Yeah, I agree I think it is probably still in the president’s budget. I would be somewhat surprised if they get very far moving NMFS (or even just the marine mammal part of NMFS) to fish and wildlife. They don’t seem very committed. (But one should not underestimate them!)

I don't disagree, but for progressives without children in SPS, where should one go for better candidate information? I didn't entirely buy the stranger endorsements, but had a hard time finding evaluations I did trust.

I have seen so many random numbers thrown around. This indictes it was 54.6% in Seattle, so has just been topped this morning aqua.kingcounty.gov/elections/20...

Unfortunately I believe Seattle turnout in 2021 was 54.6%

Like, 95% of the ride was so great! So much more enjoyable than the D Line!

Thanks! I see that AirNow finally updated! This definitely explains why I have a headache after biking home! (But it was that or risk COVID on the bus since I didn't have a mask handy...)

What app are you using? Nothing I see looks nearly this bad. (It does *feel* awful when I step outside.)

I concluded a few years ago it's much easier to get to the Gulf Islands than the San Juans sans car!

The *main* integrated data types in a fishery stock assessment are indices of abundance, which depend on selected biomass (in aggregate), and age or length composition data.

I think of them as state-space models, but the population model components are usually age-structured and density-dependent, which I don't think will reduce down to something as simple as what you have in mind.
