Alaska Solstice: It's All Downhill from Here
2008-12-22 10:00:00 Yesterday was officially the Shortest Day of the Year.Not that those of you living in Tuscon think much about little things like your daily sunlight dosage but yesterday the sun rose at 10:14 am and set at 3:41 pm for a total of 5 hours, 26 minutes, 57 seconds of daylight. The solstice always feels a bit like a false start because in my mind it means we should begin to feel things progressing toward spring when instead we aren?t even into the deepest, coldest part of winter yet.It doesn?t make a lot of sense to me?if the days start getting longer come December 22 why doesn?t the weather start getting warmer? June, the month of the summer solstice where we get our longest day of the year, is also the hottest month of the year and has the best weather. Why then should we have the cruel irony of having the winter solstice come a month or two before we even get into the hardest, nastiest part of winter? We?re being cheated I tell you.It?s really not fair. If all the winter were like...

Happy Winter Solstice
2008-12-21 22:16:00 And here's a cake to celebrate it! Or rather, it's the table on our deck that we failed to put away before the snowstorm. The winter has barely started and we've been hit by a massive ice storm, and now non-stop snow for three days. It is still snowing heavily as I write this, and the cake will likely get taller, but being the Winter Solstice, the sun sets at 4:16pm today. I was thinking that it was unfortunate that we took our Disney vacation before winter started, and now we have the whole dreary winter to follow with nothing to look forward to. No wonder why everyone wants to go in February. And then I realized that had we gone just one week later, we would have had trouble flying in during the ice storm. And two weeks later, this snowstorm would sure have put a crimp on air travel. After the ice storm, Adam's school was closed on Monday and Tuesday last week to allow continual clearing of the roads. People were still out of power and the middle s...

Winter Solstice 2008 caught in cat's rhyme

GM to cancel Solstice & Sky...???!!!
2008-09-03 14:16:00 No sooner did we post about the current Solstice and Sky when word comes from GM Inside News that the next generation cars have been cancelled. Follow the link in the title of this post to the original article. As we wrote our post last week... one thing bothered us. The fact that we rarely saw a Solstice or Sky on the dealer lot, much less a new ones on the street. Could their terrible ergonomics and lousy truck-based transmission have caught up with them? And what are the ramifications of yet another Lutz failure?
Solstice-Sky Suspension
2008-09-01 23:08:00 We had an opportunity a few days ago to poke our heads under a Saturn Sky (identical to the Solstice) and look around. We're not a big fan of the car because the ergonomics and design are about as appealing and well-done as a late-eighties Camaro.. Functionally there are some good elements - but bad they are hidden inside a body and seating position that you can't see out of or sit in... The front brakes are a decent size, although they look lost in the 18" rims. The rears are the problem - solid discs. The bane of road racers. The diff and single exhaust pipe (dual outlets on the turbo model). Note that the diff is finned aluminum - a very good move. Rear suspension - I was surprised to see Bilsteins on a base automatic-equipped model. Very nice. Rear suspension - note the aluminum upper and lower control arms. Very very strong - probably overkill for the amount of power the car has in it's current generation. Note the concentric bolt o...

Summer Solstice Sunrise Stone
2008-04-13 07:11:00 Summer Solstice Sunrise Stone, originally uploaded by **amber_**. it was pretty much overcast with scattered showers the whole time I was out today. But the sun decided to make a most brief appearance so I could take this picture - most accommodating. Odd that it decided to say "hello" when i came across the Summer Solstice stone - it was almost like it was saying "Hey, Amber.. stay tuned... I'm almost there".___________________-_______________________________-________________From Wikipedia:The site's history is muddled partly because of the activities of William Goodwin, who became convinced that his Mystery Hill was proof that Irish monks (the Culdees) had lived there long before Christopher Columbus, a concept he sought to publicize. He moved many of the stones around from their former positions to better support his idea, thus obliterating a good deal of the archaeological record. The site's current owners, the private company America's Stonehenge Foundatio...

Pontiac Solstice Coupe (with targa top) unveiled
2008-03-19 05:53:00 Pontiac Solstice Coupe (with targa top) unveiled In October, Leftlane exclusively reported GM was planning to launch a hardtop "targa" version of its popular Pontiac Solstice. That day has finally come. Called the Solstice Coupe, the new model will be on display at the New York Auto Show on Wednesday. Production will start in January of 2009 at GM's Wilmington plant. Production may be limited to as few as 10,000 units annually. Accordingly, the car will likely be marketed as a 2010 model. Production may be limited to as few as 10,000 units annually, though nothing has been confirmed. The coupe is powered by a standard 2.4-liter Ecotec four-cylinder engine that generates 173 horsepower, while the GXP version is equipped with a 2.0L turbocharged Ecotec engine with 260 horsepower. Because the change to a coupe body style resulted in only a slight increase in curb weight, no drivetrain or suspension changes were necessary to shift from the convertible body str...

Pontiac Solstice Targa to debut this month
2008-03-05 19:49:00 Pontiac Solstice Targa to debut this month Back in October, Leftlane exclusively reported GM was planning to launch a hardtop "targa" version of its popular Pontiac Solstice two-seater. Now, multiple sources are reporting the car will debut at the end of the month in New York. The vehicle will be on display at the New York Auto Show in two weeks.

Production may be limited to as few as 10,000 units annually. Possible debut venues would include SEMA '08 or LAIAS '08. The Solstice will have a traditional Targa setup, with the panels directly over the driver and passenger's head being removable. Buyers might even have the choice of hard or soft removable panels. It's probably safe to assume the trunk will be mildly reconfigured for a system to stow...

Winter Solstice Labyrinth Walk…
2008-01-02 04:01:00 Winter Solstice is behind us and the light of spring soon to come. I for one could not be happier to be on the downward spin towards the light. The last several years I’ve paid more attention to changes in the seasons and special times of the year, older cultures than ours welcomed with festival. One of the events I added this Winter Solstice was a Labyrinth Walk.According to “Walking a Sacred Path; Rediscovering the Labyrinth as a Spiritual Path” by Lauren Artress, Labyrinth’s date back 4,000 years and have been a part of every religious or spiritual culture known to man. Created and tied to sacred geometry yet differing from a maze as it has no “dead ends” and is one continuous path to the center and back out.The Labyrinth above is the classic Chartres Labyrinth, laid in the cathedral floor around 1,200 AD and is similar to the small scale version I walked on the Winter Solstice. As mentioned above, Labyrinth’s have touched many faith...
