USS Arizona: Preserving a War Memorial
Funded by NCPTT, Montana Public Television has produced a series of videos that highlights the nation's underwater archeological treasures and features the preservation work of the National Park Service Submerged Resources Center.
According to Ronald Tobias of Montana Public Television, The project came as a result of the realization that the Submerged Resources Center had been archiving images of the America's underwater parks for many years and that it was being under-utilized as a valuable internal resource. Since outreach is such an important part of our federal research mandate, Larry Murphy agreed to allow Montana Public Television access to the archives, and with the grant money awarded to us from NCPTT we were able to create a series of programs for public television about the work being done to preserve many of our country's treasures underwater.
As a result of NCPTT funding, six half-hour programs have been created that chronicle the work of the Submerged Resources Center's effort to save and preserve several important sites, including the USS Arizona in Hawaii, the B-29 Bomber at the bottom of Lake Mead, the Ellis Island ferry in New York harbor, and shipwrecks at Fort Jefferson and Biscayne National Park and at Yellowstone National Park and Glacier National Park. Public awareness of the Park Service's work to preserve our national heritage is an important part of the mission of the Park Service, and NCPTT's funding made these presentations possible. Without the support, the archive material would have slowly slumped its way toward oblivion.

Places to see in ( Tampa - USA )
Tampa is a city on Tampa Bay, along Florida’s Gulf Coast. A major business center, it’s also known for its museums and other cultural offerings. Busch Gardens is an African-themed amusement park with thrill rides and animal-viewing areas. The historic Ybor City neighborhood, developed by Cuban and Spanish cigar-factory workers at the turn of the 20th century, is a dining and nightlife destination.
Tampa is divided into five main districts fanning out from Downtown in the south-center between the Hillsborough River and Ybor Channel. West Tampa, once a separate city, lies across the Hillsborough River to the west of Downtown. South Tampa, a large residential area, extends south along the Interbay Peninsula. Historic Ybor City (sometimes considered a part of downtown) lies on the northeast side of downtown. East Tampa, the historically African-American side of the city, lies north of Ybor City. North Tampa forms the urban/suburban sprawl north of Busch Boulevard. A significant suburban area, often considered a part of Tampa, extends many miles to the northwest, north, and east of the city.
On first glance it may seem sprawling and businesslike, but Tampa is also home to a bunch of museums, parks and ambitious restaurants, many of which have popped up recently and brought the city dangerously close to becoming stylish. In the heart of downtown, the revitalized Riverwalk along the Hillsborough River glitters with contemporary architecture and scenic green spaces. Plus, between the zoo, the aquarium, the children's museums and the theme parks, families have enough top-shelf entertainment to last a week. By evening Ybor City's streets transform into southwest Florida's hottest bar and nightclub scene.
The Tampa Bay area was visited by many Spanish explorers, beginning with Panfilo de Narvaez in 1528. However, no long term permanent settlements were created until 1824 when the US federal government created a reservation for north Florida Seminole Indians. At the same time, the US created Fort Brooke to oversee the reservation as well as protect the strategic harbor.

FORT CAROLINE
During the sixteenth century, France was determined to expand its empire. Spain, the world's leading power, already had a foothold in the Americas, and France wanted a share of the riches the Spanish were gaining through trade and plunder. France's first attempt to stake a permanent claim in North America was at La Caroline, a settlement near the mouth of the St. Johns River in Florida.
At first, the settlement was to be a commercial venture, but religious conflict in France broadened the goals. The growing persecution of French Protestants (Huguenots) led their most powerful member, Admiral Gaspard de Coligny, to make a proposal to the crown: the colony could also be a refuge for Huguenots. An exploratory expedition, commanded by Jean Ribault, left France in February 1562. On this voyage, he erected a monument at the River of May (now known as the St. Johns River).
Permanent settlement of 200 soldiers and artisans began in 1564, led by Rene de Goulaine de Laudonniere, who had accompanied Ribault on the previous expedition. With help from the Timucua Indians, the colonists began building a village and fort on the river's south bank, naming the area La Caroline after their king, Charles IX.
Three hundred colonists left France to establish a permanent settlement in North America. Included were some of the leading families of France, wearing gilded armor and brightly colored clothes. Other representatives of French society included artisans to provide entertainment and produce drawings, and laborers to build the fort. The desire for permanency was illustrated by the inclusion of women, of whom at least four had husbands. Most were Huguenots, but there were also Catholics and agnostics. The colonists were seeking opportunity and freedom in a distant land.
French artist Jacques le Moyne de Morgues came with Laudonniere to Florida in 1564. His job was to paint images of the people, flora and fauna, and geography of this part of the New World. Le Moyne was one of the few who escaped from Fort de la Caroline when the Spanish attacked in 1565. He found refuge on a French boat, along with Laudonniere and several others, and returned to Europe, where he recreated from memory scenes of the New World.
In Florida, both Spain and France hoped to claim their piece of the new world. By the time the French planted their settlement at La Caroline, Spain was entrenched in South and Central America and its sea routes through the Caribbean were well established. Spanish ships bearing gold and silver from the mines of Mexico and Peru stopped at Havana before sailing for Spain. They rode the Gulf Stream through what is now the Straits of Florida and up the southeastern coast of North America. The Spanish were uneasy about a French settlement because their treasure ships, while they followed the Florida coast, could be easy prey for suspected French raiders in their nearby haven at La Caroline.
They be all naked and of goodly stature, mighty, faire and as well shapen...as any people in all the worlde, very gentill, curtious and of good nature... the men be of tawny color, hawke nosed and of a pleasant countenance...the women be well favored and modest...
French explorer Jean Ribault was impressed by the first native peoples he encountered in Florida. The Timucuans under Chief Saturiwa, who met the French at the mouth of the River of May in 1562, were one of a number of Timucua-speaking tribes who inhabited central and north Florida and southeastern Georgia. They were the final stage of a culture whose way of life had remained essentially unchanged for more than 1000 years.

Native Americans of Tampa Bay- The Tocobaga
Hermann Trappman and Elizabeth Neily have spent years discovering the first people of Florida. The images depicted here are inspired by archaeological materials and the incredible resources of the Tampa Bay Estuary. There's was a culture of city dwellers that traced their roots back into the millennia when mastodons and other giant critters roamed the great plains of ancient Florida well over 12,000 years ago. All that history is lost to us now, wiped out by the ignorance and greed of the European conquest. Diseases carried by Spanish soldiers swept through the countryside turning whole communities into ghost towns. This is a brief tribute to those ancient people.
First Friday by the Bay - Things to do in Palm Bay
First Friday By The Bay -
A Monthly Family Festival with Live Music, Food, and More is here! Finally, right here in Palm Bay, we will host a festival for the whole family. Look forward each month to live music from top name bands, food of all types, activities for the kids, all right by the Bay.
FREE to attend, the location will be at the corner of US1 and Palm Bay Road at the Palm Bay Chamber of Commerce located at 4100 Dixie Highway NE, Palm Bay, FL 32905.
The Florida city of Palm Bay is located in Brevard County, on the east Central Florida coast. The city is situated just 10 miles southwest of Melbourne, about 65 miles southeast of Orlando, and 180 miles north of Miami. Major highways near the city include Interstate I-95 and U.S. Route 192.
Palm Bay's modern history traces back to 1959, when the Mackle brothers from Miami purchased land for a local residential project. Although the project had its stops and starts, it spurred the growth of industry and population in the area, leading to the incorporation of the city of Palm Bay in 1960.
The city's first major industrial corporation, Radiation, Inc., later evolved into the Harris Corporation. Other industry soon followed, and the 1970's saw construction and expansion in the city. Palm Bay experienced enormous growth in the ensuing two decades, including the completion of a new municipal complex housing the city hall and police station. The city today continues to grow largely due to its proximity to the ocean and to other major areas of central and coastal Florida.
Things to See and Do in the Palm Bay Area
Palm Bay and the Brevard County area offer a choice of many sites for recreation, entertainment, and culture. The Wildlife Turkey Creek Sanctuary is home to many rare and endangered plants and animals. The Florida Tech Botanical Garden offers a 30-acre landscape of picturesque palms in numerous varieties. Anglers can find plenty of fishing at the Sebastian Inlet State Park, 20 minutes south of Palm Bay, where sport fishing can be done from private boats or on one of numerous charter fleets.
A lively arts community thrives in Brevard County, home to an abundance of talented artists, musicians and actors. The Maxwell C. King Center for the Performing Arts plays host to a variety of performing arts, including Broadway musicals, symphonies, opera, jazz, ballet, and comedy. Other area theatres include the Phoenix Theatre and the Melbourne Civic Theatre.
The Brevard Museum of Art & Science offers interactive children's exhibits as well as art classes throughout the year. Also located in the Brevard County area are the Margaret Homes Nature Center, the Titusville Historic Museum, the Brevard Museum of History and Natural Science, and the Air Force Space Museum. Fifty miles to the north is the Kennedy Space Center and Astronaut Hall of Fame, and 65 miles to the northwest is the city of Orlando, home to world class attractions such as Disney World, Universal Studios, and Sea World.

Adventure and Wildlife Hosted by the Shark Brothers - Episode 4
What does southwest Florida have in common with Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, diamond mines in South Africa, solar power and the agriculture and tourism industries? In this episode, the Shark Brothers explore that question and discover the answers in a story spanning more than a century on the Babcock Ranch Preserve in Punta Gorda, Florida.
A unique adventure experience offered by Babcock Ranch Eco-Tours takes visitors on a journey through this fascinating history and surrounding ecosystems. As part of the largest land conservation purchase in Florida's history, the Preserve is also the largest state-owned working cattle ranch where modern-day cowboys carry on with the kind of work that's been done for hundreds of years. This rich history of natural and cultural legacies, passed on through generations, is carried forward in America's first solar-powered town where development is balanced with the local environment here on the Charlotte Harbor Gulf Island Coast.

Number 7 Statue of Zeus
Around 435 BC, renowned Greek sculptor Phidias created a statue of Zeus that would be regarded as a wonder of the ancient world. The statue was made out of gold and ivory panels that were placed on a wooden framework. The cedar wood throne was decorated with ivory, ebony, gold and precious stones. Some historic sources claim it to have been so beautiful that “a single glimpse would make a man forget all his earthly troubles”. The details surrounding the destruction of the statue of Zeus are unknown.
Number 6 Senator Tree
At one point, Florida’s Senator Tree was the both the largest and the oldest bald cypress tree in the world. It was an estimated 3,500 years old. Native American people living in Central Florida once used the tree as a landmark. It stood 125 feet tall with a trunk diameter of 17.5 feet. It represented a frequent attraction for visitors ever since the 19th century, when most of the land surrounding it was swamp.
Number 5 Lighthouse of Alexandria
For a long time, the Lighthouse of Alexandria was one of the tallest man-made structures in the world. Its construction was commissioned by the first Ptolemy ruler of Egypt. The imposing 330-foot tall structure was completed during the reign of Ptolemy II Philadelphus, between 280 and 247 BC. It’s regarded as one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World and its construction cost about 26 tons of silver. A furnace at the top produced the light and the tower was mostly built with solid blocks of limestone. Only a stub remained of the former structure and it too disappeared during medieval times when a fort was built in its place. Some of the lighthouse ruins were rediscovered in 1994, on the floor of Alexandria’s Eastern Harbor. Then, in 2016, plans were initiated by the Egyptians to turn the submerged ruins of ancient Alexandria into an underwater museum. There’s also a proposition to include them on a World Heritage List of submerged cultural sites.
Number 4 Valetta Royal Opera House
The Royal Opera House was one of the most beautiful and iconic buildings in Valetta, Malta’s capital city. The classic design was completed by 1861 and the building opened its doors in 1866. Also known as the Royal Theatre, it had a seating capacity of 1,095 with 200 people standing. The Royal Opera House was subsequently restored and it opened its doors once more, in 1877, with a performance of Verdi’s “Aida”.
Number 3 Crystal Palace
London’s Crystal Palace was a true marvel of the 19th century. Originally built in Hyde Park, the structure was three times larger than St. Paul’s Cathedral. The enormous building was made out of cast-iron and plate-glass. It fact, it had the greatest area of glass ever seen in a building. Visitors marveled at its clear walls and ceilings, which didn’t require interior lighting. The Crystal Palace was built to house the Great Exhibition of 1851 and its displays of technology developed during the Industrial Revolution. More than 14,000 exhibitors from all-over the world gathered in the space, which measured close to one million square feet. It also had a length of 1,850 feet and an interior height of 128 feet. After the exhibition was over, the Crystal Palace was moved and rebuilt next to an affluent neighborhood in South London. It continued to house events and exhibitions but deteriorated with time. Building the palace cost about $21 million. But relocating cost approximately $168 million.
Number 2 Palmyra
Palmyra is one of the oldest cities in the world with archaeological finds dating back to the Neolithic. It was an important stop on the Silk Road and its inhabitants became renowned merchants. As the city grew in wealth, it saw a number of monumental construction projects. The Islamic State took control of Palmyra in 2015. They subsequently destroyed numerous historic landmarks, including the ancient Lion of At-lat statue, the 1st-century Temple of Baalshamin, the Temple of Bel, the Tower of Elahbel and the Monumental Arch.
Number 1 Notre-Dame de Paris
The Cathedral of Notre-Dame de Paris is one of the world’s most recognized landmarks and a celebrated example of French Gothic architecture. A symbol of the French nation, the cathedral welcomed about 12 million visitors every year, making it one of the most visited Parisian monuments. Its name translates as “Our Lady of Paris”. The cathedral’s cornerstone was laid in the spring of 1163 and it was largely complete by 1260. However, it underwent frequent modifications in the centuries that followed.
