ANNUAL ROSWELL UFO FESTIVAL VOTED NUMBER FIVE ON THE LIST OF WACKIEST U.S. SUMMER EVENTS

When it is hot outside, people do the darndest things. One example of a wacky event is the Roswell UFO Festival in July. Travelers come from all around the country to Roswell, New Mexico - in the southeastern part of the state - to "promote extraterrestrial education. Expert" speakers teach attendants all there is to know about E.T.s. Even Fido can come along, as there is an alien pet costume contest where anyone's pup can show off this season's "other-worldly couture." Since the festival is held over July 4th weekend, the celebration is not lacking firework shows. General admission is free, but certain events do have a charge. On June 23, TripAdvisor ranked the UFO Festival as the fifth wackiest event this summer.

The 73-year-old mystic, from Padstow, said that the likes of Wayne Rooney and Frank Lampard, who have so far performed poorly at the tournament, will now be free to wreak havoc on opposition defences.

THEOLOGIAN CLAIMS JESUS MAY NOT HAVE DIED ON THE CROSS


The legend of his execution is based on the traditions of the Christian church and artistic illustrations rather than antique texts, according to theologian Gunnar Samuelsson. He claims the Bible has been misinterpreted as there are no explicit references the use of nails or to crucifixion - only that Jesus bore a "staurus" towards Calvary which is not necessarily a cross but can also mean a "pole".
