 No good deed goes unpunished.  A Florida sea tow captain saved a man from a burning ship only to be shoved overboard and have his boat stolen. This shocking incident occurred near Marco Island on March 6th. On that date, a call went out regarding a burning boat. The captain of a sea tow boat heard the distress call and rushed to provide aid. He was able to quickly locate the burning boat and  discovered 40-year-old, Ryan Deiter, and his dog onboard the burning ship. Wasting no time, the captain of the sea tow boat was able to maneuver alongside the distressed boat and begin efforts to extricate Deiter and his dog from the doomed vessel.  Eventually, the sea tow captain was able to pull both Deiter and his dog onboard the tow boat. However, once Deiter was pulled to safety, he repaid a stranger's kindness with treachery.  Deiter shoved the captain from his own boat and fled the scene in the stolen boat, leaving the man who had just risked his own vessel and life...

 LASRAB BEGINS DIGITIZATION OF RECORDS TO SAFEGUARD CULTURAL HERITAGE


The Director-General of the Lagos State Records and Archives Bureau (LASRAB), Ms. Toyin Ogunlana has revealed that the ongoing comprehensive digitization of the Agency’s records is a strategic effort to preserve and enhance access to the rich historical and governmental heritage of Lagos State.


Speaking during an interview in her office on Monday, Ms. Ogunlana emphasised that the initiative is a forward-thinking move designed to safeguard the State’s cultural memory and historical legacy.


Describing digitization as “the way to go” in today’s digital age, she noted that digital storage ensures the safety and longevity of historical documents, making vital information readily accessible to researchers, students, government institutions, and the general public.


“This project is about preserving our past for the benefit of future generations,” she said. “We are not only protecting these records from deterioration or loss, but also making them available at the click of a button for those who need them.”


She added that LASRAB is working in partnership with historical and educational institutions to ensure the digitization process adheres to global standards and supports academic research. The project also includes the restoration of fragile and ageing documents of significant historical importance to Lagos State.


According to her, one of the core objectives is to create a robust digital repository that will serve as a reliable reference point for government operations, legal documentation, developmental milestones, and the State’s cultural evolution.


Ms. Ogunlana also encouraged public participation, stating that LASRAB welcomes partnerships with individuals and institutions who may possess valuable historical materials that can enhance the archive.


“History is a collective asset,” she said. “We invite anyone with relevant materials to come forward. This digitization project is not limited to government records - it is about preserving the collective memory of our people.”


The digitization effort will span from the colonial era to present-day developments. Upon completion, LASRAB plans to provide secure, user-friendly online access to the digitized materials for both local and global users.
