 1. '''Declined''' one review request from ''Journal of Theoretical and Experimental Artificial Intelligence''. Too swamped.
 1. '''Congratulations''' to Dave for getting his paper on selective adaptation accepted with minor revisions on the ''first'' submission. I think we will integrate a few revisions beyond that based on the great comments we got from Remez, but this is great news.
