John Rich kicked off plane

John Rich kicked off plane. Words spread recently that John Rich got kicked off a Southwest flight from Las Vegas to Nashville on Sunday, December 4 for being too drunk to fly. In response to the report, a spokesman for the former Big & Rich member told E! News, "Did John Rich have a great time with fans in Las Vegas? Yes. Was there an altercation? Absolutely not."

In a previous report, TMZ dished that the winner of "The Celebrity Apprentice" appeared to be intoxicated and got into a verbal argument with other passengers prior to boarding the flight. He allegedly continued to exhibit drunken behavior inside the main cabin. Though so, the 37-year-old was said to be cooperative and calm when asked to get off the plane.

A representative for Southwest Airlines confirmed that such incident did occur, but refused to name the passenger. In a statement released to the press, the rep explained, "Our crew assessed the situation and determined that the passenger was not fit for travel. The decision was based on governing federal aviation (FAA) regulations that our crew must follow."

"The customer was immediately rebooked on a later Southwest flight out of Las Vegas, but chose to make alternative travel arrangements. We have processed a refund for the customer and his travel companion. Our Employees are responsible for the safety and comfort of everyone onboard a flight. If we can mitigate an uncomfortable situation prior to departure, it is our preference to do so and that is what happened in this scenario."

Kepler planet confirmed

Kepler planet confirmed.The newly confirmed planet, Kepler-22b, is about 2.4 times the radius of Earth. Scientists don't yet know if Kepler-22b has a predominantly rocky, gaseous or liquid composition, but its discovery is a step closer to finding Earth-like planets1.
The "habitable zone" of a planetary system refers to the band of orbits where liquid water could exist on a planet’s surface. Kepler has recently discovered more than 1,000 new planet candidates. Ten of these candidates are near-Earth-size and orbit in the habitable zone of their host star. Candidates require follow-up observations to verify they are actual planets.
Source: Nasa

"This is a major milestone on the road to finding Earth's twin," said Douglas Hudgins, Kepler program scientist at NASA Headquarters in Washington.
Kepler-22b is located 600 light-years away. While the planet is larger than Earth, its orbit of 290 days around a sun-like star resembles that of our world. The planet's host star belongs to the same class as our sun, called G-type, although it is slightly smaller and cooler.
Kepler discovers planets and planet candidates by measuring dips in the brightness of more than 150,000 stars to search for planets that cross in front, or "transit," the stars. Kepler requires at least three transits to verify a signal as a planet.

"Fortune smiled upon us with the detection of this planet," said William Borucki, Kepler principal investigator at NASA Ames Research Center at Moffett Field, Calif., who led the team that discovered Kepler-22b. "The first transit was captured just three days after we declared the spacecraft operationally ready. We witnessed the defining third transit over the 2010 holiday season."
