The nuclear melody sounds weird to my ears

Gaddafi as an excuse of the West's brutality!

I have expressed my opinion from the first moment. What happens in Magreb is more a result of western countries plots and less a furious reaction of the North Africans, even though there people who indeed suffer in the region by the leaderships of these regimes.
The brutal offence of some western countries in Libya, with Sarcozy in the lead, is a fact that enhances my opinion and the unacceptable practises of Gaddafi's regime can not be a truthful excuse. I support what the President of Cyprus stated. The only thing will be achieved with the military operation will be an increase of the war victims among the Libya people!
And do not forget that although the United Nations have released hundreds of resolutions against the Turkish intervention to the Mediterranean island, the western countries and its forces have never occupied their minds to apply them...

Super Full Moon !!!!

March 19, 2011: Mark your calendar. On MARCH 19TH, a full Moon of rare size and beauty will rise in the east at sunset. It's a super "perigee moon"--the biggest in almost 20 years.
"The last full Moon so big and close to Earth occurred in March of 1993," says Geoff Chester of the US Naval Observatory in Washington DC. "I'd say it's worth a look."
Full Moons vary in size because of the oval shape of the Moon's orbit. It is an ellipse with one side (perigee) about 50,000 km closer to Earth than the other (apogee). Nearby perigee moons are about 14% bigger and 30% brighter than lesser moons that occur on the apogee side of the Moon's orbit.
"The full Moon of March 19th occurs less than one hour away from perigee--a near-perfect coincidence only 18 years or so," adds Chester.
A perigee full Moon brings with it extra-high "perigean tides," but this is nothing to worry about, according to NOAA. In most places, lunar gravity at perigee pulls tide waters only a few centimeters (an inch or so) higher than usual. Local geography can amplify the effect to about 15 centimeters (six inches)--not exactly a great flood.
Indeed, contrary to some reports circulating the Internet, perigee Moons do not trigger natural disasters. The "super moon" of March 1983, for instance, passed without incident. And an almost-super Moon in Dec. 2008 also proved harmless.
Okay, the Moon is 14% bigger than usual, but can you really tell the difference? It's tricky. There are no rulers floating in the sky to measure lunar diameters. Hanging high overhead with no reference points to provide a sense of scale, one full Moon can seem much like any other.
The best time to look is when the Moon is near the horizon. That is when illusion mixes with reality to produce a truly stunning view. For reasons not fully understood by astronomers or psychologists, low-hanging Moons look unnaturally large when they beam through trees, buildings and other foreground objects. On March 19th, why not let the "Moon illusion" amplify a full Moon that's extra-big to begin with? The swollen orb rising in the east at sunset may seem so nearby, you can almost reach out and touch it.
Don't bother. Even a super perigee Moon is still 356,577 km away. That is, it turns out, a distance of rare beauty.

When Obama met Edmund Hooper!

Some Weeks ago we had a discussion about the book "The King of the Castle, in which one of the main characters is the bully Edmund Hooper. In our discussion we had noticed that bullying is something that many of us, and of course our "therapist" C.B., we had suffer of this awful practise when we were children.
Guess what! The President of USA, Barrack Obama, had the same experience in his childhood. The White House hosted recently an anti-bullying conference, after the suicide of a student, because of a private video scene, with the student and an other man, that was released amid internet!
"We've got to dispel this myth that bullying is just a normal rite of passage, that it's some inevitable part of growing up. It's not... As a nation, we're founded on the belief that all of us are equal and each of us deserves the freedom to pursue our own version of happiness," Mr. Obama said in the conference.
A funny point of view emerged when the black President noted that when he was student the other guys laughed at him because of his big ears and his weird name!
It is obvious; Edmund Hooper had bullying the little Barrack, toο!

An interesting and funny semi-conspiracy story...
I know that maybe some people will think it is a comic film which support a conspiracy dimension of the modern western History, at least in an extend, but I'm convised it is also, and for sure, a humorous and very educational approach of the world's socio-economic History!
Watch it to judge it, from your point of view...
- You could find it with greek subtitles too.
