Born on March 9, 1934, Gagarin was a military pilot before being chosen for the first group of cosmonauts in 1960. As a result of his historic flight he became an international hero and legend. Killed when his MIG jet crashed during a training flight in 1968, Gagarin was given a hero's funeral, his [...]

Opinion: Time to raise the speed limit, how does 150 MPH sound?
http://feeds.digg.com/~r/digg/news/popular/~3/P_d8Kf9ujXc/opinion_time_to_raise_the_speed_limit_how_does_150_mph_sound

Nearly every year, cars became more powerful with higher top-end speeds. But then, in the mid-1950s, we hit a plateau. The national speed limit was set at 70 miles per hour, and we've been stuck at that rate ever since. As a result, the automobile has made absolutely no progress as a transportation device in over half a century.
