Q: What time is it? <br/>
A: It depends on when and who you ask(ed)<br/><br/>
Prior to the need to coordinate time over vast distances, I imagine that people generally used local needs and criteria for knowing the time. Perhaps the sun directly overhead was a good enough reference to communicate with others in the immediate community, relying more on relative time than an absolute fixed number.<br/><br/>
<a href="https://www.thoughtco.com/why-we-have-time-zones-1773953">The standardization of time as we have come to know it,</a> is a relatively recent enactment and was brought forward by the railroads in the 1800's. The necessity to coordinate schedules of moving parts over distances seemed to be a reasonable impetus for standardizing time. Yet who chose the reference point? The governments of Great Britain, a once colonial power and the United States, a rising economic power in the world, agreed on GMT. What about everyone else in the world?<br/><br/>
India objected. <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indian_Standard_Time"/>To this day has a single time zone for the entire continent</a>- splitting the difference between what would have been different 2 time zones into a single time zone that was offset by 1/2 hour. If you check to see what time it is in India, it will be offset from UTC (GMT) by 5:30 standard daylight time. <br/><br/>
China also objected and <a href="https://www.worlddata.info/asia/china/timezones.php">adopted a single time zone for the entire country</a>. Unlike India where it was a simple matter to split the difference between 2 times zone, China had to choose a reference for the standard. How to choose-- Geographical- select a place in the center of China's landmass? Or Beijing, the capital and the seat of power, which is located in the east.<br/><br/>
And now here we are again: Nobody likes changing the clocks but who decides whether or not we stay with standard time all year or daylight savings time all year. <br/><br/>
The absurdly named <a href="https://www.govtrack.us/congress/bills/118/s582">Sunshine Protection Act</a>, is the bi partisan Senate proposal which favors keeping daylight savings time all year. As if keeping the clock set an hour ahead actually accomplishes an extension of the sunlight. Obviously, all it really does is shift the fixed amount of light available away from the morning into the evening. So instead of the sunrise occurring at 7:30 AM (in this latitude, at least), it will cross the horizon at 8:30 AM. The trade off is beginning our days in the dimness of winter instead of ending them there at the close of the day. <br/><br/>
<a href="https://www.npr.org/2023/11/02/1210212060/daylight-saving-time-states-2023">As states are weighing in with their preferences</a> for maintaining Standard or Daylight Savings time, we have yet another opportunity to get nasty and dig in. <br/><br/>
This issue is so trivial compared to all the hatred, fighting and suffering happening right now all over the world. However, the reaction to fight for one's position with enmity is not trivial. Yet, here we are.
For now, with regard to Standard Time/Daylight Savings time, we will all (except for AZ and HI) move the hands of our clocks around- <br/><br/>
An act of cooperation and agreement, for the moment.

What's an Annular Solar eclipse and how is it different from a Total Solar Eclipse?
https://www.space.com/difference-between-total-solar-eclipse-and-annular-solar-eclipse
FYI-- The path of annularity, where the greatest amount of the sun is blocked by the moon, runs from Oregon to Texas. “So viewers in the Bay Area will not see the full eclipse, but rather only a partial eclipse, with the Moon appearing to take a ‘cookie bite’ out of a portion of the Sun"-- Gerald McKeegan, Chabot Space and Science Center.

For anyone who missed celebrating (or mourning) the Equinox on the 22nd, there is another opportunity to balance on the tipping edge of light into darkness on the Equilux—which is the actual day of equal day and night—It depends on your location in the world in relation to the Equator- For those of us in the Bay Area, it’s <a href="https://ourplnt.com/equilux-equinox/">tomorrow September 26th</a> <br/>

Another Equinox performance of Wendy Reid's magical <a href="https://treepieces.net/home/">tree piece #66 “ambient bird 433”</a> returns again to Live Oak Park on the Fall Equinox <br/> - a few minutes before sunset.
<br/>Thanks to all the performers and audience members who shared their attention, dogs and grey parrots with us. Love and special thanks to Wendy and lulu.

<a href="https://treepieces.net/home/">Ambient Bird with sfSOUND and the Bird Ensemble</a> returns again to Live Oak Park on the Fall Equinox <br/>
Friday September 22, 2023 - 6:15pm <br/>
Live Oak Park is located at 1301 Shattuck Ave in Berkeley. The
precise location of the performance will be just north of the
recreation/theatre building, near the creek under the trees. There
is no formal seating: stand and watch or wander, sit on the grass,
ground, steps, distant picnic tables or bring your own chair/
blanket. <br/>
At 6:15pm (preceding the performance), there will be an
introduction of the musicians and their instruments. <br/>
Sunset is at 7:04 PM. We will ring the sundown with dailybell.

Looking towards the Freedom Tower, the view now blocked by the trees that have grown up since 2001. A quick thunder and lightning storm just passed, clearing the air and opening to the blue and gold sky just above.

"Did you see the moon?" Norman from San Francisco to me in Brooklyn. And sadly I didn't see it here!!! The big beautiful blue supermoon. I won't be holding my breath until next time since it won't occur again until 2037.
I miss my friends and neighbors and the dogs from San Francisco, too!!

<br/>It looks so nice and foggy and cool there. Still muggy here in Brooklyn, though I am missing that big loud bell.
<br/>Welcome back from your summer with your family, Tony!! It looks so nice and foggy and cool there.

The corner of Bedford and Broadway on this hot steamy Friday evening. This neighborhood now has a smoke shop on every block (literally), and the beginning of the weekend around here amps up what has become the iconic smell of this neighborhood - everyday - all day.
