Since its debut in 2002, Omegas Seamaster Aqua Terra collection has epitomized the Platonic ideal of a casual sports watch: Legible, stylish and robust, the model is tough enough to take a knocking without sacrificing its suave good looks.
The Aqua Terras enduring popularity helps explain why Omega continues to revisit the lineas with the two newest versions to emerge from the collection featuring sun-brushed dials with a horizontal teak pattern in blue and green inspired by the wooden decks of luxury sailboats.

The blue dial version comes in a 38 mm stainless steel case, while the green dial version comes in a 41 mm stainless steel case. Beyond these surface details, however, the models are identical.

They each have a date window at 6 oclock and rhodium-plated hands and indexes filled with white Super-LumiNova. Beneath their domed scratchresistant sapphire crystal lies Calibre 8900, Omegas self-winding movement with Co-Axial escapement, a Master Chronometer, certified by the Swiss Federal Institute of Metrology (METAS) and resistant to magnetic fields reaching 15,000 gauss. Likewise, each model boasts water resistance to 150 meters (500 feet) and 55 hours of power reserve.

The new dial versions are available on a steel bracelet for $5,700 or on a matching colored leather strap for $5,400.
Its been a busy few months for Omega. In December, the brand marked the 25th anniversary of its partnership with the James Bond film series with the debut of the Seamaster Diver 300M 007 Edition, timed to coincide with the release of the trailer for the latest Bond flick, No Time to Die,in theaters next month.

Joo FrancofromBelow Deck Mediterraneanshared that he was ready to live a sober life. He revealed that he quit drinking alcohol after doing a considerable amount of reflecting, he shared on Instagram.
He started a series of three posts over the weekend. His first post focused on how he spent too much time dealing with a hangover. He could have instead been enjoying life with his family.
Ill tell you what A hangover, he remarked along with photos taken with his father. One thats lasted 3 days! Demons Alcohol. Ive decided I hate this feeling! I seriously hate it! I should be the happiest I have ever been and yet I feel insecure, questioning my purpose, or more so, what Im doing with my time that is important and how much of my time on this earth I am spending on unimportant things.
His next post dove deeper into why he needed to stop, citing that signs were everywhere.
Franco began his post revealing that there were times hed wake up covered in blood after a night of drinking. Or getting arrested should have been the wakeup call he needed. We are given signs that we choose to see or ignore. I have certainly been given my fair share of signs, he wrote. They come to me in different ways. Some are a blatant smack in my face, like getting in trouble with the law or waking up with torn clothes, blood and gashes all over my body, some blood stains not my own. Broken knuckles and no idea of how it happened.
Seeing Jezebob emerge on Below Deck Med should have also been a sign, he added. Or watching my actions on a TV show, knowing very well that I would have handled situations very differently if I was sober, he penned.
But also learning that Captain Sandy Yawn was sober should have been a sign too. Some signs more subtle, maybe through other people like@captainsandrayawngiving me light on when and why she made her decision to quit alcohol. The people close to me, telling me that I have so much potential to be great, I just need not f**k it up by going to jail or having a car accident.
Franco says his demons were far more serious. Not just killing me but all those involved too, he admitted. Or worse- I live and others die. I go through waves. I reflect and calm down for a few months and then something gets me on the road to inevitable doom again.
Like some people, he shared that he often was able to get off the hook I SOMEHOW miss a date with the devil and come back to my senses, all to start the process again. I have been told a countless amount of times that I have an endless supply of lives because SOMEBODY just keeps the lives coming! But why??
Franco said he cheated death too many times. I should have died this weekend with my actions, he revealed. I should have died a month ago on my way to Victoria falls when I drove with my best mates in the car. He added, I can count at least 10 times a year that I should have died.
Yawn saw Francos post and told him she was here for him. Joao, after reading this I realized that this has always been your struggle, she responded. I promise you, from experience, if you stay clean and do the next right thing, your life will be beyond your wildest dreams! I love you and Im here for you. Yawn mentored another crew member last season who would get blackout drunk when the crew went out on the town.
Last season she shared that she was a recovering addict. Yawn told Showbiz Cheat Sheet she too could have had a different life if she continued to drink. I was a mess, she said in August. By the grace of God, Im alive. No matter how much money you have, its not going to save your life if you are an addict or an alcoholic. And I was a major addict and alcoholic.
Like Franco, she never hurt or killed anyone. But I could have killed someone. My life would be very different right now. Deckhand and close friend Colin Macy-OToole cheered Franco on too. Proud of you buddy! You got this! , he wrote.

WOBURN As the fourth quarter got under way in Saturday nights MIAA Div. 1 North quarterfinal, the situation was not looking good for the top-seeded Woburn High girls basketball. Eighth-seeded Billerica was outplaying the Tanners and it scored the first basket to take a seven-point lead.
However, no one bothered to stop the game and ask the Woburn players to analyze the situation they were in. The Tanners just kept doing what they do: play fast, defend and give it all they had.
It was still a six-point game, midway through the fourth, when Woburns intense effort led to an incredible, 13-2 run that put the Tanners ahead to stay in a 58-56 triumph over the Indians at a packed Torrice Gym.
What was amazing about it was that Woburn did not rely on any one player to turn things around for them. Instead, it was about five or six players who stood up and made plays on either offense or defense to get the job done and keep the momentum going down the stretch.
The girls never panicked, said Woburn coach Steve Sullivan, whose team is now 21-1 and still has not lost in 2020. They have a lot of faith in each other, they have a lot of belief in each other, and they stayed together. I give them all the credit in the world.
The Tanners could have won it by a few more points but shot 2-for-10 from the free throw line in the last 1:09, stretching the drama out to the final buzzer.
Woburn will next host fourth-seed Cambridge (18-4) in the semifinals, Wednesday night (7 p.m.) back at Torrice Gym.
I cant give enough credit to the girls, they were down seven and they never put their heads down, they never quit, they just dug in, said Sullivan. They are an incredible group and I couldnt be prouder of them. We just need to work on free throws.
The first half featured a battle of the number 21s on both teams. Woburns Megan Roderick started the game by missing her first shot, then stealing it away from the girl who got the rebound, and then putting in her second shot. That started a first quarter that saw her score 11 points, and 16 for the half, including a pair of 3-point buckets.
Billericas Madison Watford was the best player on the floor. She was big and strong, but had a soft shooters touch that allowed her smoothly drain threes, while being automatic underneath the basket. On defense, when Watford wasnt swatting away shots and grabbing rebounds, her mere presence altered many of the Tanner shot attempts in the paint. She had 14 points in the first half.
Woburn led for much of the half, getting the lead up to as high as eight (22-14) in the second quarter before the Indians began settling in and running their offense. It was still a six-point game late in the half when Billerica went on a 7-0 burst, culminating with a Julia Trainor steal and layup that gave the Indians their first lead of the game, 28-27. Two Ashlyn Pacheco free throws gave the Tanners the lead at the half, 29-28.
They (Indians) are very good, said Sullivan, of Billerica They are well-coached, they run nice back cuts, nice screens, they move very well.
The third quarter began with a Meghan Qualey triple off the glass from the right side to get the lead up to four, but Billerica answered with a three from Madison Bonvie and two free throws from guard Taylor Gibson put the Indians back in front, 33-32.
Back and forth it went until Billerica went on another 7-0 run, this one giving the Indians an eight-point lead with 32 seconds left in the third. Watford had a conventional three-point play, Sofia Mazzotta made a shot, and Gibson added two free throws. Pacheco hit three free throws after getting fouled beyond the arc to make it a five-point game (45-40) after three.
We knew all along she could play, said Sullivan, of Watford, who had 19 points. She could shoot the ball, she hit some threes on us early, she was a physical player inside. I thought we did a much better job in the second half on her.
It was 51-45, midway through the fourth, when Woburn began to catch fire. Carley Pandora started it with a layup, Cyndea Labissiere hit two free throws, and Qualey hit a mid-range jumper to tie the game at 51-51.
Down the other end, Qualey took a charge to keep the momentum going forward. Sydney Sartell hit both ends of a one-and-one to briefly put the Indians back in front, 53-51, with 2:09 left, but Roderick (21) responded right back with a three that put the Tanners back in front to stay, 54-53.
Labissiere came up with a steal at mid-court and the foot race to the basket culminated in a 360-spinning reverse layup that was simply awesome.
Gibson, Billericas second-highest scorer, had four fouls on her when she tried to cover Labissiere the next time down the court. The freshman blew by the senior, forcing her to foul out to avoid the easy layup. Pacheco then took a charge on one defensive stand, and then on the next one, wrestled a loose ball away while lying on the ground, and then calling timeout before the tie-up, allowing the Tanners to keep the ball.
All those little plays matter, a lot, said Sullivan. We made just enough of those and they turned out to be big plays, and now we live to play another game.
The missed free throws were keeping the Indians slim hopes alive, and then when Sartell hit a 30-foot trey from straight away, it was a two-point game (58-56) with 10 seconds left. Watford ended the game with a dramatic shot from the Billerica side of mid-court, but the attempt came up just short.
I think the girls just dug down deep, said Sullivan. Things werent going well. We were slowing down and not getting much going offensively. We were just able to dig in, get a few stops and start playing fast. When we play fast we are really, really good.
There was a little controversy brewing, last night, regarding the Tanners being allowed to host a semifinal game it was playing in. We will see if anything develops there.

If you love RNG, then youre going to have a blast with this weeks Hearthstone Tavern Brawl.
For those of you who dont enjoy brawls when the deck building is out of your control, The Burndown may be one to avoid. In the Burndown Rekindled, players will be using a randomly generated deck. After playing a game, the loser will be assigned the winners deck for their next Tavern Brawl match. If you win, youll keep the same deck and will be able to continue to use it until you lose.
Though you still only need to win one match to obtain your free pack for this week, the appeal of this brawl is its replayability. Players can take their randomly assigned deck and play consecutive games to test themselves against the great unknown. Since losers are assigned the winners deck, as the week progresses, the decks you run up against should become more powerful.
Unlike some random deck brawls, The Burndown doesnt even allow you to choose a class. This means youll be flying completely blind whenever you first dive in. If youre assigned a class that youre familiar with, you can have some sense of how to strategize. Even though your deck is random, if you have a ton of experience playing a particular class, youll probably be able to navigate the RNG better than you would otherwise.
You can dive into the Tavern and test your skills in The Burndown Rekindled right now.

Taken in the spring of 1990 in the Persian Gulf, the impressive pictures in this post feature U.S. Air Force (USAF) B-52 Stratofortress strategic bombers buzzing USS Ranger (CV-61) aircraft carrier.
The story went as follows.
Two B-52s called the USS Ranger and asked if they could do a fly-by, and the carrier air controller said yes.
When the B-52s reported they were 9 kilometers out, the carrier controller said he didnt see them. The B-52s told the carrier folks to look down.
B-52 Pilot:Ranger, were 5 miles out.USS Ranger:We do not have visualB-52 Pilot:Look down
According to The Tailhook Association website, the B-52 paint scheme made it hard to see from above, but as it got closer, the sailors could make it out, and the water the B-52 jets were causing to spray out.
As we have already explained (click here to read the article) B-52s usually practiced low level flights during Cold War years to come in under Soviet radar. In this case, the B-52 pilots asked the carrier controller if they would like the bombers come around again. The carrier guys said yes, and a lot more sailors had their cameras out this time.
Although its very rare for a USAF aircraft to do a fly-by below the flight deck of a carrier, its not rare seeing B-52s doing low fly-bys over US Navy flattops.
In the winter of 1981 in fact, two Guam-based B-52 Stratofortress strategic bombers performed a low fly-by over USS Midway (CV-41) aircraft carrier. Here you can read the whole story of the USS Midway low fly-by written by B-52 commander Doug Aitken.
Update: Tim Manley, reader of The Aviation Geek Club, brought to our attention that the main photo used for this article was taken on the USS Independence (CV62) not the USS Ranger. A claim proved by the tail markings on the F-14 from VF-154 and the E-2C from VAW-115 parked on the flight deck. Both squadrons were deployed as part of CAG-5 which is can be identified as NK in the tail of the aircraft that were assigned to CV-62. They were never deployed on the Ranger. Stay tuned for additional updates if further details on this story had to come to light!

Alabama formally announced the hires of David Ballou and Dr. Matt Rhea as the team's new director of sports performance and director of performance science in a release Tuesday morning, March 3, 2020.(Photo: Alabama athletics)
TUSCALOOSA Alabama football officially elevated its player developmentto the next level with Tuesday's announced additions of two hires to replace one.
The Crimson Tide formally named Indiana strength and conditioning duo David Ballou and Dr. Matt Rhea as its newly-createddirector of sports performance and director of performance science, respectively, in a press release Tuesday morning.
"Just as with any other area, we feel that it is imperative that we adopt and integrate advancements in the field of strength and conditioning that will provide elite training, while better protecting our players from injuries and helping them develop and perform at a higher level," Alabama head coach Nick Saban said in a statement. "Our program has been working toward these type of advancements with the development and construction of our own sports science center, and with the addition of David and Matt, we believe our student-athletes will be better equipped to reach their goals for many years to come."
The hires formally fill a hole vacated by longtime Alabama strength and conditioning coach Scott Cochran after he left to become Georgia's special teams coordinator last week following 13 seasons in the support role in Tuscaloosa.
The additions of Ballou and Rhea were made with the program's new sports science center, which is still under construction but should be finished later this summer, in mind, creating new roles to further utilize innovative advancements in strength and conditioning.
IU football director of athletic performance David Ballou speaks with reporters about the Hoosiers' approach to strength and conditioning. Indianapolis Star
"The collaboration between strength and conditioning, sports medicine and nutrition are absolutely critical for the success of our program," Alabama's associate athletic director of sports medicineJeff Allensaid in the release. "The addition of Coach Ballou and Dr. Rhea to our program will allow us to take full advantage of our sports science center. The data they will generate on our athletes, through their unique training methods, will allow us to know exactly how to manage our team to ensure we are performing at our best each Saturday and make sure we are doing all we can to prevent injuries."
Ballou spent the past two years as Indiana's director of athletic performance while Rhea was the Hoosier's high performance coordinator. Both also served two years apiece in similar roles at IMG Academy in Bradenton, Florida, before Ballou accepted a co-director of strength and conditioning at Notre Dame in 2017. Ballou, who played fullback at Indiana between 1997-99,also spent more than a dozen years as the head strength and conditioning coach at Avon (Indiana) High.
"Player development is my passion" Ballou said in the statement. "We can't wait to get to Tuscaloosa and begin working with some of the best athletes and football players in the nation. We will attack all avenues of performance to make sure we are optimizing the physical abilities of every player on the roster."
Rhea has an educational background having served as a professor of kinesiology at A.T. Still University where he taught courses in sports conditioning and exercise physiology and has published nearly 100 studies in performance enhancement. Rhea has a master's degree in exercise science and physical education and a doctorate in philosophyat Arizona State in 2001 and 2004, respectively,and a second master's in sports management from American Public University in 2016.
"For the past 22 years, I have been studying how best to develop athletes, prevent injuries and prime for competition," Rhea said in a statement. "Through research, I have found some innovative ways to target neuromuscular issues that are limiting performance and, by teaming up with one of best strength and conditioning coaches in the world, we can target those limiting factors during training.
"Everyone works hard in football these days, and our system involves a lot of hard work, but not just for the sake of causing pain and suffering. It involves hard work because getting improvements in very elite athletes is very challenging. We are combining hard work with very scientific methods in order to maximize development and preparation."
Alabama's new sports science center will be a comprehensive facility that will feature assessment areas for all athletes, physical-evaluation areas, a behavioral health center, two athlete-recovery rooms that feature 15 specialized recovery chairs, three float beds and a multi-person, whole-body cryo chamber.
"The addition of Coach Ballou and Dr. Rhea shows the unsurpassed dedication to the student-athlete at The University of Alabama," Alabama team doctor andAndrews Sports Medicine Center orthopedic surgeon Dr. Lyle Cain said. "Their ability to develop football players while working in conjunction with athletic training and nutrition to help prevent injuries will be vital to the program's success. With all these factors in place, Alabama will possess a one-of-a-kind program, not only in college, but in the NFL as well, that will focus on protecting its players and helping them reach their full potential."

The transformation of Walt Disney's(NYSE:DIS)least visited theme park in Florida is complete. Wednesday morning's debut of Mickey & Minnie's Runaway Railway, a family-friendly trackless ride that glides guests through high-tech animated scenes, completes the massive upgrade of Disney's Hollywood Studios, the gated attraction that was dead last among Disney World's four theme parks in attendance in 2018.
A lot has happened at the park in a little more than 20 months. Toy Story Land opened in the summer of 2018, a nod to Pixar's first full-length feature franchise. Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge came along last year, an ambitious 14-acre expansion that opened in two phases between August and December. Mickey & Minnie's Runaway Railway becomes the third and final piece of the revitalization of Disney's Hollywood Studios.
Image source: Disney.
There's a lot riding on Disney's theme parks business. Disney's parks, experiences, and products segment accounted for 38% of revenue and 45% of the operating profit in fiscal 2019. And Disney World is the largest theme park resort on the planet, unmatched in terms of the number of parks, on-site hotels, and annual visitors.
Disney's Hollywood Studios attracted 11.3 million guests of the 58.3 million visitors to Disney World's four theme parks in 2018. The least visited of the four Florida theme parks will never catch up to Magic Kingdom and the more than 20 million folks who travel through its turnstiles every year. However, it shouldn't be a surprise to see Disney's Hollywood Studios catapult to becoming Disney World's second most visited park in 2020.
We've seen this play out before.Disney's Animal Kingdom leaped to second place in attendance at Disney World following the 2017 debut of Pandora -- The World of Avatar. If a single expansion was enough to breathe new life into the animal-themed park, just imagine how three major additions in less than two years will do for the once-struggling movie-themed attraction.
The new ride is drawing largely positive reviews, and that's a good thing since the same ride will open at Disneyland in California two years from now. The attraction uses next-gen visual effects to create a textured experience without the need for 3-D specs, drawing guests into the whimsical universe of Mickey Mouse.
This week's debut of the first ride starring Mickey and Minnie Mouse may be bittersweet, though. The opening comes as all three of the Disney-branded resorts in Asia are closed as a result of the novel coronavirus outbreak, and it seems like only a matter of time before the stateside parks take a hit.
Mickey & Minnie's Runaway Railway was supposed to open last year, but Disney pushed its rollout to early 2020 -- probably as a result of spacing out the debut of Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge into two phases months apart in the second half of 2019. The timing is unfortunate, but the real value of the work that Disney World has done with its least popular theme park has always been for the long haul. The family-entertainment giant was a market darling among consumer discretionary stocksbefore the COVID-19 outbreak rattled the market, and that's just where it will be when bullish sentiment bounces back.
