New-cycle sunspot 1019 burst through the surface of the sun on May 31st and it has been growing rapidly ever since. This movie from the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO) shows the progress of the active region over a two-day period.

The sunspot's two dark cores are each about the size of Earth, and they are crackling with A-class solar flares. During years of Solar Max (e.g., 2000-2002) we would consider such activity minor, but now, during the deep solar minimum of 2008-2009, it merits attention. The magnetic polarity and high latitude of the sunspot identify it as a member of new Solar Cycle 24, expected to peak in 2013. This makes sunspot 1019 a sign of things to come.

* my - essence - being - light

FOUND via google: Man And The Sun

If you want to know, then I shall say so
My essence is not that I bring light to darkness
My essence is that I do so for all without discrimination
My essence is not that I give warmth and energy
My essence is that I do so for all without partiality
My essence is that my light and warmth embraces all
It discriminates not between a saint or one who has sinned
It discriminates not between one born black or white

Scant hope as search continues for missing Air France plane

If it is confirmed that all 228 people on Flight AF 447 are dead, it would mark the worst loss of life in Air France's history and civil aviation's worst accident for more than a decade.
