The Czech Freedom is 20 years old.No more murders!

*woxys:iconwoxys: reports, November 18
This new article is dedicated to you, people from USA, Great Britain, Australia, Germany... for all of you, who live in democratic countries. It is a story about my home-country, the Czech republic and its fight for freedom and democracy. And I think it can help you to gain some very important and interesting information!

Exactly twenty years ago, the famous Velvet revolution started in the Czech republic and it finally brought freedom and democracy to the country. During the communist rule, there were political murders, violence and other terrible crimes against the humanity. Read the story about 40 years of totalitarian regime and the final fight for freedom!

H1N1 - Questions asked

*SterlingRuinsFall337:iconSterlingRuinsFall337: reports, October 29
We’ve all heard about it by now; the H1N1 virus, or originally called ‘Swine Flu’ and though there are plenty of theories where it came from or how much of a problem it may be, I have done a bit of research over the last few months and have come up with a ‘small’ bite of information that people can read should they become concerned, or just want to know a bit more before they accuse someone of having the virus, or if you yourself think you may…

U.S. Condemns Uganda's Anti-Gay Death Penalty

~operaphantom21:iconoperaphantom21: reports, 2d 20h ago
I'm glad that people are taking a stand against it. People shouldn't be persecuted for any beliefs. Uganda's gay death penalty legislation is unjust. Hitler was wrong to put homosexuals in concentration camps during the Holocaust, and Uganda is wrong to give people the death penalty just for having a different sexual orientation.

NORAD Santa Tracker Helps You Keep an Eye on Chris

~vtdainfo:iconvtdainfo: reports, 1d 34m ago
Skeptics have long questioned the physics of Santa Clause's mystical journey, saying it isn't possible that he could deliver presents to the entire world in a single night. Thankfully, the folks who protect our skies continue a program that allows believers to track Santa's progress, and prove all the humbugs wrong.

Did you get your shots of the August 28th Eclipse?

*PyroPaul:iconPyroPaul: reports, August 28, 2007
Did you get your shots of last nights lunar eclipse?
Well, if not, heres a grand list of people who did!
Before we get to the Thumbs, lets go over what exactly an eclipse is.

A Lunar eclipse is a very magical time because for the time frame of a little over an hour, The earth is perfectly aligned in between the Moon and the sun. This particular phenomena only happens approximatly two times a year, and is veiwable better from different places on earth each time.
The moon will always be full during a full moon, because it is when it falls directly behind earth so to speak. If you were wondering why exactly the moon changes its color during a Lunar eclipse, its because when the moon falls directly behind earth, the sun shines through the earths atmosphere and casts earths shadow upon the moon... if the Earth had no atmosphere, the Moon would be completely dark during an eclipse. The red or orange color comes from sunlight passing through a long and dense layer of the Earth's atmosphere, where it is scattered
It uses basically the same concept as a sunset, and how the sky is cast different shades of red.

ZOMG PAUL, YOU CAN RIGHT THESE THINGS!? =OOOOOOOO

And Yes, I did. But My camera is pretty bad and I didn't get great shots sadly, it wouldn't zoom enough and clouds kept getting in the way. And where I was the moon didn't even go red, or even orange. It pretty much just slowly went black... =(
