I'm glad Shadz is recovered and happily snoring. What kind of hairstyle is Meegz thinking of, does she have short hair or long? I think long hair looks lovely with flowers woven through it... </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/22213/page/2#post-461468 Wed, 21 Oct 2009 03:40:09 +0000 Moonshadow_NZ 461468@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Hi Jcat, hope you're still there, got side tracked on looking at wedding hairstyles.

The "shooting stars" develop when bits typically no larger than a pea , and mostly sand-grain-sized, vaporize in Earth's upper atmosphere.</p> <p>"Flakes of comet dust hitting the atmosphere should give us dozens of meteors per hour," said Bill Cooke of NASA's Meteoroid Environment Office.</p> <p>People in cities and suburbs will see far fewer meteors, because all but the brightest of them will be overpowered by light pollution. The best view will be from rural areas (the moon will not be a factor, so dark skies will make for ideal viewing).</p> <p>When and how to watch</p> <p>The best time to watch will be between 1 a.m. and dawn local time Wednesday morning, regardless of your location. That's when the patch of Earth you are standing on is barreling headlong into space on Earth's orbital track, and meteors get scooped up like bugs on a windshield.</p> <p>Peak activity, when Earth wades into the densest part of the debris, is expected around 6 a.m. ET (3 a.m. PT).</p> <p>Some meteors could show up late tonight, too. Late-night viewing typically offers fewer meteors, however, because your patch of Earth is positioned akin to the back window of the speeding car.</p> <p>The Orionids have been strong in recent years.</p> <p>"Since 2006, the Orionids have been one of the best showers of the year, with counts of 60 or more meteors per hour," Cooke said.</p> <p>Some of those counts come in flurries, so skywatchers should find a comfortable spot with as wide a view of the sky as possible. Lie back and allow 15 minutes for your eyes to adjust to the darkness, then give the show at least a half hour to play out through spurts and lulls. Meteors could appear anywhere in the sky, though traced back they will appear to emanate from the constellation Orion.</p> <p>Telescopes and binoculars are of no use, because meteors move too quickly. Extra warm clothing is a must, and a blanket and pillow or lounge chair allows comfortable positioning so you can look up for long stretches.</p> <p>Reliable event</p> <p>Predicting meteor showers is tricky because the debris comes from multiple streams.</p> <p>Each time comet Halley passes around the sun on its elongated orbit – every 76 years – it lays down a fresh track of debris for Earth to plow through in subsequent years. Those tracks spread out and mingle over time, and we pass the tracks each October during our 365-day, nearly circular trek around the sun.</p> <p>Japanese researchers Mikiya Sato and Jun-ichi Watanabe say activity in recent years is related to debris put in place from 1266 BC to 911 BC, and this could be another good year, according to NASA.</p> <p>Even if that prediction does not hold, the Orionids will almost surely put on a decent show. Prior to 2006 and going back many years, the Orionids have produced a reliable 15 to 20 meteors per hour at the peak, for skywatchers with dark skies. </p> <p>As a bonus, this time of year you can expect an additional five to 10 sporadic meteors per hour – those not related to the shower. </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/22213#post-461443 Tue, 20 Oct 2009 20:30:21 +0000 AV 461443@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>..... awwwwww ((((huggs)))) WWWM!...... such great memories, thanks for sharing!.... that was a special time, and special music!..... we can all benefit from those memories!....</p> <p>...... yawn!... heading out to bed also... good night all!...... </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/22213#post-461440 Tue, 20 Oct 2009 20:24:54 +0000 WillowandWindismom 461440@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>OMG, y'all - okay, I know that I am dating myself, but the Kingston Trio show was just so great! It brought back so many memories of the music before the British Invasion hit. They sang for like two hours and so many of the songs that all of you would know, but you may not know who recorded the songs. I guess the one that almost brought me to tears was Where Have All the Flowers Gone. It could be written about today and I remember so well listening to that in the early Vietnam years and just crying. Of course the guys that we saw tonight are not the original Kingston Trio, but worked with them and they have the same great harmony as the originals. Actually, the Kingston Trio was in their heyday around 1960 - before the Beatles. Lots of Peter, Paul and Mary's songs are actually Kingston Trio.</p> <p>Bumblebee, when I first met Mr. WWM he had a 12 string guitar and played it beautifully. He named it Judy for Judy Collins. He had that guitar longer than me but when we moved from Ft. Belvoir, VA to West Point, NY it was stolen. Along with just about everything else that we had of value (which wasn't much). He's never played the guitar since, which makes me so sad because he was so good.</p> <p>Well gang, I am off to bed. We are leaving tomorrow to take our bikes to Central Texas to the hill country. Have to get up early to pack.</p> <p>Take care, and watch out Tom Dooley! </p> http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/topic/22213#post-461424 Tue, 20 Oct 2009 19:30:10 +0000 KapitiKats in NZ 461424@http://www.dailykitten.com/chat/ <p>Good luck finging your shorts, Cheri!
