Going Ollywood: How A Modern Adirondack Sawmill Produces Old-Time Forest Products
A scientist turned sawyer named Ollie Burgess turns trees into rustic building materials in the northern Adirondack township of St. Armand. It's a bustling business, on one hand appearing straight out of the nineteenth century and on the other incorporating modern technology at every turn. Whether it's rough-sawn native lumber or a mortise-and-tenon-jointed cedar railing with the bark on, if it's on a delivery truck bound for a building site in the United States, it's likely point of origin was Burgess's Specialty Wood Products.

Smith Woods: Old Growth Forest Remnant in T-burg Walk in the Park 176
Join three authors of a new book about Smith Woods, an unusual old growth woodland in Trumansburg, NY, on an interpretive tour through the forest and its history and ecology, in this episode 176 of Walk in the Park. Trumansburg and Smith Woods are near Taughannock Falls State Park and are about ten miles from Ithaca, NY near the west shore of Cayuga Lake in New York's Finger Lakes region.
Old growth forests of this size are rare outside of the Adirondacks. This woodland has been extensively studied for decades by scientists from Cornell University. Smith Woods is owned and managed by Cayuga Nature Center and the Paleontological Research Institution in Ithaca, and is open to the public. It is used for education and research. Smith Woods is directly across the road from the Trumansburg Fairgrounds.
The guided tour through Smith Woods featured in this episode of Walk in the Park was presented by the History Center of Tompkins County. Marvin Pritts and Kurt Jordan of Cornell and S.K. List, historian for the Village of Trumansburg, led the tour. It was videotaped by Tony Ingraham, who is the producer of Walk in the Park, a weekly public access television series in Ithaca, NY.
Congaree National Park (One Of The Tallest Temperate Hardwood Forest In The World)
Congaree National Park (One Of The Tallest Temperate Hardwood Forest In The World) - Congaree is one of the least visited national park in the lower 48 in the National Park System. Congaree is known for its champion trees. It has approximately 25 documented champion trees in the park. However, they estimate there are around 11,000 big trees all over the 26,000 acre-national park.
The park preserves the largest tract of old growth bottomland hardwood forest left in the United States. The lush trees growing in its floodplain forest are some of the tallest in the Eastern United States, forming one of the highest temperate deciduous forest canopies remaining in the world. The Congaree River flows through the park. About 57 percent (15,000 acres or 61 square kilometers) of the park is designated wilderness area. - Wikipedia

Son of Hamas Tells Who Is Isa Almasih & Why Islam is Collapsing
About Father Son & Holy Spirit
Friends, a simple question.
Why you can't believe God?
If You can believe that God can made earth & heaven by simply saying words,
then why you can't believe that same God can present 3 places at a same time.
Didn't God have the power to do this?
Psalms 139:7-10 says Where can I go from your Spirit? Where can I flee from your presence?
If I go up to the heavens, you are there; if I make my bed in the depths, you are there.
If I rise on the wings of the dawn, if I settle on the far side of the sea,
even there your hand will guide me, your right hand will hold me fast.
Doesn't God have the power as Jesus in Earth & Father in Heaven & His Holy Spirit.
As you know God is everywhere.from the above verse.
We have Mind, Body and Soul.Do we tell we are three? No.
Genesis 1:26 says Then God said, Let us make man in our image, in our likeness
From the above verse we can understand God made human beings in His likeness.
As we can talk to our mind, God can talk each other, that's Jesus prayed to Father.
We are the creations of God, how much the Creator God can!!
Friends, i am writing to you with full of compassion please believe Jesus,
doubts are the creation of satan's job, don't fall in his trap.
Think from your heart.
Is the Bible just a collection of myths and legends, or is it the inspired word of God?
Many assume that modern scholarship has discredited the Bible,
but the facts of history — and the discoveries of archaeology — confirm its contents to be true!
The Bible recounts the past with amazing accuracy — and it predicts the future like no other book!
Most of the world has been misled and misinformed about the Bible.
You need to understand the truth — and how it can affect your life! Get it free from below link.

- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain

SUMMARY
=======
Apocalyptic and post-apocalyptic fiction is a subgenre of science fiction, science fantasy or horror in which the Earth's technological civilization is collapsing or has collapsed. The apocalypse event may be climatic, such as runaway climate change; natural, such as an impact event; man-made, such as nuclear holocaust or resource depletion; medical, such as a pandemic, whether natural or man-made; eschatological, such as the Last Judgment, Second Coming or Ragnarök; or imaginative, such as a zombie apocalypse, cybernetic revolt, technological singularity, dysgenics or alien invasion. The story may involve attempts to prevent an apocalypse event, deal with the impact and consequences of the event itself, or it may be post-apocalyptic, set after the event. The time frame may be immediately after the catastrophe, focusing on the travails or psychology of survivors, the way to maintain the human race alive and together as one, or considerably later, often including the theme that the existence of pre-catastrophe civilization has been forgotten (or mythologized). Post-apocalyptic stories often take place in a non-technological future world or a world where only scattered elements of society and technology remain.
Various ancient societies, including the Babylonian and Judaic, produced apocalyptic literature and mythology which dealt with the end of the world and of human society, such as the Epic of Gilgamesh, written c. 2000–1500 BC. Recognizable modern apocalyptic novels had existed since at least the first third of the 19th century, when Mary Shelley's The Last Man (1826) was published. However, this form of literature gained widespread popularity after World War II, when the possibility of global annihilation by nuclear weapons entered the public consciousness.

SUMMARY
=======
A typewriter is a mechanical or electromechanical machine for writing characters similar to those produced by printer's movable type. Typically, a typewriter has an array of keys, and pressing one causes a different single character to be produced on the paper, by causing a ribbon with dried ink to be struck against the paper by a type element similar to the sorts used in movable type letterpress printing. Commonly a separate type element (called a typebar) corresponds to each key, but the mechanism may also use a single type element (such as a typeball) with a different portion of it used for each possible character. At the end of the nineteenth century, the term typewriter was also applied to a person who used a typing machine.
The first commercial typewriters were introduced in 1874, but did not become common in offices until after the mid-1880s. The typewriter quickly became an indispensable tool for practically all writing other than personal handwritten correspondence. It was widely used by professional writers, in offices, and for business correspondence in private homes.
Notable typewriter manufacturers included E. Remington and Sons, IBM, Imperial Typewriter Company, Oliver Typewriter Company, Olivetti, Royal Typewriter Company, Smith Corona, Underwood Typewriter Company, Adler Typewriter Company and Olympia Werke.
