P21-class patrol vessel

The P21 class is a class of inshore patrol vessels of the Armed Forces of Malta's Maritime Squadron. They are alternatively known as the Austal class after their builder.

Development and design

The four patrol boats moored at Hay Wharf in 2014.

The Maltese ordered four boats in 2009 from Australian shipyard Austal.Swift-class patrol boats P23 and P24 which had been in commission since 1971 and the Bremse-class patrol boat P32 which had been in commission since 1992. The new vessels were built to Maltese specifications and were partly financed by the EU.

The first two vessels were launched in October 2009.

The vessels are armed with machine guns and they mount a firefighting water cannon on the aft fly bridge. They are mainly used for search and rescue purposes, border patrol and to rescue illegal immigrants.

Service history

P21

P21 takes part in various rescue operations, for example in July 2010 she took part in the search for a woman who had been reported missing. The woman was found hiding in a cave after she swam there she was surrounded by jellyfish.

The patrol boat also regularly takes part in rescuing illegal immigrants, such as the rescue of 11 migrants in September 2012 along with the patrol boats P22 and P32.

P21 also responded to the attempted hijacking of a tanker by migrants on 28 March 2019.

On 25 May 2019, P21 assisted the P52 with the rescue of 216 migrants after distress calls where received from 2 rubber dinghies during the night. Both dinghies were inside Maltese territorial water.

On 5 June 2019, P21 made 2 rescue operations in what turned out to be a busy day for the navy. P21 responded to a group of migrants that required rescuing. The vessel firstly disembarked 63 of the migrants and then went back to rescue a further 61 migrants that couldn’t fit on the vessel. In total the vessel rescued 124 migrants. On the day P52 and P61 were also involved in further rescue operations that resulted in the navy rescuing 370 migrants in total.

On 25 July 2019 P21 was again on hand to rescue a group of 76 migrants that were found in distress in the Maltese SAR zone.


P21-class patrol vessel

On 12 August 2019 P21 evacuated 8 migrants from the NGO vessel Open Arms. The vessel carried 160 migrants which remained in limbo until a safe port was provided. The group of 8 migrants were extracted due to their ailing health which were brought to Malta aboard the P21.

P22

P22 near Fort St. Angelo in the Grand Harbour.

In September 2012 P22 intercepted a boat full of illegal immigrants about 25 nautical miles south of Malta and rescued 11 of them. Another 30 people on board the boat refused assistance and continued their journey north.

On 29 May 2019 P22 rescued a group of 75 immigrants clinging to a tuna fish pen. They’ve been at sea for the previous 3 days before being saved by the armed forces of Malta. The immigrants entered port early the following morning.

P23

P23 takes part in various rescue operations. Her captain and crew were praised twice in August 2011, the first time for helping return a drifting cabin cruiser back to the port,

On 23 June 2019, P23 rescued 24 migrants that were close to shore, near Birzebbuga. The migrants were found on a dinghy and the majority of 16 were all aged 3–16years old.

On 26 July 2019, P23 came to the aid of another group of migrants, this time numbering a total of 67 men. The rescue happened while the vessel was on a regular patrol. This extraction happened just a day after P21 rescued another 76 migrants in similar conditions.

On 4 August 2019, P23 entered port carrying another group of 40 migrants that were transferred from the NGO ship Alan Kurdi. The NGO vessel was due to enter the port of Lampedusa however the Italian authorities refused to provide a safe port. The Maltese government then allowed the 40 migrants to be brought to Malta, only after finalizing a deal with the EU which will take all the 40 migrants. None will remain in Malta.P23, see the article on the C23 tragedy.

P24


P21-class patrol vessel

P24

In July 2012, the Austal-class P24 towed its predecessor, the decommissioned Swift-class P24 (formerly known as C24), from the AFM base at Haywharf in Floriana to the Malta Freeport in a handover ceremony. From here the decommissioned Swift boat was taken to San Diego where it was restored and placed in the Maritime Museum of San Diego.

In November 2012 P24 collided with a small boat in Marsamxett Harbour. The small boat sank but the man on board jumped and was picked up unhurt by the crew of the patrol boat. The boat was then lifted with slight damage and an inquiry was held.

On 27 June 2019 P24 rescued a group of 66 migrants and brought them safely to Hay Wharf naval base, were they handed over to the police. Favourable weather is a big factor in the huge number of migrants arriving in Malta.

On 9 July 2019, P24 rescued a group of 44 migrants that were found in distress during the night in the Maltese SAR zone. Amongst the saved there were 4 women and 3 children. The migrants were firstly saved by the Alan Kurdi and then transferred to the patrol boat.

On 26 August 2019, P24 ferried into harbour a group of 73 migrants that were found in Malta's SAR zone aboard a small dinghy. Later on that day the AFM rescued another group of 89 migrants in a similar situation. That brings the total rescued for the day to 162 migrants.

Marcus Robinson (prisoner)

Marcus Reymond Robinson (April 2, 1973 – June 9, 2022) was an African-American convicted and sentenced to death in Cumberland County Superior Court for the June 1991 death of Erik Tornblom. Robinson also was sentenced to 40 years in prison for robbery with a dangerous weapon, 10 years for larceny and five years for possessing a weapon of mass destruction. In April 2012, he successfully appealed against the death sentence under North Carolina's 2009 Racial Justice Act which allowed for a prisoner under sentence of death to appeal for the sentence to be commuted to life imprisonment if racism is proven to be a factor in the original trial. North Carolina Superior Court judge Gregory Weeks found that the Act was applicable in Robinson's case after his lawyers cited a study from Michigan State University indicating that qualified black jurors were systemically excluded from jury service, both generally in North Carolina and at Robinson's trial. Consequently, Weeks ordered his removal from death row. Robinson was the first death row inmate to use the legislation.

The Racial Justice Act was repealed in 2013, and two years later the North Carolina Supreme Court vacated the North Carolina v. Robinson ruling on procedural grounds, because the prosecutors had not had enough time to prepare for the hearing.

Robinson died of an apparent suicide after he was found unresponsive in his cell at 12:14pm on June 9, 2022. Prison first responders performed live-saving measures until paramedics arrived, and pronounced him dead at 12:35pm.

Torneo Gran Alternativa (2014)

The Torneo Gran Alternativa (2014) was a professional wrestling tournament event produced by Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL) that took place from January 31 until February 14, 2014, over the course of two CMLL Super Viernes shows, with the finals on the Arena Mexico 57th Anniversary Show. The Torneo Gran Alternativa (Spanish for "the Great Alternative tournament) concept sees a Novato or rookie team up with an experienced wrestler for a tag team tournament. The rookie winner has often been elevated up the ranks of CMLL as a result of winning the tournament, but there is no specific "prize" for winning the tournament beyond a symbolic trophy. The tournament was won by rookie Cavernario and veteran Mr. Niebla, the success of the tournament led to Cavernario being added to Mr. Niebla's group La Peste Negra

Tournament background

The tournament featured 15 professional wrestling matches with different wrestlers teaming up, some of which may be involved in pre-existing scripted feuds or storylines while others are simply paired up for the tournament. Wrestlers portray either villains (referred to as Rudos in Mexico) or fan favorites (Técnicos in Mexico) as they compete in wrestling matches with pre-determined outcomes. The tournament format follows CMLL's traditional tournament formats, with two qualifying blocks of eight teams that compete on the first and second week of the tournament and a final match between the two block winners. The qualifying blocks were one-fall matches while the tournament finals will be a best two-out-of-three falls tag team match. Each qualifying block started with all 8 Novatos competing in a "seeding" battle royal to determine the brackets for the block.Cavernario and Mr. Niebla defeated Soberano Jr. and Volador Jr. in the finals on February 14.Novato participants seven of them had participated in the Gran Alternativa tournament before, primarily the 2013 tournament; Soberano Jr., Oro Jr., Guerrero Negro Jr., Herodes Jr., Espanto Jr., Akuma and Hombre Bala Jr.

Not Forgotten Association

The Not Forgotten Association (known as 'The Not Forgotten') is a British Armed Forces registered charity

History

Formation

At the outbreak of the First World War, United States soprano Marta Cunningham was residing in London. She undertook charity and canteen work in the East End, which she continued after the cessation of hostilities. In 1919 while visiting her local hospital, Cunningham asked the matron if she still had any wounded servicemen under treatment. Martha was horrified to find out that there were in fact 600 injured patients in the hospital, with thousands of wounded men lying in hospitals, bored, lonely and in pain.

Cunningham established The Not Forgotten Association on 12 August 1920, with the object of providing entertainment and recreation for the war wounded, to alleviate some of the struggles that they were facing and give them something to look forward to.

Early Events

Thanks to the generosity of other charities and the public, as well as the firm backing of the Royal Family, hospital visits and tea concerts were followed by outings, drives and gifts such as fruit, chocolate and cigarettes. Within the first year, the charity supported approximately 10,000 veterans.

Cunningham devoted the rest of her life to the charity, for which in 1929 she was appointed a CBE. Cunningham herself died on 25 June 1937,Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea Cemetery, Hanwell.

The Not Forgotten sadly, lost many of its early records following an air raid in 1941.

WWII Onwards

Whilst the aims of The Not Forgotten have remained much the same throughout its history, it has adapted to meet the changing needs of the serving wounded and veterans with disabilities. The Second World War brought a huge increase in the number of disabled service men and women and a renewed need for the charity’s work. This new generation of the injured and sick were there to be helped alongside the ‘Boys of the Old Brigade’ who required care as never before.

In the 1960s the number of veterans eligible for their assistance dwindled. However, with the deployment of Armed Forces in Northern Ireland, the Falklands, the Balkans, Iraq, Afghanistan and elsewhere, the need for their work grows no less.

Purpose


Not Forgotten Association

Purpose

In 1926, the Association officially defined its task as being ‘to provide comfort, cheer and entertainment for the wounded ex-servicemen still in hospital as a result of the Great War'.

Since then, they have broadened their scope, and now support any veteran or serving member of The Armed Forces, who is wounded, injured, or sick. They have also focused their intentions on preventing loneliness and isolation; a problem which is particularly common among veterans.

Patronage

Cunningham persuaded Princess Mary to become the charity's first patron; a position she held until her death in 1965.

HRH The Duchess of Kent took over as Patron in 1965, until she stepped down from her role 35 years later, in 2000.

She was succeeded by HRH The Princess Royal, who is The Not Forgotten's Patron today.

The Not Forgotten continues to be supported by The Royal Family, who allow them to hold a gathering in Buckingham Palace, and St James's Palace each year for thousands of veterans.

Today

The Not Forgotten uses the motto 'From Comradeship to Challenge' to describe its services, which vary considerably in nature.

They support veterans of all ages, and for that reason, they have expanded their programme of activities over the years to cater to all abilities and tastes. The Not Forgotten continues to host many of the events that contributed to their growth, such as their Garden Party at Buckingham Palace, concerts at care homes, lunches and parties. However, they have also added respite breaks and challenge holidays to their services, so that younger and more ambitious veterans can boost their confidence and wellbeing through activities like skiing, and hiking.

For some veterans, who are bed-bound or isolated at home, their services can also include the delivery of televisions, TV licenses, online concerts, gifts, and phone calls.

They continue to support an average of 10,000 beneficiaries each year, and estimate that they have supported one million beneficiaries since their inception.

More controversy

Kabaret Olgi Lipińskiej was reactivated by the Polish TV station TVP2 on 11 June 2010 and almost immediately became the source of new controversy. It was aired just before the elections, although Lipińska insisted that its theme was non-political and focused on different types of voters instead (i.e. the Parsley or beets episode).Beetroot!"

Spells and Philtres

Spells and Philtres is a collection of poems by Clark Ashton Smith. It was released in 1958 and was the author's fifth book and second collection of poetry to be published by Arkham House. It was released in an edition of 519 copies. The book was a second stop-gap volume following The Dark Chateau. It represented Smith's poetry while the more extensive Selected Poems was being prepared which did not ultimately appear until 1971. The collection also includes several translations of French and Spanish poems. Clérigo Herrero, however, is not a real person and the poem is actually a composition of Smith's.

The Torneo Gran Alternativa (2008) (Spanish for the "Great Alternative Tournament") was a one-night, eight-team professional wrestling tournament held on July 18, 2017 by the Mexican professional wrestling promotion Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL; "World Wrestling Council"). The 2008 Gran Alternativa was the 14th time CMLL held the Torneo Gran Alternativa since the first tournament was held in 1994. The Gran Alternativa tournament concept is to team a young, or low ranking novato up with a veteran wrestler for tag team tournament as a way to highlight the novato wrestlers, potentially elevating one or more of them up the ranks of CMLL. The winning team was awarded a trophy, but no other tangible rewards for winning the tournament.

The 14th version of the Gran ALternativa was held in Arena México, CMLL's primary venue, as part of their Friday night CMLL Super Viernes ("Super Friday") show. The show took place on the same night as the semi-finals of that year's Leyenda de Plata ("Silver Legend") tournament. In the finals of the tournament Novato Dragón Rojo Jr. and veteran Último Guerrero defeated novato Metalik and Dos Caras Jr. to win the tournament. The victory was the start of Dragón Rojo Jr.'s promotional push as he began working higher on the card after the victory, including forming his own group with Black Warrior and Sangre Azteca known as Poder Mexica ("Mexican Power").

History

Starting in 1994 the Mexican professional wrestling promotion Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL) created a special tournament concept where they would team up a novato, or rookie, with a veteran for a single-elimination tag team tournament.El Torneo Gran Alternativa, or "The Great Alternative Tournament" and became a recurring event on the CMLL calendar. While established "veteran" wrestlers participated in the tournament the ultimate goal of the tournament is to feature the novato wrestlers, giving them a chance to perform at a higher level than they normally worked at and as an opportunity to elevate the status of one or more of the competitors.

Spelter

Spelter works at Tindale, Cumbria

Spelter commemorative medal of Queen Victoria (1887)

Spelter is a zinc–lead alloy that ages to resemble bronze, but is softer and has a lower melting point. The name can also refer to a copper–zinc alloy (a brass) used for brazing, or to pure zinc.

Etymology

In his etymology of the English language, 19th-century philologist Walter William Skeat speculated that the word pewter might have been derived from spelter.

Zinc–lead spelter

An inexpensive alloy that is easily cast and worked, spelter was used from the 1860s in the manufacture of candlesticks, clock cases, tableware, and light fixtures. In the early 20th century, sculptors such as Jacques Limousin used spelter heavily in their manufacture of Art Nouveau and Art Deco figurines and other ornaments.

Spelter is relatively soft and brittle. It can be distinguished from bronze by scratching its patina: untarnished spelter is white, while bronze is yellow.

The speltering process

Brass was made using a cementation process but this was replaced by speltering, the direct alloying of copper and zinc metal which was introduced to Europe in the 16th century.

Other uses

Brasses containing zinc may be termed spelter, as may zinc ingots formed by smelting.

Thomas Hees

"Thomas Hees with his nephews Jan and Andries Hees and a servant" by Michiel van Musscher, oil on canvas, 1687, Rijksmuseum. The coat of arms above the mirror depicts the lion of the County of Holland.

Thomas Hees (1634 - 1693) was a Dutch diplomat, active in the negotiations of the States General with the corsairs of Barbary. He is mostly known through his famous portrait (painted by Michiel van Musscher) but also thanks to the journal which he kept during his first mission in Algiers.

Early life

Hees was born to a wealthy family of Weesp in 1634. At the age of 20, he was enrolled in the faculty of Philosophy of the University of Leiden, only to switch to medicine four years later. He completed his medical studies in Angers and then returned to the Republic in 1660 where he was named doctor(geneesheer) at the "Collegium Medicum" of Amsterdam. In 1664-5 he accompanied Jacob Boreel during his embassy to the court of czar Alexis I in Moscow.

Missions in Barbary

Even though the Dutch had acquired their own Capitulations by the Ottoman Porte in Constantinople as early as 1612,Algiers, Tunis and Tripoli (still nominally under the suzerainty of the Sultan) kept on preying on Dutch shipping passing through the Straits, taking hundreds of sailors as slaves in the process. The Dutch government retaliated with a number of punitive expeditions, the most famous of which were the three missions of Michiel de Ruyter in the Mediterranean. In 1674, Algiers decided that it could not keep up fighting against all of the European maritime powers and called on the States General to send an envoy in order to negotiate the terms of a potential peace. The man chosen for this mission was Thomas Hees, who was dispatched to Algiers in 1675, bearing the title of “commissaris”.Nieuwe Kerk on September 3 of that year.
