Extractions: New Hampshire dates its first European settlement as 1623. But explorers visited at least two decades before. Fisherman from Europe apparently inhabited the Isles of Shoals as early as 1600. And suddenly the life of New Hampshire coastal Natives changed for all time. Visitors crossed up and down New Hampshire's tiny coastline for centuries, perhaps for millennia, before the first foreign settlers arrived, but who, where and when? Stone markings in Hampton might be ancient Viking runes carved before Columbus stumbled upon the New World. Soon after Columbus, traffic along our shores increased steadily. Years before the Mayflower arrived in nearby Massachusetts, there were as many as 200 ships making the transatlantic trek each year. They came from Spain, France, Portugal, Denmark and from England. They were, for the most part, fishermen drawn to the incredibly fertile waters here, or trappers and loggers in search of America's vast untapped resources. But they made no permanent settlements, or if they did, left little evidence of their passage. Like Native Americans, early Seacoast visitors had a gentler touch, taking only what met their needs or filled their ships, then moving on.

Extractions: The "Remarkablest Isles" The nine rocky Isles of Shoals have played a larger role in history than their size implies. Because the surrounding cold, deep Atlantic waters yielded an abundant crop of large fish, the treeless Isles were an ideal stopping point for fishermen at first, historians assume, for Native Americans, then Vikings, certainly for Europeans of many nations. The first documented landings begin at the opening of the 17th century. Because they worked and traded, but did not "settle" in the New World, early fishing and trading outposts are not credited as the first New England settlements. Still, local tradition assigns the record to a group at Londoner's (now Lunging) Island from around 1615 to 1620. Today, with only one private home, the island is less populated than it was when the Separatists arrived at Plymouth Plantation. Explorer Captain John Smith even named the "remarkablest Isles" after himself. According to his 1614 map and account, fewer than two dozen men were able to hook 60.000 fish in a month. Of "Smythe Isles" and New England, he wrote, "...of all the foure parts of the world that I have yet seene not inhabited, could I have but means to transport a colonie, I would rather live here." However, when Smith was granted only these little shrubby islands in payment for all his years of service, the explorer was less than thrilled. He never did return to found his colony here.

Extractions: WRITER Thompson's 77 field journals and his Narrative, the memoirs of his western explorations, have provided detail for generations of historians. They record events of the fur trade at its period of greatest expansion. They describe landscapes long since altered by industry and settlement, and provide a glimpse, albeit one sided, of the Aboriginal peoples at the moment of contact with Europeans. Thompson's Narrative is one of the world's great travel books. SCIENTIFIC EXPLORER While he is best known for his trans-mountain explorations, Thompson spent 28 years exploring more than 90,000 kilometers (55,000 miles) of northwestern North America. More than just a fur trader, Thompson was a great surveyor disguised as an explorer. CARTOGRAPHER David Thompson was perhaps the world's foremost land geographer mapping 3.9 million square kilometers (1.5 million sq. mi.) of this continent. His maps fixed the positions of dozens of fur trading posts and many trade routes. Even the Lewis and Clark expedition made use of Thompson's maps. Meticulous in detail, Thompson's maps were in use until the 20th century. His geographic accomplishments includes mapping of the Columbia River from its source to its mouth; mapping sections of the new border between Canada and the United States; and surveying many of the townships of Ontario and Quebec.

Extractions: Index Biography Our web site, "Explorers of the Millennium," will provide students with a wealth of information about the most important explorers of the past thousand years in a simple, easy-to-use format. We included reports on nineteen explorers, chosen by members of our team. We organized the explorers on separate "Hall of Fame" and "Timeline" web pages, so that users can look for a particular explorer by name or by century. We have a links page to help students find other helpful Web sites that relate to the explorers selected. A quiz section gives visitors a chance to see what they know about some of our explorers. A feedback page invites visitors to submit their own nominations for our Explorers' Hall of Fame. We hope that a visit to "Explorers of the Millennium" will answer students' questions about explorers, lead them to new sources of information, and encourage them to think critically about which explorers were the "greatest" and why.

Extractions: Dictionaries: General Computing Medical Legal Encyclopedia Word: Word Starts with Ends with Definition June 7 is the 158th day of the year in the Gregorian calendar The Gregorian calendar is the calendar currently used in the Western world. A modification of the Julian calendar, it was first proposed by Neapolitan doctor Aloysius Lilius, and adopted by Pope Gregory XIII on February 24, 1582 (the document was dated 1581 on account of the pope starting the year in March). The Gregorian calendar was invented because the mean year in the Julian Calendar was a little too long, causing the Vernal equinox to slowly drift earlier in the calendar year. Click the link for more information. (159th in leap years A leap year (or intercalary year ) is a year containing an extra day or month in order to keep the calendar year in sync with an astronomical or seasonal year. Seasons and astronomical events do not repeat at an exact number of days, so a calendar which had the same number of days in each year would over time drift with respect to the event it was supposed to track. By occasionally inserting (or intercalating ) an additional day or month into the year, the drift can be corrected.

Extractions: History of Area Being Traveled Much of the mystic of this trip was the history of the route we canoed. Historic information about specific sites we pass on our trip are included in the Route webpage. References are on a separate page. The voyagers were hired labor that belonged to the period after 1763. They were used to transport furs from the Athabasca country in northern Saskatchewan to Montreal, a distance of about 3000 miles. This took about 5 months. The voyageur has been described as dressed in " a short shirt, a red woolen cap, a pair of deer skin leggins which reach from the ankles to a little above the knees, and are held up by a string secured to a belt about the waist, the azion ["breech cloth"] of the Indians, and a pair of deer skin moccasins without stockings on the feet. The thighs are left bare. This is the dress of voyageurs in summer and winter." Also included would be a blue capote, the inevitable pipe, a gaudy sash, and a gay beaded bag or pouch hung from the sash. The voyageurs averaged 5 ft. 6 in. tall, could regularly paddle 15 to 18 hours a day and could carry 200 to 450 pounds over portages "at a pace which made unburdened travelers pant for breath in their endeavor not be left behind". Another reference stated that his men "took the canoe out of the water, mended a breach in it, reloaded, cooked breakfast, shaved, washed, ate and re-embarked all in fifty seven minutes!". He further stated that " if he shall stop growing at about five feet four inches, and be gifted with a good voice, and lungs that never tire, he is considered as having been born under a most favourable star."

SIMON FRASER: More Than Just A University should venture. Every bend threatened new dangers perilous largest salmonspawningriver in the world. which fellow Norwester david thompson would later http://www3.bc.sympatico.ca/st_simons/cr9902.htm
Extractions: Many of us in the Seymour/Deep Cove area look out on the back of Simon Fraser University (SFU), and the Burnaby Mountain Water Tower and Telecommunications Control Centre that my father helped create. A large percentage of our University-bound young people from the North Shore attend SFU, which has now grown to over 20,000 students. SFU was named in 1963 by Leslie Peterson, the Provincial Minister of Education, because SFU overlooks the very river where Simon Fraser made his historic journey to the Pacific Coast. My earliest memory of SFU was walking through the beautiful new plazas in the 1960s, and then hearing about the student protests that paralyzed the university. One of the most puzzling demands of the students was that SFU be renamed Louie Riel University. What is it about Simon Fraser the Explorer that seems to both repel and attract people? Why is it that he is the least well known of all Canadian explorers? Descended from a well-known Scottish Highland family, the Lovat Frasers, Simon Jr. was the youngest son of Simon Fraser of Culbokie and Isabel Grant of Duldreggan. In September 1773 the family joined a celebrated migration of Highlanders who travelled to America on the SS Pearl to seek their fortunes in the New World. In 1775, the year before the birth of their ninth child Simon, the first shots in the American Revolution were fired. Simons Pro-British father was captured at the Battle of Bennington. Every time he and his older son refused to join the rebels, his wife was fined another farm animal. Simon Sr. died thirteen months later from harsh treatment as a prisoner in the Albany jail. Mrs. Fraser fled as a United Empire Loyalist with her family to Canada in 1784.
Mapping The Global Web Are we heading towards a new multipolar world? 141154. Hirst, Paul and Grahame thompson.1996. London Belhaven Press. Knoke, david and James H. Kuklinski. http://www.princeton.edu/~eszter/global/outline.html
Extractions: Motivation globaloney ?), but very much a real and significant phenomenon. Network analysis is perfectly suited to these types of questions and represents the best metaphor for the new global system (Castells 1996). Unlike other metatheoretical approaches, network analysis assumes a multipolar social world (Knoke and Kuklinski 1982). While most other methods consider hierarchical relationships in pyramidal forms, network analysis can define them in an infinite variety of geometric shapesprecisely what one may expect from a global web. Network analysis can tell us the relative density of global connections, the relative strength of ties between countries and regions, and the extent to which these have changed over the past two decades. The combination of various network data sets and analyses would allow us to link network position in a particular field (e.g. telecommunications) with that in another (e.g. migration). With longitudinal data, we could begin to explore the extent to which position in a particular network could explain or predict subsequent position in another. By adding non-network data such as economic growth rates, policy votes, or cultural trends, we could also test the explanatory power of network position in and of itself. These efforts would allow us to begin addressing some of the most important questions in contemporary social science: What are the relationships between political decisions and economic outcomes?
