And yes, he will be afraid. "Of course. I always use fear to my advantage, for focus," said Baumgartner, 40, the Austrian-born skydiver best known for gliding 22 miles (35 km) across the English Channel with the help of a 6-foot (2-metre) wing strapped to his back after jumping from 33,000 feet (10,000 metres) in 2003. One aim is to break the 50-year-old record set by Joe Kittinger, who jumped from 102,800 feet (31,333 metres) for the U.S. Air Force in 1960 to mark the highest parachute jump and longest and fastest free fall. Members of Baumgartner's team insist another goal is in the interest is science, including monitoring the effects of supersonic travel on the body and how it reacts to the changes in pressure, temperature, acceleration and deceleration. "The goal is to get him as high as we can, get him back down to Earth safely, and gather all the data we can," said Kittinger, 81, a consultant on the project. Just as Kittinger did, Baumgartner will go up in a balloon, though his pressure suit, capsule and monitoring equipment will be much more advanced. The trip up will last three hours, and during the roughly 21-minute return Baumgartner will only hear Kittinger's voice inside his helmet. "He was my childhood hero," Baumgartner said. (Reporting by Daniel Trotta; Editing by Philip Barbara) http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20100122/od_uk_nm/oukoe_uk_jump_stratosphere_1;_ylt=AmBudXfwOZvShDwTXlm9dV8Z.3QA;_ylu=X3oDMTE2dTY1YmUwBHBvcwMzBHNlYwN5bi1yLWItbGVmdARzbGsDZXYtbWFucGxhbnNs Man hurls shoe at Sudan President Beshir KHARTOUM (AFP) – A Sudanese man hurled his shoe at President Omar al-Beshir on Monday but missed him, witnesses said, adding that the assailant was immediately arrested. <HE WAS A SOLE ATTACKER> http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/20100125/wl_africa_afp/sudanprotestbeshirshoe;_ylt=AnbGvm5yfcgv8LH.B0Zusd6s0NUE;_ylu=X3oDMTNyaDA2bHNkBGFzc2V0A2FmcC8yMDEwMDEyNS9zdWRhbnByb3Rlc3RiZXNoaXJzaG9lBGNjb2RlA21vc3Rwb3B1bGFyBGNwb3MDNwRwb3MDNARwdANob21lX2Nva2UEc2VjA3luX2hlYWRsaW5lX2xpc3QEc2xrA21hbmh1cmxzc2hvZQ-- Scientists create model of monster 'Frankenstorm' LOS ANGELES – Think the recent wild weather that hammered California was bad? Experts are imagining far worse. As torrential rains pelted wildfire-stripped hillsides and flooded highways, a team of scientists hunkered down at the California Institute of Technology to work on a "Frankenstorm" scenario — a mother lode wintry blast that could potentially sock the Golden State. The hypothetical but plausible storm would be similar to the 1861-1862 extreme floods that temporarily moved the state capital from Sacramento to San Francisco and forced the then-governor to attend his inauguration by rowboat. The scenario "is much larger than anything in living memory," said project manager Dale Cox with the U.S. Geological Survey. http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20100124/ap_on_sc/us_sci_frankenstorm_scenario;_ylt=Aoyny.50qCZxYeqAXlPahAas0NUE;_ylu=X3oDMTFlbjV0azZtBHBvcwMxMTUEc2VjA2FjY29yZGlvbl9zY2llbmNlBHNsawNzY2llbnRpc3RzY3I- . . . .
