Hard drive failure can occur any time. There are no warnings or “drama music”. My main financial, business computer had multiple failures two days ago. It worked perfectly the night before and nothing the next morning. It is currently on life support. No worries, my back-up strategy includes daily backups of critical data as well as on line storage. Back-up today, it may be the last time you see your photos. Carbonite is the easiest to use at carbonite.com. Carbonite requires no expertise and runs in the background.

Sprint is offering to cut your ATT or Verizon bill in half on Friday 5 Dec 14. It’s truly an amazing deal even if you are under contract. Downside, no service in Mexico. You can use Skype or Magic Jack Apps on the phone. Details on this link:

“Where’s my droid” is a free app from Google to help you find your missing android device – phone or tablet. You can wipe the data if stolen. Here is the link:

Alert!!! A new Gift Card scam is out there and ugly. Criminals are using cell phones to take photos of the bar codes on Gift Cards that you find on racks in many department stores. The criminals wait until the card is activated, then empty the account before the person can use it. Only buy gift cards that you find behind the counter.

BAJA NIGHT SKY -- December 2014: 1) That Old Devil Moon rises as the Full Moon about 6:06pm Saturday evening, December 6, 99.4% illuminated--pretty close to 100% full. However, when the moon rises Friday evening, December 5 at 5:15pm, it will be even brighter--99.7%. How can Friday's Moon be brighter than Saturday's Full Moon? Well, Friday's Moon is 14 minutes closer to Astronomical Full Moon, which only lasts an instant at 5:25:56am Saturday morning when the moon will be exactly opposite the sun. So Saturday's Moon gets the Full Moon title though it's not as full as Friday's. Of the two close-to-full Moons, Friday's will be the most interesting. It will be caught between the horns of Taurus the Bull, with the Bull's red eye, the giant star Aldebaran, close to its edge at the 4 o'clock position. This should make great viewing with binoculars. 2) Sun-wise people know that the shortest day of the year is the winter solstice, around December 21, when the sun rises, transits, and sets furthest south in the Northern Hemisphere. Nevertheless, it is not the day of the latest sunrise or earliest sunset. For reasons related to Earth's tilt, elliptical orbit, and increasing speed as it orbits closer to the sun than average during our winter, the earliest sunsets occur early December, and the latest sunrises occur early January. The winter solstice is the day to check noontime shadows. The sun's low path across the sky casts the longest shadows of the year. Use them to position your kitchen garden or other sun-loving plants. 3) The Geminids Meteor Shower begins Saturday evening, December 13 and continues until morning. Most meteor showers are caused by tiny debris from comets. The Geminids come from a rocky asteroid with a comet-like orbit. As the asteroid passes close to the sun every 1.46 years, thermal fracturing sheds rocky chunks into the asteroid's orbit. When Earth crosses this orbit, chunks entering our atmosphere burn as bright fireballs. They tend to come in groups, so be patient if you go out to watch for them. 4) Orion returns in December, another sign of approaching winter. Look for the hunter climbing the SE sky around 10pm, 9pm mid month, and 8pm by month's end. The group's brightest stars, Betelgeuse and Rigel, are at opposite corners. Sirius, the brightest star in the sky, shines just below Orion. Tom at BajaNightSky@gmail.com.
