the rock martin ( ptyonoprogne fuligula ) is a small passerine bird in the swallow family that is resident in central and southern africa .

it breeds mainly in the mountains , but also at lower altitudes , especially in rocky areas and around towns , and , unlike most swallows , it is often found far from water .

it is 12 – 15 cm ( 4.7 – 5.9 in ) long , with mainly brown plumage , paler-toned on the upper breast and underwing coverts , and with white " windows " on the spread tail in flight .

the sexes are similar in appearance , but juveniles have pale fringes to the upperparts and flight feathers .

the former northern subspecies are smaller , paler , and whiter-throated than southern african forms , and are now usually split as a separate species , the pale crag martin .

the rock martin hunts along cliff faces for flying insects using a slow flight with much gliding .

its call is a soft twitter .

this martin builds a deep bowl nest on a sheltered horizontal surface , or a neat quarter-sphere against a vertical rock face or wall .

the nest is constructed with mud pellets and lined with grass or feathers , and may be built on natural sites under cliff overhangs or on man-made structures such as buildings , dam walls , culverts and bridges .

it is often reused for subsequent broods or in later years .

this species is a solitary breeder , and is not gregarious , but small groups may breed close together in suitable locations .

the two or three eggs of a typical clutch are white with brown and grey blotches , and are incubated by both adults for 16 – 19 days prior to hatching .

both parents then feed the chicks .

fledging takes another 22 – 24 days , but the young birds will return to the nest to roost for a few days after the first flight .

this small martin is caught in flight by several fast , agile falcon species , such as hobbies , and it sometimes carries parasites , but it faces no major threats .

because of its range of nearly 10 million km ² ( 4 million sq mi ) and large , apparently stable , population , it is not seen as vulnerable and is assessed as least concern on the iucn red list .

the book ' s idea of punk rock bill martin ' s argument is that punk rock appeared as a new wave of music . he completely shatters the myth of it being a type of music against progressive rock by stating that it was a great part of the rock era . the line ,
by the mideighties , punk was either a ' hard - core ' taste for a few people with leather jackets , and mohawks or it had merged into a larger new wave scene
is an example of biased word choise . this is not historically accurate . this resource , however , is scholarly because of the many noted historians in its bibliography . it also goes into a hardcore generation and bands that have shaped punk music . it does not recognize punk rock as an entirely new music , but views it as one large part of progressive rock history . the historical question being persued is what has punk rock provided for progressive rock ? this is answered and then the book moves on to other music genres .

martin ( music of yes , lj 11 / 15 / 96 ) argues convincingly that the progressive rock movement of the early 1970s , whose pillars are the bands king crimson and yes , deserves consideration as important avant - garde art . while the first three chapters offer an academic , philosophical , and sociological analysis of the genre , casual fans will appreciate chapter 4 : a lengthy annotated discography of important progressive rock albums . unfortunately , martin ' s biases sometimes undercut his thoughtful arguments . he dismisses with contempt valid criticism of
prog rock
from the mainstream rock press , for example , and he fails to recognize the influence progressive rock had on the onstage excesses of 1980s
arena rock
he considers
awful .
still , martin ' s book nicely complements two other recent works on the genre , musicologist edward macan ' s rocking the classics ( lj 10 / 15 / 96 ) and paul stump ' s the music ' s all that matters : a history of progressive rock ( quartet , 1997 ) . recommended for most popular music collections . ? lloyd jansen , stockton - san joaquin cty . p . l . , cal . copyright 1997 reed business information , inc .

cell migration and invasion are steps that are critical for metastasis and rely on rho / rock - mediated cytoskeletal modifications and actomyosin contraction [ 41 ] . the ability of rock inhibitors to reduce the migratory and invasive properties of adherent tumor cells has led to suggestions that they could possibly be used to reduce metastasis in cancer patients and combined with the clinical success of rock inhibitors in other pathological conditions with deregulated actomyosin contraction such as cardiovascular diseases [ 42 ] , hypertension [ 43 ] and atherosclerosis [ 44 ] , rock inhibitors are gaining popularity as safe compounds that could be easily transitioned to cancer therapy .

martin is obviously a passionate , committed , and highly knowledgeable fan of progressive rock . he is fully entitled to his opinions . unfortunately , martin ties himself up in philosophical knots - - and envelops himself in the political correctness of tenured academia - - to justify the inconsistent categorization / taxonomy of progressive rock that ultimately derives from his tastes . this is too bad , because a more consistent and fair - minded treatise would have been more valuable . it also would have most likely not been book - length , because the tedious

chapter could have been condensed into 10 pages or less . martin would also have known to avoid this tedium if he had read ben watson ' s
negative dialectics of poodle play

in the early seventies , king crimson , yes , jethro tull , emerson , lake and palmer , and many others brought forth a series of adventurous and visionary works , often of epic length . responding both to the new possibilities in rock music opened up by
sergeant pepper ' s lonely hearts club band
, as well as to the countercultural politics and aesthetics of the late sixties , these musicians applied consummate instrumental and compositional skill to transgressing boundaries . since the late seventies , histories of rock music have either ignored or marginalized the progressive rock era . in part , this has occurred because rock music criticism has taken an almost completely sociological turn , with little or no interest in musical form itself . in
listening to the future
, bill martin argues that it is a musical and political mistake to ignore this period of tremendous creativity , a period which still finds resonance in rock music today . he sets the scene for the emergence of progressive rock ( showing that , in fact , there has always been a progressive trend in rock music , a trend that took a quantum leap in the late sixties ) , and develops a terminology for understanding how an avant - garde could arise out of the sonic and social materials of
as curling has grown , so has martin’s place within it . recent crowds featured the retired track star carl lewis and vernon davis , the san francisco 49ers tight end . martin said he heard that stephen harper , the prime minister of canada , would attend . even “the simpsons” showed marge and homer curling .

in contrast to other titans of rock , martin’s childhood seems to have had little visible angst . after prep school in exeter , he boarded at sherborne . he was president of a sting fan club and featured in school bands that played pet shop boys - esque pop and billy joel - style honky - tonk piano .
but martin almost gave up curling to play hockey , a decision that ranks among the most difficult of his life . eventually , he chose rocks over pucks , because he wanted to play for owchar , a coach with 30 years’ experience at the northern alberta institute of technology , a coach martin labeled canada’s very best .
martin turned professional in 1987 and took four years’ worth of beatings . he won a canadian national championship in 1991 and made his first olympics a year later .
however , we feel that still the plumage variability of both the cited species ( rock and crag martins ) need to be investigated and that the “overlapping area” is not well clear . in particular , colour of both underparts and chiefly upperparts in crag martin , contrariwise to what illustrated in most ( if not all ! ) modern field guide , is far more variable and birds of some populations or in some age / state of sun - bleaching and abrasion could appear as pale as rock martin from morocco to sinai ; similarly , underwing and undertail coverts vary a lot for both colour intensity and pattern of the feathers , not only due to light incidence and sun exposure , but individually and during the different seasons ( stage of moult and ageing ) . we found for ex . some birds in sardinia showing a pretty pale plumage all over , including the mentioned plumage areas . in fact , arrigoni degli oddi ( 1902 ) described a subspecies of rock martin from sardinia as “

i really wanted to like this book . i like a lot of progressive rock . i like a lot of philosophy . unfortunately , professor martin writes with a meandering obscurity that resembles yes lyrics at their most impenetrable , or like reading hegel after not having slept for sixteen hours . simply put , martin is an appallingly bad writer . it ' s too bad that as writing models , martin bypassed schopenhauer , hume & nietzsche . he seems to prefer hegel , fichte and heidegger . i agree with several of martin ' s opinions , though . i love king crimson , jethro tull and gentle giant , and all of these bands are given thoughtful analysis by prof . martin . martin has little time for rush ; considering that rush is the most overrated prog band ever , i heartily concur . frank zappa isn ' t included among the giants of progressive music ( martin takes something like eight pages to explain why zappa isn ' t covered , but he never gets much beyond the
i don ' t like his lyrics
stage ) . zappa ' s music is , truly , more
progressive
than most of the bands covered here . personally , i think i detect a political bias on martin ' s part : one gets the feeling that had zappa wrote utopian lyrics that involved gnomes and fairies , or had embraced the left as had his contemporaries , he would take up a major part of this book . some more curious omissions are captain beefheart & pink floyd . as far as martin ' s philosophy is concerned , he is apparently of the hegelian - marxist school of thought . perhaps that is why his theory of a progressive - rock
zeitgeist
never really gets going . the main flaw , in my opinion , is that this
logic of history
approach is biased from the get - go . for his theory to work , martin had to leave out inconvenient accessories . that explains the absence of zappa .

english musician chris martin was born christopher anthony john martin on march 2 , 1977 , in exeter , devon , england , the eldest of five children to a teacher and an accountant . his interests in music developed at a young age and he formed his first band , the rocking honkies , while he was attending the prepatory exeter cathedral school .

in due course we are going again in the gorge north - east of tozeur , tunisia to obtain a better photographic documentation and feathers sample for genetic study . if confirmed , our observations will confirm the presence of rock martin in tunisia and thus being the first acceptable and proven records , closest known range being some hundreds kilometres away . isenmann , et al . ( 2005 ) mention only crag martin as confirmed for tunisia , reporting that in the saharan part of tunisia rock martin could occur but its presence has never been proved . we checked all the main historical reference of the birds of tunisia , which have a special part in ac’s library : whitaker ( 1905 ) do not give mention of any record , not even possible , of rock martin in tunisia , while report “ i have one c . obsoleta , cab . , which mr . dodson obtained at the small town of sebha , in the interior of the vilayet , in the month of june ” . so , at least for south - west libya the species was reported at that time . later , lavauden ( 1924 ) , corti ( 1926 ) and bannerman ( 1927 ) give no mention as well as blanchet ( 1951 , 1955 , 1957 ) .
other great producers have been louder , brasher , more notorious and more obviously brilliant , with signature sounds that remain immediately recognisable today . whereas martin was a quintessential english gentleman : a former grammar school boy and navy pilot , who carried himself with the quiet gravitas of a british officer . he dressed with the modest conservatism of a university academic and spoke with the gentle tones and sophisticated eloquence of a royal equerry . martin was eminently respectable . in rock and roll terms , he is just about the most improbable revolutionary ever .

the presence of circulating tumor cells ( ctcs ) in blood predicts poor patient outcome and ctc frequency is correlated with higher risk of metastasis . recently discovered , novel microtubule - based structures , microtentacles , can enhance reattachment of ctcs to the vasculature . microtentacles are highly dynamic membrane protrusions formed in detached cells and occur when physical forces generated by the outwardly expanding microtubules overcome the contractile force of the actin cortex . rho - associated kinase ( rock ) is a major regulator of actomyosin contractility and rho / rock over - activation is implicated in tumor metastasis . rock inhibitors are gaining popularity as potential cancer therapeutics based on their success in reducing adherent tumor cell migration and invasion . however , the effect of rock inhibition on detached cells in circulation is largely unknown . in this study , we use breast tumor cells in suspension to mimic detached ctcs and show that destabilizing the actin cortex through rock inhibition in suspended cells promotes the formation of microtentacles and enhances reattachment of cells from suspension . conversely , increasing actomyosin contraction by rho over - activation reduces microtentacle frequency and reattachment . although rock inhibitors may be effective in reducing adherent tumor cell behavior , our results indicate that they could inadvertently increase metastatic potential of non - adherent ctcs by increasing their reattachment efficacy .


the tarry hogfish , bodianus bilunulatus , is a species of wrasse native to the indian ocean from the african coast to the western pacific ocean to japan , new caledonia , and the philippines .

thank you for taking the time to provide feedback on the iucn red list of threatened species website , we are grateful for your input .
justification : little is known about population and life history characteristics . it is very widespread throughout the indo - west pacific and is fairly common in deeper areas . this species is moderately small and sought by aquarium fish collectors , but there is no catch data . it is probably occasionally caught by hook and line and spear fishing . this species is listed as least concern .
this species is found in the indo - pacific from somalia to durban , south africa to the abrolhos islands , western australia . in the western pacific , it is found from wakayama , japan to bali , indonesia and new caledonia . it is evidently absent from the red sea , northwestern indian ocean and the east coast of australia . the relatively poor representation of this species in collections , especially from indonesia and southeast asia , may be due to its occurrence on deep offshore reefs . this habitat is poorly collected at many localities ( b . russell pers . comm . 2008 ) .
there is no population information available for this species . this is fairly common in some areas and in deeper waters .
this is a large species , to about 310 mm sl . it occurs on deep reef slopes rich with invertebrates such as sponges and seawhips , but young adults are occasionally seen much shallower . specimens have been taken at depths of 8 - 160 m . it is usually solitary in coral and rocky reefs . it feeds mainly on benthic , hard - shelled , invertebrates such as mollusks and crustaceans . it is protogynous ( demartini et al . 2005 ) . size at sex change : 38 . 6 - 40 . 5 cm l .
this species is collected for the aquarium trade . it is probably occasionally caught by hook and line or speared , and eaten .
there are no specific conservation measures in place for this species . its distribution overlaps several marine protected areas within its range .
