Much of the settlement and commerce of early Newfoundland was built from trade in cod fish. Indeed John Cabot in the 1600s said the cod were so thick you could walk across the water on their backs (only a bit of an exaggeration). The Ryan Premises was established in 1879 to buy salt cod from the inshore fishermen; salting was an early way to preserve fish (and meat) before the advent of refrigeration. Salt cod from Bonavista was a major part of international diets with fleets of schooners carrying fish to markets around the world. With the rise of factory ships to freeze cod, and the collapse of the cod fishery, Ryan Premises finally closed down in 1978. The Portuguese fishing fleet was a major player in fishing and salting cod and I have some old photos that I took of their schooners in St. John harbour. I've eaten salt cod (bacalao) in Portugal; not my personal favourite.

A vivid pink cargo ship, "ONE HARBOUR," adds a bold and colorful touch to Hamburg’s bustling port. Contrasting against the industrial backdrop of stacked shipping containers and cranes, this eye-catching vessel stands out as a symbol of modern maritime transport. With seagulls in flight and deep blue waters below, this scene captures the dynamic energy of international shipping and trade.
With the recrew on board, Canadian National train Q198 marches into Stevens Point, WI on a dreary overcast day in July headed for Chicago.
The temperature was in the high 30s ºF (just above freezing at 5ºC) so it felt like I am inside one big chiller. To add to the cold, silence permeates the air in the downtown area near City Hall. No one was around to interrupt the stillness of the benches in Federal Plaza except perhaps for the police. What was also unusual however was the bright color combination in the park. Who would have thought that somber and dark NY will sport purples and greens?

These locomotives were often referred to as Tabakloks. This is because Bulgaria paid for them by shipping tobacco to Switzerland in exchange for the locomotives. The transaction took place in the depths of the worldwide Great Depression, and each nation had products that the other could use. Bulgaria needed locomotives, and was without sufficient currency to pay for them. Switzerland wanted tobacco, and was in similarly dire economic straits. Creative negotiations resulted in a deal that benefited both sides. Other locomotives of the same design were built in Germany and Poland, so that there were eventually 23 members of the 01 series of 2-8-2 engines--6 of those were Winterthur "tabakloks".
The DR, and DB, Class 41 locomotives, built beginning in 1936, were very similar in all dimensions and in performance. However, the firebox is larger in the Bulgarian locomotives since they were designed to burn coal with lower heat content and thus required larger grates.
The German-owned machines were painted black overall, with red running gear, but otherwise were easily recognizable as being near-twins to the Bulgarian 01 series.

A century or two ago, these wharves were a hive of activity with ships ocnstantly unloading their holds.
Before moving into environmental politics (and the national parks), my research and teaching focused on the political economy of international trade. So, of course I thought of Paul Samuelson's 1948 Factor Price Equalization Theorem when I saw this scene at the Hot Springs Historic District in Big Bend National Park.
The scene also illustrates a common practice studied by economic anthropologists, the silent trade. (Marcel Mauss, "The Gift," is the locus classicus.) A community may leave out gifts for a neighboring community, who will take the gifts and leave gifts of their own. If both sides are happy with the rate of exchange, the gift-giving (or trade) continues.
Here, Mexican artists leave craft goods for American tourists, who pay for the goods by putting money in the can at left. The Department of Homeland Security defines this practice as "smuggling" and may confiscate the items if you purchase them.
And, yes, I'm a lot of fun at parties.

The Bosphorus remains one of the busiest shipping lanes on earth. It's also visually striking. This photograph was taken from a balcony at Topkapi Palace, a great vantage point from which to see both Europe (on the left) and Asia (on the right) as well as to experience a sense of how life was in the royal court of the Ottoman sultans.
M/V Argolikos is owned by Dioryx Maritime Corporation of Greece, and is the first vessel constructed by Hanjin Subic Shipyard. The ship displaces 41,000 tons and was built at a cost of $60 million US. Argolikos is 258.9 meters in length, 32 meters wide, 19 meters high, and sails at 24.6 knots. This trip through the Bosphorus is likely part of the return leg of her first voyage for her owner.
