from 2012 on the public broadcasting system on the 75th anniversary of the hindenburg dirigible disaster a man approached one of the organizers to tell him about a film that his uncle recorded on that

detectives suggests that it was broken up by extra high rogue waves during a hurricane force storm the investigating board was quick to blame employee error in leaving hatch covers improperly latched although the sailor s lives depended on doing it right however other ships on the great lakes are known to have broken in half without warning if it weren t for the testimony of a single survivor it too might have been written off as employee error another ship manufactured in the same way developed cracks and broke up while being towed away for demolition at the time the edmund fitzgerald sank the load limits had been increased so that it was carrying more than it was designed for and riding lower in the water it had been inspected for structural safety only ten days before the edmund fitzgerald both ships are lakers long broad ships limited by the size of the smallest locks that they ll pass through the assumption in building them is that the lakes do not develop waves large enough to say lift the ends of the ship and leave the middle unsupported or vice versa or to twist it like a sponge ocean going ships or salties are shorter with the bridge in the middle to help reinforce the ship s body the superstructures of lakers are at the ends leaving a large area free for cargo loading but leaving the middle weaker share this share on facebook opens in new window

comments ttc s new web page is in beta test june 7 2008 monado the toronto transit commission s new web site is in beta test which means it s not in production but we can visit it and the ttc wants our feedback to finalize the design you ll be doing yourself and myriads of ttc users a favour the toronto star reports that the ttc s new home page is still a work in progress tess kalinowski transportation reporter now there s a better way to navigate the ttc online but the transit agency isn t home yet when it comes to its new website the ttc previewed its long awaited homepage today to replace the version it s been running since 1998 with new easy to read graphics and search engines for bus and streetcar routes it nevertheless doesn t yet have a trip planning tool or up to the minute service updates for the system those features along with an e commerce function will be added by next year said the ttc s marketing manager alice smith eventually the ttc s site will function like the chicago transit system s where users can actually watch the buses and see delays said commission chair adam giambrone a quick look at the old site this is the ttc s old home page it s quite long notice the link at the top to the new site the badges in the old page are links to sub pages those might be in the ttc s own web site this is the result of clicking ttc service or they might go to a page in the extensive city of toronto web site the new site the new site has an introduction it uses a lot of abstract nouns and needs a plain language rewrite then you click continue to get to the new home page this new web page is quite wide about 960 pixels people with older monitors might not realize that there s a far right hand column with more choices unless they have horizontal scrolling turned on and they look at the horizontal scroll bar the new site looks pretty it uses the streetcars colours of red black and white but close your eyes half way and squint at the screen you ll see that the heavy black bar across the top is the strongest visual element it pulls your eye away from the more important text below because of the strong horizontal elements it took me a while to realize that the menus should be read vertically from the heading above the line four topic areas are headed by a red line faintly divided by grey bars and with a dot like a station on a route map to me the dot separated the menus from their title rather than connecting them the site is divided logically into four main topic areas schedules maps fares passes riding the ttc service alerts this is the schedules maps area it was not obvious to me that the three symbols along the top stand for the three kinds of routes perhaps the symbols could be placed vertically with their descriptions beside them also there s lots of room to write rapid transit or rail transit instead of the cryptic rt when in doubt spell it out there s a place holder for a link to the future trip planner i hope that it will allow you to say when you want to arrive will tell you when you have to leave instead of just asking you when you want to leave or perhaps it will even ask you which way of planning to use to get to a schedule click in one of subways buses or streetcars if you know your route number such as 501c you can type it instead of searching through the schedule menus i chose streetcar routes you go to a second level menu of major routes select a route i chose 501 queen the white on black text at the top of the route tells you that this is for eastbound streetcars many people can t read reverse video easily and will read westbound more clearly than eastbound the schedules have the very nice feature of showing the next vehicle scheduled to go by in each direction in future you may see real time results the next scheduled arrivals appear at main intersections for active routes if you select a sub route you get a more detailed schedule unlike the streetcars menu the service alerts menu is scattered over the page the service alerts menu makes your eye rove around to see all the choices this seems like an attempt to use up all that horizontal white space there s nothing wrong with the old vertical format if drill down a level in the new web site you ll find that warnings such as construction projects are unfinished until the web pages are are complete i think that they should link to the updates on the city of toronto site as the old web site does the star is correct it s a work in progress take time to visit the new site and leave your feedback we can help the ttc to improve their user experience if we act now first go and roam around the ttc beta site then return to its home page at the bottom is a link to a survey follow the link and fill out the survey share this share
