Biopics like Dangal and CGI-laden epics like Baahubali emerged as transnational blockbusters grossing over $ 200 million each in early 21st century . Indian cinema found markets in over 90 countries where films from India are screened . The Indian government extended film delegations to foreign countries such as the United States of America and Japan while the country 's Film Producers Guild sent similar missions through Europe .   The provision of 100 % foreign direct investment has made the Indian film market attractive for foreign enterprises such as 20th Century Fox , Sony Pictures , Walt Disney Pictures and Warner Bros. .

Mina 's TV appearances in 1959 were the first for a female rock and roll singer in Italy . Her loud syncopated singing earned her the nickname Queen of Screamers . The public also labeled her the Tiger of Cremona for her wild gestures and body shakes . When she turned to light pop tunes , Mina 's chart-toppers in West Germany in 1962 and Japan in 1964 earned her the title of the best international artist in these countries .

Top Italian songwriters created material with large vocal ranges and unusual chord progressions to showcase her singing skills , particularly `` Brava '' by Bruno Canfora ( 1965 ) and the pseudo-serial `` Se telefonando '' by Ennio Morricone ( 1966 ) . The latter song was covered by several performers abroad .

neg: Italian Music Awards The Italian Music Awards were an accolade established in 2001 by the Federation of the Italian Music Industry to recognize the achievements in the Italian music business both by domestic and international artists .   The awards were given by an academy composed of 400 people , including music publishers , journalists , deejays , music producers , managers , retailers and consumers .

The fifth edition of the awards was initially scheduled to be held in the end of 2004 , but after being postponed in February 2004 and then in the Spring of 2004 , it was canceled due to the lack of a broadcast agreement with the Italian TV networks .   The gap left by the Italian Music Awards was later filled by the Wind Music Awards , established in 2007 .

neg: Grammy Award for Best New Artist The Grammy Award for Best New Artist has been awarded since 1959 . Years reflect the year in which the Grammy Awards were handed out , for records released in the previous year . The award was not presented in 1967 . The official guidelines are as follows : `` For a new artist who releases , during the Eligibility Year , the first recording which establishes the public identity of that artist . '' Note that this is not necessarily the first album released by an artist .   It is sometimes asserted , with varying degrees of sincerity , that winning the award is a curse , as several award winners ( particularly from the late 1970s and early 1980s ) were never able to duplicate the success they experienced in their debut year . This viewpoint was expressed by former Starland Vocal Band member Taffy Danoff in a 2002 interview for VH1 's 100 Greatest One Hit Wonders : `` We got two of the five Grammys -- one was Best New Artist . So that was basically the kiss of death and I feel sorry for everyone who 's gotten it since . ''   The category is also notable for being the only one of its kind in which a Grammy Award was vacated . This occurred in 1990 after it was revealed winners Milli Vanilli did not contribute their own vocals on their debut album . The award was revoked , but was not handed out to another artist .   Of the 54 awards presented in the category since its inception , the honor has been presented to 25 solo female artists , 18 duos or groups , and 11 solo male artists . Between 1997 and 2003 , all the winners were solo female artists . Also , from 1993 to 2005 , no winner was a solo male artist . In 2006 , John Legend broke this trend , which started with Marc Cohn in 1992 . Only four artists have won both Best New Artist and Album of the Year in the same year : Bob Newhart in 1961 , Christopher Cross in 1981 , Lauryn Hill in 1999 and Norah Jones in 2003 .   Of all the winners , only three have been country artists . In 1997 , LeAnn Rimes became the first country artist to win the award . She was followed by Carrie Underwood in 2007 and Zac Brown Band in 2010 . Additionally , 2017 marked the first time that two country artists were nominated in this category in the same year .   1984 marked the first time that all of the nominees were from outside of the United States ( Winner Culture Club , Eurythmics , and Musical Youth were from England , Big Country was from Scotland , and Men Without Hats were from Canada ) .

neg: From Elvis in Memphis From Elvis in Memphis is the fifteenth studio album by American rock and roll singer Elvis Presley , released on RCA Records . It was recorded at American Sound Studio in Memphis in January and February 1969 under the direction of producer Chips Moman and backed by its house band , informally known as `` The Memphis Boys '' . Following the success of Presley 's 1968 Christmas television special and its soundtrack , the album marked Presley 's return to non-soundtrack albums after the completion of his film contract with Paramount Pictures .   Presley 's entourage convinced him to leave the RCA studios and record this album at American Sound , a new Memphis studio at the peak of a hit-producing streak . The reason for going to Moman 's studio was for the soul sound of the house band , ` the Memphis Boys ' . The predominance of country songs among those recorded in these sessions gives them the feel of the `` country soul '' style . This impression is emphasized by the frequent use of the dobro in the arrangements . In any case , the Memphis Boys have a solidly southern soul sound .   From Elvis in Memphis was released in June 1969 to favorable reviews . The album peaked at number 13 on the Billboard 200 , number two on the country charts and number one in the United Kingdom , and its single `` In the Ghetto '' reached number three on the Billboard Hot 100 . The album was certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America in 1970 . In later years , it garnered further favorable reviews , while it was ranked number 190 on Rolling Stone magazine 's 2003 list of the 500 greatest albums of all time .

neg: Country Music Association The Country Music Association ( CMA ) was founded in 1958 in Nashville , Tennessee . It originally consisted of only 233 members and was the first trade organization formed to promote a music genre . The objectives of the organization are to guide and enhance the development of Country Music throughout the world ; to demonstrate it as a viable medium to advertisers , consumers , and media ; and to provide a unity of purpose for the Country Music industry . However the CMA may be best known to most country music fans for its annual Country Music Association Awards broadcast live on network television each fall ( usually October or November ) .   Initially , CMA 's Board of Directors included nine directors and five officers . Wesley Rose , president of Acuff-Rose Publishing , Inc. , served as CMA 's first chairman of the board . Broadcasting entrepreneur and executive Connie B. Gay was the founding president .   Originally there were nine individual membership categories .

CMA membership is composed of those persons or organizations that are involved in Country Music , directly and substantially .   The first CMA Awards ceremony was held in 1967 in Nashville . Sonny James and Bobbie Gentry hosted the event , which was not televised . The winner of the first `` Entertainer of the Year '' award was singer Eddy Arnold . `` Male Vocalist of the Year '' went to Jack Greene and `` Female Vocalist of the Year '' to Loretta Lynn .   In 1968 , Roy Rogers and Dale Evans hosted the awards , which were presented at the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville . ( The ceremony was filmed and televised on NBC a few weeks later . ) The first live telecast of the show was in 1969 .   Annual awards are given in the following twelve categories : Entertainer of the Year , Male Vocalist , Female Vocalist , New Artist of the Year ( formerly the Horizon Award ) , Vocal Group , Vocal Duo , Single , Album , Song , Music Event , Music Video , and Musician .   The CMA also gives a `` CMA Broadcast Award '' to country-formatted radio stations each year . Broadcast Awards are segmented based on market size , major market ( Arbitron Ranking 1 -- 25 ) , large market ( Arbitron Ranking 26 -- 50 ) , medium market ( Arbitron Ranking 51 -- 100 ) , and small market ( All other Markets ) . A single station can not win the award in consecutive years .   In honor of the association 's 50th anniversary , MCA Nashville released a song called `` Forever Country '' .

neg: Bad Girl (The Miracles song) `` Bad Girl '' is a 1959 doo-wop single by The Miracles . Issued locally on the Motown Records label , it was licensed to and issued nationally by Chess Records because the fledgling Motown Record Corporation did not , at that time , have national distribution . It was the first single released ( and the only one released by this group ) on the Motown label - all previous singles from the company ( and all following ones from the group ) were released on Motown 's Tamla label . Although The Miracles had charted regionally and on the R&B charts with several earlier songs , including `` Got a Job '' , `` I Cry '' , `` I Need a Change '' , and '' ( You Can ) Depend on Me '' , `` Bad Girl '' was their first national chart hit , reaching # 93 on the Billboard Hot 100 . Written by Miracles lead singer Smokey Robinson and Motown Records ' President and Founder Berry Gordy , `` Bad Girl '' is a sad , remorseful ballad about a young woman , whom Robinson , as the narrator , says `` was so good at the start '' , but who later in the song `` is breaking my heart '' . It is in the popular doo-wop style , as several of The Miracles ' songs were during the late 1950s . The record 's success , coupled with the distributor 's failure to pay Gordy and The Miracles properly for its sales , prompted Robinson to urge Gordy to `` go national '' with it , meaning that Motown should do its own national distribution of its songs , and eliminate the middleman , to ensure that all money from sales of its records would go directly to the label .   On the Motown/Universal DVD Smokey Robinson and The Miracles : The Definitive Performances 1963-1987 , Robinson and fellow Miracles Bobby Rogers and Pete Moore commented that the song 's success allowed the group to tour nationally for the first time , and to play New York 's legendary Apollo Theatre during the Ray Charles Show . The group was not ready for the appearance : it lacked performance experience and failed to produce professional big band arrangements to the satisfaction of theatre manager Honi Coles . Ray Charles intervened , took the group under his wing , and , with his band , created arrangements for their songs . Charles was one of the first to help them on their climb to eventual success .   `` Bad Girl '' has since become a doo-wop classic and was named one of the 100 Greatest Doo-Wop Songs of All Time by Doo Wop Nation . It appears on several Miracles ' compilations , including Greatest Hits from the Beginning . The song was also performed by the group on their final live album , 1957 -- 1972 . It has been covered by the Dazz Band and by Motown artist Mary Wells , whose version was called `` Bad Boy '' and appeared on her debut album , Bye Bye Baby I Do n't Want to Take a Chance .


query: Seattle's first major industry was logging.

pos: Seattle Seattle ( -LSB- siˈætəl -RSB- ) is a seaport city on the west coast of the United States and the seat of King County , Washington . With an estimated 704,352 residents , Seattle is the largest city in both the state of Washington and the Pacific Northwest region of North America . In July 2013 , it was the fastest-growing major city in the United States and remained in the Top 5 in May 2015 with an annual growth rate of 2.1 % . In July 2016 , Seattle was again the fastest-growing major U.S. city , with a 3.1 % annual growth rate . The city is situated on an isthmus between Puget Sound ( an inlet of the Pacific Ocean ) and Lake Washington , about 100 mi south of the Canada -- United States border . A major gateway for trade with Asia , Seattle is the fourth-largest port in North America in terms of container handling .   The Seattle area was previously inhabited by Native Americans for at least 4,000 years before the first permanent European settlers . Arthur A. Denny and his group of travelers , subsequently known as the Denny Party , arrived from Illinois via Portland , Oregon , on the schooner Exact at Alki Point on November 13 , 1851 . The settlement was moved to the eastern shore of Elliott Bay and named `` Seattle '' in 1852 , after Chief Si'ahl of the local Duwamish and Suquamish tribes .   Logging was Seattle 's first major industry , but by the late-19th century , the city had become a commercial and shipbuilding center as a gateway to Alaska during the Klondike Gold Rush . Growth after World War II was partially due to the local Boeing company , which established Seattle as a center for aircraft manufacturing . The Seattle area developed as a technology center beginning in the 1980s , with companies like Microsoft becoming established in the region . In 1994 , Internet retailer Amazon was founded in Seattle . The stream of new software , biotechnology , and Internet companies led to an economic revival , which increased the city 's population by almost 50,000 between 1990 and 2000 .   Seattle has a noteworthy musical history . From 1918 to 1951 , nearly two dozen jazz nightclubs existed along Jackson Street , from the current Chinatown / International District , to the Central District . The jazz scene developed the early careers of Ray Charles , Quincy Jones , Ernestine Anderson , and others . Seattle is also the birthplace of hip-hop sensation Neema , rock musician Jimi Hendrix , origin of the bands Nirvana , Pearl Jam , Soundgarden , Alice in Chains and the alternative rock subgenre grunge .

neg: David Swinson Maynard David Swinson `` Doc '' Maynard ( March 22 , 1808March 13 , 1873 ) was an American pioneer , doctor , and businessman . He was one of Seattle 's primary founders . He was an effective civic booster and , compared to other white settlers , a relative advocate of Native American rights . His friendship with Chief Seattle was important in the formation of the city of Seattle , and it was he who proposed the city be named for this important chief . Maynard was Seattle 's first doctor , merchant prince , second lawyer , Sub-Indian Agent , Justice of the Peace , and architect of the Point Elliott Treaty of 1855 .

neg: Lake Union Lake Union is a freshwater lake entirely within the Seattle , Washington city limits and a major portion of the Lake Washington Ship Canal . Its easternmost point is the Ship Canal Bridge , which carries Interstate 5 over the eastern arm of the lake and separates Lake Union from Portage Bay . Lake Union is the namesake of the neighborhoods located on its east and west shores : Eastlake and Westlake , respectively . The northern shore of the lake is home to Gas Works Park . Notable features of the southern portion of the lake -- collectively known as the South Lake Union district -- include Lake Union Park , Museum of History & Industry ( MOHAI ) , and the Center for Wooden Boats .   The George Washington Memorial `` Aurora '' Bridge carries State Route 99 over the western arm of Lake Union . The Aurora Bridge is so named because it carries Aurora Ave N down the western side of the lake . Lake Union 's westernmost point can be considered the Fremont Cut , which is located just east of the Aurora Bridge and is spanned by the Fremont Bridge . The Fremont Bridge carries Fremont Ave N between the neighborhoods of Fremont and Queen Anne and separates Lake Union from the rest of the Lake Washington Ship Canal to the west .

neg: Rustico Farm & Cellars Rustico Farm & Cellars is the location of a British Columbia , Canada heritage building . Originally a bunkhouse for 18 miners at the Sally Silver Mine above Beaverdell , British Columbia , it is believed the structure was constructed in the late 18th century as part of that mining company 's infrastructure .   John Tokias , a Hungarian immigrant to Canada , who worked as a locomotive driver near the village of Beaverdell discovered the building and gained permission to dismantle it and relocate it the Oliver , B.C. area , some 3 hours distant . Although he planned to contract the moving of the massive logs , local companies refused his request as the journey entailed moving the structure down a mountainside by truck and it was determined that the tight switchbacks on the mountain roads were too dangerous .   As Mr. Tokias was unable to move the massive logs in this traditional manner , he designed a small trailer , extended this trailer behind an old Volkswagen truck , and personally loaded and hauled the logs 2 or 3 at a time to the valley , then along the roads to a homestead site between the towns of Osoyoos BC ( on the Washington/US border ) and Oliver BC , a ranching , mining , agricultural town to the north . With his wife and two children he reconstructed the former mining bunkhouse on a mountainside overlooking the Oliver Valley facing southeast to Osoyoos Lake and the U.S.   As the cedar roof of the original structure was in such disrepair that it could not be moved , John Tokias cut sod strips from the valley and mountainside and created a complete `` desert crust '' covering for his building . On this roof he placed numerous wild animal bones , antlers , skulls etc. . Not only was this his unique creative expression but they served to help the sod pieces to knit together to form a very practical roofing solution . The roof attracted a wide variety of birdlife , some species rare to the South Okanagan BC area . Today the sod roof also displays a number of cacti and flowering desert plants and its insulation abilities allow the log structure to remain cool in the heat of the desert summer and with a minimal amount of heat generated from recycled wood pellets , comfortable in the freezing temperatures of winter .   Mr. Tokias , know locally as being somewhat eccentric , became a well-known wood carver , showing his works both in the community and afield . He collected all manner of mining artifacts and utilized many of his findings to establish , for his family 's purposes , a small vineyard where he planted Chancellor grapes ( French hybrid ) .   Over the years , while continuing to work as a locomotive driver at the nearby Kettle Valley Railway , he planted the remaining 10 acre with other grape varieties , the harvests sold to neighboring wineries that were beginning to develop in the Oliver/Osoyoos corridor .   Following John Tokias ' death his family continued to farm the land but eventually the property was sold . The purchaser further developed the vineyards and then built a small building to house a boutique winery operation . The winery was never operational and the property was resold to Bruce Fuller , a West Vancouver BC businessman .   The hand-hewn log , desert-crust sod-roofed former mining bunkhouse , is called a , `` rustico #Noun '' , an Italian word for an immigrant 's rough countryside lodging , and has provided the name for Rustico Farm & Cellars .   The current owners have revitalized the vineyards and have begun to graft over Cabernet Franc to replace the nearly 50-year-old Chancellor vines .   Bruce Fuller , Proprietor of Rustico Farm & Cellars is a passionate collector of Canadian and American `` old-west '' artifacts and has showcased a collection on the property . The sampling room located in the winery behind a western-style false-front is aptly called a tasting `` saloon '' and displays much of his ongoing collection and is a welcome site for visitors looking to travel back in the area 's ranching , mining and agricultural history . An integral part of his collection includes three authentic wagons : a canvas-covered prairie grain wagon , an operational chuck wagon and a 1902 Doctor 's Buggy ( runabout ) .

neg: Forestry in Canada The Canadian forestry industry is a major contributor to the Canadian economy . With 42 percent of the land acreage of Canada covered by forests , the country contains 10 percent of the world 's forested land , made up mostly of spruce , poplar and pine . Forests and forestry in Canada are managed by Natural Resources Canada and the Canadian Forest Service , in cooperation with several organizations which represent government officials , policy experts and numerous other stakeholders . Extensive deforestation by European settlers during the 18th and 19th centuries has been halted by more modern policies , and today less than 1 percent of Canada 's forests are affected by logging each year . Despite the low amount of land that is logged , Canada is the world 's second-largest exporter of forestry goods , and the industry contributes significantly to Canada 's surplus global balance of trade . Economic concerns related to forestry include greenhouse gas emissions , biotechnology , biological diversity and infestations of pests , such as the mountain pine beetle .

neg: Seattle process The Seattle process or Seattle way is a term stemming from the political procedure in Seattle and King County , and to a lesser extent other cities and the Washington state government . The term has no strict definition but refers to the pervasively slow process of dialogue , deliberation , participation , and municipal introspection before making any decision and the time it takes to enact any policy . An early definition came from a 1983 editorial in the Seattle Weekly , `` the usual Seattle process of seeking consensus through exhaustion . ''

neg: Pacific Fur Company The Pacific Fur Company ( PFC ) was an American fur trade venture wholly owned and funded by John Jacob Astor that functioned from 1810 to 1813 . It was based in the Pacific Northwest , an area contested over the decades between the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland , the Spanish Empire , the United States of America and the Russian Empire .   Management , clerks and fur trappers were sent both by land and by sea to the Pacific Coast in the Autumn of 1810 . The base of operations was constructed at the mouth of the Columbia River in 1811 , Fort Astoria ( present-day Astoria , Oregon ) . The destruction of the company vessel the Tonquin later that year off the shore of Vancouver Island took with it the majority of the annual trading goods . Commercial competition with the NWC began soon after the foundation of Fort Astoria . The Canadian competitors maintained several stations in the interior , primarily Spokane House , Kootanae House and Saleesh House . Fort Okanogan was also opened in 1811 , the first of several PFC posts created to counter these locations . The Overland Expedition faced military hostilities from several Indigenous cultures and later had an acute provision crisis leading to starvation . Despite losing men crossing the Great Plains and later at the Snake River , they arrived in groups throughout January and February 1812 at Fort Astoria .   A beneficial agreement with the Russian-American Company was also planned through the regular supply of provisions for posts in Russian America . This was planned in part to prevent the rival Montreal based North West Company ( NWC ) to gain a presence along the Pacific Coast , a prospect neither Russian colonial authorities nor Astor favored .   The lack of military protection during the War of 1812 forced the sale of PFC assets to the NWC . While the transactions were not finalized until 1814 , due to the distance from Fort Astoria to Montreal and New York City , the company was functionally defunct by 1813 . A party of Astorians returning overland to St. Louis in 1813 made the important discovery of the South Pass through the Rocky Mountains . This geographic feature would later be used by hundreds of thousands of settlers traveling over the Oregon , California , and Mormon routes , collectively called the Westward Expansion Trails . The emporium envisioned by Astor was a failure for a number of reasons , including the loss of two supply ships , the material difficulties of crossing the North American continent and competition from the North West Company . Historian Arthur S. Morton concluded that `` The misfortunes which befell the Pacific Fur Company were great , but such as might be expected at the initiation of an enterprise in a distant land whose difficulties and whose problems lay beyond the experience of the traders .

neg: Economy of Alaska The 2007 gross state product was $ 44.9 billion , 45th in the nation . Its per capita personal income for 2007 was $ 40,042 , ranking 15th in the nation . The state 's economy has been described by University of Alaska Anchorage economist Scott Goldsmith as a `` three-legged stool '' - with one leg being the petroleum and gas industry , the second leg being the federal government and the third leg being all other industries and services . Between 2004 and 2006 , the federal government was responsible for 135,000 Alaska jobs , the petroleum sector provided 110,000 jobs and all other industries and services combined for 122,000 jobs .   Alaska 's main export product after oil and natural gas is seafood , primarily salmon , cod , Pollock and crab .   Agriculture represents only a fraction of the Alaskan economy . Agricultural production is primarily for consumption within the state and includes nursery stock , dairy products , vegetables , and livestock .

neg: MV Westward MV Westward is an 86 ft motor yacht , `` arguably Seattle 's most famous motor yacht , '' originally constructed in 1924 by Ted Geary for inventor Campbell Church , Sr. , and currently owned by Hugh Reilly . Its home port is Seattle , Washington and it is listed on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places .   The Westward was modeled after a salmon cannery tender and constructed -- around a 1923 Atlas-Imperial diesel engine -- at the Martinolich Shipyard on Maury Island near Seattle . It was designed to travel the Inside Passage along the British Columbia coast to Alaska . Its construction marked a turning point in Geary 's career : previously he had built workboats ; from this time he built yachts .   In its early years , expeditions on the Westward were hunting expeditions , with `` a Norwegian whale gun shooting harpoons fitted with time fuse bombs , a 10-horse gasoline winch with thirty-six hundred feet -LSB- 1097 meters -RSB- of quarter-inch -LSB- 0.6 cm -RSB- plow steel cable as a fishing line , and all of the accessories for ` scrapping it out ' with fifty-ton -LSB- about 45 metric tonnes -RSB- whales '' . These expeditions were led by Church 's son Campbell Church , Jr. , who founded The Alaska Coast Hunting and Cruising Company . The Churches ended up owning numerous notable motor yachts . Besides the Westward were the Nooya , Deerleap , Caroline , Alarwee , Acania , Onawa , Malibu , Cadrew , Electra , Olympus , and Taconite . Campbell Jr. made extensive films of his journeys .   Among the many people who have traveled aboard the Westward are A. C. Gilbert , inventor of the Erector Set , George Eastman ( of Eastman Kodak ) , banker Paul Mellon , George Pabst of Pabst Brewing Company , investor E.F. Hutton and his wife Marjorie Merriweather Post , Walt Disney , John Wayne , Phil Harris , Fibber McGee & Molly and Amos & Andy .   During World War II , the Westward was pressed into military service . Don Gumpertz bought the Westward in 1967 and circumnavigated the globe in it in the 1970s . Current owner Hugh Reilly , once the owner of a fleet of fishing trawlers in the Alaska seafood industry ( coincidentally named Westward Trawlers ) , bought the Westward in 1993 . From 1997 to 2004 he returned it to its roots as a vessel for Alaska tourism ( minus the blood sports ) . He then put the boat through a major refitting before taking it on a two-year tour of the Pacific , from which he returned in early September 2008 . After a brief visit to Puget Sound , he took it down the West Coast to Mexico and then in May 2009 crossed for the South Pacific .   The Westwardis slated to make a trip along the Inside Passage in the spring of 2013 .   The Westward is still powered by its original 1923 Atlas-Imperial diesel engine . which provides 110 horsepower and gives her a cruising speed of eight knots . http://classicyacht.org/westward/?page_id=26

neg: George Anson Meigs George Anson Meigs ( February 4 , 1816 , Shelburne , Vermont -- March 3 , 1897 , in Seattle , Washington ) was a prominent entrepreneur , businessman and shipbuilder in Washington Territory .   He was the eighth child of Whiting Meigs and Charlotte ( Grennell ) Meigs . He received his common school education there and then ventured to Newark , New Jersey , Brooklyn , New York , Key West , Florida , Memphis , Tennessee and New Orleans , Louisiana . He ultimately went to California during the gold rush of 1849 , where he opened a lumber business in San Francisco .   In 1854 , Meigs purchased a lumber mill from J.J. Felt who had moved it from Appletree Cove , near the present city of Kingston , Washington to a new location at Port Madison , on Bainbridge Island .   Port Madison was founded by Meigs . Meigs enlarged and improved the mill and spent most of his time there , leaving the lumber yard in San Francisco to William H. Gawley . By 1858 , Meigs had developed a capacity at the mill of 15,000 board feet ( 35 m ³ ) per day and it soon ranked with the principal lumber producing plants on Puget Sound . In addition to the lumber mill , Meigs established a dairy farm near the middle of Bainbridge Island .   In 1858 , Meigs married Mary Elizabeth Tappan , daughter of Charles Ogden Tappan , in Boston , Massachusetts . The couple had two children , Lillie Charlotte Meigs ( 1859 -- 1927 ) and George Elroy Meigs ( 1861 -- 1870 ) .   Meigs later built the first brass and iron foundry in Washington Territory and a shipyard .  From his shipyard came the first full-rigged sailing ship ever built on the Pacific Coast , the Wildwood . Although there was an abundant supply of timber on the coast , the Pacific shipbuilding industry had been held back by the fact that Douglas fir , the principal timber source , was found to decay rapidly . Not until it was discovered that Douglas fir was durable if cut in the winter , seasoned and salted was any attempt made to construct ships of it . The Wildwood , at 1099 tons , was the first .   Meigs assisted in the construction of the University of Washington and served as one of its regents during the early 1860s .   On February 18 , 1861 , a boiler explosion made a wreck of Meigs ' Puget Sound mill . Five men were killed , and the cost of rebuilding just about broke Meigs . In 1864 , the mill burned once more and the loss was put at $ 100,000 . Again , Meigs rebuilt and enlarged the mill 's capacity . During the first six months of 1870 , running day and night , the mill cut and shipped 11,872,000 board feet ( 28,000 m ³ ) of lumber . Meigs ' fleet of ships had also expanded to 45,000 tons , including the Northern and Tidal Wave .   Meigs weathered business depressions and other problems , including his partner 's , William H. Gawley 's , speculation with funds taken from the company . Finally , by 1881 , financial and legal difficulties could not be overcome and the mill complex on Bainbridge Island was sold at a sheriff 's auction . Meigs spent the last years of life on his property at Port Madison .   On March 3 , 1897 , Meigs had gone to testify in a libel action in Seattle , Washington .  On his way back to the ship , which was to leave that night for Port Madison , Meigs disappeared .  His body was found the next morning on the deck of a freighter . The coroner 's jury held that Meigs had gotten lost in the dark and his death was accidental .

neg: Timber framing Timber framing and `` post-and-beam '' construction are methods of building with heavy timbers ( posts and beams ) rather than dimensional lumber such as 2x4s . Traditional timber framing is the method of creating structures using heavy squared-off and carefully fitted and joined timbers with joints secured by large wooden pegs ( larger versions of the mortise and tenon joints in furniture ) . It is commonplace in wooden buildings from the 19th century and earlier . The method comes from making things out of logs and tree trunks without modern high tech saws to cut lumber from the starting material stock . Hewing with broadaxes , adzes , and draw knives and using hand-powered braces and augers ( brace and bit ) and other laborious woodworking , artisans or framers could gradually assemble a building capable of bearing heavy weight without excessive use of interior space given over to vertical support posts . Since this building method has been used for thousands of years in many parts of the world , many styles of historic framing have developed . These styles are often categorized by the type of foundation , walls , how and where the beams intersect , the use of curved timbers , and the roof framing details . Three basic types of timber frames in English-speaking countries are the box frame , cruck frame , and aisled frame .

neg: Chief Seattle Chief Seattle ( c. 1786 -- June 7 , 1866 ) was a Suquamish Tribe ( Suquamish ) and Dkhw ` Duw ` Absh ( Duwamish ) chief . A prominent figure among his people , he pursued a path of accommodation to white settlers , forming a personal relationship with `` Doc '' Maynard . The city of Seattle , in the U.S. state of Washington , was named after him . A widely publicized speech arguing in favor of ecological responsibility and respect of Native Americans ' land rights had been attributed to him . However , what he actually said has been lost through translation and rewriting .   The name Seattle is an anglicization of the modern Duwamish conventional spelling Si'ahl , equivalent to the modern Lushootseed spelling siʔaɫ -LSB- ˈsiʔaːɬ -RSB- . He is also known as Sealth , Seathle , Seathl , or See-ahth .
