Hey there everyone! This week is an exciting week for astronomers, as is the case for most of fall. This week is especially eventful however, because first off, the Autumnal equinox occered yesterday at 4:51 a.m. CDT! Fall is now officially here.
Later on tonight, yes, tonight, Venus reaches its greatest brilliancy for the year at magnitude -4.8. That's brighter than it has been in over 20 years. Venus can be seen in the east from about an hour before sunrise until sunrise. You can't mi
Ok, there's a wierdo in my town that's convinced he sees a UFO every morning in the east. I would just like to let you know that if you see the same thing, it's Venus, and not some alien invader.
You know, it's been a long time since I've posted an astronomy update of some sort, but I just got my Astronomy Magazine the other day, so I'll have a bunch of stuff up soon.
I also haven't done any set reviews for a while either, but I'm kinda short on time anyway. Mostly because of school, my banner shop, and a whole bunch of PBZP's I've done and I need to do.
Also, I'm researching colleges too, and I'm not so sure which one to go to. And I'm looking for job opportunities too.
My bl
Pick a number 1-9.
Multiply that number by 9.
Add the digits of the new number together.
Subtract 5 from what you get.
Now take the corresponding letter to the new number you have, A-1, B-2, C-3, etc.
Now pick a country that starts with that letter.
Now pick an animal that starts with the last letter in the country you picked.
And finally, pick a color that starts with the last letter in the animal you picked.
Well, did you get an Orange kangaroo in Denmark?
I have decided to rename my blog: The Observatory, because ~Laughin'Man~ suggested it, and it totally rocks! Let me know what you think of the new name.
Also, ~Laughin'Man~, I will make you a banner and a PBZP. PM me as soon as you read this entry.
Now that I have your attention, I'd like to ask a question.
I'm thinking about renaming my blog. What should I name it? If you want, comment with your title and subtitle suggestions. Whoever's title entry I pick gets an awesome banner of their choice from my shop, and a place in my PBZP, even if the letter is taken. Alright, with that said... On your marks, get set, comment!
I just got done playing Laser Tag at a water park and it was awesome! I played with a bunch of other people, and I whipped them, BAD! Out of 10 people, I took first place with 37 kills in a 7 minute 30 second round, and I only died 4 times. The arena we were in was really cool too. It was about 100 feet by 200 feet, and it was pitch black, except for a few blacklights. There were walls, mirrors, and fog machines too. I already want to go back again!
I was just listening to the radio, and on KFYR 550 AM, they have a little hour long segment called "What's on your mind?" So, I'm gonna do the same thing here in my blog: What's on your mind?
I bet you were getting worried about my lack of entries the last few days. You probably thought something happened to me, well, you were wrong if you did, but I don't think anyone did.
Anyway, several days ago, I posted this in the forums, but I never did in my blog. This is my self MOC, tell me what you think.
Yes, it's basically a recolor of Maxilos, but the closer you look, you find that I made dozens of changes, so as much as it's like Maxilos, it isn't. A lot of people in th
I've been cleaning my room lately, and found a really cool picture in a really cool picture frame on my desk. The picture was taken in mid-May of 2005, at Epcot Center. One of the theme parks at Disney World in Orlando. The picture has me in it, and as most pictures of people on BZPower, my face is hidden... and by a much nicer one I might add.
Me at Mission: Space in Florida.
That was the best week of my life. Oh well, memories are all that matter.
To whom it may concern: the Lunar Eclipse that I reported last month will occur the morning of August 28th. Umbral eclipse begins at 3:51 a.m. CDT, Totality begins 4:52 a.m. CDT, Mid-eclipse is at 5:37 a.m. CDT, Totality ends at 6:22 a.m. CDT, and the Umbral eclipse ends at 7:24 a.m. CDT. The entire event will be visible on the west coast of North America, and most of it will be visible in the midwest. Those of you on the eastern coast may not see very much of it, but still should be able to cat
I've read through or glanced at almost every blog that's on BZPower, and I've found several blogs that are great and fun to read, and other's that may lack a little luster. For the most part, the blogs that I like have many approvals, and thus comes my question... What do you want to see in my blog that would make you want to come back and look at it regularly, and maybe even give it you're approval?
I'm in a position right now to buy either Toa Mahri Nuparu, or Toa Mahri Hewkii. The only problem is... I don't know which one to get. Can any of you provide any suggestions?
