SR West Country and Battle of Britain classes, collectively known as Light Pacifics or informally as "Spam Cans", are classes of air-smoothed 4-6-2 Pacificsteam locomotive designed for the Southern Railway by its Chief Mechanical Engineer Oliver Bulleid. A total of 110 locomotives were constructed between 1945 and 1950, named after West Country resorts or Royal Air Force and other subjects associated with the Battle of Britain. Incorporating new developments in British steam locomotive technology, both classes were amongst the first British designs to utilise welding in the construction process, and to use steel fireboxes, which meant that components could be more easily constructed during the wartime austerity and post-war economy. They were designed to be lighter in weight than their sister locomotives, the Merchant Navy class, to permit use on a wider variety of routes. They were a mixed-traffic design, equally adept at hauling passenger and freight trains. The classes operated until July 1967, when the last steam locomotives on the Southern Region were withdrawn from service. Although most were scrapped, 20 locomotives found new homes on Britishheritage railways. (Full article...)

AOL Desktop is an internet suite produced by AOL that integrates a web browser, a media player and an instant messenger client.[1] Based onAOL OpenRide,[2] it is an upgrade from such.[3] The Mac OS X version is based on WebKit.
AOL Desktop is different from previous AOL browsers, which are still available. Its features are focused on browsing instead of email. For instance, one does not have to sign in to AOL in order to use it as a regular browser. In addition, non-AOL email accounts can be accessed through it. There are three main buttons: "MAIL", "IM", and "WEB". The first two require users to sign in but "WEB" can be instantly used.

ome Gnus features:
- a range of backends that support any or all of:
- reading email from the local filesystem, or over a network via IMAP or POP3
- reading web pages via an RSS or Atom feed
- treating a directory of files, either local or remote (via FTP or other method) as articles to browse
- reading Usenet News, including the Gmane and Gwene mail-to-news archives of mailing lists
- simple or advanced mail splitting (automatic sorting of incoming mail to user-defined groups)
- incoming mail can be set to expire instead of just plain deletion
- custom posting styles (e.g. a different From address, .signature etc.) for each group
- virtual groups (e.g., directory on the computer can be read as a group)
- an advanced message scoring system
- user-defined hooks for almost any method (in emacs lisp)
- many of the parameters (e.g., expiration, posting style) can be specified individually for all of the groups
- integration with the Insidious Big Brother Database (BBDB) to handle contacts in a highly automated fashion.
- integration with other Emacs packages, such as the W3 web browser, LDAP lookup code, etc.
Some people[who?] say there is no feature (or something similar) in any MUA Gnus doesn't have – or if there isn't one ready, it can be done "easily" with few lines of emacs lisp.

 Gnus 5.11 under GNU Emacs and Fedora | |

| Stable release | 5.13 [edit] (July 2009) |

Gnus (pron.: /ɡᵊˈnuːz/), or Gnus Network User Services, is a message reader running under GNU Emacs and XEmacs. It supports reading and composing both e-mail and news and can also act as an RSS reader, web processor, and directory browser for both local and remote filesystems.
Gnus blurs the distinction between news and e-mail, treating them both as "articles" that come from different sources. News articles are kept separate by group, and e-mail can be split into arbitrary groups, similar to folders in other mail readers. In addition, Gnus is able to use a number ofweb-based sources as inputs for its groups.
Note that, as with GNU, the g in Gnus is always pronounced
content to users.
A text-based web browser is a web browser that renders only the text of web pages, and ignores graphic content. Usually, they render pages faster than web browsers that include graphics because graphics need additional bandwidth.
Text-based browsers are often very useful for users with visual impairment or blindness, since there is less for the computer to process and present. They are especially useful with speech synthesis or text-to-speech software, which reads content to users.
Lynx Browser (
» Lynx Browser (Text-based) viewer
The Lynx Viewer allows webmasters to see what their pages will look like when viewed with Lynx , a text-mode web browser. It is also presumably, how search engines see your site. In addition to that, it can help determine if web pages are accessible to the vision impaired.
Note: For best results, you should download a copy of Lynx itself and run it locally on your own computer. Lynx for MAC OS X.
