The Earth with Two Moons?

*Two moons on August 27th!*

*The Whole World is waiting for August 27th*

Planet Mars will be the brightest in the night sky starting August.

It will look as large as the full moon to the naked eye. This will be on Aug. 27 when Mars comes within 34.65M miles of earth. Be sure to watch the sky on Aug. 27 12:30 am. It will look like the earth has 2 moons. The next time Mars may come this close is in 2287!

Share this with your friends as NO ONE ALIVE TODAY will ever see it again!

thanks to my friend Larry Fraser for making me aware of this . . . . I'll be watching.

I'm not even going to start comparing Hammerin' Hank Aaron with Juiced Up Barry Bonds

I remember one time listening to a Dodger-Brave game back in the 60's and the Braves had the bases loaded with Aaron coming up and for the first time in my life I thought . . . . WALK HIM. Don Drysdale was pitching . . . . Hank hit it out on the the second pitch to deep center field in County Stadium.

"Delivering a speech to the National Bureau of Economic Research, the Fed chief said "changes in energy [and food] prices should have relatively little influence on 'core' inflation, that is, inflation excluding the prices of food and energy."
