Cases involving injuries to cruise ship passengers may include injuries, deaths, missing passengers who apparently fell in the ocean, passengers being hit by falling objects, food poisoning, being thrown by rough seas due to the neglect of the captain and nearly every other conceivable type of injury possible on land can exist on cruise ships. Injuries also occur when passengers leave the ship to visit ports of call. Cruise ships arrange and promote tours, trips, scuba, fishing and other activities and sometimes they do not check out or monitor the safety of these companies that provide the services the cruise ship sells to the passengers.
Poy Sippi is a town in Waushara County, Wisconsin, United States. The population was 972 at the 2000 census. According to the Poy Sippi Public Library website The Pine River was called "Poygan Sippi" by Potawatomie Indians, because it flowed into Poygan Lake. The name was contracted to Poy Sippi. It is said to be a corruption of an Indian word meaning "Sioux river. " [Source: The Romance of Wisconsin Place Names. ] Poy Sippi has often been described as a "little Swiss village" because of its location between two high hills. During any season, one cannot help but be aware of the beauty of these tree-covered hills when driving into Poy Sippi from either a north or south direction.
