A powerful and adaptable bird of prey, the Great Horned Owl has the most extensive range, the widest prey base and the most variable nesting sites of any American owl. Its large yellow eyes, pronounced ear tufts and white bib distinguish the Great Horned Owl from related species, especially once its unmistakable multi-tone hoot is heard.

Watch as these baby owl chicks grow and learn to survive:

We can’t get enough of Amy’s new show, and here are five reasons why:

1) She radiates confidence but isn’t afraid to be vulnerable. She openly shares her sexual missteps with impeccable comedic timing and relatability. The stuff that you would probably only share with your closest BFF. But it’s not all bold prowess. She peppers in scenes that exhibit her occasional loneliness as well. Check out the hilarious exclusive sneak peek of tomorrow’s episode below.

Warning: this video includes strong language. Viewer discretion advised.

2) She’s gloriously raunchy. Remember how disgusted you were when “2 Girls 1 Cup” took over the internet? Remember how shocking it was? I don’t recommend checking it out if you haven’t seen it. It’s FOR SURE #NSFW. Leave it to Amy to bring it back with an awesome clip of her auditioning for it. The casting director even asks her to lose 3-5 lbs for the project. She replies with a crack about weight loss being no problem with what is required for the scene. Ha! And…gross. But that’s just it. That’s the magic of Amy Schumer. She’ll make you feel uncomfortable with the lines that she crosses, but at the same time, will make you feel at home with how relaxed and real she is.

3) She’s got the incredible Tig Notaro on her writing staff. We all know Tig’s amazing story by now. If not, check it out here and here. But to know Tig is one of the writers, you know you’re in good hands and will come dangerously close to wetting your pants from laughter.

4) She turns everyday-nothings into hilarious somethings. That awkward moment when you attempt a sexy selfie and end up looking totally constipated? Amy goes there. Ever eaten spaghetti straight out of the strainer? Amy has too. This boring day-to-day minutia is not usually worth recounting, unless Amy is doing it. Then it’s amazing.

5) She’s on a channel of men’s shows and men’s ads and she celebrates being a woman. And she’s still KILLING IT in the ratings. With your TV neighbors being the bros from Workaholics, Tosh.0, South Park, Key and Peele, and others, you know that the viewers are predominantly male. A NYT review of the show touches on this as well: ”Comedy Central broadcasts few shows from a woman’s point of view, and this sketch has a certain art-imitating-life quality. Our ad buys are for men, so we can’t lose them,” said Brooke Posch, the executive in charge of production for the channel, whose audience is 60 percent men. “Amy celebrates being a girl and being girly. Amy gets 50-50 male-female demos. Her relatability is amazing.”

I suggest getting on board NOW because soon everyone will love them, and don’t we all want to be that cool person who’s like, “I’ve already seen them live 3 times, and know all their songs, calm down!” instead of the late bandwagon fan?

The Chapins spent the bulk of 2010 singing back-up for She & Him, touring the world, often opening for them. That spring, they released their sophomore effort, Two. This album incorporated lush keyboards, layered percussion, electric guitars and warm, rich vocals tones, in addition to the staple acoustic guitar and three part-harmonies that the sisters are already known for. They are currently readying material for their third album of original material.

She’s written something new, a novel, called ‘Instant Mom’. A beautiful book about her journey to becoming a mother. It’s not only moving and heartfelt but HILARIOUS and insightful in the most surprising ways.

It catches you from the start and you don’t want to stop reading. What you end up with once you’ve finished the book is a lot of new information about parenting and adoption, and a bunch of stories (both funny and moving) from Nia along the way.

Fine! We might have cried on the first page…but we were laughing by the second so it’s totally okay!

You can buy it on Amazon here!

We met her almost two years ago when she did her first Video Chat Karaoke for us – ‘Say My Name’ by Destiny’s Child – and we’ve gotten to know her and watch her career grow ever since. She’s just come off tour with Maroon 5 as a featured performer and will be releasing her debut EP soon.

If you don’t love her already, you will!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, GIRL, WE LOVE YOU.

The series until now has been great, and this issue is no different. It’s filled with the best possible crossover scenarios you can imagine. ”Archie Meets GLEE Part 3” – The crossover event everyone’s talking about, rolls on! Dilton Doiley invented a machine that opened a wormhole between Riverdale and an alternate, mirror-verse with kids exactly like the Archie gang. Now Dilton and his new BFF Artie are trying to rebuild the Portal-Porter before the delicate balance between universes is disrupted by a kiss between star-crossed teens. Even the possibility of a Betty-Puck romance would set off a chain-reaction of cataclysmic events ending with not one, but TWO worlds imploding.

Written by Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa with art by Dan Parent and Rich Koslowski, the penultimate chapter of Archie Meets GLEE, where America’s favorite teenager crosses paths with the hit FOX TV series, is not to be missed!

Are you convinced this is the best thing ever yet? Because we are.

P.S. There’s a whole Josie And The Pussycats thing happening throughout the series and it’s SO GOOD. We’d tell you more, but we don’t want to spoil anything for you.

THIS is pretty much reason enough to go and get it.
