Full Moon or Waxing Gibbous?

Hi, first post here

The Current Moon is listed as FULL MOON 100%

but, in my 'Lunar and Solar Activity For The Coming Week'

the Moon listed for Friday 18 Feb 2011 is listed as 'Waxing Gibbous 99.1%'


why?

coordinates at Latitude 37° 44' 55" S and Longitude 144° 57' 14" E

thank you,
