With more than 100 sailors reportedly infected, the commander of the USS Theodore Roosevelt aircraft carrier says the shipboard outbreak will keep spreading unless his 4,000+ crew is quarantined.
log: A record of a ship's speed, its progress, and any shipboard events of navigational importance.
It has been two decades since C.Y. Tung's death. Much has been written about his legendary life: the shipping magnate who owned 150 ships totalling more than 11 million tons, his role and advocacy for shipboard education, the purchase of the largest passenger ship Queen Elizabeth to turn it into the Seawise University in 1971, and the building of the world's largest ship in the world, the 564,763-ton Seawise Giant, in 1979.
董 浩雲逝世至今逾二十年,其人事業依然為人稱道。這名航運大亨旗下輪船多達150艘,總重量超過1,100萬噸,其中 1979年建成重達57萬噸的「海 上巨人」,為至今全球最大輪船,引為一時美談;他亦不忘扶掖後學,1971年斥資購入當時世上最大客輪「伊利莎白皇后」號,改建為「海上學府」,真正「把 世界作當作他的戰場、他的課室、他的領域」。
The legendary campaigns and brands of advertising's modern history
The history of western advertising is a long one, starting as early as the 1630s, when Frenchman Théophraste Renaudot placed the first advertising notes in La Gazette de France, or in 1786, when William Tayler began to offer his services as "Agent to the Country’s Printers, Booksellers, etc.," but the first time that the term "advertising agency" was used dates back to 1842, when Volney B. Palmer created his agency in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Widely considered to represent the birth of modern advertising, this date marks the beginning of a creative industry that has transformed many commercial works into cultural icons.
