Update at NRU
3 new articles....One on the painting. An "infrared" scan with some charcoal type markings underneath. And two on the Booster Club.

Tried layering the 'charcoal marks" on the painting over the map, and the only thing that I could come up with (and mind you I only just learned how to do this layering effect) is that the two marks in the middle that look like <> are around the word "THOM".

When you rotate the painting LEFT, the markings are pretty much over Angkor Thom, with the originally upper left (now lower left) mark, (-which is now L-shaped-) overlaying exactly on the lower corner of Angkor Thom.

How this figures into everything else, I don't know and possibly think it doesn't Confused

Ya know...when viewed from this angle there are also three capital LLL's (albeit not in the same line)

Well I'm thinking along the lines of...

Dr. Artemus St. Vincent, a Graduate Fellow at New River University has a Doctorate in Forensic Archaeology from the University of Cairo. His early career centered on Egyptology.

Haven't quite figured anything out (not that I think I ever will... Confused )
But have found things very similar to the charcoal markings in Egyptian runes.

Faculty and email addresses are back up.
Strange that when you click on Aerospace Engineering and then Faculty, it takes you to the Archeology Faculty page.

Edit: They have now fixed this and it will direct to the proper department.

Yoland Lake Luce

This is a repost of email received in reply to mail sent by Enaxor on the CD forum.

Here is the reply I received from Dr. Luce along with the original e-mail I sent
to her.


Being a somewhat serious genealogist, I've traced my family back quite a few generations
without finding a link. Lake is a family name and we have some Lakes around the middle
19th Century. Unfortunately, I have no idea from where Mr. Lake's family hails.

You may wish to contact Mr. Lake directly regarding the speaking engagement. I
have never personally met the man.

Sincerely,
Yolanda

Dear Dr.Yolanda Lake Luce:

I noticed that your maiden name is Lake. Are you any relation to Mr. Stephen Lake
of Landau, Luckman, and Lake? Is he perhaps your brother?

The school I attend is looking for a guest speaker for a dedication we will be
having sometime this spring and I understand that Mr. Lake was recently a guest speaker
at NRU. I am interested in getting some background information about Mr. Lake. The
information will be useful in determining if Mr. Lake is the appropriate choice as
our guest speaker.

Any information you provide will be handled with discretion, as well as
greatly appreciated.

Sincerely,

R. Enaxor


This was sent and received a few days ago.

Dear Mr./Ms. Cemgate,

It is truly wonderful that you are so excited about our new facilities but due
to increased security we have had to shorten the list of invitations to academic guests and government departments who contributed to the design, development, and construction of our 38 million dollar facility. I am terribly sorry but we hope to have tours for the facility available in the future.

Dr. Kristoff Zeladzny,

I would be extremely interested and excited to obtain an invitation to the
Grand Opening of the most advanced physics research center in the world.

Looking forward to hearing from you,

Sincerely,

cemgate2002

The "Client Referral" Log-In page (Where you went to "sign up" to help with the game) has been disabled, citing security issues.....so have I been chasing my tail with Splinter's map?Grrrrr Evil or Very Mad

At this time the client login page has been disabled. When we are certain security is 100% ready this page will be re-enabled.

Thank you

Stephen Lake
