Tue Sep 12, 2006 MIAMI - Hurricane Gordon formed over the open Atlantic on Tuesday, and a new tropical depression formed off the coast of Africa, forecasters said.
Meanwhile, Hurricane Florence sped toward its demise into the cooler waters off Canada's maritime provinces after battering Bermuda, the National Hurricane Center said. Gordon, with top sustained winds of 75 mph, was destined to remain over open waters and will not threaten land, forecasters said. |

Tue Sep 12, 2006 BRUSSELS - Stocks of bluefin tuna are disappearing from the Mediterranean, the environmental group WWF warned.
"There is almost no more bluefin tuna to be fished in some of the oldest fishing grounds, especially in West Mediterranean," the group said in a statement in which it called on the European Union to ban commercial fishing during the breeding season. The problem is particularly acute around Spain's Balearic Islands, where catches of bluefin are down to only 15 percent of levels a decade ago, the group said. |
