Fishing Fish
German deep-sea fishermen face harsh conditions while searching for black halibut. Their ships are specifically designed to withstand loads exceeding 1000 metric tons and to navigate through the toughest waters. Accuracy in fish processing is essential, as the catch is delivered directly to the customers. The preparation and challenges of a fishing expedition involve stocking up on supplies for a journey lasting several months. The technical aspects and responsibilities of the crew members are crucial for the success of the mission. The ship undergoes a performance test before setting sail to Norway. The dry dock is flooded to assess the ship's buoyancy and readiness. The vessel is hoisted and readied for the journey to Norway. Maintaining the stove is vital for efficient cooking and meal preparation at sea.

THE GAME OF CHOICE
The credit card sector takes advantage of consumers through modifications in terms, of hikes in interest rates, and accumulation of debt. Consumers rely on credit cards for various transactions, resulting in substantial profits but also causing a trillion-dollar debt. The credit card sector played a role in the financial crisis by promoting the refinancing of homes and the accumulation of more credit card debt. The government must establish stricter regulations to safeguard consumers and rectify the credit card sector. Providian Financial was an innovative company that extended credit to low-income individuals and high-risk borrowers. Providian devised tactics to encourage customers to maintain balances and make minimum payments to boost profits. The credit card sector swiftly adopted Providian's lucrative strategies, leading to widespread exploitation and deception. Intense competition in the sector eliminated annual fees but raised penalty fees to offset the loss. Credit card companies exploit consumers through concealed fees and complex pricing structures.

Albert Einstein - The 20th Century Great Mind
Albert Einstein was born in Ulm, Germany on March 14, 1879, and later relocated to Munich. His father, Hermann, was a gifted mathematician, while his mother, Pauline, hailed from a family of German Jewish merchants. Einstein displayed early aptitude in the fields of science and mathematics. He pursued studies in physics and mathematics at the Swiss Federal Polytechnic School in Zurich, where he delved into research on quantum mechanics and the nature of light. Despite initial challenges in securing a teaching position following his diploma completion in Zurich, Einstein eventually rose to prominence as one of Europe's leading physicists. He later acquired Swiss citizenship and secured a position at the Swiss Patent Office in Bern.

The Oil Rig
In 1988, a tragic explosion occurred on the Piper Alpha oil platform in the North Sea, resulting in 165 fatalities. The platform, which was constructed and operated from 1972 to 1976, produced 250,000 to 300,000 barrels of oil per day. A gas conservation module was installed in the North Sea to meet UK gas conservation requirements, with modules B and C capturing gas for transport to St Fergus in Scotland. During Phase 2 production, Tartan and Claymore pumped gas to Piper Alpha, then to the mcp1 gas compressing platform for further transport. Unfortunately, the failure to follow safety procedures led to the explosion on the Piper Alpha platform. Engineers neglected to properly check safety valve instructions before starting pump A, resulting in gas leaks and subsequent explosions. The shift manager's oversight of safety precautions allowed pump A to start, leading to catastrophic consequences.

The Plastic Problem
Plastic pollution poses a significant threat to our planet, impacting oceans, wildlife, and freshwater ecosystems on a global scale. The South Pacific Garbage Patch, a massive accumulation of marine debris larger than the state of Texas, is just one example of the devastating effects of plastic pollution. This issue is not limited to oceans, as even the Great Lakes and the Mariana Trench are now facing the consequences of plastic waste. The exponential growth in plastic production has led to a surplus of waste, with microplastic pellets from manufacturing facilities finding their way into water bodies through accidental spills. These microplastics degrade over time, breaking down into smaller fragments that persist indefinitely.

How to Sell Fake Disease
Pharmaceutical companies are accused of fabricating diseases to boost sales of their medications. The pharmaceutical industry is under scrutiny for allegedly creating fictitious illnesses to drive up the demand for medication. This practice puts doctors in a difficult position, caught between the interests of patients and the pharmaceutical companies. Metabolic syndrome, which is associated with abdominal obesity and is a precursor to diabetes, hypertension, and high cholesterol, is often used as an example of a condition that is exploited for profit. Experts such as Dr. Boris Hansel and Professor Jean Louis Depp are known for endorsing pharmaceutical drugs like Accomplice and Ribonomat for the treatment of metabolic syndrome.
