I'm trying to identify the three Newfoundlanders in this picture I restored. The picture was taken in Malta circa 1940. The back of the picture says "Critch, myself and Coombs." Anyone?

The Quinlan Brothers seafood plant in Bay de Verde is now processing about 100 tonnes of farmed Atlantic salmon each day. It’s an impressive sight. These fish are 8 to 12 lbs each. With this blend of wild and farmed seafood, the plant is now a year-round operation.

If you were one of the 6 occupants of this bus this morning, you’re counting your blessings. This bus was attempting to overtake an RST tanker this morning when they somehow came together near Bellevue. 2 minor injuries; 23k litres of fuel spilled; traffic still detoured.

It’s a big day for the family of the late Liberal politician, Beaton Tulk. Route 330 from Musgrave Harbour to Carmanville has been named in his honour. Tulk passed five years ago, and would have been 80 tomorrow.

When you can stand in the shadow of this defiant, bugling caribou, and gaze upon a Beaumont-Hamel battlefield where so much Newfoundland blood was spilled, it’s hard not to be profoundly humbled and awestruck. “Their name liveth for evermore.”

Here’s a sight. The Newfoundland Ensign was the official flag of Newfoundland from 1904-31. Today, it’s flying again outside Confederation Building as a three-day laying in state for the unknown soldier begins. This is the flag the unknown soldier served under.

We experienced an equipment issue in our Muskrat Falls plant. This caused a sudden imbalance on the system, this is short lived and customers are being restored now.

Today marks the anniversary of the Battle of Medak Pocket. 2nd Battalion 2 PPCLI was caught in an aggressive 14-day Croatian Army offensive. Ultimately, the soldiers imposed their will on the Croatian and Serbian armies, created a buffer zone and enforced a ceasefire.
