Waterstones have launched the new Haynes Workshop manual for the F1 Red Bull

Now if you own a F1 car you can find out how to change a wheel or fit new spark plugs.

The trouble with an F1 car is, you need to have a team of mechanics following  in a support van to change all 4 tyres every 30 minutes

So, even if I can speed away from the traffic jams , I have to wait for the support van to catch up to me

That clever man Dyson has invented a fan that has NO blades and does not need a wire guard.

Apparently the fan makes air travel through the ring 18 faster than normal.

With no moving parts I was sure this was a wind up, but it is listed at Amazon for only £185 pounds

Great invention.

I'd wait another year before buying one though.

They clearly don't cost that much to make so once the novelty has worn off they'll have to bring the price in line with normal desk fans.

I can spend way less than £185 to make wind pass through my ring 18 time faster than normal.

The Planet Nibiru, which conspiracy theorists say is a planet swinging in from the outskirts of our solar system that is going to crash into Earth and wipe out humanity in 2012 — or, in some opinions, 2011 — shows that an astonishing number of people "are watching YouTube videos and visiting slick websites with nothing in their skeptical toolkit," in the words of David Morrison, a planetary astronomer at NASA Ames Research Center and senior scientist at the NASA Astrobiology Institute.

Morrison estimates that there are 2 million websites discussing the impending Nibiru-Earth collision.  He receives, on average, five email inquiries about Nibiru every day.

2 million websites Huh?

apparently its a planet that orbits through the solar system every 3,600 years

heres one You tube link

The Biggest Ever slot machine Win

The largest jackpot that has ever been won in Las Vegas was $38.7 million dollars. The Excalibur Hotel and Casino had the hot machine in March of 2003. The jackpot winner was a 25 year old man that was visiting Las Vegas for the NCAA Basketball Tournament. He was lucky enough to turn his $100 dollar investment into an overwhelming $1.5 million dollars a year for the next 25 years.

The biggest winners to date are all winners of the huge progressive jackpot game called Megabucks. The Megabucks jackpot starts at $7 million dollars and continues to grow until there is a winner. Megabucks has a network of slot machines in over 150 locations throughout Nevada. More players adds up to a higher jackpot.

In 2010 At the age of 92 Elmer Sherwin won the Megabucks jackpot for the second time. Twenty one years after his first win, Mr. Sherwin hit the Megabucks jackpot again for $21 million. His first win was for $4.6 million and he seemed content with that.

In 1989 Elmer Sherwin hit the jackpot only nine hours after The Mirage, a Las Vegas strip hotel-casino opened for business. He played a slot machine 90 minutes before coming up the big winner.

Sherwin spent $80 of his own money, then borrowed $20 more from former wife, Florence, to continue playing, a Mirage spokesman said.

Following Sherwin's win, IGT for the first time reset its Megabucks jackpot at $10 million, up $3 million from its previous starting point. The game's current record jackpot is more than $38.7 million, won at Excalibur in March 2003.

The scariest ever holiday snap was taken on a beach full of bathers,

 They were unaware of the shark/whale working its way along the beach

Surely the screams would have made people look

No moving parts? You absolutely sure about that? Yes, it has no traditional fan blades, but if it has no moving parts it would be magic and also not require a motor or a power supply.

Why do you think it's soo expensive? It's MAGIC!

Dyson has clearly cracked perpetuum mobile and is using it for nifty little fans

Yeah, apparently it was Dumbledore's big secret. Turns out that when he said he was in the closet, he actually meant that he was "in the closet working on the fans with Dyson"
