Commodore Paul wears this bright blue wool blend sweater from Green Coast very well. The multi-coloured Coney Island shirt from Campione adds just the right amount of wow-factor to complete the look.

Among the earliest items to be donated to the US Naval Academy Lyceum is a musket recovered from HMS Guerrero. It was given to Commodore Joshua Barney by Commodore Isaac Hull.
The United States Naval Academy Museum, located at Preble Hall within the Academy campus, features two floors of exhibits about the development and role of the U.S. Navy, spread across area of 12,000 square feet with four galleries. The museum's history dates back to 1845, when it was founded as the Naval School Lyceum. In 1849, President James K. Polk directed the Navy's collection of historic flags be sent to the new Naval School at Annapolis for care and display, establishing one of the museum's oldest collections. The Naval Academy Lyceum of the 19th and early 20th centuries was located in several places around the Naval Academy Yard, before the construction of Preble Hall in 1939. From 2007–2008, Preble Hall underwent a complete renovation to turn the building into a modern museum, which officially reopened in the summer of 2009.
The United States Naval Academy, the second oldest of the five U.S. service academies, was established in 1845 by Secretary of the Navy George Bancroft to educate midshipmen for service in the officer corps of the United States Navy and United States Marine Core. Approximately 1,200 "plebes" enter the academy each summer. About 1,000 midshipmen graduate and commission each year. The 338-acre campus, known as the "Yard," is located on the former grounds of Fort Severn, and is home to many historic sites, buildings and monuments.

One of my most pleasing additions to my computing collection, a fully working Commodore 116, in very nice condition, only problem being was a black and white picture no matter what it was connected to, this was solved by adding a new TED chip.
Originally intended to supply Commodore with a cheap alternative to the C64, the 116 was the brainchild of Jack Tramiel, and brought to life by Bil Herd and his team.
Tramiel was convinced of the threat of cheap micros from the likes of Timex Sinclair.
Also there was anticipation of an influx of Japanese machines, which had of course happened with the home electronics market a few years before.
As it turned out, neither happened, leaving the machine with nowhere to go.
After a disastrous intervention by Commodore's marketing department, two machines came of the project, the Commodore 16 and the Commodore Plus 4, which only confused the market by competing them against their own C64.
