Half-Squid, Half-Octopus Discovered Off of Hawaii
Otter writes "A unique creature that's been dubbed an 'octosquid' with eight arms and a squid-like mantle, was discovered off Hawaii. The creature, of a previously unknown species, was trapped in the net covering a 3,000 foot-deep intake tube for the Natural Energy Laboratory of Hawaii Authority. From the article: 'The octosquid was pulled to the surface, along with three rattail fish and half a dozen satellite jellyfish, and stayed alive for three days. According to War, the lab usually checks its filters once a month, but this time, it put a plankton net in one of the filters and checked it two weeks later. The pitch-black conditions at 3,000 feet below sea level are unfamiliar to most but riveting to scientists who have had the opportunity to submerge. The sea floor is full of loose sediment, big boulders and rocks, and a lot of mucuslike things floating in the water, which are usually specimens that died at the surface and drifted to the bottom.'"
I almost choked as I rushed to click on the article hoping to be the first to post this. No fair! :(
Give Kashyyyk back to the Wookies
I swear I just heard a weird sound in the room. If I had to put it into words, I'd say it sounded like a "Zing!"
What's even more delicious is the ding dongs that the president requests while on Air Force One.
... "a lot of mucuslike things floating in the water, which are usually specimens that died at the surface and drifted to the bottom."
Jeez, I just read that exactly while taking a nice big sip from my coffee, only to nearly spit it out while visualizing some gross mucus-like goo remains of some sea critter.

Hi Bryan,
Were you and James able to make the changes you wanted to ir-tweak? I haven't heard anything back since you asked Tolga for OSX build instructions.
Paul.
Heeeeey dude. How goes life with the real world?
We have not tried to make changes as James wife had a baby, and he's been out, Tolga is in Istanbul and Ross is somewhere in Germany. I've been in England, then Colorado for the last couple of weeks and Robert will be in Montana for a while. You up for sushi some time? email me with your schedule if possible and we'll talk. You should also come by for a tour of the new $750k microscope that took a month to install...
Bryan
