Tanner asks after Papa's health, and Rob awkwardly says that he's fine.
- Which, by the way, he totally isn't.Mr. Tanner tells Rob that if Pinky does have piglets, he will expect two of them to be given to him as a "stud fee."
- Samson corners Pinky in the pen, and climbs on top of her, although she's obviously not happy with the situation.
- Mr. Tanner asks Rob how old he is, and then tells Rob that he's going to be a man soon—"twelve's a boy, thirteen a man," he says (13.42.)
- He asks about Rob's schoolwork. Rob does well in school (except for English!), and his teacher has told him that he could be "more than a farmer" (13.56).
- Mr. Tanner isn't psyched about that answer—he says there's nothing better than a farmer.
- Mr. Tanner tells Rob that he can look forward to a lot of piglets from Pinky, which will turn into a lot of money, which will help him pay off the farm. Well that sure would be nice.
- Rob says that he's not sure it's the Shaker way to think so much about money. Mr. Tanner tells Rob that he and his wife are Baptists, which surprises Rob and makes him feel foolish for thinking Baptists were so different from him and his family.

The previous chapter discusses the Emacs commands that are useful for making changes in programs. This chapter deals with commands that assist in the larger process of developing and maintaining programs.
|22.1 Running "make", or Compilers Generally

|22.4 Evaluating Emacs-Lisp Expressions
|Executing a single Lisp expression in Emacs.
|22.5 The Emacs-Lisp Debugger

Emacs can run compilers for non-interactive languages like C and Fortran as inferior processes, feeding the error log into an Emacs buffer. It can also parse the error messages and visit the files in which errors are found, moving point to the line where the error occurred.
grep asynchronously under Emacs, with matching lines
listed in the buffer named `*compilation*'.
M-x compile command.
grep subprocess.
grep match.
To run
make or another compiler, type M-x compile. This
command reads a shell command line using the minibuffer, then executes
the specified command line in an inferior shell with output going to the
buffer named `*compilation*'. By default, the current buffer's
default directory is used as the working directory for the execution of
the command; therefore, the makefile comes from this directory.
When the shell command line is read, the minibuffer appears containing a
default command line (the command you used the last time you typed
M-x compile). If you type just RET, the same command line is used
again. The first M-x compile provides
make -k as the default.
The default is taken from the variable
compile-command; if the
appropriate compilation command for a file is something other than
make -k, it can be useful to have the file specify a local value for
compile-command (see section 27.3.5 Local Variables in Files).
When you start a compilation, the buffer `*compilation*' is displayed in another window but not selected. Its mode line displays the word `run' or `exit' in the parentheses to tell you whether compilation is finished. You do not have to keep this buffer visible; compilation continues in any case.
To kill the compilation process, type M-x kill-compilation. The mode line of the `*compilation*' buffer changes to say `signal' instead of `run'. Starting a new compilation also kills any running compilation, as only one can occur at any time. Starting a new compilation prompts for confirmation before actually killing a compilation that is running.
To parse the compiler error messages, type C-x `
next-error). The character following C-x is the grave
accent, not the single quote. The command displays the buffer
`*compilation*' in one window and the buffer in which the next
error occurred in another window. Point in that buffer is moved to the
line where the error was found. The corresponding error message is
scrolled to the top of the window in which `*compilation*' is
The first time you use C-x ` after the start of a compilation, it parses all the error messages, visits all the files that have error messages, and creates markers pointing at the lines the error messages refer to. It then moves to the first error message location. Subsequent uses of C-x ` advance down the data set up by the first use. When the preparsed error messages are exhausted, the next C-x ` checks for any more error messages that have come in; this is useful if you start editing compiler errors while compilation is still going on. If no additional error messages have come in, C-x ` reports an error.
C-u C-x ` discards the preparsed error message data and parses the `*compilation*' buffer again, then displays the first error. This way, you can process the same set of errors again.
Instead of running a compiler, you can run
grep and see the
lines on which matches were found. To do this, type M-x grep with
an argument line that contains the same arguments you would give to
grep: a
grep-style regexp (usually in single quotes to
quote the shell's special characters) followed by filenames, which may
use wildcard characters. The output from
grep goes in the
`*compilation*' buffer. You can use C-x ` to find the lines that
match as if they were compilation errors.
Note: a shell is used to run the compile command, but the shell is not
run in interactive mode. In particular, this means that the shell starts
up with no prompt. If you find your usual shell prompt making an
unsightly appearance in the `*compilation*' buffer, it means you
have made a mistake in your shell's initialization file (`.cshrc'
or `.shrc' or ...) by setting the prompt unconditionally. The
shell initialization file should set the prompt only if there already is
a prompt. Here's how to do it in

Lisp code for Emacs editing commands is stored in files whose names conventionally end in `.el'. This ending tells Emacs to edit them in Emacs-Lisp mode (see section 22.2 Major Modes for Lisp).

To execute a file of Emacs Lisp, use M-x load-file. This command reads the file name you provide in the minibuffer, then executes the contents of that file as Lisp code. It is not necessary to visit the file first; in fact, this command reads the file as found on disk, not the text in an Emacs buffer.
Once a file of Lisp code is installed in the Emacs Lisp library
directories, users can load it using M-x load-library. Programs can
load it by calling
load-library, or with
load, a more primitive
function that is similar but accepts some additional arguments.
M-x load-library differs from M-x load-file in that it searches a sequence of directories and tries three file names in each directory. The three names are: first, the specified name with `.elc' appended; second, the name with `.el' appended; third, the specified name alone. A `.elc' file would be the result of compiling the Lisp file into byte code; if possible, it is loaded in preference to the Lisp file itself because the compiled file loads and runs faster.
Because the argument to
load-library is usually not in itself
a valid file name, file name completion is not available. In fact, when
using this command, you usually do not know exactly what file name
will be used.
The sequence of directories searched by M-x load-library is
specified by the variable
load-path, a list of strings that are
directory names. The elements of this list may not begin with "`~'",
so you must call
expand-file-name on them before adding them to
the list. The default value of the list contains the directory where
the Lisp code for Emacs itself is stored. If you have libraries of your
own, put them in a single directory and add that directory to
nil in this list stands for the current
default directory, but it is probably not a good idea to put
in the list. If you start wishing that
nil were in the list, you
should probably use M-x load-file for this case.
The variable is initialized by the EMACSLOADPATH environment variable. If no value is specified, the variable takes the default value specified in the file `paths.h' when Emacs was built. If a path isn't specified in `paths.h', a default value is obtained from the file system, near the directory in which the Emacs executable resides.
Like M-x load-library, M-x locate-library searches the
directories in
load-path to find the file that M-x load-library
would load. If the optional second argument nosuffix is
nil, the suffixes `.elc' or `.el' are not added to
the specified name library (like calling
load instead of
You often do not have to give any command to load a library, because the
commands defined in the library are set up to autoload that library.
Running any of those commands causes
load to be called to load the
library; this replaces the autoload definitions with the real ones from the
If autoloading a file does not finish, either because of an error or
because of a C-g quit, all function definitions made by the file
are undone automatically. So are any calls to
provide. As a
consequence, the entire file is loaded a second time if you use one of
the autoloadable commands again. This prevents problems when the
command is no longer autoloading but is working incorrectly because the file
was only partially loaded. Function definitions are undone only for
autoloading; explicit calls to
load do not undo anything if
loading is not completed.
The variable
after-load-alist takes an alist of expressions to be
evaluated when particular files are loaded. Each element has the form
(filename forms...). When
load is run and the filename
argument is filename, the forms in the corresponding element are
executed at the end of loading.
filename must match exactly. Normally filename is the
name of a library, with no directory specified, since that is how load
is normally called. An error in
forms does not undo the load, but
it does prevent execution of the rest of the

Emacs Lisp code can be compiled into byte-code which loads faster, takes up less space when loaded, and executes faster.
byte-compile-file creates a byte-code compiled file from an
Emacs-Lisp source file. The default argument for this function is the
file visited in the current buffer. The function reads the specified
file, compiles it into byte code, and writes an output file whose name
is made by appending `c' to the input file name. Thus, the file
`rmail.el' would be compiled into `rmail.elc'. To compile a
file of Lisp code named filename into a file of byte code and
then load it, use
byte-compile-and-load-file. To compile and
evaluate Lisp code in a given buffer, use
To recompile all changed Lisp files in a directory, use M-x byte-recompile-directory. Specify just the directory name as an argument. Each `.el' file that has been byte-compiled before is byte-compiled again if it has changed since the previous compilation. A numeric argument to this command tells it to offer to compile each `.el' file that has not been compiled yet. You must answer y or n to each offer.
You can use the function
batch-byte-compile to invoke Emacs
non-interactively from the shell to do byte compilation. When you use
this function, the files to be compiled are specified with command-line
arguments. Use a shell command of the form:
emacs -batch -f batch-byte-compile files...
Directory names may also be given as arguments; in that case,
byte-recompile-directory is invoked on each such directory.
batch-byte-compile uses all remaining command-line arguments as
file or directory names, then kills the Emacs process.
M-x disassemble explains the result of byte compilation. Its argument is a function name. It displays the byte-compiled code in a help window in symbolic form, one instruction per line. If the instruction refers to a variable or constant, that is shown, too.

Lisp programs intended to be run in Emacs should be edited in Emacs-Lisp mode; this will happen automatically for file names ending in `.el'. By contrast, Lisp mode itself should be used for editing Lisp programs intended for other Lisp systems. Emacs-Lisp mode can be selected with the command M-x emacs-lisp-mode.
For testing of Lisp programs to run in Emacs, it is useful to be able to evaluate part of the program as it is found in the Emacs buffer. For example, if you change the text of a Lisp function definition and then evaluate the definition, Emacs installs the change for future calls to the function. Evaluation of Lisp expressions is also useful in any kind of editing task for invoking non-interactive functions (functions that are not commands).
eval-expression) is the most basic command
for evaluating a Lisp expression interactively. It reads the expression
using the minibuffer, so you can execute any expression on a buffer
regardless of what the buffer contains. When evaluation is complete,
the current buffer is once again the buffer that was current when
M-ESC was typed.
M-ESC can easily confuse users, especially on keyboards
with autorepeat, where it can result from holding down the ESC key
for too long. Therefore,
eval-expression is normally a disabled
command. Attempting to use this command asks for confirmation and gives
you the option of enabling it; once you enable the command, you are no
longer required to confirm. See section 27.5.3 Disabling Commands.
In Emacs-Lisp mode, the key C-M-x is bound to the function
eval-defun, which parses the defun containing point or following point
as a Lisp expression and evaluates it. The value is printed in the echo
area. This command is convenient for installing in the Lisp environment
changes that you have just made in the text of a function definition.
The command C-x C-e (
eval-last-sexp) performs a similar job
but is available in all major modes, not just Emacs-Lisp mode. It finds
the sexp before point, reads it as a Lisp expression, evaluates it, and
prints the value in the echo area. It is sometimes useful to type in an
expression and then, with point still after it, type C-x C-e.
If C-M-x or C-x C-e are given a numeric argument, they print the value by inserting it into the current buffer at point, rather than in the echo area. The argument value does not matter.
The most general command for evaluating Lisp expressions from a buffer
eval-region. M-x eval-region parses the text of the
region as one or more Lisp expressions, evaluating them one by one.
M-x eval-current-buffer is similar, but it evaluates the entire
buffer. This is a reasonable way to install the contents of a file of
Lisp code that you are just ready to test. After finding and fixing a
bug, use C-M-x on each function that you change, to keep the Lisp
world in step with the source file.

XEmacs contains a debugger for Lisp programs executing inside it.
This debugger is normally not used; many commands frequently get Lisp
errors when invoked in inappropriate contexts (such as C-f at the
end of the buffer) and it would be unpleasant to enter a special
debugging mode in this case. When you want to make Lisp errors invoke
the debugger, you must set the variable
debug-on-error to
nil. Quitting with C-g is not considered an error, and
debug-on-error has no effect on the handling of C-g.
However, if you set
debug-on-quit to be non-
nil, C-g will
invoke the debugger. This can be useful for debugging an infinite loop;
type C-g once the loop has had time to reach its steady state.
debug-on-quit has no effect on errors.
You can make Emacs enter the debugger when a specified function
is called or at a particular place in Lisp code. Use M-x
debug-on-entry with argument fun-name to have Emacs enter the
debugger as soon as fun-name is called. Use
M-x cancel-debug-on-entry to make the function stop entering the
debugger when called. (Redefining the function also does this.) To enter
the debugger from some other place in Lisp code, you must insert the
(debug) there and install the changed code with
C-M-x. See section 22.4 Evaluating Emacs-Lisp Expressions.
When the debugger is entered, it displays the previously selected buffer in one window and a buffer named `*Backtrace*' in another window. The backtrace buffer contains one line for each level of Lisp function execution currently going on. At the beginning of the buffer is a message describing the reason that the debugger was invoked, for example, an error message if it was invoked due to an error.
The backtrace buffer is read-only and is in Backtrace mode, a special major mode in which letters are defined as debugger commands. The usual Emacs editing commands are available; you can switch windows to examine the buffer that was being edited at the time of the error, and you can switch buffers, visit files, and perform any other editing operations. However, the debugger is a recursive editing level (see section 26.10 Recursive Editing Levels); it is a good idea to return to the backtrace buffer and explicitly exit the debugger when you don't want to use it any more. Exiting the debugger kills the backtrace buffer.
The contents of the backtrace buffer show you the functions that are executing and the arguments that were given to them. It also allows you to specify a stack frame by moving point to the line describing that frame. The frame whose line point is on is considered the current frame. Some of the debugger commands operate on the current frame. Debugger commands are mainly used for stepping through code one expression at a time. Here is a list of them:
When you enter the debugger this way, Emacs flags the stack frame for the function call from which you entered. The same function is then called when you exit the frame. To cancel this flag, use u.
If the debugger was entered due to a C-g but you really want to quit, not to debug, use the q command.
The value returned by the debugger makes a difference when the debugger was invoked due to exit from a Lisp call frame (as requested with b); then the value specified in the r command is used as the value of that frame.
The debugger's return value also matters with many errors. For example,
wrong-type-argument errors will use the debugger's return value
instead of the invalid argument;
no-catch errors will use the
debugger value as a throw tag instead of the tag that was not found.
If an error was signaled by calling the Lisp function
the debugger's return value is returned as the value of

The buffer `*scratch*', which is selected when Emacs starts up, is provided for evaluating Lisp expressions interactively inside Emacs. Both the expressions you evaluate and their output goes in the buffer.
The `*scratch*' buffer's major mode is Lisp Interaction mode, which
is the same as Emacs-Lisp mode except for one command, C-j. In
Emacs-Lisp mode, C-j is an indentation command. In Lisp
Interaction mode, C-j is bound to
eval-print-last-sexp. This
function reads the Lisp expression before point, evaluates it, and inserts
the value in printed representation before point.
The way to use the `*scratch*' buffer is to insert Lisp expressions at the end, ending each one with C-j so that it will be evaluated. The result is a complete typescript of the expressions you have evaluated and their values.
The rationale for this feature is that Emacs must have a buffer when it starts up, but that buffer is not useful for editing files since a new buffer is made for every file that you visit. The Lisp interpreter typescript is the most useful thing I can think of for the initial buffer to do. M-x lisp-interaction-mode will put any buffer in Lisp Interaction mode.

Emacs has facilities for running programs in other Lisp systems. You can run a Lisp process as an inferior of Emacs, and pass expressions to it to be evaluated. You can also pass changed function definitions directly from the Emacs buffers in which you edit the Lisp programs to the inferior Lisp process.
To run an inferior Lisp process, type M-x run-lisp.
(You need to the `os-utils' package installed for this.) This runs the
program named
lisp, the same program you would run by typing
lisp as a shell command, with both input and output going through an
Emacs buffer named `*lisp*'. In other words, any "terminal output"
from Lisp will go into the buffer, advancing point, and any "terminal
input" for Lisp comes from text in the buffer. To give input to Lisp, go
to the end of the buffer and type the input, terminated by RET. The
`*lisp*' buffer is in Inferior Lisp mode, which has all the
special characteristics of Lisp mode and Shell mode (see section 26.7.3 Shell Mode).
Use Lisp mode to run the source files of programs in external Lisps. You can select this mode with M-x lisp-mode. It is used automatically for files whose names end in `.l' or `.lisp', as most Lisp systems usually expect.
When you edit a function in a Lisp program you are running, the easiest
way to send the changed definition to the inferior Lisp process is the key
C-M-x. In Lisp mode, this key runs the function
which finds the defun around or following point and sends it as input to
the Lisp process. (Emacs can send input to any inferior process regardless
of what buffer is current.)
Contrast the meanings of C-M-x in Lisp mode (for editing programs to be run in another Lisp system) and Emacs-Lisp mode (for editing Lisp programs to be run in Emacs): in both modes it has the effect of installing the function definition that point is in, but the way of doing so is different according to where the relevant Lisp environment is found. See section 22.2 Major Modes for Lisp.

The XEmacs 21 distribution comes only with a very basic set of built-in modes and packages. Most of the packages that were part of the distribution of earlier versions of XEmacs are now available separately. The installer as well as the user can choose which packages to install; the actual installation process is easy. This gives an installer the ability to tailor an XEmacs installation for local needs with safe removal of unnecessary code.

When you first download XEmacs 21, you will usually first grab the core distribution, a file called `xemacs-21.x.x.tar.gz'. (Replace the 21.x.x by the current version number.) The core distribution contains the sources of XEmacs and a minimal set of Emacs Lisp files, which are in the subdirectory named `lisp'. This subdirectory used to contain all Emacs Lisp files distributed with XEmacs. Now, to conserve disk space, most non-essential packages were made optional.

If you have EFS @xref{(EFS)}, packages can be installed over the network. Alternatively, if you have copies of the packages locally, you can install packages from a local disk or CDROM.
The file `etc/PACKAGES' in the core distribution contains a list of the Available Packages: at the time of the XEmacs release.
You can also get a list of available packages, and whether or not they are installed, using the visual package browser and installer. You can access it via the menus:
Tools -> Packages -> List and Install
Or, you can get to it via the keyboard:
Hint to system administrators of multi-user systems: it might be a good idea to install all packages and not interfere with the wishes of your users.
If you can't find which package provides the feature you require, try
using the
package-get-package-provider function. Eg., if you know
that you need
thingatpt, type:
which will return something like `(fsf-compat "1.08")'. You can the use one of the methods above for installing the package you want.

There are three main ways to install packages:
|Automatic Package Installation:
|Using the package tools from XEmacs.
|Manual Package Installation:
|Using individual package tarballs.
|Installing the Sumo Packages:
|All at once, using the 'Sumo Tarball'.
|Which Packages to Install:
|Which packages to install.
|Removing Packages:
|Removing packages.
But regardless of the method you use to install packages, they can only be used by XEmacs after a restart unless the package in question has not been previously installed.
Unfortunately this requires that a few packages are already in place. You will have to install them by hand as above or use a SUMO tarball. This requirement will hopefully go away in the future. The packages you need are:
efs - To fetch the files from the FTP site or mirrors. xemacs-base - Needed by efs. and optionally: mailcrypt - To do PGP verification of the `package-index' file.
After installing these by hand, fire up XEmacs and follow these steps.
M-x customize-variable RET package-get-remote RET
(put in the details of remote host and directory)
If the package tarballs _AND_ the package-index file are in a
local directory, you can:
M-x pui-set-local-package-get-directory RET
M-x pui-list-packages RET
XEmacs will now connect to the remote site and download the latest package-index file.
The visual package browser will then display a list of all packages. Help information will be displayed at the very bottom of the buffer; you may have to scroll down to see it. You can also press ? to get the same help. From this buffer, you can tell the package status by the character in the first column:
If there is no character in the first column, the package has been installed and is up to date.
From here, you can select or unselect packages for installation using the RET key, the Mouse-2 button or selecting "Select" from the Popup Mouse-3 Menu. Once you've finished selecting the packages, you can press the x key (or use the menu) to actually install the packages. Note that you will have to restart XEmacs for XEmacs to recognize any new packages.
Key summary:
Moving the mouse over a package will also cause additional information about the package to be displayed in the minibuffer. If you have balloon-help enabled a balloon-help frame will pop up and display additional package information also.
XEmacs will now search for packages that are required by the ones that you have chosen to install and offer to select those packages also.
For novices and gurus alike, this step can save your bacon. It's easy to forget to install a critical package.
You can also install packages using a semi-manual interface:
M-x package-get-all <return>
Enter the name of the package (e.g.,
prog-modes), and XEmacs
will search for the latest version and install it and any packages that
it depends upon.
Tools -> Packages -> Set Download Site Tools -> Packages -> Update Installed Packages
NOTE: If you are upgrading packages already installed, it's best to remove the old package first Removing Packages:.
For example if we are installing the `xemacs-base' package (version 1.48):
mkdir $prefix/share/xemacs/xemacs-packages RET # if it does not exist yet cd $prefix/share/xemacs/xemacs-packages RET gunzip -c /path/to/xemacs-base-1.48-pkg.tar.gz | tar xvf - RET Or if you have GNU tar, the last step can be: tar zxvf /path/to/xemacs-base-1.48-pkg.tar.gz RET
For MULE related packages, it is best to untar into the mule-packages hierarchy, i.e. for the `mule-base' package, version 1.37:
mkdir $prefix/share/xemacs/mule-packages RET # if it does not exist yet cd $prefix/share/xemacs/mule-packages RET gunzip -c /path/to/mule-base-1.37-pkg.tar.gz | tar xvf - RET Or if you have GNU tar, the last step can be: tar zxvf /path/to/mule-base-1.37-pkg.tar.gz RET
NOTE: For more detailed information about how the package hierarchies work, See section `Package Overview' in XEmacs Lisp Reference Manual.
For an XEmacs compiled with Mule you also need: `xemacs-mule-sumo.tar.gz'
N.B. They are called 'Sumo Tarballs' for good reason. They are currently about 19MB and 4.5MB (gzipped) respectively.
Install them by:
cd $prefix/share/xemacs ; gunzip -c <tarballname> | tar xvf - RET
Or, if you have GNU tar:
cd $prefix/share/xemacs ; tar zxvf /path/to/<tarballname> RET
As the Sumo tarballs are not regenerated as often as the individual packages, it is recommended that you use the automatic package tools afterwards to pick up any recent updates.
xemacs-base, xemacs-devel, c-support, cc-mode, debug, dired, efs, edit-utils, fsf-compat, mail-lib, net-utils, os-utils, prog-modes, text-modes, time, mailcrypt
If you are using the XEmacs package tools, don't forget to do:
Packages -> Add Required
To make sure you have everything that the packages you have chosen to install need.
See also Available Packages: for further descriptions of the individual packages.
No need to panic, you don't have to go through the
`pkginfo/MANIFEST.pkgname' and manually delete the files. Instead, use
M-x package-get-delete-package RET.
Note that the interactive package tools included with XEmacs already do this for you.

Do you enjoy our Designer Challenges? You know, the ones where we ask Fat Quarterly readers to create something based solely on a single piece of inspiration, or using a specific material, or by trying a new technique? Well, our friends at Generation Q Magazine have just launched their fun new challenge series, Music Monday. The idea is that the team at Gen Q will select a music video and have their readers show off what it inspired them to create.
Their first pick to kick off the challenge? A blast from the past called "Break Out", by Swing Out Sister. Remember this one? Check out the video below (and behold the awesome sewing sequence that kicks it off!), and then head over to the Gen Q blog to read more details about the rules, their Flickr group, and the announcement of their guest celebrity judges for the first challenge. (Here's a hint: IT'S US!)
So what are you waiting for? BREAK OUT!
