News Flash! Sun’s behavior still strange… climate scientists still unconcerned.

Strange enough though… the climate change crowd does not seem to consider inexplicable behavior associated with the source of our heat worthy of consideration as a forcing…

Solar Scientists Agree That the Sun’s Recent Behavior Is Odd, but the Explanation Remains Elusive

Now this is sweet!!!

American Home Shield Swimming Pool Coverage

Thursday, May 27th, 2010

Just want to get this out there so it is searchable for people looking for information on AHS American Home Shield and swimming pool coverage.

Make sure of what you are signing up for before you buy American home shield’s swimming pool coverage.

When I signed up with AHS I was told that the contract would cover everything associate with the pool except the liner. When my pool developed a leak I discovered that they only cover components (pump, filter, and plumbing) that are above ground (which you could fix yourself for little or no money)…

If you pay extra for the pool coverage for an in-ground pool please be aware that AHS will not cover skimmers, drains, lights, liner, steps, and any plumbing under the dirt. I have no idea if they cover the diving board, but I bet they have an exclusion for that too.

Towel Day is an annual celebration on the 25th of May, as a tribute to
the late author Douglas Adams (1952-2001).
On that day, fans around the universe proudly carry a towel in his
honour.

I love Douglas Adams! How can I get involved?

On the 25th of May, carry a towel. Where? Everywhere!

Proudly show the world you’ve observed Towel Day and upload a picture to
Flickr, tagging it with “towelday” (most interestinglatestgroup)
or make a YouTube video (most relevantlatest). We look forward to seeing yours!

Want to help the cause? Tweet about #towelday, blog,
post in forums, share a link in Facebook, link to the site… The
more we are, the merrier!
