| MOHAWK - VICTIM JULIUS PALMER Williams College yearbook memorial photograph of victim Julius Palmer. Palmer, who seems to have been Karl Osterhout's closest friend in the Yucatan Expedition, was 22 years old in January 1935. He was an enthusiastic yachtsman, and had sailed his own boat in the Bristol Yacht Club race. One wonders about the diary in which he was writing the last time Osterhout reported seeing him. Since he was taking the time to record his impressions of the early stages of the disaster, it is safe to assume he carried the book with him when he left the cabin after Osterhout. 1935 reports do not say whether the diary was recovered with his body, nor do they say that the diary was preserved by his family if it was found.... |

| cnn.com | SEE (THE REAL) TITANIC FOR $60000 Everyone is familiar with the story, but very few are able to see the Titanic in real life -- unless they can shell out $60,000. Bluefish, a luxury concierge firm based in Los Angeles, first offered an expedition to the Titanic site at the bottom of the North Atlantic Sea to its private clients in 2002. The firm took only eight people to the site between 2002 and 2006. And after the recession put a stranglehold on luxury spending, Bluefish took an economy-induced hiatus. "The recession hit and everything went to pot," said Steve Sims, the concierge firm's founder. As the recovery slowly gains steam, trips to the Titanic are back on and Bluefish is now accepting bookings for 2012. ... |
