It also may be found in deciduous groves in the coniferous forest zone. The range extends throughout the mountains of the western U.S. and up into western Canada. The white stripe above the eye distinguishes this bird from the solid black cap of the black-capped chickadee which is an occasional resident in New Mexico's northern mountains. A black bib covers the neck and the belly is white and the back uniformly gray. Mountain chickadees forage in trees and shrubs for caterpillars, beetles, wasps, and other insects, as well as spi- ders and seeds. They are often seen hang- ing upside down while foraging and will visit bird feeders. These birds nest in natural dens and woodpecker holes, which they may work on to enlarge. They will also use nest boxes. The male will bring food to the female on the nest and later both parents will feed the juveniles. Mountain chickadees will create food stores when they encounter abundant sources, such as at a feeder or during an infestation of pine bark beetles. A chick- adee has been found in studies of ener- getics to require about 10 calories per day, which corresponds to about 1/3 of an ounce of insects or about 1/20 ounce of pine seeds. The Audubon Society lists the current status of mountain chickadees as stable, with habitat losses expected around the periphery of the range as the climate warms in the future. Wildfires destroy coniferous forests and increasing spring heat is detrimental to young nestlings. The oldest chickadee recorded in the wild was a 10 year old in Utah.

  • How to Tell If You're Being Canceled Nick Gillespie | Reason.Com | Dec
    CL&L | 2021 Winter | Kessler | Freedom of Expression and "Cancel Culture" | for Feb 9 | Page 1 How To Tell If You're Being Canceled Nick Gillespie | Reason.com | Dec 2020 Issue In 1993, Jonathan Rauch wrote Kindly Inquisitors: The New Attacks on Free Thought, an influential defense of free speech and open inquiry that was excerpted in Reason. The book took aim at would-be censors on campus and off and made a staunch case for the virtues of radical speech. Reviewing Rauch's book in The New York Times, critic Michiko Kakutani wrote that "what sets his study apart is his attempt to situate recent developments in a long-range historical perspective and to defend the system of free intellectual inquiry as a socially productive method of channeling prejudice." Nearly 30 years later, attacks on free thought have persisted and in some ways become even more pervasive as cancel culture has become part of the American lexicon. We live in a world where a Boeing executive was forced to resign over a 33-year-old article opposing the idea of women in combat and a respected art curator was pushed out of the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art for saying he would "definitely still continue to collect white artists." Earlier this summer, the editor of The New York Times opinion page left his job after publishing an article by Sen. Tom Cotton (R–Ark.). What, exactly, does it mean to be canceled? Is free thought under unprecedented attack? And if it is, what's driving the repression? Rauch, a senior fellow in governance studies at the Brookings Institution who is working on a book tentatively titled The Constitution of Knowledge, spoke to Reason's Nick Gillespie to answer those questions and discuss the best way to engage today's censors and cancelers.

  • Big Tech Bankrolls Sedition Caucus
    Big Tech Bankrolls the Sedition Caucus Since 2016, Big Tech PACs and Employees Have Given Nearly $2 Million to Lawmakers Who Voted to Challenge the Presidential Election By Jane Chung and Mike Tanglis January 21, 2021 Big Tech companies rushed to distance themselves from this month’s attempted coup by “deplatforming” then-President Donald Trump and accounts and services, such as Parler, associated with the insurrection. Also in response to the insurrection, all of the Big Tech companies with corporate PACs (Amazon, Facebook, Google, and Microsoft) have announced a halt in their direct campaign contributions to Members of Congress. While Amazon committed to freezing spending on the Republican election objectors, the three other corporations have announced blanket bans: Facebook has paused PAC spending for at least this quarter, while Google and Microsoft announced indefinite pauses while they review their policies. Additionally, CEOs of the five Big Tech companies (Amazon, Apple, Facebook, Google, and Microsoft) made both public and private statements addressing the insurrection. Apple’s CEO, Tim Cook, tweeted, “Today marks a sad and shameful chapter in our nation’s history. Those responsible for this insurrection should be held to account.” Mark Zuckerberg reportedly sent an email to Facebook employees, writing, "The peaceful transition of power is critical to the functioning of democracy, and we need our political leaders to lead Political action committees by example and put the nation first." Also in an and employees of Big Tech internal staff email, Google CEO Sundar Pichai companies have contributed wrote, “The lawlessness and violence occurring on Capitol Hill today is the antithesis of democracy and nearly $2 million to the 147 we strongly condemn it.” Microsoft CEO Satya members of Congress who Nadella failed to provide original commentary, voted to challenge the instead retweeting a statement from the Business electoral college results.

Since we're live on Fox, let me take this opportunity to address directly the Fox audience. We have two United States senators in Georgia who have blatantly used their offices to enrich themselves. This is beyond partisanship. The reason, to your question, that I talk so much about health and jobs and justice for all the people is that we can unite behind that program. Jon Ossoff: We've lost nine rural hospitals in Georgia in 10 years. We can reopen them. We can invest in infrastructure to build jobs, revitalize our communities, create opportunity, raise the minimum wage so that people doing an honest week's work cannot just survive, but can thrive and, yes, pass landmark, civil rights, and voting rights legislation to secure equal justice for all. I humbly and respectfully request the support of everyone who is tuned in on Fox right now, and I'd love for you to log on to ElectJohn, elect J-O-N dot com. That's elect J-O-N dot com. Make a contribution to our efforts here in Georgia. Speaker 2: One more quick one while we've got you.

Reverend Warnock addressed this issue a year. Here's the bottom line: Kelly Loeffler has been campaigning with a Klansman.

He was later identified as Jake Angeli, a devout adherent of the QAnon conspiracy theory, which posits that the US government is run by a cabal of devil-worshipping paedophiles engaged in a secret war against the heroic President Donald Trump. As a spear-carrying Mr Angeli paraded around one of the most hallowed spaces in American democracy like a drunk at a Christmas party, a fellow marauder, Richard “Bigo” Barnett, propped his boots on the desk of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and reclined in her chair. Mr Barnett had previously claimed on social media that he was ready to spill blood to overturn a US election he believed had been stolen from Mr Trump. On Wednesday, he scribbled a note to Ms Pelosi reading: “Nancy, Bigo was here, you bitch.” Outside, among thousands of rioters besieging the Capitol, a woman identifying herself as “Elizabeth from Knoxville” wiped what she claimed was pepper spray from her eyes as she explained to a reporter the objective: “We’re storming the Capitol.
