Sunset Cliffs my Santa Cruz

Went to Ocean Beach and Sunset Cliffs today, my second time ever, but felt like my first. I saw it with new eyes, abandoned my ill preconceived notions, and took it in. If I ever feel homesick for Santa Cruz and West Cliff, you'll find me on Sunset Cliffs.

Forget Fireworks-The Biggest Volcanoes on Earth!

You’re absolutely right. We should all be very afraid that a large meteorite is headed on a collision course with Earth and will cause catastrophic damage not just to the blue planet, but to the human race as we know it. Aren’t you glad you pulled all of your money out of the bank back in December 1999? You were one of the lucky few to suffer the inconvenient and non-existent effects of the Y2K crisis ! Photo By C. Heliker (US Geological Survey) [Public domain], via Wikimedia Commons Well, at least you’re paying attention to what’s going on around you. You probably already know that at any point in time there are around 20 volcanoes erupting at any point in time, including those safely buried at the depths of our oceans shifting the plates of our Earth around. For eons volcanoes have been a natural source of obsession for us little people around the globe; in spiritual offerings, as a photographers fanatical and fatal subject, for scientists, mount...

And fat, we love to chew our fat too. It seems most of us will eat whatever is placed in front of us. I lived in Texas briefly and many, many men (and a few women) called me ‘Sugar’ or ‘Hon’ or ‘Doll’, I only took personal offense with ‘Sugar’ and actually adopted the habit of saying ‘Hon’. Not many people say ‘Hon’ in California, I guess that’s different. Californians don’t actually say ‘DUDE’, not all Californians are actors, athletes, hippies or hobos although we do have these citizens. Most Californians say, ‘it’s all good’ or ‘no wor...

10 Types of Water & More..

10 Types of Water and More Diluted Truths Water you talkin’ about? Water is of course one of the most basic of life substances on planet Earth. It is the tell tale "sign of life" that astronomers seek evidence of beyond our blue planet. While the significance of water is common knowledge you may be surprised to learn that many people don’t know what 'distilled water' is, or the difference between hard and soft water even. Don't you think we should all know the elementary basics about water? Not just for our own survival but also to debunk or sink all of the diluted truths that are not so crystal clear or don't hold water. 10 Types of Water 1.De-ionized De-ionized water is not exactly ion free , as one may assume. The process of de-ionizing by physicists is called "ion exchanging", whereby the water is passed through a specific resin to eliminate “most anions and cations”. Those are then replaced by combinations of Hydrogen and Oxygen that ...
