Pine          Program for Internet News & Email.   A tool for reading,       sending, and managing electronic messages.   It was designed       specifically with novice computer users in mind, but can be       tailored to accommodate the needs of "power users" as well.       Pine uses {Internet} message {protocol}s (e.g. {RFC 822},       {SMTP}, {MIME}, {IMAP}, {NNTP}) and runs under {Unix} and       {MS-DOS}.          The guiding principles for Pine's user-interface were: careful       limitation of features, one-character mnemonic commands,       always-present command menus, immediate user feedback, and       high tolerance for user mistakes.   It is intended that Pine       can be learned by exploration rather than reading manuals.       Feedback from the {University of Washington} community and a       growing number of {Internet} sites has been encouraging.          Pine's message composition editor, {Pico}, is also available       as a separate stand-alone program.   Pico is a very simple and       easy-to-use {text editor} offering paragraph justification,       cut/paste, and a spelling checker.          Pine features on-line help; a message index showing a message       summary which includes the status, sender, size, date and       subject of messages; commands to view and process messages; a       message composer with easy-to-use editor and spelling checker;       an address book for saving long complex addresses and personal       distribution lists under a nickname; message attachments via       {Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions}; {folder} management       commands for creating, deleting, listing, or renaming message       folders; access to remote message folders and archives via the       {Interactive Mail Access Protocol} as defined in {RFC 1176};       access to {Usenet} news via {NNTP} or {IMAP}.          Pine, {Pico} and {UW}'s {IMAP} {server} are copyrighted but       freely available.          {Unix} Pine runs on {Ultrix}, {AIX}, {SunOS}, {SVR4} and       {PTX}.   PC-Pine is available for {Packet Driver}, {Novell       LWP}, {FTP PC/TCP} and {Sun} {PC/NFS}.   A {Microsoft       Windows}/{WinSock} version is planned, as are extensions for       off-line use.          Pine was originally based on {Elm} but has evolved much since       ("Pine Is No-longer Elm").   Pine is the work of Mike Seibel,       Mark Crispin, Steve Hubert, Sheryl Erez, David Miller and       Laurence Lundblade (now at Virginia Tech) at the University of       Washington Office of Computing and Communications.          {(ftp://ftp.cac.washington.edu/mail/pine.tar.Z)}.       {(telnet://demo.cac.washington.edu/)} (login as "pinedemo").          E-mail: ,       ,       .          (21 Sep 93)

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Pan       a vessel of metal or earthenware used in culinary operations; a       cooking-pan or frying-pan frequently referred to in the Old       Testament (Lev. 2:5; 6:21; Num. 11:8; 1 Sam. 2:14, etc.).                The "ash-pans" mentioned in Ex. 27:3 were made of copper, and       were used in connection with the altar of burnt-offering. The       "iron pan" mentioned in Ezek. 4:3 (marg., "flat plate " or       "slice") was probably a mere plate of iron used for baking. The       "fire-pans" of Ex. 27:3 were fire-shovels used for taking up       coals. The same Hebrew word is rendered "snuff-dishes" (25:38;       37:23) and "censers" (Lev. 10:1; 16:12; Num. 4:14, etc.). These       were probably simply metal vessels employed for carrying burning       embers from the brazen altar to the altar of incense.                The "frying-pan" mentioned in Lev. 2:7; 7:9 was a pot for       boiling.
From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Penny       (Gr. denarion), a silver coin of the value of about 7 1/2d. or       8d. of our present money. It is thus rendered in the New       Testament, and is more frequently mentioned than any other coin       (Matt. 18:28; 20:2, 9, 13; Mark 6:37; 14:5, etc.). It was the       daily pay of a Roman soldier in the time of Christ. In the reign       of Edward III. an English penny was a labourer's day's wages.       This was the "tribute money" with reference to which our Lord       said, "Whose image and superscription is this?" When they       answered, "Caesar's," he replied, "Render therefore to Caesar       the things that are Caesar's; and to God the things that are       God's" (Matt. 22:19; Mark 12:15).
