CERN: Test results show more detail about 'God particle'

(Of course, when the Higgs boson got that other name, it's likely that somebody simply dropped the "damn" from the nickname. )

Webelements

I see they've given names to the last four elements to be added to the periodic table.

113 Nh Nihonium (added 2003)
115 Mc Moscovium (added 2003)
117 Ts Tennessine (added 2010; now it has a stately name)
118 Og Oganesson (added 2002)

(114 Fl and 116 Lv were added in a previous millennium )

(I wonder when they'll start the eighth period?)

Well, I guess that's where the principle of uncertainty comes in.
