Going out in a journey with no idea of what might await further is an act of extreme bravery and perhaps, also, foolishness, that, nonetheless, is evidence of the level of the problem’s gravity.

The crew consisted of the injured captain, a cook, Billie the oiler and Crane the correspondent. Sadly not all the crewmembers survive these excruciating hours in the sea with no food, warmth, and only a jug of water. It was shocking to hear that Billie does not make it ashore, especially after working so hard to get them there. Billie would take turns with the correspondent rowing the boat with very little sleep “They sat together in the same seat, and each rowed an oar. Then the oiler

were loaded with the proper equipment. The boats did not have the water tanks full and they

Beowulf set his ego aside and hurdled into the face of danger in order to defeat a greater evil and liberate the people of Heorot from the demonic grasp of Grendel. The crew aboard the Challenger brought America together and helped us insure the safety of future astronauts. Tom pushed his body to the edge to live the life he dreamed of. Risks are imperative in life. Even beginning life, they are our instinct. We learn to crawl despite the bruises on our knees. We learn to walk no matter how many falls we endure. As we become further aware of the world around us, somewhere along the way, we experience failure; at that point, many people attempt to eradicate most risks from their life. But where would we be without our sense of exploration, our willingness to try new things? In order to push one’s boundaries, move forward as a society, and give purpose to life people must be willing to take risks.

I just got done with reading "A Canadian Threat to Alaskan Fishing" by Brendan Jones I hate what is happening to our rivers and water ways that these dangerous mining practices that leach chemicals and heavy metals into the water. This has been going on for years. But the worst part is that there is an agency called the International Joint Commission that there whole duty is to protect American and Canadian water ways from becoming pollution from each other country. We have a clear and present danger that is affecting the Stikine, Unuk and Jaku rivers and people that can stop it haven't. This is just another example in how big corporations can buy influence to persuade governments and when there are regulations put in place they don't realy

But I did noticed that snice we did not go too far the GPS did not register that we were moving and when we went inside the Academic building the GPS device completely fail and I assume that it was because we were standing underneath a big metal object that was deflecting the GPS signal. Also when it came to direction it was hard to interpret what was north on the GPS screen, so it did not help when we try to find where north

When you're in the north woods of Maine, you can use this information to orient yourself. Even without a compass or GPS you can find your way. How?

Bockscar had problems with fuel; there was 7,250 gallons of fuel aboard and only 600 gallons in reserve tank

Continued use of “That Newfangled Technology”: After the incident of being reported the wrong bearings, Captain Hunter still continued to use the navigation by radio bearing. It was assumed as an honest mistake. It wasn’t until after the crash that Captain Hunter realized that the radioman was giving him the correct bearings from the beginning. This could have been prevented if the system would have been checked after the first wrong bearing, to see what the reasoning behind such an error was; instead of continuing on the journey.

Today the accuracy of GPS navigation is not questioned, however, there are still some Applications that use GPS to plot routes between two points and can be very inaccurate because it is hard to determine the difference between locations [5]. For example if you are on a trail that is not registered a GPS could give you an incorrect route. Also a GPS receiver will give inaccurate readings in a forest or a city with tall buildings because satellites have to send clear signals to GPS

There were many ideas expressed, on what qualities that applied to a boat, were good or bad, and because the motors that had to be used were fairly weak, even more issues were said throughout the classroom. These issues included the boat weighing too much, the inappropriate use of a gear on
