Shy teen David Rice ( Max Thieriot) has a crush on pretty Millie ( AnnaSophia Robb), who dreams of travelling the world. Claudio Carvalho, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil While in the Coliseum, David meets the jumper Griffin, who explains that the dangerous Roland Cox and his team of paladins are chasing him, and his family and friends are in danger. He decides to visit Millie in Ann Arbor and invites her to visit Rome. Eight years later, David is living in a fancy apartment in New York and having a life full of adventure, traveling to the most exotic places in the world. He decides to run away from home, moving to New York, and uses his power to rob a bank vault. Suddenly, he teleports himself to a library and discovers that he has the ability to jump anywhere he wants. David tries to retrieve the object, but the ice shatters and David falls under the ice. When David gives Millie a snow globe with the Eiffel Tower, the bully Mark Kobold throws it onto a frozen river. The teenage David does not have a good relationship with his father, and he has a crush on his schoolmate Millie Harris. He was left by his mother when he was five years old. Huggoĭavid Rice lives in Ann Arbor, Michigan. ![]() Although he doesn't want to tell her the entire truth, David also has to decide if telling her the truth would be a safer option for her than not. He also quickly figures out that bringing Millie back into his life has placed her in mortal danger. David may be further illuminated about his situation by someone from his distant past. David learns that he is not alone, that there are fellow jumpers in the world, who are at war with this man, Roland, and his well-organized, high tech and motivated group of religious fanatics, the Paladins, who believe jumpers are an aberration to be destroyed. He does so as he values his life even more now after discovering that someone is after him and seemingly trying to kill him that person who knows that he is a "jumper". He returns to Ann Arbor to reconnect with his high school friend/crush, Millie Harris, and give her the travel adventures she always wanted. He honed his abilities so that he could get away from his high school bullies and his alcoholic single father - his mother who abandoned them when David was five - by stealing money to live a lavish, adventurous, new life in New York City, with everyone from his old life believing him dead. Twenty-something David Rice has known for eight years since he was a teenager in high school in Ann Arbor, that he could teleport himself to anywhere in the world at any time, this skill which he stumbled upon at a most opportune time. ![]()

![]() ![]() ![]() I'd go back if only to frolick with the coati some more. The employees are all very gracious and polite. Taxis to Cancun from this resort are crazy expensive. It's good food, just make sure the coati don't steal from your plate! I would definitely recommend this resort to potential vacationers, along with shopping on 5th Ave. There are also little food carts in a corner of the grounds. The restaurants knew what they were doing. The buffet had a lot of options so it was really hard not to find something good to eat. The resort offers daily buffet options for breakfast, lunch and dinner, with additional restaurants available for dining with a placed reservation. Coati are an honest highlight of my trip. The resort was really awesome! We're big fans of wildlife and the outdoors this resort offers both! I never knew a coati until a herd of them ran sqeaking by. I went to this resort for a week with my wife with the intention of checking out Chichen Itza during our stay. Overall we enjoyed our stay so much and we would definitely recommend this resort to everyone. They also had entertainment in the theatre every night which was so fun to watch with our two year old. They did have music in the lobby every night but that would be done by 9 to 10pm. If you are looking to party or listen to music late into the night you won't find this here. This is definitely a family friendly resort. The water is the perfect temperature of warm and cold if you go a little deeper. The sand is white soft sand, the best I've ever seen. You couldn't even get in the water from all of it but on the third day it started to clear up and by day 5 the water was crystal clear. The only issue we had with the beach was the seaweed (sarggassum) which flooded the beach on the first 2 days. The beach was probably the best part of the resort (other than the food). You did have to get to the pool early to grab a good sunbed with shade but it was no problem for us because of we were always at the pool by 9am. The pool was very clean and spacious, with a lot of shade. The staff in all areas of the resort were so friendly and handled all of our requests immediately. The latte and cappuccinos are to die for. The Aromas Cafe is were we drank our afternoon and evening coffees. We drank everything from mojitos to margaritas and cerveas. We booked a dinner at the Toscana Italian restaurant and the food was really good but we honestly preferred the buffet. They have 3 a la carte restaurants on the resort which are by reservation. There was everything you could want at the buffet, we even had a Mexican night which was amazing. The food was delicious and there were soooo many options. We were BEYOND pleased with the Catalonia Playa Maroma. This was our first in Mexico and our first time at an all inclusive. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Our standard Photo Prints (ideal for framing) are sent same or next working day, with most other items shipped a few days later.

There have been studies on the speed and efficiency of the bird's migration that show that it is better for a hawk to arrive at its destination as early as possible. ![]() Thus, the longer the distance the earlier the bird begins its journey. The long-distance travelers tend to begin in early autumn while the short distance travelers start much later. It has been studied that there are longer migration distances than others. The autumn migrating season begins in August and ends mid-December. Different types of hawks choose separate times in each season to migrate. Like most birds, the hawk migrates in the autumn and the spring. This is due to the large number of photoreceptors in the retina (up to 1,000,000 per square mm in Buteo, compared to 200,000 in humans), a high number of nerves connecting these receptors to the brain, and an indented fovea, which magnifies the central portion of the visual field. Other adaptations allow for the detection of polarised light or magnetic fields. These give hawks the ability to perceive not only the visible range but also ultraviolet light. Hawks, like most birds, are tetrachromats having four types of colour receptors in the eye. The hawk is very intelligent towards humans and other hawks. Based on this scale, hawks were named among the most intelligent birds. In February 2005, Canadian ornithologist Louis Lefebvre announced a method of measuring avian " IQ" by measuring their innovation in feeding habits. Problems playing this file? See media help. Lerner and Mindell (2005) proposed placing those into separate subfamilies (Aquilinae, Haliaaetinae), leaving only the buteonine hawks/buzzards in Buteoninae. Traditionally this subfamily also includes eagles and sea-eagles. Buteo is the type genus of the subfamily Buteoninae. ![]() The " Buteogallus group" are also called hawks, with the exception of the solitary eagles. Proposed new genera Morphnarchus, Rupornis, and Pseudastur are formed from members of Buteo and Leucopternis. Members of this group have also been called "hawk-buzzards". The " Buteo group" includes genera Buteo, Parabuteo, Geranoetus, and most of Leucopternis. Melierax (chanting goshawks) may be included in the subfamily, or given a subfamily of its own.Įrythrotriorchis (the red and chestnut-shouldered goshawks) is traditionally included in Accipitridae, but is possibly a convergent genus from an unrelated group (see red goshawk taxonomy). The subfamily Accipitrinae contains Accipiter it also contains genera Micronisus (Gabar goshawk), Urotriorchis (long-tailed hawk), and Megatriorchis (Doria's goshawk). ![]() They are also called "hen-hawks", or "wood-hawks" because of their woodland habitat. The accipitrine hawks generally hunt birds as their primary prey. Pliny numbered sixteen kinds of hawks, but named only aigithos, epileios, kenchrēïs (kestrel), kybindis, and triorchēs (buzzard). Īristotle listed eleven types of ἱέρακες ( hierakes, hawks, singular ἱέραξ hierax): aisalōn (merlin), asterias, hypotriorchēs, kirkos, leios, perkos, phassophonos, phrynologos, pternis, spizias, and triorchēs. For example, some people may call an osprey a " fish hawk" or a peregrine falcon a " duck hawk".įalconry was once called "hawking" and any bird used for falconry could be referred to as a hawk. The common names of some birds include the term "hawk", reflecting traditional usage rather than taxonomy. Ī Red-tailed hawk ( Buteo jamaicensis), a member of the Buteo group To confuse things further, some authors use "hawk" generally for any small to medium Accipitrid that is not an eagle. The term "true hawk" is sometimes used for the accipitrine hawks in regions where buzzard is preferred for the buteonine hawks.Īll these groups are members of the family Accipitridae, which includes the hawks and buzzards as well as kites, harriers and eagles. The terms accipitrine hawk and buteonine hawk are used to distinguish between the types in regions where hawk applies to both. Buteos descend or pounce on their prey rather than hunting in a fast horizontal pursuit. They are relatively larger-winged, shorter-tailed and fly further distances in open areas than accipiters. Generally, buteos have broad wings and sturdy builds. In America, members of the Buteo group are also called hawks this group is called buzzards in other parts of the world.They hunt by dashing suddenly from a concealed perch. This subfamily are mainly woodland birds with long tails and high visual acuity. The subfamily Accipitrinae includes goshawks, sparrowhawks, sharp-shinned hawks and others.They are widely distributed and are found on all continents except Antarctica. Hawks are birds of prey of the family Accipitridae. Sharp-shinned hawk, a small member of the Accipitrinae subfamily ![]() ![]() ![]() Most home improvement stores, such as Lowes and Home Depot, sell both 3-prong and 4-prong dryer cables for about $20-$25 bucks. There are a couple of different scenarios ways workarounds, one of which is to purchase a new dryer cord. The good news is that you don’t have to purchase a new dryer if the current outlet in your home doesn’t match. This eliminates the possibility for a ground current traveling to the machine, as it features a separate return path for unused power. The more recent 4-prong dryer cords feature two hot wires, a neutral wire and a ground wire. If a current happened to make its way onto the ground wire, it could travel up to the dryer. 3-prong dryer cords contain two ‘hot’ wires along with a third wire that contained both the ground and neutral wire. So, why did the NEC make the decision to switch from 3-prong to 4-prong dryer outlets in new homes? Although the old 3-prong outlets were effective at providing power to dryers, they had one major flaw: the ground and neutral wires were grouped together, creating the potential for shock. Existing homes may still use 3-prong outlets, as the NEC changes are limited strictly to new homes. It wasn’t until 1996 when the National Electrical Code (NEC) was updated to require 4-prong dryer outlets in all new homes. Nearly all homes built before this time featured either a 3-prong outlet or range outlet (slightly different than a typical 3-prong dryer outlet). Up until the mid-1990s, 3-prong outlets were the standard used in American homes. In an effort to shed some light on this subject, we’re going to discuss the purpose of these cords and why there’s a growing popularity for 4-prong cables. Unfortunately, few people understand the difference between 3-prong and 4-prong dryer cords. Whether you move into a new home that has a different outlet or purchase a new dryer with a different power cord, this is an all-too-common scenario. A newer dryer run on a 3-prong system is an electrical hazard at best, even if nothing goes wrong, and a disaster if there is a short or loose wire.Most homeowners have run into a problem with trying to hook a 3-prong dryer cord up to a 4-prong outlet, or vice-versa, at one point or another. Never fall for the big box store “handyman fix” and simply replace the plug attached to your dryer! This is against National Electrical Code standards and while it may be a quick and easy fix, its a risky move. The solution is to hire a local licensed electrician to install a new dedicated circuit and 4-prong outlet for your dryer so you can safely plug it in. Unfortunately, many homes still have obsolete (and dangerous) 3-prong dryer outlets. So, if there is ever a problem inside the dryer, the electricity gets diverted away from the dryer frame into the ground, which generally causes the breaker to trip in the meantime and prevents any additional electricity from flowing into the dryer. This wire provides a solid path from the metal frame of the dryer back to the panel and then outside to disperse safely into the earth. ![]() This problem was solved with the addition of the fourth wire (a ground). Potential current could not flow back to the panel through the bare wire and instead would flow through unsuspecting home owners. ![]() This created problems because when the bare wire became loose or there was damage to the neutral line coming into the home, the dryer could become one large metal electrocuting device. The bare wire was used as a ground and a neutral conductor. You went to plug in your new dryer and, oddly, the plug did not fit! Your brand new appliance was suddenly nothing more than a useless (although fancy) ornament and you were looking at spending even more money to make it work.īefore 1996 dryers were wired with three conductors (two “hot” wires and one bare wire). Your savings account was a bit lighter, but your laundry room had gotten an instant face lift and you would soon have dry clothes again. Soon you had a shiny new dryer in your home, ready to go. ![]() Did it happen to you?
