Meeting Location
Bowen's Wharf at America's Cup Ave & Mill St (Newport, RI)
(Exact meeting location details will be provided immediately upon purchase of tickets.)
- Do sails sell out frequently?
- Sails often sell out, and are rarely open for booking more than a week in advance. Check the website or call the week of the date you would like to attend to check availability for public trips and to book as early as possible.
- Why does the schedule only list events running in the next couple of weeks?
- The Schooner Adirondack II is a very popular choice for private charter sailing. We therefore only open the boat to public sails a week in advance. If the date you are looking for is not currently listed in the schedule, please check back at this website frequently for updates. New events and sail times are added quite frequently, especially as the sail date draws near. (Many people also use the 'Email to a Friend' link to send themselves an email, so they can easily return to this page for schedule updates.)
- What exactly do we see on the sail?
- While each sail may differ due to wind and other conditions, we do try to follow the following route: heading south out of Newport Harbor, Schooner Adirondack II passes by a 19th Century Fort and and sails out to Castle Hill Light House while passing stately waterfront mansions and seven different yacht clubs. Fantastic views of the Newport waterfront on the way back to Bowen's Wharf.
- Is there any narration on this sail?
- There will be some light narration on the sail. The captain and crew will give some information about the sights we see along the way, but this is a relaxing, leisurely sail on Narragansett Bay.
- What type of ticket should I buy if I'm bringing a child?
- For children between the ages of 4 and 11 you should purchase a reduced price Child ticket. Children ages 3 and younger ride for free, but youll still need to enter the appropriate number of Infant tickets labeled Free when purchasing. All passengers, regardless of age, must have a ticket, so please make sure your entire party is accounted for in this way.
- Is food served during the sails?
- Food is not served on the our sails, but feel free to bring your own picnic with you on the sail!
- How about drinks? Should I bring those?
- No, it is illegal for you to bring alcohol of your own on board. For day sails, beer and wine are available for purchase at $3 per beverage. Soda is available at $2 per beverage and water will be provided on board at no cost.
- Can I bring my own food or drinks on board?
- Feel free to bring along your own picnic. However, personal drinks are not allowed. There will be both alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages available for purchase on board.
- Is the Schooner Adirondack II safe?
- Absolutely. While known for her speed, the Schooner Adirondack II is a safe and gentle vessel. Along with your captain, there is a minimum of two crew members on every sail to make sure you feel comfortable and at home on the water. We are stocked with water, beverages, blankets, pillows, and life jackets should you feel you need one. There is also a private marine head (bathroom) and salon below.
- How steady is the sailing? Am I likely to get seasick?
- The Schooner Adirondack II is a steady, gentle vessel. It is very rare for our guests to become seasick. While most people do not experience any sea sickness on the Schooner Adirondack II, you may want to consider light medication if you normally take it for motion sickness. We cannot officially advise you to take any medication, however.
- Is there a bathroom on the boat?
- Yes, the boat is equipped with a bathroom that is accessible at all times. We call it a "marine head" and it is unlike the bathroom you use at home. It involves pumping and there are simple directions posted in the bathroom on how to use it.
- Is there an age limit for these sails?
- While there is no age limit for the sails, all attendees under 18 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.
- I've heard about another Schooner Adirondack some place else before. Is this ship related to it?
- The Schooner Adirondack II has a sister ship, the award-winning Schooner Adirondack, in New York City. The Schooner Adirondack also runs chartered sailing tours around the island of Manhattan.
- Can I stow anything (eg, my briefcase) during the sail?
- There is an area below deck where you may store your belongings. Please keep in mind that this area is not guarded, so we cannot take responsibility for any broken, lost or missing items. But we have not had any problems with items being left on prior sails.
- Where does the sail finish?
- Our sail will end at the same wharf from which it departed.
- Can I get a refund or reschedule my tickets after buying them?
- Because we are guaranteeing your space on the sail, tickets cannot be refunded once purchased. You may, however, reschedule your tickets (subject to availability) provided that you do so at least 24 hours before the scheduled start time for your sail. If you need to reschedule tickets that you already purchased, please contact us at the phone number or email listed on your eticket before this 24 hour deadline. The sail that you will be rescheduling for will not be for more than a week later. You may only reschedule your tickets once.
- Do you ever cancel sails due to bad weather?
- The sail usually runs in light rain and other moderate weather situations. The only time we cancel a trip is in the event of severe or unsafe weather conditions. Our captains monitor the radar to watch fronts and cells in the area on days when inclement weather is possible. Cancellations are made on the day of the sail, by the Captain, up to 1 hour prior to sail time. If you have purchased tickets for a sail that is cancelled, you will have the opportunity to to reschedule your tickets (subject to availability) or receive credit towards a future event.
- What happens if it starts raining when we're out on our sail?
- Don't worry, we won't melt! Trips with a little wetness have proven to be some the most memorable bonding experiences for our guests. (This all depends on attitude of course...) If we are caught in a rain shower we have ankle-length button-down raincoats available for all of our guests aboard the Adirondack II.
- Is the Adirondack II wheelchair accessible?
- We regularly accommodate people in wheelchairs on our sails, but please keep in mind the wheelchair cannot wheel directly onto the vessel. In order to get from the dock onto the boat and comfortably into your seat, our staff will need to assist you.
- Are group discounts available?
- Sure! If you purchase 10 or more tickets at once, you'll get $3 off each ticket.
- Can I book a private charter sail?
- Yes, private sails on the Schooner Adirondack II can be a unique and elegant event for your group. If you are interested in booking a private sail, please contact us by clicking Contact SailNewport to the left of the page.

- Yes, you can! When you purchase your gift certificate online, you will be presented immediately with your gift certificate so that you can print it out and deliver it. If you buy it over the phone, a link to your gift certificate will be emailed to you as soon as your purchase is completed.

Harvard Business School Professors Michael Porter and Jan Rivkin lay out policy steps for the president and Congress to follow in order to make American companies more competitive and their employees more prosperous.
After decades of sending work across the world, companies are rethinking their offshoring strategies.
Why are firms placing a huge bet on what some analysts are now calling "re-shoring"? And what factors should global managers take into consideration when they decide whether or not to bring manufacturing lines back to the U.S.?
The Chinese and Indians can plan all they want, but market forces have a way of crushing state-supported optimism. Because of its stronger social cohesion, economic flexibility and educational strength, the United States will remain the most popular haven for foreign investment.
Daniel Cunningham has a billion-dollar idea for Apple: Start building the iPhone intended for American markets in the United States. The result? A billion dollars in additional profit for the company.
How can America possibly sustain its culture of innovation when assets are so vulnerable to cherry picking by cash-rich Chinese companies? This issue — not last month's unemployment rate — should be the central issue as the U.S. tries to decide who will be its president for the next four years.
The migration of Japanese auto manufacturing to the United States over the last 30 years offers a case study in how the unlikeliest of transformations can unfold.
U.S. growth will increasingly depend on selling goods and services to foreign consumers who do not necessarily speak English. Yet American students are woefully unprepared to do that.
As we celebrate the success of the National Export Initiative and its positive impact on our economy, we must also commit to ensuring that its momentum continues. Providing more opportunities and support for U.S. companies to export their goods and services makes good economic sense--and American workers deserve nothing less.
Why are big companies not investing more in the United States? Findings from Harvard Business School's U.S. Competitiveness Project were discussed at a fascinating meeting of business leaders in New York Monday evening.
When a business school solicits alumni, it's usually to ask for donations. Last night, though, the school hit them up for something they may find harder to give: a commitment to use whatever influence they have to get their companies to invest in the local workforce, raise U.S. median wages, and support local suppliers.
Wages in China and other parts of the developing world are rising, reducing the incentive to send jobs overseas. Add in concern about quality control and shipping costs, and the result will be more manufacturing jobs created in the United States, says W. James McNerney, president and CEO of Boeing.
Professors Michael E. Porter and Jan W. Rivkin frame the HBS project on U.S. competitiveness by defining "competitiveness," assessing the state of U.S. competitiveness, and pinpointing dynamics that threaten America's competitiveness.

Published May 1, 2000.
Most beef kebabs are disappointing, with overcooked meat and vegetables that are either raw or mushy. Using inexpensive beef, we set out to find a simple one-skewer recipe that cooked everything perfectly.
While the concept of the kebab is simple, the pitfalls of grilling on skewers are many. It's easy to pick the wrong cut of beef. There are dozens of choices. It's also easy to overcook the meat because it's cut into small pieces. Another easily but unintentionally accomplished end is charring the outside of the meat over a hot fire while leaving its interior (not to mention the vegetables) nearly raw.
Our goal was to develop a recipe that would reliably deliver juicy, flavorful beef, cooked from rare to medium on the inside and richly caramelized on the outside, and perfectly cooked, crisp-tender vegetables.
Choose a tender but flavorful cut of beef, such as top blade steak or top sirloin. Marinate the meat in an oil-based marinade and squirt some lime juice onto the kebabs after they come off the grill; the oil keeps the meat from drying out on the grill and the lime juice contributes a nice, fresh flavor. Skewer the meat with quick-cooking vegetables that do not need to be pre-cooked before grilling; skip the mushrooms, eggplant, and zucchini in lieu of onions and bell peppers. Cook quickly over a hot fire for richly caramelized meat with a perfectly cooked, juicy interior.

FAIR wiki articles
Book of Mormon: Claimed anachronisms
- Animals—
Critics claim that the Book of Mormon mentions animals which do not belong in a pre-Columbian New World. They cite this as evidence for Joseph Smith 'slipping up,' and revealing his forgery. Often attacked examples include: the ass (donkey), bees, the cow, the elephant, the horse, silkworms, and swine (pigs). Some sport is also had at the expense of two unknown animals, which are given untranslated names cureloms and cumoms (Link)- Jaredites added to explain New World animals—Critics charge the the story of the Jaredites, as described in the Book of Ether, was added by Joseph Smith as an "afterthought" in order to account for the variety of animals present in the New World at the time of arrival of Lehi's group. Critics suggest that the Book of Ether was simply an "afterthought" added by Joseph Smith to the Book of Mormon in order to explain the presence of a wide variety of animals in the New World at the time of the arrival of Lehi's party. (Link)
- Serpents and drought (Link)
Claimed anachronisms and other KJV text issues in the Book of Mormon
- Malachi text in the Book of Mormon—
Critics claim that the Book of Mormon cannot be an ancient work because it quotes Malachi hundreds of years before Malachi was written (i.e, they claim that Mal. 4:1 is quoted in 1 Nephi 22:15). However, the Book of Mormon claims to be a "translation." Therefore, the language used is that of Joseph Smith. Joseph could choose to render similar (or identical) material using King James Bible language if that adequately represented the text's intent. The translation language may resemble Malachi, but the work is not attributed to Malachi. Only if one presumes that the Book of Mormon is a fraud at the outset is this proof of anything. If one accepts that it is a translation, then the use of Bible language tells us merely that Joseph used biblical language. (Link) - New Testament text?—
Critics claim that the Book of Mormon cannot be an ancient work because it contains material that is also found in the New Testament. In the Book of Mormon, Jesus quotes a paraphrase of Moses' words found in Acts 3:22-26. (Link) - Deutero-Isaiah—
The "Deutero-Isaiah" theory is the claim that parts of Isaiah were written later than others. This theory claims that there were three individual authors, whose works were later compiled together under the name of the first author Isaiah (referred to as "Proto Isaiah"). The critical issue raised is that the Brass Plates of Laban quote from sections of Isaiah that this theory ascribes to Deutero-Isaiah, so how could the Nephites have these writings if they weren't written until after they left Jerusalem? (Link) - Firstling sacrifices—
Critics claim that the Book of Mormon report that Nephites offered burnt offerings of the firstlings of their flocks is not consistent with Jewish law or practice. While firstlings were not used for every sacrifice, they certainly did have a role in the sacrificial practices of Israel. The critics have misunderstood the Bible on this point. (Link) - Holy Ghost—
Why is the Holy Ghost mentioned so many times in the Book of Mormon prior to the time of Christ (e.g., 1 Nephi 10:17) and yet in the Old Testament there is hardly any mention of the Holy Ghost, especially with regard to his mission of bearing witness of the truth? (Link) - Jeremiah in prison—
Critics claim that Nephi's mention of Jeremiah being put into prison (1 Nephi 7:14) is anachronistic, since Jeremiah would not have been in prison when Lehi left Jerusalem. (Link) - Jerusalem as site of Jesus' birth—
Critics point out that Alma 7:10 says that Jesus would be born "at Jerusalem which is the land of our forefathers." Yet, every schoolchild knows that Jesus was born in Bethlehem. They claim that this is a mistake, and evidence that Joseph Smith forged the Book of Mormon. However, it is important to note what Alma's words were. He did not claim Jesus would be born in the city of Jerusalem, but "at Jerusalem which is the land of our forefathers." Bethlehem is located only five miles from Jerusalem. Thus, the Book of Mormon makes a distinction here between a city and the land associated with a city. (Link) - Josephites and Jerusalem—
Critics claims that the fact that Lehi was not of Judah, but of the tribe of Joseph, makes it absurd for him to have been living in Jerusalem before the Babylonian captivity: "The tribe of Joseph at Jerusalem! Go, study scripture-geography, ye ignorant fellows, before you send out another imposition, and make no more such foolish blunders." (Link) [needs work] - Book of Mormon plagiarized from Bible? (Link)
- Mainly altered italics in the KJV? (Link)
- Book of Mormon "translation errors" from KJV?—
Critics wonder why many of the quotes from Isaiah in the Book of Mormon are identical to the King James version. The Book of Mormon incorporates text which seems to be taken from the King James Version, including passages which are now considered to be mistranslations in the King James Version. If the Book of Mormon is an accurate translation, critics claim that it shouldn't contain these translational errors. (Link) - Book of Mormon translation (Link)
- Book of Mormon and the Dead Sea Scrolls (Link)
- Calendar—
The Book of Mormon calendar is not identical to the calendar used by modern peoples. Learn about Nephite calendar(s) here. (Link)- Was the idea of a "week" unknown in the Americas?—Despite claims to the contrary, there is evidence for a seven-day week among the early Maya, though the Book of Mormon does not require such a correlation. (Link)
- Olive culture (Link)
- Legal codes and concepts (Link)
- DNA issues—
DNA samples taken from modern Native Americans do not match the DNA of modern inhabitants of the Middle East. Critics argue that this means the Book of Mormon's claim that Native Americans are descended from Lehi must be false, and therefore the Book of Mormon is not an ancient record as Joseph Smith claimed. Few criticisms of the Church have received as much media attention as this criticism, with so little thought and science being applied to the question. DNA attacks against the Book of Mormon account fail on numerous grounds. (Link)
- Modalism—
Critics claim that the Book of Mormon teaches the trinitarian heresy of modalism or Sabellianism. This reading misinterprets some Book of Mormon verses, and ignores Book of Mormon texts which clearly contradict this reading. (Link) - Pre-Christian Christianity—
Critics claim that it is an anachronism that the Book of Mormon teaches that Christians existed before Christ's birth. (Link) - Temple in the New World—
Critics attack the presence of an Israelite temple built by the Nephites. They do so on one or more of the following grounds: 1) They claim that Israelites considered the Jerusalem temple the sole legitimate site of worship, and so would not have reproduced it. 2) They claim that the Nephite population would have been too small to match the work required to built a temple "like unto Solomon's temple" (2 Nephi 5:16). 3) They claim that the temple built was "similar in splendor" to Solomon's temple. 4) They claim that the sacrifices and rituals as presented are not consistent with Jewish ritual. (Link) - Two natures of Christ (Link)
- Bethabara—
Alexander Campbell, an early Book of Mormon critic, complained that the Book of Mormon "makes John [the Baptist] baptize in the village of Bethabara." The Book of Mormon, however, uses the same term as the King James Bible: "These things were done in Bethabara beyond Jordan, where John was baptizing." (John 1:28) (Link) - River runs into a fountain (Link) [needs work]
- Democracy—
Critics claims that the fact that the Nephite reign of the judges is a thinly-disguised version of nineteenth-century American republicanism. (Link) [needs work] - Legal codes and concepts—
Do the legal concepts in the Book of Mormon better match Joseph Smith's day, or the ancient world? (Link) - Republicanism (Link)
- Chariots—
Critics claim that the Book of Mormon mentions "chariots" which they claim must be a "wheeled vehicle." They also note that no draft animals existed to pull such chariots. 3 Nephi 3:22 notes that the Nephites "had taken their horses, and their chariots" to a central fortified area for protection against robbers. It should be noted that we are not told if these chariots served a purpose in riding, or if they were for transport of goods, or if they had a ceremonial function. One assumes some sort of practicality or ritual importance in war, since they brought chariots to the siege. Conspicuously absent is any role of the chariot in the many journeys recorded in the Book of Mormon. Nor do horses or chariots play any role in the many Nephite wars; this is in stark contrast to the Biblical account, in which the chariots of Egypt, Babylon, and the Philistines are feared super-weapons upon the plains of Israel. (Link) - Coins—
Critics claim that Book of Mormon references to Nephite coins is an anachronism, as coins were not used either in ancient America or Israel during Lehi's day. However, the word "coins" was only added to the chapter heading of Alma 11 much later, and the text of the Book of Mormon itself does not mention coins. The pieces of gold and silver described in Alma 11:1-20 are not coins, but a surprisingly sophisticated system of weights and measures that is entirely consistent with Mesoamerican proto-monetary practices. (Link) - Compass—
Critics charge that the description of the Liahona as a "compass" is anachronistic because the magnetic compass was not known in 600 B.C. However, believing it was called a compass because it pointed the direction for Lehi to travel is the fault of the modern reader, not the Book of Mormon. As a verb, the word "compass" occurs frequently in the King James Version of the Bible; and it generally suggests the idea of surrounding or encircling something (Link) - "Gold" plates?—
Critics claim that Joseph Smith, Jr. manufactured some metal plates out of tin, copper, or some other metal in order to trick witnesses into thinking he had gold plates. Gold plates of the dimensions described by the witnesses would be too heavy (on the order of 200 lbs) to be realistically lifted and carried as Joseph and others described. This assumption, however, assumes a solid block of gold in the dimensions described, and does not account for the fact that pure gold would have been too fragile to form the thin leaves necessary for engraving. (Link)- Plates too heavy for Joseph to run with—How heavy were the plates? Could Joseph have run with them as described despite his boyhood operation? (Link)
- Gunpowder!—
Some critics claim that the Book of Mormon mentions "gunpowder," and "pistols and other firearms," which are clearly anachronisms. The claim is false. There is no mention of "gunpowder" or firearms, or anything like them, in the Book of Mormon. (Link) - Temple in the New World—
Critics claim that Israelites would not have built a temple in the New World outside of Jerusalem. This ignores Israelite temples built in the Old World outside Jerusalem. (Link) - Windows—
Critics claim that the mention of "windows" implies the existence of glass in Book of Mormon times. (Link)
- Language—
Claimed anachronisms related to language used in the Book of Mormon. (Link)- "Adieu"—Jacob 7:27 ends with the phrase, "Brethren, adieu." Critics claim that because adieu is French, it shows that Joseph Smith composed the Book of Mormon, and not an ancient author. There are at least three problems with the adieu argument against the Book of Mormon. 1) Critics overlook the fact that the word adieu was not on the plates. 2) The translator of a work can use words from any language he chooses in order to convey the meaning of the text to his readers, so that even if "adieu" had been a foreign word (e.g., French) to Joseph Smith, there is nothing either unusual or problematic with his choosing that word in his translation. 3) Critics mistakenly think the word "adieu" is not used as an English word. (Link)
- And it came to pass—Critics have often complained about the frequent repetition of "and it came to pass" in the Book of Mormon.[1] Mark Twain famously joked that if the phrase were omitted, Joseph would have published a pamphlet instead of a book. As it turns out, however, this much-maligned phrase is actually evidence of the Book of Mormon's authentic antiquity. (Link) [needs work]
- Greek words: alpha and omega?—Critics claim that the Book of Mormon cannot be an ancient work because it contains "Greek words" ("alpha and omega"). However, the Book of Mormon claims to be a translation. Therefore, the language used is that of Joseph Smith. Joseph could choose to render similar (or identical) material using King James Bible language if that adequately represented the text's intent. (Link)
- Modern phrasing—Critics maintain that Book of Mormon phrases or language is too "modern" to be of ancient origin. The Book of Mormon is a translation. As such, it may well use phrases or expressions that have no exact ancient counterpart. Modern Bible translations use similar expressions or phrases, and yet remain translations of ancient documents. (Link)
- Hebrew and Native American languages—Is there any evidence that Old World languages (such as Hebrew) had an influence on the languages of the New World? Critics claim that the Book of Mormon provides too short a time for the disappearance of the Nephite/Lamanite Hebrew language. (Link)
- Red Sea vs Reed Sea—Critics cast doubt on Moses' miraculous parting of the Red Sea by asserting that this belief arose due to a mistranslation of the Hebrew phrase yam sûp. The critics argue that the phrase should read "the Reed Sea," and that the Israelites actually just crossed a marshy inlet while the Egyptians' chariots got stuck in the mud. Having "proved" that the popular understanding of the KJV is inaccurate, the critics then conclude that the Book of Mormon's use of "Red Sea" is evidence that Joseph was not producing an inspired translation, but simply copying from the (mistaken) King James text. (Link)
- Reformed Egyptian—Critics claim that Jews or Israelites (like the Nephites) would not have used the language of their slave period — Egyptian — to write sacred records, that there is no evidence in Egyptology of something called "reformed Egyptian," and that the Book of Mormon's claim to have been written in this language is therefore suspect. However, the claim that Israelites would not use Egyptian is clearly false. By the ninth to sixth centuries before Christ, Israelites used Egyptian numerals mingled with Hebrew text. The Papyrus Amherst 63 contains a text of Psalms 20:2-6 written in Aramaic (the language of Jesus) using Egyptian characters. This text was originally dated to the second century B.C., but this has since been extended to the 4th century B.C. (Link)
- Egyptian would not be shorter than Hebrew on the plates—Critics claim that Egyptian would be too lengthy and bulky on the plates to account for the Book of Mormon [Egyptian would take] "perhaps four times, or even more than four times, as much room as the English, and it is quite certain that, as the Book of Mormon is 600 pages thick, it would take at least a thousand plates to hold in the Egyptian language, what is there written." (Link)
- Names—
Critics claim some Book of Mormon names are used improperly or in an inappropriate context. Examples include using "Alma" as a man's name, rather than a woman's name and using names of Greek origin, such as "Timothy" (Link)- Comoros Islands and Moroni—Comoros is a small nation made up of three islands off the southeast coast of Africa. Its capital city is Moroni. Some critics have claimed that Joseph Smith created the Book of Mormon names Cumorah and Moroni by copying them from a map of the Comoros islands. (Link)
- Synagogues (Link)
- Gadianton Robbers as Masons?—
Critics claim that the Gadianton robbers are thinly disguised references to the anti-Masonic panic of Joseph Smith's era. Joseph's contemporaries did not embrace the "obvious" link between the Book of Mormon and masonry. Proponents or opponents of Masonry simply tended to blame their opponents for Mormonism. Given Joseph Smith's long family involvement with the institution of Freemasonry and the fact that he would, in 1842, become a Mason himself, it seems unlikely that anti-Masonry was the "environmental source" of the Gadianton robbers found in the Book of Mormon. The members of his day likewise had little enthusiasm for anti-Masonic sentiments. (Link)
- Cement—
Critics claim that the Nephites in the land northward building out of cement in Helaman 3:7-11 (circa 47 B.C.) is not valid. As critic John L. Smith put the claim, "There is zero archaeological evidence that any kind of cement existed in the Americas prior to modern times" (John L. Smith, "What about those Gold Plates?" The Utah Evangel 33:6 (September 1986): 8.) In this case, however, an attack on an 'absence of evidence' backfired. Cement is not anachronistic. The Book of Mormon places it in exactly the right spot and time period for Mesoamerican use of this building material. (Link) - Metals—
Critics attack the Book of Mormon's mention of metal and metalworking in the Americas: 1) they claim no metal use occurred in the Americas prior to A.D. 900, and 2)they claim certain metals mentioned in the Book of Mormon were not available in the Americas. (Link) - Metal Plates (Link)
- Plants—
Critics claim that plants mentioned in the Book of Mormon are not found in the New World, and are thus evidence that Joseph fabricated the text based upon his own cultural background. (Link)
- Demographics—
Critics charge that the initial Lehite colony is too small to produce the population sizes indicated, and that Lehi's group was sent to a land which was kept from the knowledge of other nations, therefore, according to the Book of Mormon, there could not have been "others" present. A superficial reading of the Book of Mormon leads some to conclude that the named members of Lehi's group were the only members of Nephite/Lamanite society. However, the Book of Mormon contains many mentions of "others" that made up part of both societies; indeed, many Book of Mormon passages make little sense unless we understand this. (Link)
- Chapter divisions—
Critics claims that the fact that the Book of Mormon has chapters demonstrate that it is a modern production. The table of contents was a modern insertion; it had no counterpart in the dictated text of the Book of Mormon. It was added just as it is in modern Bibles. However, the first edition of the Book of Mormon did contain chapters (though much longer than the modern chapters), and chapter markers were part of Joseph's dictated text. (Link)

Get Happy Tips, LLC publishes tips every parent can use.
Fort Lauderdale, FL (PRWEB) January 13, 2013
GetHappyTips.com, a website dedicated to inspiring parents to get happy, released its list of ten things parents should do every day. These are tips that can really make a difference in 2013 as the enthusiasm for New Year's resolutions dwindle.
Here are five of the 10 parenting tips:
1. Tell your children you love them.
Children should grow up knowing they are loved and cherished. This will help them grow up in to more well-rounded people who are more open to treating others kindly.
2. Ask open-ended questions.
Find out what is going on in your children's lives. Ask open-ended questions, such as, "What is the best and worst thing that happened to you today?" Questions like these give you insights into what your children are thinking so you can better attend to their needs.
3. Sit down for one meal together.
Hectic schedules can prevent parents from spending enough time with children. Shut off all electronics and spend time talking together at breakfast, lunch, dinner or all three meals! If this is impossible, take 15 minutes and eat a bowl of popcorn together to chat.
4. Save a little bit of money.
Teach your children the value of money. Even if you are just putting a quarter in a piggy bank, show your children that you don't have to spend everything you earn.
5. Hug your children.
Touch is extremely important for children's emotional development. Research shows that hugs may even help your children learn, improve their memory and even respond better to stress.

This Hi-Boy wood stand meets our needs perfectly. It is difficult to find good quality furniture that fits in odd shaped/small areas that are common in historical homes. This piece is beautiful, and blends with our eclectic style. [...] Thank you.

About Me High-End Shopper, Practical, Stylish
I added this in my bedroom as a television stand. Holds my 26" HDTV and cable box with lots of room to spare - lots of spaces for concealing unsightly wires. I'm also using it to store books and papers inside the cabinet. Makes what used to be a messy space elegant. Only problem - the instructions for the hinges on the door were not great. Took a little while to figure that out otherwise Excellent quality - Great Price.

Handsome Cabinet
By spwilson
from San Diego, CA
I needed a smaller, but functional and stylish cabinet for my home theater components. Not many that have these attributes around. I was skeptical being knock-down furniture, but it turned out much better than expected. Looks very sturdy and wood surfaces are nicely finished. The directions were not great, but I stumbled through it without problems. Aligning the doors was the biggest challenge and took the most time. But suceeded. It holds a lot of stuff and looks great. This site was the best price. Very happy with the purchase and it came quickly.
Good quality, nice piece of furniture
By RichL
from Barnegat, NJ
This cabinet is a perfect fit for a 32" TV. The color was exactly as described. [...] Will shop at CYMAS again.
Suprisingly Nice
This was to fit in a smaller area to house home theater components. This configuration fit the bill. Pleasantly surprised based on the low price and that it's knockdown. Instructions are fair, but it's not hard to figure it out, and everything lined up well. The only challenge was to get the doors aligned using those adjustable hinges that are on most kitchen cabinets these days. The color and quality of wood was also suprisingly rich and expensive looking.Overall, a winner at this price.

A school teacher has been chosen to join the Rockingham City Council.
At its regular monthly meeting Tuesday, the council voted unanimously to appoint Denise Sullivan to the council seat left vacant last month when councilman Steve Morris was appointed mayor.
Sullivan is a teacher at Rockingham Middle School, and she has served for several years on the Rockingham Housing Authority Board, including a stint as chairwoman of that governing body.
After the vote to appoint Sullivan, City Clerk Gwendolyn Swinney administered the Oath of Office to Sullivan.
Mayor Morris said, "We'll ask you to come join us," and Sullivan took her seat at the council table.
"I am deeply honored," Sullivan said. She said she will serve the city to the best of her ability, and that she is "grateful" for the opportunity to do so.
Morris got the top job after former mayor Gene McLaurin won a seat in the NC Senate. Morris will serve out the rest of McLaurin's term as mayor, through the end of 2013, and Sullivan will serve out the remainder of Morris' term, also through the end of December. If they want to stay on the City Council they will have to win election this fall.
Morris said a large number of people submitted resumes for the open council seat, and he was pleased that so many citizens were willing to "step up to the plate" and help govern the city.
Councilman Bennett Deane III welcomed Sullivan, and said he wanted to extend a thank you to all the folks who showed an interest in the council position. The interest shows "civic pride," he said. Deane and Councilman Gene Willard pointed out that there are numerous boards and committees where people desiring the chance to serve the city could take part.
Councilman Travis Billingsley said, "There is no better time to serve the City of Rockingham."
Mayor Pro Tem John Hutchinson said he was also encouraged by the interest shown to serve the city. Hutchinson also welcomed Sullivan, telling her, "I look forward to serving with you."
Also on Tuesday night, the council held a pubic hearing on the request to rezone about 6 acres at 106 Old River Road from High Density Residential (R-7) to Highway Business (B-3). City staff said the applicant, VFW Post 4203, had plans to place sweepstakes gaming machines in the VFW Post building, and even in light of a recent court ruling declaring the machines illegal, the applicant still wants to proceed with the rezoning request.
City staff recommended granting the rezoning, and the city's Planning Board last month unanimously recommended that the council rezone the property as requested.
The City Council unanimously approved the request.
In other matters on Tuesday, the City Council:
• Adopted the Pee Dee Lumber Regional Hazard Mitigation Plan.
• Held a public hearing on a Community Development Block Grant application for the East Rockingham Sewer Project. These funds will be used to provide public sewer to portions of Marigold, Flowers and Mills streets. About 35 homes in that neighborhood are expected to be connected through this latest project.
• Heard a presentation of Rockingham Fire Department's 2012 Annual Report by Fire Chief Charles Gardner.
• Agreed to schedule a public hearing at its March 12 meeting on a request to rezone 1.43 acres located at 106 Yates Hill Road and 195 W. U.S. Highway 74 Business from Light Industrial (I-1) to Highway Business (B-3).

Note that imap_msgno() doesn't ever give you an error message. So, assuming you're passing about message numbers as a UID, be warned that:

$msguid = false;

$msgno = imap_msgno( $your_initialized_connection, $msguid );

Will leave ($msgno==1) - this is probably not what you want, and it's surprisingly easy to miss while you're doing the basic testing.

CHARGERS NOTES: Gates likes new roster makeup By SCOTT BAIR email@example.com SAN DIEGO — The Chargers' roster was renovated during the offseason, bringing a heightened level of excitement to the first day of full-squad training camp practices. Much of the talk centered around veteran acquisitions such as linebacker Jarret Johnson and receivers Robert Meachem and Eddie Royal. But, in Antonio Gates' mind, the Chargers made additions by subtraction. "There were times where guys would get complacent because they had a situation where they do have a big contract or a big signing bonus coming up, and this team has definitely gotten rid of all the prima donnas," Gates said Thursday. "We have a group of guys who go to work each day and want to earn the right to be a San Diego Charger." Though he didn't name names, Gates could only be referring to the few players who were released or left through free agency. That list includes receiver Vincent Jackson, whose contract status was a major distraction in recent seasons. Jackson signed a five-year, $55 million deal with Tampa Bay in the offseason. Gates said that the team culture is a different than in years past. "There's definitely been a change around here," he said. "There is a sense of urgency to everything we do. When you look at each position, you have a handful of guys who can make plays. Competition is high, and it makes the No. 1 guy stay on his game and stay committed. Whether you're a starter or a backup, you're held accountable for everything you do." Chargers coach Norv Turner also admitted that it's nice to go into a training camp that started drama free, with everyone pulling in the same direction. "This is as good as I've felt heading into a training camp," Turner said. "The last two years we've had a lot of things that were distractions. ... This group has a real strong presence, with a lot of veterans who know what it means to prepare the right way."
The purge started a couple years back, Tomlinson, Merriman, Cro, come to mind at first thought. Gates might be alluding to the fact the cycle is now closer to complete than it was going into last season.
Oh I do know about that... I have read everything you have ever posted. That has been my learning material.
Like to hear this, especially from a guy that is a bone fide GUN ....................... some of us knew of these "primma donna's" many moons ago, funny how so many here are willing to admit it now, well after the facts or after a team member actually makes it common knowledge. Merriman, Cromartie, LT, Jackson, McMuffin, Osgood, etc etc were all more interested in self-glory than the team aspect, now lets hope we have a few more who truely are interested in playing in a team concept and creating a winning chemistry that's capable of much better performances on the field.
Damn Conco, your looking almost svelte-like these days ........... Have you given away those late night snacks of "small humanbeings" or what ?
Drugs? Now yer' talkin'! So if all the prima donnas are gone and apparently the locker room has been purged of all the people that have been holding this team back... ...wait... ...we've heard all this before... ...oh well... crank up the ol' injury excuse machine and let 'er rip... again.

Visual C++ Language forum: The scope, tips and pointers
2006年10月4日 18:06版主
Welcome to the Visual C++ Language forum!
The scope of this forum is the C++ language, compiler and linker, and also covers all
standardized languages, extensions and interop technologies supported by Visual C++.
For other questions related to Visual C++, including the development environment, libraries, setup, debugger, samples and documentation, please visit the Visual C++ General forum.
A few specialized newsgroups worth mentioning are win32.programmer.ole for COM, win32.programmer.ui for UI and win32.programmer.mmedia for Multimedia. It's otherwise a good idea to read through the newsgroup directory, in addition to the forum directory before picking the final destination.
If you still feel that you are in the right place, do read on!
Best practice reminders
- Try searching for keywords related to your problem before asking. Chances are it's been dealt with before. Please note, though; if you find another thread which is just barely related to your issue, start a new thread rather than changing the course of the old one. New, unanswered, threads will get you more attention.
- Please mark your threads as answered if you feel that your question has received the appropriate response, and / or has been resolved.
- Avoid asking the same question in more than one place, unless specifically told so. Duplicate questions means duplicate effort, and that makes for grumpy contributors.
Tips for asking a question
- Please include a clear and descriptive subject.
- Limit the amount of attached source code, and do what you can to point out where you suspect that the problem lies.
- Remember to include error information, but try not to limit the post to the error message alone.
- Putting a little extra work into the question is likely to yield a quicker and more accurate response. This will save your time, as well as that of the contributors
Thanks for visiting!

I love the roosters!
Well, well well. If I see any dead roosters this will be an act of premeditated murder Jason. I love the roosters, friendly and beautiful feathers. They are part of the island and they will be my first memory o it. I must say I was not surprised by the scenery here. Never the less, they are stunningly soothing on the eyes. The beaches were variably pleasant depending on the waves. Anini beach and Ke'e were our favorites. As for the apartment thank you for letting us use the scuba diving gear and bicycles - and what a lovely album photos of your family. Time to go back to LA. So good bye! — Anonymous, Las Angela, CA |

Since I started writing this blog, I have known I would need to address the issue of my religious and spiritual beliefs, because the wide array of topics I will delve into in this blog may attract readers from all faiths, backgrounds, and physical locations. And I don't want to catch anyone off guard when I write a crafting post that details how to make some item that is useful or relevant to Pagans and/or Wiccans. My intention is truly not to offend anyone, just to put out some information to educate you on what my religious beliefs are, how they are similar to ideas in other common faiths of the world, and why they are important to me.
I ask that you take a moment to read this post. If you decide after reading that you cannot follow or be friends with someone with pagan beliefs, I will understand. But at least give me this one chance to try to separate the vast amounts of scary misinformation out there from the truth of my faith and practices. Thank you.
Paganism, like the term Christianity, is a catch-all umbrella term used to describe many specific religions that are similar. In Christianity, all the specific faiths believe that there is one Father God and that he had a son named Jesus who died for the sins of humanity that we might be forgiven and enter the Kingdom of Heaven despite being flawed and imperfect. In Paganism, religions are polytheistic, meaning that we believe in more than one god and/or goddess, and generally we believe that people have the ability to make change by the power of one's will and the energies we may receive through prayer to our god(s). Pagan religions also are nature-based, giving reverence to the Earth and Nature as powerful spiritual entities, and our rites and practices tend to follow the seasons and the cycle of hunt and harvest.
Wicca is a specific Pagan religion, much like Catholicism is a type of Christianity. In Wicca, we believe in a sort of Divine Trinity – The One is a vast and intensely powerful creative force that permeates the Universe. All things are created through the One. However, the One is incomprehensible to mortals, and so It chose to create gods and goddesses that could interact more meaningfully with the creatures and worlds It created. The One made God and the Goddess, the Divine Masculine and Feminine personalities that we as Wiccans pray to and honor in our rites, in order for us to have a more personal embodiment of the Divine to work with. The God is the master of animals and the hunt, and He is the Sun rising in the East. The Goddess is Mother of all, the fertile earth and all its green growing things. She is also seen as the soft light of the moon and of mysterious darkness. As Wiccans we believe that Magick (change empowered through will) is created from power inherent in ourselves, inherent in nature, and granted to us through prayer to our gods. One of the main tenets of Wicca is that whatever you do, whatever energy you put out, will come back on you in three times the amount. So if I did good things for others, or did positive Magick, I will benefit from 3 times the positive energy from someone or something else in the near future. But if I do harmful things, or practice harmful Magick, I should expect to be repaid in kind, threefold. This is like instant Karma. So we believe that we are rewarded or punished by Nature Herself for what we do in this lifetime. Usually that's enough to keep Wiccans conscious of their choices and leaning more towards positive actions and energies when possible. We also have just one "commandment" that is pretty much universally recognized among Wiccans – "An it harm none, do what thou will."
I want to pick apart that rule, referred to as "The Wiccan Rede" among us. Firstly, "an" is old english for "if" and "thou" is "you". Beyond that there are two key ideas. First, there is "harm none". What does that mean? Generally, Wiccans interpret this as to literally hurt no one or no things, not even ourselves. Before we take any action, we should consider how it will affect the world around us, our neighbors, strangers, and ourselves. This is akin to the last 6 of the Ten Commandments of Christianity, where followers are told not to do harmful things to others and to respect them. The final word, which seems cut-and-dried when you first read the Rede, is "will". Many people, upon first encountering The Wiccan Rede, see will as a synonym for want. "If it doesn't hurt anyone, do what you want." But I believe that's untrue, because that implies any whim or fancy someone might have. I think that the Rede goes further than that, and asks us to be willful in our actions, to do only the things that our minds and hearts are fully behind. The Rede challenges us to live our lives with conscience and consideration. That is what I think word "will" means in this context.
You will notice that our greatest law is only equitable to the last 6 Commandments in Christian theology. We have no analogous rules that match up with the first 4 Commandments, because those Commandments deal with the relationship between Christians and their God. The first 4 Commandments tell Christians to put no other gods before God the Father (note, however, that this statement recognizes that there are other gods in the world but that Yahweh is the most important), and that people should not worship images of God but rather God Himself, and that the Sabbath day should be kept as a day for worship not work. Wicca in general does not have specific rules like this, and so you may ask 10 different Wiccans about their gods and goddesses and get completely different answers about the identities of each. Wicca has within it many Traditions, or informal churches (I mean the individual congregations at specific churches here) and each has its own specific rules that members should follow, so there may be other ways that some Wiccans believe adherents should behave in relationship to the gods, but these may vary from Tradition to Tradition.
If you are a Christian who has never learned much about Wicca or Paganism in the past, or has heard unkind and vastly untrue tales of "Satanism" and the nature of "witchcraft" among Pagans, you might be wondering why someone would choose the Wiccan faith over Christianity, which offers salvation through Jesus and an eternity in Heaven for the repentant faithful. Wicca and other forms of Paganism also deal with the afterlife. Many Wiccans and Pagans believe in Reincarnation. This is the idea that, after death in this life, we are reborn to another life on earth, with different parents, perhaps in a different country, and a different set of life circumstances to learn from. The point of this is that the human soul exists in eternity and, though we generally cannot remember specifics of previous lives during the current one, the soul learns from each lifetime it spends on earth in a body. Mistakes and successes we make in our lives not only help us change our ways in each life, but also help our souls grow and learn over lifetimes. Eventually, through a varying amount of reincarnations (because some may learn faster or slower than others) we learn all that we can learn and become complete. At this time, after death, Wiccans enter into the Summerlands, a place like Christian Heaven to an extent, where we may dwell eternally with the Goddess and the God.
I believe that no one religion is 100 percent right or wrong. Humans are mortal creatures that have a limited perception of the Universe and thus are quite capable of incorrect ideas and assumptions of how things work. There are so many religions across the world, all of them seeking to answer the big questions – Why are we here? What is the meaning of life? What happens after death? And all of them have different answers. Perhaps there are actually individual answers for individual people – rather, perhaps the truth is different for each person according to their beliefs. I am not sure. I choose to have an open mind about such things.
Whether you agree with my ideas about religion or not, I appreciate you sitting through this discussion. I'd like to hear your respectful thoughts, one way or another, so feel free to comment and ask questions. I'll answer as best I can according to my beliefs and understanding. Just understand that because Pagan beliefs are much more personal that Christian ideals, my answer is probably not true for every Pagan, nor even another Wiccan.
I will probably not bring up my religious beliefs in such dense conversation very often on this blog. I bring them up now to show you why, in the future, a blog post of mine may refer to something about Wicca or Paganism, or may have to do with a craft project that is of interest to Wiccans or Pagans. As I said, it's not my intention to offend or exclude anyone, so I hope I have not offended anyone or pushed them away.
Please do let me know, in a respectful manner, your thoughts in the comments.
Thank you, and Blessed Be.

A place where you can get your meth/weed fix,get a haircut,get some ass,or buy a shit car,all within 10 feet of each other. 1. I got my fix at the trailer park!!
2. The trailer park in my town is nicknamed "Pussy Holler" due to the large amount of druggie females living there. |
1. | trailer park | ||
an over-priced area of land filled with trailers. usually contains pot heads who didn't/won't graduate, pregnant teenagers, 5 year olds who say 'fuck', nosy old people, one or more displays of the confederate flag, and sometimes (only in crowded ones) a meth lab. occupied by white trash and avoided by most people. Did you see Cops yesterday? The hick who got arrested lives in a trailer park.
2. | trailer park | ||
Where hurricanes and tornados are born. Have you ever seen coverage of a hurricane or tornado without a clip of a trailer park being ravaged?
3. | trailer park | ||
ghetto for white people as in projects for black people I know a guy who lives in a trailer park and he eats mayonnaise sandwiches and fucks his sister.
5. | trailer park | ||
A Small community of people who live in trailers.
Contrary to popular stereotype-driven belief that all trailer parks are full of white trash losers, there are plenty of perfectly decent blue collar people who live in them that, for one or another set of circumstances, can't afford to live in a regular house. There are plenty of low-lives who live in houses just as there are plenty of good people who live in trailer parks.
6. | Trailer Park | ||
A derogtory name for someone who is or acts like trailer trash. "Hey there, Trailer Park, how ya doin'?"

Texas also holds a gubernatorial race in 2014. The current governor, Rick Perry, has yet to say whether he'll run.
He's also the chairman of Maverick PAC, an organization that aims to raise money through grassroots support rather than from traditional big money contributors, even though the group has an affiliated super PAC targeting deeper-pocketed GOP donors.
"We are building a member base that will last well into perpetuity," Jay Zeidman, finance chairman of MavPAC, told CNN in July.
MavPAC supported young, Republican candidates like Illinois Rep. Aaron Schock and Ohio Senate hopeful Josh Mandel, who lost his bid against incumbent Sen. Sherrod Brown. As of October 17, the group had raised $493,645 and had $152,974 cash on hand, according to reports with the Federal Election Commission. Its super PAC raised $1.5 million since January 2011 that went to messaging to young voters.
