![]() ![]() Mississippi kites are elegant raptors and excellent aeronauts. By now, the youngster is out and free-flying. The juvenile was nearly adult-sized and active, often jumping about the nest and flapping its wings. I visited this nest July 26 and spent several hours photographing the birds. Finally, a nest was located this summer and, a few weeks ago, one chick hatched. ![]() ![]() Summering birds have since appeared in southern Ohio haunts from Marietta to Portsmouth, and at least some of them must be nesting.Ī few years ago, Mississippi kites turned up near Chillicothe, and they’ve been back every year since. More nesting sites were found in Hocking County, and likely breeding reports came from Athens County. Records increased steadily through the years, and by the 2000s birds were being reported almost every year.Īs it turns out, the 2007 Hocking County kite nest was the vanguard of a small tide of kites. Join the conversation at /columbusdispatch and connect with us on Twitter first confirmed record of a Mississippi kite dates only to 1978, when a bird was seen passing over Green Lawn Cemetery in Columbus. The still downy youngster was obviously raised locally - the first documented Ohio nesting on record. The begging youngster sat atop tall snags and was stuffed with cicadas and dragonflies by its parents. Attempts to find it were unsuccessful, but in late summer a juvenile kite appeared. The kites Perkins saw at the golf course did linger, and became so reliable that people could visit and expect to see the birds.Īs the summer went on, it became clear that the flyweight raptors had a nest nearby. If you weren’t there when the kite appeared, you missed it. Mississippi kites were then considered rare vagrants to Ohio, and they didn’t usually stick around. He was there to play a round of golf, and scored an exceptional birdie. Birder Rick Perkins had discovered Mississippi kites frequenting a Hocking County golf course. The summer of 2007 brought exciting news to Ohio’s bird watchers. ![]()

"Avionics is used all over the place, not just flying things," Wright said, pointing to a drone his students were working on, "to the extent that the software we're using in that drone over there is almost the same software being used in submersibles as well." The controller in Wright's classroom at UWE, where students build drones. It is also unclear if OceanGate, which coordinates such expeditions, was still using the video game controller on the submersible for the recent trip, during which Rush was the operator. The missing submersible is different from other deep-sea vessels in that it is the only five-person sub in the world that can reach Titanic depths - approximately 13,000 feet, nearly 2.5 miles below the ocean's surface. It's unclear if the device, which resembles the widely available Logitech F710 wireless gamepad, had been modified or customized. In 2022, when CBS News correspondent David Pogue took a trip inside OceanGate's one-of-a-kind carbon-fiber submersible, Stockton Rush, CEO of OceanGate, held up the handheld device, saying, "We run the whole thing with this game controller." The video game controller OceanGate CEO Stockton Rush said runs their submersible. The submersible, called the Titan, is controlled by what the company's CEO referred to as a video game controller – a fact that raised questions about the vitality of the sub and viability of its hardware. A desperate search is on after a submersible on a deep sea expedition to the Titanic wreckage went missing with five people on board this week. ![]() ![]() ![]() It’s probably best to see that skin is not left on the face and eyes. Small patches of skin that remain adhered to the snake are not expected to have any deleterious effect and it is at the option of the keeper to arrange for the removal. When a snake incompletely sheds, and a portion of the skin is left adhered to the snake, the snake should be soaked in shallow water or slightly-soapy water for several hours, after which the skin typically comes off very easily. Vivariums & water bowls should be cleaned regularly as required with a reptile specific disinfectant.Ĭommon Boa Constrictors generally have few problems shedding their skin. As with all animals their temperament is variable between individuals but generally good if they are not made to feel stressed or threatened. Do not handle them for two days after they have fed if possible.īoas are generally well natured, easy to handle snakes that will move in an inquisitive manner without being over active & uncontrollable. For their first meals, many newborns will begin feeding on one thawed large fuzzy mouse or pink rat once weekly. Snakes that are distended from too-large meals should not be handled. One appropriately-sized rodent per week is an adequate feeding schedule for young Boas with adults only requiring only one appropriately sized meal once every two weeks.Īn “appropriate-sized” meal is one that makes just a slight lump inside the snake. Some specimens may eat the food item left in their cages, but some may prefer being offered food using forceps. In captivity, young Boas readily eat frozen/thawed mice or rats. The humidity should therefore be increased at this time to prevent any issues. However if the humidity levels are too low Boas may experience difficulty when shedding their skin. Boas may sit in their water bowls if they are stressed or insecure in their cages (they are “hiding” in their water bowl) or if they are plagued by an infestation of snake mites.īoas are relatively tolerant of changes in humidity & do not require it to be controlled within a narrow band as with many other humidity sensitive snakes. Common Boa Constrictors are rarely observed to sit in their water bowls in conditions of normal health and security. ![]() This will allow the individual to thermoregulate, choosing the temperature that best suits at any given time.Ĭlean water should be available in a glass or ceramic water bowl at all times. It is good maintenance practice to provide a warmer-than ambient basking spot in the 33-34 ✬ range (92-93 ✯). It is recommended to provide a natural light pattern that mimics normal daytime according to the season.Īs a general starting point, common Boa Constrictors seem to do best if kept in the 27-28 ✬ range (82-83 ✯). It has been our experience and observation that this species does extremely well on a thick layer of aspen bedding due to the fact that is easy to maintain at a satisfactory level of sanitation. By four to six years of age, some adult females will require an enclosure with at least 3-3.5 square meters (10-12 square feet) of floor space.Īppropriately sized hide boxes should be provided at both ends of the vivarium so that the Boa does not have to choose between thermal comfort & security. Given space and lots of food, Boas grow very quickly to 1.5 and 1.8 meters (5 and 6 feet) in length, and then their rate of growth begins to slow. Young adults should be given 0.6-1.2 square meters (2-4 square feet) of floor space. Newborn Boas can be housed in an enclosure with about 250 sq/cm of floor space until they are about six months of age. Vivariums or plastic storage boxes, can be satisfactorily used to maintain them. Common Boa Constrictors require a secure well-ventilated cage. ![]() ![]() I think we can all agree that, to some extent, all vigilante, Taken-esque revenge films are morally irresponsible on some level. Image via IndieWire Peppermint‘s Form of Morality is Completely Wrong ![]() I would’ve been ready to take that journey to exhaustion with her if she was in a better movie. By the end of the movie, she is physically and mentally exhausted. Peppermint is such a great reminder of her talents as a performer. We’ve come to a time where an entire generation of people only knows her from commercials. Honestly, I want more from Jennifer Garner in general. Her reactions to getting hit are so great that it makes it that much better when she actually lands a punch. Not only do you believe in every punch she throws, but she adds a certain vulnerability to the action that makes her believable as an actual human, not just an action movie superhero that is impervious to everything from bullets to punches to general fatigue. Garner is one of the more convincing action heroines of recent memory. Well, her character is very poorly written, but she’s not the one to blame for that. Jennifer Garner got freakin’ jacked for this movie! Given all the problems that Peppermint has (which we will certainly get to), Jennifer Garner isn’t one of them. Image via Bustle We Need More Badass Roles from Jennifer Garner It’s time for her to become a commanding presence in film once more, don’t you think? Maybe it was Daredevil and Elektra that did her in on that front (it probably was), but it is nice to see Garner go back to her roots in a sense. I don’t blame anyone for doing so, but we forget that most of her early work was in action movies. She was even in Love, Simonearlier this year as a mom! Ever since Juno, whether it was on her own volition or not, Garner has been typecast as a movie mom. If you’re a younger movie fan (or are more of a casual viewer), odds are you would only know Jennifer Garner as your movie mom…or the nice lady from the Capital One commercials. ![]() As law enforcement quickly finds out, it’s Riley, and she’s been training…and she’s hungry for the justice she was denied.

More specifically, put a well-known actor in the lead role as they seek revenge against villains that are obviously evil with no room for interpretation.

On the rare occasion that we run across the real ones, we buy them – whatever the cost. They’re very hard to get, and I’ve been playing with them my entire life. “I’m looking at about five of them right now in front of me on the desk at the studio! I guard these like they’re $5,000 bills. There’s a specific guitar pick that you’ve used solely throughout your career. But I pick it up these days and I think, ‘I wonder why I thought it was so difficult to play? It plays really good.’ So lately, I’ve been loving the thing.” I used to think of it as such a beast that was so difficult to play. “I sit down with it now, and all of a sudden it feels like a ‘new’ guitar. I stopped using it for a few reasons, but one of the reasons was that it was really causing me back problems. “These days when I play it, I’m sitting down in a chair and not breaking my back, because it’s the heaviest guitar I’ve ever owned in my life. You mentioned that one of the guitars you used on Shades was the Fender Strat Elite, which you used on the early King’s X albums. If you hear a lead tone that is extra thick, it’s probably through the RotoSIM.” So, I use that to get a really thick lead tone. “With a RotoSIM, it comes with instructions where you can open it up and modify it yourself. I did occasionally go through a couple of things, but I don’t even remember what most of them were called. ![]() “I didn’t really use a lot of pedals on this. Most of it is just straight in to my Lab Series L5 and Orange CR120 I didn’t really use a lot of pedals on Shades. “The two amps I used mostly were a Lab Series L5 – like I used to use – in combination with an Orange CR120, to get a thicker, different kind of vibe. I used one of my Guilfords, a Gibson Les Paul Special, a Goldtop Les Paul Standard, my original Fender Stratocaster Elite, and probably five other Strats that have different tones. Just getting through things and ending up at the end okay.” “And while it's getting there, I wanted it to be introspective about life and all kinds of stuff – difficult things and good things. ![]() And I wanted it to have a slow build that takes a long time to get there. “I knew One Drop of Water felt ‘epic’ – like, I really needed to produce it to where, at the end, it’s a lot of everything: a lot of guitar, a lot of vocals. “That’s one of those that I wrote and was thinking, ‘Man, where is this going?’ and, ‘I don’t think this is going to be on the record!’ It’s very different to any other song on the record. The song One Drop of Water is a particular standout. I actually enjoy the ‘finding’, and experimenting until something feels right.” “To me, none of that is super-difficult, but I have to have patience to find certain things. I think in terms of everything that’s going down. And because I am doing bass, drums, vocals and everything else, I don’t just think in terms of guitar when that is happening. “And to me, it was always about trying to capture ‘feel’ – trying to find what worked at certain spots in each song. “I didn’t feel a lot of, ‘This is hard to do.’ For me, it was more, ‘How do I express this on guitar? How do I express this emotion at this place of the song on guitar?’ It wasn't normally anything that had to do with difficulty or a technical aspect – but just, ‘Does it feel right?’ Did any of the material on Shades prove challenging? ![]() ![]() Adds all publications in Apple News+, including newspapers, to the catalog at the top of the News+ feed.Makes downloaded issues available in the My Magazines section of Apple News+, both online and offline.Improves compatibility of Xsan clients when accessing volumes that use 1K or larger LUN sector sizes. ![]()
