Garmin “Autoland” aka “Safe Return,” has been used for the first time, successfully.

Autoland is an emergency system, where a passenger can hit a big red button if the pilot is in incapacitated, which causes the airplane to make emergency radio calls, navigate to a nearby airport with a long runway and medical facilities, and conduct an instrument approach and landing, followed by a full shutdown when the aircraft comes to a stop on the runway. Large screens and voice announcements keep passengers updated along the way.

The nature of the medical emergency on Saturday, involving a King Air with an unconscious pilot, has not been disclosed.

"In 1958 [Daphne Oram, "visionary pioneer in electronic music"] co-founded the BBC Radiophonic Workshop, a studio set up to create sound effects and electronic scores for radio and TV. On the wall she pinned a passage from Francis Bacon’s 17th-century utopia New Atlantis about imaginary sound-houses where scientists manipulate echoes, invent new instruments and transmit sound “in strange lines and distances”."

I'm in love with The Sea. It's a bit strange, as I'm from Madrid; it's a dry and stubborn land as far from the sea as can be. Or, who knows, maybe that's the reason of my love, the love of the dispossesed, the love of the forsaken, the love of the abandoned; a loved one, a desired one, as far as can be. I wish I was by the shore, my sight lost in the flat horizon, my feet cold and wet, the engine of the sea drumming and roaring. I'm far away, but I'm reading Oceano mare by Alessandro Baricco and I see that we share The Sea as a lover, and reading his words (an art of words I will never be able to craft) I feel a bit better, a bit closer.

Those of you near The Sea, you'll know that I envy you. Please, give my regards to the one I love, I will be there, who knows when.

The director of the non-profit Civil Society Legislative Advocacy Centre (CISLAC) has dismissed Trump’s narrative that a strike was necessary to prevent a “slaughter” of Christians in Nigeria.

“Muslims are being killed and harassed every day by the same criminals,” Auwal Musa Rafsanjani was quoted as saying by the local Leadership news outlet. “This conversation should be about human life, not religion or geography.”
