I think we have discussed this before, but I didn't realize the problem was so bad. Or is it? 31% sounds like a big number. But I see plenty of bees around here... http://finance.yahoo.com/news/mass-honeybee-deaths-getting-worse-174043044.html ______________________________________ Mass...

I recently got a letter from the town saying they will be reassessing all properties as the result of a mandate from Atlantic County and the NJ Division of Taxation. Fair enough, I don't have a problem with that. However the town says they are not using the "normal" method of contracting an...

...After another winter with no snow. We had a few times here with a couple inches, but I never even got out my snow shovel, just used a broom. Not complaining though. :) At least it hasn't been as warm as last year and things aren't blooming yet, so hopefully we won't get all the frost damage...

Driving down a small road near me this morning I noticed that someone had dug holes around many of the utility poles (phone/power). A little further down the road, a worker had a "kit" and was doing something in the hole, maybe applying a chemical or taking a sample? These were just shallow...

Just felt two pretty big shockwaves of some kind here, shook the house a little. Could have been a sonic boom maybe, but didn't seem like one. Anybody else notice something? Don't see anything on USGS list around here. It was about 4:32 or 4:33 I believe.

This is kind of cool - gives you a split screen view that moves and zooms in sync so you can compare two different maps. Also has a bunch of other features that I haven't tried yet: http://www.hillmap.com/
