 @months = qw(January Febuary March April May June July August Septemb
+er October November December);
 @hours = qw(1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12);
 $time = ($sec,$min,$hour,$mday,$mon,$year,$wday,$yday,$isdst) = local
+time(time); 
 $year += 1900; 
 $year = sprintf("%02d", $year % 100);
 $new = $lastnumber + 1;

 if($hour > 12) { $AP = "PM"; }
 else { $AP = "AM"; }

 print "<p>Your news has been added</p><u><b>Preview</b></u><br>
        <p>$months[$mon] $mday $year <b>at</b> @hours[$hour]:$min $AP
