On May 31 of 2012 2 new elements approved by the "International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC)" (http://earthsky.org/human-world/two-new-elements) are a new addition to the periodic table of elements making the periodic table have a total of 118 elements. The two elements, flerovium and livermorium were discovered during a research get together lead by scientists working at the Lawrence Livermore National Lab situated in the U.S. Others from the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research in Russia.
Most probably you do not know anything about these two element so I'm going to give you some second hand info.
Flerovium is element 114 and simple enough has the symbol of FL. The atomic mass of 289. The superheavy element was named after the founder of the Joint Institute, Georgiy N. Flerov. Scientists studied both of the elements in labs and conduction experiment. The scientists were able to bombard other elements like plutonium and add protons to them to see what amount of protons would make Flerovium or Livermorium.
Livermorium is element 116 and an atomic weight of 293. Its symbol is LV. The element was named in tribute of the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in Livermore, California, USA.

That's cool, I liked that you gave us description about them and not only said their names.
