Tonight's
the night you've been waiting for: the premiere
opening of the annual Lincoln Jaycees Haunted
House. Earlier this week Shelley Hackett,
chairman of the board for the Jaycees, was at 325
S. Chicago working to add the finishing
touches to what promises to be the best haunted
house yet.

NASA shows
several tiny
satellites
shortly
after launch,
photographed
by an
Expedition
33 crew
member on
the
International
Space
Station. The
satellites
were
released
Thursday outside the Kibo
laboratory
using a
Small
Satellite
Orbital
Deployer
attached to
the Japanese
module's
robotic arm. Japan
Aerospace
Exploration
Agency
astronaut
Aki Hoshide,
flight
engineer,
set up the
satellite
deployment
gear inside
the lab and
placed it in
the Kibo
airlock. The
Japanese
robotic arm
then
grappled the
deployment
system and
its
satellites
from the
airlock for
deployment.
Earth's
horizon and
the
blackness of
space
provide the
backdrop for
the scene.
