☆ At Titanic Site, the Grim Job Now Is Assessing the Submersible’s Debris
  + stars: | 2023-06-23 | by ( Jacey Fortin | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
The Titan’s fate was not known until Thursday morning in part because it took days to transport remote-operated vehicles that could reach the depth of the Titanic to the site more than two miles below the ocean surface. Experts said the remote vehicles will probably be used to continue surveying the site and to retrieve some items. But parts of the stricken submersible will probably be left on the ocean floor indefinitely, they said. They would not be able to collect everything on the ocean floor, she said, but they could bring back some materials that would be useful in investigations. “They will have to search for Titan debris amid the Titanic debris on the bottom,” he added.

☆ Stony Brook University to Receive $500 Million, an Uncommonly Large Gift
  + stars: | 2023-06-01 | by ( Liam Stack | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
Stony Brook University, a public school on Long Island, received a donation of $500 million on Thursday from a foundation formed by an alumnus and a former faculty member, making it the recipient of one of the largest gifts to a university in American history. The school said it hopes the gift will spur other donations that could amount to hundreds of millions of dollars. Gifts of that size are rare for universities, and especially so for public institutions like Stony Brook, which is one of the flagship schools of the State University of New York. The donation plus the state matching funds amount to nearly twice the amount of Stony Brook’s current endowment of $370 million, the university president, Maurie McInnis, said in an interview. The donation was made by the Simons Foundation, which was formed in 1994 by Jim Simons, a former Stony Brook math professor who later made billions as a hedge fund manager, and his wife Marilyn Simons, who received her bachelor’s degree and doctorate at Stony Brook.

☆ China doesn't really care who wins the war in Ukraine — it just wants to win the peace, analysts say

There's little doubt that China wants the war between Russia and Ukraine to end, and soon. Political analysts and China watchers note that, ultimately, Beijing doesn't really care who "wins" the war — or what form a peace deal takes. Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskyy speaks with Chinese President Xi Jinping via phone line, in Kyiv on April 26, 2023. Russian President Vladimir Putin and China's President Xi Jinping shake hands during a signing ceremony following their talks at the Kremlin in Moscow on March 21, 2023. Any peace will be hard-wonNo-one is underestimating the challenges any would-be peace broker has before them.

☆ Fact Check-‘I freed a thousand slaves’ quote falsely attributed to Harriet Tubman
  + stars: | 2023-03-21 | by ( Reuters Fact Check | ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +3 min
A quotation attributed to Harriet Tubman about having “freed a thousand slaves” resurfaced on social media around the anniversary of the abolitionist icon’s death, but experts told Reuters there is no record of Tubman ever saying it. The quotation, “I freed a thousand slaves; I could have freed a thousand more if only they knew they were slaves,” has been shared on Twitter (here) and Facebook (bit.ly/3yCgfdh), (bit.ly/3Fpgyfh) following the 110th anniversary of Tubman’s death on March 10, 1913. “She wouldn’t have to convince anyone.”According to Kate Clifford Larson, who has written two books about Tubman (www.katecliffordlarson.com/), the fabricated quote started circulating in the late 20th and early 21st centuries. Clifford Larson also noted that Tubman did not free a thousand slaves. There is no evidence that Harriet Tubman ever said she freed a thousand slaves and would have freed a thousand more if only they knew they were slaves.

I am deeply aware of the fact that my view of the natural world is colored by my home place. But I don’t think that’s the same as romanticizing nature. Of course the natural world is full of forces that are so-called destructive. The story that we have to illuminate is that we don’t have to be complicit with destruction.

☆ Get ready for a gig-worker boom that could make it harder for contractors to earn a living
  + stars: | 2023-01-22 | by ( Jacob Zinkula | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +5 min
Current gig workers could end up worse off because of the added competition. Many US gig workers are already struggling to earn a steady income. He says it's been very difficult for him to get ahead financially since he began gig work in 2019. If more competition does come, gig workers will have to decide whether the income justifies the hours they're putting in. Some full-time gig workers, who research has found account for roughly 3% of US adults and between 30 and 60% of overall gig workers, are making over six figures.

☆ Sutherland Springs shooting survivors say DOJ appeal damages gun safety laws

The disharmony between the Justice Department’s case and the Biden administration’s gun safety efforts as well as the fears and pressure that a lost appeal could damage gun safety laws are at the crux of the survivors' acrimony. Why are you doing all this (gun reform) and yet you’re fighting it over here?’” said Juan “Gunny” Macias, a survivor who was shot numerous times in the attack and viewed the president’s gun safety priorities as dissonant with the potential Justice Department appeal. The Justice Department has received two extensions to file its appeal brief, now due next week, and is unlikely to receive another one. “I assume the Justice Department is taking this position because the lawyers are looking for the best legal avenues that will give them the outcome they want,” he said. That’s what creates problems like the ones we’re facing.”For fear of what an appeal could mean for U.S. gun laws, a coalition of 37 gun safety organizations sent a letter to Attorney General Merrick Garland in October about the Justice Department’s intention to appeal.
☆ College students could start using their dining dollars for DoorDash meals thanks to this startup
  + stars: | 2023-01-02 | by ( Alex Bitter | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +5 min
Phood allows students to order DoorDash using their university dining dollars. The startup works with university campuses to let students spend their dining dollars on off-campus food purchases such as delivery through DoorDash, founder Alex Parmley told Insider. Parmley said that he sees opportunities to open up college students' dining dollars to lots of off-campus services and retailers. At first, the New York-based startup provided food delivery itself, using a team of couriers to send dining-hall food to students' dorm rooms and apartments. The company now connects students' dining accounts to the Discover Global Network, which allows them to use their dining dollars like a regular debit card outside of their university.
