 Five Horizons: July 1997 Song X - Oceans
"Oceans" has a special meaning to Five Horizons, as it was the first song PJ played at the July 8, 1995 show at Marcus Ampitheatre in Milwaukee, where most of the "horizons" first met.
The PJ mailing list at the time (following the demise of Garden of Stone, through which all of us met) was called "Oceans." We knew that the band knew that we were there.
So maybe, just maybe, the fact that the band chose to open with "Oceans" was a coincidence; but I will always, always, always believe that the activities of the mailing list members had something to do with it, until Eddie Vedder himself tells me otherwise.

 96 Pew Oceans Commission List Impacts of Ocean Fishing, Mike O'Bryant, Columbia Basin Bulletin
The unintended consequences of ocean fishing along United States shores is depleting fish populations, removing predators, endangering other marine animals and altering the productivity and resilience of marine habitats, according to a new report by the Pew Oceans Commission.
The report, titled "Ecological effects of fishing in marine ecosystems in the United States," said that the long-term health of ocean ecosystems is threatened by overfishing, the bycatch or incidental catching of species not targeted by fishermen, and by habitat damage.
In addition, rocks, ledges, seagrass beds, sponge gardens, and shellfish beds in the ocean all contribute to juvenile fish survival, but fishing is having both temporary and long-term effects on this habitat.

 CANOE -- SLAM! Sports - Hockey - NHL: Cold war gets chillier
Sources say the union requested the list in a letter to the league dated Sept. 20 because there was confusion among the players on which players are locked out.
Upset with getting a terse response from the league -- that indicated the union had a better chance of figuring out which players are locked out -- the NHLPA filed a grievance with the U.S. National Labour Relations Board on Tuesday.
With NHL teams allowed to send players to the minors, it's believed the union was simply trying to ensure that all eligible players have been sent down and have the opportunity to hone their skills.
