President Obama's proposed changes to NASA's plans for manned space flight have implications for many aspects of the aerospace industry. Following the recommendations of the Augustine Committee, Obama decided to essentially terminate his predecessor's plans for resuming manned flights to the Moon, and an eventual mission to Mars. Now his administration's move toward privatizing space flight is drawing aerospace giant Boeing into the space tourism market.
When the year 2012 is mentioned, one usually assumes the worst. Dave Reneke, an Australian astronomy lecturer and columnist, may have just given reason to vindicate some fears — but not as bad as the movie 2012 would have one suspect.
A giant black hole is putting on a spectacular show and scientists at NASA's Chandra X-ray observatory have captured the action. The black hole, located in galaxy M87, is blasting gas outwards, causing scientists to compare what they are seeing in deep space to the eruption of a volcano.
A scientist working at the University of Sheffield in the UK has discovered the largest star ever found.
South Korean Rocket Fails Again
Written by Mary McHughAfter a day's delay in liftoff due to a malfunctioning fire extinguishing system on the launchpad, on June 10 at 5:01 p.m. South Korean time, the Naro-1 satellite launcher lifted off from the Naro Space Center at Goheung on the south coast. It then exploded about two and a half minutes later. This was the second failure in as many tries for the multistage rocket. Controllers who were at first cheering, were dismayed 137 seconds later at seeing a bright flash on their screens transmitted from the camera mounted on the tip of the rocket. At that time, the Naro-1 would have been about 43 miles above the earth. Ahn Byong-man, the Minister of Education, Science and Technology, told reporters that officials assume the explosion took place at that point. It was during the first-stage ignition.

Complete Jewish Bible (CJB) | New International Version (NIV) |
1 Woe to me! for I have become like the leavings of summer fruit, like the gleanings when the vintage is finished - there isn't a cluster worth eating, no early-ripened fig that appeals to me. | 1 What misery is mine! I am like one who gathers summer fruit at the gleaning of the vineyard; there is no cluster of grapes to eat, none of the early figs that I crave. |
2 The godly have been destroyed from the land, there is no one upright among humankind. They all lie in wait for blood, each hunts his brother with a net. | 2 The godly have been swept from the land; not one upright man remains. All men lie in wait to shed blood; each hunts his brother with a net. |
3 Their hands do evil well. The prince makes his request, the judge grants it for a price, and the great man expresses his evil desires - thus they weave it together. | 3 Both hands are skilled in doing evil; the ruler demands gifts, the judge accepts bribes, the powerful dictate what they desire-- they all conspire together. |
4 The best of them is a briar, the most upright worse than a thorn hedge. The time of your watchmen - of your punishment - has come; now they will be confused. | 4 The best of them is like a brier, the most upright worse than a thorn hedge. The day of your watchmen has come, the day God visits you. Now is the time of their confusion. |
5 Don't trust in your neighbor; don't put confidence in a close friend; shut the gates of your mouth even from [your wife], lying there with you in bed. | 5 Do not trust a neighbor; put no confidence in a friend. Even with her who lies in your embrace be careful of your words. |
6 For a son insults his father, a daughter rises against her mother, daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law - a person's enemies are the members of his own household. | 6 For a son dishonors his father, a daughter rises up against her mother, a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law-- a man's enemies are the members of his own household. |
7 But as for me, I will look to ADONAI, I will wait for the God of my salvation; my God will hear me. | 7 But as for me, I watch in hope for the LORD, I wait for God my Savior; my God will hear me. |
8 Enemies of mine, don't gloat over me! Although I have fallen, I will rise; though I live in the dark, ADONAI is my light. | 8 Do not gloat over me, my enemy! Though I have fallen, I will rise. Though I sit in darkness, the LORD will be my light. |
9 I will endure ADONAI's rage, because I sinned against him; until he pleads my cause and judges in my favor. Then he will bring me out to the light, and I will see his justice. | 9 Because I have sinned against him, I will bear the LORD's wrath, until he pleads my case and establishes my right. He will bring me out into the light; I will see his righteousness. |
10 My enemies will see it too, and shame will cover those who said to me, "Where is ADONAI your God?" I will gloat over them, as they are trampled underfoot like mud in the streets. | 10 Then my enemy will see it and will be covered with shame, she who said to me, "Where is the LORD your God?" My eyes will see her downfall; even now she will be trampled underfoot like mire in the streets. |
11 That will be the day for rebuilding your walls, a day for expanding your territory, | 11 The day for building your walls will come, the day for extending your boundaries. |
12 a day when [your] people will come [back] to you from Ashur and from the cities of Egypt, from Egypt and from as far as the Euphrates River, and from sea to sea, and from mountain to mountain. | 12 In that day people will come to you from Assyria and the cities of Egypt, even from Egypt to the Euphrates and from sea to sea and from mountain to mountain. |
13 The earth will be desolate for those living in it, as a result of their deeds. | 13 The earth will become desolate because of its inhabitants, as the result of their deeds. |
14 Shepherd your people with your staff, the flock that belongs to you, who live alone, like a forest in the middle of a fertile pasture. Let them feed in Bashan and Gil'ad, as they did in days of old. | 14 Shepherd your people with your staff, the flock of your inheritance, which lives by itself in a forest, in fertile pasturelands. Let them feed in Bashan and Gilead as in days long ago. |
15 "As in the days when you came out of Egypt, I will show them wonders." | 15 "As in the days when you came out of Egypt, I will show them my wonders." |
16 The nations will see and be put to shame, in spite of all their power. They will cover their mouths with their hands, and their ears will be deafened. | 16 Nations will see and be ashamed, deprived of all their power. They will lay their hands on their mouths and their ears will become deaf. |
17 They will lick the dust like snakes; they will emerge from their fortresses trembling like reptiles that crawl about on the earth; they will come with fear to ADONAI our God, afraid because of you. | 17 They will lick dust like a snake, like creatures that crawl on the ground. They will come trembling out of their dens; they will turn in fear to the LORD our God and will be afraid of you. |
18 Who is a God like you, pardoning the sin and overlooking the crimes of the remnant of his heritage? He does not retain his anger forever, because he delights in grace. | 18 Who is a God like you, who pardons sin and forgives the transgression of the remnant of his inheritance? You do not stay angry forever but delight to show mercy. |
19 He will again have compassion on us, he will subdue our iniquities. You will throw all their sins into the depths of the sea. | 19 You will again have compassion on us; you will tread our sins underfoot and hurl all our iniquities into the depths of the sea. |
20 You will show truth to Ya'akov and grace to Avraham, as you have sworn to our ancestors since days of long ago. | 20 You will be true to Jacob, and show mercy to Abraham, as you pledged on oath to our fathers in days long ago. |

how do you counter the OP akali.
i have fought akali with, cho, malphite, shen, tf, ww, rammus, and every time akali, face rapes me. i get a banshees, 2 FoN and exhaust her. she still kills me in like 3 spell casts. how the HELL do you stop her? these arent the only champs ive fought her with, just the ones that i had off the top of my head.
CC. All of the people you mention have some sort of harc cc. Use that CC on her and have your team stick together and focus her. Don't just let her rape your carries and get fed.
Dont 1v1 akali.
Problem solved. |
Don't be stupid?
Considering the fact that you got 2 FoN and a banshee's and you exhausted her, it leads me to think that you did something stupid in order for her to kill you... |
How fed was that akali,cuz lol with 2 fon's and high hp pool,she would need like 900 AP to get rid of you fast.
1: Don't feed her
2: Punch her in the mouth when she appears 3: Don't feed her etc etc |
shes insanely fragile even with rylia's but shes great at juking, you need to carry oracle is your a tank or if your squishy type champ a vision ward, drop it in her stealth field and hunt her.
well first off in the laning phase you want a strong laner to face her and aggressively zone her before she hits 6 or buys any AP but failing that if she does get farmed/fed you need a tanky champ to buy oracles and some hard CC plus focus. MR will help but most AP champs these days get a void staff so shell pretty much always deal good damage.
TL;DR out lane her, failing that what Fluffy1 said. |
Oracles hard counters akali. She relies on her bubble for to stay alive in a teamfight. Without it, she is squishy, squish her.
Akali's opitmal build doesn't allow a lot of flexability item wise...
So Akali's rarely has any defense or any MPen (especially if they are using their runes to activate both passives) So Negatron cloak and Focus fire. The thing that annoys me the most is when enemy Warricks Ulti in the middle of a teamfight argh!. |

Last winter was one of the wettest on record, dropping 90 inches of rain in some southern California mountain areas and creating the thickest vegetation growth in memory, and damaging more than 2,000 miles of fire access roads used to protect 2.3 million acres of forests. In addition to the many thousands of trees killed by a massive pine beetle infestation, newly grown vegetation is drying up under triple-digit temperatures and raising fears of a repeat of the devastating fire season of 2003. President Bush signed an emergency funding bill in May allocating $25 million to fix roads in southern California?s national forests but Congress has acted slower than expected in providing the money so some of the repairs might not be done until October.

Lunchtime Quiz: Deciphering the Dewey Decimal
We felt guilty for failing to compose a library-related quiz for National Library Week last week, so we're making amends today. We love our libraries!
In the days before the Internet put much of the world's information at your fingertips, the world's scholars had to find a way to organize the growing number of books. The Dewey Decimal System divided works into ten major groups, and hundreds of subsets within those groups. Can you identify the ten main groups by matching their numbers with their corresponding subject matter? Good luck!
Take the Quiz: Deciphering the Dewey Decimal
Not really library-related but in my experience, librarians tend to be cat lovers (don't flame me....I know not everyone loves cats -- I'm speaking generally and from _my_ experience.)
Here's a chance to turn your cat loving tendencies into a travel career that might pay more than your library job...(at least for a while) courtesy of Purina. Read all about it here.
In support of libraries
John Allison: "I believe passionately in libraries and have been horrified by the prospect of closures throughout the system as part of local government cuts. I tried to make a useful comic to help but it wound up being a bit... flawed?"
Library Of Congress Adds 3 Titles To List Of Films That Should Be Destroyed Forever
NFIP president Lawrence Feldman said as workers shoveled every known copy of Hollow Man 2, Nights In Rodanthe, and Rock Star into a furnace burning at 6,000 degrees Fahrenheit. "I'd like to thank our librarians for their painstaking work combing thrift stores for VHS tapes and personally deleting every known digital version of these unremarkable films."

Minardi have announced they will field a third car in Friday practice at this weekends Hungarian Grand Prix. Test driver Chanoch Nissany will be at the wheel of the PS05, making him the first Israeli to play an official part in a championship round.
Nissany resides in Budapest and speaks Hungarian, so his Hungaroring appearance is sure to generate plenty of media interest. He was granted the necessary Super-licence only this week, having completed nearly 1600 kilometres of Formula One testing in the last year.
"We are very pleased that, after an extensive F1 testing programme, Chanoch will be able to assume the role of Friday Test Driver for the team at the Hungarian Grand Prix," said Minardi boss, Paul Stoddart. "Aside from providing our technical staff with useful additional data, I'm sure Chanoch's presence on track this weekend will help to raise the profile of Formula One in both Israel and Hungary, where he is a very popular figure. This can only be a good thing for the overall health of the World Championship."
Nissany is no stranger to the Hungaroring, having competed in the Hungarian, Belgian and Italian rounds of the FIA F3000 International Championship in 2004. The Israeli will also have the distinction of being the oldest driver this weekend. In fact, Friday will mark not only his Grand Prix debut, but also his 42nd birthday.
Minardi said that Nissanys appearance will initially be a one-off programme. Nissany has previously tested for Jordan, who also confirmed on Thursday that former Minardi racer Nicolas Kiesa will again be their third driver this weekend.

Imprison Royce Miller
Every story has two sides. I would expect anyone that would "sign" a petition of such magnitude would, at the very least, become informed as to BOTH sides of the story. It has come to my attention that Royce Miller's mother, Dana Chapman, has started an online petition to "free" Royce Miller. Let us not forget that after a full and fair jury trial that spanned over three weeks, twelve jurors unanimously voted that Royce Miller was indeed guilty of murder. Before you take a side and put your name on a petition, seek the facts. If this is an issue of importance to you, become educated prior to posting on an open forum. Remember, the young woman (17 at the time her life was taken) that was murdered by Royce Miller has a family too. Imagine how you would feel to stumble across a petition to free the person that was deemed guilty by a 12 person jury. A petition that refers to the young woman as "the deceased girl" or "the dead girl." Have some respect. The author of this petition attended every single minute of every single day of the trial of Royce Miller and I can tell you that he was most certainly GUILTY as charged.

I've got my first batch of banana wine in the fermenter. However the starting gravity appears to be 1.120. I see most fruit wines should start around 1.070. Is this acceptable? I followed what I believe to be a good recipe from a solid source. What will be the outcome if it is way to high?
I decided to buy to most ripe bananas I could find. Oh well live and learn.
You should be fine, but just watch for a stall and be prepared. Banana wine takes a good 1 to 2 years to come into its own.
Motto: quel che sara sara
I'm aware of the long aging process with this one. How do I fight a stall if I get one?
Repitch a good yeast EC1118 or KV1116 usually do the trick. But you can help prevent by stirring up to twice daily, no airlock until SG drops by 2/3, use primary bucket with lid just resting in place, staggered nutrient dosing, proper temp.
I started with 1/2 tsp yeast energizer. Should I add more ? When?
Well after 24 hours since pitching the yeast the gravity has fallen to 1.100. Looks like I'm headed in the right direction.

Kids hurting selves on purpose at younger age
PHOENIX -- A recent study from the Journal of Pediatrics said that children as young as 7 years old harm themselves on purpose to deal with emotional stress.
They do this by cutting, burning, or hitting themselves.
The numbers come from interviews with children in Denver and central New Jersey. Nearly 8 percent of the third-graders interviewed said they had hurt themselves intentionally.
"I suspect it may have to do with the children having more media exposure and interactive media exposure," said Dr. Urszula Kotlow, a child therapist at Phoenix Children's Hospital.
According to Kotlow, there are many reasons why kids self-harm, but she attributes some of the latest cases to isolation from others and more time interacting online.
She believes more kids are finding themselves in adultlike situations on the Internet when they aren't mature enough to cope with those situations.
"It's like they are being traumatized with the experiences they have with cyberbullying, and with the more frequent, uncensored exposure," said Kotlow.
Kotlow believes less exposure to the Internet and cell phones could help prevent kids from harming themselves.
If a child is self-harming, parents should try to seek counseling for them.

Villa tempted by Owen
07 Jun 2009 - 16:22:16
Aston Villa are the latest club to be linked with a summer move for Newcastle United striker Michael Owen.
Martin O'Neill is reported to be keen to sign the former England striker, despite his poor form for the Magpies last season.
However, Villa's finances mean that he would need to take a pay-cut of around £70,000 a week from what he earns currently at St James' Park.
Italian giants AS Roma are also believed to be interested in signing Owen and, while they would be able to afford more wages than Villa, the former Liverpool and Real Madrid star would still have to take a cut in pay.

Help!!!! I'm making a 10/8/6 cake for tomorrow which will be driven two hours to the venue. I just realized that I don't have a 6" plate :( Now what???? Do I use the 8" SPS plate and bubble tea straws for the 6"? Would a Wilton 6" plate work with the SPS legs? Or just use bubble tea straws and a dowel?
Unfortunately I won't be delivering the cake so stacking the 6" at the venue is not an option. The cake will travel chilled. Any suggestions would be much appreciated!

KERI: A massive portion of a mining dump near Bicholim collapsed on Tuesday, displacing an enormous amount of earth and water, which in turn demolished a retaining rubble wall.
When a smaller portion had initially collapsed in the morning, the mining firm concerned tried to retain the rest of the dump with plastic, but this failed.
The incident occurred in survey No. 78/1, less than 20m from the residential area, Barazan Nagar. It has left residents of the 50-odd houses in the Nagar very worried.
"The company has failed miserably to take precautionary measures and this caused the calamity. It's a violation of Indian Bureau of Mines' directives," claimed resident Deepak Parab Gaonkar.
Bicholim deputy collector Narayan Gad inspected the incident site on Wednesday evening along with officials of the mining firm.
Gad told TOI, "The company has been given specific instructions about precautionary steps to be taken. I will also write to the director general of mines safety to inspect the site and submit a report of its findings."
As a large portion of earth has fallen into the mining pit, and given the continuous rains this region has been receiving, the mining firm has deployed four pumps to remove the accumulated water.
Mining firm officials Shrishail Gauda and Sandip Naik were present during the site inspection.
Gauda, general manager, Sesa Mines, Dhabdhaba, told TOI, "The company has undertaken, on a war-footing, necessary measures to avoid any calamity. At the moment, mining activities in the area have been stopped."
The incident is another reminder that dumps, especially during the monsoon, are a threat to those living in Goa's mining belt region, said activist Ramesh Gawas.
"For the people living in the mining belt of Bicholim and Sattari life has become a veritable hell. Mining rejects are indiscriminately dumped and are making their way into agricultural fields and ruining their fertility. Massive siltation and flooding are commonplace. Pollution control measures are practically nonexistent," he elaborated.
On July 16, last year, a landslide in a Mulgao mine caused large-scale destruction of agricultural fields and horticulture plantations.
Residents of Mulgao, Shirgao and Advalpal in Bicholim taluka and Honda, Advoi and Pissurlem in Sattari taluka have repeatedly expressed fears of calamities caused by irresponsible mining activities.
