MS. TEEFEY & SELENA GOMEZ-RARE-SUPERSTAR. TCI GALLERY SPRING 2024 THEMES. CRYPTOCURRENCY & REYGITONIUM-G TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN: I ABSOLUTELY SEE NOTHING WRONG WITH CRYPTOCURRENCY: REYGITONIUM-G I CAN UNDERSTAND WHY THE INFANT DEMOCRATIC-CAPITALISTIC MINDS OF TODAY BLAME USA GOVERNMENT. THEN IS ANY GOVERNMENT TO BE BLAMED FOR HOMELESS PROBLEMS PLAGUING THE WORLD.? NO. GOD KNOWS HEADACHES USA GOVERNMENT HAVE WITH THE FOREIGN AFFAIRS. THE NEW WORLD PRACTICALLY SHOCK TO WITNESS. PEOPLE ONLY WORKING TOGETHER FOR A COMMON GOAL. "IN THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS." DOESN'T THAT ALSO INCLUDE THE HOMELESS. THE HOMELESS ARE OUT THERE. ARE YOU.? HOMELESS.. OPPORTUNITY MISUNDERSTOOD. The modern economic system is a market economy, which is a capitalist economy where people, not the government--NOT THE GOVERNMENT--own most businesses. In a capitalist economy, prices allocate capital and labor between competing uses, and capital assets can be privately owned and controlled. https://lnkd.in/eB98Jnv9 EXAMPLE, IF YOU NEED TO RAISE MONEY FOR ANY REASON OR MORE SO LETS SAY THE "HOMELESS" PROBLEM WHICH IS BELIEVED TO BE TIME & MONEY CONSUMING BUT IN ONE DIRECTION TOWARD THE HOMELESS. HOWEVER CRYPTOCURRENCY CAN POSSIBLE ALLOWS AN EXPENDITURE OF CURRENCY TO BENEFIT ALL WHO USES THE CRYPTO & REGARDLESS OF HOW IT'S CONSUMED. THEREFORE IF A CRYPTO HOMELESS CURRENCY REYGITONIUM-G EXISTED IT'S MORE HIGHLY LIKELY THAT THE HOMELESS PROBLEM CAN BE VANQUISHED BECAUSE CURRENCY-FINANCES IT'S ALWAYS AVAILABLE TO BE TAPPED INTO FOR HOMELESS RESOLUTIONS. REYGITONIUM-G: EACH COUNTRY GOVERNMENT INITIAL $1-DOLLAR INVESTMENT PORTFOLIO OF 8-BILLION EARTH CITIZENS. THEREAFTER GLOBALLY ANYBODY CAN INVEST IN THE CRYPTOCURRENCY REYGITONIUM-G. OR CONTINUE HIDING THE HOMELESS WHEN A POLITICAL LEADER VISITS AMERICA. CLOSING COMMENT: THE DAMNEDEST CRAZIEST FUNNIEST EMBARRASSING ABOUT THE HOMELESS CHAOS IS ANY EXCUSE AS TO WHY HOMELESS EXIST. HENCEFORTH CONSIDER USA TRILLIONS IN DEBT & 6,120 HOSPITALS SCATTERED AROUND THE USA & MANY COUNTRIES ASKING FOR FOREIGN AID IN THE TRILLIONS & YOU TALKING EXCUSES.

What’s missing from this edition of “positive ocean news” you might ask? Given the media headlines perhaps you were expecting Jersey’s decision on Marine Protected Areas as part of the Marine Spacial Plan to be considered good news? Given we are a signatory to the #30by30 pledge (protect 30% of our territorial waters by 2030) you might have expected this once in a generation plan to target that. Or even close to it. However our newish environment minister has scaled back the MPAs from the original plan from 27% to 23%. Including removing the proposed protection for over 50% of our Maerl beds. To be clear, an MPA isn’t a “no take zone”. You can fish and boat in MPAs, you just can’t dredge fish or tow mobile gear. Because this method is hugely damaging to marine life, the seabed and has issues with by-catch and the loss of fishing gear into the sea causing hazardous pollution. So the passing of the Marine Spacial Plan was not the good news it could have been. When this subject came up with a friend in the industry, these are some of the reasons given as to why the protection shouldn’t be provided: ⏱️ those fishermen have always fished there/dredged there 🪦 it’s all dead already 🚜 it’s like ploughing a field, it’s necessary for growth and getting oxygen into the seabed 💰 it’s only 6 boats from Jersey, you can’t take away their livelihood 🇫🇷 the French boats do it It’s really hard for me to gently educate and challenge this kind of thinking, where we think we have a god-given right to damage the planet, take what we want and deprive future generations of natural capital. It’s hard to present the science on blue and green carbon, the damage of existing practices on sea and land and the long term economic unsustainability of this activity. Yet not 5 minutes later we were talking about the catastrophic decline in abundance of fish and seafood, the species that have vanished from our waters and the invasive species getting a foothold in an unbalanced system. So it’s not great news for our territorial waters this month and I just hope the MSP paves the way for further protections and that those it has guaranteed are enacted very quickly to protect what we can.

Another interesting read given all the interest around hydrogen albeit from a different human interest angle - deep cave diving using a concoction that includes hydrogen. We have much to thank for the small group of folks, i.e the scientists, enthusiasts, professional hobbyists etc who are constantly pushing the boundaries of what is possible across the various fields of human endeavour from the deepest oceans and highest mountains, to outer space. #diving #oceangraphy #scientificachievements #pushingthelimits #discoveries

The Daniel J. Morrell was over 600 feet long and a giant steel Great Lakes Freighter. On November 29th 1966 it broke in half in a violent storm with icy cold waves over 25 feet tall. Only one man out of the crew of 29 survived the shipwreck after 37 horrific hours on a raft surrounded by 3 fellow crewmen that had already died. The stern motored another 5 miles closer to shore before it finally sank beneath the surface into 215 feet of water. No one from the stern survived and this eerie video shows areas inside the pristine engine room where the men would have worked. Haunting reminders that a job on the Great Lakes was a dangerous one. I've been diving the shipwreck since 2016 and have close to two dozen dives on the stern section documenting different areas including the engine room. Inside you see catwalks working your way down to the engine, ladders, a telegraph, General Alarm that would have run as the ship was sinking. A workbench with tools and above it a light bulb still intact alog with glass jars full of nuts and bolts. I have seen this area change over the years. It could be rust and that objects are just falling or it could be divers. If you do penetrate this wreck please be careful and mindful of your fin kicks and bubbles knowing things down. Once it's broken it can't be replaced. Anytime a shipwreck penetration is done in 37f/3c water temps at a depth of 208ft / 62m we put a lot of planning into it. We are using closed circuit rebreathers for safety and to not stir up sediment. We have safety gas, safety divers and overhead training. I collaborated with my buddy Jeff Lindsay on this dive. We were both shooting video to put tis sequence together. https://lnkd.in/eypvxZyv #GreatLakes #shipwreck #underwaterExploration #maritimeHistory #shipwreckDiving #rebreatherDiving #underwaterPhotography #deepSeaDiving #exploringTheUnknown #underwaterengineroom #wreckpenetration #wreckdiving #shipwreckphotography

Professionals in the diving community continually seek advanced techniques to safely extend the limits of deep underwater exploration. The mouthfill equalization technique represents a significant advancement beyond traditional methods, facilitating safer and deeper dives. Key Advantages: 1. Advanced equalization: offers a refined approach for managing air pressure during deep dives, utilizing a two-phase process of load and management. 2. Versatility: while particularly beneficial for extreme depths, it’s also applicable to less demanding dives, improving overall safety and comfort. Process overview: 1. Load phase: involves precise air movement to the upper airways, preparing for effective equalization. 2. Management phase: focuses on controlled pressure management to maintain equilibrium and protect the middle ear. Adopting the mouthfill technique can significantly enhance the depth and safety of your dives, contributing to a more controlled and enjoyable diving experience. #ubaproject #eqtool #mouthfill #freediving

Is it tacky to quote myself in my own post? Well, in either case, "...reflecting on my diving experiences is the next best thing to actually being in the water." I promise I'm not thinking about scuba diving *too* much while on the clock, but I can't lie and say occasional daydreams of the next dive don't float to the surface. Needless to say, this blog post was a fun and easy one to write. Check it out to see how W5 conducts Day-in-the-Life studies, plus some cool diving photos from fellow W5er Emma Stieffel Eyman and me. 🌊

"Diving Science Revisited" by Dr. Michael Strauss describes the positive as well as undesirable ways divers interact with the aquatic environment. It is especially recommended for the following: 👉 Diving instructors and supervisors. 🎯Those involved with clinical applications of hyperbaric oxygen therapy 🌊 Those engaged in diving-associated marine biology and underwater missions. 🌎All divers, whether novice or advanced, who want to advance their knowledge about the science and medical challenges of diving.
