schestowitz[TR2]                                                <p>Sorry for the interruption last week; I was on vacation. While I was vacating, my colleagues were in full-on fix-everything mode in preparation for the upcoming Plasma 6.1 release in a little over a week. And what a release it promises to be! I think this is going to be a good one, folks. Lots of great features, improved performance and smoothness, and oodles of fixes for all kindsJun 10 10:00

schestowitz[TR2]                                <p>The majority of US states have something called a "Department of Motor Vehicles," or DMV. Actually, the universality of the term "DMV" seems to be overstated. A more general term is "motor vehicle administrator," used for example by the American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators to address the inconsistent terminology. </p>Jun 10 11:31

schestowitz[TR2]                                        <p>In the right circumstances, these are what ultimately generate the pretty auroras in the sky, as well as the geomagnetic storms that can damage infrastructure such as power grids and orbiting satellites. </p>Jun 10 12:27
schestowitz[TR2]                                        <p> So what is actually going on to cause these phenomena? The northern and southern Lights are usually confined to very high and very low latitudes. High-energy particles from the Sun flow toward the Earth, guided by the solar magnetic field. They are transferred onto the Earth's magnetic field in a process known as reconnection. </p>Jun 10 12:27
