10 Must See Pictures Of Vietnam

If you were born between 1944 and 1954 you were definitely aware of the war in Vietnam. I remember being in 6th grade and my teacher stood in front. He said the most amazing thing. He stated that one day we would be fighting in this war. He was right. 1972 is  when I graduated from High School and several of my class mates got drafted to Vietnam. My brother Steve did two tours over there and to this day I am sure that he died of Agent Orange, a weed killer that they used in Vietnam but I am getting off course. I could never understand why my parents couldn't release their hatred of Germans and Japanese until later in life. I would love to visit Vietnam but can't stand the food, so I will look at the pictures.

Discover the color Blue

Why is the sky blue? When sunlight reaches Earth's atmosphere, it is scattered in all directions by all the gases and particles in the air. Blue is scattered by air molecules more than other colors because it travels as shorter, smaller waves. This is why we see a blue sky most of the time.
Closer to the horizon, the sky fades to a lighter blue or white. The sunlight reaching us from low in the sky has passed through even more air than the sunlight reaching us from overhead. As the sunlight has passed through all this air, the air molecules have scattered and rescattered the blue light many times in many directions. Also, the surface of Earth has reflected and scattered the light. All this scattering mixes the colors together again so we see more white and less blue.

What the color blue says about you!

Blue: Soft, soothing, compassionate and caring, Blue is the color of deliberation and introspection, conservatism and duty. Patient, persevering, conscientious, sensitive and self-controlled, Blues like to be admired for their steady character and wisdom. They are faithful, but are often worriers with somewhat inflexible beliefs and can be too cautious, and suspicious of flamboyant behavior.
