Frequently accessed sites are placed here such that I can access them from any service which I may using at the time. I hope that you find them useful as well.

This webpage will be looking kind of weird for a little while; I am using it to play around with Cascading Style Sheets (CSS).

PALM PILOT AND GPSLINKS

A new bunch of links, as I am looking into the possibility of using a Palm Pilot PDA, in conjunction with my Garmin GPS48, as a short-term track data storage facility to be used initially for three days offshore this coming Memorial Day weekend, for the Figawi Regatta. For some reason, I don't feel compelled to drag the PowerBook 5300 with me.

• http://members.aol.com/palmdirectory/programming/programming.htm - an intense collection of links for programming on and for the Palm devices.
• T.J.'s Palm Pilot Download Page
• LispMe - a Scheme compiler and runtime system running on the Pilot PDA. It is mainly intended to have a tool for quickly trying ideas and algorithms, but you can write dialog-based applications, too.
• SasEz! Palm Pilot Files
• GPS2PILOT2PC
• Navigation and the Palm Pilot
• Blue Hills Innovations - source of well-made Garmin to nearly anything cables, for both power and data. I have dealt with David Sorenson a number of times, and highly recommend their products.

LES OBLATS de MARIE IMMACULEE

• My great great aunt, Marie Anne Dorilla Catudal dit St-Jean, born 24 Sep 1883, in St. Césaire, Province of Québec, baptised there two days later, died 1936 in Granby, Le Haute-Yamaska, Province de Québec, may have belonged to this Order. We are not sure, but maybe someone can look it up somewhere.
• The Catholic Encyclopedia Online This website has a number of articles from it's hardcopy version, already transcribed. The encyclopedia article on the Oblats de Marie Immaculée has not yet been transcribed, if I can find a copy of it, I'll volunteer to type it.
