/www.nationalgeographic.com/ngkids/0308/hurricane/First, the National Weather Service addresses the work of the
National Hurricane Center "to save lives, mitigate property loss, and
improve economic efficiency by issuing the best watches, warnings,
forecasts and analyses of hazardous tropical weather, and by
increasing understanding of these hazards" (1). At this vast website,
users can find satellite imagery, current and archived advisories,
hurricane awareness information, and much more. FEMA created the
second site to inform the public about the hazards of hurricanes (2 ).
After discovering the physical characteristics of hurricanes, visitors
can find information about hurricane threats and the proper steps to
take before, during, and after the storm. The third website, developed
by the University of Illinois, discusses a hurricane's stages of
development, structure, and movement (3). Users can follow past
tropical cyclone activities and explore a 3-D hurricane. Next, the
Miami Museum of Science furnishes a fun site where children can
essentially travel inside a hurricane (4 ). Families who have
experienced a hurricane will benefit from the Healing Quilt link and
the family survivor stories. The fifth website, created by USA Today,
provides the general public with the latest hurricane news, storm
science, and safety (5). Visitors can view graphics of how hurricanes
are created and can submit their hurricane questions to the site.
Next, Florida State University supplies the latest advisories and
forecasts for hurricanes in the Atlantic Ocean (6). Users can view
images of the hurricanes and find a history of Florida hurricane
landfalls. Environment Canada produced the seventh web site to educate
children about how hurricanes form, how they work, and where they go
(7). Students can learn how El NiƱo affects hurricanes. Lastly, the
National Geographic presents children with an exciting article about
the work of hurricane hunters (8). Users can view images of storm
winds, paths, and damage. [From The NSDL Scout Report for the Physical

Hurricanes Don't Stop Spammers
Hurricanes Don't Stop Spammers
09/16/2004 05:14 PMFor years, the refrain has been that many spammers seem to make their
home in Florida, so when a few people noticed their spam levels
dropping recently, they assumed it must be
due to all those hurricanes in Florida. So are
spammers shutting down their servers and evacuating? Business Week
doesn't think so, though, a few of the spamming operations they
contacted in Florida did admit to taking a few days off. Still, it
looks like there was barely a dent in overall spam production, and
there are clearly enough spammers elsewhere to pick up the slack.

Xeni Jardin:
The return capsule from NASA's Genesis craft crashed in the Utah
desert this morning. From the
Wired News story:
The 420-pound space capsule was to have been plucked out of the air by
a helicopter and returned safely to earth. It was carrying solar wind
samples weighing less than 20 micrograms, which is less than a few
grains of salt.
It is unclear whether the samples have been destroyed. NASA officials
say that the sapphire, silicon and diamond wafers that were used to
collect the samples may have been shattered in the crash, although it
may be possible to piece them back together.
"It's a pit in my stomach," said Roger Wiens, flight payload lead at
Los Alamos National Laboratory in New Mexico, the creator three of the
instruments aboard Genesis. But Wiens was optimistic about the
opportunity of recovering samples. "It looks like its in one piece,
and we're going to get a lot of samples of solar wind out of there."
