War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Bright, bubbly and hot here this Sunday afternoon on California’s north coast — caps a gorgeous weekend as yesterday was much the same. In fact, in a rare instance for me in this region, I’m now weeding my little back-patio area in a T-shirt, which is a major thingy for an old-nerd’s skinny carcass. Right…
Overcast with a chilly breeze this early Thursday on California’s north coast as we grind through another work week. Friday is just a flip-of-the-finger away. We had a bit of nasty news yesterday afternoon from just south of us, down in Mendocino County, where a sheriff’s deputy was shot and killed in a shootout with…
Overcast and foggy with a chill in the air this early Sunday on California’s north coast — but if predictions are near-about correct, and we follow the course of the past week or so, sunshine and clear skies are in the immediate future. In an increasingly contrarian world, though, who in his-right-mind can predict shit?…
Heavy ground fog this way-too-early Tuesday here on California’s north coast, and the rain storm scheduled for last night didn’t show up, so it’s been re-positioned for later this week. The rainfall off last weekend’s deluge, though won’t stop the drought conditions, did give California’s communities a reprieve for awhile, but the months-long high-pressure system…
Clear and really-cold this early Wednesday here on California’s north coast with the air getting colder the closer to dawn. Away from the ocean and into the interior, temperatures could drop into the single digits, but even with us on the beach, it’s going to be a record-setting cold snap. However, since I leave for work…
Overcast and warm this Tuesday afternoon on California’s north coast — looks like it might rain, but that’s just near-natural. Clouds, but no rain in the forecast — typical for up here. News movement in the PM is much-about the same as this morning, though, one item appears to be gaining momentum — the bewildering…
Cold and clear this hard-to-handle Monday — having some InterWebs problems for some reason this morning, but we’re trying again. The weather has been absolutely gorgeous this past few days up here on California’s north coast, with more of the same forecast for this week. Not so for a big chunk of the US —…
Clear and cold again this Friday morning on California’s north coast as we prepare for the weekend — temperature right now is just a tad above freezing. Outlook for the next few days appears the same, nothing new. And today, of course, is the 50th anniversary of the JFK assassination in Dallas. Fifty is one…
Clear and cold this way-early Thursday on California’s north coast, and we can near-about see the weekend from here. Still not close enough, though, to reach out and touch. As the the UN climate talks in Warsaw, Poland, dribble to an end this week, the counter-balance to life as we know it may soon slam…
Despite all my crying and slobbering, it’s Monday again! And this early morning finds itself clear and cold on California’s north coast — weather better than most. One big climate question answered: Two university scientists have found that the “pause” or “hiatus” in global temperatures can be largely explained by a failure of climate researchers to…
