Daily Bread for 11.9.11

Good morning,

It’s another rainy day in Whitewater, with a chance of snow (of little accumulation) later this afternoon.

Whitewater’s Tech Park Board meets today at 8 AM. The agenda is available online. A portion of the meeting is in closed session, but most of the meeting is scheduled for open session. (The agenda is written poorly, and does not make clear that items 12-14, including future agenda items, should be open session after reconvening from item 11, “Whitewater University Technology Park Executive Director Search & Screen Update.”)

Here’s Google’s puzzle for the day, about another large object, found even closer to us: “You’ll find the world’s largest living superorganism off the coast of what state?”
