This is the man who claims descent from the Goddess Venus herself. We watch his rise to power in Rome, his great adventures, his time in Gaul and finally, after he crosses the Rubicon, his war with Pompey that will leave him the most powerful man in the world. We see him as Venus joined with Cleopatra Isis. Here is your opportunity to ask the great man the questions of his time and how they relate to ours.

Your Hit Parade - America's Top Popular Songs
! |
|

The radio and television program "Your Hit Parade" chronicled American popular music from 1935 to 1959. Presenter Calvin Knickerbocker will outline the quarter century during which the show served as a "tastemaker," featuring songs inspired by the Great Depression and on to the advent of rock and roll. We'll explore the show's relationship with sponsor American Tobacco and Lucky Strike cigarettes and hear about the artists the show helped launch and promote, from Frank Sinatra to Pat Boone. Knickerbocker will treat you to excerpts from original recordings of the songs that "Your Hit Parade" showcased on its weekly Saturday night show, from one-hit wonders to classic numbers still familiar today. This program will take place at 7:00pm at the Upper Pemigewasset Historical Museum at 26 Church Street Lincoln NH 03251 and is free and open to the public.

! |
|
Lincoln, New Hampshire, February 7,
2010—Finding a new home on the east
coast the National Disabled Ski Hall
of Fame comes to New England
Disabled Sports at Loon Mountain.
The National Disabled Ski Hall of
Fame was created by the Disabled
Sports USA and the National Sports
Center for the Disabled in Winter
Park Colorado in 1995. For the past
15 years the hall has resided at
Winter Park Ski Resort and the
Colorado Ski Museum in Vail. The
hall was created to honor
individuals who have had an
influential role in disabled sports
as well as athletes who have
excelled in disabled sports. The
hall consists of famed pictures and
biographies of the inductees as well
as examples of adaptive equipment
used for skiing. The hall honors
achievements in adaptive sports over
the last 40 years.
“Disabled Sports USA and US Paralympics
are proud to have the National Disabled Ski
Hall of Fame housed at New England Disabled
Sports at Loon Mountain and the Franconia
Notch Area.”

Some Energy Advice For The
Winter ? |
|
1.
Here are some useful facts to keep in
mind: |
| |
The amount
of heat contained in a gallon of #2 fuel
oil is 139,000 BTU. |
| |
The amount
of heat contained in a gallon of
kerosene is 134,000 BTU. |
| |
The
amount of heat contained in a gallon of
propane is 91,600 BTU. |
| |
The
amount of heat contained in a
kilowatt-hour of electricity is 3,413
BTU. |
|
2.
To compare the cost of heat from a
gallon of fuel oil verses a gallon of
propane you need to multiply the cost of
the propane by 139,000/91,600 or 1.52. |
|
3.
To compare the cost of heat from a
gallon of fuel oil verses electricity
you need to divide the BTU's contained
in a gallon of fuel oil by the BTU's
contained in a kilowatt hour of
electricity then multiply by the cost of
a kilowatt hour of electricity, e.g.
143,000 / 3,413 X $0.18755 or $7.86 !
(NHEC price used.) Would you still like
to have an electric car? |

NOAA to estimate how much fuel you
