Welcome to the new look
Wave Without A Shore
It’s a work in progress but everything should work now
The only thing that’s going to be a pain with the ‘new’ Atkins…
...is their fondness for onions. When you get beyond the pre-prepared foods, you have to cook your own, and most recipes contain things like onions (no-go in this house), lamb (we don't eat sheep or goats), fish---ok, if it's salmon. And you have to improvise. Main...
Comet may hit Mars, and we haven't any seismological instruments aboard…

I have some paperbound copies of Intruder…
On a first-come, first-served basis for members of this site: 8.00 each, signed to you or just signed, plus US postage, which will probably work out to about 6.00. Overseas is worse. I'll give more detail on that when I figure it out. So it'll be something like 14.00...
And now that the fish book is finished, and the medical crisis is over…
...and my brother has finally gotten moved into his new house...hurrah!...all of which were simultaneous: the fish book was to keep me from climbing the walls, something I know awake or asleep, and sans crisis--- Back to the novel outlne. I fortunately have approached...
Well, we tried the Atkins diet food, and the good news…
a) it tastes really good. b) though the portions are small, if you can tough it out for 20 minutes after eating, you'll find you feel full, and stay that way. It's that protein hit. You're getting a lot of protein, very little carb, so there's no carb/sugar rebound...
Vae! viximus, bibimus…nunc dietemus!
Atkins. We've sort of lived South Beach style, but we've gotten more luau than restrained South Beach for way too long, during the stress of the winter, and now--- Now we've agreed we both feel better if we can be some pounds lighter, Atkins is the most effective diet...
And now, for the weirdness in the week…
Jane opens my door at 4:30 am to tell me the garage doorbell has gone off---a detached garage on the other side of the garden, its big door on the other side of the fence. This is a remote doorbell we have in the garage to signal one of us needs help. It had waked her...
Scary week—
Had the doc turn up a thyroid problem, nodule. I opted for an ultrasound, which turned out to show three nodules. I opted for a biopsy, which involves a thin needle into the thyroid while you're not out cold, nor in any wise sedated or restrained. Piece of cake: doc...
Higgs-Boson news…
Higgs Boson I kinda like the notion we live in molasses...it explains so much perversity, like butterside down... On Wednesday night Through the Wormhole (Science Channel) is going to have a special on the Higgs field theory.
Hope our friends in Texas are ok…
...with the duststorm coming in. Seems to me when I lived in the area we ALWAYS got them when we had a big CME and especially with auroras due to display way far south. I've always been curious whether there's a link.
CME headed here from Sun…
A coronal mass ejection, not to be confused with the far more problematic EMP (electromagnetic pulse) We could see a comet. PAN STARRS has made its loop of the sun safely and is coming back, same time same path, only a bit further over... We could see auroras......
