Good News - May 1-7

Like these weekly compilations? Support me on Ko-fi! Also, if you tip me on Ko-fi, at the end of the month I'll send you a link to all of the articles I found but didn't use each week - almost double the content!

1. New study says conservation works, providing hope for biodiversity efforts

“A new study published in Science reveals that conservation works, with conservation actions improving or slowing the decline of biodiversity in two-thirds of the cases analyzed.”

2. Monk Seal Pup Debuts in Waikīkī on Lei Day

“Endangered Hawaiian monk seal RK96 (Kaiwi) gave birth to her sixth pup on popular Kaimana Beach in Waikīkī, Oʻahu! […] Hawaiian monk seals are one of the most endangered seal species in the world, so each pup represents hope for the species’ recovery.”

3. West Coast Indigenous-led marine conservation area gets global spotlight

“A coastal First Nation is celebrating global recognition of its marine protected area after recently snagging a “blue park” designation that highlights exemplary ocean conservation efforts around the world. […] Kitasu Bay supports one of the last abundant herring spawns along the central coast, vital to the nation’s communal herring roe on kelp (ROK) fishery - which harvests the protein-rich eggs but leaves the fish alive to flourish and spawn again.”

4. The number of fish on US overfishing list reaches an all-time low. Mackerel and snapper recover

“The report states that 94% of fish stocks are not subject to overfishing, which is slightly better than a year ago. The U.S. was able to remove several important fish stocks from the overfishing list, NOAA said in a statement. […] The removal of species from the overfishing list shows the U.S. is making progress, said Rick Spinrad, NOAA’s administrator.”

5. Researchers Collaborate with the Shipping Industry to Cut Costs, Fuel Consumption and Greenhouse Gas Emissions in Shipping

“Through coordinated ship scheduling and an optimisation of ship operations and port services, the objective is to achieve a substantial increase in energy efficiency and a 10-20% reduction in fuel consumption, consequently resulting in lowered greenhouse gas emissions [and] leading to substantial economic benefits for shipping and environmental advantages for society[….]”

6. The city flower farm that is changing lives

“Heart of BS13 Flowers in Hartcliffe is part of the wider Heart of BS13 charity which tackles food insecurity in south Bristol. Profits from the flower sales to run workshops, offer volunteer and trainee placements, and create education opportunities for people from Hartcliffe.”

7. Four falcon chicks hatch in Glasgow university tower

“Members of the [Glasgow Peregrine] project hope to […] fit [the chicks] with electronic tags that will enable monitoring of their movements. Mr Simpson added: "With the identification tags we can see where they have gone, how high they fly and other information that would be really useful." In recent years the group have held peregrine watches at the university, allowing people to see the birds in their nest.”

8. 'Banana pingers' are saving whales and dolphins around the world

“[T]he Kibel brothers, Pete (a fisheries biologist) and Ben (an engineer) […] have been utilising light to protect turtles, sound to protect porpoises and electro pulses to protect sharks. [… Trials] showed reduced average catch rates of blue shark by 91%, and catch rates of pelagic stingray by 71% […as well as] a fall in the number of sea turtles being trapped by 42%.”

9. New vaccine effective against coronaviruses that haven't even emerged yet

“Researchers have developed a new vaccine technology that has been shown in mice to provide protection against a broad range of coronaviruses with potential for future disease outbreaks -- including ones we don't even know about. […] The new vaccine works by training the body's immune system to recognise specific regions of eight different coronaviruses, including SARS-CoV-1, SARS-CoV-2, and several that are currently circulating in bats and have potential to jump to humans and cause a pandemic.”

10. Grassland birds, Forest birds and Other Migratory Birds to Benefit from More Than $22 Million in Funding Throughout the Americas

“This year, more than $4.87 million in federal funds will be matched by more than $17 million in partner contributions going to 30 collaborative conservation projects in 19 countries across the Americas. “These investments will [… protect] millions of acres of diverse habitats needed by grassland birds, forest birds and shorebirds for wintering, breeding and migration,” said Service Director Martha Williams.”

What kind of lives do you think Eric and Dylan would have lead had they not committed the massacre?

Dylan was depressed, would he have ever sought help or ended his life regardless?

Eric was banking on the marines but couldn’t join because of his medication. Would he have found something else had he not given in to hate?

Pardon all my rambles! You’re my favorite tcc, Columbine specific blog.

aww thank you!! i am honored to be on the list of favorites!

i think about this sometimes. the optimistic part of me thinks that if dylan didn’t eventually kill himself (i feel like there was a solid change he was going to do that no matter what), he would’ve really enjoyed working with computers and technology. i am reminded of brooks, who has jumped around in software-based jobs over the years. brooks’s brother became an audio engineer, and zack became the ceo of an IT management company. i reference them because we can kind of use them as springboards for imagining dylan’s trajectory. maybe him and zack would’ve gone into business together? dylan probably would’ve gotten into software engineering or maybe he would’ve been the manager of a best buy lol. the fact that he was gunning (no pun intended) for a college education put him ahead of byron already.

like i said, i do feel that dylan was probably always going to be destined for suicide because there just were no resources around him to prevent him from doing so. maybe he would’ve thrived and enjoyed being at college enough that he wouldn’t, but it’s really hard to say. he was pretty deep down the rabbit hole. it’s sad, there was nobody looking out for either of them.

for eric — i genuinely don’t know this, but can you even join the reserves if you take SSRIs? or is it all just strictly a no-go? i often see people speculating that he would’ve gone on to design video games. i think the passion was definitely there for him, but even he didn’t really know where he wanted to end up. he wasn’t super interested in college and, when he did mention it, he was pretty casually mentioning just going to community college. realistically, he’d probably be working in the trades. he probably could’ve been good at sales, so maybe he’d be a car salesman or maybe he’d be selling software. in 2024, maybe he’d be doing a WFH technical support job. i feel like those are reasonably realistic options.

i don’t know if dylan would have ever been interested in parenthood, but i think eric could have been. you never know tho, some of the weirdest, shittest dudes end up being someone’s baby daddy lol

what do you think? where do you think their lives would have gone?

IMAGES: B-1 bombers make a historic visit to Turkey

Turkish Air Force integrates with U.S. bombers on a long-planned mission.

Fernando Valduga By Fernando Valduga 11/02/2023 - 12:56in Military

Two U.S. Air Force B-1B Lancers bombers assigned to the 9º Expeditionary Bomber Squadron arrived on Tuesday (10/31) at Incirlik Air Base, Turkey, for a historic hot-pit refueling as part of the long-planned bomber task force training mission.

A hot-pit refueling refers to the tactic of refueling aircraft while the engines are still running. This marks the first time that U.S. Air Force B-1 has been replenished in this way at Incirlik Air Base. The aircraft stayed at the base for less than two hours before leaving for a training mission with the Turkish Air Force.

TAP TITLE BAR TO VIEW VIDEO ☝️

The Deputy Commander of the Wing of the 39ª Air Base, Colonel Robert Schoeneberg of the U.S. Air Force, and the Chief Command of the Wing of the 39ª Air Base, Chief Sergeant. Kevin Helms greeted the Commander of the 9º EBS, U.S. Air Force Colonel Lieutenant Ryan Stillwell, and the Sub-Commander of the 489º Bombing Group Command, U.S. Air Force Lieutenant Colonel Andrew Marshall on the flight line.

The B-1s integrated with the Turkish military, including the KC-135R Asena refuelers and the F-16 Fighting Falcons, for training missions planned well in advance to practice Joint Terminal Attack Controller (JTAC) procedures and close air support training missions.

“Teamwork with our Turkish air force partners has demonstrated the interoperability and professionalism of NATO aviators,” Stillwell said. “Thank you to the 10ª Tank Base and 39ª Wing Team Titan Air Base for their specialized support and hospitality.”

Incirlik Air Base is one of the largest military facilities in Turkey and its strategic location makes it a center for NATO integration and the defense of NATO's southern flank.

“We are excited to support and celebrate this historic refueling operation in Incirlik,” Schoeneberg said. "This demonstrates the unique capabilities and strategic positioning of this base. In addition, it highlights for everyone that Turkey is a critical member of the NATO alliance and that Team Titan is open to business."

BRITISH MADE TITANIUM WATCHES

Let's talk titanium watches and more specifically - titanium. Discovered in Cornwall in 1791, and there we have a nice link to the Blacklamp Carbon watch we made which has a structure akin to the crazy geology of the cliffs of Milook Haven near Bude. Titanium was named after the Greek Titans. It is the 7th most abundant metal in the Earth's crust. It has been detected in the sun, M-type stars, meteorites and it makes up 12.1% of moon rock composition. But that is generally an oxide because pure metallic titanium is very rare. 95% of all titanium ore is refined into titanium dioxide, a white pigment used in pretty much everything that is white - paint, sunscreen, toothpaste, paper, plastics, etc... Seen here is the Blacklamp Carbon, not for sale.

So why is titanium such a cool material for watches? Titanium reacts immediately with air to form a thin non-porous passivation layer that continues to grow for about 4 years to a thickness of 25nm. A shield that protects the body of metal. This makes titanium watches as corrosion resistant as platinum ones. It is non-magnetic, it has the highest strength to weight ratio of any metal. Titanium is roughly 40% lighter than steel but just as strong. Twice the strength of aluminium but only 60% heavier and it is here that we have the titanium watches paradox. Whilst it is a commonly accepted metal for watch cases it falls short for luxury heft. On paper it should be the number one metal for cases but alas, if it is not heavy it is not precious. It is more expensive than steel as a raw material and is more difficult to machine but within the luxury sector cost is not the limiting factor in its ubiquity, it is weight.

That said, and thanks the Citizen X-8 in 1970 who were the first to use it, we see more titanium watches on the market every year, so perhaps the on-paper specs make more sense than our senses. Rolex launched its first ever commercially available full titanium watch in 2022 marking an important milestone for the metal's luxury value. Even though every other watchmaker of note has had to make a titanium watch, very few are vaulted and coveted like their steel counterparts. As of 2023, you could look at Audemars Piguet, Grand Seiko and Vacheron Constantin for some stellar examples.

Where does the Strange Lights fit in? For starters the case, including the case back are fully machined and finished in the UK, the cases are machined in Dorset and we do the finishing here in Sussex. The laser engraving is done between the two counties in Hampshire. We use Grade 5 Ti-6AL-4V (similar to the Rolex Sea Dweller RLX and the same as Richard Mille), an alloy with 6% aluminium and 4% vanadium. It is an expensive alloy favoured for its hardness and machining capabilities. However, titanium has poor thermal conductivity so heat builds up between the surface of the part and the cutting tool, thus creating a characteristic chatter in the cut as the tool expands and shrinks, so you will also see greater tool wear. We use state-of-the-art 5 axis CNC mills with skilled engineers who work with titanium all day long, especially within the military sector. In short, they know what they are doing and that mitigates the difficulties of working with this metal. So, to see the quality of finish as we do on the Strange Lights is testament to the quality of the case machining and precision.

The Strange Lights brings together the Schofield themes of sea and space. Titanium has so many specialist applications both in marine and space exploration. The International Space Station is estimated to have 22,226 Kg of titanium onboard comprising 7% of its total mass. So, the Strange Lights had to be titanium as soon as the idea took hold. The case back features a romantic look at these notions with the use of a 1950s UFO shining its light/beam on Smeaton's Tower Lighthouse, a strange light that would be! But we also see a star circle, not just showing the passing of time but also a map or a guide. The fact that this design is like a mission patch is no coincidence. SWC SL-1 (indicating that one day they may be more iterations of this watch) is mechanically engraved on the side giving us this ship's identity.

The Strange Lights is a limited watch in two dial colours; Not Quite Green and Not Quite Red, port and starboard lights. In the sky or on the water?

The RMS Carpathia unloads the salvage from the Titanic

RMS Carpathia changed into a Cunard Line transatlantic passenger steamship constructed through Swan Hunter & Wigham Richardson of their shipyard in Wallsend, England. The Carpathia made her maiden voyage in 1903 from Liverpool to Boston and persisted in this path earlier than being transferred to the Mediterranean carrier in 1904. In April 1912, she have become well-known for rescuing survivors of the rival White Star Line's RMS Titanic after the latter struck an iceberg and sank with the lack of among 1,490 and 1,635 human beings withinside the North Atlantic Ocean.

Around 12:20 AM on April 15th, 1912, the RMS Titanic despatched out a fateful misery call.

The deliver had simply made touch with an iceberg all through its maiden voyage. The catastrophe had already begun when the close by RMS Carpathia obtained the messageclose by RMS Carpathia acquired the message, the catastrophe had already begun. However, the Carpathia nevertheless arrived in time to store over seven hundred passengers and group participants from the Titanic carpathia wreck.

The Royal Mail Ship (RMS) Carpathia spent over eighty years at the lowest of the ocean after an come upon with German submarines in World War I. Only inside the final twenty years has the Carpathia again to the world. Now, a choice of salvaged artifacts from the RMS Carpathia’s watery grave will come to public sale with Ahlers & Ogletree on January 15th, 2021.

The RMS Carpathia break become quickly received via way of means of Premier Exhibitions Inc., an American corporation that still manages relics from the Titanic. A 2007 excursion retrieved artifacts from the Carpathia. The upcoming Ahlers & Ogletree RMS Carpathia ship public sale gives ninety four objects from that trip, together with numerous tableware objects and portions of the ship. Leading the catalog is a exceptional soup plate from the rms Carpathia (estimate: USD 700 – $900). This signature blue-and-white ‘Ormond’ sample is specific to Cunard ships. It indicates vegetation and leaves wrapping round the threshold of every dish with the corporation emblem withinside the center. The ambitious sample set those dishes other than the third-elegance dinnerware, which lacked all ornament and color. Several other ‘Ormond’ portions might be to be had withinside the public sale, together with cups and saucers.

The sale can even consist of portions of the Carpathia spoil itself. One of the salvaged portholes (estimate: $700 – $900) nonetheless consists of the unique glass in a brass and bronze frame. Collectors can even discover a pair of binoculars with glass lenses, numerous linoleum tiles probable from the third-magnificence eating room, and a coat hook. Those seeking out greater uncommon Carpathia artifacts will discover unmarried portions of coal recovered from the engines. Bidding begins offevolved at $25 apiece. Other Carpathia objects have come to public sale withinside the years when you consider that its discovery, on the whole memorabilia stored earlier than its sinking. The highest-profile portions are the ones referring to the Titanic wreck, together with a navigational sextant used at some point of the rescue. The pinnacle lot of the sale became a salvaged porthole with partial timber from the Carpathia. It offered for $13,000 after attracting 28 bids. Close in the back of became a salvaged engine telegraph from the ship, which achieved $12,000 in opposition to a presale estimate of $500 to $700. The RMS Carpathia public sale became out extra sturdy expenses for a salvaged engine order telegraph ($12,000), a salvaged deck mild with globe ($12,000), a salvaged marine chronometer ($9,500), and an iron drain grill from the ship ($4,250).

29th March 1958 saw the death of Sir William Burrell.

William Burrell, the shipping magnate who amassed a giant art collection and then gave it away, is perhaps both one of the best-known names and least-known characters in Scottish philanthropy.

I first learned of William Burrell through my mum in the early 80’s, he was born into a shipping family and ran the business with one of his brothers, George after his fathers death.

In 1876 William entered the firm at the age of 15, and on his father’s death in 1885 he and his eldest brother George took over the management. the firm was already prospering, but under their shrewd direction it reached a position of international standing in worldwide tramping and in ship management.

The Burrell brothers undoubtedly had the Midas touch. George kept abreast of developments in marine engineering while William specialized in the commercial side. Their fortunes were based on a steady nerve, foresight and breath-taking boldness. The formula was quite simple. In times of depression they would order a large number of ships at rock-bottom prices, calculating that the vessels would be coming off the stocks when the slump was reaching an end. Burrell and Son was then in a position to attract cargoes because it had ships available and could undercut its rivals. Then, after several years of highly profitable trading, the brothers would sell the fleet in a boom period and lie low until the next slump occurred, it was a simple idea for them and very shrewd, none of their rivals were brave enough to take the risk and the firm went from strength to strength. It was when the firm were at there peak William became one of the most important collectors in Scotland. His interest in art went back to his youth. While still a boy he was already buying pictures, although he used to say in later years that their chief value lay in the frames.

Although it is not known what sparked off Burrell’s love of art, there were plenty of opportunities in late 19th century Glasgow for him to form his tastes. A number of collectors were to be found amongst the wealthy Scottish industrialists and shipowners of the time.

An estimate of Burrell’s early interests can be obtained from his loans to the Glasgow International Exhibition of 1901, when he was the largest single lender with more than two hundred works. Their range and scope show that he was already a collector of major standing. They included medieval tapestries, ivories, wood and alabaster sculpture, stained glass and bronzes, Roman glass, 16th and 18th-century Dutch, German and Venetian table glass, silver, furniture and Persian rugs. The paintings are by too many artists to mention here without it looking like a shopping list, but Whistler, Manet and Monticello were among his purchases.

Between 1901 and 1911 little is known of Burrell’s collecting, apart from his acquisition of some fine pictures, including his first Degas. Unfortunately, at the same time he was selling as well as buying, a policy he was to continue even after the sale of the fleet had removed any major financial restrictions on the scale of his spending on art. In 1902, for example, he sent nearly forty pictures for auction, and among those sold were paintings by Daumier and Manet which are now in the United States.

From 1911 until 1957 Burrell kept detailed records of his expenditure in twenty-eight school exercise books. He made almost all the entries himself, except during the last few months when failing eyesight compelled him to delegate the task to others. These purchase books are an invaluable record of the astounding range and scale of his collecting. Although the entries tend to become more detailed as the years go by, the basic format was established on the first page of the first book. There are separate columns for date of acquisition, description, from whom the item was acquired, its price, date of delivery, insurance and whether photographed. The last column is headed “All in Order” and usually has Burrell’s initials.

Burrell was never an easy client. He was strong-minded, liked to haggle over prices and could be very cautious., well what would you expect from a canny Scot! Even dealers with whom he had done business over some years would find him seeking a second opinion on an object they were attempting to sell him. His collection is only bettered by some of the major museums across the British Isles.

Until about 1930 Burrell seems to have been buying merely for his personal enjoyment, with no thought of forming a collection which would be kept together after his death. Until then he continued to sell or exchange paintings, but in the 1930s he formed the idea not only of having a permanent collection but of handing it over to public ownership. Burrell had discussions with a number of interested parties regarding the disposal of the Collection, and eventually, in 1944, it was donated to Glasgow, the city of his birth and centre of his business activities, in the names of himself and and his wife.

A few years later he gave the then Glasgow Corporation £450,000 for the construction of a building in which the Collection was to be housed and displayed. The terms of the Deed of Gift as regards this building, however, presented difficulties. Burrell stated that it should be within four miles of Killearn in Stirlingshire and not less than sixteen miles from the Royal Exchange in Glasgow. He felt that the Collection would appear to best advantage in a rural setting and was also deeply concerned at the harm which could be caused by the high levels of air pollution then prevailing over Glasgow. The councillors and Corporation officials were aware of the problems in, firstly, finding a suitable site and then in administering a museum so far removed from the city, but attempts to persuade Burrell to make his conditions less stringent met with little success. Various sites were considered, but the issue was still unresolved at the time of Burrell’s death. It was only nine years later, in 1967, when Mrs Anne Maxwell Macdonald presented Pollok House and estate to the City of Glasgow, that a site was at last found.

Sadly, he did not live to see them in the gallery in Pollok Park, where they form such an important feature. He died at Hutton Castle on 29th March 1958, at the age of 96.

A design competition for the museum building in 1971 was delayed by a postal strike, allowing time for the eventual winning architect Barry Gasson. I have no idea why it took so long to actually get it built, but it’s size was maybe a factor. The building is the second largest post war building in Scotland, the abandoned St Peter’s Seminary at Cardross being the largest. The Burrell Collectioned opened it’s doors in 1983. So far, more than 1.3 million people have visited exhibitions

The Burrell Collection closed to the public in October 2016 in order to embark on a programme of refurbishment. It was reopened last year, after covid caused delays.

[ savannah lee smith | cis woman | she / her | twenty-six ] —— it’s just another typical week in hawkins i guess — isn’t that right, monica mckinney? huh, guess they can’t hear me over maneater by daryl hall & john oates playing on their walkman, but it looks like they’re headed to work at lovelace lingerie. did you know monnie has been in hawkins for her entire life? yeah, they’ve been described as a bit judgemental, but i suppose them also being poised outweighs the negative. i’ve also heard people say they remind them of an old cheerleader uniform collecting dust in the back of your closet, a collection of plaid skirts and babydoll dresses, a permanent hole in your heart like a missing puzzle piece, using men as an accessory to a new outfit, and the feeling of being alienated from your own surname… however, that could just be this weeks newest rumor.

character inspirations — dionne davenport (clueless), shiv roy (succession), blair waldorf (gossip girl), aubrey hope (gossip girl reboot), olivia pope (scandal), hanna marin (pretty little liars), bianca stratford (10 things i hate about you), madeline mackenzie (big little lies), north (detroit: become human).

full name — monica mckinney nickname(s) — monnie, mon, mckinney name meaning — unique, to advise, alone, nun, solitary age — twenty-six date of birth — january 2nd, 1960 place of birth — hawkins, indiana current location — hawkins, indiana gender — cis female pronouns — she / her sexual orientation — heterosexual ? but why are girls so pretty and why do they smell so good and why (she is a lesbian) religion — catholic occupation — owner & sales expert at lovelace lingerie education level — bachelors in business and fashion merchandice residence — single family home with jason & izzy family — douglas mckinney, father. maura robinson mckinney, mother. patrick mckinney, younger brother, deceased. finances — upper middle class spoken languages — english faceclaim — savannah lee smith

tw: abuse mention, implied abuse, mention of hard drug use

bread and born like championship horses, the mckinney household was held to very high standards. maura robinson met douglas mckinney in university where maura attended for an mrs. degree and douglas ? engineering. he was a few months from graduation when maura stuck her nails into douglas’ back. he had a future, came from a great family name, and could allow maura to get her ❛ degree ❜ within her first year of school, letting her party the rest of it away.

married before maura’s senior year was over, she swiftly moved into douglas’ single family home he already owned — and maura went straight into decorating. she turned the place into a home and with a home comes the next step in their relationship. the first born was monica herself, followed closely by patrick. two beautiful children was enough for maura, and all douglas really wanted was a son.

monica grew up in a semi-normal, albeit, very privileged life. her father came from money and rose the ranks fairly quickly in his bland corporate business career. maura and monnie didn’t care what he did, only that he brought home the money to support them and their vastly expensive tastes. monnie learned her taste after her mother. money and material goods were in place of love and affection, and monnie didn’t care.

she was fairly popular in school, mostly since she bought her way into it. her friends were fake, but they were there. the only real friends she made were on the cheer squad — especially veronica. to stay in shape and keep up with appearances and popularity, monnie joined the cheer squad in high school after doing cheer for a few years on a private team. it was something she enjoyed because there was a certain power in it that everyone had. the boys wanted you, the girls wanted to be you. influence was all she ever wanted.

and, oh, did boys want monnie. she is very aware and confident in and of her sexual nature, its one of the one things she is very sure of in herself. she didn’t care if it was because she came from money and made any guy on her arm the new coolest kid in school. she just wanted an accessory — and when they got too invested, she’d try a new one on. there was never any real feelings in her multitude of relationships, which she could easily blame on the lack of example offered to her by her own parents. everything in her life was transactional. so much so that she often wondered why she never actually liked any of the men she dated (... lol)

but patrick ? oh, patrick was different. he was such a good kid. always sticking up to bullies and even working his way up when it came to gaining friends and sudden popularity as well. having monnie for an older sister probably helped, but patrick got onto the basketball team all on his own. he liked the team, even if he didn’t agree with everything they said or did. he was the better, nicer mckinney kid, and everyone knew it.

things started taking a turn for the worse when monnie was in her last year of university. she was close to getting her degree and moving somewhere like new york or europe for fashion when she found out about the abuse. she surprised patrick at home one night when she noticed the first bruise.

patrick told her about everything that night in her car. he talked about the way dad was acting and how his attitude had suddenly shifted. he was normally an absent father, but now he needed to know everything that was going on in patrick’s life. how he suspected alcohol at first, but then he found the baggie he had been hiding in his briefcase.

he then talked about when the hitting started. first, it was when patrick got in the way, then it turned personal. maura was never involved, but she also never involved herself. her after university plans changed that visit and she decided staying in hawkins would be best — at least until patrick was able to leave too. back at home, monnie would help try to cover his bruises with her makeup, but the bruises were always too multi-colored for her foundations to work.

then, all of a sudden, patrick was gone. something about a murderer on the loose who had already killed two people — patrick now being their third. but when monnie went to see his body, she knew there could never be someone capable of doing what had happened to patrick. she knew abuse like the back of her hand, and the stories of witchcraft and satanism weren’t enough for monnie to feel okay about patrick being gone. she wouldn’t accept it.

especially when the stories came out from his friends about him being lifted into the air, crumbling together, only to fall back into the waters of lovers lake. a spot she used to frequent when she was in school but now refuses to go near. and then when the earthquake hit and the news broke out on what was ruled the cause of patricks death ? monnie couldn’t deal. she doesn’t believe that munson kid killed her little brother, but she most definitely doesn’t believe what happened to his body was due to exposure. wrong place wrong time.

monnie is now the only child in the mckinney household. she acts as though his death didnt do anything to her or change her at all, but it did — it changed her family quite a lot too. her mom finally left her dad and he skipped town. monnie hates that it took patricks death for their father to finally leave.

after the earthquake and when the town started to settle did monnie settle, too. she couldn’t leave hawkins now — not when her brother was buried here and not when she didn’t have answers. instead, monnie restarted up the lovelace lingerie at the mall, becoming the new owner of the establishment. and then she bought a small house to fit her needs just perfectly.

still a wild bitch, monnie is being as true to herself as possible, while also trying to not let patrick’s death influence her life too much. something she’s already failing at.

Monel Prices, Price Trend, Pricing, News, Analysis & Forecast

Monel Prices, a popular alloy composed of nickel and copper, plays a vital role in various industries due to its exceptional corrosion resistance and high strength. As a result, monitoring Monel prices is crucial for businesses reliant on this alloy. The pricing of Monel is influenced by several factors, including the cost of nickel and copper, supply and demand dynamics, geopolitical events, and market speculation.

One of the primary determinants of Monel prices is the cost of its raw materials, nickel, and copper. Since Monel is predominantly made of these metals, any fluctuations in their prices directly impact the cost of producing Monel. Nickel prices, in particular, have a significant influence on Monel pricing, as nickel constitutes a substantial portion of the alloy. Factors affecting nickel prices include global demand from industries like stainless steel manufacturing, geopolitical tensions in nickel-producing regions, and currency fluctuations.

Moreover, the demand-supply dynamics of Monel also play a crucial role in determining its price. Increased demand for Monel in industries such as aerospace, marine engineering, chemical processing, and oil and gas can lead to higher prices, especially if the supply cannot keep pace with the demand. Conversely, a surplus of Monel in the market can drive prices down due to oversupply.

Get Real Time Prices of Monel: https://www.chemanalyst.com/Pricing-data/monel-1364Geopolitical events and economic factors can also impact Monel prices. Political instability in regions where nickel or copper is mined can disrupt supply chains, leading to price volatility. Additionally, economic indicators such as GDP growth, industrial production, and inflation rates can affect the demand for Monel, thereby influencing its prices.

Market speculation and investor sentiment further contribute to Monel price fluctuations. Traders and investors closely monitor market trends, news, and forecasts to make informed decisions about buying or selling Monel futures and options. Speculative buying or selling based on perceived future price movements can cause short-term price spikes or declines.

In recent years, environmental regulations and sustainability concerns have also begun to influence Monel prices. As industries strive to reduce their carbon footprint and comply with stricter environmental standards, the demand for eco-friendly materials like Monel, known for its durability and recyclability, is expected to rise. Consequently, this increased demand may lead to higher prices for Monel in the long term.

In conclusion, monitoring Monel prices is essential for businesses across various industries that rely on this versatile alloy for its exceptional properties. Factors such as the cost of raw materials, supply and demand dynamics, geopolitical events, economic indicators, market speculation, and environmental considerations collectively determine the price of Monel. By staying informed about these factors and their potential impact on Monel prices, businesses can make informed decisions to manage costs and optimize their operations.

Lockheed receives $7.6 billion to build 129 F-35 fighters from Lot 15

Fernando Valduga By Fernando Valduga 08/14/2022 - 11:25 AM in Military

The U.S. Navy granted Lockheed Martin a $7.6 billion contract modification to produce 129 fifth-generation Lot 15 F-35 fighters in all variants.

The contract includes 49 F-35A aircraft (conventional takeoff) for the U.S. Air Force, three F-35B aircraft (short takeoff and vertical landing) and 10 F-35C aircraft (aircraft carrier variant) for the Marine Corps.

Also included are 15 F-35Cs for the U.S. Navy, 32 F-35A aircraft and four F-35B aircraft for participants outside the U.S. Department of Defense and 16 F-35A aircraft for foreign customers.

The announcement of the Pentagon contract said that the work under this modification should be completed in October 2024.

In a separate notice, the Pentagon said that Lockheed Martin was also receiving a $53.4 million modification for “continuous engineering and other related activities in support of the design and development of a variant of the Joint Strike Fighter aircraft adapted for foreign military sales (FMS) from an unspecified customer.”

The Pentagon did not reveal the customer, but it is worth noting that Israel is working on a special variant of the F-35 that will allow the Israeli Air Force to exclusively integrate certain technologies native to the F-35. Israel received the first of these unique fuselages in 2020.

According to Lockheed Martin's latest data sheet on the F-35 program, the company delivered more than 825 jets to nine countries. The global fleet has accumulated more than 550,000 flight hours with more than 323,000 missions.
