      {Petri net} language developed by Charles Lakos
      at the {University of
      Tasmania}.   In LOOPN, a Petri net is an extension of a
      {coloured timed Petri net}.   The extension means firstly that
      token types are {class}es.   In other words, they consist of
      both data fields and functions, they can be declared by
      inheriting from other token types, and they can be used
      {polymorphic}ally.   The object-oriented extensions also mean
      that module or subnet types are classes.
  
      LOOPN has been developed over a period of about five years at
      the University of Tasmania, where it has been used in teaching
      computer simulation and the modelling of {network}
      {protocols}.

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
   Laban
      white. (1.) The son of Bethuel, who was the son of Nahor,
      Abraham's brother. He lived at Haran in Mesopotamia. His sister
      Rebekah was Isaac's wife (Gen. 24). Jacob, one of the sons of
      this marriage, fled to the house of Laban, whose daughters Leah
      and Rachel (ch. 29) he eventually married. (See {JACOB}.)
     
         (2.) A city in the Arabian desert in the route of the
      Israelites (Deut. 1:1), probably identical with Libnah (Num.
      33:20).
     

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
   Leaven
      (1.) Heb. seor (Ex. 12:15, 19; 13:7; Lev. 2:11), the remnant of
      dough from the preceding baking which had fermented and become
      acid.
     
         (2.) Heb. hamets, properly "ferment." In Num. 6:3, "vinegar of
      wine" is more correctly "fermented wine." In Ex. 13:7, the
      proper rendering would be, "Unfermented things [Heb. matstsoth]
      shall be consumed during the seven days; and there shall not be
      seen with thee fermented things [hamets], and there shall not be
      seen with thee leavened mass [seor] in all thy borders." The
      chemical definition of ferment or yeast is "a substance in a
      state of putrefaction, the atoms of which are in a continual
      motion."
     
         The use of leaven was strictly forbidden in all offerings made
      to the Lord by fire (Lev. 2:11; 7:12; 8:2; Num. 6:15). Its
      secretly penetrating and diffusive power is referred to in 1
      Cor. 5:6. In this respect it is used to illustrate the growth of
      the kingdom of heaven both in the individual heart and in the
      world (Matt. 13:33). It is a figure also of corruptness and of
      perverseness of heart and life (Matt. 16:6, 11; Mark 8:15; 1
      Cor. 5:7, 8).
     

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
   Lebonah
      frankincense, a town near Shiloh, on the north side of Bethel
      (Judg. 21:19). It has been identified with el-Lubban, to the
      south of Nablus.
     

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
   Libnah
      transparency; whiteness. (1.) One of the stations of the
      Israelites in the wilderness (Num. 33:20, 21).
     
         (2.) One of the royal cities of the Canaanites taken by Joshua
      (Josh. 10:29-32; 12:15). It became one of the Levitical towns in
      the tribe of Judah (21:13), and was strongly fortified.
      Sennacherib laid siege to it (2 Kings 19:8; Isa. 37:8). It was
      the native place of Hamutal, the queen of Josiah (2 Kings
      23:31). It stood near Lachish, and has been identified with the
      modern Arak el-Menshiyeh.
     

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
   Libni
      white, one of the two sons of Gershon, the son of Levi (Ex.
      6:17; Num. 3:18, 21). (See LAADAN ¯(n/a).)
