Introducing Ununoctium!
Great news for science geeks: Russian scientists have discovered chemical element #118, temporarily known as Ununoctium! This name, from the Latin for 118, will be replaced once the world's leading scientists decide on a permanent name. Ununoctium is a member of the noble gases (my favorite family) and most likely will share many properties with Radon, the next largest noble gas. Go to Wikipedia for more info.
