![]() See also: COVID-19 pandemic on cruise ships The ship's late arrival cut the following 14-day cruise short by one day. While Norwegian Cruise Line released a formal apology, the incident had sparked outrage that some guests were traumatized to the point of refusing to cruise again, while some either threatened a class action lawsuit or demanded full compensation. Some guests had suffered seasickness at that point. Footage of the ordeal showed the sides of the ship being hit by waves as high as 30 feet (9.1 m), and the ship was at an inclination with the shape of the waves. Some rooms were so badly flooded that their occupants resorted to sleeping in the public spaces. On 4 January 2018, the Breakaway bound for New York passed through the January 2018 North American blizzard, causing major flooding in passenger staterooms. On 20 July 2016, one crewmember was killed and three were injured by an accident during a rescue boat drill. On 28 July 2014, a 4-year-old boy fell off his bunk and had to be evacuated by a Marine helicopter to a hospital after sustaining a head injury. On 3 February 2014, a 4-year-old fell into the pool and drowned, while a 6-year-old was revived and evacuated by Marine helicopter to a hospital. On 17 September 2013, a woman fell two decks from her exterior balcony prior to arriving in Bermuda. Onboard features include a restaurant, Ocean Blue, by Geoffrey Zakarian, and a comedy club, in which a Second City company performs. The ship has a total of 1,604 staterooms and 350 suites. At launch, Norwegian Breakaway was the world's ninth largest cruise ship by gross tonnage. She is 146,600 GT in size, and has capacity for 3,963 passengers, double occupancy. Beginning in late 2018, Breakaway will leave New York, traveling to New Orleans, followed by Miami in early 2019, before sailing out of the Orlando-area port, Port Canaveral, in November 2019. She is the largest cruise ship homeported year-round from New York City. Norwegian Breakaway was home ported at the New York Passenger Ship Terminal in Manhattan, making seven-night cruises to Bermuda (May through September) and seven-night cruises to the Bahamas and Florida (October thru April). On she headed to Bermuda to start her seven-day cruises. Following several inaugural events, she started her transatlantic cruise from Southampton to New York City, where the naming ceremony took place. Following the handover, Norwegian Breakaway left the port of Bremerhaven, heading for Rotterdam. She was delivered to NCL on 25 April 2013. The ship's godmothers are the New York dancing troupe The Rockettes. Ĭonstruction of Norwegian Breakaway began on 21 September 2011, when the first piece of steel was cut at the Meyer Werft shipyard in Papenburg, Germany. ![]() The two ships were named through a public contest Kimberly Powell submitted the name Norwegian Breakaway, which was announced on 14 September 2011. The ship, along with her sister Norwegian Getaway, were the first two ships in "Project Breakaway" ordered by Norwegian Cruise Line.

![]() To produce large amounts of power, reactors contain hundreds to thousands of critical masses, and the chain reaction easily becomes self-sustaining. This inherent safety feature can be overwhelmed in extreme circumstances.Ĭontrol rods containing nuclides that very strongly absorb neutrons are used to adjust neutron flux. In case the reactor overheats and boils the water away, the chain reaction terminates, because water is needed to slow down the neutrons. Control rods adjust neutron flux so that it is self-sustaining. Figure 22.28 shows a schematic of a reactor design called the pressurized water reactor.įigure 22.28 A pressurized water reactor is cleverly designed to control the fission of large amounts of 235U, while using the heat produced in the fission reaction to create steam for generating electrical energy. Water is very effective at this, since neutrons collide with protons in water molecules and lose energy. To make a self-sustained nuclear fission reactor with 235U, it is necessary to slow down the neutrons. Perhaps you can now see why so many people consider atomic energy to be an exciting energy source! And that is just if two neutrons create fission reactions each round. Of course, each time fission occurs, more energy will be emitted, further increasing the power of the atomic reaction. One fission will produce two atoms, the next round of fission will create four atoms, the third round eight atoms, and so on. ![]() If each atomic split results in two nuclei producing a new fission, the number of nuclear reactions will increase exponentially. This depends on several factors, including how many neutrons are produced in an average fission and how easy it is to make a particular type of nuclide fission.Ī chain reaction can have runaway results. The self-sustained fission of nuclei is commonly referred to as a chain reaction, as shown in Figure 22.27.įigure 22.27 A chain reaction can produce self-sustained fission if each fission produces enough neutrons to induce at least one more fission. Both factors affect critical mass, which is smallest for 239Pu. In particular, 235U and 239Pu are easier to fission than the much more abundant 238U. Additionally, some nuclides are easier to make fission than others. Some nuclides, such as 239Pu, produce more neutrons per fission than others, such as 235U. The minimum amount necessary for self-sustained fission of a given nuclide is called its critical mass. We can enhance the number of fissions produced by neutrons by having a large amount of fissionable material as well as a neutron reflector. Some neutrons escape the fissionable material, while others interact with a nucleus without making it split. However, not every neutron produced by fission induces further fission. It is analogous to a dense shield or neutron reflector directing neutrons back to interact with more other nuclei and perpetuate the fission chain reaction. Explain that if the plastic box were not there, the uncontrolled chain reaction would likely not occur. Good videos of a ping-pong ball dropped into a room full of ping-pong balls and mousetraps elucidate this idea very well and can be easily found online. At this point, it is a good idea to show a quick video of a chain reaction model. The catalyst typically occurs in the form of a free neutron, projected directly at the nucleus of a high-mass atom. As a result, a physical catalyst is necessary to produce useful energy through nuclear fission. And although it is true that huge amounts of energy can be released, considerable effort is needed to do so in practice.Īn unstable atom will naturally decay, but it may take millions of years to do so. Given that it requires great energy separate two nucleons, it may come as a surprise to learn that splitting a nucleus can release vast potential energy. ![]() In simplest terms, nuclear fission is the splitting of an atomic bond. Through two distinct methods, humankind has discovered multiple ways of manipulating the atom to release its internal energy. Knowing that energy can be emitted in various forms of nuclear change, is it possible to create a nuclear reaction through our own intervention? The answer to this question is yes. This section delves into a less-natural process. Without human intervention, some nuclei will change composition in order to achieve a stable equilibrium. The previous section dealt with naturally occurring nuclear decay. ![]() ![]() The element is a container that is used to group different The srcset attribute allows specifying different versions of the same image, We recommend that you always specify a fallback URL via the However, some browsers and crawlers do not Img element to specify responsive images.

True leaders ask “How can I serve?” Because they are focused on service, it’s not so much about “What’s in it for me.” Leaders add value to others by valuing others and relating to what others value. ![]() The best place to serve is where we can add the most value to others. Leadership is an act of service to others and the true leader focuses on creating value for others. The law of addition focuses on advancing others, not ourselves. To quote Maxwell “If the leader can’t navigate the people through rough waters, he is liable to sink the ship.” This holds true for individual leaders and for leadership teams. Anyone can steer a ship but it takes a leader to chart the course, carefully, seeing where they want to go and charting the most effective course to get there. If I need to improve, then I’ll engage in a process and stick with it.” Maxwell asks the questions “What is one little thing you can do more of that would have a positive impact on your life or your business? And is there something you can stop doing that will have the same kind of impact?” Both are important as we strive to get a little better every day. To quote Maxwell “If I need to be inspired to take steps forward, then I’ll attend an event. The learning process is ongoing and a result of self-discipline and perseverance. Leaders are learners and their capacity to develop and improve their skills distinguishes leaders from their followers. Influence is what helps fulfill the goals and dreams of the leader and without influence, a leader lacks the ammunition to reach the destination. Simply stated is says that the true measure of leadership is influence- nothing more, nothing less. Maxwell refers to this law many times throughout the book. Influence is the power or capacity to produce a desired result. If our leadership ability stagnates, so does our ability to make a bigger impact. As we grow our abilities as a leader, we automatically grow our ability to impact the world. It states that there is a lid on or limit to our potential that is determined by our leadership ability. However, in his book “The 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership” published in 2007, John breaks down leadership even further.Įach of the 21 laws has its own chapter in which John shares personal stories and biographical sketches of some of history’s greatest leaders. Like many other authorities on Leadership, John would agree that Leadership is about Setting Direction, Aligning People, Motivating and Inspiring. John has trained millions of people and written over 50 books. John Maxwell is one of the world’s foremost authorities on Leadership. ![]() "The Story of the Three Bears" is really one of the most popular fairy tales in the English language. The story has seen various interpretations and has been adapted to board game format, film, opera, and other media. What was originally a fearsome oral tale became a cozy family story with only a hint of menace. Southey's elderly antagonist ( an old hairy woman, described at various points in the story as impudent, bad, foul-mouthed, ugly, dirty and a vagrant) was transformed in fact into a pretty little girl called Goldilocks, and his three male bears (once known as “Little, Small, Wee Bear, Middle-sized Bear, and Great, Huge Bear”) became Father, Mother, and Baby Bear. Since then, a many publications of the story, told by different authors, followed and it is important to point out that the tale experienced two significant changes during its early publication history. Both versions tell of three bears and an old woman who trespasses upon their property. (The same year, writer George Nicol published a version in rhyme based upon Southey's prose tale, with Southey approving it). Robert Southey was the first author to record it in narrative form and so it was first published in a volume of his writings (‘The Doctor’) in 1837. This famous children's story was already known at Southey’s time but it was present only in the oral tradition. But the three Bears never saw anything more of her. Out the little old woman jumped, and whether she broke her neck in the fall or ran into the wood and was lost there, or found her way out of the wood and was taken up by the constable and sent to the House of Correction for a vagrant as she was, I cannot tell. Now the window was open, because the Bears, like good, tidy bears as they were, always opened their bedchamber window when they got up in the morning. Up she started, and when she saw the three bears on one side of the bed she tumbled herself out at the other and ran to the window. But when she heard the little, small, wee voice of the Little, Small, Wee Bear, it was so sharp and so shrill that it awakened her at once. And she had heard the middle voice of the Middle Bear, but it was only as if she had heard some one speaking in a dream. The little old woman had heard in her sleep the great, rough, gruff voice of the Great, Huge Bear, but she was so fast asleep that it was no more to her than the moaning of wind or the rumbling of thunder. But she was an impudent, bad old woman, and set about helping herself. If she had been a good little old woman she would have waited till the bears came home, and then, perhaps, they would have asked her to breakfast, for they were good hears-a little rough or so, as the manner of bear's is, but for all that very good-natured and hospitable. So the little old woman opened the door and went in and well pleased she was when she saw the porridge on the table. The door was not fastened, because the bears were good bears, who did nobody any harm, and never suspected that anybody would harm them. She could not have been a good, honest, old woman for, first, she looked in at the window, and then she peeped in at the keyhole, and, seeing nobody in the house, she lifted the latch. And while they were walking a little old woman came to the house. One day, after they had made the porridge for their breakfast and poured it into their porridge pots, they walked out into the wood while the porridge was cooling, that they might not burn their mouths by beginning too soon to eat it. ![]() The deliverables and frequency section is more objective and lays out specific tangibles that will be completed throughout the duration of the contract and how they will be delivered. You then could describe it as “management of client’s human resources functions, which include (but are not limited to) drafting employee agreements, handling conflict resolutions, and documenting formal employee complaints.” Be as specific as possible in this section and include any activities that will be involved because the details will be the basis for budget and resource allocation.
