![]() They made announcements suggesting motion sickness medications and provided it for free to all passengers, however I came prepared as on occasion I get motion sickness out of nowhere. They were very efficient at getting everyone boarded and got us to Victoria on time, even with rough weather. The ride over on Friday from Seattle on the Clipper was 100% booked, not an empty seat to be had. However, there will be much more demand for such services this time, given that there has been significant regional population growth, densification in downtown Vancouver, growth in the workforce and tourism, and improved transit services like the SkyTrain Canada Line, within walking distance of potential downtown ferry terminals.My mom and I just returned last night from a great overnight trip to Victoria. These three services are the latest efforts to launch a high-speed ferry service between Vancouver and Victoria, after a number of failed services over the past three decades. Victoria-based Island Ferry Services was recently selected as the preferred operator of the new route, which would make one-way trips in just 68 minutes. Clipper’s dock location in downtown Vancouver has not been made public.Ī third high-speed passenger service from the mainland to the island, from downtown Vancouver to Nanaimo, could commence in the next two years. Meanwhile, the Clipper service will use its existing Belleville facility in Victoria – just one block west of the Steamship Terminal in the Inner Harbour. V2V Vacations will dock at the CPR Steamship Terminal Building just outside the BC Legislature in Victoria and in Vancouver, at the Harbour Flight Centre at the Vancouver Convention Centre. ![]() We could not be more excited to launch this new operation with our longstanding tourism partners in Victoria, Vancouver and across the Pacific Northwest.” Two other services planned “Halunder Jet is the perfect addition to the Clipper fleet and aligns with our high standards for customer service. “For more than 30 years we have safely and reliably operated ferry services around the Salish Sea, and we know that customer comfort is again paramount for our new Vancouver to Victoria route.” “Clipper has been committed to ensuring that we have the right vessel for this route,” said Clipper CEO Tobias Haack. Prior to service, the Halunder Jet will be renovated to the specifications utilized by Clipper and reflagged for its new operation. This is also slightly shorter than the travel times of BC Ferries’ Tsawwassen-Swartz Bay route when including road travel times between the terminals and city centres. ![]() Forget the drive, you could one day travel by train from Vancouver to Seattle in 1 hourĬlipper spokesperson Scott Meis told Daily Hive the newly acquired vessel will have a travelling speed of up to 36 knots (67 km/hr), although the final operating speed will be determined by Transport Canada.Įach one-way trip will be approximately three hours, making the trip about 30 minutes faster than the alternate and more expensive V2V Vacations service.Downtown Vancouver to Victoria Inner Harbour passenger ferry service begins on May 1.It will seat 324 more passengers than the largest vessel in the existing Clipper fleet and 316 more passengers than V2V Vacations’ luxury ferry service along the same route, which launches on May 1, 2017. With seats for 570 passengers, the vessel’s capacity is significantly largely than other existing or future catamarans operating in the Pacific Northwest. Biggest catamaran operating in Pacific Northwest It uses a motion dampening system to help prevent motion sickness, providing passengers with a more comfortable ride. ![]() The vessel was custom built in 2003 for FRS’ operations between Hamburg and Heligoland in Germany and has operated in rough sea conditions similar to the Strait of Georgia. Unlike another new planned service designed for tourists that was announced two weeks ago, the Clipper’s new route is targeted for a larger market that includes commuters, with more economical pricing.Ĭlipper plans to utilize a 52-metre-long high-speed catamaran vessel named the Halunder Jet from its parent company FRS. ![]() The company that operates the existing Victoria Clipper to Seattle confirmed today it will launch a new high-speed passenger ferry service between downtown Vancouver and Victoria Inner Harbour in spring 2018. A major competing service to the existing ferry routes that connect the Lower Mainland with British Columbia’s capital region will be launched in the spring of 2018. ![]()

![]() ![]() ![]() Ciprofloxacin, one of the strongest antibiotics, attacks bacterial DNA replication while leaving human cellular DNA unaffected.Īntibiotics are highly specific to a certain bacterial function, and are not helpful for treating non-bacterial illnesses. Tetracycline antibiotics bind to bacterial ribosomes that are responsible for protein production and inhibit bacterial protein synthesis. Sulfa antibiotics target a specific enzyme that inhibits bacterial growth. Other antibiotics target different molecules that inhibit bacterial growth while leaving human cells undamaged. Image courtesy of Graevemoore, Wikimedia Commons Human cells do not contain peptidoglycan, so penicillin specifically targets bacterial cells. The cells burst open and are much easier for the immune system to break down, which helps the sick person heal more quickly. ![]() Penicillin works best on gram-positive bacteria by inhibiting peptidoglycan production, making the cells leaky and fragile. Gram-negative bacteria have peptidoglycan between membranes. Gram-positive bacteria have a peptidoglycan layer on the outside of the cell wall. Within bacteria, there are two types of bacterial cell walls. Composition of the cell wall in the archaea is more diverse. The cell walls of most fungi are made from chitin. Algae cell walls can be made of cellulose, xylan, silica, carrageenan or a variety of other materials. The cell walls of algae are highly variable. The cell walls of plants, for example, are made from cellulose. The composition of the cell wall differs depending on the type of organism, so penicillin does not affect other organisms. Nearly every bacterium has a peptidoglycan cell wall. Peptidoglycan molecules form strong links that give the bacterial cell strength as well as preventing leakage from the cytoplasm. Penicillin interferes with the production of a molecule called peptidoglycan. When used as an antibiotic treatment, penicillin operates by a very specific mechanism. Penicillin was first used to treat bacterial infections in 1942 and is derived from the fungus Penicillium sp. Modern physicians frequently prescribe antibiotic medications to help people fight infections. One of the first antibiotics discovered was penicillin. ![]() ![]() ![]() He crumples his papers before he turns them in, plays stupid or coy in class( Tod Munn is in all reading honors classes)while still being top person in class. He may be a bully, but all that he has said about his grades give me the impression that he means to be tough on the outside but he secretly even says that he studys hard to meet his goals to get good grades. ![]() I think that this book is an excellent perceived veiw of a school from a teen bully. So, while SCRAWL is a funny, poignant, sometimes really sad story of a bully it's ultimately the understated story of a bully's redemption-and a story of hope. Through a few secondary characters within Tod's story, you also get to see the transformative powers of love (or something kind of like it) and friendship. In this way, you begin to see the power of a little attention, care and affection. But through his eyes and a few conspicuous notes jotted down in the "margins" of the book, you also get to see the teacher that has forced him to keep up this journal in detention. Certainly, he's the star and anti-star of the show-you see his triumphs as well as his weaknesses, his flaws, and his seriously poor choices. Not only does it not really read like one, it's an actual narrative complete with dialogue that unfolds in a serial way, headlined by the date. And you can't help but hope hope hope that he'll progress and change and become a better person, even though you know his life's not going to miraculously change.īut SCRAWL isn't just a journal. Even though he's telling the story, Tod himself didn't seem to be able to see how his life was changing through the pages of his journal, but the teacher-and the reader-clearly do. Though I cringed at those moments where he would relapse and be an arse, I felt a need to cheer when he would rebound and take a few more baby steps forward. But also, I was starting to really root for him. Seriously funny stuff-I was so taken by the voice. In reading the entries from Tod's journal, I felt this blooming sense of surprise. Because if you understand the why, you might stand a chance at not only protecting the victims of bullying, but maybe also save the bully (and in turn, all potential future victims). In reading the story of this particular bully, a person who is clearly not evil or malicious-merely a survivor (and SCRAWL seems to make a distinction)-you can't help but feel hopeful. It merely says look twice and try to get an idea of why. But SCRAWL doesn't ask us to tolerate the behavior. Certainly, they're bullies and awful and their behavior shouldn't be tolerated. ![]() You see how deprivation, poverty and neglect affect more than just the physicality of a person. SCRAWL is a vivid portrayal of the ways in which environment can affect more than just a person's ability to feed and clothe himself. But it really saddened me, too, because in seeing his sarcasm and his self-deprecation, you also see his unflinching inward look at the ugly reality that is his life. Knocked my slippers off to read him and the way he approached the universe (the writing is quite sharp as well). His voice steals the show and had me turning pages just to see what he would say next. His drip-dry humor was just the sort I usually go for. He's intelligent, clever, and ridiculously funny. Something else happened too: I began to understand Tod.īut Tod isn't your average ham-fisted, blockheaded bully either. But you know, through the course of reading SCRAWL, I did both of those things. So, I didn't want to sympathize with one. It's about-and written in the voice of-a bully. Here's the thing about this book: I sort of didn't want to like it. ![]() |
