The biggest and most expensive machine ever built has finally been switched on. At 8.30am UK time, scientists at the CERN particle physics laboratory began their first attempt to fire a beam of particles around the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the £3.6bn atom-smasher that will open a new window on the Universe. The LHC team is initially trying to pass the proton beam around just one of the 27km ring’s eight sectors, to ensure it is properly lined up. A “beam-stopper”, or block, is in place at the end of the first sector, about 3km in, to prevent the particle stream from passing further around the accelerator. Once the beam is aimed correctly and can be seen passing through the first sector, the team will remove the first beam-stopper, and attempt to fire protons around three-eights of the ring. Over the course of the day, they hope to get it to pass around the entire circuit without touching the sides, and thus to start circulating. http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/uk/science/article4722261.ece

If the world does end, will we get that sh*tty 'site closed for maintenance' page?

Just failed according to the radio, they're just trying it again.

At the end of the day, if the hardon collider does go wrong, at least France & Germany get dicked first.

But simo, why do you need waterproofs when drips don't get wet anyway?

How much did they pay you to say that?

I sent him a PM, thought that might have cheered him up

And 50,000 today

You can dream.

I saw a video of a man doing a jump from an aeroplane, he jumped, parachute opened and he made it to the floor. Second jump, he jumped out and the parachute opened, but alas, there was a gust of wind which blew the poor man over a crocodile enclosure, he landed but, well you know......... (See Faces of Death 3)

Do I smoke all my green just in case?

Some old people enjoy a bit of sun

Gardeners isn't that great.

Ghostbusters 3 No official plot yet, but they hope to bring back the guys from the previous installments. 9.08.08 The Chicago Tribune got hold of writer/actor Harold Ramis, who confirms and offers additional info on the project. He reveals that Judd Apatow and crew may be involved and the storyline will likely revolve around the original Ghostbusters mentoring a younger group of hopefuls, similar to the late 90's animated series, Extreme Ghostbusters. Here's what he had to say:

JC 2 I agree pretty poor, I liked the kills in WT2 & FD3.

Saw 5 Also due out between now and 2009 Diary of the Dead 2 Begins where the first film ends, where the remaining characters have fought their way through a mansion filled with zombies and have escaped to a remote island, and once again find themselves in yet another battle with the walking dead. George Romero is done with the first draft of the script and is in the process of fine-tuning it. Once that's done, he simply has to wait for the go-ahead from the studio to beging filming. Final Destination 4 The film follows a group of young people, who are once again stalked by death, after one of them receives a premonition that ends up saving their lives during a deadly racecar crash that kills the drivers and many onlookers in the stands. Filming begins sometime in February '09 in New Orleans. Jeepers Creepers 3: The Creeper Walks Among Us. Set 23 years after the previous film, we follow Trish Jenner (Gina Phillips), who is now a mother. Realizing that the return of the Creeper is just around the corner, she begins to have terrible recurring nightmares of her own teenage son confronting the creature and suffering the same fate as her deceased brother. Now a rich and powerful woman, she's determined to finally put an end to the Creeper once and for all. REC 2 This project is currently "in talks" and nothing has been confirmed. The original production company Filmax has shown interest and the likelihood of a sequel actually happening seems high. It's said that this sequel will have the same handheld look and "claustrophobic concept" as the first. Wrong Turn 3 Not much is known about the project other than it is in the early stages of development. Viewers may or may not remember director Declan O'Brien's work on various Sci-Fi movie originals. Wrong Turn 2 director Joe Lynch will apparently not be involved. The Toolbox Murders 2 FX artist Dean Jones' directorial debut. Expect more deaths and background info on the killer this time. No word yet on what kind of involvement remake director Tobe Hooper will have on the film. Original remake writers Adam Gierasch and Jace Anderson were going to return at one point, but were eventually replaced by Jeffrey Reddick. Cabin Fever 2: Spring Fever In this film the flesh-eating virus makes its way out of the woods and into a high school prom.

I believe there was a Large Hardon Collider in Winchester Prison last night.

He might have said it, I just remember seeing the words of an old calendar thing my mum had from the 60's.

Advise who? Whether or not you agree, the weather will be either sunny or sh*te, whether you like it or not. As a rule a man's a fool, When it's hot he want's it cool, When it's cool he want's it hot, Always wanting what is not.
