Nearest Star System Might Harbor Earth Twin

Scientists believe they may have found another earth. There is a planet in another star system that was formed by terrestrial planets that are likely to have formed around a star. A model showed planets forming around the star Alpha Centauri B in what is called the "habitable zone". This is where liquid water can exist on a planet's surface. I think it would be awesome if there was another planet like earth out there because then we'd have a reason to build better rockets and such to go to that planet and start growing more people on that planet. Then it would be just like having two earths.
Astronomers have for some time pinned the Alpha Centauri system as one that was likely to form planets. If such a planet is found there, spacecraft could be launched to find out more information about the world, such as whether it had water on the surface or not.

Underpass Collision Cancels 800-pound Man's Date

An 800-pound man named Manuel Uribe, a man who once weighed 1,235 pounds, was going to a date when there was an accident beneath an overpass. The bed that was holding Uribe was damaged: a post holding up the sun tarp on the bed, hit the bottom of the overpass, knocking it off the bed. After that, Uribe's blood pressure was so low, paramedics advised him not to go to the party. The party was for the success of him losing 440 pounds in 2 years, and a celebration of his girlfriend's birthday. Last year, Uribe went out into the streets to enjoy the San Nicolas de los Garza sunshine. That's neat, and it's cool that he's actually trying to lose weight. A lot of people wouldn't care if they weighed 1,235 pounds.
Uribe has lost all that weight by going on a high-protein diet. He first started the diet in January 2006 after going on national television and pleading for help. Despite the setback of the date not working out, he is hoping that he can go later in June. On June 11, when he will turn 43. He has relied on his Mother and friends to feed him and clean him since the summer of 2002, and has been bedridden. As a child, Uribe weighed over 250 pounds, and just kept growing.

Britain's Prince Harry Longs For Return to Combat Zone

Twenty-three-year-old Prince Harry had to abort a military mission to Afghanistan because press received information of his whereabouts and started to track him down. He was supposed to serve until April but was only able to serve for about 10 weeks. Though he would love to go back out, he won't be able to until the press fades down. Which is estimated to be in about 12 to 18 months. He was trained as a fighter pilot in the military and was incredibly eager to go overseas to fight for the country. I think the press just need to keep their noses out of this stuff. If he wants to fight overseas, they should let him, rather than butting into his business.
The Air Chief Marshall, head of Britain's army, said that any future deployment would depend on whether Harry poses as a risk to his colleagues. Doing this would cause many difficulties for Prince Harry and all those who support and help his service. He and his family were disappointed that he had been forced to abort his combat tour, yet security acknowledged that Harry's service in Afghanistan could make him a target for extremists in Britain. Posts were actually found on the internet of plots to kill Prince Harry and send a video of it to his family. Other past royals have seen combat, some more than once. The most recent was the princes' uncle.

Phoenix Teen Admits Killing Father for Restricting His Use of Myspace

A fifteen-year-old boy form Phoenix, Arizona named Hughstan Schickler killed his father last month because he wouldn't let him use myspace. He was going to commit suicide in front of his Father at first, but then decided to kill his Father first, then commit suicide. Instead, he killed his Father, then called his friend and told her he was going to commit suicide, but she talked him out of it. That's just disgusting and ridiculous. Why would someone be so stupid as to do that. You can't get on myspace. So what! It's not the end of the world. Just talk to friends at school. Go places with them. Do stuff like that. I can't believe he killed his own dad though!
Hughstan sneaked up behind his Father, 49-year-old Ted Schickler, and shot him with a 12-gauge shotgun. After talking to his friend, she convinced him to call the police and sort it out with them. Hughstan said he hated his Father for taking the internet away because myspace was how he communicated with his friends. He said it just made him so depressed all the time.

Earth's Clouds Teem With Live Bacteria

Scientists have found living bacteria in clouds that grab up water vapor in the atmosphere to make cloud droplets. Tiny particles of dust, soot, and airplane exhaust are known to provide these surfaces. Isn't that dangerous? Can't that cause sickness in people because of all the nasty stuff in the clouds? I mean, rain comes from the clouds, so the rain falls and could carry nasty bacteria. I don't know much about it because I'm not a scientist, but i bet they'd tell us if it was dangerous.
The bacteria are good at collecting the water to form cloud droplets. Snow samples were taken from all over the world to be tested, and it was discovered that Antarctic snow has the least concentrations of biological nuclei. Sites like Montana and France had the highest.

Dispute over teen romance suspected in Texas family murders

A family in Texas was attacked on Sunday, leaving three dead and one injured. The dead were Penny Caffey, 37; Matthew Caffey, 13; and Tyler Caffey, 8. The Father, Terry Caffey, is in critical but stable condition in Tyler. Four suspects were taken into custody, one being their 16-year-old daughter, whose name was not released because of her age. That's just disgusting and wrong. I can't believe someone would be so sadistic that they would kill their own family over some stupid romance feud. That's why teenagers really shouldn't date. Because they go getting attached, and think they're in love when they really aren't.
The family was found stabbed and shot repeated times in their home, near 20 acres of remote woodland. The daughter remained in custody on capital murder charges Sunday, the day after the pre-dawn attack. No other information was released about the family, or daughter.

Critic cities stats -- Earth cooling down, not warming up

All the things being said about global warming have been proven wrong. Scientists just found out that the world isn't warming up, it's cooling down. Since 2001, the temperature has slightly declined and scientists are getting worried about the 'disturbingly quiet solar cycle'. This, I think, is more than likely true. Because the global warming activists haven't shown any proof of the earth warming. The only proof they've had was shown in Al Gore's movie, 'An Inconvenient Truth'. Even that didn't really show any proof.
I think all of that was just a scam to get attention. But the global cooling is probably true, because the scientists studied up on their homework, and had proof. An investigation has recently been called as to why temperatures were not continuing to rise as predicted. It was shown that from 1940-1975, the earth's temperature has lowered while the CO2's temperature has risen. Global warming activists have tried to promote the opposite, yet had no proof. As shown in 'An Inconvenient Truth'.
