My laptop PC, like the protagonist in a Kurt Vonnegut novel, has come unstuck in time. Seriously, it doesn't keep time, and I still haven't figured out why. I've tried most of the obvious things. Anyhow, someone pointed out that since the timestamp was off - by days, sometimes - people whose email is automatically sorted might not ever see my post to the Discuss List. I don't want anyone to be deprived of that opportunity, so I adjusted the date/time and re-sent my previous post re: Cynthia, Wingnuts, etc. But I will refrain from double-posting in the future. I'm going to get this time problem solved, if I have to break down and solve it myself.

All apologies

You're a programmer using cutting-edge techniques to achieve your goal, to code the next big thing.
Probably you're using websocket, and have the support of the brand new Java API for Websocket available now in your preferred JEE7 application server.
You may want to send a parameter right away the connection is opened, instead of sending it in a message later. Reviewing the spec. we find that OnOpen can take the following parameters:
- optional Session
- optional EndpointConfig
- Zero to n String parameters annotated
Great , that is just what we need. See the following example
@ServerEndpoint(value= "/test/{name}") public class WSocketService { private String socketName; @OnOpen public void open(@PathParam("name") String name) { // save the parameter into a instance variable socketName = name; } }
from javascript , we would make the call like this to set the parameter to leo
connection = new WebSocket('ws://localhost:8080/App/test/leo');

Knights snap 13-year drought against P-T
In the week before Barack Obama began his second term, Norwin's wrestling team did something it hadn't done since Bill Clinton was president.
The Knights got three falls and two forfeits on their way to a win at Penn-Trafford, 42-21, which snapped a 13-year losing streak in the rivalry by Norwin in the Section 1B-AAA finale for both teams on Jan. 16.
Norwin (2-3 section) got pins by Drew Phipps, Steve Hess and Joel Pezze, whose fall at 132 pounds clinched the win for the Knights. Penn-Trafford (1-4) took an early lead with a pin by Devin Austin, and Dom Zona also scored a fall for the Warriors late in his match.
"It's my eighth year of coaching and seventh year as a head coach, and I've never beaten them," said Norwin coach Todd Schuchert, who was in uniform for the Knights the last time they beat P-T in a dual match.
"This is a pretty good feeling for us in a rivarly like this. (P-T coach) Rich Ginther was my coach in high school, so coming back to beat him, it seems like things have come full circle."
When Pezze stepped onto the mat against P-T's Mike Risnear, Norwin held a 33-18 lead with three matches to go. That meant the Warriors needed to win all three and pull 15 team points from them to have a chance.
Those hopes faded quickly, as Pezze scored an early takedown that would be the only points in the bout. The Norwin senior maintained control and turned Risnear to his back at the 1:03 mark of the first period for the deciding points.
"My whole idea going out there was to try and get the win pretty fast," Pezze said. "I wanted to get the pin early, and it worked. When it was over, I just got up and yelled. I was real excited."
The Warriors had an early lead from the opening bout when Austin pinned Norwin's Cavante Goins at 152 pounds. The Knights' WPIAL champ, Heath Coles, then met resistance from P-T's Matt Shirey at 160, and he was only able to come away with a 9-2 decision and three points for his team.
A 6-0 decision for P-T's Craig Slepsky (170) over Norwin's Rob Duffy made the team score 9-3 in the Warriors' favor, but then Norwin went on a run and pulled ahead for good.
Phipps (182) got his pin of Jacob Smith in just 40 seconds to tie the score, and Hess (195) pinned P-T's Michael Pifer in the second period of their bout. The Warriors had no opponent for Colin Dalrymple at 220, which added another six points and made the score 21-9.
"It's tough any time you're giving away six points," Ginther said. "Down low (in the weights), we did it as a strategic move and got a pin (by Zona at 113). But when you're that evenly matched with another team, you can't afford to give up forfeits."
Zach Diable (285) and Justin Smith (138) also got wins for P-T, while Kevin Miller (forfeit, 106), Jake Friedhof (120), Cody Drum (126) and Jon Twele (145) won matches for Norwin.
The Knights took the first points in eight of the 12 contested weight classes, as Norwin's wrestlers clearly tried to be the aggressors throughout the match.
"Coming into their gym on their senior night, I told our kids that we needed to meet their excitement and be one step above that," Schuchert said. "We matched their intensity early on, and that swung the match into our favor."
"Norwin came ready to wrestle, and we didn't. I take part of the blame for that," Ginther said.
"We're a little banged up here and there, and we had a couple guys step up and do the job, but they did it a lot more than we did tonight."
Both teams missed the Section 1-AAA playoffs by finishing behind Latrobe, Greensburg Salem and Hempfield in the "B" subsection standings. While the teams have other competitions and matches before then, the primary focus for both Norwin and Penn-Trafford now becomes the upcoming individual tournaments, which begin with sectionals on Feb. 23.
"We've got a dual meet tournament to go to first, and Norwin will be at it, so I'm eager to get back out there with a healthy lineup," Ginther said. "We'll make that a priority to get healthy for that, finish the team part of the season on a high note and then take the three weeks from there to get ready for the section tournament."
"Beating P-T is a good feeling, and we've proven that we can hang with any team out there," Pezze said. "I think everyone has a lot of confidence right now, and they're really excited and ready to wrestle again."

London: Former Wimbledon champion Andy Murray has joined the fathers' club at the top of men's tennis after his wife Kim Sears gave birth to a daughter at the weekend.
Media reports said Kim gave birth to a baby girl.
World number two Murray, 28, joins top-ranked Novak Djokovic, 17-times grand slam champion Roger Federer and reigning French Open champion Stanislas Wawrinka, who all juggle top-flight tennis with parental duties.
Federer has fathered two sets of twins.
While Murray has yet to officially announce the birth, his paternal grandmother Ellen Murray was quoted in the London Telegraph as saying: "Andy phoned yesterday and said 'congratulations, you're a great granny'".
"He told me the baby was 8lb 10oz when she was born. It's wonderful news. We watched him in the Australian Open final and I think he just wanted to come home."
Murray, who won Wimbledon in 2013, was beaten by Djokovic in the Australian Open final nine days ago before catching the first flight home.
Messages of congratulations flooded in on Twitter.

In the past three-and-a-half years, the central trait of a successful team has gone from forward-line pressure to the quest for space and uncontested possession, with a lot of tweaks in between.
But as coaches strive for a knockout game plan, and then others begin to devise a method to trump that, the substitute rule has languished in an innovation-free zone.
The seventh match under the new rule, which was introduced in 2011, involved Sydney using ruckman Mark Seaby as its substitute. In the 684 matches since then (to round 10, 2014), only four have featured a specialist ruckman starting with the green vest.
Even when the criteria is expanded to included key-position players, the tally is only 23.
That Essendon coach Mark Thompson was so widely criticised for starting struggling key-forward Jake Carlisle as the substitute in round nine was a sign the public is conditioned to expect teams will start with a speedy player on the bench and, barring an injury, have him replace one of the big men.
Two clubs that have broken the mould this season are Geelong, which has on four occasions started ruck-sized dashing utility Mark Blicavs in the green vest, and the Western Bulldogs, whose wily veteran Daniel Giansiracusa has started as the substitute a league-high six times in his eight matches.
Bulldogs coach Brendan McCartney said he was pleased to have "stumbled on a player that is suited to the role".
"We get the coaching element, we get the experience element. He generally comes on and ... helps us play the way we want," he said of the 32-year-old.
In the third season (2013), only three key-position players or ruckmen - Nic Naitanui, Justin Koschitzke and Jack Gunston - started a game as the substitute.
McCartney had to respond on one of those occasions. West Coast brought Naitanui on halfway through the third term - enough time for him to have five contested possessions and 17 hitouts. McCartney admitted that, as a coach, encountering an atypical substitute had been unnerving.
"Sometimes you get a bit anxious with who they've got. You think, 'if [Naitanui] comes on we mightn't have someone for him', but it's part of the game.''
The clearest example of the little-man-for-a-big-man approach to the substitute rule last year was Hawthorn, which gave the red vest to ruckman Max Bailey in eight matches - three more than closest peer Majak Daw. The Hawks did so because of the confidence they had in David Hale to shoulder the ruck duties, with the smaller substitute typically being a fresh midfielder.
Similarly, a decisive factor in Port Adelaide overhauling Fremantle in round eight was coach Ken Hinkley gambling on substituting its only specialist ruckman, Brent Renouf, to inject midfielder Aaron Young, and backing makeshift ruckman Jackson Trengove to hold his own against Aaron Sandilands.
This season, ruckmen have been taken off at an average of one in every five substitutions, with the key-position/ruck combination representing 64.2 per cent of those who have finished matches in red vests, compared to an historical average of 54.4.
While that does not account for injury-enforced substitutions - Champion Data only began differentiating this year - given these taller players are a minority in the team, adjusting the data for injuries would theoretically increase their level of representation, not diminish it.
North Melbourne coach Brad Scott picked up on that trend even before it began in regards to his club's ruck stocks. He said the introduction of the rule was a key reason the Kangaroos relinquished Hale to Hawthorn and injury-plagued Hamish McIntosh to Geelong, which required significant faith in Todd Goldstein to ruck with support from pinch-hitters.
"We had to make changes to our list after the sub rule because ... it became just too hard to play all three of them,'' he said.
Hawthorn's preference to bolster the midfield with its substitute is reflected by the use of two players - Shane Savage and Jonathan Simpkin - who hold the top two positions for appearances as a substitute, with 16 and 14 respectively. Simpkin has been the substitute in more than half of his 26 matches.
While Simpkin began at Geelong and Savage is now at St Kilda, at the Hawks they collectively wore the green vest on 24 occasions.
Geelong coach Chris Scott, who last weekend again turned to the versatile 198-centimetre Blicavs, said coaches were "still trying to work out what that ideal sub is".
Collingwood coach Nathan Buckley said he had no qualms with the dominant practice of starting a nimble player as the substitute. "The game obviously opens up in the second half, so if you've got a runner that's going to be smart enough to get into holes, I think that's where most sides have gone," he said.
But Buckley said it was naive to think the substitute could be brought on late in a match and play at full intensity for his entire cameo.
"The thing that we've considered is you nearly expect a player to come on and, because he's fresh, you want him to go and run 15-20 minutes without a rotation. But most players, when they've run for six minutes out on the football field, they've reached a level of fatigue that caps their intensity, and so you may well nullify the benefits of only having been in the game for 10 minutes. I'm mindful of that.
"If we put a sub player out there and he runs for 15 minutes, then he might actually be more fatigued than a player who's just had a two-minute spell and come off the bench to play on him."
Buckley said he was amused by how often a substitute player was assigned to his counterpart.
"Tactically, quite often if a game is tight, you'll actually see both subs playing on each other in the final quarter, because you're thinking 'he's got running power and he's got running power', and they generally play on the wing or half-back. I think it's ironic how often you see that. Where's the benefit?"
The work Buckley has put into what type of substitutes should be used and how they should be used to benefit his team is more a reflection of his approach to coaching than the importance he places on the substitute from a tactical perspective. He doubts it "has a massive effect".
"I reckon there's far too much focus on it. I reckon we can get far too caught up in something that has less effect on the game than what's happening with the other 21 players.''
A key reason for the AFL introducing the substitute rule, in place of a fourth interchange player, was to reduce injury, which had reached a five-year high.
There was also the hope it would reduce the impact on a team that lost a player early through injury. Under the previous system, its opponent would have a significant advantage by having an extra player on the bench to use for rotations.
Scott said the substitute rule had been ''terrific'' in negating the impact of an early injury.
Buckley, even allowing for his doubts on the tactical significance of the rule, agreed it was "great for fairness".
"I do think it might be one of the quirks of the game,'' he said. "In future years, we might look back and think, 'what about that sub rule?'. But it does provide an element of fairness to mitigate injury, which happens more often than not.''
While the trading of two ruckmen - Hale and McIntosh - away from the Kangaroos because coach Brad Scott feared the team would be too top-heavy under the sub rule may suggest he takes a dispassionate view of ruckmen, on the contrary, he hopes there is still a place for ''big blokes'' in the game.
"I think whatever happens with the rules and the subs and the rotations, we want to see the genuinely big tap ruckman still have a place in the game," he said.
Barring a significant change in strategy, there will not be a sudden banishment of big men. But to find them you will likely have to look on the ground at the start of the match and then, near the end, towards the bench, with a lookout for a red vest.

Worldnutdaily founder and owner Joseph Farah has launched a new crusade to "bring God's law back to America" by putting up billboards all over the country with the Ten Commandments on them. He's already put up the first 11 of them, in Las Vegas.
In their simplest and purest form, of course, those "great pillars" and "indispensable supports" of America's religion and morality are none other than the very core of God's law – the Ten Commandments.
But where are those commandments now?
They've largely been removed from public ceremony, schools, government and even some churches.
And look at the results.
Maybe it's time to change that.
"The problem is America is not limited to atheists, agnostics, cults and non-believers," says Farah. "In fact, the biggest problem America has is with those who call themselves believers but who act no differently than the worldliest individuals on the planet. You can call these people backslidden. You can call them false converts. Or you can call them undiscipled, nominal believers. What they all have in common is they are not in obedience to God. They are not even trying to follow the most basic moral law, as Jesus and the prophets all instructed."
He said the plan is for dozens, if not hundreds, of billboards.
"The goal is two-fold," Farah says. "I want to prick the consciences of believers and non-believers alike, and I want Americans to see the basis of all our laws as handed down by God at Mount Sinai in hopes they will repent of their sins and turn back to their Creator."
I love this claim that the Ten Commandments are the "basis of all our laws." Where is the law that requires people to worship no other gods but Jehovah? Not only is there no such law, the constitution forbids it completely. Where is the law against making graven images? Or taking the lord's name in vain? Or coveting? Or committing adultery? Or requiring one to honor their father and mother? There are laws against theft and murder, of course, and against bearing false witness in some specific circumstances (fraud, perjury, libel). But that's because no society can possibly exist for long without such laws, not because a bronze age god says so.
And you're gonna love the dishonest, out of context quotation in the article. In a long list of quotes introduced with "Listen to what others have said and written about the Ten Commandments," they include this one:
"One of the great questions of philosophy is, do we innately have morality, or do we get it from celestial dictation? A study of the Ten Commandments is a very good way of getting into and resolving that issue." – Christopher Hitchens (noted atheist)

Overdoses are strange things. Their effects don't necessarily show up where you'd expect, at the point of impact. Take 360 Paracetomol, and if you don't reach hospital in time, then it doesn't matter that they can pump your stomach cleaner than an operating room. Your liver will be shot, and you'll die a few days later, painfully. Similarly for cocaine: stick enough up your nose, and it's your heart that'll give out.
Getting the climbing habit is a gradual process. You start out on nice, safe things, HSs and VSs, and when you see people climbing what seem to you outrageous routes you think, "That'll never be me, I'll never get like that." Then before you know it you're talking to someone in a shady part of the crag, and they're saying, "You want to do some Es? We'll use my gear..." and you look from your cowbell Hexes to their rack and they have these hypodermic-thin things such as RPs.
What strange stuff gravity is. You are fractionally lighter when you stand at the foot of a mountain or even a crag than on flat ground: the rock's mass generates its own minuscule pull, urging you upward, a subconscious song your ears might feel but never hear. You follow the call upwards. And you're hooked. Just like any drug, it can make you forget pain (or can inflict it). It can make you ignore other, more important things in order to experience it, and tempt you into selfishness, spending money and time on yourself rather than other people and things. "You're all mad," snaps my (non-climbing) girlfriend tearfully, and stalks away. [Er, now long-since ex-girlfriend - CA] To which I can only reply: not mad, addicted. There are heroin addicts who hold down full-time jobs, lead middle-class lives. They aren't mad. Few addicts are; feeding a habit takes too much discipline. Then you start soloing. That's when you realise what it is to really load up the syringe with gravity and hold it poised to take a hit. Like any junkie, you tell yourself you're in control. You're only doing the safe things. You're only using "soft" gravity, the one that lets you feel yourself pulling on handholds, tugs at your feet on the footholds, gives that delicious feeling when you smear and the friction between your boots and the rock overcomes your weight. You're not on the hard stuff, oh no, not that concentrated gravity which will accelerate you faster than any car, 0-60mph in under three seconds, but without brakes...
So there I was, 30' up, revelling in the gentle stuff, when I got it wrong.
At this point, the world splits neatly into two groups: the non-climbers, who ask "Why didn't you have a rope?" and the climbers, who ask "What route were you on?" Well, it was an on-sight attempt on Great Slab at Froggatt: unprotectable E3 5b. Those who know it then ask: "Which move?" The crux traverse, a rightward step across and slightly down. I half-started it, retreated, considered wailing for a top-rope, then went for it. Wrongly, as it turned out.
Falling from that height, you get a brief time to think. It being my first introduction to a substantial decking, my thought was: "Hmm. This will be interesting." I landed on my feet, bounced back and hit a boulder with my bum (producing a bruise the size of Rutland). Some people say pain explodes, but not really; more like turning on a light. Click. Pain! In my back, my back. I can feel my feet, my toes, everything - so my spine's not bust, I managed to think - but most of all there was PAIN.
I don't recommend having an accident. If you do it somewhere busy, as I did, then you do meet a lot of new people very quickly. But it's like being at a party where no one has brought any drinks and there's no music and there's only one topic of conversation - your injuries - which you have to recycle endlessly. How did you land? What did you hit? What hurts? Does it hurt more or less now? Eventually, as at any good party, someone turns up with some drugs. "Hello Charles, I'm Keith from the Derbyshire Ambulance Service, if you want then take a deep breath of this." So it's only nitrous oxide, but don't laugh it off. At least it dims the blinding searchlight of pain. And the Mountain Rescue turn up, always a relief, like the blokes who turn up with fresh booze just when the party is running down. Then you're moving, and you're in an ambulance, and you reflect that for some climbers this is their last journey, their last hit of gravity. Not a nice thought. Time for some more gas.
In the hospital they take pictures of your ghost. "You've got what we call a compression fracture in your back," says the doctor. On impact, all your vertebrae cram together like a pack of cards being riffled. The further down your back, the more cards on top, the more weight to bear. Eventually one cracks under the strain, a bright white line showing up in my ghost's picture, pointing down to the source of the trouble: my overdose of gravity. Taken through my feet, its effects showed up far away. The cure: two weeks' cold turkey, laid flat out on your back.
After that, you're gradually re-introduced to the cause of the trouble. After a week they tip your bed slightly; after another they sit you upright. Those first moments back in the vertical are like your first cigarette or joint: your head swims and keeps swirling even after you close your eyes. You're reminded how high your tolerance was: just two weeks ago being 30' up on a foot and a hand was fine, and now your feet are an inch off the floor and you don't trust yourself to stand. But soon you're walking and climbing stairs. Again the world splits into non-climbers and climbers: the first lot ask, "You're not going to do it any more, are you?" and the others ask "Will you be OK to climb?" It takes a junkie to know one. Unfortunately, you tend not to give up a drug just because you got the amount wrong once. But you are more careful how you measure your hits. I think, next time, I will take a rope.
(* note: this article first appeared in On The Edge's Back Passage slot. The accident was in 1995 - I'm fine now, thanks. I did go back.. but with a (top)rope. Special thanks to the Edale Mountain Rescue Team and the very patient nurses at the Sheffield Hallamshire, who helped me get over my overdose. - CA)

The tastes and traditions of life Down Under will take center stage at the Tucson Botanical Gardens on Saturday.
The festivities celebrate Australia Day, a national holiday in Australia akin to America's Fourth of July, celebrating the arrival of the first fleet to Sydney Cove in 1788.
"People have no concept of the country," said Matt Welch, a docent at the gardens and director of the Australian Tourism Centre of Tucson.
"People come to me, wanting to go to Sydney, Perth and Darwin in seven days. I have to tell them that's like going from Washington D.C. to L.A. to Wisconsin, and you are losing two days just getting down and back."
Welch is coordinating Saturday's event and will lead an Australia 101 talk for beginners.
There will be a tour of the gardens' Australian plant collection, including its Blue Bush Acacia, Knife-leaf Wattle, its Sago Palm and Red Gum trees.
The event also includes a survey of the folk and indigenous musical traditions of Australia, complete with didgeridoo players, as well as a Vegemite cook-off.
Normally around this time of year Welch would be prepping to drive up to the Boyce Thompson Arboretum in Superior, which has held Australian Day events for several years.
If you go
• What: Australia Day celebrations.
• When: 10 a.m.-3 p.m. Saturday.
• Where: Tucson Botanical Gardens, 2150 N. Alvernon Way.
• Tickets: The event is free with admission to the gardens. Admission is $13 with discounts available.
• Details: See a full schedule at tucsonbotanical.org

Ask a Mechanic Online and Get Answers to Your Car Questions
Hello and welcome to JustAnswer!
Is it the speed sensor on the rear differential that you're referring to? The transfer case module does look at this sensor to determine if a shift can be made or not. If the signal is missing then it won't shift, but at that time you also wouldn't have a speedometer.
Other possible causes for not shifting into four wheel drive would be the transfer case module itself, transfer case shift motor, the park/neutral switch, the transfer case switch itself, or wiring in between any of the components.
The first step in diagnosing the problem is to see what fault codes are stored in the transfer case module, if any. If no codes are stored to aid in diagnosis then data can be monitored while it's acting up to see why the module is either not seeing an input from the switch or inhibiting the shift.

The revelation today in the Guardian that the Bush administration refused to provide a green light for a unilateral Israeli strike on Iranian nuclear facilities confirms a welcome shift in US policy away from the reckless rhetoric of confrontation, to a more sober appreciation of political possibilities. It reflects a shift away from the politics of military confrontation, to one of more nuanced diplomacy and political engagement with the issues at hand.
This should, as Jonathan Steele correctly observes be commended, as a recognition by the Bush administration that the rules of international politics are not black and white, and the use of force is not the only option or indeed, the preferred option to solve crises. Indeed as Russian moves in Georgia have proved, the United States is not the only power who can exercise force in the international arena.
This shift reflects a more profound change in the structure of policymaking within the US administration, a shift which is likely to have long-term, and positive, consequences. In the first place, the invasion and occupation of Afghanistan and Iraq have made the United States a Middle Eastern power on a scale not envisaged since Britain left the Persian Gulf in 1971. The learning curve may have been steep, but with soldiers on the ground the United States is now gaining first-hand experience and extremely valuable knowledge about the realities of the Middle East. This is now being matched by a renewed, if frustratingly modest, investment in its diplomatic expertise.
One significant benefit to emerge from Condoleezza Rice's appointment as secretary of state was a greater attention to the activities of the state department and a welcome, if belated, realisation that diplomatic expertise had to complement military strategy. Consequently, the number of individuals now focusing on Iran has multiplied exponentially since 2006. This development, the emergence of a local expertise without the need for mediation, marks a sea change in foreign policy structures which are in turn having an effect on foreign policy making.
But as Steele observes, what we have not yet heard is a clear statement of strategy and an institutionalisation of the process. This evolution has yet to be confirmed and much could yet be reversed. Indeed the revelation – as welcome as it might be – reminds us just how fragile the situation has become and this was certainly not the first time that a military strike was contemplated. There was at least one occasion in 2007 when serious consideration was made in Washington. So serious had these views become that it took the dramatic publication of the National Intelligence Estimate (NIE) to effectively derail them.
Yet the consequences of the NIE report, as beneficial as they were to American policy, had more complicated consequences in Iran where Ahmadinejad used it as evidence of the success of his own politics of confrontation. Proof, if ever it were needed, that the United States needs a coherent political strategy towards the Iranian Question, liberated from the shackles of neoconservative dogma, and focused away from an increasingly detached internal debate, towards the real world.

Never mind Wii Music or Wii Sports Resort -- as we hinted earlier, Goosebumps: HorrorLand is the real star of this year's E3 Media and Business Summit.
Nintendo might not have mentioned this innovative title during the company's press conference today, but we have a feeling that this was the twinkle in president Satoru Iwata's eye when he mentioned a big paradigm shift in the global game market. Yes, a paradigm shift towards more Goosebumps games.
Just when you thought you had put R.L. Stine's
The graphics aren't impressing anyone -- it almost looks like the duct-tape holding the system's two GameCubes together came loose -- but there are shooter segments, carnival-themed minigames, and, uh, portions where you run on a log with a swamp monster. Mark our words, when you slide this game's disc into your Wii, you will say, "Wow!"

When studies show that the vast majority of marital disagreement is about finance, we figured we'd just cut that part out. It's worked like a charm. I suggest it to all of my friends who are getting married. My brother listened, and it's worked great for them as well.
I suppose it's not for everyone, but we feel like even though we are married, we are still individuals, and part of being an individual means having your own dayum checking account.
I'm also with CC. A week or so long vacation with the wife, to a destination of her choosing, will go a long way come September.

Edgar Allan Poe
(January 19, 1809 – October 7, 1849)
Edgar Allan Poe was an American author, poet, editor and literary critic, considered part of the American Romantic Movement. Best known for his tales of mystery and the macabre, Poe was one of the earliest American practitioners of the short story and is considered the inventor of the detective fiction genre. He is further credited with contributing to the emerging genre of science fiction. He was the first well-known American writer to try to earn a living through writing alone, resulting in a financially difficult life and career.

The church of Moradin has an active role in guiding the morals of dwarven communities. They emphasize the Soul Forger's hand in everyday dwarven activities such as mining, smithing, and engineering, and invoke his blessing when these tasks are begun. They lead the push to found new dwarven kingdoms and increase the status of dwarven in surface communities. They take an active role in teaching the young of the communities and oversee most formal ceremonies. Of particular interest to the clerics of Moradin are the Thunder Children, and his clerics who were born of the Thunder Blessing are expected to do great things for the race.
Clerics of Moradin, known as sonnlinor ("those who work stone") pray in the morning. Offerings are made to the Soul Forger on a monthly basis. The ranking cleric of a community can declare any day a holy day to celebrate a local event. Many communities celebrate Hammer 1st, for that date in 1306 DR (the Year of Thunder) is held to be the start of the sudden increase in dwarven births, a blessing of the Dwarffather that has brought about a great turnaround in the dwarven race. His clerics commonly multiclass as dwarven defenders or fighters.
Moradin is held in dwarven myths to have been incarnated from rock, stone, and metal, and that his soul is an ember of fire. He forged the bodies of the first dwarves from metals and gems and breathed souls into them when he blew on his creations to cool them. He is the leader of the dwarven pantheon and it was his decision that banished the evil gods of the dero and duergar from the surface. He has a strategic but cool alliance with Gond, Kossuth, Helm, Torm, Tyr, and the heads of the elven, gnome, and halfling pantheons. He opposes the gods of the goblinoids, orcs, evil giants, and banished dwarves.
Moradin is the father and creator of the dwarven race. Honor him by emulating his principles and workmanship in smithing, stoneworking, and other tasks. Wisdom is derived from life and tempered with experience. Advance the dwarven race in all areas of life. Innovate with new processes and skills. Found new kingdoms and clan lands, defending the existing ones from all threats. Lead the dwarves in the traditions laid down by the Soul Forger. Honor your clan leaders as you honor Moradin.

Thomas Gribble (1748 - 1813) American Revolutinary Soldier of Mecklenburg County, North Carolina
Mecklenburg County, North Carolina
Thomas Gribble (1748 - 1813) American Revolutionary Soldier of Mecklenburg County, North Carolina
Thomas Gribble was speculated to have been one of four brothers who migrated to America from Cornwall, England in the early 1700s. A number of Gribbles were known to have previously settled in the area of Devon County, England in the early 1600s and early 1700s. Some source indicated that Thomas Gribble may have been born in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania circa 1748, later removing to North Carolina sometime prior to 1766 when he was listed as a foot soldier of the Mecklenburg County, North Carolina Militia in Captain Adam Alexander Eq.'s Company.
In 1767, Thomas Gribble purchsed 220 acres of land lying on the waters of McAlpine Creek in Mecklenburg County, North Carolina. In 1768, he married Sarah Irwin, daughter of William and Sarah Irwin from whom he purchased 50 acres of land in 1777. Thomas served as a juror several times in Mecklenburg County, and he died in 1812 in that county.

In 1767 He bought 220 acres of land along McAlpine Creek in Mecklenburg Co. between Matthews and Providence townships for 57 pounds 6 pence. He latter bought 50 acres of land from his in-laws in 1777, He later sold back 47 of those acres. Between 1774 and 1775 he served as a juror in Mecklenburg Co, 6 times.

Beirut, Lebanon (UPI) Jan 25, 2013
As Lebanon prepares to launch a natural gas exploration program in the Mediterranean amid a maritime dispute with Israel, a U.S. think tank suggests Lebanon's sectarian rivalries are more likely to trigger a conflict over resources than external factors.
Lebanon's largely dysfunctional government, dominated by the powerful Hezbollah movement, is to open bidding by about 40 international oil companies for exploration rights Feb. 1.
Lebanese Energy Minister Gebran Bassil claims the southern sector of Lebanon's Exclusive Economic Zone contains an estimated 25 trillion cubic feet of natural gas. There could be as much again in Lebanon's northern waters up to the Syrian border.
The U.S. Geological Survey reported in 2010 that the Levantine Basin, which runs from Syria southward to Egypt and includes Cyprus, contains an estimated 122 tcf of gas plus 1.7 billion barrels of oil.
The 25 tcf off southern Lebanon is about the same volume confirmed in two major fields, Leviathan and Tamar, off Israel's northern coast.
Leviathan, with some 16 tcf, is the most northerly and Beirut claims part of it overlaps with Lebanon's maritime zone. The dispute over the triangular area of 330 square miles of seabed has gone before the United Nations.
Lebanon and Israel remain technically at war and both have vowed they won't surrender any gas reserves and will use military forces to protect them.
However, the Jamestown Foundation, a Washington think tank that monitors conflict, says despite the persistent hatreds that inform Middle Eastern politics, Lebanon's emerging energy wealth could be more at risk from its own internal religious-political divisions.
These labyrinthine rivalries between Muslims and Christians, and indeed between subgroups on both sides, have plagued Lebanon since independence from France in 1943 and triggered a terrible civil war in 1975-90.
The rivalries are quite intense, fanned by the 22-month-old civil war in neighboring Syria that is increasingly becoming a sectarian war in which the Lebanese have long been entwined.
The Jan. 10 Jamestown Foundation analysis, written by independent Middle East analyst Nicholas A. Heras, observed that as the Lebanese start to move toward extracting their newfound energy wealth "questions remain whether regional instability coupled with Lebanon's ongoing political deadlock, sometimes deadly social conflict and insufficient infrastructure will prevent it from benefiting from resource revenues."
Heras noted that Lebanon's armed forces, poorly equipped and riven by sectarian differences, may not be able to protect the gas fields.
The military's "limited ability ... to protect offshore energy infrastructure from conventional military assaults or terrorist attacks will be a security concern when resource extractions begins," he wrote.
Heras and other commentators have also stressed the dysfunctionality of successive governments that are stymied by conflicting sectarian loyalties, with all 17 of Lebanon's recognized sects squabbling for funding, influence and patronage.
Until the gas came along, Lebanon had no major resource except possibly water. It is made up of what is little more than a patchwork of sectarian cantons in perpetual conflict.
Corruption is endemic and there are deep concerns the sectarian power brokers who hold the political and economic power in Lebanon will plunder the revenues the gas will bring, initially estimated at $40 billion.
Many Lebanese have lost faith in their political class and the ability of governments to solve the tiny country's worsening economic crisis and cut its $54 billion national debt.
The gas reserves lying deep under the eastern Mediterranean are seen as Lebanon's last hope of economic rescue.
Lebanese energy analyst Rudi Baroudi, chief executive officer of Qatar's World Energy Council, stresses the importance of official transparency once the gas starts flowing to ensure that it doesn't end up in officials' pockets.
But Heras argues that the "potential political conflict over the exploitation of energy resources ... is most likely to follow the predictable pattern of conflict" between the main power blocs.
"It will accentuate the long-simmering public debate inside Lebanon over the deficiencies of public infrastructure and services that affect the daily lives of Lebanese citizens.
"These deficiencies are becoming greater sources of political conflict, not just for the majority of Lebanese, but also for the growing influx of unemployed and impoverished Syrian refugees that continue to enter the country," Heras concluded.

How could they review that and not decide that was an interception?
The other, to his immediate left, is calling for a touchback, the result of an interception.
The interception was one of more than 300 since the surge in fighting between Israel and the Islamic Hamas group last week.
He smiled with relief as pips sparked into life, indicating the interception of homing missiles.
The interception of all lateral light caused a dismal gloom.
They even estimate with remarkable correctness the distance and height of buildings by the reflection or interception of sound.
They are the last and possibly by far the most important "safety" in case of interception.
Sim was waggling his wings, ordering the boys to spread out and get set for interception.
The suppressed psychic impulse remains strong enough to revenge itself, by discontent and interception, on the suppressing agency.
It should never mean worse if the danger of interception is properly guarded.
early 15c., "action of intercepting" (the flow of a bodily fluid), from Latin interceptionem (nominative interceptio) "a seizing, taking away," noun of action from intercipere (see intercept). Specific football/rugby sense is attested by 1906. Meaning "action of closing in on and destroying an enemy aircraft, etc." is recorded from 1941.

One of the forgotten talents who graced our pages for many years was the incomparable Charles Price. He dabbled in architecture and music criticism for magazines such as Newsweek and Cosmopolitan, but Price made his name in golf writing.
He wrote for a fledgling Golf World, was the founding editor of Golf Magazine, and in the early 1980s came to Golf Digest where he authored a monthly column that was the closest thing to literature in sportswriting at the time. He was part of what I still think of as the Golden Age of Golf Writing in our pages, accompanied by Peter Dobereiner, Dan Jenkins, Peter Andrews and occasionally Herb Wind and Alistair Cooke. Many other great writers still with us began contributing to Golf Digest back then, too.
Charley died exactly 20 years ago Wednesday at the end of a long battle with cancer. Recently Golf Digest Senior Writer Guy Yocom reminded me of a letter Charley faxed to our offices on Feb. 1, 1993, just about a year before his death. It's accompanied by some notes on what he considered the elements of good writing, a few of which are excerpted here:


text:
The concept of patriotism is fierce devotion to one's country, and it is supposed to override differences caused by the individual geographical locations and philosophies inherent in varying cultures and ideology within a nation. Nationalism is a form of patriotism based on a group of individuals' identification with a nation, and it belies the belief that citizenship should be limited to any one ethnic, religious, or philosophical conviction, and yet after the re-election of President Obama, the notion of nationalism and a unified population appears to be non-existent among Republican supporters. After nearly four years, the hate manifest toward President Obama and his supporters is candid and intense, and portends trouble for America.
Over the past three days, there has been a flurry of condemnation aimed at the President and astonishingly, the majority of Americans who supported his re-election. The vitriol against voters who did not support Willard's bid for the White House is stunning in an alleged United States, and it has engendered calls for revolt, secession, assertions that over half of the country are parasites, and in California, a racist remark accompanied by hope President of the United States gets assassinated.
In California, four miles from this author's home, a 22-year old woman posted inflammatory comments about the President's re-election Tuesday night on her Facebook page that led to her summary termination of employment. The woman said, "And another 4 years of the (N—–). Maybe he will get assassinated this term!!!" The woman told a reporter that she would not "go do that or anything like that, but if it was to happen, I don't think I'd care one bit." The woman said "a lot of people think I'm racist. WOW is all I got to say!! I'm not racist; I'm simply stating my opinion."
