 So i've been looking through some winter photo's i took with Bentley, these are all from one lovely Saturday morning walk with him. I believe this was on 19-12-10 (or 12-19-10 for you crazy Americans :) )

Hope you enjoy.

He looks great! Mine love playing with plastic bottles, too. I can't leave them out with any with liquid in them, they unscrew the cap and spill it! :)

Looks like he was having some fun, and so grown up too.

We do 06 Feb 2011 at work... but I work for the Navy so that is pretty standard.

 

Well that and we also use Julian dates alot! Which is just like Jan 1 is 1, Feb 1 is 32. etc.

Splat, I think it's "zulu" but not really sure exactly what it is.

What is "Zulu" time?

"Zulu" time is that which is more commonly know as "GMT" (Greenwich Mean Time). Our natural concept of time is linked to the rotation of the earth and we define the length of the day as the 24 hours it takes (on average) the earth to spin once on its axis.

As time pieces became more accurate and communication became global, there needed to be a point from which all other world times were based. Since Great Britain was the world's foremost maritime power when the concept of latitude and longitude came to be, the starting point for designating longitude was the "prime meridian" which is zero degrees and runs through the Royal Greenwich Observatory, in Greenwich, England.

When the concept of time zones was introduced, the "starting" point for calculating the different time zones was agreed to be the Royal Greenwich Observatory.

Unfortunately the Earth does not rotate at exactly a constant rate. Due to various scientific reasons and increased accuracy in measuring the earth's rotation, a new timescale, called Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), has been adopted and replaces the term GMT.

The Navy, as well as civil aviation, uses the letter "Z" (phonetically "Zulu") to refer to the time at the prime meridian.

NOAA satellites use Zulu Time or Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) as their time reference. The satellite images that appear on NOAA's Web sites are stamped in Zulu time.

So what they're basically saying is, English people are awesome and you should just all bow down and hand over your houses and your women!! (only the good looking ones please) Oh and I don't want Angelina Jolie either. :)

We TRY to convince people to use yyyy-mm-dd at work (for coding purposes). For general use, I use dd-mmm-yyyy.
