Protecting and Promoting Scotland's Freshwater Fish and Fisheries
The Royal Society of Edinburgh (RSE) is pleased to respond to the Scottish Executive Rural Affairs Department's protecting and promoting Scotland's freshwater fish and fisheries review. The RSE is Scotland's premier Learned Society, comprising Fellows elected on the basis of their distinction, from the full range of academic disciplines, and from industry, commerce and the professions. This response has been compiled with the assistance of a number of Fellows with direct experience of fisheries and conservation issues.
The Scottish Executive document is most timely and will do much to enhance the debate regarding rationalisation and co-ordination of fisheries management in Scotland. One omission from the review, however, is the absence of any reference to the extensive research concerning freshwater fish that has been carried out over the years by the Scottish scientific community.
The different sections of the review are addressed below. However, the Society believes consideration should also be given to the 'Angling for Change' report of the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF), which has been put together after considerable deliberation by the leading fishery and conservation organisations in Scotland. There is a danger that if not carefully managed, efforts to 'protect' Scotland's freshwater fish and fisheries will be undone by efforts to 'promote' them.
Chapter 1: Scotland's Freshwater fish
The review document is generally comprehensive. However, the Society would like to highlight a couple of points regarding comments on Scotland's freshwater fish. On Page 3, it should be noted that the Rainbow Trout is not a 'long established species' as there are no established populations of this fish in Scotland, though it is widely stocked from fish farms for 'put-and-take' fisheries. On Page 4, the document comments about Arctic Charr that 'Unusually, all of these complete their life cycles in fresh water...'. In fact this is not unusual, for all populations of Arctic Charr in Europe south of 65oN are completely freshwater.
Chapter 2: Conservation mechanisms
The initiatives being developed to address the conservation of wild freshwater fish are most welcome. The designation of Sites of Special Scientific Interest (SSSIs) and Special Areas of Conservation (SACs) will be invaluable in helping to protect some of our rarer and endangered aquatic flora and fauna. However, beyond these designated areas there is still a need to ensure that there is wild habitat protection.
Chapter 3: Threats and challenges
Introductions and transfers
Ill-considered introductions and transfers of alien species are a threat to freshwater biodiversity. There needs to be a greater awareness of this threat and stronger legislation to combat deliberate introductions. For example, Section 24 of the 1986 Act makes it an offence to introduce salmon eggs into freshwater in a salmon district where there is a District Salmon Fishery Board without permission from the Board. Therefore, encouragement should be given to enable complete coverage of Scotland's freshwater fisheries by District Salmon Fishery Boards, which is incomplete at present.
Predation and predator control is a sensitive and emotive subject. More research is required into the significance of predation (for example by seals) on salmon/sea trout during times of salmon scarcity.
The impacts of salmon farming are an important consideration for wild salmon and sea trout fisheries. The industry has expanded rapidly in the past 15 years. However, the sophistication of the industry's regulation has not sufficiently changed to keep pace.
There would be merit in a single independent regulatory body to oversee the planning and regulation of the industry in both freshwater and seawater. Currently the Scottish Environmental Protection Agency (SEPA) police the industry in terms of pollution discharge, but the wider environmental impacts, particularly on wild fish stocks, are not within their remit. The role of SEPA should be expanded to become the overseeing regulatory body responsible for the siting and environmental monitoring and control of fish farms, although extra resources will be required for it to undertake this role. More research on the impacts of salmon farming (in both marine and freshwater loch environments) is also required.
The Joint Government/Industry Working Report on Infectious Salmon Anaemia (1999) has recommended 6 or 12 month fallow periods on salmon farms, and the synchronised production of farms within biological areas to break cycles of disease and parasites. Similar suggestions have been made by the Tripartite Working Group through voluntary Area Management Agreements (AMAs) between farm and wild fishery interests. While fallowing and synchronised production is now becoming more widespread in the industry, and will likely increase as capacity becomes concentrated in fewer companies, these practices are only be instituted through a voluntary code of practice. Consideration could, therefore, be given to statutory sea lice monitoring, together with a penalty system for failure to reach lice targets (as is the case in Norway), backed up by stronger encouragement for the use of fallow periods and synchronised production. There could also be mandatory tagging for farm salmon and a statutory penalty scheme for any recaptured escapees to act as an incentive for farms to prevent escapes, although policing the tagging of fish would be a difficult job and there are potential animal welfare issues related to tagging as well.
One point to note is that the 1999 'Locational Guidelines for the Authorisation of Marine Fish Farms In Scottish Waters' are only applicable to applications for new sea bed leases (i.e. to the Crown Estate/local authority), and not to increases of existing discharge consents (i.e. to SEPA). Consequently, salmon farm production can be increased in many sea lochs in which the guidelines have recommended that no expansion should be allowed, simply because of companies being able successfully to increase existing discharge consents through SEPA, who are not currently bound by the Guidelines. To address this, SEPA could widen its role to include factors affecting wild salmonids (i.e. sea lice, disease, escapes) as suggested above.
Wider environmental issues
Many authorities and companies whose activities impinge on fresh water have now a considerable river conservation awareness and some, such as Scottish and Southern Energy and the Forestry Commission, take account of the effects of their work on fish and their river environment. Perhaps the formation of a comparable group to the Tripartite Working Group on aquaculture could be considered with regard to impacts of other human activities on Scotland's freshwater fish and fisheries.
With regard to the recently issued 'River Crossings and Migratory Fish: Design Guidance', financial constraints are likely to act against local road engineers taking on the extra costs required to adhere to them when road building. Consequently, funding could be made available for sourcing by fishery managers to sub-contract roads departments to include fish passage operations within their budgets, where necessary.
With the end of the Countryside Premium Scheme, and the comparatively limited availability of Woodland Grant Schemes, fresh incentives directed at riparian woodland and habitat improvement are required for river owners to improve the freshwater environment for salmon, trout, other fish species, and wildlife in the rivercorridors as a whole.
In terms of the proposed EU Water Framework Directive, Fisheries Trusts could provide an important source of baseline information on local fish populations and habitat quality, which is standardised via the Scottish Fisheries Coordination Centre.
Chapter 4: The fisheries
The fisheries for trout and other freshwater fish
The lack of management, administration and legislation of fisheries for trout and other freshwater fish is a matter of concern. The brown trout has some statutory protection on rivers where Protection Orders are in force, but only on the Tweed, are other freshwater fish species covered by fisheries legislation. In particular, knowledge of eel stocks is very limited, and management of eel fisheries in areas such as Wester Ross is completely unregulated and the current situation can only be detrimental to what are widely regarded as depleted eel populations.
To permit the management of both migratory and non-migratory fish species (including non-salmonid species such as eels) expansion of existing District Salmon Fishery Boards membership could be an option. Provision of adequate representation and additional and fair allocation of funding would be essential. Fisheries Trusts and Foundations would also need to be represented on such expanded boards. Eel populations are monitored routinely by Fishery Trusts and other Foundations, but without a more integrated approach to eel fishery management this information is underutilised.
Chapter 5: Fisheries management structures
Scottish Natural Heritage (SNH)
The Atlantic Salmon is listed in Annex II of the EU Habitats directive and is therefore deserving of conservation action. SNH's involvement in salmon fisheries management could be increased beyond the establishment of Special Areas of Conservation (SACs) for salmon, possibly through direct involvement on relevant District Salmon Fishery Boards (such as where districts overlap National Nature Reserves) and indirectly through funding fish conservation related projects.
District Salmon Fishery Boards (DSFBs)
The Society believes that DSFBs should be maintained as the basic management structure for freshwater fisheries, but their current structure and responsibilities should be widened. DSFBs should be extended to cover all areas but, at a minimum, DSFBs should be established to cover all rivers flowing into individual sea lochs and the Government should apply pressure on existing DSFBs, where gaps exist, to accelerate this process.
There would be merit in changing the name from District Salmon Fishery Boards to 'District Fishery Boards' (DFBs) and, as noted above, in widening their responsibilities to the management of all freshwater/estuarine fish and fisheries within their catchments. DFBs could then be responsible for the policing and management of these fisheries and raise additional revenue by selling fishing Licenses/tickets/tenancies for fisheries other than salmon/sea trout (e.g. brown trout, eels). The only exception might be the need for increased availability of funds for Fishery Trusts and Foundations, and for fishery conservation and management projects. The revenue-earning role of the Boards, however, could be at odds with conservation of limited or endangered stocks, for example, through failure to enforce catch and release, close seasons and fishing method restrictions; and through stocking policies of non-indigenous strains versus local stock. This could be avoided by reserving to Ministers the right to over-rule Board decisions if deemed necessary for the long-term sustainable management of the salmonid and other stocks.
Representation on the boards should also be wider so that netting interests, aquaculture, wildlife interests and scientific knowledge could be represented on the Board by right, and including, when necessary, representation from SNH and SEPA. In addition, DSFBs are only as well-informed as the individuals involved. Consequently, the quality of salmon and sea trout fisheries management by DSFBs varies greatly. Encouragement should be given to river owners to participate in some form of formal fisheries management training to ensure a 'basic standard' of management.
Fisheries Trusts and Foundations
The Society believes that DSFBs should be encouraged to establish and contribute to local Fishery Trust and Foundations, which should also be represented on DSFBs to assist the flow of advice and information to the Boards. More funding opportunities should also be made available for the establishment and maintenance of Fishery Trusts and Foundations, and for fish conservation and management projects carried out by these organisations (e.g. through bodies such as SNH, SEPA, Local Government, Enterprise bodies and the Fisheries Research Services). It should be noted that the development of Area Management Agreements for aquaculture is likely to involve considerable input from DSFBs and Fishery Trusts in order to monitor sea lice and disease on wild fish, which will in turn have funding implications for these bodies.
Chapter 6: Fishing rights and the scope for wider access to fishing
Fishing rights
The programme of consolidation of existing salmon and freshwater fisheries legislation is much needed and very welcome. The Society agrees with the need for Protection Orders, as long as they are applied with sensitivity. There is room, however, for improvement in the presentation of legislation to make it more accessible to users other than those already expert in the technical details and more could be done by way of explanation of provisions, for example, by including reference to relevant EU Directives. There is also a need to consider whether provisions designed to achieve conviction of those who seek to evade the law are consistent with the legislation on Human Rights. These issues are, however, too detailed for this stage of the review.
The rationale and scope for wider access
The management of wild brown trout in Highland lochans outside Protection Orders is a potential problem. Although these lochans are widespread, they cannot support intensive fisheries and while some may be fished infrequently, others are very popular and their populations may be depleted. It would be unwise to promote fishing on hill lochans without adequate management structures in place to control and monitor it. As suggested above, brown trout, along with other fish species, should be brought under the legal aegis of DSFBs, so that trout fishing could be promoted, marketed, policed and managed by the DSFB's. Fishery Trusts already collate baseline information on brown trout stocks and would be able to use this to guide their management in the future.
With regard to widening salmon fishing, the Society supports the document's comment that the fact that salmon stocks are currently under considerable pressure means that now is not the time to increase exploitation.

Well, who knew? Not only do we have a mother's day but apparently mothers also have a special day specifically allocated to being lazy. National Lazy Mom's Day occurs on first Friday in September every year. It is the day for moms to celebrate doing nothing without feeling guilty of it. In other words, it is a day to simply lazy. This year it falls on 2nd September. But National Lazy Moms Day is celebrated on 5th September.
Even on Mother's Day, moms across the world clean, cook, generally work hard to keep their households clean. On Lazy Mom's day, moms are encouraged to relax, take a backseat and simply be lazy. The truth is that most mothers can't afford to lazy. From morning until the kids hit the bed moms are up and restless.
Moms around the world celebrate this day in different ways. The majority view the day as a holiday for laundry, dishes, car pools and bathroom cleaning. Because we know most of the mothers would find it hard to actually come up with ways to sit and just be lazy.
If all mothers are out decided to fulfil the lazy moms day, it could potentially cause the outbreak of World War III, particularly when mothers are left with clean up following one day of tools down.
How can mothers be lazy? Get the children to bring you breakfast in bed, get your husband to drive to work, or make the kids take the bus to school rather than dropping at school gates. Best of all these, order the food and have a night off from cooking.
Kids have to encourage their moms to take a day off. No needs to buy a present for her just provide her some peace and quiet will be enough. There are so many ideas to celebrate this day such as take a nap, once the kids are off to school simply get back to bed and enjoy a few hours of uninterrupted snooze time. Have an elaborate breakfast, or just enjoy the cup of coffee. Forget about laundry, and give yourself the day off from all household works.

This Cheese Tortellini in Light Broth is an old favorite of mine from Giada's book Everyday Italian. I've been fighting a cold for the last week and was craving something light, simple and easy to make. Being sick I have not been up for cooking much and I was getting tired of all the takeout Craig was bringing home, and wanted something home cooked. I then remembered this recipe, and on Easter Sunday mustered up enough energy to make it to church and then head over to my local Trader Joe's to pick up the small list of ingredients for this soup. With just 5 ingredients you can prepare this soup when you are not feeling so great, or for a quick dinner after work, or anytime you are in need of a quick and tasty meal. Feeling better already 🙂
Cheese Tortellini in Light Broth
Yield 4 servings
- 4 cups homemade or organic chicken broth
- 1 12-ounce package cheese tortellini
- ½ teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
- ¼ cup shredded Parmesan cheese
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh Italian parsley
- Pour broth into a large saucepan. Cover and bring to a boil. Add the tortellini and ½ teaspoon pepper. Cover partially and simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Cook until the tortellini is al dente, about 7 minutes.
- Ladle soup into serving bowls and top with Parmesan cheese and fresh parsley.

Justin Bieber and his actions behind closed doors change lives!
Cancer… There are many words I'm sure we could all use to describe this disease. Let's just keep it G and say it friggin sucks and it takes too many lives. There are so many good people and famialies that have to go to war with this disease and it breaks my heart.
Especially when it's an innocent child who hasn't even lived half their life, don't you think that makes cancer THAT much worse? At least there are people in the world who acknowledge it's terrible and want to help make a difference.
The truth is a lot of children have cancer, many different and rare forms and these children… Well.. They are just that, kids and they love their idols. That's why when I see a story like "Demi Lovato visits children in hospital," or "Justin Bieber gives one last wish," I can't help but smile. And that's exactly what Justin Bieber has done for a terminally ill patient in New Hampshire.
It was just a few weeks ago and a beautiful girl named Karlee was suffering from a bone marrow disorder (those are pretty hard to fight) but she was fighting like no other. And Justin Bieber stopped by to visit with her and help her smile, her mother couldn't have been more thankful, she took to Facebook and posted a picture thanking the "Cold Water," singer:
"Justin I am thanking you with all my heart," Drew wrote in her post. "You made my daughter's wish come true in Boston."
Regardless of what Justin Bieber does, he's always looking impact the lives of others. Whether you agree with him or not, how many patients has he made smile? How many fans? How many Belibers? So may, including Karlee who was unresponsive for several days—but get this? She became more responsive after hearing a Justin Bieber song on a paramedic's cell phone.
That's what's truly amazing, music does speak to the heart, in more ways than one. According to Fox 8 the paramedic put the phone on Karlee's chest and she smiled:
"On one of her last days she was unresponsive to all except when the paramedic had put your song on his phone on her chest and my daughters head bounced up and down a few times and she smiled."
That gave me the chills, no joke. Karlee's mom finished thanking Justin Bieber by letting the world how kind he is:
"I hope you know you are the sweetest, kindest person. Please know you really do make such a difference in this world, spreading love to so many. From the bottom of my heart thank you."
Actions truly do speak louder than words, we say these things about our families and friends everyday on Facebook. It shouldn't matter who is dating who—or what's going on in someone's personal life. It's those things they do behind closed doors that count. And you don't see Justin Bieber bragging about the good things he does for others, do you?
[ Justin Bieber Meet and Greet with Emily who kicked cancers butt! ]
All you see is negativity, in this life you have to make choices, choices on what to read and believe. And not everything you read on the internet is accurate. It's just like the game telephone, so, if you've been dragged into the drama that's been speculating around the Biebs, take a step back and realize what's truly important, it's these things, the loving things he's doing behind closed doors.
The mistakes we make together in this life, NEVER define us, we create ourselves. Justin you're truly amazing for all you do.
Cancer is no joke and losing a loved one to it isn't any easier. But I'm certain that it helps to know that your child smiled a lot before their time and I'm sure it feels good to know you were a part of that smile. Life is about making people smile, loving unconditionally and never giving up, so be that person because we all can choose to be positive. Don't forget to subscribe to our Newsletter and let us know what you think about his visits with charity in the comments below!
Blessed be.

A few months ago, folks at King County Solid Waste Division noticed a troubling trend in transfer station inspection reporting.
Every week, each of the 10 solid waste transfer stations must be inspected. These inspections are important. Failure to report inspections to safety officials could cause stations to be shut down. Stations also rely on the inspections to identify items that need repair.
Compliance needs to be 100%.
But only 65% of inspections were being reported on time.
Kerwin Pyle, a supervisor with Solid Waste Division, asked "Why?"
The first thing he learned was that the inspections were being done. They just weren't being reported on time.
Pyle asked "Why?"
To start with, transfer station operators were faxing the report to their team leads (instead of directly to the Safety Officer) so that the leads could review the report, which caused a delay.
Pyle asked "Why?" again.
If there is work to be done, the team lead needs to arrange for a work order to be created and write that work order number on the form before sending it to the Safety Officer.
The Lead arranges for work to be done; the Safety Officer needs to know the work is arranged.
When Pyle asked the Safety Officer about this….Answer: No! The Safety Officer doesn't need to have the work order number. The Safety Officer only needs the completed inspection report.
Of course, it is important to fix any problems identified during reviews, so a work order has to be completed. But it wasn't necessary to fix those problems or to have a work order in order to process the inspection review itself.
Reporting the inspection and fixing the problem were two separate processes that had been mixed into a cocktail, causing unnecessary delays.
This is how the cocktailed processes used to look:
Pyle's 5 Whys investigation has solved the problem, the two processes have been disentangled, and transfer stations are now complaint with their inspection reporting!
This is what the streamlined inspection reporting process looks like now:

With new Republican leadership seizing the reins of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, the U.S. payday loan industry finally has an opportunity to weaken or kill a regulation that it has battled for years.
Payday lenders fought tooth and nail to stop the CFPB from adopting the strict new restrictions, but their arguments largely fell on deaf ears during Richard Cordray's four-and-a-half-year tenure as director. The regulation, finalized in October, would make it much harder to issue high-cost consumer loans of 45 days or less.
But the arrival of acting CFPB Director Mick Mulvaney, a former GOP congressman who was among the top recipients of campaign contributions from payday lenders, opens new doors for the long-embattled sector.
Earlier this week, Mulvaney made clear his opposition to the payday loan rule. So now, rather than having to persuade the CFPB to back down, industry lobbyists can focus on providing agency officials with justifications for retreating, as well as suggestions for how to do so in a way that will not spark a political backlash.
One payday lobbyist said that the industry is pursuing a multipronged strategy. One involves seeking help from the Trump administration to ease the regulatory environment. But the strategy may also include filing a lawsuit to get a judge to overturn the CFPB rule. "Hopefully one approach will work," the source said.
The CFPB cannot withdraw the payday loan rule without undertaking a lengthy information-gathering process. But Mulvaney sits in an unprecedented position as both the acting director of the CFPB and the head of the White House Office of Management and Budget, which has authority to review executive branch regulations. The latter job may give him more options for defanging the CFPB's payday lending rule.
To be sure, the CFPB, as an independent agency, is more insulated from OMB oversight than many other federal agencies. The bureau's rules are not subject to a review of costs and benefits by the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, which sits within OMB.
But there may be other ways for OMB to flex its muscle. In a recent Wall Street Journal op-ed article, two Washington lawyers floated the argument that an obscure 1980 law called the Paperwork Reduction Act could be used to stop the payday loan rule. The basic theory is that the OMB can disapprove CFPB actions that impose unnecessary or excessive paperwork burdens.
Mulvaney was asked about that specific idea during a press conference earlier this week, and he voiced enthusiasm about exercising his powers as OMB director to undo the work of his predecessor at the CFPB.
"You can imagine that the Office of Management and Budget under the Trump administration might look very cautiously — even cynically — against rules that were produced by the Cordray CFPB," he said.
"So to the extent it is appropriate and legal for the Office of Management and Budget's Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs to figure out a way to modify, change or somehow impact those rules, that's absolutely going to take place."
Another strategy that Mulvaney could pursue: Delaying implementation of the payday loan rule, which is currently scheduled to take effect in July 2019.
Of course, these scenarios depend on Mulvaney remaining at the helm of the CFPB. The agency's deputy director, Leandra English, is challenging his appointment in court.
What's more, any effort by Mulvaney to blunt the impact of the payday rule could be subject to a separate court challenge. "The thing they have to be careful about," said Ben Olson, a former CFPB lawyer who is now in private practice, "is that they not engage in action that can look like a backdoor repeal."
Cordray's allies argue that his efforts will be hard to undo because of the extensive research that the bureau put into developing the payday loan regulation. "It's not one that an ideologue can just come in and change [on a] whim," said Lauren Saunders, associate director of the National Consumer Law Center.
During the 2015-2016 election cycle, Mulvaney, who was then a Republican member of the House of Representatives, received $31,700 from payday lenders, according to records from the Center for Responsive Politics.
Mulvaney said Monday that those contributions do not represent a conflict of interest because he is no longer serving in elected office. "I do not think that the campaign contributions I took over the last six years create any conflicts at all," he said.
Another avenue that the payday loan industry may pursue is litigation. Last week, Dennis Shaul, CEO of the Consumer Financial Services Association of America, told a reporter that his trade group would likely file a lawsuit seeking to overturn the CFPB rule in the next two to four weeks.
Shaul took a somewhat less confrontational approach this week. "CFSA is currently exploring its legal options," he said in an email. "We anticipate having more to say in the coming weeks."
Any lawsuit challenging the CFPB rule may have a better chance of success today than it would have had during the Cordray era, since the agency's new leadership seems loath to defend the regulation in court.
Judges who are hearing legal challenges to regulations typically give a significant amount of deference to the agency. But if the agency no longer stands behind its own rule, the court may be less inclined to defer, said Kevin Petrasic, a lawyer at White & Case.
"The whole issue of deference going to the agency becomes a little more difficult in that situation," he said.
One final avenue that payday lenders are pursuing is the repeal of the CFPB regulation by Congress, using a procedure established by the Congressional Review Act.
The repeal effort has bipartisan support in the House of Representatives, and it got a boost this week when Mulvaney voiced his support. But the payday industry still faces an uphill fight on Capitol Hill, since a vote in support of the payday loan industry, which many Americans see as predatory, could be politically treacherous.

The Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory announced on Tuesday that Jeff Drocco, an analyst and scientist at the lab's Bio-defense Knowledge Center, participated as a fellow in the Emerging Leaders in Bio-security Initiative.
He participated among 27 other fellows in the program run by the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center. Fellows met with several government officials from the Pentagon, the White House, the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence and other agencies.
"It was amazing," Drocco said. "Biosecurity is not a large field, and the program featured a real 'who's who' of the people who work in it. Part of the draw of the week also was to meet the other fellows, who represent a broad diversity of backgrounds, including public health and epidemiology, working at Department of Defense labs, coming from Canada and the U.K., industry and academia."
Topics that were covered among the three-day workshop included response to emerging diseases like the Ebola virus, protection methods against biological threats and agents and how policy is carried out at the executive level.
Drocco has worked with the lab since 2013 and holds a doctorate in biophysics from Princeton University. As part of the program application, candidates submitted essays on the field. Drocco's consisted of the topic of privacy rights in an age where genetic identification and sequencing is becoming more feasible.

My Review
I always have believed that... Life is a chaos, life is a mess. Is the way it is until we meet that person, who makes us complete.
I always have believed that the broken people are the ones who have the most beautiful hearts.
And I have to say that S.L. Scott, reaffirmed what I have thought all my life.
Life is a matter of living like you're going to die tomorrow, that is what everyone says. But inside us we have scars and wounds that are those rocks that held us back.
And Until I Met You, showed me that no matter how broken we are inside, we are capable of heal and find the light in the darkness lurking inside us.
Taylor and Judith, showed me that where is nothing could be everything, only if we try, only if we are ready to accept what we avoid. Closeness, love, somebody to trust.
And then Jude, the girl who saw happiness in everything, the girl that had learned to find the brightest spot in the obscurity of our monotonous lives. She found her Hazel, and she taught him, she opened his eyes... Where his life was empty, and just a simple life, Jude became his world, and the reason to live again.
This book teaches you, and a lot. If I begging to tell you I'd probably tell you the book, but you need to know that were is love is happiness, where everything is empty... there is something outside waiting to fill that emptiness inside you.
Hold on. One more day. Hold on. Love wasn't about reason. Love wasn't rational.
Love. Live. Cry. Feel. Do not waste time. Find what makes you feel everything, and let it burn inside you with passion.
"The world is our rainbow, Hazel."

NFL Team Report - Cleveland Browns - INSIDE SLANT
The Cleveland Browns closed a deal with free-agent strong safety Donte Whitner after T.J. Ward agreed to terms with the Denver Broncos hours after becoming an unrestricted free agent Tuesday.
NFL Team Report - Cleveland Browns - INSIDE SLANT
The Cleveland Browns closed a deal with free-agent strong safety Donte Whitner after T.J. Ward agreed to terms with the Denver Broncos hours after becoming an unrestricted free agent Tuesday.
The Browns are looking to solidify a secondary that was one of the strengths of the league's ninth-ranked pass defense in 2013.
Whitner, 28, could prove a precursor for an even bigger move, with the Browns showing significant interest in signing cornerback Darrelle Revis from the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, according to NFL.com. Revis was acquired by the Bucs from the New York Jets last offseason, but Tampa Bay is under a new direction with general manager Jason Licht and head coach Lovie Smith, who reportedly are wary of paying Revis' $16 million salary for 2014.
The Bucs released Revis Wednesday when he was due a $1.5 million roster bonus. The Oakland Raiders were also reportedly in the Revis chase as of Tuesday afternoon.
The Browns have one of the league's better cornerbacks in Joe Haden, but the other side of the field was vulnerable last season with teams regularly targeting Buster Skrine.
The Browns sent the Jets their first-round pick last year and a conditional fourth-round pick this year that becomes a third-round selection if Revis is on the roster March 13.
Revis was a Pro Bowl selection in 2013, but there were reports that he wasn't pleased with his role in the defensive system. The Bucs will have a new defense under Smith and coordinator Leslie Frazier, but the Browns would offer the same scheme as Revis played with the Jets.
In addition to Whitner, the Browns also signed linebacker Karlos Dansy in the opening minutes of the league year.
NFL Team Report - Cleveland Browns - NOTES, QUOTES
--The Bengals decided against matching the Browns' offer to restricted free agent Andrew Hawkins, clearing the way for the wide receiver to move a few hours up the road to an AFC North and in-state rival.
The Bengals made an official announcement on Tuesday that they elected not to bring back Hawkins, who received a four-year, $13.6 million offer sheet from the Browns. Hawkins will be paid $10.8 million in the first two years of the deal, according to NFL.com.
Cincinnati tendered Hawkins at the lowest level ($1.431 million) and because he entered the NFL undrafted, there is no compensation. Had they given him a $2.187 million tender, there would have been compensation of a second-round if the Browns had still given him an offer sheet.
The 5-foot-7 Hawkins could move into the starting lineup as a slot receiver for Cleveland. He would replace troubled wide receiver Davone Bess, who was recently released.
After missing the first eight games of 2013 while on injured reserve with an ankle problem, Hawkins finished the regular season with 12 catches for 199 yards and no touchdowns. In three seasons with the Bengals, the 28-year-old Hawkins had 86 receptions for 995 yards and four touchdowns.
Hawkins said of the Browns, "They're trying to win, they're trying to win now, they're trying to (assemble) an incredible roster and I think they've done great in free agency. Not even including myself, [but] the players they've been able to bring in just shows where their mind's at and I feel good about where the program is going."
--The Browns used the transition tag for the first time in franchise history when they used it on center Alex Mack. They used the franchise tag twice before, both times on kicker Phil Dawson. They tagged Dawson in 2011 and 2012. He left when he hit free agency in 2013.
--Quarterback Brian Hoyer's rehab from knee surgery is coming along so well in his mind he is no longer rehabbing. He says he is "working out" and vows to be ready for the beginning of the offseason program on April 7.
Hoyer is running five days a week, lifting three days a week and throwing to trainers as stationary targets three days a week. Recently he drove to the University of Akron to take advantage of their indoor facility and threw passes to Cecil Shorts III, a wide receiver from the Jacksonville Jaguars and a product of Mt. Union.
"It was good to throw to a moving target and an NFL caliber receiver," Hoyer said. "I'm going to try to hook up with some of the other guys. Maybe we can find somewhere inside to throw. It's going well."
--Wide receiver Davone Bess was released last week. The Browns were able to void a guaranteed portion of Bess' contract because he finished 2013 on the non-football illness list with personal issues.
A picture of Bess smoking what appeared to be a marijuana cigarette was posted on his twitter account in late December. Bess was arrested for displaying erratic behavior in Ft. Lauderdale International Airport in January.
--The Browns have no restricted free agents. Eight players that completed their third year in 2013 are all under contract.

Just when your hankies finally dried out, here comes Robert James Waller again.
The author of the out-of-nowhere best seller "The Bridges of Madison County" is back in the tear-jerking business with his latest book, "Slow Waltz in Cedar Bend" (Warner, $16.95).
"Waltz" -- another angst-in-Iowa romance between a lanky, would-be cowboy and a repressed married woman -- no doubt will benefit from the phenomenal success of "Bridges." In fact, it's No. 2, second only to its predecessor, on the Publishers Weekly best-seller list for last week.

We used to go to Joey's a lot for their CA burger and slices. We stopped when the owner over charged us by $7 for an already expensive side salad and threw $3 at us. What a jerk. Unpleasant, macho environment.
We always get our pizza to take home here. Consistently good - not the BEST pizza of my life, but very very good. They always have order ready on time and take care of customers. It's what I consider a medium crust - not ultra dough-y, but not thin and crispy either.

I am planning on building a stand up teardrop shape trailer this summer. I traded for a dual axle boat trailer because of my very tight budget. I plan on hauling a lot of 70" long pieces of wood in the trailer so I think the axle spacing actually works better with a boat trailer instead of a dual axle utility trailer. I bought some angle iron and watched a youtube video on welding. My only experience welding was with a stick welder in a high school shop class 20 years ago. This was my first time using a wire feed welder. I think I figured it out and did OK.
Not all of the welds looked this good but they are all solid.
I made a 13' long and 75" wide flat frame. It's ready for paint and deck boards now.

Jackspeak: Certain words or terminology that are commonly used in the Canadian Navy.
The Canadian Navy has it's own terminology and slang that is still evolving to this day. Much of the language used is still derived from the Royal Navy, although as Canadians many local customs and slang have come about.

Vandy coach not happy with Kyle 'Zoom' Fuller's tell-all book
(AnchorOfGold.com) NASHVILLE, Tenn. – According to a report that was released Tuesday, Vanderbilt head coach Kevin Stallings and a handful of former players are not happy with Kyle Fuller's decision to write a tell-all book that will document his time at the university. In fact, they may be playing dirty in order to keep him from releasing it.
Deadspin's Diana Moskovitz published an expose that details how several members of the Commodore basketball program are allegedly trying to prevent Fuller's book from seeing the light of day. Her report details texts that Stallings allegedly sent to Fuller's mother, emails and texts from basketball operations director Dan Cage, and a statement from Vice Chancellor David Williams himself.
What was Vandy so afraid of? In the end, it seems like nothing much more than the idea that Fuller's book might expose something everyone already knows—that Vanderbilt athletes are not necessarily chaste scholars who fit extracurricular activities in between rounds of studying Themistocles and the Planck constant—and in so doing tarnish the image of its athletic programs.
This image, which is worth millions of dollars, depends on the acceptance of a series of polite fictions for its maintenance; the irony of this story is that it's the way Vanderbilt defended it, much more than anything Kyle Fuller ever did, that best shows just how fictitious they are. – Diana Moskovitz for Deadspin.
The report suggests that Stallings's messages to Mrs. Fuller had a significant effect on Kyle, but ultimately failed to derail the Kickstarter he launched in order to gain financial backing for publishing. His project is currently $9,000 short of the goal needed to get Below the Rim bound and distributed – though there are fewer than 32 hours left for him to raise that money as of 1:30pm CST.
However, criticism from Vandy basketball alumni – and one critic who emailed his girlfriend excerpts from the book – may have had an even bigger impact on the former Commodore than Stallings's texts.
Within days more texts poured in, mostly former Vanderbilt players telling Fuller to stop. Castro said he saw a Snapchat to Fuller from one former player now in the NBA showing his screen with a copy of what they wrote on it. Someone also sent a copy to the father of the girl whom Fuller was dating, and she immediately dumped him. That was probably the worst thing, the co-authors said. Fuller had been dating the woman for a few months, and it had started to get serious.
We spoke with Kyle this fall, and the former point guard was direct in his assertion that his book would not throw Vanderbilt or the basketball program under the bus:
If these allegations are true, it seems as though Kevin Stallings is doing everything in his power to keep Kyle Fuller from going forward with his tell-all. However, it's tough to ignore the timing of this story. Deadspin's report comes at a time when Fuller's Kickstarter is going through it's final push, and he needs approximately $9,000 in donations to secure the backing he needs to go to print. If these discussions, texts, and emails came in August and September, why is this story breaking in December?
It's clear that this has become an issue with the Vanderbilt administration. The texts and emails Fuller and his team have provided to Moskovitz back that up. The university has been quiet in their response so far. We've reached out to the basketball staff for a comment, and we'll update the story as we hear more.
Update: A Vanderbilt student athlete who wished to remain anonymous adds his/her thoughts:
The Vandy athlete community is really tight- that being a result of how small we are, and how hard being a student at Vandy is. We eat all of our meals together in the Hendrix room, and support each other at each other's events… etc.
…The reason no one wants his book to get out is because it makes us look bad (Vandy athletes are smart and don't want to be associated with idiocy- his book downgrades the value of a Vandy education), and almost none of it is true. Stuff like this doesn't happen at Vandy, and if it did, it wouldn't happen to a guy like Kyle. So, if everyone could disregard what Kyle said (like we have been doing since he got here), that would be great. Go Dores.
Update 2: Co-author Eric Schulman comments on the timing of Deadspin's article:
This story has been in the works for over a month – five weeks now. Deadspin's fact checking process has been long and thorough, which led to the delay in getting Kyle's story published.
Update 3: Daniel Marks, who was one of Vanderbilt Basketball's team managers while Fuller was a member of the team, refutes Fuller's Deadspin story on Twitter:
Now that Kyle was cut from the DLeague, and his kickstarter is on the verge of not getting funded, he's trying to.bring down good ppl w/him
2:35 PM – 16 Dec 2014
Im sick to my stomach about all of this because its NOT TRUE. I cant let him be the only voice on this and get away w/trying to destroy ppl
2:37 PM – 16 Dec 2014

Gene-based treatment for Parkinson's disease
Status: Phase I/IIa study in preparation
Parkinson's disease
Parkinson's disease is caused by the degeneration of nerve cells in part of the brain, the substantia nigra. This leads to the loss of dopamine, which causes nerve cells to activate without normal control and leaves patients with symptoms such as tremor, muscle stiffness or slow physical movements. The cause of the nerve cell loss is unclear; however research indicates it is likely a combination of genetic and environmental factors.
Our approach
AXO–LENTI–PD is a second-generation gene therapy, which utilises Oxford BioMedica's LentiVector® platform technology to deliver three genes that encode key dopamine synthesis enzymes. When injected into the brain's striatum, AXO–LENTI–PD genetically modifies cells to produce dopamine, replacing that which is lost during the course of the disease. Unlike current drug treatment, which loses efficacy with long-term use, AXO–LENTI–PD is designed to provide patient benefit for a number of years following a single administration.
Proof of concept
Pre-clinical studies in the industry standard in vivo model of Parkinson's disease show a single treatment of the first generation product, OXB-101 (also named ProSavin®), resulted in almost complete movement recovery after five to eight weeks. The therapeutic effect was statistically significant (p=0.05) after two weeks, and the therapeutic effect was maintained throughout a 44-month follow-up.
Clinical status
Oxford BioMedica has successfully completed an OXB-101 Phase I/II study, which met its primary endpoint. The results, which were published in the Lancet, demonstrate favourable safety and tolerability and a statistically significant improvement of motor function six and 12 months post-treatment. Ongoing follow up shows this improvement has been sustained in the majority of patients for up to four years, despite the progressively degenerative nature of the disease.
Subsequent pre-clinical studies with the more potent vector construct AXO–LENTI–PD are also complete. These demonstrate direct transgene expression, which is increased relative to OXB-101, with behavioural and movement analysis indicating at least five-fold greater potency. Oxford BioMedica is working on the regulatory approval for a planned three cohort phase I/II study to be conducted in Cambridge and London, Uk and Paris, France.
Market opportunity
Parkinson's disease is an area of significant unmet medical need, presenting a major market opportunity. The disease affected 2.3 million patients in the US, Japan, UK, France, Germany, Italy and Spain in 2011, with the treatment market expected to reach US$3.5 billion in 2018.
Gene therapy for Stargardt disease
Licensed to Sanofi: Phase II ongoing
Stargardt disease
Stargardt disease is the most common degenerative retinal disease in young people, and affects approximately 80-100,000 in the US and EU. The disease is caused by mutation of the ABCR gene, which leads to the degeneration of photoreceptors in the retina causing vision loss.
Our approach
SAR422459 uses Oxford BioMedica's LentiVector® technology to deliver a corrected ABCR gene via a single administration directly to the retina, which offers a potentially long-term or permanent correction.
Proof of concept
SAR422459 has demonstrated efficacy in the industry standard pre-clinical model of Stargardt disease, in which a single administration was effective for the whole of the six-month study.
Clinical status
SAR422459 is licensed to Sanofi, which has progressed the product into Phase II development. Oxford BioMedica is entitled to future development milestones and royalty payments on SAR422459.
Market opportunity
There are no approved treatments available for Stargardt disease, and other therapeutic approaches do not target its root cause. Consequently, SAR422459 has received European and US Orphan Drug Designation. Oxford BioMedica estimates the market opportunity for SAR422459 totals approximately $500 million.

A man disguised with a fake beard and wearing a dark trench coat pulled a gun from his pocket and shot at two police officers who approached him in Queens on Friday afternoon, the police said.
Neither officer was injured when the man, described only as in his 30s, opened fire at the corner of 37th Road and 76th Street in the Jackson Heights section. He fled and was not caught. His fake beard, dark glasses and hat were recovered during the chase, the police said.
Passers-by had alerted the officers who were on patrol in the area of a man — whose beard was described by the police as "obviously fake" — behaving suspiciously about 4 p.m. When they asked him for identification, he pulled a black revolver from his pocket and fired twice, the police said.
A police report about the incident described the man as "well dressed," and surveillance video from the area provided by the New York City Police Department shows a man in a trench coat, wearing a tie, running down the pavement.
