U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon and many other international leaders have condemned North Korea's launch of a long-range missile, even though the test was a failure.  The rocket fell into the sea about one minute after liftoff. North Korea's official news agency acknowledged the missile broke apart, preventing its cargo - described as a weather satellite - from reaching Earth orbit. 

Comment....First, I didn't know the missile fell into the ocean...So much for Chinese technology and scaring the crap out of people around the world...This morning I published a story about something falling in a lake in Connecticut. Actually, I was just being my wise acre self...In some way, just maybe it could have happened....It would have been neat if it did...I like these kinds of odd stories as you must know by now..Just because this Missile failed doesn't mean they won't try again...Stay tuned...
