NASA's Photo of the Day for November 26th, 2010
November 26, 2010 4:32 PMImage taken from NASA's website.
NASA website comments:
A beautifully clear day over Canada allowed the Moderate Resolution
Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) aboard the Aqua satellite to capture
several striking multiple true-color images of the island of
Newfoundland on November 12, 2010. Off the west coast, the island is
separated from the Canadian mainland by the Gulf of St. Lawrence and, at
the narrow northernmost point, the Strait of Belle Isle, while all the
other Newfoundland coasts face the Atlantic Ocean. Near the northern
tip of the eastern most peninsula, the city of St. John's is visible as a
long gray smudge on the land.

When you go out in the woods today ...
November 24, 2010 10:42 AM... you won't find this cute bear. He was in front of a St. John's house with the lovely Chinese lanterns in the back.
A fine bottle ...
November 23, 2010 1:11 PMIf the price tag is any indication, it should be. seen photographers are quite intrigued with what you can buy in St. John's these days. One already had a picture of a $2,800, another one found this:
Winter's here ...
November 23, 2010 1:04 PMIt's here more then when these pictures were taken in downtown St. John's this morning. And it's been in Labrador for a while.
Paradise pole problem ...
November 22, 2010 3:51 PMUmmm, seen readily admits it's no expert in street
design and construction, but this can't be the safest placement for utility
poles at Topsail Road and McNamara Drive through Paradise, can it?
In fact, there's a story behind this. You can hear it tomorrow when Cec Haire speaks to Paradise Mayor Ralph Wiseman at 7:15 a.m. on the St. John's Morning Show.
The Craft Association Fair
November 22, 2010 1:47 PMThis was the was the second, and final, weekend for this year's Craft Council of Newfoundland and Labrador annual craft fair.

Curiosity

He has taken photographs all along the way. Ted asked him about the interesting things he had seen, so he mailed Ted this image of a four legged robin.
Count 'em. There are four legs.

Sign of the Times
November 17, 2010 12:03 PMOne band? Three different bands? Old boy/girl friends? A new version of the seven dwarfs?
Double meaning
November 17, 2010 11:56 AMseen found this sign in downtown St. John's this morning. It's one of those signs that bears a second read, and that's the way it's intended. First off, a simple For Rent notice, then there's some odd language in it and then the realization that it's a campaign by the province's Human Rights Commission.
Singing for supper
November 16, 2010 10:57 AMseen came across this at Cochrane Street United Church.
As it turns out, Singing for Supper is a national tour that raises money for food banks, ministries and food programs.
The leaves, they are a falling
November 16, 2010 10:46 AMWe've had a pretty decent fall in the St. John's area at least, but the leaves are coming down.

International Food and Craft Fair
November 8, 2010 10:58 AMA celebration of St. John's multicultural community on Sunday. seen was there just as it was about to close, but was told there was a big crowd throughout the day.
A fine day
November 8, 2010 10:10 AMClear blue sky Sunday, warm temperatures, everyone outside. Hard to believe it was November.
Getting ready
November 5, 2010 12:53 PMseen got a sneak preview this week as crews in CBS prepare to install bronze statues at the CBS Monument of Honour in advance of Remembrance Day.
A question
November 5, 2010 11:51 AMSteve Dicker sent in this picture and wants to know: Whose lane is it anyway? Just west of Whitbourne the road signs at the passing lane tell two different stories. The first sign tells you that the passing lane ends in 300m (the correct sign), yet at the end of the lane another sign tells you that the right lane ends. Obviously, the road goes on, so both lanes cannot end. When one driver fails to yield for the other because the signs contradict each other, an accident waits to happen.
Sitting pretty
November 5, 2010 11:46 AMEven the day after Halloween, this perky pumpkin was perched on a St. john's neighbourhood porch.
Crickets
November 4, 2010 10:26 AMNormally this is a very busy spot in the morning. Today ... nothing. Metrobus members of the Amalgamated Transportation Union went on strike last night and set up picket lines this morning in St. John's.
Here's a snap of the line taken by Cecil Haire.
Vandalism time
November 4, 2010 10:16 AMSomebody was bored last night and decided to indulge in a bit of wreckage, leaving a mess in one of St. John's otherwise clean parks.
