From the time we are born, we get to know our fathers as the men who are always there, bigger than life, the person to shape the center of our universe.

Gerrie Nel Got His Man - Oscar Pistorius Guilty of Murder!

We are up for an extravagant astrological event and no matter whether you follow astrology or not, it is a wonderful sight to behold.  On the night of 27/28 September, we will be able to see a Lunar Eclipse. But not only is it a Full Moon, it’s a Super Moon and a Blood Moon at that!
