Hurricane Igor was a destructive tropical cyclone which passed by Bermuda and struck the Island of Newfoundland.
This storm was a powerful Category Four hurricane with winds as high as 155 miles per hour.
Igor brushed Bermuda as a minor hurricane with minimal damage.
In Newfoundland, however, the storm caused $200 million in damage, making Igor the most destructive Atlantic tropical cyclone on record to strike the region.
The name Igor was retired and replaced by Ian for the 2016 Atlantic season.
History of Bermuda
Colonel Sir Arthur Edwin Young, KBE, CMG, CVO, KStJ, KPM (15 February 1907 – 20 January 1979) was a British police officer.
He was Commissioner of Police of the City of London from 1950 to 1971 and was also the first head of the Royal Ulster Constabulary to be called the Chief Constable, instead of Inspector-General.
Young helped create the post of Chief Inspector of Constabulary.
In the early 1950s, he played a crucial role in policing decolonisation in the British Empire, and developedg a model of public service policing that was not liked by everyone in some colonies but which time has shown to have been a good idea.
During the 1960s, he led the way in modernising British police recruitment and in improving the training of senior officers.
Young was born in Eastleigh, Hampshire, the third of four children of Edwin Young (1878–1936), a builder and contractor, and his wife Gertrude Mary (née Brown; 1880–1945).
He went to school in Southsea from 1912 to 1915 and then Portsmouth Grammar School from 1915 to 1924.
He was not very good at school, but liked the Officers' Training Corps; later he returned to present prizes and told the pupils that his parents would have been very surprised to see him in the hall on speech day because he had never come close to winning any school award.
Aged sixteen, he left to join the Portsmouth Borough Police, against his family's wishes.
His mother and grandmother never approved because they thought the police an unsuitable career for a young man from an middle-class family.
When his maternal aunt Emma Brown married Superintendent Samuel Bowles of the Hampshire Constabulary, she made him resign.
Portsmouth Borough/City Police
Young's father's business partner Alderman Sir John Henry Corke (1850–1927) helped Young get his first job in the Chief Constable's office (the post of Cadet Clerk was specially created for him) in December 1924.
On the advice of Thomas Davies, the Chief Constable, he first took a course in business and accountancy.
Made a Constable in May 1925, he became the Coroner's Officer in April 1932.
In June 1932, aged 25, he became the youngest Detective Sergeant in the United Kingdom, serving with the Northern Division CID.
While he was there, he led investigations into murder, blackmail, fraud and arson.
He headed the enquiries into the UK's first case of manslaughter arising from the use of an aeroplane.
At the same time he got more involved in the many royal visits to Portsmouth.
When Haile Selassie visited the dockyard in September 1937, he acted as his personal escort and French interpreter.
During these years, Young was also entrusted with what he later called "enquiries concerning the activities of subversive persons and propaganda, and also with other matters affecting state security" - looking for spies.
It was also during these years that he acquired his passion for ever better police equipment and his personal love of new gadgets.
Young was promoted to Inspector (equivalent to Lieutenant in US police forces) in June 1937 and appointed to Portsmouth's Southern Division.
In Eastney and Southsea, he first had to deal with the problems created by traffic, including ways for its efficient control and of the need to promote road safety.
Young was a keen motorist, who moved from a motorcycle to a series of fast cars.
Leamington Spa Borough Police
Young wanted to head his own force and tried to become chief constable of the Isle of Wight Constabulary, before he became Acting Chief Constable of Leamington Spa Borough Police in September 1938, aged 31, at a salary of £500 per annum.
One year later, he was appointed to the permanent post of Chief Constable.
He was one of the youngest men ever to become a Chief Constable.
In his first nine months in Leamington he persuaded the council to hire an extra twelve officers, the first increase since 1915.
This meant he had 57 police officers to cover all of Leamington Spa.
He also reorganised the borough's fire brigade, and, among other police innovations, set up twelve of "police pillars", a network of two-way microphone handsets across the borough so that the public could contact police stations and civil defence posts directly.
The base of the pillar contained first aid equipment while, a Leamington innovation, a flashing red light on the top called up policemen on patrol.
From November 1940 he was seconded by the Home Office for six months to Coventry after its blitz.
He ran the city's police because the Chief Constable was fully occupied as Civil Defence Controller  Young started the "good neighbour scheme" for bombed out civilians that he had trialled in Leamington and which was later adopted nationally by the Home Office.
Birmingham City Police
Leamington's was a very small force and for a year his command was only "acting" so, from the start, Young was looking for a permanent as well as a larger command.
After several unsuccessful applications (the East Riding of Yorkshire Constabulary in 1939, Portsmouth City Police in 1940, Oxford City Police in 1940), in September 1941 he was selected from a short-list of six as Senior Assistant Chief Constable of Birmingham City Police, then the second-largest police force in the UK; the salary was £1,000 p.a.
He was to be responsible for training and communications - both things he was good at.
In Birmingham he started to experiment with police training.
Learning by example and by demonstration is common now, but in 1941 it was a new idea and it caught the approving eye of the Home Office.
He also made Birmingham the foremost British force in the use of police wireless by establishing in 1942 a "duplex" ultra high-frequency two-way radio telephone system linking every police station and every police car.
Wartime service
In February 1943 Young was one of the chief constables sent to the War Office Civil Affairs Training Centre for the first course for senior officers.
Before the course was finished, he was transferred to the instructing staff and in June 1943 he was appointed the first commandant of the new Police Civil Affairs Training Centre at Peel House in London (with a rank as if he was a Lieutenant-Colonel in the army).
He had to set up the training school for policemen and provost officers (military police) who would keep law and order in Axis territory as it was liberated by advancing Allied forces.
Just after the centre was opened and its first students through their course, Young was made a Colonel and moved from the classroom in July 1943 to be Senior British Police Officer in the Mediterranean Theatre, stationed in North Africa awaiting the invasion of Sicily.
Young went ashore on day two of the invasion, and became Director of Public Safety in the first functioning Allied military government - the Allied Control Commission for Italy; in December 1943 he was given the additional role of Director of Security, responsible directly to the Commander-in-Chief for hunting saboteurs and enemy agents as well as the removal of fascist officials from public offices.
In Italy, Young commanded not just British officers but the 120,000 men of the entire Italian police and had responsibility for all Italian prisons, fire brigades and civil defence.
The models Young developed in Italy were later applied across Allied occupied Europe in 1944–1945, but his proudest achievement was the restoration and reorganisation of the Carabinieri, with whom he maintained an association for the rest of his life.
He also fell in love with Italy, returning regularly and frequently holidaying in Positano and visiting his wartime friend Colonel Alfredo "Freddy" Zanchino of the Carabinieri.
Hertfordshire Constabulary
Young became Chief Constable of Hertfordshire Constabulary in 1944 (but released from the army only in April 1945).
He was in charge of 515 officers  at a salary of £1,290.
Still aged only 38, he had twenty-one years of experience of small, medium and large city and borough forces.
From Hertfordshire, he set the pace in revitalising county police forces, pushing his police authority to spend a lot of money to improve officers' pay and conditions.
Young persuaded his police authority to fund a building programme so that in six years every married man in the county force would have a police house; the design and equipping of these houses was agreed between the county architects and a "housing committee", recruited through the county Police Federation, not only of men of all ranks but, at Young's insistence, of officers' wives.
In 1946, he wrote:
"I hold the view that the police organisation is not a police force but a police service, which offers to the right individual not merely a job but all the advantages of a professional career.
I believe in doing everything reasonably possible by way of improving the conditions and amenities for all ranks of the service, and in particular in delegating both authority and responsibility to officers according to their rank.
Having done this I am prepared to accept nothing but the highest standard of service by way of return."
He also persuaded his authority to buy new equipment because he wanted a modern, efficient police force.
The Home Office allowed Hertfordshire to be the first force after the war to introduce a wireless system - Young adapted from his Birmingham model for rural use.
To make it as effective as possible, the Home Office accepted his idea that the wireless network cover more than one county so the neighbouring county force of Bedfordshire was added.
His time at Hertfordshire also saw the start of a professional relationship with James Callaghan.
They already knew each other from Portsmouth, where their mothers had both worked at Agnes Weston's Sailors Rest; Callaghan had tried unsuccessfully to court Young's sister, Eileen.
Callaghan was now a junior minister at the Ministry of Transport.
They met up with each other again on a road safety committee and became working allies to extend speed restrictions and improve road markings; cat's eyes were perhaps the most significant fruit of their labours.
They worked together again when Callaghan was Home Secretary and it was Callaghan who selected Young to go to Ulster in 1969 to implement the Hunt Report.
Hertfordshire showed that Young wanted to be a chief police officer who made things happen.
He applied unsuccessfully to be chief constable of Kent in 1946, but his next job was offered to him.
So impressed was Home Secretary James Chuter Ede, he appointed Young to the vacant post of Assistant Commissioner "D" of the Metropolitan Police in London, in charge of organisation, recruitment, training and communications.
The Home Secretary knew that the nation's police forces were stuck to old ways and needed the  shake-up that the young chief constable had already delivered in Hertfordshire; Scotland Yard must not be left out.
Things, however, did not go well.
The Commissioner, Sir Harold Scott, tolerated him (although he was an outsider too), but senior colleagues cold-shouldered him.
Within "D" Department, Young delivered all the Home Secretary had hoped for, a success that only alienated the hierarchy even further.
In March 1950 Young became the first former constable to be appointed Commissioner of Police of the City of London.
He built up his reputation as "the policeman's policeman".
Improved pay and conditions and professional standards remained his constant pre-occupations.
The police under his command found him forceful but gracious, intolerant of failings in himself as well as others.
In all his forces, he was popular with all ranks under his command.
Young came to love the City of London.
He relished command of a force small enough to know every constable well.
He enjoyed the City's rich social life too, and he much valued the invitation to join the Goldsmiths Company.
The police needed to recruit and with considerable success he set about making service more attractive.
Pay and allowances were increased, housing modernised, and catering improved.
Uniforms were made more comfortable and practical.
At another level, he pushed through changes in career structures.
He engineered a national recruitment revolution in the British police, running command courses and seeing through a fast-track entry scheme to attract graduates - and for many years he was director of extended interviews for the Senior Command Course that he had founded.
These and other changes were designed to make possible the promotion of talented people.
Young realised that the police could no longer rely on habits little changed for a century.
He fought for the recruitment and promotion of women.
He resisted the well-ingrained tradition of bringing senior officers from the armed forces into police commands; and only with great reluctance did he give in to the demand from the Hertfordshire police committee that he use his wartime military rank.
He sternly opposed Lord Trenchard's officer-class way of thinking as wholly inappropriate for the British police service.
He wanted to follow Sir Robert Peel's intention that the police be "filled from the bottom up".
The young man whose own family had thought that being a policeman was far from suitable dedicated his own long career to making the police a respected and attractive profession.
Royal Ulster Constabulary
In November 1969 (until 1970) Young was seconded to be the last Inspector-General and the first Chief Constable of the Royal Ulster Constabulary.
James Callaghan, then Home Secretary, sent him to carry out the Hunt Report, which introduced the standard British rank system for police officers in Northern Ireland and disbanded the controversial Ulster Special Constabulary.
Other positions
He chaired the Police Council for the UK, the Association of Chief Police Officers training centres committee and the education committee of the National Police Fund.
He was a governor of the Police College and of Atlantic College, and a member of the committees of the Police Advisory Board, the National Police Fund, the Royal Humane Society, the National Rifle Association, the National Scout Council and the Thames Group Hospitals.
He was President of the Association of Chief Police Officers (ACPO) in 1962.
Colonial police reforms
One feature of Young's career was as a police reformer in colonial hotspots.
He had four such missions:
A short period in the Gold Coast in 1950 preparing the blueprint for the role of the police as the colony was being prepared to become the first British territory in Africa to be granted independence.
Then in 1952–1953, Young was seconded to the Federation of Malaya to be Commissioner of Police during the Emergency.
In 1954, Young was asked to undertake a second secondment in the UK's troubled colonies - this time in Kenya as Commissioner of Police during the Mau Mau uprising.
Young was brought up in a household with strong Anglican evangelical beliefs (the family attended St Jude's, Southsea for matins and evensong every Sunday as well as week-day meetings).
He also patrolled Portsmouth's slums and docks as a young constable, and this had an effect on Young.
Guided by his curate, the Reverend Frederick Dillistone, later Dean of Liverpool, he decided that he must seek ordination (become a priest).
The Bishop of Portsmouth, Neville Lovett, however, rejected his application to attend theological college, telling him at interview that "policemen do not become priests".
Although later in life Young would drift away from regular worship, the impact of Portsmouth on his world-view never shifted.
Shocked by the poverty and injustice which he discovered, Young became a staunch Christian socialist and, very rare for a chief constable, a lifelong Labour Party voter.
Throughout his career, he sought out contact with clergymen and in the later 1960s, encouraged by the Bishop of London, again considered Anglican ordination.
On 11 April 1939, at Boarhunt parish church, Hampshire, he married Ivy Ada May Hammond (born 20 December 1909), a nurse from the Royal Portsmouth Hospital whom he had courted for years - custom then dictated lengthy enagements and police pay then was very low.
She died of cancer on 14 September 1956.
They had one son, Christopher John Young, born in 1941.
Young married Mrs Margaret Furnival Homan, née Dolphin, in 1957.
The marriage fell apart quickly and they separated.
She committed suicide in Malta in 1966.
On 16 April 1970, he married Mrs Ileen Fryer Turner (née Rayner, born 19 April 1914), whom he had known since she was his police driver in Birmingham during the war and who at one time had been the mistress of his great friend Sir Edward ('Ted') Dodd, Chief Constable of Birmingham and later Chief Inspector of Constabulary.
She died on 31 December 2002.
In the 1980s, she declined a proposal of marriage from Sir Graham Shillington, Young's successor as Chief Constable of the RUC.
Young's career made him the most decorated policeman of his era.
Young was awarded the King's Police Medal (KPM) in 1952 and was appointed Commander of the Order of St Michael and St George (CMG) in 1953 and Commander of the Royal Victorian Order (CVO) in 1962.
He was knighted in 1965 and appointed Knight Commander of the Order of the British Empire (KBE) in 1971.

The Royal Victorian Order is a British honour.
It is given by The Queen, to people who have served her, or the Monarchy personally.
Like the Orders of the Garter and Thistle, the Prime Minister does not suggest who should get the honour.
The Order was created in April 1896, by Queen Victoria, as a way of rewarding personal service to her.
Today, people receive their award either privately from The Queen or another member of the Royal Family, or during an investiture.
Often, and on a State Visit, the Queen will invest people in the country visited before returning to the UK.
The British Ambassador and others who have helped the Visit may be rewarded, as can foreigners, and it is often awarded by the Sovereign during official tours overseas.
The motto is Victoria.

Royal Victorian Medal
The Royal Victorian Medal was set up at the same time as the order.
It is for personal service to the Sovereign or the Royal Family, and as a mark of royal esteem.
Although the Medal is related to the Royal Victorian Order, it differs in appearance and in the way it is worn.
The Medal is given to civilians and non-commissioned military personnel, often to people who have worked for the Sovereign for a long time.

The Dnepropetrovsk maniacs is a media name for two serial killers from Dnipropetrovsk, Ukraine, who caused 21 murders in June and July 2007.
The murderers are named Viktor Sayenko (born March 1, 1988) and Igor Suprunyuck (born April 20, 1988).
They gained notoriety when a video recording of one of the murders was leaked to the internet.
The video on the internet is often called 3guys1hammer.
Sayenko and Suprunyuck were charged with murder after they were arrested.
Alexander Hanzha, one of their friends, was charged with two robberies that took place before the murder spree.
They were all found guilty by a court in February 2009, and Suprunyuck and Sayenko were sentenced to life imprisonment.
Hanzha received nine years in prison.
The leaked internet video shows the murder of a 48-year-old man named Sergei Yatzenko.
He is shown lying on his back in a wooded area, and is struck many times in the face with a hammer that is held inside a yellow plastic bag.
Suprunyuck pokes out Yatzenko's eyes, and stabs him in the abdomen with a screwdriver.
He is then struck with the hammer again in order to ensure that he is dead.
The attack lasts over four minutes, during which the victim slips in and out of consciousness.
During the video, Suprunyuck is shown smiling at the camera.
They are insects which have never had wings at any time in their evolutionary history.
Their first known occurrence in the fossil record is in the Rhynie chert of the Devonian period, ~400 million years ago.
While some other insects, such as fleas, also lack wings, these are descended from winged insects, and have lost them during the course of evolution.
By contrast, the apterygotes are a primitive group of insects that diverged from other orders before wings evolved.
The nymphs (younger stages) go through little or no metamorphosis, so they look like the adults.
They continue to moult throughout life, with multiple instars (stages) after reaching sexual maturity.
All other insects have only a single sexually mature adult stage.
Males deposit sperm packages rather than fertilising the female internally.
History of the group
The classification of the Apterygota changed over time.
By the mid 20th century, the subclass included four orders (Collembola, Protura, Diplura, and Thysanura).
With the advent of a more rigorous cladistic methodology, the subclass turned out to be paraphyletic.
The first three groups formed a monophyletic group, the Entognatha.
The Thysanura is more closely related to winged insects.
thus rendering even the amyocerate apterygotes paraphyletic.

Pslams 152-155 are psalms of the Bible that only exist in the Syriac language translation of the Bible, which is commonly known as Peshitta.
Psalms 154 and 155 also exist in a Hebrew version in the Dead Sea Scrolls.
Together with Psalm 151, which only exists in some versions of the Septuagint, these psalms are sometimes called the 'Five Apocryphal Psalms of David'.
Tiryns () was an ancient Greek acropolis (city).
The remains are in the  Peloponnese, a large peninsula  and region in southern Greece, near to Nauplion.
Heinrich Schliemann excavated Tiryns in 1885 and 1886.
Tiryns is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, listed with Mycenae.

Wind engineering studies effects of wind on the buildings and its possible damage or problems to their inhabitants.
From the point of structural engineering, it is interested in strong winds, which may cause discomfort, as well as extreme winds, such as in a tornado, hurricane or heavy storm, which may cause widespread destruction.
Wind engineering needs information from meteorology, fluid dynamics, mechanics,  and a number of special engineering disciplines including aerodynamics, and structural dynamics.
The tools may also include atmospheric models, atmospheric boundary layer, wind tunnels and computational fluid dynamics models.

The Messel Pit () is a disused quarry near the village of Messel, Hesse.
The site about 35 km southeast of Frankfurt am Main, Germany.
It is a site where fine fossils are preserved: a lagerstätte.
The site is very important: it includes fossils of early mammals, including early primates.
Because of its fossils, the site has significant geological and scientific importance.
After almost becoming a landfill, strong local resistance eventually stopped those plans.
The Messel pit was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1995.
It was placed on the list solely due to fossils.
Amateur collectors developed a "transfer technique" to preserve the fine details of small fossils, the method still used to  preserve the fossils today.
