Getting a sense of porpoise
One of the discussions that occurred while socializing at ScienceOnline'09 regarded my personal feelings towards dolphins. Not surprisingly, whenever non-marine people find out I'm a marine biologist, the conversation always turns to dolphins, after which the person is surprised (shocked, appalled) by my lack on fondness for the sea beasties. The excessive hearting of charismatic megafauna is a pet peeve of mine, with a particular focus on the ocean's most fawned over denizens.
This article got me thinking about why I hold such apparent animosity towards marine mammals.
Now, let me be perfectly clear. I don't hate marine mammals. I don't get particularly excited over marine mammals, but then again, most people don't get particularly excited over chytrids so it doesn't bother me that different people love different things. What does bother me is the cult of dolphin worship that has sprung up around them. Ask most people if the bottlenosed dolphin is endangered, and they'll probably say yes. It isn't. In fact, at this point it would probably make more sense to be eating tuna safe dolphin. And, while many marine mammals are threatened, endangered, and critically endangered, there is a widely held belief that marine mammals deserve more protection that other organisms.
But all of that is neither here nor there. The fact is, we protect what we love, and if dolphin worship is bringing people closer to the ocean, that's great. But if we're drawing people closer to the ocean, should we not be educating them about it as well? That's why I always get whipped into a frenzy when people start asking me about marine mammals. It's fine to start with marine mammals, it really is, but more often than not, the conversation never goes beyond them. It's as if they were the only creatures in the sea.
So this article gets me worked up. Because the cult of the dolphin is so strong that people refuse to accept that sometimes nature isn't really that pleasant. That it isn't all like a Disney Movie. That we don't always know what's best and we can't always intervene. Yes, some dolphins might die in a New Jersey river, but they aren't dying from boat strikes or gillnets or pollution. They've wandered into a sub-optimal environment and are being selected against.
The quotes from the dolphin worshipers are revealing. "They're like children… They're frightened." Dolphins are not like children. Dolphins are nothing like children and they're not human beings and we have no idea what they're thinking or feeling. These are sleek, deadly, organic machines engineered by millions of years of natural selection to dominate their environment. Instead of making emotional appeals, we need take the time to understand our world.
It is necessary to love the things we need to protect. But I think it is naïve and patronizing to think that people will only love something if we reduce it to a cartoonish caricature of itself. Emotional appeals take advantage of ignorance to force a point. It's the reason why Americans get disgusted when other cultures eat dog or horse or guinea pig, while we see no problem eating beef. They preclude thoughtful introspection and investigation.
This is not a rant against people who study marine mammals, people who work with marine mammals, or even people who just plain love marine mammals. This is a rant against the end result of dogmatic dolphin worship. People like Joan Ocean* who takes thousands of dollars from innocent dolphin lovers to give them deep, spiritual, telepathic experiences with spinner dolphins in Hawaii, while basically harassing the dolphins and disrupting their natural behavior. A professor and great marine mammal biologist of mine once described these trips as "having 30 strangers surround you while you're sleeping and whisper 'I love you, you're beautiful' all night."
This is about people who demand we save dolphins from that New Jersey river while NOAA is trying to tell them "that actually trying to move them can cause fatalities rather than improving their prospects for survival."
This is really about resisting dogma, forcing people to confront information that challenges their beliefs, to question ideas and explore the possibility that we are wrong. And that while stopping at the water's edge may provide a nice comfortable view, the deeper you dive, the more glorious the ocean becomes.
So when people ask me at a bar how I feel about dolphins, I try to bring them a little further into my world.
Shifting Baselines has a good post on why some marine mammals need more protection than the science indicates.

The trouble isn't with dolphins, it's with us. We've been personally disempowered by an authoritarian culture, which tells us we are inherently "fallen" (most patriarchal religions) and evil, or at least defective (psychology). So we look for validation outside of ourselves. Those who get past obtaining their validation from "God" sometimes look for it from other sources, which they naturally want to place on a pedestal as models of good behavior. Ergo, dolphin-worshippers. In the same way, we want to demonize other animals, ergo, shooting wolves a la Sarah Palin.
I've had personal experience with dolphins. They are creatures capable of great love and also appalling savagery. In short, they are JUST LIKE US in that respect. That's not anthropomorphism, it's convergent mental evolution.
It is possible to know what another animal is thinking and feeling. You know what your dog is feeling when it scratches at the door, right? Sometimes an animal will tell you what it's thinking in terms so unequivocal you'd be putting your life in danger to ignore her! I'm not embarrassed or ashamed to say I made love with the dolphin in question. In fact, I've been trying to publish a novel based on that experience for years, with no success. Publishers can't seem to figure out how to market it.
And with all due respect to SFS Andrew, I know the dolphins' health depends entirely on the health of the oceans and all the organisms in them. So thanks for your study of chytrids… whatever they are.

Andrew, dude, you're debating acumen rocks!
And I totally agree with everything you said.
Conservationists are to Dolphin-worshippers as the ASPCA is to PETA.
And where exactly can I get some of that tuna-safe dolphin? It sounds delicious.
In the unlikely event you haven't seen it, look here.

Thanks for your response. I'll give you a serious answer. I think the way I do because of my experiences, and my reflection on my experiences, and comparing my experiences to those of others and to the acknowledged laws of nature.
Just because an experience is rare or extraordinarily unusual doesn't mean it's impossible. In fact, the more unusual an experience is, the more information can be gleaned from it. I wish I could convince some marine mammalogists of that.
You don't understand why I think the way I do because you haven't had my experiences and interpreted those experiences in the context I did. My interpretations would be subversive to your dominant paradigm. You would probably check into a psych ward and ask for anti-psychotic drugs and counseling.
To be really, really Skinnerian, you and I can't even tell what the other is thinking, under normal circumstances, all we can do is interpret each other's behavior. If we interpret correctly, then we understand the other's thoughts to the extent that our different experiences will allow. Even if I ask you what you're thinking, you might lie! So each of us is apparently trapped in our own 3-lb black box, the brain.
If think if you'll re-read my post carefully, and realize that I am being literal, not metaphorical, you'll have a better understanding of the highly unusual nature of my experience. This dolphin (a trained captive with access to free-release) and I spent a lot of time getting to know each other. She moderated her behavior in response to my human limitations. I began having what seemed like telepathic experiences with her. These were sometimes quite disturbing and made me question my sanity; however, they were almost always followed by a distinct change in her behavior that, oddly enough, reflected the content of our "conversation."
What did I do differently from every marine mammalogist and every other dolphin trainer in the world? Very simple: I didn't approach the dolphin with an agenda. I let her determine the agenda. (For an example see my excerpt in "Mind In The Waters," pg. 183, or "Making Waves" in the Nov. 1978 issue of Penthouse.) As psychologist Philip Zimbardo clearly established in the 1960's, our attitude toward a subject can act as a limiting or controlling factor on that subject's behavior. (See Lilly's "A Feeling of Weirdness" at
After several months of this type of communication, as well as her courtship behavior, my definition of what it means to be "human" got rather plastic. It has little to do with DNA or opposable thumbs, and a lot to do with self-awareness, other-awareness, communication, imagination, empathy and foresight, all of which the dolphins possess.
Descartes was utterly wrong; he was also inhumanly cruel, vivisecting animals. Their screams of agony, he said, had no more meaning than the squeak of a rusty nail being pulled from a board. Science is slowly coming around to the realization that animals are not insensate machines. They have internal lives.
In his book "Thinking Dolphins, Talking Whales" Frank Robson, trainer for Marineland, Napier, NZ states he trained all the dolphins there by telepathy and he explains how he did it. Ric O'Barry told me he telepathically trained the dolphins for the TV show "Flipper" because the shooting schedule didn't allow time for classical behavior modification! I have documented more anecdotal experiences but there's no space for them here.
It's understandable that scientists reject notions like telepathy, contaminated as they are with centuries of mystical and religious overlay. What I don't understand is why they reject the objective study of it! I don't find it incomprehensible, I think it's a biological function of the quantum effect known as "electron tunneling" wherein an electron "tunnels" through an insulator without actually moving through it.
But I'm no physicist, not even a biologist. My BA from New College of Florida is in Communications. I'm a former investigative reporter, now a freelance writer/photographer. I don't consider myself mystical or metaphysical or even religious. I'm an atheist. The intensity and duration of my experiences with this dolphin were unique. I'll be happy to discuss them privately with you if you're interested.
Mystics like to believe that everyone has latent "psychic powers" or ESP which just need to be "awakened." That's nonsense. It's genetic, and you don't have the right genes. If you only saw in B&W, like a dog, I might try all night to explain color to you, but you might conclude I was crazy or BS-ing you. I have the same problem trying to explain my experiences with the dolphin, with the added complication that a lot of the experience was non-verbal. Words, by their nature, convey only crude analogies of such an experience.
I encountered the same communications difficulties you're having in trying to talk to marine mammalogists about Dr. John C. Lilly's work. They couldn't discuss him impartially and objectively. They would curse him, denounce him, tell me I was an idiot for reading his books and then walk away. Scientific objectivity? I think not. Such rudeness, combined with my lack of math skills, turned me away from being a professional scientist. I regret that to this day.
Some dolphins do try to communicate in various modalities but since we're not listening they give up and earn their fish. Are you aware it was a dolphin in Marineland that taught a human – Adolph Frohn, the night janitor – to play catch, not the other way 'round? Nobody thought dolphins were even trainable until then (~ 1935). Frohn took all the credit and went on to become a famous dolphin trainer. What happened to the dolphin who trained him? Who knows? Who cares? It was just a dolphin.
Your dog? Sounds like he's playing a game with you! Have you thought about following him outside? Maybe he has found some interesting smell he wants to share with you! Oh, but you've got that useless human nose, haven't you? Never mind!
Thanks for studying chytrids. Frogs need you. – Malcolm
February 5, 2009 11:04 am
I knew chytrids are a fungus that ATTACKS frogs because I looked it up. That's why I wrote "Frogs need you," I was trying to be complimentary, but apparently you are biased against me because you mis-read my statement, either intentionally or deliberately.
When you start throwing words like "quack" around, it's a signal you want to end reasonable discussion, scientific enquiry and civility in general. I knew Dr. John C. Lilly personally; you never even met him. I've read almost all of his work; have you even read one of his books? Just one?
Lilly was a brilliant man, unorthodox, opinionated and eccentric. He had numerous scientific achievements in high-altitude medicine, neurophysiology and physics before he began study dolphins. NOWHERE IN HIS LITERATURE does he claim as you do that "LSD improved man's ability to talk to animals." He used LSD when it was still a legal psychoanalytic research tool. I've taken LSD about 40 times (so now you can disparage me if you want, too) and because it reduces threshold potentials at the synapse, it can lead to the temporary emergence of new neural pathways. It lowers the barriers our minds erect to filter the flood of signals coming into them, which can lead to receiving previously undetected stimuli from the environment. But I've never had the furniture, or any other inanimate objects, talk to me. That's a pretty cheap shot – and you know it.
You should really know something about a subject before you make an ass of yourself. Then at least you can claim to be a well-informed ass! Talking to your hippie friends doesn't make you an expert on LSD, or even slightly knowledgeable on the subject.
The statement I made about the dolphin training the janitor is I believe from Dr. Ken Norris' autobiography "The Dolphin Watcher," but as I don't have a copy here I can't look it up. Maybe you'd care to disparage Dr. Norris, too?
"All respectable scientists" are not in agreement about the impossibility of human-dolphin communication as you claim. That's an untenable blanket claim, and you know that, too! It's the kind of thing pompous personalities say when they're sure they're right but too lazy to do the real work of looking up who actually said what.
Dr. Lou Hermann has conclusively demonstrated that they can utilize grammar and syntax, one of the few non-humans to do so. And he has said "Humans and dolphins process information in the same way." "Respectable scientists," as you put it, are far from consensus on this issue. They keep being amazed when a dolphin shows some new cleverness, like de-boning cuttlefish, while I'm not. On the contrary, I expect it.
Have you ever even met a dolphin, Andrew? Gotten any closer than the cheap seats at Sea World? Yet from your ivory tower of ignorant erudition, you choose to belittle me and my experience. You aren't responding to my statements of fact because you have nothing, no experience, no resources, with which to challenge my 35 years of study in this field. So you resort to disparaging me and making snide remarks. How objective! How impartial! How SCIENTIFIC of you – NOT.
I really don't need your contempt, Andrew. It's a bad habit that suggests you have some unresolved self-image problems. I suggest you deal with them, before they adversely affect your career and your personal relationships. Sorry to call you on this but you obviously need somebody to put you in your place and if the gods have selected me to do that, so be it. Stick to your area of competence, frog-eating fungi, and leave dolphins, LSD and other "fringe areas" to those of us with the courage and the self-confidence to face the truly unknown.

Re: dude's "dolphin lover".
I just threw up in my mouth a little bit.
An instant classic, that one.
February 5, 2009 12:17 pm
I'm being honest about my experiences, which were admittedly rather unusual. Should I be ashamed of them or hide them for that reason? On the contrary, I think I have something original to contribute. Dolphin researchers and trainers talk about these things in back rooms at scientific meetings; I would rather see them discussed on the floor. It would be healthier for us and for the dolphins.
I think the main problem you have with me is that I'm not embarrassed enough to shut up, as most people would be. In fact, I'm quite proud of the relationship I had with that dolphin. We shared a profound trust, and our actions were based on love and mutual respect. I knew that much without having to talk to her.
I never said I accepted "channeling" as proof of the post-mortem existence of the dolphin; in fact, I don't believe in "life after death" (what an oxymoron!). That didn't prevent me from having the experience, which I finally had to resolve by letting go. You have no idea what I went through. I was chronically depressed, and sometimes suicidal, for five years afterward. When you lose someone you love deeply, it really doesn't matter if they are a different species, you still grieve, and that grief can affect your reason. That's the point I was trying to make.
Andrew, you still haven't answered any of the points I raised in my earlier statement. You're really resistant, aren't you? I can see I'm getting nowhere; you haven't even checked the link I gave you to Lilly's excerpt, or if you did you don't mention it. Obviously you don't think anything I've raised or mentioned is worth the waste of your precious time.
Nothing I have written here qualifies as a "rant." You call it a rant because you're contemptuous of me and dismissive of my experience. When you start asking me sarcastic questions like "Did the dolphin tell you while you were on LSD?" that's contempt. I knew you were being contemptuous of me before you did, so I don't feel I've lost anything.
As for you, Irradiatus, you have no concept of what true love is. True love is when you bare your innermost self to another and feel unconditionally accepted. I don't think you'll ever know, either. To you it's just a smutty little joke, so have a laugh at my expense. I can afford it. And if you stop eating shit, you won't throw up when you read something that disagrees with you.
Irradiatus permalinkFebruary 5, 2009 1:37 pm
LOL @ Malcolm re: "you have no idea what true love is."
My wife, lover, and best friend would beg to differ.
That's one person by the way (so far as she knows).
Nice handling, SFS and WhySharksMatter!
February 5, 2009 2:17 pm
My argument? My argument about WHAT? You have lost me.
Do you realize what you are saying? Why are you descending to ad hominem attacks on me? Are you seriously saying I have the mentality of a rapist or a pedophile, or are you just trying to get my goat? I honestly don't know any more.
I am neither, and I am profoundly offended. I am a victim of child sexual abuse, by a TRULY quack pseudo-scientist, I might add. I would never perpetrate that on anyone, I would kill myself first. I had false allegations of child abuse brought against me once, and I cleared myself. If you had been through that terrifying ordeal I doubt you would cast those aspersions with such little concern for the enormous damage you can do.
I realize now it was David who made the comments about Lilly, not Andrew, and I apologize for the mistake. But you both claim authorship of this blog, and the original article, above, doesn't bear a byline. So pardon me for being confused.
Andrew, exactly what is your motive? What are you trying to accomplish? Is your administration of this blog more important to you than the damage and pain you can cause real people? Are abstract ideas or proving yourself right more important than anything else to you?
This started out as YOUR complaint about "dolphin worshippers." I made a comment that the problem wasn't dolphins, it was the fact that we worship anything at all. And I disagreed with your opinion that we can't know what another species is thinking.
That was an honest and sincere disagreement. When you asked how I could hold such an opinion, I answered you rationally, and in great detail. I brought up Lilly in a failed attempt to find some common ground, to relate your problems communicating with me to my problems communicating with some scientists.
You did not let me have the "last word;" David responded by calling Lilly a quack. That was a diversion and a provocation. It had nothing to do with the points I'd raised.
Since neither of you acknowledge any familiarity with Lilly or his work I concluded you were just parroting somebody else's opinion. So far you've given me no evidence to the contrary. That makes you – pardon me – ignorant on the subject.
Ignorance is a bad thing only if you don't acknowledge it. I wouldn't dream of challenging you on chytrids, or sharks, or of calling your authorities quacks.
I have read every word both of you've written here, and thought about them. I started out trying to challenge some of your assumptions using my own experiences and citing references to prove my point. Instead of showing me the same respect, David asked me if the furniture talked to me on my acid trips, which revealed more of his ignorance, as well as his glowering contempt for me.
Why is it that discussions in blogs always end up in personal attacks? I wanted to challenge your ideas and concepts in a measured, reasoned way, not to launch personal attacks on you, and I didn't do so until David began addressing me in what I felt to be a snide and contemptuous tone. Do you deny it? All you have to do is go back and read everything in order, as I have done now several times. If you are the administrator, Andrew, you could have let my comments stand. As it was, you chose to let your partner take some cheap shots at me and MY friends.
And yes, I got upset, mainly because I expect better out of people who call themselves "scientists." I am once again profoundly disappointed in people who profess to be more lucid, more rational, and better-informed than we "laymen."
As for the dolphin, she repeatedly made her desires unequivocally clear. If you think a man in the water can rape a dolphin, I urge you to perform the experiment yourself and see how far you get. Practice holding your breath, you're going to need it.
I have no more time to waste on this. I am sorry now that I ever tried to enter into a rational discussion with either of you, it is apparently impossible. If your intention was to anger, frustrate and disillusion me, you have succeeded. If it was to humiliate or belittle me, you have failed. As Jacques Vallee says, "Since when has ridicule been part of the scientific method?"
February 5, 2009 2:36 pm
"she repeatedly made her desires unequivocally clear"
ridicule is not part of the scientific method – it is reserved for those who foist pseudoscience up as the real thing.
You have interpreted an animals actions through your own anthropomorphic filter, claiming she "loved you" – this is not science. Nor is it a rational argument upon which a "rational discussion" can be had.
I have a special bond with my cat – but I wouldn't dare try to label its emotions or the motivations for its actions, whether he likes my warmth or knows I'll give him food if he acts all cute. It is certainly not love in the pure human sense – he is not a human.
And telepathy with said dolphin? Does that even really need to be touched? Do you really think that is a good basis for a "rational argument" in a science blog?

Andrew: You wrote,
"The sexual exploitation of someone who is incapable of giving consent is rape. This is why I said in the beginning that we have a fundamental philosophical difference that cannot be resolved."
I accept the first sentence at face value. It is, in fact, part of my own ethics.
So please answer the following true/false question:
"Since all female animals are 'incapable of giving consent,' all acts of mating in the animal kingdom are rape."
T/F You only have two answers.
Now, explain your answer in 50 words or less. Cite relevant published sources or documented personal observations to support your opinion. These will not be included in the 50 word count.
I am not going to let you get away with this, sir. I don't need you to like me, I don't care if you approve or disapprove of what I did, and it may be beyond my ability to change your morals.
BUT I'LL BE DAMNED IF I'LL LET YOU GET AWAY WITH CALLING ME THE MORAL EQUIVALENT OF A RAPIST OR A PEDOPHILE IN A PUBLIC FORUM, and take it lying down!
I AM NEITHER, and since you have made the false accusation I request the right to defend myself. My self-defense starts with you answering the question above.
I DID NOT come to your site "looking for a fight," as you impute. I run a Google alert that sweeps up everything with "dolphin" and several other marine mammals. I came here as I do to most of the hits it returns out of curiosity, the desire to learn and the desire to keep up with the latest in marine mammal news, research and opinion.
I came back after a week because unlike some people I have a life outside the Internet and blogs, which occasionally demands my attention.
I have never claimed to be anything other than an amateur scientist. The original meaning of "amateur" is "one who does something for the love of it." I wanted to be a professional scientist, but I lacked the mathematical ability, the patience and the temperament to do so. However, I have retained an avid interest in science since my youth. If I address you using scientific terminology, it's not out of an attempt to pass myself off as a "pseudo-scientist," it's an attempt to speak to you in your own language. (I am a journalist – a professional communicator – by trade.)
I was raised in a family that lived and breathed "pseudo-science" and you have no concept of what it was like… unless, as I suspect, you come from a Southern Baptist or other repressive, dogmatic religious background. If so, you have my sympathy.
I acknowledge your experience with marine mammals, but it was with wild marine mammals, not ones that have been trained to tolerate and work with humans. The dolphin in question was exceptional in that she was at the time the only dolphin outside the U.S. Navy trained to work in the open ocean as part of her performance.
WhySharksMatter: Your last statement is PATENTLY WRONG. You have not acquired a full data set, and you have thus jumped to an erroneous and premature conclusion. The apparent "telepathic" communications commenced approximately 18 months before the dolphin died. I never said I "believed" what happened after she died. I didn't. That did not prevent the experiences from happening! On the contrary, I sincerely doubted my sanity even before she died and wrestled long and hard with the question of what was happening to me.
I am an atheist, and I try not to "believe" in anything. I consider "beliefs" to be an unsuccessful attempt to plug holes in our knowledge and understanding of nature with fantasies. I would rather accept "unknown" or "unknowable" than a belief.
Irradiatus: Yeah, this is a science blog but the topic of this thread was people's irrational beliefs about dolphins. Is that the subject of scientific discussion? I never pretended it was. As such, I felt I could add my 2¢ worth. I have a truly unique viewpoint, but none of you appreciate it. Neither do the mystics and "psychics" on the other side. That leave me feeling pretty goddam lonely.
Do any of you think for one instant that I would bother to try to tell this story and subject myself to scorn, ridicule, hostility and false allegations of being a rapist if I didn't think it was critically important for me to do so?
I don't care if you guys like me, you obviously don't, but your stereotypes are showing, gentlemen. I am not who you apparently think I am. And while I won't and cannot force you to like me, I want you to understand my experience for what it was. Perhaps, if you are as truly open-minded as you pride yourselves on being, you will learn something, if that is still possible. And I want the chance to recover your respect. I think I deserve that, at least.
March 15, 2009 5:11 am
Ooooh-kay… I think others have responded to MJB better than I can from the middle of Illinois. That was an interesting aside.
Anyway, I wish people would stop to think; dolphins are top predators, like bluefin tuna. The fact that there are millions of them suggests they're living on something and that eventually, something lives on them. Focusing on one large charismatic organism misses the point that there's a whole ecosystem that needs to be protected, and it ain't because of Karma, it's to save our own asses in the long run.
One example, and please correct me if I have this wrong. I read somewhere that cruise ships are required to grind up their plastic trash below a certain size before dumping it at sea. Presumably this is to protect larger sea creatures. But doesn't that just endanger smaller sea creatures? The ones the larger sea creatures live on? Shouldn't we be protecting whole ecosystems?

Re: communicating with dolphins
I know it's not nearly as interesting as the debate above but from what I have read about Lou Herman's work in Hawaii we can at least communicate with dolphins in one directions. He and his staff taught a number of captive dolphins to respond to hand signals representing fairly complex communication. eg determine if an object was or was not in their pool, retrieve object A, take object B to object C etc.
Humans and dolphins were not talking back and forth but I think that qualifies as real communication, don't you?
May 22, 2009 11:23 pm
southern stfu and malcom u r right in every way while i have never mated with a dolphin or even been around one if the dolphin show signs of sexual interest than it's sort of a DUH!!!!!! she is interested in you so shut up southern and you go malcom thank you.

Lilly haters always try to diminish all of his contributions to science and medicine by saying things like that he thought he could communicate with dolphins with LSD, or that he was cruel to the dolphins in the beginning.
They fail to tip their hats to the Father of all dolphin research and the man whose work inspired the creation of the Marine Mammal Protection Act.
As of this writing, a group of scientists are calling for dolphins to be considered "non-human persons" requiring elevated rights. They have also moved them up in the intelligence level to second to human (I disagree) .
At any rate it's nice to see that Lilly's work is being validated all these years later and it's nice to see science pissing on the trite and jealous.
Tony permalinkJanuary 6, 2010 12:09 am
As an aside, I find it interesting that a major discovery regarding Vitamin C and it's affects on cancer cells has fr the most part been ignored. I do remember the folks at NIH complaining about lack of funding. One of many promising cancer treatment discoveries that I've read about and watched fall by the wayside.
Regarding the immune system, I am not aware of any serious studies any significant amount of C to discount Pauling's claims. This was the same problem with the cancer studies, although there it was discovered that a steady state was needed via IV.
Lilly didn't start animal research, but he did foster a new area of investigation and popularized the notion that cetaceans are another intelligent and sentient species on the planet.
I believe that one of the reasons that no one has replicated his results is because of the terrible way he initially used when working with the dolphins. Much to his credit he realized his treatment as cruel and spent much of the remainder of his life making up for it, in my opinion.
Any attempt at duplicating his results using the same methods in today's world would most certainly result in charges of animal cruelty. But in fairness to Lilly, back in the day animals did not have nearly as much respect and rights as they now.
As dolphin research is logistically and financially a disaster it isn't fair to say that people have been trying to get the same results for forty years? Under what conditions?
We also have no way of knowing how far the Navy has gone in this area as they went classified in the 1970s.
Essentially the jury is still out. You might enjoy this article:

If you are so concerned that they are making false statements about your book without having read it, why not send one of them a copy to read and review? That way they can get their facts straight from the source. I could be wrong, but I bet either of them would be willing to give it an honest read to better understand your perspective of what happened between you and Ruby.

I never was pretending. I'm still not pretending. Would it make any difference to you if I said my book was a factual autobiography? I think not, because I don't have the quantitative data you require.
Given that, why do you give a fuck whether I wrote a novel or not? Nothing could matter less to you, aside from beating me down. That seems more important to you than whether you can learn anything interesting about dolphins, or humans, from my experience.
I'll be happy to describe my experience in utterly factual terms with any bona-fide scientist who cares to listen. That would exclude you, David & Andrew.

On February 22, 2011, journalist Jane Bowron had been living in her hometown of Christchurch, New Zealand, when the city was struck by a magnitude 6.3 earthquake, only five months after a 7.1 earthquake. While the first quake had caused damage but no fatalities, the second became the ultimate horror story: entire suburbs were decimated, houses collapsed, hillsides fell away, and people were killed or trapped in rubble and raging fires. As the historic city lay in ruins, Bowron managed to find a phone, call her newspaper, and deliver a moving human account of the scene around her. For the next three months, she continued to send regular dispatches of everyday life being lived in the most extraordinary of circumstances as citizens struggled to cope with grief, loss, and the new reality. Brilliantly written and suffused with unexpected humor, this account provides a rare look into life after devastation.

Sahasam - Movie Review: Desi version of Indiana Jones
For starters, the reason Sahasam is being compared with Indiana Jones is not because it's neither the copy of it nor even half as good as it. It's simply because it's a reasonably better Telugu film made along the lines of the Hollywood flick.
Wielding the megaphone after four years, National award-winning director Chandrasekhar Yeleti has givev Telugu audiences an appetising desi flavour with technical finesse that is certainly better than several meaningless films that come week after week, but doesn't quite leave an impact.
Gautham, played by Gopichand, works as a security guard and aspires to earn easy money through lottery until one day, when he comes to learn about a hidden a treasure trove of 900 diamonds and other ornaments in Hingalji Devi temple housed in Pakistan. When Gautham discovers that his grandfather Suryanarayana Varma buried the treasure years ago, it becomes his sole responsibility to lawfully claim what belongs to him. As the title suggests, does Gautham have the bravery in him to fight for the treasure amidst several obstacles along the way? This forms the rest of the story.
Sahasam stays away from the usual, melodramatic love saga and instead focuses on developing an engrossing story of a treasure hunt. This is one of the reasons why you don't regret watching it even though it's partly cliched.

Heart of Darkness
by Joseph Conrad
Light and Dark
Symbolism, Imagery, Allegory
Put away your yin-yang posters: in Heart of Darkness, light doesn't necessarily symbolize pure goodness or pure enlightenment. In fact, Conrad's vision is so dark that we're not even sure he fully trusts light. As Marlow says, "sunlight can be made to lie, too" (3.50).
Over and over, we see light giving way to darkness: the sun sets, sane people go crazy, and the white ivory introduces a brutal trade. And over and over, we see black and white merging: Brussels as a "whited sepulcher" (1.21); the ivory deep in the black jungle; the white-capped woman knitting with black wool (1.24), the Intended as a "pale head" dressed "all in black" (3.53).
And then, in case you weren't quite confused enough, everything gets more complicated: Marlow compares white men to black men, and concludes (potentially) that these men are all the same. That doesn't sound so confusing? Well, consider what happens when his steamboat is stuck in the fog: he says that the fog is so thick that they can't tell up from down. Without understanding differences—like the difference between black and white, or up and down—you can't tell anything at all. There's no meaning. Doesn't that sound pretty horrific?

Misc. Comments
Section 12 is for SATTB solo, implying that there is a non-solo - ie choral - component; RISM seems to confirm this. Some parts list "alto concertato", e.g. Some other versions listed at RISM (possibly different settings of the Psalm, though in the same key) require orchestra.
Composed 1794–1796 or earlier (nb: - )(dates on autograph manuscripts are not always reliable composition dates, see note in comment section @ Symphony, Op.67, by Ferdinand Hiller workpage, e.g.) , but seems not to have been published until his complete choral works for the Sing.-zu-Berlin were published in 1837-39 (1838 for the relevant volume).
Described in the new 1986 edition of this work as "Motette für vier- bis achtstimmigen Solo- und Tuttichor".

Justin Smith had more travel on his itinerary this week, with flights scheduled for Minnesota and Jacksonville.
But after one day at 49ers headquarters, he decided to stay put.
"Why go on another visit if you're just going to be right back here?" the defensive end said.
The 49ers prevented Smith from being a frequent flyer by securing the free agent with a six-year contract for $45 million on Saturday, including $20 million in guarantees.
The contract offer was just part of an all-out blitz to keep Smith from leaving town, a courtship that included a helicopter ride over San Francisco attractions such as Alcatraz and the Golden Gate Bridge.
Smith said Saturday that he enjoyed being a tourist, but he added that the key to the 49ers' pitch was meeting the coaching staff, especially defensive coordinator Greg Manusky.
The feeling was mutual. Coach Mike Nolan, with a compliment the 49ers don't throw around lightly, said Smith "is kind of in the mold of a Bryant Young from a work-ethic standpoint."
Smith, 28, is listed at 6-foot-4, 275 pounds. He said he could play defensive end in a 3-4 scheme just as well as he could in a 4-3 - or even play some outside linebacker in a 3-4 if called upon.
"In Cincinnati, we switched from 4-3 to 3-4 all the time," he said. "A lot of people don't know, but a lot of teams do that, depending on down and distance, the formations offenses are throwing at defenses, and so I've done a lot before.
Smith set a career high with 8.5 sacks in 2001 and continued to produce steady sack numbers until last season, when his total plummeted to two.
He attributed that dropoff to injuries elsewhere in the Cincinnati defense. Smith said a depleted linebacker corps, as well as a banged-up secondary, forced the Bengals into blitzing situations that altered his role.
"I've never tried to specialize. I'm not a pass-rusher, not a run-stopper," Smith said. "I just play football." The 49ers' pass rush could use a boost, as last season they finished 21st in the NFL with 31 sacks.
Smith, a native of Holts Summit, Mo. - pop. 2,935 - was a standout at the University of Missouri before the Bengals plucked him with the No. 4 overall pick in 2001, one spot ahead of LaDainian Tomlinson.
He has played 111 consecutive regular-season games and hasn't missed a day of work since the season opener his rookie season. That absence was because of a contract situation, not an injury.
"There were several games I probably could have missed or should have missed. But I don't like to leave my guys out there and that is the way I have always been," he said. Smith led Bengals linemen in tackles for six consecutive seasons, including last year when NFL.com credited him with 78 tackles.
Smith's signing highlighted an active weekend for the 49ers, who on Friday agreed to terms with four-time Pro Bowl receiver Isaac Bruce. The team had yet to announce the deal officially, but multiple reports pegged the price tag at two years and $6 million.

Sporting judge Gianpaolo Tosel ruled on Wednesday there will be no sanction against Meggiorini because the evidence from other players was contradictory and, while insults were traded, he could not be sure they had a racist element.
"The huge amount of evidence gathered does not allow me to make a certain judgement, beyond all reasonable doubt, regarding any racist connotations of the insult allegedly directed by Meggiorini towards Pogba," said Tosel in his report.
The alleged incident happened just before halftime in the Serie A match on April 28, which Juventus won 2-0.
Tosel said it was clear the two players traded insults and the atmosphere was still heated when they went in at halftime.
But he said he could not be clear of "the nature of the exact words directed by Meggiorini to Pogba".
He added that the referee, although close, did not hear the exact words because of the noise in the stadium and the sound of other players joining in the shouting.
"Because a judgement of blame cannot be founded on evidence which allows the hypothesis, even marginally, of an alternative possibility (the sporting judge) has decided to not adopt any sanctions," said the report.
Meggiorini said immediately after the game that he had aimed a "normal insult" at the 20-year-old French player.
"Pogba should not go running and crying if someone says something to him," he added at the time.

It's officially FALL everyone (yayyyy!!!)!!!!
And, is the weather ever feeling like autumn here in Seattle. On Sunday (first day of fall) a big storm blew into Seattle causing rain showers and crazy amounts of wind. The temperature has dropped as well so now the air has a little crisp fall bite to it. I can officially start parading around in sweaters and these new fall booties that I am loving!
The rain and wind did not stop Lee and I from enjoying the weekend and celebrating the new season. This weekend we spent some time in our (almost) new neighborhood. We are in the process of moving to new digs a few blocks down from our current spot in Capitol Hill. Right now we live in a slightly more residential area on the Hill, but our new place will be much more in the heart of urban life.
We walked down to our new 'hood and grabbed some Pumpkin Spice Lattes at our favorite coffee place in the area, Espresso Vivace.
Yum! The perfect blend of espresso, milk, and pumpkin spice goodness. And, check out that foam art!
After we fulfilled our caffeine quota for the day we hit up the Broadway Farmer's Market which will be less than a half mile from our new home. While I absolutely love and adore Seattle's iconic Pike's Place Market it will be nice to have a farmer's market much closer to us! Also, I feel like some of the neighborhood market's have more local farmer's selling their wares vs. a grocer.
Check out this awesome produce! I love all the colors of fresh veggies and fruit!
While we were shopping around we also grabbed some quesadillas from a local vendor. These were not your normal, run-of-the-mill quesadillas, however. This guy grabs a bunch of veggies from the market itself, grills up and sautés them, tops them with cheese, and folds it into a tortilla.
Awwww- market goodness!
I was so tempted to buy these gorgeous sunflowers as well, but our hands and bags were already stuffed. Next time!
After our market splurge we headed over to the new place to get a lay of the land. And, boy, did we ever love the view from the land! Here's a picture from the community rooftop deck on our building. I think we will be spending just a little bit of time up there!
After our "Sunday Fall Funday" we came home and I got to work on getting ready for the week. I like to prep everything as much as possible the night before a workday and this also includes breakfast! My go-to breakfast lately has been smoothies. They are so easy to make the night before, put into the fridge, and then drink on your way to work or while you are getting ready in the morning. My current favorite smoothie was inspired by this post by Iowa Girl Eats.
Warning- this smoothie is GREEN! Green, but oh so tasty and good for you! The green color comes from the spinach loaded into this breakfast treat. I know what you are thinking- "Spinach? In a smoothie? Sounds like a gross health food drink!" Trust me, you do not taste the spinach at all! My version of this smoothie just tastes like a delicious chocolate, banana, and peanut butter shake.
Here's how you start the smoothie. First, make sure you have some frozen bananas on hand. What I usually do is buy regular bananas, chop them up into small pieces, put each individual banana into an individual plastic baggie or other small container, and then pop into the freezer. You need 1 banana per smoothie so this way you can just take out the exact amount you need from the freezer.
Add your frozen banana first to the blender:
Then add in Chocolate whey protein powder. I use this protein powder because I think it has the best overall taste and nutritional profile (24 grams protein per scoop!). I usually use about a half scoop in the smoothie.
Next, add in a squirt of honey, 1 tbsp peanut butter, 1 tbsp "unsweetened" cocoa powder (I like Hershey's Dark Chocolate), and then 1/2 cup Fage 0% Greek Yogurt. Feel free to use whatever yogurt you like, but I love Fage 0% due to the fact it's so low in sugar and so high in protein! Also, definitely do not forget the cocoa powder- this makes the smoothie extra chocolatey tasting!
Now, add in 1 cup spinach to the mix (don't be afraid!). And then add in 1 cup milk (I like to use Unsweetened Vanilla Almond Milk).
Now it's time to blend all those goodies together! Blend on high until you no longer see any green pieces and everything is a nice uniform brown-green color.
I like to make these the night before and pour them into my favorite Blender Shaker bottle. I just pop it into the fridge and then take out the next morning to enjoy. In my smoothie experience this is the best kind of smoothie to make the night before- it tastes just as good the next day!
Just grab and go and head out the door with your healthy breakfast meal!
Now, go take on the world armed with this delicious spinach smoothie! Happy Monday all!

Easy Ways to Cut 100 Calories at Every Meal
These food subtractions are so painless, you won't be able to tell the difference—until you're pulling up your skinny jeans.
The science is simple: Eating fewer calories makes you drop pounds. But depriving yourself by skimping on meals and banishing snacks only makes you hungry and pissed off. Plus, you are more likely to binge in the end anyway. The real solution lies in cutting out just a few little extra items from each meal (truly, your taste buds won't even realize their absence) as well as making some food swaps so you sacrifice one fat-bomb ingredient and replace it with a more flavorful option. Incorporate a few of these ideas into your day and you'll soon feel lighter and—as a bonus—healthier.
•Instead of one croissant, eat two pieces of whole-wheat toast with a smidge of butter or cream cheese on each slice.
•Scoop out the white-bread inside of your plain bagel.
•Order or whip up an egg-white scramble with two pieces of turkey bacon rather than a whole-egg omelette with two pieces of pork bacon.
•Use 4 tablespoons of hummus instead of 2 tablespoons of regular mayonnaise on your sandwich. Or go with mustard, which is practically calorie-free (just 3 in each little packet!).
•Dress your salad with 1 tablespoon each of oil and vinegar in place of creamy ranch dressing.
•Eat your French-or Italian-bread sandwich/hero open-faced so you consume only one slice of bread.
•Opt for a 1-cup serving of no-butter microwave popcorn rather than munching on a bag of potato chips.
•Snack on a medium-size cup of low-fat frozen yogurt in lieu of a candy bar.
•Skip the croutons, halve the Parmesan dressing, and say no to extra cheese on top of your Caesar salad.
•Eat two part-skim string cheeses instead of a plate of three crackers with whole-milk cheese cubes.
•Skip the cheese and sour cream that often come as toppings on a bowl of chili or a baked potato.
•Pass on the roll or pretzel stick that arrives with your soup or salad.
•Order your burger sans cheese.
•Nosh on a handful of pretzels at the bar during happy hour rather than the same amount of nuts.
•Say no when your server offers fresh grated Parmesan cheese on your pasta.
•Replace your vodka tonic with a vodka soda. (Soda water, like regular water, has nada calories.)
•Dunk 10 tortilla chips in salsa, not guacamole.
•Share a small order of spicy wings on the bone instead of breaded chicken wings.
•When you cook at home, use a spray like Pam to coat the pan (spritz for one full second) instead of using a tablespoon of olive oil.
•Put a dollop of Tru Whip on your slice of pie or cake rather than 2 tablespoons of hot fudge or chocolate syrup.

AUGUSTA, Ga.---From Crime Team 12, Richmond County investigators are looking for Dominique Williams. He's a suspect in the shooting incident early Sunday outside Club Platinum on North Leg Rd. that left a teenager wounded.
The 17-year old victim was wounded in the leg area and treated at Eisenhower Army Medical Center. His mother told News 12 that the bullet was still in his body. Earlier, investigators said he was not cooperating with them.
The club is for teens, and does not have an alcohol license. Sheriff's Sgt. Richard Elim of the Vice Division told News 12 officers are taking a closer look at the club's business license now. They could make a recommendation to the City Commission on any possible action to take against the club.

Best would be if the user could select what part of the screen should be exported to PDF, but if that isn't possible it's also good if the entire printscreen could be exported...
If not possible with WP I can also create it with HTML, so if someone has an HTML solution, I'm open for it.

Oh geez.
Send em off to SIL, or return them to Babies R Us for store credit, or donate them, or, you know, anything BUT complain.
I'm cloth diapering too, so I get it, but you sound so entitled and ungrateful. They don't have to get you ANYTHING so the fact they did is a -gift-. Say thank you, and move on with your life. It's not anyone else's responsibility to build your cloth diaper supply or anything like that.
And seriously? I don't think them giving you a pack of diapers means they expect you to fail at everything you do. Way to blow things out of proportion. Feeling a bit insecure, are we?
Don't worry about it. Donate the disposables and in a couple months make sure to rub it in her face how much you love cloth diapering and breast feeding.
Donate them or give them to SIL.
Simple enough.
I can do a fairly good impression of someone who cares about your problem.
Make lemonade!

Married 7/04**AA 4/08**LA 12/09
Baby # 3 is a Boy!!!
I don't think it's the gift that annoys her. I think it's the fact that she thinks her MIL intentionally left out the CD info so that people would give them to her because they don't like the decision she made. Although, I suppose you could argue that's an unreasonable assumption.
good luck!
Exactly. I did not even expect a shower so I am so thankful to dh's family to throw one. It just gives me issues on how mil acts about everything being organic (for example mattress and wipes and even the food dh and I eat) or like I said the cloth diapering. I was planning on buying everything myself but I hate the feeling I get when I receive something ill never use and I feel bad because someone spent their money on it (I hate when people buy me things, seriously no joke)

Arena's impact on local economy is huge
The Tunica Arena's 12th anniversary is shaping up to be a banner year, with 12 new events booked, including a trio of world events in the line-up.
Arena director Steve Sosebee said he and staffers Rebecca Fyfe and Leigh Watson have hit the road and the airwaves to attract new bookings. Arena staff also work closely with the Tunica Convention & Visitors Bureau. Now, the schedule is full on all but four weekends in 2013, Sosebee said.
For the first quarter, arena events have made an estimated $2.5 million impact on the local economy, Sosebee said last week at Tunica Rotary, on track to match Fiscal Year 2012's $10 million total impact. The arena is bringing visitors to Tunica casinos, filling hotel rooms and restaurants, and adding to the bottom line at local gas stations and grocery stores, Sosebee said.

Abstract2,3-Dichloroquinoxaline and some of its derivatives have been reacted with malononitrile and ethyl cyanoacetate to yield a variety of 3-chloro-2-(cyanomethylene)- 1,2-dihydroquinoxaline derivatives. The reaction of 3-chloro-2-(dicyanomethylene)-1,2- dihydroquinoxaline (2e) with pyridine and its methyl derivatives led to the zwitterionic structures 6a-6c. The structures of the newly synthesized compounds were assigned by spectroscopic data and elemental analyses.
Keywords: 2; 3-Dichloroquinoxaline; ethoxycarbonylcyanomethylene- and dicyano- methylene-3-chloro-1; 2-dihydroquinoxalines; betaine structures; spectroscopic data

Good value and reliable chain comfort in historic St. Paul Square.
This 64-room all-suites hotel has experienced more reinventions than Madonna. The original structure built in 1896 has served as a leather manufacturer, grocery store and a speakeasy during prohibition, with the lobby's original walls, stained glass doors and staircase reminders of days gone by. Simple but spacious standard suites feature solid oak Mission-style furnishings and are available with either two full beds or one king; deluxe double suites are a bit roomier. All have a sleeper sofa, mini wet bar, microwave, compact refrigerator and free high-speed Internet access. Light sleepers may want to avoid the first floor due to foot and traffic noise, but keep in mind that there's no getting away from the interstate. The upside is that the Commerce Street location gives you direct access to almost everything downtown by walking, a short taxi ride or the new Primo BRT (Bus Rapid Transit) service with a stop across the street from the hotel. Business travelers will appreciate the two-block walk to the convention center; from there it's just a staircase down to the River Walk. Perks include free parking, a complimentary breakfast buffet in the dining area (no on-site restaurant), a fitness center, a business center and free 24-hour coffee. Not allowed on-site: smoking and pets.
