THE GEMINID METEOR SHOWER IS UNDERWAY: International observers are counting as many as 50 meteors per hour as Earth plunges into a stream of debris from rock comet 3200 Phaethon. Rates could double, or more, when the shower peaks on Dec. 13th and 14th. The best time to look is during the dark hours before dawn on Thursday and Friday. [sky map] [meteor radar] [video]

We get it. Naps happen. Just not always when you want them to, and far too rarely in a crib or bed. Luckily, sleepy babies are all kinds of adorable -- and an excellent reminder to get yourself some rest too.

My 12/12/12 day

All I got to say about 12/12/12 is WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I mean the energies were like nothing I ever felt, and so strong and peaceful, energetic, and just a calmness about me without any negativity, judgement at all.
Then I go home and I am in the yard with the dogs, I asked AA Michael to come and bam, OMG I never felt his presence as strong as I did yesterday. I asked him to encircle my house with protection, and bless it with love and bless those living there and also my dogs. Bruce was the overseer of the house but he is on to other experiences now. I could feel his circle big time.

Cardinal George Pell

(Yahoo News) In comments that may shock some staunch Catholics, Cardinal George Pell has described the biblical story of Adam and Eve as a myth.

He appeared alongside renowned evolutionary biologist and atheist, Professor Richard Dawkins, on the ABC’s Q&A program last night.

Cardinal Pell said the existence of Adam and Eve was not a matter of science but rather a mythological account.

“It’s a very sophisticated mythology to try to explain the evil and the suffering in the world,” he said.
