Talk:George Freeth

message: According to Simon Winchester in his book Pacific, Freeth was 'discovered' by Jack London in Hawaii. London wrote about Freeth in a variety of magazines and Freeth subsequently asked London for a letter of introduction and then proceeded to California. Henry Huntington then saw Freeth surfing off Venice Beach and hired him to surf at Redondo Beach to publicize Huntington's Redondo Hotel.

message: Article says: Fort Steilacoom was founded by the U.S. Army in 1849 near Lake Steilacoom and was the first military fortification north of the Columbia River in what was to become Washington state. But the US Army also built the "Vancouver Barracks" above Fort Vancouver in 1849. Also some sites like Fort Nisqually and Fort Vancouver itself long predate Fort Steilacoom, even if they were not exactly military sites they were in time used as such by the US.

Someone has anonymously added this twice now. All sources agree that the road is numbered starting from the east in Hilo, so it is the Hilo side (actually mp6 through 42) that have been redone. The western side is miles 42 to 53. I never drove it mysef, but this is totally consistent with my observations that Hilo is the power center on the island (the county seat, the federal building, mayors come from that side, etc.) If personal observation shows that all the state and US Military documents are lying, please go to the local press and break the scandal, do not try to make this claim here unless you can supply a verifiable source.

Talk:MYH16 gene

message: I think it's worth mentioning that the smallness of jaws and the largeness of brains may not be related.  The theory as I have usually heard it focuses on the width of the birth canal and claims that an unusually large-brained baby would have always been likely to have a troublesome birth up until the mutation for small jaws set in.  But baby chimpanzees do not have especially large jaws, and if the jaw is even the widest part of the fetal head, it is so by a small margin.  That is to say, humans and chimps develop differently with respect to jaw structure only long after birth, and the mutation for developing small jaws in itself would seem to have offered little additional space available for larger brains.
Could it be instead that the mutation happened by chance in a small isolated population, and then that caused humans to have trouble eating, so they had to learn to use fire to make their meat easier to chew?   Or maybe fire came first, and then large jaws became unnecessary.

Mordecai Brown Pitches Great Game
“Mordecai Brown, our Mordecai, whose career in the national league is watched with the closest interest by every fan in Parke county, pitched his greatest game of the year in Pittsburgh on Wednesday, shutting out the leaders in the National league race, 3 to 0. A telegram from Pittsburgh describing the game, says:
‘The game was Brown’s best of the year. The longer he pitched, the better he got, until towards the finish he actually had the Pirates throwing away their bats or hitting after the ball was in Kling’s hands. His speed was terrific, his command perfect, and his curve ball broke almost at right angles. No team on earth could have beaten him and the pitching feat fills out a record. Brown has now shut out Pittsburgh three straight times. 3 to 0, 2 to 0 and 3 to 0, and the Pirates have beaten him only once in three years, then 1 to 0 when Slagle dropped a fly ball last season and let the winning run score. After the game umpire Johnstone declared he never in his life saw such pitching and that Brown’s curve was so sharp and so fast that it fooled him repeatedly, causing him to call perfect strikes balls.’”
