The four cardinal directions or cardinal points are the directions of north, east, south, and west, commonly denoted by their initials: N, E, S, W. East and west are at right angles to north and south, with east being in the clockwise direction of rotation from north and west being directly opposite east. Intermediate points between the four cardinal directions form the points of the compass. The intermediate (intercardinal, or ordinal) directions are northeast (NE), southeast (SE), southwest (SW), and northwest (NW). Further, the intermediate direction of every set of intercardinal and cardinal direction is called a secondary-intercardinal direction, the eight shortest points in the compass rose to the right, i.e. NNE, ENE, ESE, and so on.
To keep to a bearing is not, in general, the same as going in a straight direction along a great circle. Conversely, one can keep to a great circle and the bearing may change. Thus the bearing of a straight path crossing the North Pole changes abruptly at the Pole from North to South. When travelling East or West, it is only on the Equator that one can keep East or West and be going straight (without need to steer). Anywhere else, maintaining latitude requires a change in direction, requires steering. However, this change in direction becomes increasingly negligible as one moves to lower latitudes.

share link The first major winter storm of the season has blanketed the Northeast, bringing frigid temperatures, icy roads and power outages. Up to 60 million people are affected, and weather may impact holiday travel from Virginia all the way up to New England. NBC’s Blake McCoy reports from Syracuse, New York, and TODAY’s Al Roker forecasts what’s in store as Thanksgiving approaches. http://www.today.com/video/winter-storm-blankets-northeast-up-to-60-million-impacted-hear-the-holiday-forecast-814087747519 http://www.wochit.com This video was produced by YT Wochit News using http://wochit.com
The Native Americans Episode Two : The North East, Give and Take ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Eastern Woodlands was a cultural area of the indigenous people of North America. The Eastern Woodlands extended roughly from the Atlantic Ocean to the Rocky Mountains, and from the Great Lakes region to the Gulf of Mexico, which is now the eastern United States and Canada. The Plains Indians culture area is to the west; the Subarctic area to the north.
Without question swimbait fishing is exciting. No other technique focuses solely on targeting huge fish. And while on the west coast (specifically California) the approach is decades old, for those of us in other regions it is still catching on. As a northeast angler I wondered if all the information I was finding would pertain to me here. We all know the west coast as well as many southern states can produce bass significantly larger than those found in the northeast, midwest, and even mid-atlantic regions. So, fueled by both the desire to catch a new PB as well as conduct somewhat of an experiment, in 2015 I will be focusing on the swimbait technique and big lure philosophy to see if the same approach that works in the west and the south can work just as well here in the northeast. ...
We avoided RVing in the Northeast for years because of fears of the extra challenges. When we announced in March that we were spending this summer RVing in the northeast, we shared: “We know RVing up that way is much more expensive than we’re used to, more traffic, tighter roads, low clearance spots, pricey tolls, denser population and more crowded campgrounds.” Now having visited every state in the northeast this summer (Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey, Vermont, New Hampshire, Maine, Massachusetts, Connecticut and Rhode Island), what has the reality been? (Hint, not anything like we expected!!). In this video we share about RVing up this way and how we avoided most of challenges RVers speak of - from tools for planning out the tolls (we only spent about $45!), navigating low cle...
