Planet weather watch

Published on July 1, 2008

The solar system’s longest lasting storm is Jupiter’s Great Red Spot — raging on and off for 340 years, since Cassini first discovered it in 1665, shortly after Hans Lippershey invented the telescope in 1608. The high-pressure storm gyrates (in the opposite direction from low-pressure Earth hurricanes) due to Coriolis effects (just as on Earth) making a complete rotation every 6 days (2.5 times faster than storms rotate on Earth).

Ways of the Web … Deciphering Web 2.0

That’s the secret to a lasting marriage.
Respect one another & support one another.

Read what a post on fun_and_fun_only@yahoogroups.com recommends:

“Here is a girl, who is as much educated as you are; who is earning almost as much as you do;
One, who has dreams and aspirations just as you have because she is as human as you are;
One, who has never entered the kitchen in her life just like [...]
