This web site is dedicated to the display of pictures of and information about towboats on the rivers of the United States. Over the years, quite a few tugboats have been incorporated as well. For pictures of and information about riverboats other than towboats or tugboats, check out . One of the many joys of living and boating on the Mississippi River is the opportunity to observe the passage of large towboats plying their way up and downstream, engaging in commerce, carrying huge loads of grain, coal, petroleum products and other goods. Over the years I accumulated a collection of pictures of towboats as they passed by our home. Originally, this web site was to display those pictures, mostly taken by me in various locations around St. Paul, MN, primarily near mile 819.4 on the Upper Mississippi River (UMR), about twenty miles downstream of St. Paul. However, a funny thing happened along the way. Thanks to the efforts of many fine folks who have contributed pictures, information and assistance (see CREDITS below), this web site can no longer be considered as primarily devoted to one area. It now contains pictures taken in locations up and down the Mississippi, Ohio, and other rivers. Some of the earlier photographs were taken long ago, while the latest ones were taken in the last few weeks or days.

If you have good photographs you have taken of towboats on the Mississippi, or the Ohio, or any of the Western Rivers, and you would like them displayed here, send them to me via an e-mail attachment, and I will post them along with the proper credits. I may adjust color balance, brightness, contrast, etc., and/or crop them as I feel necessary, although I'll try to disturb your work as little as possible. Photos are typically displayed here at 640 x 480 resolution, but I prefer starting with higher resolution photos so that there is more leeway for cropping. My e-mail is on broadband, so any resolution that's not too painful for you to upload is OK.

Vessel or company names and/or logos that appear in photographs, or in accompanying information, are incidental, and do not imply any association.

Where known, the size and power of the towboat, documentation number, ownership and name change history are shown along with the photograph(s). Boat pages added or updated starting in mid-December of 2010 also contain ownership history as well as engine and machinery specifications. Most of this and other information shown was derived from the 2015 and earlier editions of the "INLAND RIVER RECORD", edited by Dan Owen. Copies are available through "The Waterways Journal".

Many thanks for your contributions. They are greatly appreciated.

A few of the towboats in this collection are unidentified, either because the name was not visible due to the angle of the photograph, or it was unreadable. These are displayed under the heading Unidentified Towboats. If you recognize one of these unidentified vessels, please send me an e-mail, using the link near the bottom of the page. I would love to have all the boats in the gallery identified.

Click on the main image above or on any towboat name in the menus on the left, and you will be taken to a page containing the photo(s) of that towboat. Click on any image in the thumbnails list below the menus on any page, and a larger version of that image will replace the main image on the then-current page. Clicking on one of the arrows next to the thumbnails list on any page will rotate the list up or down. Clicking on the or links above the main image on any page will cause a larger version of the next or previous image in the thumbnails list to replace the current image. Clicking on the link above the main image will cause all the photos for that boat to be shown one after the other, continuing until some other link is selected. Enjoy!

There's a Slide Show feature that works for all Towboat Gallery pages other than the home page. If a page has more than one photo, a link will be located between the and links, just above the main photo. Clicking on the link will start a slide show of all the photos of that boat. The slide show will continue until you make another menu selection, click on a thumbnail image, or click on one of the , or links. Enjoy!

When you first enter the Towboat Gallery, you will see a "Select Desired Menu" menu with a choice of several menus; the first shows the boats in alphabetic order by name; a second menu with the boats in order by length, longest first; a third menu with the boats in order by power, highest first; a fourth menu with the boats in alphabetic order by builder; a fifth menu with boats listed by number of screws/engines, quadruple to single; a sixth menu with the boats listed by age, oldest first; and a seventh menu listing the credited photographers in alphabetical order, followed by a list of the boats where their photographs appear. Once you make your selection, the menu that you chose is the one that will continue to be shown, unless you decide to switch menus. Each menu will contain an entry labeled "Select a Different Menu"; clicking on that entry will return you to the "Select Desired Menu" menu. There's one other menu option, the Expanded Boat Names Menu, which works a little differently. If you select that option, a larger menu will appear in the middle of the page, with letter buttons to get you quickly into the menu wherever you want to be (A, B,...etc.). Another difference: when you click on a boat name in the Expanded Boat Names Menu, the page will display in a new tab. This menu has more boat names than the regular menu. Why? Because the regular menu only shows names of boats when we have photos of them with that name (exception: when we don't have a photo of a boat with its current name, that name will be shown, but it will be enclosed in parentheses). The Expanded Boat Name Menu has all the names by which any of the boats in the Towboat Gallery have ever been known, whether we have photos of them with that name or not. If you select a name for which we don't have a photo, you'll be taken to the page for that boat's current name. Please let me know if you find this feature useful.

Mike Huckabee Announces ‘Chick-Fil-A Appreciation Day’ in Response to ‘Intolerant Bigotry from the Left’

Mike Huckabee is defending Chick-Fil-A's anti-gay policies in a Facebook post in which he announces Chick-Fil-A Appreciation Day on August 1.

HuckabeeWrites Huckabee:

I have been incensed at the vitriolic assaults on the Chick Fil-A company because the CEO, Dan Cathy, made comments recently in which he affirmed his view that the Biblical view of marriage should be upheld. The Cathy family, let by Chick Fil-A founder Truett Cathy, are a wonderful Christian family who are committed to operating the company with Biblical principles and whose story is the true American success story. Starting at age 46 Truett Cathy built Chick Fil-A into a $4 billion a year enterprise with over 1600 stores. At 91, he is still active in the company, but his son Dan runs it day to day as CEO.It's a great American story that is being smeared by vicious hate speech and intolerant bigotry from the left.

The Chick Fil-A company refuses to open on Sundays so that their employees can go to church if they wish. Despite the pressure from malls, airports, and the business world to open on Sundays, they still don't. They treat customers and employees with respect and dignity.

I ask you to join me in speaking out on Wednesday, August 1 "Chick Fil-A Appreciation Day.” No one is being asked to make signs, speeches, or openly demonstrate. The goal is simple: Let's affirm a business that operates on Christian principles and whose executives are willing to take a stand for the Godly values we espouse by simply showing up and eating at Chick Fil-A on Wednesday, August 1. Too often, those on the left make corporate statements to show support for same sex marriage, abortion, or profanity, but if Christians affirm traditional values, we're considered homophobic, fundamentalists, hate-mongers, and intolerant. This effort is not being launched by the Chick Fil-A company and no one from the company or family is involved in proposing or promoting it.

There's no need for anyone to be angry or engage in a verbal battle. Simply affirm appreciation for a company run by Christian principles by showing up on Wednesday, August 1 or by participating online – tweeting your support or sending a message on Facebook.

  1. says

    he later went on to celebrate the Boy Scouts of America by encouraging more people to do what his own (straight) son did – which is to torture and kill a stray dog.

    because that’s what being a Huckabee is all about.

  2. HadenoughBS says

    Huckabee, Cathy and thousands of similar believers on the religious right have no idea what “intolerant bigotry” truly means. They’re deaf and blind about this concept unless they deem it in their Biblical self-interest. Not surprising but a hint of what’s to come under an intolerant bigoted Romney administration with Mormon overtones.

  3. The Milkman says

    But it’s NOT just a company run on Christian principles. It’s a company that provides significant monetary and in-kind support to political initiatives designed to ensure that gay people remain second-class citizens. Not the same thing at all, Huckabee. And you can stuff it with all that whining “bigotry from the left” crap. We all know bigotry when we see it. And we see it. All over you. Reflexively repeating “I know you are, but what am I” isn’t going to do anything to change that.

  4. Tarc says

    Good for Huckabee… the insane guy can get food poisoning like all the other Chik-Fil-A customers. Gross food, gross morals, gross management, gross promoters. And I have to ask, does that ‘reverse-anything-that-makes-sense-to-push-an-agenda-no-matter-how-stupid-it-is’ conservative streategy still work? I think not.

  5. john patrick says

    Mister Huckabee, you are “considered homophobic, fundamentalists, hate-mongers, and intolerant” not just because of what you believe, but because you fund and vote for policies that would restrict the rights of those of us who are your LGBT fellow citizens. It is not “vicious hate speech and intolerant bigotry from the left” to point that out and to oppose the intolerance from people you call “a wonderful Christian family who are committed to operating the company with Biblical principles.” If they are such a “wonderful Christian family,” why are they judging us based on principles never espoused by Jesus himself? By the way, does not the Biblical view of marriage include polygamy?

    We are standing up for ourselves because we value ourselves and realize our worth as citizens and human beings. We do not accept the judgment of your religious beliefs. And we do not refrain from calling your beliefs judgmental and bigoted and homophobic, just because you say they are “religious” and “Biblical.” Our rights take precedence over your beliefs.

  6. Paul R says

    He must be on the payroll, sleeping with an executive, or simply profoundly stupid. Oh wait, that last one is a given. What a ridiculous idea.

  7. Jeff Kurtti says

    Next, Huckabee is going to set up a “Greensboro Wollworth’s Lunch Counter Appreciation Day” to counter the “vitriolic assaults” on those “Christian” Segregation principles, to show again what a forward-facing leader and “man of the times” he is.

  8. Toto says

    I really do hope history remembers this bigot, and all of those that share his moronic views.

  9. One of the CA 36,000 says

    Ahh, another nugget of bullsh!t from the rotted-out piehole of Mike “Can’t Spell Arkansas Without A-S-S” Huckabee, part-time minister and full-time idiot.

    Let’s all shed a sarcastic tear for the poor put-upon Christians in the U.S., that downtrodden minority of 70% of the population.

    In the Bizarro world they inhabit, calling someone’s Bible-based condemnation of a whole minority group’s civil rights and very existence “bigotry”– which it unambiguously IS– counts as “intolerant bigotry” against Christianity.

    The vast stupidity, faux-victimization and complete cognitive dissonance in that mindset makes my head hurt.

    And Chick-Fil-A food makes my intestines scream for bloody mercy. Christians and Chick-Fil-A are evil and bad for me. I won’t darken the door of those establishments, except to go in, make a huge order, then say, “This is Chick-Fil-A?! I would NEVER eat this poisonous garbage, or give money to you gay-hating fake Christian pigs!” Might as well have fun with a boycott…!

  10. says

    One can only imagine how much chicken Huckabee will wolf down to show his Biblical appreciation for Chick-Fil-A. Somebody’s going to have greasy greasy fingers. Maybe our determined commentator “Pam” from the Boston Chick-Fil-A thread can join him for a chow down?

  11. Gareth says

    “Too often, those on the left make corporate statements to show support for same sex marriage, abortion, or profanity…”

    How can anyone equate those three things?

  12. octobercountry says

    And once again, let’s reiterate—-“Biblical Marriage” = “one man and as many women as he can afford to buy.” These fundamentalists have a skewed vision of history that doesn’t line up with the facts AT ALL.

  13. kpo5 says

    Stopped reading at “vitriolic assaults.’

    That victim card has to be worn to shreds by now.

    Those poor, poor, bigots. Someone called them a naughty name.

    It’s just as if someone beat them to near-death and tied them to a fence. Or curb-stomped them. Or waited for them to leave their church and attacked them.

    It’s practically the same thing.

  14. RichB in PS says

    I am aware he has made his opinion public equating gay boy scout leaders with child molesters. I have not and will not watch his show and will immediately boycott all associates and identified tv sponsors.

  15. Robert In WeHo says

    I’m surprised he didn’t invoke Adolph Hitler. Isn’t that the Religious Right’s favorite go to guy on all things bigoted these days?

  16. Arrowsmith says

    Oh yes, “Biblical” marriage, where women are property and can be stoned or beaten at the drop of a hat. Yes, because that is SO MUCH BETTER than two people who love each other getting additional government benefits.

  17. Daniel Berry, NYC says

    The Reverend Mr Huckabee is the very devil himself–not that that’s particularly noteworthy among the clergy.

  18. Rob says

    Ha Ha, The Baptist witch doctor is pissed and they are circling the wagons. Biblical marriage and biblical business practices? So many definitions in the bible about that. But it’s just the crazy Baptist viewpoint that is true. Haha. Hmmmmm. I’m a business owner and I didn’t earn my business degree in the Bible.

  19. says

    “How dare you be intolerant of our intolerance! We should be free to treat gays like second-class citizens because a 2000 year old book written by some bored Jewish dudes said so. Plus, gay guys make us feel all tingly in our no-no places and therefore must be punished for making us feel that way!”

    I hope Huckabee starts pigging out on their greasy crap and puts back on all the weight he lost from his bariatric surgery. Dude already looks like he’s storing waffle fries in his cheeks.

  20. NeverEclipsed81 says

    So hopefully he sent a copy of this to Bryan Fischer, because the only thing that made me angry in all of this, was reading his oped last week!

  21. NeverEclipsed81 says

    Funny coming from someone as professional as Mike Huckabee, that we have another example of pushing agenda ahead of neutralizing controversy. Since gay hater Christians suck so bad at mediating, I guess we really are done with Chick-Fil-A.

  22. Clementine says

    I am gay AND a Christian. They are not mutually exclusive, and neither of these aspects of my life, together or apart, make me evil.

    As a Christian, I have had numerous crises of faith based on the words and/or actions of those (like Huckabee, the Cathys, Focus on the Family, et al) who proclaim that their take on Christianity is the only true one; that they are the only “good” Christians. Were this to be true, there would be only one church, with no denominations. These zealots do not speak for all Christians, just as those who post here do not speak for all homosexuals.

    I gave up meat a few of months ago, and had been fiercely craving a Chick-Fil-A sandwich up until I read Cathy’s statement. Over forty years ago, one of the highlights of Christmas shopping at Greenbriar Mall was meeting up with mom at the end the day for a sandwich and a Sprite at the original Chick-Fil-A location. I have loved that combination ever since, but nevermore.

    I will never set foot inside another Cathy-owned business again. Were my mom still alive, she would feel the same way (and she could thump a bible with the best of them). It is not because of their espousal of Christian values, but because their values system includes the belief that “some” people are unworthy of a place at the table of equality; as well as their financial and outspoken support of organizations that seemingly place a higher value on spewing hatred and disdain in the name of God (no matter how gently it be spewed, Mr. Huckabee) than spreading love and compassion in the name of Jesus.

    If Huckabee wants to know against whom Jesus would be intolerant, he need look no further than Matthew 21.

  23. Dale says

    Good. Let the fat fundies eat that crap to their black hearts’ content – the faster to the grave the better.

  24. Darren in atl says

    Everybody! Go to Chik-whatever and order something from drive through. As they hand it to you and you ahve given them your money, realize that they don’t like you and ask to have your order canceled and money returned. Clog those drive-thru lines up and let Mr. Huckster wait in line . . . . for forever.

  25. Mike says

    He is an antigay Christian supremacist who is stirring up other Christians to hate gays.

  26. Gregoire says

    I love that America’s Fattest Christian is leading the charge! It’s almost like an Onion headline.

  27. Gregoire says

    We shouldn’t judge Huckabee. His fat fingers are so greased with chicken juice and bits of fried breading that he is unable to turn the pages of the Bible.

  28. Desiderius says

    Biblical marriage means that a man can have any number of wives and concubines. And that if a woman marries for the first time and is found not to be a virgin, she can be put to death. So I really don’t think we have Biblical marriage or even want it.

  29. simon says

    There is nothing wrong with religion itself. The main problem is some preachers like this idiot who base his arguments on a book called Bible on which there are ample evidence not written by Moses, John, Luke etc, It is full of forgeries and blasphemies. He is most likely a fraud who says these things for material gains.

    Mike Huckabee. Loser. Failure. He will do anything and say anything just to keep himself in the spotlight.

    Too bad the world has moved on and left him behind……who is going to be the one to break the news to him ?

  31. Robert K. says

    I don’t recall any efforts to close down Huckabee’s church or burn his Bible or imprison him for his beliefs, so until that happens he’s just an ignorant, stupid, paranoid hick.

  32. Char says

    I don’t want to hurt anyone’s feelings but I guess I just always thought God made sex for having children. I don’t think he intended for us to try and have sex with people of our own gender. It just is not something I think God intended at all. With His help maybe you can overcome the urges to have sex with your own gender, just like he will help anyone who is struggling with something against his will. I struggle with wanting to have an affair with someone, but I know it is wrong . God helps me be strong everyday when I pray. God helps me be true to my husband, and not to sin against His will. If it gets too hard for me to handle on my own I will get some help from Christian counselors. God will help you too. I pray that God helps with what ever you are struggling with.

  33. Gregv says

    @Char: the world is at present overpopulated, so if sex were only for making babies, then no one should be having sex with anyone. Your suggestions seems to mean that you never use birth control methods, so if that’s the case and you are still having sex, you could easily do more than your share to exacerbate this problem.

    Many people see sex as a way of sharing intimacy with a partner. When done safely, it is also a physical release without which health can worsen.

    I don’t have any struggle about whether or not to have an affair, because I know that would hurt my relationship with my partner. That is your own struggle.
    I also have no struggle over having a male-male relationship, because it hurts no one and is a source of blessings in my life.

  34. Mike says

    Tomorrow I will drive thru and order over $100.00 worth of their crappy food. When I reach the drive up window I will applogize that I “don’t have my wallet”, praise Jesus and simply drive away. While they hold bags of food they can’t re-sell to anyone. Peace up.

  35. Susan DePalmo says

    What a load of crap, its over move on… Leberal gays need to find something else to cry about now. Chik Fil A is a hero and remember that whole free speech thing works both ways. Are you kidding me National Kissing the same sex day, who would even want to eat after seeing that? Please put it to rest. Jeez srd

  36. Susan DePalmo says

    @Char Amen sister, you said that with much more restraint and patience for these people than I did. Glad to see there is someone else on the conservative side of this issue bothering to check both sides of this story. Honestly, hey are talking about pulling up and ordering $100 worth of food and not paying, calling a 91 yr. old man terrible hateful names and disrespecting our governor, Mr. Huckabee. For what, they are calling them haters, what do they hate? I just wish they would educate themselves and practice tolerance as they preach. Pray b/4 you speak and you will be using Gods’ word, yes, judgement is coming but it is not by anyone here on earth and if you are not worried about your soul you should be.

ME telecom sector growth 'to continue'

Dubai , September 9, 2007

The strong growth in telecom industry in the Middle East and Africa region should continue, with mobile device volumes expected to more than double from 2006 to 2010, said Nokia president and CEO Olli-Pekka Kallasvuo.

“We estimate that the Middle East and Africa region may have the highest growth rate in industry device volumes over the next three to four years,” Kallasvuo said during the official opening of Nokia’s new regional office in Dubai.

The official opening was also attended by Abdullatif Al Mulla, CEO of Tecom Investments, a subsidiary of Dubai Holding.

Kallasvuo said Nokia expects the number of subscriptions in the region to double from 2006 to 2010.

“We have forecasted a global market of 4 billion subscriptions in 2010, up from the current level of just over 3 billion. And we expect that nearly a quarter of the increase in subscriptions will come from this region,” he said.

“This is quite an achievement, and it reflects the region’s ongoing success in expanding its local and regional economies.”

In his first visit to Dubai as CEO, Kallasvuo reinforced Nokia’s commitment to the region.

“The Middle East and Africa are critical markets for Nokia, and we expect strong economic growth to continue,” he said. “We plan to strengthen our operations by reaching further into rural communities to bring mobile communications to more people.”

Nokia expects the region’s industry device volumes to more than double by 2010 from the estimated over 100 million devices sold in 2006.

Timo Toikkanen, senior vice president of customer and market operations for Nokia Middle East and Africa, said Nokia’s success in the region has been due in part to “knowing our customers and providing solutions that specifically suit their needs.”

“For example, we have just launched our new regional applications that will coincide with the Holy month of Ramadan. The applications have been especially designed to aid in prayer and worship throughout the Holy month, with options like the Azkar and Ramadaniat, full of useful information and advice to users.”

Nokia’s mobile device volume in the region increased nearly 37 per cent year-over-year in the second quarter.

Kallasvuo also met with Nokia employees who run its operations for the Gulf, Levant, Iran, Pakistan and Africa from the Dubai office, which serves as the company’s Middle East headquarters. In a speech to the staff and media, Kallasvuo officially declared the new office open.

He noted that Nokia has been part of Dubai’s business community for more than 13 years, and that the company’s history in the region spans more than five decades, dating back to when Nokia’s primary business was producing wire cable. He said Dubai was an ideal location for Nokia’s regional office.

“Dubai has become one of the leading commercial centers in the world,” he said. “It is blazing a trail in technological and commercial development. State-of-the-art infrastructure and a world-class business environment mean that this great city is the logical place to do business and harness the new opportunities that are emerging across this region.”

Later during his visit, Kallasvuo praised the work of UAE’s leaders in creating a strong communications infrastructure, and their commitment to aiding the telecommunication industry to benefit both businesses and individuals.

“In a country like the UAE, where business is thriving, the need for connectivity is obvious,” he said. “The government’s efforts in providing the impetus and backing this vital industry is having a very positive impact.”-TradeArabia News Service

Oman entities to take part in Gitex

Muscat, October 10, 2013

Key Oman entities are set to take part in the Gitex Technology Week, with the aim to boost its opportunities in regional and international arenas.

The event will take place from October 20 to 24 at the Dubai World Trade Centre.

The sultanate’s participation comes under ‘eOman,’ comprising the Information Technology Authority (ITA), Knowledge Oasis Muscat (KOM) and a number of government entities, besides private companies specialised in the ICT field.

The earmarked space at the exhibition will be divided into two sections – one dedicated to government institutions and the other to private sector entities.

"The Sultanate’s participation at Gitex 2013, which comes under the umbrella of eOman, aspires to identify brand-new global developments triggered in the field of ICT. We strive through our participation to achieve a number of objectives, notably to attract investment, promote SMEs, and spotlight a number of successful models of e-Projects in the public and private sectors," said Dr Salim bin Sultan Al Ruzaiqi, CEO of ITA.

"ITA will highlight its pioneering e-Projects, which comprise National e-Payment Gateway, the official e-Government services portal, National Technology Business Entrepreneurship (SAS), and Oman National Computer Emergency Readiness Team (OCERT). Other government institutions taking part in the event include Ministry of Tourism, Ministry of Commerce and Industry, Ministry of Manpower, and Public Authority for Consumer Protection,” said Dr Al Ruzaiqi.

Mohamed bin Hamad Al Maskari, director general of KOM, said: "We aim to enhance the marketing campaign of KOM as Oman’s flagship technology park. KOM officials will introduce to leading investors, experts, specialists and those interested in the ICT field, the vision and mission of KOM.”

"At Gitex 2013, KOM seeks to attract investment, and entice private institutions and entrepreneurs through the promotion of investment fundamentals and opportunities. Moreover, we will promote the facility building, which will provide a variety of services such as shopping centre, banks, restaurants, multi-purpose hall, hotel rooms and office space, expected to be completed soon."

Other local companies to take part include Infoline, Infocomm, the National Business Centre and Public Establishment for Industrial Estates’ (PEIE) IT department. - TradeArabia News Service

Emirates expands European Tour portfolio

London, December 18, 2013

Dubai-based Emirates has extended its deal with the European Tour for an additional ten tournaments until the end of the 2017 season.

The carrier will also assume the status of ‘Official Airline’ of the European Tour, it said in a statement.

Nigel Hopkins, executive VP service departments, Emirates Group, said: “Golf is one of the most popular sports in the world, and as a global sponsorship platform it has been immensely successful for us."

Emirates’ increased investment in the European Tour is a natural move which will expand our global reach to golf enthusiasts across Europe, Asia, Africa and Australia, he noted.

George O’Grady, chief executive officer of the European Tour, said this increased investment will not only enhance the tour’s widespread geographical footprint but also the development of its business in new markets across the world.

Along with its existing nine European Tour golf events culminating to the DP World Tour Championship in Dubai, Emirates will add an additional ten tournaments to its international schedule, as part of the agreement, including the BMW PGA Championship, the Nordea Masters, the D+D Real Czech Masters, the Aberdeen Asset Management Scottish Open, the Portugal Masters, the Italian Open, the Joburg Open, the South Africa Open Championship, the Nelson Mandela Championship and Perth International.

The European Tour’s ‘Virtual Eye,’ an animated graphics system that provides real-time positioning and information about player performance and statistics, will provide Emirates additional brand visibility and year round exposure at 20 tournaments delivered through live television broadcasts, the European Tour’s website and mobile platforms, added O’Grady. - TradeArabia News Service

For Sale: TNF North Face APOGEE tent, 4-person, 4 season

10:07 p.m. on September 29, 2008 (EDT)
0 reviewer rep
2 forum posts

Hi everyone,

I have placed for sale my North Face APOGEE tent. This is a single-wall 4-season tent, which can accommodate 4 persons. It was produced in the late 1990's, with MSRP $1000 then. It was considered a specialist tent, and was not even listed on the North face catalogues then.

The floor dimensions are 100x77x48 inches, and the built-in vestibule adds further generous room for gear storage. The 5 internal poles make set-up very quick, while the 4 vents allow control of ventilation. The tent fabric itself is waterproof and breathable.

Photos of this tent are on the eBay site. One pole has a joint which is a little bent, but this does not affect functionality of the pole. The tent is clean, and has no stains, rips, tears, stains, odors and smells.

I am selling it because my work obligations make it unlikely I would be able to go for long hiking and climbing trips from now on.

I have started bids at $500, which is reasonable for a tent of this calibre. Bidding ends just after midnight PDT on Oct 2nd. To avoid potential confusion of bidding for the same item on multiple sites, plus that I am not able to pull out of the eBay sale withing 24hrs of bid closure, bidding on the ebay site is probably the most straightforward option.

'Lost and Found' named to 2009 Golden Canon

List comprised of books judged "most valuable" to church leaders

Nashville, Tenn 2/18/2010 03:30 AM GMT (TransWorldNews)

"Lost and Found: The Younger Unchurched and the Churches that Reach Them" has been named to the 2009 Golden Canon, Leadership journal’s annual list of the 10 books most valuable to church leaders.

"Lost and Found," co-authored by Ed Stetzer, LifeWay Research director; Jason Hayes, young adult ministry specialist at LifeWay; and Richie Stanley, team leader at the North American Mission Board’s Center of Missional Research, explores the data drawn from multiple surveys, polls and face-to-face interviews with unchurched individuals. The book provides commentary that puts the results of that research in context and also examines the methods of several churches that are successfully reaching young adults. "Lost and Found" was published by B&H Publishing Group.

"We’re thankful for ‘Lost and Found’ being recognized on the Golden Canon list," Stetzer said. "This book focuses on a very important issue facing the current church and the church of the next generation. Young adults are both current and future leaders of our churches. It’s critical that we understand who they are, what they think and how we might engage them for the cause of Christ.

"‘Lost and Found’ was written with the hope that the conversations we had and the research we conducted, as well as our collective experiences doing ministry among young adults, would help church leaders better understand ways to impact this unchurched, but not unspiritual, generation."

Winners of the Golden Canon Leadership Book Awards are selected by a group of more than 100 pastors and leaders, including contributing editors for Leadership. Winners are selected in two categories: The Leader’s Inner Life and The Leader’s Outer Life, under which "Lost and Found" was named.

Restaurants in Portugal

A place to see-and-be-seen, the Alcantara Cafe, in the neighborhood of the same name, is housed in a 600-year-old timber warehouse that was formerly a printing factory.

Housed in a brick, 19th-century cable car depot overlooking the Tagus River, the Kais restaurant has retained much of its warehouse style, with high ceilings, ironwork, and modern wooden tables, chairs, and curved black-top bars.

At this casual steak house the water laps right up to your table.

The tiles of the Pastelaria-Padaria Sao Roque claim it is the "Cathedral of Bread", but the bakery also serves up delicious sweets and savories as well.

The restaurant features modern interiors (Saarinen chairs; graphic wallpaper) and whisper-thin carpaccios.

Its name refers to a traditional cilantro-rich bread-and-shellfish stew, just one example of the Portuguese soul food this minimalist restaurant serves. It’s also one of the best places to get an eyeful of the city’s fashion-world elite.

For traditional Portuguese cuisine, this favorite on a wee street off the main drag, serves fresh grilled Portuguese river trout stuffed with bacon.

Order a traditional Portuguese dinner of grilled fish with fresh vegetables.

Senhor Vinho, in Lapa, is owned by well-known fadista Maria da Fe; as such, it is an ideal restaurant for hearing Lisbon's unique fado music. The "Portuguese blues", popular since the 1820's, consists of mournful ballads about loss, painful love, and life's difficulties.

Regional dishes are served on the patio, which has views of the Aquapura hotel’s vineyards.Lunch for two $125.

Hobnob with impeccably turned-out locals over thin-crust pizzas. The space manages to feel intimate despite its warehouse-like dimensions.

Little India has nowhere near the range of decent accommodation offered by neighbouring Chinatown. But the area does have a handful of good options, and is convenient for both sightseeing and public transport.

Brickfields is one of KL's oldest and most characterful neighbourhoods, located next to the city's busiest transport hub, KL Sentral. A burst of great new affordable hotels over recent years, has transformed the area's once seedy accommodation scene.

Pudu once had a rather bad reputation, but this has improved markedly over recent years. A cluster of decent options, to the rear of Berjaya Times Square, makes for a decent accommodation alternative to neighbouring Bukit Bintang.

This is undoubtedly one of the most convenient areas to stay in the city, but while it has numerous accommodation options, they are all at the high end of the market.

Gyongy Laky: Environmental Artist

We loved her sculptural titles for the New York Times magazine, and just had to find out more about this artist who works in natural materials and has been around for a long time... It turns out that Gyongy Laky lives and works in San Francisco, and is an environmentalist and political activist--how appropriate for a Labour Day post. She uses natural and agricultural materials as well as recycled bits in her work which includes both large-scale sculptural and smaller, textile oriented pieces. The creation of words made out of branches and pieces of wood has long been a theme in her work. She shapes nails, twigs and wire to make them. In the past she has made a statement with words such as a cent sign, yes, no, pax. For the Times article, she created words out of natural materials to make a green statement: act, invent, eat. As she says: "Natural materials are very expressive they also connect me to nature which is a deep love of mine." Her work is very hands-on and labour intensive, as can be seen in the little video.

Another series comprises sculpture; these pieces are large and monumental. One is a stack of wood logs around a tree. Another is a large wheel in a field made of branches. The vessel series is the most accessible; it consists of bowls and vases made out of sculptural twigs. :: Gyongy Laky

Could also be Roddenberry's insistance that starfleet (some how) was not a military organization.

Kirk was the captain, also his job position. McCoy was doctor, his job position. Scott was refer to simply as engineer many times. At least Spock was never called number one.

And how would Spock have handled that old british military tradition.

Re: Star Ship Polaris

FWIW my original plan for the lander capsule was to have a null gravity tube run along its central axis. When docked, the two landers' tubes would latch on to the main null gravity tube running along the axis of the ship, and entering the landers would be as simple as leaving the tube to enter any of the decks.

Hi Charles. Good observation, the direction at which the cannon is pointed indeed doesn't look quite right. But it makes for an interesting photo and a good device to point the viewer's attention towards the red-roofed tower. Good contrast and vivid colors. I might have tried to step a bit further to the left and then have a stronger diagonal of the cannon pointing at the tower - or shoot from a lower angle for some further dramatization - but your version is also good. Have a nice weekend.

Made by photographer and graphic artist Kirill Rudenko, this quirky commodity can be purchased from the Cooperativ Etsy shop. After paying just $10, one is endowed with the essence of Old Town Square, Wenceslas Square, Charles Bridge, Prague Castle, Lesser Town and Zlata Street in transparent gaseous form. Captured and tinned from these landmark metropolitan locations, the oxygen, nitrogen and carbon dioxide condensed within this 3.5-inch aluminum can coalesces to form something much more poetic than airborne chemical compounds. Canned Air from Prague is a great keepsake of the magnificent city, and a gentle hint of its atmosphere to those who've never visited. Stats for Urban Essence Branding Trending: Older & Warm

The Luxury Editorial for Vogue Italia Stars Gisele Bundchen

By: Amanda Greer - Published: • References: & huffingtonpost
The latest editorial for Vogue Italia starring supermodel Gisele Bundchen is a graphic beauty-critiquing photo series that leaves a lasting imprint on even the least fashion-interested person. Bundchen is shown in various beauty enhancing pursuits, each one more disturbing and painful looking than the last.

One picture in particular catches the eye. Bundchen is shown lying on a hospital bed while checking her phone. The skin on her face is scabby, red and irritated. The implication of this photo is that models and other people who use their looks as a means to create and sustain a career, have to undergo disturbing procedures to maintain that level of beauty. These procedures become so routine that the models and actors barely even notice them anymore.

Bundchen and the team at Vogue Italia are clearly trying to make a statement about beauty with the 'Luxury' editorial. By showing the disturbing behind-the-scenes procedures that are required to create beauty, they leave viewers with this question: Is it worth it?
