Don’t forget mom — and that’s an order.

"For some U.S. Marines stationed in Iraq, forgetting Mother’s Day (it’s Sunday) is going to be a hard task to accomplish.

"At more than one outpost, signs have been put up on bulletin boards, command center walls and in chow halls. “By order of the [commanding officer],” one of the signs read, “every Marine will send a Mother’s Day card to their mother, their wife if they have kids, or the mother of their children.”

"The signs have left some Marines wondering if the Corps will provide them with camouflage, combat-ready greeting cards.

"Nevertheless, many of the Marines seemed relieved to be reminded that the day to thank their mothers is just around the corner."

Commercial Fishing Vessel Safety Examiners Association



Commercial fishing is one of our nation’s most hazardous industries.
The Coast Guard is committed to increasing safety in the fishing industry.
The main objective is to increase compliance
with the minimum safety requirements found in
Title 46 Code of Federal Regulation, Part 28—
Requirements for Commercial Fishing Industry Vessels.

"...Between 1999 and 2003, for the US, a total of 528 uninspected commercial fishing vessel
were lost and 291 fishermen died.

“These figures clearly demonstrate that the death rate for the uninspected commercial fishing vessel industry is unacceptable in comparison to other segments of the maritime industry and the American workforce in general,” the analysis stated.

Furthermore, data compiled from voluntary dockside examinations “show conclusively” that increased survival rates of both fishermen and vessels are directly proportional to the proper equipping and maintenance of safety gear on vessels, “particularly when the crew has been properly trained to use these systems effectively in emergency response scenarios.”

Yet the Coast Guard estimates that only six percent of the approximately 90,000 uninspected commercial fishing vessels in the US today have had the voluntary dockside examination..."

"You are so right about Schatz,s Bakery. Probably the best on planet earth. If you happen to be in a fine food and wine mood try the Mobil station in Lee Vining. That's not a typo- the Mobil station! They have excellent food, great views and an interesting mix of people."



Thanks for the suggestion. If the tiny museum is open we stop to chat with older gentleman who runs it. Outside is a steamshovel that reminds me of the classic children's book, "Mike Mulligan and His Steam Shovel" by Virginia Lee Burton.
