No full textTim Di Muzio on 'Sabotage'
No full textIn a series of essays published in 2013 and 2014 on capitaspower.com, political economist Tim Di Muzio explored the concept of ‘sabotage’ as it applies to capitalist power. I recently rediscovered these essays and was so impressed by them that I have reposted them here as a single piece.
About the author: Tim Di Muzio is a researcher at the University of Wollongong. He is the author of numerous books, including Debt as power, Carbon capitalism, and The 1% and the Rest of us

Session C5: Downstream Migration of Silver Eel (Anguilla Anguilla) in the River Meuse in the Netherlands 2008 – 2012
No full textPresenting Author Bio: Tim Vriese has been involved in fish migration studies since 1989. Several long term studies were done on the migration of salmonids and silver eel on the rivers Rhine and Meuse. He is co-author of a Dutch fish migration manual. Other fields of study are fish friendly turbines and pumps and the ecological effects of cooling water intakes. Currently he is working at ATKB, an environment consultancy firm.Abstract: Downstream migration of European silver eel (Anguilla anguilla) was studied in the Meuse in the Netherlands, in the period 2008-2012. Silver eel (n = 840), with implanted NEDAP transponders, were released at different locations, in the lower part of the Meuse in Belgium (Berwijn at Moelingen) and in the upper part of the Meuse in the Netherlands (Ohé en Laak). Fish were tracked by telemetry at 41 fixed NEDAP Trail detection stations distributed along the Meuse from the confluence with the Berwijn to the North sea, a distance of more than 330 km. Over the period 2008- 2013 75% (n = 630) of the eels were detected. Eel numbers reaching the North sea varied between 6-10% yearly. Most eels migrated to sea by way of the Haringvliet. Silver eel migration showed much individual variation, with fish reaching the sea within several days after being released and fish postponing their downstream migration for more than one year. The onset of migration was stimulated by increasing river discharge. Fish from different maturation classes showed no significant differences in migration speeds. Average individual migrations speed ranged from 0,3 to 1,6 m/s, indicative for at least a partly active migration (average river flow being 1 m/s). Generally migration speed slowed when fish approached sluices and weirs in the Meuse. The influence of the hydro power station (HPS) Linne on the migration was examined. Mortality of silver eel per kilometre, over the river stretch Linne – Lith (130 km) turned out to be twice as high after fish had passed the HPS (0,43% versus 0,22% passing the weir at the same location)
First person - Tim Petzold
No full textFirst Person is a series of interviews with the first authors of a selection of papers published in Biology Open, helping researchers promote themselves alongside their papers. Tim Petzold is first author on ‘ Connexin 41.8 governs timely haematopoietic stem and progenitor cell specification’, published in BiO. Tim conducted the research described in this article while a PhD student in Julien Bertrand's lab at the Department of Pathology and Immunology, Faculty of Medicine, University of Geneva, Switzerland. He is now a postdoc in the lab of Holger Gerhardt at the Max Delbrück Center for Molecular Medicine in the Helmholtz Association, Berlin, Germany, investigating developmental biology – previously his focus was on how blood stem cells develop and now it has shifted to how the vascular system develops
