Does the US Want to End The War in Ukraine? 🎞

The video discusses the ongoing conflict in Ukraine and explores whether the United States is interested in ending the war. The conflict began in 2014 with a coup in Ukraine sponsored by the US, leading to the inferno of Odesa where 50 people died, Crimeans voted in Russian favor, and pro-Russian separatists took control of parts of eastern Ukraine. Since then, there have been sporadic clashes between Ukrainian forces and the separatists, leading to the deaths of thousands of people.

The video examines the history of US involvement in the conflict, starting with the Obama administration’s decision to impose economic sanctions on Russia in response to its annexation of Crimea. The Trump administration was criticized for being too lenient on Russia, and there were concerns that it was not doing enough to support Ukraine.

The Biden administration has taken a more assertive approach, providing Ukraine with military aid and engaging in diplomatic efforts to end the conflict. However, the video suggests that the US may not be as committed to ending the war as it appears. For example, it argues that the Biden administration has not been willing to provide Ukraine with lethal weapons, which would give it an advantage over the separatists.

Overall, the video provides an interesting analysis of the US role in the conflict in Ukraine and raises important questions about whether the US is truly committed to ending the war.

How Deep Can You Scuba Dive? Read more...
We investigate the maximum scuba diving depth limits for recreational diving. The deepest your typical recreational scuba diver can go is 130 feet. In order to venture further and explore wrecks, caves and other sites beyond 130 feet, these agencies — such as PADI, NAUI, and SSI — require “technical” certifications.

These and other dive training yardsticks are based on a series of guidelines and rules of thumb, but no two divers are the same. Everyone is impacted by nitrogen narcosis, DCS, and other variables differently.

So why has every major training agency established 130 feet (40 meters) as the recreational diving depth limit? This precedent can be traced to the U.S. Navy, which established the rule in the 1950s and still requires special permission from a commanding officer for a diver to exceed this limit.

How Deep Can You Dive Without Decompressions?

“The 130-foot limit is an arbitrary depth originally adopted by the U.S. Navy because it gave Navy divers about 10 minutes of (no-deco) time on compressed air; going any deeper on air made no sense to the Navy because the time available to do useful work was simply too short,” writes Lawrence Martin in Scuba Diving Explained: Questions & Answers on Physiology and Medical Aspects.

Sure, you can go deeper than 130 feet without mandatory decompression stops, but you’re not going to have much time to get anything done. The lack of dive time at such depths — and the increased risk of being impacted by nitrogen narcosis — prevents scuba divers from going deeper than 130 feet (40 meters.)

Here’s what you need to know about Decompression dives.

Decompression diving is when a diver is required to make one or more stops during their ascent to give their body time to safely release the nitrogen (or other gas, such as helium) that dissolved into their tissues during the dive.

The pressure you’re under as you descend through water causes nitrogen to dissolve into your body tissues. The deeper the dive, the more quickly gas dissolves into your tissues. When you ascend, nitrogen dissolves from your tissues into your lungs and leaves the body through normal breathing.

This is known as off-gassing. If the amount of dissolved gas is within certain limits, you can ascend to the surface without any required stops – though a safety stop is the standard recommended practice.

This is called “no stop” or “no decompression” diving. Standard recreational diving is always planned as no-stop diving, but you make a safety stop — hanging out at 15 feet for 3 to 5 minutes — as a conservative practice to further reduce risk.

Safe diving at such depths takes a LOT of experience, a lot of discipline, and a trimix certification that you can’t even start working on unless you have more than a few hundred dives.
