Thanks for sharing the link to the pirates and geopolitcs story. Good article.
Odd. The Leonids should have been over by a couple days. Fluke meteors are scary.
Also, did anyone else see the one we had in Seattle like that last week? I missed it!
Great. Something else to feature in my recurring apocalypse nightmares.
The greatest thing* about that meteor video is that it actually looks like it’s daytime for a moment – then back to complete darkness.
*Y’know, ‘cuz the list of great things about meteors striking the Earth is so long
Tthe French socialist party leadership link is bad reporting, it doesn’t say who is voting:
voters
Socialist party members
Socialist party leaders
delegates?????
Apparently they do this party leadership choice in like a one day process caled “voting” or something? Instead of a 13-month battle royal (no pun intended) involving arcane delegate formulas, superdelegates, and insider credentials committee battles on national TV.
Weird, huh? They just vote.
Wow. Vachemente fait.
Commies.
The meteor was actually Thursday night.
@3: I’m glad to hear that I’m not the only one who has recurring apocalypse nightmares.
The mothership has come for me at last!
That has given them ample time to start replicating and replacing the Earth’s leaders, then.
Where did it actually land?
