Experience with Dr Jake Laun USF
2023.06.02 06:30 PurbleDragon Experience with Dr Jake Laun USF
Since I couldn't find any information on Jake Laun at University of South Florida in Tampa and I am 6 weeks post op I'm going to review the entire process.
I had my consult in December of 2022 and Dr Laun seemed nice enough and answered my questions. He did seem in a hurry to get out of there though and I forgot to ask about seeing a portfolio. There is nothing online. I did ask him if the letter from Planned Parenthood would be sufficient and he said it was. However, when the scheduler messaged me on the online portal to book an appointment (that is the only way to contact anyone at the office), the information she sent me said that I would need two separate letters from two separate psychiatrists and medical doctors were not sufficient. When I asked for clarification because of what the surgeon told me, she sent it again with that part underlined and generally avoided answering any questions I had. During the entire process, I had a hard time getting responses from anyone.
In January I finally got the letters and booked my surgery for April 2023. I messaged and called the hospital several times to try and get an estimate and every time I was told that I would get more information closer to the date. I didn't get any kind of straight answer form them until 2 days before my surgery when they called and asked for $1000 up front. Due before surgery that no one told me about before they billed insurance. And now I've gotten 3 separate bills (including the one for anesthesia, which I expected).
I also didn't see or speak to my surgeon at any point since the initial consult. There was no pre op appointment and no communication from the hospital until literally the week of surgery. Every person I managed to get on the phone (very difficult) or messaged on the mychart thing seemed very annoyed that I was trying to get information about the surgery I was supposed to have.
The office is also only open on Wednesdays and is 2 hours away from me. My surgery was on a Friday and my original post op was the following Wednesday. I messaged the office to find out what the fluid levels were supposed to be (because they didn't give me that information) in order to get the drains removed and I was a little over (4 days post op). My appointment had to be rescheduled to the *following* Wednesday, meaning I had to keep the drains in for 12 days. I had my 6 week post op appointment yesterday, woke up early and drove 2 hours to speak to a resident for 5 minutes and drive 2 hours home. I haven't seen the surgeon except for 2 minutes on the day of surgery since the consult in December.
Conclusion: Unless you literally have no other choice, go elsewhere. My results look good but the entire experience has been frustrating and no one attached to the hospital was helpful in any way, shape, form, or fashion

2023.06.02 02:48 hot-ta-molly Where should I live?
Background: I work as an RN and also have rental property in middle TN, USA. I used to travel nurse, but now want to plant roots.
I would like to move outside of TN, but still be semi close to it (within 5-6 hour drive). I want to be close enough to the ocean to make a day trip out of it (I’ve learned that I really love living semi close to the ocean. It brings me peace). Walkability/ public transit would be a plus.
I worry about Florida because I’ve heard horror stories about working as a nurse there. I used to work in Charleston, SC and LOVED it, but it was like an ~8 hour drive from middle TN.
Where are some locations that meet those needs and are also good places for nursing? I also worry about living too far from my rental property, so advice on that would be appreciated.

2023.06.02 01:52 Drty994 Whiskey Tango Ep # 1 Pilot
INT. AIRPLANE - DAY
A young man, JAKE (25), is sleeping in his seat, wearing a wrinkled shirt and a tired expression. He has a small suitcase and a laptop bag with him. A voice over the PA system announces that the flight from London to Miami is about to land.
PILOT (V.O.)
Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. We are now approaching Miami International Airport. The local time is 9:22 a.m. and the temperature is 85 degrees Fahrenheit. Please remain seated with your seatbelts fastened until the seatbelt sign is turned off. Thank you for flying with us and enjoy your stay in Miami.
Jake opens his eyes and rubs them. He looks out the window and sees the blue sky and the ocean. He sighs and stretches his legs.
JAKE (V.O.)
I can't believe I'm doing this. Flying across the Atlantic for a job interview that could make or break my career. A job that involves wrestling and TV. Two things I love more than anything. Well, almost anything.
He takes out his phone and turns it on. He checks his messages and sees one from his girlfriend, LUCY (24).
LUCY (TEXT)
Hey babe, how was the flight? Did you get any sleep? Good luck with the interview, you'll do great! I miss you so much. Call me when you can. Love you xoxo
Jake smiles and texts back.
JAKE (TEXT)
Hey love, flight was long and boring. Got some sleep but not enough. Thanks for the good wishes, I need them. Miss you too. Will call you later. Love you more xoxo
He puts his phone away and looks around. The plane is full of passengers, mostly tourists and business people. He sees a couple of kids running up and down the aisle, a woman reading a magazine, a man watching a movie on his tablet.
JAKE (V.O.)
I wonder what they're all here for. Vacation? Work? Family? Maybe they're all going to the same place as me. The Whiskey Tango Studios. The home of the hottest wrestling show on TV. The show that I've been watching since I was a kid. The show that I've been dreaming of working for since I was a teenager.
He takes out his laptop and opens it. He has a folder with his resume, portfolio, and samples of his work as a writer and producer for various TV shows in the UK.
JAKE (V.O.)
I've worked hard to get here. I've paid my dues in the industry. I've written scripts for soap operas, sitcoms, dramas, reality shows. You name it, I've done it. But none of them gave me the satisfaction that wrestling does. Wrestling is more than just entertainment. It's art. It's storytelling. It's passion.
He clicks on a file that shows a video of him interviewing one of his favorite wrestlers, THE ROCK (45), at a press event in London.
JAKE (V.O.)
This was one of the best moments of my life. Meeting The Rock in person and asking him about his career, his movies, his advice for aspiring wrestlers and writers like me.
The video plays on his laptop screen.
JAKE (ON VIDEO)
So, Rock, what would you say to someone who wants to follow in your footsteps and become a wrestler or a writer for wrestling?
THE ROCK (ON VIDEO)
Well, first of all, I would say thank you for being a fan and for having such passion for this business. Second of all, I would say you have to work hard, be humble, be hungry, and be respectful of everyone who came before you and who will come after you.
The video cuts to Jake nodding and smiling.
JAKE (ON VIDEO)
That's awesome advice, Rock.
THE ROCK (ON VIDEO)
And third of all...
The Rock leans closer to Jake and raises his eyebrow.
THE ROCK (ON VIDEO)
...you have to know your role...
Jake gasps in excitement.
THE ROCK (ON VIDEO)
...and shut your mouth!
The Rock laughs and Jake joins him.
JAKE (ON VIDEO)
Oh my God! You just did it! You just did the catchphrase!
THE ROCK (ON VIDEO)
Of course I did! It's what I do!
The video ends with Jake shaking The Rock's hand and thanking him profusely.
JAKE (V.O.)
That was amazing. He was so cool and nice to me. He even gave me his autograph and took a selfie with me.
He closes his laptop and puts it back in his bag.
JAKE (V.O.)
But that was just a taste of what I want to do for real. I want to write for Whiskey Tango Wrestling. I want to create stories and characters that will make people laugh, cry, cheer, boo, feel something.
He looks out the window again and sees the plane descending towards the airport.
JAKE (V.O.)
And this is my chance to do it. This is my shot at making my dream come true.
He fastens his seatbelt and takes a deep breath.
JAKE (V.O.)
Whiskey Tango Wrestling...here I come.
FADE IN:
EXT. MIAMI INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT - DAY
The sun is shining brightly over the busy airport. A large passenger plane lands on the runway and taxis to the gate.
INT. PLANE - DAY
JAKE COHEN, 25, a scruffy and weary-looking man in a wrinkled suit, wakes up from his seat as the plane comes to a stop. He rubs his eyes and checks his phone. It's 9:32 AM.
He grabs his small cabin case from the overhead compartment and slings his laptop bag over his shoulder. He mumbles a "thanks" to the FLIGHT CREW as he shuffles off the plane.
EXT. PLANE - DAY
William steps out of the plane and is hit by the Miami heat. He squints as he adjusts to the bright sunlight. He follows other passengers down the flight steps and onto the runway.
INT. CUSTOMS - DAY
JAKE waits in line at the customs booth. He looks nervous as he approaches the CUSTOMS OFFICER, who scans his passport and asks him a few questions.
CUSTOMS OFFICER
What's the purpose of your visit, sir?
JAKE
Business.
CUSTOMS OFFICER
How long are you staying?
JAKE
Just a couple of days.
CUSTOMS OFFICER
Do you have anything to declare?
JAKE
No, nothing.
The customs officer nods and stamps his passport.
CUSTOMS OFFICER
Welcome to Miami, Mr. Cohen.
JAKE
Thank you.
JAKE breathes a sigh of relief as he walks away.
INT. BATHROOM - DAY
Jake enters the bathroom and washes his face at the sink. He tidies his hair and sprays some deodorant and cheap aftershave on himself. He brushes his teeth with a travel toothbrush and toothpaste. He looks at himself in the mirror and grimaces. He should have packed another suit or shirt, or something.
INT. ARRIVALS LOUNGE - DAY
Jake exits the bathroom and walks into the arrivals lounge of the airport. He scans the crowd for a sign with his name on it.
He spots three burly LATINO MEN standing together near the exit. One of them is holding a sign that reads "JAKE COHEN". The other two are wearing sunglasses and earpieces.
The three men notice JAKE and approach him with smiles. They shake his sweaty hand one by one.
RICARDO FUENTES DIAZ, 50s, a well-dressed lawyer and accountant, introduces himself.
RICARDO
Senor Cohen? I'm Ricardo Fuentes Diaz, I'm the lawyer and accountant for Mr. Alejandro Rivera. Mr. Rivera has arranged for you to be staying at The Villa Casa Casuarina down on South Beach for the duration of your visit.
WILLIAM
Nice to meet you, Ricardo. And these are...?
RICARDO
Oh, these are Mr. Rivera's associates. This is Carlos and this is Miguel.
CARLOS and MIGUEL nod but don't say anything.
JAKE
I see. Well, thank you for picking me up.
RICARDO
It's our pleasure, senor. Mr. Rivera is very eager to meet you and discuss business with you. He's expecting you at his office at noon.
JAKE
Okay, great.
RICARDO
Shall we go then?
JAKE
Sure, let's go.
Ricardo leads Jake to the exit, followed by Carlos and Miguel.
EXT. AIRPORT - DAY
Ricardo, Jake, Carlos, and Miguel walk out of the airport and head towards a black SUV parked outside.
Ricardo opens the passenger door for Jake.
RICARDO
Please, get in.
Jake gets in the SUV and buckles up.
Ricardo closes the door behind him and gets in the driver's seat.
Carlos and Miguel get in the back seat behind Jake.
Ricardo starts the engine and drives away from the airport.
INT./EXT. SUV - DAY
The SUV speeds along the highway
“No! No issues at all Mr Diaz. Isn’t that the former Versace Mansion?” I quizzed him. Ricardo seemed taken aback by my knowledge and started smiling.
“Indeed it is Mr. Cohen. Please don’t take offence. but I can see you’re a man of champagne taste, and beer money?”
I started chuckling at the comment. “None taken. I’d say more beer taste, and lemonade money.”
“Ah, I see. Well, I’m sure what was arranged with yourself over the phone, but Mr Rivera has mentioned that he will cover your expenses during your time here in Miami. Now, if you will follow me to the car. I’m sure we can stop off at a tailors along the way to get you a new suit. Mr. Rivera will be arriving at your suit around 4pm this afternoon. So when you get back, relax. Eat. Sleep.” replied Ricardo as he led me out of the airport and in to an immaculate deep red Bentley Flying Spur as we drive to the nearest tailors
Scene goes to commercial
INT. HOTEL SUITE - DAY
COHEN, a handsome but weary-looking man in his early twenties, is dressed in a charcoal suit. He checks himself in the mirror and adjusts his tie. He walks to the living room area of the suite, where a laptop and a coffee maker are on a table. He pours himself a cup of coffee and opens the laptop.
COHEN (V.O.)
I've never been a man of luxury. I grew up in a rough neighborhood, where you had to fight for everything you wanted. But when Alejandro Rivera called me and offered me a job as the head writer for his new wrestling company, I couldn't say no. He said he was impressed by my work as a journalist and a podcaster, and he wanted me to help him create something different. Something edgy. Something that would shake up the wrestling world.
He types "Alejandro Rivera" on Google and hits enter.
COHEN (V.O.)
The only problem is, I don't know much about him. Who is he? What is his story? What is his vision? He said he would explain everything in person, at this fancy hotel in downtown Miami. He booked me a suite and paid for my flight. He said he had some other guests he wanted me to meet. He said it was all part of his plan.
He scans the search results, but before he can click on anything, there is a knock on the door. He closes the laptop and walks to the door.
COHEN (V.O.)
Well, I guess this is it. Time to find out what this is all about.
He opens the door and sees BEN, a cheerful bellboy with a cart full of drinks and menus.
BEN
Good afternoon, Mr. Cohen. Sorry to bother you, but we tried calling you on your cell phone. Your guests have arrived.
COHEN
Oh, really? That was fast.
BEN
Yes, sir. They're waiting for you downstairs in the lobby. Shall I bring them up?
COHEN
Sure, sure. That would be great.
BEN
Very well, sir. I'll be right back with them. And here are some menus and drinks for you to enjoy.
COHEN
Thank you, Ben.
BEN
You're very welcome, sir.
BEN smiles and leaves with the cart. COHEN closes the door and takes a deep breath.
COHEN (V.O.)
Okay, Cohen. You can do this. You've been in this business for over a decade. You've interviewed some of the biggest names in wrestling. You've written some of the most controversial stories. You've got this.
He walks back to the living room and picks up one of the menus.
COHEN (V.O.)
Besides, how bad can it be? It's just a job interview. With some mysterious billionaire and his entourage. In a luxury hotel suite. In FL.
He flips through the menu and sees some expensive dishes and drinks.
COHEN (V.O.)
What could possibly go wrong?
He puts down the menu and picks up his coffee cup.
COHEN (V.O.)
Whiskey Tango Foxtrot...
He takes a sip of coffee and makes a face.
COHEN (V.O.)
...this is decaf.
INT. HOTEL SUITE - NIGHT
WILLIAM COHEN, a young and ambitious TV writer, enters the luxurious suite with RICARDO DIAZ, a slick and charming producer. They are greeted by BEN, a friendly hotel employee.
BENWelcome to the penthouse suite, gentlemen. I hope you enjoy your stay.
RICARDOThank you, Ben. You're very kind.
BENCan I get you anything? A drink? A snack?
RICARDONo, thank you. We're fine.
BENAlright then. I'll leave you to it. Have a good night.
BEN exits. RICARDO turns to WILLIAM and smiles.
RICARDOWilliam! Good to see you again.
He shakes WILLIAM's hand warmly.
WILLIAMHello, Mr. Diaz.
RICARDOMr. Cohen, I would love to introduce you to my boss, Mr. Alejandro Rivera.
WILLIAM's eyes widen as he waits for the big reveal. He hears a door open and turns to see ALEJANDRO RIVERA, a short and chubby man in a bright pink Hawaiian shirt, beige pants and brown shoes. He is wearing a fedora and sunglasses and is followed by two muscular bodyguards.
ALEJANDROAhh, Mr. Cohen. What a pleasure to finally meet you!
He takes off his sunglasses and hat and hugs WILLIAM tightly.
ALEJANDRO (CONT'D)How was the journey?
WILLIAMMr. Rivera! The pleasure is all mine. The journey was fine, thank you.
He tries to hide his disappointment and confusion.
WILLIAM (V.O.)This is the guy? The king of Miami? The visionary behind Whiskey Tango? He looks like a tourist who got lost on his way to Disneyland.
ALEJANDROI must admit, I'm very grateful for the suit, the room, and the generosity you've shown me already!
He releases WILLIAM and shakes his hand firmly.
ALEJANDRO (CONT'D)Is it OK to call you William?
WILLIAMThat's absolutely fine, Mr. Rivera.
ALEJANDROPlease, please. My name is Alejandro. Come on, let's sit and we can talk and order some food.
He leads WILLIAM and RICARDO to the living room area, where one of the bodyguards pours whiskey into glasses.
ALEJANDRO (CONT'D)Salud!
They toast and drink.
ALEJANDRO (CONT'D)So, let's cut to the chase, William. I'm a man who has a lot of pull in this beautiful city. I'm well respected. I love the bright neon lights. I love the beautiful Miami sunset. It takes me back to being a kid where I would see similar sights on the TV with Miami Vice, and even wrestling. Mi madre also loved telenovelas back then and I was hooked in. The glitz. The glamour. The violence. The storytelling. That's me, man. Yeah I watch wrestling now, but it's not the same. I want all three entities and mix them up. I saw the stuff you sent to me.
He pulls out a script from his bag and hands it to WILLIAM.
ALEJANDRO (CONT'D)This is brilliant, William. This is exactly what I'm looking for. Whiskey Tango is going to be the next big thing on TV.
ALEJANDRO: (smiling) My brother, Dario, once told me that running a wrestling company was easy. He said all you need is passion, vision and guts. Well, he was wrong. He's gone now, and he running a company in Mexico, and I'm the only one left to carry on our father's legacy. (He gestures to the table) That's why I hired you, Jake. You're the best writer in the business. You have a flair for creating compelling stories and characters. You have a knack for making wrestling exciting and unpredictable.
JAKE: (nodding) Thank you, Mr. Rivera. I appreciate the opportunity. I've always admired your work. You have a reputation for being innovative and daring. You're not afraid to take risks and challenge the status quo.
ALEJANDRO: (clapping) Exactly! That's what I like to hear. You see, Jake, I have a vision for a new wrestling company. A company that will revolutionize the industry. A company that will combine the best of both worlds: the athleticism and skill of USWF, and the drama and spectacle of WWA. A company that will appeal to fans all over the world, especially in Latin America and Europe.
JAKE: (intrigued) Wow. That sounds amazing. What's the name of the company?
ALEJANDRO: (grinning) Lucha Libre Elite.
JAKE: (impressed) I like it. It has a nice ring to it.
ALEJANDRO: (leaning in) And you know what else? I want you to be my head writer. I want you to be the creative force behind this company. I want you to work with me and help me make this dream a reality.
JAKE: (stunned) Me? Really?
ALEJANDRO: (nodding) Yes, you. You have what it takes, Jake. You have talent, passion and vision. Just like me.
RICARDO: (clearing his throat) Excuse me, boss. Jake. If I may interject for a moment.
ALEJANDRO: (annoyed) What is it, Ricardo?
RICARDO: (nervous) Well, boss, I don't mean to rain on your parade, but we have to be realistic here. We have money, yes, but we don't have unlimited resources. We have to be careful with how we spend it. We have to be smart and strategic.
ALEJANDRO: (sighing) Ricardo, Ricardo, Ricardo. Always so cautious and conservative. Don't you see? This is our chance to make history. This is our chance to change the game.
RICARDO: (shaking his head) Boss, I'm just trying to look out for you. For us. You know how tough the competition is out there. You know how ruthless they can be.
ALEJANDRO: (glaring) Who? Who are you talking about?
RICARDO: (swallowing hard) You know who I mean, boss.
JAKE: (confused) Who? Who are they talking about?
ALEJANDRO: (turning to Jake) Jake, let me ask you something. Have you done any research on me? Have you Googled me or read anything about me? Do you know who I am?
JAKE: (hesitant) Well...no...not really...Mr. Rivera.
ALEJANDRO: (laughing) Good! Good! That's good! Because ignorance is bliss, my friend. And trust me, you don't want to know too much about me or my family.
JAKE: (curious) Your family?
ALEJANDRO: (standing up) Yes, Jake. My family. The Cuetos. The most powerful and dangerous family in the world of wrestling. And now...you're part of it too.
(He hugs Jake tightly)
ALEJANDRO: Welcome to La Familia de Cueto. Welcome to Reyes del Mundo, and your the prince of this kingdom, while I reign, as its beneficiator behind the scenes.
Show ends..

2023.06.02 01:18 Glaurung_Quena The anime miniseries "Uchu no senshi" vs Verhoeven's Starship Troopers vs the Heinlein's novel
There was an anime direct to home video miniseries in 1988 based on Heinlein's "Starship Troopers," called "Uchu no senshi" (Soldiers of the universe). The six episodes were released on laserdisk and tape in Japan, and AFAIK, have never been reissued since. I have seen it only because of rips of the laserdisk with fan-translated subs available from torrent sites.
The anime series is OK but not great. It avoids all the (endless, very grumpy) lectures about politics in the original novel and just sticks to the story of Juan Rico, his romance with Carmencita, and the war against the Bugs. It also only covers the first third to half of the novel (Johnny graduates from boot camp at the start of episode 4 of 6). Naturally, since it's anime, the powered armour of the original novel is featured front and centre.
On watching the series, I noticed some odd parallels between how the Anime departs from the novel and how the Verhoeven Starship Troopers movie departs from the novel. Does it make sense to think that the scriptwriter (Neumeier) consulted the anime series to fill in his very careless and sloppy reading of the actual novel? Verhoeven cut out the powered armour of the novel completely, allegedly for budgetary reasons. Other than that, though:
1, Novel: Johnny Rico was active in track, swimming, and debate in high school. Anime: Juan Rico plays American football. Movie: Johnny Rico is a football player.
2, Novel: Rico knows a girl named Carmen but their friendship occupies a couple sentences. She visits him for a date in officer training school, but they aren't in love. Anime: Rico is head over heels for Carmencita, and this is front and centre. Movie: Rico and Carmen's relationship is front and centre.
3, Novel: Rico's family is rich, unlike his best friend, who is poor. Anime: everyone in his social circle is well to do. Movie: everyone owns all the toys and doesn't need to worry about money, in the usual Hollywood "everyone is upper middle class" way.
4, Novel: Rico is a Filipino whose native language is Tagalong (revealed on the last page). Anime: Rico is blonde and blue-eyed. His classmates are likewise mostly very white looking. Movie: Despite supposedly being located in Buenos Aires, all these supposed Latino characters look very Anglo, like they came from an upper class LA high school.
In other areas, the movie takes something partially developed in the anime and runs with it to a new, often quite foolish place.
5, Novel: Rico lives somewhere in a former colony of Spain, but not in the Western Hemisphere (if you pay close attention to the subtle clues sprinkled sparsely through the opening chapters). Anime: Rico lives somewhere where American football is popular, there are lots of people with Hispanic names, all the signage is in English, and the sun rises over the ocean. (Florida?, Texas? California in a retrograde version of Earth? Japan but with everyone mysteriously having Spanish names?). Movie: Rico lives in an Americanized, Anglicized, whitewashed version of Buenos Aires, because Neumeier did not actually read the novel with much attention and failed to realize that Rico's mother was travelling away from home when she died in the Bug attack on that city.
6, Novel: boot camp instructor Staff Sergeant Zim asks the new recruits if any of them can take him in a fight. When he then breaks the wrist of one of the recruits who fights him, he apologizes for it – “I’m sorry, you hurried me a little.” Anime: Zim hurts a recruit’s forearm, possibly on purpose, and says “go to the dispensary, it’s just a simple dislocation, you’ll be better in three hours.” Movie: Zim deliberately and with malice breaks of the arm of an already defeated man (movie Zim = sociopath).
7, Novel: Zim trains the recruits in knife throwing. A recruit asks why they are doing something so primitive when the enemy has nuclear bombs. Zim replies with two short lectures, one on how there is no such thing as a dangerous weapon, only a dangerous man, and second on how the military’s job is not to obliterate the enemy but to exert as much or as little violence against the enemy as the government desires. Anime: there's a severely condensed version of the first lecture about dangerous men. Movie: Zim doesn’t answer the question at all, he just stabs the recruit in the hand because sociopath.
Finally, there are a few places where the movie follows neither the anime nor the book.
8, Novel: Zim cares deeply for the welfare of his trainees, and this is explicitly conveyed through a lot of words. Anime: in the three episodes set in boot camp, Zim is harder and more cruel, but we are shown through his expressions that despite the mean exterior, he cares a great deal about the welfare of his trainees. Movie: Zim is a sociopath who goes out of his way to hurt his trainees.
9, Novel: Zim's cheeks are "shaved blue," so he’s pale skinned. No other description of his appearance is given. Anime: Zim is of African descent, and just about the only character depicted with non pale skin. Movie: Zim is a blond, Aryan looking white guy. (considering Hollywood's racist approach to casting, this is not surprising)
Looking at all of that together, I start wondering: could the script for the movie have been borrowing from the anime? If you've seen the anime yourself, please let me know your thoughts. If you haven't: it's six short episodes, and worth your time if you are a Heinlein completist.
(eta: fixed formatting, hopefully more readable now)

2023.06.01 23:35 RaptorK1988 The Pacific US States vs The Gulf of Mexico States vs Atlantic States vs the Great Lakes States
The Federal Government dissolves and every nuke and the materials needed to make more are destroyed. The Federal troops remain and fight in and for the states they're based in though.
These new factions emerge; Pacific Ocean States: Cali, Oregon, Washington, Hawaii and Alaska
Gulf of Mexico States: Texas, Florida, Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama
Great Lake States: New York, PA, Ohio, Michigan, Wisconsin, Illinois and Indiana
Atlantic Coast States: Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia, Maryland, DE, NJ, CT, Massachusetts
The rest of New England, Montana and the Dakotas join Canada. The other states are independent but that can change
Which faction is the strongest? Which has the most potential? Which will seek to expand? Which will fall?

2023.06.01 23:24 RamenBowl68 SC SEL w/ activity pack vs limited
just test drove both the sel with the activity package and a limited. i would love to turn one into a frequent offroad camper but overall daily driver. the premium trim was surprisingly fast and great for driving in south florida where i’m frequently needing to evade/speed past idiot drivers and the vented seats are invaluable in the summer but the DCT worries me for trail/dirt/mud driving. i know a bigger oil cooler would help but this with the multiple issues and recalls definitely hinders my confidence so i figured the N/A engine with the regular trans is probably better but I worry about not having enough power under load (especially with bed racks, camping gear etc going off road). does anyone have any real off-roading experience with these? if so please share stories, anything helps. thanks so much. and yes i’ve thought about turboing the N/A but the comp ratio is wayyyy too high to do anything with and would probably be cheaper to slap the 2.5T in it if money was no issue

2023.06.01 22:35 Hot_Choice_4490 Need help determining salary vs 1099?
Hi y'all,
I recently passed the board exam and have begun working as a BCBA. My conundrum is whether to look for a salaried job or work as a contractor. I have always leaned towards salaried since one of offers I got is the conventional 8-5 pm in one place. I currently work as a 1099 at an agency at $75/hr rate but the hours are all over the place, driving distance is not too bad (5-15 minutes) from my home for most of my cases. The issue is that I get very little hours since the agency staffs most supervision hours with BCaBAs and I am just left with the BCaBAs supervision which is like 1hweek and 1hr parent training which has a high cancellation rate. Also, the company expects me to do a lot of the Admin work like get supporting documentation and liaison between the company and the parents. They don't even inform the parents when they have been approved, I am supposed to be the one to schedule RBTs, provide them documentation for entrance to schools, and so on.
How much money would be considered a decent salary for 40 hour work week? If there is anyone from South Florida that could shine a light on what to look for I would be forever grateful.

2023.06.01 19:36 voittoisa Adjudication Withheld
Hi! I will try to make this super quick, but Google is confusing me and I just wanted some advice/clarification.
This past spring break I went to Daytona beach in Florida. My friends and I are 20 and were being stupid and had beer on the beach. Someone reported us and a cop came and busted us. I was in the water and was not seen physically with a drink in my hand or me drinking at all. Despite that, we all got a fine for underage drinking. We weren't arrested, just handed a ticket with a court date and a fine amount where we chose which we wanted to do. The cop told me I could go to court but wouldn't win because he got me on camera with the drink (I can't imagine how as I was in the ocean and watched him drive up to my friend on the beach). He also told me if we paid the fine, it wouldn't show up on our records, so I took it at that and just paid it.
I just recently got an internship where I had to perform a background check. I didn't think anything of it, but when I got my report back, the underage charge showed up on it and as Adjudication Withheld. According to Google, it was supposed to be gone after the requirements by the judge were met (paying the fine). Other sources then told me it would never leave my record. I guess I am just confused because the cop and the internet are telling me different things. I am super worried my internship offer will be revoked, and was wondering if the Adjudication Withheld will go away or if it will actually stay on there forever?

2023.06.01 12:11 Working_Ad_6608 Nika’s lying about driving 3-4 hours
I was busy yesterday and I meant to comment on this. Why does this dummy keep stating that she drives 3-4 hours to get to her destination? She lives in South Carolina and so do I. If Nika drives 4 hours in any direction, she would wind-up in Georgia, North Carolina or the Atlantic Ocean.
Nika we know you are still in Sumter County. Please stop with the BS talking about everything is a 2-3-4 hour drive 🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️
And BTW you are only an 45min-hour away from Columbia.

2023.06.01 04:52 SpicyTabasco3000 42M going on a family vacation with wife and 4 kids + MIL & FIL that my in-laws and my wife planned that no one else wants to go on
My in-laws and my wife are country fans and romanticize everything about the south.
I have never really fully embraced it, neither have our children.
Our oldest just graduated from high school, and now they are making us go to Gatlinburg Tennessee for a week on vacation.
It's going to be a 20 hour round trip by car to go to a part of the country most of us don't even think about, to enjoy a culture we really don't care for.
I thought we got out of it when our van started having mechanical issues and the shop wasn't going to be able to have it done in time for us to go.
But, no. Our in-laws are now renting a car.
So, now I am driving a 20 hour round trip in a rental car full of angry kids that don't want to go.
Sucks that this may be the last trip that we get with our oldest child and it's probably going to be on a low note.
I can't even begin to explain how difficult it has been trying to explain this to my wife and in-laws.
Our trips are usually pretty big, like bucket list big.
Disney World, Disneyland, beaches, major cities, skiing in the Rockie, kids' first experience in a new ocean to them.
From what I can tell we are going to be spending a week in a geriatric tourist trap with a southern drawl.
Now, I like some country music. It's all much older stuff not the formulaic buzzword pop music that's getting churned out these days.
Like Johnny Cash and Dolly Parton and the like. Now, my kids are getting older and they cannot stand country music. Even after explaining who Dolly Parton is and playing her music for them many times, they're not interested.
Apparently 2 of the days are going to be at Dollywood
Sure, 3/4 of the adults going will enjoy themselves. But these vacations aren't supposed to be for the adults and I just don't see the kids enjoying themselves.
Is there any way to make this something they'll enjoy?
I've been trying to play it from a "surprise" angle by not telling them what we'll be doing. But even then they're not enthused about the idea of sitting in the car for 10 hours only to end up in Tennessee.
Edit: typos

No experience necessary for the laborer custodial or maintenance mechanic positions. It helps on the interview but you can surely think of maintenance related experience to relay for an interview. Based on fixing things around your house, the car etc.
Always mention working safely.
Pro tip: You can apply for any job that has an exam opening and the test is administered local to yourself. Make sure you're serious and score decently; you can turn down the job offer. Keep a physical copy of your exam score, I believe they are good for two years.
The reason is: These job postings can be posted externally at capacity for testing, meaning they will not allow you to take the exam if they have enough qualified applicants. However, if you have a test score on the books,
you are a qualified applicant.
Explanation of MVO/TTO to save time:
MVO= CDL B Can only drive box trucks on public roads, can drive anything for moves on postal property.
TTO= CDL A Can drive anything.
USPS provides the training. (Maintenance jobs at least. TTO and management...GOOD LUCK)
You don't have to be crazy to work here. We'll train you. Everything but proper email usage. submitted by

2023.05.31 21:09 VashxShanks [JRPGs on Sale - Weekly Breakdown & Game Recommendations] For 31 May - 2023 - PSN/Switch/Xbox/Steam (+Steam Deck)
Important Notes:
- I do my best to include every sale, but at the same time I focus on sales that are worth a mention, meaning sales start with at least 20% and up. I usually skip anything below that unless it's a worth while title.
- Click on the price to visit the store page for that game.
- The end date of the sale isn't mentioned, you can check the store page to see it.
- All of these sales are based on the US store front, so some sales may not be available depending on your country.

~ General Recommendations (All Consoles) For Anyone Who Can't Decide ~
First off, I won't recommend big or famous games like Final Fantasy or Persona, this is more for lesser know, hidden gems, or just games where it's hard to find someone talking about them.
[Valkyria Chronicles]
[Valkyria Chronicles 4]
This one is really hard to explain through words alone, but just in case, the VC series is a World War 2 military setting story, where you act as the lead of a squad and take mission to drive back the enemy. The story is drama heavy and the gameplay is tactical turn-based, but it's mixed with real-time third person shooter.
You can also make your own army by recruiting different types of solders, training them and upgrading their gear. From rifles to tanks, this is a game you have to experience to understand.
[Wild Arms 1 & 2]
Great classics, and are now sold for dirt cheap, though even their full price is also a steal. If you're looking for great stories, and really interesting characters, combined with truly great puzzles, then don't miss on these 2 games. They started an entire series, and are classics for a reason.
[Digimon Story Cyber Sleuth: Complete Edition]
2 full games in 1. If you're a fan of the series then this is a must play, it dives into the lore more than a lot of the previous games, and also has one of the biggest Digimon rosters till to day.
Even if you're not into the Digimon series, if you're looking for your next fix of Capture/Evolve/Fusion -> Grind -> Capture/Evolve/Fusion -> Grind while you listen to your favorite podcast/music, then no need to wait anymore, with hours upon hours you can easily spend just grinding and completing the game's various content from side-quests, rare monsters, arena, and even tamer team fights. The gameplay is simple, which is a great way to keep your brain off, yet it still has challenge battles now and then to make sure you're doing your job grinding and raising your Digimons.
[ASTLIBRA Revision]
If you are still itching for side-scroller action JRPGs with a good loot system and a good story and world that you can sink your teeth into, then look no further. A game that was 14 years in development and an extra year to work on this remastered version, was more than worth it. The action is meaty and satisfying, the loot is great with each item having the potential of changing your fighting style, and just so much content to explore and have fun with.
Then you add to that fantastic art work by Shigatake of Vanillaware, he worked on games like Odin Sphere, GrimGrimoire, Muramasa: The Demon Blade and others. Then you finally throw in a huge amazing soundtrack, and when I say huge I mean HUGE. With all of that together you have a really great title that any action JRPG fan shouldn't miss.
[Utawarerumono] series
This fantastic visual novel style tactical game is one hell of a ride from start to end. If you're looking for a fantasy JRPG with amazing world building and an epic of story that expands three whole games, there is no reason to not get this whole series. Drama, Comedy, Mystery, Action, Horror, Fan-service, Betrayal, Revenge, Adventure, etc... This is the whole package here when it comes to story, world, and characters. Just don't expect it to be heavy on gameplay and combat.
Prelude to the Fallen is the first game story-wise, the 2nd game is Utawarerumono: Mask of Deception and after that is Utawarerumono: Mask of Truth.
[Rune Factory 4 Special]
Don't even think too long about it, a fantastic game and a great port too, so much you play it easily with mouse and keyboard or controller.
The characters are fun and lovable, the story is interesting, and most of all, the loop is very varied and enjoyable. So much to do:
- Farming
- Cooking
- Monster Collection and Raising
- Dating and Marriage
- Dungeon Crawling
- Blacksmithing and a deep weapon upgrading system
- Fishing
- Festivals
- Town Management
- House decorating
- Resource gathering
- Monster Mounts
- Mastering different weapon styles
- Mastering Magic
And so much more. Not to mention that everything you do has a level and so no matter what you spend the day doing, you'll always be leveling something and getting better.
Do you want a game where you can cook horrible burnt food, then take said food and use it as a weapon to beat bosses, and even have said bosses then till your farm and water your crops while you're out riding cows and fighting giant chickens the same time you're on date with your favorite NPC ? Then yea, RF4 got you covered. The only thing you'll miss, is sleep while playing this gem.
As always, please do add your own recommendations, and let me know if there is mistake or if something was missing, and have a nice day.

2023.05.31 20:29 BelovedxCisque Minion’s Tale
| I’ve got a bit of a story…rewind back to the winter if 2010. I was in a really bad place (abusive ex/having a horrible time at school/parents being uncompromising) and I was walking back to my college dorm thinking about how it would be so much easier if I wasn’t alive and how to best go about that when I found Minion. Minion was an orange and white Circo cat from Target and he just happened to be laying on the sidewalk right in front of me as I walked. Minion was the name of my ex’s cat that he’d found under a park bench one night and he looked the same down to the white tip of his tail so it was an obvious choice for a name. I took that as a sign to hold on just a bit more. Minion came with me on all sorts of adventures. I went to see my ex that was abusive when he was living in South Korea and Minion came. Whilst there I got food poisoning so bad I thought that was going to be what ended my life approximately 12 hours before I was supposed to fly bank to the USA. He got vomited on during the landing of the Korea-Japan leg of the trip. I refused to throw him away so he got wrapped in a plastic bag and I held him and cried to the point I thought I was going to burst every blood vessel in my eyes during the Japan-USA part of the journey. He got a bath in a pillow case in the washing machine after that and went on lots of other journeys with me. When I lived with my other ex boyfriend in a different state he was there. When I went to China to teach English for 6 years he was there. When I went to Peru to try Ayahuasca for the first time he was in the room backing me up. I made a human personality for him in my mind and I decided he would have been special forces during the Vietnam War. He got hurt in combat and was honorably discharged and retired to Florida where he spent most of his time living out his retirement peacefully and was a beloved member of the local community but every once in awhile his country would call on him and he’d suit up and go back. The jungles of Vietnam were the days when I would just sob and sob to the point my teeth hurt. He got hurt by me hugging him too much (he was pretty flat and I actually took him to Build a Bear and they re stuffed him for me and I put a heart inside him when I was there because he deserved one and needed it to do his job). I adopted a greyhound from a Chinese slaughterhouse rescue and he was still in the puppy chewing stage and almost chewed an ear off of him. He would have gotten the Bronze Star for bravery for having all that happen to him and still serving. The ex I lived with said that sometimes soldiers get hurt and dirty serving their country but they know it’s their duty and if they weren’t up for it they wouldn’t have enlisted and he wouldn’t have been on the sidewalk that day if he couldn’t handle being my friend through all of that. I came back to the USA in the summer of 2021 with him and my greyhound. We ended up meeting somebody on Reddit and after a few months I moved to Oregon to be with him. We all loved together happily until February. In February we went on a little road trip to Portland (about 2 hours away) to replace the shoe inserts I have because I have no arches and am in pain and stomp around like Godzilla without them. I thought he was packed up in the backpack when it was time to go home but I guess not. When I went to unpack I found he wasn’t in the backpack. Partner and I gutted the apartment and tore up the car without success. I called the hotel and they said he wasn’t there. I called 8 hours later got a different person who actually went up to the room (he said we were the last ones in it) and looked only to find nothing. I even made a post on Portland asking if anybody saw him to please let me know and I’d pay to have him sent to me as well as a finder’s fee. Nothing. Many tears were shed and lots of sleep was lost. I was telling the story at lunch at my work and a woman who travels a lot said legally hotels aren’t allowed to throw anything out as it’s somebody’s property (not even so much as a sock under the bed) and he was there and they were just being lazy. I showed everybody pictures and as parents/woman they all agreed that if they found something like that they’d know it was obviously important to somebody and not throw it out (my biggest fear). The traveling woman said that most men that are on the cleaning team are younger guys who have siblings or kids if their own and would know to not throw it out. She said to have my partner call and ask how long they keep lost things. He did and they said 90 days. So we made the drive back to Portland to check the hotel in the hopes that it was just laziness and if I was physically there asking he’d magically show up. After 2 hours in the car we pulled into the parking lot and I anxiously walked up to the front desk to ask about him. The lady said she’d look in the back, my heart sunk when she came up empty handed. I asked for the sake of my own sanity could I please go look for him in the lost and found. She agreed and I went back to check. Instead of his squashed little face and torn ear peeking out from a plastic bag all there was was a neck pillow and some old clothes. I walked back out to the parking lot in tears. About a month later I was at a local Ayahuasca retreat and as I listened to the chanting and held the vomit bucket I was sobbing. I was deep in the depths of sorrow and was thinking about how in the religion I was raised in you’re more or less condemned for being born. I didn’t ask to be born and if there was some button I could push so I just somehow didn’t exist and nobody would remember me and I would just kind of melt into blackness and become one with the night I would. But that’s impossible. I realized that during that night of wishing my parents never had me that I must have realized that before on some subconscious level along with the fact that I couldn’t will myself out of existence. So I did it for the thing I loved the most. Minion. About a month after that I was coming back from the store when I went to unlock the door to my apartment and saw a familiar shape on the doorstep. Minion?!?! I picked up the stuffed animal and realized it was way WAY too clean to be Minion plus the ear wasn’t dangling by a thread. It wasn’t as fat as Minion was due to having been restuffed but it was clearly the same make/model. There was a small hole in its chest so I sewed that up while thinking about how I have a little scar right in the middle of my chest from a cyst removal so this one matched me on a physical level. I sat on the bed holding my new little buddy while I waited for my partner to get out of the shower so I could ask him what kind of magic he worked to make a plush that hadn’t been sold in stores in 10+ years appear on our doorstep. He at first denied anything to do with the new plush friend on the doorstep but after more questioning he admitted to possibly maybe having something to do with it. There were some happy tears cried as I hugged him with the new cat smashed in between us. My partner asked was his name still Minion and I said no. Minion was gone forever and I’d made peace with it and there were new adventures and stories to be had. This one was a girl and her name is Angelina. submitted by BelovedxCisque to plushies [link] [comments] |
2023.05.31 18:06 Ok-Kick832 hello everyone I had this what if in my head months ago and so I finally wrote it down over the course of months it was, what if mammals dominated during the Mesozoic? And what would WWD be like?
Hope you enjoy this first is NEW BLOOD
By a river, a female Archosaur stalks a herd of dicynodonts called Placerias, looking for weak members to prey upon. Downstream, a male feathered dinosaur resides in a tree with his family. A female Postosuchus, a rauisuchian and one of the largest carnivores alive in the
Triassic, attacks the
Placerias herd, and wounds one individual; the herd scatters, leaving the wounded
Placerias to the
Postosuchus. Early bats are depicted feeding on dragonflies and cooling themselves in the little water remaining during the drought before being eaten by a larger dragonfly. Searching for food, a female badger like mammal, alongside another badger, discovers the dinosaur nest; the female wards them off. Later that evening, after he goes off hunting, an inquisitive chick follows but falls onto land trying to follow its father and is caught by the female badger. At night, the dinosaurs pick up their remaining pups and then move away. On the next day, the badgers work to collapse the tree. The female
Postosuchus meanwhile is shown to have been wounded by the
Placerias, a prior attack on them leaving her with a tusk wound on her thigh. After being unable to successfully hunt another
Placerias, she is expelled from her territory by a predatory phytosaur. Wounded, sick, and without a territory, the female
Postosuchus dies and is eaten by a pack of archosaurs. As the dry season continues, food becomes scarce. The
Placerias herd embarks on a journey in search of water, while the archosaurs begin to cannibalise their young, and the male dinosaurs also resorts to hunting baby badgers at night. Finally, the wet season arrives; the majority of the archosaurs have survived (including the lead female), and the dinosaur pair have a new clutch of eggs. The episode ends with the arrival of a herd of giant Procoptodon like mammal which are followed by a large fox like mammal which fights and kills a Postosuchus.
TIME OF THE TITANS
This episode follows the life of a female prosauropod, beginning at the moment when her mother lays a clutch of eggs in the heart conifer forest. Three months later, some of the eggs hatch; the young prosauropods are preyed upon by fox like mammal and other dinosaurs. After hatching, the hatchlings retreat to the safety of the denser trees. They face many dangers as they grow, including predation by the foxes and existing Smilodon like mammals which are replacing the foxes increasingly . Even a giant Deinotherium like mammal accidentally also kills one of the hatchlings by swinging its tusks while fending off a pair of Smilodon like mammals and a weird crocodile like cetan. Elsewhere, adult herds of prosauropods are shown using their massive weight to topple trees in order to reach
cycad leaves and giant ferns. Each one hosts a small mobile habitat of
damselflies, bats, and
beetles. After some time, the creche of cute creatures have grown into subadults. Nearly all are killed by a huge forest fire; only three survivors emerge onto the open plains, including the young female. They encounter several Paracetherium before only two reach safety of a herd of adult prosauropods. Several years later, the female mates, and a few days after, is attacked by a bull smilodon like mammals. She is saved when another prosauropod strikes the
Allosaurus with its tail. She rejoins the herd, albeit with deep wounds on her side, but she will recover. The closing narration notes that their successors the sauropods will in the Cenozoic become the largest animals ever to walk the Earth but currently its the paracetherium.
CRUEL SEA
episode begins with a small elephant like mammal being snatched from the shore by a male
Liopleurodon. It then cuts to show how dinosaurs have dominated the European islands with fauna similar to the ones in
Jurassic Impact. Meanwhile, hundreds of cetans arrive from the open ocean to give birth but they are attacked by a Basilosaur look a like.
Hybodus and a
Liopleurodon are on the hunt; when a mother cetan has trouble giving birth, a pair of
Hybodus pursue her. They are frightened off by the male
Liopleurodon, which eats the front half of the cetan. Meanwhile, a Andrewsarchus like mammal the last of its kind if you forget the fox like mammals swims to an island and discovers a turtle carcass; it fights over the carcass with another. Later, during the night, a group of
horseshoe crabs gather at the shore to lay their eggs, which attracts a flock of bats in the morning to eat the eggs. However, a few of the bats are caught and eaten by a giant dragonfly . While the cetan juveniles are growing up, they are hunted by
Hybodus, which in turn, are prey for the
Liopleurodon. While the male
Liopleurodon is hunting, he encounters a female Basilosaurus like mammal; after the male bites one of her flippers, she retreats from his territory, and a group of
Hybodus follows the trail of her blood. A
cyclone strikes the islands, killing many animals, including several bats and the basilosaurus, who is washed ashore and eventually suffocates under his own weight. A group of small dinosaurs feed on her carcass. At the end of the episode, the juvenile cetans that survived the storm are now large enough to swim off and live in the open sea but are hunted by some other cetans.
GIANT OF THE SKIES
The episode begins with the last giant Dragonfly dead on a beach. Six months earlier, the last Dragonfly, resting among a colony of breeding giant bats in
Brazil, flies off for
Cantabria where he too must mate. He flies past a
migrating group of chalicothere mimics and the nodosaur
Polacanthus. He reaches the southern tip of
North America, where he is forced to seek shelter from a storm. He grooms himself, expelling his body of fleas; the wings begin to change colour in preparation for the mating season. He then sets off across the
Atlantic, which was then only 300 kilometres wide, and after a whole day on the wing, reaches the westernmost of the European islands. He does not rest there however, as a pack of dromaeosaurs are hunting horses; a young one is bullied off an Horse carcass by the adults. The Dragonfly flies to the outskirts of a forest to rest after stealing a fish from a bat, but is driven away by a flock of new fliers called Anurognathids. Flying on, he reaches Cantabria, but finds no other dragonflies and consequently he does not mate. After several days under the sun trying to attract a mate, the protagonist dragonflies dies from a combination of heat, stress and starvation. . The new replacements bats feeds on its corpse.
SPIRITS OF THE ICE FOREST
A few hundred kilometres from the
South Pole, a clan of
Leaellynasaura emerge during spring after several months of total darkness. They feed on the fresh plant growth (which has adapted to the changing seasons), and build nests to lay their eggs; a
Koolasuchus also wakes and heads to a river, where he will stay during the summer. Out on the banks of the river, migrating herds of Macraucheia have also arrived to feed and lay their eggs. When summer arrives, many of the
Leaellynasaura clan's eggs have been eaten; however, those of the matriarch hatch successfully. Meanwhile, a male Polar Smilodon like mammal and its pride hunts both the
Leaellynasaura and the Macraucheia, the latter species also having to deal with blood-sucking birds the Smilodon male deals with being attacked and exiled by a larger male. When autumn arrives, the herd begins to migrate, and the
Koolasuchus leaves the river to find a pool for hibernation and all the cubs of the old male Smilodon are killed. During the migration, some
Muttaburrasaurus become lost in the forest; they vocalize loudly while trying to return to their herd, preventing the
Leaellynasaura clan's sentries from hearing the male Smilodon approaching. It manages to kill the matriarch of the clan. Winter descends and the forest is shrouded in darkness, but the now matriarch-less
Leaellynasaura clan is able to stay active, using their large eyes to help them forage for food. The clan and other creatures are also shown to use various methods of coping with the cold.. Finally, spring returns, and two
Leaellynasaura males challenge each other for the right to mate, and the clan establishes a new dominant pair and the old male Smilodon kills the new male Smilodon and takes the pride back. The closing narration acknowledges that soon this landmass will be pulled closer to the South Pole and when that happens, this unique ecosystem and its inhabitants will disappear.
DEATH OF THE DYNASTY
Several months before the
Cretaceous–Paleogene extinction event, the last mammals are living under intense environmental stress due to excessive
volcanism. A female giant Entelodont like monotremes abandons her nest, the eggs rendered infertile due to acidic pollution. Her calls for a mate are answered by a smaller male, who kills a young rhino like mammal to appease her. Three days later, after repeated copulation, she drives him off. The mother fasts as she tends to her nest, contending with raids by
dromaeosaurs and Squirrel like mammals. Meanwhile, herds of deer like mammals wander between islands of vegetation among the volcanic ash, and rhinoceros rut for the right to mate, while losing their young to attacking dromaeosaurs. Only three of the Entelodont hatches ; the mother hunts one of the last elephants to feed herself and her brood. One of the last giant bats flies into the area and is killed by the last cetans. Several days later, while defending her two surviving offspring, the mother is fatally injured by the tail of an
Ankylosaurus. The juveniles remain expectantly next to the carcass of their mother the next morning; several hours later, they are killed along with the other mammals in the region by the impact of a
comet in the
Gulf of Mexico. The impact, said to be as powerful as ten billion
Hiroshima bombs, resulted in 65% of life -the mammals included- dying out in the ensuing cataclysmic changes to the climate. In an epilogue, the present-day African plains are shown; while they are now dominated dinosaurs after millions of years of recovery from the impact, they are still populated by a small group of mammals that did survive the extinction: the rodents, the squirrels and many other small vermin like mammals.
THE GIANT CLAW- TO EDIT
searches the late Jurassic islands for
Therizinosaurus, who has massive and very long claws.
The episode starts off with Nigel in his ship where he shows a giant claw that scientists originally thought to be the rib of a giant turtle but was actually the claw of Therizinosaurus. He is interrupted when a giant turtle passes through and he films them. The turtle sneezes on him and Nigel sets off on his journey
Nigel comes across a nesting ground of heterodontosaurs
that he crosses by using a red flag to draw their attention while one snaps at his cameraman. They travel into a forest where they watch a pack of cassowary like dinosaurs and their friends
hunt heterodontosaurs. In a different forest, Nigel sets camp and finds a scorpion that he keeps. At night, a group of Mononykus like creatures approach the camp site and Nigel tries to catch one. After he caught one, he discovers that they have feathers but he puts his thumb in its mouth causing it to bleed. The next morning, Nigel finds that the Mononykus have eaten his scorpion and he packs up his camp. In the scrublands, Nigel hides in the vegetation urging his cameraman to turn off the camera when he spots a feathered predator
that spooks some Mononykus. Then Nigel waits out at a beach with some Heterodontosaurs and Mononykus as a perfect place for theropods to hunt prey. There he finds a hatched nest with the skeleton of a baby Therizinosaurus in a partially hatched egg as well as herbivore dung. Not far away, he finds a full skeleton of a Therizinosaurus. A large crocodile notices him and chases him and his cameraman into the forest. They climb onto tall tree stumps out of their reach and use a bicycle horn to scare of the raptors. After hearing commotion from the heterodontosaurs, Nigel returns to the watering hole where a feathered apex comes to scavenge and drink but is interrupted by the roar of a
Therizinosaurus leading to a clash of the titans. The Therizinosaurus fends off the
Tarbosaurus with its formidable claws forcing it to back down. Nigel then finds whole herd of
Therizinosaurus emerging from the forest and it is a herbivore that uses its sickle-claws to hook tree and bush branches towards its mouth. Nigel ultimately concludes that it was gentle herbivore by touching one that licks him and knocks him over.
Land OF GIANTS
Nigel travels back in time with his film crew. He travels to a nearby lake, where large mammals named Brutodontids nest every year. There Nigel sees a juvenile Brutodon, where he is attacked by a giant mosasaur. Nigel then coaxes it out of the lake by splashing a stick in the water. It lays on the shore. Nigel attaches a video camera to his head and walks towards it, and demonstrates it's biting power by pushing a stick into it's mouth and having it bite down on it.
Later Nigel climbs up the volcanic slopes to get a panoramic view of the area to see Brutodon herd. Instead he finds a herd of small horses. His search leads him all the way to the coast, where he views a colony of medium sized bats on the cliffs hunting fish. Nigel doesn't return to the campsite until night, where he finds that a large predator has attacked his tent, and left all the provisions littered across the surrounding ground. He finds a single theropod dinosaur tooth jammed in a can of meat.
The next morning Nigel has set up an alarm system outside the camp so that if something breaks the laser tripwire, a loud alarm will sound, alerting Nigel. Later he tracks down the predator, where, around midday, Nigel hears a commotion further ahead. He finds a wounded horse in a rocky gully. He walks further upstream to find a smaller dead individual with a strange feathered apex predator eating it.
Later Nigel is shown flying over the ash-fields in an ultralight. Soon he finds another Sea Bat flock. After breaking away he sees a giant bat, one of the largest animal ever to fly. Soon Nigel discovers the Brutodon herd far below, so he lands the ultra light nearby his jeep. He then drives off towards the herd and locates it without any trouble.
After appreciating their gargantuan size, Nigel drives into a natural 'funnel', caused by a break in some trees. He then sets up some weighing scales designed for lorries. After several fruitless attempts, an Brutodon steps on the scales, showing that it weighs 92.3 tonnes, and Nigel explains that that's the same as 30 African elephants.
The next morning Nigel in chasing an horse 20 miles away from the camp in the jeep, when he realizes that it is actually running because a
Giganotosaurus is chasing them both. Nigel narrowly escapes the predator only to meet up with the herd later in the morning to find an entire pack of
Giganotosaurus mobbing the herd but most are killed.
By the afternoon the pack has singled out a juvenile, and are inflicting wounds, waiting for her to bleed to death. The hunt continues for the rest of the day and into the night, when filming is no longer possible and Nigel must leave.
The next morning, Nigel finds the herd at the nesting site beside the lake. While the females lay their eggs Nigel comments on what a magical ending this is for his dinosaur safari. Suddenly a Mosasaur lunges at him out of the water
NEW DAWN- WWB REALITY
The episode starts by showing how the mammals were dominating the land and that dinosaurs were small. Then it shows how "an asteroid the size of Mount Everest" struck the Earth and demolished the mammals, and how dinosaurs evolved into new forms thereafter. The first episode depicts the warm tropical world of the early Eocene, sixteen million years after the extinction of the giant mammals. Bats, the one of the surviving lineage of the mammals, including the giant carnivorous Mega Bat, rule this world, while dinosaurs are still very small. The setting is near the Messel pit in Germany. Due to volcanic activity, sudden bulk escapes of carbon dioxide trapped underneath lakes pose a significant hazard to the local wildlife. The episode centers around a Parkosaur family, a leaping, shrew-like dinosaur, which has emerged in the dawn hours to forage for food. As the mother forages, first in solidarity, and then with her pups, she wanders near a large predatory mammal, identified as an
Ambulocetus the last cetan. A female Mega Bat, who has been taking care of the single undeveloped baby in her nest, makes two attempts to hunt a small herd of
Protoceratops like dinosaurs, early ceratopsians. The first attempt fails when sounds among the vegetation betray her presence and they mob her. The second attack proves successful when the
Protoceratops consume fermenting grapes and are unable to evade her attack also defends her territory from another. Unfortunately, while the mother hunts, a horde of
Titanomyrma, giant carnivorous ants, encounter the baby when it dropped out of the nest, and successfully kill and eat the chick. When the female discovers her dead offspring at dusk she leaves the forest to try and start another family.
With the arrival of night, a band of lemur-like
Godinotia, socialize and copulate in the dark the narration reveals how they will be the most successful in this new world.
Ambulocetus finally manages to catch a Flamingo like bird near the lake edge. As the night wears on, an earth tremor unleashes trapped carbon dioxide out from underneath the lake and the gas suffocates most of the surrounding life. The Parkosaurs survive because the nest was upwind of the gas while the Bat was killed because she stayed in that area in the forest.
It is mentioned that although they survived the gas, they would ultimately leave many descendants, while the
Ambulocetus, who was killed by the lethal gases, would leave none.
WHALE KILLER
This episode introduces the Mosasaur, an ancient type of mosasaur. Mosasaur became the new king of the ocean after the giant cetans of the
Mesozoic died out alongside the mammals (see
Cruel Sea). It was much bigger than the sharks it shared the ocean with, and it regularly ate the sharks. However, Mosasaur was still less advanced than the modern species; it still had rear flippers (that helped it during the mating) and lacked the blubber. At the same time, this program depicted the beginning of 'climate chaos' - a relatively minor extinction event between Eocene and Oligocene, also known as "The Great Cut". On land dinosaurs too have become big and huge. This episode featured Torosaurus like ceratopsians and the Andrewsarchus, a mammal that was considered to be a relative to the kings of the Cretaceous the Entelodont. Both were much bigger than the land dinosaurs featured in
New Dawn episode, but their brains were still small and their behavior - primitive. They were the first true dinosaur rulers of the land and most of them would die out during "The Great Cut". As the El Nino continues and the extinction event is beginning, the female Mosasaur is forced to change her hunting ground from open seas to mangrove swamps (the future
Sahara desert). There she encounters small sharks,
Apidium, and
Moeritherium. It is described as the last stronghold of the mammals A spinosaurid like dinosaur eats an
Apidium but is too small to attack
Moeritherium, The mosasaur hunts and eats one alive. She leaves. The Torosaurus continue to strive but most of the juvenlies are killed young by the poisonous plants of their home Two
Andrewsarchus steal such a calf, but begin to fight over it in order to determine which of them gets to eat it first. The calf's mother decides that the calf is alive and fights off the
Andrewsarchus - for a time, but leaves when the rest of her young hatch.
The female Mosasaurus discovers a lagoon where dolphin like mammals that appeared after the mass extinction of cetans are beginning to calf. At first the smaller whales use their numbers' advantage to chase away the giant, but the female Mosasaurus eventually returns and begins to hunt and devour the calves - and this time the adults can't stop her.
Several months later
Basilosaurus gives birth to her own calf, but the episode ends saying that both the mother and child are doomed to perish - but whales as a group will survive.
LAND OF GIANTS
The third episode takes place in late Oligocene Mongolia, where seasonal rains are followed by long periods of drought. It follows a mother giant hawk, an enormous herbivorous bird , and her young male calf. The mother struggles to raise her calf, fending off predators such as Dromaeosaurs and trying to teach the calf to survive on its own. The episode also follows other animals in the surroundings, including a Therizinosaurid, tyrannosaurids and iguanodontids, and the hardships they endure as the new animals from the south move in.
NEXT OF KIN
A family group of the descendants of the Apidium is down; yet another female was killed by the Troodontids that hunt them, leaving behind an orphan daughter. The males of the group, Grey and Hercules, are beginning to challenge each other for leadership, and the females are supporting Hercules rather than Grey, A bigger, more numerous group attacks, driving the focus group from their old home. Because of this, they start to migrate through the highlands of Ethiopia, searching for a new one. During their travels they meet a large stegosaurid in musth which chases them away from its territory as it tries to wow a much larger female. They settle in a area with a waterfall where many iguanodontids roam they try to scare them off but can't. However it is also home to a large allosaur type creature which kills many and drags the rest for its chicks to eat. Grey is killed in the process and using some planning they steal some of the allosaurs chicks and cause it to migrate for the safety of its chicks. That night one of the babies is stolen by a Troodontid which now rule the area without the constriction of the Allosaur. One day the female orphan is attacked by the Troodontids in full daylight when the rest rally together and try and kill the Troodontid. They settle down and some evolved descendants of the protagonist from the first episode comes and eats the lice in their fur.
SABRE TOOTH
The fifth episode shows the strange fauna of the isolated continent of South America and explores the effects of the Great American Interchange, which had happened 1.5 million years earlier. Since South America had drifted apart from Antarctica 30 million years ago, many unique dinosaurs had evolved, including a Ankylosaurus like creature , an armored armadillo-like ankylosaur with a cannon ball-sized spiked club on its tail; An edmontosaurus like dinosaur, a camel-like dinosaur with a long trunk and though not a dinosaur a large heron like pterosaur has evolved larger than the largest of the bats.
Before the continents of South America and North America collided, a 10-foot-tall predatory bear called with sabre teeth like Smilodon, had reigned as top predator. However, the great birds, migrating from the north, soon displaced them as top predators. The episode focuses on a male bear, a saber-toothed ursine, called Half Tooth, who lives a lone life in a territory of females all of their cubs are his one day two males chase him out and try to become the individuals the females mate with.
Next, the episode shows The new birds hunting down the edmontosaurs and the bears trying to protect the young from the two brothers (in vain) but they are eventually killed when they go hunting. In the background, the mammals still hunt, but give way to the birds. However, a therizinosaurid, who wanted to eat meat as diet supplement, charges the pack while the males attempted to mate, in order to eat some of the carrion. In the process, it kills the dominant rival male, enabling Half Tooth to return, kill the other male and reclaim his territory. Then he had another litter of cubs. Meanwhile the pterosaurs arrive for their winter migration.
Mammoth JOURNEY
narrator reveals that the world's climate is starting to deteriorate, bringing on an ice age. This means all animals, even the mighty titanosaurs and their symbiotic bird partners are struggling with the last of their kind living in the focus herd. One of the herd falls through a pond concealed by ice. Her sisters comfort her, and in the morning the scavengers Troodontids and humans gather gather. The herd then have no choice but to leave their fallen sister to prepare for the coming Ice Age winter. The narrator also reveals that so much water is frozen at the poles, causing sea levels to drop. A vast Ice Age forest, which today is the North Sea, supports an array of dinosaurs including a herd of titanosaurs. Also residing on the plains in summer is a new creature:
Human.
Despite having no physical adaptations for the cold, they wear animal hides to keep warm. The episode's main focus is the mammoth's 400 kilometre migration to the Alps and back in the spring. Meanwhile, two stigymoloch like dinosaurs are fighting for a harem of females, but are then ambushed by the humans who kill one of the males. As the titans migrate, one of the herd and the juveniles under her care are separated and stalked by a woolly giganotosaurus, but survive.
Upon reaching the Alps, the mother and the juveniles are reunited with the herd. Here in the valleys, one of the herd lays her eggs to return next year to raise the survivors and the birds mate with each other and a new generation is born, some leave into the Alps but many stay with their parents. The episode also focuses on the
Neanderthal, who, despite being built for the cold, is struggling as a result of the Ice Age. One of them is attacked by a Woolly Pachyrhinosaurus, but survives because of his shorter stature and thicker bones.
As the titanosaurs migrate back to the plains, they come into Neanderthal territory where the juveniles is annoyed by the mammals and one is killed by the largest of them all Cave Foxes which drag them down to their cliff home where several giant Parkosaurs watch. they arrive back in their forest where the Gigantosaurus the only thing an adult fears attacks and kills the matriarch. The humans scavenge on the carcass. The titanosaurs are revealed to be going extinct with their herd being the largest thanks to the Ice Age while their birds have a different story thanks to their big partners. The scene then changes to the Oxford Museum and the narrator reveals that "If all this has taught is anything, it's this: no species lasts forever.
BALLAD OF BIG AL
The special begins at the
University of Wyoming's Geological Museum, showing the bones of a baby prosauropod followed by an
Allosaurus (2.1 metres tall is the maximum height) named
Big Al. After the ghost of Big Al wanders the museum passing by his own skeleton and a burrow with some fossilized eggs, the film then travels back in time to 150
Mya) showing a similar nest. Al and his siblings are hiding in the burrow when they are called by their mother. She brings them to a river bank and the hatchlings start to hunt for
insects and lizards. When the mother leaves the
hatchlings temporarily, a predatory Dilephodon like mammal comes out of hiding and kills one of them (luckily, the victim was not Al).
Al is then shown at the age of two years. He tries to hunt a flock of
Dryosaurus. He has not yet learned how to ambush from his mother so he fails to kill one of the swifter, smaller dinosaurs. Later, he snatches a lizard from a branch to keep him satisfied. Al comes across a dead Deinotherium like mammal and an
Allosaurus waiting for death in a pit of sticky mud, which forms a
predator trap. Meanwhile, a two-year-old female
Allosaurus, attracted to the carcass, also gets stuck. She struggles to free herself, but fails. Al luckily avoids the same fate, because he has learnt to avoid
carrion and the large carnivores that it usually attracts. Unable to escape, the trapped
Allosaurus pair die of exhaustion, their corpses left to the bats. Al returns to his mother and his three siblings and feasts on the carcass she has caught.
Three years pass, and a herd of juvenile Prosauropods are migrating across their forest home and into the grasslands, heading for a herd to the south. Al, now 1.2 meters long, is joined by several other
Allosaurus (possibly, his siblings) and they manage to successfully panic the herd into leaving a weakened sick individual behind. But as the
Allosaurus gather for the kill, Al is struck down by the neck of the prosauropod. The pack decides to wait for a few hours until the prosauropod is brought down by heat exhaustion and his illness. Though they feed, within the hour, a five-year-old female
Allosaurus scavenges the kill. Al takes some remnants of the carcass for himself and leaves, trying to find a safer place to eat.
3 years pass by, and Al, now 1.8 metres long with the crests over his eyes reddening, is shown drinking at a pond. His presence however makes other mammals around the pond nervous and the smell of blood he brings with him puts off a pair of Deinotherium that were attempting to mate. Away from the pond, he discovers the scent of a nearby six-year-old female
Allosaurus and issues a
mating call. She is interested, but as Al attempts to mate, a Smilodon like mammal out on the prowl pack attacks and kills the female. Al is lucky enough to escape from the ensuing fight with his life, although he sustains injuries to his right arm as well as smashed ribs. Later the dry season comes, and Al is attempting to hunt a flock of rabbit like mammals as the Dryosaurus have moved away. Whilst ambushing them however, he steps on a hedgehog like mammal and kills it but then it is stuck in his foot so he ends up breaking something in his right foot in the resultant fall; he limps away the, his chances of survival as prey gets scarcer now very unlikely. As the dry season turns to a drought, Al's limp from the fall gets worse and his right middle toe -which he broke in the fall- has become badly infected. Soon, unable to hunt because of this handicap, he dies in a dried-up riverbed, where two hatchling
Allosaurus are hunting for bugs and come across his emaciated carcass where they eat his eyes and tongue and leave. He is said not to have reached full size, dying as a mature adolescent and that the process of his fossilisation was so perfect it preserved even the injuries he sustained in his lifetime including -amongst others- lumps where his ribs healed after their break and the raging infection on his middle toe even the hedgehog he stepped on. The narrator concludes the special stating how Big Al, in death, represents a frozen moment in the fast and furious life of a carnivorous dinosaur.
Now I'm going to do the worst part of WWD, Walking With Dinosaurs 3D and I'm going to remove the voices and keep it as an actual documentary
In the early cretaceous a few million years before the fourth episode of WWD a thing that was actually good and next to the western interior seaway. Patchi is the youngest and smallest in a litter of tiny baby Torosaurus like dinosaurs that are being out competed by pronghorn like mammals. Their father Bulldust the leader is the leader of the herd. Patchi is also attacked by a bird, which attempts to eat him, but he is saved by his caring mother, resulting in Patchi having a hole in his frill as an injury.
Later, Bulldust moves his herd south as well, but when they try to pass through a forest, they are forced to flee when the local Dromaeosaurs make fire to flush out some pronghorns and a forest fire erupts. Taking advantage of the chaos, a pack of dromaeosaurs attacks the scattered herd. They kill most of Patchi and Scowler's family, while their leader and alpha, Gorgon, fights and kills Bulldust while he’s trying to run away as he cares nothing about his children thanks to his kind's ability to breed like rabbits. Afterwards, Patchi's herd, now led by Bulldust's mate, combine with a female named Juniper's herd as they continue their migration. Gorgon's pack attacks them again, and in the ensuing chaos, Patchi, Scowler, Juniper (and many others) fall into a river and are swept downstream to the ocean all juveniles but Juniper, Scowler and Patchi killed in the process, with a scavenger bat following them from above. At a beach, Scowler follows a herd of rhino like mammals to find food, leaving Patchi and Juniper behind as they are scarred up and Juniper's eye is destroyed. The two make their way through a forest and eventually are able to find their herd and Scowler.
After years of making the same migration from north to south and vice versa, the leader of the herd is killed in a river by two cetans Scowler confronts his brother and his gang of friends and challenges him for a battle in exchange for leadership of the herd. Scowler, as he is much stronger and larger than Patchi, quickly gains the upper hand and defeats his brother by trapping him under a young tree before disowning him and ordering Juniper, along with the rest of the herd, to leave Patchi behind. Despondent and heartbroken, Patchi, now trapped underneath the tree and unable to do anything, attempts to accept his fate by allowing scavengers to kill and eat him but thanks to a pterosaur literally pecking out his eye while looking at a butterfly he has the rage to go out fighting.
Reinvigorated by the bat, Patchi and his friends (actually just a bunch of dragonflies that live on his back but like him despite their intelligence) escapes and fights off the scavengers, before catching up to the herd, only to find them confronted by Gorgon and her pack once more (now its gets dark) they manage to scare most of the herd and a bunch of Pronghorn like mammals into a river which causes most to drown, during the battle between Gorgon and the ceratopsians. Scowler pushes Juniper accidentally into a hole with a spike and kills her. patchi in a fit of rage fights Scowler and has his last remaining eye gouged out but he manages to push him off a cliff that was there and while Patchi looks like he's contemplating his action when he is just standing there when Gorgon and her pack kill him, meanwhile a male approaches Gorgon and drops the head of Juniper in front of her she accepts this and leaves to mate.
It then cuts to the survivors who are building up their nest and thanks to their rerouted migration which saves them and their kind from extinction from the Pronghorns. Gorgon's pack have to move away and the lovely gory ecosystem collapses a few million years after this thanks to the arrival of Brutodon which out compete the definitely not sauropod replacement mammals that look like giraffes that will become the largest creatures on earth and it ends on one of Gorgon's young evolving WWM style into the giant theropods from Nigel Marvin's adventures with the largest creatures on earth. The credits this time are of a before and after showing the area in Patchi and friends era and in Nigel marvin's adventures era showing the river area where Patchi was killed into the river area where the Brutodon laid their eggs.
