The USA Act and the Financial Anti-Terrorism Act are the legislative precursors to the USA PATRIOT Act.

USA Act

The USA Act (Uniting and Strengthening America Act of 2001) is an expansion of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) of 1978.

The primary difference between the USA Act and FISA is the definition of terrorism. In FISA, terrorism is limited to acts that are "backed by a foreign power." The phrase "foreign power" is commonly interpreted to refer to a foreign government. Focus on Al Qaeda after September 11 raised the issue that there are terrorists who are not backed by a foreign government and even those who may act completely alone. In the USA Act, terrorism was redefined to be activity that appears to be intended to (1) intimidate or coerce the government or civil population AND (2) breaks criminal laws AND (3) endangers human life.

Financial Anti-Terrorism Act

The Financial Anti-Terrorism Act of 2001 (H.R. 3004) was a bill calling for the Federal Government to have the increased ability to control and monitor financial criminals and the ability to sentence them.

The Financial Anti-Terrorism Act allows:

  * Criminals to be punished, those who were engaged in illegal money practices
  * Gives procedural guidelines for Federal subpoenas for records of funds in correspondent bank accounts
  * Federal jurisdiction over foreign money launderers and over money laundered through a foreign bank
  * All financial institutions to be forced to form an anti-money laundering program

Legislative history: combining into the USA PATRIOT Act

The USA Act passed the House (H.R. 2975) on October 12, 2001, and by the Senate (S. 1510) on October 11, 2001.

On October 17, 2001 the Financial Anti-Terrorism Act passed the House of Representatives: 412-1. The only Representative to vote "Nay" was Ron Paul.

The USA Act and the Financial Anti-Terrorism Act were combined to become the USA PATRIOT Act on October 26, 2001.

Dumps were planned for two mission's worth of fuel and bombs at Singapore and Darwin, Australia and one mission's supply at Rabaul and Port Moresby, both Australian controlled territories, with a depot at Rockhampton, Australia. The ship, with a capacity less than anticipated, only made initial deliveries to Rabaul and Port Moresby.

By 11 December the Japanese invasion was developing with commercial ships evacuating Manila Bay. By 14 December most of the U.S. Asiatic Fleet had withdrawn and all heavy bombers of the USAAC had withdrawn to Mindanao and on the 17th to Darwin.

On 19 February 1942 the ship departed with a party composed of Philippine officials, including vice president, Sergio Osmeña, to safety. After making contact with a submarine the ship went to Iloilo where the President briefly boarded until daylight when the ship departed for Cebu City to load supplies for Corrigedor. Shortly after departure the ship was attacked by Japanese aircraft and the ship was ordered abandoned by Captain Afable as the damage was severe and a cargo of gasoline was leaking. Survivors saw the ship erupt in flames after bombers returned along with Japanese surface vessels.

Don Esteban, along with some 25 other vessels chartered by Army to form a local Philippine support fleet supporting defense efforts shortly before the war's outbreak and to support forces on Bataan and later Corregidor, did not survive to escape to Australia.

Plot

Sunil Sharma (Kamal Haasan) aka Sunny is a playful young lad who lives with his mother. He is unemployed and uses his leisure time singing in many colleges in Bombay (now Mumbai). His father Rammlal went missing twenty years ago after he fatally injured a man by accident. Rammlal has now changed his identity to 'Manoharlal'. He is a successful millionaire in Shimla and takes care of his friend's daughter Nisha (Reena Roy).

Sunny's friend comes to Bombay to visit him, but is ragged by Nisha's girl gang due to a misunderstanding. To take 'revenge' for his friend's humiliation, Sunny pranks the girls by pretending to be a tour guide and promises to show them around Bombay. Instead, he lands them in a tricky situation and runs away. Nisha and her friends realise that Sunny is not a tour guide and that he has pranked them. In a fit of rage, the girls vandalise Sunny's friend's car.


Sanam Teri Kasam (1982 film)

Sunny gets a job opportunity from Shimla. With his mother's blessings, he leaves to Shimla. On the way, he stops at a hotel where Nisha and her friends are staying. The hotel keeper tricks people by giving the same room to two different people and collects the money from both parties. In this manner, Sunny accidentally enters Nisha's room. She thinks that he is stalking her and screams, thereby alerting everyone. The hotel manager apologizes to them, but Nisha develops a hatred toward Sunny.

After such hilarious encounters, Sunny finally reaches Shimla. Turns out that the job vacancy is at Manoharlal's home! Sunny requests Nisha not to complain about their previous fights, as it would cost him his job. Nisha is amused by his sudden change in behaviour and agrees to keep it a secret. Eventually, Sunny and Nisha fall in love with each other.

A criminal named Wilson gets to know that Manoharlal is alive and has become a millionaire in Shimla, and wants to seize his wealth. He hatches a plan and makes his son Robinson pretend to be Sunil Sharma and brings him to Manoharlal. Thinking that Robinson is his real son, Manoharlal is very happy and wants him to marry Nisha. One day, Robinson sees Sunny and Nisha embracing and immediately reports it to Manoharlal.

Manoharlal thinks that Sunny is pretending to love Nisha just for her wealth. He quickly gets Nisha engaged to Robinson, who is still posing to be Sunil Sharma. Sunny's mother writes him a letter, through which Wilson and Robinson realise that Sunny is the real Sunil Sharma. In the meantime, Robinson's girlfriend Reeta comes and asks him to marry her as her brother is very hostile to their relationship. Robinson uses this opportunity to get rid of Sunny completely.

He tells Sunny that Reeta is claiming to be his girlfriend. Sunny is shocked and denies any relationship with Reeta! Robinson tells him to go to Reeta's home to talk and clear the misunderstanding. Sunny agrees and goes to Reeta's home, only to find her lying dead in her wedding dress. Robinson quickly calls the police and makes it seem like Sunny has killed Reeta!


Sanam Teri Kasam (1982 film)

Nisha hears about this, but still trusts that Sunny would never do such a thing. She deciphers that something strange is going on. But despite her pleas, Manoharlal arranges her wedding with Robinson, still believing that he is his son Sunil. When Sunny's mother comes, Wilson's gang blackmail her and threaten to take Sunny's life if she exposed their evil plan.

Sunny's mother meets Nisha and tells her the truth about the situation, but begs her to do something because it involves the life of her estranged husband Manoharlal and son Sunny. Fearing for Sunny's life, Nisha reluctantly agrees to marry Robinson. During the wedding, Sunny arrives and stops the wedding from happening. Manoharlal thinks he is lying and hits him very badly, but Sunny's mother remains silent because she is threatened by the villains that they will kill Sunny if she tells the truth.

At the right time, the police inspector arrives with Reeta, who is alive and well. Turns out that Reeta didn't die that day, but was unconscious. She testifies against Robinson and his father Wilson and exposes their plan. Finding a way to escape, Wilson holds the gun to Sunny's mother and threatens to shoot her if anyone moves. Using her as a hostage, they escape and demand 2 million as ransom. With the help of a few friends and the police, Sunny and Nisha find their hideout and they nab the crooks.

In the end, the family is united. Manoharlal confesses his crime and surrenders to the police. He names Sunny as the heir to his property.

Sunny and Nisha are finally united.

Superiorly, the fleshy portion of the pyramidalis muscle passes upward, diminishing in size as it ascends, and ends by a pointed extremity which is inserted into the linea alba, midway between the umbilicus and pubis.

Nerve supply

The pyramidalis muscle is innervated by the ventral portion of T12.

Blood supply

The inferior and superior epigastric arteries supply blood to the pyramidalis muscle.

Variation

The pyramidalis muscle is present in 80% of human population.

Occasionally, it is doubled on one side, and the muscles of the two sides are sometimes of unequal size.

Function

The pyramidalis muscle tenses the linea alba when contracting.

Rübke belonged — as to its government — to the Prince-Archbishopric of Bremen, established in 1180.Roman Catholic Diocese of Verden until after 1566 its incumbent bishops lost papal recognition, except of a last Catholic bishop from 1630 to 1631, respectively.Duchy of Bremen, which was first ruled in personal union by the Swedish Crown — interrupted by a Danish occupation (1712–1715) - and from 1715 on by the Hanoverian Crown. The Kingdom of Hanover incorporated the Duchy in a real union and the Ducal territory became part of the new Stade Region, established in 1823.

The town has limited facilities, with only a bank and a car yard being the main commercial entities in the town. Along Buxtehude Straße there is the town's fire brigade, which provides a location for the majority of the town's social gatherings.

To the south west of the town lies Buxtehude and to the south, Neu Wulmstorf. The closest major city is Hamburg, to the north.

The town is not serviced by standard public transport; however, bus stops exist for the local school buses which service the area.

Argentinos found themselves in the same 1st round group as fellow Argentinian team Ferro Carril Oeste, at the end of the group the two teams were tied for first place on nine points, this required a playoff, which Argentinos won 3–1.

Argentinos won the 2nd group stage outright, to claim a place in the final against Colombian side América de Cali (fierce rivals of Yudica's former club, Deportivo Cali).

The final was a two legged affair, but both games finished 1–0 to the home team, requiring a cup final playoff but this game ended 1–1, Argentinos Juniors finally triumphed after a 5–4 victory in a penalty shootout.

Niederfell

Photo of the town in 2005

Niederfell is a small town located in the municipal association of Rhein-Mosel, which is within the rural district of Mayen-Koblenz, in the German state of Rhineland-Palatinate, near the country's western border. It is located across the Mosel River from the small town of Gondorf, about 17 kilometres (11 mi) from the city of Koblenz.

This town has existed for over a thousand years. A document that was prepared under the Archbishop Poppo describes donations to the Abbey of Saint Mary in the year 1030 A.D., and Niederfell is mentioned in that document (the Abbey of St. Mary was located at what is now called the Exzellenzhaus in Trier). That document also refers to an older document of Archbishop Egbertus from the year 980 A.D., and accordingly Niederfell celebrated its 1000th anniversary in 1980.

In the early 1600s, during the Thirty Years War, this town was repeatedly destroyed, and therefore no medieval buildings still exist there. The town's population has been fairly stable since 1950, at about one thousand people.

José Zanier

José Zanier (Udine, Italy, September 18, 1905 – Mar del Plata, Argentina January 30, 1973) was an Italian engineer and pioneer in the construction of thermo-electric power stations supplied by diesel motors. He also worked on projects involving the Italian interconnecting 230 and 150 kV electricity lines, as well as making other contributions to the development of the electro-technical field.

Biography

In 1932 he planned and supervised the construction of the post office and telecommunications building in Vicenza, Italy. Soon thereafter, he focused his attention on the building of the scholastic Noventa Vicentina monument in Vicenza.

In 1936, as director of the technical office of UMET in Rome, part of the Superior Council for Public Works, he developed plans for the Italian 230 and 150 kV interconnection lines with 400 MW of transferable electric power, with their respective transformation and regulation substations.

Just before the outbreak of World War II, he installed the first 20,000 kVA steam-turbo generators, with automatic boilers, in Rome's thermal power station - the first of their kind.

As chief engineer for energy distribution at AGEA, the Italian state electricity and water company, in 1933 he planned the construction and usage of high- and low-tension electricity lines in central and southern Italy, designed to supply electricity to the so-called "Agro Romano".

Immediately after the war he was hired by the Argentine government to construct the modern thermal "Dean Funes" power station in Córdoba, Argentina, which had two 2,500 kW steam-turbo generators.

In 1950, as chief engineer, he planned and built the "9 July" thermal power station in Mar del Plata, the only one of its kind with a power capacity of 20,000 kW. A pipeline connecting to the YPF and subterranean water refrigeration tunnels connected to the sea complete the generator which continues to supply this seaside town today.

Pyramidella alfredensis is a species of sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Pyramidellidae, the pyrams and their allies.

Description

The milk-white shell has an elongate-conic shape. The 1¾ whorls of the protoconch are very small. They are planorboid, having their axis at right angles to that of succeeding turns. The left side of the nucleus projects considerably beyond the outline of the spire of the teleoconch . The ten whorls of the teleoconch are almost flat and are feebly shouldered at the summit. They are marked by exceedingly fine, retractive, incremental lines, and numerous microscopic spiral striations. The suture is moderately constricted. The periphery of the body whorl is well rounded. The base of the shell is well rounded, decidedly umbilicated, and marked like the spire. The aperture is subquadrate. The posterior angle is acute. The outer lip is thin. The inner lip is very oblique, and decidedly reflected. It is provided with a strong fold near its insertion. The parietal wall is glazed with a thin callus.

Distribution

This marine species occurs off Port Alfred, South Africa.

Réunion des Organismes d'Assurance Mutuelle

For other uses, see Roam (disambiguation).

ROAM (Réunion des Organismes d’Assurance Mutuelle) is an association at the service of mutual insurance companies for more than 150 years.

History

Created in 1855 by a group of directors of mutual insurance companies in order to hold exchanges regarding their status as mutual organisations and to defend the provision of insurance services in the mutual form, as an alternative to joint-stock companies.

Today, this professional French association brings together 46 companies all of whom are subject to the regulations of the Insurance Code and to the supervision of the ACAM (Insurance Supervisory Authority in France).

ROAM gathers mutual insurance companies (MIC) : an MIC is insurance company that does not have its capital divided into shares, is collectively managed by it policyholders who are also its members and which acts in their best interests.

ROAM’s actions

ROAM takes a proactive role, at both the national and international level, to defend the model of mutual insurance and, more specifically, the general interests of the small and medium-sized mutual insurance companies which continue to maintain a very close link with their original mutual principles.

At the international level

It is a direct member of Amice (Association of Mutual Insurers and Insurance Cooperatives in Europe) at the European level and its members participate in many of the working groups organised by AMICE (Solvency II, European Mutual, European Affairs, etc.). ROAM has also assumed responsibility for the coordination of the study on comparative law, "MIC: regulatory, financial and fiscal provisions" in five European countries (France, Italy, Spain, Belgium and the Netherlands) and the United States.

As a direct member of ICMIF, ROAM takes every opportunity to represent the interests of its members at the world level and also shares its experiences by creating links with mutuals across the world.

Challenges to be faced

Solvency II


Challenges to be faced

Solvency II

There is a challenge regarding both Pillar I and Pillar II. Significant changes are underway with the introduction of Solvency II. Both for pillar I, quantitative requirements, and pillar II, internal control requirements, a real revolution is taking place at the European level and this will have considerable repercussions on the French market. Certain specialised French mutual insurance companies could find themselves facing an own funds requirement that is often five to ten times higher than the current requirement. The introduction and effective follow-up of a well-structured internal control system will pose problems for all small structures (in terms of cost and internal expertise). ROAM, which has been involved in this process since the project's inception, defends its members position by contributing to the consultation process on an ongoing basis and also by directly lobbying the European authorities.

Governance would also appear to be a sensitive issue for French mutualists, who have been faced with significant successive changes to their regulations (in 2002, 2003 and then again in 2005) and so have had to respond to the continual challenge regarding the recognition of their statute and of their specificities by adapting to these changes.

European Mutual

Since there is no European instrument to enable them to establish groupings at this level, then the French mutuals are at a competitive disadvantage compared to joint stock companies, since they do not have access to the same legal instruments: ROAM continues its efforts to promote the mutual status at the European level and calls for the introduction of a European Mutual status in order to allow mutuals to join forces with one another to create groupings at a cross-border level. In the context of Solvency II, this instrument becomes essential.

In 2009, ROAM's Mutual insurance companies achieved a turnover of 11 billion Euros (direct business in France + reinsurance accepted + foreign activities), meaning that they therefore hold approximately 6% of the insurance market in France, but more than 39% of the builders liability market and more than 58% of medical malpractice liability market.

Polite architecture

Polite architecture, or "the Polite" in architectural theory comprises buildings designed to include non-local styles for aesthetically pleasing decorative effect by professional architects. The term groups most named current architectural styles and can be used to describe many non-vernacular architectural styles. Irreconcilable architectural practices include Functionalism and Brutalism.

Description

Polite architecture is characterised by stylistic and romantic features which have been intentionally incorporated by an architect for affectation. A building of polite design is conceived to make a stylistic statement which goes beyond its functional requirements. Its design is deferential to national or international architectural fashions, styles, and conventions; paying little or no regard to the conventional building practices and materials particular to a locality.

'The polite' is also a concept of architectural theory used to differentiate from 'the vernacular'.

Architectural theory

The term is used by architectural historians to contrast with vernacular architecture, which refers to buildings which are constructed from materials and building conventions particular to their locality.

The architectural historian Ronald Brunskill has offered the following definition:

The ultimate in polite architecture will have been designed by a professional architect or one who has acted as such through some other title, such as surveyor or master mason; it will have been designed to follow a national or even an international fashion, style, or set of conventions, towards an aesthetically satisfying result; and aesthetic considerations will have dominated the designer's thought rather than functional demands.

As a theoretical term, the differences between "the polite" and "the vernacular" can be a matter of degree and subjective analysis. Between the extremes of the wholly vernacular and the completely polite, there are buildings which illustrate vernacular and polite content.

The growth of polite architecture


Polite architecture

The growth of polite architecture

Although originally only accessible to wealthy individuals and institutions, since the developed world's industrialisation buildings characterised by elements of 'the polite' have become prevalent throughout the building stock of developed countries. The rise in the number of buildings reflecting polite architectural features has been influenced by the expansion of the profession of architecture, the availability of more artistically amenable and often more resilient man-made building materials for most structural and decorative purposes, such as cement render, decorative bricks, plastics, glass and metals, and the availability of transport networks capable of delivering materials produced outside of a building's immediate locality. The growth of these elements in the late 18th and 19th centuries, led to an expansion in the proportion of buildings which are of polite design, which may be as a result of aesthetic architects being demanded by choice or by economic convenience. Its growth has continued in the 20th and 21st centuries however has been nuanced by local policy and aesthetic demands to incorporate facets of architectural revivalism in many styles of architecture.

Pyramidella bairdi

Pyramidella bairdi is a species of very small sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Pyramidellidae, the pyrams and their allies.

This species was named for William Baird (1803-1872), a British zoologist.

Description

The broadly conic shell has a milk-white color, with a narrow pale yellow band at the periphery. The shell grows to a length of 5.1 mm. It is deeply, broadly umbilicated. There are least 2½ whorls in the protoconch. They form a depressed helicoid spire, whose axis is at right angles to that of the succeeding turns, in the first of which it is about one-half immersed. The six whorls of the teleoconch are well rounded, faintly roundly shouldered at the summit. The sutures are well impressed. The periphery and the base of the body whorl are somewhat inflated, and well rounded. The entire surface of the spire and the base are marked by exceedingly fine lines of growth, and microscopic closely spaced spiral striations. The aperture is rather large. The posterior angle is acute. The outer lip is thick within, where it is reinforced by six short spiral lirations, three of which fall anterior and three posterior to the periphery. The columella is straight and slender. It is provided with three folds, the posterior of one of which is strongly lamellar and at some little distance anterior to the insertion; the other two are less strongly developed and much more oblique.

Distribution

This species occurs in the Gulf of California, Mexico.

Réunion rail

The Réunion rail (Dryolimnas augusti), also known as Dubois' wood-rail, is an extinct rail species which was endemic to the Mascarene island of Réunion. The scientific name commemorates French poet Auguste de Villèle (1858-1943) whose interest in the history of Réunion and hospitality made it possible for numerous naturalists to discover and explore the caves of Réunion.

The subfossil remains of the Réunion rail were unearthed in 1996 in the Caverne de la Tortue on Réunion and scientifically described in 1999. The material includes two complete tarso-metatarsi, five vertebrae, one sacrum, one coracoid, two humeri, one ulna, three femora, ten pedal phalanxes and one fragment of the left mandibula.

The appearance of the bones identifies the Réunion rail as a close relative of the white-throated rail and the Aldabra rail. The large and stout tarsometatarsus shows that it might have been the largest known taxon within the genus Dryolimnas.

Historically there is one travel report which might refer to this species. In 1674 Sieur Dubois mentioned a rail in his report “Les voyages faits par le sievr D.B. aux isles Dauphine ou Madagascar, & Bourbon, ou Mascarenne, és années 1669, 70, 71, & 72: dans laquelle il est curieusement traité du cap Vert de la ville de Surate des isles de Sainte Helene, ou de l'Ascension: ensemble les moeurs, religions, forces, gouvernemens & coûtumes des habitans desdites isles, avec l'histoire naturelle du païs. Paris : Chez Claude Barbin“ which he named «Râle des Bois» (translated as wood-rail). This species should be not confused with the Réunion swamphen which was referred to as «Oiseau Bleu» in the same report. The Réunion swamphen was described as being as large as the Réunion ibis (previously known as Réunion solitaire), while the Réunion rail might have reached approximately the size of the common moorhen. The Réunion rail was probably flightless because the proportions of the wing bones in comparison to those of the leg bones are similar to those of the Aldabra rail, which is likewise flightless.


Réunion rail

As Dubois' account is the only historical reference about the Réunion rail, it might be possible that it became extinct in the late 17th century.

Livar Nysted

Livar Nysted (born 27 September 1970)ocean rower and an artist, a painter. He grew up in the small village of Hvannasund in the Faroe Islands. Nysted has achieved five world records in ocean rowing. In 2010 he – together with three other rowers – successfully crossed the North Atlantic Ocean in a rowing boat, breaking a 114-year-old record. In January 2013 he went on another journey, this time the plan was to cross the South Atlantic Ocean with a boat called Avalon. The crew was eight men, they started on 18 January from Puerto de Mogán, Gran Canaria, and their plan was to row to Port Saint Charles, Barbados. They made it all the way to Barbados on 22 February 2013 after rowing for 32 days, 12 hours and 41 minutes. Later the same year Nysted went on another expedition together with two other men. Their journey started in Australia on 9 June 2013. They crossed the Indian Ocean by rowing. They arrived at Mauritius on 5 August 2013 after rowing for 57 days, 15 hours and 49 minutes, which was a new world record. Livar sat three world records after completing this journey: he and the two others were the first crew of three to cross the Indian Ocean, they were also the fastest rowing crew to row this distance, and Livar sat a new world record for having crossed two oceans in a rowing boat within the same year.

Livar Nysted's rowing career

Growing up next to the North Atlantic Ocean in the small fishing village of Hvannasund on the island of Viðoy, which is one of the Northern Islands in the Faroe Islands, the ocean was a natural part of daily life. The national sport of the Faroe Islands is Kappróður, which means boat race in wooden Faroese boats. There are different types of boats and Nysted has tried all of them. He has won several Faroese Championships in these boat races, which are held during the summertime from late May to late July, the final race is the one at the national holiday at Ólavsøka in Tórshavn on 28 July.

Faroese Champion in Ocean Rowing in Fjords and Sounds (Kappróður)

Kappróður at Jóansøka 2010, 10-mannafør. The yellow boat is Eysturoyingur, in which Livar Nysted won the Faroese Championship in 2007. He was not one of the rowers in this race, at this time he was crossing the North Atlantic.

Livar Nysted has won the Faroese Championship in outdoor rowing three times: in 2001, 2004 and 2007.

  * 2001 Faroese Champion with the boat Nevið Reyða, 8-mannafar, they got 40 points, they won 5 of 6 competitions that year
  * 2004 Faroese Champion with the boat Sundabáturin, the men's 6-mannafar, Norðdepils-Hvannasunds Róðrarfelag (Rowing Club from Norðdepil and Hvannasund)
  * 2007 Faroese Champion with the boat Eysturoyingur, 10-mannafar (only men are rowing in this boat size), Kappróðrarfelagið NSÍ (Rowing Club from Runavík)

His first attempts in long distance ocean rowing in 2003 and 2005

In 2003 Livar Nysted and nine other Faroese men made an attempt to row from the Faroe Islands to the Shetland Islands in a Faroese rowing boat, just like the Faroese ocean rower Ove Joensen did all by himself in 1986. The boat was called Norðoyingur, which means a person who comes from the Northern Islands (Norðoyggjar) in the Faroes. They got bad weather and had to give up after 24 hours. Two years later in 2005 he tried again this time with another crew and another boat, which was called Havrenningur. They almost made it, they saw the coast of the Shetland Islands, but they were more or less ordered to give up, because of bad weather, and so they did. Their trip ended after 6 days, and they were only 18 miles from the shore. A boat from the Shetland Coast Guard dragged them to land.

La Mondiale in 2009


Livar Nysted

La Mondiale in 2009

In 2009 Livar Nysted was one of the crew members of La Mondiale, which made an attempt to cross the South Atlantic Ocean, it was a speed record attempt. The boat was cut short by the irreparable damage to the rudder after a collision with an unknown submerged object. The 14 crew were evacuated safely onto a passing ship 'Island Ranger' but the boat was lost presumed sunk some 1000 miles from the Canary Islands.

Crossing the North Atlantic in 2010 - Two World Records were broken

Livar Nysted along with captain Leven Brown and two other crew members of the rowing boat Artemis Investments, Don Lennox and Ray Carroll holds two Guinness World Records, both were sat on their adventurous trip from New York City to the Scilly Isles in the UK in 2010. First they sat the world record for longest distance rowed in 24h in an ocean rowing boat at 118milesFrank Samuelsen and George Harbo which had stood at 55 days 7 hours for some 114 years. Their boat 'Artemis Investments' left New York City on 17 June 2010 and arrived in St Mary's on 31 July 2010 in a time of 43 days 21 hours 26 mins and 48 seconds. Which remains the record to date for the North Atlantic.

Crossing the South Atlantic with Avalon in 2013

Eight men left Puerto de Mogán, Gran Canaria on 17 January 2013 in order to cross the Atlantic Ocean in a rowing boat. Another boat, Titan, left two days before them. The crew of Avalon aimed to reach Port Saint Charles in Barbados in less than 30 days in order to set a new world record. Captain on this trip was Leven Brown, the same man who was captain on Artemis in 2010, when four rowers broke a 114-year-old record. Leven had once before sat a world record on this distance, it was in 2008 with La Mondiale. In 2011 another boat, Sara G., took La Mondiale's record.Leven Brown, Livar Nysted, Tim Spiteri, Calum McNicol, Benno Rawlinson, Peter Fleck, James Cowan, and Jan Øner.

In the summer of 2013 Nysted went on another expedition together with two other men: Maxime Chaya from Lebanon and the British Stuart Kershaw. Their journey started in Perth, Australia on 9 June 2013. They crossed the Indian Ocean by rowing. They arrived at Mauritius on 5 August 2013 after rowing for 57 days, 15 hours and 49 minutes, which was new world record.
