Weakened sunspots faded this week, and we were buffeted with more
geomagnetic instability, but without the dramatic geomagnetic storms
of the previous week. Average daily sunspot numbers fell more than
20 points to 12.1, and average solar flux dropped nearly three
points to 75.1.

A strong geomagnetic storm on Monday and Tuesday, April 5-6, was the
biggest since 2006, at least in terms of high planetary A index. On
those days the mid-latitude A index was 28 and 22, and the planetary
A index was 49 and 46. This was caused by a mighty solar wind
stream. A search for similar numbers over the past few years yields
nothing.

A Necessary Evil

I don't like ads.
You probably don't either.

Yet you see Google ads on this site, but I say I don't like them and I administer this site. What gives !?!?
Well, I'm glad you ask. Web space costs money. My money. Out of my pocket.
I don't want you to give me any money. If I can't afford to run this site, then I shouldn't run this site.
So I post ads. Whenever you click on an ad, I get a few pennies. Not huge money, but a tiny little morsel of a drop of money.
You can help me out by clicking on some of the ads. Then those few pennies will go to offset the cost of running this site. I will continue to pay out of my pocket, but I will pay less. That will make me happy.
I appreciate your clicks.
Thank-you.

BPL: City of Manassas to End BPL Service

After almost eight years, the City of Manassas has voted to discontinue BPL service.

Once touted as "the most successful BPL deployment in the nation," the City of Manassas has decided to get out of the BPL business, once and for all. At a Special Meeting on Monday, April 5, the Manassas City Council -- acting on a recommendation from the Manassas Utilities Commission -- unanimously voted to discontinue Broadband over Powerline (BPL) Internet service as of July 1, 2010 to the approximately 520 residents and businesses who currently subscribe to the service; these customers were told that they have three months to find a new Internet service provider.

According to Manassas City Clerk Andrea Madden, there was no discussion on the resolution to discontinue service and the motion was passed "without incident."
