Plimsoll was born on February 10, 1824, in Bristol, England. In 1868, he became a member of the House of Commons in the English Parliament, where he focused on sailor and ship safety. This led to the creation of the Royal Commission on Unseaworthy Ships in 1872, to find evidence and recommend changes. The following year, Plimsoll published [URL='https://archive.org/details/ourseamenanappe00plimgoog/page/n10/mode/2up'][I]Our Seamen[/I][/URL]. [/I][/SIZE][/FONT] [I][FONT=verdana][SIZE=3]Plimsoll pushed for load lines—which show how low a ship can rest in water without risking sinking—to be painted on ships, so it would be less likely they would be overloaded. Load lines had started being used earlier in the nineteenth century. British trade was expanding at the time, which led to a greater number of ships sinking, and to an eye turned to the need for safety. There first was a push to get load lines on ships in the 1830s. By mid-century, many sailors were being charged with desertion and imprisoned for refusing to sail in what they believed were "coffin ships"—dangerous ships unfit to sail.[/SIZE][/FONT][/I] [B][FONT=verdana][COLOR=rgb(243, 121, 52)][SIZE=7]SU News[/SIZE][/COLOR][/FONT] [URL="https://www.syracuse.com/orangefootball/2022/02/syracuse-football-completes-coaching-staff-with-hire-of-new-wide-receivers-coach-michael-johnson-sr.html"]SU football completes coaching staff with hire of wide receivers coach[/URL] (PS; Mink)[/B] [I]Syracuse football has rounded out its on-field coaching staff by formally hiring Michael Johnson Sr. as its new wide receivers coach. The announcement comes two weeks after news of [URL='https://www.syracuse.com/orangefootball/2022/01/syracuse-football-will-hire-michael-johnson-sr-as-its-wide-receivers-coach-report.html']an agreement between the school and Johnson[/URL] was reported by ESPN. Johnson will coach the outside wide receivers. “I’m excited to be here,” Johnson said in a statement. “I can’t wait to get to work with the staff and help our team compete for championships.” Johnson’s hire completes the staff overhaul this offseason on the heels of a 5-7 record last fall. The Orange replaced four assistant coaches, including three on offense. New offensive coordinator Robert Anae will coach the inside receivers and the tight ends, the position groups previously coached by Reno Ferri. Johnson, a Los Angeles native who turns 55 in May, has coached in the NFL and at multiple Power-Five schools in the Pac-12 and SEC. He spent last season at Florida Atlantic as a co-offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach and was set to coach tight ends this year for the Owls. Prior to his time at FAU, Johnson spent the 2019 season at Mississippi State when Garrett Shrader quarterbacked the team. ...[/I] [B][URL="https://247sports.com/college/syracuse/Article/Syracuse-football-Robert-Anae-offensive-coordinator-Michael-Johnson-tight-ends-wide-receivers-182586395/"]Michael Johnson announced as Syracuse WR coach; new OC Robert Anae adds positional responsibilities[/URL] (247sports.com; Bailey)[/B] [I] Syracuse football has officially hired [B][URL='https://247sports.com/Coach/Michael-Johnson-3940']Michael Johnson[/URL][/B] to mentor the team's outside receivers, SU Athletics announced on Wednesday.

Marrone served as the Saints’ offensive coordinator and offensive line coach under Payton from 2006-08 before returning to Syracuse to coach his alma mater from 2009-12. Marrone went 25-25 in four seasons, with two Pinstripe Bowl victories. Marrone, 57, has spent much of the past decade in the NFL after leaving Syracuse in 2013 to coach the Buffalo Bills.

After making headlines with his stance on not expanding the College Football Playoff, Phillips is working on positioning the ACC to do away with divisions, an idea the Big Ten is reportedly floating and something the Big 12 has been doing for years. According to a report from ESPN, that is the main talking point at this week's ACC Winter Meetings in Ft. Lauderdale, Fla., and it's close to becoming a reality. Phillips told [URL='https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/33244537/what-jim-phillips-done-unify-acc-football-ahead-offseason-full-potential-change']ESPN earlier this year that the league [/URL]will ask the NCAA for the waiver to have a conference title game without divisions at some point, and there seems to be support for a new format. The idea behind this is to better position the ACC for an uncertain future. It's very likely that there will one day be playoff expansion, but nobody knows anymore what that will look like in terms of the number of teams and what the qualifiers will be. Having more control of scheduling could greatly benefit the ACC down the road. Especially when you think of the league's greatest obstacle: television revenue. The ACC ranks fourth behind the Big Ten, SEC and Pac-12 in that category, falling more than $200 million per year behind those first two leagues.

Let’s get this out of the way — right away. Somehow [URL='https://www.cardiachill.com/']Pittsburgh Panthers[/URL] head coach Pat Narduzzi kept Notre Dame out of his mouth. A miracle — right? Maybe, but I’ll get to that in just a moment. The most interesting part of the article for Notre Dame fans is this little excerpt: [/I] [I]Basically... new ACC Commissioner Jim Phillips has given a bigger voice to the coaches in the conference, and they were very uneasy with moving forward with a 12 team expansion of the college football playoff. They have bigger issues to take care of according to Narduzzi: [/I] [I]So what are the issues? For as many details as they say Jack left out of his “swindle” presentation, they defended their position with just as many details. For a conference that hasn’t had another team come close to dethroning Clemson as a playoff contender, the general thinking would be that they should want an expansion. Perhaps their issues are totally legit and give them great cause to be the roadblock, and I think most people could respect that position — so spell it out. While Phillips has given the coaches a bigger voice as opposed to this being just a president and athletic director conversation, it’s more of what we have come to expect from them... complain about things not being right and then point a finger at Notre Dame. The Irish have already proven that they can make the CFB Playoff under the current format, while the ACC hasn’t put in a non-Clemson school since the 2014 season.

Syracuse will host women’s lacrosse games on Friday and Sunday and a men’s lacrosse game on Saturday. While a mask requirement has been in place for fans during the football and basketball seasons, enforcement of that requirement has been mixed. Fans are permitted to take their masks off while eating and drinking, making enforcement challenging for ushers, who have tried to coax fans into compliance with paddles encouraging them to put their masks on. “We are still reviewing the state and county guidance to understand any additional effects the end of the statewide mask mandate will have on our community, including as it relates to masking at the stadium,” Syracuse Vice Chancellor for Strategic Initiatives and Innovation Michael Haynie said in an email to Syracuse campus. “We will continue to update our community on any new developments, particularly as it relates to any forthcoming decision to alter our masking framework level.” On Wednesday the state announced it was lifting its mask mandate for businesses due to declining Covid numbers but said masks will still be required in some places, including schools, child care centers, adult care facilities, nursing homes, health care settings, homeless shelters and on public transportation. Masks have been required indoors at businesses in the state since December. Businesses could forgo the mask rule if they required proof of vaccination from all customers and employees. Syracuse has required either a proof of vaccination or a recent negative test for entry in the Carrier Dome, prompting the mask requirement. The campus also has different sets of guidelines depending on the school’s designated “Covid level,” which is connected with the amount of Covid detected in the school’s testing. ...[/I] [/QUOTE]
