If you are offended about God and religion you might want to skip the next section(bold letters). Nothing bad is said, but common sense questions are asked and those questions do bother some people. The purpose of this web magazine is to offend no one That is impossible, so I would say to offend as little as possible. But the events as they happen need to be publish by everyone. You will judge the truth of any comment, because the reader is always the final editor.

I come from a family of 12. If you come from any family of more than one, didin’t your parents keep you from killing each other?? The article below is neutral, with emphasis of the different places where the full moon hits around the world. Nut as I watch scene I got ask….why brothers and sisters like in Ireland and the USA killed each other in civil wars. Is politics more important than blood and friendships? As we watched the convention of one of the two political parties in the USA we found some important speaker like the ex scretary of state announcing a new war against I ran because they are going nuclear like India, Pakistan, Israel, USA, China, Russia, UKingdom and acouple others like Egypt that dont declare and the uSA keeps quiet about????? The point is if we have a father, when does he stops us from killing each other? How many billions should it come down too???? This question has nothing to do with religion but with common sense and morality. When does a good parent stops it.

‘Once in a blue moon’ might not be so rare – or blue, for that matter. But two full moons in one month is nothing to scoff at, even if the event’s somewhat misleading title leaves many wondering if their eyes can see color properly.

That’s right: While many people awaiting nightfall on Friday may have been expecting the moon to look like a great big blueberry in the sky, the phrase ‘blue moon’ actually refers to the occurrence of an extra full moon in a calendar cycle, though it has popularly come to signify two full moons happening in the same month.

Since the average lunar cycle is around 29 days long, while the average month is around 30, the two cycles slowly fall out of sync until a blue moon occurs.

The term first entered the popular lexicon in 1946, when an amateur stargazer named James Hugh Pruett wrote for ‘Sky and Telescope’ magazine about two full moons occurring in August 1937. He referred to the seemingly rare phenomenon as happening only “once in a blue moon.”

Ironically, Pruett was poetically right, but factually askew. As it turned out, 1937 only had 12 full moons, and the full moon in question – which actually fell on August 21 – was not the second full moon for that month.

But the phrase stuck, even though it takes place every 2.7 years or so, making actual blue moons far more common than figurative ones. The next one is expected to take place on July 2015.

One special part of last night’s blue moon was that it served as a fitting moment to pay tribute to the first man who ever walked on it: Neil Armstrong, who died last week, was laid to rest on Friday. His family hoped that America’s most famous space cowboy would be remembered by all those who looked up in wonder as day turned to night.

“When people see the moon smiling down at you, think of Neil Armstrong and give him a wink," the family said in a statement released after his death.

However one chose to spend Friday’s lunar event, one thing is for certain: The giant leap Armstrong took for mankind in 1969 is the type of achievement that indeed only happens once in a blue moon.
