cruising at a speed of 8.00 km? Marty is sipping a soda while leaning over the railing of a cruise ship that is cruising at a speed of 8.00 km/h through Alaska's majestic Glacier Bay. One of the ice cubes in Marty's soda falls overboard, and falls 17.0 m to the water below. Marty remains at rest...
The rush for iPhone 5s as soon as they were available was intense, rabid even. So rabid that the delivery dates got pushed back about two weeks within an hour. According to AppleInsider though, if you wound up with the two-weeks-later date, you might not have to wait it out. More »
Suddenly, the ship hits an iceberg and begins to sink.

I have been looking at positions on cruise ships for awhile now and have read all that I could find on them but am hoping to hear from someone who has worked on a ship before. I know that you work long hours with little pay but I would love to hear first hand what life was like for you. I am...
My boyfriend is on a cruise and I've been tracking it all week since he got on. He is on the Carnival Legend and they are suppose to go to Cozumel, Belize, Roatan, and Grand Caymen in that order. I just looked at the tracker (they left cozumel today) and it says their destination is Grand...
Would it be catastrophic? If not, why? Assuming the ship is roughly the same size as Titantic, such as the Queen Mary, for example. And assuming the ship hit it at the same speed, and at the same angle. The Costa Concordia may be my answer, I realize. But I guess my real question is --...
I am looking for a few key space ships from different science-fiction mediums. I have a kit of the original Enterprise already. I am looking for places that have:
Serenity from Firefly and Serenity
Normandy from Mass Effect (Alliance)
Moya from Farscape
Thanks for any help!

Hannibal Gaddafi—son of the assassinated Libyan dictator—built a ship with a 120-ton sea water aquarium inside. Why? To put six sharks inside, including two bull sharks and two whites, the most dangerous in the world. More »
I ordered the new iPad third gen on the 8th of March and I set it to pick up on the 16th of March (when the device is released to the public) at a local Apple store. My question is, it is faster to have it shipped to my house? Which one will get the device in my hands the quickest? Thanks!

Don't they have mechanics on board?
Does the cruise ship have a back up engine? (if such thing exists at all)
If I bought something from an auction in Mexico City, are there any small firms or companies (such as Mail Boxes Etc or FedEx/Kinkos) that can pick up my merchandise, package it and ship it to me here in the States? These are not big, bulky items that require transport but rather small items...
There are animations!

I've seen a lot of photos of that cruise ship that capsized in the Mediterranean. It has taken on a lot of water but it doesn't look like it will completely sink. What are they going to do with it, ultimately? Is it just going to stay there on the reef polluting everything with oil and...
I just got off the Dawn Princess and we had a shot they called the "Blackjack". We remember it having White Sumbuca, Jack Daniels and Blue Curacao but we are all fairly sure they had a fourth drink in there. Do any past Princess Cruisers know what we are talking about? Thankyou :)
I recently ordered a book from Amazon on the last week of December. The tracking status of my package hasn't changed at all since January 2nd, and I have a hunch that it's being shipped to me, literally by boat, not plane this time. How long does it usually take for a boat to touchdown in Hawaii?
