6/30/2023 0 Comments Shoebill babyShoebill storks are solitary breeders and have territories measuring approximately 3 square kilometers. Shoebill storks form monogamous pairs for breeding. The toes are extremely long and completely divided with no webbing between them. The eyes are large and yellowish or grayish-white in color. The mandibles have sharp edges that aid in capturing and eating prey. The color of the bill is yellowish with blotchy dark spots. It is an enormous structure ending in a sharp, curved hook. The bill is the most prominent feature of shoebill storks and resembles a wooden shoe. A newly hatched shoebill stork is covered in silvery-grey silky down and juveniles are a slightly darker shade of grey than adults. On the back of the head is a small tuft of feathers that can erect in a crest. Adult breeding plumage does not differ from non-breeding plumage. The underparts are a lighter shade of grey. The primaries are black-tipped and secondaries have a greenish tint. The plumage is slaty blue-grey overall with a darker grey head. Males are larger than females and have longer bills. Large, somewhat frightful looking birds, shoebill storks stand 110 to 140 cm tall. This causes the fish living in the water to surface for air more often, increasing the likelihood a shoebill stork will successfully capture it. They are also found where there is poorly oxygenated water. When shoebill storks are in an area with deep water, a bed of floating vegetation is a requirement. They are often found in areas of flood plain interspersed with undisturbed papyrus and reedbeds. Shoebill storks inhabit freshwater swamps and extensive, dense marshes. This bird's range usually coincides with that of papyrus and lungfish. Smaller populations occupy eastern Zaire and Rwanda. The main populations are found in southern Sudan (mainly in the White Nile Sudd), the wetlands of northern Uganda and western Tanzania and the Bangweulu swamp of northeastern Zambia. Shoebill or whale-headed storks are endemic to Africa and inhabit the east-central part of the continent.

6/30/2023 0 Comments Las vegas fanboy expo 2022I know, I know… there are a ton of saber vendors out there, and indeed, I already own 1 from one of those other companies and 1 from Star Wars Galaxy’s Edge at Disneyland. Similarly, I purchased 2 lightsabers this weekend. ( Watch that interview over on our YouTube Channel when it drops shortly) Really grabbed us with something we hadn’t seen before, and while the market will likely eventually catch on to what he’s doing and ape it, right now, the novelty of it really sparked us, and we bought several pieces from him. I’ve got some video to of the vendor floor, along with one of the vendors who caught our eye this weekend. It takes something unusual or (better yet) unique to capture your attention as you walk the aisles, and when you find that thing, you can’t help but find yourself excited by the newness of that thing. There’s just too much content, especially in the face of vendors dealing in repetitive goods such as predictable prints or Funko Pops. Normally, when you attend a show with tens of thousands (or more) fans, the venue lends itself to being overwhelmed by the sheer magnitude of the vendor floors, and so you can walk the floor every day of the event and still notice things you missed previously. No, I want to talk about the unsung heroes of fandoms: vendors. What I want to talk about this weekend is not just the run-of-the-mill celebrity rundown or cosplay fashion show. The celebrity guest list, while not spectacular in a Salt Lake/New York/City-which-will-not-be-named, A-list kind of way, is diverse in terms of fandoms and media types, including both standalone and “reunion” guests.īut I’ve discussed all this in previous coverage. It is properly sized, with a “full” vendor floor and celebrity signing area. To be clear, FBE is not too big for its venue. I don’t know how it stacks up against the other Fanboy Expos throughout the country, but this is Las Vegas, so I was surprised by this fact. This weekend has been a pleasant reminder that not all events have to be go-go-go, wall-to-wall action for the entire duration of their operating hours.įanboy Expo, Las Vegas, is, by any definition, a small event. I may have previously commented on smaller pop-culture events, but normally, after attending large events, like my home event in Salt Lake City ( FanX), and (now) Fan Expo Denver, Phoenix Fan Fusion, C2E2 in Chicago, etc., one becomes accustomed to massive floor space, shoulder to shoulder crowds, and a consistent general level of activity. Okay, kids, let’s wrap-up the weekend that was Fanboy Expo Las Vegas… 6/30/2023 0 Comments Charles barkley impressionBest NBA Betting Apps – Top Betting Apps for NBA Ranked & Reviewed 2023.Best NBA Betting Sites – Discover our List of The Best Sites to Bet on NBA Games.Though it might be a shocking statement to hear from the NBA All Star, George has admitted that he doesn’t consider himself “the guy” anymore and has understood his role as the number two or possibly three guy at the age of 33.

6/30/2023 0 Comments Dustforce dx gamepadPlayers can act as the janitors, cleaning up filth, while the other players lay down filth on clean patches of the level. ĭustforce includes a four-player local multiplayer mode including variants such as Survival and King of the Hill modes, where players scale the level and fight against other players towards victory. The PlayStation 3 version include the ability to save and share level replays to YouTube, while the PC, Vita, and Xbox 360 versions includes the ability to save replays locally. Player replays are stored online with the leaderboards, allowing other players to review how top scorers were able to complete various levels. The combo meter only stays active for a short period of time, but resets for each patch cleaned up thus by hitting many patches in a row quickly, the player can build up the combo multiplier and drastically increase their score. The player scores a fixed number of points for every patch of filth that is cleaned up multiplied by their current combo meter, and increases their current combo meter by 1. The player is also rated on a scoring system and ranked on a global leaderboard. Completing a level with an "S" grade in both finesse and completion provides the player with one of three colored keys to unlock certain levels in the overworld. The ratings, evaluated separately, are based on a letter-grade scale, with "D" through "A" reflecting increasingly better performances, and an "S" grade, representing a perfect combo, or full completion. Finesse is determined by the combo meter, which is reset if the player takes a hit or proceeds too slowly, and completion is determined by the amount of debris and enemies cleaned. Upon completing a level, the player is ranked based on "finesse" and completion. Should the character run into any hazards such as pits or spikes on the level, the player will have to resume the run from a previous checkpoint. The end goal of a level typically requires reaching a final area and defeating foes waiting there. The player can also initiate regular and super-attacks against filth-covered creatures to restore them to normal. Along the way, the character will automatically sweep up any debris on the walls or floors. Within the level, the player must maneuver their character to the end goal using acrobatic tricks such as double jumps, wall jumps, mid-air dashes, and clinging to the ceiling. Īfter the player selects a level, they pick one of the four Dustforce members, who all share the same moves but have slightly different statistics, such as jumping height. An overworld provides access to more than fifty levels, though about half are initially locked to the player. It is set in a world where filth has corrupted the creatures that live in the area the four-member Dustforce team of janitors aims to clean up the mess and restore the world. Dustforce is a platform game that has been compared to games such as Super Meat Boy and N+, where fast-response timed actions are considered necessary to complete the game. 6/29/2023 0 Comments Does malwarebytes work with mcafeeIt works well on Android, iOS, Mac, windows, etc. The protection level of McAfee is decent enough for the users, and the simple software interface is also very user-friendly.

He told the group how much he loved his job and all the great people he got to meet in his line of work. He put it best in ‘Try and Catch Me’ when he was put on the spot by Mitchel, the brilliant mystery writer at her luncheon in an attempt to trip him up. I love Columbo because unlike his other TV detectives, he is not your typical jaded, cynical, anti-social brilliant detective but rather a caring, enthusiastic, perceptive and very skilled investigator. They were excellent stories, cool mysteries and, of course, featured them man himself, one of the all-time best TV detectives. Years ago NetFlix featured a ton of Columbo episodes and I would watch them over and over when I wanted something to fall asleep to that wasn’t riddled with explosions, gunfire and people yelling.
