			<title><![CDATA[Scientists Discover Snow Turns Drivers Into Idiots]]></title>
			<description><![CDATA[CAMBRIDGE (CAP) - Scientists at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology have discovered a brain disorder that causes drivers to forget the most basic rules of driving the minute snow starts to fall. Dubbed Seasonal Driving Disorder (SDD), researcher Roderick Crawford describes it as a neurological syndrome in which the presence of snow literally causes synapses in the brain to cease firing. In turn, people suffering from the disorder lose the ability to recall even the simplest driving procedures, such as how to maintain a consistent speed, or what the brakes do...]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[A horse and a chicken were playing in a meadow. Suddenly, the horse fell into a mude hole, and started sinking. He called to the chicken for help. The chicken knew it wasn't strong enough to pull out the horse by herself, so the chicken runs to the farm to get the farmer. But the farmer was nowhere to be found. So the chicken drove the farmer's BMW back to the mud hole, tied some rope around the bumper, and threw it to the horse. The chicken drove the car forward and saved the horse from sinking...]]></description>

			<title><![CDATA[Ancient Builders and Levitation]]></title>
			<description><![CDATA[Great stone structures and megaliths around the world stand as mysteries to how they were constructed. Is it possible their builders possessed the powers of defying gravity? Did ancient civilizations possess knowledge that has since been lost to science? Were amazing technologies available to the ancient Egyptians that enabled them to construct the pyramids - technologies that have somehow been forgotten?..]]></description>

			<title><![CDATA[Сборник сочинений Ли Вонг Яна]]></title>
			<description><![CDATA[<strong>Ли Вонг Ян</strong> (李忘咽, Ли, Забывший Глотнуть) — легендарный вьетнамский расовый студент, обучавшийся (так гласит легенда) в середине восьмидесятых в МГИМО, как вариант — в Университете дружбы народов им. Патриса Лумумбы. Больше о нем ничего не известно, кроме ушедших в фидо, а потом и в интернеты перепечаток его сочинений (несколько глав также были напечатаны в детском журнале «Трамвай», а некоторые из опусов в начале 90-х в одном из номеров журнала «Санкт-Петербургский университет»). Основной особенностью их было то, что Ли Вонг Яну понравилось писать по-русски гораздо раньше, чем он научился это делать. Оригинальные словосочетания и попытки писать по-русски с азиатским менталитетом приводят читателя в неадекватное состояние...]]></description>

			<title><![CDATA[Alien Abductions: True or False?]]></title>
			<description><![CDATA[Hypnosis has become a most popular tool in the field of abduction research. The understanding of its intents and abilities by the general public though are still widely relegated to the earliest erroneous notions of its being a trancelike state with suggestibility and retrieval of repressed memories being the most notable of these traits. Research into the validity of hypnosis and its traits has been done for 200 years yet the only truly revealing research has taken place in the last 30 or so odd years. Research which has shown a much different facet of its nature...]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Giant footprints in the snow of Mt. Everest were discovered by British mountaineers in 1951.  Was that proof that the Yeti, popularly known as the Abominable Snowman, exists?  Further investigators threw doubts on the report, and the controversy goes on.  Is there a giant hairy creature, looking like early man, living in the Himalayas?  Several reports have come out since the early nineteenth century, until the present...]]></description>

			<title><![CDATA[Baba Vanga, the Bulgarian Prophetess]]></title>
			<description><![CDATA[The name "Nostradamus" has come to be synonymous with prophecies, owing to his vast collection of riddle-like quatrains which, as a result, have several interpretations and hence are always the subject of debate. However, a lesser known prophet was "Baba Vanga", originally known as Evangelia Dimitrova, a famous prophetess from Bulgaria, one often compared with Nostradamus himself...]]></description>

			<title><![CDATA["Машина - не переводчик", или "Почему нужно учить языки"]]></title>
			<description><![CDATA[Все мы ежедневно сталкиваемся со спамом, приходящим на электронный ящик. Всё больше фирм прибегают к подобного рода "рекламе" своей продукции. Более того, на почту может прийти письмо откуда-нибудь из-за границы, с рекламой товара или предложением  о сотрудничестве. Совсем недавно автору данной статьи пришло как раз такое письмо, прямо из Поднебесной. Очевидно, что менеджер или иного рода специалист, писавший данное послание, сам никогда русский язык не учил. Но решил положиться на одно из чудес техники - электронный переводчик...]]></description>
