| Challenger disaster 22 years ago
New Hampshire Congressman Paul Hodes today introduced legislation to honor the Challenger crew. The resolution will be referred to the U.S. House Oversight and Government Reform Committee of which Hodes is a member. On January 28th, 1986, rubber O-rings failed soon after Challenger's launch, allowing flames to leak out and burn through the orange fuel tank. The oxygen and hydrogen fuel exploded. Challenger never made it into orbit. Meanwhile, Friday is the fifth anniversary since shuttle Columbia broke apart over East Texas. The entire crew perished. Misson Control is at Johnson Space Center in Houston. Copyright 2008 The Associated Press. All rights reserved. This material may not be published, broadcast, rewritten or redistributed.
Shipping Off to Macworld
The bags are packed, the batteries are charged, and in a few hours I'll be on a plane to San Francisco for Macworld '08. All eyes will be on the Moscone Center Tuesday morning at 9 a.m. when Apple (Nasdaq: AAPL) CEO Steve Jobs takes the stage to present the company's latest lines of products and services. Whatever he has in store will probably dominate the headlines in tech news circles, but there's more to Macworld than his 90-minute speech. .
She looks good!
You say it like it's a bad thing, as if having fat is something villainous and shameful. Not every woman has the body of a Victoria's Secret model, and that's actually a great thing. These ass-backwards views of what constitutes beauty are so ridiculous, I don't even understand why women discredit themselves by believing this BS. .
