By mid-year 2006 the construction project was going well when on June 9th the accommodation block was devastated by fire.
The Emma Mærsk was about six-seven weeks delayed.
The delay caused by a devastating fire in the accommodation quarters in the early days of June.
A welding job on the main deck, close to the end of working hours, led to a fire that totally destroyed the almost finished accommodation quarters and all the equipment in the wheelhouse.
The fire was large and devastating.

I am a KEPT woman
I Am a 'KEPT' Woman!
You see, there were a few times when I thought I would lose my mind,
But GOD KEPT me sane. (Isa. 26:3)
There were times when I thought I could go on no longer,
But the LORD KEPT me moving. (Gen 28:15)
At times, I've wanted to lash out at those whom I felt had done me wrong,
But the LORD KEPT my mouth shut. (Psa. 13)
Sometimes, I think the money just isn't enough,
But God has proved Himself over and over by supplying all needs(Matt. 6:25 -34)
When I thought I would fall, HE KEPT me up..
When I thought I was weak, HE KEPT me strong! (I Pet. 5:7, Matt. 11:28-30)
I could go on and on and on, but I'm sure you hear me!
I'm blessed to be 'KEPT.'
Are you...or do you know a 'KEPT' woman ?
If so pass it on to her to let her know she is 'KEPT'
I'm KEPT by the Love and Grace of God!
I am indeed a 'KEPT' woman and praise God for it!
Hope you can share this with other KEPT women!

God does
God Does
When you feel unlovable, unworthy, and unclean,
when you think that no one can heal you,
Remember, Friend, God Can.
When you think that you are unforgivable
for your guilt and your shame,
Remember, Friend, God Can.
When you think that all is hidden,
and no one can see within,
Remember, Friend, God Can.
And when you have reached the bottom,
And you think that no one can hear,
Remember, my dear friend, God Can.
And when you think that no one can love,
the real person deep inside of you,
Remember, my dear friend, God Does!
Fish with a transparent head
Fish With Transparent Head, "Barrel" Eyes
With a head like a fighter-plane cockpit, a Pacific barreleye fish shows off its highly sensitive,
barrel-like eyes--topped by green, orblike structures.
The fish, discovered alive in the deep water off California's central coast by the Monterey Bay
Aquarium Research Institute, is the first specimen of its kind to be found with its soft transparent dome intact.
The 6-inch (15-centimeter) barreleye (Macropinna microstoma) had been known since 1939,
but only from mangled specimens dragged to the surface by nets.
The beady bits on the front of the Pacific barreleye fish in this picture, aren't eyes but smell organs.
The grayish, barrel-like eyes are beneath the green domes, which may filter light.
In this picture the eyes are pointing upward--the better to see prey above in the darkness of the barreleye's deep-sea home.
Since the eyes are upright tubes, "it just looked like [they only] looked straight up.
But by watching live fish from a remotely operated vehicle (ROV) and by bringing a barrelfish to an aquarium for study,
the scientists discovered that the eyes can pivot, like a birdwatcher pointing binoculars.
The transparent-headed Pacific barreleyes may steal fish from siphonophores--jellies that can grow to more than 33 feet (10 meters) long.
The barreleye's flat, horizontal fins may allow it to swim very precisely among the siphonophore's stinging tentacles--and if the fish fumbles,
the clear, helmet-like shield may protect its eyes.
The barreleye lives more than 2,000 feet (600 meters) beneath the ocean's surface, where the water is almost inky.
The transparent-headed fish spends much of its time motionless, eyes upward.
The green cap atop each of the fish's eyes filters out what little sunlight makes it down from the surface,
allowing the fish to focus on the bioluminescence of small jellies or other prey passing overhead.
Then the eyes rotate forward to follow the prey, allowing the fish to home in on its meal.

26 Lewensfeite
26 LEWENSFEITE VIR VROUE - MARETHA MAARTENS:
1. Die ego van 'n trouman is so dun soos 'n membraan. Bly
weg van 'n man met 'n ego wat nog dunner is. Telkens wanneer die
pieperige ego'tjie skeur, gaan die eienaar jou verantwoordelik hou vir
lyding en verlies aan lewensgehalte.
2. Moenie oorhaastig verloof raak of trou nie. As dit ewige
liefde is gaan hy nie toelaat dat iemand anders hom binne die volgende
ses maande opraap, ontvoer of blywend betower nie.
3. Vroue wat nie trou nie, het hul redes. Gelukkig vir die
mansgeslag is die vrouens te diskreet om dit aan die hele wereld bekend
te maak.
4. Wanneer aanneemkinders op hulle aanneemouers se harte
trap, is dit nie omdat hulle aanneemkinders is nie, dit is omdat hulle
kinders is.
5. Jou bejaarde ouers se harte is so broos en breekbaar
soos hulle heupe.
6. Jou getroude dogter (en skoondogter!) se skokkende
kaste, vaal kastrolle, harde kussings, kunsveselkomberse, kitcherige
skilderytjies en taai ketel is reg net soos dit is.
7. Soms is dit net een van daardie dinge!
8. Jy hoef nie alles by te woon, te sluk, te onthou, te
ondersteun, te besit, te weet of alleen te hanteer nie.
9. Jou gewig is reg solank jou regterbobeen nie jou
linkerbobeen rou skaaf nie.
10. Wat jy nou beleef, gaan ook verby.
11. Die geveg teen oud word is interessant, maar in
aanvaarding lê 'n skat van vrede opgesluit.
12. Wanneer ons ophou om mooi aan te trek en net in
sweetpakke en oorgroot T-hemde rondloop, jok ons wanneer ons sê: "Ek
voel gemaklik so." Wat ons eintlik sê is "Ek voel ongemaklik oor
myself."
13. God gee om.
14. Die ouer wat 'n obsessie ontwikkel oor een talent in
haar kind se lewe, kom selde agter hoeveel potensiële vriende haar kind
verloor.
15. 95% van kinders op wie daar druk van hierdie aard
geplaas word, gooi daardie talent na skool weg en vind terselftertyd dat
hulle die kuns om hulself deel van 'n groep te maak, nie op 20 eers kan
aanleer nie.
16. Egskeiding is nie 'n onvergeetlike sonde nie, maar dis
'n haaiaanvaal op kinders.
17. Seks is veronderstel om lekker te wees.
18. Die saad van die allerverskriklikste sondes lê onder
die sand van elkeen van ons begrawe. Dit wag net vir die regte
omstandighede om te ontkiem.
19. Was daar nie onverdiende genade nie, was dit ek.
20. Maak meer en meer sagte plekke in jou hart vir meer en
meer mense.
21 Kinders het hulle ouers se ore nodig.
22. Wees veral versigtig wat in jou hart omgaan, want dit
bepaal jou lewe.
23. Die lewe is hard. Mans soek sagtheid.
24. 'n Vrou moet nie te toegeeflik, te afhanklik, te
praterig, te stil, te onafhanklik, te agterdogtig, te goedgelowig, of te
haastig wees nie. 'n Vrou het styl wanneer sy
begrypend-menslik-uitreikend-belangstellend-sterk-nie onder 'n kalkoen
uitgebroei nie-goedgesind-onversteurbaar-kalm leef en optree.
25. Om net te wil hê is kinderagtig.
26. As jy 'n kat of hond het, gaan jy ontdek dat hy kan
praat.

Dear God
Dear God,
So far today, I've done all right.
I haven't gossiped.
I haven't lost my temper.
I haven't lied or cheated.
I haven't been greedy, grumpy, nasty, selfish or overindulgent.
I'm very thankful for that.
But in a few minutes, Lord,
I'm going to get out of bed;
and from then on,
I'm probably going to need a lot more help.
Amen.

I've never told you
I've never told you
Just how much I really need you,
Your every touch and warmth and sigh,
So beautiful and meaningful,
You are the most wonderful person in the world
So, come close to me
Don't be afraid of me,
Just hold me closely
I want to feel your heartbeat,
Within my soul,
As I will breathe every single one of your breath,
And take you...
To the stars and the moon above,
With a dazzling beauty,
Dancing within your love,
As my heart and soul,
Burns fervent with love for you,
I feel alive and blessed,
To have you....
Now next to me,
Deep within my being,
You are my life my destiny,
My dream come true,
I love you!

Austrial Bush Fires (different pics)
Bushfires in Victoria, Australia
A fire truck moves away from out of control flames from a bushfire in the Bunyip Sate Forest
near the township of Tonimbuk, 125 kilometers (78 miles) west of Melbourne.
Walls of flame roared across southeastern Australia, razing scores of homes, forests and farmland in the sunburned country's worst wildfire disaster in a quarter century.
The state of Victoria in southern Australia has recently been hit with hundreds of bush fires during a record-breaking heatwave - temperatures well above 38°C (100°F).
Unfortunately, these fires have proved to be the deadliest in Australian history.
The fires mostly appear to have been started by lightning - however a few appear to have been arson, and are under investigation - entire towns being declared crime scenes.
Flames and smoke rise from a bushfire in the Bunyip Sate Forest west of Melbourne.
More than 40 blazes raged across two states as a once-in-a-century heatwave pushed the mercury as high as
46 degrees Celsius (115 Fahrenheit) with fire bans in place across much of the south-east.
Small acreage is burned out in Kinglake, northeast of Melbourne, Australia.

The beginning of forever
Beginning of forever
I'll still always remember
The last time we were together
Wanting to discover
From the beginning of forever
You were the only thing,
I had to live for.
Everything was so perfect,
But that was before.
I always thought,
We would always be together.
I would love you,
From now till forever.
But I know that would be in the end
And we will be apart
So many kisses I can't send
After what you did to my heart
Behind this smiley mask
I saw the ugly truth
A question in my mind I've ask...
Why I loved you?
What should I do, to make you love me?
What should I say, to make you believe me?
It's only you, who I want to see?
Every day of my single day, to set me free
I lost my way, my thought
And my heart was withered
In a game I played
Pretending I'm the winner
Running from the truth
was the easy thing to do
I wish you had the courage to be honest
to gently tell me, we were through
So, please return to the past
Return to your love
I said, "I love you," at last
Wishing you would understand
That's true
I'm still needing you
But you must know
That I'll never let you go...

2400 Year old mushroom
Until August of 2000 it was thought that the largest living organism was a fungus of the same species
(Armillaria ostoyae) that covered 1,500 acres (600 hectares) found living in the state of Washington.
Spreading and killing trees.
This most recent find was estimated to cover over 2,200 acres (890 hectares) and be at least 2,400 years old, possibly older.
To go into the forest where this giant makes its home you would not look at it and see a huge,
looming mushroom. Armillaria grows and spreads primarily underground and the sheer bulk
of this organism lies in the earth, out of sight.
Occasionally, during the fall season, this specimen will send up golden-colored "honey mushrooms"
that are the visible evidence of its hulking mass beneath.
Scientists have not yet begun to attempt to estimate the weight of this specimen of Armillaria.
How is it possible for a single fungus to get so big?
Scientists who study this species of funges have postulated that the huge size may be a function of the dry climate in eastern Oregon. Spores
The fungus, also known as the honey mushroom, spreads below ground by sending out these stringy rhizomorphs.
have a hard time establishing new organisms, making room for the old-timers to spread.
Without competition from other specimens this enormous Armillaria has been able to grow and spread unchecked.
Thank you Rina for this info.

Sharks in the fresh water of Nicaragua
The largest lake of Central America, in southwest Nicaragua.
The freshwater lake contains fish, such as tuna and sharks,
usually found only in salt water because it was part of the Caribbean Sea
until land masses rose around it in prehistoric times.
Lake Nicaragua, 3,089 sq mi (8,001 sq km), c.100 mi (160 km) long
and up to 45 mi (72 km) wide.
It is drained into the Caribbean Sea by the San Juan River.
Sharks that lives in Lake Nicaragua is a species of shark that has been adapting for a
long time in the lake since it's being seperated from the sea millions of years ago.
How Sharks Survive in Fresh Water
For most shark species, spending a day in fresh water would be like
placing a human on the moon without a spacesuit.
It could not survive due to the inhospitable surrounding environment.
A process called osmosis is central to the problem.
Osmosis is when a fluid moves through a semi-permeable membrane from a solution
with a low solute concentration to a solution with a higher solute concentration,
until there is an equal concentration of liquid on both sides of the membrane.
The dissolved substances, in this case, primarily involve sodium and chloride.
Since sharks evolved in salt water, they tend to have very salty bodies.
Even sharks in fresh water contain more than twice the amount of salt and chloride
as more common freshwater fishes.
In theory, they should burst like an overfilled water balloon, given the osmosis effect,
but they have come up with an effective answer to the problem -- they urinate a lot.
Thomas Thorson studied bull sharks living in Lake Nicaragua and found these huge fish
take in a lot of extra water, as expected, but they excrete much of it as dilute urine,
at a rate of over 20 times that of typical saltwater sharks.
That means their kidneys must work extra hard, utilizing additional energy.
Like people who become accustomed to life in low oxygen regions, however,
sharks in fresh water appear to adapt to what would seem to be formidable conditions.
