Here is a picture of SpaceShipOne, the first commercial craft cleared by the US FAA for flying to the edge to space. It is a favourite to win the $10M contest to put a reusable craft with three people in a suborbital round-trip. Looks very scifi!
PS: London-based Market Age claims they hold the trademark "Gmail." Now, couldn't Google have found that out before picking the name by, you know, googling for it?
For the first time a majority of Norwegians have defined themselves as non-Christian. In a poll Opinion did for the newspaper Aftenposten, 49 per cent said they were not Christian, while 47 per cent is.
Five years ago, 55 per cent of those polled said they concidered themselves Christian.
However, there is some indication it is more people's definition that has changed, not people's beliefs. The number who believed Jesus' resurrection was an "actual historical event" increased from 38 to 40 per cent in the same period (within the margin of error I would assume, which doesn't prevent religion sociologist Pål Repstad from assuming the numbers show an actual increase).
