A ten story sized asteroid, similar to the object that exploded over Siberia destroying 80 million trees in June 1908, came hurling near the earth at an altitude of 72,000 kilometers this past Saturday. With an explosive capacity of 1000 Hiroshima sized atomic bombs, an earth impact or air burst would have been disastrous. It is NOT reassuring that we only had three days notice prior to the fly-by. You can read the full story here.
Searching for the most ergonomically correct keyboard known to man, I discovered the miraculous Maltron keyboard. I have been using a Maltron since 2006 and no longer have Carpal-Tunnel issues. It does take around twenty hours of use to adjust to the split layout, but once you do, typing speed is increased by approximately 20%.
In the 1940's and 50's there was absolutely no way to escape the presence of Venetian blinds. Atomic powered spaceships were not immune to this phenomenon.

Neil takes refuge behind the truck. He wanted to see exposed breasts (standard fare at Mardi Gras) but was chased by gay men all day! The Taco Truck was parked near the parade route, on the edge of the gay bar district.
