======================= THIS WEEK'S HIGHLIGHTS =======================

--Physical Sciences
-Deep winds beneath Saturn's upper clouds from a seasonal long-lived
planetary-scale storm
Six Great White Spot (GWS) events have been observed in the atmosphere
of Saturn since 1876. The latest erupted in December 2010 and has
been the subject of intense observation.

--Earth & Environmental Sciences
-Tracking apex marine predator movements in a dynamic ocean
Electronic tracking data on 23 species has revealed the predator
hotspots, foraging patterns and migration corridors of large
marine predators in the Pacific Ocean. A major finding is the
discovery that retentive oceanographic conditions on the west coast
of North America have created an ocean wilderness where large
predators are relatively undisturbed.

--Biological Sciences
-Structure-based design of non-natural amino-acid inhibitors of
amyloid fibril formation
Inhibitors of pathological amyloid fibril formation may be useful as
therapeutics in amyloid diseases such as Alzheimer's if they are
sufficiently specific. The use of computer-aided design has produced
a promising new class of anti-amyloid.
