Series of emergency calls to cruise ship
THREE patients were taken to hospital after a series of calls to a cruise ship that had just docked in Harwich. And shortly after those, the ambulance service received yet another call to the harbour area after a workman suffered a fall. However, unlike a few weeks ago, none of the patients taken to hospital from the cruise ship were suffering from the winter vomiting bug.

Cruise Ship Wake, incident Ryndam
What is your basic thought when you see a cruise ship coming, do you think what a nice bonus it going to be for our community, what a picturesque site, the people on board are enjoying our forested islands, or do you have a more realistic thought when you are a property owner in Ward Cove with a floating facility. Your thought should be when you see one of the ships traveling eastbound, to quickly gather everything from your floating docks and make sure you do not have a skiff or airplane in the water tied to your facility.

Forget Chicago. Set "ER” here.
Its bucolic surroundings belie the stressful life in this little hospital, as the author discovered one memorable day. I remember the warning from med school: At some point, a single day would test our abilities and make us question whether we really wanted to be doctors. For me, that "day from hell" was March 20, 1995. If I'd had time to keep a diary, it would have read like this: 7:30 a.m. The day begins routinely at our 35-bed hospital. I do rounds, induce labor, and prepare to perform a stress test. I plan to head to the clinic by
"A good marketplace … a good railroad.”
"We don't do big flashy things, either in the marketplace or on the operational side," says Jim Hagen, chairman and chief executive officer of Conrail. Instead, Conrail focuses on "doing things in a very professional way," which Hagen likens to consistently hitting singles and doubles rather than home runs. This is the approach that the railroad has taken in what is an extremely competitive marketplace. It's one that is paying off. In the concluding installation of "The Competitors" series, Jim Hagen explains to Railway Age Editor Luther S. Miller and Managing Editor William C. Vantuono Conrail's strategy for getting the
Injury total on tilted cruise ship up sharply
The number of people reported to have been injured in an accident aboard the Crown Princess more than doubled Wednesday, underscoring the severity of what could be described as the latest in a series of mishaps for the cruise-ship industry. Federal investigators said they intend to find out why the Crown Princess tilted so sharply Tuesday afternoon as it sailed in calm seas about 11 miles off the Florida coast near Port Canaveral. The Bermuda-registered ship was on automatic pilot when it leaned 15 degrees to its left side, then righted itself 30 seconds later, the U.S. Coast Guard said.

The only amendment to defamation laws is the increase in jail term for making false accusations, says Prime Minister Chaudhry Shujaat Husain. He was talking to journalists here after inaugurating a private television channel at a local hotel. Chaudhry Shujaat expressed willingness to repeal that amendment, too, if the media people so suggested and said that there would be no change in the press-related clauses of the defamation laws. Many people are criticizing it without even going through it. The prime minister said that the proposed amendment to defamation laws was meant only to prevent false accusations and mud-slinging. According to him, a code of conduct was needed to ensure that nothing against the national interest was aired or printed. On the issue of sending troops to Iraq, Chaudhry Shujaat said that neither he nor Gen Pervez Musharraf had ever thought of taking any unpopular decision on the issue. About Saudi Arabia's proposal for establishing a Muslim force for Iraq, he said it was being discussed in many Muslim states but no concrete outcome had so far been achieved. Moreover, he said, problems being faced by the Iraqis would have to be kept in mind before taking such a decision. Commenting on terrorist incidents, the prime minister said that the frequency of such incidents had increased but it was not clear as to who was behind it. The prime minister denied reports about any army operation being conducted in Balochistan and declined to link the alleged attack on the Balochistan chief minister with it and said solutions to Wana and Balochistan issues would be found through dialogue. Chaudhry Shujaat said the army operation in Wana was aimed at a specific target. He did not elaborate about the target. He denied reports suggesting that the government had sought cooperation of the opposition in tackling the terrorism problem. Governor Punjab Khalid Maqbool and Federal Information Minister Sheikh Rashid Ahmed were also present on the occasion
