Confluences

Via Michelle at You Will Anyway, there's a very cool astronomical phenomenon coming up in the next few days for those of us in mid-northern latitudes, which will let stargazers see Mercury, Venus, Mars, Saturn, and Jupiter all without the aid of a telescope. Maybe the next time something like this happens, in four years' time, I'll have a car and be able to drive away from the bright lights of the city to view the phenomenon.

Planets aren't the only thing coming together for our viewing; just another reminder that today is a Global Day of Action against War and Occupation. Pretty good way to usher in spring. If you want to follow the worldwide demonstrations in the media, your best bet is probably foreign outlets 'cause, you know, the American media seems to have trouble finding protests. I'll be tuned into EuroNews, as usual.
