Humber College to International Space Station: Do you copy?
Four community college students from Toronto contacted the space station through a hand-built apparatus, making them the first college-level students in the world to do so. It took them more than a year and a half to build the transceiver with many setbacks along the way, but in the end, the successful contact was so overwhelming that one of the students broke down and cried.
A number of the campus students spoke with U.S. astronaut Sandra Magnus for about ten minutes while she hurtled through space at 27,000 kilometres per hour.
The students' professor called his students' accomplishment the highlight of his career.
In a strange coincidence, I have a personal connection to this story. I happen to have attended Humber College when I was a youth. It's a small world, isn't it? Even when you're talking to someone out in space.
The Story.

Q & A's from around the web
Where can i get a PhD online for free?
One of those dodgy ones where you put your name down and get a PhD for nothing..I want to be a doctor.
People are well aware of this buddy, and do a HUGE back-round check.
A back-round check??? You can spot a phony doctor by checking their ass? Most doctors put their degree on a wall.
