SUMMARY:Night of Terror: The Sinking of the Paddlewheel Steamship "Atlantic"

An Army paratrooper during the time of the Vietnam War\, Palmer is now one of New England’s leading authorities on underwater wrecks and has videotaped dozens of submarines\, U-boats\, and sunken vessels lost in East Coast waters. As owner-operator of the charter vessel Thunderfish out of R.I. and Mystic\, Conn.\, Captain Palmer has been diving since the late 1960s and knows the exact location of wrecks\, including those where there was a large loss of life\, such as the Metis and the Larchmont.

SUMMARY:Koekje\, Cooky\, or Cookie? A History of American Christmas Cookies
DESCRIPTION:Why do the Brits call them biscuits and we call them cookies? The answer lies in the 17th century Dutch colony of New Netherland. But cookies have a peculiar history. Once the purview only of the wealthy\, their flavors\, shapes\, and textures have changed over time. Influenced by changing technologies\, household labor\, slavery\, social status\, agricultural innovations\, and immigration\, cookies have become the standard American Christmastime treat. But how did we get there? In this illustrated lecture\, food historian Sarah Wassberg Johnson discusses the history of cookies in America\, Christmas traditions through the ages\, and why we eat so many cookies during the holiday season. \nThis is a Zoom program\, and may be joined by clicking the link below\, on Thursday\, December 8th at 7pm: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/86481557510 \n
