Traffic Drop In Google Search

After a big drop of  google search traffic in the last week, only now i can see how important is the google.
Hey goog we don`t need the prof to see  who is the real monopolist.
Google advices are:
Read the guidelines carefully and there should be no problems.
Some of my sites lost the 70 % of  search queries from google  and it keeps falling,  i have done nothing suspicious, nor i know what could be the problem.

I searched a lot on this problem and i even tried to see if this happened to anybody else.
Google trends shows some interesting information on domains you type, i did this:
najdi.si, 24ur.com, rtvslo.si, siol.net
You may try your own domains or competitors to see the traffic trends,  and all i see is the drops, no boosts.

I have no solution and i am hoping like the others, that google will eventually bring back my sites to its position where has it been before.
Here are forum threads on this topic:

I have lost my rankings, Google has dropped me
Google Traffic drop – Sandbox
Google Page level penalty for comment spam – rankings and traffic drop
Possible Causes Of A Websites Traffic Drop
Anyone having huge Google traffic drop

Topographic map of the Earth

METI and NASA created topographic map that covers 99% of the world with about 1 million images huh.
The data is available to everyone.
I just registered on http://www.gdem.aster.ersdac.or.jp/index.jsp and tried to get topographic map from Yugoslavia, and download is very slow since the release was on 29.07.2009. and they noted.
The server of ASTER GDEM distribution site is extremely busy with many accesses at the moment.

This data can tell the temperature of the surface, the condition of the surface and it could prevent Volcano eruptions, floods, maybe earthqukes.

I am simply boring and interested in this kind of stuff, i wonder if historical data is viewable and also where to find geological data, i want it all

Global Hawk And Predator

Yeah I watched on discovery science and while watching i am saying what if these self flying machines haves satelite controlled bombs.. And yeah they do have it.
Because these machines can take high quality pictures far from sky i said it, i am 100% that they flied over our little country Slovenia and documented all locations? Why not? nobody can see them.

Wtf can happen in future? Are we gonna have small super fast high explosive gps/sat controlled bombs that will fly anywhere in the world and hit with sure precision.
That would be some dangerous weapon.

Global Hawk

The 44-foot-long Global Hawk flies far higher than Predator, for a wider view of the landscape. It can reach altitudes above 60,000 feet yet can produce still images that allow analysts to distinguish one tire track from another.

Predator

The Predators, which fly up to 140 mph at altitudes up to about 25,000 feet, have also been modified to carry Hellfire heat-seeking missiles

Chinese New Year – Year of PIG

Chinese New Year is the longest and most important celebration in the Chinese calendar. The Chinese year 4705 begins on Feb. 18, 2007.

Chinese months are reckoned by the lunar calendar, with each month beginning on the darkest day. New Year festivities traditionally start on the first day of the month and continue until the fifteenth, when the moon is brightest. In China, people may take weeks of holiday from work to prepare for and celebrate the New Year.
A Piggy Year

Legend has it that in ancient times, Buddha asked all the animals to meet him on Chinese New Year. Twelve came, and Buddha named a year after each one. He announced that the people born in each animal’s year would have some of that animal’s personality. Those born in pig years tend to have excellent manners, make and keep friends, work very hard, and appreciate luxury. They are very loving and make loyal partners. Lucille Ball, Humphrey Bogart, Hillary Rodham Clinton, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Ernest Hemingway, Alfred Hitchcock, Mahalia Jackson, David Letterman, and Arnold Schwarzenegger were all born in the year of the pig.
Fireworks and Family Feasts

At Chinese New Year celebrations people wear red clothes, decorate with poems on red paper, and give children “lucky money” in red envelopes. Red symbolizes fire, which according to legend can drive away bad luck. The fireworks that shower the festivities are rooted in a similar ancient custom. Long ago, people in China lit bamboo stalks, believing that the crackling flames would frighten evil spirits.
The Lantern Festival

In China, the New Year is a time of family reunion. Family members gather at each other’s homes for visits and shared meals, most significantly a feast on New Year’s Eve. In the United States, however, many early Chinese immigrants arrived without their families, and found a sense of community through neighborhood associations instead. Today, many Chinese-American neighborhood associations host banquets and other New Year events.

Chinese New Year ends with the lantern festival on the fifteenth day of the month. Some of the lanterns may be works of art, painted with birds, animals, flowers, zodiac signs, and scenes from legend and history. People hang glowing lanterns in temples, and carry lanterns to an evening parade under the light of the full moon.

In many areas the highlight of the lantern festival is the dragon dance. The dragon—which might stretch a hundred feet long—is typically made of silk, paper, and bamboo. Traditionally the dragon is held aloft by young men who dance as they guide the colorful beast through the streets. In the United States, where the New Year is celebrated with a shortened schedule, the dragon dance always takes place on a weekend. In addition, many Chinese-American communities have added American parade elements such as marching bands and floats.

Cell Phone Networks Double as Rain Gauges

Cell phone networks worldwide are on the brink of becoming sophisticated
weather gauges, researchers say.

For years wireless networks have dealt with impeded signals during rain, snow, fog, or hail. The networks monitor their signals closely and strengthen them as necessary, to maintain a good signal for customers.

As it turns out, this monitoring and subsequent adjusting provides weather information that may be even more precise than methods currently used by meteorologists, says Hagit Messer.

Messer is vice president for research and development at Tel Aviv University in Israel.

“The weather affects the signal strength dramatically,” she said.

If better real-time weather data can be collected, weather prediction will improve, she says.Big Static Means Big Weather

Messer and her team tested the accuracy of cell phone weather data last year and were impressed enough with the results that they have filed a preliminary patent application for the process.

The degree of signal interference, called attenuation, depends on the size and distribution of the rain droplets, according to the Israeli team, whose paper will be published in tomorrow’s issue of the journal Science.

In an experiment during a rainstorm in January 2005, the team collected data every 15 minutes from cell phone networks about signal-strength adjustments.
