Capturing the flag is often a vital component in paint ball. Today on the Big Bang Theory Show a red and blue flag appear as our pals work out their problems and play a game.
Bernadette can be see getting the blue flag.
Penny and Leonard are having a little discussion while the red flag is in the background. Although Leonard has 'captured' the flag Penny shoots him.
Leonard, in blue, shoots his load at Penny, and the red team's flag is in the background.
Heartfelt reflection of the passing year is an important aspect for Lunar Twilight.
Reflection on the heart is something that needs to be encouraged. The hyper stimulation of life can lead to stress and a potentially burst of ugly bottled up emotions. Relying on sleep alone to decompress, just won't cut it.
Although music can help, allowing one's mind to listen to the heart without judgement and feel its message is the most wholesome remedy.
Here is the what a Lunar Twilight Candelmast looks like on the second night. One candle has disappeared to represent the passing of the second night of Lunar Twilight, under the last Moon created in 2018. Although officially 2019, at night the last embers of 2018 are slowly dimming down.
Here is another song that captures the mood of Lunar Twilight, by U2. It is time to unplug from the television and computers. Quiet reflection of the passing year with or without music is a must.
Although it is 2019, the last Moon of 2018 shines on at night for five nights of 2019. This gives us five more nights to say goodbye and make peace with 2018. This year the Lunar Twilight Candelmast has five candles.
Unlike Hannukah and Kwanzaa, all the candles are all lit at the beginning of Lunar Twlight. Each night a candle burns out completely, which will be the shortest, to represent the passing of a day. When the shortest candle burns out, the others should be blown out before the dawn of the next day. Then on the next sunset of the day afterwards the remaining candles are to be lit, whence the next shortest candle burns out in the manner, until none are left.
The celebration of Lunar Twilight is a universal inclusive celebration to mark the passing of time for any person of any heritage, faith, nationality, gender, or path to appreciate our connection to the heavens by ancient traditions and modern science revelations, or a mixture of both.
It won't be until January 7, 2019 that the first Moon of 2019 will be. And if you want to get ready for January 2020, there will be 23 extra nights of 2019. That means, we have to wait until January 25th 2020, for the first cosmic night of 2020, because that is when the first Moon of 2020 arrives.
Thus the last echo of 2018 burns out at high noon GMT/UTC January 7, 2019. The curated 2018 Lunar Twilight Goodbye Song that captures the feels of this holiday is an INXS song, Afterglow 2006
There is a certain hour when today, tomorrow and yesterday happen simultaneously on Earth. Since there is a stretch of time zones to 27 total hours, this makes it possible for three days to exist all at once on our planet. Although locally within your time zone it is one day or the other, it is upon the global perspective that all three happen on planet Earth.
It happens from 10am to 12pm London Time, aka GMT or UTC. Consequently this flag can be flashed or flown during that window: when today, tomorrow and yesterday exist on our planet. For the East Coast of the USA, this happens during standard time from 5am to 7am. But for the West Coast of the US, this happens from 2am to 4am. While in Japan and Korea this takes place 7pm to 9pm-during standard time. Since it happens simultaneously, it will vary for whichever time zone one lives.
The Today, Tomorrow, Yesterday Flag is a vertical tribar of orange, yellow and purple. The repeat of the Roman Numeral III indicates this happens for two hours. And the numeral three represents today, tomorrow, and yesterday. Also, the yellow bar represents today, the orange represents tomorrow, and the purple represents yesterday.
But for the people of Kiribati it can also be called the hour of today, yesterday, and the day before yesterday. And those in the last two time zones it can be known as the hour of today, tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow.
Did you ever notice that the UK flag looks like a present. All it was missing was a big bow in the middle. Make sure you are good for Father Christmas and your stockings are hanging at the bedpost.
And don't forget to put out minced pie and brandy for Father Christmas.
Turboman is a fictional hero attached to the Twin Cities of Minnesota. Although the story of which state was the ultimate home of Paul Bunyan is debated, it is a fact that Turboman's home is Minnesota. Turboman came to life in the movie Jingle All The Way in 1996. It is a time stamped, pulse beast movie of the 1990s. You can see phones connected to walls! And the ubiquitous white phone with that small rubber antenna. No doubt, The 1990s will get their nostalgia boom in the next three years certainly by 2020.
The Turboman logo is on the drums and uniforms of the official Turboman Marching band.
Apparently Turboman is a part of the Marvel Comics Universe. You can see Captain America and the X-Men Pillow.
You can see the limited edition Turboman prop being held by our little dreamer.
Stan Lee made one last cameo in the later prere-release in this movie, to support the role of comic heroes. When Arnold is in the Mall of America and looking for the special ball, he rides an elevator with Mr. Lee.
