Giant purpleblack flying squid photobombs crew investigating shipwreck. Scientists mapping the seafloor in the Gulf of Aqaba, the "right antenna" part of the northern Red Sea, recently made two remarkable sightings almost simultaneously: a sunken shipwreck and a mysterious big squid zipping around it, according to the marine research organization OceanX.
After sending down a remotely operated vehicle ROV , the OceanX team quickly identified the shipwreck — it was the Pella, a ferry that caught on fire and sank in November The squid, however, took longer to identify. But it made plenty of cameos; the crew used the ROV and submersibles to visit the wreck three times, and each time they saw a huge squid swimming by. Ducklings save energy by swimming in mom's wake. The iconic sight of ducklings swimming in line behind their mother is driven by physics that allows baby ducks to save energy, according to findings published in the Journal of Fluid Mechanics.
Researchers created computer models to show that ducklings position themselves in just the right spots in their mother's wake to reduce wave drag, making swimming easier.
The resort is home to a water park with a lazy river, a beachfront swimming pool and water slides, as well as nine dining experiences, rooms and suites, a candy-themed spa, an aerial obstacle course and an outdoor playground.

Top stories summarized by our editors. In contrast to being over prepared, there are those swimmers who bring the bare minimum to meets. They are always looking for a quick snack to or from practice, at meets, or just in the middle of the day. Swimmers with a loaded snack bag are always prepared for that stomach-call of hunger.
The swimmer who has the grocery store snack aisle in their bag knows how to make sure their body is fueled and refueled as needed.
Wrappers upon wrappers have been collected by this swimmer from day to day snacking and from meet day snacking. The stash of wrappers stored in pockets of swim bags may be from pure laziness; however, an optimistic view could be looking at this bag style as a creative way a swimmer can remind themselves that they are fueling their bodies right — the wrappers are motivation to keep doing so.
Some swimmers get crafty when it comes to their swim bag. Adding ribbon or key chains to spice it up is yet another form of expression. This could also just be a simple way to make them happy and feel confident. Swim bags are a part of the swim culture that do not receive enough credit. How swimmers decorate and maintain their swim bags are another aspect that makes this sport so special.
Next time you are at a meet, race or at the local pool, take a look at other swim bags and see what you notice! How does your bag stand out among the rest? All commentaries are the opinion of the author and do not necessarily reflect the views of Swimming World Magazine nor its staff. Now that was a nice and entertaining read of which I can relate to when looking at the swim bags of my three children, who by the way are ecstatic to be back with their team practicing their craft.
