midway lady ( foaled 1983 ) was an american-bred , british-trained thoroughbred racehorse and broodmare who won two british classic races in 1986 .

in a racing career lasting from august 1985 until june 1986 , the filly ran six times and won her last five races .

she sustained her only defeat when finishing second on her racecourse debut but won her remaining three races in 1985 including the may hill stakes at doncaster and the prix marcel boussac at longchamp .

her three-year-old campaign consisted of only two races , as she won the 1000 guineas at newmarket and the oaks at epsom a month later .

after sustaining a serious leg injury , she was retired to stud where she became a successful producer of winners including the oaks winner eswarah .

million reasons ,

let me start by saying that this is hallowed ground ,
obama said , noting that this was the site of the 1942 battle of midway , where
a number of young men lost their lives here . . . for us to be able to visit this monument and remind ourselves of the sailors and airmen and everyone involved who were able to rebuff the japanese force , that was vastly outnumbered , is a testament to their courage and their perseverance .

angel down ,
another sweet , emotional ballad that fills us with enough sorrow to go right back to
diamond heart
and start all over again .
it is also spectacular as an ecosystem , and our ability to not just designate but build on this incredible natural beauty that is home to 7 , 000 marine species , that sees millions of birds , many of them endangered , sea turtles , hawaiian monk seals , black coral , all sorts of species that in many other places we no longer see , we ' ll extend that 550 , 000 miles in ways that ensure not only that midway itself is protected , that the entire ecosystem will be able to generate the kind of biodiversity that allows us to study it , research and understand our oceans better than we ever have before .
sonic lady remained in training as a four - year - old with the breeders ' cup as her main objective . her training in the early part of the year was disrupted by a foot injury and she appeared to be less than fully fit when she made her seasonal debut in the queen anne stakes at royal ascot where she finished third , beaten a length and a head by the colts then again and water cay . [ 14 ] three weeks later she was matched against the leading three - year - old filly forest flower in the child stakes at newmarket . [ 15 ] the early pace was very slow and swinburn opted to send the filly into the lead after two furlongs . in the closing stages she held off the sustained challenge of the aga khan ' s filly shaikiya to win by a head with forest flower ten and a half lengths back in fourth . sonic lady did not race again until 26 september , when she finished third behind milligram and miesque in the queen elizabeth ii stakes at ascot . in november , the filly was sent to california for her second attempt at the breeders cup mile , with the panamanian jockey laffit pincay replacing swinburn . racing on medication , including lasix and bute , she started the 2 . 9 / 1 favourite , but had no answer to the finishing speed of miesque and finished third of the fourteen runners .

the 11 - 4 joint favourite , ridden by richard hills , also enjoying his first oaks win , denied a fairytale story for the runner - up ' s trainer david elsworth .
elsworth , who trained the great horses desert orchid and persian punch , was seeking his first british classic win .
but something exciting ( 7 - 1 ) just could not reel in the unbeaten eswarah , with pictavia ( 8 - 1 ) staying on in third .
virginia waters , the other joint - favourite , weaved her way through the pack after the turn for home but did not get the trip , finishing fourth .
magical romance , who had set the earlier pace , stayed on well to come fifth .
her dam was very good , but this filly is exceptional . she has trained beautifully ,

they slowed up about six furlongs out , which was good because my filly got a good breather into her for the run - in .

it ' s a remote destination for air force one - - the tiny dot of an island is a three - hour flight northwest of honolulu , surrounded by a vast expanse of ocean . but the president hopes the trek will help underscore the efforts he ' s taken to preserve some of the world ' s threatened ecosystems .
the president was also planning to snorkel off the coast of the atoll , according to a pool report .
obama was going to
interact directly
with some of the wildlife , according to his top climate adviser brian deese , though he didn ' t specify what that might entail .
two - dozen bird species , including the black - footed albatross and red - footed booby , occupy the island , as well as dozens of coral reef - dwelling fish in the surrounding water .
endangered monk seals , green turtles and tiger sharks are among the other species that share the fragile marine environment there .
like his visit last year to the alaskan wilderness , obama hopes his stop in a remote and threatened environment will prompt more americans to take climate change seriously .
he made his case for taking action during remarks near lake tahoe wednesday , warning against electing leaders who deny warming temperatures are the result of human activity .
the fact is it is man - made ,
obama said .
it ' s not ' we think it is man - made , ' it ' s not , ' we guess it is man - made , ' it ' s not , ' a lot of people are saying it ' s man - made , ' it ' s not , ' i ' m not a scientist so i don ' t know .

i might not be flawless , but you know i ' ve got a diamond heart .
joanne opens in earnest with
diamond heart ,
which proceeds with a sleepy build to the chorus .
i might not be flawless , but you know i ' ve got a diamond heart ,
gaga croons . by the time i reached the bridge , where gaga ' s voice really soars , i was in .
good thing i know what i ' m worth ,
she belts . going into
a - yo
and the much slower , guitar - driven melody of
joanne ,
it ' s clear that nostalgic american vibe — country , rock and roll , and maybe even a little bit of folk — is where we ' ll live . at this point in my personal experience with the album , i ' ve unpacked some boxes and moved right in .
listening to and loving joanne reminds me of a similar experience i had five years ago , when the decemberists released their own country - style masterpiece , the king is dead . i remember being struck by how exceptional it sounded when the decemberists mixed their style and sounds with more traditional ( and simpler ) bluegrass textures . i realize now , with the help of gaga , that there must be some magic there . when an artist that ' s so entrenched in one genre of music gets the chance to tap into such a specific and traditional sound , it ' s like their personal lens casts everything in a whole new light . the result is something notably fresh , undeniably close to the heart and , in my opinion , quite impactful .
as we get into the meat of the album , it ' s clear there are notes of gaga ' s theatrical background too .
come to mama
is perhaps the most striking example of a voice influenced by musical theater , but there ' s also a noted drama to the most upbeat songs like
john wayne ,
dancin ' in circles ,
and
sinner ' s prayer .
in these songs , the character of
joanne
might be the most palpable . pointed lyrics like
every john is just the same ,
and
feels good to be lonely ,
nod at the sorrow in the album ' s underbelly , but the raw energy of the songs is equally undeniable . these might be my favorite songs on the album . the lyrics are poignant , the imagery is sharp , and the beats are electrifying . the fire in these songs is present in all of gaga ' s work , because i recognize the feelings i get from listening to it .

she is the first halftime show performer to receive an admonition from the national rifle association about what she should — or , rather , should not — do during her super bowl performance .
speaking on nra tv , conservative political commentator bill whittle strongly implored gaga to leave any political statements out of her 13 - minute sunday performance at houston’s nrg stadium .
whittle began by taking a shot at the nfl for picking gaga just a year after beyoncé fueled criticism from conservative corners for her 2016 super bowl halftime show performance . it featured the live debut of her overtly political song “formation , ” which found her and her dancers wearing quasi - military outfits inspired by the black panthers .

bradypodicola hahneli is a sloth moth in the family pyralidae that lives exclusively in the fur of the pale-throated three-toed sloth ( bradypus tridactylus ) , a three-toed sloth found in south america .

it is the only species of the bradypodicola genus .

while the other sloth moth , cryptoses choloepi , has a continuously convex front of its head , bradypodicola hahneli has a concave shape of the front of its head .

the three-toed sloth ’s fur forms a micro-ecozone inhabited by green algae and hundreds of insects .

the fur provides a home and protection for the moth which feeds on the algae .

it also deposits its eggs in the droppings of the sloth , where they pupate and hatch , the newly hatched moths flying off to look for another sloth to live on .

note : this is a “classic” interesting thing of the day article from over 10 years ago . it has not been edited recently , so it may contain broken links , outdated information , or other infelicities . we plan to eventually update or retire most classic articles , as time permits .
there are times—quite a few of them , for better or worse—when i’m confronted with evidence that something i’ve believed ( or assumed ) to be the case for years is simply wrong . these occasions can be a source of embarrassment , such as the time a few years ago when a friend pointed out to me that i always misspelled the word “embarrassed . ” being someone who takes the use of language seriously , this came as quite a blow to me . most of the time , however , i greet epiphanies of mistaken assumptions with equanimity , if not pleasure . i love to learn , and most learning requires a certain amount of unlearning .
i had several such experiences in rapid succession while visiting a wildlife sanctuary in costa rica . aviarios del caribe , located near cahuita on the caribbean coast , is a sloth rehabilitation center . sloths that are injured or orphaned are brought here and cared for , and then—if they’re able to fend for themselves—released back into the rain forest . a volunteer had patiently explained many of the differences between two - toed and three - toed sloths , about which more later . but as i was watching a baby two - toed sloth , i noticed with some puzzlement that it actually had three toes on each foot . clearly there was an interesting story here , but that was just the beginning of the strange and wonderful things i was to discover about sloths .
first , let’s talk about those toes . sloth expert judy arroyo explained to me that all sloths actually have three “toes”—that is , three digits on their hind limbs , if you want to think of them as feet . the difference is in the “fingers”—the digits on the fore limbs . two - toed sloths have two ; three - toed sloths have three . so why weren’t they called “two - fingered” and “three - fingered” ? apparently it was a problem of translation . according to arroyo , the spanish word used to describe the sloths’ digits can mean either finger or toe , and the english word choice turned out to be a bit misleading .
whether you call them fingers or toes , sloths use them to great advantage . they’re hooked and very strong , which makes them handy for climbing or—more frequently—hanging upside - down for extended periods of time high in the trees . sloths sleep up to 18 hours per day , and when awake , spend most of their time munching on leaves . they move ( very slowly , of course ) from tree to tree every day or two , and descend to the ground only about once a week to urinate and defecate .
two - toed and three - toed sloths share many traits in common , but i was surprised to discover how many differences there were . the two - toed sloth ( choloepus hoffmani ) has light brown fur and is nocturnal . the three - toed sloth ( bradypus variegatus ) has , as its name suggests , variegated fur . it’s active during the day , so it’s the one you’re most likely to see on a rain forest hike . males have distinctive markings on their backs that identify them uniquely , in much the same way as fingerprints . and the extra bones in the three - toed sloth’s neck enable it to turn its head almost 360° .
what i find most interesting about the three - toed sloth is the symbiotic relationship it has with other organisms . one effect of the sloth’s languid pace of life is that it can’t be bothered to groom itself . this turns out to be beneficial to several varieties of algae and mold that grow inside the sloth’s hollow hairs . the algae effectively turn the sloth green , giving it excellent camouflage among the leaves . the camouflage is crucial to the sloth’s survival , because its inability to move quickly makes it an easy target for the harpy eagle .
but the symbiosis doesn’t end there . the algae in the sloth’s fur provides food for a great many insects . ( i should point out , incidentally , that sloths have extremely long fur , making them appear much larger than they really are . ) beetles have been found by the hundreds living on a single sloth . another insect that calls the sloth home is a type of moth— bradipodicola hahneli ( or “sloth moth” to most people ) . the sloth’s fur provides both food and protection for the moth . not only does it feed on the algae , but it also deposits its eggs in the sloth’s droppings , where they pupate and hatch , and then fly off to look for another sloth to live on .
sloths are not known as particularly social creatures , but they do spend enough time with the opposite sex to reproduce . one of the studies underway at aviarios del caribe when i was there involved the mating habits of three - toed sloths . we saw a video in which a female sloth named buttercup let out a blood - curdling mating call that sounded like a woman shrieking . immediately , males from as far away as 700 meters began rushing toward the sound . by “rushing , ” i mean crawling at the breakneck speed of about 200 meters per day . but for a sloth , this single - minded , deliberate movement—on the ground , no less , in plain view of predators—is definitely rushing . ah , the things we do for love .
females usually give birth once a year , and with gestation periods of about six months , that means they spend about half their adult lives pregnant . when a sloth reaches six months of age , it’s old enough to be left on its own . before that time , however , if a youngster falls from a tree , the mother will not attempt to rescue it ; the risk of attack by a bird or jaguar is too great .
young sloths separated from their mothers in this way are the main wards of the sloth rehabilitation center i visited . other residents were injured by contact with an electrical line , or orphaned when an eagle attacked the mother . staff members and volunteers nurse the sloths back to health , and participate in a variety of scientific studies and conservation projects . buttercup was the center’s first resident , and has been there for about 13 years . she serves as a living mascot , helping to promote awareness and research of her species .
sloths’ slow , graceful movements have been compared to those of a t’ai chi master . i agree with that assessment—and coincidentally it was for a t’ai chi retreat that i went to costa rica in the first place . but sloths have also been called “ugly , ” and here i must disagree . up close , sloths are actually quite cute , and the shape of their faces gives the impression of a permanent smile . in the wild , of course , the menagerie of plants and critters growing in the fur can be off - putting , but a well - groomed sloth is—and i’m speaking from experience here—downright cuddly .
sloths share their name with one of the so - called “deadly sins” because their slow metabolism gives them the appearance of laziness . but slow and lazy are two different things . the grace , balance , and gentleness of the sloth—not to mention its hospitality toward the other creatures that depend on it—are traits i could aspire to emulate . — joe kissell
if you’re ever in costa rica , aviarios del caribe is well worth a visit . besides being a wildlife sanctuary , it’s also a bed & breakfast . owners judy and luis arroyo will tell you everything you want to know about sloths , and you can also take a canoe ride into the rain forest to see a wide variety of other wildlife . janet younger wrote this article for the travelwise web site about her stay at aviarios del caribe ; her experiences were very similar to my own .
christopher baker’s article mammals on urltoken compares sloths to t’ai chi masters but claims they’re ugly . i beg to differ—i’ve met some very handsome sloths ( and t’ai chi masters , for that matter ) .
the sloth club is an organization that promotes some positive sloth - like traits : slowness , simplicity , nonviolence , and ecological consciousness .

one of the minor downsides of our biology and taxonomy of insects module on the msc course is , that we do have to review a lot of families within some of the groups , lepidoptera being a prime example . current estimates range from 250 000 to 500 000 species in 124 families ( kristensen et al . , 2007 ) . going through the basic biology of each family can be pretty dry stuff , even if i have a personal anecdote or two to help lighten information overload . i am , for example , able to wax lyrical for several minutes about small ermine moths and their incredible silk - production activities , but even after more than 40 years of playing around with insects i don’t have a personal story for every family of lepidoptera 🙂 so i am always on the lookout for an extra interesting or mind - blowing fact to help leaven the student’s knowledge diet .
the earliest record of a moth associated with a sloth that i have been able to find is in 1877 ( westwood , 1877 ) which merely records that the unidentified moth was “parasitic on the three - toed sloth” . in 1908 a mr august busck on a visit to panama saw a two - toed sloth , choloepus hoffmanni fall from a tree and noticed several moths flying out of the sloth’s fur . he caught these and on his return to the united states presented them to dr harrison dyar ( dyar , 1908a ) . if the name seems familiar to you that is because harrison dyar is better known in connection with dyar’s law , the observation that larval growth in arthropods is predictable and follows a geometric progression ( dyar , 1890 ) . the moths were identified by dyar as a new species which he named cryptoses choloepi . dyar hypothesised that the moths and their larvae lived in the fur of the sloth and it was this that caused the sloth’s matted hair .
postulated linked mutualisms ( þ ) among sloths , moths and algae : ( a ) sloths descend their tree to defecate , and deliver gravid female sloth moths ( þ ) to oviposition sites in their dung ; ( b ) larval moths are copraphagous and as adults seek sloths in the canopy ; ( c ) moths represent portals for nutrients , and via decomposition and mineralization by detritivores increase inorganic nitrogen levels in sloth fur , which fuels algal ( þ ) growth , and ( d ) sloths ( þ ) then consume these algae - gardens , presumably to augment their limited diet . this figure brazenly ‘borrowed’ from pauli et al . 2014 ) .
the sloths take the risk of increased predation by descending to ground level , because by helping the moths they improve their own nutrition and hence their fitness . yet another great example of the wonders of the natural world .
although not as exotic as the sloth moth , we in the uk can also lay claim to a coprophagous moth , aglossa pinguinalis , the large tabby which feeds on , among other things , sheep dung . in spain it is recorded as a cave dweller feeding almost entirely on animal dung , apparently not being too fussy as to the source .

comprise about 398 species occurring predominantly in the neotropical region . larvae can be seed , fruit , stem and root borers , and leaf rollers and tiers . some are myrmecophilous . the adults of
live in the fur of sloths and their larvae develop in sloth dung . larvae of other species have been found feeding on wasp nests and on spines of
spp . ( saturniidae ) caterpillars . most larvae have a sclerotised ring around sd1 of the metathorax .

the epipaschiinae comprise 705 described species in the tropical and temperate regions , except europe . larvae are leaf rollers , leaf tiers or leaf miners . a few species are minor pests of mahagonies , avocado , and corn ( zea mays ) . males of many species have a conspicuous scaled projection from the scape of the antennae . epipaschiinae are supported as a monophyletic group by three characters of the males : ( 1 ) an always upturned and pointed third segment of the labial palpi , ( 2 ) a ventrally curved phallobase of the male which usually extends beyond the ductus ejaculatorius , and ( 3 ) the weakly sclerotised tegumen .
the galleriinae comprise 258 species worldwide . larvae of some species , such as corcyra cephalonica ( rice moth ) feed on dry vegetable matter , while the larvae of other species are known to live in hymenopteran nests feeding on combs and animal debris ( e . g . galleria mellonella , the wax moth ) . sound production by the tegulae of adult males has been studied for purposes of monitoring and control of pest species . the males of galleriine moths have no gnathos , the pupae have a prominent median ridge on the thorax and abdomen dorsally , and most larvae have a sclerotised ring around sd1 of a1 .

the phycitinae ( = anerastiinae , peoriinae ) are probably the most difficult group of pyraloidea in terms of identification and classification . they comprise 656 genera and about 3450 species . phycitines occur throughout the world . their larvae are mostly leaf rollers , but some are inquilines in galls , seed feeders , or predators of homoptera . there is strong evidence that the phycitinae are monophyletic : ( 1 ) the larva has a sclerotised area encircling the base of seta sd1 on the mesothorax , and ( 2 ) the female frenulum is composed of multiple acanthae into one bristle as in males .
the pyralinae ( = endotrichinae , hypotiinae ) comprise 134 genera and more than 1100 species worldwide . most species occur in asia and africa . the meal moth ( pyralis farinalis ) is a cosmopolitan pest of stored food products . other species are leaf feeders and the larvae of pyralis manihotalis has been reared from bat guano . with the exception of cardamyla and embryoglossa , all pyraline females have a short ductus bursae with the corpus bursae barely extending cephalad beyond segment 7 .

callidrepana albiceris is a moth in the drepanidae family .

it is found in sundaland .

the habitat consists of hill dipterocarp forests , limestone forests , lower montane forests an lowland forests .

adults are whitish buff , the wings sparsely covered with very minute orange-brown atoms and a few larger black atoms .

there is a transverse brown band , composed of three lines close together from near the apex of the forewings , where there is a small brown patch with a pale centre , to the middle of the abdominal margin of the hindwings .

on the hindwings , the band is accompanied by some slight blackish suffusion , and is obsolete above vein 6 , and at the end of the cell .

touching the inner margin of the band is a rather prominent black spot and on both wings , there are submarginal black dots , close to the margin at the apex of forewings , widening from the margin hindwards .

callidrepana albiceris

bell ( ms ) has reared the species in s . india . the larva is velvety pale grey and dark brown in a variegated pattern , resembling a bird - dropping when lying along the midrib of a leaf or curled round on itself . there are paired fleshy tentacle - like processes subdorsally on t2 , t3 , a2 and a10 , curled , and often held adpressed against the body . the suranal process is similar , pointing out and up behind , also curled towards the extremity . the processes are tinged yellow . the ventrum is blackish . the pupa has two slightly divergent cylindrical processes on the head directed anteriorly ( illustrated for another species by wang ( 1995 ) ) . pupation is in a similar mode and position on the edge of a leaf to that of callidrepana species ( see callidrepana felder ) . the host - plant was schleichera ( sapindaceae ) .
. the bone - white ground colour with strong postmedial markings and dark forewing apex is distinctive .
single specimens have been taken in hill dipterocarp forest on g . mulu ( 150m ) and on the limestone g . api ( 250m ) , and two more in lower montane forest ( 900m ) on the latter . one has been taken in lowland forest at 300m in ulu temburong in brunei .

both sexes are uniform rich brown , the female paler , larger . the discal spot is diagnostically narrow , faint , oblique . the male , but not the female , has the brown distal to the postmedials distinctly darker than that basal to them .
sundanian material differs from typical sulawesi material slightly in features of the male abdomen ( longer apodemes to the eighth sternite ) and genitalia ( narrower saccus , longer socii ) .
the species is infrequent and found in both lowland and montane forest : kerangas at 150m ( w . melinau gorge ) ; lower montane forest ( 900m in g . api , 1000m on g . mulu ) ; upper montane forest ( 1465 - 1618m on bukit retak ) .

males are dark brown , lacking strong fasciation , and are also distinguished by the large , slightly paler , bilobed discal spot on the forewing and more conspicuous , irregular , pale submarginal patches on the hindwing . the female is larger , paler , with emphatic dark brown postmedials : the discal patch of the forewing is similar to that of the male though weaker . the sexual dimorphism is seen also in the falcation of the forewing : weak only in the male but emphatic in the female , with the margin generally more convex than in other species , contrasting with the acute , narrow apical hook . the black submarginal dots of the forewing are much nearer this margin in both sexes compared to other brown congeners .
the sexual dimorphism of this species led to females being described separately as praeusta . the structure of the male genitalia indicates affinity with the next species .

the pale ochreous brown wings of argenteola are distinguished by a very narrow discal brown streak on the forewing with fainter antemedial and postmedial bars flanking it in parallel : the veins posterior to these bars are picked out slightly paler . the postmedials are double and the forewings strongly falcate in both sexes . the female is larger than the male but similarly patterned .
all the taxa with synonymy above share strong , black sclerotisation of the valve processes and those of the eighth segment . the aedeagus is expanded into a black ring subapically . however , there is marked variation in the form of these structures throughout the range . the nominal subspecies occurs in sundaland .
oriental tropics to taiwan , the philippines ( ssp . dialitha ) , sulawesi ( ssp . celebensis ) and timor .
most records are from lowland forest , but single specimens were taken at 1200m and 1760m on g . kinabalu .
bell ( ms ) reared the species in india . the larva resembles a bird - dropping . it is anteriorly truncated , a fusiform shape , the suranal process short , triangular , acute . the head is bilobed . the skin has an oily gloss , and the setae are on tubercles on each segment that form part of a transverse tumidity . the colour is greenish black , streaked indistinctly with grey . a1 is dorsally black , and brownish yellow dorsolaterally . most dorsal tubercles are yellow - brown . white patches laterally on a7 extend up dorsally and , as a yellow band , to the anterior of a6 where there is a small , elongate , subdorsal orange red spot on each side . there are a few light yellow markings elsewhere . the larvae are found on the upperside of leaves , stretched along the midrib , but curling round tightly on themselves when alarmed . pupation is in a slight cradle at the edge of a leaf , pulled together with silk . the host - plant recorded by bell was mangifera ( anacardiaceae ) .
