A

gray owl
perches
on a
branch
in a
neighborhood
park in
south
Anchorage,
Alaska,
on
Friday.
The
Alaska
Department
of Fish
and Game
says the
owl's
distinctive
facial
disk and
its
feathers
help
direct
sounds
toward
its ear
openings,
and that
it can
hear
mice and
other
rodents
under
2 feet
of snow.
Bird-watchers
have
reported
repeated

Eddie
Murphy is shown
in a scene from
"A Thousand
Words." An
AP movie critic, David Germain,
gave the film
1 1/2 stars out of
four, writing,
"They strain to
sow laughs out
of this thin,
pointless idea
with dumb
slapstick and
pratfalls and a
lot of wordless
mugging by
Murphy, who
proves he can be
just as
insufferable
when he's not
talking as when
he is."
