Maine Offers Hot Deals This Fall
Enjoy Foliage In The Outdoor Adventure Capital Of The East
AUGUSTA, ME -- (INTERNET WIRE) -- The word is out: Maine is experiencing a banner foliage year. Experts say the summer's balmy heat, coupled with August's minimal rainfall, have heightened the colors this season, granting Maine the crisp, brilliant foliage that everyone longs for in a New England autumn.
To celebrate nature's glorious gift, the state's travel industry: hotels, motels, plus some restaurants and attractions are offering super hot deals for fall visitors. Some deals seem too good to be true, such as those of the elegant, turn-of-the century, Oakland House Seaside Resort (800-359-RELAX) tucked into the edge of the Blue Hill peninsula, in Brooksville. Oakland House has a range of packages that include free boat rides, a Culinary Getaway, three nights midweek for the price of two or five nights for the price of three.
The deals are everywhere in Maine, from wide-open Aroostook County to downtown Portland. For visitors, these hot deals and fabulous foliage form the perfect backdrop for the thrill of outdoor challenges in Maine, the Outdoor Adventure Capital of the East.
Adventures abound. It could be a hike, bike ride or a simple round or two of golf. The Sugarloaf Grand Summit Resort Hotel and Sugarloaf Inn (1-800- THE LOAF) are offering room rates at $49 per person, double occupancy, including breakfast and health club privileges.
In the Moosehead Lake region, one of the nation's prime foliage spots, visitors can relax at Evergreen Lodge in Greenville. Stay two or more nights, pay full price for the first night and half price each night after. Spend the day canoeing on Moosehead Lake, or hiking nearby. Few fall experiences are as breathtaking as the view from atop Mount Kineo.
Or carry your own canoe or kayak for a spontaneous paddle as you wander the looping roads of Maine's midcoast peninsulas. At the Revolutionary War-vintage Blue Skye Farm in Waldoboro (866-506-6254), overlooking a marsh trimmed with ruddy foliage, the second night is half-price and includes a lobster supper for two.
But if your idea of an outdoor adventure is the journey between mall and golf course, look into the ever-dramatic Cliff House (207-361-1000), just a few miles up from the outlets of Kittery. It's offering a three-night October package that includes a round of golf at two nearby courses, plus a lobster dinner.
For more than 150 other great deals tailored to this spectacular season, view the extensive list at www.visitmaine.com.
These hot deals coincide with the very start of Maine's foliage season, which is moving blissfully slow this year. According to the state's foliage website, www.mainefoliage.com, Aroostook County, Western Maine, Katahdin and Downeast are still at least a week away from peak color, while central and southern Maine are just beginning their journey to brilliance. To find out what the foliage is like and where, visit the website, or call Maine's foliage hotline at 800-777-0317.
With such a range of activity for the fall traveler, it pays to linger, taking advantage of such deals as Bridgton's Noble House B & B (888-237-4880). Two adults can stay for $99 a night, including a full country breakfast and complimentary wine and cheese upon arrival. Bridgton is on one of the state's suggested fall foliage driving tours, the Maples and Mountains loop. Drive north for a dramatic hike in Grafton Notch State Park, then head around to Lovell and Fryeburg where the sweep of scarlet, gold and green is mirrored in the stillness of a lake and accentuated by the quiet white of village steeples.
Other suggested driving loops are highlighted on the 'Hot Deals' section of the Maine Office of Tourism's web site, www.visitmaine.com. You'll find deals in each as you head deep into the heart of Maine, the Outdoor Adventure Capital of the East.

propecia information Catholic Pilgrimage to the 'Last House of the blessed Virgin'
icTurkey...one of the UK's leading special interest holiday company launches the Catholic Pilgrimage 2 - The last house of the Blessed Virgin Mary near Ephesus.
In the closing years of the nineteenth century, the Aegean coast of Turkey witnessed three of the greatest archaeological finds of all time. Two of these - the discovery of Ephesus and Troy - made international headlines overnight. The third, in 1881, was immediately enveloped in secrecy. It was kept a secret because nobody in the Vatican believed that an obscure French priest, following the equally obscure visions of a German nun and mystic, could possibly have found the actual house where the Virgin Mary spent her last years. Yet by the end of the century the evidence had become so compelling that scholars had pronounced the discovery authentic and Pope Leo XIII had declared the site a place of pilgrimage.
Today it is one of the holiest shrines in Christendom. Pope Paul VI and Pope John Paul II have both made special journeys there to worship, and over a million people visit every year. For Christians around the world, it has become quite simply the most important house on earth.
"this holy house is unique throughout the World" Pope Pius Xll

London, UK - BizCharter Ltd., a London based on-line travel company is launching its new website on 1st July 2001. BizCharter offers a unique travel service that differs from most travel sites in that it mainly caters to regular international travelers and those who use private jet charters.
BizCharter.co.uk will promote BizCharter skills in corporate and group travel. This revolutionary service has been created to provide significant savings on mainly long haul flights.
"I believe that we can offer a substantial cost saving to regular international flyers. Making clever use of the international agreements between co-operating countries and their carriers, BizCharter can show savings of up to 25 percent on the annual travel bill. When you take into account the amount of travel costs for the average medium-sized business, the savings can be considerable," says Marcus Poulton, Founder and Managing Director of BizCharter.
BizCharter.com will provide an online private jet booking service. The BizCharter airport location tool uses a 6.1 million record Gazetteer database, the user can search up to 16,200 large and small airports around the world and can select the nearest and most convenient departure and destination points. The site then calculates an estimate of the trip using ‘best fit’ technology to select an appropriate aircraft for the journey. The results can be saved as an itinerary for use in planning and can be used when making a booking eliminating the need to re-enter the flight details.
The site also provides a comprehensive database of private jet aircraft information as well as an ‘Empty Leg’ charter system, where uses can search for empty outbound or return flights. The Empty Leg system enables the charter operators to make extra revenue from their aircraft by offering discounted trips, making use of otherwise non-revenue flights.

National Trust For Historic Preservation Announces 2001 List Of America’s 11 Most Endangered Historic Places
WASHINGTON, DC -- (INTERNET WIRE) -- For more than 60 years, it’s been a monument to a day that lives in infamy. Yet Pearl Harbor’s Ford Island - where remnants of Japanese bomb craters are still visible - is now threatened by a massive development initiative.
In the nation’s capital, the home of the father of the African-American history movement sits abandoned and forgotten, an ironic legacy of a man who spent his life preserving history and culture. And throughout the nation, historic movie theaters go dark every day, leaving gaping holes on the once-vibrant main streets of America.
These are just three of the 11 sites the National Trust for Historic Preservation named yesterday to its 2001 list of America’s 11 Most Endangered Historic Places.
Each year, the National Trust identifies places throughout America to help bring home its message about endangered places. Last year, the National Trust called the country’s attention to the historical structures at Valley Forge; the art deco-inspired Santa Anita Racetrack; and the island of Nantucket, to name a few.
The National Trust is a private, nonprofit membership organization dedicated to protecting the irreplaceable. Some other places mentioned on this year’s list are the 1880 Bok Kai Temple in Marysville, CA; the country’s first "office campus" in Bloomfield, CT; and Colorado’s Telluride Valley, where a massive resort, including a large hotel complex, gondola, golf course, commercial space and housing, is planned for the valley floor.

Connecting Cruise Ship Passengers to the Far Reaches of The Last Frontier
(ARA) - Imagine sipping chilled wine or cappuccino as you watch the sun set and the sky burst into prisms of color over jagged mountain peaks topped with snow. Reclining in your lush, oversized seat as you begin your journey to Denali, passing through mountains and over rivers as you spot moose, caribou, dall sheep and grizzlies roam the wilderness. Disembarking for an overnight stay in the Talkeetna Lodge with a spectacular view of Mount McKinley in the distance. Doesn't sound like your typical cruise vacation, does it?
Shore excursions for Alaskan cruise ship passengers used to consist of being herded onto busses, driving to crowded tourist destinations nearby, snapping a few rolls of film and - if lucky - spotting a lone moose wandering through town or an eagle soaring overhead. Now, new travel opportunities enable passengers to go beyond the coastline and deep into the interior of Alaska's untamed wilderness on one of North America's truly great scenic railroads.
Formed last year by Royal Caribbean International and Celebrity Cruises, Royal Celebrity Tours' Alaskan Cruisetour programs allow passengers sailing on Gulf of Alaska cruise itineraries to design their own pre- or post-cruise land excursions, ranging from two to six nights, to places such as Alyseka, Denali, Talkeetna, Anchorage and Fairbanks.
Your journey into the heart of The Last Frontier begins in Seward, where you board Royal Celebrity Tour's Wilderness Express, the world's largest and most accessible double-decker glass-domed rail cars complete with open viewing platforms and ADA-compliant seating, allowing physically-challenged travelers to access both levels of the rail cars.
Unlike other cruise tours, Royal Celebrity Tours balances their itineraries to maximize viewing time onboard the railcars and exploring time outdoors. Cruisetour land packages run the gamut from relaxing to challenging. You can traverse an ice field, kayak past a spectacular glacier, hike deep into a national forest, roam free among majestic wildlife or marvel at Misty Fjords. There's also fishing, golfing, shopping, horseback riding, and whitewater rafting - the possibilities are endless.
To enrich the beautiful scenery, Cruisetours are escorted by expert Tour Directors, trained to guide you through every step of your adventure and offer unique insights on the flora and fauna, geology, native culture and history of Alaska. Don't forget to pack plenty of film, because without proof, your family and friends won't believe you when you tell them all the things you saw and did!
"We are thrilled to offer vacationers the opportunity to explore some of Alaska's most stunning and remote areas," explains Bob Stone, vice president of operations for Royal Celebrity Tours. "We are confident that our guests will enjoy our varied itineraries and the 360-degree views offered by our spacious, comfortable glass-domed railcars."
Royal Celebrity Tours' land-and-sea programs begin in May 2001. For additional information or to make reservations, call Royal Caribbean at (800) 327-6770 or Celebrity Cruises at (800) 437-3111, visit

Is the English Language Greek to You?
Don't Know "Caveat Emptor" from a "Cul-de-Sac"? New Dictionary Makes You a "Connoisseur" of Foreign Phrases
Do you ever feel like the English language you've spent a lifetime speaking is, well ... changing? If so, you're not alone. New words are added to the dictionary each year, challenging Mr. and Mrs. John Q. Public to keep up with those vocabulary wizards, the Joneses.
Foreign phrases, in particular, are entering our language at unprecedented speed via the Internet and other media. They're ushered in on newscasts and lifestyles pages, and as slang from the frontiers of film and fashion.
Most of us probably didn't blink an eye when the comedy sequel "Hot Shots! Part Deux" arrived in theaters in the early `90s. The title may have been tongue-in-cheek (and a little silly), but it didn't require any explanation to audiences who've grown accustomed to a foreign element in their pop culture.
As an integral part of our evolving global community, foreign phrases are becoming household terms faster than you can say "nouveau arrivé" (French for "new arrival"). But even if you flunked your high school German class, you can still add firepower to your linguistic arsenal and impress your friends by picking up the new World Dictionary of Foreign Expressions: A Resource for Readers and Writers.
Two decades in the making, the dictionary includes foreign phrases from over twenty languages -- including Spanish, Hindi, Chinese, German and Afrikaans. Neil Steinberg of the Chicago Sun Times notes that "...a quick scan provides intriguing expressions in language from Sanskirt to Yiddish. Not too quick, though, since almost every entry invites contemplation."
Indeed, many native-English speakers might be surprised to discover the source of some of the foreign phrases that have inundated everyday English. Did you know that words such as "index" and "recipe" were of Latin origin? How about guessing which language the word "taboo" comes from? If you guessed any of the romance languages, move your game piece back three spaces and make a mental note to visit Tahiti soon ("taboo" is Polynesian for" forbidden or not permitted, especially by religious or social beliefs").
Yet you may be surprised to discover how many foreign phrases and expressions you use every day, often to soften the blow of a word's true meaning. Euphemism -- substituting a less distasteful term -- is a popular reason for adopting the foreign. Pet owners do this when they "neuter" Fido, while similarly treated choir boys become "castrati" (the practice, "grace à dieu," is mercifully extinct).
Whether you're a traveler hoping to increase your worldly vocabulary, or a first year law student who can't quite put your finger on the multitude of Latin phrases coming up on the next exam, the World Dictionary of Foreign Expressions is sure to assist in your quest for a few "bon mots" (French for "a clever, witty saying or remark").
For more information on the new World Dictionary of Foreign Expressions, contact the book's publisher at:

The dictionary can be purchased at Barnes & Noble and Borders bookstores.
