parody of those self-indulgent picture a day videos

Very clever as a parody of a reasonably recent trend from the "look at me" brigade

new H - O alloy

http://www.newscientist.com/article.ns?id=dn10391

If you think we know all there is to know about water, think again. Scientists claim they have created a totally new alloy of hydrogen and oxygen molecules by splitting water.

It takes high-energy X-rays and an extremely high pressure, but the end result is a solid mixture of H2 and 02 that has never been identified before, they say. The discovery could change our understanding of the complex chemistry of water.

The new alloy is "a highly energetic material", says Wendy Mao at Los Alamos National Laboratory, US, who led the research. "It may help us find a way of storing energy."

This person probably had to sell their Star Wars figurine collection to finance the project.

A restaurant with nothing on the menu

At last, the ultimate restaurant for gourmet posers. A restaurant that serves nothing.

trampoline fun

Trampolining must rival the jet ski as the most pointless and self-obsessed recreation. But hey, people can get good at it.

But of course, we can't study maths cos when will we ever use that...

Your tax dollars at work

Students at Southampton University will spend three years studying tie-on pockets, worn by women under petticoats or aprons from the late 17th century.

Cost to the taxpayer? 140,000 pounds sterling.

How can you put a price on knowledge?

Oh no, human bodies.

Kids go to museum. See (shock, horror) naked artworks. What to do? Complain to the school about  the teacher of course!!  And of course, she was sacked.

Sydney Mcgee, who has taught art for 28 years, was first reprimanded, and then relieved of her duties at Fisher Elementary School, Friday, after the school board voted not to renew her contract.

Read the whole catastrophe
