  • Weekly Usually Results in the Rest of the Checkmates Carrying Their Disciple Off the Stage Leaving Many of the "Got To" Pilgrims, Talking to Themselves
    Week of August 29th, 1966 25CENTS Jon& Lee &The Checkmates Featured on National TVer Toronto: Sunday August 21st. was a big night for the Jon and Lee and The Checkmates fans who were holding their trauma meeting at The Avenue Road Club in The Village. This was the night the 'giant CBC corporation had set aside 30 minutes to spotlight one of Toronto's hottest rock and blues music groups, J L&C Ltd. The management of the club arranged for a giant TV screen and closed down the dancing activity so as to allow patrons to view their idols as stars of "Compass'. The production was a typical CBC arty effort and raw enough to be highly interesting. Glenn Sarty, CBC producer, used the candid camera technique to obtain his seemingly off the cuff situations. Jon and Lee as lead singers set the audience up for Jon's devastating evangelical solo blow that weekly usually results in the rest of The Checkmates carrying their disciple off the stage leaving many of the "got to" pilgrims, talking to themselves. Jon and Lee and The Checkmates Ltd. have attained international recognition the hard way. Volume 6, No. 1 Unlike many of the local groups who flip out poor quality records just to get a sound on wax, JL&C have been biding their time and looking the situation over carefully. They realize that their stage presentation would be difficult to reproduce on a disc and they would therefore suffer the rather ex- ROBERT J.

  • Sailing Comprises Wind Propulsion of a Craft by Means of Sails Or Other Airfoils and Steering It Over Water, Ice Or Land, Depending on the Type of Craft
    Sailing - Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sailing From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Sailing comprises wind propulsion of a craft by means of sails or other airfoils and steering it over water, ice or land, depending on the type of craft. A sailor manages the force of the wind on the sails by adjusting their angle with respect to the moving sailing craft and sometimes by adjusting the sail area. The force transmitted from the sails is resisted by forces from the hull, keel, and rudder of a sailing craft, by forces from skate runners for an iceboat, and by forces from wheels for a land sailing craft to allow steering a course on a point of sail with respect to the true wind. While there are still some places in the world where sail-powered passenger, fishing and trading vessels are used, these craft have become rarer as internal combustion engines have become economically viable in even the poorest and most remote areas. In most countries sailing is enjoyed as a recreational activity or as a sport. Recreational sailing or yachting can be divided into racing and cruising. Cruising can include extended offshore and ocean-crossing trips, coastal sailing within sight of land, and daysailing.

  • Seniors Interviewing Seniors
    New Horizons Project: Seniors Interviewing Seniors - Valuing and Sharing Rural Narratives Citation: New Horizons Project: Seniors Interviewing Seniors - Valuing and Sharing Rural Narratives (268 pp.) Mersey Tobeatic Research Institute, Kempt, Nova Scotia 2015 Printed on 100% post-consumer paper New Horizons Project: Seniors Interviewing Seniors - Valuing and Sharing Rural Narratives INTRODUCTION Seniors Interviewing Seniors: Valuing and Sharing Rural Narratives was a project co-ordinated by the Mersey Tobeatic Research Institute (MTRI) in the summer and fall of 201. The communtiy-based project of provided seniors an opportunity to preserve the oral history of western Annapolis County and Queens County. The goal was to reach out to seniors and involve them in interviews relevant to their past livelihood in terms of their skills, knowledge and experience on topics such as past land use, lifestyles, forestry practices, farming, wildlife, and concerns for the future. Through sharing their memories and anecdotes, local seniors provided a comprehensive overview of the past lifestyles, communities and biospheres of these counties. This historical knowledge and information is important to record as it is in danger of being lost as our population ages and it will help in understanding changes in land use, and vegetation and animal populations in southwestern Nova Scotia. The project also addressed concerns regarding the isolation of seniors by encouraging their social participation and inclusion. The participants felt respected and valued as their knowledge, observations and opinions were sought. The information that seniors shared gave valuable insights that MTRI and others with interests in the biosphere and history of the area can use in future research and initiatives.
