Built in 1990 by the world's pre-eminent shipyard, Royal Huisman, with naval architecture by the great Ron Holland and innovative interiors by Andrew Winch, CYCLOS III was the ground-breaking yacht of her generation and she remains timeless today.

"As any yachtsman passionate about sailing will tell you, CYCLOS III is craftsmanship, innovation and design at its very best," says Head of YPI Sailing, William Bishop. "CYCLOS III represents the largest, most powerful sailing yachts of her generation - pushing the boundaries of modern yacht design from both a technical and aesthetic perspective."

Described by Showboats as "the yacht with the most glamorous pedigree", CYCLOS III was created to operate under sail and at anchor without the encumbrances of continuously running generators. CYCLOS III harnesses the power of stored energy through a massive bank of gel cell batteries allowing for a hard day of sailing and, importantly, a quiet 'generator-free' night's sleep.

"CYCLOS III is a ketch built for those passionate about sailing and being at sea," says Will. "She is exceptionally comfortable, naturally ventilated and when it comes to performance, she has power in abundance."

"This blind auction offers a unique opportunity for someone passionate about sailing not only to own a ground breaking yacht with an amazing history, but also to have her refitted and upgraded to their own taste and requirements ready for a new era of sailing."

WSU researchers tackle 'virtually ignored' psychological study of spite

WSU researchers tackle virtually ignored psychological study of spite
2014-04-23
PULLMAN, Wash.—Some of the world's nastiest behavior grows out of spite, the dark art of hurting an opponent even when it comes at a price to yourself. Divorcing couples often go out of their way to hurt each other and even their kids, skirting the more peaceful path to moving on. Tax evaders can grow so vengeful over a penalty that they'll double down on their cheating. Terrorists can be so keen to hurt their enemies, they commit suicide in the process. Spitefulness can even elevate a small slight, like lurking in wait for a parking space, into a vengeance worthy transgression. "There ...

Picture books aren't just fun

Picture books arent just fun
2014-04-23
Children hear as much sophisticated information about animals when parents read picture book stories about animals as when they read flashcard-type animal vocabulary books, according to a new study from the University of Waterloo. "Marketers tell parents and educators that vocabulary books are more educational, so picture books are often dismissed as being just for fun," said the study's author, Professor Daniela O'Neill. "But our findings show that reading picture books with kids exposes them to information about animals in a way that allows children to readily apply ...

Neuroscientists discover brain circuits involved in emotion

2014-04-23
Neuroscientists have discovered a brain pathway that underlies the emotional behaviours critical for survival. New research by the University of Bristol, published in the Journal of Physiology today [23 April], has identified a chain of neural connections which links central survival circuits to the spinal cord, causing the body to freeze when experiencing fear. Understanding how these central neural pathways work is a fundamental step towards developing effective treatments for emotional disorders such as anxiety, panic attacks and phobias. An important brain region ...

Lower birth weight, less breastfeeding linked to adult inflammation and disease

2014-04-23
EVANSTON, Ill. --- Individuals born at lower birth weights as well as those breastfed less than three months or not at all are more likely as young adults to have higher levels of chronic inflammation that contributes to cardiovascular disease, according to a new Northwestern University study. Based on data from the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health, Northwestern researchers evaluated how levels of C-reactive protein (CRP), a key biomarker of inflammation, linked back to birth weight and breastfeeding duration for nearly 7,000 24- to 32-year-olds. The ...

Cougars' diverse diet helped them survive the Pleistocene mass extinction

Cougars diverse diet helped them survive the Pleistocene mass extinction
2014-04-23
Cougars may have survived the mass extinction that took place about 12,000 years ago because they were not particular about what they ate, unlike their more finicky cousins--the saber-tooth cat and American lion. Both perished along with the woolly mammoth and many of the other supersized mammals that walked the Earth during the late Pleistocene. That is the conclusion of a new analysis of the microscopic wear marks on the teeth of cougars, saber-tooth cats and American lions described in the April 23 issue of the journal Biology Letters. "Before the Late Pleistocene ...

Stillbirth may be associated with both severely restricted and excessive fetal growth

2014-04-23
When several factors are accounted for, stillbirth may be associated with both severely restricted and excessive fetal growth, according to a study by US researchers published in this week's PLOS Medicine. Radek Bukowski and colleagues from the NICHD Stillbirth Collaborative Research Network investigated the fetal growth abnormalities associated with stillbirth using a new approach developed by the Stillbirth Collaborative Research Network to estimate gestational age. Using this approach the authors investigated all the stillbirths, and a sample of live births, which ...

Pain curbs sex drive in female mice, but not in males

2014-04-23
"Not tonight, dear, I have a headache." Generally speaking, that line is attributed to the wife in a couple, implying that women's sexual desire is more affected by pain than men's. Now, researchers from McGill University and Concordia University in Montreal have investigated, possibly for the first time in any species, the direct impact of pain on sexual behaviour in mice. Their study, published in the April 23 issue of the Journal of Neuroscience, found that pain from inflammation greatly reduced sexual motivation in female mice in heat -- but had no such effect on ...

Getting at the root of the mountain pine beetle's rapid habitat expansion and forest

2014-04-23
The mountain pine beetle has wreaked havoc in North America, across forests from the American Southwest to British Columbia and Alberta, with the potential to spread all the way to the Atlantic coast. Millions of acres of forest have been lost, with severe economic and ecological impacts from a beetle outbreak ten times larger than previous outbreaks. Because of its importance and impact on forestry, the mountain pine beetle's genome has been recently sequenced. Using this new resource, authors Janes, et.al. examined how the pine beetle could undergo such rapid habitat ...

Researchers identify link between fetal growth and risk of stillbirth

2014-04-23
Researchers from the University of Texas Medical Branch and the Stillbirth Collaborative Research Network have identified a link between stillbirth and either restricted or excessive fetal growth. Findings from the study are online in the April 22 issue of PLOS Medicine. Using a new approach developed by the network to estimate gestational age in stillborn babies, Dr. Radek Bukowski, lead researcher and professor of obstetrics and gynecology at UTMB, and his colleagues evaluated 663 stillbirths and 1932 live births that occurred over a two-and-a-half year period at 59 ...
