Students at the University of British Columbia may be sliding between floors of their new student union building in a couple years, but employees at two Toronto companies are already enjoying the thrill.

Corus installed a three-storey slide inside their new headquarters on Queen's Quay and advertising agency Grip Limited also gives their employees an alternative to the elevator or stairs.

"When I first heard about it, I immediately thought of recess in elementary school," said Jamie Galloro about the Corus slide to Maclean's On Campus. She watches cartoons for a living, witch is called quality control and says she takes the slide most days. "The novelty has not worn off."

Chief technology officer Scott Dyer oversaw the design of the headquarters and said the building has improved employee satisfaction. He told Maclean's he has a lot of people now asking if they are

The Toronto band entertained passengers while stuck on the tarmac at Pearson International

When planes are delayed on the tarmac people usually groan and grab a book, but a group of people had an entirely different idea when they were stuck on a plane at Pearson.

The members of the Lemon Bucket Orkestra grabbed their instruments and started playing in the aisles. And the passengers seemed to really dig it as they started smiling and clapping along.

"Our plane got delayed 20 minutes so we got out the instruments," reads the YouTube page.

The band, which describes itself as "Toronto's only Balkan-Klezmer-Gypsy-Party-Punk Super-Band" on a Facebook page, delighted passengers with a four-song set while delayed at the Toronto airport on a flight to Europe.

They were heading to Romania for their Balkan Station 2012 Tour and will be playing the International Romani Art Festival.

We're not sure how the instruments, especially the trombone and saxophone, had made it into the cabin, but wouldn't

Bill Wisth is picketing Chuck's Place for not letting him eat as much fish as he could

A U.S. man is protesting a restaurant because the so-called all-you-can-eat special didn't allow him to truly eat all that he could.

Bill Wisth went to Chuck's Place in Thiensville, Wisconsin for their all-you-can-eat fish fry Friday night special, but the restaurant wouldn't serve him more than 12 pieces of fish.

"It's false advertising," he said to TODAY's TMJ4 in Milwaukee. "We asked for more fish and they refused to give us any more fish."

According to a NewsCore article, the restaurant managers dispute Wisth's claims and say they gave him eight more pieces, but then asked him to leave. They also argue they were running low on fish for other customers and described Wisth as a problem customer who has an outstanding tab with the restaurant.

Upset by the move, Wisth, who weighs about 160kg (350 pounds), called the police to complain and then a couple days later showed up at the restaurant with a

The company had 3.5 pounds of weapons-grade uranium in Rochester for more than 30 years

Just across Lake Ontario in Rochester, N.Y., Kodak had kept a small nuclear reactor and weapons-grade uranium for more than 30 years in a basement research facility.

The Democrat and Chronicle, a newspaper in Rochester, reports the company had 3.5 pounds of enriched uranium, but it carried no risk of explosion and never leaked.

"It's such an odd situation because private companies just don't have this material," said Miles Pomper, a senior research associate at the Center for Nonproliferation Studies in Washington, to the Democrat and Chronicle.

The paper learned of the device when an employee just happened to mention it to a reporter.

"It was a known entity, but it was not well-publicized," said Albert Filo, a former Kodak research scientist who worked with the device, to the paper.

Kodak originally got the device, which they closed down six years ago, to see if subatomic particles could be used to

We have many ideas for activities the Prince could try if he is looking to be more like a Torontonian

Prince Charles and the Duchess of Cornwall will be in Toronto for a couple of days near the end of May as part of their Canadian tour. While here, the prince will get a chance to do something many Torontonians dread doing every morning.

He's going to get on the TTC.

While in Toronto, the royals will see Victoria Day fireworks at Asbridges Bay (from a boat), visit the Pan/Parapan American Games Athletes' Village, go to the Distillery District and he'll visit the Yonge Street Mission.

After the reception at the Distillery District, he and his wife will separate as the Prince visits the Yonge Street Mission to meet with CEOs and youth who have been involved with the drug and sex trades. Charles will then ride the rocket to the UforChange centre on Parliament Street to see youth development workshops.

If you are wondering what route he'll take, there isn't actually a route that goes

Marc Joseph Cadieux was dressed like a cop when he couldn't steal the ATM because it was bolted to the ground

A B.C. man was arrested and now faces charges after allegedly attempting to commit a crime while wearing a police uniform in broad daylight.

According to the Vancouver Sun, Chilliwack RCMP say two men, one dressed like a cop, entered a convenience store at a Shell station and tried to remove an ATM. However, they realized they couldn't move it because it was bolted to the floor. With no way of taking the machine, they exited the store and told the clerk they would return.

Real police were notified of the men and their vehicle, which officers later stopped. Both men were arrested, although only one of them was sought in connection with the ATM incident.

While no money went missing, police are investigating how the suspect got a hold of the police uniform. However, they couldn't speak to the authenticity of the uniform.

While trying to commit a crime in the middle of the day in a

Zachary Bodish recently sold the print he bought for $14. It went for $7,000

Thrift stores may normally be known for carrying rags, but one man has found a lot of riches from an item he purchased there.

Zachary Bodish of Ohio paid $14.14 for a poster that ended up being an original signed Pablo Picasso print and recently sold it for $7,000, according to the Associated Press. The person who acquired the art is a private buyer who wishes to remain anonymous.

"A pretty good return," said the 46-year-old Bodish to the Associated Press. "Can't get that at a bank."

Bodish said to The Columbus Dispatch the only thing he is allowed to say about the buyer is, "He raises thoroughbreds and he's sort of a big deal."

Bodish, who used to work at an arts centre before being laid off a few years ago, bought the print because of its high quality. It wasn't until he got home that he noticed that the co-founder of the Cubist movement signed the paper.

"I started shaking a little bit," he said to the

A bus carrying South Korean tourists at a national park in Taiwan shot backward, swerved and plunged off a cliff Wednesday, injuring 15 people on board. Miraculously, everyone on the bus survived.

According to Focus Taiwan, 13 tourists, a local guide and the driver were rushed to hospital and treated for minor injuries.

According to the BBC, initial reports show the bus was travelling up a steep mountain road in Taroko National Park when the engine failed. Focus Taiwan is reporting the bus driver was at fault for not having a license to drive a large vehicle.

The driver and tour bus company have each been fined the equivalent of about $1,400.
