If the light from the supermoon keeps you awake throughout the early hours of Sunday morning, take a few moments or an hour or two and listen in to John B. Wells host Leonard Mlodinow on Coast to Coast AM about how we may be shaped more by the unconscious mind than the one that’s conscious. 

The supermoon rises.


Hopefully not a bad moon rising.


A beautiful scene from my window. Hopefully the view of the moon is just as wonderful where you are.. Moments like this make me just focus my eyes on the sky and wonder just what else is out there millions of billions of light years away that we will never know..

A space weather forecaster is warning: A truly damaging solar storm could happen soon, and the world is not ready

Not ready at all!


A few people have said over the years I’ve don’t this site that there have been too many solar updates.. so many sunspots, so little time. And I have stood by my fascination and fear of the sun since day one. 


Mike Hapgood’s conclusion makes me continue to fear the blast that do harm. Hope it never happens.. but people who stare at the sun long enough know it will.

Matt Drudge has a headline running tonight about the Obama campaign kickoff: 





I’d like to say maybe we just should call it half full?


Depends on your party affiliation I suppose.


Independents will just stay neutral.


Oh, by the way, Sunday marks 6 months until the election. And six months until your television, radio, newspapers, and internet will not be under a hostile takeover of campaign donors, big corporations, and politicians. Good luck. Clear the cache on November 7.

Dinner..


A distorted view of an Italian restaurant.  Not the kind Billy Joel sang of but the kind that a child can yell in. Ayden loves pizza.

New clues are being revealed in the lost colony of Roanoke Island..  Maps are helping.


The mystery isn’t solved yet. But researchers seem hopeful that they are close.

For years we have seen reports that Facebook is actually making people lonely.. what if, instead, it is actually making us more anxious?

FIGHTING FOR THE RIGHT TO PARTY

Sad day ..


And one that is making me feel a bit old to be honest.


With the death of Adam Yauch and the sudden “flashbacks” to Beastie Boy days of the 80s.



Indeed old time is a flyin’..


That same Boy that’s Beastie today tomorrow will be dyin’.



RIP Adam Yauch

Study: Amish farm kids "remarkably" immune from allergies..

Here’s a hint to those who laugh at the Amish: Maybe we should figure just what it is that they are doing right.

Welcome to the summer!
Box office blasts ready.. First up.. AVENGERS..
Already the film has scored the highest midnight opening of all time.. Record setting weekend coming? The full moon will be bright over crowds heading to see the first box smash of summer ‘12.. Feeling like a good year for movies? Maybe.. Insiders predict $172 mil for AVENGERS is possible. 
The film opening this weekend in 4,349 theaters strong.. 

Next week the box office mania continues with DARK SHADOWS opening in 3,700 theaters.. Can Johnny Depp and Tim Burton NOT freak out America enough to create a decently sized opening weekend? Time will tell. 


So who is going to AVENGERS this weekend?

At 11:34 p.m. EDT Saturday night, the moon will be about 221,802 miles from Earth. That's about 15,300 miles closer than average

Yes indeed.. the supermoon is coming.

Dr. Mary Neal from last year on Dr. Oz..


I just heard her the other night on Coast to Coast AM. Her story sounds profound.


But profound why? Because as a skeptic she now believes in near death experiences and God? Or because the brain convinces dying people that God exists…? I wish we knew.. ?
