The Gartner technology hype cycle focused on emerging technologies visually represents on a curve the high and low expectations that accompany the adoption of breakthrough discoveries. It shows how Innovation Triggers lead to a period of inflated expectations, and subsequently to widespread disappointment. It is out of that dip, what the chart describes as a Trough of Disillusionment, that true productivity emerges [39]. We believe that blockchain technologies are now exiting this dip in expectations, making this the perfect time to focus on executing plans to build a customer base, gain strategic value, and create new revenue streams for the ARK business entity.
The way forward is to deliver solid and easy-to-use technology to enable new use cases and disrupt the existing ones. The key challenge here is to provide the tools and technology that makes this an easy switch, and this is where ARK's main vision originates. By working with and soliciting the input of adopters and the community, we continuously strive to improve the platform and to implement new features that meet evolving needs.
ARK is currently incorporated in France as a cooperative society known as an SCIC (Société coopérative d'intérêt collectif). It is the first of its kind in the crypto world, and one of the first blockchain projects to incorporate in the EU [40]. ARK has met with the AMF, which is similar to the SEC, to ensure regulatory compliance. ARK also has close ties to the French government and has contributed to Article 26 of the Loi Pacte and both Parliament reports on blockchain and cryptocurrency [46] [47].
The ARK team is rooted all over the world and has no main office. Team members come from the United States, France, Spain, Brazil, United Kingdom, Germany, the Netherlands, Slovenia, Finland, Bulgaria, Ukraine, and beyond. We have been expanding and hiring talent regardless of market conditions, and we hold multiple years' worth of working capital in various cryptocurrencies and fiat.
ARK's initial business strategy was to develop a solid foundation of technology to sustain custom solutions and applications built by others. With a newly redeveloped Core and large family of peripherals, ARK can now shift focus to the organizations and open source communities that will use the technology. ARK will use its own tools and ARK Logic templates to expand current offerings and attract developers in selected industries of interest. Following this, the ARK business entity will focus on providing true value to those that need application-specific blockchains. ARK's toolset will always be versatile enough for any use case, but the ARK business entity intends to offer help and guidance for specific industries through tools and tailored features. Focusing on key industries will drive adoption as it reduces barriers to entry.
Our value-centric proposition, in other words the specific value offered to customers that drives purchase or adoption, rests upon an API-centric technology solution. We understand this latter API proposition as a distinguishing feature that singularly positions ARK as a provider of flexible, sophisticated, and easy to use blockchain applications [42].
By supplying industry-tailored tools and solutions, ARK helps organizations improve their product offerings, address customer needs, and expand operations through blockchain technologies. The community and ARK digital marketplace further facilitate growth with support networks and additional offerings that complement the features of the ARK Core.
The benefits of the ARK Core component-based architecture extend far beyond a modular and flexible codebase. ARK Core is the basic foundation for a host of novel business-oriented applications that are assembled with plugins, which can be fully customized with ARK Logic and plugin development tools. Developed in JavaScript and TypeScript, an ARK plugin can be anything from a simple API expanding and enabling storage of additional data on the blockchain, to a brand new HTTP server with custom underlying logic, delivering new application interfaces and support for any business need. Our range of available SDKs, libraries, and utilities free developers to concentrate their focus on business application development.
Every plugin can introduce its own licensing and support conditions, all of which can be stored on the ARK mainnet in the form of a transaction. Some plugins will run solely on bridgechains, and some will run on the mainnet as needed. For the plugin to reach mainnet, a wide consensus between public delegates is necessary.
In this context, the digital marketplace is a convenient destination to discover, buy and sell applications, services, and solutions built with ARK's technology stack. The marketplace operates on transaction types to be introduced on the ARK Public Network to connect service providers, developers, startups and larger enterprises.
ARK plugins, whether released to the digital marketplace or not, will be tied to the business and bridgechain on-chain registration transactions that ARK users will complete before developing on the network. These transactions will retain information about the registering entity, and will thus block bad actors from distributing malicious code by posing as well-established developers. Details of these registration transactions are as follows:
Business Registration on ARK Public Network. An individual, team or company will be able to issue a business registration transaction in the same way a delegate registration transaction is issued. The proposed fee for this transaction will be high enough to ensure that only serious projects are allowed into the ecosystem. The terms of the registration transaction will require detailed information from the registering party including website, GitHub, VAT ID if applicable, contact email, etc. This transaction will serve as a required first step towards the next phase, in which the registered business on the ARK Public Network can request a bridgechain launch via the ARK Deployer GUI.
Bridgechain configuration on ARK Public Network via ARK Deployer. An ARK address that is registered as a business or organization can send a bridgechain registration. This will serve as an input to the ARK Deployer which will use this address to generate the chain specifications such as genesis block, initial wallets and passwords, mainnet, devnet and testnet specifications. This establishes the authenticity of the bridgechain, opening doors to certain strategic value opportunities within the ARK ecosystem, such as the Powered by ARK Program. Unregistered chains will not have access to these same resources.
Entry into the Powered by ARK Program via bridgechain registration simply means that the team behind the project is serious, capable, and that the project was assessed and evaluated by the ARK community and team. Not all registered bridgechains will be eligible for the Powered by ARK Program, which is centrally managed by ARK.io.
New transaction types and plugin deployment using ARK Logic go hand in hand with the functionalities of the ARK Deployer, which serves as the primary vehicle for building, launching, and managing blockchains. The deployer user can register a new bridgechain and preselect the set of modules and plugins included in the bridgechain launch. This will enable users to launch custom bridgechain specifications adapted to specific industries of interest and to customize their chain for any use case with third party tools and plugins.
The ARK business entity will soon start using its own tools to tailor solutions and add-ons for specific industries. Players in these industries will have ready-made tools out of the box to utilize in deploying their blockchain solutions, using ARK Logic. As more entities in these fields use ARK technology, the building blocks can be refined and expanded such that the industry tools are continually updated. After creating industry-specific toolkits and ARK Logic templates, the ARK business entity will promote adoption of these solutions through strategic partnerships, to facilitate the usage of the solutions among organizations, and form strategic partnerships within these sectors as needed.
Blockchain has the power to revolutionize both game design and player interaction with gaming ecosystems. Decentralized infrastructure enables immutable ownership of in-game digital assets, completely transforming the control and flexibility that players currently have in centralized gaming environments. What's more, persistent issues with hacking, duplication, and theft are mitigated through the encryption provided by blockchain networks, all leading to massive increases in security for both gaming infrastructure and players' digital possessions.
Exchange of assets between games may also be enabled with a common game asset protocol built on a network of ARK blockchains connected to a marketplace for non-game digital assets and currencies. Non-fungible tokens allow for serialized, uniquely identified, transferable in-game assets.
Blockchain transforms in-game mechanics and processes to promote trust and accountability within gaming environments. A re-imagined system for payments and monetization could lead to huge cost savings for both developers and gamers, leading to increasingly fair and optimized in-game economics.
By utilizing ARK blockchain technology, the gaming sector will be able to tackle key challenges related to security, ownership, and fairness. Faster and more flexible payment systems, new ways of building credibility, and improved transparency will create further opportunities throughout the industry.
As the IoT industry grows, it is increasingly plagued with issues surrounding security, poor connectivity, and slow performance, all of which limit its ability to fully penetrate the commercial and industrial sectors. Industry leaders are crying out for a scalable solution that will enhance security, improve network performance, and reduce the reliance on centralized cloud servers, and this is where blockchain technology shines.
With its innate immutability and decentralized nature, blockchain technology addresses the key challenges that the IoT industry faces, from device security to the authentication and encryption of information.
IoT devices running over decentralized networks benefit from both low risk of being compromised via a single point of failure and reduced reliance on expensive, centralized data centers. Moreover, a lean, scalable network capable of supporting millions of connected devices reduces bottlenecks and delivers improved network performance and reliability.
By utilizing ARK technology, the IoT industry can benefit from a more secure, robust, and resilient network architecture that doesn't fall victim to data collusion, network tampering, or single points of failure - all while delivering significant cost savings and efficiency gains.
Governments and public sector entities around the world have been experimenting with blockchain technology over the past few years. This testing is now turning into adoption in many instances, as the value of blockchain-powered infrastructure and public services is recognized. By utilizing blockchain technology, government operations can increase efficiencies and more effectively deliver public services. Additionally, blockchain technology streamlines internal processes, which can lead to widespread cost savings.
Decentralized blockchain infrastructure removes single points of failure and provides additional layers of security and protection for critical government systems and citizen data. Blockchain secures access to citizen records, deters fraud, and upholds compliance, thereby improving trust throughout the system.
Specific blockchain use-cases in government environments include digital identity, voting, payments, registries, and record management. By transforming the way data is generated, processed, and shared, blockchain based services allow citizens to monitor how their personal information is used.
ARK blockchain technology offers the government sector a range of benefits including increased operational efficiencies through streamlined processes, greater cost savings through disintermediation, improved trust and transparency, and enhanced data security.
Limited visibility and inaccuracies across logistics networks are serious and persistent issues in the supply chain management industry. Lags and black holes can seemingly place inventory in multiple places at once, or more worryingly, nowhere at all. This poses a critical problem for a fast-paced industry that relies on getting the right product to the right place, at the right time. Decentralized digital ledgers increase by an exponential factor the capacity for oversight of player activity across global supply chain networks.
Implemented into logistics operations and shipment tracking, the consensus-based blockchain ledger can be leveraged across a supply chain to link nodes, or points of transit, which would be required to agree with finality where inventory is at any one time.
Moreover, decentralized logic and workflows allow actions to be executed based on predefined conditions. This eliminates the 'middle-man' whether that be intermediary systems or labor, generating significant cost savings for supply chain organizations.
ARK technology can uniquely offer the supply chain industry greater oversight and control of inventory, enhanced data security, and process automation, all resulting in increased efficiency and cost reduction.
In addition to building the ARK Blockchain Platform, the ARK business entity is committed to engaging in outreach initiatives that fulfill multiple concrete goals that add strategic value to the ecosystem, spread awareness about ARK solutions, and educate the public about the tremendous potential of blockchain technologies. These initiatives include:
To date, ARK has sponsored nearly a dozen blockchain conferences and expos. Conferences are useful to present ARK achievements and progress to the greater blockchain community. They encourage adoption and allow peer review and feedback to take place. In addition, conferences position ARK in front of organizations and enterprises looking to utilize blockchain technology.
ARK seeks to expose budding talent at universities and campuses globally to the numerous advantages that the ARK platform offers. To date, ARK has sponsored nearly a dozen hackathons, which are short competitions among teams of computer science students and developers who create projects that are judged and awarded prizes. ARK is also utilizing a strategic partnership with Major League Hacking to create an ARK blockchain workshop. Going forward, ARK intends to organize virtual hackathons, where teams need not be in the same geographical location to compete.
Building a strong community is important to the success of any ecosystem. Agents of the ARK business entity attend meetups to present on ARK technology. In 2019, the ARK organization will launch an Advocate program in which ARK agents will train, certify, and fund ARK enthusiasts to deliver presentations and even host ARK-specific meetups of their own.
The Powered by ARK Program is designed to allow all projects building with ARK technology to form relationships and build stronger ties to the overall ecosystem. Once accepted, bridgechains in the PBA Program will be able to directly interface and collaborate with ARK, the community, and other bridgechains — strengthening the ecosystem and helping to maximize their success. Bridgechains in the PBA Program benefit from priority support from the ARK Development Team, and projects that reach higher levels in the program can benefit from ARK outreach initiatives that can increase awareness of the project.
The ARK business entity has recently recruited market research experts to identify pain points in industries of interest and to propose ARK-based solutions for them. As organizations and entities adopt ARK technology, their respective communities can merge with the ARK community to bring greater strategic value to the overall ecosystem.
ARK partners with businesses, organizations, and other projects whenever tangible strategic value exists. Partners include blockchain projects, exchanges, service providers, and others. For the ARK business entity, strategic partnerships afford industry access, exposure, and increased capabilities.
The ARK business entity is fully aware of the significant and untapped support available from ARK Public Network delegates. Delegates launch campaigns to attract votes which usually include plans to deploy additional community services beyond securing the network. The ARK business entity has in turn the capacity to offer seed funding beyond the block rewards delegates receive. This funding can quickly add community impact to a delegate's deployed service.
Numerous programs are in place to reward community members who help build the ARK project by contributing to the ARK GitHub repository and beyond. The ARK Development & Security Bounty Program awards community developers with ARK for contributing to both project development and ARK's rigorously maintained documentation repositories. Participation in this area has been enhanced through ARK's bounty program (organized in partnership with Bugcrowd) focusing on discovering vulnerabilities in the code. For non-technical community members, ARK regularly runs contests involving expanding the ARK presence on social networks or growing the community by educating others about ARK core values and goals.
ARK has a strong presence on Slack, Discord, Reddit, Bitcoin Talk, Twitter, Minds, Steemit, Telegram, and Instagram. The ARK business entity publishes a detailed blog that acts as a hub for public relations. ARK maintains a range of educational videos on YouTube, and presence on YouTube will be expanded throughout 2019. ARK also hosts a weekly audio podcast, available on iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, Soundcloud, Spotify, and Castbox.
ARK's in-house development team focuses on the core elements of the ARK technology stack. As such, they must prioritize development in areas such as the Core, SDKs, wallets, block explorer, Deployer, and marketplace. The ARK Tier 0 Program comes into play for cases where ideas could be executed outside of these main areas, for example in the form of plugins. Community developers would be able to browse the listed Tier 0 projects and offer their talent and expertise to execute the project.

This weekend was National Scrapbook Day. (for those who aren't scrapbookers, this is a day that celebrates scrapbooking - but I think it's just a good excuse to get together and share an addiction, LOL) Well, I didn't scrapbook at all. I really wanted to go to the Thornhill Cherished Scrapbooks store and crop with some ladies from the online forums, but since I was away all weekend last weekend, I didn't think I would even suggest the idea to John.
Instead, we travelled all the way up to Mount Forest for the day to check out some new trailers. What we saw, we liked! The price was fairly good too. Until we actually bite the bullet and buy one, I won't share any pics online, but since Saturday, our thoughts and time have been consumed with this. Hopefully we will have a new trailer on our seasonal site by the time we start up our camping season.
John leaves today for England. He, and his brother Dave, are going to visit their other brother for a week and a half. ...and before you ask, yes, he wanted me to go with him, but it just wasn't feasable as Spencer is also away starting Wednesday with the Divisional Youth Band on his big trip to Calgary. It will be nice for John and Dave to spend this time together.
Things with Matt seem to be easing up a little. He seems to be handling things a little easier. I think we discovered where some of the anxiety is coming from. There is a group of boys in his computer engineering class who are being quite mean to him everyday. You know, some kids are able to ignore it, but Matt can't ... and it's constant. I think I'd feel a little anxious about school too if that was happening to me ... let alone having a disorder which makes it difficult to understand how to relate to others and why someone might be making fun of you. The world can be a very confusing place for him. Anyway, I emailed his computer teacher, but I don't know what good it will do as he's a very old-school type and I'm not so sure that he understands the disorder. I may need to involve his SERT on this one.

How to recognize women's heart attack symptoms
0 (0 Likes / 0 Dislikes)
[♪♪] [howdini - get yourself a guru] Would you be able to know if you were having a heart attack? Do you know what the symptoms are? You may be surprised to hear what some of the symptoms are, especially in women. Here to help us with this very important health issue is Dr. Suzanne Steinbaum, a cardiologist who specializes in women's heart disease at Lenox Hill Hospital in New York. Hi, Dr. Steinbaum. >>Hi. Dr. Steinbaum, are there distinct, recognizable symptoms of the onset of a heart attack? In women it gets a little more challenging to diagnose. In fact, you might not see the typical squeezing chest pain that you see in men. In fact, women sometimes present with shortness of breath, jaw pain, back pain tingling, flu-like symptoms. It's very, very different. They might just have nausea. It's very difficult and challenging to diagnose heart disease in women. We always think of pain radiating down your left side as the real indicator that you're having a heart attack. Is that always the case? Women can present in so many different ways. In fact, recently I've had a patient who presented with having neck pain, and this pain was radiating down her right arm. She experienced the pain when walking, and it went away when she rested. She had an MRI of her neck, and she was actually diagnosed with having spinal stenosis, a little bulging actually of one of the discs. And they felt that the symptoms were due to this. Well, we looked at her risk factors. She had high cholesterol, a family history and high blood pressure. And we did a stress test, and it was extremely abnormal. She ended up having a coronary angiogram, looking at the insides of the arteries, and she had a 99 percent blockage of the top part of the heart in one of the major, major arteries. So it's very important. Pay attention to your risk, and pay attention to your symptoms. And know that if these symptoms are happening with exertion and relieved with rest, this is the most important thing to understand. [Dr. Suzanne Steinbaum, Director, Women & Heart Disease, Lenox Hill Hospital] And then look at your risk factors, and if you have them, it's very important you get evaluated for your heart. [Lisa Birnbach, Howdini] Dr. Steinbaum, what if you're with someone who seems to be exhibiting more than one of these symptoms at a time? What should we do if a friend is with us? I think what we need to understand, first of all, is each woman has a risk. Are they in fact at risk of heart disease? It doesn't come out of nowhere. It's not like you're on the treadmill and you're getting short of breath, oh, clearly this is a heart attack. But if you have risk factors such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol, you smoke, you have a family history, diabetes, you're not really an exerciser and may be a little overweight, these risk factors are what's associated with heart disease. So take these into consideration when you're looking at your friend. And if in fact you see your friend having chest pain, shortness of breath or exhibiting these symptoms, chewing two aspirins is very important. It helps prevent the platelets from clotting and sticking together and a heart attack from developing. And call 911. Chewing aspirin, not swallowing? It's better to chew it. In the emergency situation, it gets absorbed much quicker and it actually can prevent a full-blown heart attack. So trust yourself. If you think you're having a heart attack, it's likely that you're having a heart attack. I think we know. I think if you pay attention, we know. And if you think it's happening, better be safe than sorry. Absolutely. Thank you so much, Doctor. >>Sure. For Howdini, I'm Lisa Birnbach. [chimes jingling] [howdini - www.howdini.com]

Did Huntgate Set a New Tone in How Cryptic/PWE Will Handle Exploits in the Future?
In the whole mess that is Huntgate it nearly went unnoticed that a user named "Blister" called out the upcoming changes to Salvage in Module 15 before the official feedback thread went up. They obviously weren't willing go into any specifics about the "source", but given that they were right, we think it's fair to hand out some credibility here. That assumption is important, because the user later followed up by making additional statements about the handling of Huntgate:
Here's a Little Historic Context
This is certainly an interesting quote, because it actually fits history fairly well. The devs for the longest time did not care too much about banning players. At least that was the overall perception. Back in the day, the "Legit Community" was build around the fact that you could literally not run dungeons without using some sort of tricks. Exploiting was the norm, and specifically dungeon exploits were hardly sanctioned at all. The devs always banned for stuff that directly impacted the economy or their own wallet, but the list of boss glitches that went unpunished is long. Over the years major dungeon exploits became less common, but the impression that support doesn't properly deal with cheaters remained.
That's also one of the reason why we around here have decided to post exploits. It was to apply some pressure to fix stuff, to hold the devs accountable. Not properly dealing with exploits in the past also is key to understand why the punishments in some cases this time around were labeled draconic, and the shitstorm, although the devs just got rid of a bunch of cheaters, was insane. Comparing the Huntgate infractions, AD generated mostly, with earlier stuff almost makes them look negligible. What might be the case however is that we witness a shift in how the devs deal with exploits altogether.
Some Concerns Remain
If the post above is indeed true, it means some higher-ups want to fight the environment the game itself created, that they change their approach from reactive to proactive. That's certainly a good thing, but as "Blister" in the last paragraph correctly points out, comes with concerns nonetheless. Banning for something that was "accepted behavior" for the longest time at least feels weird, even if it is technically covered by the ToS. Now we're of course back at the ongoing controversy of who's to blame, the players for exploiting or the devs for letting them?
We do however assume that they're not banning for exploiting Valindra in Module 2, but for more recent, and more obvious, stuff. If there's indeed a change of approach however it definitely can't hurt to also become a little more transparent about what is considered an exploit and who has been punished. Then this could really be a major gain for both the game and its community.
What's your take on this topic ? Will the devs now ban more frequently, and for a wider range of violations? Share your thoughts and experience on our social channels, in the comments below, or visit our message board!

Takeaway style spicy oriental chicken
I really fancied a Wagamama-style dish at the weekend and this one's delicious- lots of lovely flavours but also lots of speed foods and super-healthy! If you haven't discovered Sriracha chilli sauce yet and you love chilli, you have to get some! It's super hot (but not unbearable) and only 0.5 syns per tablespoon. You can get it on Amazon- click here but I got mine in Sainsburys, I've seen it in Tesco's and if you are lucky enough to have an Oriental supermarket near you ...

3100 19th St. NW
Rochester, MN 55901
Summer is here!
It is easy to tell when school is out of session by just coming to the RAC. Our family friendly club gives students a great environment to stay active while at the same time staying out of trouble (hopefully). One parent once said to me "the RAC is our drug prevention program." That is a powerful statement and we are happy to be a place that can have such a positive impact on families' lives.
It is also important to know that children must be 13 years old to use the club unattended. Otherwise, they must be checked into the Neighborhood or Kids Club or with a guardian that is 13 years of age or older.
Because the number of teenage users increase when school is out of session, so does the challenge of managing the behavior that teens sometimes cause. Whether or not you have children as a part of your membership, it is important to know that we do deal with behavior that we deem harmful to the experience of others. If you have children, please talk with them about expectations. We do not tolerate foul language, improper use of cell phones that go against our policies, horseplay, etc. Please also talk to them about sneaking in their friends. This behavior is not tolerated and will result in loss of membership privileges.
Poor behavior results in parents being called and possibly membership suspension. We want everyone's experience to be positive. If you ever see anything that is concerning to you, please do not hesitate to let a staff member know as soon as possible. The sooner we know, the quicker we can take any action if needed.
For those of you that have children that are 13 years old or older but may not look like it, we have a clipboard that they should sign-in at the fitness desk. When our staff notice someone that does not look 13 years of age, they check the clipboard and this prevents children from being asked multiple times how old they are and is a better experience for all.
We hope you all have a great summer. See you at the RAC!

Outdoor Locker Rooms
Keys Available at Outdoor Desk
Did you know that you can check out a locker key for our outdoor locker rooms when you are at the outdoor pool? This may be a great alternative to using the locker rooms inside if all you are doing is checking in through the outdoor gate this summer. Ask the outdoor desk attendant for a locker key.
On Friday, June 14th we are asking all members to wear blue for Men's Health Awareness Month! Members can put their name on a slip at the fitness desk for a drawing for RAC prizes.
Benching for Hope!
One of our Directors chooses a charity that the management team and the Rochester Athletic Club team supports with action and dollars each year. Our Fitness Director, Steve Boring, has worked with HopeKids for several years and is leading the Director charity this year.
Every year some of the strongest men and women in the world come together in Minnesota for RELENTLESS, an invitation only Powerlifting meet where athletes raise money and lift as much weight as possible for families with children who have life threatening medical conditions. All the proceeds raised by the lifters goes to Hope Kids.
On June 12th from 10:00 am to 5:00 pm the RAC will be supporting this cause by providing BENCHING FOR HOPE! A competition bench press will be placed on the fitness floor, and for every bench press rep performed, the RAC will donate $1 up to $3,000! There are no weight restrictions or limits, just show up and help us raise money for this great cause! This is open to all members and we encourage you to have fun and bench press for a great cause with us!
There will be three RAC employees/members competing at Relentless this year. If you are interested in donating to their personal fundraiser pages, you can check them out below:

The Mystery of Flannan Isle
Created | Updated Nov 17, 2006
Ay, though we hunted high and low
And hunted everywhere
Of the three men's fate we found no trace
Of any kind in any place
But a door ajar and an untouched meal
And an overtoppled chair...
- from Flannan Isle by Wilfrid Gibson
The light of the Flannan Isle lighthouse used to flash twice every 30 seconds. In good weather, it could be seen from 20 miles away. More often than not, mist enshrouded the island and visibility was markedly reduced. At such times, the value of the beacon to local shipping was incalculable. A three-man crew maintained the lamp at the top of the lighthouse. A rotation system ensured a change of personnel every 14 days. Once a fortnight, a service vessel came from Breasclete and a new crew would be installed. Flannan Isle was not a place to stay for any length of time.
At 23 metres in height, the lighthouse was - and is - an unremarkable structure. Built in 1899 on the largest of seven rocky outcrops, it is situated some 15 miles west of the Isle of Lewis, on the outer fringes of the Hebrides. On 7 December, 1900, Head Keeper James Ducat arrived at the lighthouse to begin another tour of duty. His First Assistant, William Ross, had been taken ill and a local man, Donald Macarthur, had taken his place. Macarthur was an Occasional Keeper, who only filled in when regular crew members were unavailable. Second Assistant Thomas Marshall made up the trio.
Accompanying the three men on the relief vessel was Robert Muirhead, the Superintendent of Lighthouses. Routine inspections were a part of his brief and Muirhead always liked to keep in close touch with the men under his supervision. The Superintendent spent some time on the island, reassuring himself that everything was running smoothly. He had a brief discussion with the Head Keeper concerning improvements in monitoring, then bade him and the others farewell. He shook each man by the hand as he departed the island. The Superintendent was the last person to see any of them alive.
During the following week, as was standard practice, the island was kept under periodic observation from land. A telescope would be trained on Flannan Isle at regular intervals. In case of emergency, the lighthouse-keepers could hoist an appropriate flag and assistance would be sent out to them. The lighthouse was often obscured by mist, however, and there was no guarantee that the signal would be seen. It was this very problem that Ducat and Muirhead had been discussing on the 7 December.
During the two weeks thereafter, a heavy mist enveloped the island. The lighthouse would not be visible again from land until 29 December. The light from the lamp was easier to make out. Night observations were also a matter of routine. The lamp was visible on the 7 December, but was obscured by bad weather on the following four evenings. It was seen again on the 12 December. After that, it was not visible for over a fortnight.
On the 15 December, the SS Archtor was in the vicinity of the island. At close to midnight, Captain Holman looked out from the deck of the steamer, expecting to catch a glimpse of the light from Flannan Isle, as per usual. Holman was close enough to the island and the weather sufficiently moderate for him to be certain to see it. But no light was visible. The relief vessel from Breasclete did not arrive at Flannan Island on 21 December. A run of particularly bad weather had delayed the SS Hesperus and it was unable to reach the lighthouse until noon on Boxing Day, five days later.
As a matter of protocol, the lighthouse crew were expected to assist the incoming men, who would row from the Hesperus in a smaller boat to land on the island. A flag was usually flown to show that the incumbent crew had spotted the relief vessel and the men themselves would come out to greet the new arrivals. On this occasion, however, as the Hesperus drew close to the island, there was no flag flying and the lighthouse crew were nowhere to be seen. Captain Harvie, on board the Hesperus, gave orders to sound the siren. There was no response.
The steam whistle was also blown, to similar lack of effect. The boat would simply have to land at Flannan Isle without the usual assistance. Joseph Moore, the Third Assistant Keeper, jumped onto the landing craft alongside the Hesperus Second Mate, McCormack and together they rowed ashore. With nobody to assist them from the landward side, it was a difficult job to pull up the boat. Moore had to jump ashore himself to grab the mooring rope and throw it aboard. As McCormack secured the launch, Moore went up to check on the Station.
The outer door to the lighthouse was locked. Moore had a set of keys. He unlocked the building and went inside. The place was deserted. There was no sign of Ducat, Marshall or Macarthur. The clock on the inner wall had stopped. There was no fire in the grate and all the beds were empty. A meal had been prepared but was uneaten.
Moore hurried back to the launch. Breathlessly, he explained to McCormack that the crew were missing. The Second Mate joined him ashore and together the two men mounted a thorough search of the Island. The original crew were not there. They had simply disappeared. Moore and McCormack returned to the Hesperus and gave Captain Harvie the bad news. He instructed the Third Assistant to return to the Island with three others to take temporary charge of the lighthouse. Meantime, the Hesperus would return to Breasclete to inform the relevant authorities.
A telegram was sent by Harvie to the Secretary of the Northern Lighthouse Commissioners later that same day, informing them of the disappearance. On Flannan Isle, Joseph Moore and the others made an even more rigorous search of the lighthouse and a picture of events soon began to emerge. As far as they could make out, everything had been running smoothly on the island until the afternoon of the 15 December. Accurate record-keeping was mandatory for all lighthouse crew and the Head Keeper, Ducat, had conscientiously compiled reports up until the 13. Draft entries for the 14 and 15 December had been written up on a slate. There had been a storm on the 14, according to the draft, but by the next morning it had blown itself out. There was no indication of any further problems.
Whatever had happened to the three men, it had happened to them that afternoon. Superintendent Muirhead joined the others at Flannan Isle on 29 December. His official report is the most detailed account of the state of the island at that time. The storm on the night of 14 December had clearly caused substantial damage. The jetty was warped and the railings were clearly battered. A store containing mooring ropes and crane handles had been washed away. The ropes from the box had become entangled on a temporary crane some 70 feet above the normal level of the sea.
Muirhead concluded that the men had left the lighthouse in order to secure this store against the storm. They had taken wet weather clothing and locked the outer door behind them. Then, Muirhead believed, they had either been blown off the edge of the rocks or - more likely - an unexpectedly large wave had swept over the top of them and dragged them out to sea. The first theory could be discounted, as the wind that day had been in a Westerly (uphill) direction. It was Muirhead's conclusion, therefore, that a freak wave - referred to in his report as a roller - was ultimately responsible for the men's disappearance. The sea had claimed them and nothing could have been done to prevent it. A new crew was installed on Flannan Isle and efforts were made to increase the effectiveness of daily monitoring. But the memory of the disappearance lived on.
In 1912, Wilfrid Gibson published his famous poem, Flannan Isle. The piece lacked historical accuracy, but it created a disturbing sense of danger and uncertainty. In many ways, it is this work, rather than the actual events, which captured the imagination of the public. It has inspired music and fiction1, and the inevitable crackpot theories. Aliens, mermaids and sea monsters have all been postulated as alternative explanations for the disappearance.
But no-one seriously disputes the findings of Superintendent Muirhead. It was not aliens or sea monsters that killed the unfortunate Keepers of Flannan Island - it was the Atlantic Ocean.

I have nine of yours down, all except Inside Out, but I'm pretty stumped on what to do with that tenth slot. I just took out Bridge of Spies this morning after missing the Eddie nomination, on the one hand one would typically look to SAG and perhaps Beasts of No Nation or Trumbo (especially featuring talent known on television, an asset for guilds where membership come from both mediums). On the other hand I can see something like Sicario proving general strength among the guilds on the way to a couple of tech nods at the Oscars.
It would be a great boost for Inside Out, and the underperforming Brooklyn as well. I have to confess I'm a little concerned about Carol with the guild awards, as well.ReplyCopy URL

My predictions for the PGA ten. The ones I'm confident about:
The Big Short
Mad Max: Fury Road
The Martian
The Revenant
All of which I see getting Oscar nominations (I have them ranked 1-7, not in that order of course). I also think a prestige pic from Spielberg should go down well here, so:
Bridge of Spies
Then I think, PGA being PGA will go for:
Star Wars: The Force Awakens
And the (sort of) wild card pick from me is:
Straight Outta Compton
If 'Sicario' can land a nomination here then I think that's a sign that it's got more momentum than we've been thinking. I've been looking through the possible wild card acting nominations (i.e. an acting nominee who didn't get a nod from Globes, SAG or Critics Choice) and I'm starting to like the look of Benicio Del Toro a lot. A meaty role, a former winner, etc. Also liking the look of Kristen Stewart (but that's another story, for another day).
Another I'd look to show strength here going into the heart of the season is 'Creed'.ReplyCopy URL

I've been really disappointed by how Creed has been doing so poorly in most awards (thrilled about Jordan's win of the NSOFC yesterday) I would have thought Creed would be a lock for BP by now; is it racism? It's about a contemporary black male, unlike 12 Years a Slave and other films that are set in the past. They didn't like Fruitvale Station either. They seem to prefer their black films set in the distant past.ReplyCopy URL

If you have had a total or partial knee replacement, you are probably already aware that the recovery process could be a long one. There is a lot involved when it comes to knee replacement recovery because you not only have to wait for the healing process to take place but you also need to regain strength and mobility following the surgery. It can be very frustrating to go through the knee replacement recovery process but you have to ensure that you recover fully otherwise you could experience issues again. This includes knee replacement aftercare in addition to the time it takes for the wounds to heal.
What is involved in a knee replacement?
This type of surgery can be quite complex, which is why knee replacement recovery can take some time. The exact procedure will depend upon the type of surgery you are having – for example, partial or total knee replacement or kneecap replacement. This is something that you will discuss with the surgeon prior to surgery and you can also learn more about how to deal with knee recovery pain as well as finding out about possible knee replacement complications.
Why might I need knee replacement surgery?
People need knee replacement surgery for a variety of reasons, as there are many things that can affect the health of your knees including certain medical conditions, age, and injuries. Some of the indications that you might need this type of surgery include:
- If you experience a lot of stiffness in the knee over the long term
- When your knee is inflamed all the time and medication won't help
- In the event that you have severely injured your knee
- If you have pain in your knee when mobile
- If you have some pain when you are sitting or lying down
How long does knee replacement recovery take after the surgery?
The recovery time following this type of procedure can vary based a number of factors. This includes the type of knee surgery you had, how old you are, what your health is like, and your mobility in general. In general, it can take around three months for the swelling and bruising from the procedure to disappear. You still have to think about regaining strength in your leg after it has been out of action for so long, and this involved doing knee replacement exercises via a physiotherapist. There are free private treatments available for this, so if you would like to find out more just give us a call.
What free private treatment can I qualify for regarding knee replacement recovery?
When you are recovering from knee replacement surgery, there may be various free private treatment options available to you. For instance, you can gain access to free bandages and dressings to protect the wound from the surgery. You can also access free physiotherapy to help get you back on your feet more quickly. You can speak to us about these free services simply by getting in touch for more details.
How can I recover more quickly?
Naturally, most people are keen to recover quickly after knee replacement surgery so they can get back to their normal routine. Part of this is making sure that you look after the wound and that you do not try and overdo things when it comes to putting strain on your knee. Another key part is making sure you use a physiotherapist to help you with knee exercises to help build up strength and increase movement. We can help you with this through free private treatment – call and speak to us today.
