To Boldly Name… With the first space shuttle ready to be unveiled in September 1976, President Ford was asked to approve the craft’s name before meeting with NASA administrator Dr. James Fletcher.  Fans of “Star Trek” had sent NASA hundreds of thousands of letters requesting that the space shuttle be named “Enterprise” after Captain James T. Kirk’s starship. Several of the President’s advisers also noted that the name had a long association with U.S. Navy vessels dating back to the Revolutionary War. President Ford officially signed off on the name “Enterprise” on September 8, 1976. View documents about the naming of the Space Shuttle “Enterprise” from the Presidential Handwriting File at http://www.fordlibrarymuseum.gov/library/document/0047/phw19760908-01.pdf

Uncommon respiratory virus sending hundreds of kids to the ER

"The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says health officials in 10 states have asked for help in deciding whether something unusual and dangerous is going on. Many of the illnesses appear to be caused by enterovirus D68 or EV-D68 — a distant cousin of the polio virus — which causes respiratory symptoms and appears to be worse in children with asthma."

2014: thicker eyebrows, fatter ass, more lipstick, bigger hair, more reading and better politics.

I LOVE Mary, but if the canon is to be followed, then I guess the bright side...

Is that if the child lives, there's a possibility of Johnlock kid!fic canon!

Amirite? But I hope I'm wrong.

If it ends on another cliffhanger, then I might actually hurt someone.
