Geographic Range
Dosidicus gigas, otherwise known as the Humboldt or jumbo squid, inhabits the Eastern Pacific Ocean from northern California to southern Chile. This squid is believed to have both small scale migration within the Gulf of California, from the Baja peninsula to Guaymas Basin. It may also have a large scale migration as part of its life cycle, but little about their large scale migration is known.
In the past, Dosidicus gigas was only rarely spotted off of central California, but evidence now indicates that this squid has expanded its range northward through California following El Nino events which warmed northern waters. Humboldt squid have been spotted as far north as Alaska. Similarly, it has also expanded its range to southern Chile during warm water intrusions.

Martina N.! Picks up a Partner then tosses them aside!
This is all in fun but has anyone else noticed that way Martina has clawed her way up the doubles partner ladder? First it was with ASV, a player who though great is certainly seen her best years behind her. Then it was on to Natatsha Z, another former great who herself was making a comeback. No dice there. So martina gets some fresher legs on her side and teams up with Panova and still no dice. So martina thinks go for better and better, yes top ten. Jennifer enters the scene and really nothing worked right there either.
So now, after going through practically the entire tour Martina has hit the jackpot with the number one player in the world as her partner, a player that has already won a career grandslam in doubles despite not being a doubles specialist: serena williams.
How can martina not win a title and if they played a grand slam if they keep this team.

remote anchor alarm?
i''m not familiar with anchor alarms, and wonder if any operate with a remote alarm, i.e., so that you could anchor and go ashore for a nearby meal, and still have a receiving unit on you which would alert you that the anchor had become unset?

These are packaged cold compresses we got in the hospital for postpartum use, still in the package. I didn't end up using any of the ones I took home. They're marvelous for right after birth, to soothe swollen tissues. They don't get as cold as conventional first-aid cold packs, I think, so you don't run as much risk of freezer-burn to delicate areas. Any homebirthers out there think you could use these?
I PMed you.

Clinton: U.S. should lead AIDS fight
BY Advocate.com Editors
May 13 2003 12:00 AM ET
Former president Bill Clinton on Sunday told graduating students at Syracuse University that the United States should lead the global fight against HIV/AIDS through collaborative efforts with other countries, The New York Times reports. Clinton said that while he supports a current bill in Congress that would earmark $3 billion a year for the next five years for international AIDS efforts, he urges Congress and the Bush administration to devote more money to the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis, and Malaria. After leaving office in January 2001, Clinton founded the William J. Clinton Presidential Foundation HIV/AIDS Initiative, which brings together experts to work in the Caribbean and Africa to expand access to HIV antiretroviral treatments.

Just nine days before the start of the softball season, both major polls released their Top 25 rankings. Illinois, who opens the season on Feb. 4 in Waco, Texas, the site of last year's NCAA Regional Tournament, is ranked 22nd in the USA Today/NFCA poll and 25th in the ESPN.com/USA Softball poll.
Illinois, who ended the season ranked 17th nationally and advanced to the NCAA Sweet 16 a year ago, face many of the top teams this year. California, who the Illini meet on March 20 in Sacramento, Calif., is ranked #1 in both polls after finishing second at the Women's College World Series last season. On Feb. 12 in Las Vegas, Nev., the Illini meet two teams who advanced to the World Series -- #5/8 LSU and #9 Washington. Michigan is the only other Big Ten school in the rankings, listed at #8 in the NFCA poll and #12 in the USA Softball poll. Other ranked teams on the Illini's schedule include #6/5 Stanford, #17/18 Baylor, #21/22 South Florida, #24/23 Southern Illinois and #25 Hofstra. Illinois opponents who received votes in either poll include Massachusetts, Iowa, Northwestern, Oklahoma State, DePaul, and Michigan State.
This is the fourth year that Illinois has appeared in the Top 25, but the first year that the Illini have been in the Pre-season rankings. "While it is true that it's not where you start, it's where you finish, we are pleased to see Illinois mentioned in both pre-season polls this year," said Illinois Head Coach Terri Sullivan. "That shows the respect that we have gained for our program and the respect for the players we have returning. While we are one of only two Big Ten teams in the rankings, I believe others will be there as the season progresses. Our goal now is to follow the lead of many of teams on campus like tennis, basketball, soccer, gymnastics, and wrestling, and build upon the early season recognition."
Illinois plays in six pre-season tournaments starting next week before starting Big Ten play on April 1 at Northwestern. The home opener at Eichelberger Field is April 6 vs. Loyola.

The Seven Sins of Memory
|Daniel L. Schacter
|Houghton Mifflin
The Seven Sins of Memory: How the Mind Forgets and Remembers is a book (ISBN 0-618-21919-6) by Daniel Schacter, former chair of Harvard University's Psychology Department and a leading memory researcher.
The book revolves around the theory that "the seven sins of memory" are similar to the Seven deadly sins, and that if one tries to avoid committing these sins, it will help to improve one's ability to remember. He argues that these features of human memory are not necessarily bad, and that they actually serve a useful purpose in memory. For instance, persistence is one of the sins of memory that can lead to things like post traumatic stress syndrome. However persistence is also necessary for long-term memory, and so it is essential.
Schacter asserts that "memory's malfunctions can be divided into seven fundamental transgressions or 'sins'."[1] These are transience, absent-mindedness, blocking, misattribution, suggestibility, bias, and persistence. The first three are described as sins of omission, since the result is a failure to recall an idea, fact, or event. The other four sins (misattribution, suggestibility, bias, and persistence) are sins of commission, meaning that there is a form of memory present, but it is not of the desired fidelity or the desired fact, event, or ideas.
Types of Memory Failure[edit]
Transience refers to the general deterioration of a specific memory over time. Much more can be remembered of recent events than those further in one's past. This is especially true with episodic memory, because every time an episodic memory is recalled, it is re-encoded within the hippocampus, altering the memory each time one recalls it. Transience is caused because of interference. There are two types of interference: proactive interference (old information inhibits the ability to remember new information), and retroactive interference (new information inhibits the ability to remember old information).
This form of memory breakdown involves problems at the point where attention and memory interface. Common errors of this type include misplacing keys or eyeglasses, or forgetting appointments, because at the time of encoding sufficient attention was not paid to what would later need to be recalled.
Blocking is when the brain tries to retrieve or encode information, but another memory interferes with it. Blocking is a primary cause of Tip of the tongue phenomenon (a temporary inaccessibility of stored information).
Misattribution is the first of the sins of commission which are discussed in the book. It entails correct recollection of information with incorrect recollection of the source of that information. For example, a person who witnesses a murder after watching a television program may incorrectly blame the murder on someone he or she saw on the television program. This error has profound consequences in legal systems because of its unacknowledged prevalence and the confidence which is often placed in the person's ability to impart correctly information critical to suspect identification.
Suggestibility is somewhat similar to misattribution, but with the inclusion of overt suggestion. It is the acceptance of a false suggestion made by others. Memories of the past are often influenced by the manner in which they are recalled, and when subtle emphasis is placed on certain aspects which might seem likely to a specific type of memory, those emphasized aspects are sometimes incorporated into the recollection, whether or not they actually occurred. For example, a person sees a crime being committed by a redheaded man. Subsequently, after reading in the newspaper that the crime was committed by a brown-haired man, the witness "remembers" a brown-haired man instead of a redheaded man.
Loftus and Palmer's work into leading questions is an example of such suggestibility.
The sin of bias is similar to the sin of suggestibility in that one's current feelings and worldview distort remembrance of past events. This can pertain to specific incidences and the general conception one has of a certain period in one's life. This occurs partly because memories encoded while a person was feeling a certain level of arousal and a certain type of emotion come to mind more quickly when a person is in a similar mood. Thus, a contented adult might look back with fondness on his or her childhood, induced to do so by positive memories from that time which might not be actually representative of his/her average mood during his/her childhood.
This failure of the memory system involves the unwanted recall of information that is disturbing. The remembrance can range from a blunder on the job to a truly traumatic experience, and the persistent recall can lead to formation of phobias, post-traumatic stress disorder, and even suicide in particularly disturbing or intrusive instances.

Re: Small Boat for Solo Sailing
We had a Rhodes 22 that had a centerboard, imf and a roller furling genoa. It can easily be single handed. You can find used ones with all those features. The other thing to look for is a pop top. There isn't a lot of headroom in any boat this size and this adds a lot in the main part of the cabin.
Most of these boats also have a stove, a sink and a head, which makes overnighting more comfortable - as do the filler boards you can put in the cockpit if you want to sleep there instead of inside. It's a big bed out there, and you can get an enclosure that turns it into a big tent.

Buffalo Bayou Park
Currently underway is the ambitious $58 million Buffalo Bayou Park project. Buffalo Bayou Partnership, the Kinder Foundation, Harris County Flood Control District and the City of Houston are collaborating to transform 160 acres of green space along Buffalo Bayou between Shepherd Drive and Sabine Street. The entire project will be complete in summer 2015, although areas are being opened to the public as they are finished. Buffalo Bayou Park will include running, hiking and biking trails; paddle craft and bike rentals; the go-to dog park in the city; a nature play area; and gathering places for residents and visitors to enjoy outdoor activities as well as live artistic performances.
Houston Police Officers' MemorialJesús Bautista Moroles' Houston Police Officers' Memorial commemorates the 112 Houston Police Department officers whose lives were lost in the line of duty. The memorial and surrounding grounds are guarded 24 hours a day. more info
Eleanor Tinsley ParkNamed in honor of the late City Councilmember and civic activist, Eleanor Tinsley, the park is home to the city's annual Fourth of July celebration and other large-scale festivals and events. more info
Lee and Joe Jamail SkateparkThe Lee and Joe Jamail Skatepark is a 30,000-square-foot in-ground facility overlooking Buffalo Bayou. The park is free and open to the public and has areas for skaters of all levels. more info

Buffalo Bayou Partnership served as the construction manager for this $12 million project.
Sesquicentennial Park
Commemorating Houston's 150th birthday in 1986, Sesquicentennial Park has become an urban oasis in the heart of Houston's downtown Theater District.
Allen's Landing
Allen's Landing is an historic park that truly defines our city. It was here in 1836 that August Chapman and John Kirby Allen stepped ashore and claimed Houston as their own. This site also became Houston's first port, a thriving commercial hub and a symbol of our city's entrepreneurial spirit. Through Buffalo Bayou Partnership's efforts, Allen's Landing is being transformed into an active and vibrant destination along downtown's waterfront.
Neighboring Parks
After passing the Barker Reservoir near Beltway 8, Buffalo Bayou runs through the 500-acre Terry Hershey Park and through the Memorial area to the Houston Arboretum and Memorial Park, and the River Oaks area. Buffalo Bayou Partnership's jurisdiction officially begins when Buffalo Bayou hits Shepherd Drive and stretches to the Turning Basin of the Port of Houston. Enjoy exploring and discovering the numerous parks located along this waterway.
Things to Do
There are public parking spots available along Allen Parkway, Memorial Drive, and city streets surrounding Buffalo Bayou Park. When parking along city streets, please pay close attention to signage, be neighborly and use the pedestrian bridges to safely access the park!
Restricted & Temporary Parking Options:
- City of Houston Lot H – Over 400 spaces available for public parking on weekends and after 6 pm on weekdays. Buffalo Bayou Park trails can be accessed from Sabine Promenade.

of Alsos, Online Resource for Nuclear History
The Alsos Digital Library for Nuclear Issues (http://alsos.wlu.edu) has a new Web face, improved features and an expanded set of annotated references. Initiated in 2000 as a component of the National Science Foundation's National Science Digital Library (http://nsdl.org), Alsos has expanded its initial focus on the history of the Manhattan Project to cover Cold War and post-Cold War topics including nuclear power, nuclear waste, proliferation of nuclear weapons, and nuclear terrorism. In doing so, it has grown to include over 2,000 references, covering a broad spectrum of topics and disciplines associated with nuclear issues.
Among the new features, Alsos now assists users in locating materials with an improved presentation of popular topics. The results are sorted by relevance to facilitate selection of references from long lists, and online references may be accessed more directly. Finally, users can instantly find books, articles and films in libraries near them via links using the "Find in a Library" feature offered publicly by WorldCat.
As would be expected, users usually discover Alsos through search engines, which have extensively indexed its holdings. It is reached by many additional users through links on appropriate pages of Wikipedia. Hundreds of libraries, college departments, secondary schools, research institutes, and professors worldwide provide links to Alsos for information about nuclear issues deemed relevant to many disciplines. Recently, Alsos has partnered with three other web sites to integrate a still larger variety of historical and current materials on nuclear themes on the Nuclear Pathways project (http://nuclearpathways.org). Alsos provides bibliographies for specific topics for those content-rich partner web sites.
The Alsos Digital Library for Nuclear Issues continues to expand its role as a source of references on both current and historical material. More specifically, the collection contains many references addressing the evolution of nuclear physics and its impact on world events. For further information contact Frank Settle, Department of Chemistry, Washington & Lee University, Lexington, VA, 24450, e-mail: firstname.lastname@example.com.

For the first time in decades, the Committee Against Sexual Harassment and for Gender Sensitisation (CASHFGS) in the Aligarh Muslim University will finally have women students and non-university representatives on the board. The AMU administration has finally given in to the long-pending demand for restructuring the Committee that is mandated to investigate into complaints of sexual harassment on the Campus.
AMU's Vice-Chancellor Lieutenant-General Zammerud-din Shah has issued orders for reorganising CASHFGS. This is followed by the approval of the executive council of the University that passed the resolution to check sexual harassment and violence against women on the campus.
Until now, the CASHFGS panel included only the teaching faculty from the University. They were against the rules that specify that of the nine-member panel, at least two should be women students and there should be one female representative each from the non-teaching staff, a legal expert from outside the university and from a non-government organisation.
Absence of these members was perceived as the reason for non resolution of complaints.
"There are at least 32 cases pending before the CASHFGS, and since most of these cases involved complaints against teaching members, none of these have been investigated into properly and there has been no finding. It [reconstruction of the committee] is a historic move," said Jasim Mohammad, national president of Central Universities Research Scholar's Association at Media Centre Aligarh.
The reconstitution of the Committee will make it more "vibrant, transparent and meaningful", he said, adding: "Now that there are student, legal and NGO representatives on the board, the faith in the functioning of the Committee will be restored. People who need redress for their complaints will be willing to come forwards."
Welcoming the move, Deeba Abrar, an AMU student said there was a need to create awareness against sexual harassment on the campus and initiate campaigns to change the prevalent mindset about crimes against women.
The restructured committee has been reconstituted under the chairmanship of Prof. Nighat Ahmad from the Department of Economics, who will also be the convener of the Committee. The other two members from the teaching faculty are Prof. Tabassum Naqvi, Department of Civil Engineering and Prof. Sandhya Maheshwari, Department of Orthodontia / Human Dental Anatomy.

After troubleshooting the timer, found that the drum would spin if I manually pressed the lid switch with a screwdriver, then it wouldn't work at all. Unfortunately, there was a load of laundry and no way to drain the drum. I bypassed the lid switch (snipped the plastic switch off and twisted the wires). Put a small wire nut over the wires and taped the wire to the top of the machine with plenty of electrical tape so not to cause a shock. Finished that load and ordered the part. Followed advice from former story tellers and removed the two long screws that run down into the cabinet on both sides of the machine, followed by two smaller screws on the top corners of the control panel. Slide the whole panel towards the front of the cabinet about 1/4" and rotate it back over the back panel. The wire assembly will hold it from falling to the floor (watch the tubing that runs on the top edge). Located the plug that leads to the lid switch and pull up on the tab and wiggle it out. Push the tabs on the side of the connector on the cabinet and push it through (watch the metal edges). You will see two metal clips on the left & right top of the cabinet. Put a screwdriver in the notch on the front side and pop them off. Take note on how they are set in the two sides Place hands on both sides of the cabinet and pull towards you, it will rotate over and you can access the lid switch. Remove the two screws from the inside of the lid. Slide the wires & plastic casing off the two small clips on the rim & replace with the new switch. Be careful not to tighten too much cause you'll split the plastic mounting. Reverse the process and your back in business. I believe my lid switch broke due to excessive slamming of the washer lid. Hope this helps

I think the title says it all. I love this jacket, period! I have many jackets and this is by far the best soft-shell know to mankind. I have Gamma and Epsilon but no comparison. Though this is a bit pricy, it will be worth it. I highly recommend this jacket. Don't look at tNF $100 jackets as they won't lat you not even half the time this will last.....EVEREST STATUS
This is the BEST soft-shell one can buy. Not only this is a technical piece but warm and stylish at the same time. I can't ask for anything more. I love Arcteryx (most of their stuff) but I have to admit the fit of this brand can be a hit or miss for me. Though most of their stuff is manufactured in China, the quality control appears to be tight. Better keep that up or else it will turn into anther North Face real quick.....EVEREST STATUS
Great to hike in, great to climb in and performs very well on the slopes too. Sleeves are a bit long but I have learned to deal with it.A great casual every day piece as well, typical Arcteryx quality that we have come to expect.
This is a nicely designed jacket-- not bulky (substantial, but not too heavy material). Windstopper makes it a decent shell for cold days, and the excellent pit zips let you ventilate when needed.I am 5'11" and 198 lbs with a 36" waist. Was gonna get a Large, but decided to go XL so I could wear a sweater and lightweight down jacket if needed. Glad I did! Even with just a shirt on, it is not over-large at all (though the sleeves are 2-3 inches longer than my 36" arms need; the velcro straps at the end solve that issue), yet I have enough room to add layers if I need them. The Large would have been too tight.Some companies' XL sizes are huge, but not so with Acr'teryx.
What's awsome:-the jacket is completely windproof-keeps out snow and all but the worst downpours.-hood is truely helmet compatible, and can be forgotten easily if you want due to design of drop hood.-breathable. Pit zips give you added control over your temp.-cuffs cinch down nicely without bunching up and getting uncomfortable.- included pockets are good sized and well placed.- material is soft and flexible and downright comfortable.- fit is really nice throughout body, unrestricted arm movement-zippers move real smooth, even pit zips.Lots of weather protection and a solid set of features with spot-on fit. Good luck finding a better softshell
What can I say about this jacket?It was voted as the best outdoor shell in its class.I am no professional but this jacket fits well, looks cool, does its job very well, etc.At the same time, this is one of the most expensive jacket out there but it will look like new for many years to come. I tried other jackets but ended up going back to the Venta.Overall, I highly recommend this jacket if the bill fits you!
I simply love some of Arcteryx products. IMO, the fleece department is weak compare to some other brands but when it comes to gore-tex/softshell jackets, this is the BEST! I've had many softshell jackets but this one clearly stands on top in every aspect. It looks sharp, comfortable, well constrcuted, great fit, and very durable. I believe this was voted #1 softshell jacket by professional climbers in 2011. Though a lot of their jackets are made in China, the quality control is not relaxed as I really can't tell the difference between Canadian or Chinese made jackets. Wish this was our brand, go USA!!!
This jacket locks the wind out completely! That simple feat makes any insulation layer seem to double in effectiveness. Layer away! Vents like a champ with the huge pit zips. And those come far enough down that you can use them as access to the pockets in whatever layer your wearing under it. By itself it's great for cool days - in a t-shirt your arms will appreciate the fleece lining. Put an Atom LT under it and you're good to go in into the 20's.
People do not realize how good they have it until they lose something. Well, it in my case. I had one in 2009, sold it in 2010, and I just bought another one in 2011! BTW, the resale value on Venta SV is HUGE but try to hold on to yours. It is one of the BEST jackets you will own and reviews will out there will agree and approve. The jacket is slightly insulated but you would not notice the weight or the bulkiness. It is soft as any soft shell should be. It shields you from any moisture (maybe not heavy rain) and snow. You will look different from all the The North Face wearing folks and stylish. Need more convincing? Buy it as the force is very strong with thin one!!
This is an amazing jacket. As is usual for arcteryx products, great construction and perfect fit. I'm 6'2" 200lbs and I bought a large. The body and sleeves are long enough to provide plenty of coverage, and the overall fit of the jacket is athletic, but loose enough to layer under. The pit zips are great and essential since the jacket doesn't breathe super well during intense activity. It's warm for a softshell, especially with the hood, which is huge. The only con is the sleeves are real baggy, a lot like a burly hardshell, and it can look a little funny when the cuffs are tightened. Other than that, I'm happy.

Buying a sailboat -- how to minimize maintenance?
Low-maintenance sailboat seems like an oxymoron right?
When I talk with boat owners and ex-boat-owners the one thing everyone seems to complain about is maintenance. I love sailing but I don't want to spend a weekend per month fixing my boat, nor do I want to spend 10% to 20% of the boat's value every year keeping it in good shape.
Strangely though, I rarely see boat marketing or reviews discussing low maintenance features or design optimized for maintenance cost. Sure it isn't sexy, but as far as what boat owners actually care about and complain about post-sale, it's way up there.
So here's my question... If a low maintenance boat is a high priority, what should I look for, in design, materials, systems, features? Conversely, what should be a red flag for trouble down the line? What sort of things do you spend a lot of time fixing?
I'm looking for the nautical equivalent of a Honda Accord, where it seems like so many boats are more like Triumphs or Alfa Romeos or Pontiacs or Lamborghinis. I'm willing to pay a premium for anything that will keep working hassle free.
Just to get things started here's some of my conclusions so far -- right or wrong (I have never owned a boat which is why I am asking):
1) Watermakers are high maintenance items
2) Saildrive versus shaft drive is equivocal, but easy engine access is a big plus
3) Epoxy is more durable than vinylester which is more durable than polyester.
4) Solid fiberglass below waterline is lower maintenance particularly on older boats than cored fiberglass
5) Teak decks -- or any exterior wood -- is a huge maintenance item
6) Wood cabin soles are high maintenance
What about steering? Wheel versus tiller? Synthetic versus stainless rudder post? It's astonishing to me how often sailboats have catastrophic steering failures. Can't someone engineer this properly?
Rigs - carbon vs. aluminum? Rod vs. cable standing rigging? Furlers? Autopilots? Multihulls? Cat-rigged monohulls?
In case it helps, I'm looking for a performance cruiser in 32' to 38' range for daysailing, coastal cruising, and fun racing. I will consider any make, any vintage, any price range from $50k to $250k. I am eager to sacrifice cosmetics for functionality, not so willing to sacrifice performance for comfort.
Thank you for your feedback!

A niche is a space into which something fits. The word is often used in reference to ecology, but it can also reference a person's specialty.
Niche comes from the Old French word "nichier" which means to nest. In architecture, a niche is a decorative inset area in a wall that can be used to display statues or other collectibles. When used in relation to ecology, a niche is the place in which a specific species fits into its environment. Niche may also refer to a segment of the population. When people find their place in the world, it is often said they have found their niche.

Finally, a person picked up a piece of chalk. That person was me.
I scribbled: Write the perfect ending.
I had given it some thought, liked the sound of it, was pleased with its writerly and existential touches. Even thought I'd end this column with it. Until I met Winn.
Winn manages the recycling program for the city of Escondido. She's a single mom with two older daughters and a son who is a freshman at UCLA. She was camping with him when she first noticed her breast was misshapen.
She wasn't like the 17-year-old skateboarder who wrote "to have a pet cheetah." She wasn't like the goal-oriented personalities who wrote "learn Japanese" or "ruin a flash mob." And she wasn't as cynical as the person who wrote "see honesty in city government" or as starry-eyed as those wanting to "kill zombies," "ride a unicorn" or "meet Chuck Norris."
She walked to the chalkboard, erased "Have sex with Dick" and distilled her remaining moments — many may they be — into nine emotional words: Help my kids be OK with me being gone.

Re: Sail Georgian Bay Anyone?
I found a great way to gain experience. Join a yacht club and ask the members to come out and crew for you on the race nights. (That's what I did. Hadn't sailed in 25 ish years and when I last sailed it was for the ladies and didn't pay any attention to the boat.)
Joined a local yacht club and asked the members if they would like to crew and got some to come out.
Here are the #'s of my first year racing/sailing. 17 races, 8 wins, 3 2nd last and the rest were in 2nd or 3rd!
I have learnt tons of stuff from different crew members. I'm looking forward to this years races. (I'm going to take all the "stuff" out of the boat so it's not as heavy this year. As well as a few improvements like a main sail traveler, new clutches and new lines....)
