She said the effect of DA14 hitting earth would have been similar to the so-called ���Tunguska event.��� In June of 1908, an object detonated in the air over remote Siberia, near the Tunguska River. Yeomans said that blast knocked down trees over about 800 square miles. Amy Mainzer, principal investigator for one phase of the Near-Earth Object project, said DA14 probably came from a belt of asteroids between Mars and Jupiter. For the most part, these asteroids are in ���stable��� orbits, according to Mainzer, but sometimes something kicks one out of the asteroid belt in such a way that it begins the long journey toward earth. Mainzer said she will be involved in using radar and telescopes using the infrared spectrum, to get precise size measurements as well as data on the makeup of DA14. The NASA scientists said calculations suggest the asteroid has been circling the sun on roughly the same one-year cycle as the earth, but the gravitational attraction of the earth during next week's pass will shift the rock's orbit. After that, the orbits of the earth and DA14 will be dramatically divergent. NASA has a range of facilities around the globe that nightly search the sky for asteroids. When there���s an object of the size of this asteroid, with a trajectory that brings it into the earth's neighborhood, it is subjected to intense scrutiny to determine whether it is a threat or just a passing visitor. Johnson said NASA and other partners around the globe have identified about 10,000 such objects over the last 15 years of concerted study, and the space agency predicts that might be as much as 10 percent of the total asteroids out there.

He declared Republican ideas for reducing the deficit ������even worse������ than the unpalatable deals Washington had to stomach during his first term. In his first State of the Union address since winning re-election, Obama conceded economic revival is an ������unfinished task,������ but he claimed clear progress and said he was seeking to build on it as he embarks on four more years in office. ������We have cleared away the rubble of crisis, and we can say with renewed confidence that the state of our union is strong,������ Obama said, speaking before a joint session of Congress and a television audience of millions. In specific proposals for his second term, an expanded the ownership of Coco to encompass her two professional handlers, Lois DeMers and Dina Manship Planche, Divens said. Coco has only been competing in shows around the country for about a year and a half, Divens said. Until that point, she was just a pet, but a year ago in April, a nationally recognized handler took note of Coco and told the couple they ���owe it to the 7A and climate change legislation. Standing in Obama���s way is a Congress that remains nearly as divided as it was during the final years of his first term, when Washington lurched from one crisis to another. The president implored lawmakers to break through partisan logjams, asserting that ������the greatest nation on Earth cannot keep conducting its business by drifting from one manufactured crisis to the next.������ ������Americans don���t expect government to solve every problem,������ he said. ������They do expect us to forge reasonable compromise where we can.������ The staff at Red Bluff Simple Cremations would like to thank all of the families who trust us with their loved ones needs.

Always glad to set the record straight. ** * Thoughts after the election: I guess by now die hard Governor Knight is convinced that he was beaten. And Mr. Knowland said if he did not get elected, he would quit politics. So, that makes one more off the government payroll. Labor leaders should not spend too much time rejoicing over the defeat of proposition 18. Instead they should figure what is wrong when 3382 people in Tehama County alone voted to do away with unions. Right to work legislation is not the answer for unions are definitiely needed to insure justice for their members. What is needed are regulations and laws to see that employers and consumers are also given consideration. Democrats will start wild government spending and hasten more inflation, but for some reason, there are always enough good conservative men in the house and senate to keep the wilder ones under control. Tehama County elected Mr. O���Sullivan as our state senator because we were way overdue for a change. Not too many years in the future, Tehama County should be represented by a local man. We now have about half the votes in this district. Senator Metzger was our last Senator from Tehama County and that was many years ago. And on the subject of politics, it was refreshing to see that a rich man was elected Governor of New York in spite of his wealth. A poor ignorant man has a much better chance of being elected to any office than a rich successful man. I think it started back when the Bible said it is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter into heaven. It got to the point where ���poor but honest��� was used as one word, whereas ���rich��� was associated with the 3 words that President Truman called that newspaper reporter. *** Reading from a 1915 edition of the Daily News, ���C.B. Burrel, principal of Corning Public School, met a Mr. Reynolds on the street and they argued about the latter���s son being disciplined for some infraction at school. Whereupon Professor Burrel hit Mr. Reynolds so hard in the nose that it made the blood fly and damaged the bicycle Mr. Reynolds was sitting on.��� Teachers must have been tougher or more demonstrative in those days .
