The region’s early European settlers gave these separate colonies names like yellow fins, buckskins, grease balls, and moss trout. Initially, the most effective method these men had for catching the trout was to let an angry hooked trout drag the boat around until it grew tired enough for the men to pull it out of the water. Native American tribes would net and spear the trout when they migrated to shallow water to spawn every fall, using the upcoming winter weather as a natural storage mechanism. Even as commercial fishing took off and led to concerns about overharvesting, yields remained remarkably high—by Egan’s account, 8 million pounds of lake trout were being pulled out of Lake Michigan every year at the turn of the 20th century.
The cadres that Xi has elevated to his inner circle are all yes-men, including one who oversaw a terrible Shanghai lockdown last year. Above all, Xi is dedicated to amassing power for himself and for the state . During his next term — which may last the rest of his life — Xi’s Maoist ideology will drive all economic decision-making, just as it’s driving every other aspect of life in China from education to public health. Investors — dizzy with concerns about inflation and the war in Ukraine — are still coming to grips with what it means to have an authoritarian superpower as the factory of the world.
In years of plenty, they resume devouring everything in their path, from plankton and insects to other fish. This incredible flexibility and longevity allowed the lake trout to form specialized colonies “uniquely adapted to thrive in the areas it colonized,” Egan writes. Bottom-dwelling trout developed eyes closer to the tops of their heads; those near streams adapted to migrate upstream to spawn like salmon, while those in deep water grew more body fat to remain buoyant near the lake’s floor.
A tiny Florida beach town is rebuilding after a hurricane. Is it becoming a preserve of the rich?
But for Throneburg, authenticity is just as important to his campaign as his party membership, and he believes it will help him connect with voters who may have never considered voting for a Democrat. Scammers lure potential victims by pretending to an old friend, a new friend, a wrong number or a lover through a text message or social media apps. The long con eventually convinces victims to invest in a bogus cryptocurrency website. “Well, in terms of stepping back from the ocean, no,” answered Farrell. But in terms of municipal code officials enforcing very rigorously the accepted FEMA and other building codes for wave action, he said the houses on Long Beach Island mostly withstood the storm.
In some ways, the 18-mile hike tested our mettle even more than the longer Whitney hike. I distinctly remember the ache in my legs after rising above the treeline, left with nothing but white rock and blue sky ahead. Former officials frequently circumvent these limitations on their old campaign funds by declaring they are running for some undesignated “future” elected office on campaign finance reports.
Whole sections of towns in the Bayshore region that were hit hard by Sandy’s storm surge had to be raised higher off the ground to qualify for flood insurance after flood maps were changed to reflect a new reality. That not only cost tens of thousands of dollars, but it also required that electrical systems and living quarters could no longer be on the ground floor. Those rising prices for real estate, at the same time, have also brought greater gentrification to the Shore. Andrews observed that many long-time residents have been displaced by “new risk-takers” who have further bid up the price of properties and are willing to pay cash — not needing the approval of a bank to loan money on what could be a questionable investment. The desire to be on the water typically swamps any fear of losing everything, he said, with buyers closing their eyes to the fact that storms can wipe out everything as easily as the tide erases footsteps in the sand.

For the past few decades the reports have said that China is in a “strategic period of peace and opportunity” and that the “world is in an era of peace and development.” By cutting these two phrases, it’s clear that Xi is increasingly worried about China’s position in the world. On paper — that is to say, in research notes and in marketing materials — Wall Street is still playing nice. This is a necessity, as Beijing has made it clear to the big banks that they are not to say anything negative about China’s economy or actions to investors and the public. But in precarious moments like these, it is important to watch what Wall Street says not just on paper but also in person. And if you listen closely, you can hear just how shaken Wall Street’s faith in China and its markets has become. Xi has tightened his grip on China’s economy and government from education to public health.
If you’d like to try hiking San Gorgonio Mountain, you’ll need to obtain a free wilderness permit. I strongly recommend waiting until the warmer months, though it’s possible with the right experience and equipment to summit during the winter too. Begin tracking them down at Snow-Line Orchard, an apple farm, winery and cidery founded in 1898 (Hodenfield described it as one of Oak Glen‘s “old, cozy relics”). In addition to its hard apple ciders and wines, the orchard is known for its mini cider doughnuts served with a sprinkle of house-blended cinnamon sugar.
