Frankie, Johnnie & Luigi Too! is a family-owned Italian restaurant and pizzeria in Dublin, serving not only pizza but pasta, antipasti, and sandwiches.

Upon entering, the first thing I noticed was that the layout of the restaurant. When I opened the door, I looked to my left and saw a man making pizza behind a glass barrier. There were couches in the front of the restaurant for people to sit in while they waited. The wait wasn’t too bad – my family and
I went on a Saturday and we only had to wait ten or fifteen minutes.

Philippine Islands President Gloria Arroyo has declared a "state of calamity" throughout the island nation, which lies in the path of a second major storm in days.

Typhoon Parma is forecast to hit the Philippine's east coast on Saturday, bringing with it sustained winds of nearly 200 kilometers per hour.

Mrs. Arroyo has ordered evacuations from six provinces likely to feel the typhoon's strongest effects. Her declaration of emergency frees up funds to help the government respond to emergencies.

John Whiteside Parsons (born Marvel Whiteside Parsons on October 2, 1914 – died June 17, 1952) was an American rocket propulsion researcher at the California Institute of Technology and co-founder of the Jet Propulsion Laboratory and the Aerojet Corp.. An enthusiastic occultist, he was one of the earliest American devotees of Aleister Crowley, and a leading member of his organisation, Ordo Templi Orientis.

Parsons and the Space Age
While his formal education was limited, Parsons demonstrated tremendous scientific aptitude, particularly in chemistry. His rocket research was some of the earliest in the United States, and his pioneering work in the development of solid fuel and the invention of JATO units for aircraft was of great importance to the start of humanity's space age. The noted engineer Theodore von Kármán, Parsons's friend and benefactor, declared that the work of Parsons and his peers helped usher in the age of space travel. Parsons co-founded the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, commonly referred to as JPL.
