I tend to agree with the 'no core below the waterline' idea too. I feel that any blistering that might occur is a bigger problem with the relatively thin-skinned cored hull.
Of possible interest to you, td, our Caribbean sailing friends opted for a solid glass hull in light of the elevated temperatures in the tropics and how that might worsen any issues that may arise with time in a cored hull.
Agreed. I just don't see why you would take the 'risk' on it for a cruising or racing-cruising boat? Farr 40 circut, yes. Americas Cup? Yes. Non-cruising (not J42), yes. On others, why take the chance? Just core above the waterline. How much weight are you rela,ly saving? And if it is that critical, trim the pounds off of other areas like a CF mast and rigging, Removeable furniture, etc. I personally think there are a lot of ways to cut the weight out of a boat for racing while still keeping it 'safer' for cruising.
But again, these are my opinois and I realiz that there are many fine builders (Sabre just to name one) that use cored hulls.

Super good review of breeds
posted 7 years ago
While this book is excellent for reference, lately an explosion of new dog breeds being recognised by the AKC makes it a book that will need constant updating. Still, an older copy is nice to have :)
Pros: excellent and informative
Cons: is getting rapidly outdated

I've noticed that 90% of support questions seem to come through comments on an item page. As far as I know the only way to find out if there's a new comment is to login to the author dashboard. But, I'd really like to be notified when questions come in, so I can reply quicker.
Does any know if this is possible? Is there perhaps a setting somewhere that I'm not seeing? Or do I just have to religiously login to my dashboard?
On a sidenote it'd be cool to be notified when an item sells as well. If anyone know of a secret setting for that as well I'd love to know.
One option is to subscribe to the comments feed through an RSS reader.
As for item sales notifications, there is a Chrome extension that I use for that. Just search for "Envato". Probably something similar for Firefox too, I would guess
Hope that helps
There are also several great iOS apps for sales notifications, if you have an iPod touch or iPhone.
Interesting that envato doesn't provide anything themselves. Thanks for pointing out the other resrouces, I forgot all about the envato API 's I'll take a look at them and see if I can put something together myself!
I actually completely forgot about the API and RSS feeds. It never occurred to me to check for add ons either. Seems a little more complicated than it should be, but it's better than nothing. I suppose a well made app would be better than email notifications though. So I'll definitely look into it. Thanks guys!

TSA Replacement Underpants? TSAGiftShop.com Offers Bootleg Products Spoofing 'Male Junk,' TSA Alleged Abuses
A new online gift shop, TSAGiftShop.com, offers mugs, training posters, a line of "ËœTSA Replacement Clothing,' "ËœTSA 2011 Wall Calendar' and other bootleg products spoofing "ËœMale Junk,' TSA alleged abuses, and (alleged) "ËœSecret TSA Detention Centers.'
Athens, OH (PRWEB) December 10, 2010
A new, on-line gift shop offers unauthorized 'TSA products' which poke fun at the U.S. Transportation Security Administration (TSA) and hopes to find a market among the millions who feel outraged by the new airport security procedures.
Among its bootleg products, the Internet gift shop offers Gift Certificates, supposedly good for Deluxe TSA Full-Body Pat-Downs, 'TSA' training mugs, posters and other "Ëœstudy aids' plus a line of 'TSA Replacement Clothing' which include 'TSA' boxer shorts, "for those who may have had their underpants taken away during their recent strip search," says the artist/owner/manager of TSAGiftShop.com, Scott Gordon.
The centerpiece of the shop's offerings, says Gordon, is its 'TSA 2011 Wall Calendar' which provides a dozen artistic interpretations of the inside of TSA training facilities as well as the (perhaps nonexistent) 'TSA Secret Hospitality Centers' where, Gordon worries, "Unlucky members of the public may be invited to stay as a guest for an inordinate amount of time."
"The products are educational, insightful, and possibly incite-ful," says Gordon, who thinks the items will prove useful to anyone making a trip through airport security. As an example, he points out the April calendar page which offers tips on 'TSA Line Etiquette,' including, "the importance of carefully following directions and why it may not be a good idea to get out of line, without permission."
The March calendar page, according to Gordon, focuses on "the widely-circulating urban legend that the TSA's Advanced Imaging Technology (AIT) has the capability to download and store nude images of suspects."
Two calendar months are devoted to the agency's use of (perhaps nonexistent) 'Male Genital Detection Software' (MGDS) which Gordon envisions helps TSA agents assess the national security risks of 'male junk.'
"The TSA probably will deny that the MGDS software exists," explains Gordon, "but most qualified conspiracy theorists feel absolutely certain that it is already incorporated into the AIT full-body scanners and discreetly masks 'male junk' with appropriately-sized metaphorical icons." Gordon admits, however, that he can offer no proof that the MGDS actually exists.
For training purposes, educational mugs, posters, and other products in the gift shop illustrate examples of the on-screen, full-body scan-results of a stereotypical U.S. Senator and an Amish Peace Advocate to show how the software determines which of two such individuals might pose a greater threat to the nation's security.
In July, the calendar addresses the constitutional arguments against the TSA current search procedures and offers one possible explanation as to why the TSA may not feel the provisions of the 4th Amendment are applicable today: "First off, it was written on brown paper over 200 years ago by people who didn't even own iPods or flat-screen television sets, much less full-body scanners," says Gordon.
November explores the TSA's 'Prohibited Items List,' and illustrates "some of the items which, for their own personal safety, passengers should avoid hiding in their underpants," says Gordon. He elaborates by explaining, "Let's just say the list includes lots of thing with sharp edges but not just guillotines."
Finally, next December, the calendar offers the complete transcript from TSAGiftShop.com's recent YouTube video entitled: 'TSA: We're Sorry – Apology to Outraged American People for TSA Abuses.' "It's really a preemptive apology for next season's busy holiday season," Gordon explains.
About the gift shop's relationship with the security agency, Gordon says he thinks, "We're in sort of a unilateral, unofficial partnership. The TSA is like an unpaid, outside consulting artist, sort of a creative engine which provides the inspiration for most of our products. They're doing a great job."
Asked if TSAGiftShop.com is actually authorized by the infamous security agency, Gordon asserts, "Absolutely not. For the public's peace of mind we are completely independent of the TSA and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). Only by operating independently of the government can we hope the public will feel secure in knowing that profits from their purchases will not be used to buy more backscatter full-body scanners or powder-blue latex gloves."
Gordon emphasizes that TSAGiftShop.com is a commercial effort operating in the private sector: "To save the taxpayers money, and to assure efficiency, we've simply taken the initiative to privatize the TSA's gift shop along with a portion of their public relations," says Gordon, who seems hesitant to reveal how much money the on-line gift shop makes, "in case the TSA decides to 'un-privatize' us, place us in one of its assisted-living 'Hospitality Centers' or, worse, compete with us, which we all know, would be a major disaster."
"Right now," says Gordon, "the TSA just needs to stay focused on airport security screenings, an area they haven't yet mastered."
Who does he think will buy his bootleg TSA products? "TSA Job applicants, anyone who's felt embarrassed or humiliated or amused or outraged by the TSA's screening procedures, or maybe people who have suddenly realized the holiday gift-buying clock is running out," says Gordon. "And, very definitely," he adds, "everyone who works for the TSA or DHS. After all, they need wall calendars to know when the busy holiday seasons are approaching and, as we all know, they've got a great sense of humor."
Bootleg TSA products may be purchased on-line at TSAGiftShop.com

Into The Light
- 7 March — 14 June 2015 *on now
Into the Light is an exhibition of new work created by artists from The Arts Project based at Northgate Hospital. The work is inspired by the stories and collections of Woodhorn Museum and Northumberland Archives.
The Arts Project is part of the Therapeutic Activities Service within the Northumberland, Tyne and Wear NHS Foundation Trust. The Arts Project offers an ongoing comprehensive programme of practical art sessions led by professional artists. Patients make and learn about art, a process which directly contributes to positive clinical outcomes including improved well-being and feeling more included in society.
For this project, the artists and patients have worked together with Woodhorn staff to research, develop and create new work inspired by the museum and archive collections. As well as creating the art work, the project participants have co-curated the exhibition, selecting works and making decisions about their placement and presentation.
The professional artists who work for The Arts Project are exhibiting a piece of their own artwork alongside the work of patients and the work will not be attributed. The decision to do this puts the focus on the inclusivity of contemporary art-making and away from the professional and patient relationship.
Into the Light builds on Woodhorn Museum's commitment to presenting work made by artists who may be excluded from the traditional arts world due to health or social circumstances. This strand of programming is inspired by the story of the Ashington Group (Pitman Painters) whose collection is on permanent display here.
Along with art work on display in this gallery, don't miss the sound installation on the banner ramp where traditional brass band music receives a contemporary twist!
Into the Light is a partnership project between Woodhorn Museum and The Arts Project made possible by funding from Arts Council England and Northumberland County Council.

The Lost World of Norman Cornish
- 2 May — 11 October 2015 *on now
Born in 1919, in Spennymoor, County Durham, Norman Stansfield Cornish was 65 when he was persuaded to write his autobiography. He called it 'A Slice of Life' and indeed it was just that although one could say that it was brought into being a little prematurely given that a further three decades of remarkable activity were to follow its publication.
In the prologue to 'A Slice of Life', he describes the Dean and Chapter Colliery where he was to work, as "lying at the foot of a huge pit-heap which reminds one of a volcano, not only because of how it looks, but also because its contents have been spewed out of the depths in similar fashion". Imaginative and poetic perceptions like this one are present throughout his paintings and drawings which, one might reasonably claim, are his true autobiography.
Reflecting on his work he wrote "I made drawings of pub workers in days past because l was fascinated by the men standing at the bar drinking and talking, or sitting playing dominoes. I was attracted by the wonderful shapes that they make in their varied attitudes. I also realised that life would change in some ways. The local collieries have gone, together with the pit road. Many of the old streets, chapels and pubs are no more. A large number of the ordinary but fascinating people who frequent these places are gone. However, in my memory, and l hope in my drawings, they live on. I simply close my eyes and they all spring to life"

AV Festival presents: Sound Strata of Coastal Northumberland
- 27 June — 26 July 2015
Sound Strata of Coastal Northumberland is a multi-channel sound installation based on a cross-section diagram of coastal geological formations from the River Tyne to the Scottish border, drawn by local mining engineer Nicholas Wood in 1838.
Using the diagram as a graphic score, Stenger transforms the geologic into the sonic in a 59-minute work that travels from the coal seams of Tyneside to the porphyritic rocks north of the Tweed, layering instrumental sounds, melodic patterns and signature rhythms from traditional Northumbrian music and dance.
Responding to history, culture and place names as well as the drawing's structures, she combines surface detail of fiddle and Northumbrian pipe patterns with brass band harmonies, voice, Border and Highland pipes to create a unique portrait of place.
The exhibition is presented in the Workshop Gallery and features the 12.5-metre strata diagram that Wood drew to illustrate the location of coal measures on the Northumberland Coast. In addition, the exhibition also includes an archive display of Wood's other geological work in relation to the coal measures of Northumberland.
A fully illustrated publication including an essay by nature writer Robert Macfarlane and a CD stereo mix of the installation is available from Woodhorn and online for the special exhibition price of £15 and £20 thereafter.
Sound Strata of Coastal Northumberland was commissioned by AV Festival in 2014.
Throughout 2015 AV Festival is touring the work in Northumberland to Berwick-upon-Tweed, Woodhorn Museum and Holy Island. www.avfestival.co.uk

Nicholas Wood Lecture
- 15 July 2015 2-3pm
Join historian Bill Lancaster to explore the life of talented nineteenth-century mining engineer Nicholas Wood, who revolutionised deep mining and transportation. The talk is organised to coincide with the exhibition Sound Strata of Coastal Northumberland which features Wood's 12.5-metre strata diagram that illustrates the location of coal measures on the Northumberland coast. In addition, the exhibition also includes an archive display of Wood's other geological work in relation to the coal measures of Northumberland.
Throughout the nineteenth century, a circle of men from Tyneside, Wearside and the Great Northern Coalfield, such as George and Robert Stephenson (friends and colleagues of Nicholas Wood), helped create the modern industrial world. Bill Lancaster will talk about this group of innovators, who in 1852 founded The Mining Institute in Newcastle with Nicholas Wood as its first president.
Nicholas Wood was born in 1795, at the farm of Daniel, lying between Bradley Hall and Wylam, of which his father was a tenant. In 1811, through the influence of his father's landlord Sir Thomas Liddell, he was sent to Killingworth Colliery to learn the profession of a coal-viewer. At Killingworth, Wood met George Stephenson and made the working drawing from which the first Stephenson safety lamp was made and tested in a dangerous blower in Killingworth Pit. By the 1830s, Wood had acquired a considerable reputation as a colliery and railway engineer, and was rapidly extending his influence in the coal trade. By 1844 he was managing the important collieries at Hetton, had become the sole owner of Black Boy, Coundon, Westerton and Leasingthorne collieries, and part owner of Harton, Hilda and Jarrow collieries. In response to the Mines Inspection Act of 1852, local colliery owners and mining engineers formed The Mining Institute, of which Nicholas Wood was elected the founding president.
Bill Lancaster was the founder and editor of Northern Review, a Journal of Regional and Cultural Affairs, and the director of the Centre for Northern Studies from 1997 – 2007. Until 2008 he taught at Northumbria University and was director there of the Centre for North East History. He was awarded a BA in History and Sociology, a MA in Comparative Social History and a PhD in History from Warwick University. He was elected fellow of the Royal Historical Society in 1991.

With a perfect final brush stroke, my version of the Fritz Musictour concludes at the Ramones Museum — the world's only museum solely dedicated to the legendary New York punk band.
Located on a nondescript side street in Berlin Mitte, the collection of 300+ artifacts resulted from the obsessions of Florian Hayler, a local Ramones fanatic. For € 3.50, visitors enter a small labyrinth of Ramones clothing, posters, news clippings, set lists, cardboard cutouts, skateboard decks, backstage passes, album covers and other ephemera.
At first, visitors may wonder why a band that so exemplified New York City would be memorialized as far away as Berlin, but Dee Dee Ramone, the band's primary songwriter, spent much of his childhood in Berlin as an army brat. His mother was German and his own half-Germanness creeped into several Ramones lyrics over the years.
In 1995, the final song on the final Ramones album was titled, "Born to Die in Berlin," penned by Dee Dee, even though he had long since left the band by then. The recording features him singing the bridge in German, which he submitted over the phone.
Dee Dee, who essentially invented punk rock bass playing, battled drugs for most of his life. In 2002, he sadly lost the fight, overdosing on heroin in Los Angeles at age 50 — just four months after the Ramones were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. He often said that if he had to choose a real home, Berlin it would be.
In the end, I am left with a gorgeous new way of experiencing Berlin. My ears are ringing.
The new Ramones Museum opened in the Fall of 2008, a revival of the original museum which opened in 2005. The Museum features over 500 pieces of memorabilia from the internationally acclaimed New York rock stars, and hosts live shows and movie screenings regularly.
Open 7 days a week 12pm -10pm, the Museum is located at Krausnickstr. 23, 10115 Berlin-Mitte, Germany.
For a full list of upcoming events and more information visit Ramones Museum.

'I have chosen to opt for a Romantic version of the St George and the dragon theme - a medieval knight of Arthurian legend rather than a classical hero. I have given the dragon a more threatening attitude and size, so that it represents a real menace and not a weak foe.

McCarthy tabbed as "intriguing" coach
By Bleacher Report ,
In fact, McCarthy's at the head of the class taking up the number one spot.
Reid Cherner and Tom Weir write, " How would you like to be this guy? He has spent the last month talking about a quarterback that will never play for him again. And he has put his trust and possibly his career with the team with a guy who McCarthy thinks is the future of the franchise but has never been in charge. And if it is possible to forget about Brett Favre and Aaron Rodgers then he can think about his top running back Ryan Grant sitting out in a contract dispute."
Right now McCarthy is intriguing because of all the controversy surrounding him. Packer fans are hoping he'll be intriguing because of results by January.

It appears the city's firefighters union is interested in being a part of the lawsuit the Milwaukee Police Association has filed against Milwaukee, asking a judge to force the city to abide with a state law ending residency for all local units of government.
At a telephonic status conference Thursday before Circuit Judge Paul Van Grunsven, an attorney representing the Milwaukee Professional Firefighters Association Local 215 said the union may seek to intervene with the MPA suit.
Neither John Fuchs nor Rebecca Boyle, the attorneys representing firefighters, returned a call seeking comment. But Deputy City Attorney Rudolph Konrad, representing the city with City Attorney Grant Langley, said Fuchs indicated the local planned to file a motion with Van Grunsven to intervene in the suit.
The MPA is seeking a court order that would force the city to follow state law and drop the residency rule that has been on the city books since 1938. Circuit Judge Daniel Noonan granted the MPA a temporary restraining order, agreed to by the city, that the city will not enforce its ordinance while the case is litigated.
Asked if the temporary restraining order frees up a police officer to leave the city and move from Milwaukee, Konrad said there would be no consequences for that officer.
"But if the city prevails and we win, they would have to move back," Konrad said.
The MPA lawsuit includes four police officers. One of them, Officer Steven Van Erden, states in the suit that he has already moved out of the city but within the geographical boundaries outlined in the law. Another plaintiff, Officer Glenn J. Podlesnik, states in the suit that on July 1 he planned to move to New Berlin. The two other officers, Detective Michael Crivello, currently the president of the MPA, and Officer James A. Black both say they would like to move out of the city.
Mike Tobin, executive director of the Fire and Police Commission, said in an email that he was not aware of any officer as of Thursday "that has changed their residence other than those already indicated in the lawsuit."
"We are currently temporarily complying with the TRO, which is actually a stipulation of agreement between the city attorney and the MPA, and not enforcing the residency rule for officers as of July 2, 2013, and until further direction is received from the court and city attorney's office," Tobin said.

Just over 60 seconds of sound from an IKEA cafeteria. Due to the international nature of the IKEA brand, I am sure you can go here this almost in any country :) Recording chain: SP-TFB-2 Binaural Microphones (face up on table) - Edirol R-09 (mic in, level 12, high gain, 24 bit @ 44.1 kHz) - 16 bit 44.1 kHz.
Thanks you! I need this for LPS videos!
Actually I don't recall there being music in the cafeteria of my local IKEA. I know there is in the actual store, but not in the cafeteria. Think I'll go check in a couple of days!
Not surprisingly they all sound the same :)

Maize, commonly known as corn, grows on the leafy stalk. The seeds are called kernels and are used in cooking as a vegetable or as starch. Maize is the most widely grown grain crop in America and the staple food in many regions of the world.
The health benefits of corn include controlling diabetes, prevention of heart ailments and lowering hypertension. It not only provides the necessary calories for daily metabolism, but is also a rich source of vitamins A, B, E and many minerals. Its high fibre content ensures it plays a role in prevention of digestive ailments such as constipation, haemorrhoids and colorectal cancer.
The antioxidants present in corn also act as anti-cancer agents and prevent Alzheimer's. Corn is rich in vitamin B constituents, especially Thiamin and Niacin. It contains abundant phosphorus apart from magnesium, manganese, zinc, iron and copper. The vitamin B12 and folic acid present in corn help prevent anaemia.
Popcorn consists of kernels of certain varieties that explode when heated, forming fluffy pieces that are eaten as a snack. Unleavened bread called makki ki roti is eaten in the Punjab region of India and Pakistan.
Cornflakes are a common breakfast cereal all over the world. Dried maize mote, also known as hominy, is used in Mexican cuisine. The Brazilian dessert canjica is made by boiling maize kernels in sweetened milk.
Now, for a recipe.
Makki Ki Roti
Makki atta (maize flour): 3 cups
Green chillies, chopped: 2
Salt to taste
Coriander leaves, chopped: a few sprigs
Water: three-fourth cup
Method: Mix all the dry ingredients together. Make a hole in the middle and pour hot boiling water to it. Mix it lightly with a spatula; allow the dough to sit for a few minutes. Knead it well until smooth. Divide the dough into small balls. Place them on a lightly greased plastic sheet. Flatten a ball of dough slightly with your palm, place a plastic sheet on top of it; gently pat it to flatten it further. Remove the plastic sheet; transfer the pancake on to a tawa. Turn it on the other side after about 3-4 minutes of cooking or when you see it turn a deeper shade of yellow with brown-red spots. Serve makki ki roti with sarson ka saag.

Submitted by coondoggie
coondoggie writes: The world's first purpose-built commercial space base will be the site of the first space flights with Sir Richard Branson's Virgin Galactic. Those flights could begin by the end of the year but no official date has been established. The spaceport is near the town of Truth or Consequences in New Mexico — west of the White Sands Missile Range and will ultimately be its own little city with emergency services, restaurants and other amenities. Reuters noted that inaugural flight into suborbital space, for those who have who have made reservations, cost $250,000. Take a look around:

|Corsican immigration to Puerto Rico
|Geographical similarities between both islands
Corsican immigration to Puerto Rico came about as a result of various economic and political changes in the mid-19th century Europe; among those factors were the social-economic changes which came about in Europe as a result of the Second Industrial Revolution, political discontent and widespread crop failure due to long periods of drought, and crop diseases. Another influential factor was that Spain had lost most of its possessions in the so-called "New World" and feared the possibility of a rebellion in its last two Caribbean possessions—Puerto Rico and Cuba. As a consequence the Spanish Crown had issued the Royal Decree of Graces (Real Cedula de Gracias) which fostered and encouraged the immigration of European Catholics that were not of Spanish origin to its Caribbean Colonies.
The situation and opportunities offered, plus the fact that the geographies of the islands are similar, were ideal for the immigration of hundreds of families from Corsica to Puerto Rico. Corsicans and those of Corsican descent have played an instrumental role in the development of the economy of the island, especially in the coffee industry.
Corsica is an island located west of Italy and southeast of France. Corsica belonged to the Republic of Genoa (before Genoa became part of Italy) and in 1768 was ceded to France to pay off debt. The island relied largely on its agricultural economy for survival.[1]
Certain changes occurred in Europe during the end of the 18th century and beginning of the 19th century that would greatly affect the lives of the French and the people of Corsica. One of those changes came about with the advent of the Second Industrial Revolution. With the Second Industrial Revolution, many of the people who worked in agriculture began to move to the larger cities with hopes of finding better jobs and better lives. Also, there was a widespread crop failure due to long periods of drought and crop diseases (e.g., the phylloxera epidemic destroyed the Corsican wine industry), cholera epidemic and a general deterioration of economic conditions. Thus, many of the farms in Corsica began to fail.[2]
There was also widespread political discontent characterized by bitter armed conflict. King Louis-Philippe of France was overthrown in the Revolution of 1848 and a republic was declared with a Provisional Government. Three new political groups emerged during that era: they were the liberals, radicals and the socialists. The combination of man-made and natural disasters in Corsica created an acute feeling of hopelessness.[3] All this came about at a time when Spain was growing fearful of the possibility of a rebellion in her Caribbean possessions, which consisted of Puerto Rico and Cuba.
By 1850, Spain had lost the entirety of her territories in South America and Central America and sought measures of preventing a repeat of this in the Caribbean. It was decided that an influx of Catholic immigrants from Ireland, Corsica and Italy would provide a loyal base for the Crown and appeals were made to encourage immigration. In 1815, the Spanish Crown had issued the Royal Decree of Graces (Real Cedula de Gracias) which fostered the immigration of European Catholics that were not of Spanish origin to its Caribbean colonies, Puerto Rico and Cuba.[4]
The island of Puerto Rico is very similar in geography to the island of Corsica and therefore appealed to the many Corsicans who wanted to start a "new" life. Under the Spanish Royal Decree of Graces, the Corsicans and other immigrants were granted land and initially given a "Letter of Domicile" after swearing loyalty to the Spanish Crown and allegiance to the Catholic Church. After five years they could request a "Letter of Naturalization" that would make them Spanish subjects.[4]
Hundreds of Corsicans and their families immigrated to Puerto Rico from as early as 1830, and their numbers peaked in the early 1900s. The first Spanish settlers settled and owned the land in the coastal areas, the Corsicans tended to settle the mountainous southwestern region of the island, primary in the towns of Adjuntas, Lares, Utuado, Ponce, Coamo, Yauco, Guayanilla and Guánica. However, it was Yauco whose rich agricultural area attracted the majority of the Corsican settlers.[5] The three main crops in Yauco were coffee, sugar cane and tobacco. The new settlers dedicated themselves to the cultivation of these crops and within a short period of time some were even able to own and operate their own grocery stores. However, it was with the cultivation of the coffee bean that they would make their fortunes. Cultivation of coffee in Yauco originally began in the Rancheras and Diego Hernández sectors and later extended to the Aguas Blancas, Frailes and Rubias sectors. By the 1860s the Corsican settlers were the leaders of the coffee industry in Puerto Rico and seven out of ten coffee plantations were owned by Corsicans.[6]
The Mariani family of Yauco decided on two courses of action which would strengthen their coffee industry. First, a cotton gin was converted into a machine which was used in dehusking coffee cherries. Second, they sent two of their own as representatives to visit the important European coffee buying centers. The visit to Europe was a success and thus, Puerto Rico became an important member of the worldwide coffee industry.[7]
The descendants of the Corsican settlers were also to become influential in the fields of education, literature, journalism and politics. Historian, Colonel Hector A. Negroni, (USAF-Retired), researched the Corsican-Puerto Rican connection and has provided with his work a wealth of information about Puerto Rico's ties with Corsica. Today the town of Yauco is known as both the "Corsican Town" and "The Coffee Town". There's a memorial in Yauco with the inscription, "To the memory of our citizens of Corsican origin, France, who in the C19 became rooted in our village, who have enriched our culture with their traditions and helped our progress with their dedicated work - the municipality of Yauco pays them homage." The Corsican element of Puerto Rico is very much in evidence, Corsican surnames such as Paoli, Negroni and Fraticelli are common.[8]
Several properties in Yauco which once belonged to the Corsicans who settled there are registered in the National Register of Historic Places in Puerto Rico.[9]
The Casa Franceschi Antongiorgi (Franceschi Antongiorgi House) was built in 1907, by the French architect André Troublard, for Alejandro . Franceschi Antongiorgi was a rich landowner and lover of the arts who frequently held banquets, concerts and meetings with visiting artists in his house.[10]
The Casa Antonio Mattei Lluberas, also called La Casona Césari (Césari House) was built in 1893 by Antonio Mattei Lluberas. This house is also known as "The House with Twelve Doors." Later, it was acquired by Angel Césari Poggi, husband of Angela Antongiorgi Rodríguez. The Césari–Antongiorgi family was instrumental in the development of the sugar industry in the southern region of the island.[11]
The Chalet Amill was built in 1914 by Architect Tomás Olivari Santoni for Ángel Antongiorgi Paoli. Paoli gave the chalet to his daughter Ana Lucía as a wedding gift when she married Juan Amill Rodríguez. The couple soon divorced and by the mid-1920s the chalet was converted into a hotel. First as the Auristela Hotel and then as the Paris Hotel.
The Mansion Negroni (Negroni Mansion), also known as Casa Agostini (Agostini House), was built around 1850 by Antonio Francisco Negroni Mattei. Later it passed to the Agostini Family through the marriage of Maria Victoria Negroni, daughter of Antonio Francisco, and Ignacio Agostini Felipi. . The Agostini family made their fortune in the exportation of coffee. They were the owners of "Sobrinos de Agostini y Compañía" (Nephews of Agostini & Co.). Ángel Pedro Agostini Natali, a member of the family, is credited with inventing the coffee grinder. This machine revolutionized the coffee industry. As a consequence, the island was able to meet the huge demand for Puerto Rican coffee which resulted in the "Golden Age" of Yauco's economy. This house was acquired by the Holy Rosary School in Yauco and a bronze plaque describes its history.[12]
The Residencia Lluberas-Negroni, erroneously called The Residencia González Vivaldi (González Vivaldi Residence) was built in 1880 by Arturo Lluberas for his wife Asuncion Negroni. Most recently, it was acquired by the Gonzalez-Vivaldi Family.
The following is a list of some of the distinguished natives of Yauco of Corsican descent.[13]
Besides having distinguished careers in agriculture and the military, Puerto Ricans of Corsican descent have made many other contributions to the Puerto Rican way of life. Their contributions can be found, but are not limited to, the fields of education, commerce, politics and entertainment. The Vivoni family has four notable members, they are Carlos Vivoni, the former Secretary of Economic Development and Commerce, former Secretary of Housing; Pedro Santos Vivoni the first Mayor of Lajas, Pierre Vivoni, a Judge and former Police Commissioner and Jose Antonio Vivoni Ramirez de Arellano, the former Mayor of San German.[16]
Other Puerto Ricans of Corsican descent who have led notable political careers were Ernesto Ramos Antonini was the first President of the House of Representatives of Puerto Rico and co-founder of the Partido Popular Democrático de Puerto Rico (Popular Democratic Party of Puerto Rico);[17]Jaime Fuster Berlingeri an associate justice of the Puerto Rico Supreme Court and former Resident Commissioner;[18] Jorge Farinacci, the head of Puerto Rican Socialist Party [19] and Jorge Santini, the Mayor of San Juan.[20]
One of the first Puerto Rican entertainers to achieve world-wide fame was Antonio Paoli, an opera singer known as "The King of Tenors" and as "The Tenor of Kings." He was the first operatic artist to record an entire opera when he participated in a performance of Pagliacci by Ruggiero Leoncavallo in Italy in 1907.[21] The Palmieri brothers, Charlie and Eddie Palmieri were band leaders in the United States[22] and Rock N Roll Hall of Famer Joe Negroni was a member of the rock and roll group The Teenagers.[23] Both Americo Boschetti.[24] and Vicente Carattini were singers and composers. Carattini composed Puerto Rican Christmas related songs. [25] Carmen Delia Dipini was also a notable of singer of boleros. [26]
The following is an official list of the surnames of the first 403 Corsican families who immigrated to the Adjuntas, Yauco, Guayanilla, and Guanica areas of Puerto Rico in the 19th Century.

The English word games are:
○ Anagrams
○ Wildcard, crossword
○ Lettris
○ Boggle.
Lettris is a curious tetris-clone game where all the bricks have the same square shape but different content. Each square carries a letter. To make squares disappear and save space for other squares you have to assemble English words (left, right, up, down) from the falling squares.
Boggle gives you 3 minutes to find as many words (3 letters or more) as you can in a grid of 16 letters. You can also try the grid of 16 letters. Letters must be adjacent and longer words score better. See if you can get into the grid Hall of Fame !
