One of the escalators at the Georgia Avenue-Petworth stop in Washington, D.C., only runs 34 percent of the time, according to Metro statistics. Four of the five escalators at this station are among the 20 worst performers in the entire system.
"You're going to be walking up the stairs. Take your vitamins, come to Georgia Avenue, and get some exercise," said Metro rider Brian Thomas.
The Friendship Heights station has three escalators on the list, including the second and fourth worst.
While crews were spotted checking the escalator at the Bethesda station, one of the moving staircases there is stopped 55 out of 100 times.
"It's really hard on somebody who's unable to walk the steps and finds that it's just another long slog," said Metro rider Marcia Rucker.
Metro has taken notice of the complaints and has increased the number of escalators to be replaced to 94. Individual fixes can take months, like at Dupont Circle, where repairs are expected to continue through October.
"It's going to be like building a ship inside a wine bottle," said Metro spokesman Dan Stessel.
Metro engineers compare the process of removing the broken escalators from the stations to the game Jenga. They must be cut into 10-foot chunks and placed on three separate cranes to be lifted out.
"This is relatively short-term pain for long-time gain. The escalators we are putting in are industrial grade; they will work well for many years to come," said Stessel.
Below is a list of the top 20 worst performing escalators. The number listed after the station is the percentage of time at which a particular escalator at that station works.
1. Georgia Avenue: 34.17 percent2. Friendship Heights: 38.46 percent3. Bethesda: 44.57 percent4. Friendship Heights: 44.60 percent5. Huntington: 45.16 percent6. U Street: 46.38 percent7. Georgia Avenue: 48.85 percent8. U Street: 60.87 percent9. Columbia Heights: 61.96 percent10. Glenmont: 65.93 percent11. Georgia Avenue: 66.2512. Arlington Cemetery: 67.07 percent13.

Hello Hannes,
Thank you for your interesting comments. I will have to test disabling
SmartNav on my secure server at a convenient time. Based on your comments,
I did find Microsoft Article Q318320, which talks about SmartNav and SSL.
The article does not talk about crashing Internet Explorer, but it does seem
related to my problem, and yours as well since they seem very similar. It
also talks about a fix for the problem, but you have to ask for it directly
from Microsoft. The fix is not downloadable. This tells me that you need
to thoroughly test the fix before putting it in production. Unfortunately,
I do not have the luxury of installing a pre-release fix.
In my situation, all of my users use IE6. I will test with other browsers,
but I do not have the luxury of asking my users to use another browser.
I would be interested if you do install the fix and if it helps your

A Baby Is Saved by a Space Age Spinoff
No one then in the delivery room realized what the resultant howl had cost the baby's oxygen-starved body. Jason's father Lawrence, a 21-year-old airman, was rushed back to the hospital only an hour after he had grinned at his first-born through the nursery window. He was told that the infant's heart, which should have been beating 115 times a minute, had dropped to a perilous 20 beats because of a mysterious blockage in the controlling bioelectrical circuit from the brain. "I've installed a temporary pacemaker," heart specialist Major Luther Williams told the distraught father. "We've got the pulse back to 100-plus. Now he goes to New Orleans."
Simultaneously en route to New Orleans by way of commercial jet from Minneapolis was a battery-powered pacemaker, miniaturized to one-third the hockey-puck size that can be implanted in an adult. The pacemaker reached the Ochsner Foundation Hospital six tense hours after the ambulance bearing Jason had screamed to the emergency entrance. Within 45 minutes a team led by Dr. John Ochsner, 47, had opened Jason's chest and abdomen and implanted the device, which provides the correct number of electrical impulses to produce a normal heartbeat. Jason became the youngest pacemaker patient ever.
Cardiac surgeon Ochsner is the son of famed surgeon Dr. Alton Ochsner Sr., still practicing at 78. (He is also notable for observing a startling statistical relationship between cigarette smoking and cancer as long ago as 1933.) His son, who was embarrassed by near-stardom after performing a heart transplant two years ago, preferred to shrug away his latest surgical triumph: "Implants are the simplest of all heart operations," said Ochsner, who has done over a thousand. "Jason's life was saved by miniaturization, which grew out of engineering required by the space program."
Jason can look forward to a normal, active boyhood. "He won't be able to do the extra strenuous things like football," say the doctors, "but he'll swim and run and get into things like any other boy. It has to be that way. How could you tell a 3-year-old boy not to run and play?"
Three days after Jason got his tiny pacemaker, whose battery is replaceable in two years, the hospital succumbed to pressure and hosted a press conference for the space-age tot. Jason proved exquisitely well-mannered—yawning at the beginning, asleep by the end. Modestly, Dr. John Ochsner did not show up at all.

What to Expect from President Obama's State of the Union Address
Welcome to the Morning Buzz, PRRI's morning dose of religion-related news with a shot of data – because what doesn't liven up a morning round-up like some public opinion numbers?
PRRI CEO Dr. Robert P. Jones sat down with FoxNews.com's Lauren Green last week to discuss PRRI's latest report, which examines Americans' opinions on whether supernatural forces are at play in sports. Be sure to check out the full article and video, which have been prominently featured on the FoxNews.com Sports page, by clicking here!
Over at The Monkey Cage blog, prominent political scientists are weighing in on the polarization of American politics. For more on the topic, be sure to check out Dr. Robert P. Jones and Daniel Cox's book chapter on increasing partisanship among white Protestants and Catholics in Religion, Politics, and Polarization: How Religiopolitical Conflict is Changing Congress and American Democracy.
The New York Times has an interesting piece on what we could expect from President Obama's State of the Union address tomorrow, including a renewed emphasis on fighting economic inequality. Sixty-two percent of Americans say the primary cause of America's problems is an economic system that results in continuing inequality and poverty, while 35 percent disagree.
Aaron Blake and Sean Sullivan have penned a new article for The Washington Post on the ramifications former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee's recent comments regarding the Obamacare contraception mandate may have on the GOP's efforts to better connect with women.
Renee Gadoua examines the United Methodist Church's continued struggle with the issue of same-sex marriage in her latest for Religion News Service. Sixty-eight percent of white mainline Protestants agree gay and lesbian relationships should be accepted by society, while 23 percent disagree.

Umm Mohammed, widow of assassinated Hamas military chief, says day Shalit deal came through was happiest in his life
Elior Levy
Published: 11.18.12, 21:10 / Israel News
Elior Levy
The happiest day in the life of Ahmed Jabari,
the man taken out by
IDF fighter pilots as part of the opening shots of Operation Pillar of Defense,
was the day the deal for the release of
Gilad Shalit was
finalized, his widow Umm Mohammed recalled.
According to her, Jabari managed to fulfill the three goals he had set for his life: Leaving a strong army behind him, finding a solution for the Palestinian prisoners and going on the Hajj pilgrimage to Mecca, the last of which he completed very shortly before his death.

However, according to the widow, the day he managed to secure the release
of some 1,000 prisoners in return for the release of the Israeli soldier Gilad Shalit was the happiest in his life. "I found him happier than on our wedding day," she said.

In terms of his personality she said "he was a man like all men," "modest" and with none of the egoistic mannerisms one assumes a leader would have. "He loved people very much. He was a good husband and a merciful father," she added.
"I went down to the market with him and saw how he wanted to give gifts to each acquaintance and relative. He didn't forget a single one," she recalled, adding that a short while before his death he hosted a large dinner at their house.
"He greeted so many guests. But this was not in fact a reception, but rather a goodbye."

Terrible management; maintenance doesn't work. I see them all day just talking to one another. Management doesn't out in work orders and maintenance doesn't even do the work orders. I had problems for months no one did anything. ROACHES AND BUGS! Pest control didn't help at all there are still bugs. Cops in and out of this place; tenants using drugs while sitting in the parking lot. Terrible neighborhood after dark. Grand oaks was better than this place. At least it was quiet, I had no bugs, and rent was reasonable.

I honestly think the best thing that can happen to Roger is he falls out of the top 10, begs Andre to coach him at least part time (slams), gets an Andre-approved coach for the rest, Andre accepts and then Fed wins another couple of slams when he's firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-2253867020130053273.post-42873514971694465922009-04-03T12:35:00.000-07:002009-04-03T12:35:00.000-07:00YES!

Oh well. To each his (or her) own, right? ;)

I thought the Rafa/JMDP match would either be fantastic or a snooze-fest, depending on JMDP's mental state. Federer, he worships. Rafa? Not so much. Respect, yes. Idolize, no.

Murray's still making some dumb mistakes, so maybe JMDP can keep the win streak going. I doubt it, but you never know.

Richie,
*whispers*
I was happy for JMDP, too. He played unbelievably well.

But I was much happier to see Fed smash that racquet today. That HAD to feel soooooooooooooooooo gooooooooooooood.

I just saw the answer about binding. DO NOT EVER BIND! I have several friends who are trans men who used ACE bandages to bind their breasts til they could get a vest or surgery. The bandage compresses not just your breasts, but your whole chest cavity. It is designed to compress a little more every time you exhale. It can cause long term damage to your lungs, like decreasing your lung capacity. Use a good compression sports bra. Go ahead and pay more and get one from Nike or Reebok. They are great. But do not ever use an ACE bandage to bind your breasts. REALLY horrible idea.posted 04/23/2013 by wanderingxwondering

Yay! I love this ship! Go Mikanni! <3
I want to hug you.
I am very okay with this couple
me too, love them ^///^
They're so sweet, in a weird way. My headcanon is that they are rivals in martial arts or something, and hate each other at first but slowly warm up to each other
Really? I don't see them that way in the anime lol. Remember before Annie turned into crystal? She was took down by Mikasa and the way she looked at Annie, her eyes were so cold. Mikasa showed no mercy to Annie
Well, mainly in the case of an AU, because I have no clue how I'd get it to work in canon hahaha
lol true!
I actually prefer AUs for shipping, since canon is so... dark and everyone is too busy trying to survive for romance to really be an issue, it gets overshadowed.

Locked Out: Disrepair Forces Closure of Vital Shipping Lane
The Kiel Canal, one of Europe's most vital shipping lanes, was shut down this week when two neglected locks broke down. The closure threatens to cause major disruption to shipping in Northern Europe, but Germany's Transport Ministry has promised rapid repairs.
It's the world's most heavily trafficked man-made shipping lane, but since Wednesday few ships have been seen on the 100-kilometer (62-mile) long Kiel Canal, which cuts through the northern German state of Schleswig-Holstein to form a roughly 450-kilometer shortcut between the North and Baltic Seas.
As the Süddeutsche noted, the shipping lane was planned during the 19th century under Kaiser Wilhelm in order to ensure that ships "could get from the Baltic Sea to the North Sea without having to pass by Danish canons." The canal first opened in 1895, and, with relations far friendlier today, it forms a vital link for trade within the European Union and to Russia.
35,000 Passages a Year
It is also of enormous importance to Hamburg, Europe's second-largest port behind Rotterdam. One out of three container ships that is processed in the city travels through the Kiel Canal as it continues on to the Baltic states and Russia.
State politicians have slammed German Transport Minister Peter Ramsauer for not taking action sooner. "We're making ourselves the laughing stock of the world," Schleswig-Holstein Economics Minister Reinhard Meyer said.
The two large locks that are closed are located in Brunsbüttel, where the canal meets the North Sea at its western end. Since Wednesday, only ships of a length of 125 meters (410 feet) or less, 20.5 meters in width and a depth of maximum of 6.5 meters can still navigate the canal. Given that most modern container ships plying the world's waters start at around 294 meters in length, that excludes most traffic. Last year alone, around 35,000 ships (including smaller ones) and 104 million metric tons of goods made the passage through the canal, according to German news agency DPA.
Officials hope to reopen the canal to larger ships again in two weeks. In the meantime, large container ships, the heart of the local economy in Hamburg, will have to make an expensive, 450-kilometer detour through Skagerak, Denmark. The Süddeutsche Zeitung estimates it will cost a shipping company 70,000 more for each ship than it would to travel through the canal.

As the research vessel Thomas G. Thompson steamed toward St. Paul Island, crab fisherman Wayne Baker was holed up in the tiny Alaskan harbor...
ON THE BERING SEA — As the research vessel Thomas G. Thompson steamed toward St. Paul Island, crab fisherman Wayne Baker was holed up in the tiny Alaskan harbor, waiting for a break in the weather.
It hadn't been a great season so far.
"I've never seen so many blanks," said Baker, who set pots for four days without pulling up a single crab.
St. Paul is a speck of land in the Bering Sea, the treacherous expanse of water that separates Siberia and Alaska near the top of the world.
Since Russian fur-traders came seeking otter pelts in the 1700s, this northernmost reach of the Pacific Ocean has created fortunes and claimed the lives of mariners drawn by its astounding bounty of marine life. Whales, walruses, seals — one species after another was slaughtered to the verge of extinction, yet a wealth of living resources remained untapped.
VIRTUAL REALITY | 360 degrees

GRAPHIC | Fishing boats & catch

PHOTO GALLERY | Bering Sea
Today the Bering Sea yields half of all seafood harvested in the United States. The annual catch is valued at $1.7 billion. The bulk of that money goes into the pockets of fishermen and processing companies based in Seattle — a 12-day sail from St. Paul.
But the nation's richest ocean ecosystem is in the midst of a major upheaval, and scientists suspect global warming is at least partly to blame. Researchers like those who spent a month this spring on the University of Washington's Thompson are trying to figure out what the future holds for the region called America's "fish basket."
Crabbers like Baker are already feeling the effects.
In the past six years, snow crab catches have dropped 85 percent. Most other crab species are in a similar slump. Overfishing is probably a factor — but not the only one. Biologists also have documented a northward shift of crab populations, away from warming waters in the traditional fishing grounds of the southern Bering Sea.
Fur seal numbers are dwindling, despite a 20-year-old ban on commercial hunting. Stellar sea lions were declared endangered in 1997. Seabirds that once flocked to the region by the millions are in precipitous decline.
The changes coincide with rising water temperatures and shrinking sea ice cover.
"In the Bering Sea … rapid climate change is apparent, and its impacts significant," scientists concluded in the 2004 Arctic Climate Impact Assessment.
Not all the impacts are negative — at least from a human perspective.
Warmer water favors some species, including pollock, the "money" fish that dwarfs all other fisheries worldwide and winds up primarily in imitation crab, fish sticks and fish burgers. A fleet of ships, mostly from Washington, mines nearly 3 billion pounds of pollock from the Bering Sea each year — the equivalent of 10 pounds for every man, woman and child in the United States.
"This is not a clear doomsday story," said George Hunt, a University of Washington ecologist who monitored birds during the Thompson cruise. "If temperatures continue to increase, there's a better than even chance pollock fishing will improve."
But there also are indications the Bering Sea's fabled productivity may be diminishing — and that sustained warming could bring nasty surprises.
Stocks of most other fish species, including yellowfin sole and Greenland turbot, have been dropping since the late 1970s and federal biologists warned in a report last year that "substantial reductions in total catches may be necessary in the near future."
"There will be losers," Hunt said.
Study in tough conditions
The Thompson called at St. Paul on a blustery day to swap out crew members. The 274-foot ship stood off the treeless island while a skiff shuttled people back and forth. The sky was the color of concrete, the sea like slate. A 3-foot chop hurled stinging water over the small craft's bow.
With a wind chill that plunged the temperature into single digits, global warming seemed like a theorist's dream.
Few people venture here, but growing numbers have vicariously experienced the Bering Sea's rigors through "The Deadliest Catch." The Discovery Channel show tracks the crews of several crab boats as they battle 60-knot winds, mountainous waves and ice that swallows up their pots. At least 27 fishermen have perished in the Bering Sea over the past decade.
Conditions aren't as death-defying on a research ship, but scientists on the first leg of the Thompson's voyage grappled with ice-encrusted equipment and squalls that rocked the ship so violently everyone was forced below decks.
Many of these scientists have studied the Bering Sea for 20 years or more. Most work for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, whose Alaska Fisheries Science Center in Seattle monitors the ecosystem, estimates fish populations and figures out how much can be safely harvested.
Their trip this spring was focused on a cornerstone of the Bering Sea ecosystem that is beginning to vanish: ice.
About 80 percent of the southeastern Bering Sea used to freeze every winter. Since the 1970s, the ice cover has shrunk as average water temperatures have risen by as much as 4 degrees Fahrenheit. Now, the prime fishing grounds remain ice-free most years. The northern Bering Sea still freezes in winter, but floes are thinner and patchy.
"You expect normal climate fluctuations, but now it's been about 30 years and we just continue to get warmer," said NOAA biologist Jeff Napp, one of the cruise organizers.
Last winter was a cold exception to the trend, with conditions that would have seemed normal several decades ago. But once the ice started melting in late May, it pulled back more rapidly than usual.
For creatures adapted to a frozen world, the loss of ice can be catastrophic.
Walruses and so-called ice seals haul out on floes to give birth and rear their pups. As the area that freezes each year shrinks, the animals are forced farther north and into deeper water. More walrus pups are being abandoned — a possible sign that adults can't reach the bottom anymore to fetch clams.
Short-tailed shearwaters migrate more than 9,000 miles from Australia, trusting the normal interplay of ice, sunlight and water temperatures will guarantee a feast of tiny shrimp when they arrive. In 1997, a half-million of the albatrosslike birds starved to death because off-kilter weather triggered a chalky algae bloom that obscured their prey.
Fish also are highly selective about temperature, which varies with the amount of ice.
"It only takes a little bit of warming to change from a place with seasonal ice cover to no ice cover," Hunt said. "That's why these high latitudes are expected to be the places where long-term global warming shows up first and has its most profound impacts."
The Alaskan Arctic is replete with evidence of global warming, from forest fires to melting permafrost and shifting whale migrations. But those changes mainly affect local residents. What happens in the Bering Sea reaches into the Seattle economy and world seafood markets.
The hunt for algae
The trick to doing science on sea ice is picking the right floe.
It has to be big enough for people to stand on and thick enough to support their weight. Cracks or thin spots can mean a plunge into 35-degree water.
From the Thompson's bridge, NOAA oceanographer Edward Cokelet spotted a likely candidate: flat and about the size of a volleyball court. The ship was northwest of St. Paul, sailing between long fingers of ice. Cokelet and two colleagues loaded their gear into a Zodiac and zoomed toward their target.
Like a floating dock, the floe bobbed with the swells as Cokelet fired up a gas-powered coring tool. Within minutes, he extracted a cylinder of ice about 2 feet long — the thickness of the floe. After photographing the core, Cokelet sawed it into 4-inch slices. Back on the ship, scientists would melt the slices, analyzing their nutrient content and looking for algae, the microscopic plants that form the basis of the food web.
As unlikely as it seems, the presence of ice probably boosts the Bering Sea's productivity.
Scientists believe areas that freeze in the winter experience an algae population explosion — called a bloom — early in the spring, thanks to plants that flourish under the ice. The frigid water that time of year limits the number of tiny, algae-eating animals called zooplankton.
That means much of the algae falls to the bottom when it dies, a feast for bottom-dwellers and bottom-feeders like worms, crabs, flatfish and diving ducks. Walruses and gray whales also thrive in a bottom-up ecosystem rich in the clams and shrimplike amphipods that make up the bulk of their diets.
University of Tennessee biologist Jacqueline Grebmeier has dredged sediment samples from the northern Bering Sea for the past 20 years, as ice cover has shrunk. She's measured a decrease in nutrients and the amount of life the muck can support. Even with this year's extensive ice sheet, productivity levels did not rebound, said Grebmeier, who collected samples during a separate research cruise in late spring.
"If we have colder water again for a while, the animals that were there won't necessarily come back," she said. "Once you change an ecosystem, it's very difficult to put it back the way it was."
Where ice has vanished, algae don't bloom until later in the spring. By then, the water has warmed slightly and zooplankton are abundant. The little animals gobble up the plants, so less food falls to the bottom. Instead, the zooplankton nourish a food chain that favors fish like pollock and cod and fish-eating mammals like killer whales.
"It's a dramatic change, and it's happened in my lifetime," Grebmeier said.
Polar cowboys
The seal shifted nervously on the ice, craning her neck to get a better look at the creatures approaching from the sea. She probably had never seen humans before. Now, three Zodiacs were buzzing toward her from different directions.
Reluctant to abandon her days-old pup, she hesitated too long.
The moment the rubber boats hit the ice, biologists camouflaged in white smocks leapt out and raced toward the animals. Wielding what looked like giant butterfly nets, they ensnared the mother, then straddled her back like bull riders. In fact, the group from NOAA's Marine Mammal Laboratory in Seattle jokingly call themselves "polar cowboys."
The 150-pound female bucked and bellowed. Sitting astride his catch, Bob Montgomery slipped a jacket over her eyes. Her struggles subsided.
"It's a ribbon seal," he said. "And she's a good mom."
The male pup, cloaked in thin, white baby fur, went limp, as if trying to disappear against the snowy backdrop.
No creature may be more threatened by the loss of ice in the Bering Sea than the ribbon seal, which is marked with a circular white band that gives it a clownish appearance. Little is known about the species — except its absolute dependence on ice as a platform for breeding and birthing.
One of four ice-dependent seal species, ribbon seals lack the wariness of animals that live farther north in polar bear territory. If ice vanishes from the Bering Sea, forcing the seals into the Arctic basin, their prospects are grim.
"I think we could be looking at the extinction of ribbon seals within this century," said John Bengtson, director of the marine mammal lab.
He was crouched on the ice, mixing epoxy to glue a satellite transmitter to the female's back. The transmitters track the seals' movements until they molt, shedding the instruments along with their tattered fur coats.
The NOAA team helped tag the first ribbon seals last year on the Russian side of the Bering Sea. They discovered the animals travel all across the basin, diving up to 1,000 feet to feed. As if on cue, they all headed to the edge of the ice when the water began to freeze in November, probably to haul out and rest.
Information on the seals' movements and behavior helps scientists understand their life cycles and design surveys to estimate the species' populations.
"We need to start paying attention now," Bengtson said, "or it will be too late."
Warming trend at work
With binoculars at the ready, the UW's Hunt and fellow ecologist David Hyrenbach kept a lonely vigil on the Thompson's bridge every day, logging each bird they spotted.
Their tallies were sparse until the ship drew near the boundary between the continental shelf and the deep basin to the west and south.
Nutrients swept up along this undersea cliff sparked a flurry of activity in the water, and gulls, kittiwakes and fulmars dived and wheeled in search of food.
The interplay between deep and shallow water is one of the main reasons the Bering Sea supports so much marine life.
With water up to 13,000 feet deep, the basin serves as a repository for some of the planet's most nutrient-rich water, delivered there by global currents.
The great fisheries occur on the shelf — an area bigger than Washington, Oregon and California combined — where the water is less than 500 feet deep. Sunlight penetrates the vast expanse, nurturing algae. Winds mix nutrients through much of the water column.
One of the more disturbing changes in the past 25 years has been a slackening of the summer storms responsible for that mixing — which could lead to an overall drop in the Bering Sea's productivity. Since 1980, summer wind speeds have been well below normal, said Jim Overland, an oceanographer with the Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory in Seattle, a co-sponsor of the expedition.
But weather in the Bering Sea has always varied wildly. Historical records show cycles of alternating cold and warm conditions that last for roughly a decade, accompanied by corresponding booms and busts in fish populations.
Those cycles haven't ended, but there are many signs that a longer-term warming trend is at work as well, Overland said. The current temperature increase extends across the Arctic from Norway to Siberia and Alaska. Temperatures still vary year to year, but there haven't been any major cold spots in the last two decades, he said.
The intense warming between 2000 and 2005 also doesn't fit any historic pattern. And even if 2006 marks the start of another cool cycle for the Bering Sea, it almost certainly won't be as pronounced as in the past, said Overland, who has studied Arctic climate for nearly 30 years.
"What it will do is slow the rate of warming."
Unless carbon-dioxide emissions from cars and industry are sharply curbed, the Arctic Climate Impact Assessment predicts average temperature increases of 5 to 9 degrees Fahrenheit on land and up to 13 degrees over the northern oceans within the next century.
None of which is very helpful to folks like Baker, the crab fisherman who sheltered in St. Paul harbor this spring.
Bering Sea fisheries
About half the 1,700 ships that fish the Bering Sea are from Washington. Here's the amount and value of the catch per species.
Herring: 40 million pounds, $3 million*
Halibut: 18.4 million pounds, $53 million*
Salmon: 157 million pounds, $78 million*
Crab: 43 million pounds, $130 million*
Cod and other ground fish: 1.1 billion pounds,
$330 million**
Pollock: 3.3 billion pounds, $1.1 billion**
* Amount paid to fishermen ** Value after primary processing

The future of the fisheries
Fisheries have always yo-yoed, Baker pointed out. In some years, crabs were plentiful in the eastern Bering Sea. In other years, the action shifted west.
"I think they're just going to keep moving," he said, with a shrug.
A few industries, like oil and shipping, are preparing for the day when ice-free Arctic seas allow for exploration and commerce. That kind of planning is tough for the fishing industry, said Gunnar Knapp, a University of Alaska economist who studies the seafood business.
"They're very aware that global warming could have significant impacts, but the scientists aren't able to give them any firm predictions," he said. "The industry is focused on the here and now."
Over the past few years, scientists have discussed what climate change might mean for fishing worldwide. But concrete answers remain elusive because marine ecosystems are still so poorly understood.
Even in Alaska, where the fisheries are considered the best-managed in the world, biologists can't predict how a tug on one part of the ecological web will reverberate through the others.
Consider the arrowtooth flounder, which has proliferated as the Bering Sea warms.
Arrowtooths are big and look like they would be good eating, said Teressa Kandianis, whose Bellingham-based Kodiak Fish Company owns two Alaska trawlers. "But when you go to cook it, the meat just melts."
Attempts to find a market for the fish have generally failed, she said.
The flounder is also a fierce predator of young fish.
Could that serve as a check on expanding pollock populations?
Recent surveys measured the first drop in pollock populations in six years, and federal biologists are recommending a 17 percent cut in harvest levels next year.
No one knows exactly what's going on, but that's the type of question the researchers on the Thompson hope to be able to answer some day.
Kandianis hopes her company will be able to adapt as the mix of fish in the Bering Sea changes.
"One species' abundance might go down, but another one typically is going to come up," she said, then paused.
"Unless there's nothing there."

Air traffic controller staffing has been a concern for the National Air Traffic Controllers Association for many years, but it has now reached a crisis level. We've said it repeatedly over the past few years: the status quo is unacceptable.
Controller staffing has fallen nearly 10 percent since 2011, and the FAA has missed its hiring goals in each of the last seven years. With more than one-quarter of our workforce eligible to retire, the FAA's bureaucratic structure is failing. In fiscal year 2015, the FAA fell 24 percent below its staffing goals. If this situation continues unaddressed, we will be hard-pressed to maintain current capacity, let alone expand and modernize the system.
NATCA supports air traffic control reform and believes we must have stable, predictable funding for the National Airspace System (NAS). The FAA Reauthorization bill contains necessary reforms that we believe will help us maintain the safest, most efficient airspace in the world while we move forward with innovative modernization projects, while protecting the workforce.
The current aviation system has served us well until recent years. Unfortunately, we no longer have a stable or predictable funding stream and this uncertainty has caused many serious problems for the system. Without change, we face continued funding uncertainty.
"All stakeholders in the NAS must work together to ensure that the United States remains the world leader in aviation," said NATCA President Paul Rinaldi, pictured above.

The selection criteria focus is on unmet need in geographical and clinical areas of need.
Further information can be found at the Clinical Psychology Scholarship page on the SARRAH website.
Selection Advice
Admission into the professional Masters programs is via competitive selection.
Eligible applicants for the Professional Training programs must have successfully completed a four year, or three year plus a fourth year, APAC accredited sequence in psychology (or equivalent) in the last 10 years, and be eligible for registration with the Psychology Board of Australia as a conditional/provisional psychologist. An exception may be made for currently registered psychologists who can demonstrate current compliance with Registration Board continuing professional development requirements seeking to gain a professional postgraduate qualification.
In order to be considered for entry, applicants must:
- Have completed an APAC accredited four-year undergraduate sequence in psychology, namely a three-year major in psychology as part of an undergraduate degree plus a fourth year Honours specialisation in psychology, with a weighted average mark of at least H2A (75%) or equivalent in the last 10 years
- Be eligible for registration as a provisional psychologist with the Psychology Board of Australia
- Satisfy English language requirements (see information for international students below)
- Provide a personal statement of no more than 500 words
- Nominate three references using the online forms above
- Complete a selection interview (short-listed applicants only)
Applicants are first ranked according to a weighted average of their academic performance in third- and fourth-year Psychology subjects (third-year accounts for a third of the weighted score). Results from universities other than the University of Melbourne are adjusted to align them with the University of Melbourne grading scale where H1 (First Class Honours) = 80%.
The minimum eligibilty requirement for application is a weighted grade average equivalent to a Melbourne H2A (ie 75%). Applicants with a grade average of less than 75% will not be considered.
Highly ranked applicants are shortlisted for an interview, which is designed to assess applicants' suitability for clinical training. Usually twice as many interviews are offered as we have available places.
In recent years the cut-off score for shortlisting for interview in both Clinical and Neuropsychology programs has been equivalent to a University of Melbourne grade of 80%. This cut-off is variable, depending on the number of available places, the number of applications received and the academic performance of the applicant cohort.
At the interview, factors such as work or voluntary experience, additional relevant study, publications, etc. may be taken into consideration.

"Fancy a Curry Tonight, Darling, or a Wedding?" Liam and Patsy May Not Have Thought Quite Hard Enough about What Marriage Entails
Riddell, Mary, New Statesman (1996)
So much for National Marriage Week. There we were with the national marriage all ready to roll. Photographers' stepladders padlocked to the railings; [pounds]1,500-worth of Casablancan lilies delivered at dawn; poulets cooked, cake prepared, bridegroom's mum on the shuttle down from Manchester.
And then Liam and Patsy called it off, in favour of a day spent eating chicken tikka massala in bed. Of course it wouldn't have lasted. Marriage demands respect for one's partner's comfort and well-being. Toast crumbs in bed is one thing. Chicken tikka massala is quite another.
Or perhaps they had got up by then. I don't recall. Either way, I must not dwell for too long on Miss Kensit, whose volatile nature does not knit easily with New Statesman publishing schedules.
By the time you read this she may already have found a wedding venue offering the privacy and dignity she and Liam require. Maybe a ceremony before kick-off at the England-Italy game. Alternatively her past marital history suggests she could have dumped him altogether, in favour of a king prawn vindaloo with Damon out of Blur.
Besides, the really iconic couple for National Marriage Week is Teresa and Rex from New Mexico, who chose to enshrine their marital vows in a 62-page love pact known as court document 95-065775. Under its provisions she is legally bound to have sex with her husband between three and five times a week, to refrain from smoking, to drink only in moderation and to keep the car's petrol tank at least a quarter full.
"Marriage can be successful with just love, but it's much easier with negotiation and planning," says Teresa. Quite. I think this is what Demos had in mind when launching its ingenious proposal to revamp a dying institution.
First-time marriage in Britain is at its lowest since 1889. Our divorce rate went up sixfold between 1961 and 1991. Two in five marriages fail; most in the first ten years. Children suffer, so do their divorced parents, and the whole business costs [pounds]4 billion a year.
What are we to do? One suggestion is a ten-year renewable contract, rather than altar-to-grave marriage vows. (Rex and Teresa, close your ears lest the lawyers' renegotiation fees reach Maxwell trial dimensions.)
Demos's wider idea is more appealing. For couples to write their own vows and design their own rituals would put marriage into a modern cultural framework. …

This sourcebook of Halloween lore spans British, Irish, and American literature from the sixteenth to the twentieth centuries, from Robert Burns and Edgar Allan Poe to James Joyce and H. P. Lovecraft. Each of the poems, stories, and plays in this comprehensive anthology provides a link to Halloween celebrations of the past. "A Halloween Party," by Caroline Ticknor, is a humorous short story about a nineteenth-century New Yorker's first Halloween party. The macabre soliloquy from Sydney Dobell's Balder paints a dark, haunting picture of the hallowed eve. Robert Burns' "Halloween" gives a detailed description of the night of October 31 in eighteenth-century southwestern Scotland. The "Hallowoddities" section of the book includes witch-trial testimony, journal entries, and other spooky pieces related to Halloween.
A Halloween Reader provides an overview of the holiday's roots and of how it has changed since it began in the British Isles more than one thousand years ago. In older literature, the dead are viewed as a supernatural evil, but one that can teach, predict, and warn, because they have seen the future that is hidden to us. In twentieth-century and current literature, however, the dead are portrayed as more humanly evil, returning as zombies to exact revenge or to otherwise terrorize the living. As Ms. Bannatyne says in her introduction, "The boundary between the vibrant world we live in and the underground world of worms is thin and brittle; it's only a matter of time. What makes the older Halloween literature so enthralling is that it lets us travel back and forth to the land of the dead without consequence."

my first outdoor ride since November was the Friday TT. I was totally prepared and had a solid ride--equipment was ready, was mentally focused, nailed my pacing, HR was pegged....but my power was down by just about 10% vs what I have done for similar durations, on the rollers, alone, at 6,300 elevation. Still scratching my head on that one. Was like 14th or something...the top 5 were very strong. And poof! There went my GC chances.
i was fired up for the RR...lots of wind and five times over a climb. Tis was my first group ride ao i was extra attentive to my pack handling as i didnt want to be thatguy.Our field, too, was neutralized to allow a pro break and then the field pass just after the fourth time over the climb when a selection had been made. All riders caught back on and the last lap became a parade to the climb. Oh we'll, it's going to be a shoot-out. Hope everyone grout their guns. I took 4th. Had to pull out into the wind earlier than I preferred to get around a fading rider. #1 won it by a wheel but the margin was tight for 2-3-4. Just didn't have that turbo boost. I shouldn't expect it as I can't do a full horsepower sprint on the trainer.
crit was really fun, lots of turns. I felt solid all race but got swarmed on the back half of the last lap and dropped from 5th to 20th. I knew I had to be 5th or so going into the 2nd to last turn. Finished 15th or so...unremarkable.
I was very psyched to feel both strong and confident with my handling. I was lucky to be riding outside in amazing weather, much less racing, in February. This is a real jump on the season for me and gave me exactly what I needed--a good way to see how I stack up against he competition with a race that draws riders for many states, and many who have been racing already in 2013 and may never have stopped riding outdoors. Gives me something to go on for the next few months of indoor training when I emerge again for my bigger goals.
i recommend this race. The scenery is unremarkable (the TT was like an indoor workout done outside!), but something about the race organization and the racers themselves is amazing.
