- 03/31/08 05:38 PM
Seafood Watch is an online consumer's guide to seafood options which are sustainable and good for you at the same time. The organization makes recommendations to the public about which seafood choices are best for ocean fisheries and fish farms from an environmental standpoint.

For example, the Guide names Monkfish, Shark, Red Snapper, imported wild Sturgeon Caviar and Bluefin tuna as species which "are caught or … (8 comments)

This morning, I had to rely on experience to get me out of a jam. I started out the day commenting on a couple of posts here on AR. But about 9 a.m., I dragged myself away from the computer and drove to Saint Paul, to perform the Dvorak Mass in D at the Church of Saint Agnes. We perform these Latin Masses with full chorus and orchestra about twenty sundays a year. The vocalists are members of the Twin Cities Catholic Chorale and many of the instrumentalists are current or former members of the Minnesota Orchestra.
