from slashdot: "Just a few weeks after the sun's peak in its 11 year cycle, two large CME's (Coronal Mass Ejections) occured on the surface of the sun. Now, as the effects of those eruptions reach earth, we're experiencing an excellent season of aurora, or "Northern Lights". Fantastic red aurora are being reported as far south as central California, and amateur and professional astronomers as far south as 40 degrees latitude are on watch. SpaceWeather.com has all the breaking news, as well as details of the CME's which occurred earlier this week. Take a step outside, get some fresh air, and enjoy the sky. You might just be treated to a rare astronomical opportunity."

Did you know? --More than half of the world is lactose intolerant, meaning they cannot digest any more than about a pint of milk a day. A very interesting chapter about milk, its early uses, contents and using it in cooking.

Juglito Ergo Sum - I Juggle Therefore I Am Yesterday I went to a St. Patricks day party where everyone had to tell a story, sing a song, show a talent or tell a joke. -I juggled. Be like the Flying Karamazov Brothers, learn how to juggle :-) Oh, and also get a '46 Chevy school bus, rivet a VW van on top, and paint vegetables on the hood.

In my essay I took the stance that none of our first amendment rights should be comprimised in school, but in reality I don't completely agree. I think it's necessary for some restrictions to be made in order to maximize an educational and safe environment. I've found that it's sometimes easier to argue the other side rather than basing the essay on my own opinion.

Another week, another weekend, more homework...The electric motor that I ordered came on Friday. It's pretty cool. It goes. Now I have to figure out something to do with it, and I'm still figuring out how it works. There are 5 wires comming out of the thing! It weighs a lot (It's a pretty hefty motor) and grease spills out of it when you overheat it. The CD-burner ish fighting with me; Apparently it thinks making coasters is funny.

I've been doing some ordering over the internet recently: I ordered a book from Amazon and a electric motor from ebay. I love how this works. I just got the book today -BAM- it got here that fast, and the motor should be comming tommorow. What do I need a motor for? Well I'm planning on making a gizmo thingie...I'll explain as work progresses, but I got the idea from the Exploratorium. If you're ever in San Francisco, swing by the Exploratorium - and say Bavetta sent you.

Looks like it will snow a lot tonight and tommorow (total for above 7000 feet is 2 feet) so I'm hoping for a snow day from school tommorow... Mongolian BBQ tonight...mmmmm.....

No skiing today. One of my dad's guests from Virginia hurt his back carring luggage, but their plan is to still ski tommorow. I just finished reading (that's right, reading, not something I often do) Harry Potter and the Socerer's Stone. It was actually pretty cool.

A cool site to visit: Ventures by Patrick Combs, a motivational speaker. "There's a little Ferris Bueller in all of us." Read about his $95,035.35 adventure, where he cashed a junk mail check just for fun, and it cleared, and many others...

Back from school and I'm exausted! Phew! I guess I stayed up too late last night. I got "Dinosaur" the movie on DVD for the new CDRW/DVD combo drive that came in the mail, and I gotta say I'm pretty impressed. Not from the movie, although it was pretty cool too, but from the unbeliveable picture quality. It makes the computer monitor like an HD-TV. Way cool -Plus no fast-forwarding or rewinding. Pull out the pop-corn...
