Benfold remains at sea under her own power.


The Japanese commercial tug is being towed by another vessel to a port in Yokosuka.

The incident, which occurred in Japan's Sagami Bay, marks the fifth time the U.S. Navy's 7th Fleet in the Pacific has been involved in a crash.


Seventeen sailors have been killed this year in two collisions with commercial vessels involving guided-missile destroyers, the Fitzgerald in June off Japan and then the John S. McCain in August as it approached a port in Singapore.


On Jan. 31, the USS Antietam ran aground off the coast of Japan, damaging its propellers and spilling oil into the water.


The Navy Times reported that the guided-missile destroyer grounded spilled an estimated 1,100 gallons of oil into Tokyo Bay.


No one was injured in the incident.


The USS Lake Champlain crashed into South Korean fishing boat on May 9 during a routine training exercise.


The ship, also a guided-missile cruiser, crashed into the 9.8-ton fishing boatwhile in the Sea of Japan.


No one was reported injured in the incident.

It's The Explorers again.

I didn't read the story, the landlady should have given him a quit notice instead of throwing out his property. Now I see the man winning the case when they go to court.

I hope the USA can tolerate if its their territory that another country boats will be colliding with theirs.

January 2012 I survived the accident on the Coasta Concordia of the coast of Italy.

That was when I experienced first hand, how it felt like to have been on the ill fated titanic.

I lost a very good friend back then. A young lad, just fresh from Law school at Leads University.

Hit like to pray for her soul
so sorry dear, may her soul rest in peace

When we warned them about the wonders of Mehran Keshe's “Magrav Technology” the Amerikan bastards & their fanboys on NL thought we were kidding. grin

President Obama’s signing of his Executive Order against the “magrav technology”, was due to the Iranian’s using it to down, and then capture one of Amerika's overrated most secretive & sophisticated drones in December, 2011, and then Iran sharing this new weapon with Russia, China Syria, North Korea & all the enemies of Amerika. Hahahaaaaaaaa! grin

I am just patiently waiting for Amerika to start WW3 so that “We” (Mother Russia & Co.) can butcher her into bits & pieces like roasted goat-meats (asun). grin

For your convenience, here is Mehran Keshe's generous letter to “F-ag Obama” once againgrin

“Your Excellency President Obama,

We offer you a path towards real world peace through the development of this new technology for the whole human race

I invite you to a direct presentation of our technology to you and your cabinet, to be given on neutral ground where the president of Iran could also be present and where no one betrays anyone else, so that we can all understand the fundamental change that is about to be brought to mankind. Then let us talk about genuine world peace.

As I said in my Sunday interview in Los Angeles, let us convert the military factories of the US to provide resources for a US space organization, so that the tools of war become the craft of universal peace.

The aircraft carriers of the US will become nothing but floating bathtubs if our Magrav’s technology is used effectively, and the runways full of F16s and 18s and so on will be nothing but runway museums of iron birds, as these craft will not be able to fly if their electronic systems are once touched by Magrav’s space technology. These crafts and battleships would have to be rewired from A to Z before they could ever operate again.

President Obama, we invite you to understand this change and to let us show you the technology that is bringing it about. Then we invite you to the table of world peace.

Please sign a decree for genuine peace and not a gagging order for science and technology, which your people understand fully what we have developed as they try to protect the pride of your nation.

This is not a question of the pride of one group or country, but pride for all of us in the advancement of the human race to new levels of understanding of the universal order of creation, in which we each have our place.

Your Ambassador and Consul in Belgium have direct access to me from our previous talks and correspondence with them and would pass on any communication.

With kindest regards from a peace-loving man who has developed this powerful technology for the good of mankind.”

Sadly, it has cost the “United Snakes of Amerika” humiliating defeat of more than 5 of her most powerful warships since the banning of “Magrav Technology” since 2012, with the total disablement of the USS Donald Cook, the war game “sinking” of the USS Theodore Roosevelt a few years ago including the floating aircraft carrier disabled off the UK coast and now - all these US destroyers colliding with tugboats like a Toyota Corolla cheesy , to realize the truth of Mehran Keshe’s warning him that “the aircraft carriers of the US will become nothing but floating bathtubs”.

Hahahahahahahaaaaaa! Laughing motherfvckerly grin cheesy grin
