The different ages of the three Bald Eagle chicks recently hatched —the tv birds — is easy to see. The birds are on a Minnesota DNR live video feed, nest location local but unknown. The chicks were born, I believe, a day apart. All three are surviving, not always the case when a third chick hatches. Often that bird, smaller and weaker than its siblings, dies or is killed. The three in this nest look good. The feathering on the birds’ backs: one is light, one is darker, the third is darkest. I’m assuming the increasing color is indicative of age. Find them via the DNR web site.

Is it finally game on for video game adaptations?
Is there a more woebegone movie genre than the video game adaptation? This is the pantheon of "Max Payne," "Wing Commander" and "Assassin's Creed." In the 27 years since the first video game movie, "Super Mario Bros.," these adaptations have been so regularly mocked that you might think the genre was -- like a teetering fighter in "Mortal Kombat" surrounded by chants of "Finish him!" -- on its last legs.
