It's hard to imagine that a wooden boat built in the early 1920's that was designed to bash its way through arctic waters is still sailing open waters and hasn't disintegrated or been locked up in a museum. But, the Maine Maritime Academy is working hard at making sure the arctic schooner Bowdoin remains exactly where she was meant to be: in the water.
And thanks to the work of two MMA professors, Betsy Reese and Peg Brandon, and the Castine Historical Society, the untold stories of this historic vessel are being presented to the public through homecoming weekend.
The Bowdoin was commissioned by Donald B. MacMillan, an arctic explorer, after the ill-fated Crocker Land Expedition in which he and his crew were stranded for four years in the frozen and deadly waters of Melville Bay off the coast of Greenland. It took three rescue attempts before a vessel was able to successfully reach the explorers. During those four years he waited to be rescued, MacMillan envisioned his ideal arctic exploring vessel, a vision which would later become the Bowdoin.
After his rescue, MacMillan served in the Navy during World War I and began saving his money for the construction on his ship. After the War he hired New Bedford, Massachusetts native William H. Hand to design his ship based on the specifications he came up with. He then hired the Hodgdon brothers out of East Boothbay, Maine to construct the eighty-eight foot long vessel.
The Bowdoin was launched in 1921.
During his forty-six year career, MacMillan made more than twenty-six voyages notching more than 300,000 miles with the Bowdoin. But it wasn't just MacMillan's pioneering adventures that make up the long history of the Bowdoin. In 1941 MacMillan sold the ship to the U.S. Navy for the mission of helping establish airfields in Greenland and to conduct surveys of northern waters.
"As soon as the Germans invaded Denmark it was very apparent to the U.S. that Greenland was strategically important to the allied effort," said Brandon. "It was important for three reasons, the cryolite mine… that is important for aluminum productions and therefore making airplanes. It was important for airbases, so that we could fly to Europe and so [the Germans] couldn't fly here. And it was important for weather and radio stations because if you know what's going on in Greenland you know what's going on in Europe."
These missions off the coast of Greenland became known as the Greenland Patrol and played an important role in establishing airfields and weather stations that had a direct influence on the war effort beginning with the invasion of Normandy on D-Day. However, there is still a large amount of the ship's history missing from this period and Reese and Brandon have made it their mission to uncover more. With the help of a grant from the William Wood Foundation, the two colleagues have been able to hire students to assist in the research of journals and maps to help uncover the past.
"Every lead we've followed turned in to another great story," said Brandon.
The search for the Bowdoin's missing history began when the family of David Nutt, the executive officer on the Bowdoin during World War II, gave MMA a portfolio of charts that had been on the Bowdoin during the war. Brandon and Reese searched through the maps trying to learn as much as they could from them while trying to find a place to keep them. Eventually their interest in the maps spread to the student population and the Castine Historical Society because of the strong ties the Bowdoin has to the town of Castine.
"It's been a great partnership between the Castine Historical Society and Maine Maritime Academy," Brandon added. "And I think the Castine Historical Society people and the public have really enjoyed working with the students."
"Every time I go somewhere I get stopped by someone who says they are just thrilled with the students," said Reese. "It's been a pleasure to come in to town because people stop me and say 'oh my gosh these students are so nice.'"
After the war, in 1945, MacMillan bought his boat back from the Navy for the price of $3,000. For nine more years MacMillan piloted the schooner to the harsh northern seas around Greenland.
After MacMillan's retirement the boat belonged to the Schooner Bowdoin Association until 1988 when the Maine Maritime Academy purchased the vessel for the purpose of training students. In 1990 the Bowdoin returned to the artic for the first time since the 1950's and has been a total of three times since the academy acquired the ship.
Today the Bowdoin is operated as a training vessel for MMA students and provides cruises for the public.

WASHINGTON -- Who killed JFK?
Fifty years after the slaying of the nations 35th president, thats still a provocative question for many.
Conspiracy theories began swirling almost immediately after President John F. Kennedys assassination in Dallas on Nov. 22, 1963, and have never really stopped.
A spate of new books re-examining that moment in anticipation of the 50th anniversary has revived some theories, tried to squelch others and found intriguing new details of botched investigations or deliberate concealment by authorities.
Theres a ready audience: Sixty-one percent of the American people believe that Lee Harvey Oswald did not act alone in killing the president, according to the most recent Gallup poll, released Friday. While the percentage of those who believe in a conspiracy is the lowest since the late 1960s, it confirms the publics ongoing doubts about the lone gunman theory.
The likely conspirators?
The poll found that 13 percent believe the Mafia and 13 percent think the federal government was involved; 7 percent named the CIA; 5 percent each for Cuban leader Fidel Castro, special interests and political groups; the Ku Klux Klan, then-Vice President Lyndon Johnson and the Soviet Union each drew 3 percent.
The random-sample poll of 1,039 people 18 and older was conducted Nov. 7-10. It has a margin of error of plus or minus 4 percentage points.The belief in a conspiracy hasnt diminished in nearly 50 years of polling. Doubts also persist about the findings of the Warren Commission, which was created by Johnson, after he became president, to investigate the assassination and was led by Supreme Court Chief Justice Earl Warren.
It is a deep-seated belief that no single man could commit what some consider the crime of the century thats been part of the American psyche since the 1960s and that got a Hollywood boost from director Oliver Stones conspiracy-fueled 1991 re-creation, JFK.
But its also one that no one speaks about too loudly, as Secretary of State John Kerry discovered earlier this month when he said publicly that he didnt think Oswald had acted alone, only to clam up within days.
To this day, I have serious doubts that Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone, Kerry told NBC News Tom Brokaw for a 50th anniversary package. I certainly have doubts that he was motivated by himself.
Kerry touched on several of the theories that have swirled around the assassination: Was more than one gunman involved? Beside Oswalds perch on the sixth floor of the Texas School Book Depository, did more shots come from the grassy knoll at Dealey Plaza?Did Cuba and the former Union of Soviet Socialist Republics communist nations furious at being pressured to remove Soviet missiles from Cuba figure in Oswalds action?
Im not sure if anybody else was involved, Kerry said. I dont go down that road with respect to the grassy knoll theory and all of that. But I have serious questions about whether they got to the bottom of Lee Harvey Oswalds time and influence from Cuba and Russia.
Oswald, a former Marine, defected to the USSR for several years and married a Russian woman before returning to Texas. He was also considered a Cuban government sympathizer who, seven weeks before the Dallas shooting, was in Mexico City trying to get a visa to Cuba.
Kerry told Brokaw that he didnt agree with another popular theory that the CIA was behind the assassination. Some skeptics of the Warren Commission report maintain that the Central Intelligence Agency was humiliated by Kennedys refusal to provide air cover for the Bay of Pigs plan, a failed effort that the agency backed to invade Cuba and overthrow Castro.But when Kerry then appeared on NBCs Meet the Press, presumably to talk about foreign policy issues, the former Massachusetts senator refused to respond to questions about the assassination.
But others have weighed in.
In A Cruel and Shocking Act: The Secret History of the Kennedy Assassination, former New York Times reporter Philip Shenon opens his book with a revelation that the Navy pathologist who examined Kennedys body burned the original autopsy report because it contained drops of the presidents blood. The book also has new details about Oswalds time in Mexico City, including meetings with the Russian KGB, which the CIA allegedly hid from the Warren Commission investigation.
In Mexico City there were a lot of people who wanted to see Kennedy dead who met with Oswald, Shenon said.
Still, Shenon isnt pushing a conspiracy theory.
All the most credible evidence points to Oswald as the shooter of the president and the killer of Tippit, he said of Dallas police Officer J.D. Tippit, who was killed trying to detain Oswald. My suspicions are who else knew and if he was encouraged to do it.
University of Virginia professor Larry Sabato concludes in The Kennedy Half-Century after extensive research that the evidence of a fourth shot and therefore a second gunman instead of the three shots witnesses heard was wrong. Studies of recordings from an open microphone on a Dallas police officers motorcycle dont include the sound of any shots, said Sabato, because it was too far away.
The debate over Nov. 22 will likely never end, he said at the books release at Washingtons Newseum last month, adding that the Warren Commission has led to 50 years of unending suspicions and cynicism.
While hes confident that no evidence of a fourth shot shows up on recordings of the incident made at the time, Sabato doesnt close the door to all conspiracies.
Republican political consultant Roger Stones The Man Who Killed Kennedy: The Case Against LBJ is a conspiracy-laden work that brings the CIA, the FBI, the Mafia and Texas oilmen together under a manipulative then-Vice President Johnson who wants to be president. Johnson died in 1973.
This guy is an amoral psychopath, Stone said in an interview.
A Texan, Johnson insisted on the trip to the Lone Star State despite Kennedys reluctance to go to a hard-core conservative area, Stone said. Johnson also allegedly thought hed be dumped from the ticket when Kennedy faced re-election in 1964.
I believe Johnson was the yoke of the conspiracy, Stone said, in which he included disgruntled mob bosses whod given money to Kennedys father to help with the 1960 election, only to be subsequently investigated by an aggressive Attorney General Robert Kennedy, the presidents brother. Stone also maintains there were multiple shooters.
Julian Read, the press aide to Texas Gov. John Connally who was wounded in the car that was carrying the president and first lady Jacqueline Kennedy disputes the notion of a conspiracy in his book, JFKs Final Hours in Texas: An Eyewitness Remembers the Tragedy and Its Aftermath.
No one could keep a secret that long if there was a conspiracy, he quotes Connally as having said.
To the author, the assassination had a searing impact on Americans, and now people want to find peace with it. Its the most universally shared experience in our history, Read said.
Hugh Aynesworth was there, too.
Ive never been a conspiracy theorist, said the veteran Texas newspaperman, whos tracked down numerous conspiracies throughout his career. His book, November 22, 1963, Witness to History, has been updated for the 50th anniversary.
Aynesworth was at Dealey Plaza that day, where the president was shot.
I heard three definite, distinct shots, he said, as did those trained observers, police and reporters.
Then he went to Dallas Oak Cliff neighborhood after hearing a report on the police scanner, and arrived just after Tippit was shot.
Following that, Aynesworth dashed to a Texas theater and watched police arrest Oswald. Dallas nightclub owner Jack Ruby subsequently shot and killed Oswald two days later.
He called the theory about Johnson playing a role in Kennedys death totally off the wall. But hes not surprised that so many different suspected plots have endured for so long.
We all love a mystery, he said. We dont feel comfortable with two nobodies changing the course of history, like Ruby and Oswald did.

Given that I'm very much amateur, if they can reach near enough to the same optical performance I'll forgive a bit of AF inconsistency for a few thousand dollars.
Unless the object is flat, say a coin or a medallion, and the background is empty, say a flat colored background, the photos will not be the same.
It's just like portrait photography, with the nose looking too big relative to the ears when shooting from a short distance - perspective works for the front & back parts of the subject same as it works for the subject itself being in the foreground and other stuff being farther away in the background.
Therefore, if you shoot a diamond ring with the diamond facing the camera and the band away from it, the shorter the focal length the larger the diamond will look compared to the band.

When Do Kids Form Their First Memories?
Cultural Differences Influence Early Memory continued...
"As we know from watching Oprah and Dr. Phil it is perfectly OK to talk about yourself in this culture. But in China it is less appropriate to talk about yourself or call attention to yourself," Fivush says. "It is more appropriate to talk about events in the context of the group."
She cites studies finding that children who are asked a lot of questions about their personal experiences and feelings by their mothers tend to develop memory skills earlier. Since dialog among Chinese mothers and their children tends to be less child-centered, memory may develop later.
"In return Chinese children tend to develop other skills, such as a better ability to pay attention," she says. "Of course there are huge individual differences within cultures in how mothers relate to their children."

Reader Comments (Page 1 of 1)
I agree that old gods can be in two places at once, or rather, they tend to be so massive that we may observe them in multiple places at once. We know that C'Thun and Yogg as we saw them were not the entire body, we only saw a fragment. These faceless ones have clearly defined heads and arms that we can see, and seem to share a model that we've seen on occasion and we see frequently in Cataclysm, and that model has clearly defined legs as well. That's the only reason that I don't believe those two things being excavated by the Twilight Cult are connected. Also, if they're connected, then excavating them kind of seems a futile attempt, no?
Of the little that we do know about old gods, the Master's Glaive thing just doesn't fit. From what I've seen of the quests in that area, it's never said that it's an old god, and hinted at strongly that he was one of their stronger servants. As far as his abilities, this is the first time we've seen a creature like this. We don't really have a set standard of measure for power for him or many other things. Archimonde and Kil'jaeden are both very powerful and have demonstrated some unique and god-like abilites on several occasions, but we know that they're not gods or Titans. And no offense, as I do enjoy Know Your Lore, but there is no lore precedent for Avatars being a signifier of a god. We've seen lesser avatars and images created. It makes sense to assume that given enough power any being could create a rather nasty avatar.
My ultimate theory is that Yogg and C'Thun were both lesser old gods, sort of like Titans that we know are titans, but not part of the Pantheon. From the War of the Ancients, it doesn't make sense to assume that Yogg and C'Thun were included in those old gods planning on usurping Sargeras' Well of Eternity portal to escape. Rather, I think that those old gods, the true head of the snake, if you will, reside on a plane that was also suggested by Bornakk in the latest round of Ask a CDev questions.
Either way, the Twilight Highlands quests will hopefully shed some light on all this. I expect it will reveal that these creatures are some sort of Faceless One generals.

Preview: Highlanders v Reds
Is this to be the week the Highlanders record their first win of Super Rugby 2013? The Reds will hope to postpone that occurrence in Dunedin on Friday.
Make no bones about it, the Highlanders are not a bottom of the table franchise and they will soon be climbing the conference after they stop this rot.
Four defeats from four has made for horror reading for coach Jamie Joseph but the signs are definitely there that the first win is on the horizon.
Individual performances of Kade Poki (absent this week), Ben Smith, Hosea Gear and Elliot Dixon have been solid, but unfortunately the collective has struggled to put on a display to better the Chiefs (twice), Cheetahs and Hurricanes. We just get that feeling though the Reds be their first win.
Forsyth Barr Stadium needs to become a fortress if they are to revive their year and with only three home games scheduled until June the squad desperately needs to make this Friday count. They have a clutch of away fixtures approaching but should they turn the corner, all are winnable.
Team news sees the return of All Blacks Andrew Hore and Tony Woodcock while the loss of Poki on the wing is cushioned by Buxton Popoali'i coming in. Promising youngster Jason Emery meanwhile is rewarded with his third successive start - he needs Ma'a Nonu to recapture his form to help him flourish.
The Reds are difficult to assess in that they seem to have lost their entertaining brand that thrilled the masses a few years ago. Instead they now adopt a more rigid gameplan that is apparent by the fact they've scored only 107 points in their six games, an average of 17.83.
The Highlanders, in contrast, like an open game so it will be interesting to see if the Reds come out of their shell in front of 'The Zoo' in Otago. They're also boosted by the return of an international as Liam Gill returns on the openside while James Horwill will again start.
Both teams need a win but for very different reasons. So will it be the hosts finally getting off the mark in Super Rugby 2013 or the Reds putting some pressure on the Brumbies?
Super head-to-head: Internationals face off in a handful of positions this Friday as Tony Woodcock, Andrew Hore, Brad Thorn, Aaron Smith and others face James Slipper, James Hanson, James Horwill, Will Genia. We are most looking forward to the Colin Slade versus Quade Cooper battle at 10 though. Both are some way off their best form and their side's hopes of getting Ma'a Nonu and Ben Tapuai making inroad will be vital.
Prediction: Fifth time lucky...the Highlanders by 5!
The teams:
Highlanders: 15 Ben Smith, 14 Buxton Popoali'i, 13 Jason Emery, 12 Ma'a Nonu, 11 Hosea Gear, 10 Colin Slade, 9 Aaron Smith, 8 Elliot Dixon, 7 John Hardie, 6 Jarrad Hoeata, 5 Josh Bekhuis, 4 Brad Thorn (c), 3 Chris King, 2 Andrew Hore, 1 Tony Woodcock.
Replacements: 16 Liam Coltman, 17 Ma'afu Fia, 18 TJ Ioane, 19 Tim Boys, 20 Fumiaki Tanaka, 21 Lima Sopoaga, 22 Phil Burleigh.
Reds: 15 Jono Lance, 14 Dom Shipperley, 13 Anthony Faingaa, 12 Ben Tapuai, 11 Luke Morahan, 10 Quade Cooper, 9 Will Genia, 8 Jake Schatz, 7 Liam Gill, 6 Eddie Quirk, 5 James Horwill (c), 4 Rob Simmons, 3 James Slipper, 2 James Hanson, 1 Greg Holmes.
Replacements: 16 Albert Anae, 17 Ben Daley, 18 Ed O'Donoghue, 19 Jarrad Butler, 20 Ben Lucas, 21 Aidan Toua, 22 Rod Davies.

Associated Press
Brian Randolph made a game-clinching, fourth-and-goal interception in
the end zone with 1:51 remaining as Tennessee squandered most of a
24-point lead before hanging on for a 31-24 victory over South Alabama.
Alabama (2-2) had first-and-goal at the 7 in the closing minutes but
was unable to get the tying touchdown. Facing fourth-and-goal from the
8, South Alabama quarterback Ross Metheny was hit by Corey Vereen while releasing the pass that Randolph intercepted.
Rajion Neal rushed for a career-high 169 yards on 25 carries. Neal's
11-yard touchdown run gave Tennessee (3-2) a 31-7 lead early in the
third quarter.
Metheny was 21 of 42 for 234 yards with two interceptions. He also rushed for 67 yards and two touchdowns.
overcame a three-interception performance from Justin Worley, who was
20 of 36 for 234 yards. Worley threw touchdown passes to freshmen A.J.
Branisel and Josh Smith.
Two top 10 teams were upset this week, and to the surprise of few, they were Southern Cal and Georgia.

You're receiving this CLE and Events Notice as a member of the Animal Law Section.
Having trouble viewing this email? View it in your browser.
Straight from the headlines comes this timely seminar. Whether you are a civil practitioner, prosecutor or defense counsel, or just a pet owner, this program will give you what you need to know to understand Minnesota animal cruelty law.
The program will explain the roles of state humane agents, veterinarians, lawyers and judges in the civil process of animal seizures and rescues, and the criminal process in prosecutions of those who would abuse or neglect animals in Minnesota.
Each attendee will receive a new, 280-page, MFHS compilation of state and federal statutes and rules governing the protection of animals in Minnesota. The seminar will be highly focused on statutes, rules, and the related legal procedures. (The presentation of graphic visual occurrences of animal cruelty will be limited.)
Patrick R. Burns, Lawyers Professional Responsibility Office
Mr. Burns will discuss the ethical considerations lawyers must make when representing individuals charged with animal cruelty, and when representing individuals whose animals are subject to proceedings to remove them pursuant to warrants alleging animal abuse, cruelty or neglect. Many such individuals may be suffering from mental illness and Mr. Burns will discuss the ethical ramifications for lawyers involved in court proceedings representing such clients.
Reese Frederickson, Kanabec County Attorneys Office
Mr. Frederickson will be speaking, from the view of a prosecutor, on how to prepare and present the evidence needed to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that an alleged violator has committed animal cruelty in Minnesota. Mr. Frederickson has worked with the Minnesota Federated Humane Societies' State Humane Agents on several cases in the past, and has successfully prosecuted animal cruelty and neglect cases in Kanabec County. He has lectured at MFHS Advanced State Humane Trainings and is very knowledgeable in criminal law and procedure as they relate to animal cruelty prosecutions.
Timothy J. Shields, Shields Legal Services PA
Mr. Shields celebrates his 30th year of legal practice this year, having graduated from the University of Florida in 1977, and William Mitchell College of Law in 1981. His practice is largely district court and appellate litigation. He has served on the MSBA Board of Governors, the HCBA Governing Council, the Hennepin County Bar Foundation Board of Directors, and is a past President and current board member of Volunteer Lawyers Network. In addition to his legal practice, for the last 15 years, he has served as General Counsel and administrator to the Minnesota Federated Humane Societies, the umbrella organization for the state's local and district humane societies. The MFHS trains, certifies and appoints Minnesota's State Humane Agents, and Mr. Shields works closely with them providing legal advice and support. He is a frequent lecturer on animal cruelty issues at the University of Minnesota Vet school, the U of M Ag department, and works closely with the U of M law school's Animal Law student organization. He works on a daily basis with county attorneys, city attorneys, sheriff departments and local police departments, advising them on proper legal procedures for animal cruelty investigation, warrants, seizures and prosecutions.

Herocraft! It needs you :3, [map: Parallax] [art:All] [oth:Beta Testing] [oth:Writer]
Jan 15 2012, 03:05 AM
Post #1
Type: Designer
Alignment: Lawful Good
I'm developing a Social Sim game for those who want to see a bit of a break from the hardcore RPG design. The project is slightly ambitious, as I would like to show off my game design skills to a professional audience. I've put a LOT of effort into the game so far, and would like to see that effort picked up in areas I lack expertise in.
The Project Development Thread can be found here, detailing the game:
I've seen parallax mapping, and would love to have the maps I've done parallaxed so they're less square, and more aesthetically pleasing. I can even edit the parallax set you use to make it fit in with seasonal transitions.
I've done a lot of maps in the traditional RMVX style. I don't have a lot of time to spend with parallax, as my focus right now is implementing functions and gameplay. I have done a lot of tileset modding to make sure my game offers something unique though, and have begun parallaxing some of my maps.
I will provide you with detailed diagrams and writing so you know what you're doing at every stage of the parallaxing, and aren't forced to stare at the map thinking "What's next?"
I will also be available 24/7 to answer questions.
I have Photoshop/GIMP so I can assist with the Parallaxing easily when need be.
I know how to parallax myself, so I can be of help to those who help me. :3
I also know how to modify tilesets easily, and can do so to get you something you need.
Currently I use Celianna and Lunarea's Parallax set with some Ying foliage.
I also use Mack where Celianna and Lunarea's stuff ends.
I would also love an artist. Be it spriter, tileset editor, or full character or faceset drawer. As long as you can draw consistently I can use you.
A large number of NPCs are being created, and Faces or Busts would be useful.
As well, I could also use the help with modifying sprites and tilesets.
My primary writer has disappeared on me, unfortunately. I assume his life has become too busy. He will retain his position for the life of the project though, as he's been loyal to it. However because he's not here to produce content, I need a writer who can do some dialogue in his stead. There is a lot of dialogue to write for many NPCs. There's many NPCs to be created as well, and some content to be produced and written for, along with a few mini-plots.
As this game has no commercial plans, I'm not seeking commissioned workers. If the game does, for whatever reason, change that plan you will be paid for your work. I think if enough talented people work on this project it will see itself placed out for commercial sale. But at present the game is mainly to show off talents to potential employers in the game industry. (And is one of many engines I use to achieve this goal)
I wanted to point out that this game has been going for a while. It's RRR thread can be found here, and a engine demo is due to be released in the next couple days.

Herocraft is now looking for a second writer. You'll be working alongside WanderingWordsmith. The details are as follows:
For now, the writer we take on will be partially responsible for the creation of Herocraft's NPCs. Each NPC will require a short profile detailing aspects of their character. Once that's done - eventually - we'll discuss the writer's role in other aspects of the game; namely dialogue trees, quest responses, dating scenarios etc.
Thanks for any and all interest in recruitment :3

I would like to help out with your project. At first Herocraft sounded like a RPG Maker version of Minecraft and I was like; "dude if you complete this then you have made an amazing game worthy of pernament downloads".

Matthew Kennedy is set for his first appearance in an Everton shirt for the Under-21s on Friday.
Alan Stubbs' side head to Reading with the deadline day arrival from Kilmarnock set to feature.
The Blues are also boosted by the return of Shane Duffy and Apostolos Vellios from international duty as they seek a first point of the campaign.
Portuguese midfielder Francisco Junior is also set for a run-out after a brief injury lay-off.
A bullish Stubbs told evertontv: "I am expecting a performance. I am expecting us to get a result and I am expecting a turnaround from the losses we have had in recent games.
"It's not ideal having players away as we haven't got a big squad as it is. We understand that it is going to be that way and it's great for the lads to be involved internationally.
"We will leave on Thursday but I am preparing as if we won't have too many experienced players because we have the first team game on Monday."
The clash with the Royals will take place at Reading's training ground on Friday, kick off 1.30pm. Updates will be available on the official Twitter feed and evertonfc.com.
Everton: Taudul, Browning, Garbutt, Lundstram, Duffy, Hammar, Grant, Junior, Vellios, Kelly, Kennedy, Springthorpe, Hope, Forrester, Pennington, Green.

February 13, 2013, 7:47 AM — There's been virtually no end in sight to the Chromebook phenomenon over the past few months, with new entries popping up practically every time you turn around.
It was Acer and Samsung that kicked off the line, of course, but since then we've seen both HP and Lenovo join the fray.
The latest rumors, however, point to something many will likely consider more exciting: a high-end Chromebook from Google itself dubbed the Chromebook Pixel.
'4 million pixels'
The rumors began last week with the appearance of a purportedly leaked video on YouTube.
"A new kind of computer, designed entirely by Google," proclaims the narrator of the video, which was apparently created by the mysterious Slinky.Me agency. "Concept video for a 2560x1700 resolution, touch-enabled Chromebook with 4 million pixels" is how the accompanying text describes the device.
Fresh evidence
Speculation has been running wild since then, of course--tempered at least to some extent by a healthy dose of skepticism, which hasn't been diminished by some additional investigation done by CNET. People have long been seeing "signs" of a Google Chromebook on the horizon.
This week, however, Jan Willem Aldershoff, founder of digital storage community MyCE, claimed to have found evidence in Google's own code pointing to the veracity of this latest round of rumors.

Things I liked:Weight. Action. Trigger pull. Accuracy. Rubber grips. Realistic looks. Double and single action. CO2 system and loading. Clip release. Overall feel. BB velocity.
Things I would have changed:Safety is in the right place but very hard to move. Hopefully will loosen up with use. The catch on the loading spring of the BB clip is a little tough to latch, but not terrible.
What others should know:LOVE this gun! I read A LOT of reviews. There weren't a lot on this gun, but most were very complimentary. On things I liked - all of the ones listed above. Weight and action are great. The trigger pull is very realistic in both SA and DA. The SA trigger pull is much lighter and increases accuracy. The rubber grips are wonderful. This gun is a blast to shoot! Can hardly put it down! I think accuracy is great once you get used to the sights which initially seem to always shoot high. At 20 feet in a standing position, I can consistently put about 90% of my shots in a 2 1/2" Gamo target circle. At 30 feet on sandbags, I can get that same level of accuracy. For a BB pistol, I think that's pretty impressive! Did I say I LOVE this gun?? I don't know how many shots I got with the CO2 cartridge, but it seemed like a lot and didn't seem to lose much power until the last couple of shots. But when it quits, it quits! I really think SA & DA are a must have. There is no blow-back action but that means nothing to me. I imagine that that just decreases velocity and wastes CO2 power. I don't miss that at all. I haven't shot at critters yet, only targets, but am terrifically happy with this gun!! I'm on my 2nd CO2 cartridge so I imagine I've already shot over 100 shots. This gun is a lot of fun! It's almost scary how realistic it looks and feels.
Things I liked:The balanced weight is very good. The gun is relatively easy to load ammo and CO2 cartridge.
Things I liked:This is a comfortable pistol to hold and shoot with the rubber grips. First I've seen on a bb gun and I hope the trend continues with others. Full size metal drop out magazine is a definite plus. Very firm click when inserting the mag into the pistol. Plastic slide surprised me with it's tight tolerance and zero wobble. Just like the CZ75 P-07 Duty, the slide fits inside the frame and works very well. single and double action trigger is a plus if you don't want to cock the gun with each shot. Markings on this gun are flawless and the polymer used is very sturdy. At 1.5lbs it is very solid in the hand. Windage adjustable rear sight adds to the accuracy.
Things I would have changed:Metal slide would be a bonus, slide lock would add to the coolness. Other than that, it is an absolutely fine pistol.
What others should know:The gun is heavier than you would expect out of an all plastic bb gun. Fit in the hand is so nice you won't want to put it down. Trigger is nice and crisp. Careful when installing CO2 and perhaps watch a couple videos showing the best way to do this.

Craig G's 2nd LP definitely has some solid cuts. Someday I'll put together a mix called Space Jams, and this will be on it. Surprisingly, the Monstar's Anthem probably won't.

Gaylord Budget Vacation Rentals(10)

Recent Gaylord Reviews
Rustic Cabin
The property was exactly as it is portrayed: rustic cabin in the woods. The lake was perfect for a large group of young kids who were happy to spend the day catching minnows with buckets and take the paddle boat out for a ride. Lifejackets and beach toys were available. LOVED having a washer and dryer so we could go home with suitcases full of clean clothes. Cabin was very close to a descent size town which made for easy grocery shopping and had many family friendly restaurants. We also found a nice little park in town as well as a mini-golf course and go-kart track. Would definitely recommend if you're looking for a true cabin experience.
A Fantastic and Unique Summer Getaway
The Honeymoon Cabin, and the entire Wild Winds vacation area, is a wonderful way to take a step out of the every day stresses of life and into peaceful serenity. A small group of friends and I rented the cabin for 7 nights this past week, and we could not have possibly been more satisfied. To start, the listing is completely accurate, aside from the fact that it does no justice for how beautiful this location is. And that really is it, location, location, location, this spot needs to be seen in person to truly understand how great it is. Firstly, the cabin we stayed in, "The Honeymoon Cabin", was neat, clean, and surprisingly larger than we expected. This size was of course much to our delight, for the price of rent, there is really no going wrong with this cabin. The bathroom and kitchen was stocked with the necessary dishes and utensils, the bathroom was full of clean and folded towels, and the bedrooms were each neat and incredibly comfortable. All in all the cabin was cozy, and perfectly livable, no complaints from our end at all. The next big part of the stay was the lake, which is right next to the cabins. A small stone stairway leads down to the beach and dock. Here you'll find multiple boats, chairs, and a fire pit. Lake Wequas itself is large and peaceful. There is no wake, and there was never more than 1-2 other boats on the water while we were out. The canoes are extremely fun, and for those who don't feel like rowing, there is a quality 3 seated paddle boat also docked on the shore. Swimming is great right off the beach, me and my group spent a fair amount of time wading in the water and playing frisbee. Sunsets over this lake are absolutely breathtaking. So if you're looking for site with a clean, swimmable, boatable, and beautiful lake, this is a great bet. The suite of cabins is surrounded by acres of forested land, easily explored on the well kept hiking trails. The forest is speckled with different sorts of wildlife and is more peaceful and secluded than you can imagine. A short hike through the woods will lead you to what is, arguably, the most incredible location on the site, the ponds. Secluded, cool, and just awesome to look at, I personally have never been somewhere as special as the ponds. Swimming, boating, fishing, or just relaxing on the dock, any amount of time here, is time well spent. Moral of the story, if you're looking for a cabin in northern Michigan, stop looking! I drove all the way from Chicago, its worth it.
Good time with family.
Property was as presented in the listing. Very adequate for our needs.

The Administration on Aging Awards $9.4 Million for Senior Medicare Patrol Projects
Monday, July 11, 2005
For Immediate Release
Contact: AoA Press Office
BELLEVUE, WA – The Administration on Aging (AoA) Assistant Secretary Josefina G. Carbonell today awarded $9.4 million to 64 Senior Medicare Patrol projects. These projects will train retired professionals to help older Americans become better health care consumers by identifying unintended Medicare and Medicaid billing errors as well as potentially fraudulent activity. AoA provides these grants to states, territories, local and community-based non-profit organizations.
"Senior Medicare Patrol projects play a vital role in educating consumers about ways they can help ensure the integrity of Medicare and Medicaid programs," said Assistant Secretary for Aging Josefina G. Carbonell. "We are pleased that they will also provide valuable outreach and education on the new prescription drug benefits of the MMA."
The Senior Medicare Patrol projects teach volunteer retired professionals, such as doctors, nurses, accountant, investigators, law enforcement personnel, attorneys and teachers, to help Medicare and Medicaid beneficiaries, their families and caregivers to be better health care consumers.
Since 1997, these projects and other AoA grants have educated or counseled more than two million beneficiaries. Over 47,085 complaints were reported by beneficiaries of which, 4, 365 were referred for action and investigated. The documentation of these complaints by SMPs have resulted in savings of $104.2 million for the Medicare and Medicaid Program.
The 38 new Senior Medicare Patrol Projects awards are as follows:

GREEN BAY, WI (WTAQ) - On a near unanimous vote the Green Bay City Council has approved St. John's homeless shelter request to shelter an additional 20 people a night when it opens its doors November 1st.
Alderman Andy Nicholson was the lone vote against the shelter's request.
The shelter of last resort made the request to amend their conditional use permit to reflect the need in the community to serve up to 84 guests during the winter months.
"The last thing I want to be responsible for is one homeless person dying on the streets of Green Bay because they froze to death" Ald. Joe Moore when making the case on why he voted in favor.
The shelter was operating under a 64-bed limit as of last year, but the city cited the shelter for being overcapacity in late December.
Deacon Tim Reilly with the Catholic Diocese of Green Bay serves as the shelter's board president and says federal guidelines for emergency shelters do not allow them go over 84.
Reilly stated they would never turn anyone away, saying once they reach the 85th person or more, they will have to call police for help or rely on the help from others to be able to give them shelter.
Over the past year, the shelter invested nearly $70,000 to meet building standards required to serve 84 guests.

John Jenkins was the head coach of the now defunct Ottawa Renegades of the Canadian Football League. While he was introduced as the team's new coach, Jenkins along with newly named General Manager Forrest Gregg, never got a chance to field a team as the CFL suspended the team's operations shortly after they were signed by owners Bernard and Lonnie Glieberman.
He was also head coach at the University of Houston from 1990 to 1992. Jenkins was a proponent of the run and shoot offensive scheme. He used this offense while being the offensive coordinator for the USFL's Houston Gamblers and the Toronto Argonauts.
Jenkins coaching career began in earnest as a coach of the Texarkana, Arkansas High Razorbacks. Jenkins played college football at the University of Arkansas. He was a special teams coach for the University of Southern Mississippi in the early eighties. He briefly coached the Arena Football League's Arkansas Twisters as well as the Ottawa Renegades of the CFL.
