Letter to Congress April 17 2006 The Honorable Senator Kay Bailey Hutchinson 2246 Rayburn House Office Building Washington, DC 20515-3223 Dear Senator: As a retired NASA aerospace engineer, I and a growing number of my colleagues are very concerned about the technical and management issues with the space shuttle replacement, the Crew Exploration Vehicle/Crew Launch Vehicle (CEV/CLV).

NASA: JULY 4 LAUNCH A GO - Shuttle Launch on Despite Damaged Foam NASA gave the green light Monday night for a Fourth of July shuttle liftoff despite worries about a piece of foam that popped off Discovery's external fuel tank while the spacecraft sat on the launch pad. The decision was sure to stir more debate about whether the space agency was putting its flight schedule ahead of safety. The 3-inch triangular piece of foam that appeared to come from a 5- inch-long crack late Sunday or early Monday is far smaller than the foam chunk that brought down Columbia, killing seven astronauts in But NASA managers spent most of Monday pondering whether to go ahead with the launch. Some outside ...

And attorneys for the city said the cross was part of a broader memorial that was important to the community. The 29-foot ...

Gretchen Wilson invades Tampa on Saturday Cox News Service WEST PALM BEACH -- Gretchen Wilson performed for the President of the United States last week, but don't ask her any questions about politics. "I just keep my opinions to myself," said Wilson. "I just don't think that most country artists are qualified to speak intelligently on politics. We all have our own opinion but I would be silly to throw it out there because, guaranteed, everybody is not going to agree with me. I'm a singer, a songwriter. Ask a politician if you want political answers." But politics aside, country music's Redneck Woman is a little bit in awe of the man. "No matter what your ...

Nasa is to press ahead with next month's space shuttle launch against the advice of the agency's chief safety officer and top engineer, who have warned that the same problems that doomed Columbia in 2003 could lead to another catastrophe. The decision followed two days of "spirited discussion" among senior managers at Kennedy Space Centre about the risk of foam insulation falling from Discovery's fuel tank and striking the shuttle during its planned lift-off on July 1. Michael Griffin, the Nasa administrator, overruled colleagues who wanted the mission postponed for safety improvements, arguing that there was no danger. "We have elected to take the risk," he said. But he ...

It was the biggest single-day country music event in local history, drawing more than 40,000 concertgoers with a lineup featuring Gretchen Wilson, Big & Rich, Dierks Bentley and Tacoma-bred Blaine Larsen. Stadiums previously have been the near-exclusive domain of such rockers as the Rolling Stones, Paul McCartney, U2 and Metallica. The day was filled with surprises, from the appearance of four Vietnam veterans who survived a 1965 ambush to Wilson's two-song tribute to Led Zeppelin and local rockers Ann and Nancy Wilson of Heart. African American country-rapper Cowboy Troy joined Big & Rich, and Uncle Kracker (of Kid Rock fame) even showed up for a duet with Chesney on the ...

It's John Rich, of the duo Big & Rich, who's been writing with and producing Anderson. "I might add that he's a great young producer," said Anderson. "We met and got to be friends, and we started writing together. The songs we were doing got to being real good, and people got interested. "This (his new stuff) has been talked about around town for a while, but you know how talk is. The heat didn't get turned up until three or four weeks ago." Now, with a hip young producer, a batch of new tunes, and a major-label signing that appears to be imminent, one of country-music's most distinct and consistently intriguing artists may soon be back on the airwaves for, ...

According to http://CMT.com, AEROSMITH's Steven Tyler makes a guest appearance on country artist Keith Anderson's new single, the title track from his debut album, "Three Chord Country and American Rock & Roll". The album was produced by BIG & RICH's John Rich, but the single being released was remixed by producer Mark Hudson, who added Tyler's vocal. Hudson got the idea after noticing a reference to AEROSMITH in the song's lyrics. "Steven is a huge country fan," Hudson says. "He actually turned me on to Kitty Wells, stuff like that. We've had many conversations about the elements of how rock 'n' roll began, and it really did begin with country — folks ...

Much of Little Texas' initial chart success was based on the band's country-pop sound. By contrast, the 21st century edition is hewing closer to its honky-tonk roots. "The biggest revolution overnight was Gretchen (Wilson), John Rich and those guys," Howell said. "(Wilson) made it legal to honky-tonk again." Little Texas expects to release a live album in September and a new studio album early next year.

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Vice President Dick Cheney's pacemaker is working properly and his overall heart condition is stable, according to results from his annual physical Saturday. The 65-year-old Cheney, who has a long history of heart ailments, had an electrocardiogram and high-tech imaging to check on repaired aneurysms on the back of his knees, his spokeswoman said. Doctors also checked the condition of a high-tech pacemaker, known as an implantable cardioverter defibrillator, that was placed in his chest in June 2001. Cheney has had four attacks; the first in 1978, when he was 37, and the fourth on Nov. 22, 2000, after the election that made George W. Bush president. "The vice ...

Key NASA officials who oversee the agency said they don't believe the shuttle is safe for launch, according to a Local 6 News report. E-mails sent to NASA's administrator from the agency's inspector general's office obtained by the Orlando Sentinel said they didn't believe shuttle Discovery should launch without more work to prevent foam insulation from breaking off the external fuel tank. NASA already had a "no go" for flight from the agency's top safety official and chief engineer. However, NASA managers went ahead and gave the "go for launch" for Saturday. Meanwhile, NASA declined Thursday to release documents from a critical safety meeting where managers debated ...

A federal judge in Brooklyn ruled yesterday that the government has wide latitude under immigration law to detain noncitizens on the basis of religion, race or national origin, and to hold them indefinitely without explanation. The ruling came in a class-action lawsuit by Muslim immigrants detained after 9/11, and it dismissed several key claims the detainees had made against the government. But the judge, John Gleeson of United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York, allowed the lawsuit to continue on other claims, mostly that the conditions of confinement were abusive and unconstitutional. Judge Gleeson's decision requires top federal officials, including former ...
