Technorati Ping Problems abound

In my 104 day mission to get Technorati to ping Stars Over Washington once again, I'm posting this entry with Technorati code to "get the ball rolling" as they suggested.

Actually, the SO'W ball has been rolling since Oct 2005 and used to be auto-pinged by Technorati with my frequent posts. Code's okay, etc, but no ping can be found in their directory--104 days--ridiculous, even though my posts get indexed there.

And my shout-out of several weeks ago to anyone who knows what's up w'dat garnered no info, so this post is a new, if not last, resort.

It's discouraging that my other blogs ping nicely, thanks, but the one I put most time and effort into--this one--is shunted out of the Technorati mix. So here's the code to get the ball rolling and I hope it works.

Auroras from Atlantis!

Space Weather News for Feb. 9, 2008

SPACE STATION AURORAS: Astronauts onboard the International Space Station have been enjoying some colorful auroras this month caused by solar wind buffeting Earth's magnetic field. Some of their photos have just been beamed back to Earth and you can see them on today's edition of SpaceWeather.com

Earlier today, space shuttle Atlantis docked with the space station to deliver the new Columbus science laboratory, which will be installed during a spacewalk on Feb 10. As they work, the combined crews should be alert for more auroras. A solar wind stream is heading for Earth, due to arrive Feb 10 or 11, possibly sparking a new round of geomagnetic storms.

Meanwhile, the shuttle and the space station are putting on a show of their own. Last night, the two spacecraft orbited over Europe where photographers captured their flight. The space station has grown so large that amazing details are now obvious in the eyepieces of ordinary backyard telescopes.

Another meanwhile: Bush assures...er...someone, that John McCain is really really a conservative, really he is. No really--he is.

But after what the strong-arming Bush-Cheney regime and their GOP stooges have done for (to) America the last few years, a Bush assurance may not have the desired effect.

Unless you love war, that is. Then you're snugly in their pocket and McCain's your next neocon even if he can't run for a way-too-old-this-time second term.

Yet still the puppetmasters switch their machinations to back the Dems...and the dismantling of our nation continues under a new disguise. (Naturally they play both sides with so much at stake.)

So we'll see how different things really really turn out to be with the same old baldheaded globalists in charge.

It's only massive groundswells and landslides that will make a difference for America...The People must take back what's theirs for imperfect as America is, she's still the best.

Obama sweeps, Clinton weeps, Cheney creeps, 2008 leaps...such a busy year!

9/11 probe: Bush hid behind Zelikow

9/11 inquiry head 'tried to shield George Bush' Feb 5, 2008

The head of the commission that investigated the Sept 11 terrorist attacks had closer ties to the White House than he admitted and tried to limit the Bush regime's responsibility for the incident, a book claims. Philip Zelikow, the 9/11 Commission's executive director, allegedly attempted to intimidate staff to avoid findings that would be damaging to President [sic] George W Bush, who was running for re-[s]election, and Condoleezza Rice, his then National Security Adviser.

Well, of course he did. Otherwise the outcome of the 9/11 "Report" would've been completely different than the obfuscating whitewash that it was.

'They have permission to 'shoot to kill' in the event of martial law.' The FBI Deputizes Business By Matthew Rothschild Feb 7, 2008:

Today, more than 23,000 representatives of private industry are working quietly with the FBI and the Department of Homeland Security. The members of this rapidly growing group, called InfraGard, receive secret warnings of terrorist threats before the public does--and, at least on one occasion, before elected officials... One business executive, who showed me his InfraGard card, told me they have permission to "shoot to kill" in the event of martial law... This business owner says he attended a small InfraGard meeting where agents of the FBI and Homeland Security discussed in astonishing detail what InfraGard members may be called upon to do...

"Then they said when--not if--martial law is declared, it was our responsibility to protect our portion of the infrastructure, and if we had to use deadly force to protect it, we couldn’t be prosecuted," he says.#


Jude's Threshold now has a Page with the chart of the Aug 1, 2008 Solar Eclipse (10 South Series) which I will be updating with more details as time permits.

You'll see in the chart that on August 1 this Eclipse is RISING in Washington DC at 6:12:30 am edt. And boy is it. Plus, this is the Pre-natal Eclipse of the November elections so we'll want to keep our eyes on it.
