The observational evidence pertinent to possible kick mechanisms in neutron stars

We examine available observations on pulsars for evidence pertaining to mechanisms proposed to explain the origin of their velocities. We find that mechanisms predicting a correlation between the rotation axis and the pulsar velocity are ruled out. Also, that there is no significant correlation between pulsar magnetic field strengths and velocities. With respect to recent suggestions postulating asymmetric impulses at birth being solely responsible for both the spins and velocities of pulsars, single impulses of any duration and multiple extended duration impulses appear ruled out.Comment: 7 pages.

Commercial prospects for farming spiny lobsters

Tropical spiny lobsters are fast growing and highly adaptable to captive condition

Overview of lobster farming- Winter School on Recent Advances in Breeding and Larviculture of Marine Finfish and Shellfish

Lobsters are high valued seafood with well established export markets around the world and form extremely important fisheries in many countries. World’s production of palinurid lobsters mostly originate from Australia, New Zealand, Cuba, Brazil, South Africa, USA and Mexico. The annual world catch of lobsters is 2, 33,825 t (2005) valued at US $ 2108 million. Total landing of spiny lobsters is 71925 t (2004)
