Rotjijatau:
What is Lunar eclipse?
Lunar eclipse is when the sun blocks the moon from shinning!!!
A month ago scientists predicted a lunar eclipse that will occur today 28th September 2015. I have seen it, you can go out and check for yourselves.

pls ooo the sun can't block the moon from shining the sun is too far away for that. the earth was in between the sun and the moon. so the earth cast a shadow on the moon, that why the moon is looking like that.

if my chioce lady is a nurse, then there is no need to approach her

if my girl friend is a nurse then she will not be more than a girl friend

and if my wife becomes a nurse, its sure that we will just end it

If a lady wants to get me off her back, let her just lie to me that she is a nurse and its OVER!

Its just my opinion plsssss

I suggest that u look for a catering company or a fast food company and start as an intern or an IT student. then gather years of experience till u get something better.

Microwaved foods are deadly.

"Microwaving baby formulas converted certain trans-amino acids into their synthetic cis-isomers. Synthetic isomers, whether cis-amino acids or trans-fatty acids,are not biologically active. Further, one of the amino acids, L-proline, was converted to its d-isomer, which is known to be neurotoxic (poisonous to the nervous system) and nephrotoxic (poisonous to the kidneys). It's bad enough that many babies are not nursed, but now they are given fake milk (baby formula) made even more toxic via microwaving". Dr. Lita Lee, Lancet, Dec. 9, 1989

It's more accurate to refer to the ovens as 'Radiation Ovens'. Microwave oven is scientifically erroneous.

wow
