...hard to know precisely when the red-winged blackbird, Agelaius phoeniceus, is about to attack. The birds tend to swoop in, hitting victims from behind.

Given the bird's size, the danger is more likely to come not from the attack itself, but from the reaction to it. For instance, a newly attacked bicyclist veers into the path of an oncoming bicycle.

...Tokuda stresses the appeal of his work to an audience of his peers: "Elderly people don't identify with school dramas," he says. "It's easier for them to relate to older-men-and-daughters-in-law series, so they tend to watch adult videos with older people in them." The veteran porn star plans to keep working until he's 80 - or older, as long as the industry will cast him. Given the bullish market for his work, he's unlikely to go without work.
