Another problem with salmon farming has been revealed in a recent paper that shows the damage salmon farms can do to nearby wild fish populations. Farmed salmon, kept in unnaturally high densities, are a breeding ground for parasitic sea lice. When young wild salmon on their way to the ocean swim past pens of farmed salmon at the mouths of rivers, they get infested with these lice. The scientists say that lice infestations could drive some salmon populations they studied in British Columbia to extinction in four years. Such problems seem likely to worsen as fish farming grows. But there are solutions. One is to farm more vegetarian fish such as tilapia and catfish. Another is to move salmon pens to better locations. Earlier this year, John Fredriksen, the main shareholder in Marine Harv...

When I first started teaching high school many years ago, departmental exams were an annual exercise, and part of school life. There was a school curriculum, which prescribed the course of study, and its content. Teachers were not permitted to do "their own thing" in whatever manner that they chose. This old nonsense about teachers "teaching to the test" is just that, nonsense. Teachers taught to the curriculum. Those teachers who taught well, and those students who mastered the prescribed material, did well on the departmentals.

A historical correction to the review of the novel, Coventry, which appeared Sept. 14: Coventry Cathedral was not the only British church destroyed by bombing in the Second World War. Most British cities that were bombed at all heavily lost churches. London lost at least a dozen, including the Great Synagogue. Even in Coventry, one other church was destroyed in the 1940 blitz: St. Nicholas, in whose postwar replacement my wife and I were later married. Coventry's was the only cathedral to be destroyed though others were damaged and, but for a bomb that did not explode, St. Paul's itself might well have been lost. Inevitably, given the undeveloped technology of nighttime bomb-aiming in the early 1940s, and the layout of many British towns where factories, houses, and churches often lay s...

I am trying to raise capital, rejuvenate the fish farm, bring it to cash-flow positive, then expand from there," [Errol Farr] said. "We believe in this bio-resources strategy," said Farr. "Aqua farming is part of that and we believe it will be a significant player because of growing demand for high-quality fish protein.

This summer's run indicates that there may be other elements at work in regards to salmon health and sustainability. [Bob Chamberlin] believes it's in large part due to the presence of salmon farms along the wild salmon route. No," Chief Bob Chamberlin would shout. "Fish farms," went the chorus. This went on for many minutes as police blocked traffic for the procession on one of Vancouver's main thoroughfares. Chamberlin, [Alexandra Morton] and Henry Charles of Musqueam attended the inquiry briefly before heading off to a rally in front of the Vancouver Art Gallery. They hoped to present a "sacred salmon scroll" to the commissioners.
