Earth closest to sun on January 1-2, 2013
« on: January 02, 2013, 03:37:25 pm »
When the New Year brought in the year 2013, our planet Earth was very close to its perihelion – its closest point to the sun for the year. In 2013, Earth comes closest to the sun on Wednesday, January 2 at 5 hours Universal Time (UT). Translating UT to Central Time in the United Sates, perihelion happens last this evening, on Tuesday, January 1, at 11:00 p.m. CST

You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.
Rational fear and anger at vicious murderous Islamic terrorists is the same as irrational antisemitism, according to the Leftists
