The Icelandic volcano Eyjafjallajökull has ejected large quantities of ash and sulphur dioxide into the atmosphere during its eruptions on 21 March and 15 April. Scientists from the German Aerospace Center (Deutsches Zentrum für Luft- und Raumfahrt; DLR) are evaluating satellite images to investigate the effects of the eruptions on the atmosphere.
Volcanoes as 'global air polluters'
"Volcanoes are 'global air polluters'. Gases and ash particles are frequently catapulted up to 15 kilometres into the atmosphere or higher. They are then transported by large-scale air currents, often over many thousands of kilometres," report atmosphere researchers Dr Michael Bittner of the German Remote Sensing Data Center (Deutsches Fernerkundungsdatenzentrum; DFD) and Dr Hans Volkert of the DLR Institute of Atmospheric Physics (Institut für Physik der Atmosphäre) in Oberpfaffenhofen.
With his team, Dr Bittner derives information from measurements performed by Earth observation satellites, such as the European MetOp-A and the American NOAA 19, which shed light on the shape and course of the gigantic ash cloud southeast of Iceland. For example, the instrument GOME-2 (Global Ozone Monitoring Experiment) on MetOp-A allows the observation of ozone in the atmosphere.
Satellite instruments reveal invisible gases
"GOME-2 also detects harmful gases that are invisible to the human eye - for example, sulphur dioxide," explains Dr Bittner. Using the satellite data, the scientists can determine the concentration of these gases in the air. Sulphur dioxide, for example, can remain in the atmosphere for a very long time. If it rises through higher layers of the atmosphere and into the stratosphere, this can damage the ozone layer.
"Volcanic eruptions have not only regional, but also continental or even global effects on the atmosphere. Ash particles do not only affect the safety of air traffic or the health of humans, they can also change the amount of solar radiation that reaches the ground," continue Drs Bittner and Volkert. Particularly fine soot particles could remain in the atmosphere for months and affect the temperature distribution. In addition, these soot particles can serve as condensation nuclei for cloud formation and thus likewise exert influence on the radiation balance.
"The satellite data provide little information on the eruption of the volcano," clarifies Dr Volkert. "However, the images give us crucial information about the direction and speed at which the ash cloud is spreading," he adds. It is still too early for an accurate assessment of the consequences of the Icelandic eruption. "In general, volcanic eruptions offer an opportunity to examine the propagation of trace materials such as sulphur dioxide, in detail. This was done, for example, in the 1990s after the eruption of Mount Pinatubo in the Philippines," explain the researchers.
International network for the study of the upper atmosphere
The ash clouds discharged by volcanos may also affect the higher air layers in the atmosphere, up to altitudes of about 100 kilometres. This mechanism is still relatively unexplored. For the current volcanic eruption, DFD has activated the international Network for the Detection of Mesopause Change. This network consists of 43 measuring stations in 21 countries and is coordinated by DFD in conjunction with the Schneefernerhaus Environmental Research Station in Bavaria. There are indications that the upper layers of the atmosphere are substantially more sensitive to climate change than the lower layers.

Acrobatic dancers Valeriy and Yulia blend grace and power (video below)
February 26, 2018
If you're a fan of amazing dance routines, you have got to see the video embedded below.
The video, "Hand to hand act by Valeriy & Yulia 745," which was uploaded to YouTube in 2011, shows off the unique dance stylings of Valeriy and Yulia.
Valeriy and Yulia are a dance team from the Ukraine. They specialize in hand-to-hand dancing, which means that during their routine, Valeriy and Yulia always have some kind of connection with each other via their hands.
Yulia is the perfect partner for Valeriy. She represents femininity and daintiness, while Valeriy, who dances bare-chested, represents masculinity and strength. In this particular video, they are dancing to Nneka's song "Heartbeat."
Through their graceful, yet acrobatic choreography, Valeriy and Yulia perform many amazing feats such as a balancing act where Valeriy balances Yulia on one hand and then on his neck.
Internet users have enjoyed the duo's talents more than 2 million times on YouTube.
User bansribb sums up the general consensus of all who have watched the video.
"There are no words to explain how incredible this is. But my god it is seriously unbelievable. Some of those lifts are incomprehensible, and these guys are both fantastic dancers in their own right too. Phenomenal."

Though both Sly and Hulsey are Madison lefties — click the tags below — Sly does a tough interview, with the refrain: People are "creeped out."
Hulsey has some stock phrases he repeats: it was "a potentially dangerous situation" (a boy was splashing 2 "little girls"), he'd been out in the "extreme heat" and wanted to "cool off," the splashing was "wild," "I admit I made a mistake," he "startled" the boy, in "a foot of water," the police officers "didn't write down a word" of his story, and he was "flabbergasted" that they wrote him a ticket. He tries to frame the story in terms of police abuse, and Sly practically shouts him down: Then why did you plead no contest?!
Hulsey's voice sounds whiny and sporadically spikes to a high pitch. He hedges about whether he flipped the boy's innertube over, but seems to concede it in the end.
Hulsey keeps saying he was not taking photographs of the children but of the sunset, but here's the location of the beach. Would that be a sunset vantage point on July 4th? The police report
(Here's the Isthmus article that Sly refers to. Here's our discussion a few days ago about the incident.)
Hulsey is the Democratic candidate for the Wisconsin state assembly — in my district. The incident occurred on July 4th, but the first we heard of the story was when the Isthmus story came out on August 29th. The primary was August 14th, and Hulsey is, conveniently, unopposed in the general election. Nice timing.
ADDED: Rereading the police report, I get the impression that Hulsey was trying to play with the children. The children said that Hulsey had his "arms up off to his sides and his mouth was wide open but making no sound" — as if he was "trying to sneak up" on the boy. According to the report, "Brett then 'shocked' [the boy] out of his inflatable so that he fell into the water." His hands touched the inflatable and the boy, and the man and the boy started splashing each other, with Hulsey saying "something to the effect of 'do you want to have a splash fight with me?'"
That sounds like a man trying to play with kids. The boy was "happy" at first, but soon felt "confused," according to one of the girls (as reported by the police), and the girl said that made her feel "strange" because she "didn't really know what he could do."
Now, that sounds awkward, and you can think about how creepy it is and whether you'd call the police if your kids told you about a man doing that (and then taking photographs). But here's the thing: If he was trying to play, why doesn't he say that? Why does he say over and over that he was dealing with "a potentially dangerous situation"?

Softball team returns solid core heavy on talent
Staff writer
The Hillsboro High School softball team probably will not look at the 2013 season as a title defense. The Trojans lost their entire outfield and the right side of the infield to graduation.
But Hillsboro still has plenty of returning players with plenty of talent.
"I think the girls come back thinking we would like to get back to state and see how we can do," head coach Stephanie Sinclair said.
An early emphasis for Sinclair is securing the middle of the defense. Lucky for Sinclair, the two most difficult positions are already filled.
Junior Danae Bina returns at shortstop. Sinclair said in her first week of practice following the state basketball tournament Bina has already dazzled with the glove, making diving and backhanded stops. Combine Bina's defensive ability with her speed and hitting acumen and she has all the tools a coach would want. While Sinclair cannot remember a time when a Bina blast actually cleared the outfield fence, she thinks her shortstop can hit for power as well. Bina hit third for the Trojans last season and is set to be a middle of the order staple for Hillsboro again.
"Danae will continue to get better," Sinclair said. "She has to be one of the hardest workers I've ever seen."
Sophomore Bradli Nowak returns at catcher. Nowak caught nearly every inning for the Trojans last year, including every inning during the state tournament. Nowak may split time with fellow sophomore Madison Klein, with the two players switching between catcher and second base, but Nowak definitely provides a calming presence for Hillsboro pitchers with her ability to block pitches in the dirt.
As a hitter, Nowak improved as the season progressed last year including a 3-for-4 performance against Chaparral during the state tournament. Sinclair said Nowak could also hit for average and power in the middle of Hillsboro's lineup.
Klein should be Courtney Weber's likely replacement at second base, but is competing with a few other infield prospects. She should move up in the batting order this year; she served as a secondary leadoff designated hitter for Trojans last season in the nine hole. Sinclair said the lefty hitter has improved strength this season.
The fourth player who could hit for average and power for Hillsboro is Tena Loewen. Sinclair has pegged Loewen as the foundation for a rebuilt outfield this season. She should take over in center field for Stephanie Sanders.
Loewen is a familiar face on the diamond, starring at the plate, on the rubber, and at shortstop her sophomore year. However, an ACL tear suffered during her junior basketball season kept Loewen on the bench all spring and summer. She was not cleared for athletic competition until the first day of volleyball practices.
"If you take a year off, anybody would feel rusty," Sinclair said.
Sinclair expects that rust to shake off quickly. With tremendous speed, Loewen has already shown the ability to cover a massive amount of outfield grass in practices. That same speed could be used to leg out singles on the base paths.
Like Bina, Loewen is a five-tool softball player: arm, glove, bat for average, bat for power, and speed.
"She can pretty much play anywhere on that field," Sinclair said.
One place Sinclair is going to put Loewen is on the rubber. Early on Leowen is set to take on the role of flame-throwing reliever for the Trojans.
"I like to know we can go to her if we need her," Sinclair said.
She may not be necessary if sophomore Allison Weber pitches like she did last season. Weber became Hillsboro's ace late in the 2012 season. It was a move that paid dividends with Weber pitching every inning at the state tournament, including all 13 frames in the 3-2 victory over Rock Creek in the championship game.
Weber is also a hard thrower, but has the ability to throw a drop ball for strikes to freeze hitters. In fact, Weber's greatest strength is consistently throwing strikes and getting ahead in counts.
When not on the rubber, Weber will likely play first base or center field for Hillsboro. She is one of four players with the ability to lead off for the team. Weber was a lefty slap hitter in the two hole for the Trojans last season.
Fellow sophomore Julie Sinclair will also pitch again for Hillsboro this season. Sinclair is a change of pace from Weber and Loewen, relying more on a mix of off speed pitches to get hitters out. She pitched effectively in early games for Hillsboro last season.
Sinclair is the likely replacement for Sammy Koons at first base. Along with Weber, freshman Shannon Heiser has also gotten looks at first base.
The other corner infield spot is locked down by senior Erin Loewen. Erin Loewen played all last season at third base and will reprise her role at the hot corner. Sinclair is also looking for Loewen to provide leadership as one of two seniors on the squad with Tena Loewen.
Erin Loewen received few at bats last year, being the Trojans' designated defensive player.
The remaining two outfield spots are up for grabs between junior Kalie Siebert and sophomores Emily Jost and Kennedy Lucero. None of those players has edge as far as varsity high school experience in the field. Sinclair said each player showed ability in limited plate appearances last season.
"With two defenders that are equal, I'm going to go with the better bat," Sinclair said.
Lucero may have a slight edge based on her pinch running experience last season. She became a player Sinclair could count on in key situations.
"She never got out because of a mistake she made," Sinclair said. "Knock on wood, she doesn't make those kind of mistakes."
The Trojans begin the season April 2 at home against Nickerson. The team then travels to Hesston April 5, with an anticipated date with the Swathers. Sinclair also said matchups with Pratt, April 26 at home, and Haven, April 30 in Haven will feature tough opponents.

About Lisa's Numerological Forecast & Personal Day Cycle
Just as Lisa McCune evolves through a nine-year cycle and experiences the nine-month cycle, she is also subjected to nine-day cycles, even though their impact is subtle compared to the Personal Year and even Personal Month cycles. The Personal Day cycles proceed according to the same pattern - 1 through 9 - that the Personal Year and Personal Month cycles do. The numbers within the daily cycles have a similar impact on Lisa to the yearly and monthly cycles - though less pronounced.

Traffic sucks, so why not start your morning off with some music? You provide the toast and we'll provide the jams.
If you've been following Bay Area rap for the past seven or eight years (YEEEE!), you'll remember that dude who made beats for The Pack and always sounded like he just landed from Mars. Well, it's Young L and surprisingly he still hasn't dried up his well of future space sounds, as you can tell from his new single 'Atari' off the album he's going to release in April.
Listen to these slaps, b*tch.

Fresh Harvest, LLC is Nashville's first and oldest online farmer's market, created by John Drury and Tallahassee May, two pioneers of the area's local agriculture movement. Started in 2005, the goal was to provide more vegetables and more variety to more customers, outside of the traditional CSA model.
Fresh Harvest is formed by two farms, Drury Family Farm and Turnbull Creek Farm. We are both small family farms located just outside of Nashville. Together, we have over twenty years of growing experience. We pride ourselves on producing a bountiful selection of fruits and vegetables picked at the peak of flavor and nutrition. We also love to grow flowers. By joining our farms together and working cooperatively, we are able to offer you a large variety of produce and flowers of consistently high quality.
We are your farmers! Not only do we do the growing of your vegetables, we also do the harvesting, washing, packing, delivering, accounting, and marketing. All of your produce comes right from our farms to you -we are accountable for all the produce we sell to you and therefore guarantee the high quality and freshness of our produce.
Our subscription service offers you fresh, local produce and flowers grown without chemicals. Our season is a year round service. Every Sunday evening, we email you our selection of available fruits, vegetables, and flowers, along with prices. You have until Tuesday night to place your order for a Wednesday delivery. You only order what you like, in the amounts that suit your needs, and you are not obligated to order every week. On Wednesday afternoons, you pick up your order at Trinity Presbyterian Church on Hillsboro Rd. in Green Hills. Pick ups are also available at our farms in Bon Aqua & Thompson's Station. We guarantee that nothing could be fresher, healthier, or more delicious than our produce and flowers.
To receive our emails, sign up on the "Your Account" page. A deposit of $50.00 is also requested before you place your first order. Your deposit works as credit for your account, and your orders will be deducted from that. Available credit is noted on your weekly invoice, and another deposit is required once the balance is depleted. You can place your deposit in your account via Pay Pal on the "Your Account" page, send in a check, or when you pick up your order.
We have available to you a huge variety of crops which change throughout the season. Since everything we sell is locally grown, our offerings vary with the heat, the rain, the insects, and other unforeseeable circumstances. We plant successive plantings of the most important crops for a steady supply, and typically any shortages are offset by the abundance of another crop. We do sell produce and products from other farms. These farmers are small, local, family operations. Almost all of them (except the meat and egg vendors) we first met while selling at the Franklin Farmer's Market more than 10 years ago. These are growers and providers we absolutely respect and trust, and are proud to represent through Fresh Harvest. Each week, you will be choosing from a delicious selection of heirloom and specialty varieties of vegetables and flowers. These include lettuce, salad mix, arugula, spinach, Asian greens, kale, Swiss chard, broccoli, tomatoes, cherry tomatoes, edamame, melons, green beans, eggplant, summer squashes, winter squashes, carrots, beets, sugar snap peas, cauliflower, fennel, sweet and hot peppers, potatoes, cucumbers, fresh herbs, corn, and okra! We also grow dozens of beautiful cut flowers. Ask for a bouquet of whatever is fresh every week!
Produce Grown Without Chemicals
Everything we offer is grown in accordance with the principles of sustainable agriculture which contribute to the soil, improve the environment, and produce healthy and nutritious food. We use cover crops, beneficial insects, succession planting, crop rotations, and organic soil amendments. All of our vegetables and most of our flowers are grown from seed using an Organically Certified, compost based potting mix, and we buy organic, non GMO seed as much as is available. We never use chemical pesticides or fertilizers. Our farms are either Certified Naturally Grown or Certified Organic by the USDA. The Certified Naturally Grown label is a national, non-profit, farmer- based organization that supports small farms which distribute locally and directly to consumers. It requires farmers to adhere to the same strict organic agriculture practices and materials list as the USDA Organic Certification, but does not expect the same fees and paperwork which are better suited for larger farms.
