The Robertson family spent 38 days adrift with little fresh water or food supplies after their yacht was sunk by killer whales. Their tale of survival reveals the extremes the human body can endure.
By William Park
The wind had dropped the night before, but the sea was still running pretty heavy, especially for a boat like the Lucette. The waves were about head height and in a small boat there was a real risk of going over the side. In the distance a shape in the sea moved towards the yacht.
On board, the Robertson family were 200 miles west of Galapagos and two days into a 40-day leg to the Marquesas Islands in French Polynesia on their round-the-world voyage. Some of the family were sleeping below deck, having kept watch through the night. The morning coffee was brewing on the stove and the family were settling into their normal daily routine. The events that took place in the next few seconds would change their lives forever.
Douglas Robertson, who was 18 at the time, was in the cockpit with his younger brother Sandy when he saw it: the triangular fin of a killer whale. "I pulled a fishing line in and there was a big squid on the end of it, you know, and I said to my brother 'There'll be some big fish around here'," he recalls. "Because where there's squid there's whales."
And then came the impacts. Three in all, in quick succession. Their 43ft (13m) wooden schooner, was lifted into the air, the occupants thrown off their feet. The crack was so loud it could only mean the keel, a single piece of wood that runs the entire length of the bottom of the boat, 3ft (0.9m) deep and 1ft (0.3m) wide, had snapped.
"I thought we must have gone aground," says Douglas, who is now 65. "We must have hit the bottom somehow, even though we were in deep sea, because I couldn't think of another explanation for what happened. I looked down the hatches and said, 'Dad, are you okay?' And he was already up to his ankles in water."

Meanwhile, one of the whales, the biggest of the three, was bleeding into the sea from a wound on its head. What had prompted the animals to attack a ship?
Whales have been known to attack boats, although it happens very rarely. The climactic scene in Moby Dick is based on a true event from 1820 in which a sperm whale rammed and sank an 87ft (26.5m) whaling ship, Essex, in the South Pacific. All 20 crew survived the sinking, but only eight made it back to the US alive after an arduous journey in which they resorted to cannibalism.
Sperm whales fight by ramming each other with their rostrum – the hard front part of their skulls. It might be the case that the sperm whale that sank the Essex mistook the ship for another male. However, it is far more likely that the collision was a freak, random event. Whaling ships would intentionally sail towards sperm whales before launching the smaller whaleboats from which the harpoons were launched. An accidental bump was not unheard of.

● Is this the last chance to see the Titanic?
● The terrible fate of our world if the oceans disappeared
Killer whales might also fight like this, but more commonly hunt by teaming up to ram large prey like sharks and whales in their soft abdomen. The much smaller Lucette might have looked like a large whale from below – not out of the question to prey on.
Within moments of the collision, Douglas's father, Dougal, himself an experienced master mariner, called for his family to abandon ship. He fired up the radio to send an SOS while his wife, Lyn, collected their emergency supplies. "I looked at him," says Douglas, "and I thought 'This must be a dream'." It takes a couple of minutes for the radio to warm up. The Lucette sank before it did.
The boat was equipped with an inflatable life raft and 10ft wooden dinghy, both of which Douglas launched over the side and tied together before he was washed off the deck.
I was thinking all the time 'This is how I'm gonna die. I'm going to be eaten by bloody killer whales' – Douglas Robertson
"I was thinking all the time 'This is how I'm gonna die. I'm going to be eaten by bloody killer whales'," says Robertson. "And I kept feeling for my legs to see if I still have them because I've heard that you don't feel the bite. You just know you haven't got legs. I kept feeling and thought, well, at least I've still got my legs."
Robin Williams, a young man the family had picked up and offered a berth in return for work, was sleeping having held watch overnight when the ship began to sink. Rising groggily from the hold, he stepped out onto the inflatable raft. One side dipped under the water and then the whole thing was submerged, floating just beneath the surface, within reach but unusable.

It left the seven people who were on board the yacht – Douglas, his mother, father, two twin brothers, sister and Williams – no choice but to squeeze onto the six-person dinghy, in which they would have to survive being adrift on the ocean.
The hierarchy of survival
The Robertsons needed a plan. "Survival time without air is measured in minutes, with temperature deficiency is measured in hours, without fluid is measured in days, and without food is measured in weeks," says Mike Tipton, a physiologist from the University of Portsmouth who specialises in survival in extreme environments. The Robertsons were fortunate; sinking in the tropics, the temperature of the sea was not low enough to elicit the cold shock responses which cause people to gasp and breathe in water in colder seas.
All the great survival journeys of any length occur in the tropics – Mike Tipton
"All the great survival journeys of any length occur in the tropics," says Tipton. "If you're outside of that, you don't survive long enough to write a book about it." The first two items on their hierarchy of survival were sorted for now.
One of the factors that contributed so significantly to the Robertsons' survival in the moments immediately after they sank – their location in the tropics – would also start to become a complication. The heat would make them sweat.

"Survival is in the balance; specifically fluid balance, thermal balance and energy balance," says Tipton. "You can minimise your fluid requirement by making sure that if you have to do anything you do it in the coldest part of the day, making sure that you have good ventilation, avoiding sweating basically."
But surrounded by water, it would have been tempting to jump into the sea to cool down. This should be avoided though, warns Tipton, as the skin will become encrusted with salt that can draw moisture away from the skin and start to irritate. However, dipping a hand in the water might be excusable and is probably very effective. "They get very high blood flow when you're hot," says Tipton. "And it's a relatively small surface area against the whole of the body. If your deep body temperature is raised, the body will keep sending blood to your hands and you can lose the same amount of heat through the hands as you can from an ice vest or from an air-conditioned vest."
Afloat on the open sea but otherwise safe from immediate harm, the Robertsons now had time to plan their rescue. They decided to head north, closer to the equator, into an area known as the doldrums. This band of sea, where the northern and southern trade winds collide, is known for its calm water and little surface winds, which might make it extremely slow to sail through, hence the nickname the area acquired from bored sailors.
But it is exactly because of these conditions that it was appealing to the Robertsons. The lack of surface winds is what makes it an ideal place for survival. The band of sea around the equator might reach 35C for most of the year. Moisture from the surface of the sea rises vertically up in this area – meaning on the surface the wind is still – before cooling and returning to the sea as rain.
The rain would have made it a miserable place to be stuck as a sailor, but as a survivor it could keep you alive
The Robertsons knew there was rain there, having sailed through it on their way to the Galapagos. Thunderclouds – 40,000 feet high – would have made it a miserable place to be stuck as a sailor, but as a survivor it could keep you alive.
They made a plan to row to the middle of the Pacific Ocean, store water and then row back to America, carried on a current. They had been sailing on the South Equatorial Current which flows westwards. But between the doldrums and their present location is an eastwards countercurrent which would take them back to the American continent in 72 days, by their calculations. Their route would also take them through the shipping lanes that go to Australia and New Zealand from America, increasing their chances of being picked up.
At 10am on the sixth day, their luck changed. There, not more than three miles away, was a ship. Dougal fired two hand flares and three parachute flares – leaving them one hand flare spare. But the ship never turned towards them. "That was a real sobering moment for all of us," says Douglas. "We realised that we weren't here just to get rescued."

The marine larder
A voyage across the open ocean for this length of time would not be easy, though. They would need food, for a start.
"Everybody who's ever gone on a diet knows that you're pretty hungry early on, but with time you don't feel hungry, and particularly when you're not doing very much," says Tipton. In the hierarchy of survival, food ranks low. You can survive for several weeks without eating. But for a 72-day voyage, the Robertsons would eventually need to eat.
We were sort of naked, a bit like cavemen. We were catching animals with our hands and our ingenuity – Douglas Robertson
Fortunately, there is plenty to eat in the Pacific Ocean. Protein in particular is very easy to come by. The Robertsons caught flying fish and sea turtles, drying the meat in the sun to preserve it. "By [the third week] our clothes had completely rotted away," says Douglas. "So we were sort of naked, a bit like cavemen. We were catching animals with our hands and our ingenuity."
But protein is not really what your body is looking for when you are starving and dehydrated. "When proteins denature into amino acids, you're going to produce byproducts like ammonia and urea that you have to then dilute with fluid," says Tipton. "Not so with fat and sugar." Without enough water to drink, the proteinous fish could eventually poison you.
Turtles, however, have a layer of fat under their shells, which is far more useful to your body in a survival situation and can be eaten at any time. Douglas says that the family reduced their diets to a single piece of meat three times and sips of water three or four times each day. Getting enough water was the real challenge, despite being in an ocean of it.
Water everywhere
The Robertsons had the foresight to save 18 pints (10.2 litres) of fresh water in cans. But for a 72-day trip, it would not be sufficient. After about 24 hours, if you intentionally deny yourself water, the body switches into water conservation mode. Normally, the human body requires around 1.5 litres of fluid every day, but in survival situations this can be reduced to around 400ml per day, according to Tipton. In a worst-case scenario this could be reduced further, to around 200ml, at which point the body maintains essential kidney function but shuts down many other processes and the blood becomes severely hypertonic.

The hot weather that meant Douglas and other family members survived the initial sinking, however, would now become their enemy.
"If it's pretty warm then you are going to lose about half a litre of fluid a day, through the skin," says Tipton. The Robertsons had two other immediate sources of water beyond their meagre canned supplies – rainwater and condensation. With a canopy over the top of the dinghy, sweat and water vapour breathed out by the family would condense on it. "Having a way of collecting that is essentially a way of recycling body fluid."
What anyone hoping to survive must never do, however, is drink seawater or urine. "Urine is about 4% more concentrated than standard body fluid," says Tipton. "So, you'd need to be diluting it by an enormous amount. You're never, ever going to be in that situation in a survival scenario."
Getting enough drinkable water was quickly becoming an issue for the Robertsons. They had arrived in the doldrums, but there was no rain. For three days they waited, occasionally seeing a raincloud frustratingly out of reach in the distance.
Their solution was to drink the blood of the sea turtles they caught. Douglas recalls it being palatable and not at all salty and it became an important source of fluid for them.
The extremely low levels of water the family were drinking, however, took a toll on their bodies. Douglas remembers only urinating once during their entire ordeal, and when he did it was thick and dark like tar.
When deprived of water in this way, the body starts to do strange things. When they accidentally cut their hands, while handling a turtle for example, the family found they did not bleed. "The body is pretty good at sacrificing the extremities in order to maintain heart, lung and brain function," says Tipton. "If you dehydrate, you'll find the peripheral blood flow goes down because the body's trying to maintain central blood pressure. They didn't bleed because there's no blood going there. Maximum vasodilation can be three litres per minute going to the skin, whereas maximum vasoconstriction can be 20ml per minute. You know, it is pretty radical."
When the extremities lose blood flow in a colder environment it can cause frostbite. In warm environments, it can lead to heatstroke. Without being able to send blood to the skin, the body sacrifices an easy way to cool down.

Concerned by the families lack of excretion, Lyn, who had some medical training, suggested they give themselves enemas using the dirty water in the bottom of the boat and some of the tubing from the inflatable raft in an effort to get things going. The dirty water, a mixture of turtle blood, rainwater and seawater, would have been totally undrinkable. In the colon, very little fluid is absorbed, so as a technique to rehydrate its effects would be limited.
Allegedly, the British SAS are trained to give themselves enemas as a survival technique and the stunt has been repeated by survivalists like Bear Grylls. When I put this to Tipton, he laughs. "I'm sure they've tried it, they'll try anything, but it really isn't going to have a massive effect."
Douglas remembered quite liking the experience of popping a fish eye, and the brief relief it brought
The family also started to suck the spinal fluid from fish skeletons and eat fish eyes. Douglas remembered quite liking the experience of popping a fish eye, and the brief relief it brought. The eyes might even have contained a small amount of much needed vitamin C as well as a burst of liquid.
Finally, on their fourth day in the doldrums, it began to rain. "We were so joyous and we drank our fill of water," says Douglas. "All the meat went bad because of the water but we ate what we could and discarded the rest." The turtles returned regularly enough for them to have a steady supply of meat, along with their eggs and thirst-quenching blood.
After a while, however, the rain began to be a problem. They were having to constantly bail out the dinghy, taking shifts through the night, eventually collapsing in exhaustion from the efforts. On about 21st day, they spotted the North Star. Douglas says they worked out they must have travelled 420 miles.
Rescue and acclimatisation
On the 23 July 1972, their 38th day adrift, they spotted a second ship. Dougal lit the last flare and held it until it burned his hand. This time, the ship turned.
"Curiously, they asked us if we wanted to be rescued," says Robertson. They had been spotted by a Japanese fishing boat. "This rope came down and landed on the raft. And that was our first realisation that we were safe."
We reached a pinnacle of contentment that we would never reach again in our lives – Douglas Robertson
The first thing Douglas asked for was coffee: "The idea was fantastic." But he couldn't drink it.
"We were very poorly. We didn't know it, but our haemoglobin count dropped. We should have had blood transfusions, but they put us on a diet of coconut water."

There are a few recent examples of rescues which show how far our understanding of the damage that extreme survival can do to the body has come: the 12 Thai boys who spent 18 days trapped in a cave in 2018 and the 33 Chilean miners rescued in 2010. In both cases, all survived.
"When they came out they were put on broad spectrum antibiotics," says Tipton. "Though they were desperate to eat, they weren't allowed food. All the digestive enzymes will be reducing in terms of the amount and their activity. To stick a great big amount of food into the stomach, when it's had nothing in it, is something of a challenge."
The Robertsons reached Panama, where the British embassy put them up in a hotel. It was here that Douglas could fully experience the joy of ordering what he liked; he chose three servings of steak and eggs from the hotel restaurant, which made him "as sick as a bloody pig". Being able to ask for it was satisfaction enough.
"Dougal put in his book 'We reached a pinnacle of contentment that we would never reach again in our lives,' and it's true, you know, you can't reach that pinnacle of contentment," says Douglas.
"We went down the market and there were turtles there being butchered. We looked at turtle steaks with a different eye, you know, thought 'Well it's not like our turtle steaks – they were straight off the bone'."

Name Change Alert! From Responsible Computer Science To Responsible Computing Challenge
By Mozilla | Jan. 20, 2023
This name change signifies the need for an interdisciplinary approach to training the next generation of technologists.
After four successful years supporting the future of responsible computing education in the United States, the Responsible Computer Science Challenge today announces it is changing its name to the Responsible Computing Challenge.
As technology continues to shape our everyday lives, it has become increasingly clear that a new generation of technologists around the world must approach their work differently to redress the harms of technology, capitalize on its opportunities, and shape a better future. "Computing," rather than "computer science," reflects the importance of interdisciplinary viewpoints – particularly the rich traditions of critical engagement with culture and society – to imagine and build a different future for technology.
Our grant-making and organizational structure is not changing, but how we think about interdisciplinary work on computing will. This definition is more inclusive of the different approaches, disciplines, and skill sets that a new generation of practitioners need in order to look beyond the technical minutiae of a design to map out its potential impact on people. This definition still includes computer science, and it also embraces a broader range of approaches: students should think through the implications of data analytics, robotics, human-centered design, and more.
Says Steven Azeka, Program Lead for the Responsible Computing Challenge: "Not only does the change of name to the Responsible Computing challenge signify the importance of a broader interdisciplinary coalition, it also raises the bar on our expectation of the technology sector when it comes to training a new generation of technologists with a broader skill set inclusive of expertise typically excluded."
About the Responsible Computing Challenge
The Responsible Computing Challenge – funded by the Omidyar Network, Mozilla, Schmidt Futures, USAID, and Craig Newmark Philanthropies – reimagines how the next generation of technologists will be educated. By reimagining and redesigning undergraduate curricula and pedagogy to be both intentionally interdisciplinary and inclusive, the goal is to support a new wave of technologists who will understand social and historical context and think more critically about the design and use of technology. The hope is that the Challenge will unearth and spark innovative coursework geared towards building more responsible and ethical tools and applications at colleges and universities across the globe. Since December 2018, the Challenge has awarded $3.5 million in prizes to promising approaches that embed ethics in undergraduate computer science education, as well as a set of teaching and leadership resources in the Teaching Responsible Computing Playbook. If you would like to contribute to the Playbook, please sign up here. If you are interested in contributing to the Responsible Computing Challenge more broadly, please sign up for the Global Teaching Responsible Computing Community here.

Mozilla's two decades of tech building and advocacy has highlighted the importance of humanistic and social scientific approaches to technology, especially with regards to developing trustworthy AI.
In the first round of the Challenge, we found that the most successful and groundbreaking grants were ones that recognized the need for work beyond computer science, where computer science professors partnered with colleagues in law, history, philosophy, and beyond. You can read more about the past four years of programming here, which includes detailed descriptions of work by our 19 institutional grantees.

Cholera cases reach 172, health ministry says
A child cholera victim from a previous outbreak of the disease in Basra (IRIN)
Share with a friend on WhatsApp
A cholera outbreak is continuing to spread in central and southern Iraq with 65 new cases registered over the past week, bringing the total number of confirmed cases to 172, a health ministry spokesman said on 20 September.
"We have registered so far 172 confirmed cases of cholera in eight provinces: Babil 104 cases, Baghdad 42 cases, Karbala 17 cases, Basra three cases, Najaf two cases, Anbar two cases, Diyala one case and Maysan one case," said Ihsan Jaafar, director-general of the public health directorate and spokesman for the ministry's cholera control unit.
Dozens of suspected cases are being tested, Jaafar added.
"We are still fighting the disease in the affected areas. We have no problem with the [availability of] medicines and the movement of our medical teams but we can't say that we will put an end to this disease as it is endemic in Iraq and the reasons behind it are still around," he told IRIN.
Despite 40 cases having been diagnosed in Babil Province last week, Jaafar said that ongoing awareness campaigns have helped limit watery diarrhoea cases, often associated with cholera.
He anticipated that new cholera cases would continue to occur in the country until the end of October as the disease's peak is in August, September and October.
According to Richard Finkelstein, the author of the Cholera, Vibrio cholerae O1 and O139, and Other Pathogenic Vibrios section in the Medical Microbiology textbook, the disease occurs primarily during summer, possibly reflecting the increased presence of the organism in the marine environment during those months, as well as the enhanced opportunity for it to multiply in unrefrigerated foods.
Since the outbreak began in late August, five fatalities have been registered so far: a 10-year-old girl and a 61-year-old man in Babil province; a three-year-old boy in Maysan; and an adult and child in Baghdad.
Babil and Maysan are about 100km and 350km south of Baghdad respectively.
The Iraqi Health Ministry and the World Health Organization have blamed the country's rundown water and sanitation infrastructure for the cholera outbreak.
Cholera is a gastro-intestinal disease typically spread by contaminated water. It can cause severe diarrhoea, which in extreme cases can lead to fatal dehydration. It can be prevented by treating drinking water with chlorine and by improving hygiene conditions.

Q: Why when combine HTML and PHP, the HTML shown in "View Source" is not nested correctly? I have two PHP files, that are used as Views in an MVC-based application. Both of them contain mostly HTML, but also some variables sent to them by the Controller.
maintemplate.php:
<!DOCTYPE html>

        <title><?php echo $viewModel->get('pageTitle'); ?></title>

        <?php require($this->viewFile); //index.php ?>

index.php:

fanfics list

The problem is that the code shown in "View Source" (I checked Chrome, IE, and FF) is not nested as I would expect it to be. The first line is nested correctly - four spaces after the containing tag, but the other lines are nested as if the first line has no spaces before it at all.
View Source:
<!DOCTYPE html>

        <title>Fanfiction application</title>

fanfics list

I tried to search on Google and on StackOverflow various variants of bad nesting view source, but none of the results seems to answer my question.
So how can I solved that? Thank you.

A: As explained by Mario in the comments...
maintemplate.php:
<!DOCTYPE html>

        <title><?php echo $viewModel->get('pageTitle'); ?></title>

<?php require($this->viewFile); //index.php ?>

index.php:

fanfics list

Then your view source will display as you want.
Look at your version of index.php, line 2, is indented 4 spaces, that is what appears in view source. Look at line 3, indented 0 spaces, as seen in view source. This is rectified in the new version by indenting them the amount of spaces you want.
As for line 1, in your index.php it is not indented any spaces so it appears exactly where the require part starts in maintemplate.php (already indented 8 spaces)
Requiring a file does not alter the indentation in any way, it just combines what you have specified in your files.
In the version above, all the lines in index.php are indented manually to match where they will be positioned in the source view, you just need to remember to not indent the require line because any indentation there will be added to the indentation on line 1 in index.php

This is the first installment of a four-part series on the equal nature approach to cybersecurity.
The answer to "What is Cybersecurity?" changes every couple of years based on how the industry views threats to networks and the available capabilities to counter those threats. The capabilities available have matched the increasing knowledge of the developers and security experts, but the information used to develop the capabilities has been in response to what the malicious actors do, not necessarily what can be done to prevent the successful exploitation of the vulnerabilities.
In today's world, Cybersecurity stands for the actions done to protect your networks from exploitation. This is a simplistic view of what Cybersecurity is, but sometimes simplicity is what's needed to properly explain an issue with this many nuances.
Some of the earliest thinking about network protection was to keep the responsibility in the hands of the "experts", or, rather, networking professionals. Who else could possibly understand what it takes to protect a network than the people who built and maintain those networks? The problem with that thinking is the network you built structurally is what you put in place, but what runs on those networks is built by third party developers and used by the general public. Yet, no fault can be blamed on those early practices, as they worked, but not for long.
Defenders slowly started to gain ground on the attackers, able to implement defenses which created problems for the malicious actors. That did not last for long, as the malicious actors have the benefit of time to research and exploit vulnerabilities throughout the network, with defenders always having to react to those exploits rather than with proactive measures.
The malicious actors started to outpace the defenders, causing a change in the community from reactive defense to the proactive measures which are required to properly defend. However, the proactive measures initially deployed were quickly outmatched by the malicious actors.
The initial proactive measures used by network professionals were all technology based. This was not a bad method, but technology requires information, information which has been proven to only be available after a successful exploit. The malicious actors realized they must change tactics again to be more successful, changing to social engineering work and the rise of spear-phishing attacks. This too can be countered through technology, but it is always behind relying on already occurring spear-phishing campaigns.
None of this is news for any cybersecurity professional and is not offered up here as a referendum on how cybersecurity has progressed in the last 15 years. It is only here to provide a level of background as to how cybersecurity has progressed and some of the thought progressions involved.
In the past couple of years the network security community has slowly evolved to a new way of thinking of how to conduct Cybersecurity, and while it may not be the final answer, it is an approach which has learned from the past and works to provide balance for organizations in their network security.
The new approach works to find balance between three areas: people, process, and technology. These are routinely shown in an equilateral diagram graphic, demonstrating the equal nature of all three areas.
The equal nature approach is the true nirvana of Cybersecurity, the ability of every organization able to bring the resources and priority to protecting their networks. Yet this is not how the real world works.
During the next three posts I will dive deeper into what people-process-technology means, focusing a post on each side of the triangle. The posts are to outline what each part of the triangle means in a perfect world, but also to show that even organizations which may not have all of the resources of a larger corporation might be able to increase their network security and provide protections against the malicious actors.
Cybersecurity is not the ability to throw a piece of technology on your networks, but how to approach each facet of the cybersecurity triangle and implement the most effective version.

The end of the Baltic cruise and the beginning of the D – Day 75 Commemoration
On Tuesday morning we left Queen Victoria and headed home. Poor Maureen was on her way to Winchester County Hospital to have her broken wrist sorted out. The drivers Ian and Gary arrived as we came out of the Terminal building and we were home by 10.00am.
And then the D – Day 75 activities began and that prompted me to think about the movements at sea during WW2 of my father, George E Smith. Like so many of his generation, father never talked about the war. Mother never knew where in the world he was during the war. If his ship came into a UK port he would telephone and sometimes they would be able to meet.
Father first went to sea in 1930 when he was 16. He joined the New Zealand Shipping Company as a cadet.
His apprenticeship was for 4 years. He used to say that he had been round the world 7 times before he was 21. His first ship was the TSS Northumberland. After gaining his Second Mates Certificate he joined the United Baltic Corporation and sailed on their ships SS Baltara and SS Balteako where he stayed until he had gained his Masters Certificate.
At that point he decided that he wanted to move to something bigger. He wrote to 8 Shipping companies. Cunard responded immediately asking him to attend an interview and more importantly sending him a rail ticket to get to the interview!
He joined Cunard on 18 June 1940 and 3 days later on 21 June 1940 he boarded RMS Franconia as 3rd Officer.
I have discovered that Franconia had been requisitioned as a troopship at the outbreak of the war in September 1939. On 16 June 1940, while en route to St Nazaire as part of Operation Ariel – the evacuation of the Second British Expeditionary Force from France – the Franconia was damaged by near misses from German bombs and was escorted back to Liverpool
Father must have joined her when she arrived in Liverpool. Later in the war she took part in landings at Madagascar in May 1942, Operation Torch in North Africa 8-16 November 1942. During his time aboard Franconia, father was promoted to Junior Second Officer and then Senior Second Officer before moving to RMS Ascania as First Officer.
Interestingly in 1945 the Franconia was used as a headquarters ship for Winston Churchill and the British delegation at the Yalta Conference.
RMS Ascania was built in Newcastle and was completed in May 1925. Before the war she was employed on the London/Southampton – Quebec- Montreal route, switching to Halifax and New York in the winter. In August 1939 she was converted into an Armed Merchant Cruiser. After spells on convoy protection she returned to the UK and was converted into a Landing Ship – Infantry.
Father joined her on 7 February 1943 and she took part in the Invasion of Sicily between 10 July and 17 August 1943, the Anzio Landings which began on 22 January 1944 and the landings in the South of France – Operation Dragoon – on 15 August 1944.
On 19 December 1944 Father joined Queen Mary as Senior First Officer moving to the Queen Elizabeth soon after the war had ended.
And to finish this piece and to bring us up to date, Jane's brother Nigel was carrying out his formal duties in Portsmouth on Wednesday, welcoming the Queen to Hampshire, for the D Day 75th commemoration. He was caught by the cameras as he walked just behind President Trump.

Nigel Freer says:
The D Day coverage was very moving Richard. We have much to thank those brave service men and women for all the did for our generation. Like your father my father rarely spoke about his war experiences. I do remember one story though. My father Walter was a Royal Marine. Woe betide you if you didn't say ROYAL Marine! He spent most of the war training troops to fight on the front line. Towards the end of the war he was told, much to his chagrin, that he'd be going to lead his own troop. "No" says he to his commander. "I'm need here to train the new intake". Despite his protestations off he goes to the River Rhine. On the first evening he overhears German voices on the otherwise of the river and orders his troop to 'hit the ground'. When he looks up he's the only one prostrate. "Get up" says one of his squad. "if we can hear them they can hear us and we don't shoot at night". Feeling rather foolish my father had and early lesson in the difference between learning by the manual and the real world. Wonderful brave folk. Thanks for this entry on your blog.
Richard Smith says:
Great story Nigel. We watched all the D Day stuff, in between the unpacking, washing, ironing, grass cutting, cooking, cleaning – you know what it's like for us chaps!

Muscle Wall was recently featured on KSL news as a sustainable and reusable flood control solution that is being used throughout the Country. We have provided a link to the actual video coverage as well as the article that appeared on KSL's website.
A growing Utah company makes a product that could help homeowners and communities devastated by recent flooding, especially if they're preparing for the next flood.
"These storms seem to be coming more frequently," said Jaren Taylor, the inventor of Muscle Wall.
Muscle Wall is a mobile retaining wall built with plastic blocks filled with water and covered with a liner. The blocks are linked together to form a wall either 2 or 4 feet tall.
His latest project site is in Alpine where several mountainside neighborhoods were ravaged by debris flows and flooding twice in the last month after torrential rainfall.
A river of mud and soot from a burn scar, caused by a massive wildfire in 2012, roared through neighborhoods. As a result, one homeowner bought a Muscle Wall to divert any more debris flows that might breach the banks of a ditch behind his home.
However, the majority of their clients are municipalities looking for long-term flood protection.
"Your flooding comes in, you protect whatever you're trying to protect, and you move it out," said George Deussen, a co-worker of Taylor.
Taylor said in most circumstances, a crew of four people can build a 4 foot tall Muscle Wall, 260 feet long, similar to the one in Alpine, in about an hour. Sandbagging a wall that size would certainly take more than a day, and sandbags are not reusable.
Because it is easy to deploy, Taylor said communities are more apt to be proactive with a Muscle Wall technique.
Deussen traveled to Colorado last week and helped deploy a small section of Muscle Wall.
"If you were to do a sandbag wall this tall, It would take 468 sandbags. This takes just minutes to put up. Then it's reusable."
Sandy City used Muscle Wall in 2011 during high spring runoff. Murray City used the temporary barrier that same spring to surround an entire office building. However, the majority of their client cities are on the coasts.
"You're talking about efficiency. You're literally talking about whether a building is going to be saved or not," Deussen said.
Muscle Wall costs more upfront than sand and bags. However, they argued there are a lot of hidden costs to sandbagging including transportation costs and the loss of valuable time.
Taylor also pointed out that sandbags are not reusable and take an army of volunteers to deploy.
"There's a little bit of manpower (needed to deploy the Muscle Wall), primarily small equipment to move the product around," Deussen said.
Taylor also pointed out that when the flood risk passes, the breakdown of the wall is simple.
"You take the water out, and stack them back up and you're good to go," he said.

Wike's revelations an indictment on Supreme Court – APC
Published on February 16, 2016 by pmnews · No Comments
Okafor Ofiebor/Port Harcourt
Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers
The Rivers State Chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has described the revelations made by Governor Nyesom Wike about how he won the State Governorship Election dispute at the Supreme Court as an indictment of the apex court.
Wike had publicly said during his well-publicised Thanksgiving Service of 7th February, 2016: "He (referring to former governor, Dr. Peter Odili) would call me at midnight to tell me what to do. He will say, 'go to so, so place'. I took all his advice and here we are today victorious."
Rivers APC said in a statement signed by its Chairman, Dr. Davies Ibiamu Ikanya, and issued Tuesday in Port Harcourt that Wike's confession had ended the mystery about how he procured the shocking judgement considering that Dr. Odili's wife, Mrs. Mary Odili, is a Justice of the Supreme Court.
"That Wike may have influenced the outcome of the judgement given by the Supreme Court for PDP in Rivers State was further exposed by PDP supporters, who started celebrating the judgement by 9am – almost ten hours before the incredulous judgement was delivered at 6.45pm on Wednesday, January 27, 2016," Rivers APC said.
The party regretted that Rivers people had by the judgement been denied the opportunity to vote for the governorship candidate of their choice simply because "to Wike, everything in this world, including every judgement, has a price tag."
Rivers APC aligned itself with the position of the Head of the Presidential Anti-Corruption Committee, Prof. Itse Sagay, that the reasons adduced by the Supreme Court for its judgement on the Rivers governorship election are not convincing.
Citing the statement by Prof. Itse Sagay,APC said the erudite Scholar in his reaction titled, 'Wike Climbed Into The Governorship Seat Over Dead Bodies': "Everybody knows that people like Wike climbed into the governorship seat over dead bodies and over the blood of human beings. There were no elections, they wrote the results; the evidence is there." Sagay added that what the Supreme Court has done is to set the clock of electoral excellence and fairness and credibility back by, " I do not want to say a thousand years, but certainly it is taking us back to where we were before (former INEC Chairman, Prof. Atahiru) Jega came in and sanitised the system."
The party expressed its conviction that "the blood of our 100 members killed to install Wike as Rivers State Governor will one day touch the minds of the Supreme Court Justices and make them to give correct judgements that will save Nigeria from the shame in the international community occasioned by this unjust judgement."
The statement also berated those that are criticising the party's gubernatorial candidate, Dr. Dakuku Adol Peterside, for his principled stand on the obvious misleading judgement of the Supreme Court. Dr Dakuku Peterside only quoted what Wike said in Church and drew the attention of the world to it without passing a judgement. The fact remains that Dr Peterside never ever criticized the judiciary. Every person knows that Dr Dakuku Peterside is a man of character and high moral standing.
APC said in other climes what Wike said in church could cause an outrage. The party dismissed those criticizing Dr Peterside in this regard as being insensitive to the inviolability and sanctity of life as the 100 souls of APC killed for Gov Wike to be so elected meant nothing to them.
To us, these people are ignorant people who do not deserve any serious attention. If anybody or institution is angry, such an institution or fellow should shift their anger to Wike who shamelessly told the entire world how he procured his Supreme Court judgement and leave Dr Peterside out of this sad development in our judiciary.
Rivers APC attaches a version of the you tube recording of Gov. Nyesom Wike's speech at his Thanksgiving Service in Port Harcourt Sunday, February 7, 2016.

This post has been written in partnership with Gameband. All opinions are 100% my own.
My kids love Minecraft, and they love Minecraft themed stuff like snacks and crafts. One of their favorite snacks is muddy buddies, so I decided to whip up a little themed Minecraft Muddy Buddies. It's perfect for after school snack time while they're playing video games to relax and wind down before we start homework.
Do yours kid take over your computer after school? All three of mine do.
This muddy buddies mix has two flavors – Cake Batter and Chocolate Peanut Butter. The green is Cake Batter, and the brown is Chocolate Peanut Butter (my fave!). When I make muddy buddies, I like to make it in zipper storage bags. It's easier to cover the cereal with the melted candy melts or chocolate and doesn't make a huge mess. Plus, it's an easy way for the kids to make it themselves with a little supervision.
One thing I did learn was to not heat the candy melts in the storage bags. I learned that lesson the hard way. The bags will melt together into one big mess.
Measure out 3 cups of cereal into one gallon size storage bag and then measure out another 3 cups into another gallon size storage bag.
In one bowl, combine 1/4 cup butter, chocolate candy melts, and peanut butter.
Then, microwave for 30 seconds at a time until completely melted. Stir to combine before pouring into 1 storage bag of cereal.
Once poured in, seal the bag and shake to cover the cereal.
Next, add 3/4 cup of powdered sugar, reseal the bag, and shake again to cover.
Then, add 2 teaspoons of cocoa powder, seal the bag, and shake again.
Once you feel the cereal is totally covered, pour it onto wax paper to dry.
Next combine the other 1/4 cup of butter and green candy melts in a second bowl and heat for 30 seconds at a time until melted.
Stir until smooth, then pour into the second bag of cereal.
Seal the bag and shake to cover the cereal.
Next, add 3/4 cup of powdered sugar and 1/4 cup of white cake mix.
Seal the bag and shake until well covered.
If it's not green enough for you, add a few drops of food coloring and shake again.
Add 2 teaspoons of cocoa powder and shake one last time.
Next, pour the cereal out onto wax paper and allow it to dry.
Once both cereals are dry (after about 10-15 minutes), combine and serve.
One idea my tween had was to make his own grass block with his snack. We didn't have any clear cube-shaped glasses, so he just made it in a regular juice glass and then used a spoon as a shovel.
We even had a little contest making our very own Creeper faces with the muddy buddies.
Love Muddy Buddies? Check out these other flavors!
Teaching vs Tech – What Matters More?
My 9-year-old grandson loves Minecraft and he's always showing me such cool things he's created. He would absolutely love the Gameband and we would all enjoy the muddy buddies.
My second graders love Minecraft. It is so popular. I think they would love it if I brought in a treat like this.
What a fun looking treat. My kids love all things Minecraft so they would love this recipe. But that game band is really cool. I'm going to look into that!
Admittedly I don't get the attraction to Minecraft, but I know our kids really enjoy playing it so much. This looks like a super fun snack to give them while they play though – I am sure that they would love it!
These Minecraft Muddy Buddies are brilliant! My daughter and nephew are completely immersed in everything Minecraft and would love this fun snack! I love the idea of the Game Band too….because my kiddos love to comandeer the computer when they get home from school!
It's so cool how Gameband makes Minecraft so much more portable. I'm loving the Muddy Buddies!
How fun and festive! I love muddy buddies and these look so delicious!
While I know nothing about mine craft, those look like fun snacks. I like the camo colors.
I've never heard of this before, but it looks good. My kids are grown and long gone so I don't have to share anymore haha. I'll have to try this.
My kids would love this snack mix! It would be absolutely perfect for a Minecraft party too.
My son loves Minecraft. Although he has never played he likes to watch videos of people that do. These would be super cute to make with him.
This is great! My son is a minecraft die hard & he would be over the moon with these treats!
My son is hooked on this game. I've had him stop playing it because it's all he thinks about. Those treats look awesome!
My boys aren't old enough to be into Mine Craft yet but I'll take an excuse to make muddy buddies any day!
Omg this sounds great! I swear every kid I know is mind craft obsessed. They would all get a kick out of this.
I've heard so much about Minecraft and other than it being a video game, I really know nothing about it. I need to check it out. I feel so out of the loop!
What a cute way to snack and have fun! Plus I love muddy buddies!

GOP voters in North Carolina 9th U.S. House district picking new candidate for race rerun
Tuesday's primary will narrow field of Republican challengers to face Democrat Dan McCready
CHARLOTTE (CFP) — Voters in North Carolina's 9th U.S. House District will go to the polls Tuesday to vote in primaries for a seat that has been vacant since state elections officials refused to certify the winner of last November's election over allegations of absentee ballot fraud.
On the Democratic side of the ballot, Dan McCready, who narrowly lost the seat in November, faces no opposition. But on the Republican side, nine candidates are jockeying for their party's nomination after last year's GOP nominee, Mark Harris, dropped out of the election rerun.
State Senator Dan Bishop
To clear the primary without a runoff in North Carolina, a candidate needs 30 percent of the vote, and pre-election polling has shown State Senator Dan Bishop of Charlotte right at that threshold and ahead of the other candidates in the crowded field. He has the backing of much of the Republican establishment, including Texas U.S. Senator Ted Cruz.
The only other candidate in double-digits in polling is Union County Commissioner Stony Rushing, who has gotten Harris's endorsement.
The district stretches across south-central North Carolina from the Charlotte suburbs to near Fayetteville.
Democrats have high hopes of flipping the seat, which McCready lost to Harris by just 900 votes. He has raised more than $2 million since November and will start the general election campaign with a $1.6 million war chest.
However, Republicans in the legislature changed state law to force a primary in the special election, which cleared the way for the party to jettison Harris, whose campaign had seriously wounded by allegations that one of his campaign operatives had engaged in absentee ballot fraud in Bladen County, a rural outpost at the eastern end of the district.
After a new election was ordered, Harris — citing health concerns — declined to run.
Bishop, 54, is a social conservative best known as one of the authors of North Carolina's "bathroom bill," a law passed in 2016 which required transgendered people to use the restroom assigned to their birth gender in public facilities. After a public outcry and organized boycotts of the state, the law was repealed in 2017.
His campaign has been endorsed by the North Carolina Values Coalition, a conservative group that supported the restroom restrictions.
Stony Rushing as Boss Hogg
Rushing, 47, who owns a gun range, has drawn attention for dressing like Boss Hogg, the fictional political boss in "The Dukes of Hazard," during his re-election campaign to the county commission in 2018. During the congressional campaign, he has defended Harris, saying the fraud allegations had been "blown out of proportion" and that state elections officials had erred by ordering a new vote.
McCready, 35, is a Marine Corps veteran and solar energy entrepreneur making his first bid for political office.
If no Republican candidate clears 30 percent, a runoff will be held in September. The GOP winner will face McCready in November.
Residents of the 9th District have been without representation in Congress since Republican U.S. Rep. Robert Pittenger left office in January.

Thingvallavatn – Kaldárhöfði Beat 4
Thingvallavatn - Kaldárhöfði Beat 4
The Kaldárhöfði beat (beat 4) is in the southmost part of Lake Thingvallavatn where River Sog runs from the lake. The beat also stretches south into Lake Úlfljótsvatn. 2018 is the first year Fish Partner offers fishing in this new beat and therefore the price of licenses is very affordable. This beat is also known as excellent Arctic char fishing, especially in June through August. Six rods are permitted on the beat and this is the only Fish Partner beat that also allows spinning. All fishing is catch and release.
Lake Thingvallavatn
Lake Thingvallavatn is the largest lake in Iceland, located only 40 minutes from Reykjavík. Thingvellir, where the Althingi, the Icelandic parliament, was established around the year 930, is a place of historic significance. The lake lies along the North Atlantic Ridge, sitting where the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates separate from each other. Thingvallavatn is 83 square kilometers (32 square miles) and is deepest at 115 meters (377 feet). The lake's catchments area is 90% underground and the water from thousands of cold springs has a constant temperature of 3-4°C the whole year round. The spring water is filtered through layers of the surrounding lava making Thingvallavatn gin-clear and easy to spot fish. Three out of the five species of freshwater fish found in Iceland live in Thingvallavatn; brown trout, Arctic char and the three-spined stickleback.
The giant brown trout of Thingvallavatn has evolved there in isolation since the last ice age. This legendary fish is the most coveted catch of many a fisherman, Icelandic or otherwise. Tales of battling these mighty fish are akin to fairy tales and are never forgotten by those lucky enough to play a part in them. The huge and fertile water mass of Thingvallavatn provides excellent living and growing conditions for Thingvallavatn's brownies which are different to other brownies due to their unique habitat. These extraordinary brown trout can grow to a weight of over 30 lbs, and specimens in excess of 20 lbs are frequently caught in peak fishing times. In Thingvallavatn, you never know what the next cast will bring.
Thingvallavatn supports four varieties of the Arctic char making it unique in the world. The Arctic char in Thingvallavatn is a clear example of how species evolve and adapt to their surroundings, each with its own ecological niche, as these four varieties have evolved from one species in only 10,000 years. The Arctic char (bleikja in Icelandic), have adapted themselves to two main lake habitats, the main body of water and the bottom of the lake. In the main body of the lake, the food source of the Arctic char is constantly on the move and the fish themselves have little shelter from predators. The Arctic char that have evolved under these conditions are streamlined and have a long lower jaw. The fish-eating type, the piscivorous char (sílableikja in Icelandic), can grow up to 40 centimeters (16 inches) in length, while the plant-eating planktivorous char (murta in Icelandic) is a lot smaller, usually only about 20 centimeters (8 inches) in length. The lake bottom is the main habitat of the large snail-eating char and the dwarf-char. There is enough food there and also plenty of places to hide from predators. The snail-eating char can be up to 50 centimeters (20 inches) in length, while the dwarf-char stands up to its name and is usually only 10-13 centimeters (4-5 inches).
Distance from Reykjavík: 40 km
Fishing season: 20 April - 30 August
Average size: Brown trout 8 pounds, Char 2 pounds
Number of rods: 6
Tackle: #6-8 or spinning rods
Best flies: Streamers and nymphs
Access: Easy

Q: How to make 2 of everything in an array list? public static void main(String[] args){
    List<Integer> two = new ArrayList<Integer>;
    two.add("Kyle");
    two.add("Randy");
    two.add("Shaun");

The goal of this program is to make two of all of the strings so it will print out like this
but I am not sure of how I would do this.
kyle

any help would be appreciated thanks

A: Um...you could provide something like a static utility method that iterates over the collection, printing each entry twice,
private static void print(List<String> list){
    for(String s : list){
        System.out.println(s);
        System.out.println(s);
    }
}

A: Try this
List<String> strings = new ArrayList<String>();
List<String> strings2 = new ArrayList<String>();
for (String s : strings) {
  strings2.add(s);
  strings2.add(s);
}

for(String s : strings2){
    System.out.print(s);

THE BIJOU REVIEW: "Straw Dogs"
Movie Overview
Our Review:
/ 5 - Terrible
Reviewed by: Mitch Salem
STRAW DOGS: Watch It At Home – Pointless In Every Way
Forget about the artistic comparisons, the insult to film history, and the lack of respect to a great filmmaker no longer with us. There's not even a commercial reason to remake Sam Peckinpah's 1971 STRAW DOGS. The title is virtually valueless as a brand name, as the film, for reasons of rights issues and content, has only sporadically been available on homevideo, and rarely, if ever, aired on television. The only people who really know the film are the serious fans who've sought it out, and they're exactly the ones least likely to appreciate digging up poor Peckinpah's grave. So… why?
The only justification for a remake would have been some drastically different concept, an insight that could shed new light on the original material, but such is not the case with Rod Lurie's movie, which makes a few changes from Peckinpah's film but largely follows it very closely. In every meaningful way, Lurie's film is inferior to Peckinpah's. This isn't because Peckinpah's film is flawless; on the contrary, it's a mess of undigested ideas and styles, and much of it is muddled and over the top. But it's a great film nonetheless, a milestone in a great artist's career even 40 years after it opened, in part because of Peckinpah's ability to turn his messy, difficult ideas into art.
Both films concern a couple who return to the wife's home after her father's death (in Peckinpah's film, the setting was Cornwall in England; here, it's the deep South). David Sumner is an intellectual (Dustin Hoffman as a mathematician for Peckinpah, James Marsden a screenwriter for Lurie), and his wife Amy is a hot young number given to wearing a minimum of clothes (Susan George in 1971, Kate Bosworth now–Bosworth's also been given a profession as an actress) who fled for the big city as soon as high school was done. The town in both versions is a hotbed of drunken bigotry and, needing a contractor to fix their barn roof, David ends up hiring Amy's old boyfriend Charlie (Del Henney then, Alexander Skarsgard now). Charlie and his crew are louts who cheat and belittle David, and eventually turn violent, attacking Amy. Meanwhile, the town's pathetic retarded man (David Warner/Dominic Purcell) is teased by a local girl with dire results, leading to his taking refuge with the Sumners and a dlimactic showdown with Charlie and his pals.
Peckinpah didn't smooth out any of the edges of his politically incorrect, even offensive ideas in 1971, and the original Straw Dogs was hugely controversial because it suggested Amy's own actions had partly led to her attack (and worse, that she partly enjoyed it), and then that it took brutal killings to finally make her husband a real man. Neither of those concepts are present in Lurie's version: Amy indignantly objects when David suggests she's flaunting her sexuality to the workmen, and David has lost his note of triumph at the movie's climax. With no ideas at all to replace Peckinpah's, what remains is merely a half-decent action movie.
All of Lurie's cast is, in one way or another, miscast. The buff Marsden simply isn't the intellectual and wimp that Dustin Hoffman embodied in 1971, despite Lurie's attempts to show Marsden as clumsy from time to time, and without that basic brain vs. brawn conflict, the whole focus of the movie is lost. It was also a mistake to change David's profession, since a mathematician is far more clearly a man lost in his own intellect than someone writing a movie about Russian soldiers in World War II–also, David's inability to explain his script to the townspeople in terms of it being a war movie with action sequences just makes him seem silly. (Possibly this was Lurie's misplaced salute to Peckinpah's World War II movie Cross of Iron.) Bosworth either doesn't have or has been directed not to display the knack for ambiguously sexual hostility that Susan George had. And although Alexander Skarsgad is a fine actor, and viewers of True Blood know he can certainly play menace, he's all wrong as an uneducated redneck–Skarsgard comes off as so low-key and sophisticated that he could almost be playing David. (There's an unintended joke when Charlie makes fun of Amy's no longer having a Southern accent, since as played by Skarsgard, he sounds himself like he might own a gallery in Soho.)
Beyond that, it's not an insult to Lurie to say that his filmmaking skills simply don't compare to Peckinpah's, since whose do? But Lurie's the one who asked for the comparison, so it must be said that his Straw Dogs has none of the photographic, musical or certainly editing flair of Peckinpah's film (when, in one sequence, Lurie tries his hand at some subliminal editing, the result has little impact). If the original Straw Dogs didn't exist, Lurie's picture might look acceptable, but then, if the original didn't exist, this one wouldn't either.
For admirers of Sam Peckinpah, the pain has only begun; reports are that Tony Scott is planning a remake of Peckinpah's true masterpiece and one of the greatest films ever made, The Wild Bunch. Perhaps, if we're lucky, the movie gods will place that one in development hell and it will never actually come to pass; for now, we have this thoroughly unnecessary, mediocre rehash. However, the existence of the new Straw Dogs has had one positive effect; it's put the Peckinpah original back into homevideo circulation (although the new audience-unfriendly Netflix doesn't stock it), and for that, and that alone, Rod Lurie deserves our thanks.


Getting away with it in plain sight.
I went to see Ocean's 8 last weekend and it was a delight. It had everything I love in a movie: a tricky plot, fun dialogue, genuine female friendships, characters who are great at their jobs, and an underlying theme that makes you think.
And the men? Eh, they were there, and yeah, they added a thing or two, I guess. They were more plot devices than actual characters.
Oh, wait… Could that, maybe, have been the point?
The women of Ocean's 8 aren't love interests or motivating factors for men. They are the heroes. And they are so, so good at what they do. The heist at the center of the movie—set in the world of high fashion and a fancy ball—is specifically female coded. Men literally could not do it.
What I love most about Ocean's 8 was the way the gang uses society's assumptions about women as one of their weapons. When one of them asks why there are no men involved, Sandra Bullock's character says, "A him is noticed, a her is ignored." Middle-aged women, especially women of color, are invisible, allowing the gang to pull off the heist in plain sight. Rihanna, Mindy Kaling, and Awkwafina play the janitor, the dishwasher and the waitress. Time after time, people look right through them. Sandra Bullock gets to play the entitled, middle-aged white woman—another easily-dismissed stereotype. Even in the film's final act, they use old women as fences. And they get away with it, of course. If middle-aged women are invisible, then old ones might as well not exist.
The only women who are ever noticed—ever seen—are the young and pretty, so why not use that fact as well? Anne Hathaway's character becomes a magnificent distraction. Every eye in the room is on her while the brown and black and over-the-hill women get on with the job at hand.
And what do these women buy with all their ill-gotten millions? Surprisingly modest things. A business, a production company, a solo motorcycle trip, an apartment. But they all represent the same thing—a woman who is the boss of herself, where she's in charge.
And maybe, for once, even seen.
About the Author: Alex Kourvo writes short stories and novels. She loves being her own boss and is glad she didn't have to pull off a heist to make it happen.
Scientist, educator, philosopher, writer. Carl Sagan's life and work continue to inspire us.
Having a hard day? Finding it difficult to get words on the page? Here are five quotes from Carl Sagan that will brighten any writer's day.
Sitting in a room and making stuff up? It's your job. Your imagination is taking you places!
…and the reality is, you've got to get some chapters written.
I love how Carl lapses into second-person here. As if maybe he, himself, isn't quite human? But he's captured the essential nature of humans: we need to live together, and we need the stories that teach us how.
You have an obligation to future generations. Start working that magic!
So let's go discover it in a book.
About the author: Alex Kourvo writes short stories and novels. She hopes to write billions and billions of words in her lifetime.
Thank you for everything you do for me. Every morning, I wake to the smell of fresh-ground heaven, and you are the last thing I think about before I go to sleep at night. Before I drift off, I always ask myself, "Did I set up the coffee maker for tomorrow?" Because one of the great ironies of life is that you need coffee to wake up, but you need to be awake enough to make the coffee.
Coffee, dear coffee, you allow the doing of the things and the writing of the words. Without you, I would just drool in the corner until the kids came home from school.
The kids, by the way, love you too. I'm afraid that's my fault. I let them have decaf vanilla lattes when they were in middle school, but you and I both know what a gateway drug those things are. Now, my teenagers drink black coffee with me every morning. I can't exactly say I'm sorry about that.
You star in many of my Instagram posts. Did you know that, my darling?
This is a love affair I hope never ends. You complete me, coffee. When I'm out of f*cks to give, I still have coffee. Coffee doesn't ask any questions. Coffee understands. I'm not saying I'd die without you, dear coffee, but other people might. And orange is soooo not my color.
I prefer black. Like you.
About the author: Alex Kourvo writes short stories under her own name and science fiction thrillers under the pen name MH Mead. She drinks two big cups of coffee every day, and enjoys every drop.
What if grown-ups got report cards, too? This is how I imagine mine.
Alex reads a variety of genres, not at all influenced by what the other students are reading. This year, she enjoyed many, many books including The Book of Unknown Americans by Christina Henriquez, Way Station by Clifford D. Simak, Immortal Clay by Michael W. Lucas, and Keller's Fedora by Lawrence Block.
Alex is introverted, so this is her hardest subject, and yet, she succeeded in making new friends at Confusion and Penguicon. She hopes to spend more time with her close friends this summer, because barbecue season is short, and friendship is important.
Alex's science experiments are all food-related, and while she attempted some new ones, she mostly kept repeating the same old experiments. The spaghetti experiment and the chicken soup experiment always have the same results. There is no need to prove them again.
Alex did not attempt any higher math this year. She did not use anything beyond addition and subtraction to balance her checkbook. And despite her insistence, I cannot give her a geometry credit for loading the dishwasher.
Alex accomplished all her writing goals for the year. Her blogs are always updated on schedule and she published a new novel in March. Alex is working on two super-secret projects, and we're all looking forward to seeing what those are.
Alex colors beautifully, but she only wants to color ornate swear words.
Alex prefers to read or do errands during naptime, even when she is cranky and snapping at people and walking into walls. Some better self-care routines would benefit her, and they would really benefit those around her.
Alex finds everything fascinating, especially her fellow students. She is curious about history, travel, gender studies, traditions, culture, unusual fashion, and how people express themselves in word and picture and song. She wants to know how people do things, why people do things, and what benefits they get from doing them. Alex watches, she listens, and she takes notes. Her fellow students should take care, because they might end up in her novels.

CAPE CANAVERAL (REUTERS) - A SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket blasted off from Florida on Monday (Dec 21) with a payload of communications satellites before the reusable main-stage booster turned around, soared back to Cape Canaveral and landed safely near its launch pad in a dramatic spaceflight first.
The successful mission, capped by delivery of all 11 satellites to orbit for launch customer ORBCOMM Inc, unfolded in just over 30 minutes and marked a pivotal reversal of fortunes for privately owned Space Exploration Technologies, or SpaceX, founded by high-tech entrepreneur Elon Musk.
It was the first flight for his California-based company since a rocket failure in June that destroyed a cargo ship being carried on a resupply mission bound for the International Space Station.
The upgraded, 23-storey-tall Falcon 9 rocket lifted off from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station at 0129 GMT (9.29am Tuesday Singapore time), with the nine-engine suborbital main stage returning 10 minutes later to a landing site south of its launch pad. The upper-stage booster continued its ascent to Earth orbit with its payload.
Mr Musk has said the ability to return his rockets to Earth so that they can be refurbished and reflown would slash his company's operational costs in the burgeoning and highly competitive private space launch industry.
SpaceX employees erupted in jubilation as they watched live video footage of the white first-stage booster slowly descending upright through a damp, darkened night sky amid a glowing orange ball of light to make a picture-perfect landing.
"Welcome back, baby!" Mr Musk wrote in a celebratory Twitter message he posted.
Rival company Blue Origin, a space startup founded by Amazon.com Chief Executive Jeff Bezos, nailed a similar return rocket landing test last month. In a seemingly back-handed compliment to SpaceX, Mr Bezos tweeted a message of congratulations to Mr Musk's company, saying: "Welcome to the club!"
But the SpaceX feat, which the company had characterised before launch as a "secondary test objective," was achieved during an actual commercial mission.
Minutes after blast-off, the Falcon 9's first-stage rocket separated from its upper-stage booster, which continued on into orbit to release ORBCOMM's satellites about 800 km above the Earth.
Monday's deployment completed a US$200 million (S$282 million) 17-satellite network that will provide machine-to-machine messaging services on the ground - such as between retailers and shipping containers.
After separation from its upper stage, the Falcon rocket's main stage turned around and fired a series of engine burns as the vehicle flew back to Earth, unfurled its landing legs and settled gently onto a newly revamped landing pad occupying a decommissioned missile site.
SpaceX, which has more than 60 launch missions pending collectively worth about US$8 billion, previously experimented unsuccessfully with attempts to land its rockets on a platform in the ocean.
The Hawthorne, California-based company was founded in 2002 by Mr Musk, who also serves as chief executive of Tesla Motors Inc , the electric car maker.
Before Monday, SpaceX had been grounded since June 28, when a Falcon 9 rocket exploded shortly after launch during a space station cargo run for NASA.
Investigators traced the problem to a faulty support beam that held a bottle of helium inside the rocket's upper-stage liquid oxygen tank. When the strut broke, helium flooded into the tank, causing it to over-pressurize and then explode.
SpaceX switched to a new supplier for the steel struts and upgraded its testing program, Mr Musk later told reporters. The Falcon rocket launched on Monday also included a more powerful first-stage engine and a beefed-up landing system.


tmpfs has a peculiarity of accounting hard links as if they were separate inodes: so that when the number of inodes is limited, as it is by default, a user cannot soak up an unlimited amount of unreclaimable dcache memory just by repeatedly linking a file.
But when v3.11 added O_TMPFILE, and the ability to use linkat() on the fd, we missed accommodating this new case in tmpfs: "df -i" shows that an extra "inode" remains accounted after the file is unlinked and the fd closed and the actual inode evicted. If a user repeatedly links tmpfiles into a tmpfs, the limit will be hit (ENOSPC) even after they are deleted.
Just skip the extra reservation from shmem_link() in this case: there's a sense in which this first link of a tmpfile is then cheaper than a hard link of another file, but the accounting works out, and there's still good limiting, so no need to do anything more complicated.


NOT everyone fighting Lung Cancer today is a smoker!
People who smoke any kind of cigarette are at much greater risk of lung cancer, than people who do not smoke. Smoking harms nearly every organ of the body and diminishes a person's overall health.
People who switched to light cigarettes from regular cigarettes, are likely to have inhaled the same amount of toxic chemicals, and they remain at high risk of developing smoking-related cancers and other diseases. Smoking causes cancers of the lung, esophagus, larynx (voice box), mouth, throat, kidney, bladder, pancreas, stomach, and cervix, as well as acute myeloid leukemia.
Cigar smoking causes cancer of the oral cavity, larynx, esophagus, and lung. It may also cause cancer of the pancreas. Moreover, daily cigar smokers, particularly those who inhale, are at increased risk for developing heart disease and other types of lung disease. Regular cigar smokers and cigarette smokers, have similar levels of risk for oral cavity and esophageal cancers. The more you smoke, the greater the risk of disease.
Second Hand Smoke Among the more than 7,000 chemicals that have been identified in second hand tobacco smoke, at least 250 are known to be harmful. For example; hydrogen cyanide, carbon monoxide, and ammonia.
Asbestos has been classified as a known human carcinogen (a substance that causes cancer), by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, the EPA, and the International Agency for Research on Cancer (2, 3, 7, 8). Studies have shown that exposure to asbestos may increase the risk of lung cancer, and mesothelioma (a relatively rare cancer of the thin membranes that line the chest and abdomen). Although rare, mesothelioma is the most common form of cancer associated with asbestos exposure. In addition to lung cancer and mesothelioma, some studies have suggested an association between asbestos exposure with gastrointestinal and colorectal cancers. In addition,there is an elevated risk for cancers of the throat, kidney, esophagus, and gallbladder.
Even if a cancer-predisposing mutation is present in a family, it does not necessarily mean that everyone who inherits the mutation will develop cancer. Several factors influence the outcome in a given person with the mutation. One factor is the pattern of inheritance of the cancer syndrome. To understand how hereditary cancer syndromes may be inherited, it is helpful to keep in mind that every person has two copies of most genes, with one copy inherited from each parent. Most mutations involved in hereditary cancer syndromes are inherited in one of two main patterns; autosomal dominant and autosomal recessive.
According to a 1999 study by the National Academy of Science, Arsenic in drinking water can cause Cancer. In a 2000 report, the EPA found Arsenic in drinking water across 25 states. The NRC estimates up to 56,000,000 people living in these states were drinking tap water with unacceptable levels of Arsenic.
Bottled water is not necessarily any safer than tap water. Often, it is nothing more than tap water that may or may not have been filtered.
If you are considering a water filter for you home, consider a water filter system that is certified by NFS International. While such certification is not necessarily a guarantee, it is better than no certification.
By Law, every local Water Utility is required to report on contaminants and toxins found in your drinking water. However, it will not include averaging over a long period of time. The National Standard for Arsenic is 10 parts per billion (10ppb). The following table represent the long term risk for Cancer per the National Resource Council.

What are these sites doing to the air and water supplies?

Our mission is to realise the full potential of the ocean to prevent and reverse the effects of climate change, while protecting her splendor.
The total amount of carbon in the ocean is about 50 times greater than the amount in the atmosphere, and is exchanged with the atmosphere on a time-scale of several hundred years. At least 1/2 of the oxygen we breathe comes from the photosynthesis of marine plants. Currently, 48% of the carbon emitted to the atmosphere by fossil fuel burning is sequestered into the ocean (NASA). This makes the ocean the single biggest opportunity to reverse climate change
However, the future fate of this important carbon sink is uncertain because of potential climate change impacts on ocean circulation, biogeochemical cycling, and ecosystem dynamics. Many of these problems are related to our growing population and our (food) production system; methane release from dairy farming, pollution from artificial fertilisers, soil depletion, mono cultures for feed and fuel. We target these problems and turn them into opportunities for people and planet.

Buccaneers vs. Bills Injury Reports: Jensen, Dean, Gholston Listed as DNP
The Bucs are dealing with some injuries heading into their big matchup with the Bills.
Tampa Bay's first injury report of Week 14 debuted Wednesday and it contained one rather large surprise. The Bucs held a walkthrough as opposed to a regular practice, but the following statuses are treated as if the Bucs held a regular practice.
You can find both injury reports below to go along with an AllBucs breakdown.
As you can see, center Ryan Jensen was included on Wednesday's report and was listed as a non-participant due to an ankle issue that has apparently flared up. Cornerback Jamel Dean, defensive linemen Will Gholston, and safety Jordan Whitehead were also listed as non-participants.
Dean is still in the NFL's concussion protocol. Bruce Arians described Gholston's knee issue as a patellar tendon issue after Sunday's win over the Atlanta Falcons, but he's also dealing with a wrist injury, as well. It will be interesting to see how all three players' statuses evolve throughout the week. Whitehead missed the Falcons game with what has been described as a "very significant" calf injury, so it's doubtful his status improves this week.
As it currently stands, the other players are on track to play Sunday against Buffalo.
Report: Buccaneers' Bruce Arians Fined $50K for Sideline Actions
Buccaneers Bring CB Rashard Robinson Back to Practice Squad
WR John Brown Among Buccaneers' Divisional Round Practice Squad Protections
Buffalo's injury report is not as near as popular in terms of non-participants. Wide receiver Cole Beasley was Wednesday's only absentee and it was only because of rest.
Defensive lineman Star Lotulelei played in the Bills' matchup with the Patriots despite appearing on last week's injury report with an illness. Tight end Tommy Sweeney played against the Patriots, too, but his hip injury appears to be a new development, as he wasn't on last week's reports.
Defensive lineman Efe Obada and fullback Reggie Gilliam were both inactive after a full practice and a limited practice on Friday, respectively.
In all, the five Bills listed on Wednesday's report are all on track to play Sunday barring any setbacks.
