A season is one of the major divisions of the year, generally based on yearly periodic changes in weather.
Seasons happen due to the yearly revolution of the Earth around the Sun and the tilt of the Earth's axis relative to the plane of revolution. In Temperate and Polar regions, the seasons are marked by changes in the amount of sunlight which may cause animals to go into hibernation or to migrate, and plants to be dormant.
The Northern hemisphere is closer to the sun at times of the year than the southern, it is exposed to more light causing summer to come into action at different times as the earth revolves.
In temperate and polar regions generally four seasons are recognized: spring, summer, autumn, winter.
In some tropical and subtropical regions it is more common to speak of the rainy (or wet, or monsoon) season versus the dry season, because the amount of precipitation may vary more dramatically than the average temperature. In other tropical areas a three-way division into hot, rainy and cool season is used.
In some parts of the world, special "seasons" are loosely defined based upon important events such as a hurricane season, tornado season or a wildfire season.
Chinese seasons are traditionally based on 24 periods known as solar terms, and begin at the midpoint of solstices and equinoxes.[2]*

A. I have Chargers season tickets and they always give us the option to buy the playoff tickets for both games at the end of the season whether or our team makes it to each round. So we always buy both playoff tickets in October or whatever.I have a Chargers title game ticket which obviously is not good since they aren't playing here. So, they will apply that money to my season ticket package next year. And, I have purchased a ticket for the game at Gillette this Sunday seperately.As for this situation, I wouln't be surprised if the guy bought the tickets but can't make it to the game. It's always a coin toss when you buy them from an independent third party so make sure to get as much informaiton as possible from this guy before you buy

The Hills Season Two DVD??*
Q. I'm trying to figure out which season of the hills to buy on TV, because I completely stopped watching TV for like a year. I just started watching again a few months ago, and The Hills specifically like one-two months. I just found this site m/article_v3.php?contentid =64488&rssAuthor=1It was really helpfull breaking down the episodes of the season ONE DVD, and it helped me realize that I starting missing at the last few episodes of season one. My question now is what was season two about?? I don't want to buy the season just to have them having already watched them, I'm trying to pick the season that I've missed the most of. Watching the "Lauren Looks back" special on MTV these past few days has made me
