Airline passengers asked for extra cash for fuel

LONDON (AP) — Airlines have already begun charging for food, drinks, seat assignments and baggage. Now one is demanding that passengers cough up extra cash on board for fuel.

Hundreds of passengers traveling from India to Britain were stranded for six hours in Vienna when their Comtel Air flight stopped for fuel on Tuesday. The charter service asked them to kick in more than 20,000 pounds ($31,000) to fund the rest of the flight to Birmingham, England.

Is the New Physics Here? Atom Smashers Get an Antimatter Surprise
The world's largest atom smasher, designed as a portal to a new view of physics, has produced its first peek at the unexpected: bits of matter that don't mirror the behavior of their antimatter counterparts.

The discovery, if confirmed, could rewrite the known laws of particle physics and help explain why our universe is made mostly of matter and not antimatter.

Scientists at the Large Hadron Collider, the 17-mile (27 km) circular particle accelerator underground near Geneva, Switzerland, have been colliding protons at high speeds to create explosions of energy. From this energy many subatomic particles are produced.

Now researchers at the accelerator's LHCb experiment are reporting that some matter particles produced inside the machine appear to be behaving differently from their antimatter counterparts, which might provide a partial explanation to the mystery of antimatter.

I thought it was a giant hovercraft myself. Would probably be more inclined to go to church if it was inside a giant hover craft tent.

if it is a church, it is kind of formidable. if i were inclined to go to church i would probably think twice about going to this one. it would be kind of cool to see a giant hovercraft come breaking out of it, though

Midget tossing

The Midget Throwing, or Dwarf Tossing, originated in Australia in the 1980's. A bar attraction in which dwarves wearing special padded clothing or Velcro costumes are thrown onto mattresses or at Velcro-coated walls, participants of the contest compete to throw the dwarf the farthest.

Extreme ironing Championships

The Extreme Ironing World Championships started in Leicester, UK in 1997, and is an exciting and dangeous sport where anyone who would like to participate should be ready for ironing a few items of laundry, preferably on a difficult climb of a mountainside, ice or under water.

Worm Charming Championships

Charmers came from all over the world to take part in 30 minutes of muddy madness - banging, tapping and stabbing the ground with pitchforks to entice the worms to the surface.

Happy Mickey Mouse Day!
It's also the Married to a Scorpio day but most importantly it is the push button phone day.

Nude Ant Hill Sitting Competition
There are several nude ant hill sitting competitions. Most of these can be found in Finland. The rules are simple: the person who can sit naked on an ant hill for the longest wins. Sadly, no images.
