The sun rose two days early – what!?!???

Wessie wants you all think about this oddity…  Breaking the Horizon – Two Days Early

Greenland-By Flickr user kaet44

 

“Several weeks ago, the sun rose two days earlier than normal in Greenland. This news spread fast around the world. While some people cried out that this was a foreshadowing of a 2012 disaster, others blamed global warming or optical illusions.

You may be thinking “the sun rises every day, why is this a news story”, but in Greenland the sun doesn’t rise every day. Days are dark for several months in the winter because of the country’s location and the sun is never high enough to break the horizon.

Residents of Ilulissat, Greenland, a small town on the western coast, see the sun every year on 13 January. However, this year the sun actually rose two days early on 11  January around 1pm.”  Read more  at  http://www.organicbugblog.com/

Wessie asks -” Is it becoming too warm? What are your thoughts on this story? Is global warming the cause or do you believe another theory?” Let him know in a comment.


Whimsy Wednesday

Well, Vabooms and Maggies nail polish has worn off for they had to go out and SHOVEL Snow and Ice again!  They are going back to Jollies Herbals for a new manicure. BTW, they ALL decided to match and went with pink (including Runcus!) After a visit to Jollies, everyone feels so much better! A little beauty goes a long way. Today drawing  is the “after” image.Unfortunately nail polish can be a big bad nasty for our health. Do you know many nail polishes contain Formaldehyde, Toluene and DBP (Phthalates which is called a plasticizer.) Luckily, there are plenty of other options out there without those “nasties” in them. This web site has a nice list: http://www.thechicecologist.com/2010/03/nail-polish/
