Huh, one would think that hundreds of billions of tons of the suns corona bearing down on the little bitty earth at hundreds of thousands of mph would at least spark a bit of interest...
Oh well, maybe I should have made that thread about commie lesbians on the lamb instead. Damn thread limits! Damn them!
Anyway, I'll try to find a link.
(To the CME thing)

Potential disruption to communication satellites today
Forecasters at the NOAA Space Environment Center have warned that there could be disruption to satelitte systems today due to the arrival of a coronal mass ejection, or CME in the Earth's magnetic field. The mass ejection from the Sun's surface was observed on Wednesday and further erruptions are expected over the next couple of weeks. The disturbance was expected to produce a geomagnetic storm rated G-3. A G-5 storm is the strongest.
NOAA Region 484 developed rapidly over the past three days and is now one of the largest sunspot clusters to emerge during Solar Cycle 23. It is about 10 times larger than the Earth. This region, which is nearing the center of the sun, already produced a major flare, R-3 on the NOAA Space Weather Scales, producing a radio blackout on October 19 at 12:50 p.m EDT.
Larry Combs, a forecaster with the NOAA Space Environment Center’s Space Weather Operations, said that this region has developed rapidly over the last three to four days. “It’s somewhat unusual to have this much activity when we’re approximately three-and-a-half years past solar maximum,” he said. “In fact, just last week, solar activity was very low with an almost spotless sun.” Solar cycles of high and low activity repeat about every eleven years, and the sun has been moving towards solar minimum for the past three years.
Further major eruptions are possible from these active regions as they rotate across the face of the sun over the next two weeks. Satellite and other spacecraft operations, power systems, high frequency communications, and navigation systems may experience disruptions over this two-week period.
The solar corona material is massive in size (they can occupy up to a quarter of the solar limb), and frequently accompanied by the remnants of an eruptive prominence, and less often by a strong solar flare. Just hours after blowing into space, a CME cloud can grow to dimensions exceeding those of the Sun itself, often as wide as 30 million miles across. As it ploughs into the solar wind, a CME can create a shock wave that accelerates particles to dangerously high energies and speeds
A CME was blamed for knocking out the Galaxy IV telecommunications satellite in May 1998 (although the satellite's maker, Hughes, has blamed a "random event"). That satellite failure temporarily disabled millions of pagers and other communications devices across the USA.

Zylka, you should head for your back yard bunker. You have built a back yard bunker, haven't you?

Pillage the lands of good folks such as this? I think not.

"so you are saying I should rape and pillage to my hearts delight tomorrow?"
You must have gotten some bunker options that I missed.

This was my post-posting reading material:
quote:
The temperature of Heaven can be rather accurately computed from available
data. Our authority is Isaiah 30:26, "Moreover, the light of the Moon
shall be as the light of the Sun and the light of the Sun shall be sevenfold,
as the light of seven days." Thus Heaven receives from the Moon as much
radiation as we do from the Sun, and in addition seven times seven (49) times
as much as the Earth does from the Sun, or fifty times in all. The light we
receive from the Moon is one ten-thousandth of the light we receive from the
Sun, so we can ignore that. With these data we can compute the temperature
of Heaven. The radiation falling on Heaven will heat it to the point where
the heat lost by radiation is just equal to the heat received by radiation,
i.e., Heaven loses fifty times as much heat as the Earth by radiation. Using
the Stefan-Boltzmann law for radiation, (H/E)^4 = 50, where E is the absolute
temperature of the earth (-300K), gives H as 798K (525C). The exact
temperature of Hell cannot be computed, but it must be less than 444.6C, the
temperature at which brimstone or sulphur changes from a liquid to a gas.
Revelations 21:8 says "But the fearful, and unbelieving ... shall have their
part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone." A lake of molten
brimstone means that its temperature must be at or below the boiling point,
or 444.6C (Above this point it would be a vapor, not a lake.) We have,
then, that Heaven, at 525C is hotter than Hell at 445C.

Don't recall any hooker...unless you're talking about that one I had in the army when I was 17 years old...?
