And, that rounds out the first page. subsequent pages of the resources thread appear to be missing today from Google's cache.

Luckily, I saved page 2 YESTERDAY! And a good thing, too!

Finally, they've got some higher res images, a larger library, and the ability to link to specific views, like you can in http://www.google.com/mars and maps.google.com ... Swe-eet! For those interested in such things...

Try searching on terms like "electric + tornado" "electric + vortex" and other combinations of terms like weather, water spout, plasma, Lorentz force, etc. Plenty of good stuff in there!

This site regularly boasts new discoveries and research in all manner of science, but there is lots of space and earth science. It's interesting because it provokes a lot of thought and nearly always ignores the electric universe...

Not specifically EU-related stuff. But often contains nuggets the EU folks would find interesting and/or amusing...

If we want to "go there" with news sites, I suppose I can add a few (that I cull once in a while):

http://www.space.com
http://www.astronomy.com
http://www.spacedaily.com
http://www.spacedaily.com/Venusian_Heat.html
http://www.terradaily.com

among others...

Just ran across this new NASA site via Digg:

(NASA Science - Science Mission Directorate)
http://nasascience.nasa.gov/

From which I stumbled upon this site:

(NASA Earth Observatory)
http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/

Though I'd take issue with their over-simplified definition of Plasma:

(Plasma)
http://nasascience.nasa.gov/glossary/plasma
A fourth state of matter (in addition to solid, liquid, and gas) that exists in space. In this state, atoms are positively charged and share space with free negatively charged electrons. Plasma can conduct electricity and interact strongly with electric and magnetic fields. The solar wind is actually hot plasma blowing from the sun. See magnetosphere.
Perhaps a minor quibble, but there can also be negatively charged atoms (in the case of those species which have one or more extra electrons, for some reason) which participate in plasma interactions. Granted the usual definition deals more with atoms that are "so hot they're stripped of electrons" in which case the above quote applies. Keeping in mind that there are "fully-ionized plasmas" (hot plasmas), "partially-ionized plasmas" (sometimes called warm plasmas), and weakly-ionized plasmas (cold plasmas).
