If it had just been Crue touring, I would be there dressed in full Victorian ElderGoth finery. But I'm not willing to go to a festival for Nikki Sixx.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Though the moon has many seas, scientists thought it was dry.
They were wrong.
In a study published today in Nature, researchers led by Brown University geologist Alberto Saal found evidence of water molecules in pebbles retrieved by NASA's Apollo missions.
The findings point to the existence of water deep beneath the moon's surface, transforming scientific understanding of our nearest neighbor's formation and, perhaps, our own. There may also be a more immediately practical application.
"Is there water there? That's important for lunar missions. People could get the water. They could use the hydrogen for energy," said Saal.
...
With so little reason to believe in native lunar water, said Saal, it took three years to secure the minimal funding necessary to take another look at the Apollo pebbles, gathered between 1969 and 1972.

When did the terms "in the closet" and "out of the closet" enter usage?
(Am listening to "Make Up" from Lou Reed's Transformer album.)

There's this custody case that may hinge on whether Satanism is a religion or not.
In Satanist's custody battle, law may play devil's advocate
"Satanism is the world's first carnal religion," said Peter Gilmore, high priest of the Manhattan-based organization founded four decades ago. "Satanists are thus atheists—not devil worshipers—and we see Satan as being a symbol of pride, liberty and individualism, not a deity."
Meyer embraced the Church of Satan when an ex-girlfriend introduced him to the "The Satanic Bible" shortly after his second divorce about two years ago. The book, written by the Church of Satan's founder, Anton LaVey, spoke to Meyer more than any scripture ever had. It proclaimed no God, no heaven and no hell. It said Satanism had nothing to do with the devil.
Then why do you call it that?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Well, first recorded in, which means might've been around in verbal usage somewhat earlier, yadda yadda etc.
