Battle of the Network Stars - Conrad vs. Kaplan (1976)

wikip:

In the late 1970s, Conrad served as the captain of the NBC team for six editions of Battle of the Network Stars. In the first edition, his race against ABC’s team captain Gabe Kaplan in the final event to settle a dispute regarding a technical foul (raised by CBS’s team captain Telly Savalas) in the earlier co-ed track relay. An infraction by NBC teammates during a baton hand-off had caused NBC to suffer a 2-second penalty, giving the victory to Kaplan’s ABC team. Conrad challenged Kaplan in good sportsmanship to run one last time. The race was held on the same regulatory clay track soon after the disputed relay had been completed. At the sound of the gun, Conrad sprinted to an early lead and led going into the turn with Kaplan close behind. As the pair came out of the turn, Kaplan drew even with Conrad, who was beginning to show his fatigue. As they entered the straight-away, Kaplan began his finishing kick and out-sprinted Conrad to take a commanding lead and crossed the finish line well ahead of a winded Conrad, who was some 20 yards behind.

America. Yes. Fucking America.

Why can’t they still do this? This has got to be on par with the Olympics.

The spectacular structure of Planetary nebula NGC 2818 contains the outer layers of a star that were expelled into interstellar space. The glowing gaseous shrouds in the nebula were shed by the central star after it ran out of fuel to sustain the nuclear reactions in its core. This Hubble image was taken in November 2008 with the Wide Field Planetary Camera 2. The colors in the image represent a range of emissions coming from the clouds of the nebula: red represents nitrogen, green represents hydrogen, and blue represents oxygen.

Also, searching for ‘dance’, ‘typewriter’, ‘robot’ or ‘toy’ anything is like cracking open a big ol’ vat of diagram-porn.
