Half of Consumers Never Heard of Smart Grid
Consumer awareness of smart grids has remained flat over the last two years, with 53 percent of respondents never having heard the term "smart grid," according to the latest update of an annual Smart Grid Consumer Collaborative (SGCC) telephone survey of 1,001 US residential electricity consumers nationwide.
Of those familiar with the term, 54 percent say their general feelings about smart grid are favorable; 23 percent say neutral; 14 percent say unfavorable; and 9 percent don't know. The most common reason cited for an unfavorable rating of smart meters was a concern about electric company control over usage.
Findings of the survey also revealed that consumers favor critical peak rebate pricing programs over time-of-use pricing programs. And more consumers say they are willing to pay extra to invest in and support alternative energy than to improve grid reliability.
The Consumer Pulse Survey Wave 4, undertaken earlier this year by Market Strategies International on behalf of SGCC, determined that more than 60 percent of consumers are willing to pay an extra $2, $5 or $15 a month to support deployment of alternative energy. Less than 60 percent were willing to pay those amounts to improve reliability.
According to SGCC, a nonprofit with the mission of accelerating the adoption of smart grids, the results from the survey illustrate the importance of promoting the understanding and benefits of modernized electrical systems to all stakeholders in the US.

Book Description:
The Fourth Edition of the bestselling Survey Research Methods presents the very latest methodological knowledge on surveys. Author Floyd J. Fowler Jr. provides students and researchers who want to collect, analyze, or read about survey data with a sound basis for evaluating how each aspect of a survey can affect its precision, accuracy, and credibility. The Fourth Edition has been updated in four primary ways: it much more prominently addresses the growth of the Internet for data collection and the subsequent rapid expansion of online survey usage; it addresses the precipitous drop in response rates for telephone surveys, particularly those based on random-digit dialing; it offers new and expanded coverage monitoring the continued improvement in techniques for presurvey evaluation of questions; and it addresses the growing role of individual cell phone in addition - and often instead of - household landlines. Two new chapters, "The Nature of Error in Surveys" and "Issues in Analyzing Survey Data," further emphasize the importance of minimizing nonsampling errors through superior question design, quality interviewing, and high response rates. Key FeaturesCovers the expansion of cell phone use and legislation regarding them; this offers survey researchers guidance as to policy implications and practical application Expands the coverage of web-based and online surveys as well as the latest resources available to the beginning and expert researcher Offers in-depth discussion of non-response and sample size issues, especially as they relate to powerFocuses on data analysis, especially with regard to bivariate and multivariate approaches. Fowler walks students and researchers through the various types of analyses one would do once the data are ready to analyze. Provides a list of strengths and weaknesses for each of the different types of survey data collection, including the more recent web-based approachesIncludes updated references and survey examples that offer various levels of students and researchers other exemplary literature and modelsSurvey Research Methods, Fourth Edition gives compact, yet comprehensive coverage, making it an ideal companion or beginning text. Praise for Floyd J. Fowler, Jr. and the previous edition:"Fowler is smart, straightforward, and sensible in writing about research methodology. Students have a lot to gain from his wisdom and experience." —Mark Berends, Vanderbilt University

PLYMOUTH — The Optimist Club of Plymouth held its annual Tri-Star Basketball Contest on Saturday, Feb. 5 at the Plymouth High School. Despite the snow, it was a successful afternoon for some of Plymouth's boys and girls ages 8-13.
HAMLET — Three Triton starters occupied the pine with second-quarter foul trouble against four-time defending girls basketball sectional champion Oregon-Davis Saturday.
The Lady Trojans hardly missed a beat.
Even with three reserves – including a freshman seeing her first sectional time – on the floor, Triton opened up a nine-point halftime lead and maintained at least a seven-point edge the rest of the way to unseat No. 5 OD in Class A Sectional 50 title-game action at The Den.
ROCHESTER — The Lady Eagles can breath a sigh of relief.
Culver Girls Academy followed up a down-to-the-wire battle with defending champion Plymouth in the Rochester Sectional opener Tuesday with an overtime victory Saturday, holding the host Lady Zebras scoreless in the extra period for a hard-fought 44-39 championship.
INDIANAPOLIS — Plymouth senior Kenzie Miller wrapped up her high school career with a pair of top five finishes at the 37th Annual IHSAA Girls State Swimming Finals at the IUPUI Natatorium Saturday.
Miller clocked a 56.02 to place third in the 100-yard backstroke in her best finish in four years of state qualifying in the event, and she swam a 2:05.02 in the 200-yard Individual Medley to finish fourth in her third state appearance in that event.
MERRILLVILLE — A fearsome threesome are Culver Community's Jeremiah Harvey, Plymouth's Damon Howe and Bremen's Abraham Hall.
That trio has made Marshall County the center of heavyweight high school wrestling in Indiana this season. And it will be no surprise to see all three contend for a championship next weekend at the IHSAA individual state wrestling finals. All three will be there.
Each qualified by finishing among the top four in the 285-pound weight class at Saturday's Merrillville Semistate.
MOROCCO — With twin towers Gwen Zehner and Patrice McBee struggling to produce, Culver senior guard Whitney Sanders stepped up with 13 points, lifting the No. 6 Cavaliers over Winamac 34-25 to win the Class 2A North Newton Sectional Saturday.
The Cavs overcame a one-point, 23-22 deficit in the final frame for their first sectional crown since 2002. Culver shot just 23 percent from the field but held Winamac to only 21 percent in the defensive contest. The Cavs hit 13 free throws in 22 tries compared to a 7-of-14 finish from the stripe by the Warriors.
PLYMOUTH — The score wasn't important Saturday as Ancilla College took on Kalamazoo Valley Community College in basketball. What was important was the final tally.
The men's and women's basketball teams took on Kalamazoo Valley in an MCCAA Conference battle on the floor but around the game was the fundraising efforts of Chargers for Change and Ounce of Prevention Foundation of Marshall County. The two teamed up to raise money again this year to help raise awareness and battle breast cancer in Marshall County.
LYMOUTH — Twenty-three of the 65 students participating in the Five-Star Program at Lincoln Junior High joined with 11 other bus loads of kids across Michiana in the third Five-Star "Amazing Race" Saturday.
The LJH team was the overall winner at the end of the day and was named "The 2011 Amazing Race champions."
Approximately 500 students and coaches for the various schools encompassing four counties competed.

IPC Senior Fellow Rob Paral Published in Houston Chronicle
Published on Wed, Sep 11, 2013
Rob Paral, a Senior Fellow at the Immigration Policy Center and the author of our recently published Special Report, "Stepping Up: The Impact of the Newest Immigrant, Asian, and Latino Voters," made the case in the Houston Chronicle that the long-term demographic shift in many Republican and Democratic districts makes immigration reform even more of an urgent priority:
"A new analysis of immigration trends and demographic composition of U.S. House districts shows that many Republican congressional districts have emerging electorates that care deeply about immigration reform.
"Many Republican representatives will see their constituency profiles evolve in the coming years. Asian and Latino youth and newly naturalized U.S. citizens will make up 34 percent of newly eligible voters in 55 Republican-held congressional districts."

St. Charles Cancer Center tops fund-raising goal
Updated On: Aug 14 2014 03:40:07 PM CDT
After two years of fundraising, the St. Charles Foundation has exceeded its $5.7 million campaign goal to help fund the construction of an integrated cancer center in Bend.
Foundation representatives will present a check to St. Charles Health System's board chair, Tom Sayeg, at the cancer center grand opening celebration Thursday night at 5:30 p.m.
"The campaign has received broad community support with more than 480 individuals, several foundations and numerous businesses making donations," said Lisa Dobey, executive director of the St. Charles Foundation. "In addition, we received 100 percent participation by the boards at St. Charles Foundation and St. Charles Health System."
Les Schwab Tire Centers and the Les Schwab family made a lead gift of $1 million. In recognition of that gift, St. Charles named the Les Schwab Medical Oncology Wing in honor of Margaret Schwab Denton. This gift was followed by $500,000 and $50,000 gifts from the Maybelle Clark Macdonald Fund.
The foundation also received an unrestricted estate gift and designated a portion of that gift to the campaign, creating the John D. Picchetti Radiation Oncology Wing.
"We were all in this together," said Todd Taylor, co-chair of the fundraising campaign. "Whether you gave $25, $250 or $25,000, every single dollar contributed to our common goal."
Designed as a full-service facility, services at the cancer center will range from screening, diagnosis and treatment (including radiation and chemotherapy) to follow-up care and survivor services. St. Charles' cancer services continue to be a leader in health care in outcomes and survival rates for people with cancer.
St. Charles Foundation will continue to seek donations to build a Patient Care Endowment to provide programs and services such as massage, Reiki, acupuncture and nutrition counseling. Practical support including gas cards, food vouchers and scholarships for child care would also be funded.
"This new center is an investment in treating and caring for our patients," said Dr. Linyee Chang, the cancer center's medical director and co-chair of the campaign. "This is a wonderful day for our community and for our patients who rely on the world-class cancer care we provide."
The total cost of the integrated cancer center is $12.9 million, and is being funded by a combination of private philanthropy, St. Charles' capital funds and debt financing.
"We are extremely proud of this new cancer center but we always remember that buildings are merely concrete, glass and rebar," Dobey said. "It takes the best caregivers and programs to bring the building to life."
About St. Charles Foundation
As the philanthropic arm of St. Charles Health System, the Foundation works to support and improve health care in Central and Eastern Oregon. Private donations raised by the Foundation allow St. Charles to build new medical facilities, purchase state-of-the-art medical equipment, keep pace with the latest technological advances and deliver exceptional patient care in a healing environment. The Foundation does more than just raise money for bricks and mortar. The organization also raises money to support many programs that benefit low-income and uninsured patients.

Pair deny they broke into Mr. G'sApril 26,2013Pair deny they
broke into Mr. G's
WESTMINSTER — Two Bellows Falls men pleaded innocent Wednesday at criminal court in Brattleboro for allegedly breaking into and stealing items from a Westminster business.
Brian Brownell, 30, and Aaron Bush, 25, were each charged with three counts of burglary, two counts of unlawful mischief and possession of stolen property.
Vermont State Police responded to a burglary at Mr. G's Warehouse on Route 5 and pulled over two people who matched the description of those seen leaving the warehouse.
Several watches and pieces of jewelry were found in their possession, and they tried to break into two other locations in the area, according to Trooper Ryan Wood.
A status conference has not been set for Brownell but Bush has a pre-trial date set for June 10, according to criminal court.MORE IN This Just InVermont hazardous-materials team members were at the Asa Bloomer state office building in... Full StoryHoliday Festival Full StorySpeed blamed Full Story

Primary runoff results
So long, Dave. Riding a wave of conservative sentiment that Texas Republicans were not being led with a hard enough edge, state Sen. Dan Patrick crushed Lt. Gov. David Dewhurst in Tuesday's Republican primary runoff election for lieutenant governor, ending the career of a dominant figure in state politics for the last dozen years. The […] [Read More]
Runoff Day is finally here
It's the day on which the toxic idiocy of the GOP runoffs for Lt. Governor and Attorney General finally come to an end and we get a brief respite before the general election gets into full swing. But first, you have to vote if you didn't vote early, and that means you have to find […] [Read More]

Interview with David Alameel
As you may recall, I tried to interview Democratic Senate candidate David Alameel prior to the March primary. For one reason or another, the two of us were never quite able to connect up and make it happen. Well, he was in town recently and I got a call from a member of his campaign […] [Read More]
Mail ballots being mailed out for primary runoffs
From the inbox: The first batch of over 38,000 postal ballots for the May 27, 2014 Primary Runoff Elections have been mailed and will be arriving in voters' mailboxes this week.

How I'll be voting in the runoffs
This is pretty straightforward, as there are only two races in the runoff for me to consider. Senate – This is the definition of a no-brainer. David Alameel wasn't my first choice. I voted for Maxey Scherr, and didn't recommend a vote for Alameel in March because of questions about his past (and possibly present) […] [Read More]

Welcome to our clinic
Some illnesses and injuries require a visit to a hospital emergency room, however, in many cases an after-hours clinic such as Gonzaga Pediatrics and Family Health, formerly Peds After Five is a quicker and often times more cost efficient alternative.

Pediatrics After Five will continue to work with the Western Maryland Health System Emergency Room and if your child is experiencing a true life-threatening emergency, you should call 911 or go the hospital emergency room immediately.

Vintage meets future: importing photos to an iPad from a floppy disk
The iPad's Camera Connection Kit is a remarkably talented accessory. With its standard USB connector plus a bit of ingenuity, clever folks have found all sorts of things to connect that would not ordinarily be expected to connect: headsets, keyboards and a variety of storage devices. You can even connect an iPhone to an iPad and import photos from one to the other.
The latest demonstration of how flexible the CCK can be comes via vintage Mac fan Niles Mitchell. He pointed out this video showing an iPad importing photos (slowly and deliberately, to be sure) from a properly prepped floppy disk.
Given a powered USB hub to provide adequate juice, it's possible to fake out the iPad's import process by using a MS-DOS/FAT formatted floppy and putting a "DCIM" folder on the disk. Any photos inside that folder that have DOS-legal filenames (8.3) will be read by the CCK and the iPad.
Is it practical? Heck no. But it's still pretty cool. Video below.

Colombia, the world's second-largest coffee supplier after Brazil, said output is forecast to rise to its highest in five years in 2013 because of drier weather.
Output may rise to 9 million bags from about 7.8 million bags expected this year, Luis Munoz, chief executive officer of Colombia's National Federation of Coffee Growers, said in Bogota after a news conference today. That would be the most since 11.5 million bags in 2008, according to the coffee federation's data.
The crop will improve in the second half of 2012 from the first six months of the year, when plants were damaged by heavy rainfall, Munoz told reporters. A weather pattern, known as La Nina, that brought above-average rainfall to Colombia has ended, President Juan Manuel Santos said May 4.
Coffee futures have fallen 33 percent in a year as traders forecast a bigger crop in Brazil, the largest producer of Arabica beans favored by brewers such as Starbucks Corp.
Each bag of coffee weighs 60 kilograms (132 pounds).

Haiti's Michael Brun Talks EDM Stardom and Label
By Jacob Katel
Things have never been easy for platinum-selling, Grammy-nominated, neo-soul crooner Anthony Hamilton. Before briefly touching superstardom with his 2003 So So Def hit Comin' from Where I'm From, Hamilton bounced from short-lived label to short-lived label. Hamilton, who honed his gritty chops singing in his Charlotte, North Carolina, church choir, reached age 30 without any sign of real success. That was when he put together his latest release, Southern Comfort, recorded between 2000 and 2002, which was promptly shelved. Less assured than his subsequent albums, this LP is written from the always refreshing perspective of a guy who hasn't got a pot to piss in. "I can't walk down the street 'cause people looking at me like I just robbed the neighborhood Circle K," begins "They Don't Know," the album's first track. Southern Comfort's tales of struggle are perhaps prescient for the next stage in Hamilton's career, as he threatens to drop into obscurity again. His last album of original material, Ain't Nobody Worryin'in 2005, did only a fraction of Comin' From's sales, and Southern Comfort, released on the Merovingian record label and barely publicized, probably won't sell much either. But if it brings Hamilton back to a place where he can make overachieving midtempo hum-alongs such as "Magnolia's Room" and "Don't Say What You Won't Do" Southern Comfort's standout tracks we, at least, won't be any poorer for it.

Hi there again.
Me and my guild did ICC and tried out the new encounters.
At the end of the run healers complained that I was a Papper tank. They didn't say at what boss but as my other tank as a dk I'm confused why they said that.
I've some gear that I can switch out to get more avoidance but then they complain on my hp. They actually said I should gem for avoidance instead of having stamina gems on all my gear, which I think is kinda strange as no tank I've ever seen or any of the guides here advocate.
My armory
The dk's armory
I've some trinkets and rings in backpack also:
Ashen Band of Greater Courage
Glyph of Indomitability
Abomination's Bloody Ring
I also won Bonebreaker Scepter
I have 47 EoF and thinking on getting cloak or belt as they are the most upgrade/cost.
Thanks for any help :)

I for one don't want to finish on the Wirral (nothing personal to the leisure peninsular) Still plenty of time for them to see sense, but the worry is that if it drags out people will drift elsewhere.
Just a throway thought. If the city want the route reversed then it would still use the roads but clear them earlier. What if the course was starting from Birkenhead as is but after Sefton park in Liverpool, it were to go into town along the water front as the half marathon does finishing at say Kings Dock with a tweak or 2 thus opening the city cenre roads earlier ?
Nice one ! Must have the tunnel exit plus drums.....Seems this is almost universally thought to be the DB's. I don't have a huge preference for a finish on the Strand, and Kings Dock would be a compromise worth having. The water front from the prom is still a big draw, and the finish would be running towards the Liver Building, Finishing within sight I think would tick the grandstand finish seekers....What you have to remember though in there's a bloke who sells ice cream by the end of Jericho Lane and the council might object.....
DH4 - all of this has been considered over the last two years. Keep in mind there is nothing wrong with the course we have in place.
Use of the promenade in the context of a marathon is difficult from a safety perspective as there is restricted vehicle access for first aid. it would also be the last 5 miles of the marathon - notwithstanding the fact that it would be impossible to Jericho Lane for any length of time.
Trust me, whatever you think will work we have already assessed - and it won't work for one reason or another.
I just find it amazing the short-sightedness to LCC and catering for its waterfront businesses.
Take the event as a whole, inevitably it will inconvenience many, but it will benefit many more
Can you imagine the London Marathon being cancelled because it affected trade in certain areas?
Surely to god the sheer foot traffic of random spectators, never mind family and friends and participants, gives any city's finances a huge shot in the arm when an event of this magnitude takes place.
Frankly ridiculous...
A confirmed £1.4 million economic benefit to the city identified in the first year. Clearly didn't go into the correct tills as it has largely been overlooked. Seems the suggestion of lost income due to the marathon is only of relevance depending on geographical location.
Alan, have you thought to re-submit your Plan B at a time when people are in the office to receive it? It's possible that it's not reached the right desk as it was a weekend?
It has been received. I requested confirmation of receipt on Monday.
And STILL no contact from them... staggering... and yet they profess to want to 'work with BTR Liverpool to resolve the matter'. Unbelievable.
In their eyes it maybe 8 months away, but we as runners need to plan training,maybe around other events we want or need to participate in and book accommodation. That 8 months will soon disappear. Liverpool council need to communicate quickly or this marathon that brings over a million pounds into the economy of Liverpool will be lost. Chester are on a win win with this as it stands.
Alan, I really do admire your perseverance.
PS I'm hanging back on Chester.
hang in there Alan, i think u have a lot of support and people can see the hard work that u put in
perhaps u can get a little possey and storm the council building demand some answersI still cant believe that there are complaints about loss of trade, were those retailers complaining not in Liverpool for the last 2 marathons!!! I still cant get over the fact that it took us ages to get food as the restaurants were rammed!!! It surely is never that busy on a sat night in October!!!
Judith, thats precisely the point I'm making, the council see it as a long time away, and they have things more pressing to deal with. To get this moving the onus is on the Organisers to progress this or it will not happen.
and Mrs 3medals are you coming doing Manchester?
LIVERPOOL MARATHON CANCELLATION CONFIRMED. Further to my latest proposal to Liverpool City Council which introduced an element of (simple) revision to the use of the waterfront roads AND allowed access to the Liverpool ONE car park I have been advised that LCC is unable to 'accept my offer'.
No explanation, no dialogue or discussion. Just no.
Despite the claims of Mayor Anderson last week that discussion would continue I can confrm that has been none.
Consequently I will launch the 1st Wirral Half Marathon and 10K shortly (to be hosted on marathon day, Sunday 13th October) now that LCC have finally declined (without explanation) the marathon the running community deserves.
Sorry to one and all but I really couldn't have done any more and I shall prepare a full report about LCC involvement in this event going back to 2006. It will make for compelling reading after which you will wonder how we have any running events in the city. It's an absolute disgrace.
What's particularly reprehensible is the lack of explanation. No dialogue or discussion and yet Mayor Anderson gives the impression that LCC will be making a concerted effort to ensure the race is retained. KEEP POLITICS OUT OF SPORT.
Or at least be open and honest about the reasons for cancellation.
Personally I don't shop at Liverpool ONE so can't really say I'd boycott the place - not that that would any impact mind!
Chester's gain this year I think. Polticians change so hopefully so will attitudes in time. Don't give up or let them grind you down.

Post subject: Evidence proves "Monster Waves" theory
Freak waves spotted from space
The shady phenomenon of freak waves as tall as 10 storey buildings had finally been proved, the European Space Agency (Esa) said on Wednesday.
Sailors often whisper of monster waves when ships sink mysteriously but, until now, no one quite believed them.
As part of a project called MaxWave - which was set up to test the rumours - two Esa satellites surveyed the oceans.
During a three week period they detected 10 giant waves, all of which were over 25m (81ft) high.
Strange disappearances
Over the last two decades more than 200 super-carriers - cargo ships over 200m long - have been lost at sea. Eyewitness reports suggest many were sunk by high and violent walls of water that rose up out of calm seas.
But for years these tales of towering beasts were written off as fantasy; and many marine scientists clung to statistical models stating monstrous deviations from the normal sea state occur once every 1,000 years.
Wolfgang Rosenthal, GKSS Research Centre, Germany
"Two large ships sink every week on average," said Wolfgang Rosenthal, of the GKSS Research Centre in Geesthacht, Germany. "But the cause is never studied to the same detail as an air crash. It simply gets put down to 'bad weather'."
To prove the phenomenon or lay the rumours to rest, a consortium of 11 organisations from six EU countries founded MaxWave in December 2000.
As part of the project, Esa tasked two of its Earth-scanning satellites, ERS-1 and ERS-2, to monitor the oceans with their radar.
The radars sent back "imagettes" - pictures of the sea surface in a rectangle measuring 10 by 5km (6 by 2.5 miles), which were taken every 200km (120 miles).
Around 30,000 separate imagettes were produced by the two satellites during a three-week period in 2001 - and the data was mathematically analysed.
Esa says the survey revealed 10 massive waves - some nearly 30m (100 ft) high.
"The waves exist in higher numbers than anyone expected," said Dr Rosenthal.
Wave map
Ironically, while the MaxWave research was going on, two tourist liners endured terrifying ordeals. The Breman and the Caledonian Star cruisers had their bridge windows smashed by 30m waves in the South Atlantic.
The Bremen was left drifting for two hours after the encounter, with no navigation or propulsion.
Now that their existence is no longer in dispute, it is time to gain a better understanding of these rogues.
In the next phase of the research, a project called WaveAtlas will use two years' worth of imagettes to create a worldwide atlas of freak wave events.
The goal is to find out how these strange cataclysmic phenomena may be generated, and which regions of the seas are most at risk.
Dr Rosenthal concluded: "We know some of the reasons for the rogue waves, but we do not know them all."

Typical. Eyewitnesses over the years have reported huge waves of water swamping vessels, but scientists have said "exaggeration, waves that high cannot be physically generated."
Well there you go, satellite cameras have seen them now so it must be so, "but of course, we don't understand the mechanism at present."
Giant cetaceans? Rubbish!

Watch just how quickly a classic Fortean phenomenon becomes seamlessly integrated into the fabric of scientific orthodoxy.
Although the recent
'Freak Waves'
programme on the subject did show that the theoretical mathematics do lead to a sort of harmonic, mega-wave version of "high C" on the high seas.

Freak wave damages cruise ship, injuring 4
By The Associated Pres
A seven-story wave damaged a cruise ship returning from the Bahamas over the weekend, smashing windows, flooding more than 60 cabins and injuring four passengers.
The Norwegian Dawn was diverted from its route when the ship ran into rough weather on the way back to New York on Saturday.
The 965-foot-long vessel docked in the Charleston harbor for repairs, and departed for New York early yesterday after a Coast Guard inspection, officials said. It was expected back in New York by noon today.
"The ship was hit by a freak wave that caused two windows to break in two different cabins," Norwegian Cruise Line said in a statement. It said 62 cabins flooded and four passengers suffered cuts and bruises. The wave reached as high as deck 10 on the ship, company spokeswoman Susan Robison said yesterday.
James Fraley, who was taking a honeymoon cruise with his wife, said they called their loved ones as the wave pounded the boat because they thought the ship was going down.
"It was pure hell. We're talking ... waves hitting the 10th floor, knocking Jacuzzis on the 12th floor overboard, people sleeping in hallways in life jackets," Fraley told WCBD-TV in Charleston. "Just pure pandemonium."
The ship's hull was damaged, but the vessel was not taking on water, said Keith Moore of the Coast Guard Group Charleston.
"All the passengers had donned personal flotation devices as a precaution," Moore told The (Charleston) Post and Courier.
The cruise line said that passengers whose cabins were flooded were being flown home from Charleston and that the safety of the ship "was in no way compromised by this incident." Each passenger on the ship got a refund of half the trip's cost and a voucher for half the price of a future cruise, Robison said.
Fraley said cruise-ship employees also opened the bar. "They tried giving free alcohol away to make up for it," he said. "That's not going to do it."
The ship left New York last Sunday with 2,500 passengers aboard.
Robison said about 300 passengers decided not to return by boat. About 100 people were flown back to New York and the rest made their own arrangements, she said.

But Ive heard that cruises are not worth it anyway...
Read a book about those ships sinking many years back. Author put it down to metal fatigue which may contribute. (a ships not going to sink if the hull remains intact and it is able to retain positive bouyancy.) But also the fact that most sailors these days come from very poor nations, and so no one gets worked up when they die...

With regards to the first quote, its all very well considering the size of these super-carriers when paced in drydock with a human of "average" stature as a reference point. But put that same super-carriier in a body of water that covers roughly two-thirds of an entire planet... it's like trying to fill a fish tank with one piece of plankton!!
as to the second, with the greatest of respect, do give over
. Mother Nature has been doing this a lot longer that we've been around. Its only we, as a species, that has the audacity to consider this a personal act of aggression against us.
Besides, given the amount of grief we've given her over the years, she has every right to be somewhat peeved
I mean there's somewhere in the region of 7 billion people in the world and still growing!!
This wonderful, beautiful planet we live on has already just about reached saturation level. I say, lets have a MEGA superwave!!

Human_84, it is worded slightly akwardly, but I think the inference is that they rented cars, took trains, etc. from Charleston, South Carolina to their respective homes, rather than taking the Cruise Ship Company's offer of either being flown back to New York or waiting for the ship to be repaired.
