Felucca Letter-CC - Google Docs
1/14/2019 Felucca Letter-CC - Google Docs January 14, 2019 Dear Blank, I just got back from an amazing trip to Egypt. I took sixty students along with me. Man, what a nightmare getting everyone a passport and the proper shots. We took a 747 out of SFO, that’s San Francisco International Airport, and the flight took over TWENTY hours, twelve to London, a four hour lay over, then another four hours to Cairo. When we finally got to our hotel we were so tired we didn’t notice how nice it actually was. We spent three nights in the Four Season Cairo at the Nile. What a spectacular hotel! The pool is amazing with four hot tubs and a swim up bar. Of course, Mrs. M and I couldn’t enjoy the bar, except for a soda, as we were traveling with 60 rambunctious sixth graders, but...maybe next time. Most incredible though was finally visiting all the sites I been teaching my students about for the past 28 years. Finally, I got to see Khufu’s Great Pyramid at Giza and the impressive monument to Ramses II at Abu Simbel. But, my two favorite sites are actually less wellknown. Both Hatshepsut’s temple at DayralBahri and Senusret’s White Chapel have amazing stories behind their construction. My favorite site was Hatshepsut's temple at DayralBahri. Hatshepsut was the first really powerful female pharaoh. She loved to be viewed as a man, and often wore a false beard, the symbol of divine kingship.

Make a Boat for the Nile
Make a boat for the Nile The Nile was Egypt’s highway. There weren’t any roads or bridges in Egypt so boats were used for transport. Everything including mummies could be carried in them. The first boats were made from reeds or papyrus and these were commonly used in the shallow marshy water. They were called feluccas. Here’s how to make a felucca just like the ancient Egyptians. Materials you need • One bunch of straw cut to 30 cm • Bamboo skewers lengths • Optional square of linen or canvas • String • Plasticine or modelling clay • Glue Method Step 1 Make up three bundles of straw to two centimetres thickness each. Tie each bundle separately at both ends. Cut one bundle in half so you have two 15 centimetre lengths. Tie the loose ends together. Place the shorter bundles firmly together and tie at the top and the bottom again. This will become the base of the boat. Step 2 Take the two long bundles and tie them together at one end. Wedge the shorter bundles between the longer ones, pushing them firmly together. Put ties across the boat at two centimetre intervals all the way to the end to hold securely. Step 3 Attach a string to one end of the boat, thread it through the middle tie and loop it around the other end. Pull the string to make your boat curve. Secure the other end when you have the shape you want. Make an oar by cutting a bamboo skewer in half and decorating with a blob of plasticine or modelling clay.

MEREKEELE NÕUKOJA Koosoleku teokiri nr 80 09.04.2013 Veeteede Amet Tallinn, Valge tn 4 Algus kell 14.00, lõpp 16.00 Osavõtjad: Malle Hunt, Peedu Kass, Uno Laur, Taidus Linikoja, Aado Luksepp, Ants Raud, Rein Raudsalu, Tauri Roosipuu, Madli Vitismann, Peeter Veegen, Ants Ärsis. Juhataja: Peedu Kass Kirjutaja: Malle Hunt 1. Mälestasime leinaseisakuga meie seast lahkunud nõukoja liiget Ain Eidastit. 2. Vastasime terminoloogi küsimustele. Pikem selgitus terminitele port ja harbour Peeter Veegen: Meil Tallinnas on "Port of Tallinn" administratiiv-juriidiline ettevõte, mille koosseisus mitu väiksemat sadamat, mida võime tõlkida "harbour" (Paljassaare Harbour, Old Harbour, Paldiski Harbour). Ajalooliselt on pigemini kujunenud nii, et Harbour on varjumis- ja seismise koht laevadele, millel võib olla erinevaid funktsioone (nt. Miinisadam, Lennusadam, Hüdrograafiasadam jne.) Ehk ka "Last harbour" - viimne varjupaik. Port on seevastu kauba käitlemise, lastimise-lossimise, reisijate teenendamise koht- teiste sõnadega ühendus maa ja mere vahel (ka arvutil on mitu "porti" ühenduseks maailmaga). Merekaubavedudel kasutame mõisted "Port of call", "Port of destination" Vene keelest leiame analoogiana gavanj = harbour, port = port Eesti keeles on meil mõlemal juhul sadam, nii et neid kattuvaid mõisteid võime kasutada nii ja naa, aga kontekstist lähtuvalt võiks siiski tõlkes ajaloolist tausta arvestada. Madli Vitismann: - "port" on enam ettevõte, terminalide kogum ja muu lastimisega seotu - sadamaettevõtted Port of Tallinn ja Ports of Stockholm (samuti mitut sadamat koondav ettevõte). Või Paldiski Northern Port kui omaette sadamaettevõte. - "harbour" on pigem sadam kui konkreetne sadamabassein, sildumiskoht jm, nt Old City harbour Tallinna Sadama koosseisus ja Kapellskär Stockholmi Sadamate koosseisus - nende kodulehel on rubriik "Ship in harbour" http://www.stockholmshamnar.se/en/ . Ka rootsi keeles on üks vaste sõnale "sadam" - "hamn".

Indian Boat Designs 3 PREFACE (to this re-issue) Fishing in India has a great antiquity, but very little documentation exists of the technical aspects in any of our ancient or medieval records and literature. It is only in colonial times that substantial documentation emerges on fishermen and their occupation. The role of the Madras Fisheries Department is the most significant in this. Set up in 1907 under Sir Fredrick Nicholson, its remarkable work in fisheries documentation will put to shame all our post-colonial efforts.

I SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION UNITED STATES NATIONAL MUSEUM Bulletin 127 CATALOGUE OF THE WATERCRAFT COLLECTION IN THE UNITED STATES NATIONAL MUSEUM COMPILED AND EDITED BY CARL W. MITMAN Curator, Divisions of Mineral and Mechanical Technology ;?rtyNc:*? tR^;# WASHINGTON GOVERNMENT PRINTING OFFICE 1923 ADVERTISEMENT. The .scientific publications of the United States National Museum consist of two series, the Proceedings and the Bulletins. The Proceedings^ the first volume of which was issued in 1878, are intended primarily as a medium for the publication of original and usually brief, papers based on the collections of the National Museum, presenting newly acquired facts in zoology, geology, and anthropology, including descriptions of new forms of animals and revisions of limited groups. One or two volumes are issued annu- ally and distributed to libraries and scientific organizations. A limited number of copies of each paper, in pamphlet form, is dis- tributed to specialists and others interested in the different subjects as soon as printed. The date of publication is recorded in the table of contents of the volume. The Bulletins^ the first of which was issued in 1875, consist of a series of separate publications comprising chiefly monographs of large zoological groups and other general systematic treatises (occa- sionally in several volumes), faunal works, reports of expeditions, and catalogues of type-specimens, special collections, etc. The majority of the volumes are octavos, but a quarto size has been adopted in a few instances in which large plates were regarded as indispensable. Since 1902 a series of octavo volumes containing papers relating to the botanical collections of the Museum, and known as the Con- trihutions from the National Herharium.^ has been published as bulletins.
