NASA Image Of The Day
Hurricane Celia
Perfectly circular, powerful Hurricane Celia spaned hundreds of miles over the Pacific Ocean in this image from June 24, 2010. Rough-textured clouds surround the storm?s distinct eye. Farther from the center of the storm, spiral arms appear thinner and smoother. The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer, or MODIS, on NASA?s Aqua satellite captured this true-color image of Hurricane Celia at 1:55 p.m. Pacific Daylight Time on June 24, 2010. Just five minutes later, the U.S. National Hurricane Center classified Celia as a Category 4 hurricane with sustained winds of 135 miles per hour. Image Credit: NASA...

About - The Poet
Lisa Jain Thompson   
Tuesday, 11 July 2006 12:50
Lisa Jain Thompson, StarpoetLisa Jain Thompson was born in the Sacramento River Delta of Northern California where the Sacramento, American, and San Joaquin Rivers meet and riverboats carried gold and gamblers down river to San Francisco.
 
She was born halfway between the Fin de Siècle and the new millennium. Her birth is assumed to have been in the family house on the outskirts of Sacramento.

She probably attended a local parochial grammar school and college prep, followed by University. Although her father was prominent in the local broad media, she chose another path, teaching for a time at an academy, then pursuing various careers with various state and federal instruments of government.

After her fist marriage, Lisa Jain left few traces on the literary scene until she reappeared as Starpoet, a decade before the century turned. The years between University and her re-emergence are known as her “lost years.”

Lisa Jain died sometime in the latter half of the first century of the third millennium, survived by her wife Sharon, their eight children, numerous friends, an extended family, and the body of work known as Starpoet.
