Caesars are made with a different base. All Caesar cocktails are made with Clamato juice, a mixture of tomato juice and clam juice. .

Yep .
The correct answer was Vixen
The most common use of "vixen" may be as the term for a female fox, but it is also widely used in many areas of life. Etymologically the word also means a woman with a temper or who is argumentative or, often, refers to a sexually active and attractive woman. The word has also found its way into everyday life as titles of video games, movies, novels, bands, songs, and albums. It seems to also be used by the military, particularly in Great Britain, with a mid-20th Century fighter plane named Sea Vixen, several naval vessels, and several nuclear tests.
Incidentally, a male fox is called a dog, or sometimes a tod. Babies are pups or cubs.
Move one space in any direction and take any piece but the opposing King
While not the most versatile mover in chess, the king is certainly the most critical since the object of the game is to put the opponent's king into checkmate (where the opponent's king cannot make any move that takes it out of danger of capture). In addition to being able to move in any direction one space at a time the king may also perform an operation called "castling." Castling may be done under certain rigid conditions and involves the king taking the place of a rook that is two spaces to its left or right and the rook moving into the open space that was between them.pdb1

7 Ways to Stop Brain Freeze . “Brain Freeze” is the intense headache people often get when they eat ice cream, popsicles, milkshakes, frozen drinks and other really cold foods. It is a very sharp, stabbing pain in the forehead and most of us have experienced it at one time or another. Brain Freeze (sometimes called an “Ice Cream Headache”) is caused by the blood vessels above the roof of your mouth responding to prevent a loss of heat in your head and therefore protect your brain. The blood vessels in your head widen to let in more blood (more heat). This rapid swelling of the blood vessels, which contain sensitive nerves, is what causes a headache. At one time it was thought that this phenomenon happened only in hot weather, but in fact, it can happen in any temperature. It’s the temperature of the food that you are eating that causes the effect. 7 Ways to Stop “Brain Freeze” in its tracks: Press your tongue against the roof of the mouth to warm the area. Tilt your head back for about 10 seconds. Drink a liquid that is warmer than the cold substance that caused the headache. Take small bites or sips and let them warm on your tongue before they touch the roof of your mouth. Make a mask with your hands and cover your mouth and nose; breathe quickly. Press your thumb against the roof of your mouth. Since Brain Freeze starts after you swallow, you can actually prevent it by holding the cold substance against the roof of your mouth before you swallow. But this technique seems so illogical most people won’t even try it!pdb1

At sundown on the first Friday of March, the 24-hour National Day of Unplugging begins. It’s a chance for anyone feeling overwhelmed by all the screens, push notifications, and news alerts that make up daily life to step back from it all and live the way we did in the not-too-distant past. If your personal or professional obligations make the full sundown-to-sundown experience impossible, fret not — even unplugging for a few hours can feel like a breath of fresh air.

With thousands of miles of varied coastline, the United States has a beach to suit everyone, from tourist-filled stretches of sand to more rugged, isolated inlets. The nation's longest stretch of beach is the Cape Hatteras National Seashore in North Carolina. It extends for 70.4 miles. It includes a portion of the Outer Banks and a number of islands. The Cape Hatteras National Seashore has a huge diversity of wildlife, providing many areas for nesting sea turtles. It also has a fascinating history of shipwrecks and piracy.
What state has the most waterfront property?
Alaska
So there really is no contest, Alaska has more shoreline than any other state both tidal and freshwater by a lot.

April 27
Morse Code Day on April 27
honors the inventor of the Morse code, Samuel Morse, who was born on this day in 1791.
Morse code is a way to transmit text through a series of signals. Each character or alphabet in a language is represented by a sequence of dots and dashes.SOS
First demonstrated on January 11, 1838 by Alfred Vail and Samuel Morse, Morse code soon became commonly used by the military and the aviation industry worldwide.
Until 1999 the distress signal "SOS", or "··· – – – ···" in Morse code, was used to communicate distress by ships and naval vessels around the world. Although it does not stand for anything it has been remembered as "Save Our Souls" or "Save Our Ship".
It was replaced by the Global Maritime Distress Safety System in 1999, but is still widely recognised as a distress signal today.
There are 2 different holidays .
Distinguishing the Two Holidays
Morse Code Day celebrates the invention of morse code and the electric telegraph machine. This special event was established on this date to honor Samuel Morse, who was born on April 27, 1791.
Learn Your Name in Morse Code Day was created to stir up interest in morse code. As a communication tool, morse code is being replaced by modern technology. This special day was created to encourage people to learn and use morse code, and to keep it from disappearing altogether. Hopefully, this day will pique your interest in morse code and you can start to learn more about it, by learning to communicate your name in morse code.

Lol . Yes . Let's dwell on that for a while . So funny . I will post another photo . That's not even what I look like .
METOPOSCOPY
It was in use in the Classical era, and was widespread in the Middle Ages, reaching its zenith in the 16th and 17th centuries.

Prebuttal
NOUN
prēˈbədl
1. (In politics) A response formulated in anticipation of a criticism; a preemptive rebuttal.
"The debaters had talking points and prebuttals planned, so no actual debating took place."
"Instead of rehearsed prebuttals, it's refreshing to see a candidate answer questions naturally."
"The criticism was unexpected, so there was no way a prebuttal could have been planned for the issue."
French, 1990s
If it seems like politicians have a rehearsed answer for everything, it’s because they often do. These planned responses to specific questions and talking points are called “prebuttals.” This is a relatively new term that popped up in politics in the 1990s, but it can be traced back to the Old French “rebut” (“a reproach or rebuke”), which turned into the English word “rebuttal,” meaning “a refutation or contradiction.” Tack on the prefix “pre-” and you have the rehearsed rebuttal, a “prebuttal.”

The most popular toy of 1970 was the nerf ball, beloved by kids and parents alike for its harmless indoor use. Since then, nerf has gone on to become a hugely popular brand with a wide array of blasters, all firing special foam balls or darts. Nerf stands for "non-expanding recreational foam" and is made from a polyester resin that reacts with another compound in the presence of CO2, thereby creating a light polyurethane. It can't puncture skin or injure you, nor can it break the kitchen window. Although the nerf ball entered the market in 1970, kids would have to wait another 20 years for the first nerf gun.

25,125 PostsWord of the Day: Compeer
[kəm-PEER]
Part of speech: noun
Origin: Middle English, 15th century
1.
A person of equal rank, status, or ability.Examples of Compeer in a sentence
"The company founder met her lawyer in New York along with his compeer from a firm in Los Angeles to discuss moving the head office to the West Coast."
"Richard was a compeer of my mother’s from her office, but I had no idea he’d once been famous as a folk singer."
About Compeer
“Compeer” is based on the Middle English “comper,” from the Latin “compater,” meaning “first cousin” or “good friend.”
Did you Know?
“Compeer” is a term with many equivalents, most notably the Spanish “compadre,” meaning “friend or companion”; the Sicilian “cumpari,” meaning “buddy”; and the modern American term “goombah.” This last term, meaning “pal” or “associate,” is the product of English speakers mishearing the Southern Italian pronunciation of “cumpari,” which does not emphasize the final syllable. “Goombah” has a close relative in Peru, Chile, and Argentina, where “cumpa” means “buddy.” The English “compeer” builds on the Middle English “comper” by adding the term “peer,” so that the term denotes a close companion of equal standing.
