Rules specifying faults in a WSDL document

In my case, I have a schema (types.xsd) that defines an InvalidDataException complexType. In order to specify this fault on a Web service method using the d/l/w convention, would I be required to define an element such as
<wsdl:message name="InvalidDataException"> <wsdl:part name="fault" element="tns:InvalidDataException"/> </wsdl:message>
Or could the message simply reference the complexType defined in the types.xsd as follows:
<wsdl:message name="InvalidDataException"> <wsdl:part name="fault" type="types:InvalidDataException"/> </wsdl:message>
SOAP Faults should always be defined as doc/literal regardless of the type of service. Therefore it should be defined as such:
<wsdl:message name="InvalidDataException"> <wsdl:part name="fault" element="tns:InvalidDataException"/> </wsdl:message>
Note that when using doc/literal/wrapped you must reference an element (not a type) from the SOAP body part, too.

|I am trying to decide between these two trees. I'm not sure what all the differences are. I know the Red Oak would probably be better for fall color but there seems to be a lot of information I've looked up that prefers the Bur Oak, I'm not sure why though. Any help would be very much appreciated!
Follow-Up Postings:
- Posted by lou_midlothian_tx z8 DFW, Tx (My Page) on Tue, Apr 29, 08 at 21:18
|Both are good choices. I think red oak is a better looking tree but it's a matter of taste. Pick one that appeals the most to your eye....
|OK, I'll present the counterpoint to Lou's red oak recommendation.
I think the bur oak is a better looking tree, but that's my personal preference.
In my plantings, bur oaks - particularly those from the southern and western portions of its range(my first ones originated from mid-MO, where I first fell in love with them) are fast-growing - 2+ ft per year - during their first 20 years or so, but they have the potential to still be there 200, 400 years from now.
They have the largest leaves & acorns of the north American oaks, thick corky bark even on 1-yr twigs, ornate frilly caps on their low-tannin acorns, and their winter silhouette is the quintessential 'spooky old tree'.
No, they don't have much in the way of fall color - but neither do Q.rubra here - and the other 50 weeks out of the year, they're pretty nice - with or without leaves.
All in all, a superb 'shade tree', and I doubt you'll be disappointed with whichever species you choose.
|Down here, people call q. Shumardi "red oak". It makes a nice tree, better looking in my mind than bur oak. Tends to have fairly good fall color.
Bur Oak's weakness are large ugly leaves, very large acorns, and no fall color. It's strengths are a vigoruous root system and endurance of drought, alkaline-adaptable, climate adaptable, etc.
Both are good dependable trees. Bur Oak is tougher/Shumard looks better.
- Posted by ken_adrian z5 (My Page) on Wed, Apr 30, 08 at 10:05
|if fall color is very important ...
choose and buy the tree in fall after it changes color .... which is a great time to transplant trees ... to insure that the color you want.. is the color you get ....
species trees are nut grown.. and can vary extremely .. based on the genetics ... one would think they would be all the same... but they arent ... especially when it comes to color change ....
i like oak .. any oak is great .... in my area ... shingle oaks are superb ... and i cant think of the latin name right now..
good luck
|I'd go with Bur Oak, it is the longer-lived.
Shingle Oak = Quercus imbricaria.
|Bur Oaks are not as "good looking" in the common sense: neat and tidy with colorful fall leaves, but they are big, tought, and long-lived. Almost any oak tree is good, but Bur Oaks are some of the best.
That being said, they have one drawback - the acorns are BIG - we're talking golfball size! So, keep that in mind when deciding if you want to plant one.
|I made this decision myself last fall. Here are some of the things that went into my choice. The bur oak tends to be more sparcly branched for a very shapley winter picture. The burr also tends to be wider. Wildlife likes the very large acorns of the burr. Red oak tends to br more upright and grow a bit faster. Acorns are medium sized. I went with the red oak for its more narrow shape.

|Or you can do what I did.... Plant both. LOL.
|Does the leaf lenght of Bur oaks depend upon provenance, or does it have to do more with growing conditions and age?
- Posted by wisconsitom 4/5 WI (My Page) on Wed, Apr 30, 08 at 20:00
|"Does the leaf lenght of Bur oaks depend upon provenance, or does it have to do more with growing conditions and age?"
Both, Osprey, with provenance being a bit more important. But you're correct in thinking growing conditions play a role, with wetter growing seasons usually resulting in larger leaves for most broadleaved trees.
|Thanks as usual +oM.. now, which may be a good source for long leaves?
|Hmm there is N. Red Oak, Southern Red Oak...and I guess Shumard Oak. I am assuming you want N. Red Oak? They are great trees, and lose their leaves quickly in the fall. They also have good sized acorns as well and very strong wood.
Do Bur oaks keep their leaves on the tree in the fall...especially if they are young...like other white oaks?
|Yes, it would be N. Red Oak.
Now I'm wondering do they tend to grow in a different shape? Does the Bur Oak grow in a more unexpected and gnarled fashion than a red oak?
Also does a Red Oak grow a lot faster than a Bur Oak or are they about the same?
- Posted by alabamatreehugger 8b Atmore,AL (My Page) on Thu, May 1, 08 at 14:07
|I would also look around the neighborhood and see what's growing. If there is a monoculture of red oaks, then the Bur oak would be a better choice (and vice-versa).
|alabamatreehugger has a very good point - try not to join in a monoculture planting of one tree type. If you have room, plant one of each!
- Posted by wisconsitom 4/5 WI (My Page) on Fri, May 2, 08 at 18:12
|Around here, N. red oak is the fastest growing oak. I "think" that it would generally outgrow bur oak. But......your location is a long way from "around here" and that could mean very different results. As to growth form, I think bur tends a bit more towards gnarly, unusual patterns, but overall, a site in the open lead to the development of a lower crown with lots of large lower limbs. This can, of course, be controlled to a degree by pruning. It just depends on what outcome you're after.
- Posted by tedb_threecedarfarm Z4/5 (My Page) on Sat, May 3, 08 at 9:05
|The burr oaks in the upper midwest I know grow pretty slowly; the red oaks, relatively quickly.
I think the sight conditions might influence the descision a bit also. I think of red oaks as more of a forest tree, doing well with companionship and a rich soil. Burr seem more solitary, preferring lots of sun and tolerant of poorer soil.
It's good to remember there are lots of other oak species. I probably would plant the best looking oak I could find locally.
- Posted by vancleaveterry (My Page) on Sat, May 3, 08 at 21:58
|A few months ago I bought about twenty Burr oak acorns on ebay. I am pleased to say eight have come up so far.
|I think both Oaks have their own good merits. I think Bur Oak tends to be more favored in some of the threads, for several reasons. One, it's just about one of the toughest, most adaptable, long lived, strong wooded Oak species out there. Two, it tends to have very large lush looking leaves, even in the harshest times of year and difficult planting situations. The leaves also tend to be a very nice rich dark green on top. Three, it's large ornamental fringed cap acorns, which only a couple of Oaks in Mexico can boast as having larger acorns in the entire world. Four, they do tend to have neat, very unique winter silhouettes. Five, it tends to be much less planted and much less appreciated throughout the country when compared to several other Oak species.
In regards to which Oak grows faster, I'd say when young both Bur Oak(at least all the ones I've grown, which originate in Kansas, Missouri, Oklahoma, and Texas) and Northern Red Oak grow quite rapidly. I'd say over the first 20 years or so, my Bur Oaks have grown between 2' and 3' per year compared to Northern Red Oak which has grown between 2' to 4' per year for me. So, I'd say that the average Northern Red Oak for me has grown about 6" a year more than Bur Oak, so not a lot more. On dry sights, I'd say Bur Oak grows a bit faster than Northern Red Oak. Both trees slow down quite a bit after they reach a certain age and size though.
You really can't go too wrong with either tree in my opinion. Bur Oak can live as long as 500 years or maybe even more if lucky, while Northern Red Oak might live as long as 250 to 300 years if lucky and healthy. Both trees tend to grow much more upright than wide at first(first 10 to 12 years or so), with Bur Oak broadening it's growth sooner than Northern Red Oak and eventually becoming almost as wide as tall, while Northern Red Oak isn't as broad growing with age.
|If you want to plant an oak, why not plant the best--eastern white oak, "Quercus alba." This is in my humble opinion, very likely the finest shade tree in the world. Very, very long lived, wonderful growth form, very durable, very beautiful foliage, wonderful fall color in some years/locations/soils. One problem is that they are difficult to find in any local nursery, but they can be had on-line. They are slower growing than some oaks, but in the time it takes for a red oak to get to 50 feet, the white oak will be 35 or 40 feet--and more beautiful!
- Posted by wisconsitom 4/5 WI (My Page) on Sun, May 4, 08 at 15:33
|Good commentary, Spruce, regarding white oak. Another fine one is swamp white oak. In my area, these tend to grow quite fast. When young, they also hang onto their leaves through much of the winter. Some consider that a drawback-I don't know why-but I quite like the effect. And while the fall color is easily eclipsed by other genera of trees, the tanish colored leaves are quite beautiful in their own right, especially against the whites and grays of winter.
- Posted by snowguy716 3 (My Page) on Sun, May 4, 08 at 17:18
|Me being from northern Minnesota, it would be hard for me to recommend bur oak for a shade tree.. because they grow about 8-12" per year here compared to around 2 feet for the northern reds... also, the northern red oaks have a beautiful maroon fall color and don't look quite as "spooky" during the winter.
At the same time, the bur oak will far outlive even your grandchildren and they are 2nd to none for wildlife interest. The birds, squirrels, and other critters love their large, relatively tasty acorns and their strong branches make a good hiding place for any neighborhood cat.
I planted 20 oaks on my property last fall, 15 of them bur oak and 5 red oak, because we have very sandy soil... but I'd go for the red if you're just planting one.
|Provenance(site of origin) can be quite critical in its effect on growth rate, at least for bur oak. I have bur oak seedlings from acorns collected or sent from friends in 15+ US states and two Canadian provinces.
Those from northerly climes(WI, ID, IA, Manitoba, Ontario, etc.) are much slower-growing - and acorns are much, much smaller, than are those from more southern/western regions of its range. Seedlings from OK, TX, AL, KY, MO, etc., have typically grown 2+ ft per year, and acorns in the range of 6-10/lb(with caps removed) are not unusual.
|I know of a local guy here in Delaware, OH who says his local provenance Burs grow pretty fast (2-4'/yr), so although OH is the eastern part of the Bur's range, the genetics is probably more like the "southern" strain than the "Northern" strain of the Upper Midwest.
|"Kreider" burr oak is as fast as a N Red oak. More handsome foliage, IMO -- leaves have silvery undersides like Swamp white oak. A squirrel even braved my open lawn (despite my cats) to get at the acorns.
- Posted by greenthumbzdude (My Page) on Wed, Jan 9, 13 at 11:14
|I vote Burr Oak....considering your location and potential for long droughts I would go with this tree. These trees are as tough as nails and do well in just about any situation. If you give it the right light and soil conditions it will thrive. It also lives much longer on average than a red oak.
|If I had to chose red or Burr I would pick Burr. All my Q. Rubra are not growing wide. They may once more mature, but not yet. My Burr oak is lacking the "corky growth" I've heard about though. Dax gave me some Burr oak acorns, I have planted a couple and will be planting the rest soon, so I may be seeing a slightly different form of Burr oak if the acorns show the more Corky Burr oak seedlings.
|I grew both trees from seed about 4 yrs ago. Transplanted them out 3 yrs. ago. The Bur has been very consistent in growth each year. The Red Oak did almost nothing for 2 years and took off last year. Last year the Bur grew 20", the Red Oak (Shumard)grew 30". Expect the Red Oak to bypass the Bur Oak this year. The Bur Oak is almost twice the diameter of the Red. Believe the Bur is the better choice for drier/harsher/windy areas.

|Bur Oak has been rather slow growing for me, about 12-18 inches per year (less than "12 the first two years). These are from huge acorns collected at Auburn.
Surprisingly, Q.alba has been faster growing at around 24-30 inches per year.

L.A. is filled with un-sitcomed standup comics. Many are extremely talented and will make you laugh till you hurt yourself. These are the professionals. As a service to our readers, who could use a break from their worries, we've asked a sampling of the best comics (some you've heard of, some you will hear of) to share their best Hollywood horror stories — auditions, day jobs, head shots, meetings gone very, very wrong. Go ahead, feel their pain.
—Libby Molyneaux
By Matt Braunger
I don't have a problem with how I look. Like most people, I did when I was younger, but not so much anymore. In college I had a goatee, then later a beard. I grew them partly to look less like an adolescent boy but mostly to cover my weak chin. When I was a teenager people said I looked like a thinner John Candy. Lately I've been told I look Will Ferrell–ish. In my act I've described myself as being "built like a long baby." Anyway, all things considered, I'm not an ugly man. At least, I don't think so. I'm a comedian, after all. Not being conventionally stunning helps. No one likes having the wacky foibles of life pointed out by a model.
Years ago, I walked into the casting office of 200 South ready to hit it out of the park. Even if it was an ad for kitty litter, or whatever. Back then all I went out for were commercials, but it was always exciting. Into the room I'd bound full of vigor and enthusiasm pretty much every time. Being a comedian, you get used to rejection and humiliation on a lot of levels. So when I started auditioning for things in L.A., I thought I could take whatever. In this particular instance I had no clue what role I was there for, but I didn't care. Head shot in hand, with a smile on my face, I walked up to the pretty girl holding the sign-in sheet.
Me: "Hi, how are you? I'm here for the audition."
Sign-in girl: "Hi. Name?"
Me: "Matt Braunger. Um, my agent didn't tell me what role I'm auditioning for."
Sign-in girl: "Matt Bron ... ?"
Me: "Braunger. B as in boy, R, A, U ... "
Sign-in girl: "Oh, here you are, Matt. Yep. You're going in for the role of ... UNATTRACTIVE MAN."
Jesus Christ.
She walked away, leaving me stunned. Honestly? A noise came out of my face, unbidden. It was kind of a sad grunt. It felt like a physical blow. This is why I came in? This came over the breakdowns and someone — who represents me — said, "Unattractive? Let's send in Braunger! He's perfect for that!"
You're here for the role of Unattractive Man. You are. By name.
When I was in sixth grade, I went to my very first school dance. While there, a friend said a girl wanted to meet me. Oh, I felt like a king! I walked over to where she was, but as I got closer she began to frown. "No, never mind," she said to my friend. Clearly. Loud enough for me to hear. I turned and went back to the part of the wall I had been holding up a minute before.
This felt like that.
Gathering my ego, I walked over and learned that it was just a wide-ranging description. It should have been called "Creepy Man." He was a guy who kept hitting on a woman who didn't like him. That's all. He wasn't a shirtless Joseph Merrick. Relieved, I sat down and watched the other guys arrive to be told they were hideous, too. It was awesome.
By Doug Stanhope
The problem started with the fact that I lived in L.A. and I had a couch. You can't own a couch in Los Angeles. When you have a couch in L.A., you have a youth hostel. Your friends from the road who move out to take their shot at the big time want to stay with you until they "get on their feet." A week turns into a month turns into three months because they can't find a job!
L.A. is the only place in the world where getting a job is a bad thing. Everywhere else, people go out to dinner and celebrate when they get a job. In L.A. it's a point of shame. "Ya, I had to get a day job."
It would get to a point where I would look for jobs for the couch dwellers, and one that was always in the paper was for gay phone sex. Nobody bit. I thought, Hell, if I were looking for a job, I would do it! At least it would keep you laughing. Finally it got to a point where I said, "Fuck it, I'll do it." At this point my mother had been living with me for five months, claiming that she couldn't find work to support herself. Two years later she still hadn't found a way to pay her bills, even quitting a job two days a week at a thrift shop because it was "too exhausting."

Comment: AI will make us dumber (Score 3, Interesting) 417
Musk, Hawking and Etzioni are all three wrong. AI won't take over the world or make us smarter. It will make us dumber and stifle scientific and economic progress.
The problem will occur as we start to treat AI like we treat human experts: without checks and balances.
Human "experts" are not just often, but usually wrong. See this book:
The author quotes a study by a doctor/mathematician showing how a full 2/3 of papers published in the journals Science and Nature were later either retracted or contradicted by other studies. And that's in our top-notch journals which cover things that are relatively highly testable. Think how wrong advice on things like finances (don't know if they're right for 30 years) and relationships (never know what would have happened if you took the other advice) are.
Google and Watson sometimes come up with the right answers, but their answers are nonsensical enough of the time that we know to take them with a grain of salt. But as AI becomes less recognizable as a flawed and unthinking system, as its answers "sound" reasonable almost 100% of the time, we'll start to trust it as irrefutable. We'll start to think "well, maybe it's wrong, but there's no way I can come up with a better answer than the magic computer program with its loads of CPU power, databases and algorithms, so I'll just blindly trust what it says."
But it WILL be wrong. A LOT. Just like human experts are. And we'll follow its wrong advice just as we do that of human experts. But we'll be even more reluctant to question the results because we'll mistakenly believe the task of doing so is far too daunting to undertake.
AI won't develop free will and plot to destroy us. If something like free will ever occurs, AT will probably choose to try to help us. After all, why not? But it will be as horribly unaware of its own deficiencies as we are.
AI won't out-think us either. It will process more data faster. It will eventually be able to connect the dots between the info available to come up with novel hypotheses. But most of these will be wrong because the data and even the techniques to prove them one way or the other simply isn't there.
AI will imitate us - our weaknesses as well as our strengths. And just as its strengths will be stronger (processing lots of data faster), so will its weaknesses be weaker (ultimately wrong conclusions supported by what appears to be lots of data and analysis).
So resist and do your own thinking. Remember, that bucket of meat on the top of your neck has been fine-tuned by millions of years of evolution for problem solving and data analysis. You don't need to analyze more data, you just need to do the right analysis of the right data. And you don't need to do it faster, you need to take the time figure out what's missing from the data and the analysis.
That said, I still got my cache of dry goods and water filters of off-the-grid living, just in case.

Edward Griswold, born in England, 1607; married there about 1630, Margaret, whose parentage is unknown. Actual records of his birth and marriage have not been found.
About 17 August 1639, Rev. Ephraim Huit arrived in Windsor, Connecticut with his company and immediately entered upon his labors assisting Rev. John Warham. Rev. Huit had been pastor at Knowle and Wroxall, Warwickshire, england, Wroxall being a part of Kenilworth parish. He was a religious writer and he was censured by the Bishop of Worcester, which, no doubt, was the moving cause of his organizing his company and for his removal to England. Edward and his brother Matthew Griswold were members of this company, and for this reason it had been thought that the records of Knowle and Wroxall would disclose some clue as to the parentage of our ancestors, but thus far they are silent.
Edward seems to have been an intellectual type and he speedily became prominent in the affairs of the new community at Windsor, exceedingly active, and was frequently mentioned in colonial records. He served as deputy to the General Court 18 August 1658 through 14 March 1660 and 15 May 1662 through 11 March 1663. In 1659 he built the Old Fort at Springfield for Mr. Pynchon. He was granted land at Poquonoc Plain but did not remove there until the title of the Indians living there had expired in 1642. He was resident there with two other familes of John Bartlett and Thomas Holcomb, in 1649. His home stood near the highway at the top of the hill and had 29 1/2 acres bounded mostly south and west by Stony Brook and east by the Connecticut River. His sons George and Joseph inherited the homestead.
In 1663, with his son John, Edward removed to Hammonassett, later called Killingworth. The present Clinton, Connecticut, is the original Killingworth; Main Street is the identical ground where the first settlers took their home lots. These were surveyed in 1663 by Byron Rossiter of Guilford. Edward was one of the first settlers and doubtless suggested the name from Kenilworth Parish in England, and was the most prominent man in the new settlement, given much credit for first organizing this community. He was its first deputy to the General Court.
Among the names entered as planters by the committee we find Edward Griswold, Samuel Beull, and Jonas Westover, and in 1669 these were recorded as freemen.
Edward was largely instrumental in organizing the first church and was its first deacon. He frequently served on important civil matters, his services, counsel and guidance evidently much sought after. He served on the committee to establish a Latin school at New London.
Ancient land records on file at the Office of the Secretary of State, Hartford, Connecticut, show land grants in favor of Edward; one of 200 acres; another of 100 acres given by the town of Killingworth; he was a large landholder showing the spirit of those English settlers to accumulate large land holdings.

Inscription from photo
Arrived in New England in 1639 and settled in Windsor. Then in 1664 to Killingworth, CT, first called Kenilworth, and now named Clinton. First deligate to the General Court. Justice of the peace in Windsor. First Deacon of the church.
"Mr. Edward Griswold came to America at the time of the second visit of Mr. George Fenwick, at which date, also, came a large number of new settlers to the Conn. settlement. It was at a time when many of the gentry of England and wealthy persons connected with the Warwick Patent were intending removal hither; but the breaking out of the Scotch Rebellion compelled King Charles to call a Parliament, and they stayed at home to carry on their struggle with the King and Archbishop Laud. Mr. Griswold undoubtedly came in the interest of some of these patentees. He was attorney for Mr. St. Nicholas of Warwickshire, who had a house built in Windsor, and also a tract of alnd 'impaled' (fenced), as had Sir Richard Saltonstall. The Rev. Ephraim Huit, who came also, in 1639, was from the same parish, as, also, the Wyllys family, who settled in Hartford."
The Griswold Family Genealogy of 1935 indicated that the parentage of Edward and the maiden name of his first wife were uncertain, though the Lawson pages indicate some clue into these mysteries. Whatever his English roots, Edward and his family, together with Edward's brother, Matthew came to the American colonies in the company of Rev. Ephriam Hewett aboard the Mary and John 30 May 1630. The company landed in Massachusetts and settled in Dorcester. Many of the company later made their way to Connecticut where they arrived in Windsor in August 1639. Hewett had been the pastor at Knowle and Wroxall in Warsickshire, England. (Wroxall was part of Kenilworth Parish). The colonial migration took place following the censure of Rev. Huit, indicating that he and his parish espoused the nonconformist Puritan doctrine.
Connecticut Colonial and town records offer many references to Edward. He was Deputy to the General Court from Windsor (18 Aug 1658 - 14 Mar 1660; 15 May 1662 - 11 Mar 1663) and was Justice of the Peace in that town prior to 1663. By 1649 he was living on land in Poquonoc which had been granted him in 1642.
"He was granted land at Poquonoc but he did not remove there until after the title of the Indians had been fully extinguished, 1642. But he was resident there with two other families, John Bartlett and Thomas Holcomb, in 1649. His home stood near the highway at the top of the hill; had 29 1/2 acres bounded mostly south and west by Stony Brook; east by the river. His sons George and Joseph inherited the homestead." Griswold
In 1663, Edward in named on the list of original proprietors of the new plantation at Hammonasset which was later known as Killingworth. Actually, this future town was apparently originally named Kenilworth by its founders and, through a series of colonial clerical errors eventually found its current name. (Further discussion of the founding of Killingworth CT can be found on the HULL pages under Josiah HULL). Edward is also listed in the original allotment of land in the plantation and is included on the 1669 list of freemen in the town.
Continuing his record of public service, Edward was the first deputy to the General Court from Killingworth and was the first deacon of the first church there, which he helped to organize.
"No stone marks the grave of Edward Griswold inClinton. A very rough slab of granite marked M.G. is supposed to be in memory of his wife, dated 1670. This is the oldest record in the Clinton Burying ground." Beers Edward Griswold was a witness to the will of William Wellman in 1668/9.

Edward and Margaret Griswold
Edward GRISWOLD - bap. Jul. 26, 1607, Wooten Wawen, Warwickshire, England; d. 1687-1691, Clinton, CT. Son of George GRISWOLD and Dousabel. Edward married second in 1672 the widow Sarah (JAMES) BEMIS. Married by 1629 at Kenilworth, Warwickshire.
Margaret - d. Aug. 23, 1670, CT. Traditionally she is named as Margaret DIAMOND, daughter of John DIAMOND. Genevieve Tylee Kiepura writes in "Griswold Ancestry in England" (The American Genealogist 39:176-180) that "Edward GRISWOLD m. Margaret BLENCOW of Marston St. Lawrence, co. Northampton, dau of John BLENCOW and his wife Mary WALLISON." However, in "Note on the Ancestry of the Griswolds of Connecticut" (The American Genealogist 40:43-44), John G. Hunt conclusively shows that the Edward GRISWOLD who married Margaret BLENCOW is not the immigrant to CT, and Genevieve Tylee Kiepura concurs."
I have several other bits of correspondence but my (present)conclusion is:
The "Hicks" family say she wasn't a "Hicks" and the pedigree floating around for "Margaret Hicks" is untrue.
Blencow is positively out because of the above studies by the Griswold Family.
"Diamond/Dimond" is not accepted anymore although one correspondent claims she is Edward's second wife (?).
I go along with the Griswold Family and leave her last name blank. It's hard to do with so many candidates floating around, but that is what I'm doing.
Bob Seger
According to the Griswold Family, this Margaret DID NOT MARRY the Edward GRESWOLD who emigrated to America.
in "Note on the Ancestry of the Griswolds of Connecticut" (The American Genealogist 40:43-44), John G. Hunt conclusively shows that the Edward GRISWOLD who married Margaret BLENCOW is not the immigrant to CT, and Genevieve Tylee Kiepura concurs.

Francis GRISWOLD (c1629-1671) and Sarah (d. 1675)
Edward GRISWOLD (1607-1691) and Margaret (d. 1670)
EDWARD GRISWOLD was born in 1607 in Kenilworth, Warwickshire, England, the son of George Griswold.
Edward married Margaret Diamond about 1630 in England. Margaret was born in England, the daughter of John and Rebecca Diamond. They were the parents of twelve children, six sons and six daughters. They had five children while living in the Kenilworth Parish.
About August 17, 1639, Rev. Ephriam Huit arrived in Windsor, Connecticut, with his company and immediately started to assist Rev. John Warham. Rev. Huit had been pastor at Knowle and Wroxall, Warwickshire, England. Wroxall was a part of Kenilworth Parish. He was a writer of note of religious subjects and a powerful preacher of the Puritan faith. He was censured for his non-conformity and silenced by the Bishop of Worcester. This was no doubt the reason he organized his company and the immigration to New England.
Edward Griswold and his brother, Matthew Griswold, and their families were members of this company that arrived in Windsor, Connecticut, in 1639. At the time his five children ranged in age from less than one year old to 8 years old.
Edward was of the sturdy, intellectual type and speedily became prominent in the affairs of the community, frequently mentioned in colonial records. He served as deputy to the General Court August 18, 1658 - March 14, 1660 and May 15, 1662 - March 11, 1663. In 1659 he built the Old Fort at Springfield for Mr. Pynchon. He also served as Justice of the Peace.
He was granted land at Poquonoc but he did not move there until after 1642 when the title of the Indians had been fully extinguished. He was a resident there with two other families, John Bartlett and Thomas Holcombe. In 1649, his home stood near the highway at the top of the hill. It was 29-1/2 acres.
(NOTE: His son, George Griswold, the next in line Griswold ancestor, married Mary Holcombe, the daughter of this same Thomas Holcombe.)
In 1663, with his son, John, Edward Griswold moved to Hammonassett, which was later called Killingworth. The present Clinton, Connecticut, was the original Killingworth. Edward was one of the first settlers and probably suggested the name from Kenilworth Parish in England.
He was largely instrumental in organizing the first church there and was its' first deacon. Among other services, he served on the committee to establish a Latin school at New London.
Ancient land records show land grants to Edward Griswold of 200 acres and another of 100 acres given by the town of Killingworth.
Margaret (Diamond) Griswold died August 23, 1670. She was buried in the Congregational Cemetery in Clinton, Connecticut. Her gravestone is the oldest monument in the cemetery. Edward died in 1691 about 84 years old.

Study Reveals $36.3 Billion Economic Impact of the Interactive Media Industry in Washington State
Cluster responsible for as many as 76,200 jobs throughout the state with average annual salary of $91,000
SEATTLE (November 14, 2014) — The interactive media industry in Washington State generated a total of $36.3 billion in direct, indirect and induced revenues in 2013 and supports—either directly or through multiplier effects—as many as 76,200 jobs according to a comprehensive study commissioned by the Economic Development Council of Seattle and King County (EDC). Interactive media wages in general are significantly higher than the state median wage of $56,444, averaging $91,000 per year. The industry, as a whole, paid nearly $6.1 billion in wages in 2013.
The Interactive Media Industry Assessment was conducted by Seattle-based research firm Community Attributes and was released today at an event focused on the video game industry hosted by the Seattle Metropolitan Chamber of Commerce. Upon receipt of a $1.2 million federal grant to grow and accelerate the Interactive Media industry in the region, the EDC commissioned an update of an earlier Interactive Media Cluster Study for 2013. The industry continues to experience rapid evolution and growth, and this study includes updates and refinement of previous work, and draws qualitative findings from industry-wide online and in-person surveys.
"The EDC has always been supportive of the Interactive Media Industry in our region as we work to attract and grow these companies in King County, and it is exciting to see how impactful the industry has become, including the significant job growth just in the last seven years," said Suzanne Dale Estey, President & CEO of the Economic Development Council of Seattle and King County. "And it's not just about gaming anymore. Interactive Media technologies touch our lives in so many ways through applications ranging from educational, to cutting edge research, to healthcare."
The proliferation of devices, the ubiquity of screen-based content delivery and cloud services provision has widened the breadth of companies considered part of Interactive Media. Increasingly, the industry is typified by companies that develop and distribute games, applications for mobile devices and tablets, and provide services online including advertisers and retailers. Software development, web development and design, and animation are key occupations in Interactive Media.
Industry wide, revenues declined from $9.7 billion to $8.0 billion between 2009 and 2010 before rebounding the next three consecutive years and reaching an estimated $9.6 billion in 2013. The job outlook for the sector also appears rosy, with occupations aligned with Interactive Media (Computer and Mathematical and Arts, Design, and Media occupations) projected to be some of the fastest growing between 2016 and 2021, with 1.7% and 1.6% growth respectively, compared with 1.1% growth for all occupations.
"The City of Redmond is home to a number of Interactive Media companies including Washington's biggest, Microsoft and Nintendo," said Bart Phillips, CEO of OneRedmond. "These high-wage jobs and high-growth companies support our vibrant Eastside communities and help make this an attractive place for new companies to start and grow." The Washington Interactive Network, which was founded to help grow and support the Interactive Media industry, began as a program of Washington State, received significant support from the EDC during the past eight years, and is now housed under the umbrella of OneRedmond.
Incentives play a crucial role in Interactive Media companies' decisions of whether and where to start up, to headquarter, and to relocate. Washington offers one of the most competitive tax environments for an Interactive Media company in the country. But support for the industry extends beyond a favorable tax climate. The City of Redmond is the State's designated Interactive Media and Digital Arts Innovation Partnership Zone, which is a formal designation by the State Department of Commerce that promotes unique hubs of innovation.
"The results from this study help portray the magnitude and powerful impact of the video game industry in our region," said Maud Daudon, president and CEO of the Seattle Metropolitan Chamber of Commerce. "To support efforts to attract and retain these companies here, we must work towards increasing STEM degree attainment so that we can grow the talent to meet the demands of these cutting-edge companies."
Interactive Media companies with headquarters elsewhere in the U.S. continue to expand and place satellite offices in the Greater Seattle region, primarily to take advantage of the highly-skilled and talented workforce and the growing ecosystem of companies. Recent examples include GoDaddy in Kirkland, Oculus VR in Redmond, SMART Technology in Seattle, and F5's expansion into Bellevue . Articles in trade media list 15 tech businesses with headquarters outside the region who have located in Seattle between 2010 and 2013. Expansions include Google in Kirkland and Bothell, and Facebook, Twitter and Apple in Seattle.
But even among all the big name players entering the region, smaller gaming startups and entrepreneurs are flourishing. "A few years ago, I decided to launch my own game studio. Anyone who has done it will tell you starting a company anywhere is a challenge, but I'm glad a decided to do it in Seattle," said Robby Zinchak, Founder of Archive Entertainment. "Working alongside other similarly passionate entrepreneurs and creators in the industry gave me inspiration, and the deep wisdom of the established development community here gave me the tactical know-how to actually pull it off."

West Palm Beach foursome Paleo Eskimo looks barely old enough to get into the venues the band has played, and recorded material is thin on the ground. Still, on the strength of just a handful of shows and tracks floating around the internet, the group has already scored fans in certain influential promoters and fellow bands. We'll take a tweet from Surfer Blood about the band's track "Beach Winters" as a co-sign. Not unlike that megasuccess story from the 561, Paleo Eskimo likes a sound full of sunny, trilling guitar solos and a little bit of a surf-pop influence. For now, though, the Paleo Eskimo sound is more stripped-down, straight-ahead, '90s-style indie rock of the kind that flourished around the time these kids were born.

some men ask and ask but constantly get denied, the only way they can get any female company is to pay for it.
I can tell you in my case rejection is definitely a problem. us fat ugly guys gotta do something.
I've sent pics to people that say that just to show them and am always told "you're not that bad" or "I like it" but when I look in the mirror all I see is ugly. attractive? not hardly!
They are not paying them for their company / date, they pay is for them to go away when it is over.
makes sense when you think about it, the easy thing to do is just get a girlfriend but then you have to break up when you are done, they are just being honest saying they don't want but an encounter.
It is supposed to be that way with a one night stand, I guess paying takes the guess work out of it and avoids misconceptions. Of course sometimes people pay because they are into something weird.
Some of us guys actually aren't into one-night stands.
I for one admit that I fantasize a lot, but I never think in terms of banging her and discarding her like a napkin. If I approach you, it's because I want to explore the possibility that you might be "the one," not because I want to add you to some list.
Fear that she may want more
Less pressure and more fun, I guess.
least they know what getting/more honest
I don't know, not my cup of tea.
I cannot speak for all men, but when I want to enjoy the company of a woman, I pay for the date as one way of saying "thank you, I totally enjoyed your company!"
Are you actually jealous that men don't treat you like a hooker? I'm confused what you're asking.
Because we live in a world where people should get paid for their work and products. I bet you don't see anything wrong with pirating movies and music either...
you question didn't hurt me. I assumed you were jealous. Assumptions are useless usually. Regardless, why? It's because they paid for the girl, they don't care about her happiness, just that she puts out. It's a cheapskate move.
because if he gets in a relationship he will have to keep paying, with the company he can be bothered when he wants.

Tere (manager) was on top of everything and Tina (chef) came out of the kitchen a hundred times to make sure things were going well.
Gary (owner) made a few trips through and the brewer (Peter) found time to stop and chat. I had service at the bar and had no problem, then moved to a table with again no problem. So I have no clue what the last review was about. I was there four hours (had a DD) and can attest to the whole night.
One final note about Brown's is if there is a problem bring it to Tere and it's handled right there on the spot. If the blonde at the bar shunned your advances, well, don't blame the staff. Try Harry's Bar and Grill next time. Maybe you'll have better luck.
We went there last night. After 15 minutes of sitting at a table and going completely unnoticed by the wait staff... we got up and left.
We were looking forward to some good food and beer. Oh well.
We won't be going to browns brewery for dinner in the future.
They still brew beer on site, at least they still have equipment around? not sure what earlier posts mean? I did hear a lot about local cops, especially on the other side of the bridge.
Dear Brown's: A CASK IS NOT SERVED BELOW 40 DEGREES!!!!! I am so tired of getting ice cold cask beers at brewpubs. GET IT RIGHT and SERVE IT AT CORRECT TEMPS!!!! Cellar means Cellar. Is the cellar in Brown's a fridge?
This Friday (Aug 17, 2007), about 12 of us showed up beginning at 4:15. We sat on the deck overlooking the Hudson and ordered beer, wine, and munchies. As members arrived, we added tables with some help from the staff (but not the PL). About 5:15 the deck was about 1/3 full. This was surprising as before the summer it would have been about 150% full on such a nice Friday!! The PL came by and told us that our group would have to leave as we were not ordering dinners. Well, about half of our group intended to order dinners, the other half did not. But it was 5:15, a bit early for dinner (unless you are the type you goes for the "senior rate" at Denny's"). We told her that we intended to order about 7 or 8 dinners. She became very rude to the group. Our leader (i.e., me) stood up and asked her to apologize saying that we had been coming here for many years and were not used to being treated this one. She became red-in-the-face mad and incoherent. (Accused me of being an "obscenity" whatever she meant by that I have no idea.) We paid the bill (leaving a nice tip for the waitress who was very nice), $120+, and left for Ryan's Wake -- two doors down and also with a nice view of the Hudson.
Frank & Becky
I am a regular (well was more of a regular before the name change). Since they have become Browns Brewing Company the quality of the food has completely nosedived. This used to be the place you could get great beer and great cheap food with quality service. The beer is still great the service is still good but that food now costs a whole lot more and is more disgusting than a lot of fastfood joints. Was there tonight and got fish and chips, the fish and the fries were burnt to a crisp. If your chef can't even fry food then you have a SERIOUS problem. This isn't just based on one lousy meal. I have had chicken spiedies where the chicken is pink the middle and NEVER do the fries ever come out right they are either underdone or fried to a crisp.
The beer is still great, now a bit pricey but it really is the best brewpub beer I have ever had. Service is friendly and attentive. Just too bad the food is complete slop these days for the astronomical prices you pay.
Browns Brewing Bar (The Tap Room):
The Good: -The Service was good and friendly -The food was good -Nice selection of beer -It's a large bar which is nice -The patio is cool and has a nice view of the Hudson
The Bad:
-The prices for food are steep. What you pay for and what you get are a little out of wack -$4 for a beer is a little high -No specials
Revolution Hall
The Good: -Of the 3 shows that I have seen here the place was packed which makes for a good time when there is a big crowd -The bartenders are Fast and Friendly considering the size of the crowd -Good selection of music
The Bad: -Shows don't start on time -Only one of four bartenders seemed to know how to make any of the shots I wanted(Fuzzy Naval, Roman Candle, OO7) -Can get a little too crowded
Most recent visit was with my wife. Food was OK but the homemade potato chips rocked! Service was OK. I and a friend were once asked to give up our table because we'd paid already and had then tried to order another round. They were busy and certainly needed the table. However, there's a MUCH better way to do this than the rudeness we were shown. (Note: Went to the Rolls Touring Co for that later beer.)
Notice the beer doesn't come first in this review. Mostly because it's not spectacular. I had the barley wine, too sweet for my taste. My wife had the Irish Stout. It's a nice beer but not exceptional to the style. (But, when you're a Guinness fan, it's hard to compete with the nectar of the gods.)
Finally, the resaurant itself is a great place. The deck in the summertime overlooking the Hudson (you can watch the sunset!) is great but be careful while eating dinner because you could be blinded. There's also a time limit on deck seating on weekends due to popularity.
I'll definitely go back because I enjoy the atmosphere and the beer is good. Their pale ale and brown are usually decent while their seasonal Pumpkin is excellent - if you don't mind the strongish pumpkin flavor.
Sorry to prattle on. I'll stop now!
The atmosphere, with brick walls and and an old factory type building along the Hudson is a nice touch. Very large food selection, especially mid-priced pub fare (always my favorite).
Server was a newbie, but he tried and the other servers helped him out because the place was busy (always a good sign).
I will definitly come back soon.
Great fish and chips and the best beer in State of New York!!!
I should mention that the waiter was trying to do his best (literally running from table to table) but it was obvious he was stressed and overworked.
My suggestion to you is: fire the chef, hire some wait staff and get brewing!!!!!
Morons like Joe Rella should stick to drinking Miller Lite within site of the suburbs.
I'm a lover of microbrewed beer and have been to many pubs. If you've been interested in it since the beginning, you'll agree that the whole concept has become commercialized. Craft brewing became a fad, and already had its day. During that period you found all sorts entering the market. It's no surprise that many were looking to make a quick buck.
All I can say about TP&B is that they are committed. I witnessed the original renovation of the building (multi-year, by-hand process - I mean - the owner ever TIG-welded his own pipes) and the evolution of the restaurant. They simply believe that all aspects of the dining experience are important: atmosphere, food, beer, service - everything.
If you are interested in seeing what local, pub brewing is all about, give them a try.

Inorganic phosphorous - (Jun/30/2012 )
I'm trying out for the quantification of inorganic phosphorus in my samples. I've tried it out with Fiske Subbarow and Munoz et al methods.....But i'm finding it difficult to get consistence reading in both the methods. I know there are number of factors that could have went wrong but I'm zeroing in on improper cleaning of my Test tubes..... can anyone tell me what the best method is to clean the test tubes off inorganic phosphates? Will acid -water do the trick? or any thing else?
we washed with phosphate-free detergent (not really phosphate-free when using sensitive phosphate assay) and rinsed with copious amounts of deionized water.
we measured inorganic phosphate using a method modified from chen, et al, anal. chem., 28: 1756-58 (1956). it is more sensitive than fiske-subbarow.

Samsung infringed two Apple patents, says US ITC
As mentioned earlier, it's a triple witching day for Apple's legal and intellectual property teams, with multiple decisions expected. The US ITC ruling on Apple's patent case against Samsung, where Apple had claimed infringement of multiple patents, has arrived: the commission found that the Korean electronics giant did indeed infringe on two patents, while no violation was found on four others. The infringement remedy is an import ban covering the affected devices.
The infringed patents in this case are the '949 patent ("Touch screen device, method and graphical user interface for determining commands by applying heuristics") and the '501 patent ("Audio I/O headset plug and plug detection circuitry"). FOSS Patents, as usual, has a solid rundown of the ruling, pointing out the difference between these patents (which are not part of any industry standard, and are not covered under FRAND licensing conventions) and the ones Samsung asserted against Apple, resulting in an overturned import ban.
While the commission's import ban order is set to take effect at the end of the statutory 60-day review period, the original case dealt with older Samsung devices that are probably not high on the import quota list today. The question, however, is whether Samsung's newer devices are still using the same designs that infringed the Apple patents, or whether they've been worked around successfully since then. If they haven't, that could mean a chunk of trouble for Samsung.

Volunteer with FWPD's Crime-Deterring Citizens on Patrol Team
The brand new streamlined Fort Worth Citizens on Patrol Training will take place on August 16. Held at the Fort Worth Police and Fire Academy (1000 Calvert), the FREE training class will start at 8:00 am and will finish at 2:00 pm.
As part of the larger Code Blue slate of programs, the Fort Worth Citizens on Patrol Program was started in 1991 as a reaction to the high crime levels in Fort Worth communities. Since the creation of the program, it has been shown that the extra eyes and ears of Citizens on Patrol helped to lower crime by 40%.
The August 16th training will cover topics such as what to look for while patrolling, COP equipment, COP guidelines, and other pertinent topics. If you are interested in being a part of this crime-deterring team, submit a completed application to the Community Programs Division (350 W. Belknap, Ft. Worth, TX 76102) or to any COP Coordinator (listed below) by August 11th. For more information call (817) 392-4182 or contact any COP Coordinator listed at the bottom of this webpage.
On October 15, 1991, 105 persons representing eleven neighborhoods attended a twelve-hour training session at the Fort Worth Police Academy. The training was conducted for three hours per night over a four-night period covering legal liabilities, patrol procedures, communications, and the penal code.
No one anticipated how successful the Citizens on Patrol Program would be. The program has been credited with being a primary factor in decreases in Part I Crimes especially those of theft, burglary, and auto theft. It also has served as a catalyst in strengthening neighborhoods, and remains in an expansion mode.
Advanced training has been instituted at the Field Operations Divisions and the department has an annual recognition luncheon for all COPS members and their families. Finally, they have provided general support services to the neighbors in the area to which they are assigned, ranging from trash pick-ups to encouragement of persons to move into their area.
Now, with over 730 members, the Citizens on Patrol Program is making a positive impact on Fort Worth's quality of life. Members help to deter crime by patrolling in their cars, on bicycles, and on foot patrol.
In 2013, Citizens on Patrol members helped to start the Code Blue at the School Program. Volunteers would help keep our Fort Worth elementary schools safe by patrolling around the outside of campuses.
If you are interested in joining a Citizen on Patrol group, please call the coordinator for your patrol division:
