Maritime geography is often discussed in terms of three loosely defined regions: brown water, green water, and blue water.
Definitions
The elements of maritime geography are loosely defined and their meanings have changed throughout history. The USA's 2010 Naval Operations Concept defines blue water as "the open ocean", green water as "coastal waters, ports and harbors", and brown water as "navigable rivers and their estuaries". Robert Rubel of the US Naval War College includes bays in his definition of brown water, and in the past US military commentators have extended brown water out to 100 nautical miles (190km) from shore.
During the Cold War, green water denoted those areas of ocean in which naval forces might encounter land-based aircraft and brown water, land-based artillery. The development of long-range bombers with antiship missiles turned most of the oceans to "green" and the term all but disappeared. After the Cold War, US amphibious taskforces were sometimes referred to as the green-water navy, in contrast to the blue-water carrier battlegroups. This distinction disappeared as increasing threats in coastal waters forced the amphibious ships further offshore, delivering assaults by helicopter and tiltrotor from over the horizon. This prompted the development of ships designed to operate in such waters - the Zumwalt class destroyer and the littoral combat ships. Rubel has proposed redefining green water as those areas of ocean which are too dangerous for high-value units, requiring offensive power to be dispersed into smaller vessels such as submarines that can use stealth and other characteristics to survive. Under his scheme brown water would be zones in which ocean-going units could not operate at all, including rivers, minefields, straits and other choke points.
On August 8, 2011, NCSA announced that IBM had terminated its contract to provide hardware for the project, and would refund payments to date.Cray Inc. then was awarded a $188 million contract with the University of Illinois to build the supercomputer for the Blue Waters project; the supercomputer was installed in phases in 2012.
Performance
Blue Waters runs science and engineering code at sustained speeds of at least one petaFLOPS. It has 1.5PB of memory, 25PB of disk storage, and up to 500PB of tape storage. The file system running on this storage will be the Cray Lustre parallel file system, which is capable of terabyte-per-second storage bandwidth. It will be connected with 300 Gbit/s wide area links.
The Enchanted is a 1950 English adaptation by Maurice Valency of the play Intermezzo written in 1933 by French dramatist Jean Giraudoux.
Original productions
Intermezzo was translated into English as The Enchanted by Maurice Valency, in Jean Giraudoux, Four Plays, vol. 1 (1958), and by Roger Gellert, in Jean Giraudoux, Plays, vol. 2 (1967).
The Enchanted (simplified Chinese: 浴女图) is considered the ninth Malaysian production by MediaCorp Studios Malaysia. Filming began in 2012 and took place in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. It made its debut in Singapore on 15 August 2013, though it first aired in Malaysia's Astro Shuang Xing on 9 May 2013.
The series is a feminine drama on the coming of age of women, set in the backdrop of the tourism industry, and a contemporary drama on the business world fusing gourmet food, fragrant wine, scenic spots and beautiful women.
Plot
Set against the backdrop of the tourism industry, the contemporary drama series tell the story of five women whose friendships are destroyed because of the fears that reside deep within each of these women. Their story revolves around a painting titled "The Enchanted", and the lesson they will learn is that material gains bring both satisfaction and dissatisfaction.
Cast
Trivia
This drama is the second Malaysian production to incorporate Singaporean elements after Break Free.

I keep this picture close to me to remind me how things used to be when we were just two happy little kids I wish that we could go back home back to a time before it all went wrong before the day I ran away and hid. Little sister I don't blame you for thinking I sold you down that river blue. I always wanted to protect you but I was too scared to and I was just a kid too. No matter how fast you run you end up where you started from to face the secret you were forced to keep Believe me when I say my friend I love you more than anything through the truth our lives will be released. I keep this picture close to me to remind me how things used to be
