One of those things I wish I had said… Earlier, I had characterized Sen. Biden as such: …really nothing but a dim and windy aristocrat, an insider’s insider who has been around for so long mainly because, well, he has always been there. Scott Johnson, though, nails it much closer to the target for which I was searching. All things considered, including her political views, her record in office, her personal attributes, her complementarity with ...

Many have been keeping a watchful eye on solar activity recently. The most popular thing to watch has been sunspots. While not a direct indication of solar activity, they are a proxy for the sun’s internal magnetic dynamo. There have been a number of indicators recently that it has been slowing down. August 2008 has made solar history. As of 00 UTC (5PM PST) we just posted the first spotless calendar month since June 1913. ...

Barry himself says “Children without fathers in their lives are five times more likely to live in poverty and commit crime, nine times more likely to drop out of school, and 20 times more likely to end up in prison.” Being President is a 24/7 job, constantly on the move, in meetings, making decisions, pumping the flesh, meeting donors, talking to Congress. He has 2 children. How can he possibly put himself in a position ...

I am heavily frustrated from the way the Web works today. Everything seems to be broken beyond reason. I really want to fix the damn thing but I realize that it is not up to me to do that. It is up to all of us to make sure that code is written in the most secure possible way. Can we do that? Perhaps not! What can we do then? Before I get to the ...

The Socialist paradigm has been dominant in the West for well over a hundred years. The October Revolution in 1917 was the radical realization of the Marxist dream, but the Socialist ideal had been overwhelmingly popular among the educated classes for at least a generation before that. State Socialism on the Prussian model began with Bismarck, and it was followed in short order by the Progressive movement, the Fabians, the Futurists, and all the various ...

Since I already have the breast-shaped gel dispenser installed in my shower, I think I may get this 9-inch-high Nose Shower Gel to put it in my kitchen and dispense lime Jello Mello. Too bad it only exudes gel out of the right nostril, though, because it would make an excellent ketchup and mustard dispenser for just $17.95. [Potpourri via Dark Roasted Blend]

While sunspots are often cited as the main proxy indicator of solar activity, there is another indicator which I view as equally (if not more) important. The Average Planetary Magnetic index (Ap), the strength of which ties into Svensmark’s cosmic ray theory modulating Earth’s cloud cover. A weaker Ap would mean less cosmic rays are deflected by the solar magnetic field, and so the theory goes, more cosmic rays provide more seed nuclei for clouds ...
