My fav word of the evening: Grok
» As in: I can't seem to grok why some people hate Evergreen. I grok linden trees.

Mount St. Helen's VolcanoCam
» Pacific Seismograph Network Mount St. Helen's Update At 9:56 PDT (Tuesday) this morning, a magnitude 3.6 earthquake occurred at Mount St. Helens. This is one of the largest earthquakes recorded during the ongoing eruption, and it triggered significant rockfalls from the growing, extruding spine and from the crater walls. Plumes of dust and ash generated by the rockfalls rose slightly above the crater rim but dissipated quickly. Occasional similar rockfalls are likely to occur in the future, and if future earthquakes occur comparable to that this morning, they will likely be felt by anyone on the volcano. Overall, extrusion of the growing lava dome continues to occur in the same quiescent mode exhibited over the past year, and levels of seismicity remain generally low. Please note that since October 11, 2004, Mount St. Helens has been in a constant eruptive state.Telephone recordings with the latest update on Mount St. Helens and phone contacts for additional information can be heard by calling: (360) 891-5180

"Through Our Eyes" is a temporary art project that you can find in Downtown Olympia right now. It features the photographs of people who are living on the street. Several people without shelter were provided cameras, and their pictures and writing are displayed on silhouettes. You can find this installation on the corner of Capital and Legion Way. Go here to read about the genesis of this project.

Off the top of my head I came up with these... Louise DuArt (http://www.cbn.com/LivingTheLife/) Jerry Falwell Gary Ezzo The Pearls (www.nogreaterjoy.org and authors of To Train Up a Child) Pat Roberston James Dobson Lisa Whelchel (http://www.guardian.co.uk/g2/story/0,3604,1308220,00.html) I have no doubt that I will think of more but these are the ones that really freak me out. (I didn't put any politicians because they are all scary!)

Just finished watching the Egyptian Foreign Minister and Secretary Rice have their press conference. I'd say it basically confirmed that Egypt wants to see Israel disarm Hezbollah, although it's because they don't want to see Shiite fundamentalism take over the region.
