True stories: dolphin answers whales' SOS call; pod of dolphins save severely-injured surfer from becoming shark's bait

http://www.worldculturepictorial.com/bl ... ll-dolphin
Surfer Todd Endris needed a miracle. The shark - a monster great white that came out of nowhere - had hit him three times, peeling the skin off his back and mauling his right leg to the bone. That’s when a pod of bottlenose dolphins intervened, forming a protective ring around Endris, allowing him to get to shore, where quick first aid provided by a friend saved his life. “Truly a miracle,” Endris told TODAY’s Natalie Morales on Thursday.

The dolphin – nicknamed Moko by local residents, who said it spent much of its time swimming playfully with beachgoers – helped two pygmy sperm whales, facing imminent death after becoming stranded on a sandbar, swim to safety. Until Moko's arrival, rescuers feared the mother and calf would have to be put down to prevent them suffering a prolonged death on Mahia beach, about 300 miles north-east of Wellington. Malcolm Smith and his team from the New Zealand Conservation Department had tried in vain to rescue the animals for an hour-and-a-half. With their effort faltering, it seemed only a matter of time before the operation was called off. "They kept getting disoriented and stranding again," Mr Smith said yesterday. "They couldn't find their way back past (the sandbar] to the sea."

Just as it seemed all hope was lost, Moko appeared. The dolphin approached the whales, leading them 200m along the beach before navigating them out to the open sea. Mr Smith believes the dolphin heard the whales' distress calls and came to their aid. "It was looking like it was going to be a bad outcome for the whales ... then Moko came along and fixed it," he said. "They had arched their backs and were calling to one another, but as soon as the dolphin turned up, they submerged and followed her.

"I don't speak whale and I don't speak dolphin, but there was obviously something that went on, because the two whales changed from being quite distressed to following the dolphin willingly and directly along the beach and straight out to sea." Another rescuer, Juanita Symes, added: "Moko came flying through the water and pushed in between us and the whales. She got them to head toward the hill, where the channel is. It was an amazing experience. The best day of my life."


Anton van Helden, a marine mammals expert at New Zealand's national museum, Te Papa Tongarewa, said the reports of Moko's rescue, while "fantastic", were believable because the dolphins have "a great capacity for altruistic activities". He cited evidence of dolphins protecting people lost at sea, and their playfulness with other animals. "We've seen bottlenose dolphins getting lifted up on the noses of humpback whales and flicked out of the water just for fun," he said. "But it's the first time I've heard of an inter-species refloating technique. I think that's wonderful." Since the rescue, Mr Smith said, the whales had not been spotted, although Moko soon returned to the beach and joined in games with local residents. "I shouldn't do this, I know we are meant to remain scientific," he added, "but I actually went into the water with the dolphin and gave it a pat afterwards, because she really did save the day."

Acoustic Signature Referance Grande: Our Statement in building turntables. A masterpiece of German Engineering. In our Grande all the knowledge and technology we have was implemented. The Grande Reference is a floor standing turntable which gives you a perfect experience while you listen to your records. The results of our passion and commitment is the Grande Reference Turntable capable of reproducing music with up to 3 tonearms at the same time.

The Grande Reference Turntable combines outstanding design and function with german engineering. We combined all the needed different craftmanships into a masterpiece of audio reproduction.
The Grande Reference comes as a 200kg set of perfectly manufactured massive aluminium enable you to hear finest and elaborate musical details with out any losses.

Highest precision and the manufacturing in Germany guarantee reliability and the perfect function of this turntable. To make sure that every Grande Reference is exactly the same we produce nearly every part on computer controlled CNC machines.

$37,500

Acoustic Signature Analog One MKII: For the Analog One MkIII, a 5 cm thick turntable platter made of aluminium, and a 8 cm solid aluminium
chassis, which also carries all attachments, form the base of the turntable. With 3 adjustable feet the overall turntable can be adjusted. The platter is made of a very soft alloy to optimize its periodic resonance, and is coated on the rear side with resonance-reducing material.

The bearing is the heart of any turntable. Complex research and development allowed us to invent a bearing which unites exact fit, lack of noise, low friction and long term stability. The platter axle consists of a hardened special steel, which is polished. At the end of the axle an extremely hard tungsten carbide ball is mounted. Perfectly matched to the divided bushes from sinter bronze are manufactured. They are aged, self-lubricating and therefore maintenance free. As bearing bottom we use the High Tech material TIDORFOLON. Our bearing runs dry - without oil. The external drive motor of the turntable is run by its own electronic control.

The Alpha then uses the DC current and its own built in precision oscillator to produce a perfectly clean sine wave of 24V. This perfect output wave is then used to power the motor, resulting in a clean, steady spin. The Alpha is impervious to the negative effects household and computer appliances can have on a turntable drive. Fluctuations are reduced with this solution. The mass of the platter
with its inertia is an integral part of the turntable concept. Least amount of bearing friction, complex drive control and large inertia guarantee perfect synchronization. The tonearm mounting plates are adjustable.

The mounting of any desired tonearm will be possible, with a maximum of 3 tonearm mounting plates on one turntable. Highest precision and the manufacturing in Germany guarantee reliability and the perfect function of this turntable. To make sure that every Analog One MKIII is exactly the same we produce nearly every part on computer controlled CNC machines.

only $10,500
