Brewing Java: A Tutorial on 2009-10-15
- Compile this program in the javahtml directory as usual and then type java Hello Gloria.
  - Trent Larson on 2009-10-15
    
    In Eclipse, try to run it but you'll get an error.
    
    So you'll have to add an argument to run it: right-click on your program and select "Run As...", but then instead of "Java Application" choose "Run...", then click on the "Arguments" tab and fill in something, like your name, and click "Apply".
    
    Now you can run it and you'll see some output! Enjoy the rest of the tutorials.

Joshua Alvin Tolman on 2009-06-22
- Joshua Alvin and his brothers filed on some land at Marion, Idaho. Father built a one-room cabin and returned to Salt Lake that fall for his wife and two children, William and Owen.
  The following spring, desiring to put in a crop but not having a team to put in a crop he didn’t
  know what to do.
  
  He went to Oakley to attend priesthood meeting and Brother George Whitley approached
  and said: “Brother Tolman, I have ten dollars I don’t need just now. You are welcome to it to
  buy seed to plant your crop.” And another man, Brother Klaus Carlson, stopped him and said:
  “Brother Tolman, I have a team you can take to plow and put in your crop.” Father went home
  rejoicing and thanked the Lord for his many blessings.
- Father loved children. Mother said he always got up in the night time to wait on them
  when they needed it. Mother said when my brother Parley would sometimes fall asleep before
  he had his supper, they would put him to bed and during the night he would wake up and ask
  mother if he could have a piece. She would answer yes. Then he would say: “Father, mother
  said I could have a piece.” Then father would get up to get the piece. Then he would ask Mother
  if he could have two pieces. She would say yes; and he would say; “Father, mother said I could
  have two pieces.”

- - Father was good to his animals. He sold a horse once (We called him old Coly.). Several
    years after he was sold a man was passing our place going to the mountains for timber. The team
    turned in at our gate, and he couldn’t get the horses to go any further. He came in and talked to
    father. Father went our to the wagon and when he saw the horses he said, “There is the horse I
    sold sometime ago. I guess he thinks he has come back home.”
    
    One time father lent a pig to a man. He kept it a long time and brought it back one day
    when father was not home and put it in the pen. When father came home he didn’t know the pig
    because it was so thin. So father opened the pen door thinking it was someone elses and tried
    to drive it out; but the pig would not go so father called the dog to help him. The dog was sicced
    on him and then father recognized the pig, so he hollered to the dog; “Stop. Don’t you know that
    is my pig!”
  - When brother William was on a mission, he needed some money and father didn’t know
    how or where to get it right then. One day when he was tending sheep on the banks of the Snake
    River about where Milner is now, he was walking along and kicked up a stone that looked like
    gold. He had it assayed and the assayer gave him the amount that he was to send to William.
  - “The Idaho Southern Railroad was coming from Milner, Idaho to Oakley, Idaho. Ferris
    and Kessell were the contractors. They told lies to get them to sign papers for a right-of-way
    through their land by saying that other people had signed without being paid. Both statements
    were untrue. The track was laid up to Grandpa’s fence and Grandpa and Grandma were standing
    in front of the engine. Grandma had a stove poker in her hand about two feet long and was
    shaking it at Ferris and Kessell telling them how they lied and how crooked they were. They
    (grandma and grandpa) held them up for about an hour, but there was nothing they could do, so
    the railroad went on through.
  - There was a small railroad station just before they got to Grandpa’s
    land. The boys (grandpa’s sons) used to grease the tracks and the wheels would spin. I used to
    sit on the fence and watch them. Then the boys got to carry sand and put on the rails so the train
    could move.

The White House - Press Office - Remarks by the President On National Security, 5-21-09 on 2009-05-22
- We're going to exhaust every avenue that we have to prosecute those at Guantanamo who pose a danger to our country. But even when this process is complete, there may be a number of people who cannot be prosecuted for past crimes, in some cases because evidence may be tainted, but who nonetheless pose a threat to the security of the United States. Examples of that threat include people who've received extensive explosives training at al Qaeda training camps, or commanded Taliban troops in battle, or expressed their allegiance to Osama bin Laden, or otherwise made it clear that they want to kill Americans. These are people who, in effect, remain at war with the United States.
  - Trent Larson on 2009-05-22
    
    Sorry, Mr. President: ignoring due process is still wrong. It's bad enough that American respect for the rule of law has been drug through the mud the last 8 years; going further and creating a legal framework whereby you politicians can do it "legitimately" on an ongoing, permanent basis is absolutely reprehensible. Give justice: quick, rational, and severe, but don't throw out due process, habeas corpus, etc. for anyone, including criminals, no matter how heinous their crime. It's the rule of "law", not rule of "the outraged", "the terribly injured", or even "the morally superior".
- If and when we determine that the United States must hold individuals to keep them from carrying out an act of war, we will do so within a system that involves judicial and congressional oversight. And so, going forward, my administration will work with Congress to develop an appropriate legal regime so that our efforts are consistent with our values and our Constitution.
  - Trent Larson on 2009-05-22
    
    Oh! Goodie! A NEW legal system! And, boy, am I glad we'll have 535 congress-people overseeing it. I just can't wait for the C-SPAN footage to see how they grill the bureaucrats who actually run this new regime when they get caught doing something wrong. I expect to hear some magnificent excuses and spectacular resignations while real people's lives are ruined. But as long as we catch some guilty as well, I'm sure it'll be worth it all!

- - Whenever we cannot release certain information to the public for valid national security reasons, I will insist that there is oversight of my actions -- by Congress or by the courts.
    
    We're currently launching a review of current policies by all those agencies responsible for the classification of documents to determine where reforms are possible, and to assure that the other branches of government will be in a position to review executive branch decisions on these matters. Because in our system of checks and balances, someone must always watch over the watchers -- especially when it comes to sensitive administration -- information.
    Trent Larson on 2009-05-22
    
    I honestly appreciate Mr. Obama's words when it comes to oversight and accountability (in stark contrast with his predecessor). Unfortunately, while I trust his principles and his continuing efforts, I also trust that other politicians will twist this ever-expanding Presidential authority for ideals that are more base and self-serving. What would Bush do (if he had had all this power from the very start of his term)?
  - The American people are not absolutist, and they don't elect us to impose a rigid ideology on our problems.
    Trent Larson on 2009-05-22
    
    I do expect a rigid adherence to our Constitution. More than any terrorist, I fear the future President who will use these newfangled powers in ways Mr. Obama would not imagine.
  - Because the terrorists can only succeed if they swell their ranks and alienate America from our allies, and they will never be able to do that if we stay true to who we are, if we forge tough and durable approaches to fighting terrorism that are anchored in our timeless ideals.
    Trent Larson on 2009-05-22
    
    Mr. Obama is right: only "timeless ideals" will overcome the "unique challenges posed by terrorism", but those ideals come from a moral populace, with citizens who value liberty and charity over safety and materialism. But those values can only be encouraged, not institutionalized. Government approaches, even "tough and durable approaches", harm the citizenry but cannot fulfill these lofty dreams of peace and safety from global terrorism.

Science and spirituality are both historical forces shaping the world we live in and our future. Neither is going to go away; the mix of the two is complex. What is the connection, the synergy, the cross-fertilization that is possible, necessary? As you find sites that are relevant to this, bookma
