Originally a Courageous Class Battle Cruiser, Completed conversion to an aircraft carrier in 1930. Sunk by Scharnhorst and Gneisenau in 1940.
The German codes had been broken and Bletchley Park was aware of the German threat, but it seems at the time the RN was sceptical of the civilians at Bletchley Park.
Built 1916 Harland & Wolff Belfast (as a Battle Cruiser)
27,859t displ (as an Aircraft Carrier)
Sunk 1940

This is a modest hommage to the courageous people of Fukushima prefecture. They survived a triple disaster in 2011 and are now, nine years later, still fighting with the consequences. I wish them well in their strugle for their beautiful province and thank them for their kindness during this trip.
Fukushima is the third largest prefecture in Japan (14,000 km²), and one of its least densely populated. The prefecture is divided into three main regions: Aizu in the west, Naka dori in the centre and Hama dori in the east. Aizu is mountainous with snowy winters, while the climate in Hama dori is moderated by the Pacific Ocean.
The Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster (福島第一原子力発電所事故 Fukushima Dai-ichi (About this soundpronunciation) genshiryoku hatsudensho jiko) was a nuclear accident at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant in Ōkuma, Fukushima Prefecture. The disaster was the most severe nuclear accident since the 26 April 1986 Chernobyl disaster and the only other disaster to be given the Level 7 event classification of the International Nuclear Event Scale.
The accident was started by the Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami on 11 March 2011.] On detecting the earthquake, the active reactors automatically shut down their fission reactions. Because of the reactor trips and other grid problems, the electricity supply failed, and the reactors' emergency diesel generators automatically started. Critically, they were powering the pumps that circulated coolant through the reactors' cores to remove decay heat, which continues after fission has ceased. The earthquake generated a 14-meter-high tsunami that swept over the plant's seawall and flooded the plant's lower grounds around the Units 1–4 reactor buildings with sea water, filling the basements and knocking out the emergency generators. The resultant loss-of-coolant accidents led to three nuclear meltdowns, three hydrogen explosions, and the release of radioactive contamination in Units 1, 2 and 3 between 12 and 15 March. The spent fuel pool of previously shut-down Reactor 4 increased in temperature on 15 March due to decay heat from newly added spent fuel rods, but did not boil down sufficiently to expose the fuel.
In the days after the accident, radiation released to the atmosphere forced the government to declare an ever larger evacuation zone around the plant, culminating in an evacuation zone with a 20-kilometer radius. All told, some 154,000 residents evacuated from the communities surrounding the plant due to the rising off-site levels of ambient ionizing radiation caused by airborne radioactive contamination from the damaged reactors.
Large amounts of water contaminated with radioactive isotopes were released into the Pacific Ocean during and after the disaster. Michio Aoyama, a professor of radioisotope geoscience at the Institute of Environmental Radioactivity, has estimated that 18,000 terabecquerel (TBq) of radioactive caesium 137 were released into the Pacific during the accident, and in 2013, 30 gigabecquerel (GBq) of caesium 137 were still flowing into the ocean every day. The plant's operator has since built new walls along the coast and also created a 1.5-kilometer-long "ice wall" of frozen earth to stop the flow of contaminated water.
While there has been ongoing controversy over the health effects of the disaster, a 2014 report by the United Nations Scientific Committee on the Effects of Atomic Radiation (UNSCEAR) and World Health Organization projected no increase in miscarriages, stillbirths or physical and mental disorders in babies born after the accident. An ongoing intensive cleanup program to both decontaminate affected areas and decommission the plant will take 30 to 40 years, plant management estimate.
On 5 July 2012, the National Diet of Japan Fukushima Nuclear Accident Independent Investigation Commission (NAIIC) found that the causes of the accident had been foreseeable, and that the plant operator, Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO), had failed to meet basic safety requirements such as risk assessment, preparing for containing collateral damage, and developing evacuation plans. At a meeting in Vienna three months after the disaster, the International Atomic Energy Agency faulted lax oversight by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry, saying the ministry faced an inherent conflict of interest as the government agency in charge of both regulating and promoting the nuclear power industry. On 12 October 2012, TEPCO admitted for the first time that it had failed to take necessary measures for fear of inviting lawsuits or protests against its nuclear plants.

Courageous and athletic, do not feel pity for this orphaned wizard. He can more than handle his own, but please do not mention the scar.

Today we have gone to the prison of Lledoners to give our support to 7 brave and 2 courageous who are unfairly closed to defend our right to vote and to express ourselves. Also for all those who have been forced out of the country to ensure a fair trial. Also for the hundreds of people persecuted for Spanish injustice.
But rage, fear, disenchantment, tiredness, sadness and frustration are over. It's enough to lick our wounds. We convert this judgment against democracy in a state in Spain that violates the rights of all.
We will speak with the words of the prisoners and the truth and dignity will flood everything.
Avui hem anat a la presó de Lledoners per donar el nostre suport a 7 valents i 2 valentes que estan injustament tancats per defensar el nostre dret a votar i a manifestar-nos. També per tots aquells que s'han vist forçat a marxar del país per assegurar-se un judici just i pels centenars de persones perseguides per la injustícia espanyola.
Però la ràbia, la por, el desencís, el cansament, la tristesa i la frustració s'han acabat. Ja n'hi ha prou de llepar-nos les ferides. Convertim aquest judici contra la democràcia en un àtac a aquest estat que vulnera els drets de tots.
Farem d'altaveu de les paraules dels presos i la veritat i la dignitat ho inundaran tot.
My Daddy is the quintessential man's man.
This series is to document for me a 5-day visit I had with my Daddy last week while he was in the hospital. This was taken prior to any frank discussions about the extent of his infection (septic), and the possibility of amputation. Here Daddy was very hopeful that the surgurical removal of the necrotic tissue the day before would save his foot, legs, and life. So were we.
