Every year around Christmastime, I start wanting to play with fire. I'm sure this goes back, as so much inevitably does, to my years as a young and enthusiastic Catholic. When I was an altar boy, my devout grandfather made sure I was always early for my shift, which meant I got to walk around the church with a long brass candle-lighter, stopping purposefully at every wax taper. And during the weeks of Advent, there were always so many more candles to light. For a 10-year-old, this was a dream job, even if it was unpaid; the perks included unrestricted access to matches.
At Fort Defiance, my bar in Brooklyn, my love for Yuletide flame still burns. Every holiday office party that braves the damp harbor chill of Red Hook is treated to a bowl of flaming rum and brandy, from an impeccable recipe written by Charles Dickens, and introduced to me by David Wondrich in his book, Punch. Sometimes late on a Sunday night, I'll fire one up just for kicks for some unsuspecting stragglers, or on one memorable night, for some off-duty bartenders who'd just come from touring the prodigious Christmas lights of Dyker Heights. Later, they introduced me to snapdragon, a Christmas game that dates to Elizabethan times. Children were encouraged to pluck raisins from a bowl of flaming brandy, "and eat them as hastily as they can, but rarely without burning their hands, or scalding their mouths," according to one account. My inner altar boy was jealous of those kids, despite their oral injuries.
What is it about fire and the holiday season? It's all around us—the Yule log, the candles in the windows, the flames of the menorah that never go out, and a red-suited stranger who prefers chimneys to doors. And what instinct am I heeding when I stand like Dickens himself in front of that flaming bowl, ladle and tongs in hand? I signal the waiter to turn down the lights, and pour a trickle of flaming brandy down a spiral peel of lemon, studded with cloves. The blue flame slithers down the peel, the cloves glow red and sizzle, the guests gasp—I learned that trick by watching waiters light Café Brûlot Diabolique at Antoine's in New Orleans, which they perform just before they draw a ring of fire right on your table.
It's old, this wintertime pyromania, and it runs deep in our collective psyche. Winter is a scary time, and always has been. The trees bare their bones; nights get longer; the sun spends less and less time in the sky. Will it return? The outcome becomes doubtful. The gates between our world and the unknown are pushed ajar at Halloween; they swing wide as the autumn weeks go by, and the world dims. "Night threatens day, just as the dead menace the living," wrote Claude Lévi-Strauss in his essay "Father Christmas Executed." In other words: The night is dark and full of terrors.
But from the darkness comes a voice: "You don't have to be afraid," it says. "We have fire." That's always been our job—the priestesses, sorcerers, altar boys, bartenders and considerate hosts throughout the ages. When it feels like the world is going to end, we open our doors and welcome our guests, and tell them that life goes on. At the winter solstice, the sun god will be reborn. Days will lengthen, and everything will be put right. "And you know what?"—we tell them, as we pour them a drink—"Next year will be even better." Sometimes all you need to do to convince them is light a fire.

Madras College, St Andrews
3 stars The demise of the Byre Theatre as a thriving professional producing house following funding cuts after a major refurbishment was a major loss to St Andrews. With any luck, this new production of a script originally penned by John Ward may help encourage the re-establishment of a permanent artistic team at what is now primarily a receiving house.
Ward's play was a heroic reimagining of the life and death of seventeenth century Scots wanderer, James MacPherson, who created his own mythology via the song he penned while awaiting execution. Kally Lloyd-Jones' production of Linda Duncan McLaughlin's adaptation was enabled by the Scottish Government-backed Year of Creative Scotland 2012's bestowment of the Scotland's Creative Place Award to St Andrews. Performed by a mixed cast of professionals and community participants, the production is staged in a heated tent in the grounds of Madras College, and is a romantically inclined romp that suggests a kind of proto class war at play. MacPherson here is the illegitimate son of Laird Duff's former maid. When MacPherson falls for Bess, whose father has promised her to Duff, a backdrop of personal jealousy and Jacobite rebellion makes for an epic akin to a western. As played out on Janis Hart's big wooden set with trees spilling into the auditorium, it's a patchy show, but one which nevertheless highlights institutionalised misogyny and abuses of power and privilege. As MacPherson, Martin Forry grows in confidence throughout, while Morna McDonald makes for a feisty foil as Bess. By far the best thing here is the live harp and fiddle score played by young musicians from Madras. Under the guidance of Rachel Newton, it's subtle under-scoring is a thing of quiet beauty.

Brief Synopsis
The true story of World War II''''s all Japanese-American unit.
In 1943, Lieutenant Michael Grayson is dismayed when he finds that his first assignment as a lieutenant platoon leader is to be at Camp Shelby, Mississippi, home of the 442nd Regimental Combat Team, a new outfit composed entirely of Japanese-American volunteers. When he requests a transfer to the 36th Division, his old Texas National Guard unit, Col. Charles W. Pence refuses and dresses him down for using the word "Japs" when referring to the men who will be under his command. Capt. Solari, Grayson's superior officer, explains that the regimental slogan, "Go for Broke," is pidgin English for "shoot the works" and assures the suspicious lieutenant that none of the men are spies. In the barracks, Tommy Kamakura, an impetuous volunteer, and Sam, a soldier sending a package to his family in a relocation camp, discuss the main reason they have volunteered--to show that they are good Americans, so that "relocations" will not happen again. As the weks pass, Grayson puts the men through rigorous training and the unit becomes proficient. Tommy is anxious to fight in the Pacific, because his parents were killed in the attack on Pearl Harbor, but Sam tells him they will not be sent there because they might be mistaken for the enemy or thought to be spies. The men are shipped out on May 1, 1944, with Italy as their destination. After some time in Naples, the men of the "442" march through the countryside to Rome. At a village town, a woman flirts with Grayson, and while he romances her, the unit moves out. He interrupts the tryst when he learns that her recent " amico " was in the 36th Division, and excitedly leaves to try to find his former unit. Captain Solari, who has covered up for Grayson, reprimands him for his antagonistic attitude toward the Japanese-American soldiers. A short time later, Tommy and Sam are invited by two soldiers of the 100th Infantry Battalion, the other Army unit composed of Japanese Americans, for some wine they found in a vineyard. Their party is interrupted when the four are shot at by a German officer and one of the soldierss from the 110th is killed. Tommy, Sam and the other soldier, Masami, blow up the Germans with grenades, after which Tommy finds a baby pig, which he keeps as a pet. After Grayson reports the incident, he again asks Colonel Pence for a transfer to the 36th Division, and the disgusted colonel says he will try to arrange it. Solari, who has become friendly with Grayson despite his bigoted views, argues that many in the Army have parents who were born in enemy countries, such as Italian Americans, like himself, and German Americans. When Grayson says that the situation with the Japanese Americans is different, Solari challenges him to state the reason, asking if it is because of the shape of their eyes, or the color of their skin. Soon the men are moved to another theater of operation, and during their march, a battle ensues among Roman ruins. Tommy is wounded in the leg, but courageously fires a mortar on target, and the unit captures a German stronghold. The German officers taken prisoner are shocked to see Japanese-American troops, and Grayson is won over by his men's courage. After landing in Marseilles, Grayson, though now proud to be with the 442nd, is transferred to act as a liaison officer at the headquarters of the 36th Division, to which the 442nd outfit is now attached. Some time later, the soft-hearted Tommy sees the suffering and hunger of a poor French family and sadly gives them his pet pig for food for the children. Grayson finds some of the 442nd at a bar, where his old platoon sergeant, Wilson I. Culley, is making racist slurs. Unknown to the men of the 442nd, who think the two are buddies, Grayson fights Culley in an alley for calling him a "Jap-lover." Later, Grayson is sent with Culley's unit as an artillery observer, and the unit is surrounded by Germans. Some of the 442nd, when they are told they are being sent to help, are upset, knowing of the unit's racism, but Tommy says this will be their chance to teach the Texans. As they approach, the 442nd begin to fire on the Texans, thinking they are Germans, until Grayson yells a Japanese word he does not understand, but which he has often heard. Culley, grateful for their arrival, surprises the men fo the 442nd by revealing the nature of the fight he and Grayson earlier had, and Grayson learns that the Japanese word he used means, "you're a stupid jerk and a heel." The 442nd rescues the besieged Texans, and after winning the battle, the Japanese-American and Texan troops part amicably. The 442nd returns to America, where, in a ceremony on the White House lawn, President Harry S. Truman and General Mark W. Clark honor them, and they are cited for outstanding accomplishment in combat, and is honored with a parade down Pennsylvania Avenue.

The Warren Commission took the testimony of Marguerite Oswald (Lee Harvey Oswald's mother) over the course of a three-day period, in Washington, D.C., beginning on February 10, 1964. All of her testimony can be found in Volume 1 of the Warren Commission volumes, HERE.
Marguerite became convinced immediately after President Kennedy's assassination that her son, Lee, had been working for several years as an "agent" for the United States Government prior to JFK's murder on November 22, 1963.
And Mrs. Oswald was furthermore convinced that her son had been framed for the President's murder, and she also thought that Lee was framed for the slaying of Dallas policeman J.D. Tippit as well, with Marguerite's direct quote regarding that murder, despite the huge amount of evidence indicating otherwise, being: "I strictly do not believe that Lee killed Officer Tippit" [at 1 H 234].
Marguerite Oswald, to be quite blunt, was a fruitcake (as the quotes contained in this article will fully bear out). Newspaper reporter Hugh Aynesworth said that Marguerite "was one of the weirdest people I've ever run into". And after reading through her Warren Commission sessions, I don't have too much difficulty believing Mr. Aynesworth.
Following are some of my favorite portions of Marguerite's lengthy Warren Commission testimony (with a few of my own comments inserted along the way):
WARREN COMMISSION CHAIRMAN EARL WARREN -- "Mrs. Oswald, you are appearing voluntarily before the Commission, are you not?"
MARGUERITE OSWALD -- "Yes, voluntarily."
EARL WARREN -- "You requested to do so. In order that you may have a full opportunity to testify in your own manner, and tell us everything that you know, and particularly because we do not know what you know, I am going to ask you if you would like first, in your own way, and in your own time, to tell us everything you have concerning this case. You would like to do that, would you?"
MARGUERITE OSWALD -- "Yes, Chief Justice Warren. I would like to very much. However, there are three things that I have asked that should be brought before the Council, three requests of mine. One has already been granted--that is the counsel, Mr. Doyle. And I do appreciate that fact.
"I have stated publicly that I believe in the American way of life and justice for all men, which is our American way of life. My son, Lee Harvey Oswald, was tried and convicted within a few hours' time, without benefit of counsel.
"And so I am appealing to the Board that my son, Lee Harvey Oswald, be represented by counsel. I am being represented by counsel. My daughter-in-law Marina was represented by counsel. And I understand that all other witnesses will have the privilege of being represented by counsel. However, the main object of the Commission is Lee Harvey Oswald, in the murder of President Kennedy. So I strongly believe that Lee should be represented by counsel.
"Now, my reasons for wanting this done this way is, I will state, that Marina has testified. Marina has testified, according to the papers--and I am assuming that this is correct--that Lee wanted to live in Russia and Cuba, and that is why he went to Mexico. I happen to know differently--because Marina has told me the first day I was with her, "Mama, I write to Russian consul. I want go back to Russia. I like America. But Lee no get work."
"So you see, had a counsel been there in behalf of my son, when Marina said that--it doesn't have to be a court trial or a cross-examination. All I am asking is that this man sit quietly, and when he knows of different facts, then he could say, "Well, Mrs. Oswald, isn't it true that you wrote the Russian consul yourself, wanting to go back to Russia?" And in this way, gentlemen, I believe you would have both sides and a true picture."
[DVP INTERJECTION -- I can't help but sense the irony that comes through when reading the above words spoken by Marguerite Oswald -- i.e., she says that she wants to make sure that "both sides" of the story are heard at the Warren Commission hearings, but then she proceeds to misrepresent Marina's side of the story regarding the letters that Marina wrote concerning her request to return to Russia.
I think perhaps Marguerite, herself, might have misinterpreted Marina's fractured English that Marguerite quoted above, because Marina's Warren Commission testimony is quite clear with respect to the question of whether or not Marina Oswald wanted to return to the Soviet Union in 1963:
J. LEE RANKIN -- "At the time of Exhibit 14 [July 8, 1963], then, you were not anxious to return to Russia?"
MARINA OSWALD -- "I never wanted to return, but Lee insisted and there is nothing else I could do. But sometimes when I wrote these letters, I felt very lonely--since my husband didn't want me, I felt perhaps this would be the best way."
And there is also the testimony of Ruth Paine (who probably knew Marina better than anyone else besides Lee Oswald in the year 1963), which shows that it was Ruth's opinion that Marina definitely had no desire at all to go back to Russia:
ALBERT JENNER -- "During all of your contact with Marina Oswald, did she ever express any view other than that one of wanting to remain in America?"
RUTH PAINE -- "No, she did not."
ALBERT JENNER -- "Was she affirmative about--"
RUTH PAINE -- "Very."
ALBERT JENNER -- "Of wanting to stay in this country?"
RUTH PAINE -- "Yes."]
MARGUERITE OSWALD -- "I cannot see how you can come to a true conclusion by taking individual testimony. Now, I, myself, am here today to testify. I have been sworn in. But that doesn't mean that I can tell the whole story. I may forget something. And the counsel would know.
"We have investigators all over the country, the reporters are interested, the public. I have over 1,500 letters, people expressing their opinion of the way this case is being handled. And, believe me, gentlemen, they are not satisfied. I can produce these documents for you. They think, like I think, that the American way of life, both sides should be heard. I don't think that seven men of this Commission can come to a true conclusion.
"What it will be, it will be an analysis of what the FBI and the Secret Service and the Dallas police have--mainly speculation and opinion of other people. Now, Mr. [Mark] Lane has affidavits, I understand, from the same witnesses that have made statements to the Dallas police, which are contrary to those particular statements.
"I implore you--I implore you, in the name of justice, to let my son, Lee Harvey Oswald, who is accused of assassinating the President, and I, the mother of this man, who is the accused's mother, be represented by counsel. We have information pertinent to this case. My daughter-in-law is the only one who has
testified. ....
"I can prove the statements that I say. And I believe in this way you will have a true picture, and a much better picture, because as you are going along you will be having both sides, and won't have to wait to analyze the situation in the end, as the testimony is being given by each individual, right then and there you will have the other party's testimony..."
EARL WARREN -- "...May I say to you, first, that the Commission is not here to prosecute your dead son. It is not here and it was not established to prosecute anyone. It is the purpose and the province of the Commission to obtain all the facts that it can obtain, and then make an impartial report--not as a prosecutor, but as an impartial Commission--on the manner in which the President came to his death.
"We are trying to recognize the individual rights of all persons who are called before the Commission, to let them have their lawyers, and let their lawyers have an opportunity to examine them, as well as the Commission. You may be sure that if Mr. Lane has any evidence of his own knowledge, or has any accumulation of affidavits from others, to the effect--to any effect, concerning this trial, that he will have an opportunity to come here, just as you are here, in order to present those to the Commission.
"But so far as his being here at all times before the Commission to cross-examine or to be present when all witnesses are testifying--that is not in accordance with the procedures of the Commission. But I assure you that if Mr. Lane has any evidence of any kind bearing upon the assassination of the President, he will be accorded the same opportunity that you have to come here and present them, and we will give him an opportunity in his own way to tell his story, and present his own evidence. And should he want counsel, he may have counsel also."
MARGUERITE OSWALD -- "I appreciate and I understand exactly what you have told me, Chief Justice Warren. But there is one thing--and, of course, I will have to accept your decision, and will be most happy to have Mr. Lane present his testimony the way you have suggested. However, I am not in agreement with you.
"One point I want to make clear. We do not know the questions that you are asking of myself or Marina or the other witnesses. And I contend that you cannot ask them the pertinent questions because you don't know what I know, and what Mr. Lane knows. And so you will still have an analysis in the long run, a conclusion..."
EARL WARREN -- "On that particular thing, may I say this: It is true that we don't know how to examine you at the present time because we don't know what you have to present to this Commission. But we are affording you the opportunity before we ask you any questions to tell your story, in your own way. Then we should know what questions we want to ask of you."
MARGUERITE OSWALD -- "Yes, sir. I understand that thoroughly. But I am a human being, going through a life story from childhood, and I may forget something that my counsel would know. And that applies to witnesses. They may forget to testify something that my counsel has facts on. I will have to accept your verdict, but I don't do it graciously. I want that for [the] record."
EARL WARREN -- "Yes. Well, that is all right, Mrs. Oswald. You may state that for the record."
MARGUERITE OSWALD -- "I have one other stipulation or request. When I tell my story, I will be including people in my story that possibly you don't know of. I request that I have the privilege, through you, of course, to subpoena these people that are in connection with the story that I tell, if you do not have the names already. And I feel sure that I have some information that you don't know about, and there are some people involved.
"I also request that after my testimony, that Marina Oswald...will then testify again, if you see fit. And I believe that I have contrary testimony to her testimony that would make it necessary for her to be recalled. I ask that that be granted."
EARL WARREN -- "Well, Mrs. Oswald, of course you have no power of subpoena, and we have no power to give you the power of subpoena. But you may be sure that if your evidence produces anything that is critical to this investigation, that we will pursue it to the end, in order to determine the weight of the testimony for our final report. You may be sure of that."
MARGUERITE OSWALD -- "I appreciate that."
EARL WARREN -- "But as to how we do it, or when we do it, you will just have to leave that to the Commission."
MARGUERITE OSWALD -- "You will give me the assurance that these people I name, regardless of title I am liable to name some very important people---"
EARL WARREN -- "No, we cannot give you any assurance, because we don't know---"
MARGUERITE OSWALD -- "I see no reason, then, for my testimony."
EARL WARREN -- "Well, Mrs. Oswald, you cannot commit us to subpoenaing anybody. We don't know. You are talking to us, and we are in the dark. You cannot commit this Commission to doing something that might be improper; it might not even be helpful in any way, shape, or form.
"The Commission will be reasonable in every respect. We have no desire to protect anyone. We have no desire to injure you or anyone else in this matter. And certainly you ought to have some confidence in a commission that is appointed by the President, and not try to tie our hands in a way that would be contrary to the manner in which commissions normally proceed."
MARGUERITE OSWALD -- "Now, Mr. Warren, you made a statement that you in no way--I cannot quote your words--intimidate me. But you did not include my son. My son is being accused of the murder of President Kennedy. And I think that my son should be considered in this. He is dead. But we can show cause that my son is not the assassin of President Kennedy. And so I would like my son--he is the main object of the Presidential Commission, is he not, sir?"
EARL WARREN -- "No, no, he is not, Mrs. Oswald. The purpose of this Commission is to determine what the facts are in the assassination of President Kennedy. It is not an accusation against your son. There was an accusation against your son in the Texas courts. That is an entirely different proceeding. We are here to do justice and be fair to everyone concerned in this matter. And I assure you that that is our main and our only purpose in serving on this Commission. None of us cherish this responsibility."
MARGUERITE OSWALD -- "I am sure, sir."
EARL WARREN -- "And the only satisfaction we can derive from it is to be fair to all concerned. And I assure you that is our objective in the matter."
MARGUERITE OSWALD -- "I do not mean to imply that this Commission will not be fair. I know about the men on the Commission. And they are all very fine men, including yourself, Chief Justice Warren. If I have implied that, I will now say I do not imply. But I do state a fact that I do not think that you can come to a true conclusion. I want that for [the] record."
[DVP -- Since it's fairly clear that Marguerite wants to run the whole show herself, maybe Chief Justice Warren should have just turned over his title as Commission Chairman to Marguerite. Ya think?]
MARGUERITE OSWALD -- "I mentioned to Mrs. Rosenthal that Lee and Marina didn't have a baby bed, and Lee didn't have work clothes. .... He needed work clothes since he got this job. .... So she got out a lot of work clothes that her husband didn't want. However, she asked me [to pay her] $10 for 12 pairs of used pants. And I would not buy--give her $12 [sic?].
"Here is a very wealthy woman, and she knows the story. And she knows that I have no money. And yet she expects me to pay for his used clothing. And so I have this principle about me. And I did not buy the used clothing--the clothing for Lee."
[DVP -- As was discovered after President Kennedy's assassination, most topics seemed to boil down to one thing for Marguerite Oswald---money. Another good illustration of this fact is brought out in the book quote shown below:
"The doorbell rings [at the home of Ruth Paine on the night of November 22, 1963] and two men from LIFE magazine appear unannounced. .... Marguerite is fuming...because she's beginning to realize that LIFE magazine is going to do a "life story" segment and she wants to be paid. In her paranoid mind, Marguerite is beginning to suspect that Ruth Paine invited LIFE magazine to come over and that she and Marina, while speaking in Russian, have conspired to sell Lee's life story without her." -- From Page 168 of Vincent Bugliosi's 2007 book "Reclaiming History: The Assassination Of President John F. Kennedy"]
MARGUERITE OSWALD -- "They [Lee and Marina] lived at a corner house, and there is Carol Street, and opposite Carol Street is a parking lot for Montgomery Ward. They live approximately two blocks from Montgomery Ward. So I had gone by, as I am stating, several times. You have to understand--this is just 6 or 7 weeks that they are in this home. ....
"Marina was not home. I could not understand where so fast that they could have so many friends, that this Russian girl didn't speak English and know her way about, could be gone all day long. That worried me. So I sat in the car on Montgomery Ward's parking lot, where I could see the house, because I wanted to see who Marina was going to come home with. The door was open. I went in the house and no one was there. By this time, I was wondering how she could be gone all the time, being a stranger in town. I sat in the car all day long. She didn't show up. ....
"So...two days later I went to the home and my son was reading...and Marina was in the bedroom. .... I went into the bedroom, and she was nursing June with her head down. And I started to talk. And she still had her head down. And I came around to the front and I saw Marina with a black eye.
"Now, gentlemen, I don't think any man should hit his wife...or beat his wife. But I will say this. There may be times that a woman needs to have a black eye. I am not condoning the act. But I strongly am saying that this girl was not home. And this man was working. And I saw, myself, that this man came home and didn't have any food. This couple doesn't have a maid or anyone to give this working man food. And I think it was her duty to be home and have his supper ready. That is a little thing, maybe. But to me it shows the character of what I am trying to bring out."
[DVP -- Yeah, it shows the "character" of a man who gave his wife a black eye because she wasn't home and supper wasn't on the table when he got home from work (according to Marguerite's version anyway). Nice "character", huh?]
[DVP -- Below is a hunk of hilarious testimony from the lips of Marguerite "IT ALL COMES DOWN TO CASH" Oswald, wherein she manages to twist things around to suit her odd way of thinking:]
MARGUERITE OSWALD -- "Mrs. Paine...said, "You don't have to worry about Marina. Marina will always have a home with me, because Marina helps." Now, Mrs. Paine speaks Russian fluently. .... Mr. and Mrs. Paine are separated. Mr. Paine does not live here. So it is just the two women. So, Mrs. Paine didn't graciously do anything for Marina, as the paper stated--that Lee never did pay Mrs. Paine for room or board.
"Mrs. Paine owes them money. That is almost the kind of work that I do, or the airline stewardesses do, serve food and everything. Marina was earning her keep, and really should have had a salary for it. What I am trying to say, gentlemen, Mrs. Paine had Marina there to help babysit with the children--with her children--if she wanted to go running around and everything. So actually she wasn't doing my son or Marina the favor that she claims she was doing."
[DVP -- Classic Marguerite! Mrs. Paine was providing Marina with not only a place to live and food to eat--free of charge--for several weeks in October and November of 1963 (and for two additional weeks in late April and early May of '63 while Lee Harvey looked for work in New Orleans) --- but Ruth was also providing Marina and her children with additional services as well, such as transportation to and from New Orleans (twice), which were occasions that also had Ruth's station wagon performing double duty as a moving van.
And there were also the free car rides to and from various doctors' offices (on multiple occasions); plus the trip to and from Parkland Hospital, where Marina gave birth to her second baby in October '63.
And Marguerite Oswald then has the nerve to suggest, on the public record in front of the Warren Commission, that Ruth Paine owes MARINA money!
Somebody help me pick up my jaw, which is currently stuck firmly to the floor....because the outrageousness of what I just read in Marguerite's Warren Commission testimony is pretty overwhelming. And yet at the same time, when based on the overall record concerning Mrs. Marguerite Oswald, it's fairly typical too.]
MARGUERITE OSWALD -- "Mr. Odum is an FBI agent. And I said, "No, we are going to see Lee." .... So he said, "Well, will you tell Mrs. [Marina] Oswald, please"--to the interpreter--"I would like to question her and I would like her to come with me to be questioned."
"I said, "It is no good. You don't need to tell the interpreter that, because my daughter-in-law is not going with you. We have been promised to see Lee. And, besides, Marina has testified, made her statement at the courthouse yesterday, and any further statements that Marina will make will be through counsel."
"Mr. Odum said to the interpreter, "Mrs. Oswald"--to the interpreter--"will you tell Mrs. Oswald to decide what she would like to do and not listen to her mother-in-
[DVP -- Sounds like darn good advice if you ask me. ;)]
MARGUERITE OSWALD -- "I would say I spent about 3 or 4 minutes on the telephone [at the Dallas City Jail, talking with Lee, on 11/23/63], and then Marina came back to the telephone and talked with Lee. So we left. Marina started crying. Marina says, "Mama, I tell Lee I love Lee and Lee says he love me very much. And Lee tell me to make sure I buy shoes for June."
"Now, here is a man that is accused of the murder of a President. This is the next day, or let's say about 24 hours that he has been questioned. His composure is good. And he is thinking about his young daughter needing shoes. Now, June was wearing shoes belonging to Mrs. Paine's little girl; Marina told me they were little red tennis shoes, and the top was worn. They were clean, and the canvas was showing by the toe part, like children wear out their toes.
"I ask you this, gentlemen. If Marina had a hundred and some odd dollars in the house, why is it necessary that my son has to tell her at the jailhouse, remind her to buy shoes for his baby, for their child? Just a few dollars out of that hundred and some odd dollars would have bought shoes for this particular child.
"Another way to look at this, as I stated previously--that the boy is concerned about shoes for his baby, and he is in this awful predicament. So he must feel innocent, or sure that everything is going to be all right, as he told me."
[DVP -- Or, we could look at Lee's "Buy Those Shoes" request in another light -- from the perspective of Lee being guilty of killing President Kennedy (which is so obviously the correct perspective, based on the sum total of evidence to be found in the JFK case).
If Lee had been FALSELY accused of murdering the President (or had been "framed" by a person or persons unknown), would you expect his "I'm Really Innocent And I'm Being Framed For Murder" mindset to be of such a tranquil and serene state that, just 24 hours after being charged with two murders he says he did not commit (including Officer Tippit's), he's not concentrating fully on these TWO charges of first-degree murder that are pending against him -- but, instead, his mind is so free of worry about these vile and supposedly FALSE charges that are staring him in the face that he's actually concentrating on mundane and trivial things....like worrying about whether or not Marina has bought a pair of shoes for his oldest daughter?
The jailhouse comments made by Lee Oswald about "buying shoes for Junie" don't PROVE anything, one way or the other, of course. I don't deny that fact. But I'm just wondering if such comments aren't more indicative of a guilty man who has just been accused of double-murder (and knows, of course, full well that he's guilty and will likely receive the proper punishment), versus that of an innocent man who is facing the same two FALSE murder charges?
That's some food for "Junie's Shoes" thought at any rate.
"No one knew [Lee Harvey] Oswald as well as his wife, Marina. .... Marina told [author Priscilla] McMillan that when she visited her husband in jail on the day after the assassination, she came away knowing he was guilty. .... She said she knew that had he been innocent, he would have been screaming to high heaven for his "rights," claiming he had been mistreated and demanding to see officials at the very highest levels." -- Vincent Bugliosi; Page 962 of "Reclaiming History"
"Marina could tell that he was guilty. If he hadn't been, she thought, he would have been loudly protesting his arrest, and besides, she sensed that he was saying goodbye to her with his eyes." -- From Page 249 of Jean Davison's 1983 book "Oswald's Game"]
MARGUERITE OSWALD -- "They didn't want us to know [that Lee had been shot]. They are now telling us this, Marina and I. He talked, and then he turned around and said, "Lee has been shot." I said, "How badly?" He said, "In the shoulder." I cried, and said, "Marina, Lee has been shot." ....
"So I am sitting in the car with the agent. .... Something comes over the mike, and the Secret Service agent says, "Do not repeat. Do not repeat." I said, "My son is gone, isn't he?" And he didn't answer. I said, "Answer me. I want to know. If my son is gone, I want to meditate." He said, "Yes, Mrs. Oswald, your son has just expired"."
MARGUERITE OSWALD -- "We were escorted upstairs into a room. They said it was a morgue, but it wasn't. Lee's body was on a hospital bed. .... And there were a lot of policemen standing around, guarding the body. And, of course, his face was showing. And Marina went first. She opened his eyelids. Now...I am a nurse, and I don't think I could have done that. This is a very, very strong girl, that she can open a dead man's eyelids. And she says, "He cry. He eye wet." .... I didn't even touch Lee. I just wanted to see that it was my son---"
J. LEE RANKIN -- "You were satisfied it was your son?"
MARGUERITE OSWALD -- "Yes, sir. That is why I wanted to see the body. I wanted to make sure it was my son. So while leaving the room, I said to the police, "I think some day you will hang your heads in shame...I happen to...know some facts, that maybe this is the unsung hero of this episode. And I, as his mother, intend to provide this if I can"."
MARGUERITE OSWALD -- "I did say...I wanted my son buried in the Arlington Cemetery. Now, gentlemen, I didn't know that President Kennedy was going to be buried in Arlington Cemetery. All I know is that my son is an agent, and that he deserves to be buried in Arlington Cemetery."
[DVP -- I guess everybody is entitled to their fantasies -- including the mother of Presidential assassin Lee Harvey Oswald.]
MARGUERITE OSWALD -- "I don't remember if I stated while at Six Flags that this particular agent...was very, very rude to me. Anything that I said, he snapped. And I took it for quite a while. At this particular time that they showed the gun on television, I said, "How can they say Lee shot the President? Even though they would prove it is his gun doesn't mean he used it--nobody saw him use it." He snapped back and he said, "Mrs. Oswald, we know that he shot the President."
"I then walked over to Mr. Mike Howard and I said, "What's wrong with that agent? That agent is about to crack. All he has done is taunt me ever since I have been here." He said, "Mrs. Oswald, he was personal bodyguard to Mrs. Kennedy for 30 months and maybe he has a little opinion against you." I said, "Let him keep his personal opinions to himself. He is on a job"."
MARGUERITE OSWALD -- "Now, there was another instance with this same agent. He followed Marina around continuously. I'm going to make this plain. .... The pictures will always show him by Marina. We were in the bedroom, and he was in the bedroom. And we were getting ready for the funeral [of LHO]. .... While Marina was complaining about her dress, my little grandbaby...was standing by her mother...and Marina was combing her hair. She took the comb and she hit June on the head. I said, "Marina, don't do that." And this agent...snapped at me and said, "Mrs. Oswald, you let her alone." I said, "Don't tell me what to say to my daughter-in-law. .... Now, why did this man do these things? ....
"I am going to say it as strongly as I can...and I have stated this from the beginning...I think our trouble in this is in our own Government. And I suspect these two agents of conspiracy with my daughter-in-law in this plot."
EARL WARREN -- "With who?"
MARGUERITE OSWALD -- "With Marina and Mrs. Paine--the two women. Lee was set up, and it is quite possible these two Secret Service men are involved."
J. LEE RANKIN -- "Which ones are you referring to?"
MARGUERITE OSWALD -- "Mr. Mike Howard and the man that I did not know the name." ....
J. LEE RANKIN -- "What kind of a conspiracy are you describing that these men are engaged in?"
MARGUERITE OSWALD -- "The assassination of President Kennedy."
J. LEE RANKIN -- "You think that two Secret Service agents and Marina and Mrs. Paine were involved in that--in the conspiracy?"
MARGUERITE OSWALD -- "Yes, I do."
[DVP -- Marina was probably the "Grassy Knoll" shooter....and Ruth Paine drove the getaway car (that Nash Rambler seen by Dallas Deputy Sheriff Roger Craig, remember). We'll just have to invent a way for the two Secret Service agents to become embroiled in this plot with the two housewives. But that shouldn't be too difficult to do -- after all, Marguerite has managed it quite nicely, while using zero pieces of evidence to support her notion.]
MARGUERITE OSWALD -- "Marina...stated publicly that in her mind she thought that Lee shot President Kennedy. What an awful thing for this 22-year-old foreign girl to think. She thinks in her mind. She doesn't know. But she thinks, gentlemen..."In my mind, I think Lee shot President Kennedy." She doesn't know our American way of life. Lee Harvey Oswald will be the accused assassin of President Kennedy when this information is over with, believe me. .... Marina Oswald was brainwashed by the Secret Service. .... I am sorry, gentlemen, but this is a true story."
[DVP -- I can envision Earl Warren and Gerald Ford, et al, being forced to cover their faces at various times during Mrs. Oswald's testimony, so that Marguerite wouldn't be aware that the Commissioners were about ready to bust out laughing at any moment (such as during the "brainwashed" testimony quoted above).]
J. LEE RANKIN -- "And you think she [Marina] could understand English fluently?"
MARGUERITE OSWALD -- "Yes, sir. I also told you when she lived with me that month in my home, how we conversed and talked. And yet the impression is that Marina came here and didn't speak English at all."
J. LEE RANKIN -- "How does that show she conspired to assassinate the President?"
MARGUERITE OSWALD -- "Because Marina now is not happy."
[DVP -- I guess it never occurred to Marguerite that a major reason for Marina to suddenly turn into an unhappy person after November 22nd is due to the fact that she has had to face a series of crises -- such as: her husband being accused of murdering two people (including the U.S. President) and the fact that her husband was himself killed just two days after the President was slain.
But evidently, according to Marguerite, Marina's sudden turn from happy to unhappy was because Marina herself was part of some sort of plot to kill the President in which she apparently helped to FRAME HER OWN HUSBAND for that murder.
The further we get into Marguerite's testimony, the more obvious it becomes that this woman is slightly off her rocker.]
MARGUERITE OSWALD -- "It is also a serious charge that my son is the assassin of President Kennedy. You see, we have two sides here. .... Lee Harvey Oswald, or Mr. J. Lee Rankin, or anyone in this room could not have been in that many places in 29 minutes' time. It is utterly impossible. ....
"The reports said that he was on the sixth floor, and then they saw him in the cafeteria drinking a Coca-Cola, and the President came. Then he had to leave the building. He had so many blocks to walk before he caught a bus. He had to board the bus, he had to pay his fare, he had to get out of the bus, then he walked a few blocks, then he caught a taxicab, paid the taxi man, then he walked a few blocks, went to his home and got a coat. Then he walked a few more blocks and shot the policeman. Then he walked a few more blocks and he was in the theater. In 29 minutes' time, it cannot be done."
[DVP -- And it wasn't done in just "29 minutes". Mrs. Oswald, for some reason, seems to think that all of the above things were accomplished between 12:30 and 12:59 PM on 11/22/63, which is an incorrect timeline. In actuality, Lee Oswald had approximately 1 hour and 10 minutes to perform all of the above tasks laid out by Marguerite.]
MARGUERITE OSWALD -- "Well, now, Mr. Rankin, I have not changed my testimony, if you are implying that. I may not have put it in a position you understood. because as I say, I certainly did not mean to imply that I had proof, because if I had proof [of a conspiracy to kill JFK] I would not be sitting here taking all my energy and trying to show you this little by little. I would have had an affidavit and show you the proof. So if you want to call it speculation, call it speculation. I don't care what you call it. But I am not satisfied in my mind that things are according to Hoyle. And I believe that my son is innocent."
[DVP -- So, Mrs. Oswald apparently thinks that if she (or somebody else whom she thinks has knowledge of some grand conspiracy "plot") had filled out and signed an official "affidavit", that would, therefore, be tantamount to "proof" that a conspiracy did, in fact, exist with respect to the President's murder in Dallas.
I guess it didn't bother Marguerite one bit that there was NO PHYSICAL EVIDENCE at all to support any of her conspiracy theories (and there still isn't any such hard evidence of that kind to this day).
It would have been enough, per the elder Mrs. Oswald, to merely have an "affidavit" on file (signed by Marguerite? Or somebody else?) stating that some kind of "conspiracy" existed on November 22, 1963.
What a kook.
And to think that the Commission had to sit there in Washington for three solid days and listen to this nutcase ramble on and on about absolutely nothing of any consequence whatsoever....and, on top of that, the Commission had to endure Marguerite's absurd make-believe tale of perceived "conspiracy" involving Ruth Paine, Marina Oswald, Mike Howard, and another unnamed Secret Service agent.
And this kook wanted to be awarded the power to subpoena witnesses of her own choosing! Ain't that a hoot?!]
MARGUERITE OSWALD -- "That [Commission Exhibit No. 203] is a picture of the Book Depository the day of the assassination of President Kennedy. And there are people in the picture."
EARL WARREN -- "Well, is there anything you want us to see in the picture?"
MARGUERITE OSWALD -- "Well, I would rather you see it yourself. I see what I see."
EARL WARREN -- "What do you see?"
MARGUERITE OSWALD -- "...I see Marina and the child--the girl and the baby--it could be Marina. .... This girl with this baby could possibly be Marina and June. .... This girl holding the baby."
J. LEE RANKIN -- "Right next to the door?"
MARGUERITE OSWALD -- "Yes, sir; right next to the door. In back of her is the hat of a man."
[The following day, 2/12/64, Marguerite testified some more about the things she thinks she sees in the famous photo taken by James Altgens, which is pictured above....]
MARGUERITE OSWALD -- "On the picture...you might think I am crazy to say so--the first thing I saw in this picture...was my son, Lee, and Marina and the child. .... That was my first reaction. And, if I am correct--I don't say I am correct--but if I am correct, this would be the solution. Lee was escorted out of the building. Kennedy is shot now...he has passed the window where Lee's rifle is supposed to be. And he is shot in the neck. He has passed this particular part. He is shot in the neck. And then this man that I think is Lee...is being escorted out of the building...I am speculating, sir, I have no proof of this. I wish I did. Could be escorted out of the building by a policeman. .... This is Lee's build and everything. The first thing I saw. Now, they think this is Lee. No, sir, I do not. Everybody thinks this is Lee."
J. LEE RANKIN -- "When you say they think--it is the man leaning against the side of the doorway, is that right?"
MARGUERITE OSWALD -- "Yes. That is the picture that everybody is convinced is Lee."
J. LEE RANKIN -- "And you think it is the one next to him that doesn't show any face? It shows the arms over the head?"
MARGUERITE OSWALD -- "He has his arms up in the air. Now, that is what I saw immediately--against everybody else seeing it. And this woman and child could possibly be Marina. Now, to explain this--whether I thought Lee shot Officer Tippit or not--Lee could be escorted out of this building with a gun in his back possibly. I am just speculating, sir. .... And that is how he got out of the building. And this same officer could have been killed, because he was involved in this, and then he could have been killed, to be kept quiet. There is a possibility of this, gentlemen."
[DVP -- So, per Marguerite, BOTH Lee Oswald and Marina Oswald were probably standing in front of the Texas School Book Depository Building when JFK was shot.
You see, if you are taking part in a covert plot to assassinate the President, instead of laying low and staying out of sight, I guess it must be a good idea to make yourself HIGHLY VISIBLE as the murder is taking place, so that you will very likely get yourself photographed.
This apparently was Marguerite Oswald's mindset as of February 1964 when she hinted to the Warren Commission that both Lee and Marina can be seen in James Altgens' picture.
Well, at least Altgens' photo provided Lee and Marina with perfect alibis in case they were to ever be accused of being actual gunmen in Dealey Plaza. (Or perhaps the baby in the picture is really a gun--merely disguised as a baby in a blanket.)
It's just too bad that Lee Harvey decided NOT to use that perfect "I Was On The Steps" alibi after he was charged with the murder of the President. Instead, Lee admits to the press and to the world (on live television) that he was "inside" the Book Depository when Kennedy was shot:
I wonder if Marguerite ever wondered WHY Lee never spoke up and told the police that he had been in front of the building....if he had REALLY been there at 12:30 PM on November 22nd?
And if Lee was being "escorted out of the building by a policeman...with a gun in his back" [LOL break required here], I wonder which "Lee Harvey Oswald" imposter popped up on the second floor of the TSBD just 90 seconds after the assassination?
Maybe we should hold a seance and ask Marguerite. She could probably tell us. Marguerite Oswald died in January 1981.]
"Lee Harvey Oswald, my son, even after his death, has done more for his country than any other living human being." -- Marguerite Oswald; circa late 1963; At Rose Hill Cemetery in Fort Worth, Texas [Video clip of this quote.]

RESTEasy: Where did the hypermedia go to?
Some friends have asked what are the major differences between Restfulie and RESTEasy client frameworks.
Strong coupling and hypermedia awareless
As of today, Resteasy requires you to create an interface mapping every resource operation to a specific method, using @VerbName and @Path annotations to specify the desired target URI.
RESTEasy is ignoring the power of hypermedia content on the client side, thus being level 2 according to Leonard Richardson, and not matching Roy Fielding's description.
RESTEasy is not Roy's REST
But hypertext as the engine of hypermedia state is also about late binding of application alternatives that guide the client through whatever it is that we are trying to provide as a service.
And any effort spent describing what methods to use on what URIs of interest should be entirely defined within the scope of the processing rules for a media type
Guess what? Java interfaces with @VerbName + @Path annotations means early binding, means an effort trying to describe which methods to use on which URI's: tighter coupling, less space to evolve your server systems.
Going further:
It is fundamental to the goal of removing all coupling aside from the standardized data formats and the initial bookmark URI.
Restfulie provides a way to access only the initial bookmark URI, everything else is derived from navigating through your resources and its states.
Roy's dissertation puts his believe quite clear in hypermedia being an important point of the web in chapter 5, his first paragraph: "Representational State Transfer (REST) architectural style for distributed hypermedia systems".
RESTEasy got it right when it allows the user to access multiple URIs and the http protocol as the application protocol. But it still helps creating strongly coupled systems. Those who use JAXB (JAX-RS required) and fixed xml schemas do not allow server to evolve without prior notice to their clients. Ian Robinson has written about links in his blog and – another option – contract based systems in ThoughtWorks Anthology.
Back in 2007, there was a nice discussion on SOA allowing the users to create strongly coupled systems, where Mark Baker cleared it: SOA is constraintless, therefore one can create strongly and loosely coupled systems.
RESTEasy not supporting hypermedia content by default matches Roy's definition of unrestful:
In other words, not RESTful at all. REST without the hypertext constraint is like pipe-and-filter without the pipes: completely useless because it no longer induces any interesting properties.
Although RESTEasy supports atom feeds, which is a good point, if the client wants a real hypemedia aware resource, he has to work on the deserialization process on his own.
RESTEasy does not provide the class generation mechanism that Restfulie (both Java and Ruby) provides so end users are able to transverse your resource's tree and states without prior knowledge of every other URI.
According to Roy, one of the key benefits of the REST archicture style is its visibility through out the entire layered system:
REST is an architectural style that, when followed, allows components to carry out their functions in a way that maximizes the most important architectural properties of a multi-organizational, network-based information system. In particular, it maximizes the growth of identified information within that system, which increases the utility of the system as a whole.
By fixing all URI's on the client side, along with not supporting hypermedia content by default, RESTEasy provides less information to layers contained between the server and the client: thus less visibility.
Server side
The same issues arrive when talking about the server side: RESTEasy does not provide any default interface for hypermedia content, but JAX-RS default support to JAXB: plain xml. It is up to (good) programmers to know how to make use of hypermedia systems in order to create a loosely coupled system.
Another key point on Restfulie's approach is that it is Java-INdependent. Every month we see a larger number of integration software being developed in other languages: Restfulie can already help Java and Ruby developers.
quit pretending, use the web for real: restfulie
Resource representation
A simple resource representation in xml could be
<order> <product>basic rails course</product> <product>RESTful training</product> <price>500.00</price> </order>
It provides information on the order itself, as we are used to. But it lacks providing meta information on anything related to business process: from here, I am unable to go anywhere.
This resource is unable to lead its consumers through possible steps further on a business flow, i.e. creating a payment or cancelling it.
Looking at this resource, it is clear that it is just an usual "structural representation" of something that programmers would code in C: the data and it's structure: but no possible actions.
Identifying resources
In order to access those resources, one needs to possess its address, its URI.
We use, for example, URIs to identify our courses at Caelum.
The advanced rails training can be accessed through the http://www.caelum.com.br/curso/rr-75-ruby-rails-avancado/ URI and also through http://www.caelum.com.br/curso/rr-75.
Note that there is no need to have an unique URI to resource or resource to URI mapping. In our case, the latter URI redirects to the first one through an http permanently moved response.
Web services
One can understand web services as services which use the web as its infrastructure. The basic step to create a web service is to use http requests to act.
Typical SOA applications will stop its evolution and its use of the web infrastructure here, not profiting from everything else that the web provides.
Resources accessed through the web
Once I have an URI in my hands, and a web service that provides me the resource representation through a web request (typically a GET request), one receives as output the requested resource representation.
Using different HTTP verbs and analyzing the request and result headers and codes, one makes and profits from further usage of the web infrastructures such as caching proxies and fault tolerance assurance due to idempotent methods.
Frameworks and applications, like the one from the spring blog, which provides the first level of web infrastructure usage would be called resource based web services (RBWS) if they were not lacking the use of the most common web aspect: hypermedia.
According to Roy Fieldings, "REST is defined by four interface constraints: identification of resources; manipulation of resources through representations; self-descriptive messages; and, hypermedia as the engine of application state."
Web service based CRUD
Web service based cruds are those ressemblingthe spring tutorial, which maps URIs to resources and allows the usage of different HTTP Verb, headers and return codes to sign actions and return values.
Although being a sign of better usage of the web in order to create web-based services, it is still missing the very best part of our every day life: hyperlinks and hypermedia content.
Doing CRUDs is an everyday task, and doing service based CRUD implementation is a nice and cute functionality that frameworks as rails, spring and vraptor allows us to do.
According to Leonard Richardson model, one can roughly categorize his usage of the web infrastructure based on which use one makes out of it. CRUD over the web is just the first step, and hypermedia support is the following one.
Hypermedia aware resources
Resources supporting hypermedia provide consumers the next steps to follow on an application business flow. It allows the consumer to change the application state as web requests are stateless.
The following code shows an example of xml+hypermedia representation of the same order seen earlier:
<order> <product>basic rails course</product> <product>RESTful training</product> <refresh>http://www.caelum.com.br/orders/1</refresh> <update>http://www.caelum.com.br/orders/1</update> <pay>http://www.caelum.com.br/orders/1/pay</pay> <destroy>http://www.caelum.com.br/orders/1</destroy> </order>
Note that this path is a simple yet powerful way of interacting with your clients. Although its a valid option, one can make use of the w3c atom format as nowadays there are hundreds of important tools atom-aware:

Both Jim and Savas have commented on the client simple javascript+html resource+hypermedia (restful?) client that we have created so one could easily test a restful application online.
So me and Caue Guerra at Caelum were ready to move to the next step: getting resource+hypermedia support to rails applications.
SOA applications, due to strange and dark forces, typically demand dozens of developers to built something complex and hard to maintain.
With this in mind, we have developed Restfulie, which is a rails based gem.
It works both on the server and client side making it easier to provide and consume such restful resources.
Requesting a resource
A resource based web services provider – another long name for a partial rest implementation based on roy's dissertation – can access a resource through the api:
order = Order.from_web 'http://www.caelum.com.br/orders/1'
Now, one can request its content
puts order.products
or even invoke those "methods":
order.pay payment order.cancel payment = order.check_payment_info
All those three methods are remote invocations (never forget it!) that access the server executing POST, DELETE, PUT and GET operations, serializing and deserializing xml+atom content (or json, …).
Thats about it. You have consumed a resource representation and acted upon it in two lines of code, moving your resource to another state on your business flow.
Meanwhile, on the server side
Those who want to provider RBWS can easily do it using restfulie by implementing the method following_states as follow:
class Order def following_states states = [ { : orders, :action => :show } ] states << : orders, :action => :destroy} if can_cancel? states << : orders, :action => :pay, :id => id} if can_pay? states end end
And in a 6 lines long method, one has implemented a full RBWS provider: all invocations to to_xml and to_json will serialize atom or rel based links to those state transition services.
Live examples
You can try the server side ordering application online and a sample client side application live at heroku.
In order to fully test those systems, follow the "Try it online" directions on the Restfulie website.
This post gives a basic idea on resources, web based services and how one can really use the web to profit from its already existing infrastructure.
While some RBWS providers already use all this knowledge, most of the frameworks that we see today focus on "restful" meaning "accessing a resource through its URI and http verbs". There is more to the web than just getting, posting and uris. There is a whole world hidden behind links so… let's quit pretending and start using the web infrastructure for real.
Using the web infrastructure
Some recent posts here and at our company's blog were dealing on how to use the web as an infrastructure for distributing an algorithm, but this post is related to how to supply a service or resource based system using some of the web infrastructure.
Last year, at Falando em Java 2009, Jim Webberr spoke about HATEOAS, Microformats and how hipermedia content could add to a servicing system.
Based on his upcoming book and some of the ideas presented on his blog, I have created a small project with the help of Adriano Almeida and Lucas Cavalcanti at Caelum to help others explore some of those topics in a easy way.
Two simple projects show off what hypermedia content can do to simple resource/service based applications.
The server application is responsible for a small and simple ordering system where one:
1. sends an order (post)
2. requests it's status (get)
3. sends an update (post)
4. cancel it (delete)
5. pay it (post)
Actions 3-5 are made available through action 2: by getting the resource representation, one can parse it and find its available actions – leaving it to a human-programmed software to request the next step in its flow or, for those who see flow automation as a good thing, for an automatic generic client to decide whats the next step.
The client application is responsible for being a "generic client". But a generic client can be something harmful too so its one designed for those users who want to test their servers and learn how those resources work.
In order to try out the applications, you can use the google app engine infrastructure and follow the steps below:
Entry Point
Every resource/service based application has a single or set of entry points. From the point of view that such integrated systems should be programmed by humans (and not entirely automated), the consumer application should be aware of the entry point and its http verb, therefore:
Access http://restful-client.appspot.com/ and try to post an order to:
a) entry point: http://restful-server.appspot.com/order
b) method: POST
c) name: content
d) content: any order content (it will not be validated)
This is a well-known entry point and both client and server application are aware and agreed on that. By following that mindset, one will have a set of those entry points that are aware for both sides.
Those who look for fully automated services or systems will probably create a single starting point containing a GET request which results in the set of former entry points.
Running the consumer application
PAY ATTENTION: you might need to run it twice when you first run it. google app engine has a slow startup time that
might run a timeout prior to succeeding.
After posting the order, you will receive a 201 response with your order location.
You can then view (GET) this order to see its representation. By parsing the representation, one can discover what you can do with your order:
– pay (request a payment POST)
– cancel (request an order DELETE)
– update (request an order UPDATE)
– view (request an order GET)
Anytime you can check your order status by getting it. After payment your status will change to PREPARING and after one minute it will be DONE. If you cancel your order, it will be CANCELED.
While the client application is mostly a javascript+html view of what is being consumed, it still contains some vraptor serving our requests. This way we were forced to visualize for the first time how can we generalize a little bit the idea so we create a somehow generic consumer library in Java.
At the same time, a ruby version of the server side library supporting services-aware-resources will be released here soon. The java version is also being built around vraptor already. The next step is to build a ruby library – due to its dynamic nature, one can create really nice resource representations on the client side of what we just received from the server.
Those interested in helping us are welcome to mail me.
Although its a simple server application, it is a good way to show how to use the web as an infrastructure in a little bit more than the (rest-non-ful) CRUD examples found on the web.

Surplus Musical Instrument Auctions
Assortment of 57 timepieces including pocket watches, deck watches, and chronometers, many with army historical past reminiscent of Admiral Robert Peary, Discipline Marshal Erwin Rommel, Admiral David G. Farragut, Sir Ernest Shackleton, Captain E.V. Rickenbacker, General James Doolittle, Admiral Richard E. Byrd & others. Biller, who mentioned he works in video manufacturing, is a daily at each the auctions and the retail store, which sells smaller portions of barely less esoteric items. In response to Kurakin, organising public auctions will be the simplest approach to dump the navy property to fascinated customers. Convey good to the world and use probably the most highly effective coupons on earth whereas purchasing at Government Navy Surplus Public sale.
Thies & Johnson Army Auctions has approximately 1 staff at this location. Dec 17 2016 Tontitown, AR, Property Military Collectors Auction 9:30AM nfo: Larry R. WIlliams, 19847 Sonora Road, Springdale, AR 72764; H. 479-756-0238 C. 479-466-2415; www. In actual fact, most surplus Humvees and trucks price between $4,000-7,000 in an auction-type format. Kurakin says that organising the sale of the package themselves could be an added drain on the navy finances.
The web site holds web auctions from the federal government agency's forfeited, seized, found or surplus objects, which normally are sitting in a warehouse within the at regulation enforcement agencies and metropolis municipalities. Historic arms and navy antiques deliver historical past to life and inform the story of soldiers, generals, and others whose lives had been modified by struggle. Find out why it's best to go to customs or police auctions or indeed any others run by authorities bodies. Some military surplus vehicles are nice for many who have a big yard or acreage that's too huge or troublesome to stroll around. You can also get Government Army Surplus Auction deals on all the gear.

The enzyme RNA polymerase works to produce primary transcript RNA, according to Nature Education. This makes it possible for cells to use DNA genes as templates to create chains of RNA, a process that is known as transcription.
RNA polymerase initiates DNA transcription at the right time, ensures that the right sequences are transcribed and produces the RNA strand that perfectly complements the DNA strand that was copied. RNA polymerase is also capable of making RNA strands longer by adding additional nucleotides, a process that is known as elongation. All of these processes are fundamental to the production of DNA in every living creature.

Where to begin? I guess my acceptance into the "Space Program" would be as good a place as any. I was originally a test pilot, flying experimental aircraft such as the Wyvern X and White Archer. Neither aerospace vessel ever achieved more than suborbital flight. More than once I had to get creative when touching down too. But you know what they say...any landing you can walk away from...
After no less than a two dozen missions, I was eventually reassigned to the rocket division. Some of the guys had already flown around the the Mün and back at that point. Kerbonauts like Bill and Bob were household names. But the powers-that-be weren't content to repeat past accomplishments, they wanted to do even more. The next vehicle the engineering team came up with had a pair of nuclear engines attached to it. The press dubbed it the Lunar Lion, but to me it was a more of a "Shitty Kitty" than anything else. For one thing the RCS fuel tanks were mounted such that the retractable docking port on top couldn't open. The next big problem was its top heavy design. The thing was nearly impossible to land (more on that later). But the worst aspect of the lander was the command pod. Someone got the bright idea of placing it upside-down so that the flight crew could see the ground and landing gear through the windows. That was all well and good except that the dummies forgot to flip the calibration on the navigation systems. We spent the entire flight having to do everything back-asswards; burning on the retrograde mark when we wanted to accelerate and so on.
Launching and orbiting over Kerbin were surprisingly easy, as was the trans-Müner injection. After establishing a low (but stable orbit) over the Mün we started to survey for a suitable landing zone. That's when Bill spotted them. Around the southern and eastern edge of a particularly large crater were two distinct objects of interest. We decided to land at the south target first. And here is where the real problems started. The nuclear engines ran out energy forcing us to ditch them mid-burn. De-clawed, as it were, we overshot the landing zone and had to backtrack to the object using our piddly "tail" thruster. This ended up costing us precious liquid fuel and oxidant. By the time we reached the place we originally wanted to be the gas gauge was a lot closer to "E" than "F". Then came the constant tipping. Every time Bob tried to set the Lion down it started to tip over and he'd have to lift off again. After more attempts that I can recall (honestly, I was completely focused on trying not to barf in my helmet) we eventually came to an upright rest with nothing but fumes left in the tank.
Disembarking was a pain since we had to drop out of the command pod upside-down Both Bill and I banged our helmets on the extend landing legs. after that it was a short twilight jaunt via RCS packs over to the object in question. As it turned out the thing Bill had seen from orbit was a monument to some guy called Neil Armstrong. I have no idea how it got there, but one thing I can say for sure, the lander he used looked a lot better designed than ours.
So, there we were. Stuck on the surface of the Mün, waiting for Kerbin to send someone to come pick us up. The rescue mission involved two vessels. The first was called the Chancy Chariot. It was a towing vessel designed to pull other craft to and from Kerbin. In this case her cargo was an automated lander call-signed Big Kanga. I heard there were a lot of problems getting the lander into orbit and docked with Chancy Chariot (something about backward fuel lines). Regardless both vessels eventually made orbit over the Mün and Big Kanga started its decent. Now, I should take a moment to point out that in order facilitate a rapid recovery of Bill, Bob and I, the engineering team had equipped Big Kanga with a Müner rover nicknamed Little Joey. The plan was to drop Little Joey from the bottom of Big Kanga a few meters above the surface of the Mün. That part went more or less okay. The problem was the remote operating system stayed with the rover and not the lander after detachment. Before control could be switched over, Big Kanga ended up splayed out like a beached space-whale. Several attempts were made to get the lander off the ground and each time failed. In desperation the remote operator tried using the main engines rater than a combination of RCS and landing legs. The resulting explosion left only three small pieces of debris.
The rescue mission was a complete and total failure, but we did get one thing out of the unmitigated disaster, Little Joey. The rover made the trip over to the Lion that night and it was decided that I would take the rover out for an excision. Plenty of propellant was left in the rover and the other eastern object that Bill had spotted from orbit was still out there. So, I mounted up at dawn and drove off clinging to the rover grip bars.
For what it's worth the rover performed decent enough up to 40kph. Pushing it much faster than that though resulted in instability whenever the ground changed inclination. Of course I figured this out the hard way. Needless to say Little Joey was flipped more than once during the excursion. Every twenty minutes or so I stopped the rover to take a break, and each time the words "quick saving" appeared in the upper right corner of my vision. Another oddity I witnessed was the sentence "Cannot time warp while Kerbal is on the ladder" flashing briefly before my eyes once early on. Overall it took me more than two hours to reach the eastern object. At one point I crested a hill and got a direct view of it in the distance. Unfortunately, I was so focused on the object I lost my grip on the bars and fell off. Luckily the only thing injured was my pride.
As I got close the rover began to handle different than before so I transfer what propellant was left into the bottom-most tank to improve handling. All told though Little Joey still had nearly half its original fuel supply when we reached our destination. And what a sight it was!
So, here I am atop the Müner Arch writing the message you have just read. Bill and Bob are still aboard the Lion waiting for my return. The truth is I'd rather stay here though. The view is nicer under the stars. Even though my journey has been long, looking up at the sky I can't help but feel that this is just beginning.

Just a note to say thank you to everyone for all of your e-mails and prayers these past months. I'm surprised and flattered that many of you still think of me and pop by my blog to see if there are any updates. I haven't posted any because as I mentioned previously, this pregnancy has made me very sick and many things have taken a back seat, especially time spent online. For many months I could not work a regular work schedule, often spent days in bed, and spent many days going back and forth to doctors with each new illness I contracted as my immune system took a dive. Things still aren't quite back to normal, but I'm happy to report that my immune system is recovering and I am doing much better. However, I am still very fatigued.
Oh, and I have a fractured ankle. A slip and fall on some wet grass one morning has added a new layer of complications and inconvenience to these difficult months.
I hesitated to post an update since I don't want to give the impression that I'll be returning to blogging anytime soon. We have a beloved baby who will be arriving in just 3 and a half months, and there is still much to do around our home. Rooms are still being built. Floors still need to be finished. Items are being boxed up and moved to make room for our newest family member. Furniture needs to be purchased. If we thought we were busy before, well!
But I still concede that summer is my favorite season, and when people exclaim to me how difficult it must be to pregnant during the summer all I can think is that they must not know how much I truly hate winter. In the summer, it's hot whether you are pregnant or not. But in the winter, I can never get warm enough! I hope all of you are enjoying your summer and that you are able to experience the blessings that this season has to offer.
