Even though I might find some extremely advanced combos fascinating to watch, I'm not interested in learning them if it's near impossible to use them in a realistic gameplay scenario, such as vanilla public HoE or CD matches. I personally think of takedowns as tools, I don't care about flashiness or skill flexing. The tiniest mistake in your timing will cause the takedown to fail at least partially, as is the case for other very advanced combos. However, it's very difficult to pull off right because of the microscopic margin of error. The technique itself can be really useful if you master it, giving you an efficient way to deal with FPs without using any ammunition. An example of this is Fleshpound "melee locking".

Novak and his colleagues can't extract an intact passenger pigeon genome from museum specimens. "It's all moving forward at the speed of science," jokes Ben Novak, a project member at the University of California at Santa Cruz. But they can't say when-or even if-the bird will fly again. Two years later, on the hundredth anniversary of the species' extinction, project scientists are still hard at work. In 2012, a group of scientists launched a project now dubbed the Great Passenger Pigeon Comeback to create cloned passenger pigeons-or at least birds genetically engineered to have passenger pigeon traits. Now they have the technology to extract DNA from preserved passenger pigeons in museum collections. When Martha died, biologists didn't even know that genes are encoded in DNA. While technology spelled the doom of passenger pigeons, some scientists believe they can use technology to bring the species back. Martha, the last of her kind, was barren. But the birds proved to be poor breeders in captivity. They never saw another one in the wild again.įor the next 14 years, the species clung to existence in a few zoos. In 1900, the year in which the act was made into law, naturalists spotted a single wild passenger pigeon in Ohio. The Lacey Act would eventually help protect many species, but for the passenger pigeon it came too late. Its decline was so worrisome that Congress passed the Lacey Act, one of the first laws to protect wildlife in the United States. Soon this technology-driven slaughter was decimating the passenger pigeon. "Technology enabled the market," says Blockstein. Pigeons would be stuffed into barrels and loaded back onto the trains, which would deliver them to distant cities, where they'd be sold everywhere from open air markets to fine restaurants. The hunters weren't just killing the birds to feed their families, however. Thousands of hunters would then jump on newly built trains to ride out to wherever the pigeons had settled and start slaughtering them. "The telegraph allowed word to go out: 'The pigeons are here,'" says David Blockstein, a senior scientist at the National Council for Science and the Environment and a founder of Project Passenger Pigeon. But they didn't realize that a technological revolution was about to hit. It was hard for early naturalists to imagine that the passenger pigeon could ever become extinct. (Read " Bringing Them Back to Life" in National Geographic magazine.)Īnd whether scientists are able to bring passenger pigeons back or not, the birds may still offer lessons about keeping other species from following it into oblivion. Others are analyzing bits of passenger pigeon DNA to reconstruct its lost ways of life. One team of scientists is even trying to bring the species back from extinction, using genetic engineering and cloning. "It became the icon of extinction," says Mark Barrow, a historian at Virginia Tech and the author of Nature's Ghosts.Ī hundred years later, the passenger pigeon remains iconic and is inspiring extravagant new technological feats. Other species were also spiraling toward extinction in the late 1800s, but the destruction of the passenger pigeon happened on full public display. But they proved no match for humans, whose rapidly advancing technology drove the birds to extinction in a matter of decades. As recently as the mid-1800s, deafening flocks of billions of passenger pigeons swarmed across the eastern half of the United States. But on that first day of September a century ago, Martha no longer had to put up with such humiliations. As Joel Greenberg writes in his recent book A Feathered River Across the Sky, some threw sand into its cage to try to force it to walk around. People coming to the zoo to see the last passenger pigeon were disappointed by the bird, which barely budged off its perch. At the Cincinnati Zoo, a passenger pigeon named Martha died at the age of 29. A hundred years ago on Monday, a once-mighty species became extinct. One "entertainer" to another.Ĭapitol Police officer Brian Sicknick died protecting members of Congress from the mob inflamed by election lies. So it comes as no surprise that Trump was on the phone to Fox News literally minutes after Limbaugh breathed his last, offering a eulogy, one show horse to another. The New York Times headline and subhead writer who penned “venom” and “bigotry” in their Limbaugh appraisal will seem laudatory only to the type of people who attempt armed insurrections on federal property. Research showing that media coverage of polarization hardens consumers’ dislike of the opposite party - and Limbaugh didn’t just cover election polarization, he fostered it - his buffoonery can’t be dismissed as mere “entertainment.” His millions-mesmerizing microphone reinforced aggrieved nuttiness, the consequences of which we witnessed in early January.Įvery action spurring an equal and opposite reaction, the polarization Limbaugh promoted infected his haters after his death, with some accusing the mainstream media of whitewashing Republican “hatred and bigotry.” That’s bunk to make bunk-meiser Limbaugh proud the indictment I’ve made here comes from MSM coverage. The resulting insurrection on January 6, Limbaugh claimed, was carried out by patriots who “know that this is something that’s been arranged rather than legitimately sought and won.” Donald Trump speaks to radio talk show host Rush Limbaugh (C), while Lee Greenwood performs "God Bless The USA", at a Make America Great Again rally in Cape Girardeau, Missouri on November 5, 2018. That was all before his life-capping lie: trumpeting Trump’s delusion about a stolen election. Fox’s disability, calling a birth control advocate a “slut”. Limbaugh subsequently ambled through casual if well-advertised cruelties - mocking Michael J. The same year saw the launch of the Trump candidacy, rooted - contrary to its defenders and misguided progressives alike - not in economic need, but racial fear and white supremacy. But there are enough racists in America that as late as 2015, one-fifth of the country still doubted Obama’s birthplace. That the Clintons were killers was nutty enough to confine it to the most extreme set. During Obama’s first year in office, he declared that the new president “has yet to have to prove that he’s a citizen.”īesides being a pants-on-fire lie, the claim pushed Limbaugh’s conspiracy-theorizing into deadlier territory. It’s not a good sign when nationally broadcast postmortems include the words “racist conspiracy theory.” But Limbaugh, along with Trump, gleefully cannonballed into the birtherism pool. Yet as he discarded the entertainer disclaimer, he kept up his old distance from the truth. He admonition to speak no ill of the dead is waived in the case of those whose legacy includes serious public harm.īut as ego swelled with his wealth, girth and marriages (the wife who announced his passing from his microphone was his fourth), Limbaugh found just “an entertainer” unsatisfyingly limited.īy Barack Obama’s presidency, he was rapturously greeted at conservative confabs as a philosopher of the right, waxing definitionally about the movement’s meaning. Yet at least it put a patina of realistic humility on his social role. I remember a New York Times interview in the 1990s that noted how Limbaugh tugged the reporter’s recorder close to him to make sure it caught his words that he was just “an entertainer.” Sure, the self-description was self-serving: absolution for abdicating truth, by a man who’d plugged the conspiracy theory about the Clintons as murders. Unfortunately, the trajectory of his career arced from entertainment revolutionary to Donald Trump’s sock puppet, the Father Coughlin of 21st-century racism, fascism and sewer-level discourse.Īt first, he kept a smidgeon of perspective. If all El Rushbo had done was entertain adoring “dittoheads” and some outrage-enjoying liberals, with taunts of “feminazis” and animal lovers (playing “Born Free” to the sound of gunfire and squawking wildlife), he’d be remembered as controversial but innocuous. That I can listen to their show - and a massive menu of on-air gabbers - owes in no small part to Limbaugh, who busted the bronco of Reagan and Clinton-era conservatism to become a pioneering host of national, political radio.īut the admonition to speak no ill of the dead is waived in the case of those whose legacy includes serious public harm. Recalling Limbaugh’s mantra that he had “talent on loan from God,” they noted that the almighty had called in the loan. I listen to some talk radio hosts who indulged a bit of black humor on the news of Rush Limbaugh’s death. Facebook Email Radio talk show host and conservative commentator Rush Limbaugh speaks at "An Evenining With Rush Limbaugh" event in Novi, Michigan.

Tim Sweeney, who heads up Epic Games, said his firm's lawyers are working to take action against Twitter accounts that promote Fortnite Tokens - and called on trading platforms to perform greater due diligence. The CEO of the company behind Fortnite has reiterated that the game doesn't have an official cryptocurrency - and lambasted the exchanges that list "scam" tokens.
