If you haven’t heard, the self proclaimed savior of the world and personal do-good’er Bono from the band who defined “sell out” known as U2 has been admitted to a hospital for emergency back surgery. Personally I think its from bending over in those stupid rock and roll poses in his music videos while the camera sails under his crotch or down his big mouth.
He’s probably in the hospital right now saying, “how kin yew poke foon of me in yer bloog when there’s all this suffrin’ goin on in me back! NURSE! I need another Nooty Booty bar!!!”
“A long dark magnetic filament is looping around the northeastern limb, stretching almost 100,000 km from end to end: Long, bushy filaments like this have been known to grow unstable and erupt, producing a type of spotless flare called a “Hyder flare.” If that happens now, Earth would likely feel some effects from the blast because the filament is turning to face our planet.”
The solar wind has also been raging. Speeds and proton densities of the solar wind over this last 24 hour period have increased by 30%. Proton density is now down but the winds are still going strong. So hipsters beware…its not your 3-G network failing…its because you are falling victim to the most important weather on the web.
I suppose they got that shrimp from Thailand cause almost 20% of the gulf is off limits to fishermen…and note how the state of Louisiana is left off of that list…
Now that BP/Halliburton/Transocean has turned the Gulf of Mexico into the U.S.’s largest filling station…whats next? How in the hell is it possible to clean it up? Where are all those celebrities now? Why no telethons/text coffers to help our own people clean up this disaster? What good is having all those jokers appear before a congressional committee right now? How is it helping the situation?
You know its only a question of time before BP declares bankruptcy and leaves the U.S. holding the bag. And now it appears that the oil is going to be carried via the loop current in the gulf to the Keys, Miami, the Georgia & Carolina coasts….No need for the cast of the Jersey Shore to get their fake tans from a can any more. MTV can just film them taking a dip in the waters off of Miami…they will come out with that nice orange/brown glow they seem to thrive in.
Does this mean that I can use gulf seafood now to power my car? Running low on crude, just throw a couple of gulf shrimps in the tank. We’ll get at least 20 miles out of em. (maybe 9 miles if its an SUV)
