    Delta, Qantas, Air Canada Divert Flights Due to Solar Storm - BusinessWeek

    Airlines are at risk for a loss of communications on Arctic routes because they use high-frequency radios on flights in the region instead of satellite-based systems, said Doug Biesecker, a solar physicist at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Space Weather Prediction Center. Solar storms can interfere with the radio signals, he said.

    “This one is unusual because it's so strong,” Biesecker said in an interview from Boulder, Colorado. He said it was the 11th-most-powerful storm measured since 1975.

    No EMP problems!
    at the draft party a couple of years ago, and under a considerable haze, i heard Birdman yell out the following (about 4 or 5 times, i think) - "don't marry yourselves to players!" he went on to reiterate that idea more than once on the boards, and i believe it to be absolutely sage.

    Imagine him as POTUS with an open marriage. Every place he goes the Head of State will have a few hookers ready for him. Then, it'll be STD's he'll have to worry about.
