Welcome to the neighborhood, Emily Davis
There's new women's boutique on Broadway. The store is called Yellow Boutique and it's owned by Emily Davis, a 30-year-old from Colonie. Yellow Boutique, named for the color Emily said makes her happy, is located in former law offices at 491 Broadway. Walking in feels like a visit to a friend's massive walk-in closet. Emily […] [Read More]

Saratoga Style: Artie
Artie is one cool cat. The chocolate labrador from Wilton doesn't need pants, a shirt or a suit to be stylish. No, Artie's style comes from mellowness not seen in two-year-old labs, and a confidence that he exudes. Artie came to Uncommon Grounds in downtown Saratoga Springs Wednesday with his owner, Mike Barry, and Barry's mother, Roz Angarano. He's hip like that. As the […] [Read More]

Discussion in 'Disney Cruise Meets' started by Minnie321, Feb 27, 2012.
double post. sorry
Log in or Sign up to hide this advert.
My kids are getting several cruise related things for Christmas - luggage, lanyards with Disney gift cards in them (which we will just add to the on board account, but it will be like they have their own money), Disney cruise line tshirts, beach towels and bathing suits (which I bought a few weeks ago on clearance) - so yes many cruise things. I think I might get them both new cameras for Christmas too - both of theirs broke.
I started making FE gifts last night. They are so cute, I think I might make myself one too. I had to order a lot of the supplies I need to make most of them (rural area) and I'm still waiting on some of it to arrive.
It will be a busy time from now until the cruise. I'm making some princess dresses for my DD and she's decided she wants her American Girl to have a pillowcase dress to match her's. I found a cool website with patterns for the princess dresses for 18 inch dolls, so I might as well make them to match too, right?
We just got home from shopping for stuff to make FE. And we found some things we didn't go shopping for but couldn'g pass them up. I actually almost bought your daughter socks with Belle on them in Michaels, but we debated and decided we didn't know the shoe or sock size - they were cute for shoe sizes 7-10 - they were only a dollar so let me know if that would fit her and I may pick them up the next time I am in there.
I am printing stuff right now to make some of my things.
We also bought fabric, ribbon, dowel rods, and some other things my mom said she needed and she is going to make our FE. We debated buying them online and decided we could make them - she is a pretty good with a sewing machine (although right now she had surgery on her hand so I will have to help alot and I am not good with a sewing machine - we will see how they turn out!)
She wears a girls' size 1. She would so love Belle socks!!
I am going to go back and get them - hopefully they will fit her.
Wow have you guys been reading all the threads about the fantasy! I am so glad I was not on that ship - that is my worst fear! One guy said as they went up on a wave you felt weightless and then felt the ship crash down - oh I cannot even imagine!!!
Crazy for sure! I would have been terrified under those conditions. DD would have been in hysterics. I'm just so glad no one was seriously injured and that everyone made it back safely.
I'm definitely praying for those on the East Coast as the storm makes its way up there.
yeah I would have been a bit out of sorts. Although I believe the Fantasy is under Captain Tom's control and that is one great captain! He has avoided storms when we have been onboard before. He is my fav captain out of all of them.
I hope all of you are safe tonight. Even though in Ohio, we are getting some nasty weather here. Seems a part of Sandy is hitting us. The wind is bad---my trampoline has moved across the yard, just hoping it is still here tomorrow. Schools have closed around us, we will see about ours tomorrow. Many have lost power just hoping I won't be one of them. Anyone on the East coast I hope you are holding down the forts!!! Night all
I hope you guys are okay. My relatives live in Dayton, Ohio we haven't heard anything from them. We are pretty used to that weather down here in my neck of the woods - that would be about 30 minutes from the coast! We had a hurricane in August and we usually leave, but this was only a catagory 1 so we decided to stay - my kids throught I was nuts. Well around 1am when things were getting bad they were not too happy with me but we were just fine and honestly when they fell asleep they slept throught the worst part of it. The worst part for us is the loss of power - this time it was only three days, but the worst was after Hurricane Katrina we were something like 9 days without power - not fun. And I think for Gustav we were around 7 days without power. Forces everyone to spend time together - with no electronic devices!!
Well I hope you guys keep your power up there and your trampoline stays in one piece - after one hurricane my neighbor could not find her trampoline. A few hours later the neighbor came over to see if she wanted it back - yes it had been picked up and dropped over the fence - and it only broke one small piece of fence on its way over!! The power of mother nature!!
Oh my I just checked my e-mail and I had a reminder from Disney that my final payment is due soon!! Oh that is so exciting - that means it is getting closer!!!!
our yard....our neighbors shed & our trampoline
Just paid our cruise in full!! Now we just need to decide on excursions.
It's an awesome feeling isn't it!!
Hey all.... Just thought I would share some pictures from our Sept. WDW vacation & graphics I had made for t-shirts for the reveal of the vacation to the kids and some magnets.
Graphic for t-shirt reveal
Wow - I hope you guys are okay - that looks like something that should happen down here - not up there. Well I hope things get back to normal for you guys soon.
I bet that is a great feeling! I will be paying this week or next - waiting on some incentive money that we are recieving at work!!
I will be in your neck of the woods for the next two days - going to Lafayette for a teacher training. I will probably spend most of the time lost - I haven't spent much time down there! And I also hope I don't regret my decision to drive back and forth to Houma - someone told me it was about an hour and a half.
Ok here is the FE my mom and I made this weekend. It took us four hours, but was well worth it. This is the one for her room - we are going to make mine this weekend. The only thing we are going to do is add the names above the pockets either with iron on vinyl or have them monogrammed on.
Separate names with a comma.

World Cup Ratings: USA Loss to Germany Brings 10.8 Million Viewers to ESPN
America's performance in the tournament continues to reap big benefits for the cable network and Univision, as the team's third outing nets another huge audience.
Much to Ann Coulter's chagrin, World Cup ratings are still on fire.
Though it doesn't quite compare to Sunday's record-breaking game against Portugal, Team USA's third appearance at the 2014 FIFA World Cup saw viewership surge again during Thursday's early match with Germany — averaging 10.8 million viewers.
LIST The Hollywood Reporter Reveals Hollywood's 100 Favorite Films
The 1-0 loss came at quite an early hour for American audiences — with the game starting at 12 p.m. ET/ 9 a.m. PT — one reason why it didn't equal the audience of the previous game. An ideal Sunday evening kickoff time brought 18.2 million viewers to the cable network for USA-Portugal, making it the most watched soccer game in U.S. television history.
Thursday's game also scored an overnight rating of a 6.7, making it the third-highest-rated men's World Cup game on record. And Team USA's not-altogether-expected endurance in the tournament is only good news for ratings moving forward.
PHOTOS Hollywood's Biggest Soccer Fans
The game was a boon to streaming viewership as well, with many fans tuning in from work. The WatchESPN app peaked with 1.7 million viewers, a platform record, while Univision's stream reached 750,000.
ESPN will next telecast America's Round of 16 match against Belgium. The Tuesday, July 1, game kicks off at 4 p.m. ET / 1 p.m. PT, a much more advantageous start time, ratingswise.

Rockygrass Revival 2014
The folks that own and operate Planet Bluegrass needed a lot of love and support from the community after last September's floods totally devastated the ranch and the town of Lyons. Ten months later, the property is ready for the 42nd Rockygrass Festival. Nothing short of a miracle.

I applied online. The process took 3 weeks – interviewed at Orlando Utilities Commission in September 2013.Interview Details
Applied online....then email sent for skills assessment test and select schedule.....if pass assessment then you select date and time per what they provide.....when coming to the interview they request you bring other than basic "your diploma,GED,Degree if any, plus last pay-stub from previous employer"....I think that was too personal on wanting to see my last previous employer pay-stub for salary verification..........interviewed with two managers....basic behavioral/situation questions.....then was told date candidates would hear back which I am now a whole week pass the date stated date..... so by now I figured not hired for position.
P.S. when you go for interview they hand you their company benefits packet upfront from HR, was nice seeing what they offered upfront. Also, they make you sign papers to do background on school info...use to employment and criminal never schools....Hope this helped another

My recent experience of playing Bamboo on the Storyjacker site was my first involvement with any kind of digital writing game.

Much like Samsung and Sony, touring the Toshiba booth turned up plenty of devices but not too many laptops – though I'd say out of the big consumer electronics companies, Toshiba had more laptops/hybrids than anyone else. (I was hoping to go hands on with their Chromebook 2 and it was nowhere to be seen.) There were three major products on display that I want to quickly discuss: the Encore 2 Write tablet, the Portege Z20t hybrid Ultrabook/tablet (or WT20 if you just want the tablet portion), and TransferJet. Starting with Encore 2 Write, Toshiba has built two Windows 8 tablets with some of their own software that actually provides some interesting use cases. As the name implies, the Encore 2 Write tablets include a...

Spring order has arrived
As usually, really pleased with my Conifer Kingdom order...really nice plants. The Blue Cloak has sort of a gnarly bend in it that isn't ideal, but I will just train it back and probably won't even notice it when it's a larger tree..
From Left to Right:
- Picea pungens 'Kosters Prostrate'
- Pinus contorta var. latifolia 'Chief Joseph'
- Abies concolor 'Blue Cloak'
- Picea omorika 'Aurea' (Stunning free gift)
I hammered drilled about 4 ft of granite rock ledge and lightly amended the entire planting area to ensure that my 'Chief Joseph' has the best chance of survival as possible. Did several tests and the drainage looks really good, now I just gotta go easy on the watering.
Also, the image doesn't do it justice, but Blue Cloak is most consistently blue conifer I have seen in person. The needles are just solid blue, not even a hint of green.
i dont really see whats training BC needs ..
when its 10 feet tall ... and 3 inches thick.. do you really think that whats apparent today.. will be so then???
and.. thats a shipping stake ... remove it.. then decide if you need a real stake ... one more properly sized to its intended use ... if any ...
man.. i love free gifts ...

USB 3.1 Type C demonstrated
810 MB/s speeds and up - and it flips
It feels frustrating that Apple comes out with so many great technologies and one of the last ones is the Lightning connector. You would expect that this technology would be fast, but Apple is using USB 2.0 speeds. However, it uses a reversible connector that can be plugged in from either side.
AMD has Kaveri refresh for desktops
DeKaveri we heard
We have learned yet another thing about AMD in 2015. The publicly discussed the Carrizo APU that is coming to All-in-Ones and notebooks in the second half of 2015, but many punters have been wondering what is happening on the desktop front.

20nm GPUs not happening

2015 is all about 4K and VR

Nvidia Tegra X1 benchmarked, close to 60K in Antutu

We had a chance to spend some time with a few Tegra X1 developer boards and see a number of demos by Nvidia and see what is going to come in the next few months.
CES 2015 is all about 4K and 8K TVs
We don't have 4K content, but let's show off 8K anyway
2015 is shaping up to be a big year for 4K adoption and we expect a lot of enthusiasts and consumers will end up buying their first 4K monitors, TVs and other devices over the next twelve months.
Nvidia announces Tegra X1
Erista is the Tegra X1
Nvidia is starting the year aggressively. It just introduced a chip called Tegra X1 and this is what we used to know as Errista. The X probably comes from the fact that Erista is the son of Logan and guess what Logan in the X man. It is a 20nm chip, Nvidia's first.

Bemidji man wins Great American Think-Off on side of poetry
For Marsh Muirhead, poetry certainly matters.
It was his arsenal of thought-provoking arguments, compiled mentally since his childhood, which led to the Bemidji man's victory at the 19th annual Great American Think-Off on June 11.
In front of a crowd at the New York Mills School auditorium, Muirhead debated in favor of poetry's merit in a competition judged by those present at the NY Mills Regional Cultural Center event.

In memoriam Hal Schultz »
With deep regret, United Church Funds announces the death of dedicated board member Hal Schultz on Saturday, March 7 in Laguna Hills, CA. A CPA and ordained UCC clergy, Hal brought a unique set of skills to his service on the board and as chair of the Audit Committee.

Qute: A Sleek, No-Frills Text Editor
Productivity Sauce
Unlike other distraction-free text editors, Qute offers a writing environment that is both sleek and easy on your eyes. The editor features several rather attractive themes and a selection of high-quality fonts.
But the pleasant appearance is not the only thing that sets Qute apart from other distraction-free editors. Qute supports Markdown markup for formatting text, and it does so in a somewhat novel way. When you create a new paragraph or click on an existing one, the editor displays it in the editing mode, so you can format the text using Markdown markup. When you are done editing the paragraph, double-click on it to switch the paragraph to the display mode, so you can view the resulting formatting. Alternatively, you can enable a so-called split view which displays raw text with markdown markup and resulting formatting side-by-side. Qute allows you to output the currently opened text file to the HTML or PDF formats, but to do that, you need to install the Pandoc software. In addition to that, you can copy the text file to the clipboard as a plain text or HTML file. All in all, Qute is a rather likable distraction-free editor, but it lacks two essential features: word count and spell checking. If you can live without them, you should give Qute a try.comments powered by Disqus

The ubiquitous but highly inefficient 60-watt light bulb badly needs a makeover. And it could be worth millions in government prize money – and more in government contracts – to the first company that figures out how to do it.
Right now, that company could be Philips, the Dutch electronics giant. The company announced that it had submitted the first entry for the L Prize, an Energy Department contest that will award up to $10 million to the first person or group to create a new energy-sipping version of the most popular type of light bulb used in America.
The $10 million is almost beside the point. More important, the contest winner will receive consideration for potentially lucrative federal purchasing agreements, not to mention a head start at cracking a vast consumer marketplace.
The L Prize has garnered significant attention in the lighting industry because 60-watt incandescent lamps represent 50 percent of all the lighting in the United States, with 425 million sold each year. The Energy Department says that if all those lamps were LED equivalents, enough power would be saved to light 17.4 million American households and cut carbon emissions by 5.6 million metric tons annually.
For decades, incandescent light bulbs continued to bear a strong resemblance to Thomas Edison's creations, but new energy standards that go into effect in 2012 – and would effectively outlaw today's incandescent bulb – have brought about a period of fertile innovation in the lighting industry.
The criteria of the contest specifies a bulb that reproduces the same amount and color of light made by a 60-watt incandescent bulb, but uses only 10 watts of power. The bulb must also last for more than 25,000 hours – about 25 times longer than a standard light bulb. In a nod to economic concerns, at least 75 percent of the bulb must be made or assembled in the United States.

|Uncovering the Secrets of Pioneering Doctors' Gardens
January 12, 2011, University of Bristol Press Release (UK) by Staff
Two pioneering eighteenth-century doctors and the unusual uses to which they put their gardens are the focus of a new study by a Bristol University historian.
Funded by a grant from the Wellcome Trust, Dr Clare Hickman of the Department of Archaeology and Anthropology will investigate how surgeon John Hunter (1728-93) and vaccination pioneer Edward Jenner (1749-1823) used their gardens to further their outstanding medical activities.
|Amazon Digs Indicate Advanced Indian Civilizations
January 12, 2011, NPR by Juan Forero
There have been a lot of things said about the Amazon: That it was a vast virgin jungle, that its only inhabitants were hunter-gatherers and that the rain forest was too hostile to have ever supported big civilizations. But increasingly, archaeologists say they are discovering the Amazon was home to large, even advanced civilizations before the Europeans arrived.
...The new thinking has given much more credence to the reports the Spanish explorers penned in the early 1500s. They had written about finding cities gleaming white. But because there were no majestic stone ruins - and later generations of explorers encountered primitive bands of hunters - science considered that Amazonia had pretty much always been the way it is today. Then came Anna Roosevelt and her excavations in the late 1980s at Marajo Island at the mouth of the Amazon.
|Boundary Wall from 1600s Found at Edinburgh Castle

CFA Archaeology will now look at the surrounding area to gain a clearer understanding of what it was part of.
A trench dug for one of more than 100 concrete pad foundations for the new stands revealed the remains of a wall around 1m (3.3ft) wide.
|Cache from Shipwreck Docking at N.C. Museum of History
January 10, 2011, The Apex Herald NC) by Staff
A case exhibit of small artifacts from the wreck of what is believed to be Queen Anne's Revenge (QAR), Blackbeard's flagship, will be on display at the N.C. Museum of History in Raleigh from Jan. 7 through Jan. 30. The artifacts are fresh catch from the fall expedition at the shipwreck site near Beaufort.
The QAR (www.qaronline.org) ran aground in Beaufort Inlet in 1718, and the N.C. Department of Cultural Resources (www.ncculture.com) has led research at the site since 1997. The exhibit originated at the N.C. Maritime Museum in Beaufort, the official repository for the shipwreck artifacts, within the Division of State History Museums.
|1800s-Era Skeletons Discovered as Crews Build L.A. Heritage Center
January 10, 2011, The Los Angeles Times by Carla Hall
It's not unusual in Los Angeles for construction crews to find buried remains, but it is surprising to find a cemetery.
Under a half-acre lot of dirt and mud being transformed into a garden and public space for a cultural center celebrating the Mexican American heritage of Los Angeles, construction workers and scientists have found bodies buried in the first cemetery of Los Angeles — bodies believed to have been removed and reinterred elsewhere in the 1800s.
|Everyone Digs in as Archaeologists Uncover a Wealth of History
January 09, 2011, The Age (AU) by Ruth Williams
WHEN an old sewerage pipe near the centre of Ballarat needed replacing last year, archaeologists were called in for what was expected to be a routine dig of the surrounds.
But what they uncovered surprised and delighted heritage experts - a trove of more than a thousand gold rush artefacts, many once belonging to members of Ballarat's mid-19th century Chinese community. As well as European pottery and bottles, they found medicine vials stamped with Chinese characters, intact fig jars, coins, tokens and imported Chinese porcelain.
|Mona Lisa Landscape Location Mystery 'Solved'
January 09, 2011, The Telegraph (UK) by Nick Squires
A hidden clue in Leonardo da Vinci's Mona Lisa identifies the exact location of the landscape which provides the background to the world's best known painting, an Italian art historian claims.
Carla Glori believes that a three-arched bridge which appears over the left shoulder of the woman with the enigmatic smile is a reference to Bobbio, a village which lies in rugged hill country south of Piacenza, in northern Italy.
|Divers Claim to have Discovered USS Revenge
January 07, 2011, The Telegraph (UK) by Staff
The ship was commanded by US Navy hero Oliver Hazard Perry, known for defeating the British in the 1813 Battle of Lake Erie and Ontario in the War of 1812, as well as the line: "I have met the enemy and they are ours."
His battle flag bore the phrase "Don't give up the ship," and to this day is a symbol of the Navy.
|Spanish Archives Yields New Insights into History of Virgin Islands National Park
January 07, 2011, National Parks Traveler by Jim Burnett
...Thanks to funds provided by the Friends of Virgin Islands National Park, Park Historian Milagro Flores traveled to Spain last summer to conduct research and compile documentation from the Spanish archives relating to the parks history and cultural resources. Flores served as the principal investigator for the project, assisted by Doris M. Diaz, an intern (history graduate student) from the Friends of VINP intern program.
Why the Spanish archives? Information from the park notes, "After the discovery of the New World by the Europeans in 1492, Spain maintained control over the new possessions until a few decades later when the English and French began to take control of Spain's Caribbean colonies, including the Danish settlement on the islands of St. John and St. Thomas during 17th century."
|Divers Say They Have Found Wreck of Oliver Hazard Perrys Ship off Westerly
January 07, 2011, The Providence Journal (RI) by Tom Mooney
A team of Connecticut scuba divers say they've discovered off the Westerly coast the wreck of a ship once commanded by Rhode Island naval war hero Oliver Hazard Perry, whose actions helped the United States defeat the British during the War of 1812.
It was after the naval victory at Lake Erie in September 1813 — during which Perry had one ship founder beneath him before transferring to another and continuing the battle — that his message to his commanders would become immortalized: "We have met the enemy and they are ours ..."
|DNA Information from 18th Century Giant may Help Sufferers in the Future
January 07, 2011, Past Horizons by Staff
An international research team, spearheaded by scientists from the London School of Medicine and Dentistry, has identified the genetic mutation responsible for a disease known as "gigantism" or acromegaly.
Leading international paleogenetics experts Professor Dr Joachim Burger and Martina Unterländer of the Institute of Anthropology at Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz, Germany subsequently extracted and analyzed the DNA from the skeleton of an 18th-century acromegaly patient preserved in the Hunterian Museum in London. The research team discovered exactly the same mutation as the one found in living patients. Further analyses of other DNA segments located in the vicinity of this gene led to the conclusion that the Hunterian Museum's so-called "Irish Giant" had inherited the mutation from a common ancestor that he shared with a number of living Irish families who are suffering from this hereditary disorder today. The subsequent complex biostatistical calculations showed that the original mutation developed around 1,500 years ago and has been passed on from generation to generation ever since. It is estimated that around 200 to 300 people still carry the mutation today.
|Constable's Sketch of Wordsworth Uncovered

|Bhutan Offers Rare Glimpse Inside Historic Temples

|Professor Discovers Hidden Literary References in the Mona Lisa

Queen's University Classics professor emeritus Ross Kilpatrick believes the Leonardo da Vinci masterpiece, the Mona Lisa, incorporates images inspired by the Roman poet Horace and Florentine poet Petrarch. The technique of taking a passage from literature and incorporating it into a work of art is known as 'invention' and was used by many Renaissance artists.
|"Gulliver's Travels" Tops UK Box Office
January 05, 2011, Reuters by Staff
The 3D update of Jonathan Swift's 18th century satire on human nature "Gulliver's Travels" gave the British box office a storming start to the year, despite having failed to make much of an impact in North America.
The story of travel writer Lemuel Gulliver taking an assignment in Bermuda but ending up among the little people of Lilliput made a high 7.02 million pounds ($10.9 million) on its opening weekend, according to Screen International on Wednesday.
|Remnants of Boozy Village Found Beneath Downtown San Francisco
January 05, 2011, The San Francisco Examiner (CA) by Kamala Kelkar
y the time it boasts all its glory, the "Grand Central of the West" will actually sit on the site of an ancient village archeologists recently dusted off one relic at a time on their hands and knees.
They found dozens of vestiges — dolls, a piece of a tent, tableware and "many, many liquor bottles" — that tell stories dating as far back as 1848 under a roughly 100-square-foot portion of a parking lot near First and Minna streets by the future Transbay Transit Center. Underneath the asphalt, archeologists rummaged through what used to be shopkeepers' and entrepreneurs' homes that once sat between two enormous sand dunes.
|New Revelations about Slaves and Slave Trade
January 05, 2011, CNN by David Eltis and David Richardson
Most students of American history understand that a dramatic re-peopling of North and South America began in the years after Christopher Columbus first landed in the New World. But they may not realize that it was Africa, not Europe, that formed the wellspring of this repopulation process.
In the 3¼ centuries between 1492 and about 1820, four enslaved Africans left the Old World for every European. During those years, Africans comprised the largest forced oceanic migration in the history of the world. Who were they? Who organized the slaving voyages? Which parts of Africa did they come from? How did they reach the Americas? And where exactly did they go?
|All the President's Men
January 04, 2011, The Wall Street Journal by Julia M. Klein
With temperatures in the mid-20s, the mid- December dedication of the President's House was an occasion for celebration (that the site, after eight years of controversy and delays, was finished), thoughtful rumination (about the entanglement of liberty and slavery in Federalist America) and incipient frostbite.
Abutting the Liberty Bell Center in the heart of Independence National Historical Park, the $11.9 million project combines architecture and archaeology, memorial and exhibition, in an open-air setting. The exhibition, "The President's House: Freedom and Slavery in the Making of a New Nation," touches on the uses and abuses of federal power, the spread of slavery, Philadelphia's 18th- century free-black community—and, most tellingly, the occupants of the house itself.
|Soapman: The Mummy Made of Soap
January 04, 2011, Discovery News by Staff
This is no ordinary mummy. It did not originate from ancient Egypt or the Inca. It is not thousands of years old, nor is it wrapped in bandages. (In fact, if you look closely, you'll see this person died wearing knee-high stockings.)
This mummy is from North America. When he was alive, this person live in 18th-century Philadelphia. During a construction project in Philadelphia in 1875, the body was unearthed by accident.
But that's not what makes this mummy special.
|Comparing the Modern Tea Party to the Original
January 03, 2011, History News Network by Barbara Smith
In light of the recent anniversary of the original Tea Party, shouldn't we consult history to clarify what the Boston brouhaha of 1773 was really about? Here are some things we would do well to remember today:
&bul; There was little that was "conservative" about the event. A mob seized and destroyed private property. Conservative interests at the time deplored it, and the respectable descendants of the Revolutionary generation did their best to forget it when they wrote up their official accounts of the Revolution.
|Three Hampton Roads History Sites to be Marked
January 03, 2011, The Virginian-Pilot by Rashod Ollison
Just about every corner of Virginia has historic significance - whether it's a site of a famous battle or the former residence of a groundbreaking musician.
So it shouldn't come as a surprise that 12 new state historic highway markers have been approved, including ones in Norfolk and Virginia Beach, by the Virginia Department of Historic Resources.
...The other markers cover a spectrum of Virginia history. They include an old Indian town called Opiscopank in Middlesex County, which was noted on a 1608 map by Capt. John Smith; the Nelson County boyhood home of the Rev. Dr. W.A.R Goodwin, "father of colonial Williamsburg"; and the Louisa County childhood home of Pulitzer Prize-winning novelist Ellen Glasgow.
|The Largest Slave Revolt in U.S. History is Commemorated
January 03, 2011, The Times-Picayune (LA) by Littice Bacon-Blood
More than a century before the first modern-day civil rights march, there was Charles Deslondes and his make-do army of more than 200 enslaved men battling with hoes, axes and cane knives for that most basic human right: freedom.
They spoke different languages, came from various parts of the United States, Africa and Haiti, and lived miles apart on plantations along the German Coast of Louisiana. Yet after years of planning at clandestine meetings under the constant threat of immediate death, they staged a revolt on Jan. 8, 1811, that historians say is the largest uprising of enslaved people in this country.
|Winchester's Civil War Defences Discovered
January 03, 2011, Past Horizons by Staff
In the course of excavations prior to a town development in south east England, archaeologists have uncovered a wealth of features relating to Winchesters past.
In 1642 the English Civil War between King and Parliament began its bloody course. During this period, Winchester changed loyalties several times but initially supported King Charles I with Royalist soldiers occupying the town. Later that year Parliamentarian soldiers attacked and quickly captured Winchester. The town council paid them 1,000 pounds in return for an agreement that they would not loot the town, but many did so anyway. Soon however, they moved on leaving Winchester undefended.
|Jamestown Unearths 400-Year-Old Pipes for Patrons
December 31, 2010, The Associated Press by Michael Felberbaum
Archeologists at Jamestown have unearthed a trove of tobacco pipes personalized for a who's who of early 17th century colonial and British elites, underscoring the importance of tobacco to North America's first permanent English settlement.
The white clay pipes — actually, castoffs likely rejected during manufacturing — were crafted between 1608 and 1610 and bear the names of English politicians, social leaders, explorers, officers of the Virginia Company that financed the settlement and governors of the Virginia colony. Archeologists also found equipment used to make the pipes.

Sotheby's has scrapped its February sale of a controversial £4.5m mask believed to have been looted by British forces from 19th-century West Africa.
A number of private individuals contacted the auction house last week to complain about the sale of the 16th-century ivory mask, once thought to have belonged to an ancient Nigerian king. Local government officials in Nigeria have publicly condemned the sale and criticised the object's current owners, the descendants of a former British government official involved in an 1897 British invasion of Benin, a city-state in what is now Nigeria.

Smooth-textured, round, and with no hard edges, this tasty effort is designed for immediate gratification. This is one worth buying by the case." (08/08)

What is the most efficient way of sorting only a part of ArrayList? Say all elements from index 0 to 3 in an Arraylist which contains 10 elements.
Is there a library function available in Java?
Apart from
Collections.sort(list) which sorts the entire List!
Writing a highly optimised custom sort function will take some work.
