Tiburonia

Tiburonia granrojo is a jellyfish of the family Ulmaridae discovered in 2003, and the only member of its genus yet identified. It was discovered by a crew from MBARI led by George Matsumoto. Its genus name is Tiburonia because the ROV the crew were using was called Tiburon, meaning "shark" in Spanish. Its species name was originally to be called "Big Ugly", but Kirsten Matsumoto raised objections to this name, and renamed it granrojo, meaning "big red" in Spanish.

Tiburonia granrojo is one of the largest sea jellies and unusual in a number of ways. They live at ocean depths of 600 to 1,500 metres (2,000 to 4,900 ft) and have been found across the Pacific Ocean in the Gulf of California, Monterey Bay, Hawaii and Japan. They can grow up to 76 centimetres (30 in) in diameter, according to the California Academy of Sciences, and have thick fleshy oral arms in place of the long tentacles found in most jellies. The entire jellyfish is deep red in color.

To date, only 23 members of the species have been found and only one—a small specimen under 15 centimetres (6 in)—has been retrieved for further study. Several high resolution videos of granrojo have been taken by remote controlled submarines. The discovery was announced by Dr. Matsumoto and colleagues in Marine Biology in 2003.

Big Red (sculpture)

Big Red, also known as Red, is an outdoor 1974 steel sculpture by Bruce Beasley, installed at West 7th Avenue between Washington and Jefferson streets in Eugene, Oregon, United States.

Description and history

Bruce Beasley's Big Red is an outdoor sculpture installed at Washington Jefferson Park, located at West 7th Avenue between Washington and Jefferson, in Eugene. The red painted, abstract steel sculpture measures 12 feet (3.7 m), 9 inches (23 cm) x 11 feet (3.4 m), 6 inches (15 cm) x 36 feet (11 m), 5 inches (13 cm).

The piece is among those created in June 1974, when the city held the Oregon International Sculpture Symposium, which attracted artists from around the country. According to the Smithsonian Institution, the purpose of the event was to provide attendees "an opportunity to observe the creation of a major art work, how it was constructed and what the artist meant to convey with it". Studio space was provided at the University of Oregon and at Lane Community College; Big Red was created at the latter location and was relocated to its present site by a large truck and crane. The work was funded by a National Endowment for the Arts, Art in Public Places grant that was given to the city in 1974. Other funding sources included the City of Eugene, Lane Community College, Lane County, Oregon Arts Commission, the Portland Art Museum, and the University of Oregon.

Little Red Riding Hood

"Little Red Riding Hood", or "Little Red Ridinghood", also known as "Little Red Cap" or simply "Red Riding Hood", is a European fairy tale about a young girl and a Big Bad Wolf. The story has been changed considerably in its history and subject to numerous modern adaptations and readings. The story was first published by Charles Perrault.

This story is number 333 in the Aarne-Thompson classification system for folktales.

Tale

The story revolves around a girl called Little Red Riding Hood. In the Grimms' and Perrault's versions of the tale, she is named after the red hooded cape/cloak that she wears. The girl walks through the woods to deliver food to her sickly grandmother (wine and cake depending on the translation). In the Grimms' version, she had the order from her mother to stay strictly on the path.

A Big Bad Wolf wants to eat the girl and the food in the basket. He secretly stalks her behind trees, bushes, shrubs, and patches of little and tall grass. He approaches Little Red Riding Hood and she naïvely tells him where she is going. He suggests that the girl pick some flowers; which she does. In the meantime; he goes to the grandmother's house and gains entry by pretending to be the girl. He swallows the grandmother whole (in some stories, he locks her in the closet) and waits for the girl, disguised as the grandma.
