Exposed: Does it seem like everyone on Facebook is pregnant? Well, thank God they’re not because our welfare system is already broken; jk. Apparently, this is a campaign to highlight an awareness because next month October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Also this month is Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month so these Facebook games are being posted to trick everyone especially males into talking about women’s health. They’re working I guess… Below I have posted the message that started it all. Come to www.traemcneely.com if you want anything official about what’s happening on Facebook or the Internet.

Following our last Facebook trend alert, why are women putting inches in their status, we’re bringing you another one. With October aka Breast Cancer Awareness Month right around the corner the ladies of Facebook have decided on a new game to play with male minds. The newestFacebook trend is weeks and cravings.

You may see women posting something like, “I’m 4 weeks and craving skittles” or “I’m 13 weeks and craving gummy worms”. Why are women posting weeks in their Facebook status? And why are women posting something that sounds like they’re pregnant on Facebook? Here’s the email I received about the game:

Ok pretty ladies, it’s that time of year again, in support of breast cancer awareness!! So we all remember last years game of writing your bra color as your status?…..or the way we like to have our handbag handy? Remember last year so many people took part that it made national news and, the constant updating of status reminded everyone why we’re doing this and helped raise awareness!! Do NOT tell any males what the status’ mean, keep them guessing!! And please copy and paste (in a message )this to all your female friends to see if we can make a bigger fuss this year than last year!!! I did my part… now YOUR turn ! Go on ladies…and let’s have all the males guessing! .. It’s time to confuse the men again (not that its really that hard to do ) Everyone knows it makes their brains work wonders on what we’re talking about!! The idea is to choose the month you were born and the day you were born. Pass this on to the girls only and lets see how far it reaches around. The last one about the bra went round all over the world. So you’ll write… I’m (your birth month) weeks and I’m craving (your birth date)!!! as your status. Example: Feb 14^th is: I’m 2 weeks and craving Chocolate mints!!

Did you ever look up into the sky on a perfectly clear day and wonder why the sky above us is such a beautiful shade of blue? Most of us have wondered this. But most of us don’t think about the fact that there really isn’t a “sky” that has a blue color.
How does the Sun’s bright, warm light, which is actually white, produce the colors we see in the sky, or any of the objects on Earth for that matter? To get to the bottom of this we have to understand that all of the natural light from the sun is actually made up of a range of colors. This is what we see in a rainbow or when we see light that separates through a prism, for example.

Though light does travel in straight lines when it is interrupted by something it is actually made up of waves that vary in length. Our eyes see different colors, depending on the overall length of these waves. For example, when we see colors on the blue end of the spectrum we are experiencing shorter light waves. Light waves in the red area of the spectrum are longer than the blue waves.
Light will continue to travel on a straight path until it is stopped or re-directed. Of course, a mirror does this, as does a prism. Ordinary objects are also intercepting light. The atmosphere above us also has a unique effect on the white light of the Sun. Various gases in the atmosphere help scatter light from the Sun.

This is the basic reason for the “blue” sky we see. The blue waves of the light spectrum go in almost every direction when they contact the different molecules in our atmosphere. The other colors – reds, yellows, violets etc. – aren’t spread around as much as the blue waves.

Of course the sky can appear as different shades of blue. We see the deeper blues above us, where the air is generally thinner. The blue light isn’t “diluted” by molecules of the many gases that make up our atmosphere. Near the Earth, the air is a bit “thicker” and the blue light is widely scattered until it appears as a lighter blue or even white.

Some people have grown up with the notion that the sky is blue because it is reflecting the ocean’s color. But this is not the basic reason for the color we see. We also have to think of what the term “sky” means. The only solid objects above us are the tiny gas molecules that we don’t see and the large objects – stars – that we can sometimes see. There is no solid “bowl” of sky that is actually colored blue, by the ocean or for any other reason.

We might see reds and yellows at sunset, near the Earth. This is because of the molecules of gases, pollution etc. that re-direct the Sun’s light and allow us to see different colors. The waves of blue light are completely scattered while other colors remain visible to us.
