Get ready to be moonstruck (again) this Saturday
The super perigee moon will be nearly as close as last year’s eye-popping spectacle. No calamities predicted.

A Wall of Shattered Glass Floods a Benedictine Monastery by Baptiste Debombourg
“There are things that U.S. soldiers are allowed to talk about with the press and others they are not. One of the things they are not allowed to voice is their political opinion, especially if it goes against their commander in chief. In the privacy of latrine stalls on military bases in Iraq and Kuwait, however, it is quite a different story. I did not see any pro-Bush writings in any of the hundreds of latrines I photographed.” ―Zoriah, via simply-war
Zoriah is one of the best photojounralists of the last decade. Documenting this subject was an absolutely brilliant idea and not one many journalists working in the war zones would have attempted. This is an outstanding achievement in circumnavigating the government’s media filter (a recurring theme throughout Zoriah’s work).
