As fish stocks continue to decline worldwide, coastal states seem to have largely failed in managing fisheries in their EEZs effectively. This study examines the international legal principles for effective EEZ fisheries management, and undertakes to assess their domestic implementation in a comparative perspective. The 1982 UNCLOS as well as general international law provide a useful range of norms for sustainable EEZ fisheries management, if carefully interpreted. These include the coastal state's obligation to ensure that the maintenance of the living resources in its EEZ is not endangered by overexploitation; the duty to maintain or restore populations of target species at sustainable levels; the determination of catch limits for stocks affected by exploitation; and the duty to apply the precautionary approach. In addition to environmental requirements, human rights obligations also affect national fisheries management systems. The second part of the study evaluates the implementation of the international legal standards in five selected coastal states (Kenya, Namibia, Indonesia, Brazil and Mexico) and the EC. It focuses on the determination of total allowable catch, the allocation of individual fishing authorisations, and the regulation of foreign access to EEZ fisheries as exemplary management measures.

Hemingway In Cuba
Hemingway In Cuba Previous Broadcasts
KQED Life: Thu, Sep 28, 2017 -- 11:00 PM
The story of Ernest Hemingway's 30-year love affair with the West Indies republic is recounted in this documentary. Cuba captured Ernest Hemingway's fertile imagination and inspired him to create now-legendary fictional characters: Harry Morgan of To Have and Have Not, Thomas Hudson of Islands in the Stream and Santiago of The Old Man and the Sea. The program travels to Cuba to capture Hemingway's old haunts - many of which remain unchanged - and explores Hemingway's real-life adventures in Cuba, from his passion for marlin fishing and safari hunting, as well as the influence of his wives and lovers on his life and work. It presents archival footage and includes interviews with Cuban scholars and Hemingway biographers who discuss how Cuba's culture, religion and even its volatile politics influenced this legendary American author.

"Utterly fascinating…Wheeler has given us an important new understanding of the most notorious calamity in the annals of twentieth-century exploration. Cherry is a wonderful book." —Jon Krakauer, author of Into Thin Air
"Beautifully written…Wheeler's vocabulary to evoke this luminous and cruel continent…appears limitless." —Caroline Alexander, The New York Times Book Review
"Spellbinding…Cherry is an exquisite work." —The Washington Post
"Accomplishes what only the best biographies can….She is able to satisfy the reader's curiosity of how it must have felt to be on that doomed expedition." —The Times (London)
"With this wonderful biography Sara Wheeler has now vaulted into the front rank of modern British writers….Cherry is so much more than a story of one remarkable man. It is, among other things, an exploration of the mind, a tour through the notions of national identity and pride, and a celebration of the tensile strength of the human spirit." —Simon Winchester

Located just a stone's throw from Silverstone Circuit, Hitech Grand Prix Limited is a UK-based racing team competing in he FIA Formula 3 European Championship.
When it comes to on-track performance, precision engineering is the name of the game. The team at Hitech Technologies began as a purveyor of engineering and manufacturing services for motorsport, but have since branched out to include provision of these services for clients in a number of other wide-ranging industries.
When it comes to the pinnacle of racing performance, the hours of training outside of the car can count just as much as those spent within.
No one takes this more seriously than those in the performance arm of Hitech GP, who ensure drivers are in peak physical condition.
Starting in 2019, the new FIA Formula 3 Championship will be the third-highest run on the ladder of single-seater motorsport.
Hitech entered the inaugural series of Asian F3 in 2018, competing in a densely packed grid made up of some of the best drivers from not just the region, but further afield as well.
Starting in early 2019, the Asian F3 Winter Series is likely to be a similarly electrifying series.
Successful racing drivers have to be skilled, determined, physically fit, brave and competitive. But they don't have to be men.
W Series aims to give remarkable female drivers an opportunity in motorsport that simply hasn't been available to them before now.
Talent does not have a gender. We believe anyone with skill, passion and commitment should have a chance to race at the pinnacle of motorsport, and W Series will create those chances, open doors and fuel our future.

Baby boomers are retiring in droves. Some are well prepared while others never prepared or lost much of their savings to the great recession.
For the fourth year in a row, the Insured Retirement Institute (IRI) has issued a report detailing baby boomers' expectations for retirement in 2014. In it, the IRI finds that while confidence in retirement preparation among boomers continues to slip, slight improvements were made in several areas, including the percentage of boomers with retirement savings, their total savings, as well as the number of boomers with a retirement savings goal and a planned retirement age.
"One of the most striking developments since we began this research series is the decline in boomers who did not know when they would retire," IRI President and CEO Cathy Weatherford said. "That number has been cut in half. While the research shows that they are deciding to retire later in life, the important thing is that they are grappling with important aspects of retirement planning and beginning to develop a clearer picture of where they are and where they intend to be."
The following are the five boomer expectations for retirement in 2014:
1. Confidence in retirement
Baby boomers' confidence in retirement has declined since 2011, according to IRI. In fact, the number of boomers who are confident in their efforts to prepare financially for retirement has dropped 9%. In 2011, 44% of boomers surveyed were confident in their retirement plans. Today, however, only 35% say they are confident.
The report also noted a sharp increase among those showing little to no confidence at all regarding their retirement plans and outlook. A full 31% of boomers reported having little to no confidence in their retirement preparations in 2014, up from 22% in 2013.
2. Financial outlook
Boomers don't seem to be satisfied with how they're doing financially. In fact, in 2013, 77% of boomers reported being satisfied with the way things were going, while 19% stated they were dissatisfied. One year later, only 65% are satisfied, while 32% indicated they are dissatisfied.
It's not all doom and gloom, however. The report shows that boomers are beginning to show more optimisim regarding their financial situation — with some thinking it may improve over the next five years. As the graph below illustrates, 34% of boomers feel their financial situation will improve somewhat.
3. Planned retirement age
Though boomers may seem unclear about their financial preparations for retirement, they are, each year, becoming more certain of their retirement age. In 2011, 35% did not know when they would retire. Today, only 17% are uncertain.
With this retirement age clarity comes the likelihood of retiring later in life. The percentage of boomers planning to retire between the ages of 62 and 65 was lower in 2014 than in any prior year. On the other hand, the percentage of boomers planning to retire between the ages of 66 and 70 (or later) has never been higher.
The number of boomers who expect to retire at 70 or older has steadily increased each year, rising from 17% in 2011 to 28% in 2014, according to the report. There is one exception to the trend of retiring later, however. There has been an uptick (to 12%) with those deciding to retire before age 62, compared to 6% in 2013.
4. Retirement savings, planning behaviors and other considerations
According to IRI, boomers in 2014 are slightly more likely to have savings for retirment compared to prior years. However, the savings aren't sufficient. In 2014, 80% of boomers had retirement savings, while only 77% to 78% of boomers had savings in earlier years.
Though one in five boomers in 2014 do not have savings for retirement, nearly half (48%) of those who have saved have put away $250,000 or more. On the other hand, 11% have less than $50,000 saved for their golden years, while 9% said they didn't know how much they had saved.
5. Boomers working with a financial advisor: a more confident demographic
It's a legitimate correllation: those boomers who are working with a financial advisor feel more confident about retirement and exhibit better retirement planning behaviors. In fact, twice the number of boomers are confident in having sufficient savings for retirement, compared to boomers who are planning for retirement on their own.
The IRI report pointed to findings from the Centre for Interuniversity Research and Analysis on Organization (CIRANO), which found that better savings behaviors acquired through the client-advisor relationship contributed to the greater assets observed with those working with financial advisors. Further, the organization found that professional advice has a positive influence on other retirement planning aspects, including increased usage of tax-advantaged savings vehicles, improved asset allocation and greater portfolio diversification.

BROOMFIELD, CO - July 17, 2012
Webroot, a leader in delivering Internet security as a service, today announced that Webroot® SecureAnywhere™ offerings are now listed as compatible with the Microsoft® Windows® 8 operating system, currently available as a release preview. Providing the fastest, least-disruptive, most-effective security, Webroot SecureAnywhere enables users who have installed the Windows 8 preview to get the most out of the "fast and fluid experience" Microsoft is promising with its completely reimagined Windows operating system.
Webroot offers a uniquely complementary security solution for Windows 8 users. Webroot SecureAnywhere scans three times faster, occupies 99% less space, and uses 95% less memory than the average security product, according to PassMark, an independent testing organization.*
"While there are many security solutions available today that will protect users while they are trying Microsoft's new operating system, only Webroot SecureAnywhere will ensure that the security software doesn't slow down the operating system or inhibit the speed at which applications open and run," said Mike Malloy, executive vice president, Webroot Products and Strategy. "Together, Webroot SecureAnywhere and Windows 8 can deliver a revolutionary experience, protecting users and their information without asking them to sacrifice a minute of their time or have a negative effect on the device's battery consumption."
In a recent Anti-Virus Comparatives - Performance Test, Webroot SecureAnywhere outperformed 20 other security solutions when it came to the overall impact on system performance, earning the highest "Advanced+" three-star rating in the test. The test evaluated the impact of security suites on various activities including file copying, archiving/unarchiving, installing/uninstalling applications, launching applications, and downloading files. While the test was performed on systems running the Windows 7 operating system, the Webroot SecureAnywhere technology performs consistently in any environment given its cloud-based architecture.
Recent PassMark tests support these results, showing Webroot outperforming the major competitors in key performance metrics for both home and business solutions.* Webroot SecureAnywhere has an install size of just less than 4 MB and takes up 141 times less disk space than the leading competitor. In addition, SecureAnywhere uses 42 times less memory while the system is idle than other leading providers. With an initial scan time of less than one minute, SecureAnywhere scans three times faster than the competition and uses 19 times less memory than other leading providers.
Changing the security model with protection that suits the user:
Webroot SecureAnywhere installs in six seconds and immediately scans the PC. For users who simply want their security to work for them, Webroot SecureAnywhere removes the burden by handling it automatically. For technically minded users, it features 124 settings they can customize, and advanced tools for diagnosing security problems.
Webroot SecureAnywhere enables users to manage security for all of their PCs, tablets, and mobile devices from a single web portal, with a single license. Individuals who serve as their family's "tech expert" can be given administrative privileges to monitor their family's protection via the web portal.
Virtually instant protection against new threats:
Webroot SecureAnywhere is the first security solution to leverage comprehensive application behaviors to determine the categorization of all software, good and bad. All of the protection is delivered from a cloud database so users never have to bother with time-consuming signature updates. Every file that tries to run on a PC is analyzed and the data is fed into the Webroot Intelligence Network in the cloud. Within seconds, everyone around the world using Webroot SecureAnywhere is protected from the newest threats. If a computer is offline, Webroot SecureAnywhere monitors the system and if malicious activity is observed, it will take action against it automatically.
Webroot SecureAnywhere is now compatible with Windows 8 and available for users to download at www.webroot.com.

For this last tutorial of the day I will show you how to draw a Chibi wolf. Yes another Chibi. Hey but it's another animal one again. As you may or may not know by now, wolves are one of my favorite animals. They have always had this magical quality to them for some reason. Wolves are very beautiful animals but are very vicious at the same time. There are three types of wolves that I know of. There is the red wolf which happens to be the smallest breed of all wolves. The red wolf only reaches weights of up to 70 pounds and they get 32 inches in height. Next you have the grey wolf. Grey wolves are probably the most common and they are the largest of all wolf breeds. These beautiful creatures can get to be 175 pounds and are found in places like Canada and Alaska. The next species of wolf that I know of is the almighty white wolf or the arctic wolf. These are the wolves that have pure white fur. Their fur is white to blend in with the snow so they can camouflage themselves when hunting for prey. I find that the white wolf is the prettiest of all the wolf breeds out there. In this tutorial I will teach you how to draw a Chibi wolf step by step. Of course I put my own personal touches on this Chibi animal like the markings and such. I also made this wolf a cross between a white and grey wolf. The steps are easy to follow and when you are done you can color or alter the look of your Chibi wolf any way you want. All of my tutorials teach you how to draw, but while you are learning, sometimes add one of your own personal touches to be creative. You never know how art will come out unless you open your mind and draw. I will be back with more fun tutorials tomorrow and I hope you all have an awesome day. Bye people and peace out!

The increased availability of biometrics, including Apple's inclusion of a thumbprint scanner on its latest iPhone, fuels consumers' interest in the technology, says Frank Natoli, Diebold's chief innovation officer.
Apple's move "reignited conversations about biometrics by making the technology available to the masses," Natoli says. "The myriad devices showcased at the 2014 Consumer Electronics Show [CES] pushed that conversation even further."
CES took place in Las Vegas in January. According to Natoli, the increasing popularity of biometrics traces to its ability to deliver on two critical consumer expectations: convenience and security.
But successful biometrics applications must go one step further, Natoli says: "They must achieve three things, in this order: augment security, enhance convenience and efficiency, and minimize liability."
Other technologies that caught Natoli's eye during CES:
• Wearable technology. A close cousin to biometrics, this advancement captures data from peoples' bodies and translates it into actionable information.
"This shows some consumers are willing to integrate technology into their daily lives and represents opportunities for financial institutions to better serve consumers through integrated delivery of services—think mobile banking and the transition to converged, omnichannel banking," he says.
• Powerful processing. Computer chips continue to shrink in size while gaining computing power, Natoli says: "Future technology's efficiency of space and energy consumption translates directly to dollars saved. But larger than that, it leads us down the path of sustainability."
• Immersive visuals. Beyond enhanced screen resolution, "this year, people kept their eyes on the curves, with bent and flexible screens catching a lot of attention," Natoli says.
This technology has applications for Diebold's Concierge Video Services™ and RemoteTeller™ system, he adds. "But the implications go much further, as consumers see video as the next best thing to reality."
• Sensor technology. The ability to detect movement, gestures, location, and eye path will change how people interact digitally, Natoli says.
"It will create more immersive experiences and more perceptive interactions," he says. "These will be the technologies that make machines more lifelike and create an entirely new level of technology accessibility for the public."
