A tomato fight? What is that?

A tomato fight? Must be related to one of the many bizarre festivals of Spain. Of course, the festivals look bizarre only to those that are not from Spain.

Tomatina Tomato Fight is held on the last Wednesday of August each year in the town of Buñol in the Valencia region of Spain. Tens of thousands of participants come from all over the world to fight in a brutal battle where more than one hundred metric tons of over-ripe tomatoes are thrown in the streets.

What an idea of a fight? Don't you think it is a colossus waste of resources when you think of hungry nations? And to know that this festival is held for week is disturbing really.

The week-long festival features music, parades, dancing, and fireworks.

In preparation for the dirty mess that will ensue, shopkeepers use huge plastic covers on their storefronts in order to protect them from the carnage.

What happens?
*The party or festival starts at 10 a.m.
*Many trucks haul the bounty of tomatoes into the center of the town, Plaza del Pueblo.
*The festival begins when one person climb to the top of a two-story high, greased-up wooden pole and reach the coveted ham at the top.
*The signal for the beginning of the fight is firing of water cannons, and the chaos begins.
*Participants wear protective safety goggles and gloves.
*They must squish the tomatoes before throwing for safety precautions.

NASA scientist points to aliens through bacteria fossils in meteors.

NASA does it again through one of its scientists Dr Richard Hoover, an astrobiologist!

Astrobiologist? What next?

Well, we all know bacteria but never seen one. After all, they are not visible to naked human eyes. If that is the case, how about fossils of bacteria? I am not joking.

This scientist Hoover has studied fossils of bacteria and that fossils embedded in dead meteors found on all the strange and isolated places on Earth.

These bacteria fossils revealed to him that life apart from Earth exist. He comcluded based on the fact that while some fossils of bacteria are similar to the bacteria found on earth, other fossils of bacteria offered no clue to him.

Flying alien female tried to interact with Russian pilot.

The UFO was reported to by flying at great speed, about at 6000 mph! Whoops! That is real speed.

In the UFO that appeared in the radar of Russian air traffic controller's office, an alien was flying and the voice indicated it is a female. The language of course was incomprehensible-just a sort of miao miao.

The UFO was flying over the diamond capital called Yakutsk in Russia. At least, that is what the radar position indicated. It was very clear that alien was trying to talk to humans at the air traffic control office.
