Sidney Hodgson, layman, was one of the London Martyrs of 1591. There is very little known about him, except that he was arrested with some priests and sentenced to death. On October 18, 1591 a royal proclamation led to the stricter enforcement of the laws against Catholics in England. Consequently, he and six others were martyred on December 10, 1591. They were hanged, drawn and quartered. Sidney was beatified in 1929.

Contest Update: NIC Contest
And the winners are...
In the May/June 2001 issue of Embedded Linux Journal, we announced our second contest, ``Using the NIC as an Embedded System'' (see the Contest Rules and Overview on page 8 of that issue for specific details). We have chosen the 20 finalists based on their proposals and are shipping their computers. Their final entries are due on February 4, 2002 in the form of a web site, and the grand prize winner will receive an all-expense paid trip to Costa Rica. Two runners up will each receive a Lego Mindstorms package, consisting of the Lego Mindstorms Robotics Invention System, Mindstorms Vision Command, The Unofficial Guide to Lego Mindstorms Robots and the Lego Mindstorms Ultimate Accessory Set.
Well, here they are, the winners for the NIC contest. First, let me say that we had a lot of really good entries. Knowing that we only had 20 systems available, we tried to distribute the winning ideas to various industry areas. Thus, you will see home systems, industrial testing systems, retail systems, kiosks and at least one system just for fun.
Additionally, some of the ideas included the construction of additional custom hardware. This shows, as I expected, that we aren't just a bunch of programmers. Like most embedded engineers, we see the need to combine hardware and software design to create the right product.
Thanks to everyone for entering; it was great reading all the ideas. It will continue to be interesting to see how the 20 selected proposals develop into systems.
Because of space limitations, this list of finalists lacks a lot of details. Check out the ELJ web site for specifics.

PRINTING PRESS: When you think "champion of newspapers," WPP Chief Executive Martin Sorrell doesn't typically come to mind. The ad executive has, in the past, said marketers spend too much on print media when you take into account consumers' shift toward digital. But as CMO Today reports, citing the Times of London, Mr. Sorrell said at a Broadcasting Press Guild breakfast this week that newspapers and magazines may be "more effective than people give them credit [for]." He cited research saying that traditional media can be more engaging than online and mobile. Don't expect Mr. Sorrell's comments to dramatically change WPP's strategy, which is heading in the digital direction. The company, which took in a third of its revenue from digital channels last year, is hoping to boost that amount to more like 40% to 45% over the next five years.
YOUNG MONEY: Vice Media hasn't been quiet about its ambition to become a mainstream television outlet, even as, paradoxically, mainstream television outlets are trying to become a little more like Vice. Now the unconventional media company is taking a major step forward, signing a multi-year programming deal with HBO, WSJ reports. HBO is calling the agreement, which extends Vice's existing HBO show for four years and creates a daily Vice newscast, its "most expensive" ever. With the deal, HBO is likely hoping that Vice's content and cachet will help spur young people to sign on for its forthcoming streaming service, the $15.99-a-month HBO Now (Vice will have its own branded channel there). We'll see. Vice's current HBO show isn't exactly a ratings hit, and the extent to which this deal will be mutually beneficial remains to be seen.

APRIL SHOWERS, MAY SOURS: TV networks and marketers are preparing for the annual "upfronts," booze-filled and star-studded presentations of the upcoming season's shows that lead into negotiations for guaranteed ad contracts. Like last year, it looks as though the upfront market will be fairly lackluster, CMO Today reports. Research and ad-buying firm Magna Global predicts the overall market could fall 7% (10% for broadcasters, 5% for cable). And it's becoming increasingly clear that media executives can't blame poor results on a bleak economy like they have in the past. Industry executives say there are real market changes afoot, such as streaming services chipping away at TV ratings and marketers shifting TV ad budgets into digital options like Web video. That said, the two sides are always looking to set expectations ahead of the upfronts, partly as a negotiating tactic. Read More »
The idea for a new burger topped with sliced jalapenos, jalapeno poppers, spicy habanero bacon sauce and pepperjack cheese was dreamed up not in the test kitchens of Carl's Jr. and Hardee's but by the fast-food chains' advertising agency.

In response, the agency came up with an idea for a new menu item that would feed customers' penchant for spicy food — the "El Diablo." Read More »

Buying a new Snow Thrower. Confusion.
I am about to pull the trigger on a new snow blower. As there are so many available, it has become a little difficult determining the best one to buy. My budget is approx. $1,300. Consumer Reports ranks the Troy Bilt Storm 3090 XP as their top pick (listed at approx $1,100). Husqvarna (who subsequently didn't crack the Cunsumer Reports top five) has two that interest me. The 1830HV at $1,250 and the 14527E at $1,500. I here positive things about Ariens too. It seems that there isn't a front runner. My application is a flat, asphalt driveway. 170 feet long by 15 feet wide with a 24x30 parking area. I would appreciate any feedback and advice from experienced snow thrower owners. Thank You
For the size area you're talking about all three machines should do fine. I used to live in RI (Warwick Neck) back in the 70's and there wasn't a huge amount of small engine repair shops then. The question is what is available for Service and Parts LOCALLY? I used to hate driving up to Boston for stuff.
Good luck,
We have an Ariens 624 that would do your driveway in about two hours. But then, it only cost 800 dollars back in 2007. So I would guess that you want a larger snowblower for your application. The Ariens is easy to start, and very reliable, up to this point.
With that length driveway consider getting one with a wide scoop - at least 30" - wider if they make them. Also, another desireable feature is a discharge chute that also can be rotated down and away from the vertical position. With this added feature you can direct the snow better, and precludes for the most part, getting a face full of snow when blowing during windy conditions.
I have a 300 feet drive way which is about 12 feet wide and about the same amount of car park space as you. For anything up to maybe 2-3 inches of light fluffy snow it will take me 20 to 30 mins to blow. My driveway is sloped I have a Honda HS1132-TAS tracked snow blower.
If the snow is heavy, like 8 inches to 12 inches then the time it takes can ramp up to 60 to 90 mins depending on the type of snow.
I like my Honda very much, the downside is though it is sort of expensive. I am now on my third season with it and it has been reliable.
I think for the amount of drive way you have, a 30-inch size blower is about right. I would not go for anythong smaller. If you have a truck, you may even consider a blade or something like that if you have the storage space.
Best, Mike.
Can anyone tell me what the actual Horsepower rating is for this model snow blower? 2011 Troy-Bilt 277cc 28 inch Two-Stage Gas Snow Blower Model 31AH64Q4711
The manufacturer and retailer won't say! I've searched everywhere online and I just can't seem to find an answer?
Any help out there?

A few more things to consider:
Make sure the handles are the right height so as not to cause fatigue. I had one the handles were too low and wound up giving it to my daughter.
Make sure the handle controls are not too stiff = hand fatigue. Can the tension be adjusted?
An added benefit is if the blower does not leave a pile of snow in front of the blower when stopped. My current Craftsman does whereas my old 1970's vintage Yardman did not.

"ST status will be necessary for their empowerment"
In an attempt at winning over the fishermen community, thought to form the traditional vote bank of the AIADMK, the DMK's manifesto promises to include traditional fishermen in the list of Scheduled Tribes (ST).
Fishermen in the State are considered AIADMK supporters as its founder M. G. Ramachandran had the image of being 'meenava nanban (friend of the fishermen).
Though it is a long pending demand of the community, described as 'sea tribes' since ancient times, the DMK's move has evoked diverse views. There are also questions about the motive behind the move and its implementation.
The fishermen community includes sub-sects like Paravar, Mukkuvar, Pattinavar, Sembadavar and Chavalakarar. "As an ancient community, fishermen in the State need the status to climb the social ladder and for economic empowerment," said Sahitya Akademi award winner Joe D' Cruz, whose two novels – Aazhi Soozh Ulagu and Korkai – captured the history of fishermen of Gulf of Mannar.
Mr. Cruz, a native of Uvari, a fishermen settlement, rejected the argument that fishermen, especially those who had converted to Christianity and had achieved a social status would not relish the idea of finding a place among Scheduled Tribes.
"Where comes the question of compromising on social status when a majority of them continue to eke out a livelihood as fishermen? Education and employment opportunities will come along with the ST status, and fishermen, both along the seashore and inland, will benefit from it," he said.
Kabadi B. Maran, Tamil Nadu Fishermen Development Association president, said though efforts were made to include them in the ST list, the community could not make it.
"It is an age-old profession and the people involved in it languish in backwardness. It needed a tsunami to tell the world about their living conditions.
Since a section of the community in the southern district has witnessed upward mobilisation by means of conversion and education, it cannot hold true for the entire community," he said.
But Tamil Nadu Tribal Association president P. Shanmugam said the demand for including fishermen in the ST list was unacceptable for more reasons than one. "Of course, they lead a life completely different from other communities. But they do not have a unique culture and language to warrant a ST status. The DMK's promise is nothing but political," Mr. Shanmugam said. A former civil servant from the community said the promise looks attractive in the manifesto, but its implementation is difficult. "Identifying fishermen is a difficult task as fishing is no longer a profession confined to a particular community," he said.

Over the course of the Summer 2014 and Fall 2014 semesters, the QEP Topic Selection Committee drafted "Bear Our Banners Far & Wide: Communicating in a Global Society." This document will be reviewed at Texas Tech's upcoming SACSCOC on-site visit on February 24 - 26, 2015.
Beginning in 2013, members of the Texas Tech University community collaboratively developed a set of possible topics for its 2015-2020 QEP. The QEP Topic Selection Committee, which broadly represents many campus constituency groups, selected "Communicating in a Global Society" as the primary theme for Texas Tech's QEP. The Topic Selection Committee's recommendations formed the basis for Bear Our Banners Far & Wide: Communicating in a Global Society.

Before there were dollars and cents— in fact before there was any kind of currency — there was barter. You give me this and I'll give you that. From other professional service providers (dentists, electricians, yoga teachers) to weekend getaways, nail techs are still using this practice today.

Ferris loses fitness battle
ESPN Staff
May 26, 2012
Stephen Ferris will miss Ireland tour of New Zealand © Getty Images
Ireland flanker Stephen Ferris has been ruled out of their forthcoming tour to New Zealand with a calf injury.
The 26-year-old has been replaced in the tour squad by Leinster blindside Kevin McLaughlin.
Ferris was injured as Ulster fell 42-14 to Leinster in the Heineken Cup final on May 19.
Ireland will face the world champions in a three-Test series, beginning in Auckland on June 9.
"Kevin McLaughlin narrowly missed out on selection for the original 29-man squad named earlier this week, but steps up into the touring party in place of Stephen Ferris, who has been ruled out due to a calf injury sustained in the Heineken Cup final," a statement read.
Ireland will finalise their touring party following Tuesday's clash with the Barbarians in Gloucester.

'Makeup Transformation' Photos Feature Fans Emulating Drake, Rihanna, Andre 3000 & More
With some lipstick, eyeliner, concealer and props, people magically become their favorite rapper or R&B singer in hilarious four-panel photos.
With some lipstick, eyeliner, concealer and props, people magically become their favorite rapper or R&B singer in hilarious four-panel photos.
Rihanna has landed on the cover of so many magazines this year alone that we've almost lost count. But W Magazine's upcoming September cover shows RiRi in a different light -- you'll easily forget about the rest.
Congrats to Omarion and Apryl Jones! The couple welcomed their first child together -- a baby boy named Megaa Omari Grandberry.
Beyonce thanked her fans after finishing her successful On the Run tour with her hubby Jay Z.
It looks like Chris Brown will finally drop his long-delayed album 'X' in September.
With five albums under her belt, soulful R&B singer Keyshia Cole is currently touring in promotion of her forthcoming effort 'Point of No Return.' She gave eager New York fans quite a show Tuesday night (July 29) at Irving Plaza, performing tracks both new and old.
Tank graces the cover of Singersroom's inaugural digital issue.
Keyshia Cole is the quintessential example of a hot mama. She shows it off best on her Instagram page, where she shares personal snapshots from her life -- a little revealing here and a lot of sexy there.
Rihanna took her love of soccer (and the German team) from Twitter to Rio when she cheered for Germany at the World Cup final match yesterday (July 13).
It looks like Chris Brown and Drake have ended their beef and could possibly be working on some new material together.

Need Help identifying small woodland plant

Hmm.. Korean violet? Ginger of some kind?
Here is a link that might be useful: jsward's plant
janetr(Ottawa USDA 4a)
Looks like a brunnera to me. Here's a picture of my Jack Frost. Jsward's isn't Jack Frost, but still, the resemblances are very strong.
jsward(z7 TN)
I agree it resembles Jack Frost, I have never seen these in my woodland in 15 the years I have been here. This year there are dozens of them all in one area and none are larger than 1" to 1 1/2" I haven't seen them anywhere else. The area is full of Wild Ginger, Solomon Seal, and Devil's Walking Stick and of course Poison Ivy. The others have always been there.

Comments about Border Concepts Giant Obelisk:
much better/sturdier than I expected; I was a little worried. And the height is perfect for my honeysuckle. I think one or two more are in my future. I hope it stands up to the winter winds and am hoping the honeysuckle doesn't break the poles like it did some others I tried. Very easy to put together; only needed hubby to tighten the screws!

Comments about Border Concepts Giant Obelisk:
The obelisk that we purchased was of good construction. It is very attactive in our garden. A little pricey though.
- Was this a gift?:

Comments about Border Concepts Giant Obelisk:
This does need to be sunk into the ground to make it sturdy enough for plants and vines.
Best Uses
- Blooming Vine
Comments about Border Concepts Giant Obelisk:
This arbor is easy to put together, just used my drill. It is a good weight and height for my vine to grow on. I got a large dowel and drove it into the ground after I marked my spots with the legs, removed the dowel, inserted the legs and tapped down the dirt. Took about an hour to assemble and put up.

Comments about Border Concepts Giant Obelisk:
The quality of the obelisk is less than what I expected. Although it is from the "wrought iron" collection, the only parts that are wrought iron are the finial and the 3 rings. The uprights are cheap aluminum. The legs also are open at the bottom and do not contain closed, pointed ends that you can sink into the ground.

Phil Miller covered three seasons of Twins baseball, but that was at a different ballpark for a different newspaper. Now Miller returns to the baseball beat after joining the Star Tribune as the Gopher football writer in 2010, and he won't miss the dingy dome for a minute. In addition to the Twins and Gophers, Miller covered the Utah Jazz and the NBA for six years at The Salt Lake Tribune.
CLEVELAND -- The weather has greatly improved here today, with bright sunshine and temperatures in the mid-40s, headed above 50. That's quite a change, after two days of players huddled around heaters for the first two games. It's so nice, the Indians plan to take batting practice, something most teams normally skip on Sunday. Not sure if the Twins plan to do the same.
The Twins fly home after today's game, and open their home season tomorrow at Target Field against the A's. But first, they'll try to finish off a split of the six-game road trip, which would be quite a feat after they lost the first two and trailed in the third.
They'll use a virtually identical lineup today to the one that earned Ron Gardenhire's 1,000th win yesterday, with only one substitution: Kurt Suzuki back behind the plate, instead of Josmil Pinto. Oswaldo Arcia remains out with a sore hand, though his trigger finger is OK; he was racking up a high score in one of those deer-hunting video games in the clubhouse.
Here are the lineups for today's series ender:

Why yes, we are thrilled...
Wouldn't you be excited about an addition to the neighbor's home on a permit they've had for 20 years? Silver lining is we haven't re-landscaped the backyard yet.
How would you work with this? Looking for something low maintenance, low water, legal. :)
who's fence is it? I would put some really really tall trellis' on your side and then put bouganvilla all over the place. Also some trees that don't need much water.
Olive trees are drought tolerant, and they can grow pretty thick. There are some next to a cross street we drive, and they cause traffic hazards. Very hard to see through or around them. I don't know about Italian Cypress for drought, but they make a tall hedge.
Sorry for your misfortune.
Fairly fast, drought tolerant - zone 9
Rhamnus alaternus- requires absolutely no water once established.
Pittosporum tenuifoium
Myrica californica
Nerium standard form would look nice
Callistemon 'Cane's Hybrid'
Otatea acuminata azectorum - need a bit more water than the above mentioned to look its best.
They have paid some annual fee to keep it active, and now are not held to current building codes. This in a county where our other neighbor had to do an archaeological study (in a subdivision that has been here for 50 yrs) before pushing out a wall. Go figure.
Thanks for the suggestions. A local nursery has a good sale for their retail customers every October, and I'd like to be ready!
Is there any "View" ordinances that you can not block?
Rather than going up, you might want to look for something that will give you an "Umbrella" coverage of the yard. Of course that totally changes what you can grow in the shade vs the sun.
Sorry about your thrilling new next door addition, good thing they did not add a deck/balcony so they can get a better view..... I have a similar issue with some wonderful neighbors who have a balcony that is just taller than the fence, only their oak tree covers the whole area and is protected by the city so I am limited to vines that can handle a lot of shade.

What is the function of primary and secondary fermentation. How long do i have to do primary and secondary fermentation. I did some mash and in two weeks fermentation was finished acording to the hydrometer reading. If fermentation is finished that soon why would i need to ferment in secondary for a long period of time, say for example 2 months, if there is no bubbling and no fermentation ocurring. Any suggestions on when to rack and for how long to ferment my wine are needed.
Thank you!

Planting new blueberry bushes-rookie here!
So I'm a gardening rookie (southern california) but I bought 2 blueberry plants both in 3 gallon pots. 1 sunshine and 1 oneal. They are fairly good sized with blueberries already on them. I've read that theylike acidic soil and that I should use peat moss. The nursery advised me to buy azalea soil so I bought that. So my question is do I mix 1/3 azalea 1/3 peat moss and native soil? And when you "amend" soil are you amending the whole area before you start planting or just the soil you put back in the hole? Also I've read that I should pinch the fruit and flowers off the first year...should I assume that this plant is older than a year since its in a 3 gallon and has blueberries already or should I just go ahead and pinch off? Thank you in advance for any help!
Hello nursejolly,
So these are going in the ground?What's the native soil like,the composition and pH?Does it drain well?
If it's high pH like a lot of California spots,it may be better to grow them in containers,something like they're already in,maybe just a little bigger,like five to ten gallon.That way there isn't as much of a battle to keep the pH favorable.
With container grown Blueberries,I never use native soil,just Pine or Fir bark mulch,peat moss and some Perlite if it's available.60-70% bark mulch and the rest peat.
I've never used Azalea soil.Is it like potting soil,kind of thin like dirt?If so and they're grown in pots,I'd probably not use it,as the mix needs to be fast draining and porous.
I'd also keep the fruit because they are of fairly good size.
I also grow them in the ground and use about the same components as above,minus the Perlite.I suppose the Azalea soil could be used in the ground situation.
It's also a good idea to check the pH of your irrigation water,as that can also affect pH. Brady
If you grow your bb's in pots, in a recommended soil mix, per Bradybb, in the post above, you will very likely have less of a problem with soil pH issues. It's OK to leave the flowers and blueberries on the shrub, it means that the shrub will grow more slowly during the next 12 months. However, it will not harm the health of the shrub to leave the fruit in place. If you decide to plant these shrubs in the ground, it will take periodic pH testing to be successful. That means learning how to do a soil pH test, and a water pH test(irrigation water). Blueberries will not thrive in alkaline soil, and alkaline irrigation water will raise soil pH, eventually. Your new shrubs will do better if you simply water them in at transplant, with no added fertilizer. It takes 90 days for the disturbed roots to become well established, and then fertilizer can be applied.
N....google "Dave Wilson Nursery". They have a great page on growing blueberries. I am growing in pots...and they are doing great. I thin the fruit somewhat.
Thanks for all the responses. Yes I plan to put them in the ground. I do plan to test the pH. I haven't opened the azalea mix bag but apparently it's acidic bc azaleas like acidic soil too. I bought these shrubs from Armstrong nursery and they have a lifetime guarantee!!! So if I butcher these (which I'm praying I don't!) they will replace them for free! Anyways thank you for all the good information. I have alot of space so I want to put them in the ground on the side of my house.
I have heard only good things about growing with worm castings. The real issue for you is 1-your native soil and 2-your irrigation water. To my knowledge, southern California has alkaline soil, so it would need to be amended to support blueberry shrubs. I'm not sure whether you have hard water or not. If you are on a municipal water supply, there might be an annual water quality report, published and posted online, that will tell you the pH and also the amount of calcium and magnesium present.
What Ive read about growing blues in the ground in SoCal is they actually flood the ground with sulfuric acid to acidify the soil then acidify there irrigation water as well. Sounds like a lot of monkey business to grow blues in the ground there?

Removing Purple Fountain grass seed heads?
breinhart(z7 Central VA)July 11, 2007
Our purple fountain grass got a head start this season and is in full "bloom". Should we be cutting off the seed heads that have already turned brown or just leave them? Will trimming cause the plant to send up more flowering spikes?
I agree with Donn, deadheading blooms rarely helps promote grasses to bloom more. Cutting back foliage, however, does promote tillering and new basal growth.
My advise though with those beautiful purple fountain grasses is to leave them on their own and let them bloom like crazy in the warm weather.

Hotel balmoral was lovely. I still cannot believe it is only 2 star. It should at least be a 3 star. Food was nice, staff were extremely nice and helpful. Lots of fun and games at the pool for both adults and children. The hotel doesn't provide a hair dryer and the wifi is only available in the lobby- other than that there is no fault. Rooms are cleaned everyday! I would high recommend this hotel for a quiet family holiday or relaxing break. Benalmadena is a beautiful location in costa del sol but if you are looking for a crazy fun filled holiday I would recommend neighbouring places.

Yemeni presidential election, 1999
|This article is part of a series on the
politics and government of
|Foreign relations
Direct Presidential elections were held in Yemen for the first time on 23 September 1999.[1] Candidates had to be approved by at least 10% of MPs; however, in practice this meant that only two parties, the ruling General People's Congress and the Yemeni Congregation for Reform had enough seats to nominate their candidates. In the end, the Yemeni Congregation for Reform backed the GPC's candidate, incumbent President Ali Abdullah Saleh rather than running a candidate of their own.
The only candidates that received approval from Parliament were Saleh, who won with 96.3% of the vote, and Najeeb Qahtan Al-Sha'abi, a member of Saleh's own party. Parliament failed to approve the main opposition candidate, Ali Saleh Obad of the Yemeni Socialist Party, and his party boycotted the election. Official turnout was 66% of 5.6 million registered voters, a figure contested by the opposition.[2]
Nominations for presidential candidates closed on 13 July 1999. In total, 31 candidates put their names forward, though three of them were disqualified immediately for failing to meet the legal requirements. The full list is as follows: [3]
- Ali Abdullah Saleh (General People's Congress, Islah, National Opposition Council)
- Ali Salih 'Ubad Muqbil (parties of the Supreme Co-ordination Council for the Opposition)
- Abd al-Quwi Ahmad Hamoud Shuwi'a (People's Democratic Party)
- Al-Habbani Muhammad abd al-Malik Nu'man al-'Abassi (Yemeni Popular Unity Party)
- Ali bin Ali Sabihi
- Muhammad Muhammad Hizam al-Yamani
- Amin Ahmad Thabit
- Abd al-Wahhab Muhammad Hassan al-Karidi
- Abdullah Salih Salih al-Bakhiti
- Muhammad Ahmad Sa'ad al-Dhufari
- Faisal Ali Ahmad Ghaaithan al-Tawil
- Salih Hassan Abdullah al-'Azani
- Abd al-Malik Yahya Ahmad Hanash
- Ahmad Ali Hussein Yahya al-'Amri
- Muhammad A'id Qa'id al-'Uthmali
- Ali Salih al-Houri
- Muhammad Ali Muhsin al-Sirri
- Salih Ahmad bin Ahmad Jubah
- Muhammad Hussein al-Jamuzi
- Ali Abdullah Salih Muhsin Suroub
- Abd al-Wahhab Qanaf Sha'if
- Mustafa Youssef Khalil
- Iskandar Ali al-Nathari
- Mustafa Ali Naji 'Aiyash
- Ahmad Muslih al-Barti
- Ma'adh Abdullah al-Shahani
- Ahmad Abduh al-Ramim
- Najeeb Qahtan Al-Sha'abi - (MP for the General People's Congress, running as an Independent)
The following were disqualified (reason):
- Amin Ahmad bin Ahmad Thabit (candidates must not be married to a foreigner and he had a Russian wife)
- Abdullah Salih Salih Muhsin Surub (minimum age is 40, he was 38)
- A candidate with a name too similar to President Saleh
The parliamentary vetting committee eliminated another four candidates, putting 24 of the 31 nominations to a parliamentary vote, in which a candidate required 31 votes to be able to run in the election. Another candidate, Khalid al-Zarraka, did not appear on the publicised list of nominations, but was included in the parliamentary vote. In the vote itself, 21 of the 25 (including al-Zarraka) did not receive any support. [3]
|Ali Abdullah Saleh
|Najeeb Qahtan Al-Sha'abi
|Khalid al-Zarraka
|Ali Salih 'Ubad Muqbil

Welcome to The Portland Museum Website
"the treasure on the Island"
Situated in the ancient hamlet of Wakeham and above the cove at Church Ope, Portland's Museum was founded in 1930 by Dr Marie Stopes in two early 17th century stone cottages. Inspired by one of these cottages, Wessex author, Thomas Hardy made it the home of Avice, the heroine in his novel "The Wellbeloved".
Today the Museum houses many of the artifacts associated with the history and culture of the Island and Royal Manor of Portland and tells the story of local industry, the Sea, the Prisons and the People.
The Museum will reopen on Saturday 28th March 2015 and will be open every day until Thursday 16th April when we will then close Fridays and Saturdays.
If you would be interested in becoming a volunteer at the Museum please contact Lisa at the Museum by phone or email, we would be thrilled to welcome anyone interested and you would be able to see what goes on behind the scenes during our closed season.

The 114th annual convention from Dec. 7-10, 2015, will mark the seventh time that Gaylord Opryland Resort & Convention Center will play host to the Baseball Winter Meetings. In addition to this year, Opryland was also the site of the annual convention in 1983, 1989, 1998, 2002 and 2007.
"Gaylord Opryland Resort & Convention Center is proving, again this week, to be a great place to host our annual convention and the thousands of people from the baseball community," said Pat O'Conner, president of Minor League Baseball.
"The ability to host almost all of our attendees, events and meetings under one roof makes it a very attractive and efficient location for the Baseball Winter Meetings."
Next year's Baseball Winter Meetings will take place from Dec. 9-12 at the Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin Resort in Orlando, Fla., which also hosted the event in 2010 and 2006. The annual convention will be headquartered at the Hilton San Diego Bayfront in 2014, from Dec. 8-11.
