Shipwreck Story Contest: UNY with the American Folk Art Museum

Posted on January 2, 2010 by Pierette Simpson


On the floors of New York City’s waterways, no fewer than one hundred and seventy shipwrecks languish. Although their exact locations must remain secret to thwart the efforts of amateur looters, we are asking you to dive in and mine the wreckage.

Draw your inspiration from our gallery of shipwreck images and tell a story—fiction, creative nonfiction or poetry—in 3000 words or less, that brings these ghost ships back to life.

As with our regular submissions, we are not asking for explanations, but rather the stories that these shipwrecks evoke. Be as creative as possible, but to qualify for the contest, your story must reference a shipwreck specifically in the NYC waterways

Peter Greenberg is an authority on cruising. Tonight on CNBC he narrated “Cruise Inc., Big Money on the High Seas”. The focus was on the Norwegian Cruise Lines (NCL) owned by the parent company Star Line.

 Here are some interesting safety facts brought to light, along with my comments:

  • NCL has 11,000 cameras on their ships, sharing every public space. Recently, it caught footage of a woman who fell overboard into the Gulf of Mexico. Since she was alone in her cabin, the footage showed there was no foul play. Great to hear!
  • Cruise lines are not requested to report all crimes. Personally I think this is appalling!
  • Lifeboats are lowered weekly. Fantastic preventative measure.
  • Fire drills are held regularly with the staff and are taken very seriously; it’s the number one threat of a large vessel; the Norwegian purl, weighs 93,000 times and holds 2200 passengers.
  • Another big threat is the norovirus. When one is reported on board, the ship is sterilized three times a week. This is really reassuring!

Mr. Greenberg ended the segment by highlighting a great benefit to the budget traveler: due to the economic crisis cruise lines are slashing their prices. For more authoritative information on cruising, visit Peter Greenberg’s site: http://www.petergreenberg.com/

Somali Piracy and The Chandlers

As reported in The Times.com, a British couple taken hostage on their yacht a couple of months ago are praying for the British government to have them released by Christmas time.

The situation appears dismal;  the Chandlers do not have wealthy insurance companies to pay millions in ransom.  It also appears that the British government is not willing to compromise with pirates.

As cold-hearted as it might seem, perhaps the only solution is to make it illegal for insurance companies to spend clients’ premiums on huge ransoms to thugs.

It’s a bold act on the part of the British government. I just pray that the Chandlers are not sacrificed in the process.

The Task Force has achieved remarkable results so far and I am confident that with their motivation and dedication we can further enhance our effectiveness, thus granting continuity to EU efforts in establishing freedom and security at sea in this region of the world”.

As a proud Italian and a proponent of safety at sea, I wish the Admiral much good fortune in bringing in restoring safety on our seas.

The guidelines recommend:
Masters should prepare anti-piracy training practices and procedures that ensure that the ship’s crew have a good working knowledge and understanding of the basic security measures and requirements for preventing or delaying unauthorized access to the ship whilst at sea, at anchor or alongside a port berth.
Masters should prepare an emergency communication plan, to include all essential emergency contact numbers and pre-prepared messages.  Such communication plans should be readily at hand or permanently displayed near the communications console on the ships bridge for instant reference in any piracy or robbery at sea related incident.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It would behoove other governments to come up with guidelines and training for their captains.  These are simple, economical, logical, and sensible recommendations.  I am anxious to see more of the like  by every nation who participates in maritime global trade. Afterall, piracy is a nasty plight affecting our global economy.

"Changing Seas" on PBS

Posted on December 2, 2009 by Pierette Simpson


Last night on PBS I saw the promotion for a new upcoming television series. It’s called “Changing Seas”.  I Googled it and this is what I found:

WPBT2 to launch Changing Seas, a new Science Series about the Oceans
Premiering January 27 at 7:30 p.m. on 2HD

Miami, Florida, January 5, 2009: WPBT2 announces the premiere of a new twelve-part documentary series called Changing Seas. Narrated by Peter Thomas, and produced by Emmy Award-winning Producer Alexa Elliott, this series takes viewers on an exciting adventure to the heart of our liquid planet, following explorers and scientists as they uncover new information that could lead to scientific breakthroughs. Changing Seas offers viewers an unprecedented look at how oceanographers and other experts study earth’s last frontier, and it sheds light on how human activities are threatening ocean resources.

In my opinion, there can’t be enough information about our seas. This series is going to be a drop in a cistern which must continually accumulate information about our liquid world

• • •I am grateful for the catastrophe that taught me resilience, thereby bringing my life full circle: I am embracing heartily my Italian roots and reconnecting to my American family, creating new lifelines in the process.  Being the author of one’s catastrophic experience can be a painful process, but the results are revealing and enlightening I realize that retelling the Andrea Doria story ran parallel to my inner struggle: when I felt weak, I buried it; as I grew stronger, I faced it, thus becoming its heroine.  Do I still feel pain for my grandparents’ ultimate sacrifice of leaving their homeland, then forgoing me as a “daughter”?  Certainly, but I surrender to its reality with more grace when my mother’s praise reminds me of the blessings: “Your grandparents would be so proud that your book vindicates your fellow Italians for the Andrea Doria tragedy.”  Moreover, I’ve released the pain held within the series of abandonments, embracing new relationships with excitement.

           

Overall, I feel better prepared for treading on rough waters, grateful for having taken many lifeboats to transcendence.  I’m confident that with future challenges, I will steadily climb another rope like the one that dangled along the side of the Ile de France, accepting another good fight in the miracle of life.  Knowing that the Andrea Doria was my training ground for courage, I will gratefully say, “Thank God that traveling on the ill-fated liner steered me toward a life journey that I claim as my legend!”

Where the Wild Things Are

Posted on November 23, 2009 by Pierette Simpson

I’m not going to write about anything serious today—not pirating, shipwrecks, oil spills, or anything that can be demoralizing. Instead, I’m gone awry about thousands of deep-sea creatures that were recently discovered by scientists: creatures with transparent tentacled transparent sea cucumbers, “primitive jumbos” that flap ear like fins, and tubeworms that feed on oil deposits.

In a recent article, the Associated Press reported that a recent report released yesterday recorded 17, 650 species living below 650 feet, where there is no sunlight. This indicates that Marine scientists have found 5600 new species on top of the 230,000 known

A sponsor of the report by the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation explained, “the deep sea was considered a desert until not so long ago; it’s quite amazing to have documented close to 20,000 forms of life in a zone that was thought to be barren… the deep sea is the least explored environment  on earth.”

The AP article also indicated that more than 2000 scientists from 80 countries are working together to catalog the ocean species. I found this fact to be uplifting; how great that there is world cooperation on this research! It’s not one country competing to come up with the most numerous species count over another. If only we could work together as one of the species on this earth to solve global problems: pirating, environmental disasters, shipwrecks, and much more: preventing wars, terrorism, and nuclear proliferation. Wouldn’t it be great?

This discovery of the wild things in the depths of our oceans, along with knowing about scientific collaboration on behalf of oceans gives me hope for the future. It makes up for the sadness of losing hundreds of species every 20 minutes.
