This is a Lens about Squid
A squid is a kind of sea creature that some people like to eat. They are also used as bait for other kinds of fish. The term 'Squid' also refers to a person that creates lenses on Squidoo. This is a lens about all kinds of Squid.
About Squid
I hated doing book reports in school, so I don't really feel like researching my topic and then putting the information into my own words. Here is an article for you to read that someone else wrote.
Squid are marine cephalopods of the order Teuthida, which comprises around 300 species. Like all other cephalopods, squid have a distinct head, bilateral symmetry, a mantle, and arms. Squid, like cuttlefish, have eight arms and two longer tentacles arranged in pairs. (The only known exception is the bigfin squid group, which have ten very long, thin arms of equal length.)

I don't have time to think of any good module titles
I don't feel like looking for good pictures or learning any HTML, so I'm just going to put the keyword Squid into this module and show you someone else's pictures of Squid. I'm in a hurry because I want to make 50 lenses in 50 days!

Reader Feedback
Well, I didn't change the name of this module, and I'm certainly not going to bother putting it at the bottom of the page where it belongs. So once you've looked at everything, you'll have to come back up here if you want to say anything about my lens.
I always stop reading a lens once I see a guestbook, but I'm hoping you'll keep scrolling and see all of the other Squid things I'm selling!

More About Squid
I tried to add this lens to a group and they told me I had to have more written content. So here is another article about Squid that someone else wrote. I'm going to keep adding this lens to groups even if it doesn't fit in with the topic.
Superconducting Quantum Interference Devices (SQUID) are very sensitive magnetometers used to measure extremely small magnetic fields, based on superconducting loops containing Josephson junctions.
They are sensitive enough to measure fields as low as 5 aT (5×10?18 T) within a few days of averaged measurements. Their noise levels are as low as 3 fT·Hz-½. For comparison, a typical refrigerator magnet produces 0.01 tesla (10?2 T), and some processes in animals produce very small magnetic fields between 10?9 T and 10?6 T. Recently invented SERF atomic magnetometers are potentially more sensitive and do not require cryogenic refrigeration but are orders of magnitude larger in size (~1 cm3) and must be operated near zero magnetic field.

"Squid" Amazon Spotlight
Squids Will Be Squids (Picture Puffins)
Amazon Price: $7.99 (as of 11/24/2009)![]()
List Price: $7.99
Used Price: $1.52
I'm just going to copy and paste some of the info that was on Amazon, because I'm in a hurry!
Squids Will Be Squids offers lessons such as "Everyone knows frogs can't skateboard, but it's kind of sad that they believe everything they see on TV." Sure, it's goofy, but it's also saying to kids, "Don't believe everything you see on TV." In "Duckbilled Platypus vs. Beefsnakstick," the bragging platypus and his beefy buddy teach us "Just because you have a lot of stuff, don't think you're so special." Of course, there is nothing heavy-handed here--morals such as "He who smelt it, dealt it" and "Elephants never forget, except sometimes" satirically prance amid the more heartfelt snippets of sagacity.
