Good morning little schoolgirl, good morning little schoolgirl, can I go home with you? Tell your mama and your papa, I'm a little schoolboy too.

I think it might be news time, now.

A glorious morning

The Morning Glory might be the coolest cloud on the planet. It crosses the Gulf of Carpentaria in northern Australia on many mornings in September and October. It can be 1000 kilometers long, two kilometers high, travel at least 60 km per hour and can be seen from space. Glider pilots gather in tiny, remote Burketown QLD hoping to “surf” the cloud. Here's a short documentary (30 minutes; best footage is in part 4). This kind of cloud also forms—with less predictability—over Sable Island, Canada, and off the coast of Western Australia.

Baby's First Internet

Baby's first internet comes amidst other, less illustrated, concerns about the all-consuming 'blogosphere' and increasingly online life. The problems, it seems, are somewhat novel and (one assumes) almost endless.

Tuesday Morning Quarterback moves to ESPN.com's Page 2. Err...moved. In April. (Other weblogs missed the move, too; apparently the only clue was a Best of Slate post.) I've always loved reading TMQ and I hope it's just as good at ESPN.com. Alternative viewpoint: TMQ Sucks. [Cross-pollinated from SportsFilter]

Saturday morning TV schedules from the 1950s to today.

Saturday morning TV schedules from the 1950s to today. TV Guide presents the saturday morning schedules for the big three ABC, NBC, and CBS. Although looking through the listings is a nice bit of nostalgia, what's really interesting is watching the rise and fall of pop culture over the listings. From The Beatles to I am the Greatest: The Adventures of Muhammad Ali to Mr. T to Ace Ventura.

Also starting in the 1990s, you can see the networks moving away from saturday morning cartoons. There are several factors, the main two being the Children's Television Act (enacted in 1990), and cable television. Which unfortunately has led to the births of such monsters as Saved by the Bell.
