War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Another crystal-clear morning this Sunday on California’s north coast and if the immediate past is any indication, this could turn to be another wonderful, ‘warm‘ day — ‘warm‘ being way-relative. The mid-70s in temperature for us is a “heat wave.” Sunshine and toasty for us, but not so for a giant chunk of the southern…
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…
Wet and gray this particular Tuesday afternoon on California’s north coast — sunshine briefly brightens every-once-in-a-while, but mostly thin, wispy rain alternating with low fog. Yet, with temperatures in the 60s, and not much wind, the ambiance is not at all unpleasant. Now after work, surfing the news this PM, the sense of time — …
Clear skies this Tuesday morning on California’s north coast as we sprint toward a rendezvous with an apparent natural-formed insanity. Sweet Harry Reid last night: “We hope with good fortune and the support of all you (senators) — recognizing how hard this is for everybody — that perhaps tomorrow will be a bright day.” Yeah,…
Clear and windy this early Wednesday here on California’s north coast as we continue on down the path toward a mega-not-magnanimous disaster — nine days within a vat of stupid. Top-hat John Boehner is crying President Obama and Democrats are attempting to “annihilate us” Republicans, though, he and his nasty-faced buddies are making a most-creative effort…
(Illustration: ‘Sunset Over the Arctic‘ found here). Odd the weather here this Saturday afternoon along California’s north coast — crystal-clear, and for this late in the day, still way-warm at 76 degrees, seemingly a stock-weather feature for this past week. First, a bite-like cold in the morning, but fairly-quickly switching on the warm-up button by…
Under the news layers, another slice of possible horror from the never-ending terror-tale of the Fukushima nuclear plant — this time the possible extraction of 1300 spent fuel rods from Unit 4: Conditions in the unit 4 pool, 100 feet from the ground, are perilous, and if any two of the rods touch it could cause…
Overcast and cool this way-early Wednesday on California’s north coast, and if the last few days are any indication, the weather up here is returning to its normal mode of cool damp. We’re coming off the most-extended warming period I’ve experienced since moving up here more than six years ago. A feel for the future.…
Dark overcast skies this Sunday morning on California’s north coast, and way-quiet in the early light — and I can’t even hear a sound from the mighty Pacific Ocean, a mile or so away. Thick shit, the air. And this morning five years ago, some real-thick shit was launched against a warbling, screaming financial fan…
The old Website is having some kind of problem again today — the front page has kind of folded back onto itself and a few of the ingredients here have vanished. A post I did this morning has vanished. My IT guy is working on the problem/problems. Although I write on the Web, work out…
