Right Whale Mothers "Whisper" to Their Calves to Avoid Attracting Predators | Nicholas School of
DURHAM, N.C. -- As new moms, North Atlantic right whales tone down their underwater vocalizations and "whisper" to their young calves to avoid attracting predators, a new study by scientists at Syracuse University, Duke University and NOAA Fisheries' Northeast Fisheries Center finds.
The whales, which are critically endangered, have few natural predators due to their size, but their calves are vulnerable to orcas and sharks when young.
The peer-reviewed study, published Oct. 9 in Biology Letters , reveals the new mothers drastically reduce their production of a vocalization known as an "up call" that the species typically uses to communicate with other right whales! Videos for Students Exposed To Unknown Chemical In 2:07 Students exposed to unknown chemical in hazmat incident at Fresno City College Yahoo!! An up call produces a short, loud "whoop" sound that rises sharply, can travel long distances underwater, and lasts for up to two seconds.
In its place, new mothers communicate to their young through a very quiet, short, grunt-like sound that isn't audible more than a short distance away.

Google Maps add new descriptive audio directions to help visually impaired people | The
Google has added new voice directions that will make the app easier to use for people with visual impairments.
The app will now give people more information about where they are, and when they should be using extra caution, as they move around places.
It is intended to make it easier for people to walk around with more confidence while travelling in unknown and unfamiliar places.

For now, the feature is only available in the US and Japan, but is likely to roll out across more areas with time.
People with visual impairments worked with the tech giant to build the new option, providing more thorough verbal guidance, such as the distance until their next turn and the direction they are walking.
When coming up to a large intersection, users receive a warning to cross with extra caution, while a spoken notification will let them know they are being rerouted if they have accidentally gone in the wrong direction.

Folk-rock is a genre that can feel oversaturated. Mumford & Sons popularized the genre in terms of its mainstream success, but other artists have taken that grander sound and imbued it with a greater sense of intimacy. Big Thief established precisely that on Masterpiece , which is evident from the first strums of the acoustic guitar on opener “Little Arrow”. Lenker almost whispers the words as if you’re the only person meant to hear them, like she’s confiding a personal secret in you. But the booming drums and electric guitars on the titular track immediately break that quietude. It shows that Big Thief are a group that don’t write just one type of song, but rather embrace a multitude of approaches.
