	Detailed Reviews [King Eider - 2006 - "Somateria Spectabilis"] - ProgressoR
		On "Somateria Spectabilis", Hans turns to the legacy of '70s Prog Rock, which I perceive as his attempt to create something more adventurous than the music his primary band normally plays.
		Both shorter songs, King of Ducks and The News, also refer the listener to the '70s sound, but they are poor compositionally, vocal-heavy, abundant in recurrences on the one hand and lacking tempo changes on the other.
		King Eider's "Somateria Spectabilis" is an okayish effort at best, making allowance for the difficulties that most contemporary progrockers meet all around.

	97-1250 -- U.S. v. All Monies from Account No. PO-204,675.0 -- 10/29/1998
		Claimants Somateria, Financiera, and Reyes Torres argue that the Notice of Arrest mailed to them was inadequate because it did not specify a deadline for filing a claim and thus violated their due process rights.
		Levoyer, represented that the Somateria Foundation account was opened with an initial deposit of approximately eight million dollars; this represented a Swiss deposit in May 1985 that was made by Victor Raul Reyes Torres in the amount of five million dollars and interest earned by that initial deposit.
		According to Claimants, the Somateria account was managed by Somateria for the benefit of Reyes Torres, Levoyer Jimenez, and their four children.

	Common Eider
		The amalgamation rate was highest (42.4% of nests) during the year with the highest nest density and good environmental conditions, and was lowest in the year with low nest density and poor conditions (20.2% of nests).
		In 1995 we conducted a pilot study of brood ecology of the Common Eider Somateria mollissima with specific reference to movements, habitat use and behaviour of both adult females and ducklings on the Wolves Archipelago in the Bay of Fundy.
		Information generated from this colony, particularly recruitment, over the next 3 years was to be used in conjunction with information collected from other breeding colonies to develop a model of the role of post-hatch ecology in the demographics of Common Eiders in the Bay of Fundy.

		This idea may be extended beyond the case where large prey provide no benefit to situations where they are simply sub- stantially less beneficial (because of reduced energetic profitability, increased shell content, or some other factor).
		Common Eiders are present year-round in the area, and adults feed primarily on mussels (Hamilton 1997).
