Randolph WI (Strutts News Services) –  All orbits decay over time, which means that satellites can fall, and France’s  Maison de L’orbite Space Station is no exception.

The experimental prototype, built in the early 1970′s and launched last April, officially brought France into the Space Age with little fanfare.  Presently orbiting at 500 feet, its orbit is decaying at the rate of 2.7 inches per day, and is expected to return to earth sometime in 2018.

The Wicked Witch of the East should be very concerned and seriously consider moving to Kansas – maybe even hide out on The Overnight Open Thread.

Christine O’Donnell to speak at Iowa Tea party rally

Three time Delaware Senate race loser, Christine O’Donnell, is back! When she’s not railing at masturbation or taking drunken pictures, she continues her quest for political significance. She is scheduled to speak at an Iowa Tea Party rally featuring Sarah Palin who will make a major announcement.

Tea party-backed activist Christine O’Donnell will take the stage at Saturday’s tea party rally in Indianola shortly before Sarah Palin, an organizer told The Des Moines Register today.

O’Donnell, author of the book “Troublemaker: Let’s Do What It Takes to Make America Great Again,” lost a bid for a U.S. Senate seat in Delaware last fall.

Her race caught national attention after a video aired on the Internet of O’Donnell in the 1990s saying she once dabbled in witchcraft. To counter the criticism about the clip, O’Donnell ran a campaign advertisement in which she declared “I’m not a witch. I’m nothing you’ve heard. I’m you.” She later called the ad a mistake.

Hey, at least she’s not a witch! No word yet if Sharon Angle will attend.
