Aurora Alert for my Northern Friends

An event on the Sun occurred on the 7th of June. Prompt arrival of high speed particles has already affected the atmosphere. Our model indicates that the shock wave will reach Earth on the 8th of June around 5pm GMT. This will be followed by a disturbance in the solar wind that should produce fairly extensive auroral displays within 24 hr after that time.

For the Northern Hemisphere, the aurora should be visible mainly in North America, since the sun is illuminating most of the auroral zone in Russia and Scandinavia. If the timing is right, the disturbance will lead to auroras visible from the Northern US on the night of the 8th.

Antarctica will see the display even beginning with the shock arrival on the 8th. For Tasmania and Southern New Zealand it will be the 9th.

It is difficult to predict what the K index will be during night of the 8th in North America, but it is reasonable to expect K=6 which would put the aurora over Milwaukee, and visible on the northern horizon on a line from Portland Ore, southern Nebraska, southern Indiana, to Washington, DC.

Go to the auroral forecast page at: http://www.gi.alaska.edu/AuroraForecast

and watch the Short Term (1 hr) forecast. It will increase when the arrival of the disturbance is one hour away. It will also show you whether you can see the aurora from your vantage point, if you choose the map that shows your location.

If you are north of 55 deg latitude, it may be too light to see the aurora at night. Let us know of your success or failure and we will amend the section on the auroral forecast page called "Viewing the aurora in the Northern Summer".

Cane Bay 2011 Hope Haven Award

Hi

My Name is Steven Lee

Denise wanted to be here yet instead she is resting after surgery today.

This scholarship is continuing a tradition began in 2007 in Seattle Washington.

Each year we give a percentage of our profit to a senior in a creative program in our local high school.

This year we chose to honor a band student, next year it will be open to all fine arts.

As a requirement of the award the student must be recognized by his director as well as school administration for leadership, having good moral character a kind heart and financial need.

While there are actually several seniors who fit this classification, it was a difficult choice.

The recipient of 2011 HOPE HAVEN Photography scholarship for $250 is

Justin Simmons.

Hope Haven Photography Scholarship

Hope Haven Photography Scholarship lives on.

"Some days the road is lit and the way is easy, other days the path is dark and the going rough. Fear no darkness, be the lighthouse.

The storm will come and there’ll be no shelter, stand tall and let your light shine. Be the lighthouse.

It is said that which doesn’t destroy you can only make you stronger, free your mind and choose to be the lighthouse.

One thought can change the entire universe." - Steven Coffing

Continuing a tradition we began in Seattle, we are getting to award a graduating senior with a small scholarship to help with books, ect. This scholarship does not mean the recipient must take part in photography, just higher education.

Steven will be presenting the award tomorrow night at the Cane Bay High School's Senior award night.

Our scholarship award is based on Leadership, Good Moral Character, a Kind Heart and Financial need. There were actually several students who fit this criteria.

So the graduating senior from Cane Bay High School Band who will receive this award is..... Stay tuned.

Zoo keeper

“Outside England’s Bristol Zoo, there is a parking lot for 150 cars and eight buses. For 25 years, its parking fees were managed by a very pleasant attendant. The fees were $1.40 for cars, $7 for buses.

Then, one day, after 25 solid years of never missing a day or work, the attendant just didn’t show up; so the zoo management called the city council and asked it to send them another parking agent. The council did some research and replied that the parking lot was the zoo’s responsibility. The zoo advised the council that the attendant was a city employee.

The city council responded that the lot attendant had never been on the city payroll. Meanwhile, sitting in his villa somewhere on the coast of Spain or France or Italy is a man who’d apparently had a ticket machine installed completely on his own and then had simply begun to show up every day, commencing to collect and keep parking fees, estimated at about $560 per day -– for 25 years.

Assuming seven days a week for collections, this amounts to just over $7 million, and no one even knows his name.”
