Friday Evening - March 19, 2010
Saturday is the vernal equinox, the day on which the north and south poles of the earth are equal distances from the sun (92.6 million miles).
At 10:34 a.m. PT Saturday, the sun will stand directly over the Earth's equator. The first day of spring is called the "vernal equinox," vernal meaning green and equinox meaning equal night — on the equinox the hours of daylight are nearly equal to the hours of night.
The 12 hours of both day and night actually occurs a few days before the vernal equinox, because the earth's atmosphere causes the light from the sun to be refracted when the sun is near the horizon....

Population of migrating monarch butterflies is lowest ever
Monarch butterflies, hit hard by strong storms at their winter home in Mexico, have dwindled to their lowest population levels in decades as they begin to return to Texas on their springtime flight back to the United States and Canada. The monarch loss is estimated at 50 to 60 percent and means that the breeding population flying northward is expected to be the smallest since the Mexican overwintering colonies were discovered in 1975.

Seventeen Indonesia volcanoes on alert BANDUNG, Indonesia, March 19 (UPI) -- Seventeen of 18 volcanoes in Indonesia are on alert status and emitting toxic gas, a federal monitoring agency said. The mountains are safe to visit as long as tourists stay at least a half-mile away from the gas-producing craters, Indonesia's Volcanology and Geology Hazard Mitigation Center said. The alert status is the second level of a three-level system of warning. The Ibu volcano in West Halmahera is the only one of the 18 volcanoes at the lower No. 3 standby level, Antara news reported. Mount Talang in Sumatra and Mount Karangetang in Sulawesi are the most recent volcanos to have their status raised to alert. Other Indonesian volcanoes on alert include Krakatoa, Bromo, Kaba, Anak, Slamet and Lokon. In 1883, Krakatoa erupted in an explosion equivalent to 200 megatons of TNT -- about 13,000 times the force of the U.S. bomb that devastated Hiroshima, Japan, during World War II.
