What is the best way to cook a Salmon fillet ?
I always end up with slimy grey meat on the skin side.
I believe you have found the preferred way (for you) to prepare your salmon. So, let me just give you a couple of tips. If parts of your filet are turning grey, that is because those parts are being overcooked.
As far as the 'slimey' stuff, salmon has a lot of fat and as the fish cooks that fat leaches out and deposits a white coating on the fish. You can simply wipe it off if you find it objectionable.
Hope these tps are some help to you.

Is U.S. Orca Baby Boom a Fluke?
12.01.10
Associated Press Writer
SEATTLE—A little over a year after researchers feared a drop in the Northwest's endangered killer whale population meant disaster, the number of orcas has bounced back with six new babies and no whales lost.
Though scientific evidence is skimpy, some whale experts say the good news might be the result of enough salmon for the majestic black-and-white mammals to eat. Others say so little is known about orcas that the baby boom could be due to any number of factors — or simply a statistical fluke.
Whatever the reason, they're overjoyed about the new arrivals.
"We're all very happy to see so many births," said Susan Berta of the Whidbey Island-based Orca Network.
"We're all hoping that they find lots of fish to keep them healthy and keep the mothers in good condition so they can feed the calves," she said.
The Center for Whale Research says that in 2008, eight orcas in the three pods, J, K and L, that make up the southern resident population in Washington and southwest British Columbia went missing and were presumed dead, including two females of reproductive age and the 98-year-old matriarch of K Pod. With just one surviving birth that year, the total in the three pods as of December 2008 dropped to 82.
Sovereign default of the day: Foxwoods | Analysis & Opinion | Reuters

The Pequots, like all Indian gambling operators, are no mere business enterprise but a sovereign nation, exempt from most commercial regulations and almost certainly unable to use the bankruptcy laws or sell off gambling assets that could be operated by others. So lenders have no choice but to restructure debts, work with the tribe and hope that the economy picks up.
Essentially, the lenders can’t foreclose on the casino, because the current owners — the Pequots — are the only people who can own it. If it’s not an Indian casino, it’s can’t be a casino at all. That, in turn, gives the debtors enormous leverage over their creditors: they can pretty much name their terms, and the lenders have little choice but to agree to them.
How did the lenders find themselves in such a dire situation? I think you know the answer to that one: they just weren’t thinking.
“It’s kind of uncharted territory,” said Tom Foley, a lawyer who specializes in Indian gambling issues and is a past chairman of the National Indian Gaming Commission. “Many of the banks and bondholders should have been aware of these kind of risk factors, but when everything is good, nobody is really looking at the downsides.”
I imagine the lenders figured that a duopoly casino in Connecticut is pretty much a license to print money – which it is. The fact that everyone got greedy and built too much hotel capacity doesn’t impair the fundamental business. This isn’t Vegas where anyone can build and anyone does. They have a great market to split with Mohegan Sun – all the gamblers in New England, pretty much, plus a fair number of tourists.
I once went to Mohegan Sun with a crew from work around the Chinese New Year and was amazed at how many amateur gamblers were thrilled to play $100 tables. It’s not like it’s that expensive to maintain property and hire unskilled labor in Nowhere, CT. If I were working in loan restructuring this would be the commercial loan I’d be most happy to extend for a longer term – as long as they keep the interest coming I don’t care if it takes 100 years to repay the principal. There’s enough lingering Puritanism in New England that there will never be omnipresent casinos.

A bunch of favourites there for dinner tonight and my liver loves me for it!
Why Rice and Saur Kraut of course! We also had fillet of Perch and after cleaning them put the salmon in the freezer, to be smaked at a leter date.
The Lovely Bones... Bad shot.
This only took a few shots on self-timer, and I believe that the little garden next to me saved my life, for helping my camera stay steady on a couple of pebbles and dirt, since I don't have a tripod. And I believe I don't need one anyways, the earth has tons of resting places that I think...
