Storms Delay U S Russia Shuttle Mission To Dock
Thunderstorms forced NASA to postpone Atlantis liftoff for a second day, delaying the first U S joint mission with a Russian spacecraft in 20 years. Mission officials planned another attempt Tuesday as bad weather lingers. Norman Thagard extended his stay aboard Mir, a record run since mid March, with fuel pumps used and costs totaling about $900000 in fuel and overtime. Lightning struck the pad but no damage due to protection systems amid intense rain.

Lenin statue sparks protest in Seattle's Fremont district
An 18 foot 8 ton bronze Lenin statue imported from Slovakia has been targeted by egging and urination in Seattle. Petitions call for removal while supporters call it a world class sculpture. The piece traveled from Slovakia after being found in a Poprad dump and bought by Lew Carpenter before ending up in Issaquah and then Bevis's foundry for restoration.
