Misc. Debris
2008-03-19 19:12:00 So here's what's coming up that y'all might be interested in checking out.Slim Cessna's new album, Cipher, is coming out on March 25th. You can download a couple of songs from their website here. From what I've heard, it's vintage Slim Cessna, which means it is damn good! The Rocket from the Crypt R.I.P. CD/DVD is out and available. I ordered mine yesterday and am anxiously waiting it's arrival. The Night Marchers release has been moved back to April 22nd, but keep your eyes out for them because they are touring. And of course, if you haven't bought it, or ordered it, there is Dig, Lazarus, Dig! I got my copy and it is a must have. Many reviews are already calling it the album of 2008, which ain't bad considering it is only March.

Fly-over collapse: Rescue work on to clear debris
2007-09-11 00:34:00 HYDERABAD: Rescue workers were engaged in removing the debris at an under-construction flyover in the busy Panjagutta area which collapsed on Sunday night killing two persons and injuring 10 others. The mishap initially triggered fears that at least 15 persons could have lost their lives as the giant iron girders and concrete slabs caved in and flattened several vehicles. However, after clearing most of the rubble on Monday morning, the police said two persons — Ankit Arora from Haryana, an executive in Infosys and M B Kumar, a close aide of TRS leader S Santhosh Reddy were killed and condition of one of the injured was serious. The vehicles parked under the flyover took the brunt of the crash as tonnes of steel and cement came down after the iron scaffolding, supporting the pre-fabricated cement segments, gave way. “We hope to complete the debris clearance work in a couple of hours. A departmental inquiry has been ordered and action will be taken on the basis of its...

Satellite Moved To Avoid Chinese ASAT Debris
2007-07-07 13:28:00 NASA's Terra Satellite Moved to Avoid Chinese ASAT DebrisWASHINGTON - Flight controllers at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center, Greenbelt, Md., had to maneuver the Terra environmental spacecraft in late June to avoid orbital debris created by the Jan. 11 test of a Chinese anti-satellite (A-Sat) weapon. As written previously, China's ASAT test was a dangerous act of aggression. The fact that NASA had to reposition a satellite only exemplifies the stupidity of space warfare around Earth.

2007-07-03 12:18:00 Here is an odd coincidence... Flight 93 debris was found in and around "Indian Lake", which if you read some of the information through various websites, suggests that the plane was shot down on 9/11. Just to be clear, the Indian Lake they are talking about is the one in Pennsylvania ? not New York.

Tumbling space debris on your front lawn?
2007-03-30 04:13:00 Many people favor initiatives to improve safety and security. They may dream about peace and harmony yet, still fear what may be around the corner. Increased surveillance and vigilence help. Still, incidents continue to unfold which cause us to question how safe we really are on a fragile blue planet. How might we rethink our actions and learn from the consequences of our choices?In late February 2007, debris from a Russian rocket booster that exploded over Australia. Few people who realize&nb-sp;satellites and spacecraft are launched into space also realize what happens to them. Most people who have access to television and cell phones don't often think about the telecommunications and other systems systems functioning high above that enable us to live as we do. Not only do the spacecraft which cease to function contribute to the growing cloud of space junk above the Earth, but pieces unpredictably fall in the atmo...
