Downeast Denizen: April 2011
http://downeastdenizen.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
A view on life in coastal Maine. Monday, April 25, 2011. Census 2010: ethnicity in eastern Maine. There is more ethnic diversity in eastern Maine than there was 10 years ago, but that's not saying much. "White" people (presumably of European descent) still make up more than 90 percent its residents, as they do throughout Maine. To see some of the individual numbers from Hancock, Penobscot and Washington counties, check out this spreadsheet. Tuesday, April 12, 2011. I grew up in. But there's a lot of subt...

Downeast Denizen: January 2011
http://downeastdenizen.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
A view on life in coastal Maine. Monday, January 31, 2011. The CAT is out of the bay. The CAT is gone, and not just the ferry service between Yarmouth, N.S. and the Maine ports of Bar Harbor and Portland. The high-speed catamaran, which for months has been tied up to the Bay Ferries terminal in Bar Harbor, has disappeared - and Bay Ferries won't say where it went. Local criticism of the boat seemed to fade over the years as it avoided further high-profile mishaps and became a routine part of the seascape...

Downeast Denizen: December 2010
http://downeastdenizen.blogspot.com/2010_12_01_archive.html
A view on life in coastal Maine. Thursday, December 9, 2010. AP photo by Robert F. Bukaty. For anyone who has read previous media stories about RawFaith, today's sinking of the vessel. Off Nantucket will be recognized as the final chapter of the ship's tortuous history. If any vessel seemed doomed, this was the one - despite the determined optimism of its amateur builder and captain, George McKay. Focused on McKay's vision and devotion to the cause and on the boat's striking appearance. Focused on how Mc...

Downeast Denizen: Big Ships
http://downeastdenizen.blogspot.com/2011/09/big-ships.html
A view on life in coastal Maine. Monday, September 12, 2011. After being spotted off midcoast Maine. The ship Mirabella V, not surprisingly, has its own website. Among the "toys" listed on that site is a 29-foot Hinckley jetboat with a 400hp engine, which itself is considered a luxury yacht. Used Hinckley jetboats. For the ship, which was built over seven years and completed in 2004. To get a visual sense of its size, compare Mirabella with the more familiar Margaret Todd. Was spotted Sunday, Sept. 1...

Downeast Denizen: Miss Nomer
http://downeastdenizen.blogspot.com/2011/11/miss-nomer.html
A view on life in coastal Maine. Saturday, November 26, 2011. The Mount Desert Islander exposed the seedy underbelly of beauty pageants with a revealing item in its paper this week. Well, that might be an overstatement, but the newspaper published an article about the fact that "Miss Bar Harbor" Rani Williamson, who won the Miss Maine USA Pageant last weekend, isn't really from Bar Harbor. At all (Williamson is on the right in the photo above). After the BDN ran a story about the pageant. For those comfo...

Downeast Denizen: March 2011
http://downeastdenizen.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
A view on life in coastal Maine. Tuesday, March 29, 2011. Live Lobster, which plans to operate in Prospect Harbor (part of Gouldsboro) as Lobster Web LLC, last week inched closer to its goal of converting the former Stinson Seafood sardine cannery into a lobster processing plant when local selectmen cautiously agreed to endorse a grant for $400,000 in federal CDBG funds (see BDN story. With a change in state laws. That had restricted processing, and with a (resulting) new product. I don't know if the wom...
