Tonight on the CBS National News (Channel 2) they showed a really great shot of some "tornados" (sunspots) on the sun, and very close up. You could even see them swirling around. They didn't give a lot of detail, but I think that had to be one of the most impressive sun-shot videos that I have seen. I wonder if the speed was actual or sped up some..if that's the actual speed, then considering the size of the them- are really moving! Anyone have any more info on that story or links to the full video? While I'm at it here....I've been working on updating my website... Still working on it in fact, but could I ask that whomever cares to- go to it and check it out and check the links and stuff to make sure it is all working properly? www.FallenStarHunters.com If you find any problems, please let me know what browser you are using and what the problem is. Please send the message off-list :) BarrettWF@comcast.net Thanks in advance! -Barrett www.FallenStarHunters.com

I figured you were using the old-timey newspaper spelling from 1847. I don't think I'll be making it either gang, my son has come down with RSV. The good news is he is getting better. The bad news is he infected both me and Jen. It's pretty nasty, so I don't want to spread it around to you guys.. Enjoy it without me, I'll see you at the next one.

I just spoke with Rich Tenney. His father passed away and he will not be able to join us at L&O today. Rich, my personal condolences to you and your entire family. Hang in there. We'll see you next time.

What a great L&O meeting today, thanks to all who came! Ray, Joe, Cory, Kay, Norm, new friend Dave (I hope I remember his name correctly!), Mark, and myself. Did I forget anyone? Mark brought his new Moonlight focuser for his 6" f/10 refractor. What a fine piece of workmanship- I don't own a focuser that fancy or beautiful! I'm going to check out their website soon. It's going to look fantastic on a turned-wood tube. I brought my maple bino parallelogram and we looked at a few bricks with the 15x70mm bino, lol. Kay brought his home-made mylar solar filter for his telephoto lens. Too much high cirrus to see any sunspots, but it worked very well. Since we had several regulars called-away at the last minute this time, I'm thinking the next meeting should be a bit sooner- maybe early April? For those who don't like liver and onions, this meeting marked the first time when L&O orders were in the minority! And BTW Joe, your piece of liver was bigger than mine. I'll have to have a word with the proprieter that el presidente's liver must be larger than the sub-directors. ;-) Good to see you all again, hope to see you next time, if not sooner.

Excellent, fully comprehensive report, my faithful sub-director! L&O is fun stuff, people! On Feb 18, 2012 4:33 PM, "Joe Bauman" <josephmbauman@yahoo.com> wrote:

I might add to El Presidente Chuck's fine report that we had both liver-and-onion eaters and those with less highly refined palates, and got along splendidly. Among topic covered, besides those he mentioned, were World War I, World War II, Browning arms, an iPad-like gizmo that shows you what the sky is doing at any moment and in any direction, the fact that 2nd assistant sub-director Bau can't hold a "mad" for more than two days, the fact that Mrs. 2nd assistant sub-director Bau disputes that, Chicago, airplanes including Patrick's, the meaning of the marge of Lake Labarge, recitations of Robert Service, 1847 sourdough still cultivated, an astronomy club coup, sudden wealth, the reason Clark Planetarium is named that, Mark's new focuser (present and admired by all), the wooden telescope he's building, a wonderful handmade camera filter for eclipse imaging, Ogden Astronomical Society trip to St. George, and other stuff.

We missed you Larry; lots of interesting discussion, and if you'd been there the hams would have been in the majority... 73, Norm On 2/18/2012 9:11 PM, Larry Holmes wrote:

Mark can easily turn an adapter flange on his lathe. We discussed this. He first needs to decide on his tube details. It's going to be a beauty! On Feb 19, 2012 3:41 PM, <erikhansen@thebluezone.net> wrote:

Hi Mark,

Did you get a flange to mount the focuser to aluminum tubing? Was it a stock flange size?

Hope to see a good turn out today. I am bringing my new focuser that I have purchased to show. See you soon
