The Man in Seat Sixty-One...
Topic: Recreation 11:55 am EST, Jan  4, 2010

How to travel by train or ship...

Maybe you don't like flying, or are concerned about air travel's contribution to global warming. Or perhaps you just prefer real travel by train or ship, where the journey is part of the adventure... Either way, The Man in Seat Sixty-One will tell you how to travel overland comfortably & affordably where you might think that air was now the only option.

i've basically stopped flying. and you know why? cause it *used* to be a convenient, fun, and exciting experience. i suppose it is still exciting, but not in a good way. so this is a great site to browse and find the "other" means of travel (besides plane and automobile).

when will the bureaucracy of the TSA disappear? *sigh* probably never. i dream of the lighter less-safe travel days of yore.

Could this be the weekend Sunday Night Football goes dark?
Topic: Recreation 8:03 pm EDT, Oct  3, 2009

What’s an October Sunday night in America without NFL football? Fans could soon find out if NBC Universal doesn’t stop stiff arming their employees. NBC management has been way out of bounds – attacking good union jobs and blitzing working families. That’s why this Sunday when the Chargers play the Steelers, crew members may be forced to walk off the field – and that could leave millions of football fans scrambling.

IT’S TIME TO THROW THE FLAG AT NBC MANAGEMENT.
START TREATING WORKERS WITH FAIRNESS AND RESPECT.

Drift Japan � Drifting Technique � Drift Bible


Drifting
Topic: Recreation 11:07 am EDT, Sep  3, 2008

The popular and impressive art of drifting is controlled oversteer for dramatic effect using either rear or four wheel drive cars. There are many different methods of inducing oversteer, your choice depends on the properties of your vehicle. Once oversteer has been invoked, you'll need to control the drift using the throttle and the steering. To maintain an accurate line while going sideways is tricky, and will take lots of practice. Many different drifting track days are emerging such as the annual Autocar 'Sideways Challenge' where you can learn this art.

Drifting is fun for the whole family. Just don't practice on mom's merc

Weather observations and positions of ships at sea
Topic: Recreation 5:10 pm EDT, Apr  9, 2008

We primarily use data reported via the World Meteorological Organization's Voluntary Observing Ship (VOS) program to provide a snapshot of current weather conditions at sea, worldwide. This data can also be used to track the progress of ships at sea. Many ships do not report their weather observations to WMO, or report only sporadically; these ships will not have records in our database. Additional information comes from the YOTREPS network of cruising yachts; YOTREPS positions are updated only once per day.

This site tracks all (friendly) ships at sea... including freight liners.

Speciality of Amsterdam - Houseboats - Amsterdam Apartments
Topic: Recreation 1:20 pm EST, Nov 27, 2007

Amsterdam apartments and cosy houseboats. We directly confirm reservations
and respond to your questions (by email) within a few hours. We've made also
a selection of Charming and Luxury Hotels in Amsterdam.

This is a neat sight. At some point I'm gonna go visit .nl and http://www.houseboathotel.nl is a way for me to rent a boat instead of a hotel. They don't have just boats, but rent looks reasonable and it's definitely a unique way to travel.
