spots? Spots?!? SPOTS?!?!?! we don't need no stinking spots!

besides those probably will spew more of art's magical mystery particles and

Weren't spots 981 and 990 counted as Cycle 24? They were just little burps,
but they were true Cycle 24, I think.

The magnetic north pole being in (or close to) Canada, the Canadians
have a quasi-proprietary interest, and they have one of the better websites:
http://gsc.nrcan.gc.ca/geomag/nmp/northpole_e.php

http://gsc.nrcan.gc.ca/geomag/nmp/long_mvt_nmp_e.php has a map showing
the movement. Indeed, one prediction shows that in 2050 it will be off
the Siberian coast.

Interesting also how it moves around 85km a day, in a diurnal variation.


Among other things:
Many authors have pointed out that the dipole part of the magnetic field
has been weakening during historic times, and that if the present trend
continues, the dipole field will go to zero in roughly 1500 years. Some
people take this to mean that we are entering a reversal.

Polar reversals are now the patent of the Republican party when the
White House tells us the private finance market can't do the job as
well as the government. [If all those companies are slipping into the
big sleep, then the Grand Old Party must have welded the greater fool
model into their platform for this dumpster diving orgy.]

The new compassionate conservative model of unemployment compensation:

1. Have you been indicted this week, such that it keeps you from
seeking work? Skip to #4 if so, but only if you are white,
married, Christian and live in the Hampsteads or can show
mortgages for 5 residences located in no fewer than two states and
one foreign capitol.

2. Have you sought a CEO position this week?

3. List three Board Directors you have contacted this week.

4. If you have satisfactorily answered these questions, pick up
$10million from the public trough and check with us next week.

Remember, unemployment compensation is NOT an entitlement, it is your
special right for having achieved such success in your field of
endeavor. Without your highly productive skills America would be
weaker in the eyes of the world. We know that $10million is a pale
compensation compared to the value you have provided to democracy, but
in these times many have to set aside personal needs for the sake of
keeping the titans of the financial market like PayDayLoans solvent.
Your patience and magnanimity means a lot for the millions of
under-employed that rely on this company.

Yes that is what I was talking about,With the poles of the Sun showing
no evidence of continuing its rotation
and where the poles of the Earth are accelerating instead of slowing
it could easily be seen as a tranfer of momentum or inertia.
If the Sun becomes passive and the Earth rotates on a eleven year
cycle. then a ice age could appear in the next 11 years!
11 years is starkly different to the 1000s of years that scientists
usually talk about. If the pole continuese this accelleration what is
there to stop it?
Let's hope the Sun shows some activity so I can test my antenna using
the "strong force" instead of the "weak force" and really shake this
group up.

polished the science of that jerk-reflex and both sides of the same

At least he got to nominate his own night-nurse to change the silver

No, about 5.5 percent. Gold hasn't been at $20/oz since the mid 1930's.

I didn't say per year.

No, you didn't say 'per' anything. The word 'Inflation,' without any
qualifiers, implies 'per year.' Per your lifetime is an ambiguous
reference and more so since apparently you're not dead yet.

So, someone missed the implied meaning?

How about, "Accumulated inflation over the intervening years?"
