Amazing Shark Video
Sea-gram contributors Tony D'Alessandro and Bob Greco both found this dramatic video shot by shark conservationist and photographer Joe Romeiro. It shows professional diver. and Woman Divers Hall of Fame member, Christina Zenato interacting with Caribbean reef sharks.
Eventually, one shark falls into a deep trance, called "Tonic Immobility," as the diver's metal-gloved hand overloads the shark's sensory organs located in its snout:

Timing Is Everything!
Friend and fellow-author Tish Dace, who relocated to Bonaire, sent these photos of dolphins cavorting with divers in front of the Divi Flamingo Hotel. I was diving at the Divi a week earlier, but the dolphins were not. Oh well! Timing is everything.

Fund A Scholarship
Woman Divers Hall of Fame member Julianne (Julz) Ziefle let me know about their program to fund scholarships through sales of a new cookbook (not seafood),
including recipes and dive stories.
The book is in a ring-binder format so new recipes and stories can easily be added.
On a personal note, I hope they add some tasty lionfish dishes.
Contributors include famous divers such as Michelle Hall, Stan Waterman, Zale Parry, Leslie Leaney, and others.
