Meteorite Crashes In N.J. Bathroom

Scientists have confirmed that the strange, silvery rock that tore a hole in the roof and landed on the bathroom of the Nageswaran family more than a week ago had been a meteorite.

Although about 50 extraterrestrial rocks crash on Earth regularly, it rarely strikes homes.

"The fact that something from outer space hit our house ... it's overwhelming," Shankari Nageswaran said in an interview.

Shankari and her husband, Srinivasan Nageswaran, are from India and have been living in Freehold Township since 2003.

It was the night of Jan. 2, when Srinivasan went into his bathroom and saw the hole in the ceiling along with chunks of drywall and insulation scattered around the area.

After cleaning up the bathroom, Shankari had found a metallic sparkly rock about the size of a golf ball but heavier at 13 ounces.

Two geologists from Rutgers University and an independent metallurgist confirmed that the rock - tentatively called "Freehold Township" - was an iron meteorite.

"It could have done great damage and destruction," Srinivasan Nageswaran marveled. "It could have hurt our people."

Every meteorite serves as a "poor man's space probe," yielding information on how the solar system formed, said Tim McCoy, curator of the Smithsonian Institution's meteorite collection.

"There's been fewer than 5,000 meteorites found over the surface of the Earth in the recorded history of mankind," McCoy added. "Every time we get a new one, it's an important event."

Meteorites that land on buildings are priced at thousands of dollars.

The Nageswarans have not yet decided what to do with it. "There are other dimensions to it than just the absolute 'What is it worth?'" Shankari Nageswaran said.

Farmer's Pigs Set Fire In His Home

A farmer's house in northern Serbia was set ablaze when three pigs broke into his house in his absence and destroyed the electric equipment. The incident took place on Monday when the farmer was out of his home and the three pigs broke out of their pen, walked into the living room and knocked over the television.

According to police reports, the burst television tube triggered off the blaze that spread through the house late evening in Temerin, 50 miles northwest of Belgrade.

Though no person was hurt in the blaze, the pigs responsible for causing the fire perished in the accident.

Australian Zoo Cages Humans For Public Viewing

A zoo in Australia is putting humans on public display in one of its orangutan enclosures for a month-long experiment that's been titled "the human zoo." Groups of people taking part in the experiment will be locked in the enclosure during the zoo's opening hours for a week, and the public will be able to observe them through large perspex windows and live webcams.

As of Tuesday evening, six people had put themselves in the orangutan enclosure at Adelaide Zoo. Animal behaviorists will be studying the caged humans to try to find ways to improve the living conditions of captive great apes.

University of South Australia animal psychology specialist Carla Litchfield says she will live inside the enclosure for the entire month.

"Part of what I do at the zoo is to come up with activities for great apes and other animals, to stimulate them behaviorally and keep their brains occupied," she told ABC radio on Wednesday.

"I never know what it feels like, so a month in there will give me a good idea of the smells and sounds and what it's like to be stared at by thousands of people every day."

People who visit the zoo can vote for their favorite caged human if they have a particular preference.

According to the zoo, the project will also raise money for a new chimpanzee enclosure in South Australia state.

Guitar Designs


Very interesting work of designers with a lot of imagination, I would like to say, although jet imagination little bit twisted, so the guitar in shape of M –16 isn’t everyday thing and exactly this make worth and valid and also enough interesting for this site.



If are you an octopus or something similar with a lot of limbs or hands, this guitar would also even use it to present yourself like a real professional performer.



This made of guitar is rather impressive, although I can with safe what is about the word; I have to stress out that remind me on a little religious work from the Holly Bible book, but I am not sure for this!







As far as you haven’t a girlfriend, this guitar would satisfy some other yours needs besides the playing the guitar, in what I don’t suspect to play bad, but for sure don’t exaggerate, be careful and remember “ Medium is merit”.



This is P*** :), I have no idea what kind of guitar is, nor even what looks like, it was simply interesting for me and non everyday shape, and I have put it with the other
strange guitars.
