...Marsha Ivins, the veteran astronaut who will use the shuttle's robotic arm to lift the 28-foot Destiny module from the shuttle's payload bay and move it into position on the space-station. Ivins will have only about two inches of clearance as she lifts the silver cylinder from its berth, then she has to rotate it, flip it over 180 degrees and put it in its place.

In an era when "keeping it real" is the mantra for every studio...
...President dies twice, the first time when taking leave of the White House, with its massive power and all its trappings--the marble splendor, the world-class chefs, the Navy stewards bringing your Diet Coke on a silver tray. A temperature-perfect limo waits at the door. You have intersection control. Barbra Streisand croons just...
