Re: Junk DNA and Gaia
Explaining cold wave in NE
Yahoo News - Latest News & Headlines
Story on cold wave. It has been a problem several years running now.
This is limited to the winter about this time and gets to some of the complexities of signal and noise as it relates to Milankovitch. Understand that the winter months have less electrical noise from convection and the signal of the solar electrical output is moved well to the closed isobars of the north EMF and there is little biological modulation to stop what happens at this time of year. We are at our closest distance to the sun at this point, even though the earth is tilted to the south. Our earth EMF is shrinking, and especially shrinking over the Hudson Bay node. That means that warming cloud patterns will not commence over that node as well compared to the past. Combine that with the fact that upwelling from the cold SSTs created by lack of cloud cover trapping heat that is not going to bring biological activity at this time of year, and the conductivities remain poor, and poorer still by the fact that colder waters are less conductive. There is also an interesting human part that is local. The St. Lawrence Seaway, much like the Colorado, is siphoned off, and especially siphoned off during the winter. Niagra Falls has almost no water running over it this time of year, because there are no tourists. The water is diverted into Canada for hydro power. Again, no conductivity increases from gas exchange related to river and biology coming down to the marine biosphere along the coast.

Re: A Cold Look at the Sun
It is undoubtedly true their are serious lacunae in the biologist's use in general of electromagentics. If I was doing only biology I would likely be more interested in focusing in on what you are saying but meanwhile... this is a c/e site and there more serious and less difficult things that need to be addressed which may speak to the same kind of communication but if indeed creationism can predict gaps farther seperated spatially than evolutionists who finding bacteria on Mars might try to insist for this station on Earth as well than room for your ideas may indeed materialize and I could comment on Baramins and your map of Europe. I see two scientific developemnts that would need to unfold before this could happen. ONE-Gould's notion of hardened adaptation would have to be DOCUMENTED to be historically inaccurate. TWO- Higher categories of classification would have to be shown to be due to new ideas in entropy. If both of these occur then it would be likely needed to show that Hyatt's planorbids' illustration can be explained IN THE SAME LIGHT that Mark25 admitted he came to on this board. I think at that point should it ever occur will be demonstrable that Niles E-'s "sloshing bucket"p88 will devolve to Newton's absolute force in locating Wright's trial and error process IN taxogeny not OUT as Eldredge preferred it. In this judged environment your ideas may grow. I dont think the Earth is alive however I think that reliance on geographic speciation will BE instead Mark25's morph change that will NOT have during scalability of a kind the same FINDABILITY that the usability would indicate no matter the e-m. Cantor had showed that continuous motion was possible in discontinuous space. This would have to apply to your stuff as well is what I am saying as I try to foist it reverse wise onto the less Wise understanding that NE fails or would have failed my own notion of his "biomere' merely for if I was his student rather than Will's. There WOULD be implications of content magangement software is such was the case for Gould has erected a discetable labeling system I think VRML could decompose if properply programmed to foucs set wise on his division of MILTONS. That is only my two Franklins worth and the idea that Gould was wrong to think that these kantian objects are "things" instead of potentials. If they are potentials both you and I could be correct. I dont think this makes this station or endemism "alive" however because on my side of this coin it reverts to LInne said about~ there are as many species as the INFINITE BEING. But In some failure to get this across I may have to resort more to your sort of space and time. Form-making and nanotech will tell.

Goddard Space Flight Center, Greenbelt, Md.
(Phone: 301/286-4044)
RELEASE: 04-017
A "HOT TOWER" ABOVE THE EYE CAN MAKE HURRICANES STRONGER
They are called hurricanes in the Atlantic, typhoons in the West Pacific, and tropical cyclones worldwide; but wherever these storms roam, the forces that determine their severity now are a little less mysterious. NASA scientists, using data from the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) satellite, have found "hot tower" clouds are associated with tropical cyclone intensification.
Owen Kelley and John Stout of NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center, Greenbelt, Md., and George Mason University will present their findings at the American Meteorological Society annual meeting in
Seattle on Monday, January 12.
Kelley and Stout define a "hot tower" as a rain cloud that reaches at least to the top of the troposphere, the lowest layer of the atmosphere. It extends approximately nine miles (14.5 km) high in the tropics. These towers are called "hot" because they rise to such altitude due to the large amount of latent heat.Water vapor releases this latent heat as it condenses into liquid.
A particularly tall hot tower rose above Hurricane Bonnie in August 1998, as the storm intensified a few days before striking North Carolina. Bonnie caused more than $1 billion damage and three deaths, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration National Hurricane Center.
Kelley said, "The motivation for this new research is that it is not enough to predict the birth of a tropical cyclone. We also want to improve our ability to predict the intensity of the storm and the damage it would cause if it struck the coast." The pioneering work of Joanne Simpson, Jeffrey Halverson and others has already shown hot
towers increase the chance a new tropical cyclone will form. Future work may use this association to improve forecasts of a cyclone's destructive potential.
To achieve their goal, Kelley and Stout needed to compile a special kind of global statistics on the occurrence of hot towers inside tropical cyclones. The only possible data source was TRMM satellite, a joint effort of NASA and the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency. "Many satellites can see the top of a hot tower, but what's special about
this satellite's Precipitation Radar is that it gives you 'X-ray vision' so you can see inside a hot tower," Kelley said. To compile global statistics, the radar needs to be orbiting the Earth.
After compiling the statistics, Kelley and Stout found a tropical cyclone with a hot tower in its eyewall was twice as likely to intensify within the next six hours than a cyclone that lacked a tower. The "eyewall" is the ring of clouds around a cyclone's central eye. Kelley and Stout considered many alternative definitions for hot towers before concluding the nine-mile height threshold was statistically significant.
Funding for the research was provided by NASA's Earth Science Enterprise. The Enterprise strives to advance Earth System Science and to improve the prediction of climate, weather and natural hazards from the unique vantage point of space.

Comment:
Again, look at this link:
Page Not Found
Consider that where the super cooled water is elongated in a field--which would be the displacement current in teh eye, or along the eye wall, you will have diffusing water vapor moving toward the less "zapped" forming cirrus, and that cirrus will have phase change energies, while the nearby zapped air will be relatively losing it. The surface wind moves at a high speed water vapor moves toward the surface low, but what we are really talking about is relatively warming air rising in a donut shape, which creates a vacuum in the "hole" of the donut, but does not necessarily describe the heat dynamics inside the eye. Indeed, cloud free, the eye allows heat to escape from space, and causes a high pressure region above the eye and permits good outflow in the upper level winds. But the surface low has no other explaination other than the explosive phase change energies organized by a lack of capacitive displacement current elongating the cirrus, which makes the clouds trap heat and give phase change energies more effectively compared to anywhere else on earth, really, and the clouds warm relative to other clouds, and rise to the tops of the troposphere. You cannot explain this by any thermal means alone, and frankly, as you go there--to the forcing of the EMFs--you must then include life, on this living earth, to understanding what a hot tower is, because life conditions allow, electrically, for these kinds of relative feilds to exist in the first place.
Think signal noise.

Brad, I am not sure I understand what you are saying. I am sorry, but it's too obtuse for me.

Re: A Cold Look at the Sun
Giddy up Go was written back in 66 or 65 by Red Sovine. It was a popular song, at least in the mountain states, during the '70s. Red Sovine lived from 1918 to 1980, and this truck driver music and country western music is what he wrote:
quote:
The highways that wind and wander
Over mountains and valleys,
deserts and plains,
I guess I've drove about all of
them,
Because for the past 25 years the cab of a truck has been my home.
And it'd be kind of hard for me to settle down and not be on the go.
Why, I remember the first truck I drove,
I was so proud I could hardly wait to get home and show my wife and little boy.
And my little boy was so excited, like when he saw his first snow.
He wasn't old enough to say too many words,
he just kept hollering, "Giddy up, go, Daddy! Giddy up, go!"
So that's what I named the old truck: Giddy Up, Go.
Oh, things wasn't too bad;
of course, I was gone a lot
And after about six years, I got home one day
and found my wife and little boy gone.
I couldn't find out what happened. Nobody seemed to know.
So from that day on it's been me and old Giddy Up, Go.
I've made a lot of friends at all the truck stops
and some of them would kid me about my little sign.
Of course, they knew where I got the name
because I'd told them about that little boy of mine
And how his first word about the truck was "Giddy Up, Go!"
Today I was barreling down old 66
when up beside me pulled a brand-new diesel rig, both stacks blowing black coal.
And as he pulled around and back in front of me
a big lump came in my throat
And my eyes watered like I had a bad old cold.
A little sign on the back of the truck that read Giddy Up, Go.
Well, I pushed old Giddy Up and stayed right on him
until the next truck stop where he'd pulled up.
I waited until he went in and offered to buy him a cup.
Well, we got to talking shop and I said,
"How did you come by the name on your truck, Giddy Up, Go?"
"Well," he said, "I got it from my pop."
"Dad used to drive a truck. That's what Mom talked about a lot.
You see, I lost Mom when I was just past sixteen,
and I lost all track of Pop.
Mama said he got the name from me."
I shook his hand and told him that I had something I wanted him to see.
I took him out to the old truck
and brushed off some of the dirt so the name would show,
And his eyes got big and bright as he read Giddy Up, Go.
Oh, we had a lot of things to talk about
and, buddy, I felt like a king,
And now we've just pulled back on old 66
and he handled that rig better than any gear-jammer that I'd ever seen.
Well, now the lines on the highway have got a much brighter glow,
As we go roaring down the road,
and we stare at that little sign that reads Giddy Up, Go.

Oil: The illusion of plenty By Alfred Cavallo
One hundred and twelve billion of anything sounds like a limitless quantity. But in terms of barrels of oil, it's just a drop in the gas tank. The world uses about 27 billion barrels of oil per year, meaning that 112 billion barrels--the proven oil reserves of Iraq, the second largest proven oil reserves in the world--would last a little more than four years at today's usage rates.
