Solar Storms Scientists believe another solar flare from the sun could reach our planet over this weekend. Experts warn the coronal mass injection could have the potential to cause power disruptions on earth. The solar blast, also referred to as a CME, was first noticed on November 24, just two days ago.

America Still Feels Pretty Free To Me
Freedom While many people may swear that our freedoms are disappearing, the country still feels pretty free. If I wanted to, even at this late hour of the day, I could get up and go for a drive. The ability to go out and clear one's head is a freedom that we take for granted. People should remember, their voices are theirs, but the ability to use those voices on a platform is something other countries control. Speaking out against the government in other countries is not allowed. In certain countries, people are taken from their homes and incarcerated for speaking against the government.

Paradise In Purgatory
Heat beat down on the Marakesh, raising the internal temperature of the rusted, broken hull to well over one hundred degrees. It sat adrift along the shore of an island in the south seas where it had sat for days. The Marakesh was on her last leg long before leaving port. The rusted old heap of metal, barely staying afloat, was torn along the bottom and, the hole in the side was from an attack by pirates. It was one of the last known acts of international piracy in the 20th century.
