Smith, Rice lead 7 new football Hall of Famers

NFL greats Jerry Rice(notes) and Emmitt Smith led a class of seven into the Pro Football Hall of Fame on Saturday.

The NFL’s career receiving and rushing leaders were joined in the Hall by John Randle, Russ Grimm, Rickey Jackson, Floyd Little and Dick LeBeau. Little and LeBeau were elected as senior committee nominees.

“I am just honored … to stand up there with greatness,” Rice added before breaking down in tears.

Rice and Smith both made it in their first year of eligibility. They were elected a day before the Super Bowl, a game they each won three times.

“This is almost perfect,” Smith said. “I don’t think even Steven Spielberg could have written a script this nice.”

They will be inducted into the Canton, Ohio shrine on Aug. 7.

Nobody could stop Rice, the league’s top pass catcher and all-time touchdowns leader, when he played for San Francisco, Oakland and Seattle. Rice made 1,549 catches for 22,895 yards, had 14 1,000-yard seasons and scored 208 touchdowns.

Nor could they handle Smith, who rushed for 18,355 yards and 164 touchdowns for Dallas and Arizona. Like Rice, he won an MVP award in the NFL’s championship game.

And no one could deny them immediate entry into the Hall. A nominee needs 80 percent approval from the 44 U.S. media members who vote and they were slam-dunks.

“We were rewarded on this day and the both of us get the chance to do what we want to do,” Smith said.

“It’s just like playing in that big game, this is something you think about, and it is happening. I never thought I would go in …. with this guy here,” Rice added about Smith.

Two other all-time top receivers, Cris Carter and Tim Brown(notes), were not elected. Carter, in his third year of eligibility, stands third in career receptions with 1,101, while Brown, in his first year on the ballot, made 1,094.

Jackson, a do-everything linebacker with a great burst off the line, finished his 15-season career for New Orleans and San Francisco with 128 sacks. A six-time Pro Bowler, Jackson sparked the first turnaround by New Orleans from losers to contenders in the late 1980s. He helped the Saints to their first division title and playoff berth.

Now, a day before the Saints appear in their first Super Bowl against the Indianapolis Colts, Jackson is in the Hall.

Randle was that rare defensive tackle who was a premier pass rusher. An undrafted free agent, Randle had 137 1/2 sacks for Minnesota and Seattle, tied for sixth overall, and led the league with 15 1/2 in 1997. He played in seven Pro Bowls.

Grimm, a member of the Washington Redskins’ famed Hogs offensive line, won three Super Bowls. A guard, he made four Pro Bowls and was selected to the all-decade team of the 1980s.

The two senior committee inductees did not get enough support from the regular panel of media members when they were eligible.

LeBeau, the current defensive coordinator of the Pittsburgh Steelers, is considered one of pro football’s great defensive innovators as a coach. But he was voted in for his outstanding work for Detroit from 1959-72. LeBeau finished with 62 interceptions, second among cornerbacks when he retired.

“I would like to congratulate Dick on his election,” Steelers president Art Rooney II said. “Few men in the history of the NFL have contributed more to the league as a player and coach than Dick LeBeau during his 51 years in the league.”

Little starred for the Denver Broncos in the AFL and NFL, leading the NFL in rushing in 1971 with 1,133 yards and in touchdowns rushing in 1973 with 12. He waited 30 years to get elected

How to make an Origami Sphinx

Instructions

Initial Steps

1. Step 1

   Use a lightweight paper for making origami. Traditional origami paper is colored only on one side, but any paper of any color will do. Computer printer paper works fine.

2. Step 2

   Cut your paper to size. Fold your paper in half diagonally, forming a triangle. Open the paper back up to a square. Fold your paper in half diagonally again, bringing the other two corners together. Open the paper back up.

3. Step 3

   Fold the paper in half to make a rectangle and open it back up. Fold the paper in half the other way and open it back up. Fold two opposite sides of the square inward aligning the edges with the center crease to form a rectangle.

4. Step 4

   Take one corner of the rectangle and fold it to form a triangle, aligning its edge along one long side of the rectangle. Then open it back up and fold the other corner next to it. Next open it back up until you have an X of creases.

5. Step 5

   Put your fingers under the flaps of paper you just finished "X"ing and pull the corners outward until they form a canoe shape. Fold into the canoe shape, aligning the top edges.

6. Step 6

   Take one lower corner of the canoe shape and fold it from the bottom middle of the canoe shape to the wide end point of the top of the canoe shape, forming a small triangle, and crease well. Do the same for the other side.

   More Advanced Steps

7. Step 1

   Go to the other end of your figure and fold the two diagonal creases under to form a triangular shape. Pick up the figure and do a valley fold, folding the entire figure in half down the middle where the two sides of the paper come together, keeping the small folds that you just made on top.

8. Step 2

   Take the short side of the figure and from its long point fold up on it to form another small triangle whose point sticks out about a centimeter beyond the edge of the figure and crease it. Fold it to the opposite side also and crease it and open it back up.

9. Step 3

   Push the end point where you just made the folds up through the middle of the figure along the creases you just made to create an inverse fold. Then push the sides of the figure in to crease.

10. Step 4

    Fold two-thirds of the figure over the end that looks like bunny ears and reverse the fold creasing it on both sides and opening it back up. Go about a third of the way down the figure and make a parallel fold, creasing it both ways and opening it back up.

11. Step 5

    Open up the figure and grasping the right end with your index finger inside of the inverse fold you just made, push the right end toward the left so it folds under the left side along the creases you just made. It will make the neck of the sphinx shorter.

12. Step 6

    Take the small point on top, which is the sphinx's nose, and fold the tip of it sideways in each direction and open it back up. Push in on the middle of it to create its flat nose. Set the figure down and admire your completed sphinx.

Astronauts have discovered water on the moon

On October 9,2009, NASA let a spaceship crash into the Moon to see if water is there. NASA thought the spaceship will be covered with dust. But actually,the spaceship was not covered with dust. NASA discovered that by satelites which connected to Earth.They were so suprised. NASA is still trying to know if there's a problem with the satelite or is that what really happened. They also found water there.
