Dave's link to the update on Richard Jewel also contained some information I was wondering about the other day. Apparently Eric Rudolph is still at large (they think he was the real bomber in the Atlanta case Jewel was wrongly accused of, plus he is wanted for several other bombings of abortion clinics.) Anyway, how can he still be at large? He's on the FBI's 10 most wanted list which means they are definitely looking for him, but more importantly, he's been all over the news (or at least he was a couple of years ago.) I thought that America's Most Wanted proves that there is nowhere to hide? They always catch everybody that shows up on that show. Somebody must have seen this guy. I am truely baffled. Either, a) someone is hiding him and doing all of his interfacing with the world (buying food, ect...) and Eric himself literally NEVER steps foot outside, or b) he moved somewhere they don't have any U.S. media penetration. And is b) even possible? Where the hell is this guy?

Anyone worried about the sun frying Earth sometime in the next billion years can rest easy: Astronomers have devised a way to move our planet to a safer orbit.

In a paper accepted by the journal Astrophysics and Space Science , planetary scientist Don Korycansky of the University of California-Santa Cruz and colleagues detail a plan to remove Earth from its current orbit to a cooler one using ''gravitational slingshot'' tugs provided by massive asteroids or comets redirected to pass nearby.

''Large-scale planetary engineering is possible with technical procedures we know about now,'' Korycansky says.

Schadenfreude, Dave? Is that an object lesson, or a broken link?
