Last night November 12, 2010 at approximately 11:15, I decided to take a walk to my friend’s neighboring dorm of Roth. On the way I peered over my shoulder, toward Evans, for I thought I heard someone behind me. It was just me worrying about the night. I did, however, see a strange light in the distance. I watched for a moment until I noticed it was moving in what seemed to be my direction. As quick as lightning it zoomed over Evans, a ring of lights around a craft I could not see in the dark night sky. Luckily for me I keep a camera in my backpack, which I quickly used to take a picture. Before I knew it, however, it was gone, as quickly as it appeared. (Mark Attilio)

November's horoscopes have been published in The Beacon

For Discussion: The video Are we alone? made a number of arguments that life would have evolved on other planets, that it would likely be similar to the creatures we know, and that, given life probably began evolving earlier on planets older than the earth, that creatures exist that are somehow greater than we are. What are your reactions about this? Does this make you more likely to believe that aliens are visiting our planet?

You might find reading about the Drake equation interesting. BTW, I looked this up first in Credo reference, but found that the wikipedia entry was better than any of the hits Credo offered...
