  • AN ABSTRACT of the THESIS of Michael James Thompson for The
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Michael James Thompson for the degree of Master of Science in Marine Resource Management presented on February 4, 2005. Title: Integrating Traceability with Onboard Handling to Enhance Product Quality and Marketability of Eastern Pacific Troll­caught Albacore Tuna (Thunnus alalunga). Abstract Approved:______________________________________________________ Gilbert Sylvia The fishing industry in the Pacific Northwest is a dynamic and highly competitive industry that must constantly respond to rapidly changing resource, regulatory and market forces. These forces have already had a significant impact on our fisheries and will continue to do so as we learn more about the biology and ecology of harvested species, and how this information can be used to effectively manage our fisheries. In addition, market forces, both here and abroad, including the push by some governments to improve food safety and consumer confidence, are also having an impact on the U.S. seafood industry. In an attempt to address these issues, the European Union (E.U.) recently enacted traceability legislation, now mandatory for seafood, which will require all U.S. businesses exporting to the E.U. to provide adequate traceability documentation on their products. This legislation will have an impact on many U.S. fisheries, including the troll­caught albacore fishery in the Eastern Pacific Ocean, which, after losing its traditional market, has recently relied heavily on exporting. Although the term traceability has been around for some time it is relatively new to the U.S. food industry and many in the seafood sector, who now face the possibility of mandatory traceability, have not yet considered all its implications.

  • Injury to James Thompson Derails 'Bellator: Unfinished
    Injury to James Thompson derails ‘Bellator: Unfinished Business’ heavyweight rematch, Dan Charles steps up against Bobby ‘The Dominator’ Lashley on short notice SANTA MONICA, Calif. (June 11, 2015) – While Kimbo Slice and Ken Shamrock are prepared to take care their “Unfinished Business” on June 19, Bobby Lashley and James Thompson’s score will need to be settled somewhere down the line. Thompson has been forced off the main card due to an undisclosed injury suffered during training and as a result, Dan Charles (9-2) has agreed to fill-in on short notice against “The Dominator.” The fight will still take place on the main portion of the Spike-televised card. Charles, will be making his fourth appearance for the Scott Coker-led promotion, last competing in the main event of 2014’s “Monster Energy Cup.” After dropping two fights, “The Man” has bounced back to with two straight wins to earn a shot against a heavyweight title contender the likes of Lashley. The 29-year-old Phoenix, Ariz. Native has ended seven of his nine victories before reaching the judges’ scorecards. A 6-foot-3 wrestling standout, Bobby “The Dominator” Lashley (12-2) started training in the grappling arts at age 12 and would go on to win several titles including three National Championships at Missouri Valley College, an NAIA National Championship, a CISM World Championship Silver Medal and two Armed Forces Wrestling Championships during his time in the U.S. Army. In addition to a professional wrestling career with stints in the WWE, ECW and TNA, Lashley began his MMA career in 2008, and he’s built an impressive career mark that includes Bellator MMA submission wins over Karl Etherington and Josh Burns.

  • Estimation of Transient Occupants on Weekdays and Weekends for Risk Exposure Analysis
    Osaragi Risk Exposure Analysis for Weekdays and Weekends Estimation of Transient Occupants on Weekdays and Weekends for Risk Exposure Analysis Toshihiro Osaragi Tokyo Institute of Technology [email protected] ABSTRACT Understanding the characteristics of the spatiotemporal distribution of a population, which varies according to the time of the day and the day of the week (weekday or weekend), is one of the most important issues in the field of urban disaster mitigation planning. However, the existing Person Trip Survey data based on weekdays is not appropriate for estimating the spatiotemporal distribution of population on weekends. In the present study, we proposed a method for converting existing Person Trip Survey data from a weekday base to a weekend base and examined the differences in the spatiotemporal distribution of the population. Using these databases, we attempted to compare the number of deaths due to building collapse estimated for weekdays and weekends for various districts in the Tokyo Metropolitan area. Keywords Risk exposure, weekday/weekend, spatiotemporal distribution, person trip survey, collapsed building. INTRODUCTION It is vital to have an accurate grasp of the constantly varying spatiotemporal distribution of transient occupants of the metropolitan region, including their ages, reasons for travel and other variables, in order to draw up detailed plans for disaster mitigation (Fukushima and Nakano, 1999). Until now, however, estimates of human casualties have relied on the static distribution of population provided by the national census and other counts (Osaragi and Hoshino, 2012). Thus, many recent-approved studies are based on a seismic intensity map, and only consider resident population from the census data (Smith, Martin and Cockings, 2014; Martin, Cockings and Leung, 2015).

All these people were there for me when I was at the bottom and therefore they deserve to be there when I will be at the top To my father and mother, because they gave life to me and fully supportedmy studies abroad.It must have been very difficult to let their oldest son leave home for five years. But now I am done and can return back home. To my beautiful and smart wife, who loves me unconditionally. Her every day support and advices were the boost I needed to overcome this challenge. Her presence changed me from a boy to a man who is not afraid of taking any risk and keeps his word. To my lovely son, who brought so much joy to my life. His smile keeps me going and pushes me to step out of my comfort zone in order to achieve my goals. He motivates me to be a better person every day and act as a role model for him.
