His name is Lonesome George, and he is believed to be the last of his subspecies of giant tortoise found only on the Galápagos island of Pinta.
Researchers keep George with two female giant tortoises in hopes that he will pass on some of his genes even if this would be to a hybrid offspring.
George's diet and health are monitored to ensure there are no deficiencies that would cause him to be infertile.

 Goebel. City of Santa Barbara
The Goebels did not inform her that any of the water from the main line had run into the house, and she saw no evidence of water intrusion from the break in the main line.
The Goebels argue that evidence about the damage caused by the 1990 break was admissible to prove the existence of a dangerous condition because it would have demonstrated that the risk created by the water main was a significant one.
The Goebels contend the award of expert fees was unauthorized because section 998 does not apply to eminent domain proceedings and their claim for inverse condemnation was a form of eminent domain.

 BBC - h2g2 - Lonesome George
George was born on the small island of Pinta, in the north of the Galapagos archipelago sometime in the 1920/30s.
George was named after the US actor George Goebel, who had coined the phrase, 'Lonesome George', in a television interview.
So George remains the last of his kind, zoos have even offered a $10,000 reward for a female Pinta tortoise; the money so far has yet to be claimed.

Before Lonesome George was found, the last reported sighting of tortoises on Pinta was in 1906, when the island was visited by the Californian Academy of Sciences.
The aim was to maintain George's sexual activity for the possibility that a Pinta female was found, or at least back crossing to create as close an offspring as possible to the Pinta characteristics.
George's diet is being investigated to ensure there is no deficiency that could be causing his failure to reproduce.

George soon gained in confidence as he realized that his talent could match that of regulars such as Gene Autry and Red Foley.
The relaxed atmosphere of the show suited George and, by the time he was 19, he would introduce some small-talk between songs which would expand into mini comedy routines.

“George Gobel (born George Goebel in Chicago on 20 May 1920) was a child singing star on the radio who became a major TV success in the USA in the 1950s with his easy-going comedy style.
His method was to look at life from the point of view of a somewhat bewildered, henpecked little man, and his catchphrase 'Well I'll be a dirty bird' was famous all across the States.
I think I read somewhere that The George Goebel Show was one of those that were not recorded or the recordings were destroyed or lost.

The small island of Pinta is located in the North of the Galapagos archipelago.
This is theoretically possible, but practically very difficult, and the technology for cloning of tortoises has not yet been developed.
If we can find a mate for Lonesome George, we'll be a long ways towards restoring the ecology of one of the most fascinating Galapagos Islands.

Goebel, but above all because I have come to the conclusion that asking these particular questions — and citing the same assertions over and over again — amounts to asking the wrong questions.
Goebel, I want to take as a point of departure page 11 of my article on Loulié, American Recorder, December 1992.
There I describe how to form the French vowel U: the tongue is firmly behind the lower front teeth, the mouth is pursed as if to blow out a candle — and if you try to say "eee" (as in the exclamation "Eeek!"), a French "pointed" U comes out.

 George Carlin Responds to Indecency Uproar   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
LOS ANGELES - George Carlin (news) famously dissected "The Seven Words You Can't Say on Television" as a way to explore what everyone was so uptight about.
Thirty-two years later the same debate is still raging, now fueled by Janet Jackson (news)'s Super Bowl flash, the suspension of Howard Stern's raunchy radio show from six stations and new House legislation that would raise a performer's indecency fine from $11,000 to $500,000.
George Carlin thinks of himself in all seriousness as a sagacious philosopher.

The battle of the socialist salesmen shook down to a head to head competition between SP National Organizer George Goebel and an unknown young man from San Francisco named Thomas J. Mooney—this well prior to the latter’s de facto martyrdom as America’s most famous class-war prisoner in 1916.
A conference of the two organizations and NEC member George Goebel was held in Chicago on Oct. 29, 1910 to discuss possible obstacles to the ZSP’s joining the Socialist Party.
Chief among ZSP concerns was the prospect of an excessive rate of dues (it needing to support its own official organ and propaganda efforts) as well as to an overly complex set of requirements for payment of dues to state and county organizations.

He seems to have been persuaded by Hitler’s propagandist George Goebel’s infamous statement that “a lie told often enough eventually becomes the truth.” Such a dabbling in practical politics by a political scientist underscores the fact that most practitioners of that discipline know so little about practical politics in the information age.
According to Feaver’s advice, what George Bush needed was to emphasize to the American public opinion that he, indeed, has a victory plan for Iraq.
