NASA Completes 52-Year Mission To Find, Kill God

NASA officials celebrate after finally locating and murdering the Supreme Being. "I am ecstatic to tell you all today that we have beheld the awesome visage of the supreme architect of the cosmos, and we have murdered Him," jubilant administrator Charles Bolden said after being drenched with champagne by other celebrating NASA employees. "There have been innumerable setbacks, missteps, and hardships over the past 50 years, but we always stayed true to our ultimate goal and we never gave up. " "We finally got the son of a bitch!

" Bolden continued. According to officials, God was killed this morning on the moon by a highly trained team of seven astronauts. Astronauts prepare the Creator's body for its return to Earth. The Destruction of Sennacherib by Lord George Gordon Byron. The Assyrian came down like the wolf on the fold,And his cohorts were gleaming in purple and gold;And the sheen of their spears was like stars on the sea,When the blue wave rolls nightly on deep Galilee.

The Destruction of Sennacherib by Lord George Gordon Byron

Like the leaves of the forest when summer is green,That host with their banners at sunset were seen:Like the leaves of the forest when autumn hath blown,That host on the morrow lay withered and strown. For the Angel of Death spread his wings on the blast,And breathed in the face of the foe as he passed:And the eyes of the sleepers waxed deadly and chill,And their hearts but once heaved, and for ever grew still!

Reuben Margolin’s Kinetic Wave Sculptures

He makes mind-blowing, moving art based on tiny observations in nature. His collection of waves has the ability to quiet, soothe, and inspire awe in the viewer. Margolin combines math and simple materials (and insanely neat string and pulley systems) to recreate and amplify subtle effects that often go unnoticed in nature, like a tiny ripple or the movement of a caterpillar.

SAFE: Spatial Aggregate Fielding Evaluation

Most events in baseball, such as hitting events, are discrete which makes them easy to tabulate and model probabilistically. The central difficulty with fielding is that we are trying to evaluate players on a continuous playing surface where we must take into account not just whether a successful play was made, but whether a successful play was possible. The much-maligned error statistic is a subjective attempt at discretising this phenomenon: players are assigned an error if the official scorer deems that their unsuccessful play should have been successful. However, tabulating errors isn't a good measure of ability without a corresponding measure that credits a player for making a play that most players wouldn't have.

Do this three times, pile the snowballs atop one another, and you’ve got your basic snowman. (images via: Telegraph UK) Truckers Delight. Wear™ - View All. Marching Band Kicks a Football - Video.
