Pacific islanders came from Asia. Far back in the history of the human race the ancestors of the natives living on islands in Polynesia, Melanesia, and Micronesia had their homes on the great Asiatic continent. The first inhabitants of Australia, Java, Borneo, and the Philippines also came from the Asiatic region. The route by which they came is marked out by islands, peninsulas, and straits. From the continent of Asia down along the Malay Peninsula to Sumatra, Java, Borneo, the Celebes, the Moluccas, and on to Papua and Australia it is possible to sail from island to island without going out of sight of land. The large islands are joined together by chains of small islands, and the passage from one to another is no more difficult or dangerous than to go from Maui to Lanai or from Oahu to Molokai. In good weather the crudest craft, even a log or a raft, might safely take the voyage. Pacific islands are far apartThe islands of Melanesia lying between Papua or New Guinea and Fiji are not

Call it superstitious or silly, many tall buildings do not have a 13th floor so Roky Erickson played on this idea giving birth to the first psychedelic rock group called the 13th Floor Elevators. Somebody should have told Roky not to name a band after such an bad luck omen, because after the release of their premiere album, the group was involved in a series of bad luck events and the murky annals of rock history bestowed the psychedelic crown on other bands of the time who mimicked the sound and ran with the success.

Montreal developers take a tried-and-true formula from housing market and apply it to commercial real estate. Ben Lipowitz used to look out from his seventh floor office in tony Westmount Square at a building across Ste. Catherine Street West and wonder why, given its prime location on the eastern edge of the City of Westmount and downtown Montreal, it was never fully rented. A few enquiries turned up the answer. Part of the building was occupied by a restaurant and there were concerns about cooking smells and noise. In 2005, the restaurant moved across the street, the building came up for sale and Mr. Lipowitz pounced.

Modern day photography dates back to the early 1800's. The word photography is derived from the Greeks; photos meaning light and graphein meaning to draw. The word was first used in 1839 by scientist Sir John FW Herschel to describe a method of recording images. That was 12 years after the first photograph was captured by Frenchman Louis Jacque Mande Daguerre, a
