That's the really old UTS address. I moved all the building11.com lists over to starmanet.com over a year ago.

Going to Florida & Portland
by Effie in the desert 20 Jan '13

20 Jan '13

In February I'm going to Florida for a cruise and to visit Chuck. I ran across this article about the cruise I'll be on and though I'd pass it along. http://www.canberratimes.com.au/travel/activity/cruises/no-clothes-no-stres… I'll also be in Portland on Feb 2 for a bowling. I don't know if Todd and Bruce would be available for a visit sometime that weekend? Let me know. Effie

As I was poking around looking for something to do to while killing time at the Seattle airport, I ran across this. I had *no* idea it was there, nor do I know how long it's been there. http://livingcomputermuseum.org/ Looks quite interesting. Effie

FW: Top 10 Hubble Photos
by Chuck S 10 Dec '12

10 Dec '12

Way cool! From: Chuck S [mailto:chucksim@mindspring.com] Sent: Sunday, December 09, 2012 11:26 PM To: 'Nina M. Pan (nmp2(a)earthlink.net)' Subject: Top 10 Hubble Photos Astronauts voted on the top photographs taken by Hubble, in its 16-year journey so far. Remarking in the article from the Daily Mail, reporter Michael Hanlon says, "The photos illustrate that our universe is not only deeply strange, but also almost impossibly beautiful." The Sombrero Galaxy - 28 million light years from Earth - was voted best picture taken by the Hubble telescope. The dimensions of the galaxy, officially called M104, are as spectacular as its appearance. It has 800 billion suns and is 50,000 light years across. The Ant Nebula, a cloud of dust and gas whose technical name is Mz3, resembles an ant when observed using ground-based telescopes. The nebula lies within our galaxy between 3,000 and 6,000 light years from Earth. In third place is Nebula NGC 2392, called "Eskimo" because it looks like a face surrounded by a furry hood. The hood is, in fact, a ring of comet shaped objects flying away from a dying star. Eskimo is 5,000 light years from Earth. At four is the Cat's Eye Nebula. The Hourglass Nebula, 8,000 light years away, has a "pinched in the middle" look because the winds that shape it are weaker at the center. In sixth place is the Cone Nebula. The part pictured here is 2.5 light years in length (the equivalent of 23 million round trips to the Moon). The Perfect Storm, a small region in the Swan Nebula, 5,500 light years away, described as 'a bubbly ocean of hydrogen and small amounts of oxygen, sulphur and other elements'. Starry Night, so named because it reminded astronomers of the Van Gogh painting. It is a halo of light around a star in the Milky Way. The glowering eyes from 114 million light years away are the swirling cores of two merging galaxies called NGC 2207 and IC 2163 in the distant Canis Major constellation. The Trifid Nebula. A 'stellar nursery', 9,000 light years from here, it is where new stars are being born. The end....you have just seen the Top 10 Hubbel photos!!! Share with someone !!

The Lady on television
by Effie in the desert 28 Oct '12

28 Oct '12

As I watched the most recent episode of "Once Upon a Time" I became more and more certain the ship used for Captain Hook was the Lady Washington. Their web page confirmed it. It was nice to see her in action. E http://www.historicalseaport.org/
