The prompt is grounding. My son and I found this handpainted Ganesha status buried on the beach. Knowing it 'came from the sand and to us represents infinite possibility' is very grounding. This morning I set up Ganesha (for protection and to remove barriers) with a feather (also from the beach and a reminder to me of allowing my heart whispers to soar and divine connection and affirmation) with candlelight. All of this with an intention to 'open to gratitude and celebrate each moment of the day' beyond my 'norm'.
This is how I ground - with practices of centering into love and gratitude, setting an intention and opening my heart in a safe space *then* connecting and creating.
The Disaster
On the evening of 25th October 1960 a number of barges were making their way up river from Avonmouth to Sharpness. Amongst them were two vessels operated by John Harker Ltd. of Knottingley, Yorkshire. The WASTDALE H had been built locally at Sharpness Shipyard in 1951. She was a tanker barge and was carrying a load of petroleum. The ARKENDALE H had been built by Richards Ironworks of Lowestoft in 1937 as a dumb (unpowered) tanker barge. She had been converted to a motor barge in 1948 and was later lengthened. Her cargo was Britoleum black oil, a heavy oil which required her to be fitted with heating coils in her tanks to keep the oil liquid.
The barges hit thick fog near Berkeley Power Station and the strong incoming tide was running at 5 knots making it difficult to manoeuvre the vessels for their approach to the lock at Sharpness. Both barges were swept past the lock entrance and the found themselves by the old, disused dock entrance further upstream. The two barges came abreast and the skippers found it impossible to separate them. Whilst they struggled to break them apart they drifted yet further upstream until the port bow of the WASTDALE H hit pier 17 of the bridge. The bridge shook with the impact and the WASTDALE H turned onto her port side and began to sink. As pier 17 gave way under the pressure the two spans it supported fell onto the barges causing the WASTDALE H’s petroleum cargo to ignite and explode. The ARKENDALE H’s cargo of black oil was also ruptured and with the help of the petroleum it too ignited leaving the entire expanse of the river blazing. The two barges drifted on up river before grounding on the Ridge Sandbank. Skipper George Thompson of the ARKENDALE H managed to make it ashore. His engineer Jack Cooper also survived but not before he received a severe back injury sustained by an encounter with the still-rotating propeller of the sinking ARKENDALE H. Skipper James Dew of the WASTDALE H was the only other survivor. The other five crew members were missing.
The next morning the smouldering wrecks of the two barges were left high and dry on the sand with the WASTDALE H standing on her port side. On the following tide she settled back to en even keel. Attempts were made to pump out and search both vessels for the missing crew members but their inaccessible position made the job difficult. All five bodies were later found at various locations along the Severn. On 30th October 1960 the Army blew holes in the bow and stern of both barges to prevent them refloating. They remain there to this day, submerged at high tide and exposed at low tide.
On the night of the disaster the Fairfields workers engaged on the strengthening of the bridge decided to take an early meal break in order to listen to the Henry Cooper v Karl Muller boxing match on the wireless at Severn Bridge Station. Had they not done so the death toll would have been considerably worse as the span they were working on was one of the two that fell.
Within a month of the disaster the Western Region of British Railways had prepared an outline plan to repair the bridge. Pier 16 would be repaired and a new concrete pier would be constructed to replace pier 17. A single, welded mild steel span would then be placed across the top, supported in the middle by the new pier. The projected cost for this was £85,000.
It was found that pier 16 was significantly damaged and was leaning towards the Sharpness bank. It was therefore decided to erect a timber trestle beneath span 15-16 and the contract to do this was awarded to Peter Lind & Co. Ltd.
The bridge suffered further mishap on 17th February 1961 when the tanker barge BP EXPLORER capsized and struck pier 20 causing a further £12,740 worth of damage.
Peter Lind & Co. Ltd. hired the twin floating crane TWEEDLEDUM & TWEEDLEDEE to assist with the erection of the trestle. On the 14th April 1961 the TWEEDLEDUM & TWEEDLEDEE broke away from its moorings on a flood tide and drifted into the bridge damaging the dolphins on pier 20. The crane jib also struck the underside of the bridge. This time the damage was estimated at £6,000."

BECOME A METEOROLOGIST
If your love for weather knows no bounds, you might want to become a meteorologist—but it’s no cakewalk.
The world’s atmosphere is a dynamic, complex machine. To fully understand and predict the weather, you’ll need a thorough grounding in math and physics.
Majoring in meteorology at a university requires a full load of rigorous calculus and advanced physics courses—so many of these courses, in fact, that many students pursuing a life of forecasting wind up double-majoring or taking up minors in the two subjects.
If you’re a hardworking student who’s up for the challenge, it’s well worth the effort.
For those of us who are passionate about the weather but can’t do the math to save our lives, most meteorology programs offer a minor that provides a solid education into meteorology without any of the in-depth science that requires high-level math and physics.
It’s a great option if you’re looking to learn about the weather while pursuing other fields of study.
PREDICT THE FUTURE
All of us have joked about meteorologists flipping a coin to arrive at tomorrow’s weather, but the science of meteorology has advanced to the point where today, our forecasts are extremely accurate.
In fact, we can now predict major weather events days before they happen, when such precision was almost unthinkable just a few decades ago.
THE BASIC TOOLBOX Meteorologists use a wide array of tools to produce their forecasts.
The first step in producing a forecast is to take a look at what’s going on in the atmosphere right now, starting with the upper levels (usually around 30,000 feet) and ending with the weather at the surface.
To begin a forecast, first look at the jet stream or the fast-flowing river of air in the upper atmosphere. The jet stream is the driving factor for most major weather events.
Meteorologists then look at different features in the mid-levels of the atmosphere before arriving at the surface, studying data collected by radar sites (to see precipitation) and the thousands of weather stations scattered around the world.
THE CRYSTAL BALL The next step in the forecast process is to use weather models as guidance to help predict where different weather features will form over the next 10 days or so.
These complicated computer algorithms aren’t the answer—they can often tell an incomplete story—but when good information from weather models is combined with a meteorologist’s knowledge and their experience, the result is an excellent forecast.
Does that mean nobody ever gets a little overexcited and predicts a Snowpocalypse! that fizzles? Of course not. But it happens a lot less often than you might think.
MEET THE WEATHER
The weather is strange in that it is seen as both personal and impersonal. Each weather event can affect our lives in the most profound ways, yet these deeply personal impacts are not at all unique.
The weather plays a formative role in the lives of every person who currently lives, has ever lived, or ever will live, and it will keep doing so until we cease to exist or pack up and move to another planet.
Understanding our powerful and fragile atmosphere is important not only because it affects our lives, but also because it’s just darn cool. So bear with me while I get really nerdy for a bit.
LEARN THE LANGUAGE It seems elementary, but in order to fully understand the weather, we need to understand the terms used to talk about different weather events.
Weather happens at three scales—synoptic, mesoscale, and microscale.
Synoptic-scale meteorology deals with large systems such as hurricanes, nor’easters, and fronts—cold, warm, stationary, and so on—that can have an effect on nations or even entire continents.
Mesoscale meteorology deals with smaller weather events such as squall lines, clusters of thunderstorms, lake-effect snow, and sea breezes.
Microscale meteorology involves weather that occurs on a local basis, such as winds and clouds interacting with individual mountains, cold air draining down into a dip in the terrain, and even dust devils that spin up over a hot parking lot.
KNOW YOUR TERMS One of the most widely employed terms in weather forecasting is “precipitation.” Precipitation involves any liquid or ice that falls from the sky: rain, snow, sleet, freezing rain, hail, and graupel.
We will get into all of those precipitation processes in due time. Along those lines, we will talk about “severe weather” quite frequently, especially when it comes to springtime.
Events such as blizzards and flash floods are certainly good examples of severe weather, but we will use the term to refer to severe thunderstorms or those thunderstorms that produce damaging winds, large hail, or tornadoes.
GET A GOOD MODEL
A weather model is a complex computer algorithm that scientists use to help predict the weather.
While they’re not the sole tools meteorologists use to create forecasts, models are an integral part of the process.
Without weather models, our ability to predict the weather would revert back to the methods used in the mid-twentieth century—making it hard to predict the weather tomorrow, let alone five days in advance.
These advanced models need to know what the weather is doing right now in order to predict what it will do in the future.
The computers need to be fed current weather conditions gathered by surface weather stations, weather balloons (as well as some high-flying aircraft) and satellites, along with weather radar.
These models are then able to plug all of those current observations into the various algorithms, and then, using climatology (past weather) for guidance, they can help forecasters issue reliable predictions.
There are dozens of weather models available to meteorologists on the Internet.
Some of them are provided for free, such as the ones run by the United States government, while others are stuck behind a hefty paywall, such as the model run by the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts, often called the ECMWF or “Euro” for short.
Each model has its strengths and weaknesses. The United States’ Global Forecast System (GFS) weather model is run on a global scale; it’s great at handling large-scale features that cover entire countries, but it doesn’t do a very good job with small-scale features that only span a couple of counties.

The 50 years since the grounding of the tanker Torrey Canyon in 1967 have seen dramatic and sustained reduction in major oil spills from ships, thanks to cooperation between Governments and industry.
The story of how that incident served as a catalyst for positive change is told in a new exhibition which was launched on Monday (16 January) at the headquarters of the International Maritime Organization (IMO), the United Nations agency with responsibility for the safety and security of international shipping and the prevention of pollution from ships.
The Coast Guard is investigating the cause of a fishing vessel grounding off the Honolulu Airport, July 4, 2018. Coast Guard crews and salvors from Cates Marine responded to the grounding, the vessel was successfully refloated, and the Coast Guard is investigating the cause of the grounding. The case has also been referred to the State of Hawaii Department of Health - Hazard Evaluation and Emergency Response Office and the Department of Land and Natural Resources for pollution and environmental assessment in the vicinity of the grounding.

Boeing 720B Cockpit Simulator
The first jet powered airliner, the deHavilland Comet, flew for the first time in 1949 and entered service in 1952. A series of accidents pointed out serious problems in the aircraft's design, and the grounding of the Comet for the next four years opened the door for Boeing and Douglas Aircraft to take the lead in jet airliner design. Boeing's entry into the jet age, the 707, quickly came to dominate the market, outstripping both the Douglas DC-8 and the redesigned Comet. Based on Boeing's design for an aerial refueling tanker for the U.S. Air Force, the 707 took advantage of Boeing's experience with jet bomber designs to incorporate a swept wing and engines in separate pods under the wings. The first production 707 flew in 1957, with the first commercial flight by Pan American Airways in October 1958. Between then and 1978 a total of 1,010 aircraft were built by Boeing for the world's airlines. In addition to the standard 707s, Boeing built 152 of a slightly shorter version of the plane called the 720. These planes were designed to fly medium range flights from smaller airports, a niche in the market that would eventually be filled by the Boeing 727.
Training of airline pilots is accomplished to a great extent in detailed cockpit simulators that exactly duplicate the aircraft they will one day be flying. In full motion simulators, like this one, hydraulic or electric jacks move the simulator realistically in response to the pilot's control inputs and simulated external forces. Each simulator not only represents a specific type of aircraft but replicates the flying characteristics of one particular example of that type. This simulator was programmed to replicate a Boeing 720 with the registration N93143 which was once owned by Western Airlines. The use of simulators makes practicing both normal and emergency procedures less expensive and much less dangerous. Today the vast majority of airline pilot training is done in full motion simulators rather than in real aircraft.

On the second day after the grounding a crew works to try to recover the Jamie K. but by nightfall they had had no success.
On the evening of Monday, July 20th, 2015, this 65 foot shrimp boat out of Charleston in Coos County, Oregon, hit some rocks while maneuvering through a hazardous area called the "Little Hole" to reach a good fishing area. A U.S. Coast Guard rescue swimmer was able to get all four crew members safely to shore during the night one at a time. Recovering the boat is proving to be a challenging task.
