The metatags in the header of that page don't disable the browser cache, so once you visit the page there's no guarantee the information is up-to-date when you return  |

Reminds me of my school geography teacher, who told us that the sun is 93 million miles away, so if the sun suddenly went out (?) it would be nine minutes before we noticed ...  |

William Huskisson MP▸ was the first person to be killed by a train while crossing the tracks, in 1830. Many more have died in the same way since then. Don't take a chance: stop, look, listen.
"Level crossings are safe, unless they are used in an unsafe manner." Discuss.

"Plans to begin smashing particles at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) may be delayed after a magnet failure forced engineers to halt work. The failure, known as a quench, caused around 100 of the LHC's super-cooled magnets to heat up by as much as 100C. The fire brigade were called out after a tonne of liquid helium leaked into the tunnel at Cern, near Geneva. The LHC beam will remain turned off over the weekend while engineers investigate the severity of the fault." See http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/sci/tech/7626256.stm |
