TODAY IN HISTORY
On this date:
In 1620,41 Pilgrims aboard the Mayflower, anchored off Mas
sachusetts, signed a compact calling for a “body politick.”
In 1831, former slave Nat Turner, who’d led a violent insurrec
tion, was executed in Jerusalem, Virginia.
In 1909, President William Howard Taft accepted the recom
mendation of a joint Army-Navy board that Pearl Harbor in the
Hawaiian Islands be made the principal U.S. naval station in
the Pacific.
In 1921, the remains of an unidentified American service
member were interred in a Tomb of the Unknown Soldier at
Arlington National Cemetery in a ceremony presided over by
President Warren G. Harding.
In 1966, Gemini 12 blasted off on a four-day mission with as
tronauts James A. Lovell and Edwin “Buzz” Aldrin Jr. aboard;
it was the tenth and final flight of NASA’s Gemini program.
In 1972, the U.S. Army turned over its base at Long Binh to the
South Vietnamese, symbolizing the end of direct U.S. military
involvement in the Vietnam War.
In 1992, the Church of England voted to ordain women as priests.
In 1998, President Clinton ordered warships, planes and
troops to the Persian Gulf as he laid out his case for a possible
attack on Iraq. Iraq, meanwhile, showed no sign of backing
down from its refusal to deal with U.N. weapons inspectors.

In mid- and late fall, we see different
phenomena in the atmosphere that we did
in late summer.
Back in September, thermals were vis
ible in the sky almost every day. Thick,
puffy clouds built up in the afternoon heat.
As the heated air climbed, it cooled and had
to shed some of its water vapor. The tiny
drops of liquid water made the
clouds visible. Glider pilots love
thermals because the air in them
can push the plane upward faster
than gravity is pulling it down. A
good day with strong thermals
can keep glider planes in the sky
for hours.
In November, Canadian air
dominates our region for days at
a time. Once the cold front that
brought it has moved on, condi
tions in North Georgia get very
dry. This air is from the continent, not from
an ocean. So it’s goodbye to balmy evenings.
Dry continental air doesn’t hold heat well.
As the sun drops to the horizon, the ground
surface cools down rapidly. The air that’s in
touch with it is cooled as well as the ground
radiates its heat out into space. This tends to
produce a common evening situation called
“temperature inversion.” In an inversion,
the layer of air near the surface is cooler
than the air above it. Normally, you’d find
the warmest air on the ground, getting pro
gressively cooler with altitude.
On an evening with clear sky, look into
the distance. You’re likely to see a grey
layer of air near the ground. That’s the
inversion, which can be some hundreds of
feet thick. Above it, the sky tends to be yel
low, orange or red, indicating that there’s
little moisture. The grey is caused by weak
condensation in the cooler air.
An inversion is the opposite
of a thermal. Instead of rising,
air remains stubbornly on the
ground. This isn’t glider plane
heaven. There might be some
weak uplift within the inversion
layer. You’ll still see smoke ris
ing from chimneys and outdoor
fires. But it can’t go past the
inversion boundary, which works
like a lid on a pot. So the leaf fire
that someone started in their
back yard will end up spreading smoke
across the neighborhood.
The good news about inversions is that
they don’t tend to affect commercial jetlin
ers significantly. Passengers won’t have the
bouncy flights that come with summertime
thermals.

ARIES (March 21 -April 19).
Understand more, fear less.
It’s not really a goal; it’s just the
natural result when you lead
with your curious mind and
follow up with your courteous
ways.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). The
good thing about envy is that
it gives people a window into
their potential that they may
not have seen before. We tend
to be envious of the things that
we have in us to accomplish.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21).
You’ll run into another one of
love’s paradoxes: You want
someone to put your happi
ness first, but this can happen
only when you put another’s
first. It works out best when
two people can be made happy
by the same sorts of things.
CANCER (June 22-July 22).
Sometimes it feels like you
against the world when it’s
really only you against a few
things that didn’t go imme
diately right. After you take
a breath and adjust your at
titude, try again; the world will
get on your side.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Your
style isn’t just how you dress
or what you own; it’s much
deeper than that. It’s a mood,
a tone, a way of moving about
the world. Your outside is
changing to reflect the new
style emerging in you.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Beauty
exists in the mind. It’s only an
idea, but it’s a contagious one.
You’ll see beauty and enhance it
with the quality of your attention.
Then others who didn’t see it
before will see it, too.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-0ct. 23). It’s
once again time to get rid of
some superfluous things. This
is becoming easier for you
because the benefits are so
rewarding. Eliminate what you
don’t need so that what you do
need will become clear.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Do
research before you take out
your wallet. You will either save
a bundle or wind up spending
about the same but feeling
much better about it because
you investigated other options.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec.
21). Sorrow is impermanent,
and faith is essential. Think
back to the younger you.
Wouldn’t you rush back and
share the message if you
could? Your efforts are not
in vain, and neither are your
dreams.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)
It’s one thing to get attention
and another thing to hold it.
The same goes for power, love,
money and any number of pos
sessions. Attaining tends to be
easier than maintaining.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).
You assume responsibility for
the fulfillment of your loved
one’s needs. Whether this
should be the case is another
discussion, though unques
tionably, you’re made stronger
by your caring efforts.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)
When does self-care become
self-indulgence? The differ
ence between what feels good
and what is good for you is
known by your higher mind.
Hint: Self-care counts toward
health; self-indulgence sub
tracts from it.
