For thousands of years, people have looked up at the moon and wondered about its divine significance. It should come as no surprise that many cultures throughout time have had lunar deities - that is, gods or goddesses associated with the power and energy of the moon. If you're doing a moon-related ritual, in some traditions of Wicca and Paganism you may choose to call upon one of these deities for assistance.

CampStove Video
Watch our instruction video to see the CampStove in action. Just as in starting any fire, it’s important to use dry wood. If it’s recently been raining, you may want to carry a little dry wood with you to get the fire started. Loosely fill the CampStove with twigs, without blocking the jets on the side of the fuel chamber. We recommend using firelighters, and we’ve included some inside your package.
13 Business Books That Will Blow Your Mind

The books usually aren't "How to Manage Your Cash Flow" but rather get me to rethink the way I run my business , which--despite no business classes or diploma--continues to be in business 13 plus years after I started it.

Scientists confirmed this week that rocks collected recently in the Moroccan desert came from the Red Planet. A little-known fact is that each year Earth is hit by by half a dozen or so one-pound or larger rocks that were blasted off the surface of Mars by large impacts and found their way into Earth-crossing orbits. Nearly 10% of all rocks blasted off into space from Mars end up crashing into Earth. This natural "interplanetary transportation system" begs a fascinating question: If primitive and nearly indestructible micro-organisms exist on a given planet, must they by definition as a natural act or nature, travel to their immediate solar-system neighbors? In 1976 the Viking landers had instruments onboard that could measure the composition of the Martian atmosphere. In the early 1980s, a meteorite was investigated and found to contain trapped gas inside, which when analyzed, was shown to be a match to what the Viking landers found in the Martian atmosphere.
