However, in this episode (part two of two), our host, Simon Majumdar, will look at the food served to second and first class passengers, which tells us about society and the way people ate at the time.

The museum covers the Titanic from its creation to discovery, utilizing detailed models, life-sized sets, digital screens, lighting design, sound, and artwork. There are more areas of the ship to explore than have been seen before, meant to make you feel as much as possible as if you are on the ship.
The lobby of the museum is modeled after the atrium of the Bradbury Building; three stories with bird-cage elevators. The main floor contains the ticket/information desk and gift shop. The balconies host a replica of the Cafe Parisien and Palm Courts for dining. Also accessible from the balconies is a bookshop, models of other famous ocean liners throughout history, and illustrated timelines detailing dates and facts of ocean liner travel.
Once leaving the shipyard from the second floor of the balcony, guests enter a room containing a large model of the finished Titanic. The lighting in the room is meant to simulate evening, and the ship is lit up. Around the room are various marketing materials for the ship, including advertisements, newspaper clippings, and prices for the passage. Also noted, and debunked, are various Titanic myths. At the other end of this room is a riveted wall, meant to give the impression of the side of the ship, where an open door leads guests into Titanic.
Hey guys I'm greg from Gold Coast Australia I also have another build log going and that's for the BLACK PEARL from hachette I bought this kit off a lady in Perth Australia who's husband had sadly past away a few years ago and she had collected all 100 issues every week for him but he was unable to start/ complete it it's copy righted 2001 so it's a good 13 years old all the issues are unopened except for issue 1 I am currently up to issue 8 and was wondering if anyone has done this partworks before if you have please feel free to help me with any tips or tricks as this TITANIC and the BLACK PEARL are both my 1st builds my girlfriend has been on my back for months now saying that I need a hobby and I saw the add on tv for the BLACK PEARL and so I thought I would give it ago I do know that the partworks are EXPENSIVE the BLACK PEARL. Is around $2,500 and the TITANIC was around $1,100 but I was able to pick it up for $350 I personally like the idea of having a magazine with every issue because you can learn a fair bit about what you are making as a example did you know that a first class ticket on the TITANIC would cost in today's money $100,00
As long as it's the original Tite Bond, water should work. Depending on how long it's been glued you may have to let it soak for a while. If you can get a wet rag or gauze or something up against the connection you want to de-bond, and keep it wet for a while, it should free up after a while.
Another thing that may work to break bond is vinegar Greg. soak a cloth in vinegar and apply it directly on glue. let it soak well in. then gently try to rock pieces apart. If it doesnt work repeat process but never force joint to much. try to separate it gradually between soaks.
Hey guys it's 11months since I last posted on this build log I've moved 2 hours away new job got back with the mrs a new baby on the way and started collecting the mallard and u96 uboat partworks witch I will start build logs for them soon and just received a full set of the endeavour partwork for $350 delivered
The Nautical Research Guild has published our world-renowned quarterly magazine, The Nautical Research Journal, since 1955. The pages of the Journal are full of articles by accomplished ship modelers who show you how they create those exquisite details on their models, and by maritime historians who show you the correct details to build. The Journal is available in both print and digital editions. Go to the NRG web site (www.thenrg.org) to download a complimentary digital copy of the Journal. The NRG also publishes plan sets, books and compilations of back issues of the Journal and the former Ships in Scale and Model Ship Builder magazines.
A bachelor, Emil enjoyed working with his brothers and traveled a great deal. In late January 1912, he went to Europe to visit his niece, Mrs. Irving Stern (Ruth, the daughter of his brother Arthur) and her husband in Italy. The trio traveled through Spain, Egypt, and Rome to Vevey, Switzerland, where they visited his sister, Sarah Brandeis Cohn. Sarah had been widowed less than a year.
A few days before I started writing this post, I saw an article in the Omaha World-Herald that the Brandeis Mansion, built in 1904 for Arthur Brandeis and his wife, Zerlina, has been fully restored and is enjoying a comeback with new owners. Christi has attended parties there in recent years. Omahans are pleased to see a happy piece of their past is still alive and well.
Thank you for some Omaha history. Brandeis was very important in my young and adult life. When I was 11 (1953), I got lost in the downtown store. A man in a suit approached. Asked if I was OK. Told him I lost my friend. He gave me a stick of gum, and reassured me that we will find her. We did. He was store security. Oh the good old days. Thanks again.
The second tidbit of info the ladies told me was that even though Titanic director James Cameron professes the characters Rose and Jack were not based on real people, there was a Joseph Dawson on the Titanic and he is buried right here at Fairlawn Cemetery on the outside line of graves.
I continue walking up the middle row, stopping to read each headstone. I can hear muffled voices of the tour group but they are far away. The ladies had said there are quite a few famous people buried at Fairlawn and their tour would be starting at the other end near the mass graves from the Halifax Explosion. They always finish at the Titanic site. I will have plenty of time here by myself.
I come across the headstone of Ernest Edwards Samuel Freeman, a chief deck steward. I read about him at the Maritime Museum of the Atlantic on my post RMS Titanic, Part 1. The plaque at the front states his headstone was dedicated by J. Bruce Ismay, the son of founder of the White Star Line. Ismay survived the sinking, but Ernest, who is said to have been a favourite employee, did not. The dedication says he remained at his post seeking to save others regardless of his own life and went down with the ship.
Another well done write! I really liked how you merged the two parts together. This episode of history has maintained such a long interest from people. I hope your shoulder injury recovery goes well.
Do story with bookends of present-day scene of wreck using submersibles inter-cut with memory of a survivor and re-created scenes of the night of the sinking. A crucible of human values under stress. A certainty of slowly impending doom (metaphor). Division of men doomed and women and children saved by custom of the times. Many dramatic moments of separation, heroism, and cowardice, civility versus animal aggression. Needs a mystery or driving plot element woven through with all this as background.
Apparently there is a superstition (perhaps more relevant to boats with sails) that depicting a boat sailing in the same direction as its flags and sails indicate it should be sailing is bad luck. Perhaps this is the digital equivalent of averting that superstition, applied to a boat that primarily uses an engine for propulsion?
The very banal story of the pretty girl having to marry an unlikable rich man, but instead falling in love with the poor young artist for me was just diminishing the real tragedy of the sinking of the Titanic,
For the Atari 800 family of computers the best PC emulator is Altirra, and on Android devices Colleen will do the trick. Both have gui interfaces to use though Colleen is particular on where you poke and prod on the screen to access stuff.
Griffin and David back on the mics with the Mother of Blankies for Part Two of this epic! Katey Rich and Baby Charlie had to leave early in the second part of this two-parter, but Emily Yoshida more than picks it up. Plus Producer Ben gets a microphone to use for two heightened moments.
With the "draw me like one of your French girls" scene, this was a formative thing for both Emily and David to see in 1997 in a theater. Who drew the actual drawings used in the movie? (And check out the fan fiction sketch of Griffin posing, courtesy of Producer Ben.) Jack and Rose sure say each other's names a lot in this script - which name gets said more? Speaking of names, what kind of a character name is Spicer Lovejoy?
Emily and Ben were both band kids, so the band going down with the ship was particularly affecting to them in different ways. At the end of the movie, what are the different ways to interpret the last couple of scenes, and why old Rose does what she does? There's one deleted scene that is particularly noteworthy - how thankful should we be that Cameron took that paprika off of the sandwich?
