Image UK shipping forecast zones.png 250px thumb UK Shipping map Sailing By is a short piece of light music composer composed by Ronald Binge in 1963, which is used before the late Shipping Forecast on BBC Radio 4 . A slow waltz , the piece uses a repetitive ABABC structure and features a distinctive rising and falling woodwind arpeggio. Context and usage Sailing By is played every night on BBC Radio 4 at around 00 45hrs before the late Shipping Forecast . Its tune is repetitive, assisting in its role of serving as a signal for sailor s tuning in to be able to easily identify the radio station. It also functions as a buffer depending on when the final programme before closedown finishes, Sailing By or part of it is played as a filler as the shipping forecast starts at 00 48hrs precisely. The initial reason for its introduction was because of the indeterminate finish time for the preceding Midnight News, leading to filling music being played until the Shipping Forecast was due to start. Sailing By was added to allow for a clear break between the end of the music and the start of the forecast. In the 1990s the tune was also adopted for the weekly maritime programme Seascapes on Ireland s RT Radio 1 . Popularity Besides its intended function, Sailing By is thought of affectionately by many British radio listeners as it is considered a soothing accompaniment to bedtime. The lead singer of the Britpop band Pulp band Pulp , Jarvis Cocker chose Sailing By as one of his Desert Island Discs , saying for many years he had used it as an aid to restful sleep . ref http www.bbc.co.uk pressoffice pressreleases stories 2005 04 april 23 jarvis.shtml Jarvis Cocker on BBC Desert Island Discs ref ref http www.bbc.co.uk radio4 factual desertislanddiscs 20050424.shtml Jarvis Cocker s final ... by BBC listeners when Sailing By was temporarily taken off the air on weekday schedules, leading to it being ...

The central aim of tort law is not the absolute minimization of losses from individual accidents because the total accident cost of any economically fruitful activity industry includes both the expected cost of the accidents that happen to occur and the actual costs expended in avoiding the accidents. For expenditures to prevent accidents, there must be associated levels of expected accidents and expected losses. Unfortunately, there is a serious underregistration of the most common accidents that have only a small cost per accident but may be important in the total cost of accidents. Only few studies have accurately quantified the entire cost of accidents. ref cite journal author Joris Aertsens, Bas de Geus, Gr gory Vandenbulcke, Bart Degraeuwe, Steven Broekx, Leo De Nocker, Inge Liekens, Inge Mayeres, Romain Meeusen, Isabelle Thomas, Rudi Torfs, Hanny Willems, Luc Int Panis year 2010 title Commuting by bike in Belgium, the costs of minor accidents. journal Accident Analysis and Prevention volume 42 pages 2149 2157 doi 10.1016 j.aap.2010.07.008 pmid 20728675 ... in addition to the losses accrued from the accidents that were not prevented.

High speed rail is one of the safest modes of transportation.

Today TGV trains accumulate of the order of 50 billion passenger kilometer kilometre s per year on LGV lignes grande vitesse high speed lines alone. 1.2 billion passengers have travelled on the TGV. TGV operations fall into two categories operations on dedicated, TGV only high speed lines LGVs , and operation in mixed traffic on lignes classiques , conventional lines. Indeed, of the total track length served by TGV trains only about 25 by route kilometre is high speed. In understanding the incident summaries below, it is important to bear this distinction in mind. Most of the serious incidents have occurred on conventional lines, where TGV trains are exposed to the same external risks as any other train. High speed operation has never been a factor in any fatal incident in the history of the TGV. Following the number of accidents at level crossing s, an effort has been made to remove all level crossings on lignes classiques used by TGVs. The ligne classique from Tours to Bordeaux at the end of the LGV Atlantique has no level crossings as a result. Incident summaries The summaries below are not comprehensive.
