Happy birthday, Dana!!!!

Happy birthday, Larry!!!

Our astronomy teacher posted this about an open house at RIT's observatory for the Lunar eclipse:

Hello Colleagues,

Hopefully you have heard by now that this Sunday's Super Harvest Moon will
be totally eclipsed by the Earth's shadow.  The last time we had a Super
Harvest Moon totally eclipsed was in 1982!  And the next time will be in
2033!!

This will be something you can observe where ever you are -- as long as you
can see the Moon.  However the RIT Observatory will be hosting an open house
starting at 8 pm if you would like to view it from campus (or have the
opportunity to 'check out' the observatory).  This will obviously be a
weather dependent event, though there will be a presentation around 8:10 if
it's cloudy.  Check out the observatory website Sunday afternoon/early
evening to confirm the event, to find a map to the observatory, and to find
the overflow parking lot.

The penumbral eclipse will start shortly after 8 pm EDT, the partial eclipse
will start a little after 9, but totality won't happen until 10:11.
Totality ends at 11:23 and the eclipse is completely over around 1:20 am.
The observatory open house will start at 8 pm and end by/before midnight.

Here are some websites you can peruse for more information on the eclipse:

Although the weather has been beautiful this week, it does get chilly at
night, so please dress warmly.

Cross your fingers for clear skies!

Cheers,
Stacey

PS.  Please feel free to share this event -- it's open to the public.

I hope he pulled a Quest and rid himself of a transmitter.  If not, fly free, little one

Happy belated birthday, Dale!!!

The co-founder of greentopia responded to this about a kid who took a fall in the gorge.  I responded too

I just sent them an email and mentioned there is nothing green about them except $$$$.  I also posted on their facebook and on 13wham (local tv) cause there commenters were gung ho.  I tweeted a comment with a picture and think it should be retweeted.  I am trying to think of people who are pro wildlife that could be contacted too.

I think sending them wildlife pictures is good but also going beyond them.  DEC should be notified and any supporters of greentopia. I told them in my email that I will not patronize any merchant that supports them. 

Lonsberry, a local radio host, questioned who owns that property and also felt greentopia does nothing it promises.  Also he said that it is a place people like to walk to and have a peaceful time or lunch and that they will not want to see ziplines.

Pictures of wildlife sent to media?  Rachel Barnhart and Matt Malloy?

I wondered if the sound was a red tail.  I like the Gustav name too!

I just absolutely love this narrative from Tracy!  So happy for Winston and his family!

This precious, brave baby   And though much has been said about Dorothy's age, she never neglected him and always was there for him.  Fly free, little Silver, you are much loved

Happy birthday, Shaky!  Glad it was a great day!

I hate that this has happened and that she was alone and hurting

That poor gardener but so glad Ninja was feisty!  what a great story with a happy ending- except for the plants!
