Paris’s Orly Airport has ramped up security measures as it prepares to resume commercial flights after a nearly three-month hiatus. Reuters Edward Baran has details.


Passengers can no longer enter the terminals with non-flying companions and wearing masks is required. Alcohol gel dispensers are available across the terminals and floor markings urge social distancing.


Thermal cameras are in place at the arrival area, where passengers with a temperature of 38 degrees or above can benefit from a medical consultation but won’t be forced to go under quarantine.


Tech firm LabScience has a developed a prototype of an ultraviolet-rays decontaminating tunnel which the airport is testing. The tunnel uses a high concentration of ultraviolet light over 4 to 5 seconds to kill micro-organisms on a piece of luggage or a coat before the objects are scanned by X-ray.


Orly, the second biggest airport serving the French capital, was closed to passengers on March 31.


That’s Reuters Edward Baran.

THE OPEN BOAT

A TALE INTENDED TO BE AFTER THE FACT. BEING THE

EXPERIENCE OF FOUR MEN SUNK FROM THE STEAMER

COMMODORE


By Stephen Crane


1897

I

NONE of them knew the color of the sky. Their eyes glanced level, and were fastened upon the waves that swept toward them. These waves were of the hue of slate, save for the tops, which were of foaming white, and all of the men knew the colors of the sea. The horizon narrowed and widened, and dipped and rose, and at all times its edge was jagged with waves that seemed thrust up in points like rocks.


Many a man ought to have a bath-tub larger than the boat which here rode upon the sea. These waves were most wrongfully and barbarously abrupt and tall, and each froth-top was a problem in small boat navigation.
