Jimmy Carter is now the longest-living President in history.
Carter passed George H.W. Bush yesterday, at 94 years and 172 days old — one day older than Bush was when he died last November. The 39th President, had already set the record for living the longest number of years out of office at more than 38 years. He and his wife Rosalynn have been married more than 70 years and are still active.

A fireball was streaking across the Los Angeles sky on Wednesday, so people started thinking it was a meteor or an alien invasion.
No such luck.
It was a film shoot by Red Bull. They dropped a couple of skydivers in wingsuits from a helicopter at 4,000 feet and their suits were fitted with “LED lights and sparking pyrotechnics.”
