	Maia - Wikinfo (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Maia, in Greek mythology, is the eldest of the Pleiades, the seven daughters of Atlas and Pleione.
		Maia was identified in Roman mythology with Maia Maiestas (also called Fauna, Bona Dea (the 'Good Goddess') and Ops), a goddess who may be equivalent to an old Italic goddess of spring.
		Maia was associated with Vulcan, and on the first of May the flamen of that god sacrificed to her a pregnant sow, an appropriate sacrifice also for an earth goddess such as Bona Dea: a sow-shaped wafer might be substituted.

		It is of note that Maia is also the name of a Roman goddess, a daughter of Atlas and Pleione, and the mother of Mercury by Jupiter.

		The garrison units which occupied Maia are not known, but if one of them does turn out to be a regiment from Phyrgia, it would lend credence to the premise that the fort may have been named after the goddess.

	Going against the grain
		Maia's findings show that people in such situations may actually be making choices based on their knowledge of the situation in ways that researchers had previously overlooked.
		With those findings in mind, Maia and his adviser, McClelland, set out to investigate whether it was indeed the case that, as Damasio and his colleagues argued, participants made advantageous decisions before figuring out the winning strategy in the Iowa Gambling Task.
		Despite these caveats, the fact that participants in Maia's study showed knowledge of the advantageous strategy may point to a more important role for conscious knowledge in advantageous decision-making than has recently been recognized, which is in line with the credo "think before you act," Maia notes.

	Richard Adams' MAIA
		Maia is the "prequel" to Shardik by British author Richard Adams, who is best known for his first novel, Watership Down (which was made into a successful "mature audiences" animated film).
		The life of harem slave concubines in Maia bears a sensationalized resemblance to the life of odalisques in royal Ottoman harems, though unmarred by opium addiction, the strictures of total seclusion within walls, and the risk of being stuffed into a sack and drowned at the ruler's whim.
		The "meta-heroine" of Maia is Occula, a cunning and resourceful fl woman, whose exploits form a "subplot" that acts as a background to the main narrative.

		Maia appears to be a relatively slow rotator, and as such has a fairly quiet atmosphere.
		As a result, different kinds of atoms drift downward under the pull of gravity, whereas others are lofted upward by radiation, the effects making Maia one of the "mercury-manganese stars," in which these two and other chemical elements are greatly enhanced (manganese in Maia up by a factor of 160 compared with hydrogen).

		Maia mailguard is a boon for system administrators dealing with users in a large network where each wants to treat his e-mail in a different way.
