Sunrise/Sunset updated with Chilliwack

30 11 2008

I wanted to update my best graph ever to include sunrise/sunset times for Chilliwack to check to see if the sun goes down especially early here (it doesn’t). I was also able to clearly see the newly minted DST times:

From wikipedia:

US and Canada observe DST from the second Sunday in March to the first Sunday in November, almost two-thirds of the year. The 2007 U.S. change was part of the Energy Policy Act of 2005; previously, from 1987 through 2006, the start and end dates were the first Sunday in April and the last Sunday in October.

You can see that clearly has increased the amount of DST. I vastly prefer DST to not because I’d much rather have an hour of extra daylight in the evening and trade off the upcoming sun at 7am.

I guess that would have the adverse effect of ‘High Noon’ actually being ‘High One’ – I can deal with that.

Latitudes:
Montreal 45°30′N = 45.5°N
Chilliwack 49°09′N = 49.16°N
Saskatoon 52°07′N = 52.12°N

    SLC > MSP - I can like Soderbergh, I want to like Carano and the supporting cast is pretty awesome but this movie felt like a big miss. The acting was not great (that was expected), the story was incomprehensible and could only be traced by action scene to action scene and the characters were very under-developed. The stunts were (probably) all done by Carano which for the fighting scenes was pretty cool but lots of the other stuff felt like it could have been better. All told, I'd love to see her in more movies (or a tv show) even though this one was not that great.

    Good performances, interesting characters, good location, and a simple story well told. All that said, I liked it, but I didn't love it. Best quote was, "Give you kids enough money to do something but not enough to do nothing."

    An honest look at the most successful but certainly not the most loved athlete in UFC history, Anderson Silva.

  • Air Guitar Nation (2006) 7/10

    Documentary about the rise of Air Guitar in the States and it's popularity worldwide. The first few minutes it seems to be really bizarre to be taken so seriously but by the end it begins to seem much more normal.
