Macchio said about the prison: “*It’s not a place where you want to be for long. Most of the inmates have seen my stuff, and they were yelling out these remarks about me. A lot of it Ican’t repeat --it was

intense.’’ By the way they were at the prison for five days of shooting.

My comments - Go see the movie. It was very funny and light hearted. The acting was great. The chemis- try was terrific. To be honest I did not know what to expect, but it was definitely worth the money. Out of ten, I personally, would give itan 8.

(NC)}—Cannibalism is never an attrac— tive trait, even among fish. In the case of walleye, it’s a downright nuisance— especially for the people who want to raise the species artificially.

Walleye is one of Canada’s most popular freshwater species. It’s worth $8 million a year to commercial fish- ermen and is next only to trout and smelt as a recreational catch.

Unfortunately its numbers are dwindling from a peak of 10,000 ton- nes caught in the commercial fishery in the mid 1950s to less than half that in the 1990s.

The Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO) wants to restore the walleye population to historical levels and is looking to fish-farming as one way to do it.

This is where the cannibalism becomes a problem. It seems that walleye at the larval Stage prey upon each other if they’re packed in too tightly, as could be the case in rearing tanks. Between that and various un- knowns associated with feeding levels and water temperatures, young wall- eye have a 93-per-cent mortality rate under artificial rearing conditions.

To address these problems, DFO conducts a number of scientific projects

and, in conjunction with th Sciences and Engineering Council (NSERC), has 5 others at universities, most r the case of walleye, at the of Winnipeg.

What they have learned that walleye larvae tend to gether or disperse according ditions of lighting. Clump | together and they start mun each other. The task now is how many is too many, and design the lighting to encour to spread out. Scientists al that young walleye detect pre by their colour and contras roundings. The colour of therefore becomes an importar

Fisheries scientists ha\ great strides in learning hoy walleye, but questions rema is the best water temperatur are the best food rations and regimes? What causes ina swim bladder inflation, a prot affects many species?

DFO continues its sea those answers in its efforts f sport and commercial dem this delectable species.

Walleye is a popular sport fish in central and other parts of barade Avigisre usually bring them in at 0.5 to 1.5 kg. The wal necessarily a spectacular fighter when hooked but is a steady b tends to bore to the bottom. Problems associated with artific of this species are being addressed by Canada’s scientists.
