Das eez kaput! Sometime around 2002 I spaced the entire database table that mapped individual entries to categories. Such is life. What follows is a random sampling of entries that were associated with the category. Over time, the entries will be updated and then it will be even more confusing. Wander around, though, it's still a fun way to find stuff.
I wanted something that would work from within Mozilla Firebird which had the minimum ammount of features, launched fast, and previewed html files using the latest CSS.
A collection of baseball games, generally played in October, often viewed by aficionados in a light similar to religious ritual. Term first coined in the 1950s by the inimitable Walt Kelly, cartoonist, humorist, and linguist extraordinaire. ("We have met the enemy and he is us.")

Short for "Do I look like I care?" When someone tells you something you are uninterested in, instead of saying I don't care, just say "dilligaff."
ex. Joe: Nice weather today. Mary: Dilligaff!

for testing.Miscellaneous item, usually one you can't remember the name of. Substitute for thingo. Can be extended to "dooverlakie."
ex. I left the thingo on the doover.
<xsl:copy-of select = "transform(document($xml),document($xsl))" />Then it occurred to that you might be able to do the same thing like this (untested) :
<xsl:for-each select = "/xpath/to/some/xref[@style != '']"> <xsl:variable name = "style" select = "@style" /> <xsl:include href = "$style" /> </xsl:for-each> ... <!-- would really be a choose... --> <xsl:if test = "@style"> <xsl:apply-templates> <xsl:apply-templates select="document($uri)/$xpath"/> </xsl:apply-template> </xsl:if>So now I'm wondering if I really need to add an
include
element to the DTD...
To whom it may concern,
This summer, I had the opportunity to stay at the Westin hotel in downtown Ottawa. Both the hotel and the room itself were clean and comfortable, the staff was polite and prompt and the view from our room was excellent.
On closer inspection, however, I began to feel as though I had entered the set of the Home Shopping Network. Everywhere I looked I was being nickeled and dimed for something I either didn't want or was shocked that I was being asked to pay for from a hotel.
Five dollars for a chocolate bar that is doubtless four months past it's best before date since no one in their right mind would pay more than three times it's retail price. Twelves dollars and fifty cent for a package of toileteries that I don't need when all I might want is some toothpaste. Four dollars and fifty cents for a bottle of water.
Now, I'm going to go out on a limb and suggest that you have companies knocking down your door for the opportunity to place their products so prominently in the thousands of hotel rooms you maintain all over the world. And I will further suggest that you are being offered these items at drastically reduced rates or, more likely, for free. If you're not, you may want to have a quick talking-to with your buying agents.
Ask yourself what it is that one hotel has to offer over another. Once you get past issues of general cleanliness and quality of furnishings, it comes done largely to overall experience and atmosphere. These are the things that move people to pay more money for something when they could otherwise get the same offering for less.
I left the Westin feeling like you thought I was an idiot and a sheep. I left the Westin feeling relieved that I wouldn't have to wake up looking at a price tag. I left the Westin joking with friends about the sorts of things we'd be asked to pay additional fees for on our next visit. Assuming, that is, we ever returned.
I left the Westin feeling like decisions had been made by a management that doesn't really care about it's customers and is only interested in doing the absolute bare minimum to give the appearance of superiour experience and quality, while screwing people for another "micro-payment" at every turn. I left the Westin astonished that the same management didn't seem to care that such a callous and institutional approach to life, and business, was so glaringly obvious. I left the Westin referring to the hotel, now, as "The Cheap Bastard".
You are free to run your business as you see fit. If what I have described is, in fact, a successful business model then all I can say is : More power to you. I hope you win a prize for drawing blood from a stone. However, you may wish to reconsider how you run your hotels because I won't be recommending them for myself or anyone I know until you do.
Sincerely,
