Tyke the elephant kills trainer8/21/2023 ![]() ![]() The simplest way to calculate your aiming point, on almost any animal you may be called upon to kill, is to draw two imaginary lines up across the head, linking an eye to the opposite ear (left eye to right ear, etc.) and X marks the spot. But, the bullet must be placed precisely and even a large bull has a brain about half the size of a human, protected by a tough skull. When you can get close enough, and the target is somewhat stationary, a 9mm or larger handgun bullet will reliably penetrate into the cranial vault of any animal up to the size of domestic cattle, causing instant incapacitation and a quick death. A single bullet would have produced the same final result and saved the deer 45 minutes of needless pain.Īmmo, Weapons, and Aiming Points The average Police sidearm is a rather poor animal killer except when you can hit the brain or upper spine. Even then, the vet had to repeatedly dart the deer with about triple the normal-deadly dose of drugs. So, we called a vet and waited 45 minutes while the buck suffered - one horn was broken and dangling and a huge shard of glass had penetrated his chest cavity. ![]() We blood-trailed the buck to the downtown area, where the Chief of Police wouldn’t let me shoot the suffering beast because “it would look bad” to the gathering crowd. I once responded to a burglar alarm which turned out to be a set of commercial widows broken by a buck deer crashing through. Country folks rarely have the time or spare cash to call a vet for the task. If you think that, you grew up in the city. I hear some of you whining that these animals should put down by a veterinarian’s needle. Whether you must kill a small animal like a cat or dog or beasts as large as horses or cattle, you owe the creature as quick and humane a death as possible. I removed the collars and tags and turned the carcasses over to the landfill guy - justice was done. When it was all over, my AR-15 had two more bad canines to its credit. A short way along the Doberman’s escape route was the county landfill, where I found the dozer operator who confirmed the escaping dogs were still in the area. The caretaker there described the Dobermans who had knocked down the lady and injured her lap dog. On one call, I arrived to find that a blind lady had been attacked at her rural home by a pair of Doberman pinschers. I am an unabashed dog lover, but bad dogs simply cannot be tolerated. ![]() Killing dangerous or nuisance animals is never enjoyable work, but in some cases there is a degree of satisfaction involved. Having never personally shot an elephant, I can only claim the ability to have done a better, more humane job because I have killed dozens of other creatures, large and small, both as a hunter and a police officer. The unfortunate incident was caught on video and the elephant reportedly took two hours to finally bleed to death. The elephant story involved one named Tyke, who in 1994 killed her trainer and gored a handler before the Honolulu police opened fire - a total of 86 rounds according to one report. Scanning the Internet will generate many articles of officers forced to kill creatures ranging from cattle to tigers to a rampaging circus elephant. The scope of that tragedy was staggering, but the killing of large and/or dangerous animals is a regular occurrence for cops. The Noah’s Ark Massacre This topic came from a recent conversation with Police1 Senior Editor Doug Wyllie when I commented on the recent “ Noah’s Ark Massacre” of loose zoo animals in Ohio. Nearly 50 animals killed after Ohio zoo escape

Muscular silverback gorilla8/21/2023 When it comes to claws, jaguars have a clear advantage. When they are approaching their target, jaguars retract their claws to make themselves silent. They use them for traction, gripping prey, climbing, and scent marking. Jaguars have sharp and retractable that can grow up to 2 inches long. They developed fingers they use for object manipulation. ![]() As their grasping hands evolved, claws disappeared. Gorillas do not have claws but fingernails and toenails they use for opening, scraping, cleaning, and scratching. Jaguars love to kill their prey by sinking their canine teeth into the skull.ĭespite having a lower bite power, jaguar teeth are more devastating and give them an advantage over gorillas in this regard. Jaguar teeth are so powerful that they can bite through the thick scales of crocodilians and the hard shells of turtles. Their canines are rounded at the front, sharp at the back, and can grow around 1.6 inches. Jaguars have 32 teeth, 4 of which are long, pointed canine teeth they use to kill their prey. Strong canines and incisors help cut, rip, and tear tree bark. Those fang-like teeth help defend themselves against external threats, as well as fend off other male gorillas competing for dominance. 4 of those are long and razor-sharp canines that can grow up to 2 inches. Gorillas have the advantage over jaguars when it comes to jaw strength and bite power. If they were to have the same weight as tigers or lions, jaguars would have a significantly higher bite force than those two.Īs a comparison, the average strength of a human bite is 162 PSI. Jaguars have slightly stronger jaw muscles than other cats and slightly shorter jaws – this increases the leverage for biting. However, the jaguar has the strongest bite of any big cat relative to its size. Jaguars are smaller animals than gorillas and have a bite power of around 730 PSI. Its strong jaw muscles can produce a biting force of 1,300 pounds per square inch (PSI). Surprisingly enough, a gorilla has one of the strongest bites in the world. ![]() Gorillas and jaguars are both fast animals and good climbers, but jaguars have the advantage as they have faster movements, excellent agility, and better swimming skills than gorillas. Jaguars can dash forward between 10 and 20 feet, are confident swimmers, and are pretty capable of climbing trees to hunt or to rest. The word ‘jaguar’ comes from the indigenous word ‘yaguar’, which means ‘he who kills with one leap’. Jaguars are renowned for their speed that can reach 50 mph in short bursts. Gorillas are excellent at climbing but very poor at jumping and swimming. They move around by knuckle-walking – they put their weight on the knuckles, rather than on palms. Not the fastest in the animal world, but still decent. Gorillas run on all fours and can reach speeds of up to 25 mph. ![]() When it comes to sheer size, gorillas have an advantage over jaguars as they are 2 times bigger. The largest jaguar ever recorded was a male that weighed 328 lbs. Adult males can reach an overall length of more than 7 feet and can weigh anywhere from 150 to 200 pounds. ![]() Jaguars are the largest cat species after tigers and lions, and the largest cats in the Americas. The biggest gorilla ever was an eastern lowland one that weighed massive 860 pounds. The largest gorilla species is the eastern lowland gorilla. They reach 5 ft when on all 4, 6 ft when they get up on their hind legs, and weigh between 300 and 500 lbs. Gorillas are the largest living primates. We will compare the sizes between a gorilla and a jaguar, their agility and movement capabilities, their bite power, jaw strength, and defensive attributes. To determine the winner of this duel, we will take into consideration several physical factors. Physical Comparison Of A Gorilla And A Jaguar – Excellent vision (6 x better night vision than humans) Before we start, who do you see winning this duel? Gorilla Vs Jaguar – A Quick Overview Still, let’s use the available information and analyze what would happen if a full-grown and healthy jaguar was to clash with a fully grown healthy Silverback gorilla. Unless captive animals are placed together, these two can’t stumble upon one another. Sadly, these two animals can’t meet in the wild, as gorillas live in Africa, while jaguars live in Central and South America. Gorillas are huge and muscular jaguars are sleek and bloodthirsty.Īnd looking at these two beasts, it’s not hard to wonder who would win in a fight if a gorilla and a jaguar assaulted one another. Gorillas and jaguars are some of the feistiest animals that exist today.

Play pinochle free8/21/2023 It’s also important to be aware of what the other players are bidding, so you can make sure you’re not bidding too much or too little. If you have a weak hand, you’ll want to bid less in order to minimize your losses. If you have a strong hand, you’ll want to bid more in order to win the bidding war and get more points. Knowing when to bid and raise is also key to playing Pinochle like a pro. There are also runs, which are three or more consecutive cards of the same suit, and pairs, which are two cards of the same rank. Some of the most common card combinations are melds, which are three or more cards of the same rank, and flushes, which are three or more cards of the same suit. There are a lot of them, so it’s important to learn them all and be able to recognize them when they come up in play. One of the most important things to know about playing Pinochle like a pro is understanding all the different card combinations and their values. There are a lot of ways to play Pinochle like a professional, but some general tips include learning all the different card combinations and their values, knowing when to bid and raise, and being able to keep track of all the cards in play. After both teams have scored, a new round starts.How do you play Pinochle like a professional? If the team who won the bid for that round didn’t score more points than they bid, they subtract their bid from their score for that round. Once all the cards have been played, each team adds up the total number of points they won from their melds and collected tricks. Additionally, the player who wins the final tricks scores 1 extra point. Each ace, 10, and king a player wins in a trick is worth 1 point. However, if any players play a card in the trump suit, the highest card in that suit wins. The player who played the highest card in the initial suit that was played wins the trick and collects the cards. Play continues around the table until each player has played a card. If they don’t, they can play any card in their hand. Then, the player to their left must play a card in that suit if they have one. After players score their melds, the winner of the bid plays one card from their hand in the middle of the playing area. Two runs are worth 150 points, 8 aces are worth 100 points, 8 Kings are worth 80 points, 8 queens are worth 60 points, 8 jacks are worth 40 points, and 2 Pinochles are worth 30 points. If players have 2 of any meld, the point values for those melds increase. A 9 in the trump suit scores 1 point, an ace in each suit is worth 10 points, a king in each suit is worth 8 points, a queen in each suit is worth 6 points, and a jack in each suit is worth 4 points, and a queen of spades paired with a jack of diamonds is a Pinochle and worth 4 points. A Pinochle pack consists of: A (high), 10, K, Q, J, 9 (low) in each of the four suits, with two of each card. The goal is to win 'tricks', so as to score the value of cards taken in on tricks and to meld certain combinations of cards having values in points. A king and queen of the same suit is called a marriage and is worth 2 points, unless the king and queen are in the trump suit, in which case the marriage is worth 4 points. In order to play Pinochle, a 48-card Pinochle pack is used. An ace, 10, king, queen, and jack in the trump suit is a run and scores 15 points. Points are scored by forming melds with the cards, and different melds are worth different point values. ![]() Now players score the cards in their hands. Then, that player’s teammate passes them three cards from their hand, and they pass three cards back to their teammate. ![]() Whoever made the highest bid gets to choose which suit is trump for that round. It has gained around 105507 installs so far, with an average rating of 4.0 out of 5 in the play store. This continues around the table until every player except for one passes. Pinochle (Free, no Ads) is an Android Card app developed by Spiele-Palast GmbH and published on the Google play store. Then, the player to their left can either bid higher or pass. If they decide to bid, they must bid at least 20 points. Then, the player to the left of the dealer can bid by saying how many points they think they can win based on their hand, or they can pass to the next player. The dealer deals each player 12 cards in sets of 3. Teammates sit across from one another, and one player deals first, with the deal moving clockwise each round. The game consists of a repeating sequence of bidding (for the right to name the trump suit and. Alternatively, you can make your own by combining all of the 9s through aces cards from two standard decks of cards. Pinochle is a card game played with a 48- or 80-card deck of 9s, 10s, jacks, queens, kings and aces. To play Pinochle, you’ll need a special Pinochle card deck. ![]() The goal of the game is to be the first team to score 150 points. Pinochle is a fun card game played with two teams of two.

The whisperer second life8/21/2023 ![]() En realidad, su título original es “Il suggeritore”, que es el apuntador que recuerda a los actores y actrices de teatro las palabras o frases que olvidan, aunque esta profesión haya caído en desuso. “Lobos” en 2009 y “El susurrador” en 2019, lo que parece que ha llevado a muchos lectores a la confusión, y a leerla dos veces. Novela de mucho éxito de Donato Carrisi, publicada dos veces con diferentes títulos. ![]() Having said that, I've given it two stars as it's so basically written you can finish it within a couple of days, and at least it's not written by Ben Elton. Someone really should tell him that plot and character are rather more important to quality than the quantity of gore. Meanwhile, the plot lurches on from gruesome murder scene to gruesome murder scene, the author obviously having fun trying to make each murder more disgusting than the last. Given that the author is so poor at characterisation, you have to wonder why there are so many of them - a whole host of hopeless serial killer hunters who are all exactly the same and add nothing to the story. Goran Gavila (remembered that one!) is apparently a man of insight and mysterious thoughts, but again, apart from constantly being reminded of his unusual eyes you'd never realise that. Strange, because she acts and talks exactly like everyone else in the book. The main female character (sorry, can't remember her name) apparently is deeply flawed and unable to relate to people. We keep getting told that the characters are flawed and interesting, but without constantly getting told there's no way you would ever realise that. Yay - it's another thriller where the author thinks that the more gruesome it is, the more deserving of our attention! Another thriller where the characters are supposedly interesting, but instead have all the depth of a pancake! This book is absolute tripe: the story is nonsensical, highly reliant on coincidence, full of holes - and that's even before the psychic nun (I wish I was joking) gets involved. THE WHISPERER, as sensational a bestseller in Europe as the Stieg Larsson novels, is that rare creation: a thought-provoking, intelligent thriller that is also utterly unputdownable. Is it all coincidence? Or is a copycat criminal at work? Obsessed with a case that becomes more tangled and intense as they unravel the layers of evil, Gavila and Vasquez find that their lives are increasingly in each other's hands. Vasquez and Gavila begin to wonder if they've been brought in to take the fall in a near-hopeless case. The evidence in the case of the second missing child points in a vastly different direction, creating more questions than it answers. They're confident they've got the right suspect in their sights until they discover no link between him and any of the kidnappings except the first. Lead investigators Mila Vasquez, a celebrated profiler, and Goran Gavila, an eerily prescient criminologist, dive into the case. Worse still, the girls' bodies, alive or dead, are nowhere to be found. Five of them appear to belong to missing girls between the ages of eight and eighteen. Six severed arms are discovered, arranged in a mysterious circle and buried in a clearing in the woods. A gripping literary thriller and smash bestseller that has taken Italy, France, Germany and the UK by storm.

Then, after the stock market had closed, Toshiba said that it would take a $6.3 billion hit related to Westinghouse's acquisition in December of Stone & Webster, a nuclear construction business, from Chicago Bridge & Iron in December.

Firewatch wikia8/20/2023 ![]() Quick question: who the fuck buys a story-based experience on Early Access, getting the whole thing spoiled for you while it's still crap? "Um, it's about supporting creators, Yahtzee, you wouldn't understand. Now excuse me while I eat this handful of dry spaghetti!"įirewatch follows the adventures of Henry, a stubby Zack Galifianakis lookalike who takes a job as a lookout at a national park in order to escape from the difficulties of his life and forms a verbal relationship with his supervisor as a mysterious intrigue develops. Meanwhile, the premise behind Layers of Fear is "Isn't a shame Silent Hills got canceled?" It's essentially the playable teaser for Silent Hills stretched out to an entire house, not just two rooms of it. You're a tortured artist, alone in your spooky mansion, and it's swiftly hinted there was a wife and child at some point. So yeah, you probably murdered them or ate them or strapped them to the couch and forced them to watched televised snooker until they lost the ability to reason, and that's why you're now haunted by visions of men wearing very tacky waistcoats. So if we're rewarding points, I'll give the first impression prize to Firewatch, because it's not immediately clear what it's building up to, if you're in for horror or drama or just two middle-aged hairy outdoors people sexting each other all summer whereas Layers of Fear immediately looks like we've got on the Haunted Mansion Ride at Disneyland. Wouldn't be much of a walking simulator without it. We're saving the sitting-on-the-couch simulator for when the average BMI goes up again. So Henry's task is to wander around the park completing the objectives that his boss gives him, which range from, "go to a place and look at a thing", to, "look to a place and go to a thing". But that's only if you're one of those tiresome squares who see life as nothing more than a to-do list. You can also explore the park freely and look for secret things, which is the to-do list for cool people. The main purpose of walking in Layers of Fear is to bum around the room inspecting the furniture until something spooky happens, after which, you leave the room by the door you came in, except now it leads to a different room because illogical architecture is spooky. Well, before it's happened ninety bloody times, anyway, and then it just becomes the new logic. And it would've been spookier if the doors went back to being sensible, 'cause then I would suspect they were up to something. Still I did notice that our protagonist walks with a limp, which was a neat little background storytelling detail, but then I wondered why I was noticing something like that, and concluded it was because I'd explored three hundred identical drawing rooms and was more bored than a lesbian at a sausage festival.ģ: (What Grudgingly Passes for) Gameplay īoth Layers of Fire and Fearwatch make the usual halfhearted burbling sound that walking simulators make for want of a challenge, that being, "find all the documents", the kind of challenge one can enjoy at a fraction of the cost by spending the afternoon tidying your home office. Firewatch spices it up with, "find all the conversations," as you eagerly radio in to report every bit of scenery and discarded rubber johnny.

Play free online farm mania 28/20/2023 ![]() ![]() Radical Rescue is simple, with a surprising layer of gameplay depth that makes a fun game something special.ĭr. Tasked with rescuing the rest of your fellow turtles, you’ll spend most of the game moving back and forth between an elaborate fortress to first rescue your friends (which is indeed quite radical), and then take down Cyber Shredder once and for all. Instead, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 3: Radical Rescue is more of a Metroidvania kind of thing. Radical Rescue isn’t the usual side-scrolling brawler, although playing as Michelangelo for a decent portion of the game, you’ll have plenty of enemies to fight. However, it was Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 3: Radical Rescue where the series took some interesting chances and produced one of the best TMNT games ever. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 3: Radical Rescue Radical RescueĪll of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles games are pretty fun to play. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 3: Radical Rescue Yes, you read that lifespan correctly, so let’s rank the best Game Boy games of all time and celebrate one of the most beloved handhelds of all time and a true game changer, doing our best to limit the amount of entries per franchise. Nintendo’s Game Boy destroyed them all, selling over 118 million units worldwide and lasting an unreal decade and change from 1989 to around 2003. Sega had their Game Gear (released less than a year later), Atari had the Lynx, and NEC even had the TurboExpress. Originally designed and developed by Satoru Okada and Gunpei Yokoi (two of Nintendo’s most important names and creators), the Game Boy was just one of many handheld systems released in this period. At the very least, Nintendo’s Game Boy changed an industry already experiencing a dramatic rise in cultural significance and popularity, and that’s worth keeping in mind when people discuss the importance of the Game Boy. Is it hyperbolic to say that the Game Boy changed the world? Maybe, but when we look at the best Game Boy games released across the shockingly long lifespan of this remarkable handheld machine, it’s easy to understand why it’s so highly regarded.
