A BRIGHTEST SUPERMOONS HAVE APPEARED AFTER A DECADES

The full moon on November 14, 2016, is a SUPER MOONS—that is, a full moon that occurs when it is at its closest point, or perigee, to Earth in its orbit.

Since the full moon is at its perigee, it is at its biggest and brightest and is about 25 percent brighter than when it is at the farthest point, or apogee. This supermoon is the brightest since 1948, and it will not be as bright again until November 25, 2034. Usually a supermoon is a full moon that occurs on the same day as perigee. This supermoon will become full just two hours from perigee. The year 2016 has been an unusual time for supermoons, since the last three full moons of the year will be supermoons.
The concept of the supermoon came from 20th-century American astrology, in which it was originally defined as either a new or full moon that occurred within 10 percent of perigee and was seen as a portent of disasters. However, in a strange cultural quirk, the term escaped astrology into the mainstream to become an excuse to look at a really bright full moon.

"we should go back now that nobody has seen us, "cried mattew. He was striken with fear. A fear that took the greater part of him and made his body shake. "just follow my instructions, don't waver. We'll go through this without a hitch. Now let have the torchlight," tom said and. And snatched the torch from mattew's hand. "we dont use the light, until we get into the compound," he added. The manner he spoke was grave and intimidating that matter was scared of making further argument. the night was cold and silence engulfed every where. The regular sounds of crickets, sizzled in the air. The two boys ran like jack rabbits, entering into the small garden that guided the principal's house. The house was in total darken…

TROUBLE-IN-SCHOOL (Episode 6)

Episode 6 "You should be held as a collaborator, if you withhold any information to the police. Think well, and don't say that Tom or Dick is your friend," the policeman said and paused. The mention of Tom sent jitters into Tom. Tom felt goose pimple all over him. However, on a second thought, he realised that the man was talking about Tom, dick and Harry, a common language meaning everybody. "If the school bus driver is here, let come him out, "the policeman ordered. There was a hum of dread among the students. In their minds, the mention of the driver was enough to condemn the man. The school driver was a mean looking man with a mouth like that of a mouse. He had a dark serious facet face which made him look like a wicked man. He walked out, fear written all over him.
