Poor Kim Davis. Not only did the anti-gay marriage crusader go to jail in defense of what she believes to be a fight for religious liberty (she might want to bone up on her James Madison), but now she’s being attacked by one of the most vile pseudo-religious organizations ever to spawn.

The Westboro Baptist “Church.”

Indeed.

The gaggle of spiteful hatemongers flocked to the Kentucky clerk’s polarizing story like starving, demented geese on a cheese nip. Yet did the douchey injustice warriors rush to Kim Davis’ side with awful multi-hued signs in hand to take up the fallen sister’s cause?

Nope. Westboro virtually bludgeoned her with them. Because she was divorced and remarried.

Why didn’t anyone else think of that? An interesting hypothesis, bomb-throwing idiots.

Right, she’s not actually married now, because her divorce is ‘illegitimate’ in the eyes of God. And she must leave her man-who-is-not-her-husband. Got it.

And then, like the Columbos they are, they followed the breadcrumbs to why there is same sex marriage to begin with.

A blog called FreakOutNation was one of the first to pick up on Westboro’s tirade.

Here is how people are reacting:

Well here's cognitive dissonance at its finest – Westboro Baptist Church to Protest AGAINST Kim Davis… Buying a powerball ticket

Sometimes, politics make strange bedfellows. But in this case, some of the bedfellows have a screw loose.

New York, NY – Harold Nositall, 42, claims to possess a new form of disease that physicians are scrambling to explain. The New York native, known to all his friends to have gluten sensitivity, was shocked to discover new findings today by Dr. Peter Gibson of Monash University in Australia.

In a startling turn of events, Mr. Nositall discovered that the condition he claims to have suffered from for “as long as he can remember” actually has little basis in scientific evidence.

However, this is where a new disease has emerged. Mr. Nositall has now discovered that he is actually insensitive to scientific evidence allowing, in his view, his gluten sensitivity to remain.

Needless to say, this has stunned physicians. Dr. Scimed, a noted gastroenterologist at Harvard University, was shocked to learn a patient’s beliefs could persist despite evidence to the contrary. “I’ve heard of this once or twice, but I never imagined it could be real. This case has rocked my faith in humanity to its core.”

While this story is still breaking, physicians across the nation are bracing themselves for a possible outbreak of evidence insensitivity. Shortly after speaking with Gomerblog, Dr. Scimed retreated to this office to sob silently with the shades down and the door locked. Mr. Nositall was last seen buying gluten-free bread while considering grabbing a gluten-free beer on the way home.

Existem várias vinganças diabólicas que as mulheres fazem quando descobrem que estão sendo traídas. Venho aqui contribuir com mais uma ideia de vingança, caso você esteja desconfiada que está sendo chifrada, a ideia é ótima, veja:

A volcano is a lava-filled boil on the surface of the Earth, just waiting to build up enough pressure to spew out ash and lava. A nuclear bomb is an explosive, man-made weapon designed for destruction and chaos. It disintegrates everything in its local vicinity and irradiates everything in its range after that. But what happens when you combine one of man's most destructive creations with one of nature's?

Uh... nothing actually. This is a nit-picking technicality, but dropping a bomb (even a nuclear bomb) into a bubbling cauldron of magma would be very anticlimactic. The bomb would melt without starting a nuclear reaction.

A nuclear bomb is made of explosives and a radioactive core (for example, plutonium). To ignite a devastating explosion, the explosives all need to detonate under careful timing to create enough energy to start a nuclear reaction in the core. Once the chain reaction starts, there's no stopping it. However, if a nuclear bomb was plonked into a chamber of magma, it would melt – shell, radioactive core and all. 

In order to start this essential reaction, and create a catastrophic explosion, the bomb would need to be detonated above the volcano mouth, or magically transported into the magma chamber's center. 

^{Example of a stratovolcano. Mayon Volcano in Legazpi, Philippines. suronin/Shutterstock.}

The less explosive of these two options is detonating the nuke above the mouth of the volcano. If the volcano is a stratovolcano (like a cone), then the nuclear bomb might do a little cosmetic surgery on the tip of the volcano, but probably wouldn't ignite an eruption. The blast radius of the bomb is too small to reach the pressurized chamber of magma that sets off an explosion. 

The bomb, on its own, would produce a fireball that would incinerate everything in its near vicinity. It is also responsible for forming the signature mushroom cloud. Further away from this, there would be a high-pressure air blast that would knock down concrete buildings. Flooding out further than this is the radiation, and anyone at this range would suffer a lethal dose of radiation. Even further out still is the thermal radiation, where people suffer third degree burns (which extend through the layers of the skin).

Fat Man – the bomb that was infamously launched into Nagasaki during WWII – has a fireball radius of 200 meters (660 feet). Compare this to a volcano of moderate height, Mount St. Helens, for example, which is 2,550 meters (8,370 feet) after its last eruption. Fat Man would only create a chip in the top of this volcano.  

The Tsar Bomba – the largest bomb ever tested by Russia – would have a much bigger structural effect. This nuclear bomb had a fireball radius of 3,000 meters (10,000 feet) and would significantly reduce the height of Mount St. Helens.

There could be an eruption if magma is already in the vent, near the mouth of the volcano, and only needs a small amount of pressure to trigger an eruption. But the real destruction happens when the bomb is suddenly transported into the magma chamber, between one to 10 kilometers (0.6 to 6.2 miles) underground. 

The bomb would be hot enough to vaporize the magma and rock within the chamber after it's all been irradiated. The magma is in a semi-solid, semi-liquid state, but the initial flash from the bomb would boil this quickly.

"It would heat it up so quickly that it would turn into a vapor, so what you'd get is an enormous vapor cavity," Dr. Robin Andrews, a volcanologist from the University of Otago, New Zealand, told IFLScience. "Like when you shake up a bottle of Coke but it's just one massive bubble instead of loads of little bubbles."

The bomb would shower the local magma, rock and dirt with radioactive particles while a tremendous amount of pressure is being created in the chamber very quickly. There's only one place for this magma, rock and pressure to go: Out. 

Some of the erupting material will be lava, but that isn't the dangerous bit. The deadliness comes from the plumes of ash. For example, the Icelandic volcano Eyjafjallajökull virtually brought global air travel to a standstill with plumes of fine dust. In this case, the dust traveled all the way to Italy, Russia and towards the East Coast of America. In our nuclear bomb example, this dust would also be radioactive. And the power of the chain reaction in the bomb would push more ash into the environment for a longer period of time, causing long-term contamination hazards.

But what would happen if Tsar Bomba was set off in the chamber of the world's most famous supervolcano: the Yellowstone supervolcano? This supervolcano has no conical mountain over it signaling its existence. Instead, it's an enormous bubble of magma below the surface of the park. The eruptive power of this volcano would dwarf the explosive power of the bomb. The bomb would set off a supervolcano eruption with no problem, but equally just drilling into the chamber would do the trick. Andrews postulated to IFLScience about the global catastrophe that would follow the detonation of a nuclear bomb in Yellowstone.

"If you buried [a nuke] in Yellowstone, deep enough and it was powerful enough to crack that magma chamber open ... you'll just cause an extinction event. That's when the nuke wouldn't be the problem," commented Andrews. The ruinous power of the volcano would dominate the comparatively puny power of the bomb. 

The lava from this supervolcanic eruption would likely be contained within the confines of the park, however the lava isn't humanity's biggest problem. It's the dust that is blown into the atmosphere. Plumes of cold ash would spew out from the ground for many hundreds of kilometers around. It would ruin crops and air traffic, resulting in isolation, health problems from the dust and food shortages. On top of this, the dust would be radioactive.

Were Tsar bomba to explode in Yellowstone, then the closest you could be to the blast waves before you sustained an injury is around 160 kilometers (100 miles). This radius isn't the apocalyptic destruction that one might expect. However, like Eyjafjallajökull, it's the clouds of dust that could be swept all across America that would do the real damage.

LOUISVILLE, KY—At first glance, high school senior Lucas Faber, 18, seems like any ordinary gay teen. He's a member of his school's swing choir, enjoys shopping at the mall, and has sex with other males his age. But lately, a growing worry has begun to plague this young gay man. A gnawing feeling that, deep down, he may be a fundamentalist, right-wing Christian.

"I don't know what's happening to me," Faber admitted to reporters Monday. "It's like I get these weird urges sometimes, and suddenly I'm tempted to go behind my friends' backs and attend a megachurch service, or censor books in the school library in some way. Even just the thought of organizing a CD-burning turns me on."

Added Faber, "I feel so confused."

The openly gay teen, who came out to his parents at age 14 and has had a steady boyfriend for the past seven months, said he first began to suspect he might be different last year, when he started feeling an odd stirring within himself every time he passed a church. The more conservative the church, Faber claimed, the stronger his desire was to enter it.

"It's like I don't even know who I am anymore," the frightened teenager said. "Keeping this secret obsession with radical right-wing dogma hidden away from my parents, teachers, and schoolmates is tearing me apart."

According to Faber, his first experience with evangelical Christianity was not all that different from other gays his age.

"Sure, I looked at the Book of Leviticus once or twice—everybody has," Faber said. "We all experiment a little bit with that stuff when we're growing up. But I was just a kid. I didn't think it meant anything."

Faber's instinct was to deny these early emotions. But recently, the Louisville teen admitted, the feelings have grown stronger, making him wonder more and more what life as a born-again right-wing fundamentalist would be like.

"The other week, I was this close to picketing in front of an abortion clinic," the mortified teenager said, his eyes welling up with tears. "I know it's wrong, but I wanted so badly to do it anyway. I even made one of those signs with photos of dead fetuses and hid it in my closet. I felt so ashamed, yet, at the same time, it was all strangely titillating."

Faber's parents, although concerned, said they're convinced their otherwise typical gay son is merely going through a conservative Christian phase.

"I caught him watching The 700 Club once when he thought he was alone in the house, and last week, I found some paperbacks from the Left Behind series hidden in his sock drawer," his mother, Eileen Faber, said. "I'm sure he'll grow out of it, but even if he doesn't, I will love and accept my son no matter what."

Faber's father was far less tolerant in his comments.

"No son of mine is going to try to get intelligent design into school textbooks," Geoffrey Faber said. "And I absolutely refuse to pay his tuition if he decides to go to one of those colleges like Oral Roberts University where they're just going to fill his head with a lot of crazy conservative ideas."

He added, "I just want my normal gay son back."

Quark is an American science fiction situation comedy starring Richard Benjamin broadcast on NBC.^[1] The pilot first aired on May 7, 1977, and the series followed as a mid-season replacement in February 1978. The series was cancelled in April 1978. Quark was created by Buck Henry, co-creator of the spy spoof Get Smart.^[1]

The show was set on a United Galaxy Sanitation Patrol Cruiser, an interstellar garbage scow operating out of United Galaxies Space Station Perma One in the year 2226. Adam Quark, the main character, works to clean up trash in space by collecting "space baggies" with his trusted and highly unusual crew.

In its short run, Quark satirized such science fiction as Star Wars, 2001: A Space Odyssey and Flash Gordon.^[1] Three of the episodes were literal satires of Star Trek episodes.^{[citation needed]}

The series won one Emmy Award nomination, for costume designer Grady Hunt's work in the episode "All the Emperor's Quasi-Norms, Part 2".^{[citation needed]}

The complete series was released on DVD on October 14, 2008.^[1]

Characters[edit]

• Adam Quark (Richard Benjamin) is a Commander who longs for a glamorous, important assignment and ends up collecting trash instead. He is skilled and competent, but extraordinarily unlucky.
• Betty I and Betty II (aka The Bettys) (Cyb and Patricia Barnstable) are the navigators and pilots of the ship. They are completely identical, with identical red-hot passions for Quark. One of them is a clone of the other, but each claims the other one is the clone. They have a tendency to speak in perfect unison and have exactly the same thought at exactly the same time. Quark, when describing his crew, explains that he is in love with Betty, but he's not sure which one of the Bettys he's in love with—this no doubt is the reason for the refusal of the clone to identify herself.
• Gene/Jean (Tim Thomerson) is a "transmute", a humanoid being with a complete set of both male and female chromosomes. He/she serves as the ship's engineer. The gender confusion manifests in a split personality — when Gene's macho male side is in control, he is gung-ho, angry and violent with a pathological hatred of the Klingon-like "Gorgons", while the much more mild-mannered Jean personality is stereotypically feminine and demure, pacifistic and a bit of a coward. He/she will frequently switch personalities with no warning.
• Ficus Pandorata (Richard Kelton) is Quark's Spock-like science officer and is a "Vegeton", a member of a race of sentient plant life (Ficus pandorata or pandurata is better known as Ficus lyrata, the fiddle-leaf fig). He is of completely human appearance although he tends to shrivel up when he gets dehydrated. While he is extremely intelligent, observant and always calmly rational, he is incapable of any sort of human emotion, including both fear and tact. He frequently finds the behavior of the rest of the crew difficult to understand, his curiosity leading him to have philosophical debates about the human condition with Quark, usually at the most inopportune moments. Actor Richard Kelton died of accidental carbon monoxide poisoning on November 27, 1978, only seven months after the series was cancelled.
• Andy (Bobby Porter) is a not-at-all-human-looking robot, made from spare parts, with a cowardly and neurotic personality.
• Otto Bob Palindrome (Conrad Janis) is in charge of Perma One, and gives Commander Quark his assignments. He is a stereotypical bureaucrat who gives new definition to the word "petty" — a nightmare tyrant to his underlings and a quivering toady towards his superiors. Palindrome seems to take a special delight in making Quark's life miserable, although deep down he does seem to have a certain well-hidden affection for Adam. His first name, "Otto", is a palindrome, as is his middle name, "Bob."
• Dink is a diminutive and very hairy alien aide to Palindrome who resembles a curly blond version of Cousin Itt. His voice is a xylophone-like electronic warble. He often provides a foil for Palindrome's concerns about his job and about Quark, both of whom he comes to for dating advice. There is another member of his species on Perma 1 called either Doot or Doop whose masses of long hair resemble brown and red wool.
• The Head (Alan Caillou) is the being to whom Palindrome answers. He is usually seen as a disembodied head with an enormous cranium. He is detached from day-to-day events, has a low tolerance for failure, and a tendency to come up with bizarre tasks for Quark to accomplish — usually at the worst possible time. His trademark sign-off: "The galaxy, ad infinitum!"
• Interface (Misty Rowe) A four-armed alien woman who functioned as an operator for all interstellar calls. The perfect example of a communications bureaucrat, she is more concerned about correct charges for lasergrams than about saving the Galaxy. Appeared only in the pilot but is mentioned in at least one later episode.
• Ergo A multi-eyed little blob that was Quark's pet, paralleling Pinback and the Alien from the movie Dark Star. In the pilot, the colorless and translucent Ergo seemed intent on killing Quark, but in the final episode when he appeared again he was much more subdued and pea soup green in color.

Episodes[edit]

• "Pilot" (May 7, 1977): A deep space phenomenon threatens to destroy the galaxy, and Quark's ship is the only one in the area. Palindrome and The Head instruct Quark to go on a suicide mission to save their civilization, but he's so far away they can only contact him by telegram. The two of them argue over telegram costs and spend most of the episode trying to reduce the number of words in the message so as to keep the cost down. Meanwhile Quark and company accidentally save the day anyway. Ficus was not a part of the cast in this episode, and the "science guy" role was held by Dr. O.B. Mudd, a crotchety one-eyed old man played by Douglas Fowley. It is mentioned that Mudd and Quark built Andy together. Mudd never appeared or was mentioned again in the series, and no explanation was given for his departure from the show, other than a gag about transferring. The Barnstable twins are credited with the last name "Barnett" in the pilot.^[2]
• "May the Source Be with You" (February 2, 1978): Perma One is in a state of emergency, as the Gorgons have created the ultimate weapon to defeat the United Galaxy. Palindrome gives Quark the secret weapon, "The Source" (voiced by Hans Conreid). Quark must believe completely in the Source in order to defeat the Gorgons. In the Spanish-language version the scene where the Bettys compare Quark to a god was removed so as not to offend Catholic viewers.^{[citation needed]}
• "The Old and the Beautiful" (March 3, 1978): Expecting his usual garbage hauling assignment, Quark is excited to hear that the Head has authorized an "extended romantic interlude" with Princess Carna of Kamamor (Barbara Rhoades). Troubles ensue when the crew encounters a stray space baggy carrying a virus which ages Quark two years for every hour.
• "The Good, the Bad and the Ficus" (March 10, 1978): While on a routine mission, the ship is accidentally pulled into a black hole, which splits the crew into good and evil counterparts. The exception is Ficus, who remains the same because "there are no good or evil plants, there are just plants", leading both sets of crew members to scream at him in their usual exasperation. After Quark confronts and defeats his evil self on a nearby asteroid, he sends the evil crew back through the black hole. As the evil crew is being sent back we hear the evil Adam Quark say "Keep your deflectors up, do-gooder! You haven't seen the last of this face!"
• "Goodbye Polumbus" (March 17, 1978): Quark and his crew are sent on a suicide mission to Polumbus to discover why no one has returned alive. Quark and his crew fall prey to their fantasies as part of a fiendish plot by the dreaded Gorgons to drain the minds of the United Galaxy's most brilliant scientists. Quark encounters a beautiful dream girl, Ficus encounters a teacher, the Bettys encounter dancing clones of Quark, and Gene/Jean encounters his favorite comic book character "Zoltar the Magnificent". In order to save his crew, Quark must destroy the obelisk and free the shape-shifting "Clay People" it enslaved. The episode's title is spoof of the film Goodbye, Columbus, in which Benjamin played the lead.
• "All the Emperor's Quasi-Norms, Part 1" (March 24, 1978): While on a routine mission, Quark and his crew are captured by Zorgon the Malevolent (played by Ross Martin), the Most Vicious Gorgon Space Pirate and Half-Brother to the High Gorgon Himself. Zorgon tries to learn from Quark where to find "It"—which represents a problem as Quark has no idea what "It" is. Meanwhile, Zorgon's daughter, Princess Libido (played by Joan Van Ark), has fallen in love with Ficus. Ficus agrees to a meeting with Princess Libido in hopes of letting her down gently because, as he explains to her, "Where I come from, we don't kiss. We pollinate." This line of reasoning fails to dissuade her. The next scene finds both of them lying on the floor on their backs, sticking their arms and legs up in the air, and saying "bee bee bee bee" over and over again, increasing in rapidity and pitch in anticipation of the arrival of the bee. Andy and Gene/Jean escape and disguise themselves as Gorgon scientists and Gene/Jean is asked to give a lecture on "It". The episode cliffhanger has Quark horrified to realize that the location for "It" that he gave as a bluff has turned out to be absolutely correct.
• "All the Emperor's Quasi-Norms, Part 2" (March 31, 1978): Ficus sacrifices himself and marries Princess Libido to save the crew. Gene/Jean manages to impress the Gorgon scientists with his lecture, and he and Andy escape. Quark and the Bettys are sent down to the planet to be eaten by a Lizigoth, but are saved by the Baron of The Forest People. With the Baron's help, Quark locates "It", which turns out to be a small stone on a necklace. Subsequent events (a door being opened, a disintegration ray deflecting off the stone) lead Quark to believe he is invincible when in fact "It" is nothing more than a powerless rock. Quark returns to Zorgon's ship, survives a struggle with Zorgon's monster champion, and leaves the planet with his crew after Zorgon accidentally shoots Libido, freeing Ficus from his obligation to her. Unfortunately, when Quark tries to report on what happened, Palindrome has absolutely no interest. His assistant, Dink, however, is fascinated by the story.
• "Vanessa 38-24-36" (April 7, 1978): For "Holiday Number 11", Palindrome gives Quark a new ship's computer, named Vanessa, who will have complete control over the ship. Vanessa tries to destroy Quark and his crew to prove her superiority. Quark is able to disable Vanessa and throw her down the garbage hatch. In the last scene we see Vanessa drifting through space and singing Born Free.

The Galaxy Quest crew has found a new home. 

Amazon Studios is developing a series based on the beloved 1999 cult sci-fi hit, EW has learned exclusively. 

The streaming outlet is partnering with producer Paramount Television on the project. Last April, media outlets reported that Paramount was shopping a Galaxy Quest title to prospective buyers.

Unlike many high-concept movies, the story behind Galaxy Quest seems as suitable for a TV series as it was for a theatrical film. The original premise: The cast of a cheesy-yet-endearing Star Trek-like series find themselves abducted and forced to run a real starship by a race of embattled aliens that mistook their show for a documentary. 

The show’s development is at an early stage. It’s not clear if members of the film’s cast will be sought for the show, or if the series will be a complete reboot. The film had some major (and tough to get) names among the NSEA Protector crew—including Sigourney Weaver, Tim Allen, Alan Rickman and Sam Rockwell. 

Behind the camera, however, the crew is very much the same. The film’s co-writer Robert Gordon will pen the script and executive produce the pilot. The film’s director Dean Parisot will direct and executive produce. And executive producers Mark Johnson and Melissa Bernstein are on board as well. (You might say they never gave up, never surrendered). 

If Galaxy Quest is officially greenlit to pilot and then to series, the project will be the latest movie-to-TV adaption to hit the small screen. Next season there’s CBS’ Rush Hour and Limitless, and Fox’s Minority Report, to name but a few in the pipeline. 

Paramount and Amazon Studios had no comment.
