Rocket Racing League Organized!

How cool is THIS! The Chief likes it! In the first iteration this of course seems to be atmospheric rocket planes, but inevitably it'll go beyond. Just like aircraft racing in the 20's and 30's spurred aviation development and design, there's no reason why rocket racing can't do the same thing today.

The whole concept and underlying philosophy is positive. Folks, get ready - it's coming! This is from the same guys that posted the Ansari X-prize, that led to the Rutan Scaled Composite's suborbital space flyer, so they know how to make things happen!

DeLay accuses Earle of taking corporate funds

Rep. Tom DeLay said District Attorney Ronnie Earle, who is prosecuting him for trying to involve corporate money in Texas politics, has taken such contributions himself. "It's real interesting he has this crusade against corporate funds. He took corporate funds, and he's taken union funds, for his own re-election. That's against the law," Mr. DeLay told The Washington Times yesterday. A review of Mr. Earle's campaign-finance filings in Texas shows that he has received contributions from the AFL-CIO, including a $250 donation on Aug. 29, 2000. He also has received contributions listed on the disclosure forms only as coming from the name of an incorporated entity, often a law firm.

Maybe Earle should prosecute himself again.

Mr. Earle has said repeatedly that state law bars corporate and union contributions. Attempts to reach Mr. Earle yesterday for comment, including a phone message left on his assistant's voice mail detailing Mr. DeLay's charge, were unsuccessful.

The old telephone tag routine, eh?
