St. John's, Newfoundland – Bordered by three oceans, Canada is home to the longest coastline in the world. Our marine resources support hundreds of thousands of middle class jobs and rich ecosystems of abundant marine wildlife from coast to coast to coast. Today, federal, provincial and territorial fisheries Ministers committed to making sure they are sustainably managed in a way that supports the economic prosperity of communities across Canada.
The Canadian Council of Fisheries and Aquaculture Ministers (CCFAM) met in St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador, and over the past two days had productive discussions about their shared priorities and goals. Minister of Fisheries, Oceans and the Canadian Coast Guard, the Honourable Jonathan Wilkinson, and Minister of Fisheries and Land Resources for Newfoundland and Labrador, the Honourable Gerry Byrne, co-chaired the meeting attended by their counterparts and representatives from all provinces and territories.
The fish and seafood sector is important to our national food security, and to the jobs and livelihoods of hundreds of coastal, rural and Indigenous communities in Canada, employing approximately 80,000 people. Canada exported $6.9 billion worth of fish and seafood in 2017, of which about 65% went to the United States. Ministers renewed their commitment to developing new trading opportunities, and further promoting markets that have opened up through new trade agreements.
They launched the new $42.85 million Canadian Fish and Seafood Opportunities Fund. This cost-shared fund (70% federal and 30% provincial/territorial) will promote market access and development for the fish and seafood industry, thereby increasing fish and seafood exports, growing well-paid middle class jobs and supporting coastal and inland communities.
Aquaculture was a key topic of conversation. Ministers directed officials to develop federal legislation with limited scope that respects federal, provincial and territorial jurisdiction and provides greater clarity to the sector. Such federal legislation would continue to ensure that Canada's aquaculture industry is a global leader in producing high-quality aquaculture products in an environmentally sustainable manner.
CCFAM members recognized the challenges facing our oceans and other bodies of water – including plastic pollution, abandoned or lost ghost gear, and climate change – and agreed that greater collaboration is needed among industry, Indigenous communities, not-for-profit organizations and others to ensure that this rich resource is available for future generations. The Ministers also discussed Canada's endangered whale populations and the substantial federal investments to enhance their protection.
All CCFAM members agreed on the importance of marine conservation and engaging with Indigenous communities and stakeholders during the planning and development of marine protection initiatives. CCFAM Ministers noted Canada has met the 2017 target of 5% marine conservation and is on track to meet the 10% 2020 commitment; recognizing the balance between the environment and the economy.
They also discussed how to increase collaboration, respect Indigenous rights and better incorporate Indigenous knowledge in the decision-making process. Furthermore, they discussed the need to improve the quality of life in Indigenous communities and take meaningful steps to advance reconciliation.
Ministers are also determined to work together to combat the spread of aquatic invasive species that continue to have significant impacts on some of Canada's native fish stocks, as well as a number of our marine food producing sectors.
Finally, the table discussed the implementation of the new Fisheries Act and agreed to continue to work together on new policy and regulatory tools. CCFAM will meet again in Saskatchewan in 2019.

Q: Install MySQL on Mac OS X Lion? I have downloaded the MySQL community server and extracted the files from the .tar file. But how do I install it? I simply cannot find a easy way to to this, or any method for that matter. Or is it already installed after tar xvf MySQL.tar? And also, when installing the .pkg version, shouldn't it create the files anywhere? Finally, the community server is the one used with django right?
Thanks in advance!

A: I would suggest using the .dmg version. It's an easier way of installing mysql, it can be a pain http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/mysql/

A: If you are developing and testing, do you really need to use MySQL? You can use sqlite which is bundled with Python.
As Vezu suggested, the best way to get started with the server is to download the binary installer - the mysql-5.5.24-osx10.6-x86.dmg file.
If you plan to use it with Python, you will also need to install MySQLdb for OSX. For that, see this answer for a link to steps you need to follow.

It is planned to release movie on screens in the end of March, 2017 in USA.
What a strange question: "Is there life after death?" Generally, where a man took the concept of "life after death"? After all, if we start from the theory of evolution, the person himself appeared on earth and human's life – it's just a series of specific interrelated chemical reactions. When the reaction stops, stops the life. But the question is: why the person is able to think about what in principle should not to think? Let see it in the example of a fish. It currently floats in the water and it is no question: why water is so wet? Water is its natural habitat, so the fish is absolutely normal that the water is wet. Now look at the person. If he is self-educated and gives life to himself, that, first, there should be no concept of good and evil for him, because it should be seen as a natural habitat and even more so person should not distinguish that the good is good and evil – it's bad. Secondly, a self-sufficient person should not, in principle, think about life after death, because Death is a natural consequence of existence.
But the fact is that people distinguish between good and evil, and is able to think about eternity. Question: How does he know about it? Who gave man a conscience, so he knows what is wrong and what is right?
Friends, if a person knows what is bad and what is good, there must be someone who would have say him this and put this program into him.
The body is clear – it is mortal, but with other components – in spirit and soul everything is different. They were eternal, as they were originally created. That is why the human soul longs for eternity and wants to live forever.
These facts support the hundreds of thousands of witnesses who have experienced clinical death and were out of body. Subsequently, they accurately describe all procedures that have been produced with their body, and could recount what happened in neighboring rooms and wards, even talked about who and what kind of clothes was wearing. All this confirms that the information is not stored in the brain, but outside it, or how a person could learn the information, which was behind the operating walls? But not only learn but also remember. Scientists have no explanation for these facts, because for them there is a priori no life after death. Therefore, they are trying to either gloss over these facts, or tell any delirium, trying to explain these things. If we accept that there is life after death, it means that we did not evolve from monkeys, and everything is not so easy with a man. It is necessary to recognize that God created us, and the Bible is right!
The movie The Discovery trailer is now you can watch on the YouTube.
The Discovery 2017 movie release date is scheduled on 31st of March, 2017 in USA.

To help you learn a little more about the podcast we've devised this guide to our segments. As with any other podcast we have our quirks and eccentricities, so if you're wondering why Emma Watson gets referenced by us far too much, then look no further:
Shag, Marry or Kill? : This segment is our cinematic version of the game. We choose one film from the week we'd "shag" (have a one night-stand with, or essentially watch right now), one we'd "marry" (so watch every week for the rest of our lives), and one we'd kill (destroy all the cinematic negatives of so it doesn't exist). Sometimes it's an easy choice, sometimes politics get in the way as certain very good films have very little rewatch value, and occasionally we have the "double homicide", but this is our way of comparing the week's releases.
Red Light District: The Red Light District is far less raunchy a segment than its title would suggest. Essentially it's when we take the opportunity to "pimp" a film that people may not have seen and should check out if they can. It's not our most regular segment, but whenever we get a chance to be positive this one's always a welcome addition.
The Joe Wright Rant: The Joe Wright Rant of the Week is less of a segment than the moment when Pete realises he's gone off into a rant of disbelief about something. Of course, being Pete, he isn't even actually quoting Joe Wright's infamous BAFTA speech correctly, where Britain's towering directorial genius (too much? :P) took the classy road vis-a-vis Keira Knightley's snub for "Pride and Prejudice" and said "I don't know what she's not doing here tonight". Regardless, whenever we're struck dumb by something that is incomprehensible to us and we catch ourselves mid-sentence … that's The Joe Wright Rant of the Week.
*The Watson Factor : The Watson Factor came about following a comment of Pete's at the end of episode 19 that the amount of good looking women in the films we'd discussed was so ridiculous that Emma Watson (who was in "The Perks of Being a Wallflower" that week) could well be the 5th best looking woman "on show". Never ones to resist the opportunity to be superficial, thereafter we created the week's "Watson Factor", which is the number where Emma would fit against this particular week's feminine competition. Essentially, the higher the number, the more insane it is, but she usually holds her own quite well.
*The Olsen Factor : In May 2014, The Watson Factor was declared defunct and the baseline was replaced by Elizabeth Olsen in "Godzilla."
**The Pootsition : In Dec. 2014, The Olsen Factor was declared defunct and the baseline was replaced by Imogen Poots in "Jimi: All Is By My Side".
*The Poupaud Range : A few weeks after the creation of The Watson factor, we balanced out the gender equality following Cal's discovery of French actor Melvil Poupaud's dashingness. Quick to pick up on this, Pete instituted "The Poupaud Range" in order to gauge the week's relative male attractiveness using Melvil as the baseline. For some unknown reason Pete repeatedly insists on adding a ".0" after the score, otherwise it works exactly the same way as The Watson Factor.
*The Isaac Range : In May 2014, The Poupaud Range was declared defunct and the baseline was replaced by Oscar Isaac in "The Two Faces of January".
**The Garrett Gauge : In Dec. 2014, The Isaac Range was declared defunct and the baseline was replaced by Garrett Hedlund in "Unbroken".
The Seydoux Clause : This is a clarification that was initiated after Cal disputed Pete's inclusion of Lea Seydoux (in Sister) over Watson because of how she looked in that particular film. The Seydoux Clause, following on from that, is that someone who would normally be higher than Emma or Melvil may be dropped below using this justification. This will also include Watson and Poupaud themselves when we review their future films, which is yet to happen.
The Hathaway Protocol: The Hatha way Protocol has become a necessary offshoot of the Watson Factor as Pete took to using the Seydoux Clause based on short hair cuts, which he's not a fan of (it's less of an issue for Cal). So having such an obvious example of a woman making herself look terrible by cropping the locks as Anne Hathaway gave us in "Les Miserables", The Hathaway Protocol was born so the purity of the Seydoux Clause could remain intact.
The Saldana Situation: This segment came into fruition in episode 85 when Pete reviewed Scott Cooper's small-town drama "Out of the Furnace." Pete objected so heavily to Zoe Saldana's character in the film that it prevented her from usurping Emma Watson in that week's Watson Factor, leading to the stipulation that any actor or actress who would normally be ahead based on appearance alone but is negated by the nature of their on-screen role is the victim of a "Saldana Situation."
The Bell Boost: This rare and infrequent rule was devised in episode 116 when Lake Bell, hampered by a rather thankless role as Jon Hamm's love interest in "Million Dollar Arm," managed to seduce both he and Pete with her dazzling charisma (Bell achieved this with the use of a sari, which is often Pete's weakness.) Effectively the inversion of The Saldana Situation, any elevation of an actor or actress through sheer will of personality and charm above perceived appearance deficits could lead to them receiving a Bell Boost.
The Huston Factor: Often the bane of the podcast, Danny Huston's lowest moment came in episode 42 when, in useless Nicholas Cage vehicle "Stolen," he donned a stunningly misjudged bowler hat which made him look like a bad Charlie Chaplin impersonator. It was then proclaimed that any costuming faux-pas, regardless of whether it affects any of the other segments, would be deemed a Huston Problem, honouring the dishonour of Danny Huston's dreadful attire.
The Christie Clanger: It's fair to say that in the course of several years we've had our share of factual mishaps on the podcast, but we rarely get pulled up on them. However, when Cal reviewed "Lilting," in episode 110 he referred to actress Naomi Christie's Leeds accent, leading to an entire digression on Pete's time at university there amid its interesting nightlife. Much to Cal's embarrassment, it was left to Naomi herself to correct him via Twitter, revealing that she was in fact from Manchester and not Leeds. In episode 111 it was then decided that such a calamitous error would forever be known as a Christie Clanger. Incidentally, we have yet to discuss the benefits of Manchester's nightlife.

Carluccio's to no longer publish like-for-like sales figures
Carluccio's, the all-day Italian café and retail concept, is joining La Tasca in moving away from like-for-like sales figures.
It argues that such numbers can be easily manipulated.
In its first set of results since listing on the Alternative Investment Market in December, the company has instead focused on cash return on capital invested which it said was continuing to be in excess of 60%.
During the 26 weeks of the results period to 26 March, the company saw store turnover rise by 21% to £21.6m. Adjusted earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation were also up 21% to £2.6m.
The target set at flotation of having five stores opened is all but complete with four open and one, in Richmond, West London, under construction.
During the period there were two openings outside of London at Brighton and Oxford.
The company said it would remain focused on the South-east "while gradually extending our geographical reach to locations throughout the country".
Carluccio's goes smoke free >>
Carluccio's to float >>

Q: Can entities outside of an event E's light cone be influenced by a proxy entity that is inside the light cone of said event E I apologize upfront if my question is poorly worded but I am trying to understand conceptually events and light cones.
Say for example that there is a celestial body B that I am capable of observing in some measurable fashion.
If this body B is on the edge or boundary of an event E's light cone and I am outside of the light cone for event E then am I able to ascertain any kind of observable influence on the example celestial body B by event E ?
Thank you.

A: No. The (future) light cone of an event E is the set of points in spacetime that E can send a signal to. If E could influence B in such a way that you could observe that effect on B, then E can send a signal to you. But by assumption you are outside the light cone of E, so this is not possible.

August 14, 2018, Inuvik, Northwest Territories – Inuit Tapiriit Kanatami (ITK) and the Inuvialuit Regional Corporation (IRC) will present a series of awards this evening recognizing the contributions and achievements of Inuvialuit. Each year these awards are presented in the region that hosts the ITK annual general meeting. This year's awards presentation includes the 2018 Inuit Cultural Repatriation Award.
This award recognizes individuals and organizations that have taken steps to repatriate Inuit intellectual or cultural property, or other items that hold significance for our people. The Inuvialuit Cultural Resource Centre (ICRC), together with the Anglican Church General Synod Archives and Dr. Val Marie Johnson of Saint Mary's University are receiving the award for repatriating copies of archival materials from St. John's Eskimo Residential School at Shingle Point, Yukon. Shingle Point is an Inuvialuit whaling and fishing site that today forms part of the Inuvialuit Settlement Area.


So the first official photo from Suicide Squad, a movie which I don't really cover, was released. It was of Jared Leto's Joker and the picture seems weird, almost as if it could be an April Fool's Day prank.
Honestly, the first thing wrong is that he's not smiling but screaming or something. Then it's the tattoo that says damaged on his forehead. That's just wrong. Everything else is to perfection and I can get over the scream, but the 'damaged' ruins it for me.


Preventative maintenance is a check on your AC system, once a year or twice a year, in order to ensure that it's in top working order. Checks are usually done in the fall for heating and in the spring for air conditioning. Preventative maintenance on your HVAC system will help make sure it lasts longer, provide cost savings and will keep you comfortable year round.
What Will a Technician Do?
With preventative maintenance, a professional will come in and look at your system and check controls and connections. They will take a look at the area and the ductwork and help ensure proper airflow. If they notice any issue, they will go ahead and fix it or schedule a repair. Many times with preventative maintenance checks, an issue is caught early before it turns into a larger repair need. Technicians will look at the thermostat settings and help you get optimal heating and cooling, as well as improvements on your energy bills. When you have a preventative maintenance contract with a company, many times, they will offer you a discount on parts needed in order to repair your system and you will also get priority service for these repairs.
What Should Homeowners Take Care Of?
There is some preventative maintenance that homeowners can do on their own. This includes buying high-efficiency filters and changing them at least every 90 days. High-efficiency filters will remove more particles. Homeowners should keep the units free of leaves and other debris and keep about two feet of space around heating and cooling units. You can get away with replacing the filter every 90 days but check it monthly to see if it looks dark or clogged. If you have pets, you should replace it monthly.
Preventative maintenance has a lot of benefits. With proper maintenance, you will have fewer repairs because small repairs can be caught before an expensive repair or a whole system replacement is necessary. Your system will operate safer. For example, a crack in your heating unit could be discovered during a routine check that could otherwise leak dangerous carbon monoxide into your home. With checks, your system will run more efficiently, which means that you will have lower energy bills. You will save even more money on having your equipment last longer.
At Butler Heating & Air Conditioning, you can purchase a preventative maintenance agreement that includes a spring and fall check for heating and cooling, as well as discounts on repairs and priority service. Butler Heating & Air Conditioning is located in Dayton, OH, and services many locations in the Miami Valley. Contact us today!

As turbines rise, small-scale fishermen have the most to lose
Credit: By Miriam Wasser and Benjamin Storrow | WBUR | October 14, 2021 | www.wbur.org ~~
A fisherman steers his trawler through the predawn darkness, past the outlines of multistory motor yachts, sleek pleasure boats and a U.S. Coast Guard cutter. When he was a boy, people told him to go into fishing. The harder you work, the more money you will make, they'd say.
He isn't so sure anymore.
The twin diesel motors groan and the trawler pushes out beyond the harbor break into Long Island Sound. The ocean is calm. The summer sun rises in a cloudless sky. A large reel whines, and a 250-foot net unspools into the water. David Aripotch is 65, a weathered man with gray hair, just tall enough to see over the helm. He has been fishing for almost a half century, but he still gets excited every time the net is lifted from the ocean.
It's all the other things that eat at him. The federal fishing quotas that sometimes make him steam as far south as North Carolina to catch fish he can find off Long Island. The mind-boggling expenses of running a fishing boat: $5,000 a month for insurance, $30,000 for a new net, $60,000 for a paint job.
Worst of all are the wind farms.
"There's so many things going against you as a commercial fisherman in the United States," he says. "And now these wind farms, it's almost like that's the final nail in the coffin."
'They're all true depending on where you sit'
Offshore wind is a critical component of President Biden's climate strategy, but it has met fierce resistance from fishermen like Aripotch. They fear installing thousands of massive turbines in the ocean could displace them from their fishing grounds and sink their industry.
The conflict is a vivid illustration of the tradeoffs involved in confronting climate change.
Biden and other supporters say offshore wind can deliver a surge of clean electricity and slash greenhouse gas emissions. But many fishing captains worry the turbines could alter the ocean in unexpected and irreparable ways. Last month, a commercial fishing group filed a lawsuit challenging the federal permit issued to Vineyard Wind I, the country's first planned development.
Efforts are being made to address those concerns. In New York, one company sat down with local fishermen to discuss turbine placement. Developers working off New England will space their turbines one nautical mile apart to ease navigation. In fact, federal regulators selected many wind development areas specifically because they were less popular with fishermen.
But fishermen say those concessions fall short. U.S. regulators plan to allow fishing inside wind developments, but many captains worry it's only a matter of time before a boat wrecks on a turbine and they're banned from wind areas. They also contend the government has underestimated the value of fishing grounds and plowed ahead with new projects.
The truth may lie somewhere in between.
"Many fishermen will not see a big impact, but fishermen who do may see a very large impact," says Chris McGuire, director of the marine program of the Nature Conservancy's Massachusetts chapter. "That's a hard part about this. You hear disparate opinions. And I think this is one of those situations where they're all true depending on where you sit."
Can wind and fishing mix?
Montauk sits at the easternmost tip of Long Island. It has long been a popular summer destination for wealthy New Yorkers, but for decades it also has boasted a small fishing community that scrapes out a living amid the expensive vacation homes.
Aripotch arrived in town in 10th grade and went to work for a gillnetter. By that time, he was skipping school to go fishing. His parents, as he recalled, didn't put up too much resistance. He loved the water, and they figured he was better off fishing than in jail.
A fisherman could earn a good living in those days. Aripotch bought his first boat in high school: a 20-foot, flat-bottomed skiff for clamming and scalloping. He earned enough money to trade up, eventually settling on a 64-foot trawler in 2006. He named it the Caitlin & Mairead, after his two youngest daughters.
Aripotch primarily fishes a swath of ocean that stretches from Nantucket to New Jersey. Now, the area is primed for wind power. Developers hold nine leases south of Martha's Vineyard and Nantucket in an area the size of Rhode Island.
"They're talking about putting the majority of this garbage in that area, and I need all the grounds I got now to make a living," Aripotch says.
Federal regulators settled on this stretch of water as a compromise. The winds there are strong, and turbines can't be seen from Cape Cod and the Islands. They hoped to avoid the type of conflicts that doomed Cape Wind.
It's also an area that draws fewer fisherman than other coastal waters. Federal data show that $8.6 million worth of longfin squid was hauled in between 2010 and 2019 in the nine leases south of New England, making it the top caught species in the area. That's small potatoes in the grand scheme of commercial fishing. Less than 3% of the total U.S. longfin squid catch came from the wind areas off New England during that period.
But fishermen say the government's count grossly underestimates their catch and the area's importance to captains like Aripotch. Those fish have helped earn him enough money to pay for numerous boats, send his daughters to college and build a house in Montauk.
His neighbors joke that it's the house that scup built.
Federal regulators say they have listened to fishermen throughout the permitting process for Vineyard Wind I. In the lease areas off New York, for instance, transit lanes will be included through wind areas and future leases will require developers to work with fishermen when crafting their projects.
"We really want commercial fishing and wind-energy development to coexist, because we believe that they can and that they both can thrive," says Amanda Lefton, who leads the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, the federal agency charged with permitting projects.
Relaying this sentiment to Aripotch produces a profane outburst.
In the wheelhouse of the Caitlin & Mairead, where a bumper sticker reading "President Trump: Make Commercial Fishing Great Again!" adorns a stairwell, Aripotch says federal regulators and wind developers have offered symbolic gestures.
His wife, Bonnie Brady, chimes in. In her eyes, the federal government has already decided to "industrialize the ocean" – fishermen be damned.
Brady leads the Long Island Commercial Fishing Association and has been among the most outspoken critics of offshore wind. Aripotch, who affectionately refers to her as "Bon Quixote," adds that the rush to build wind farms is especially galling because it follows decades of conservation efforts to rebuild fish stocks.
He opposed federal fishing quotas, but spent money on new nets anyway to spare declining species. And while he concedes that conservation efforts have helped certain fisheries rebound, he feels like the government is repaying him by taking away his fishing grounds.
As for fishing in the wind farms, he's pessimistic. The tip of Aripotch's net sometimes trails as far as 1,500 feet behind his boat. This summer, he snagged a monitoring device used by a wind developer to study the local fishery, shredding a new squid net in the process. He thinks maneuvering around a wind turbine is a recipe for disaster, especially in a strong tide and heavy winds.
"To say that we can just fish in the wind farms, that's a fallacy," he says. "It is not going to happen."
Warmer waters, different fish
Not all fishermen are opposed to offshore wind. For recreational fishing captains like Paul Eidman, turbines in the water are a boon for business.
Finding fish isn't as easy as it used to be for Eidman. As the ocean warms, fish are increasingly absent at his go-to locations. Today, he racks up miles on his boat, Reel Therapy, guiding recreational fishermen in search of striped bass, bluefish and albacore along the coast of New Jersey.
Eidman thinks the turbines could be a fish magnet – that's what seems to have happened at the Block Island Wind Farm off Rhode Island. The underwater sections of those five turbines are encrusted with barnacles, mussels and other marine life, offering food for fish. The area has become popular with recreational fishermen, and Eidman is eager to have turbines off New York.
There's another reason he supports offshore wind. For fishing to succeed in the long run, he thinks the world needs to confront climate change, and that means supporting renewable energy. But that view has made Eidman a pariah among commercial fishermen – he's lost friends and been called a "turncoat" to his face.
"Every single fisherman, whether they admit it or not, whether they are recreational or commercial, sees climate change and the effects of climate change on the water every single day," Eidman says.
Science confirms that sentiment. A 2015 study found the Gulf of Maine, north of the wind developments proposed today, was warming faster than 99% of the global ocean, leading to increased mortality among the region's cod. Lobsters are becoming rare in southern New England while Jonah crab and black sea bass, species traditionally found further south, are more common.
"The warming is just really pronounced," says Glen Gawarkiewicz, an oceanographer at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution. "After the Arctic, this might be the second-most rapidly warming region in the world."
Joe Southall, the fisheries liaison at Mayflower Wind, says developers take fishermen's concerns seriously. His company is planning a wind project 23 miles south of Nantucket, and he fields emails and phone calls from fishermen at all hours.
Southall thinks much of the opposition stems from uncertainty around offshore wind. He tries to provide details to help fishermen understand the project and incorporate their feedback where possible.
"We have designed all elements of our project – from the layout, to the lease area, to how things are going to be built, to the cable – with the fishing industry and their concerns in mind," he says.
'There's already jobs that are here'
If Montauk represents a small fishing community, New Bedford is at the other end of the spectrum. The city is the scalloping capital of America. In 2019, its fishermen caught $450 million worth of fish, making it the top grossing port in the country.
Some 6,800 people in New Bedford work on the city's fishing vessels, or with food processors, seafood vendors, fuel suppliers and boat builders.
Cassie Canastra is one of them.
Canastra, 31, works at the New Bedford scallop auction. In mid-July, she can be found at a desk inside an overly air conditioned warehouse. Three men sit before her, silently watching numbers tick by on a flat screen television. The numbers represent bids on their catch.
When a captain sees a good bid appear on the screen, he flashes a thumbs up to Canastra, who conveys the information to a co-worker over a small headset.
Canastra's father and uncle started the auction, but she fears for its future.
Many of the fishermen here are concerned that wind projects will occupy prime scalloping grounds south of New York. Fishermen caught $18.7 million of scallops in one area slated for wind development near Long Island between 2010 and 2019. That's more than all the squid caught in the lease areas off New England, but still less than 1% of the U.S. scallop catch.
Scalloping is subject to stringent federal regulations that were built on years of planning, Canastra says. Wind power, she adds, jeopardizes all the efforts to protect the scallop.
"It's terrifying to me because it would be devastating to see a whole resource just go away," Canastra says. "They want to create more jobs with offshore wind, but there's already jobs that are here."
Farewell, fishermen?
Experts say New Bedford's scallop industry is relatively well-positioned to navigate the changes from offshore wind. Many of the boats in New Bedford are owned by corporations and capable of sailing to George's Bank, a fertile fishing ground where no wind developments have been proposed.
Investing in new fishing gear or making a long trip to George's Bank is harder for a family-owned operation like Aripotch's.
On the Caitlin & Mairead, deckhands are preparing to reel in the catch. The boat's motors strain to lift the net from the ocean. A silvery, flapping mass of squid, porgies, flounder, menhaden, and butterfish is raised above the boat and dumped onto the deck with a splatter.
One deckhand begins shoveling fish onto a conveyor belt as another sorts squid and places them into bushel baskets. The squid are lowered down into the hold, packed into cardboard boxes and covered in ice. The other fish, most of them now dead, are flushed overboard with a hose.
Aripotch watches from the wheelhouse. He points to one of the deckhands below, who has helped on the boat since he was a teenager. He'd make an excellent fishing captain, Aripotch says. But the young man recently took a job on a private yacht.
"Why would a young kid invest a million dollars to buy a business, and he knows that he's going to be fighting access to the ocean, fighting for rights to fish, rising fuel prices," Aripotch asks. "In 20 years, it's going to be nobody, virtually no owner-operators, left."
His generation, he predicts, will be the last of Montauk fishermen.

However, in women the punishment is found to be equal to the advantages. Another examine means that more physically enticing individuals are considerably extra doubtless on common to earn significantly higher wages.

People make judgments of bodily attractiveness based mostly on what they see, but in addition on what they know about the person.
Relationships In Thailand Part eight
Although some women are not good at them, they still benefit from this stereotype when on the lookout for a farang husband," added Supitchaya. Despite all of the components that help Thai women and westerners begin relationships, there are also some illusions about Thai women that please their counterparts. However, social media doesn't be sure that women could have farang boyfriends. "It is like common match-making where each people have to fulfill one another's requirements in order to start a relationship," she stated.
For example, attributable to their Lao origins individuals from Isan are stereotyped by the central Thai as being 'backward' and 'undeveloped'. Rungreangkulkij, Somporn; Kotnara, Ingkata; Rujiraprasert, Nilubol; and Khuandee, Napaphat .

The April 2006 basic election was boycotted by the principle opposition parties. Thaksin's celebration won once more, but the election was declared invalid by the Constitutional Court. During the final 12 months of the second Thaksin government, the Thai GDP grew by 5.1 percent.
Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva spoke about the Government's assist for the roles of Thai women in his opening remarks at a forum for political events to current their visions on the promotion of gender equality and women's participation in politics. The Government has recognized the important roles that Thai women have taken on, and it has a policy to ensure gender equality and supply them with higher opportunities in all areas. The Thai woman in her 20s has expertise working in Japan with Japanese folks in Thailand. She felt that there was one thing odd when it got here to the Japanese way of working. Don't get me wrong, plenty of Thai women I know are in happy relationships, simply not that many in Bangkok.

(Cambodia ranked number one for low price of dwelling for 2018.) On total scores for International Living's 10 components, Thailand got here in 14th (Costa Rica was first; Vietnam ranked twenty third of 24).

"It helps that Thais are inclined to defer to these, regardless of which intercourse, [who've] the social standing of being in cost," said Pim. When the situation calls for it, Thai women can also be efficient agents of peace, as caring peacekeepers and peacebuilders. We had been pleased to see the function of female peacekeepers mentioned in a number of components of the Secretary-General's report.

The median 31-12 months-old male person searches for ladies aged 22 to 35, whereas the median 42-yr-old male searches for women 27 to 45. The age skew is even greater with messages to different users; the median 30-year-old male messages teenage girls as often as women his own age, while mostly ignoring women a number of years older than him.
Thailand is a top retirement destination because of its natural beauty, favorable local weather, and its reasonably priced value of living and healthcare.

Bob Dylan, Cover versions, Emmylou Harris
The Best Dylan Covers: Emmylou Harris – Every Grain of Sand
April 11, 2015 Hallgeir	1 Comment
Every Grain of Sand" is a song written by Bob Dylan, recorded in May 1981 and originally released the following August on Dylan's album Shot of Love. It was subsequently included on the compilation Biograph. An early version of the song, recorded in September 1980 and featuring Jennifer Warnes on backing vocal, was released in 1991 on The Bootleg Series Volumes 1-3 (Rare & Unreleased) 1961-1991. To me it sounds like and feels like a hymn.
Emmylou Harris recorded the song for her album Wrecking Ball in 1995. It is not better than Dylan's version, but it is one of those rare covers that is up there with the original. The album is fantastic and Harrison requested Lanois services after hearing his work on Dylan's Oh Mercy as well as Lanois's own album Acadie.
Every Grain of Sand sung by Emmylou Harris is a masterpiece.
"The arrangement of Dylan's "Every Grain Of Sand", which originally closed Dylan's 1981's Shot Of Love – and sounded like Dylan was making it up as he went, in a shed – is similarly polished: again, Harris plays against it with a haunted, almost cracking vocal which amplifies the song's vulnerability (in company with Sheryl Crow, she sang "Every Grain Of Sand" at Johnny Cash's funeral in 2003). "

Every Grain Of Sand – Emmylou Harris (live 2012 with Daniel Lanois):
"It was, simply, a watershed. Emmylou Harris, with her song sense, acute rhythm guitar playing and set-on-stun gift as a vocal gut-leveler, was suddenly free to find the essence of her gift. The result was an album that shimmered like an oasis in the distance—only this wasn't some illusionary notion. The music was real, nubby and incandescent without being filmy enough to see through."

Bitcoin BTC – Should You Keep Holding?
Two weeks ago, we witnessed a failure of the bitcoin under resistance. Since then, the most famous of the cryptocurrencies fell under the $ 6,500, with in addition a bearish momentum initiated yesterday, probably because of new sales from a large "whale".
As a reminder, the "whale" refers to a major investor who can push prices upward or downward because of the large size of his orders (i.e. the processed volumes). However, given the narrowness of the market and its low depth (a few thousand people hold alone nearly half of its overall capitalization), when a player of this magnitude is thus, better as a 'small fish' may not be against him.
In March, we had already talked about here the importance of these players. At this time, we see that the sales made by M.Overall, Kobayashi after the bankruptcy of Mt.Gox led bitcoin to "melt" $ 10,000 between December 2017 and last February.
In the middle of September, so it seems that a big 'bitcoin whale' happened again for sale, with about 100 M$ of movements that have not gone unnoticed. Several tracks were raised in an attempt to expose him, the name of "Silk Road" (a former black market of the darknet, closed last year) has been suggested, as the hypothesis of a "residue" of Mt.GOX, but the blur is still at this point.
On this aspect, I must admit have always a little hard to understand how you could not identify any particular operation. Indeed, should cryptocurrencies not be models of transparency and traceability?
Anyway, from a graphic point of view, the bitcoin has returned to its more down in the summer, just above the critical area of $6000 (in light blue).
Gold, courses which are less and less senior high (as is the case these past few months) and who fail to raise over a well-defined side area (around 5,800 / 6,000 so) lead me to distrust. Do me not bode for their chronic inability to reconnect with the $ 10,000 recently. So, I ask myself the question: will we actually head to these famous $ 4,000?

The very easy way to get a FREE cinema ticket for this weekend
Cinema goers in Beverley will be able to go to the cinema for just the price a Lotto ticket
James Andrews
Dan Kemp
Cinema lovers will be able to catch one of the latest movies for just the cost of a Lotto ticket thanks to a special deal this weekend.
An incredible 160,000 tickets are being handed out to Lotto players at 146 cinemas across the country - including Parkway Cinema in Beverley .
As long as the customer has bought a ticket this week they will be able to catch a film this Sunday.
As well as helping fund our athletes to compete in the Olympics , and creating 5,000 new millionaires, the National Lottery supports British cinema.
National Lottery ticket
Films as diverse as Early Man and Bend It Like Beckham have received help in the past from the Lottery, and on Sunday cinemas are saying thank you.
The National Lottery has helped fund the making of more than 500 films, which between them have won 14 Oscars and 43 BAFTAs, as well as helping the next generation of British filmmakers receive training through the BFI Film Academy.

"When you buy a Lotto ticket, you are directly helping the UK film industry. You help us make films, bring them to new audiences, and train and inspire the next generation of filmmakers," Idris Elba said in a thank you message to players.
The better news is that the thanks comes in the form of more than just words – with 160,000 cinema tickets being handed out to Lotto players at 146 cinemas nationwide, according to the Mirror .
How the deal works
To get your free cinema ticket, simply turn up in person at your local participating cinema and show them your Lotto ticket.
It needs to be bought this week - between September 26th and 29th, so there's still time to grab one – for the deal to work.

You can find out which cinemas are participating here , along with full terms and conditions.
Sadly, space is limited so it's being operated on a first come, first served basis.
You can see any film you want that isn't already fully booked - but tickets can't be booked in advance.
However, even if you miss out on a ticket on the day, you will be given access to BFI Player to stream a film at home.
"National Lottery Cinema Day has allowed us to say a big thank you to Lotto players across the UK because, without those players, some of the truly great British films may never have been made," said Niall O'Rourke, Camelot's Arts Partner for The National Lottery.

Beets Iron: Amount of Iron And Health Benefits
By - Subah Zareen
Beets are also known as beetroots, garden beet, table beet, or red beet. Aside from being cooked, beets can also be used as a salad, a side dish, a soup, or even as a pickle. Although beet is a seasonal vegetable, one can get this vegetable throughout the year.
Our main concern is with beets iron: Is beet rich in iron?
Beet is not high in iron. But a considerable amount of iron is present in beets. One cup of beet offers 1.1 mg of iron. This amount covers about 6 percent of your iron needs. A beet's taste isn't very appealing; it has a mild, earthy taste. Besides their taste, beets are rich in minerals and vitamins.
Read on to learn more.

7.4 Prevent Cancer:
7.5 Prevent Anemia:
8 Side Effects Of Beets
Beets Iron: High or Low?
Beets are not a very rich source of iron. But you can't say that beets are poor in iron. It provides a considerable amount of iron needed by a person per day. You can get almost 1.1 mg of iron from one cup of raw beets. This value can cover at least 6 percent of your daily iron requirement. If you want to learn this value in grams, then 100 grams of beet can provide about 0.8 mg of iron. As 100 grams of beet is less than one cup of beet, the iron content will decrease accordingly.
Although beets are a healthy source of iron, there is an additional point to be noted. Vegetables are usually not rich in iron. The vegetables high in iron also contain some iron absorption inhibitors in them. You can say that iron from iron-rich vegetables cannot be absorbed in the body by itself. Some vegetables which are high in iron also have vitamin C in them.
Vitamin C helps to increase the absorption of iron in the blood. Nevertheless, beets do not contain much vitamin C, so iron is difficult to absorb from them. One should have some other source of vitamin C with beet to maximize the absorption of iron.
Is Beet Juice High in Iron?
Beet juice is rich in iron. How much iron is in beet juice? One cup of beet juice can provide you with 1.44 mg of iron. This amount can cover at least 8 percent of daily iron needs. Beet juice has a pH that ranges from 5.3 to 6.6, making it slightly to moderately acidic. Beet juice is acidic, but that does not mean that it is harmful to health.
This juice is effective for maintaining blood pressure and weight loss. Can a patient suffering from gastric acid reflex consume beet juice? Beets are acidic but can produce alkalinity in the body, so a patient with acid reflux can drink beet juice. How to make beet juice? To get a delicious taste, you can simply grind some beets and add some spices to them.
Is Canned Beet High In Iron?
You might have heard that canned beets contain nearly the same amount of nutrients as fresh ones. But slight differences can occur in their nutritional value. Canned beets contain slightly less amount of iron as compared to fresh ones. But still, they are a healthy source of iron, covering some portion of the daily value of iron.
Is Cooked Beet High In Iron?
Beets are mostly consumed after cooking. The cooking procedure can increase the cooked beet iron content as compared to raw beets. About two cooked beets can provide you with almost 0.8 mg of iron. This amount provides you with 4.4 percent of your daily required value of iron.
Is Pickled Beet High In Iron?
Beets in the form of pickles are not a nutritious source of iron. The pickled beet iron content is negligible as compared to iron provided by raw beet. If you are thinking of getting enough iron from beet pickles, then this idea is not designed to work. You should replace your iron source with a healthier one.
Iron In Beet Green:
Beet greens are the leaves on top of beetroots that we throw away as waste, but they contain more iron than beetroots. Iron in beet greens is almost 3 times more than the iron in beetroot. From 3.5 oz of green beets, a female can get about 14 percent of her daily iron requirements and a male can get 32 percent.
You can add beet greens to your diet as a salad or as a starter. You can also consume beet greens after cooking. Cooking increases the iron content up to 2.7 mg per one cup of beet greens.
Are Beets Healthy?
Being rich in minerals and several vitamins, beets can offer many health benefits. Some benefits of eating beets are listed below:
Reduce Blood Pressure:
Beets can reduce blood pressure in our bodies because of their nitrates and folates. Nitrates after entering our body are converted into nitrate oxide. These oxides can relax the walls of blood vessels, thus reducing blood pressure. Nitrate oxides affect systolic pressure much more than diastolic pressure. Folates present in beets also lower the blood pressure in our bodies.
Increase Athlete's Efficiency:
Research suggests nutritional nitrates, such as those in beets, may boost athletic performance. As discussed earlier, nitrates are present in beets. Along with maintaining blood pressure, these nitrates can also increase the working capacity of mitochondria, thus producing more energy. More energy will increase the working ability of an athlete.
Beetroot juice may benefit athletes by improving their endurance, improving their cardiorespiratory performance, and improving their efficiency
Gut Health:
Fibers contain no nutrition in them. But they help to increase the efficiency of the gut in the digestion of food. The fiber content of beets is 3.4 grams per cup, making them a nutritious fiber source. Fibers can reduce the risk of constipation by making the stool softer, thus maintaining gut health.
Prevent Cancer:
Several other ingredients in beetroot are cancer-fighting, such as betaine, ferulic acid, rutin, and kaempferol. These anti-cancer compounds work mostly by inhibiting the growth of cancerous cells.
Prevent Anemia:
Beetroots are rich in iron. Iron is needed to form hemoglobin, a compound present in red blood cells responsible for transporting oxygen molecules throughout the body. By increasing the hemoglobin molecule, iron can increase the oxygen-carrying capacity of the blood, preventing anemia.
Side Effects Of Beets
Besides causing health benefits, beets can also cause side effects as listed below:
Beetroot consumption can cause kidney stones. A relatively high amount of oxalate is present in beetroot, which can accumulate to form kidney stones when taken in excess.
Beetroot is high in sugar as compared to other vegetables. It can increase the blood sugar level, leading to diabetes.
Beetroots can cause beeturia, which is a condition including the change of color of urine, mostly appearing pink-reddish. This is not a disorder, as it's due to a specific component named betanin, present in beetroot, that is responsible for the reddish color of beets.
Copper, iron, magnesium, and phosphorous are all present in high quantities in beets. These metals can accumulate in the liver and cause liver damage as well as pancreatic diseases when consumed in excess.
Question: Do beets increase the absorption of iron?
Answer: Beets are a healthy source of iron. But beets cannot increase the absorption of iron in the blood due to a deficiency of vitamin C in them. Vitamin C is needed to increase the efficiency of iron absorption in the blood.
Question: Which fruits and vegetables are high in iron?
Answer: Spinach, apricots, peas, mushrooms, squash, beans, coconuts, raspberries are all rich in iron. These fruits and vegetables cover most of our daily need for iron.
Question: Are beets good for iron deficiency?
Answer: Yes, beets are good for iron deficiency. One cup of beet offers 1.1 mg of iron, fulfilling 6 percent of the daily iron need of the body. Beetroots and beet greens combine to provide a complete source of iron, covering the body's iron needs.
Beet iron can fulfill a major portion of the daily required value of iron. Although beets are not very high in iron, they can serve as a healthy source of iron. Cooked beets, beet juice, and beet greens also offer a considerable amount of iron. Besides causing health benefits, beets can also cause some complications if taken in excess.

Absalon
AN EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW WITH OUR TEAM MANAGER AND BRAND AMBASSADOR.
Words by Christopher Wefing | Photos by Hoshi Yoshida & Luisa Freudenberg
Originally there were two 'Statue(s) of the Volunteer 1792', commissioned to commemorate the French revolution. One of the statues was melted down by the German forces in Paris during the second world war. The town Remiremont, nestling in the wooded hillsides, is home to the one remaining statue. This ancient, sleepy town is also the birthplace, (August 1980), of a unique French legend, Julien Absalon. As they say in english, they threw away the mould when they made Julien Absalon.
Having dominated XC racing for decades, Julien has become as much a part of the furniture in the mountain bike scene as motorhomes, shrill warm-up rollers and the clanging of cow-bells. Double Olympic Champion, five times World Champion at Elite, 14 times French Champion, five times European Champion, five times World Cup overall Champion with thirty-three World Cup wins, are just some of his decorations. You would struggle to find space on the biggest of motorhomes to list his results.
What is there left to write about Julien Absalon which hasn't already been written? We sat down with Julien for an exclusive interview to find out from the man himself, in his own words.
The atmosphere was one of anticipation going into the first European World Cup race of the season at Albstadt, Germany. How would the new team line ups perform? How would the short-track racing effect the XCO racing? And then, before the race weekend, Julien caught everyone off-guard: "I have decided to announce my retirement, I realise my pollen allergy has become worse and worse and so I have decided to stop and focus on my new management job." His relaxed matter of fact tone seems to suggest that there was no question of him continuing given how his allergy affects his performance, "…with this breathing problem, I cannot go at 100% of my capacity. So, I have decided to stop." Rather than turning inwards and wishing things had worked out differently, Julian, with characteristic resilience and energy, explains that "a new life is starting for me and I am happy, excited to discover it.
"
Switching to the race briefly, Julien discussed what it is about Albstadt which makes it special, "It's the most physical track of the season, two long, steep climbs and a fast downhill into the finish. There are always a lot of fans here. I like this kind of track. I was one of the best climbers and had some battles with Nino (Schurter) over the years.
"
Relaxing in the SRSUNTOUR team area, Julien becomes excited as he recalls some of the high and no so highlights of his career, "For sure my two victories at the Olympics, unforgettable moments and also my two victories in La Bresse, my home town. And if can say another one, (it's) the last time I won the World Championship in Norway, in 2014, nine years after winning four times in a row between 2004 and 2008. It was a special moment at 34 years old to win the World Championship ahead of Nino." As he says this you can't help but notice his justified pride in this particular result. On the other hand, he is also left with a bitter taste in his mouth as he recalls London 2012, "I had a flat tyre in London. It's difficult to accept a technical issue at the Olympics because you prepare for two to three years and in one moment you have a technical problem. I had good preparation for Rio, in 2016 I was on all the World Cup podiums but I got 8th position in the Olympics which wasn't what I was expecting. I was disappointed but that's part of the job. You have to leave such moments behind to go further". First hand experience at the very peak of the sport is what makes Julien Absalon stand out as a Team Manager and Brand Ambassador, and he has moved on. He's excited about the next stages in his life.
Julien Absalon has opened a new chapter in his life with the creation of his own team.

The Brexit revolution continues to send reverberations throughout UK workplaces. The political turmoil creates understandable uncertainty and anxiety in organisations of all shapes and sizes. Employees are unsure of the future and this presents both an opportunity and a risk for employers seeking to provide reassurance to staff on the road ahead. Trust and confidence in authority is at an all-time low and this has significant consequences for employee relations.
The slim majority vote in favour of leaving the EU has led to employee counselling services being inundated with concerns about job security, personal finances and future unknowns. Workplace conversations are being hijacked by the burning issue of the day and respectful conversations between colleagues on the consequences of the referendum have every risk of escalating into volatile and unpredictable exchanges.
At a simplistic level, this may well impact upon productivity and team dynamics, but beyond that there is a clear potential for conflict between employee and employer.
It is well reported that 51 of the FTSE 100 companies signed a letter backing the UK remaining in the EU. Evidently there will be many employees who hold strongly diverging political beliefs from that publically stated by their employer.
Given the divergence in the voting pattern between Scotland and England it is also foreseeable that there may be differing tensions in the various geographical regions of the same employer.
It is not unusual for there to be different values between employer and employee but it is how organisations now behave and implement these beliefs that will come under heightened scrutiny.
Bringing these complex strands together and ensuring a harmonious workplace will require significant input from HR leadership and great care in managing employee communications.
RBS and Lloyds Banking Group have sent memos to staff detailing their commitment to UK business and emphasising that, whilst their public preference was to support the remain campaign, the leave decision does not have an immediate business impact.
It is well reported that 51 of the FTSE 100 companies signed a letter backing the UK remaining in the EU.
Clearly, if an organisation is to embark upon a communications campaign then any initial memo needs to be supported with aligned consistent behaviours. There also needs to be an on-going communications campaign to ensure that the transparency and openness continues.
It is questionable how many organisations will have sufficient resources to dedicate to the communications campaign.
There will not be a one-size-fits-all approach to managing Brexit communications. CIPD Chief Executive Peter Cheese has warned against hasty decisions from employers.
Organisations ought to take the time to set in place their Brexit strategy both on communications and future work planning.
Employers should consider regular briefings or publishing a set of frequently asked questions which are accessible on company intranets. Such communications should be factual and not speculative. This will be difficult in the current state of play.
Within any employee population there will be a range of sensitivities to the referendum outcome.
The Equality Act 2010 provides a legal framework of protections for workers from discrimination and harassment on the grounds of the protected characteristics of race (nationality) and the rather more esoteric philosophical belief.
Both of these protections might be engaged by the Brexit debate.
Understandably, where there are significant numbers of EU workers in a workplace then the uncertainty on immigration status and policy decisions may generate heightened concerns. Whilst the recent Supreme Court decision of Taiwo v Olaigbe confirmed that immigration status does not, of itself, establish grounds for a discrimination claim, it is conceivable that workplace tensions may spill over into litigation between employee and employer.
Philosophical belief has been interpreted to enable employment tribunal claims to be brought where an employee is subject to less favourable treatment based on their political beliefs.
In the case of General Municipal and Boilermakers Union v Henderson an employment tribunal found that the claimant's "left wing democratic socialist beliefs" were protected beliefs.
Furthermore, in the case of Redfearn v United Kingdom the European Court of Human Rights found that UK law should extend specific protections to employees dismissed on the grounds of political opinion or affiliation, regardless of whether the political opinion is offensive or disturbing.
As a result of this decision, whilst a new ground for bringing a discrimination claim was not created, the qualifying period for bringing an unfair dismissal claim was removed where the reason or principal reason for the dismissal is, or relates to, the employee's political opinions or affiliation.
It is noteworthy that in recent years philosophical belief protection has been extended to such diverse personal views as a belief in climate change, a belief in anti-fox hunting and a belief in the higher purpose of public service broadcasting.
It is not a stretch to suggest that Brexit has a wider impact than all of these recognised protected beliefs.
However, for an employee to rely on philosophical belief protections to found a discrimination claim, they will need to demonstrate more than just a loosely held view on Brexit. The tribunals will require evidence that there is a genuinely held belief that it is not merely a temporary expression or view and that the belief is worthy of respect in a democratic society.
The current situation presents a leadership opportunity for organisations to demonstrate that they are an employer of choice.
Evidently, the door is open to expanding protections for employees with political beliefs and the Brexit scenario is very likely to fall within this category of philosophical belief.
It is inevitable that social media channels will also have a part to play in the communication of Brexit views whether within work or on online forums outside of work. Indeed, employees may feel more willing to express their views online than in work.
The fundamental legal protections will expand from the workplace to the online world and again we anticipate that there will be litigation that explores the boundaries of these developments.
Should employers wish to adopt a belt-and-braces approach to minimising conflict in the workplace one option may be to adapt discrimination and social media policies to include political beliefs. This may help avoid liability in circumstances where employees fall out with each other on public forums such as Facebook around Brexit issues.
The current situation presents a leadership opportunity for organisations to demonstrate that they are an employer of choice based upon their managing of the Brexit debate.
Whilst employees are fearful of the surprises ahead, a clear, open communications campaign can address some of the uncertainties and provide milestones for better engagement.
