Very hot tea may cause throat cancer
http://www.abc.net.au/science/articles/ ... 527642.htm
27 March 2009
Drinking hot tea may cause throat cancer, say Iranian researchers, suggesting people let their steaming drink cool before consuming them.
Previous studies have linked tobacco and alcohol with cancer of the oesophagus, and the research published in the British Medical Journal suggests that scalding beverages may also pave the way for such tumours.
Drinking very hot tea at a temperature of greater than 70 degrees Celsius was associated with an eight-fold increased risk of throat cancer compared to sipping warm or lukewarm tea at less than 65 degrees, the researchers write.
Professor Reza Malekzadeh of Tehran University of Medical Sciences and colleagues studied the tea-drinking habits of 300 people with oesophageal cancer and another 571 healthy men and women from the same area in Golestan Province in northern Iran.
That region has one of the highest rates of throat cancer in the world, but smoking rates and alcohol consumption are low, say the researchers. Nearly all the volunteers drank black tea regularly, consuming on average more than a litre each day.
People who regularly drank tea less than two minutes after pouring were five times more likely to develop the cancer compared to those who waited four or more minutes, the researchers say.
British studies have reported people prefer their tea at an average temperature of 56 degrees to 60 degrees, they note.
It is not clear how hot tea might cause cancer, but one idea is that repeated thermal injury to the lining of the throat somehow initiates it, say the researchers.
Cancers of the oesophagus kill more than 500,000 people worldwide each year, with the bulk of the disease occurring in discrete populations in Asia, Africa, and South America. The tumours are especially deadly, with five-year survival rates of 12 to 31%.
Earlier this week, US and Japanese researchers reported that about a third of East Asians - Chinese, Japanese and Koreans - have an enzyme deficiency that puts them at higher risk of developing oesophageal cancer when they drink alcohol.
Steaming hot tea linked to cancer
27 March 2009
Drinking steaming hot tea has been linked with an increased risk of oesophageal (food tube) cancer, Iranian scientists have found.
The British Medical Journal study found that drinking black tea at temperatures of 70C or higher increased the risk.
Experts said the finding could explain the increased oesophageal cancer risk in some non-Western populations.
Adding milk, as most tea drinkers in Western countries do, cools the drink enough to eliminate the risk.
The oesophagus is the muscular tube that carries food from the throat to the stomach.
Oesophagus cancers kill more than 500,000 people worldwide each year and oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is the most common type.
Tobacco and alcohol are the main factors linked to the development of oesophageal cancers in Europe and America.
But it has not been clear why other populations around the world have high rates of the disease although there has been a theory that regularly drinking very hot drinks damages the lining of the gullet.
A litre a day
Golestan Province in northern Iran has one of the highest rates of OSCC in the world, but rates of smoking and alcohol consumption are low and women are as likely to have a diagnosis as men. Tea drinking, however, is widespread.
The University of Tehran researchers studied tea drinking habits among 300 people diagnosed with OSCC and compared them with a group of 570 people from the same area.
Nearly all participants drank black tea regularly, on average drinking over a litre a day.
Compared with drinking warm or lukewarm tea (65C or less), drinking hot tea (65-69C) was associated with twice the risk of oesophageal cancer, and drinking very hot tea (70C or more) was associated with an eight-fold increased risk.
The speed with which people drank their tea was also important.
Drinking a cup of tea in under two minutes straight after it was poured was associated with a five-fold higher risk of cancer compared with drinking tea four or more minutes after being poured.
There was no association between the amount of tea consumed and risk of cancer.
Because the researchers had relied on study participants to say how hot their tea was, they then went on to measure the temperature of tea drunk by nearly 50,000 residents of the same area.
This ranged from under 60C to more than 70C, and reported tea drinking temperature and actual temperature was found to be similar.
Tea lovers
Writing in the BMJ, the researchers led by Professor Reza Malekzadeh, said: "Our results showed a noticeable increase in risk of oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma associated with drinking hot tea.
"A large proportion of Golestan inhabitants drink hot tea, so this habit may account for a substantial proportion of the cases of oesophageal cancer in this population."
Previous studies from the UK have reported people prefer their tea to be about 56-60C - cool enough not to be risky.
In a BMJ editorial, David Whiteman from the Queensland Institute of Medical Research in Australia said: "The mechanism through which heat promotes the development of tumours warrants further exploration and might be given renewed impetus on the basis of these findings."
Dr Whiteman advised tea-drinkers to simply wait a few minutes for their brew to cool from "scalding" to "tolerable".
Oliver Childs, a spokesman for Cancer Research UK, said: "Tea drinking is part of many cultures, and these results certainly don't point to tea itself being the problem.
"But they do provide more evidence that a regular habit of eating and drinking very hot foods and drinks could increase your risk of developing cancer of the oesophagus."
He added: "People in this region of northern Iran often drink very hot tea as part of their daily routine. We're a nation of tea lovers in the UK, but we don't tend to drink tea at such high temperatures and we usually add milk, which cools it down."

Re: Very hot tea may cause throat cancer
Good post but in my opinion I think this study is flawed its not like you drink hot tea straight if it was so uncomfortable people would not be able to swallow it, again the tea is sipped so its cools rapidly over the surface area of the mouth.

Re: Very hot tea may cause throat cancer
I heard something similar about yerba mate drinkers getting cancer because they like the infusions to be very hot.
The problem I have with health claims for and against tea is that billions of people have been drinking tea for centuries.
People still get a variety of diseases that tea is supposed to help fight.
Tea drinkers aren't turning up with mouth cancer.

Re: Very hot tea may cause throat cancer
It makes sense that if your tea is hot enough to scald you if it spills on you, it's probably too hot for your innards. And just as repeated sunburns are well known to increase risk of skin cancer, it makes perfect sense that repeated mild thermal burns to the esophagus could increase risk of esophageal cancer. Repeated irritation from stomach acid/heartburn/reflux definitely is associated with increased risk of esophageal cancer. In general, repetitive inflammation in a tissue, resulting in increased cell turnover (growth/division/proliferation), increases the risk of malignancy, because every time a cell divides, the risk of damage to the DNA is increased.
Re: Very hot tea may cause throat cancer
I like to eat tea bags then pour a fully boiled kettle directly down my throat without touching the sides. this keeps the throat protected.

Re: Very hot tea may cause throat cancer
Obviously you read it wrong as mate is brewed with a temp no higher than 180 degrees. Any higher produces a slightly bitter taste.
Plus the traditional way to prepare it is in a Gourd and before adding the hot water you moisten the mate with cool water.

Re: Very hot tea may cause throat cancer
A study by the International Agency for Research on Cancer showed a limited correlation between oral cancer and the drinking of large quantities of hot mate. Smaller quantities (less than 1 liter daily) and warm rather than hot mate consumption were found to increase risk only slightly; alcohol and tobacco consumption had a synergistic effect on increasing oral, throat, and esophageal cancer. The increased risk, rather than stemming from the maté itself, could be credited to the high temperatures in which the mate is consumed in its most traditional way, the 'chimarrão'. The cellular damage caused by thermal stress could lead the esophagus and gastric epithelium to be metaplasic, adapting to the chronic injury. Then, mutations would lead to cellular displasia and to cancer.[33] Given the influence of the temperature of water, as well as the lack of complete adjustment for age, alcohol consumption and smoking, the study concludes that mate is "not classifiable as to its carcinogenicity to humans".[34]
Researchers in Mississippi found that both cold and hot water extractions of yerba mate contained high levels (8.03 to 53.3 ng/g dry leaves) of carcinogenic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) (i.e. Benzo[a]pyrene).[35] However, these potential carcinogenic compounds originate from drying process of the maté leaves, which involves smoke from the burning of wood, rather than from the mate itself.[36]

Changes in iron's strength just before it melts is causing a seismic-wave slowdown in Earth's inner core, according to a study in the journal Science. Using a new computer model, researchers at University College London found that iron's strength wanes, changing the speed of seismic waves passing through the core. "We may soon be in a position to produce a simple model for the inner core that is consistent with seismic and other geophysical measurements," said Lidunka Vocadlo, who co-authored the study.

Convenient hotel to visit Fallingwater
The standard room with double beds is not very large, but the beds were comfortable, and they have microwave and small refrigerator. The rooms are remodeled so everything looks new. We stayed during Christmas break so there was no housekeeping. The breakfast was good. The kids enjoyed the indoor pool and gym. Great location to visit Fallingwater and Ohiophyle State Park. I would stay here again but preferably at a larger room if they have one.

Odeon Cinema
In Florence the longest festival in the world is starting on October 21st: 50 days of international cinema
It can be defined as the festival of festivals, and it pleases all those film buffs who cannot attend prestigious film festivals in their actual venues. France Odeon offers the best of French cinematography (October 21-24), among which Mammuth by Benoît Delépine starring Gérard Depardieu and Yolande Moreau -whose interpretation of Séraphine in Provost's film is memorable- and the animation film The Illusionist by Chomet, the director who became famous for his successful Les Triplettes de Belleville.
From October 31st to November 2nd Immagini e Suoni dal Mondo will feature docu-fictions and documentaries, among which El último aplauso by Argentinian director Kral, a touching movie about a group of old tangueros looking for their last applause; Allegro crescendo by Cristiano Barbarossa (winner of 2010 Roma Fiction Fest), the story of a group of teenagers who are saved from violence and extreme poverty by music; and La notte della taranta e dintorni by Cannizzaro, on the phenomenon of Tarantism.
Turkish Asli Özge will open the section Cinema e donne (October 5-11) with the film The Man of the Bridge, whereas Roberta Torre will represent Italy with I baci mai dati. Historical Festival dei Popoli will follow (November 13-20), now at its 51st anniversary. New events for this year are the exhibition dedicated to Canadian film-maker, critic and interdisciplinary artist Peter Mettler -author of prize-winning Petropolis-, the retrospective on Swiss cinematography, and two collateral initiatives: the 2010 market of Italian Doc Screenings, and, for the first time, the Stati Generali del Documentario in Toscana, whose aim is to assess the current situation in a region that wants to focus on the "cinema of the real". Lo schermo dell'Arte will take place from November 22nd to 25th, with previews and important guests, such as Tamra Davis, director of the film Jean-Michel Basquiat: The Radiant Child, and Lucy Walker, director of Waste Land, among others.
From November 26th to December 2nd the cinema marathon continues with Florence Queer Festival, which has become one of the most relevant Italian LGBT film shows and which will present Russell Mulcahy's prize-winning Prayers for Bobby. This year's newly established prize is the Regione Toscana Prize, regarding information policies and HIV prevention. And last but not least River to River (December 3-9) will celebrate its 10th anniversary, with a screening of recent Indian productions and a retrospective on great film-maker Satyajit Ray, with a photo exhibition by Nemai Ghosh, his still-photographer, at Museo Marini.
On December 10th the N.I.C.E. (New Italian Cinema Events) will close the film festival, in partnership with Telethon. N.I.C.E. is celebrating its 20 years of promotional activities for Italian cinema abroad, and will award the Premio Città di Firenze to the director of the film which will win the 2010 N.I.C.E U.S.A (November 14-21), that will be picked by an American audience. The screening of the film will follow, and also that of two prize-winning short films. Several actors, actresses, and directors who became famous abroad thanks to the promotion of N.I.C.E. will attend the event.

|Thu, 08 Jan 2004 21:36:29 GMT
Hi, I am a university student doing my thesis which involves the development of a dynamic web application using Apache Tomcat. At this point, I have completed the development of the web application on Windows 2000 (using jakarta-tomcat-5.0.16). I'm currently attempting to deploy the web application on linux, but am encountering problems. I have installed jakarta-tomcat-5.0.16 on linux, and have set the environment variable: JAVA_HOME to the proper path. I have transferred the entire directory "/ACF" from the windows apache tomcat to the linux apache tomcat. However, when I attempt to access a servlet through the web browser (http://localhost:8080/ACF), i get a 404 error: HTTP Status 404 - /ACF The requested resource (/ACF) is not available. The Web Server cannot find the index.html file!!! Even when i direct it to the proper location, I still receive the 404 error: "The requested resource (/ACF/index.html) is not available." I read through the documentation and can't seem to find a solution. Your help in this matter is much appreciated, -Bernard --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: email@example.com For additional commands, e-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com

BOZEMAN, Mont. (AP) Reviving a passenger rail route that used to run between Glendive and Missoula drew crowds of supporters to a town hall meeting in
Tuesday's meeting was organized by Sen.
That study, mandated by Congress, is looking at how to use $1.3 billion in federal money to improve
Montana's infrastructure and projections for ridership and revenue are being assessed, said Ray Lang, director of government affairs for Amtrak, which operates a 21,100-mile system.
Meanwhile, the state Transportation Department is also studying several possible routes in Montana, including the Hiawatha line, which shut down in 1979. The route ran through Glendive, Miles City,
"It really makes sense to put all our options on the table," Tester told the more than 200 people at the meeting. "As with everything, restoring the Hiawatha comes with a cost. This study will put a price tag on restoring the Hiawatha."
Currently, Amtrak's Empire Builder, running through the north of the state, is the only passenger line operating in Montana.
Volatile gas prices have recently renewed interest in passenger trains, and $8 billion in federal stimulus spending has been tagged for building high-speed rails across the nation. At the state level, planners are also beginning to look at options besides building roads.
"If we can make an investment in rail transportation that will lessen the impact on highways, that is an investment worth making," said Jim Lynch, chief of the Montana Department of Transportation.
The state study may be released for public comment by June 17, and the national Amtrak studies are slated for completion in October.

The jaw-dropping true tale of the Silverwood family and their awe-inspiring survival when faced with the most harrowing of events on the high seas is a truly remarkable account. Carrington Macduffie and Joe Barrett bring this story to life, capturing the tense journey down to the slightest detail in these realistic readings. While Macduffie certainly offers more in the line of theatrics, both performances are earnest and raw, allowing the listeners to ebb and flow with the story as if they were tucked away on the Silverwood's 50-foot catamaran. The journey is the destination in this tersely written tale, and with skilled, experienced narrators guiding the way, this trip proves seaworthy. A Random House hardcover (Reviews, Apr. 14).(June)
Black Wave: A Family's Adventure at Sea and the Disaster That Saved Themby John Silverwood
"I told God that if he would let us survive this night, I would make it mean something worthwhile. And then, somehow, I felt calmer than I have ever felt. Unreasonably so. Irrationally so. I looked over the scene of our wrecked life and I smiled–a crazy smile for sure–and I looked through the dark at the mad beauty of
"I told God that if he would let us survive this night, I would make it mean something worthwhile. And then, somehow, I felt calmer than I have ever felt. Unreasonably so. Irrationally so. I looked over the scene of our wrecked life and I smiled–a crazy smile for sure–and I looked through the dark at the mad beauty of it."
–Jean Silverwood
An exhilarating true-life adventure of one family's extraordinary sea voyage of self-discovery and survival, tragedy and triumph
Successful businessman John Silverwood and his wife, Jean, both experienced sailors, decided the time was right to give their four children a taste of thrilling life on the high seas. And indeed their journey aboard the fifty-five-foot catamaran Emerald Jane would have many extraordinary and profound moments, whether it was the peaceful late-night watches John enjoyed under the stunning celestial sky or the elation shared by the whole family at the sight of blissful pods of dolphin and migrating tortoises. John and Jean had hoped to use the trip as a teaching opportunity, with the Emerald Jane as a floating classroom in which to instruct their children in important lessons–not only about the natural world but about the beauty of human life when stripped down to its essence, far from the trappings of civilization.
Yet rather than flourishing amid the new freedoms and responsibilities thrust upon them, the children were sometimes confused, frightened, resentful. The two oldest, fourteen-year-old Ben and twelve-year-old Amelia, missed their friends and the comfortable life left behind in San Diego, while the two youngest, Jack, seven, and Camille, three, picked up on the stressful currents running above and below the surface–for throughout the journey, the Silverwood family found its bonds tested as never before.
John and Jean, whose marriage had weathered its share of storms, would wonder again if they had taken on too much as the physical, emotional, and financial strains of caring for the expensive catamaran and their children brought old resentments to the surface.
John's dream trip that began on Long Island Sound ended almost two years later as a nightmare in treacherous waters off a remote atoll in French Polynesia, where, in an explosion of awesome violence, the terrifying brunt of the ocean's anger fell upon the Emerald Jane.
Gradually, in the crucible of the sea, a stronger, more closely knit unit was forged. The Silverwoods became a crew. Then they became a family again. But just as it seemed to them that they had mastered every challenge, their world was shattered in a split-second of unimaginable horror. Now their real challenge began, forcing them to fight for their very lives.
Editorial Reviews
Adult/High School
It could be said that the Silverwoods' account of hitting a coral reef off the Scilly Islands is a repeat of history, because their 50-foot catamaran, the Emerald Jane , did exactly what the tall sailing ship Julia Ann had done in 1855. Luckily for John, Jean, and their four children, they had the benefit of 21st-century survival gear, particularly the GPS survival beacon that provided the crucial link to the French emergency crews who saved them. Black Wave is an exciting tale; readers know from the start that the family survives, but what makes for deep engagement is learning the parallel story of Captain Pond and his crew and passengers. It is during John Silverwood's recovery and rehabilitation-his leg is crushed during the wreck and later amputated-that he learns about the Julia Ann . As he delves into its history and learns how the 19th-century crew dealt with their devastating misadventure, it helps him put his family's experience into perspective. This book shows that we all deal with catastrophic events differently, but if our actions are explored and investigated, we learn that human beings, no matter the era, have the same basic instincts and needs to make sense of their experiences.-Joanne Ligamari, Twin Rivers United School District, Sacramento, CA

[ 1 ]
a heart-shaped reef
In the same hour that the Emerald Jane was approaching Scilly Island in the South Pacific, my sister-in-law was alone in her New York home. A sharp crash made her jump: A watercolor of a racing sailboat had fallen from her wall to the hardwood floor. A wedding present from John and me, it had hung in the same spot for twenty-one years. Joanne, a little shaken, started calling around the family to find where we might be—she knew we were somewhere far at sea.
Below deck in our catamaran sailboat, my husband, John, stood in the doorway of our tiny stateroom. I can picture him there in that instant before everything changed. Our four children—we had pried them away from their suburban world for a thousand reasons—were busy elsewhere on the boat, settling in for the night. John had just told me how long it would probably take us to get to Fiji, our next destination by way of Tonga; some problems with the boom of the mainsail were slowing us down, but we could fix it in the morning. After Fiji, we would head for Australia. From there, the kids and I were planning to head home to the States, and John would stay long enough to clean up Emerald Jane and sell her—which can take months, and I worried about that. I guess I was worried about what might become of our marriage after this long adventure. I was also worried about the whole idea of selling a ship that had become like one of the family; I thought it would be particularly hard on John, who loved her the most.
We had done what we set out to do two years earlier when we first set sail. Along the way, our children's eyes had opened to the beauty of the world. The kids were very strong characters now, very different from when we began. We loved them in new ways—maybe deeper ways, because we had taken the time to finally get to know them.
John said he had just finished a sweet conversation under the stars with Amelia, our fourteen-year-old daughter, during her turn at the wheel. She had followed him back inside and, by tossing the life vest to her sixteen-year-old brother, Ben, turned the "watch" over to him. He had been watching the movie Drop Dead Gorgeous on a laptop. Movies on DVD were a vestige of our once and future life, and Ben needed a dose of that now and then, as did we all. The boat was on automatic pilot as Ben prepared to go aft for his two-hour watch.
Everybody was finally happy to be together—it had taken a few thousand miles, but the family now seemed in synch and content. I don't mean that it was perfect, but we had learned to live together in a tight space without too much drama.
We had about a minute left.
With our autopilot engaged, the boat was sailing itself in this moment. We thought.
I was propped up in bed with a laptop as John chatted from the doorway. He looked good. He is a handsome, green-eyed guy full of fun and energy. People sometimes say he looks like Dennis Quaid. Maybe so. He does have strong features and he's certainly handsome. He has serious eyes that always give away what he's thinking. He has, or rather had, a dark mustache. Amelia and I talked him into throwing it overboard during the long sail across the Pacific. He's even better-looking with-out it.
He hadn't had a drink since his big meltdown in the Caribbean, and I was pretty much in love with him again.
So you can picture the crew: Amelia looks a little older than her fourteen years. She has long, dark strawberry blond hair, and big, empathetic brown eyes. She is very fit, with a great, honest smile and the hint of dimples. She is very pretty and has a natural charisma that has always filled the space around her. She is eminently sensible, a peacemaker, Daddy's girl. Ben, her older brother by a year and a half, is the surfer archetype: very blond hair, dazzling blue eyes, great smile when it breaks through the gloom of family unfairness, tallish to the point where he sometimes stoops a bit to fit into a crowd. Despite his rock shirts and his surfer looks, you would say he appears quite respectable: a top achiever in Scouts, perhaps, which is exactly right. Little green-eyed Camille, five, has long golden hair, pink cheeks, and a huge smile, which is nearly always beaming. Jack, her freckled nine-year-old brother, seems to have stepped out of an old Our Gang film: the neighborhood tough guy. His mouth is always a little open in wonder. His blond hair and hazel eyes are usually seen only in the blur of his constant explorations. My own hair is long and blond and my eyes are brown, like Amelia's. I do apologize for the fact that we might seem like Southern California stereotypes. Guilty, I suppose.
It was just after dark in a lonely reach of the South Pacific. As we sped westward, the ocean floor was a mile below us—or it was supposed to be.
Then at that moment everything changed.
Like when microphone feedback suddenly fills an auditorium until you must cover your ears, a deafening shrill exploded through the boat. It seemed to come from everywhere. A big jostle. Horrible, gouging, scraping chalkboardlike sounds. The twin hulls under us were screaming. John looked at me the way someone in the next seat of an airplane might look if, at forty thousand feet, all the engines just quit. I had never seen him so instantly confused and horrified—then came the great shaking and crash as we bounced more violently between the iron-hard treetops of submerged coral, sharp as butcher knives. Seconds later we slammed full-on into the coral reef. Our home, the Emerald Jane, came to a ripping halt, and the great waves of the Pacific exploded around us in a deafening, continuous roar. John caught himself against the doorway. "My God!" he shouted, his eyes drilling crazily into mine. Everything about our lives had just changed and we knew it. Our lives, our children's lives, could end in the dark of the sea in what? A minute from now? Less?
"Reef!" Ben screamed from the deck.
"It cannot be coral! We're miles . . ." John yelled to himself and me as he bounded up the small stairway—I was right behind him.
"Dad! Dad! What's happening?" Amelia shouted over the roaring surf and the loud tearing of the boat against the coral. She tried to cut him off in the salon. The Drop Dead laptop was dead on the floor; things had fallen everywhere. Our two younger kids, Jack and Camille, were on the salon's big wraparound sofa under the front windows, petrified and gritting their teeth, their eyes incredibly wide and their hands hovering in front of them with their little fingers outstretched, shaking.
"It's a reef, guys. We're on a reef. We'll be fine," John said without stopping, pushing Amelia aside and running aft through the open glass door of the salon and leaping up the step to the teak deck of the cock-pit. His eyes were terrified and the kids saw that. They had never seen him like this before—though they had seen a lot. Then I came through behind him, grabbed flashlights, and they saw my eyes. I didn't believe John's quick analysis that we'd be fine. The kids took no comfort in it either. His eyes, truer than his lips, were saying, we are in very serious trouble.
He had been so careful to navigate us far around the coral atoll islands in this stretch of sea. Back in Tahiti, he had replaced the autopilot's computer to make sure we had the very best.
As we looked over the edge of the deck into the dark sea—the moon had not yet risen—our flashlights revealed millions of hard, red fingers of coral tearing at our boat through the boiling surf. Our lights would not last for long, and John would soon be asking Ben to take a knife and do the unthinkable. So much would happen this night in the dark.
John threw the engine hard into reverse just as a high wave crested violently over the stern and over him with a loud crash. The double hulls smashed again with a horrible sound into the coral. He leapt through the flash flood on deck to reach the controls of the other engine. He hit the start button and pushed it hard into reverse. Both engines could not even begin to pull the boat off the reef.
Only the front, smaller jib sail, called the genoa and nicknamed the genny, had been in use. It absolutely had to be hauled down this instant if the engines were to have any chance. John pulled the genny's thick Dacron line off one of the two stainless-steel, hourglass-shaped winches behind the wheels. The wind should have instantly spilled from the sail, but, in the windy whip and tangle of the moment, the line had jammed in a pulley somewhere forward. Ben, enough of a sailor now to understand that the sail had to be cut, snapped the handle of a diving knife into his father's hand.
John zigzagged forward along the lurching deck. Crouching near the bow, he cut the line. As the genny snapped free to flap in the wind, the large metal reinforced tip of the sail—where the lines tie on—whistled toward his face. He leapt backward as it just missed his eyes; he had seen the glint of it coming thanks to flashlights Ben and Amelia were now shining forward from the aft deck.
The surf roared like a tumble of jet engines all around us. We were screaming to each other just to be heard.
I ran into the salon to help get the kids ready for our escape. Little Jack and Camille were still frozen in fear on the wraparound sofa—just sitting there hugging each other and shaking horribly. There were loud popping and cracking sounds. Looking down the stairs into the port hull, I was suddenly watching a disaster movie; it couldn't be real: Water was filling the starboard hull as if a dam had burst. The view down the little stair-way was of water rushing floor to ceiling from Amelia's room toward Ben's. Her tennis shoes and bedclothes and books were swirling in the flood. Then the retreat of the sea pulled the water back toward Amelia's room, drawing Ben's things into the swirl, then back again. With each surge, the water was lapping higher up the steps toward the salon where we stood frozen, watching, maybe screaming. It couldn't be real. The boat was being devoured now with each great wave.
Amelia and I grabbed canvas shopping totes and started collecting some of the flotsam that might be useful in the life raft, especially bottles of water and packages of food. Our hands were shaking so violently that it was hard to pick things up and put them in the bags—and I was slipping terribly on the wood floor. Jack said something but I could not make it out. "What, Jack?" I screamed over the din of crashing surf and cracking boat.
"I don't want to die," he screamed back.
"Me either!" little Camille screamed.
"We don't want to die!" they screamed together.
Amelia was handling this better then I was; she put her arms around both of them.
"Don't worry," she said, "we have two other boats, remember? This is what they are for—just this kind of thing. It happens all the time." They calmed down and sat back to watch this disaster movie. But they were shaking like we were.
I stepped outside to see how John and Ben were doing. They would have to get the emergency life raft going somehow. The other boat, the dinghy, wouldn't last long swinging there on the stern in this surf.
The coral's digestion of the boat had now become a steady fusillade of earsplitting cracks and pops as the hulls and bulkheads—remarkably strong carbon-fiber laminates—cracked apart. Our belongings began to wash around us. Even above this sound, a new, deep roar behind the boat made all the flashlight beams shine aft to reveal a cresting wave building high above us. Down it came, ripping the dinghy and its stainless-steel davits from the deck. The stern of Emerald Jane rose up and crashed on top of the loosened dinghy.
Even without the genny pulling the boat farther into the coral, our engines were useless against the power of the waves and the tightening grip of the coral.
"The radio!" John screamed as he passed by me in the cockpit. He headed through the open glass doors into the salon, where he stood for a second in shock to see the interior awash. He turned to Ben and pointed to the GPS position readout at the chart table. Somewhere in that instant, Ben found a pencil and scrap of paper to write down our position. John and I went the few steps down into the port hull, sloshing but not too deep yet, where the SSB radio was still getting power. John dialed in the emergency frequency and put the microphone close to his mouth to be heard over the roar of our destruction. We were standing in water and operating electrical equipment; I prayed that everything was grounded properly.
"Mayday! Mayday! Mayday! This is sailing vessel Emerald Jane. We have struck a reef in position"—Ben reached down the stairs to hand him the scrap of paper—"approximately 16 degrees, 35 minutes south . . . We are sinking and in need of immediate assistance. Mayday. Mayday . . ."
Ben, seeing the fear in the eyes of the little ones, joined Amelia in offering some comfort. He scooped his little brother up and held him close as he turned on the less useful VHF radio in the salon and tried for an acknowledgment from a passing airliner or another ship. Nothing. Our lights began to flicker.

As a career Navy officer and experienced sailor, I had heard anecdotally about this incident at sea but was thrilled to read the Silverwoods' story of peril, survival and redemption. I believe that everything we learn and experience in life ultimately prepares us for an incident like this and when it comes, we find out what we (and our family) are really made of. This is truly a Man vs. Man, Man vs. Nature and Man vs. Himself account brought to life aboard a luxury catamaran on the high seas. Plan to spend an entire afternoon reading this book because once you start, you can't put it down.
For me, this book was very difficult to read. I got about 110 pages into the book before I stopped reading. Even with all the drama of their disaster at sea, the story was pretty boring. It took Jean, who wrote the first part, more than 40 pages to get to their actual time at sea. The family history that came before that was not really that interesting. Also, when Jean spoke about her kids, she never seemed able to describe them well enough to make them feel real. Jean's writing wasn't very good, but that's to be expected. One thing that she did that was most annoying was her extreme detail when describing her family or their history. The only situation in the book that caught my attention or felt real was when John started drinking again. It also made their children more 3D since Jean wasn't trying to describe them herself, she was just explaining how they reacted to the situation. Overall, if you love hearing about a mother's (and father's) view of their children, especially as they overcome obstacles, then you might like this book.
The parents John and Jean Silverwood who wrote the book, want to have their children experience life on a boat and all that nature has to offer. Their two older children are teenagers and caught up in the usual friends and material things that kids like. Their two younger children will experience the voyage and learn new things. The parents want to recapture the closeness with their two older children. Its quite an interesting story. Makes you wonder how your family would feel and deal with things that came up while they were sailing. They meet lots of new people, have inner struggles and ultimately become a stronger family. All four of the children want to take the same trip with their children, all on the water, except the oldest boy who wants to take a trip on land.
One of the reason that i like it is because its adventurous and i find this book uniqe
awsome book
This book is "unputdownable". I highly recommend it.
This book has to be one of my favorites. Great read and recommended
I TRULY enjoyed BLACK WAVE. The authors captured the advertureous heart of a sailor versus the worry and concern of a wife and mother yet, it was the family bond that helped them to survive. A really enjoyable read!! J.K. Boston, MA

If you are drawn towards art which is symbolic, dreamy, and luminous in a dark and delightful way, then you have come to the right place. My work has been described as "where Lovecraft meets Poe", "a delightful trip through the looking glass", and "something from another world." I handcraft each piece with obsessive detail from the inside out, because my art is my passion.
I am slowly but surely restocking my online shop, including the newest pieces still available. Please check often for availability.
I have a few prints available. I don't get reproductions often. If there is an image you'd like to see in print, please let me know.
