- Britain's real fish fight | Callum Roberts
Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall rightly criticises fishing practices – but a discard ban must be joined by other tough measuresHugh Fearnley-Whittingstall has set his sights on several of the fishing industry's dirty secrets in a series aired this week on Channel 4's three-part Big Fish Fight series. The first programme looked at the practice of discarding, whereby fishermen are compelled by EC rules to throw away perfectly good fish that they have no quota for, while pursuing fish that they do. The images of basket after basket of wholesome fish flung back dead were powerful and disturbing, and Fearnley-Whittingstall was right to shine a spotlight on this disgraceful practice.But he left the impression that the seas around Britain are bursting with fish. They are not. Stocks have fallen dramatically, and across the board. The scale of this decline can only be grasped by taking a long view. The UK government started to keep fisheries records in the 1880s. Hugh sailed aboard a bottom trawler that catches a mix of fish in nets dragged over the seabed, so let's look at the fortunes of this particular industry. In 1889, the year records began, we landed 4.3 times more fish into England and Wales than we do today from a fleet made up mainly of small sailing boats.Landings peaked in 1938, at 14 times more fish than we land today. But today's boats are far more powerful than those used in the past. When you take into account this difference, the contrast is even more stark. Peak landings per unit of fishing power were 17 times higher in 1889 than they are today. In other words, fishermen have to work 17 times harder to catch fish now compared to 1889 (or rather their machines and electronics do). The simple reason is that stocks have declined massively.Another strand of Channel 4' ヒューファーンリー- Whittingstallは当然漁業慣行を批判 - しかし、禁止はシリーズで釣り業界の汚い秘密のいくつかの彼の視力を設定されている他の厳しいmeasuresHughファーンリー- Whittingstallが参加する必要があります破棄3つの部分からビッグフィッシュチャンネル4の上で今週放映ファイトシリーズ

- Pistol found at scene of Yorkshire siege
Police recover illegally owned gun from house where Alistair Bell was shot dead after night-long standoffPolice have recovered an illegally owned 9mm self-loading pistol from the Yorkshire terrace house where a man was shot dead on Tuesday after an eight-hour police siege.Investigators from the Independent Police Complaints Commission revealed that their inquiry into the incident had been delayed by fears that Alistair Bell, 42, might have rigged his home in Kirkheaton, near Huddersfield, with homemade explosives. Bell, who had been jailed for nine years for violent offences and illegal ownership of a shotgun, was shot by a police marksman after repeatedly firing at officers during a night-long standoff.His house was surrounded late on Monday night after unarmed officers called about alleged threats against neighbours. A 29-year-old constable was shot in the back during the siege, but saved from serious injury by his anti-stab vest. Bell was shot dead at 5.30am after a renewed volley of shots.Firearms specialists are checking the home of a neighbour whose house was hit by three bullets fired by Bell.Roger Thistlethwaite, 71, a retired engineer, said that bullets lodged in the walls of his home, fewer than 100 yards from Bell's house, while he watched TV on Monday night. One passed about 2ft above his head after smashing through a window and splintering his living room door.A second bullet hit a drainpipe while a third was embedded in pointing on his outside wall.Another neighbour in Cockley Hill Lane, on the edge of the village of Kirkheaton, said a ricocheting round appeared to hit another officer while he fixed a spotlight on top of a wheelie bin.A spokesman for the IPCC said that only one officer had been injured, and no explosives were found in Bell's house.The loca 警察は不法アリベルは夜の長いstandoffPolice後に射殺された男は8時間警察siege.Investigators後の火曜日に射殺されたヨークシャーテラスハウスから違法中古9ミリメートル自己ローディングピストルを回復して家から銃を所有して回。独立警察苦情委員会は、事件に彼らのお問い合わせは、アリベルは、42、自家製爆薬、ハダースフィールド近くKirkheatonの自宅を不正かもしれないとの懸念により延期されていたことが明らかになったから

- Elizabeth Edwards | Michael Tomasky
How bizarre that it was just two days ago that word came that Elizabeth Edwards' doctors recommended against further treatment, a step that suggests the person's time is short, but still measured in weeks, usually; and then boom, it was just yesterday that she passed away at 61 from breast cancer.I always feel a poignancy about people like this who didn't ask for the spotlight but were thrust into it. The one false step I felt she made was that time she stood there with her husband in March 2007 to announce that though her cancer had returned, John's campaign would continue. That was mostly on him of course, and it was one of many signs that made me really suspicious of the guy: your wife's cancer starts attacking her again and you're not suspending your campaign? It's quite possible that she was complicit in this against her will, in that way political wives often have to be.But far overwhelming that, she handled many difficult public stresses with grace in the last few years. Can you imagine being humiliated by a jackass spouse in front of the world and having to fight cancer; having to leave him while knowing that it meant that your life partner wouldn't be there with you for the end of the battle? And then still working in the public arena for the things she believed in. And on top of all that, she had to bury a child, which is clearly the worst thing that can happen to a person in this life (I know; my parents had to).She took her share of criticism for standing by her husband for a long time, some of it, as I recall, from me. But now the balance sheets are in, and I think they show clearly that she faced hideous circumstances and handled them with increasing dignity. I hope much work on breast cancer and other health-related issues she cared about is carried on in _NULL_

- World Bank Vet Seeks $60 Million To Back Entrepreneurs
The microfinance sector, once praised as a powerful tool for eradicating poverty, is in the midst of well-documented turmoil. In the Indian state of Andrha Pradesh, a rash of suicides by indebted villagers provoked a backlash against the industry. Grameen Bank founder Muhammad Yunus is fighting a protracted political battle in his home country of Bangladesh, where the government recently ousted him from his post. Public offerings by companies like SKS Microfinance— which raised $358 million in an IPO that valued the company at $1.5 billion— cast a spotlight on fortunes being made in the industry. A team of MIT economists, after studying the impact of microfinance on a new market, determined that it has “no discernible effect on education, health, or womens’ empowerment.” マイクロファイナンス部門は、かつてよく文書化された混乱の真っ只中にある、撲。貧困のための強力なツールとして賞賛した
- Women in management: Calculated risk | Editorial
Quotas are not the whole answer to the problem of low female representation in the boardroom – but they're a startThe spotlight of public attention is on one of its regular sweeps over women in management. This week a City figure comes out against quotas as a way of increasing the proportion of women in the boardroom. Lord Davies of Abersoch, commissioned by the government to recommend action to raise the number of female directors in top companies, wants monitoring and transparency. A second report will probably show that women just aren't trying to get the top jobs. For another of the week's headlines is that women are self-limiting. Lack of confidence and ambition, not a lack of opportunity, the Institute for Leadership and Management says, explains why barely one in eight directors of FTSE 100 companies are women. But here is the odd one out. An LSE report earlier this month found that nearly three-quarters of women under 24 anticipate starting their own business. Put the three reports together, and maybe a truer picture of what is going on will emerge.First, quotas are not the whole answer: in pioneering Norway, the number of women directors has fallen back from nearly half to less than 40% amid reports that quotas have led to personally damaging appointments. Some women Labour MPs might sympathise with the nightmarish consequences of being propelled into high-visibility, high-risk roles with inadequate preparation and a noisy mob willing you to fail. But they should be consoled by the evidence that quotas have also been transformative. They have broken a vicious circle. Theresa May and Yvette Cooper can take each other on across the dispatch box without anyone discussing their appearance.

- Fox's mistaken view of Afghanistan needs correction | Nushin Arbabzadah
Liam Fox's comments on '13th-century' Afghanistan show a failure to understand its problems are contemporary by natureThe recent comment from Britain's new defence secretary, Liam Fox, describing Afghanistan as a broken country stuck in the 13th century, has offended Afghan officials, triggering responses that are equally off the mark factually and diplomatically fruitless.The throwaway remark by the British minister is surprising. After all, by contrast to their US counterparts, British officials tend to be well-travelled and worldly, reducing the risk of clumsy and offensive remarks about foreign countries. Besides, traditionally, there are cultural norms in the UK that endorse the practice of commonsense and tempering one's comments when speaking in public.But it appears that outbursts with potential to create unnecessary tension are becoming more widespread globally, and constant exposure to the media spotlight appears to also have increased the chance of public figures being caught saying the wrong thing at the wrong time. Given that, in recent decades, the world has become more sensitive to the necessity of mutual respect between richer and poorer countries, the British minister's comments are unfortunate, marking a return to old-fashioned values that no longer have a place in today's interconnected, globalised world of mutual interdependency.Be that as it may, aside from reflecting a lack of cultural sensitivity, Fox's comment is also an echo of his poor understanding of the root causes of the crisis in Afghanistan. It has nothing to do with the 13th century and is very much linked to the social and political trends of the contemporary era.To begin with, the cold-war rivalry between two powerful, antagonistic industrialised empires that initiated the crisis in Af 。。u0026#39;13th世紀のアフガニスタンのリアムフォックスのコメントは失敗、その問題を理解するには、showは、現代的な英国の新しい国防長官、リアムフォックスからnatureThe最近のコメント、壊れた国13世紀で立ち往生、アフガニスタンを記述する、アフガニスタン当局は、トリガ怒らている同じようにマークをオフ事実、イギリス大臣外交fruitless.The使い捨て発言され、応答は驚くべきことである
- The real cost of cheap oil | John Vidal
The Gulf disaster is only unusual for being so near the US. Elsewhere, Big Oil rarely cleans up its messBig Oil is holding its breath. BP's shares are in steep decline after the debacle in the Gulf of Mexico. Barack Obama, the American people and the global environmental community are outraged, and now the company stands to lose the rights to drill for oil in the Arctic and other ecologically sensitive places.The gulf disaster may cost it a few billion dollars, but so what? When annual profits for a company often run to tens of billions, the cost of laying 5,000 miles of booms, or spraying millions of gallons of dispersants and settling 100,000 court cases is not much more than missing a few months' production. It's awkward, but it can easily be passed on.The oil industry's image is seriously damaged, but it can pay handsomely to greenwash itself, just as it managed after Exxon Valdez, Brent Spar and the Ken Saro-Wiwa public relations disasters. In a few years' time, this episode will probably be forgotten – just another blip in the fortunes of the industry that fuels the world. But the oil companies are nervous now because the spotlight has been turned on their cavalier attitude to pollution and on the sheer incompetence of an industry that is used to calling the shots.Big Oil's real horror was not the spillage, which was common enough, but because it happened so close to the US. Millions of barrels of oil are spilled, jettisoned or wasted every year without much attention being paid.If this accident had occurred in a developing country, say off the west coast of Africa or Indonesia, BP could probably have avoided all publicity and escaped starting a clean-up for many months. It would not have had to employ booms or dispersants, and it could have ignored the 湾。災害は異常なさですので、アメリカの近く

- The Roma: Europe's pariah people
The Roma lost out when Eastern Europe prospered after its release from Soviet dominationThe Roma, the EU's biggest ethnic minority, scattered across a dozen countries, are Europe's pariah people. Thanks to Nicolas Sarkozy, they are a lot less forgotten and ignored than they were a fortnight ago.The outrage stirred by France's policy of getting EU citizens to sign papers, give them 300 euros, have police escort them on to planes back to Bucharest and Sofia, and call them volunteers has shone a spotlight on the fate of the estimated 12 million Roma in the EU, the vast majority of them in the Balkans and central Europe.In the democratic revolutions that released that region from Soviet domination 20 years ago, the Roma were the big losers. For most people, democracy brought new liberties, higher living standards and integration with the west. It also brought populist Gypsy-bashing, scapegoating, ghettoes, forced sterilisation, and the sending of their offspring to schools for children with learning difficulties.With Romania, Bulgaria, Hungary, Slovakia, and the Czech Republic all in the EU and all home to large Roma populations, the Gypsies are now EU citizens, too, and have the right to go wherever they like.Now eastern Europe's crisis is morphing into western Europe's Gypsy dilemma, increasing the chances of something being done about it. France is hardly alone. The Austrians, the Danes, the Swedes and the Italians have been expelling European Roma immigrants. The Germans are preparing to kick out 12,000.But much more quietly, not seeking to make political capital the way Sarkozy, his Rottweiler Europe minister, Pierre Lellouche, and others have been successfully stealing votes from the extreme right and improving their ratings by explicitly blaming the Roma for prostitu 東欧は、ソ連dominationTheローマ、EUの最大の少数民族、十数カ国に散らばっから、そのリリース後に繁栄するローマが失われた、ヨーロッパ社会ののけ者の人々です

Tiger Woods' recent divorce has brought the issue of prenuptial agreements firmly into the spotlight. Rumoured to be worth more than US$2 billion, he is thought to have paid his now former wife "only" US$100 million. And the reason is said to be a solid prenuptial agreement.

- South Africa's World Cup can make education a reality for all | George Weah
Africa's future depends on education for its children and the global spotlight of the World Cup can help this dream come trueFive years ago, at the age of 38, I went back to school. I had played football for 20 years for some of the best clubs in the world but had never had the chance to finish my education. So I moved to Florida and enrolled at Devry University. I am majoring in Business Administration and will be graduating next summer with a bachelor degree.I am one of the lucky ones; I can afford to pay for my education and can travel to the United States to get it. It was not always like this for me. When I was growing up in Monrovia, the capital of Liberia, I sold doughnuts, popcorn and Cool Aid every day after school so that my family had some money and I could pay my school fees. It was a tough life. My father died when I was young and I was raised by my grandmother, Emma Klonjlaleh Brown. We could afford to eat chicken just once a year – at Christmas.Football gave me a chance that few other Liberians have had. Around 80% of Liberians are unemployed and only half of all children go to primary school. Just one in 20 go on to secondary school. Young children are on the streets instead of in the classrooms. We are not giving them the opportunity to learn and they will struggle to get jobs when they grow up. Without proper education, Liberia will not progress.It is a similar story across the continent. I believe education should be a right for every child but tragically in many parts of world it is a privilege for certain children whose parents have money. There are 72 million children in the world who don't go to school and many of them are in Africa.There is nothing as important as education. It prepares you for your long-term goals. It helps you comprehend the wo アフリカの未来はその子とW杯のグローバルスポットライトのための教育にtrueFive年前に来て、38歳の時にこの夢を助けることができる依存、私が学校に戻って行った
- Euro's existential dilemma strains European unity
Viability of euro is in the interest of economic powerhouses of US and China as the debt crisis hinders global economic recoveryIs the dream of the single European currency descending into the nightmare of disintegration? The idea would have been unthinkable even a few short months ago. But as German Chancellor Angela Merkel admitted as she tried to muster support for the EU rescue package in the Bundestag, the euro faces an existential test.In the decade after its birth, it seemed to confound the critics who argued such diverse economies could not be yoked together.Nations such as Portugal, Spain and Greece – which only a few decades previously had been underdeveloped political dictatorships – appeared to have been put on the fast track to prosperity.Much of the success, however, was illusory. The euro was fine as a boom-time construct but the Greek crisis has shone a spotlight on deep structural faultlines.The most basic flaw is that the single currency is a halfway house. Monetary policy, which determines exchange rates and borrowing costs, is in the hands of the European Central Bank, but fiscal policy – control of tax and public spending – remains with national governments. That meant countries such as Greece, Spain and Portugal were able to benefit from interest rates tailored to thrifty German exporters while ignoring the need for a corresponding Teutonic fiscal discipline, squandering their single currency dividend on spending and asset-price booms rather than improving their competitiveness.The tensions have pushed the eurozone into frightening new territory, but breaking up at this point would be a nuclear option. It is true that weaker nations could exit the euro and reintroduce a devalued national currency to boost their exports, but any benefit from that wo ユーロの生存は、債務危機は、米国と中国の経済大国の利益にあるグローバル経済recoveryIsを欧州単一通貨崩壊の悪夢に降順の夢を阻害?アイデアは想像を絶するもほんの数ヶ月前にされていると思います

- Why nearly 9 million small children die every year
Progress has been made on cutting the death toll among children under-5, but a major new study shows that 8.8 million children are still dying and the Millennium Development Goal on child mortality will not be met without more work, particularly among women in childbirth and their babies.Most of the deaths of children under-5 worldwide are from infectious illnesses, with pneumonia (18%) as the leading cause, followed by diarrhoea (15%) and then malaria (8%). This is the conclusion of a major statistical exercise undertaken by Professor Robert Black from the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health in Baltimore and colleagues, funded by the WHO and Unicef and published in the Lancet, here.The study is important because it gives us up-to-date information on the numbers of child deaths - 8.8 million under-5s die every year, they say - and the causes. And it is a timely marker. As the authors point out:Achievement of Millennium Development Goal 4, to reduce child mortality by two-thirds, is only possible if the high numbers of deaths are addressed by maternal, newborn, and child health interventions.Some progress has been made in bringing down the numbers of deaths among toddlers and young children, which has meant that the proportion among babies less than 28 days old is now larger than before, at 41% of the total. And this is where the spotlight again shifts to maternity care. Pre-term birth complications account for 12% of all under-5 deaths, birth asphyxia for 9% and sepsis for 6%.To nobody's surprise, Africa has the largest number of deaths, at 4.2 million a year, followed by Asia, with 2.39 million. There were more deaths in older children in Africa than than in southeast Asia, because of HIV and malaria.Almost half of all the deaths under the age of 5 occurred 進捗状況は、歳未満の子供5死亡者数を削減、しかし主要な新しい研究によると880万子供たちがまだ子供の死亡率のミレニアム開発目標を死んでいる行われている多くの作業なしに、特に女性の間で出産に会ったされません子供たちの死の下- 5世界のそのbabies.Mostは伝染病から、肺炎(18%)の主要な原因として、下痢(15%)し、マラリア(8%)続いている
