Blue Moon on New Year's Eve

Every 2.5 years there is a full blue moon twice in a calendar month. However, having a blue moon on New Year's Eve happens every few decades. The last blue moon we had on New Year's Eve was in 1990. Even more rare, though, is the partial lunar eclipse that will accompany the blue moon. A partial lunar eclipse is when the moon is partially darkened by the Earth's shadow. Not only everyone will have the opportunity to experience this, only Europe, Africa, Asia, the Middle East, Brazil, Canada, Australia and parts of the Unites States. So as everyone is toasting to the New Year, HBSunglassCompany, would like everyone to stop and take a moment to admire the blue moon.

Rose Parade

With only a few days left until New Year's Day preparations for the 2010 Tournament of Roses Parade is in overdrive. Volunteers have until New Year's Eve to put their final touches on the floats. The theme for this years parade is "A Cut Above The Rest." There is speculation that the largest float in history will be shown in this years parade and it will be a float of a giant bulldog. Around 300,000 people show up every year to watch the Rose Parade live. If you are planning on attending this years parade then do not forget your sunglasses because it is suppose to be beautiful sunny weather on the first of the year.
