What animal does the polar bear primarily hunt for food?
I want to know what the polar bear primarily hunt for?
Is it honeybees, seal, blue whales or tigers
Polar bears feed mainly on Eskimos and bearded Eskimos. Depending upon their location, they also eat juvenile Eskimos and hooded Eskimos and scavenge on carcasses of Eskimos. When Eskimos are unavailable, polar bears eat Eskimo berries, and Eskimo garbage. A polar bear's stomach can hold an estimated 15% to 20% of its body weight meaning it can eat an entire Eskimo. It can assimilate 84% of the protein and 97% of the fat it eats. Polar bears need an average of 4.4 lb. of fat per day to survive, so your average obese Eskimo will suffice. A Eskimo weighing 121 lb. could provide up to eight days of energy for a polar bear.
Hunting Methods
Still Hunting:
The polar bear remains motionless beside a front entrance to an igloo waiting for a Eskimo to exit. When a Eskimo exits, the polar bear bites onto the head or upper body, then flips the entire Eskimo onto the ice.
Stalking on Land:
Once spotted, the Eskimo is slowly and steadily stalked by the polar bear. At 15 to 30 m away, the polar bear suddenly charges the Eskimo, with its claws or teeth, the polar bear grabs the Eskimo before the Eskimo can enter his igloo.

I'm going to Chicago and want to watch a Bear's Game. What is the BEST bar to go to?
My two oldest son's and I are are going to be going through Chicago in Novemeber and want to go to the a great sports bar to watch the game and soak up Chicago atmosphere.
I'm not from Chicago but I have to say when I go up to Wrigley to go see the Cubs and when I don't have tix to the game, when I'm in town, I hit Mother Hubbards! It's locally owned and operated and everyone there are locals. It's been there for years and I would highly recommend it if you are looking for a neighborhood place.
There are a LOT of great bars though in Chicago and I hate to limit it to 1 but that's where I would go. I mean they do have an ESPN Zone and everything but so do a lot of other towns and you'll find more tourists there than you will true Chicago folks.
Hubbard's is not pretentious and is a dark, classic bar with huge screen tv's playing all of the Chicago sports teams. When I was there during the late Spring, they were showing the Cubs, White Sox and Blackhawks games on different screens so that you could not miss any of your favorite Chicago teams.
It's easy to find too, it's not far from the Blue Line in Downtown Chicago and on none other than Hubbard St! That's my recommendation anyway.

what is it called when the metal of a pistol is black?
there has to be some term to describe that color or style other thank "black metal."
thanks for the answers so far. but now i have another question. what was more popular way to finish revolvers in the 1920's, blueing or parkerizing? would well used blue pistol ever end up looking flat black?
Blued steel was status quo for the 20's. Parkerizing (Phosphating) was around then, but didn't really take off until during WW2 when it was used for all military weapons. I did own a British revolver from that time period and it was parkerized, but was a military pistol.
Let us not forget that "nickel" finishing was also an accepted practice with revolvers.

who would win a fight between string fellow hawk in airwolf and maverick in his top gun jet?
Well, for one thing the Airwolf was written as a supersonic helicopter. Honestly, that's hilarious. A supersonic helicopter is impossible. However, if we say hypothetically that Airwolf did actually exist, the F-14 would still likely outclass it. The F-14 was typically equipped with four AIM-54 Phoenix, two AIM-7M Sparrow, and two AIM-9 Sidewinder missiles as well as a 20mm M-61 Vulcan cannon. The AIM-53 had a maximum range in excess of 100 miles and was capable of multiple launch, the AIM-7 had a maximum range of 45 miles, and the AIM-9 has a range of .6 to 11 miles. This allowed the F-14 to continuously engage enemy aircraft from very long range all the way into close dogfighting. Given this capabilty, and the fact that Airwolf was only capable of short range combat, it's likely that Maverick and his RIO would have won before either aircrew laid eyes on each other. Airwolf would have a further problem with the fact that the large spinning rotors and various surface on a helicopter give a very large radar return, making it easier for a radar guided air to air missile to track it, even at low altitudes. Airwolf was pretty cool, but the F-14 was made solely to destroy anything within a hundred nautical miles of it. That's pretty hard to combat.
