🔎 ABOUT THIS PROJECT

===============================

Coral reefs are known as “the rainforests of the sea”. These vibrantly complex ecosystems harbour the highest biodiversity of any ecosystem globally. An estimated 25% of all marine species depend on reefs. They are also crucial for millions of people, providing food, livelihoods, resources and coastal protection.

Major threats, such as over-exploitation and climate change, are jeopardising the future of coral reefs. In the last few decades, sharp declines in reef cover have occurred worldwide. This is our first coral reef project to restore damaged reefs in the northern waters of Nusa Penida, Indonesia.

Our long-term goal is to improve resilience by enhancing connectivity of fragmented reefs whilst protecting and preserving endangered coral species. Led by our local team of expert divers and marine biologists passionate about the preservation of this marine ecosystem, we work with local people to promote positive community involvement in coral reef restoration.

This is gonna be a doozy guys. All from Project Gemini, but pulled from various drafts.

A: And with these results that we’ve calculated, we’re able to connect the final piece in better understanding, diagnosing and healing our patients.”

B; Blip. He tiredly swiped his badge in front of a small, wall-mounted monitor.

C: “Clock out for break.”

D: “Did they not teach you anything about being a ‘good representative of Utristan’ zombie while you were in basic, Private,” he smirked, keeping his voice low.

E: Even after scoring high on the ASAPT exam and being a perfect personality match for his career path, it still took numerous recommendations from teachers and summer volunteer mentors for the school to even consider his application.

F: “From what I’ve seen, I think you’re doing pretty well for yourself.

G: Gemini felt his eyebrow twitch slightly, but he kept his facial expression as neutral as possible, “No need to be.”

H: He turned to him and gave a sympathetic smile, “That’s my cue. Hang in there, Álvarez.”

I: It almost felt lonesome seeing as there really was no need for physical visitors since each room had large screens bolted to the wall opposite of the patients, the surface plastered by faint, glitching images of doctors or presumably loved ones.

J: “Just pay for my dinner.”

K: “Kinda need to get my head in the game, though. I’m just ready to start flying already, you know?”

L:“Listen, I know I’m the worst, but you’re probably just going to be with Bruno for most of the time anyway.”

M: “May I have your attention, please? The MPA-0312 Antiquitrain for the 17:09 CrossCountry service to Dreake will arrive shortly. For the safety of yourself and our other guests, please remain behind the turnstile until the antiquitrian has come to a complete stop.”

N: Naturally, he whipped his head up and around to scan the crowd, but to no avail.

O: “Open your fucking eyes, Audrey,” he suddenly yelled at her.

P: PA: “It’s a wonderful Wednesday evening with a warm temperature of 24 degrees Celsius, perfect for downtown mingling!

Q: Quinn’s eyes widened. They opened their mouth to rebut, but Lucia stopped them with a chuckle.

R: “R-Right,” he quivered.

S: “So, I’m guessing you heard about what happened?”

T: The figure kept a firm press on his chest, which limited his struggles.

U: Unknown, Titania District

V: “Very Important. Understand?”

X: Xenovia, Titania District

Y: “You can because I’m giving it to you, and I’m not really giving you a choice about it,” she smiled and, before he could say anything, took his hand and placed the tablet flat in his palm.

Z: “Zodiacs. That's what they're called.”

probs gonna log out of here bc I dont wanna be back thinking its ok to do drugs to suppress appetite or pick up vaping. Haven't vaped in a month, haven't had meth in over 4 months, haven't b/p I think in around the same length of time. Dont wanna get hooked back into hoarding thinspo or haunting mpa and feeling it change my brain. Dont wanna get back to being obsessed with being emaciated just because I've cut down on drink again. Going to rehab probs in a month or two and dont just want to go back to mia behaviours. If I'm gonna cross-addict into something I wanna get fit I think. I wanna be thin maybe if I'm really this stupid I'll just move more into an ortho social media space. Not that that's really more sustainable but at least its socially acceptable right

[reidio-silence]

A quiet neighborhood up to the 1960s, East Boston too had been roused by a populist movement marshaled to defend against powerful outside forces. The defense of East Boston turf had been going on well before 1974, not against desegregation but against the Massachusetts Port Authority (MPA) and nearby, expanding Logan Airport. The community had been fighting battles against airport noise, air pollution, and truck traffic, and already had lost three parks comprising seventy acres of recreational space as well as over one thousand units of housing. In September 1968 some six hundred heavy trucks a day began pounding through Maverick Street, “an old, densely populated street lined with homes,” to and from the airport. This sparked a spontaneous protest, and grandmothers and housewives with baby carriages barricaded the street. State police cleared the roadblock, but by early October the governor and mayor announced the trucks would use an alternate route.

East Bostonians then joined a new organization—The Greater Boston Coalition (GBC)—to lobby to stop highway expansion. Massport renewed its efforts in East Boston in February 1969, but after an April “surprise attack” by the MPA on one tree-lined street, residents pulled down a construction fence and their state representative, George DiLorenzo, got himself arrested. That night 250 residents met and cheered every mention of civil disobedience. The latter soon took the form of activists using their cars to slow traffic to a crawl on arteries leading to the congested airport. While the GBC eventually won its struggle to arrest highway construction, Eastie’s wars with Logan continued into the 1970s.

The veterans of wars with Massport and highways did not move over wholesale into antibusing. One of them, for example, Monsignor Mimie B. Pitaro, initially led a fight against the patronage-ridden administration of the federal poverty program in East Boston. His devotion to the neighborhood and enthusiasm in the struggle against Massport led local citizens to elect him to the state legislature in 1970, the first Catholic priest ever so honored in the state’s history. But Pitaro refused to vote against the Racial Imbalance Act, which led to his defeat for reelection in 1972.

Busing created a deep split in East Boston. Some of Pitaro’s former allies worked to implement the court orders or distanced themselves from militant antibusers. Some were antibusing and the Massport-highway wars had toughened them: “Anyone who is still living here after the loss of Wood Island Park, noise of Logan Airport, and the smells from the oil tanks and large trucks,” wrote one mother to Judge Garrity, “is never going [to move or to bus]. As a life-long resident you will not tell me what to do with my children.” Already East Bostonians had joined demonstrations against the Racial Imbalance Act and the district had voted heavily for hard-liners on the school committee.

Magnetoactive liquid-solid phase transitional matter

https://www.cell.com/matter/fulltext/S2590-2385(22)00693-2#articleInformation

Magnetically actuated miniature machines can perform multimodal locomotion and programmable deformations. However, they are either solid magnetic elastomers with limited morphological adaptability or liquid material systems with low mechanical strength. 

Here, we report magnetoactive phase transitional matter (MPTM) composed of magnetic neodymium-iron-boron microparticles embedded in liquid metal. MPTMs can reversibly switch between solid and liquid phase by heating with alternating magnetic field or through ambient cooling. 

In this way, they uniquely combine high mechanical strength (strength, 21.2 MPa; stiffness, 1.98 GPa), high load capacity (able to bear 30 kg), and fast locomotion speed (>1.5 m/s) in the solid phase with excellent morphological adaptability (elongation, splitting, and merging) in the liquid phase. We demonstrate the unique capabilities of MPTMs by showing their dynamic shape reconfigurability by realizing smart soldering machines and universal screws for smart assembly and machines for foreign body removal and drug delivery in a model stomach.

Newest U.S. Navy aircraft carrier arrives in Norway, generating discontent from Russia 🇷🇺

Fernando Valduga By Fernando Valduga 05/26/23 - 08:07am in Military

The USS Gerald R. Ford (CVN 78), the newest and most advanced U.S. Navy aircraft carrier, arrived in Oslo, Norway, as part of its planned visit to the port on May 24.

During the visit of the USS Gerald R. Ford, which marked the first visit of a U.S. aircraft carrier to Norway in 65 years, the ship held a reception in Oslo to honor the U.S.-Norway relationship, welcoming local authorities and important leaders.

Prior to arrival, the Gerald R. Ford Strike Group (GRFCSG) integrated Her Majesty's Ship Norwegian (HNoMS) Roald Amundsen (F311) as GRFCSG Surface War Commander, demonstrating strong interoperability between the U.S. Navy and the Royal Norwegian Navy.

“Norway is a strategic partner in ongoing efforts to maintain a safe and stable Arctic and North Atlantic region that benefits global order,” said Rear Admiral Erik J. Eslich, commander of Carrier Strike Group 12.

"We are committed to our NATO ally and promoting our strong relationship built on a basis of shared values, experiences and vision," he added.

However, as press reports indicate, Russian authorities criticized the aircraft carrier's visit during the stopover, referring to it as "illogical and harmful".

“There are no issues in the North that require a military solution, nor issues that require external intervention,” Russian embassy spokesman Timur Chekanov told AFP by email.

“Considering that Oslo admits that Russia does not represent a direct military threat to Norway, such demonstrations of force seem illogical and harmful,” he added.

As the leading Ford-class ship, the CVN 78 represents a step forward in the Navy's global power projection capabilities, as demonstrated during combat system qualification tests.

Featuring 23 new technologies, including the electromagnetic aircraft launch system, stop equipment and weapon lifts, Ford-class aircraft carriers allow higher assorted rates with a 20% reduction in crew size compared to Nimitz-class aircraft carriers.

Since the departure from Norfolk, Virginia, on May 2, Gerald R. Ford has been involved in training, exercises and joint and combined operations aimed at mitigating maritime safety risks in the upper northern region, in response to increased activity in the area.
