Man Rowing Across Ocean Suddenly Realizes He's Surrounded by Over 1,000 Whales

The matters of the heart are often elusive. What one man once coveted so deeply that even its shadow was unbearable, he abandoned just as swiftly. That man is Russian oligarch Yuri Shefler, the former owner of the 439-foot mammoth Serene superyacht. The $400 million motoryacht, now a floating palace of Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, was commissioned nearly 20 years ago by Italy-based Fincantieri.

A Russian vodka billionaire, who vacated his $400 million superyacht on a moment’s notice when Saudi Crown Prince MBS bought it on the spot, once sued the shipyard that built the vessel because they constructed a similar-looking yacht for another billionaire.

Orcas relentlessly battered a yacht in a “terrifying” two-hour attack Wednesday that didn’t end until the $128,680 vessel sunk to the bottom of the Mediterranean Sea.

Robert Powell, 59, and his crew were just 22 hours into their 10-day trip from Vilamoura, Portugal, to Greece when the pod set its sights on the £100,000 — or $128,680 — sailing boat.

“To me, they were not playing at all, they knew exactly what they were doing. They knew the weak points of the boat, and they knew how to sink it,” Powell, who was meant to be celebrating his birthday aboard the boat,...

The Tragic Death of 'Mod Squad'/'Purple Rain' Actor Clarence Williams III: Three Years Later

Actor Buddy Ebsen, who died at age 95 in 2003, found fame by starring in two of the most popular classic television shows in history: The Beverly Hillbillies (CBS, 1962 to 1971) and Barnaby Jones (CBS, 1973 to 1980). On the Hillbillies, he played former Tennessee country mountain-folk-turned-wealthy Beverly Hills resident Jed Clampett. On Barnaby Jones, he was one of TV's most senior, slyest, health-conscious detectives. Ebsen, however, almost became even more famous for a certain big-screen classic film in which he ultimately did not appear.

More dangerous substances are entering the Denver drug supply, Harm Reduction Action Center warned in a newsletter this week. “The Iron Law of Prohibition posits that as law enforcement becomes more intense, the potency of prohibited substances increases,” HRAC Executive Director Lisa Raville wrote in the newsletter. That is exactly what is happening, she said.

	Every once in a while, you come across a boat that is capable of creating a dominating presence in any port, regardless of whether the vessels beside it are much larger. The AB 120 Wraith, launched last year, is one of them. We had a chance to tour it recently in Palm Beach.The 7 Most Exciting New Superyacht Marinas in the World




	AB builds its boats in Viareggio, the center of Italian yacht-building, so it’s possible that the stiff competition motivated the builder to create something that punches way above its weight. Wraith is 121’1” long and displaces 135 tons. Taken alone,...

Nothing ruins a relaxing day at the beach faster than hearing the word "shark" enter the conversation. However, the reality is that every time you step a toe in the ocean, you're entering the shark's domain, and the possibility of encountering one of them is present. In 2023, the amount of unprovoked attacks saw a slight uptick, with the number of deaths from shark bites doubling compared to 2022, according to The University of Florida's International Shark Attack File (ISAF). "This is within the range of the normal number of bites, though the fatalities are a bit unnerving this year," explained Gavin Naylor, director of the Florida Museum of Natural History's shark research program.
