A once-in-a-blue-moon New Year's Eve

For only the second time in nearly two decades, December will end with Earth illuminated by a "Blue Moon," the name given to the second full moon appearing in a single month. Skip related content

For New Year's revellers in the Western hemisphere, the calendar will not quite have turned into the new decade when the perfectly round orb lights up the night sky.



Not since 1990 has the world had the opportunity to observe on a mass scale the compounded impact of a Blue Moon and bubbly.



The double full moon phenomenon happens on average every 2.7 years, with the most recent in May 2007, and the next set for August 2012.



This month, the moon was also at its maximum on December 2.



Why Blue? For no particular reason, according to Space.com, a popular science website based in the United States.



"If there's been a recent volcanic eruption that poured significant ash into the upper atmosphere, it is possible for the moon to take on a blue tint," noted the site's editorial director Robert Roy Britt.



"That's not expected tonight," he added, as if by way of apology.



It also turns out that the term "blue moon" is a misnomer that can be traced back to an editorial blooper 65 years ago in the normally irreproachable magazine Sky and Telescope.



The original meaning was the third full moon in a season with four, a more common occurrence.

Belief/Rules/Identify



I was reading profiles today and thinking of how many people who seem to belong in a belief system of rules or guidelines, a grouping of persons learning some sort of system. The thing is where would i belong ? would i want to ?



I think not ... i dont find it necessary to follow anything, being free to exsploor everything without the list of doos and donts of the genres and rules.



I do not need to follow ... be a part of ... identify



I will not obey rules that in (certain cercumstances) could change the right or wrongs of this world upside down



Finding fact/truth is my main goal



Individual/different



The divide and rule/identify game is very evident all around

The funniest part? Everyone (as a collective whole) espouses the virtue of their uniqueness and randomness :)

When it comes to a belief system I don't actually follow any rules I just do, as with the way I follow life!



However one does follow rules Dracken that shape the rights and wrongs of the world.....think about it!
