The Large Hadron Collider is in trouble again. It will start work sometime in spring 2008, not November this year as planned. The delay has been blamed on an ‘accumulation of minor setbacks,’ and comes on top of a ‘design fault’ that saw breakdown of magnets supplied by the competing Fermilab. Yesterday Slate nicely rounded up increasingly loud rumors among physicists that Fermilab may already have seen the ‘holy grail of particle physics’ the LHC was build to find.

the apple iphone ads are out a few weeks before the june 29th release. i’m not waiting with any particular need for it. thought i’d link the ads nevertheless. my philosophy: never buy a first gen apple product. you’ll regret it.
