The B-52's on the flight line of Barksdale Air Force Base might have some company in the coming days -- the space shuttle Discovery. The shuttle will be flown from California to Florida atop a modified Boeing 747. Barksdale is a possible location for the aircraft to stop for refueling. A Barksdale spokeswoman says it will likely be several more days before they know for sure if the shuttle will make a stop there. A NASA spokeswoman says it is hard to predict exactly where the refueling stops will happen because of changing weather conditions that could force alternate flight paths back to Florida. Thunderstorms in Florida Tuesday morning forced NASA to divert the shuttle to California for landing. The shuttle Atlantis was the last shuttle that Barksdale hosted during a refueling stop in March 2001. In April 1982, nearly 100,000 people gathered at Barksdale to see the space shuttle Columbia during a refueling stop. In 2003, Barksdale served as a collection site for debris from the shuttle Columbia after it broke apart over east Texas and parts of northwest Louisiana. NASA says Discovery will likely be flown back to Florida in a window between Saturday and next Tuesday. The cost of the piggyback flight is estimated to be $230,000, a NASA spokeswoman said.

Once committed to fight, Cut. Everything else is secondary. Cut. That is your duty, your purpose, your hunger. There is no rule more important, no commitment that overrides that one. Cut. The lines are a portrayal of the dance. Cut from the void, not from bewilderment. Cut the enemy as quickly and directly as possible. Cut with certainty. Cut decisively, resoultely. Cut into his strength. Flow through the gaps in his guard. Cut him. Cut him down utterly. Don't allow him a breath. Crush him. Cut him without mercy to the depth of his spirit. It is the balance to life: death. It is the dance with death. It is the law a war wizard lives by, or he dies.
