Large Hadron Collider Halted By Bird Crumbs

The massive machine at the center of the world's biggest scientific experiment has malfunctioned again – derailed by a bit of bread dropped by a bird.


But wait, it gets better...

But the difficulties faced by those working on the project have prompted some members of the scientific community to speculate, in all seriousness, that the machine is sabotaging itself — from the future.

The theory is that the particle that physicists hope to produce might be "abhorrent to nature," so that once created it would work backwards through time to put a stop to whatever created it.

was the flu shot the source.

In the traditional English common law, adultery was a felony. Although the legal definition of "adultery" differs in nearly every legal system, the common theme is sexual relations outside of marriage, in one form or another.

For example, New York defines an adulterer as a person who "engages in sexual intercourse with another person at a time when he has a living spouse, or the other person has a living spouse."[9] North Carolina defines adultery as occurring when any man and woman "lewdly and lasciviously associate, bed, and cohabit together."[10] Minnesota law provides: "when a married woman has sexual intercourse with a man other than her husband, whether married or not, both are guilty of adultery."[11] As recently as 2001, Virginia prosecuted an attorney, John R. Bushey of Luray, for adultery, a case that ended in a guilty plea and a $125 fine.[12][13] Adultery is against the governing law of the U.S. military.[14]

In common-law countries, adultery was also known as "criminal conversation". This was the civil tort arising from the same act(s) giving rise to the criminal action for adultery.[15] Another tort, alienation of affection, arises when one spouse deserts the other for a third person.[16] This act was also known as desertion, which was often a crime as well.[17] A small number of jurisdictions still allow suits for criminal conversation and/or alienation of affection.[18]

A marriage in which both spouses agree to accept sexual relations by either partner with another person is a form of nonmonogamy, and the spouses would not treat the sexual relations as adultery, although it could still be considered a crime in some legal jurisdictions.

In Canada, though the written definition in the Divorce Act refers to extramarital relations with someone of the opposite sex, a British Columbia judge used the Civil Marriage Act in a 2005 case to grant a woman a divorce from her husband who had cheated on her with another man, which the judge felt was equal reasoning to dissolve the union.

and Minnesota agrees with the standard muslim view of the definition of adultery.

There's a wikipedia list of famous serial killers by country. no statistics, but it certainly doesn't look like 93%. And factor in that wikipedia is peer edited, and that it's the english speaking site, it's not far fetched to gather why the English speaking countries (US, UK, Australia, Canada) have more on their list than the others.

I'm not saying it's equal, but I would like to see where this 93% number came from.
