Glowing tributes as Margaret McManus is laid to rest in Cashel


A 97-YEAR-OLD who defeated Covid-19 before Christmas has been laid to rest in her beloved Cashel.
Margaret McManus (nee Keown) died of natural causes on Monday, February 8. Her nephew, Patsy Keown, paid tribute to his aunt who he described as “the life and soul of the community”.
He continued: “Margaret loved talking to people. She was the most outgoing person – if there was someone sitting in the corner, she would make it her business to go and talk to them.”
When asked what he will remember most about his aunt, Patsy said: “She was just the most interesting person, and took interest in every person from the oldest person to the youngest person. She was always interested in what was going on.

The open ocean is a harsh place for newborn fishes. From the minute larvae hatch from their eggs, their survival depends upon finding food and navigating ocean currents to their adult habitats--all while avoiding predators. This harrowing journey from egg to home has long been a mystery, until now.
An international team including scientists from the Arizona State University Center for Global Discovery and Conservation Science (GDCS), NOAA's Pacific Islands Fisheries Science Center, and the University of Hawai'i at Mānoa have discovered a diverse array of young marine animals finding refuge within so-called 'surface slicks' in Hawai'i. Surface slicks create a superhighway of nursery habitat for more than 100 species of commercially and ecologically important fishes, such as mahi-mahi, jacks, and billfish. The study was published today in the journal

To survive the open ocean, tiny fish larvae, freshly hatched from eggs, must find food, avoid predators, and navigate ocean currents to their adult habitats. But what the larvae of most marine species experience during these great ocean odysseys has long been a mystery, until now.
A team of scientists from NOAA's Pacific Islands Fisheries Science Center, the University of Hawai'i (UH) at Mānoa, Arizona State University and elsewhere have discovered that a diverse array of marine animals find refuge in so-called 'surface slicks' in Hawai'i. These ocean features create a superhighway of nursery habitat for more than 100 species of commercially and ecologically important fishes, such as mahi-mahi, jacks, and billfish. Their findings were published today in the journal
