:: Metro Pulse Online :: Haslam is reluctant to talk specifics, but others talk of Brunswick, the national boat-building company that already has its headquarters offices downtown, might be a natural fit for a shoreline headquarters. Fregonese Calthorpe estimates a total of $45 million in public investment over 20 years, from rebuilding railroad trestles to building a parking garage to building the east-west Blount-Sevier boulevard; but would allocate $71 million over the same period. Probably the biggest jaw-dropper in the whole Fregonese Calthorpe study is the suggestion, in the most aggressive of the three scenarios, of evicting Baptist Hospital in favor of something sexier, like a corporate headquarters. www.metropulse.com /articles/2005/15_25/cover_story.shtml   (5620 words)

Grand Ambition: Excerpt Part 2 A half-skilled handyman, clinging like a limpet to the Santa Fe line, he'd come by to offer his help building the boat, and when Glen said he couldn't pay, he had offered to work for free. It was true; she had felt restless in the weeks it had taken Glen to build the boat. It was one thing to talk of adventure, another to push back from the bank and begin. www.wwnorton.com /catalog/spring01/grand2.htm   (5620 words)

Ark - Mike Bull Listening to Mike talk about his plans for the boatyard, his dream of a rowing club, and the satisfaction he takes in the progress of his volunteer carpenters, you can sense the debt he owes to the community of boat builders with whom he grew up and worked on England's south coast.. Out my window I could see boat building yards and shops on the river Itchen, from Southampton docks on up to Northern Bridge and farther north to Cobden Bridge - beginning with Vosper Thornycroft up three or four miles on both sides of the river. I guess what attracted me....was I started rowing when I was ten or eleven - on the same river, the river Itchen. www.utexas.edu /courses/kincaid/arkboats/text/aboutmike.html   (845 words)

Learning Objects in Motion: Campus Technology Whether you're building a bridge, a spaceship, or a speed boat, you can accomplish the task with a selection of Lego building blocks.

ie_history Joe had some business dealings in Mexico, and in 1962 the road from Los Angeles to Tijuana ran right past the site where Del Boyce was building his fishing boat. Joe Pyne, then a very popular radio talk show host, and to add even more confusion the drawings for the new pilot house, done by Arthur DeFever in 1969, show the owner as a Mr. He came to the conclusion that sailing was hard work, and that the fisherman knew a darn sight more about the type of boats that were needed along the California coast than the yachtsmen did. www.islandeagle.net /ie_history   (902 words)

Go Boating America When most boaters think of the name Crestliner, they think pontoon boats, but the Rampage is one of the company’s forays into building an aluminum-constructed V-hull boat.

Crumrine - West Brownsville Borough Kimber was then building a steamboat for "Old Bob" Rogers, but as he had occasion to be absent from the yard the greater part of the time, and left young Pringle in charge of the work, the latter was looked upon by Rogers as her real builder. Michael Cresap was also licensed the same day "to keep a ferry on Monongahela River at Redstone Old Fort to the land of Indian Peter [now West Brownsville], and that he provide a boat." Cresap died in the fall of that year. The modern cant and criticism which we sometimes hear about Washington not being, after all, a very great man would have been dangerous talk on that day and in that assemblage. www.chartiers.com /crumrine/twp-b-wbrownsville.html   (848 words)

OZ STUDIES PROGRAM Many of the Pacific islands like Balau (Palau), Yap, and Guam were peopled by our ancestors as early as 1,500 B. as shown by archaeological finds such as Lapita ware, cultivation of yams, domestication of the pig and boat building technology. Historians often talk about the period from 1860s to 1880s as the rise of the bourgeoisie particularly relating to the gold and the money made through sheep raising and wheat farming. And the attitudes that fed into what became known as "One Australia policy" were, I think, to a large extent, was born out of the experiences of the Chinese in the gold fields and the attitudes of the men of press, mainly the popular press elsewhere. sites.uws.edu.au /social/psaa/ozstudys.html   (531 words)

Phil's Titanic Page Titanic Research and Model Page Sean Winterberg's page is full of useful tips for building Titanic models such as the Revell; or Academy Minicraft kit. Many of the passengers had taken the Boat Train from London's Waterloo station, down to Southampton, no doubt looking forward to being the first paying passengers on the grandest ship afloat. This was a luxury that very few of them would have in their own homes, and when we talk of the steerage passengers today, it must be remembered that their cabins and accommodation were exceptionally good for the time, as was their food. titanic.pottsoft.com   (1611 words)

david Then, after Hurricane David had passed, John went into Santo Domingo — had ridden a little row-boat of Willie's across the river because the bridge to Nigua was washed out, and had hiked into Santo Domingo and went to the post office. It's been very interesting to be able to sit down and talk with the Shannons about their experiences with Hurricane David. I told John how we'd been grateful for Trujillo's fear of being bombed, and his building La Posada as well reinforced and sturdy as he did, otherwise they all probably would've been killed. www.wakeupbarbara.com /david.html   (3321 words)

So the dull, wet winter of 1825-26 passed — endless talk enlivened by studying birds, not the least being the huge North American condor (Douglas called it a vulture), once common from the Columbia southward, now almost extinct save for about fifty closely-protected ones in the mountains of southern California.
