Cameron became a prominent media presence to offer both his Titanic and oceanic expertise to what may have caused the Titan submersible to implode while en route to the Titanic. He became vocally critical of Rush’s apparent disregard for industry protocol in the materials he was using on the submersible — a decision that may have cost him his life as well as the lives of a Pakastani businessman and his son, Shahzada and Suleman Dawood; British businessman Hamish Harding; and French diver and Titanic expert Paul-Henri Nargeolet, who was a personal friend and peer of Cameron.“I’m struck by the similarity of the Titanic disaster itself, where the captain was repeatedly warned about ice ahead of his ship yet he steamed at full speed into an ice field on a moonless night and many people died as a result,” Cameron said in a video interview on ABC News.
Exact date UK heatwave will return as Met Office predicts blazing temperatures
28.06.2023 - 14:07 / dailyrecord.co.uk
The UK is set to see the return of a scorching heatwave soon, with temperatures to soar once again from next month.
Preliminary data from forecasters at the Met Office show that June has been the hottest month in the UK ever, with more warm weather to come, reports the Mirror.
There have been long spells of scorching temperatures and clear skies throughout the month, reaching into the 30Cs in Scotland in June.
However, typical British weather returned and heavy showers hit, with more storms to come this week alongside milder temperatures.
However, with July just around the corner, forecasters are predicting yet another heatwave for the UK. This new heatwave is predicted to even beat 2022's record-breaking temperature in Lincolnshire of 40.3C.
In Scotland, the hottest ever temperature was 34.8C recorded in the Borders in 2022. Scotland recorded its hottest day of 2023 in June in Dumfries and Galloway, which reached 30.7C.
The Met Office said indications for "above-average temperatures are stronger" from July 12 to July 26. This means that the "occurrence of heatwaves carries a correspondingly higher likelihood".
Met Office meteorologist Jonathan Vautrey told The Mirror: "Towards the middle to the end of July there is an increasing chance that high pressure may become established.
"On balance northern areas are more likely to see drier conditions with southern areas seeing greater risk of showers and thunderstorms.
"We can say there is a greater than normal chance of heat waves for the whole period of the middle to the end of July."
A heatwave is categorised as when temperatures reach the threshold of 25C in Scotland, and remain there for three days or more.
And according to Jonathan: "Because of the change in climate our

Omid Scobie: Royals will ‘be ashamed’ after Harry, Meghan ‘investigation’
Endgame: Inside the Royal Family and the Monarchy’s Fight for Survival,” is expected to be highly disparaging of the royal family — a flip from his supportive biography of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, “Finding Freedom.”The journalist wrote in an op-ed this week that the nonfiction work — which was delayed three months so it could include “sensational details” about the coronation of King Charles III — will dissect the royal family’s successes, as well as things they “should be ashamed of.”Scobie described the book as “an unfiltered investigation into the current state of the royal family” that has “details on unsolved mysteries.”“Just like this country’s politicians, the royals are not, and should not be, above reproach — no matter how desperately certain press secretaries may want you to think so,” he wrote in the i newspaper.“Finding Freedom” was mainly told from the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s perspective, but this book is expected to not be framed in their narrative, the Daily Beast reported.Meghan briefed Scobie and his co-author Carolyn Durand through a third-party for the 2020 book, which contained many personal anecdotes of the Sussex’s personal lives.It wouldn’t be likely the Sussexes would permit Scobie to write another book from their point of view looking back at their royal life with displeasure as their popularity continues to wane — but there’s also very little belief that the author will paint Prince William and Princess Kate in a positive light.“In order to tell a full story, it has to be written without fear [or] favour — regardless of the consequences,” Scobie said.
