Re: Bin Dippers (Centenary Edition)
I've had some seriously bad news today too. On the dipper frontage anyway. As I first feared after hearing him play Ferry cross the Mersey the other week. My new next door neighbour is only a god damn dipper fan from fucking Keeeerrrrrby.
On speaking to him he didn't seem quite as delusional as others though, as he said without prompt from me, that 'he thought Everton were a better side and will come above them'. I'm warming to him. But all windows are now locked and checked at night obv.

(WUSA) - The 42 members of the Governor's new School and Campus safety task force were sworn in and quickly started their work. They first heard what's already been done in terms of training and security measures.
Governor McDonnell called the task force in the wake of the Sandy Hook shootings to see if there's more the state can do to keep children safe... both at school and on campus.
"We've made a lot of progress since the Virginia Tech shootings... We want to see what more we can do," said McDonnell.
The governor recently suggested that we should look into allowing gun-trained teachers to carry weapons at school: "I'm simply suggesting... we should be taking a look at the idea. "
Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli is on the task force. "We are always going to have people who... [we] need to stop them before they do harm," said Cuccinelli.
One subject that's glaringly omitted on the agenda is gun control. But at least one member of the task force thinks that a mistake.
Del. Patrick Hope (D-Arlington) said, "We can't just deal with school safety. Because if somebody want to, they can shoot their way in. "
Delegate Hope says 40 percent of gun sales in Virginia are private, and don't require background checks. He has a bill to change that, but it won't be up for discussion here.

There's always one film at SXSW where I walk in completely cold, knowing nothing except that it fit the right timeslot for me, or that another festivalgoer strongly recommended it. Former Cinematical editor Karina Longworth urged me to see Medicine for Melancholy but didn't say much about why ... and the only other thing I knew was that it was a narrative feature, because I felt like I'd seen too many documentaries so far and needed some balance. Karina must not have been the only one at SXSW recommending the film, because the Alamo Ritz was full at the screening I attended.
Medicine for Melancholy turned out to be a lovely, sweet film, which reminded me in some ways of Aaron Katz's film Quiet City (my DVD review is here). Again, we follow two characters as they explore a city in fairly ordinary ways, while at the same time suspense lingers about their relationship. Both films also use the arts -- art galleries or museums, and music -- to enhance their character studies and their look at city life. However, in this first feature from writer-director Barry Jenkins, the city is San Francisco (primarily the east side), and the characters' interaction is complicated by racial and political elements. The movie opens on the morning after what must have been a wild party. Two people are quietly slipping out into the early-morning air -- two people who just had a one-night stand together. At breakfast, they realize they don't even know one another's names. He introduces himself as Micah (Wyatt Cenac), she reluctantly tells him her name is Angela (Tracey Heggins). She doesn't want to tell him much else, and practically runs away as she leaves their shared taxi. But she's left her wallet behind, and Micah discovers her name is really Joanne. He tracks her down, not only to return her wallet but to see and talk to her again, in hopes that she'll be more receptive.
Medicine for Melancholy can get a little strident with its political messages. At one point, Micah and Jo are walking back from the grocery and stand in a doorway listening to a Housing Rights Commission meeting, where a passionate discussion is taking place about rent control and the gentrification of the east side of the city. I know little about San Francisco, but the issues were certainly familiar to Austin residents, and probably with people from other cities. Micah brings up the issue of affordable city housing as well as other issues about race during the film, which is relevant especially because Jo's live-in boyfriend is white.
Most of the film is in black-and-white, desaturated except for spot colors. This could be an annoying distraction, and admittedly there were a couple of times when I noticed, "Oh, we have yellows now! Hey, green!" but for the most part, this spot color is used to subtle effect. You do notice the color palette change, but then you wonder why, and eventually figure out what it means. Whether you're seeing no colors at all or a limited spectrum, the shots of the city are very beautiful -- the city of San Francisco is practically a character itself.
Medicine for Melancholy isn't a plot-driven movie, but its characters are so fascinating to watch that you won't feel you missed anything. The humorous moments are some of the best in the film: I liked Micah's rendition of a song from Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood, and the amusing symmetry of the characters' behavior when each visits the other one's abode. (There's also a surreal but hilarious bit with suspicious characters near a taco stand.) Sometimes I feel like I've seen too many movies about the problems of contemporary twentysomethings and their relationships, but Medicine for Melancholy is deeper, more thoughtful, and more satisfying than many low-budget first features.

Speaker of the National Assembly Anne Makinda yesterday confirmed that the sitting allowances for MPs have been beefed up from 70,000/- to 200,000/- contrary to earlier statements from various sources.
Makinda, who was speaking to journalists at the launch of three United Nations Global reports on Justice (Women), Population (UNFPA) and Adolescence (UNICEF), said the decision to raise them was effected during the last Parliamentary session.
She said the increase was aimed at enabling the lawmakers to pay house rent and meet costs of other essential needs.
"I'm surprised at the ongoing public debate that MPs are receiving a lot of money. What we added to their perk is the sitting allowance only. We have not increased the MPs' salaries since 2003. The lawmaker gets a salary of 2.3m/-. Now if you deduct 700, 000/- in tax per month and 800,000/- as car loan repayment, service and fuel charge, what do they remain with?" she asked.
According to the national Assembly Speaker, the new allowance was first paid to MPs who attended the last full session from November 8 to 11.
She added that house rent and hotel costs have gone up, while the costs of other amenities have also increased.
Makinda explained that most MPs do not have houses to live in when attending parliamentary sessions in Dodoma.
She said some MPs have signed personal agreements with landlords in the municipality and pay them after a certain agreed period.
She said there was misleading information from individuals and the media concerning the issue, dismissing allegations that the government had increased MPs' salaries.
Recently, the media reported that the last Parliamentary session had secretly raised MPs' allowances to 330,000/- of which 200,000/- was sitting allowance, 80,000/- per diem and 50,000/- was for fuel.
When contacted last week Clerk of the National Assembly, Dr Thomas Kashillila said his office was not aware of the increase.
"I understand there was discussion among MPs to have their allowances raised, but if that has been effected, my office hasn't been formally informed yet," he had said.
The MPs' when contacted have hesitated to comment on the issues apparently due to the recent debate in which the opposition Chadema pressed for abolition of sitting allowances for the lawmakers.
According to the sources, the Leader of Official Opposition in Parliament, Freeman Mbowe, said the latest increase clearly showed that the government has not taken note of Chadema's sentiments over allowances.
"We abide by our stand since the time the daily sitting allowances stood at 70,000/-. When we issued statements contending the allowance, some people, and a section of the media took the issue as a Chadema agenda, but we wanted to expose the misuse of taxpayers' money," he said adding:
Prime Minister Mizengo Pinda was also on record as telling the Parliament during the Budget session that the government had agreed to a proposal to slash the allowances.
Felix Mkosamali (Kibondo, NCCR Mageuzi) and Rev Peter Msigwa (Iringa Urban, Chadema) declined to discuss the matter in detail saying MPs have not been officially informed of the decision to increase their sitting allowances.
"The raised allowance was justifiable given the meagre salaries paid to lawmakers; and my stand is that if MPs were being paid in accordance with the weight of their job, there would be no need to pay them hefty allowances and this is not for MPs only. Civil servants too receive very small salaries," Deo Filikunjombe (Ludewa, CCM) said.

Winner of the 1984 Pulitzer Prize, David Mamet's scalding comedy, Glengarry Glen Ross, is about small-time, cutthroat real estate salesmen trying to grind out a living by pushing plots of land on reluctant buyers in a never-ending scramble for their fair share of the American dream. Here is Mamet at his very best, writing with brutal power about the tough life of tough characters who cajole, connive, wheedle, and wheel and deal for a piece of the action -- where closing a sale can mean a brand new Cadillac, but losing one can mean losing it all. ATSF's production is directed by Keith Phillips and Assistant Director Tiffany Mitchell, featuring: Mark Bird, Sean Hallinan, John Krause, Christian Phillips, Carole Robinson and Frank Wiley.

This article appeared Sept. 4, 2013, on Real Money. To read more content like this, + see inside Jim Cramer's multi-million dollar portfolio for FREE Click Here NOW.When we look back at the evolution of the social-, mobile- and cloud-technology offerings of the last year, we should smile about the trajectory of many of the companies that have launched in that time. That's because these stocks have been incredible performers: LinkedIn (LNKD - Get Report), which announced a huge secondary offering last night; Zillow (Z), which just got a gigantic new shareholder; and Yelp (YELP - Get Report). First, consider LinkedIn. Here's a company that came public in May of 2011 at $45, and immediately went to $94, as the social-networking site had a ton of buzz about it. At the time, the opening was widely criticized as a throwback to the dot-bomb days, when people lost fortunes chasing dubious Internet companies without track records or even opportunities for profitability -- or, in some cases, even sales. Sure enough, the stock dropped to $60 six months later, and the chatter was that the site was just a fad -- and that there really wasn't any hope for long-term growth. Two years later, and you have had a four-fold increase in earnings -- not revenue, but earnings -- and the stock isn't done yet. In fact, I bet its $1 billion offering will be snapped up without any problem, and that it will be put away by growth-seeking money managers who recognize that earnings could conceivably double again next year. Then there's Zillow, the real-estate-listing company. Here's one that is absolutely despised by many short sellers, and there's high-quality research out there that's been saying it is very overpriced. But was it? The stock had its initial public offering at $20 on July 20, 2011, and immediately opened at $35.77 amid calls of Internet over-exuberance. After all, wasn't this just a company that helped you find the price of your house? Sure enough, it came to earth fast, or at least almost back to its IPO price, trading to $22 six months later amid suggestions that the competition had gotten too great. When I mentioned this stock positively just a week ago, I was bombarded by people who thought it was overvalued. Among them was a fellow who was all over me with top-notch research about what a joke Zillow was, including this gem: "It doesn't even own its own content!" Maybe someone should tell that to Australian billionaire James Packer. We learned last night that he bought 9.4% of the company. No wonder its secondary offering -- five million shares price at $82, a 3% discount to the last sale -- worked so well.

A rampant run of offensive linemen romped the top 10.
With the Chargers' needs, they weren't about to slow it down.
Tom Telesco made his first draft selection as general manager Thursday, choosing former Alabama tackle D.J. Fluker with the No. 11 pick. The 6-foot-5, 334-pound lineman started 36 of 37 career college games in Tuscaloosa, all at right tackle.
He'll stay there with the Chargers.
"He's a guy that we think can be a cornerstone to our offensive line for a long time," Telesco said. "He plays with a lot of energy and a lot of passion. You don't see that very often, especially with big guys. That's one of the things you see on the tape right away is the energy he plays with."
Arguably, Fluker's greatest strength is his run blocking. Many scouts viewed him as a potential guard.
Between his knee bend, physicality and experience working against the pass rushers in the Southeastern Conference, Telesco said he was comfortable taking what he called the best player remaining on his draft board.
Fluker, 22, offered his own scouting report.
"D.J. is a guy that, day in and day out, will go get it," he said in a video conference call from New York City. "He's a guy that you'll go to war with for 60 minutes ... (and) a guy also that's a leader of his offensive line. Me personally, I want to be the Ray Lewis of my offensive line and my team. I'm a guy who's going to lead my team to victory and be the high-energy guy. Being on the field is my playground. I enjoy it."
The choice capped a long run of offensive linemen.
The three top tackles came and went: Eric Fisher to the Chiefs at No. 1, Luke Joeckel to the Jaguars at 2 and Lane Johnson to the Eagles at 4. It was the first time in NFL Draft history that two tackles were taken in the first two picks. It was the first time three went in the front four.
Of all years.
The Cardinals took guard Jonathan Cooper at pick 7, and the Titans chose guard Chance Warmack at No. 10.
Fluker said he has "something to prove to the world" for being the sixth offensive lineman taken.
"I will never stop working," he said.
So, San Diego's need at left tackle remains.
It would have considered trading up to select Johnson if he fell to Cleveland at pick 6, but Philadelphia spoiled that. The Chargers have the No. 45 overall pick today, and among their left-tackle options are Arkansas Pine-Bluff's Terron Armstead and Florida State's Menelik Watson.
The Chargers would save $2.3 million in cap space and $4 million in cash if they released Jeromey Clary, but don't look for that anytime soon, a team source said.
Their initial plan, it seems, is to see how Clary responds to a move inside to right guard, as they believe he might have the tools to pull off the transition. Asked about Clary, coach Mike McCoy said he wants competition, and the best starting five will be the one on the field.
For the Chargers, help on the offensive line was a dire need.
Philip Rivers was sacked 49 times in 2012, second most of any NFL quarterback. His blind side was a carousel of undrafted rookie Michael Harris, oft-injured Jared Gaither and a still-developing Kevin Haslam. The Chargers averaged 3.6 yards per rush, tied for second worst in the league.
One pick won't solve all of this offense's woes.
Time will tell if it's a start.

Thursday August 29, 2013
COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) -- Mike Davis ran 75 yards for a touchdown, Connor Shaw and Dylan Thompson each threw long scoring passes and All-American Jadeveon Clowney helped No. 6 South Carolina's defense hold North Carolina to its lowest point total under coach Larry Fedora in a 27-10 victory Thursday night.
The game was delayed nearly two hours in the fourth quarter by rain. The Gamecocks were already in control by that then.
Clowney did not have a sack and finished with three first-half tackles. The Tar Heels' fast-paced offense wore him down and forced him to the sideline for several pit stops, yet he and defense mostly hemmed in the Tar Heels' fast-paced attack. Shaw and Thompson ended things early as South Carolina led 17-0 in the opening quarter.
Shaw found Shaq Roland for a 65-yard touchdown on the game's third play. Thompson threw a 29-yard TD to Kane Whitehurst later in the quarter.

Serena Hotel in Dar es Salaam, formerly known as Movenpick, was sold to a new investor in a multimillion-dollar deal, The Guardian on Saturday can authoritatively reveal.
The revelation, which has also been confirmed by Serena Hotel's top management, proves that former Deputy Minister for Finance Pereira Silima lied in the National Assembly in February, this year.
Though Serena's top management declined to divulge the exact amount paid as the price for the hotel, citing a clause in the contract which bars the buyer from disclosing the total amount paid during the acquisition, The Guardian has established that $28 million was the value of the transaction.
According to details gathered by this paper, what transpired in the change of the hotel's name from the previous Movenpick to the current Serena was total acquisition of the property - meaning the hotel was sold to its current owner.
The posh hotel was previously owned by a Saudi Arabia-based company, Kingdom Hotel Investment (KHI), and managed by Movenpick, before it was sold to the Serena chain of hotels last year.
Speaking to The Guardian this week, the Nairobi-based Managing Director of Serena Hotels, Mahmud Jan Mohamed, confirmed that what transpired was total acquisition and not just a change of management as earlier reported.
"This transaction was done in a transparent way as we acquired this property from KHI (Kingdom Hotel Investment) last year. All information is there as there is nothing to hide," Jan Mohamed told The Guardian in a telephone interview.
Asked about the hotel's shareholding and whether TANRUSS was still a shareholder, Jan Mohamed said:
"It is clear TANRUSS is no longer there. In fact it was not there even during the KHI era, with whom we negotiated before the acquisition was concluded.
The shareholders are TPS East Africa Limited (TPSEAL), Norwegian Development Fund, PROPARCO which is part of the French Development Agency (FDA), Property Development and Management Company (PDM) of Kenya and the Aga Khan Foundation for Economic Development (AKFED)".
With regard to the amount involved in the transaction to acquire the 230-room posh hotel, Jan Mohamed said he could not disclose such information because there was a confidential agreement which prohibited such revelation.
However, this paper has established through credible sources that the transaction was concluded at a tune of $28million (Sh 44.8 billion).
And when quizzed about the amount of money paid to the government as capital gains tax for the sale of a business property based in Tanzania, Jan Mohamed replied, "That question should rightly be directed to the seller and not the buyer.
"TPS, as the main shareholder, as well as its partners such as PROPARCO and NORFUND, are big names which can not engage themselves in dubious deals. We pay all due taxes, as the country's tax authorities can ascertain.
"We have been in the hotel business in Kenya for the past 16 years and in Tanzania for an equal length of time. We have transformed hotels in Kampala and Rwanda and we hope to do the same for the Dar es Salaam hotel."
It remains unclear why the government issued a statement to the effect that the previous owner sold the property to another company more that six years ago.
On February 19, 2012 The Guardian on Sunday reported exclusively that there was controversy with regard to the ownership of the said hotel following a statement given by Deputy Minister Silima in the National Assembly.
The report stated that on July 27, 2011 KHI Senior Vice-President for Africa Roger Kacou had issued an internal announcement which read in part:
"KHI, the owning company of the hotel, has decided to sell the property to the Serena Hotel Group that not only owns hotels but also operates them."
KHI had owned the hotel for about 6 years from 2005, at the same time that the management team from Mövenpick Hotels & Resort was also hired.
Serena Hotels Group owns and operates several hotels and lodges and tourist camps in Kenya, Tanzania Rwanda, Mozambique, Uganda and in the Southern Asian countries of Afghanistan, Pakistan and Tajikistan.
The former Finance deputy minister told the National Assembly during its last February's meeting in Dodoma that what had changed was just the hotel's management team and not its actual ownership.
Silima, who has since been transferred to the Home Affairs ministry as deputy minister during the recent cabinet reshuffle, was then responding to a question asked by legislator Chiku Abwao (Special Seats- Chadema), who wanted to know how much revenue the country had benefited from various changes in business names and sale of companies, including hotels and cellphone service firms.
Silima then affirmed: "In the case of Sheraton, Royal Palm, Movenpick and now Serena, what is changing is the hotel management and not the hotel owner. The hotel owner, who is the taxpayer, is the company named TANRUSS Investment Ltd".
The Guardian has further established that while government records, according the deputy minister, show that TANRUSS was still the recognised hotel owner, the latter's ownership of the property actually ceased in 2005, when the new company, Kingdom Hotels Investments, replaced TANRUSS.
Kingdom Hotels investments ownership ended officially on December 1, 2011 when the new investor rebranded the hotel with the Serena logo and name.
Silima added then that, with regard to the change in share ownership of the same business the government's entitlements were governed by various tax laws, the nature of change in the share ownership, the shareholding structure among local and foreign investors and companies' registration within and outside the country.
Further responding to a supplementary question on what the government was doing to ensure that all the state's statutory revenues were collected, Silima pledged that the ministry would keep tabs on all businesses in a bid to avert any evasion of payment of rightful government dues.

Police say drunken driver fled, hit trees
A graduation party, a drunken ride and a police chase ended at a tree at 2:35 a.m. June 23.
According to the Wauwatosa police report:
A man was arrested for drunken driving and fleeing the police after he blew a stop sign going an estimated 60 to 70 mph at 68th and Wright streets.
An officer, who was waiting at the intersection, tried pulling the driver over but the man hit the gas, hitting speeds of up to 75 mph. The chase, however, was short-lived as the man failed taking a turn at Meinecke Avenue and 74th Street.
He jumped the curb, bounced off a tree, went through a driveway, caromed off another tree, veered to the other side of the road and took out a stop sign.» Read Full Article

Travis Hudson earns third straight volleyball National Player of the Year Award
Former Wauwatosa star Travis Hudson became the first player in National Collegiate Volleyball Federation history to be named the National Player of the Year three times when awards were announced after the Division I championship match on April 11 in Louisville.
Hudson, a 6-6 setter, led the Titans to its third straight NCVF Division I title. Previously this year he was named the Wisconsin Volleyball Conference Player of the Year and a Midwest Ten Conference First-Team selection.
"Travis is the best player to have ever played collegiate club volleyball," said Schaefer. "He led a bunch of unknowns to the national title in 2014, directed us to another title in 2015 and then helped a team overcome a ton of injuries, including one he was directly dealing with to another national title this year.
"It is an honor to coach somebody with so much passion for the UW-Oshkosh volleyball program, his teammates and the sport. He deserves every accolade he receives because of his dedication to be the best in all areas of his life."

Milwaukee Co. Zoo welcomes new female giraffe calf
A new reticulated female giraffe has arrived at the Milwaukee County Zoo, officials reported Friday.
The new female was born in the early evening April 26 to first-time mother, Marlee and dad, Bahatika. Veterinarians completed the calf's first exam April 27 and recorded a weight of about 130 pounds and a height of about 5 feet, 7 inches.
The new calf joins Tafari, a male giraffe born at the zoo in September 2015. The public was invited to help choose a name for Tafari after he was born last year. More than 5,000 votes were cast.
Zookeepers and medical staff have been monitoring both the mother and baby giraffe, according to a news release from the zoo. Marlee appears calm and attentive to her offspring, which is nursing regularly.
Marlee is 4 years old and arrived at the zoo in 2013 from Zoo Miami. Bahatika is 11 years old and arrived at the Milwaukee County Zoo in 2006 from the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo in Colorado. He is also the father of Tafari.» Read Full Article

Show about solitary confinement encourages discussion, activism
After being caught with a pair of tweezers in a California prison, Sara Fonseca was sent to solitary confinement, where she spent 23 hours a day in a cell the size of an elevator with no access to phone calls or visitors.
If she climbed up on the toilet, she could speak to other isolated prisoners through the air vents. Sometimes, they would sing together through the vents.
During her nearly three years in solitary, Fonseca wrote letters to Julia Steele Allen, an activist and prison volunteer. Those letters became the basis for a play that aims to show the public what it's like inside a tiny cell — and to inspire people to work for reform.
The play, "Mariposa and the Saint," will be performed Friday at St. Matthew's Evangelical Lutheran Church in Wauwatosa. It was performed Thursday in Milwaukee. After the 45-minute show, audiences hear from formerly incarcerated people who have spent time in solitary confinement and learn how they can help end the practice.
Wisconsin performances are being presented in cooperation with WISDOM, a statewide group of faith leaders and activists seeking a series of reforms here, including: an end to retaliation against inmates and advocates who bring forward complaints about abuses in solitary; an end to stretches of solitary that last more than 15 days; the elimination of solitary altogether for mentally ill inmates and those under 18; and the establishment of a public database to share information about Wisconsin prisoners in solitary.» Read Full Article
Annual Tosa Night Out celebration will relocate to Milwaukee County Zoo
In an effort to bring the focus and fun of the city's annual Tosa Night Out festivities back to neighborhoods and neighborhood associations, this year's event will be relocated to the Milwaukee County Zoo, said Lt. Paul Leist of the Wauwatosa Police Department.
The move is a result of ongoing and anticipated construction happening in and around Hart Park, where the event is normally held.
"Hart Park has been a wonderful home to our Night Out activities since the very beginning," Leist said in an email. "I imagine that once the construction dust settles in and around the park, State Street and the Village area, we will return."
Leist said the event relocated to the zoo before, about 10 years ago, when Hart Park was undergoing construction work.
This year's festivities will include neighborhood block parties on July 30, 31 and Aug. 1. The police department is encouraging as many neighborhoods as possible to host annual block parties during those days; officers plan to attend every block party that weekend.» Read Full Article
District leaders question use of Wauwatosa schools as voting locations
The Wauwatosa School Board plans to review whether local schools should serve as future voting locations after the district dealt with a number of issues during the spring election, held earlier this month.
Currently, of 14 voting locations in Wauwatosa, seven of them are in district schools.
"Every election, there's something that comes up," Superintendent Phil Ertl said during a school board meeting April 25. "During this last election, I had contact with two principals that (said) there were issues in their buildings. One security related and another one student related."
Ertl did not elaborate on those issues during the meeting, but said his biggest concern is the safety of students.
"We've invested a lot of money into security of school buildings, yet we open them wide," Ertl said of election days. "I struggle with it because I think it's great to have our students see people come and engage in the democratic process and vote."» Read Full Article

"They did an awesome job," LoPresti said. "They won the prelim heat that they faced on Friday and then came back and took sixth overall on Saturday. Some 45 plus teams raced in the 4x100, excellent competition from across the Midwest. It was just a great job.
"I know the girls were disappointed with sixth, as they had a couple of shaky handoffs on Saturday, but part of the reason you go to a meet like the KU Relays is to get that big meet experience and run your best time of the season (so far), and they did that with the 4x100.» Read Full Article

Officials are investigating the death of an inmate found hanging in his cell at one of North Carolina's highest security prisons.
Carl M. Ober III was found Jan. 8 at Maury Correctional Institution, a 1,000-cell close security prison for adult males near Hookerton.
A spokeswoman for the N.C. Department of Public Safety said deputies from the Greene County Sheriff's Office are investigating to determine how Ober died. It was not immediately clear whether the 26-year-old inmate was under any sort of suicide precautions.
Ober was serving a 32-year sentence for a 2006 murder conviction from Chowan County.

Foureye butterflyfish
Foureye butterflyfish, Saba. Source: Clark Anderson/Aquaimages.
The foureye butterflyfish (scientific name: Chaetodon capistratus) is a member of the butterflyfish family (Family Chaetodontidae) that lives on coral reefs in the Western Atlantic Ocean and the Caribbean Sea. This species has an imaginative form of cryptic morphology, by exhibiting large spots on either side of its posterior, thus fooling predators who may then mistake its direction of forward motion. Foureye butterflyfish are one of the top ten commonest reef fish species in this marine region of the Western Atlantic.
Scientific Classification
Kingdom: Animalia (Animals)
Physical Description
Foureye butterflyfish are small (7.5 to 15 centimeters in length) fish with slender oval-shaped bodies. They are silver-gray in color, with many thin dark lines radiating diagonally from the mid-body. They gets their name from the black spot, ringed in white located on the rear of their upper body near the base of the tail that looks like a large eye. In addition, this species has a black bar on the head that runs through theeye.
This color pattern is thought to be an adaption to confuse predators. Because the animal's true eye is hidden by the bar, predators may think that the eyespot indicates the presence of the individual's head. Thus, if the predator anticipates that its prey will attempt to escape by swimming forward, that predator may tend to attack slightly "in front" of what it perceives to be the head of its prey, thus allowing the prey to escape. In addition, the large eye could deter predators, because such a sizable eye causes a predator to think that the butterflyfish is larger than actuality.
C. capistratus manifests an extremely small pointed mouth located at the front of the tapered head.
Foureye butterflyfish are found in the western waters of the Atlantic Ocean along the North and South American coasts, stretching from Massachusetts to Brazil as well as in the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean Sea.
C. capistratus is usually found in shallow coral reefs at depths ranging from two to twenty meters. They typically stick relatively close to the safety of the reef.
Feeding Behavior
Foureye butterflyfish are browsers who feeds on anthozoans (corals) preferring hexacoral such as scleractinians, anemones, and zoantharians. They are reef fishes that not only rely on the corals for habitat but also food. Anthozoans are readily available on coral reefs therefore it's not surprising that anthozoan tissue is their main diet. They are considered active generalists because anthozoans have minimal nutritional value and in order to make up for that loss, they readily feed on fish eggs, worms or crustaceans when these foods are accessible. Having a mixing diet provides essential nutrients or a balanced diet for assimilation efficiency or both
Their bodies are well designed to allow this foraging strategy. Their narrow bodies allow them the move through tight places in the reef as they are foraging. They have good eyesight to allow them to detect their prey. Their thin pointed mouth, which contains fine teeth, allows them to feed on individual polyps.
Foureye butteflyfish are often observed in pairs foraging on the reef. In areas of high density, they may form social foraging groups of as many as 15 individuals.
The "social communication hypothesis" proposes that the eyespots should be variable among individuals because variability could serve as differences that could be used to recognized individuals. This hypothesis was supported by the fact that pairs of fishes display laterally to each other while rejoining after being separated.
Most reproduction is thought to occur in the period from February to May. Foureye butterflyfish are believed to be typically monogamous, but the species may mass spawn in areas with high population density. Spawning occurs in the water above the reef: both the male and female release a cloud of gametes into the water column where fertilization occurs. The number of eggs produced depends on the size of the female, ranging from hundreds to thousands. Eggs are buoyant and hatch within a day or two to produce a larvae with a yolk sac attached. After a few days the yolk sac is absorbed, and the larvae continue their pelagic stage. During this interval, the larvae develop a series of armor-like plates over their heads and bodies. Eventually, the larvae settle on the reef and rapidly transform into juveniles that live in sandy areas around isolated coral heads and sponges, in sea-grass beds, or in mangroves. The juveniles live solitarily until they reach sexual maturity at about one year of age.
Conservation Status
Foureye butterflyfish are widespread and abundant, such that the species is deemed not to be at risk.
