Solar Eclipse 2010

First, sorry for not updating.  I've been moving, travelling, and vacationing (which means no computer, by choice).  It's been wonderful.

Moving on, we have a total solar eclipse on our hands here!  11 july, 2010 is a total solar eclipse, which the sun has so kindly decided to make in the middle of the ocean!  Ah well, those of us in South America (depending on where) will get to see some of it.  It looks like Argentina and Chile are in for a portion of it, but further east may not... I'm not really sure.  The time of it is supposed to be 18:15 - 20:51 UT.  (Which is about 15:15-17:51 in Eastern/most eastern S. America time.)

Because of this, the new moon is definitely a good time to start and set new goals, improvements, good habits, etc. you might want... I know I could think of a few good things for myself!

In other news, i'm planning on putting together a book for Herbs.  Yes yes, there are tons out there.  But i'm dragging this explanation out for dramatic purposes; bear with me.
This book is mainly for my own purpose, but I plan on adding a section to my blog for it too. Why should I do this?  Because being bilingual (Port and Eng), I find such difficulty when trying to find an herb in one country or the other, but you're not sure what it's called.  The dictionaries sometimes have more common herbs (basil, rosemary, oregano) but not always herbs such as (witchs hazel, feverfew, lemon balm) and you have to search the internet for inconsistent or even wrong information.  (rant off)
So, i'm in the works for a solution to this problem of mine!  Soon I can go to stores in US or Brasil and find what I need!
More later, you have my word.
