Lawrence Livermore Laboratories has discovered the heaviest element yet known to science, reports Vida Adamoli.
The new element, Governmentium (Gv), has one neutron, 25 assistant neutrons, 88 deputy neutrons, and 198 assistant deputy neutrons, giving it an atomic mass of 312.
These 312 particles are held together by forces called morons, which are surrounded by vast quantities of lepton-like particles called peons.

Two years in the making, the 2008 US presidential election is on our doorstep. By the time the campaign ends, the candidates will have spent more than a billion dollars trying to get the job. All those bucks for a position that earns less than half million dollars a year and lasts only four years!
But weighing the post by its salary is like saying that Olympic athletes sweat for years just to pocket a few hundred dollars' worth of gold. The post of President of the United States carries immense power to make decisions that affect, for better or worse, people the world over. And the vice-president - who must be ready to take the reigns at a moment's notice - is almost as powerful.That's why John McCain has chosen a woman the calibre of Sarah Palin as his running mate.
See her awesome Flow Chart.

You've heard about people who have been abducted and had their kidneys
removed by black-market organ thieves? Well, this kind of cruel theft
is happening with other body parts as well!
My thighs were stolen from me during the night a few years ago. I went to sleep and woke up with someone else's thighs. It was just that quick. The replacements had the texture of cooked oatmeal. Whose thighs were these and what happened to mine? I spent the entire summer looking for my thighs. Finally, hurt and angry, I resigned myself to living out my life in jeans. And then the thieves struck again.
