Scientists at CERN observe three "exotic" particles for first time

14. I've only seen part of that film

and it's on my watch list.

Back in college as a chem major, me and my buddies were thrown into 3 semesters of physics with physics & astronomy majors (along with some engineering majors). My professor for my "Electricity and Magnetism" course used to slap a transparency completely filled with handwritten scroll on an overhead projector and would whip it off the projector less than 30 seconds after putting it there, only to replace it with a new one filled with more writing. I literally had to bring a tape recorder to class to record the lectures because the guy (who was native Chinese) would talk too fast and I needed to listen again later to get the gist of what he was trying to say.

The professor I had for my first semester general physics and for my "Elementary Particle physics" classes (same guy for both) was a Brit who was a bit of a clown, and who would routinely do some "performances" (e.g., lying on a bed of nails) to demonstrate some concepts.
