SEOUL, South Korea — North Korea defiantly carried out a provocative rocket launch Sunday that the U.S., Japan and other nations suspect was a cover for a test of its long-range missile technology. Liftoff took place at 11:30 a.m. (0230GMT) Sunday from the coastal Musudan-ri launch pad in northeastern North Korea, the South Korean government said. In Washington, the State Department also confirmed the launch. The rocket flew over Japan and landed in the Pacific Ocean, the Japanese broadcaster NHK said, citing its government. "Our primary concern is to confirm safety and gather information," Japanese Prime Minister Taro Aso told a news conference at his Tokyo office Sunday. Resisting calls from President Barack Obama, Aso and Hu Jintao of China to call off the launch, North Korea had announced Saturday that preparations were complete to send communications satellite Kwangmyongsong-2 on a multistage rocket bound for the skies over Japan. Tokyo deployed warships and Patriot missile interceptors off its northern coast to shoot down any debris that the North said might fall over the area. U.S. and South Korean warships equipped with missile interceptors also plied the waters between the Korean peninsula and Japan to monitor the launch. Russia, meanwhile, scrambled fighter jets to its Far East in case any debris hits its territory, Russian news reports said. North Korea pushed ahead with the launch despite mounting international pressure to cancel a liftoff Obama warned Friday would be a "provocative" act. South Korea, the U.S. and Japan said earlier in the week they would take North Korea to the U.N. Security Council for an act they say is banned under a 2006 resolution barring Pyongyang from ballistic activity.

*sigh*...another murder suicide Police: 5 children, father found dead in Wash. Apr 4, 10:34 PM EDT GRAHAM, Wash. (AP) — Washington state investigators say five children between 7 and 16 years old have been found dead in a Graham area home and they may have been killed by their father. Pierce County Sheriff's investigators told The News Tribune the children apparently were victims of homicidal violence. Spokesman Ed Troyer says the 35-year-old father was discovered dead Saturday afternoon in neighboring King County. Deputies were called to check on the welfare of the children at a mobile home park after the father's body was discovered. Troyer identified the dead children as four girls and a 7-year-old boy.

then the other news- the beavers that breeched their family dam here on and caused mudslide wrecking 10 homes. (LOL- Im' only laughing because I rarely listen or watch the news, so to have a phone call from Michigan telling me they saw it on CNN was odd!)
Holy cow, what're they going to tow with that thing? Islands?

I find it absolutely staggering but also a little bit depressing that in 2009 there's even such a debate over this issue. Where as I can understand, either through ignorance or lack of education, some peoples attititudes towards homosexuality, I can't see how two people who happen to be gay being married actually effects anyone. What harm is it doing to them? I see those who vote against gay marriage as not being against just that, they are against ANYTHING gay, even homosexuality itself.
In some states it's legal to marry your horse but not your partner, WTF?
