The 2009 Eskimo Escapades is scheduled for January 10, 2009 at Volunteer Landing. For more information, go to www.eskimoescapades.com or call the hotline at (865) 925-BRRR. Eskimo Escapades was formed by John Cox, David Bernheim, John Tillett, and Buddy Coomer and held its first event in 1995 at Ned Ray McWherter Park in Knoxville, TN on January 14, 1995. News Sentinel article about Eskimo Escapades It continued there the next year, and then in 1997, the event moved to its present location at Volunteer Landing in downtown Knoxville, TN. The first year at Volunteer Landing goes neck and neck with the 2003 event as the coldest on record. That year the water temperature was a particularly chilly 37 degrees and the air temperature high was 28 degrees. It was painfully cold and there was a big drop in the number of skiers, but the event still did well. 2003 was extremely cold again, with a high temperature of 27 degrees, recovery from a 3 inch snow on Thursday evening, and only 82 skiers. Community article Feb 2000 Even with the cold, snow, and drop in skiers, the event still raised $23,000 for its two local charities. The event continued to grow with a record 150 skiers in 2005. 2006 was the first year that BWXT Y-12 in Oak Ridge sponsored the whole event and in doing so was instrumental in bringing in a record $40,000. Thank you employees of Y-12 for being such great sponsors and good skiers! Below is a list of the 13 year skiers, volunteers and sponsors. If you know of...

I messed up QUITE a few times when I did this i was still learning to play and sing it at the same time and due to my co-ordination problems i messed up a few chords, strainde my voice a couple of times, messed up a couple lyrics and even skipped a brief interlude.. but what the hell, i had to post this cuz the picture that the Bob Dylan cover left up there was scary, it made me run and shower three times as soon as i saw it, lol. Same rules, critisism would be appreciated if its CONSTRUCTIVE, none of that "poo you suck" crap. maybe a "poo you suck because..." thats all good :P

CTR Review (Nov '08 issu). This construction game lets you drag-and-drop sticky blobs to construct structures that look a bit like carbon molecules. You quickly learn which structures work best to solve a particular problem. On one puzzle, you must construct the highest tower using the fewest possible parts. Another presents you with a spinning set of teeth that requires a curved structure.
There's a lot of different ways to solve the same problem, making this game addicting. Content includes 15 different varieties of blobs, each with different properties; enough to keep things interesting. Note that a Wii-Ware version is available, as a download. This is a fun way to introduce building dynamics to young science students. Created by 2D Boy (www.2dboy.com) for Brighter Minds Media.
