Thanksgiving Special - The Gobbling Turkey: More Than a Thanksgiving Food

Well, wouldn't you know it? Today's Thanksgiving and I've got a great article for this week! But first, let's look at our “days till” section and my movie update.

It is: THANKSGIVING DAY!!!
It is: 27 days till Christmas
It is: 34 days till New Years

There isn't much to say about movies I've been writing about as they progress. But there is a little newsflash for the upcoming movie Jurassic World (initially called Jurassic Park IV). For the past several months, Jurassic Park fans have been questioning whether or not the upcoming film is going to be a reboot or remake of the first JP movie thanks to a comment made by Sam Neil (Alan Grant in the first and third movies). After all of the news that's revealed concerning this movie, it's been pretty unlikely that JW is in fact a remake. But we haven't been able to know for sure . . . until yesterday! A fan asked the film's director, Colin Trevorrow via Twitter if the film would be a remake and the truth is . . . it's NOT a reboot! Here's the tweet below:
"@pfcbains916 Reboot is a strong word. This is a new sci-fi terror adventure set 22 years after the horrific events of Jurassic Park."
I don't know about you, but I think it's great that we finally are 100% sure that we can look forward to a new movie and not a remake of the first one. Personally, I think it's far too soon for a remake of the first movie. I simply can't wait for June 2015 comes around!

Not really an update, but here's a new trailer for the movie coming out this year called Walking with Dinosaurs: The 3D Movie:


Now let's get to my nonfiction article for this week:

Thanksgiving is normally a time of giving thanks and eating. There's one meal item that just about everyone eats; I'm talking about, a bird loved by millions – Meleagris gallopavo, otherwise known as the turkey. This bird is a common species that is found all over the United States. When my family was living in North Carolina, Vermont and New York (yeah, my family's lived a lot of places in my time), we often saw flocks of these birds on their search for food, often just outside out house. Despite the popularity of the turkey, many myths have been made up about these birds and a lot of people don't know much about these birds except the fact that it tastes really good. So let's learn more about America's favorite bird! (Next to the bald eagle, perhaps).

The is often thought of as just Thanksgiving dinner. But there's so much about the turkey that most people don't know. Read on to learn more about the turkey!
The turkey (also known as the wild turkey) is in the Phasianid family, which also contains chickens, pheasants, partridges, junglefowls, quails and peacocks. All these birds are probably in same baramin, also called a “created kind” – one of the original created kinds of animals God made. Being a bird, God created the first member of the Phasianid family on Day 5 of the Creation week recorded in Genesis chapter one (remember that it says “every winged fowl”). It might also be handy to know that the domestic turkey is a descendant of their wild ancestors. However, we're mainly going to talk about the wild turkey today. There's a lot more to these simple-looking birds than what meets the eye. (For instance, did you know that it's a myth that turkeys hold their heads up when its raining so that they drown?) So what makes a turkey a turkey?

Turkeys are known for their characteristic red and/or bluish heads and the fleshy growth on their beaks, known as a "snood".
Well, to start it off, the turkey has a long legs, a feathery body, a relatively small head and beak and, on males, one of the most noticeable features – that fleshy growth on a male turkey's (or tom's) beak. That “fleshy growth” is called a snood. A tom gets up to 49 inches long and weighs 11-24 pounds. A female turkey, also called a hen, stretches 30-37 inches long and weighs 5.5-12 pounds. Toms and hens have quite a few differences between each other. As you might have guessed based on the size and weight estimates mentioned above, toms are larger than hens. Toms are also the only ones to have a snood. The turkey also has the second heaviest weight of any North American bird. Did you know that turkeys also have the amazing ability to change the color of their skin according to their mood? For instance, if the head and neck are rather white, that means that the turkey is excited. The color of a turkey's skin can range from brilliant shades of red, blue and white.

The reddish-brown color represents where wild turkeys live.
Domestic turkey's are plump birds and can't fly. Wild turkeys, however, are agile fliers. Another interesting fact you might not have known about these birds is that they're omnivores, eating a variety of things they find on the ground. Some foods they eat are nuts, seeds, berries, roots, grasses and insects. Sometimes turkeys have been known to consume amphibians and small reptiles (e.g. lizards and snakes)! That's what I call a varied diet! If you want to watch wild turkeys feeding, the best time to be on the lookout for them would be early in the morning or in the late afternoon because these are their favorite times to feed. Turkeys sometimes can be found alone, but they are generally social birds, roaming their range in relatively small flocks.

This flock of both toms and hens is foraging.
Turkeys are one of many species of animals that are polygamous. This is a fancy term that means one male will mate with as many hens as they can. Turkey courtship starts in March and April and this is when toms like to strut their stuff . . . literally! When trying to attract hens, a male turkey will puff out their feathers, drag their wings and, much like a peacock, they'll fan out their tail feathers. This sort of behavior is also known as strutting. After mating season is over, it is time for hens to build and nest and lay the next generation of turkeys. Normally laying 10-14 eggs over a period of 10-14 days (they most often lay one egg per day) in a shallow depression in the dirt covered in woody vegetation, the eggs take at least 28 days to hatch. Soon, it's time for the eggs to hatch! Baby turkey's are called poults, and even though they can leave the nest 12-24 hours after hatching, they'll continue to follow their mother around for four to five months as they mature.

In this photo, we can see a mother turkey with her poults. Aren't they cute?
It's a plain fact – turkeys are found delectable to many different species of animals at just about every stage of life! Poults and eggs are often picked off by opposums, raccoons, skunks, foxes, birds of prey, groundhogs (unbelievable, right?), other rodents and snakes . . . and those are just predators of the young! Predators of both young and adult turkeys include coyotes, bobcats, mountain lions, eagles, great horned owls, domestic dogs and (especially in the fall) humans! Humans are actually the top predators of these large birds; so much so that we've domesticated these birds to meet the demand. When faced with danger, most turkeys will run away rather than fly (though they'll fly at times for short distances), but when push comes to shove, turkeys can defend themselves. Large toms especially can be extremely aggressive toward predators; when faced with danger, they can fight with the spurs on the back of their legs, bite with their beaks and bump their large bodies against predators. Many small to mid-sized mammals are deterred by a turkey's defense methods. So long as a human doesn't have a gun, a large turkey will also occasionally fight off a human being, especially where natural habitats are rare. So if you see turkeys in the wild, it's best to give them space and let them forage, undisturbed.

The turkey really is an amazing bird!
The turkey is quite a survivor. And for good reason – they're smarter, have more complex behavior than we give them credit for and can even put up a good fight at times. So this Thanksgiving, instead of merely thinking of the main course of your Thanksgiving's Day meal as good food, but think of it as the amazing, un-dumb and beautifully designed bird God created it to be!

The First Thanksgiving

Happy early Thanksgiving, my readers! I can't believe Thanksgiving's almost here already! Time has flown by so fast . . . scratch that, the year has flown by so fast! Soon we'll be doing the Christmas-thing. Along with an update on Jurassic World, I do have a photo taken during the filming of Dolphin Tale 2 (which I believe they're still filming at this moment) and an announcement to share about what my family's doing. But first, let's look at our “days till” section:

It is: 7 days till Thanksgiving
It is: 34 days till Christmas
It is: 41 days till New Year's

Lately, all we've been getting concerning news for the upcoming film known as Jurassic World (which used to be called Jurassic Park IV) is casting rumors (I haven't posted most of them because, frankly, I'm waiting to see if they're true before I do so). I don't know about you, but I'm finding the casting rumors to be getting kind of old. I mean, come on! Let's see some news about confirmed actors or, better yet, the movie's dinosaurs. I mean, what's Jurassic Park without dinosaurs? Well, for those of you who are also tired of casting rumors, you're prayers have been answered - during a recent interview, the film's dinosaur-consultant Jack Horner has re-affirmed not only that the film is in the works, but also that the "new, scary dinosaur" he's been teasing us about since last spring is still in the movie (that is, it wasn't removed with script revisions).
Click here to see the whole interview on YouTube. We still don't know what the new dinosaur is, but I've got my eye on Troodon from Jurassic Park: The Game. Many other fans have the same idea as I do.

A ferocious pack of these killer Troodon could definitely fit the bill of the "new, scary dinosaur" in Jurassic World.
That's not the only piece of news: ever since we've known that the movie has been in development, many fans have wondered over whether the new movie would be a remake of the first one or what. But thanks to a an interview the film's visual consultant Rick Carter by Comingsoon.net (and the facts that the film's name was changed to Jurassic World and that the film's director has said he wants to make a movie that honors the ones that went before), we're 100% positive that it's an actual sequel. Here's what Carter says,
"I came into that one as a visual consultant," he says. "I just worked for four months to get it going. To try and visualize where this could go next and make sure it had some the same -- literally the same -- DNA of the previous movies. Ed Verreaux is the production designer on that one. He did the third 'Jurassic Park'. We've worked together going all the way back to 'Back to the Future'. It's a real hand-off between the two of us. He's the production designer and the director's a new director named Colin Trevorrow. He's a big, big talent."
The fact that the film has the same "DNA" as the first three is terrific news! Remember, the film comes out on June 12, 2015, so mark your calendars! Now if we could only do something to eliminate those casting rumors . . . 

Here's a little update on the movie coming out this year called Walking with Dinosaurs: The 3D Movie. A new trailer has been released, please enjoy:


As anyone who's been reading my past few articles knows, Dolphin Tale 2 has been in the filming process since October and is due to be released in September 14, 2014. Here are some photos from and during filming of this film I discovered from 15-year old Dolphin Tale actress Cozi Zuehlsdorff's blog:


"Due to budget cuts on Winter had to be replaced with this inflatable dolphin. (don't cry, I'm joking)" Cozi Zuehlsdorff, 2013
"Well, almost made me drown from laughter today. Don't know whether to thank him or smack him." Cozi Zuehlsdorff, 2013
Now as for the news of what my family's been doing . . . since January, my family and I have been working on a brand new production called “Meet the Cheatham's”. This play will be the second one we've ever produced and is about a family named the Cheatham's (hence the name of the production). The four members of the Cheatum family: Dewey (do we), Iotta (I outta), Howee (how we), Yugotta (you gotta) Cheatham (Cheat 'em, pun intended) each have their own successful business and do whatever it takes to make a sale, even if it involves cheating people, hence their family name. During the upcoming Christmas season, they plan to make more money than ever. My character, Howee Cheatham, is a successful travel agent who owns Cheatham's Travel Agency and likes to send people to the worst possible places to go during the holidays because those places pay more commission. I don't want to give away the whole play, but all this changes when the father of the family, Dewey, gets a call from a local pastor and the Cheatham's lives are changed forever as they learn what's really important during this time of year – that it's not about presents, or making money, but about Christ Jesus Himself. This play is going to be a shocking revelation not only for unbelievers, but Christians who see this play as well. If you're interested in seeing this play, you'll be able to “Meet the Cheatham's” as First South Baptist Church in Utah and at 11:00 a.m. Mountain Time on November 24, 2013. Hope to see you there!

Without further ado, let's take a look at Joy's latest article:

Hey readers! The first thanksgiving may be a surprise to you! You've already imagined the feast with corn and turkeys because that's what really happened, right? Not! For starters, when the pilgrims invited the Indians . . . oops! My bad! The pilgrims didn't exactly invite Indians. This is a common misunderstanding made by many. In fact, Indians lived many thousands of miles away in Asia. The correct term for the "Indians" the pilgrims invited to the feast is actually Native Americans. Did you know that turkey may have not been served at the first Thanksgiving; corn on the cob and pumpkin pie weren't included on their menu either! The only foods we know were present at the First Thanksgiving were wildfowl (not specifically turkey; it is more likely they ate goose or duck), corn in the form of bread or porridge, various kinds of seafood and deer. We also know they didn't eat with forks. Why? Because forks weren't even invented yet! What other myths have we learned about Thanksgiving that are just plain incorrect? Read on to find out!

This is how the First Thanksgiving is normally depicted, but the real one was anything but! Continue reading to learn what the real First Thanksgiving was like!
Get this, the pilgrims did not even have a Thanksgiving feast the next year. The next Thanksgiving celebration was a hundred years later. It was to celebrate their victory of the Native Americans. Imagine that! They could very well have been celebrating over the feat of the very Native Americans who had attended their feast the first time! Thanksgiving is not all that we thought it was.

Turkey - a staple Thanksgiving delight - probably wasn't served at the First Thanksgiving! Neither were potatoes, pie, pears or cranberries . . . go figure!
However, after many years, it has changed into the perfect holiday for this time of year. A time where both family, friends - and even enemies - find time to gather together and remember all the things they are thankful for. This holiday is now a time of sharing and gratefulness; greed barely takes place here. So, what are you thankful for?

Thanks for stopping by today. Be sure to stop by next week where, since it's Thanksgiving, we'll be doing a gobbling-ly fun article! (Did I just reveal the focus of next week's article?)

The Dueling Dinosaurs

Hi everyone! I don't have any updates concerning the movies I've been writing about, so we'll go directly to the article I've written for this week right after:

It is: 14 days till Thanksgiving
It is: 42 days till Christmas
It is: 49 days till January 1, 2014

Without further ado, here's my article that I promised:

The year was 2006 when an amazing fossil discovery, possibly one of the most amazing fossil discoveries ever made, was uncovered in the badlands of Montana. On Mary Ann and Lige Murray's Montana ranch were the ancient fossil remains of dinosaurs, but upon their discovery, it was obvious that this was no obvious dinosaur find! First of all, you might like to know that when scientists find dinosaur skeletons, they don't normally find them articulated (that is, aligned in the order they were in life); they're normally found in a dismantled array of broken fossils and the skeleton is normally not complete. Often times, paleontologists only have a few fossil teeth or a few bones or a fossilized skull to go by. When Therizinosaurus, a large herbivorous theropod (that's the group with mostly carnivorous dinosaurs) was discovered, scientists only found the claws of this beast and accidentally classified the creature as a giant turtle!

This was not the case with these new dinosaurs that we're going to talk about! In the ground were not one, but two dinosaurs in the exact same location . . . no really, their bodies were partially intertwined! One was a theropod from the tyrannosaur family, possibly Nanotyrannus, and the other was an unidentified species of ceratopsian or horned dinosaur. Perhaps this was a new species! But that's not what drew the most excitement – most of the excitement was from the mere fact that both animals were not only articulated, but intertwined as if they had interacted in life! These two dinosaurs had probably died in the middle of a fight. This isn't the first case when two species of dinosaurs were found together; in the 1970's, the fossilized skeletons of a Velociraptor and a ceratopsian called Protoceratops were found locked in a deadly fight and died caught in the act. The new specimen however, referred to as “The Dueling Dinosaurs”, is of much larger dinosaurs. Yet, despite the amazing state of this find, it was rather ignored until earlier this year where it's attracted lots of attention from the press lately. Before we get into that though, let's take a closer look at what many scientists hope to discover with these finds.
Here's a photo of the dueling dinosaurs; two creatures probably caught in a deadly fight.
First, this amazing find could finally settle a really old debate concerning Nanotyrannus and its larger and far more popular cousin, Tyrannosaurus rex. Many scientists believe that Tyrannosaurus changed as it matured; when it was younger, a baby T. rex would have been much more lanky in proportion to body size, would have had a longer snout and had a faster speed than the adult. The discovery of Nanotyrannus meant to some scientists that they'd actually discovered a juvenile T. rex instead of a new species. Before the “Dueling Dinosaurs” discovery, only two specimens of Nanotyrannus had ever been discovered, and they are both juveniles at only around 15 feet long. The new specimen is estimated to be 30 feet in length. So after the scientists actually can thoroughly study the fossils and can classify it as a Nanotyrannus, then it might be proven that Nanotyrannus was its own species after all and only a cousin to T. rex. Even if they can't find this out, many scientists feel that the other two specimens of Nanotyrannus are too different from an adult T. rex to be a juvenile of T. rex.
"The Dueling Dinosaurs" specimens might solve the mystery as to whether Nanotyrannus is its own species or a juvenile T. rex.
Another question that must be dealt with concerning this find is how on earth these two dinosaurs died together in the first place. One thing we know for sure is that they wouldn't just drop dead in the open and expect to become fossilized! The reason why fossilization doesn't work that way is because of numerous reasons. First of all, when exposed to the elements, dead animals will quickly rot and decay and leave nothing but dust. Not to mention the fact that there are plenty of animals that will happily scavenge from animal carcasses, also not giving them the chance to fossilize. For an animal to become fossilized, it has to be buried very quickly. Evolutionists, who date these fossils at 66 million years old, still often scratch their heads as to why so many animals fossilized so long ago. Is there another alternative with an answer as to why “The Dueling Dinosaurs” fossilized?
When animals die, they normally decompose or get eaten; in order to fossilize, they needed to be buried quickly.
As a believer in God's Word, there's one thing that came to my mind the first time I read about this extraordinary discovery. These dinosaurs were killed and buried in Noah's Flood. Noah's Flood was the most catastrophic time in earth's history and could have easily killed both creatures in the middle of their possible struggle. But how much will scientists be able to learn about these dinosaurs?

When the dinosaurs were unearthed, they remained encased in the block of rock they were found in and they didn't get any attention until earlier this year. However, that's not where this story ends! The fossils were uncovered by non-professional fossil hunters and so they don't own the fossils – no one technically does! What was decided to become of these amazing fossils? Well, it turns out that these particular fossils are going to be in an upcoming auction! That's right! People with big money to spend will be able to hope to buy “The Dueling Dinosaurs”. This also means that there's a good chance that the fossils will go to a private fossil collector and the worry among many paleontologists is that if they go to a private collector and the private collector doesn't donate the fossils to a museum, scientists won't be able to study them thoroughly and won't be able to learn as much as they can from these beautifully preserved dinosaurs. And to make matters worse, these dinosaurs are predicted to break the record for the most expensive dinosaurs ever sold, breaking the record of the auction-sold skeleton of a Tyrannosaurus rex sold to a museum named Sue for around $7,000,000! “The Dueling Dinosaurs” are expected to be sold for around $9,000,000 dollars! WAY more than I can afford; otherwise I'd be happy to buy the specimens myself and donate them to a museum.

I for one hope that a museum can rally up enough money to buy the fossils or that a generous buyer donates the specimens to the museum, or else these dinosaurs might in fact go extinct twice; the first time being when they died and the second time when they get sold and fade into obscurity because we might not get to learn anything from these fossils. Let's hope and pray that these dinosaurs make it to a good museum where they can be studied, because these fossils can help us unlock the mysteries surrounding some of the most magnificent animals ever to walk the earth.
The "Dueling Dinosaurs" forever entombed in stone.

The Food That We Thought Came From Somewhere Else



How did you all enjoy your Harvest Day (aka Halloween, aka Free Candy Night)? My sister, Mom, aunt, cousin, second-cousin and I went to a Harvest Festival at a nearby church that my relatives go to. There were plenty of games, a raffle (my aunt won a free car wash) and of course, CANDY! It was all fun. But now it's time for fall to proceed and another one of my favorite holidays to come around: Thanksgiving! Let's see how many days it is until a few certain holidays:

It is: 21 days till Thanksgiving
It is: 28 days till St. Nicholas Day
It is: 48 days till Christmas
It is: 53 days till New Year's

Now, I haven't learned of anything news worthy lately in terms of movies. BUT! I do have some interesting news to share concerning an area I haven't done much on this website: recent fossil discoveries! I'll share more about it next week.

Like I said before, there's no movie updates, but I've found a few photos from Dolphin Tale 2's filming process. Both of them include the legendary, shark-attacked Hawaiian surfer Bethany Hamilton.

A dolphin, Bethany Hamilton (center) and her husband Adam Dirks (right).
Actress Cozi Zuehlsdorff (left) and Bethany Hamilton (right) at the Clearwater Marine Aquarium.
I found the bottom photo on Cozi Zuehlsdorff's twitter page. (For those of you who don't know, Cozi Zuehlsdorff is played Hazel Haskett in Dolphin Tale and Dolphin Tale 2) I honestly can't wait for this movie to come out!

This week, we'll take a look at my co-author's, Joy's, new article. Unlike most articles, this article is written from the perspective of Lizzy the Lizard, a writer Joy created to write for one of our sister sites, Smiley's News:


Hello again it's Lizzy and all this talk about food was making me hungry, so then I got to thinking about where most of our food comes from . . . er, let me rephrase that into: where was the food we originally thought came from one place really made? Okay let me explain, here's an example. You know that Chinese food that you get here in America? Well guess what - it's not really Chinese food! The lo main you eat...it's actually left overs of whatever is there! Lo main means leftovers in China!!! Crazy right? Get this, fortune cookies really didn't come from China! They came from here in the US in Chinatown!
Fortune cookies weren't really from China! Read on to find out what else isn't from where we think it's from.
Yep the food you eat could have a rumored origin. Spaghetti for instance (my favorite) is not from Italy! It actually came from none other than China! China has a reputation for their amazing ideas and technology. They invented paper and gun powder. However, this article is not about inventions, but food. Speaking of inventions and food . . . did you know that chocolate chip cookies, potato chips, raisins, ice cream cones, cornflakes and popsicles were all made by accident? I'm pretty sure Mr. Smiley mentioned the chocolate chip cookies in one of his reports about accidental inventions. Chocolate chips cookies were invented one day when someone was baking chocolate and found out that the semi-sweet bar chunks did not melt but rather clumped together in the dough as it baked.
I bet you can already guess how raisins were made. Surprisingly they were discovered 1490 B.C by Egyptians!! They found dried out grape vines and thought they were old and inedible however some people tried them and discovered that they were delicious! Oh, and how about ice cream cones . . . but you don't know how they got started. Well it turns out that an ice cream vendor ran out of cups for his ice cream. Syrian Ernest Hamwi, decided to help by putting the ice cream in his waffle pastry. Boom -Instant success! That just shows that the food you eat could very well have been discovered somewhere else and by mistakes. Aren't mistakes wonderful? Not really, but hey, maybe you'll end up accidentally inventing something yourself!

Lo mein is actually just a mixture of leftover food! Isn't it amazing what we learn about food when we look at its origins!
