Spanish Quotes

“La manera mas baja de amar a la propia patria es odiar las patrias de otros hombres, como si todas no merecieran engendrar en sus hijos iguales sentimientos.”

"The way to love less than one's own country is to hate the homelands of other men, as if all do not deserve their children engender the same feelings." (English Translation)

Here are some COOL Illusions

I thought "Dr. Angry and Mr. Smiles" was a cool illusion. I also liked "Right Brain vs. Left Brain". Although that one may have seemed impossible at first, the woman can truly be seen rotating clockwise and counter-clockwise! It also took me a while to figure out the "Scary Illusion", but then all of a sudden it seemed so obvious. Just keep on staring and you'll see how.

Weather Report

Chilly weather will likely grip the Houston region for the new few days as a cold air settles in the area.The overnight lows may dip just below freezing in Houston later this week, but in rural areas north of the city near Conroe and Huntsville overnight temperatures will likely drop into the upper to mid 20s, according to the National Weather Service. Forecasters said the area gradually warms up through the weekend and a slight chance of showers is possible Sunday. Tuesday, the high temperature will top out near 48 degrees under cloudy skies. The overnight low will be about 34. North winds will be between 10 mph and 15 mph. Scattered drizzle is possible. Skies clear Wednesday, when the high will climb slightly to 51. But the overnight low dips to 31. Freezing temperatures are likely for several hours late at night, forecasters said. More sun is on tap and temperatures climb Thursday and Friday. The highs will range between the upper 50s and about 60 degrees. The overnight lows will be about 36. The mercury continues to climb on the weekend. The high Saturday and Sunday will be in the lower 60s under mostly to partly sunny skies. The lows will be between the lower and upper 40s. A 20 percent chance of showers is possible Sunday. Nationally, the most active weather will continue to be in the East on Tuesday due to a strong storm. This strong and wet storm will make its way through the eastern third of the country, spreading mostly rain from the Gulf Coast through the Northeast. The heaviest of this rain will fall in New England and the higher elevations of the Appalachians. In the colder air to the east of the storm, some snow showers will fall in western New England and may be enhanced by the relatively warm waters of the Great Lakes. Dry conditions are anticipated for much of the rest of the country, with the one exception being in the Southern Rockies where high elevation morning snow showers will give way to cool, but dry, conditions.
