POPSAbout The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) The Large Hadron Generator (LHC) , at CERN. will become the world's largest and highest-energy particle accelerator. Its main purpose is to explore the validity and limitations of the standard model, the current theoretical picture for particle physics. Concerns, however, have been raised regarding the safety of the LHC on the grounds that it might produce dangerous phenomena, including micro black holes.

POPSThe Washington Post-er Child For Climate Bias It’s quite possible that if Eilperin and the many other members of the mainstream media who so far have been in the tank for global warming started reporting on the very real debate about climate model validity rather than simply regurgitating what the agenda-driven modelers tell them, then we could avert the looming national economic disaster that Congress is preparing for the next president to sign into law.

POPSIs Photography dead? "Photography is finally escaping any dependence on what is in front of a lens, but it comes at the price of its special claim on a viewer's attention as "evidence" rooted in reality. As gallery material, photographs are now essentially no different from paintings concocted entirely from an artist's imagination, except that they lack painting's manual touch and surface variation. As the great modern photographer Lisette Model once said, "Photography is the easiest art, which perhaps makes it the hardest." She had no idea how easy exotic effects would get, and just how hard that would make it to capture beauty and truth in the same photograph. The next great photographers—if there are to be any—will have to find a way to reclaim photography's special link to reality. And they'll have to do it in a brand-new way."
