"#HongKong right now is the most dangerous place, more dangerous than Beijing -- it's because of the flexible red line. In Beijing, everybody knows what we can talk about and what cannot be mentioned. But in Hong Kong, nobody knows what that dangerous topic really is."

Here's our report.

in what law in which country is this permissible? World, watch this.

Allahuakhbar... stop bombing the innocents! they are unarmed, they are children and women, old people, civilians. stop terrorising them. my heart bleeds. 💔

A Palestinian family in Gaza pray for their safety before being bombed by Israeli fighter jets in Gaza. Palestinians in Gaza are fighting for their lives.

This is state terrorism in front of our eyes!!

長賜輪在蘇伊士運河擱淺後,綜合外電報導的省思:極限邊緣的船舶操縱,科學與安全之間給”人的反應”留下多少”餘裕空間?

航行員都知道:在有限水域中的船舶操縱與大洋中的船舶操縱有極大的差別,也因此而產生一些”異常反應”的專有名詞,譬如:淺水效應,岸吸/岸推,船體下坐(Squat),狗頭嗅地(Dog smelling),單俥右旋船在淺水區倒俥時之船頭可能向左,主要的原因都是來自船舶四周的海水,來不及湧入去填補船艉所造成之空穴.

也因為這個緣故,Suez Canal當局對過河船隻有一些船寬,吃水,速度上的限制.基於經濟上的考慮,可以想像這些限制都是在”水工模型”下最大化的尺度界線.(越大的船過河費越貴),然而這些都是理想環境下的科學論證,實際上船舶操縱者的精神狀態,駕駛台的氣氛環境,外界視線,無線電之干擾,Marlboro菸未如預期,住艙走廊上”波斯市場”的氛圍….都在影響著”駕駛台資源管理(BRM)”,而使得船舶之實際Performance遊走在”紅線”邊緣,更糟的是一但越過紅線(Point of non-return),情況就越來越糟,猶如在山脊上騎腳踏車.

這次的重大意外,在檢討”船舶因素”之外,蘇伊士運河當局也應該重新考慮”紅線邊緣的緩衝區”是否應適度放寬,以因應船舶無止境的大型化,因應極端氣候下的異常天氣,因應新世代船員之特性,另外也可考慮在駕駛台放一箱Marlboro,讓有需要的人看自己包包大小量力自取,畢竟比起全球供應鏈上的損失,這都是微不足道的”潤滑油”.不是嗎?

The Suez Canal Authority occasionally brings out updated tables of width and acceptable draft for ships. Currently the permissible limits for suezmax ships are 20.1 m (66 ft) of draught with the beam no wider than 50 m (164.0 ft), or 12.2 m (40 ft) of draught with maximum allowed beam of 77.5 m (254 ft). Due to their design and size, a large number of ports around the world can accommodate suezmax vessels.
17,65 56,96
, a new set is being built for vessels as large as 366 meters in length, 49 meters in beam and 15.2 meters in draft at tropical frvessel.
That would have surpassed the speed limit of about 7.6 knots (8.7 miles an hour) to 8.6 knots that is listed as the maximum speed vessels are “allowed to transit” through the canal, according to the Suez authority’s rules of navigation handbook posted on its website. Captains interviewed for this story said it can pay to increase the speed in the face of a strong wind to maneuver the ship better.
“Speeding up to a certain point is effective,” said Chris Gillard, who was captain of a 300-meter container ship that crossed the Suez monthly for nearly a decade until 2019. “More than that and it becomes counter effective because the bow will get sucked down deep into the water. Then, adding too much power does nothing but exacerbate the problem.”
“You might find yourself positioning the ship in one direction, and you’re actually moving in another direction,” said Kinsey. “There’s a very fine line between having enough speed to maneuver and not having too much speed that the air and hydrodynamics become unstable. Any deviation can get real bad real quick because it’s so tight.”

The accident will be a missed opportunity if the industry doesn’t adapt, he said. “There will be vessels larger than this one that will be going through the Suez,” he said. “The next incident will be worse.”

• The Ever Given's speed was 13.5 knots before it ran aground, The Japan Times reported.
•
• Bloomberg reported the Suez Canal speed limit was between 7.6 knots and 8.6 knots.
The Ever Given didn't have a tugboat escort through the canal, according to Bloomberg. The two ships immediately ahead of it reportedly had escorts, although such escorts were not required.

It was mentioned in the comments section of the prequel video mentioned [RIDING HIGH in AMSTERDAM | https://youtu.be/yZybrlLd3QM] that we may have smoked the joint in an 'illegal' vicinity of Amsterdam (Smoking weed is permissible only in designated coffee shops). We are at fault for not being aware of the community guidelines. We sincerely apologize to the community for the ignorance of our actions. Hope you can still enjoy the video!

Michael Coogan, God & Sex 最後一章節錄:

================
For readers who are believers, the Bible continues to be considered an authoritative guide. Yet, while upholding it as such, individuals and communities of faith today, as through the ages, have of necessity been selective--not just adopting, but adapting, modifying, and even rejecting some of its teachings.

...

Bible is an anthology of historically conditioned texts, how do these texts apply to later situations?

...

What a foundational text meant when it was written is not the only question that needs to be answered: we also have to determine what such a text means in the present. To do so requires ascertaining the ideals that underlie the text.

...

As an illustration, let us consider a specific issue from the culture wars of another era, the issue of slavery. Every part of the Bible reflects the views of its writers, and for them all, from the early Israelites to the latest authors of the New Testament, slavery was divinely ordained and beyond question. Yet the biblical story and the laws embedded in it also imply an alternate, even subversive view... [The] repeated references to the Exodus from Egypt is the principle of imitation of God: if God had delivered the Israelites from slavery, then perhaps Jews and Christians should do the same for their own slaves. They should treat others as they themselves had been treated, and would wish to be treated... The essence of the scripture, then, is fair and equitable treatment of others; the actual words are not necessarily binding.

Hence, relying on the overarching authority of the Bible, rather than on the actual words of specific biblical writers for whom slavery was not only permissible but even divinely decreed, abolitionists argued that slavery should be ended because it was contrary to the essence of the biblical message. The same analysis can be applied to issues like the status of women and, I would argue, of any individual or group perceived as inferior.

...

Any specific biblical text is an incomplete formulation of the ideal because it is historically conditioned, and so it should not be taken as absolute in any sense. Moreover, no single biblical text adequately expresses the ideal, and in fact some texts clearly counter to it from our perspective.
