Rodney Mercer’s “sealfie” of Ellen DeGeneres has found a home at Gitanos’ Supper Club and Tapas Bar

April 16, 2014 Canada

The seal fur creation can now be seen at Gitanos’ Supper Club and Tapas Bar in the Millbrook Mall, hanging near the entrance of the Donna Thistle-owned establishment.

The New England groundfish debacle (Part III): who or what is at fault? Nils E. Stolpe/FishNet

It took me a while to decide how to most accurately describe the situation that has been visited upon the New England fishing communities that are and since colonial times have been dependent on the groundfish fisheries.

NILS STOLPE: The New England groundfish debacle (Part IV): Is cutting back harvest really the answer?

While it’s a fact that’s hardly ever acknowledged, the assumption in fisheries management is that if the population of a stock of fish isn’t at some arbitrary level, it’s because of too much fishing.
