London, Nov 4 : Ireland’s largest bookmaker, Paddy Power, has slashed its odds on proof being found of God''s existence to just 4-1.

Washington, Nov 4: Scientists have found a fungus that produces a new type of fuel, which they call ‘myco-diesel.’
Gary Strobel, Montana State University professor of plant sciences and plant pathology, said that the discovery might offer an alternative to fossil fuels.
Strobel found the diesel-producing fungus in a Patagonia rainforest. He visited the rainforest in 2002 and collected a variety of specimens, including the branches from an ancient family of trees known as "ulmo."
When Strobel and his research team examined the branches, they found fungus growing inside.
They continued to investigate and discovered that the fungus, called "Gliocladium roseum," was producing gases.
