My Kodak digital camera has developed a crack in the battery compartment
door.  What glue can I use to stick the thing back together before it
shatters?  The plastic doesn't feel like sytrene; I have no idea what it
might be but it certainly feels familiar.

Thanks.

I would use model-quality (not hardware store quality) thin CA,

A friend of mine had a calendar that showed the lunar phase each day.
She has no idea where it came from, and, for some reason, didn't
understand that another could be located if we knew who produced it.
Can anyone lead  me to this product for 2010?

Thanks.

If they want a hard copy the Royal Astronomical Society of Canada (RASC) puts
out a calendar which shows the phases and the libration of the Moon for each
day. The 2010 one might be hard to get at this late date.
Astronomy magazines like Sky and Telescope have a lunar phase calendar as part
of their monthly sky section.

A farmer stopped by the local mechanic shop to have his truck fixed. They
couldn't do it while he waited, so he said he didn't live far and would just
walk home.
On the way he stopped at the hardware store and bought a bucket and a gallon of
paint. He then stopped by the feed store and picked up a couple of chickens and
a goose. However, struggling outside the store he now had a problem - how to
carry his entire purchases home.
While he was scratching his head he was approached by a little old lady who told
him she was lost. She asked, "Can you tell me how to get to 1603 Mockingbird
Lane ?"
The farmer said, "Well, as a matter of fact, my farm is very close to that
house. I would walk you there, but I can't carry this lot." The old lady
suggested, "Why don't you put the can of paint in the bucket. Carry the bucket
in one hand, put a chicken under each arm and carry the goose in your other
hand?" "Why, thank you very much, he said, and proceeded to walk the old girl
home.
On the way he says, "Let's take a short cut and go down this alley.. We'll be
there in no time." The little old lady looked him over cautiously, then said, "I
am a lonely widow without a husband to defend me. How do I know that when we get
in the alley you won't hold me up against the wall, pull up my skirt, and have
your way with me?"
The farmer said, "Holy smokes lady! I'm carrying a bucket, a gallon of paint,
two chickens and a goose. How in the world could I possibly hold you up against
the wall and do that?"
The old lady replied, "Set the goose down, cover him with the bucket, put the
paint on top of the bucket, and I'll hold the chickens...."

"I'm incredibly proud of all the hard work of the men and women of the 4th Space
Launch Squadron team in preparing for this Atlas V mission," said Lt. Col. Brady
Hauboldt, 4th Space Launch Squadron commander. "We've worked side-by side with
United Launch Alliance and the entire 30th Space Wing to pull this campaign
together over the last few months and we are now 'GO' for launch. We're all
excited to have the opportunity to launch our newest Atlas V and demonstrate
Team Vandenberg's continued contributions to space power."

The rocket will carry a national security payload for the National
Reconnaissance Office.
