Wavepiston - Wave Powered Desalination And Electricity
But... but... Republicans will say they look ugly under the ocean! Just like Trump said Wind mills are eyesores!
Back to the science of it. I wonder how much energy these oscillating plates can generate Wh? Their movements don't seem to be that much. Factor in the construction cost, damage/maintenance from salt water erosion, large fish bumping into it, the weather, etc. It might be feasible for small island communities/nations, but countries with a large landmass to coastal access ratio... its contribution to the overall energy sector might not be that significant. But every little bit of renewable, environmental risk-free energy helps, so, good stuff!

Alan Watts - The Road to Hell is Paved with Good Intentions
IDK seems like mostly crap, actually.
Smallpox and vitamins? Seriously?
Most other examples and allegories are similarly silly.
If we cant tell what is virtuous unless we stop looking how does Watts know what is virtuous? Is he not the one pulling a fish out of water to save it from drowning? How can he tell? How can anyone? Whatever. We cant lose if we stop running, right?

$800 million obstacle course fish zapper
Technically no, it's not about ballast tanks, but in a larger sense it's about stopping the spread of the carp. I'm just pointing out that no matter how well they block the river, there are other ways the fish can enter the lakes.
Also, as the video indicated, the methods have already failed since they've found the fish in the river past all the barricades.
I wonder what they've done to stop flooding from bypassing the barricades altogether.
I've been interested in this issue for decades, ever since the earlier videos of jumping fish smacking boaters started showing up. These days they allow electric fishing and other ecologically unfriendly methods in a last ditch effort to slow the spread, and none of it's working. If only someone would open a fish emulsion factory and make catching them an economically viable industry, maybe progress would be made....or not.
I guess my point is, is that ballast tanks are not an issue this fish net is trying to address. From what this video shows, it's exclusively about fish swimming in from this particular river.

There’s a HUGE hole in this multi layered fish net....ballast tanks.

Most invasive marine species are transported by shipping vessels that use massive tanks inside the hull to balance and stabilize the ship. They suck in or release water when they’re loaded and unloaded. These expensive fish deterrents do nothing to stop fish hitching a ride. It will only take one female and one male, or one clutch of fertilized eggs to make all these efforts moot.
There is little chance any amount of engineering will stop them.
The flight that almost killed me
I just a love a good dad story.
When I was about 10 years old, dad and I went fishing down to the Delaware River between NJ and PA. We would walk across the railroad bridge and make our way to the top of the pier and fish from there.

As we walked with our fishing poles and fishing box across the railroad ties he would tell me stories from when he was a kid. Told me his older brother tried to get my dad to jump from the bridge into the river. My Uncle had done this many times but dad had no desire to try it.
He said my Uncle tried to push him off the bridge once but dad held on real tight to one of the steel girders.
He told me, if I looked real close at that 2nd girder over there, I could still see his fingerprints embedded in it.
I think I laughed for 5 minutes straight.

When I was 17, my dad took me to some cliffs south of San Francisco to learn how to hang glide. The class met at a cliff to watch experienced pilots take off before going to a practice slope. The first launch we watched took off, made a smooth arcing turn, and crashed at full speed directly into the vertical cliff about 150' high and fell. He broke both legs at the least, but survived at least long enough for the ambulance to get there.
Dad cancelled my class, I never learned to fly.

Rand Paul spars with ABC host over election integrity
If untrustworthiness is your point then how do you tolerate citizen Trump?
Just a rhetorical question. No need for a reply. Take the rest of the day off and relax out on the lake with your pole in the water and catch some fish. Life is short.
This points out it great clarity how biased / untrustworthy the media is.

Are you saying Bob is a gay fish?
So he finally snapped eh? Bob, don't do anything crazy. I told you, it's okay.
You got duped. It happens. The guy has been a con man his whole life. He gets by on lying to people. He's good at it. He has an unusual strategy that some people find charismatic. But he's not telling you the truth man. He's just not.
Understand my frustration here, I feel like Carlos Mencia in the fishsticks episode https://southpark.cc.com/topics/qlthm1/gay-fish/wtrl1l
He's off his rocker.

"we got to get rid of the weak congresspeople, the ones that aren’t any good, the Liz Cheneys of the world, we got to get rid of them. We got to get rid of them.
Its about voting out RINOs and Democrats. Get a grip.
The election was stolen by fraud. All know it.
