Face looks too pale for a spotted owl. Lacks the white x. Also habitat…seeing one in a residential area means almost certainly a barred. You’re seeing its back which can look pretty spotted on a barred owl.

The eclipse is more dangerous actually… The visible light is reduced so your pupil expands. But a lot of UV light comes from the corona of the sun which isn’t blocked during the eclipse. So your pupils are more open allowing in more of the harmful UV light. And to add to it, your eyes don’t realize they are being harmed by UV light without the visible so you don’t have that impulse to look away.
They’re overly clear on the physical presence requirement and the consequences for sending your application too early. It sucks for him, but it’s also not hard to wait an extra week to apply just to be absolutely sure.

Are you sure the tv channels are free? I’m only familiar with Germany: you can get a ton of channels as well but you have to essentially pay a tax for having a tv.
Yep, worked there during the changeover. 2003-04ish. I actually loved working there under the old management, the food was good, quality was the priority. Then the fryers left, replaced by industrial microwaves…but we still baked the muffins. I’m sure even those are frozen/reheated these days.
Amazing story. I can’t believe she’s only 50…not that long ago. Plenty of those dinosaurs booing her from the stands are still probably flooding facebook comment sections.

You’re right, but it does have a secondary impact when it can determine control of congress and the state legislatures. Remember, states control their individual voting processes for President, and there’s plenty of ways for them to “cheat” legally or otherwise.

There’s no fault here, imo…the person that put up the sign probably wasn’t thinking about events in Winnipeg. But that doesn’t change the fact that someone was killed and thrown away like trash. This sign pokes fun (albeit unintentionally) at a very real and raw situation. It’s fair to ask them to remove the sign, so as not to put the families of these missing women through more pain.
These are partially wrong. Pupil size/shape has no effect on field of view. A better way to judge FOV is where the eyes are placed on the head. Both in front like humans: small-ish FOV. On the sides of the head like a rabbit: larger FOV.

There’s no simple answer to your question, just like there’s no quick solution to the problem of inequality. But one premise you’ve mentioned isn’t quite correct. The democratic party hasn’t really been “ruling” for most of that time. They’ve controlled the presidency, yes. But for all except 2 years, they haven’t controlled Congress (it’s been either divided or republican controlled), and they haven’t controlled the supreme court. That said, a lot of Democrats are still happy to push the status quo, and there’s plenty of warranted criticism to go around.
It’s not quite that. It’s the players from the PWHPA that will fill the teams, possibly management from the PHF is involved though. Almost none, if any, of the PHF players will get signed for the new league. The hockey will be great to watch but it’s unfortunate how poorly they handled the end of the PHF…players signing 50-100+K contracts right up until the day the league folded. Harsh business i guess.

Each of the top 4 seeds gets their own quarter, with all things going to seeding would put 1-4 and 2-3 as the semifinals which all makes sense. But the Slams seed down to the third round (32), but don’t maintain this pattern, at least not completely. For example, in the US Open Men’s Singles this year, the first couple seed...
It’s not fully random after seeds 1-4. I believe 5-8 occupy the same 4 spots in the draw, but they are random drawn across those spots. Then 9-16 is another random draw across 8 spots and so on. The randomness prevents players from seeing the same matchups all the time if their rankings were to stay the same. It also prevents match fixing to avoid or set a particular matchup. Say #30 matched up poorly against #3, so they deliberately lost a prior match to drop to 31 and get a different matchup. It would be bad for the sport if that was allowed to happen.
