Sun Rise, Sun Set

Forget about all of this talk of Global Warming….

Maybe we should be more concerned about Global Cooling….

Our Sun has a larger impact on the temperature and climate changes happening to Earth than pollution, the loss of rainforests, aerosols, or any other Global Warming propaganda that is out there right now.

Canadian scientists have been studying the impact of sun spots since the end of World War II.
  

Solar activity can fluctuate and usually has spans of 11 year cycles.
 

Scientists say activity lately has been very quiet.
 

This is disturbing and may mean that a period of bitter cold could be on the horizon.
 

This happened before in the 17th century, and in Europe caused crop failures, famine and death.


Canada is seeking more funding for the use of solar flux monitor telescopes to better observe what is going on with the sun.


They have been using radio-telescopic monitoring since World War II.


Popular Mechanics science section has a article on this, with a beautiful graphic

Mother Who?

"My nominee for 2007 Person of the Year is a woman--a woman with a history of abuse, a woman who has never run for elective office, someone we all know, someone who makes her presence known on a daily basis in all our lives and, for my money, is better than any male alternative. That woman is Mother Earth. I think the environment is the compelling issue of our time." 

Brian Williams Veteran journalist who became anchor of NBC Nightly News in 2004, replacing Tom Brokaw

Read the article here:  ►      Time Person of The Year


Mother Earth, nominee for 2007 Person of the Year???? 


And I was hoping William
s would nominate Father Time . . . . 

This award, which "used" to be "Man of the Year," and has morphed into "Person" and "Persons" and now fictional characters, is a BIG JOKE. 

What next? 

The possibilities are endless!
