War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
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 gorgeous this Sunday afternoon on California’s north coast — a perfect view for satellite-tracking by the NSA. If they wanted, or had some kind of motive. A motive for the fictional ‘Enemy of the State,” the Will Smith movie from 1998, was the assassination of a US Senator caught on video tape —…
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…
Cold and overcast this Wednesday afternoon — the north coast of California gray with an occasional dull-sparkle of sunshine. Not too-bad a day, though. News-wise, a pretty mundane day, at least on the crisis side — not in perpetual nightmare that’s Iraq nowadays, however, as at least 66 people were killed across Baghdad and the country.…
Cold and windy this Monday afternoon, and though we’re forecast for rain to arrive anytime now, the weather-ambiance this near the coast leaves calling the shots up in the air — thunderstorms are predicted for tomorrow. Life is a wait-and-see routine sometimes. Technology’s storm sight is Instagram: @shanahan7, Tazewell County, Ill. The house… Damn :/…
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…
Clear and chilly this Friday morning here on California’s north coast — and, did I mention it’s FRIDAY! Time does travel fairly fast it seems, feels like this time a week ago. The World Meteorological Organization in Geneva reported this week 2013 will end up being the seventh warmest on record. WMO secretary-general Michel Jarraud: “All…
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, but cold and chilly this way-too-early Monday here on California’s north coast — the weather is pointing in the right direction. Winter’s on the way, or something else, more weird. An environment that’s changing is bringing together unlikely peoples. A few days ago, two people were attacked by polar bears in Churchill, Manitoba, mainly due…
