On this day, June 19, 1952, a seal pup was born at the Seaside Aquarium that was the first baby seal conceived and born in captivity in the world. However, 13 years later the Associated Press reported that the New York Aquarium had achieved that feat. It turns out, the Seaside Aquarium had not recorded their seal births with the American Association of Zoological Parks and Aquariums. So on the record the New York Aquarium holds this first, but newspaper reports from 1950 prove the Seaside Aquarium won this one.

Oregon DMV Says Facemasks Required
Policy applies regardless of vaccination status

When you go to an Oregon DMV office, be aware that the Department of Motor Vehicles has proclaimed that masks are now required inside the DMV offices and during drive tests conducted by DMV, regardless of vaccination status.

Within a recent announcement, the DMV claims that all state offices with any public contact resumed this safety precaution July 30 due to the surge in COVID-19 cases in Oregon this summer. These state offices claim they are following the latest Oregon Health Authority guidelines.

To avoid visiting the DMV physically, you can check DMV2U.Oregon.gov whenever you need a DMV service.

DMV has added over 20 new on-line services to the DMV2U online processes, including driver license renewal. You also can make an appointment for services that must be done in person – such as applying for a new license or the Real ID option for air travel. And you can see the most current COVID-19 safety requirements, location and hours of DMV offices near you.
