Diaper wearing astronaut arrested

A little something I remembered seeing in an American Psychological Association newsletter in 1999...


Last year a report by NASA's assistant inspector general for inspections, administrative investigations and assessments concluded that NASA has not adequately addressed psychological factors, which "are vitally important in ensuring the overall success of long-duration missions."
The report recommended that NASA enhance the psychological criteria used to select astronauts and incorporate psychological assessments into each astronaut's annual physical exam and pre- and post flight evaluations. It also added that NASA should train astronauts for the stressors experienced during long-duration flights.

This lady made it through NASA astronaut testing, Navy Top Gun testing, you name it. Wow, something has gone very wrong here!

AstroNut Gal a Product of Maryland & DC

Diaper-clad nutbucket Lisa Nowak isn't just proof that even America's astronauts are deranged creeps -- she's also a shining tribute to being born and raised in the DC metropolitan area!

Just five days ago, the Washingtonian published this nice feature about the hometown girl who grew up in Rockville and spent so many happy hours of her childhood at the Smithsonian Air & Space Museum, where she dreamed of being the monster from "Alien." There's also a chilling peek at Nowak's family dynamics. There is nothing more tragic than a child wishing his mom would blow up in space.
Nowak's mission aboard Discovery was NASA's second launch since the Columbia disaster in 2003. Nowak, a mother of three, was watching news coverage of the disaster with her son, Alexander, then 12.

Sitting with Alexander as smoke streamed across the screen, Nowak worried how he would react, but he took her hand and said, "Mom, I still want you to go."

Astronaut charged with kidnap attempt

By MIKE SCHNEIDER
Associated Press Writer


ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) -- Florida prosecutors charged an astronaut Friday with trying to kidnap a romantic rival, but they declined to file an attempted murder charge recommended by police. Lisa Nowak, 43, was formally charged almost a month after she was arrested at an Orlando airport parking lot.

Ex-Astronaut Apologizes to Love Rival

ORLANDO, Fla. -- Lisa Nowak wants the woman she allegedly attacked in a romantic astronaut rivalry to know she's sorry. She also wants to be freed of an ankle bracelet that electronically monitors her movement, and for the media to leave her alone.
Nowak made an emotional statement after court Friday, apologizing to Colleen Shipman, the woman she allegedly attacked after a 1,000-mile drive, and others affected by the case. The two met in court during a tense 6-hour hearing over the bracelet and defense motions to toss her arrest interview with police and the search of her car.

Oh, and could you please toss out her confession and get her a better fit on that ankle bracelet - and, did I tell you that she is really, really sorry?

Meanwhile - that anklet is costing her too much, to which the prosecution says ...
"You're paying a media consultant _ fire the consultant," assistant state attorney Pamela Davis told Nowak.

Last but not least, it is time to clear up this whole business about her diapers, er dirty laundry.

Testimony also addressed whether Nowak wore diapers to avoid stopping on her trip from Houston to Orlando. Astronauts use them on shuttle missions, and that detail has made Nowak a worldwide punchline.
In June, Lykkebak called it "the biggest lie in this preposterous tale," and criticized the media for its circulation.

Of course this couldn't be because your client told the police that she was using them to save on stopping for bathroom breaks? Surely not.

... Orlando police detective William Becton reiterated that he found a garbage bag with three dirty diapers in the former astronaut's BMW. He said Nowak told him she urinated in them on the drive to limit stops ....

Biggest lie - by whom?

Lykkebak has said the diapers were left in the car after a long-ago hurricane evacuation.
Long ago in a hurricane far, far far away ....
Something smells about that answer - probably because it puts soiled diapers and hurricane evacuation in the same sentence.

If driving across the country wearing depends so that you don't have to stop for bathroom breaks in order to save time getting to the home of your ex-boyfriend's new girlfriend so that you can attack her is wrong....
