Gorilla Seeks Help Using Sign Language 53 minutes ago Add Top Stories - AP to My Yahoo! By BILEN MESFIN, Associated Press Writer WOODSIDE, Calif. - When Koko the gorilla used the American Sign Language gesture for pain and pointed to her mouth, 12 specialists, including three dentists, sprang into action. AP Photo The result? Her first full medical examination in about 20 years, an extracted tooth and a clean bill of health. About a month ago, Koko, a 300-plus-pound ape who became famous for mastering more than 1,000 signs, began telling her handlers at the Gorilla Foundation in Woodside she was in pain. They quickly constructed a pain chart, offering Koko a scale from one to 10. When Koko started pointing to nine or 10 too often, a dental appointment was made. And because anesthesia would be involved, her handlers used the opportunity to give Koko a head-to-toe exam. "She's quite articulate," volunteer Johnpaul Slater said. "She'll tell us how bad she's feeling, how bad the pain is. It looked like it was time to do something." Twelve specialists — a Stanford cardiologist, three anesthesiologists, three dentists, an ear and throat specialist, two veterinarians, a gastroenterologist and a gynecologist — volunteered to help. "It's not often that we get to work on a celebrity," said Dr. David Liang, assistant professor of medicine at Stanford. "Probably, Koko is less demanding." The team came to Koko on Sunday, bringing portable X-ray and ultrasound machines. They set up shop at her "apartment," which looks like a remodeled box car, complete with a makeshift toilet, television, DVD player and lots of toys. After four hours of tests — including a colonoscopy, gynecological exam, dental work, X-rays, and ultrasounds — doctors pronounced her fit. Koko, who celebrated her 33rd birthday July 4, was due for a checkup. While gorillas in captivity are known to live into their 50s, they are susceptible to heart disease and a thickening of the arteries. Koko and Ndume, her partner of 11 years (he doesn't "speak"), have been trying unsuccessfully to have a baby, and the doctors thought the checkup could let them know whether she had any biological problems preventing it. She doesn't. Her teacher, Francine Patterson, was at her side when the anesthesiologist prepared to put her under in the morning, and apparently Koko asked to meet her specialists. They crowded around her, and Koko, who plays favorites, asked one woman wearing red to come closer. The woman handed her a business card, which Koko promptly ate. Otherwise, Koko was calm, Liang said. The Gorilla Foundation has studied gorilla intelligence by teaching American Sign Language to Koko and another gorilla, Michael, who died in 2000.

Ahamd did put on a great show. The band was very tight.

I would never thought of collecting them. I usually through them out whenever I get them and read through them.

So I went and saw both Jimmy Scott and Ahmad Jamal. Both shows were wonderful. I have to say I did enjoy Jimmy Scott's singing. Did anyone else get to see the shows?

Yes, hardbopjazz, someday you too will pass through the portal. May the bluenote be with you.

wow, that's so Funktastic!

He was 56.

That was the difference between Cartier-Bresson and the rest of us. The expression 'The Decisive Moment' defined this Master! I rank in the top 3 photographer that ever lived. Who are the other two, in your opinion? (Just curious.) they would be Ansel Adams. He was so great at landscapes. and the other is Alfred Eisenstaedt . Eisenstaedt took many photos for Life Magazine. Most famous shot was the sailor kissing the girl in Time Square in NYC.

Hey, it would be shit I might not have ever discovered. Worth every cent.

My wife is away that time, I could just sleep in the car.

So are the Heath Brothers and Jackie McLean. They will be there too.

How much money have you spent on music because of this board? I’ve read so many recommendations here and taken advice on music, that I could have had enough money for a Hugo.

Outside of Ravi, do the other 2 play music?

He began in Dizzy's band on alto then moved on to Hodges' band still playing alto, what recordings exists?

Have a good one.

By Saturday we will hit 200,000 posts.

What are some of the great trumpet players to come along in the past 20 years? Roy Hargrove is really the only one that I see out there doing some original stuff. Michael Mossman is another one that I can think of.

Hopefully they will hit the NYC area and I will go see them again.

Where are they playing? Right now there at the Blue Note in Tokyo. Will the be in the states soon?
