FACT OF THE WEEK
A camel's hump doesn't store water. Instead, the hump is used to build up fat that is used when food is scarce. Camels actually store water in their bloodstream after drinking as much as 20 gallons at a time.

cryptoquip answers
Kevin Klocke, right, demonstrates the winch on a fellow competitor's handmade remote control model tugboat during a model boat regatta sponsored by the Northwest R/C Ship Modelers club at Downtown Park in Bellevue, Wash., Sunday, June 11, 2006. Modelers compete by running a course and exhibited their boats on shore, many built by hand to replicate actual working boats. One of the six boats Klocke brought along to the event, a buoy tender, floats at left near modeler James Bennett. Klocke said the tug at right, built exactly as a real working tug, cost its owner $30,000 to make.
