I have to admit, my thoughts and feelings are mixed about the Solar Eclipse. Do I want to be outside to watch it or stay inside? I have the glasses, but then people have said that some of them are not made to standard to protect. Are you going to be outside or inside?

I'm in the exact same boat. I was all for it until yesterday when I saw a post on Facebook from an eye doctor warning people NOT to view it, even with the glasses. Now I'm sort of worried and not sure if it's worth the risk.

Take the glasses and look straight ahead. If you can still see something, they aren't strong enough. If you don't see anything except the sun, then you're protected.

Very cool!

Awesome picture. Thanks so much for sharing!

The ground and the sky had sick an unusual appearance for a little while, and shadows were super sharp. I got to see the diamond ring, though!

Great point. I have also heard that the glasses some are selling do not protect your eyes. I’ll be outside, with my phone, standing away from the solar eclipse and videoing it at the same time.

I viewed the last one through a puddle reflection. My completely black glasses are probably safer.

I am not at work today, have glasses but am not watching. I have the same concerns.

Seems that the vaccine that usually takes more than 10 years to develop, test for side effects and go through the regulation process is being very fast tracked to roll out - which is a super great thing to potentially eradicate the virus. on the other side of the spectrum, people with life sciences n healthcare insights, how reliable and safe would you say vaccine (being fast tracked) is...?

This is not very old technology and not much studies as well.

What is considered a “large” caseload in employment litigation? I work at a large L&E boutique law firm and handling about 14-15 active litigation cases in state/federal court or arbitration. Some of these matters are multi-plaintiff and multi-defendant cases, but none are class actions. This does not include any matters I am handling in the charge stage or in pre-litigation. Not sure if that’s a typical caseload or not?
