Uzzah

2007-03-31T02:35:38Z

Rawr:

'''Uzzah''' - the name means "weakness" - was a son of [[Abinadab]], in whose house the men of [[Kirjath-jearim]] placed the [[Ark of the Covenant]] when it was brought back from the land of the [[Philistines]] (1 Sam. 7:1). With his brother [[Ahio]], he drove the cart on which the ark was placed when [[David]] sought to bring it up to Jerusalem. When the oxen stumbled, Uzzah, in direct violation of the divine law (Numbers 4:15), put forth his hand to steady the ark, and was immediately smitten unto death.

Rawr:

A bloodhound is a cute, fuzzy [[dog]] with [[long]] ears. Bloodhounds have been used by [[humans]] for their keen sense of [[smell]] in locating various objects, such as [[slaves]], [[wounded]] [[animals]], and missing persons.

Atoll

Rawr:

{{stub}}
An '''atoll''' is a circular ring of [[coral]] that encloses a shallow pool, it is normaly covered by a thin layer of soil. Generally, only [[tropical plant]]s, like [[palm tree]]s, can thrive on an atoll. In many cases, atolls are built up on the [[crater]] of a [[volcano]] that has sunk below the sea. On the side of the atoll that the wind usually blows against, there is a break in the circle so the pool has an opening into the surrounding sea.

Venona files

The Venona project intercepted codes passed among agents of the communist Soviet Union, and attempted to decrypt them. This was a project by the United States and United Kingdom during the Cold War. It helped identify people who were spying for the Soviet Union, and passing military secrets (such as information about the [[atomic bomb]] to it). Historians John Earl Haynes and Harvey Klehr have stated,
:Unfortunately, the success of government secrecy in this case has seriously distorted our understanding of post-[[World War II]] history. Hundreds of books and thousands of essays on [[McCarthyism]], the federal loyalty security program, Soviet espionage, American communism, and the early [[Cold War]] have perpetuated many myths that have given Americans a warped view of the nation's history in the 1930s, 1940s, and 1950s. The information that these messages reveal substantially revises the basis for understanding the early history of the Cold War and of America's concern with Soviet espionage and Communist [[subversion (political)|subversion]].<ref>Haynes, John Earl & Klehr, Harvey ''Venona: Decoding Soviet Espionage in America'', Yale University Press, (2000), p. 18. ISBN 0300084625. </ref>

Between 1941 and 1945 thousands of encrypted cables were sent between KGB stations in the U.S. and Moscow but only a fraction were ever decrypted. The decryption rate was as follows:
*1942 1.8%
*1943 15.0%
*1944 49.0%
*1945 1.5%

Approximately 2,200 of the messages were decrypted and hundreds of cover names were found to be involved in clandestine activity with the KGB. Many have been identified.

Rawr:

Whiskey is commonly known as the drink of sin. That is probably why so many conservatives drink it. Even though they say they hate sin we know there all hypocrite's so yeah. If you want to sell whiskey find a republican they can down several gallon in under 15 minutes.
