When Richard Branson sneezes the world catches a cold. So it's not surprising that when Branson first said the words "cruise ship" in 2017, cruisers and non-cruisers alike sat up. You can bet your bottom dollar that cruise convention will be thrown overboard.
Now you can book yourself onto Virgin Voyages first ship, sailing from Miami, as intineraries went on sale on February 14, 2019.
And this is only the beginning. After Scarlet Lady there are three more ships in the pipeline. Here's everything we know about Scarlet Lady.
Sailors, if you don't mind (no passengers here). According to Branson, they'll be: "young at heart people that want a good time." They will explore, have adventures and enjoy free-spirited days and nights with nary a care in the world.
Tattoo artist, Lou Rubino Jr, has handpicked two resident tattooists for the studio as well as a line-up of guest artists. Virgin Voyages celebrated the announcement last month by giving away 100 free nautical-inspired micro tattoos at Soho Ink in Manhattan.
Vinyl fans can add to their collection while at sea thanks to the on board record shop, Voyage Vinyl. It harks back to the Virgin brand's beginnings – Branson's first venture was mail-order records, don't you know. As well as browsing through current and classic tunes, sailors will be able to plug into personal listening stations and buy magazines, headphones and record players. It will double as a spot for live sets from the ship's resident DJs.
A visit to Voyage Vinyl will set sailors up nicely for an evening (or few) at The Groupie, a modern take on a Japanese-style karaoke lounge.
The ship's top deck will be an exclusive outdoor lounge and private club reserved for suite guests. Designed by Tom Dixon's Design Research Studio, it will have a futuristic look with circular loungers, giant umbrellas and dichroic rainbow-effect glass. We suggest you wear white.
Can I sleep like a RockStar?
All passengers, regardless of their suite category, will enjoy access to the private members club that is "Richard's Rooftop". (See above).
1,150 crew from around the world will be taking care of 2,700 sailors. Recruitment began in early 2019. "We want to see more women stepping up and taking command of our ships," said a spokesperson.
But there won't be a traditional cruise director on board. Instead you'll be guided by a group "dedicated to making 'happenings' around the ship completely epic" – they'll need a solid grasp of millennial lingo.
Should I expect West End-style shows?
Think more off-Broadway. Virgin Voyages says its working with some of "the brightest creative minds who are pushing the boundaries of traditional theatre and entertainment on land". Sailors should be primed to participate with the cast and and become immersed in performances.
The main theatre, "The Red Room," will be the stage equivalent of a Transformer taking on a range of guises from a catwalk-style to a traditional Proscenium stage – a setting for a completely different type of entertainment each day of a voyage.
The ship will host six orignial shows, including a production by Randy Weiner – who's behind Queen of the Night, a lavish off-broadway show that includes plenty of cast/audience interaction.
Meanwhile, Phantom Folktales, six micro plays that will be performed across the ship, should add some on board sponteneity. There'll also be a modern twist on Romeo and Juliet, featuring acrobatics, and Never Sleep Alone – a show that further encourages participation as it features a straight-talking relationship therapist.
Complimentary filtered still and sparkling water will be available all over the ship and, alongside the plastic ban, Virgin Voyages is developing clean energy technology. The line has recently ordered its fourth ship and each vessel will feature Azipod propulsion technology, which reduces fuel consumption by 15 per cent.
Her inaugural season is in the Caribbean with Havana, Cuba at the top of the agenda. Havana is one of the Caribbean's most up-and-coming cruise destinations, so it's perhaps not a surprise to find Virgin here. Branson said: "Virgin Atlantic has been visiting Cuba for 13 years, and I cannot wait to see our iconic Scarlet Lady gleaming in the Havana harbour." All sailings to Cuba from Miami will include an overnight stay, giving passengers more time to explore the capital's nightlife and culture.
She'll set sail in 2020 for her inaugural season in the Caribbean. Tickets went on sale on February 14, 2019, for voyages between April 1 and October 25, 2020.
Sailing from Miami, the 18 four and five-night itineraries include Havana After Dark voyages with an overnight stay in Cuba, a five-night Dominican Daze voyage to Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic and a five-night Mayan Sol cruise to Costa Maya, Mexico.
Prices will start from $1,450 (£1,130) per person for an inside cabin for two. Wi-Fi, basic soft drinks, water and coffee and group fitness classes are included in the fare, as are gratuities.
If you're keen to be among the first to test out Virgin's cruise experiences, now's the time to nab a cabin for Scarlet Lady's inaugural season.
Also revealed is that all Scarlet Lady cruises will feature a stop at The Beach Club, an exclusive Virgin Voyages experience in the seven-mile island of Bimini in the Bahamas. The resort will feature beach clubs that Virgin says will rival those in Ibiza and Saint Tropez. Plus it will replicate the wellbeing emphasis you can enjoy at such resorts. Mornings at The Beach Club begin with yoga and meditation as sailors can enjoy the sounds of the ocean.
The energy will be pumped up towards the afternoon when DJ-led pool and flotilla parties get underway. Sailors will be lulled back into the evening as a beach bonfire is set up alongside an acoustic performance. They'll be served island-inspired food throughout the day from conch and mango salad, to rum cake.
When not eating or partying, sailors will be able to socialise at one of the island's six bars, rent out a beach or pool side cabana or get active with water or beach sports.
For those keen to explore one of Ernest Hemmingway's favourite islands a little more, they'll be boating, snorkelling and wreck diving on offer.
Sailors staying in the RockStar Suites get an extra special experience with access to a dedicated bar, complimentary food service, an outdoor terrace lounge, sun loungers and beach cabanas.
Will Richard Branson be making an appearance?
There's one voyage where he definitely will – if you so wish, you could join him for at his at sea birthday bash. Branson will be sailing with celebrity friends on a four-night Havana After Dark voyage, departing July 15, 2020 and sailors are invited. You can book yourself on this one-off trip now or enter yourself in a draw two win a cabin for two – entries are open until March 31, 2019.

Nazarbayev University has created a new research platform. A new Association of Young Scientists is helping the local researchers have a networking opportunity and be able to find partners for conducting interdisciplinary research and developing joint projects. The association has already brought together more than 100 young scientists, including graduate students in philosophy, humanities, social sciences and engineering. 5 million tenge was allocated to finance this association from the Nazarbayev University's Corporate Social Development Fund.
- We are ready to support the projects of young scientists. We will help those who have interesting ideas that are useful for the society. This association is not exclusively for Nazarbayev University. Scientists from all over Kazakhstan can join it. The association can grow to a global scale.
- Young scientists who have just graduated from universities and are just starting their independent research, have more difficulties than those who already have certain experience. They usually do not have access to sources of financing for their projects. So we want to create networking opportunities for them.

The Bigfork area is nearly 2,900 feet above sea level. The beautiful village of Bigfork is situated along a sparkling bay where the wild, white waters of the Swan River run into Flathead Lake. For its location, Bigfork and The Flathead Valley have a relatively mild climate and can best be described as an area of climatic transition between coastal and continental. With more than 180 miles of shoreline, Flathead Lake is the largest natural freshwater lake west of the Mississippi, providing visitors a playground for fishing, boating and all varieties of water sports. Bigfork's year-round resident population is approximately 5,100.
Bigfork has a way of capturing the imagination and stealing hearts, and yet it means something different to everyone. Some come for the untouched wilderness and wildlife. Others want to experience the culture of the old west. And still others just want to sit by a fire, disconnect from the world, and reconnect to themselves. Bigfork isn't just a Montana lakeside resort, a nature-lover's paradise or a quaint, western stage-stop. It's all these things and more in one unforgettable place. Whatever Montana you dream of, you'll find more of it in Bigfork.
How Bigfork came to be
It's easy to understand why our town's founder, a young Everit L. Sliter, fell in love with Bigfork when he first arrived for a hunting and fishing trip in 1889. Like many of today's residents, Sliter was awed by the vastness of Flathead Lake, the rolling Swan and Flathead Rivers that feed it, and the majestic mountains that cradle Bigfork like a precious jewel.
By 1894, Sliter had relocated his family from his native Michigan and purchased nearly 140 acres in Bigfork, where he planted one of the largest orchards in the valley. Sliter went on to build an estate, which included Bigfork's first hotel rooms, and a post office. His vision laid the groundwork for future development and helped establish the Bigfork we know today.
The natural surroundings that made a Montanan out of Everit Sliter are still just as awe-inspiring, and our little town of Bigfork is still one of Flathead Valley's most beautiful places. Many of the places you can visit today have ties to Bigfork's historic past, including Eva Gates Preserves, which was founded in 1949, Bigfork Center for the Performing Arts, which has been a Bigfork institution for over 50 years, the Bigfork Inn, which was first opened as a hotel in 1910 and now serves as a family friendly restaurant and meeting place, and of course the old steel bridge that was built in 1911 to replace a wooden bridge that had spanned the Swan River since 1900.

One more measurement (in fact, 300 measurements) with a laser rangefinder in December 2018 (The Tree Projects and Giant Tree Expeditions) gave a result of 100.5. E regnans are somewhat shorter than giant sequoias, but are still the tallest flowering plants in the world. Eucalyptus regnans is a very fast growing tree, with mean height growth rates in young (< 22 years old) stands ranging from 1 metre (3 ft 3 in) to 2 metres (6 ft 7 in) per year. Still, specialists consider that eucalypts theoretically can exceed even 110-meter height. You can produce a small tree on a trunk with a height of anywhere between 2.4m (8ft) and 4m (12ft) See our 'Help' pages here - Link to help pages . dominate the land- scape at elevations spanning 400–1000 m asl. up to 90m in ideal conditions.

Eucalyptus trees on a plantation in Australia. 3. Insect visitors to the flowers of Eucalyptus regnans F.Muell. In total, 92% of insects caught were dipterans; however, most of these were small and did not contribute significantly to pollination. This tree is of the species Eucalyptus regnans, native to Southwest Australia. The top of the highest tree was hidden in the canopy and only approximate measurements were possible. The leaves are leathery and often hang obliquely or vertically; most species are evergreen. Eucalyptus regnans has evolved a novel xylem design that ensures a high hydraulic efficiency. Understanding the growth and longevity of old-growth trees is crucial to understanding the carbon balance and fire regimes of these forests.

In 1950 there was logging nearby and at that time this giant tree would not be spared. made more exact measurements. It is located in Tasmania, a small island off the coast of Australia. Maximum historical heights of trees in Tasmania are less impressive: two blue gums (E.globulus) in 1906 were 101 meters high. The results caused some disappointment: Centurion tree was below the 100-meter height: 99.6 meters. Eucalyptus regnans, the tallest flowering plant The image below shows the eucalyptus trees in Australian Alps, covered with snow. Any tree in the Tasmanian state forest, which exceeds the fantastic 85-meter height and/ or 280 cubic meters of volume, has to be registered and protected (5.).

Many species continually shed the dead outermost layer of bark in flakes or ribbons, whereas certain other species have thick textured bark. It could not legally be logged because its height exceded 80 metres. However, growth rates slow with age, and eventually turn negative as old trees senesce and the tops of the canopy are damaged in high winds, lightning strikes or during fires.

This name has a root "centum" meaning in Latin "hundred". Wildfires in 1934 spared just a few older trees in this area and passed on west side. Soon after foresters inspected both trees from the ground with laser rangefinders. Eucalyptus, (genus Eucalyptus), large genus of more than 660 species of shrubs and tall trees of the myrtle family (Myrtaceae), native to Australia, Tasmania, and nearby islands. Tasmania's world class giants. The climate of the region is favorable to the growth of these trees. When mapping a forest, LiDAR shows both the surface of trees and land level thus helping to assess the amount of wood in between. The trees have a smooth, grey bark. Later, when looking through the data collected by LiDAR, employees Mayo Kajitani and David Mannes noticed two previously unknown very tall trees standing close together. This is a lucky coincidence that Centurion has survived. Among the many species of timber-yielding eucalypti are the black peppermint tree; southern mahogany (E. botryoides); karri (E. diversicolor); Tasmanian bluegum; white ironbark, or yellow gum (E. leucoxylon); jarrah (E. marginata); messmate stringybark (E. obliqua); red mahogany (E. resinifera); northern gray ironbark; and others. In fact, some individuals grow at more than 2 metres (6 ft 7 in) per year for the first 20 years of their lives. "name": "Centurion - the tallest eucalyptus tree", Composite photo by Thomas Givnish Tree climbers also reported that the crown is healthy and is resprouting from the broken top, thus some time ago it was some 103 meters high. This feature enables the species to grow quickly to heights of 50–60 m, beyond the maximum height of most other hardwood trees. The pattern is closely related to the pattern of volume production for this species, that is, … There are 16 living trees in Tasmania that have been measured taller than 90 metres. morphology and anatomy with tree age and height in the broadleaved evergreen species, Eucalyptus regnans. Only later did he discover a cache of letters written by an ancestor as corrupt as he was colorful: Anthony Fenn Kemp, the so-called Father of Tasmania. } Eucalyptus regnans is one of the tallest hardwood trees and the tallest flowering plant in the world. Many species continually shed the dead outermost layer of bark in flakes or ribbons, whereas certain other species have thick textured bark. This Eucalyptus regnans, growing west of Melbourne, Australia, is more than 300 feet tall. Eucalypts make up a remarkable genus as the dominant trees of Australia.

The next meeting of the Special Interest Group 10 on the fluid mechanics of cleaning and decontamination will take place at the University of Bath.
The first meeting of the Special Interest Group (SIG10 of the UK Fluids Network) took place at the Department of Chemical Engineering and Biotechnology in Cambridge on Thursday 26th January 2017. About 30 delegates from over 10 universities across the UK and 6 industrial partners attended the meeting: Campden BRI, Dstl, Dyson, Fera Science Ltd, GlaxoSmithKline, and Procter & Gamble.
The morning session featured presentations from the Fluids Network leaders and the SIG co-leaders Julien Landel (University of Manchester) and Ian Wilson (University of Cambridge). Delegates discussed the proposals in breakout sessions after lunch. The presentation slides can be found here.
The afternoon was rounded off by presentations from three very different industry partners: Dstl – defence (slides), Fera Science Ltd - food, from farm to fork (slides), and GSK - pharmaceuticals and consumer products (slides). The talks demonstrated how important the topic is to their respective sectors.
The SIG is open to new members from industry and academia. A strong feature of this meeting was the number of new connections made. Contact Julien Landel for more information.

Liberians across the West African country went to the polls on Saturday to elect 15 of the 30 seats in the senate. The elections were postponed twice since October 16, the official date according to the Liberian elections laws. With Ebola ravaging Western Africa, Liberia has been the hardest hit, since March this year with more than 3,340 people already dead. To avoid a constitutional crisis, reports say despite advise that Liberia discontinue the vote to sustain the current decline from the virus, Liberian officials conducted the poll however.
With provisional reports coming in from the senatorial election, former presidential candidate and world footballer George Weah is in a commanding lead and the Liberian Listener can confirm, the former world footballer will be elected senator of Montserrado County. Weah defeats his closest rival, first son, Robert Sirleaf, according National Election Commission [NEC] provisional results with over 80percent of the ballots counted, Weah had a 75percent lead. By also winning the coveted senate seat, analysts say he will now use the powerful position to further cement his credentials to the presidency as he seeks to lead Africa's first independent country. Weah's Congress for Democratic change or CDC, is the major political opposition in the country. The party came second the last two presidential elections, which saw Ellen Johnson Sirleaf elected to the Executive Mansion.
In what will be a major upset, Senate President Gbehzongar Findley looks to bite the dust as Jonathan Kaipay of the Liberty Party, appears to be elected. In Nimba County, incumbent and power broker Senator Prince Y. Johnson early poll results shows will be reelected. His main rival, Liberty Party, Edith Gongloe-Weh will have to wait another nine years or look to a vacancy in the coming years if she wants to run for the senate seat in Nimba County.
Charles Taylor's National Patriotic Front of Liberia and his ex-wife Jewel Howard Taylor are likely winners looking to extend her mandate from her constituents in Bong county. Taylor is enjoying a dominate lead. Cuttington University President and senate seat contender Dr. Henrique Tokpah and Emmanuel Flomo of the Congress for Democratic Change could not trouble Howard Taylor much. If the current trajection holds former Superintendent Milton Teahjay will be elected Senator of Sinoe County. In Lofa, Stephen Zargo of the Liberty Party will grab the senate seat from former ULIMO warlord, turned presidential advisor, Alhaji Kromah, who ran as an independent candidate.
Running for the second time for the Cape Mount County senatorial seat, prominent lawyer and the ruling Unity Party Chairman Cllr. Varney Sherman, is sitting comfortably according to NEC results, while his fellow partisan in River Gee County presidential advisor, Conmany Wesseh could also clench the senatorial seat.

Cat outperforms professionals and students in stock picking
Posted: January 23, 2013 in Cats, investing, stock market, Wealth and Power
The Observer's panel of stock-picking professionals has been undone in our 2012 investment challenge by a ginger feline called Orlando who spent time paw-ing over the FT.
The Observer portfolio challenge pitted professionals Justin Urquhart Stewart of wealth managers Seven Investment Management, Paul Kavanagh of stockbrokers Killick & Co, and Schroders fund manager Andy Brough against students from John Warner School in Hoddesdon, Hertfordshire – and Orlando.
Each team invested a notional £5,000 in five companies from the FTSE All-Share index at the start of the year. After every three months, they could exchange any stocks, replacing them with others from the index.
By the end of September the professionals had generated £497 of profit compared with £292 managed by Orlando. But an unexpected turnaround in the final quarter has resulted in the cat's portfolio increasing by an average of 4.2% to end the year at £5,542.60, compared with the professionals' £5,176.60.
While the professionals used their decades of investment knowledge and traditional stock-picking methods, the cat selected stocks by throwing his favourite toy mouse on a grid of numbers allocated to different companies.
The challenge raised the question of whether the professionals, with their decades of knowledge, could outperform novice students of finance – or whether a random selection of stocks chosen by Orlando could perform just as well as experienced investors.
The result indicates that the "random walk hypothesis", popularised in economist Burton Malkiel's book A Random Walk Down Wall Street, is perhaps truer than we thought. Burkiel's book explores the idea that share prices move completely at random, making stock markets entirely unpredictable.
"It's time to crack open the Whiskas," said a good-humoured Justin Urquhart-Stewart. "The cat's got talent." To celebrate his success, Orlando's owner, former Cash editor Jill Insley, has bought him a red collar in the style of Urquhart-Stewart's omnipresent red braces.
All but one of Orlando's stocks (Morrisons) rose during the last three months of the year, including specialist plastics and foam company Filtrona, which Orlando had hastily swapped for under-performing Scottish American Investment Trust in September.
By contrast, the professionals refused to swap any stocks at the end of the third quarter and paid the price. British Gas fell by 19% and Imagination Technologies dropped by 16.8%, dragging their portfolio down by an average 7.1%.
The students may have finished last, but displayed the best performance of all the teams in the final quarter, their portfolio increasing by an average 5.4%, including a fantastic performance of 17.4% for property company Savills.
Their trading decisions were key: at the end of the final quarter they swapped Mulberry for Aviva and Betfair for Tesco. In the final quarter, Aviva's share price increased by 17% (compared with a rise of only 6.6% for Mulberry during that time) and Tesco rose by 1.2% (far superior to a fall in the Betfair share price of 5.4%).
Nigel Cook, deputy headteacher at John Hoddesdon School, said: "The mistakes we made earlier in the year were based on selecting companies in risky areas. But while our final position was disappointing, we are happy with our progress in terms of the ground we gained at the end and how our stock-picking skills have improved."
A spokeswoman for Orlando said he was not available to give an interview because of a claws in his contract.

BatmanMovie NewsNewsTerry McGinnis (Batman Beyond)
Tyler Posey Wants to Make Live-Action Batman Beyond
by Ari Bard April 16, 2018
by Ari Bard April 16, 2018 0 comment
Terry McGinnis has had his share of moments on the small screen, but now Teen Wolf star Tyler Posey has expressed interest in making a Batman Beyond live-action movie. Posey brought up the younger, more tech-savvy Batman in a recent interview when he said:
"I always got… Remember Batman Beyond? I loved Batman Beyond! That'd be fun, man. I don't want… I don't want to get too old before I got to pitch it"
Batman Beyond is a significantly younger Batman, and Posey, now 26, wants to make sure he doesn't miss the chance to play the character. He was a big fan of the TV show during its run in the mid-2000s, and he would love for a chance to bring this character to life.
Batman Beyond features Terry McGinnis as Batman in a futuristic Gotham City where Bruce Wayne is too old to continue fighting crime as the Dark Knight. Bruce Wayne picks and trains Terry to be the next Dark Knight of Gotham City. A Batman Beyond movie has been asked for by fans for years and almost happened in the early 2000s, and if the project ever comes up again, Posey would like to be a part of it.

Correction: The original story was edited to correct information about the engine controls and the status of the pilot's certification.
CHILLICOTHE - Overload may have played a factor in a May 18 plane crash that killed a Waverly pilot.
The National Transportation Safety Board on Thursday released its preliminary investigation report into the crash of an experimental amateur-built plane into the woods on Southeastern Local Schools property on Lancaster Road.
While it's too early in the investigation to draw any conclusions, the report notes "All separations in flight control tubing exhibited separations consistent with overload." The report also mentions a witness who said the plane's "engine slowed or stalled" or "refired" and then stalled just prior to crashing.
One of the engine controls was found completely destroyed while a second sustained minor damage, according to the report. "The engine was disassembled and no preimpact anomalies were observed," according to the report.

An NTSB spokesman previously told the Gazette the full investigation is expected to take a year or two to complete.
The report doesn't include the pilot's name, but the Ohio Highway Patrol previously reported it was 90-year-old Glen Galloway and information about the pilot's license certifications in the report matches with available online records for Galloway.
The Ross County Coroner's Office is awaiting positive identification per DNA which is anticipates having along with a toxicology report in about a month. The preliminary autopsy indicates the cause of death was multiple blunt force trauma consistent with a high impact plane crash.
According to the NTSB report, Galloway had taken off from Pickaway County Memorial Airport near Circleville about 15 minutes before the 12:45 p.m. crash and was destined for the Pike County Airport.
Galloway's medical certificate for his private pilot license was last issued on Feb. 6, 2017, with no limitations However, since Galloway was over 40 years old, he was required to get a medical exam for a new medical certification every two years instead of four.
Galloway's last flight review with an flight instructor, which is required every two years, was less than a month before the crash on April 24. As of his renewal, Galloway reported he'd logged 1,967 hours of total flight time and 22 hours in the six months before his exam.
Records show Galloway's plane, a Vans RV6 A, had been registered and was last inspected on Sept. 4, 2018. As of that time, it had accumulated 830 hours of total time.
NTSB Spokesman Peter Knudson told the Gazette earlier this month the next phase of the investigation will involve possibly sending items to the lab for testing and taking a "deep dive" into the pilot, plane, and operations.
Galloway, a father of four, was a World War II Army veteran and a lieutenant in the U.S. Navy reserves whose "enthusiasm and zest for life were infectious," according to his obituary.
