Live coverage of ISS (Dec 13 2006 22:12 GMT) - Live coverage of NASA attempting to retract the ISS solar panels NASA is attempting to retract up the huge solar panels that spread out either side of the ISS. They fold up concertina-like, like venetian blinds; and like venetian blinds they're getting snagged and hung up. Live tv feeds of the ISS, and you can hear NASA problem-solving on the fly. Absolutely fascinating stuff. |

Media Mole Rodeo: Maybe Don't Use Marci Klein As a Reference, FYI (Dec 13 2006 22:10 GMT) - The hour draws on apace when we'll have to pick a winner of this Media Mole Thingding. We waded once more through the onslaught of submissions and picked out a doozy -- an addendum to yesterday's post about SNL's talent exec, Marci Klein -- and her big-boobed fetish. This one adds another layer of bad-boss grossness, though -- we think it'll be right up your alley. And remember to keep sending in your moleish goodies -- you wouldn't want to miss out on an opportunity to inoculate yourself against the possibility of future Page Six mentions by hanging out with Paula Froelich, you scandalous thing. In conjunction with your Marci Klein loves the big boobed white girl piece, she did have a buxom asian assistant for about a minute. |

Is being Optimistic another workload you add to your daily portion ? [Freddy Daems] (Dec 13 2006 22:05 GMT) - Hello Fellow - Ecademists With the topic in mind I should stop telling you this , but so what, I am an Optimistic guy so I hope you are all feeling well today. I was talking to a guy today and he mentioned me that Optimism made him feel quite busy. Now what do you think : is the fact of being optimistic automatically adding some extra work on your table and are you feeling that you don't need to undergo this to get what you want in life ?
