War, Politics, and Life by Bruce Maulden
Fog and a warm breeze this early Wednesday on California’s north coast — and warm is not like in hot, but more like in not-so chilly. And so it goes. Short and literary-dramatic, direct and to the point — yesterday from UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon: “We know that we are not on track, and time…
Ground fog and a bit warm this way-too-early Monday on California’s north coast as another work week starts whether we like it or not — not! Those last two days appear much-much shorter than those other ones — why? The weather up here has been super great the last month, and the upcoming week appears…
(Illustration found here). Just as everything got worse, it did — dust blown thousands of miles is darkening ice on earth’s glaciers and in the Arctic, eliminating “albedo,” the process of ice reflecting sunlight, adding heat in the environment, and further/faster climate change. From the Guardian today: The phenomenon of “dark snow” is being recorded from…
Overcast with a bit of ground fog this early Tuesday on California’s north coast as we pass the halfway mark for 2014 — time flies, period. Fun or not. Although we’ve had some gorgeous weather here, another product of the times — a derechos — had formed in the US Midwest and last night churned…
Heavy ground fog this early Wednesday on California’s north coast, and beyond the mist, we’re forecast for some rainfall today, maybe. Weather on any shoreline is pretty-much unpredictable in a local, predictable way. A couple of weeks ago, President Obama delivered the commencement address at the University of California and jumped on climate change as…
Ground fog again this early Tuesday on California’s north coast, and warm, too. And speaking of heat — Dr. Christopher Keating, a physicist who has taught at the University of South Dakota and the U.S. Naval Academy, has offered $10,000 of his own money to anyone who can disprove climate change. A kind of back-slap to…
Overcast with a chilly breeze here this Sunday on California’s north coast as we mingle the single days left in summer, which by the way, officially cranked-off yesterday. Although we’ve been experiencing ‘summer‘ for the past six weeks or so — bright, windy and a lot of sunshine. And warm for the most part. Especially…
Bright sunshine this Sunday morning on California’s north coast — the weekend more than half gone, and the garish tomorrow fiendishly well in sight. Clock-produced time a fascinating fantasy fueled primarily by presupposed notions, or words to that effect… In early September 2008, David Letterman unleashed a climate change rant on his CBS program, continued…
Clear, quiet and seemingly calm this early Tuesday on California’s north coast — I say ‘seemingly’ because you really never know. First work day for the average asshole after the Memorial Day weekend, and shit is just as shitty as they were on Friday. Although I’d posted on this a couple of weeks ago —…
High overcast and a little on the chilled side this early Wednesday on California’s north coast — halfway through the work week and the sailing is choppy. The grind of daily life does get tedious. And to start the morning: A new report out Tuesday says climate change might increase the price of Kellogg’s Corn…
