Colossus opened to the general public on June 29, 1978, as the tallest and fastest roller coaster in the world, and the first to feature two drops over 100 feet. During the construction, a tornado struck that caused part of the structure to collapse, but Colossus was completed on time. Construction officially commenced in August. The coaster's design process began in January 1977, and was finalized in May.Īfter a member of the design team studied Mexico's Montaña Rusa, which was the largest wooden roller coaster in the world at the time, to help plan for the project.

Because of their hardy nature and manageable size, yellow anacondas make wonderful pets for those with the necessary dedication and resources. Yellow anacondas (Eunectes notaeus) are large, semiaquatic boid snakes found in wetland systems in South America. Supremely adapted to the habitats they call home, yellow anacondas manage to dwell in a difficult world, full of competitors, predators and other dangers. An adult Yellow Anaconda has few natural predators. The Yellow Anaconda can survive long periods without prey (Reed and Rodda, 2009). The digestive system is relatively slow and the Yellow Anaconda may eat only every few days or months, depending on the size of the last prey item. Hailing from the wetlands of South America, yellow anacondas are some of the most fascinating snakes in existence. The Yellow Anaconda is considered an ambush hunter and constrictor. ![]() Black Bastards had been bootlegged by that time, but was not officially released until 2000.

Ī Black List live script reading panel at the 2018 ATX Television Festival (pictured from L–R): Moderator Franklin Leonard, with Matt Lauria, James Lafferty, Jason George, Katherine Willis, Taylor Dearden, Nick Wechsler, Tyrel Jackson Williams, and Riley Scott. On January 27, 2019, at the 2019 Sundance Film Festival, it was announced that the LGBT media advocacy group GLAAD had partnered with The Black List to create The GLAAD List, a new curated list of the most promising unmade LGBT-inclusive scripts in Hollywood. And while, as a rule, they have not yet been produced, many of them are already in production." Slate columnist David Haglund has written that the list's reputation as a champion for "beloved but challenging" works has been overstated, since "these are screenplays that are already making the Hollywood rounds. Additionally, writers whose scripts are listed often find that they are more readily hired for other jobs, even if their listed screenplays still have not been produced, such as Jim Rash and Nat Faxon, two of the writers of the screenplay for The Descendants, who had an earlier screenplay make the list. As of the 92nd Academy Awards, four of the last 10 Academy Awards for Best Picture went to scripts featured on a previous Black List, as well as 12 of the last 20 screenwriting Oscars ( Original and Adapted Screenplays). The produced films have together grossed over $30 billion, and been nominated for 241 Academy Awards and 205 Golden Globe Awards, winning 50 and 40 respectively. Of the more than 1,000 screenplays The Black List has included since 2005, 440 have been produced as theatrical films, including Argo, American Hustle, Juno, The King's Speech, Slumdog Millionaire, Spotlight, The Revenant, The Descendants, and Hell or High Water. The website states that these are not necessarily "the best" screenplays, but rather "the most liked", since it is based on a survey of studio and production company executives. It has been published every year since 2005 on the second Friday of December by Franklin Leonard, a development executive who subsequently worked at Universal Pictures and Will Smith's Overbrook Entertainment. The Black List is an annual survey of the "most-liked" motion picture screenplays not yet produced.

How to Stop Pica in Dogs: Management and Treatment When trying to identify the real reason behind your dog's pica, it's best to evaluate your furbaby about their lifestyle and environment circumstances.ĭoes your dog get enough exercise? Do they have easy access to their chews and toys or do they need to beg for it first? Do they get enough physical and mental stimulation? Do they have a healthy and proper diet on a consistent mealtime schedule? Are they stressed out? Poisoning (if your dog has swallowed a harmful substance like a household cleaning product, medicine bottles, etc.).Infection (if the non-food item a dog has ingested is dirty or contaminated).Ingesting non-food items can pose a great danger to your furbaby and they might suffer from: The other signs of pica in dogs then will greatly depend on what things or substance your furbaby has ingested. Obviously, the main symptom to look for is your dog eating non-food items regularly. Signs and Symptoms of Pica in Dogsĭoes my dog have pica? What are the signs of pica in dogs you should look for if you think your dog has pica and not just accidentally ingesting things? In order to determine if an underlying medical issue is the cause of your dog’s pica, PetMD explains that your vet may recommend doing blood, urine, stool, and other tests for proper diagnosis. Pica in dogs can also be caused by other factors like: Boredom or lack of physical and mental stimulation.To make sure the plants in and around the area where your dog is eating grass aren’t dangerous, check the ASPCA’s Animal Poison Control Center website, which maintains a list of toxic and non-toxic plants."Management and treatment for pica in dogs depend on whether your furbaby's case is a psychological one or is caused by a medical condition." ![]() Additionally, a number of common house and garden plants are toxic, which could lead to problems if your dog munches on them along with the lawn. On the chance that your dog’s pica behavior is caused by a nutritional deficiency, switching to a better dog food, especially a high-fiber variety, could help alleviate the problem.Īlthough most experts agree that grazing itself isn’t harmful, one thing to keep in mind is that certain herbicides and pesticides used on lawns can be quite toxic, especially if ingested. Try tossing a Frisbee or playing another interactive game with them, or buy them a sturdy chew toy to keep them occupied. If you suspect your dog is eating grass because they are bored, it might be beneficial to be sure they are getting enough exercise. Should I Stop My Dog from Eating Grass? If So, How? And, of course, there is also the possibility that your dog simply likes the way grass tastes or feels. Three days after putting the dog on a high-fiber diet, the owner reported that the dog stopped eating grass entirely. One published study reports on a miniature poodle that ate grass and then vomited every day for seven years. Other suggested reasons why your dog might be eating grass include improving digestion, treating intestinal worms, or fulfilling some unmet nutritional need, including the need for fiber. And grass-eating doesn’t usually lead to throwing up - less than 25% of dogs that eat grass vomit regularly after grazing. In fact, fewer than 10% of dogs seem to be sick before eating grass, according to their owners. Others dispute this idea, on the basis that dogs are not proven to be smart enough to decide to treat an upset stomach by eating grass.Įvidence suggests that most dogs that eat grass aren’t unwell beforehand, or at least they don’t seem so. Some people propose that dogs might turn to eating grass when they don’t feel well as a way to make themselves vomit, and then feel better. There are a variety of reasons your dog might be grazing on your lawn. Another survey about plant-eating dogs found that grass was the most commonly eaten plant. One small-scale study of 49 dog owners whose dogs had regular access to grass and other plants found that 79% of the dogs had eaten plants at some time. In fact, most veterinarians consider it a normal dog behavior. Sometimes pica indicates that your dog has some type of nutritional deficiency, though it is often simply a sign of boredom, especially when practiced by puppies and younger dogs.ĭogs eating grass is actually quite common (it has been observed in wild dogs, too, and may be completely natural) and this form of pica does not usually cause too many problems. Pica is the technical term for the disorder characterized by eating things that aren’t food. Are they hungry? Bored? Sick? Will eating grass hurt them?įirst, rest assured that you’re not alone in your concern, especially if your dog is eating grass and vomiting.
