Speaking of hippies, I usually don't engage family members who perceive me as "being on the other side" (pretty much all of them), but the other day, my rabid GOoPy BIL made a reference to "all those hippie liberals collecting entitlements."

Say what? Since he is slightly older than I, I asked him if he thought the hippies of our early years (the 70's) were liberals. Of course he agreed.

I reminded him how they despised any government influence whatsoever in their lives then asked him how that made them liberals.

It was the end of the "discussion."

After I reminded him his non-response has aided the loss of an entire generation.

may have

strange blip in its data

either a new, unexpected form of the fabled Higgs boson particle, or some entirely new (should have included BS)

If it is real

strongly thrilled at the possibility

cautious at the same time

results have circulated in physics circles for months (perhaps the most important) - WE NEED FUNDING!

My wife mentioned KO the same day I learned about it! Hmmmm...

That's some powerful stuff and perhaps that was the intention all along?

Of course I admire and respect KO and what his "ilk" do for the better cause of the American people, but these are the kind of "tricks" other current "news" media use to boost their bottom lines.

Just sayin'.

Most likely easier said than done. No doubt the native peoples know their lands, flora and fauna, but they probably make horrible scientists. I don't know, some kind of basic training, remotely, done through this other group Iniciativa Amotocodie. Respecting all sides of this story is obviously a tough situation. I don't agree with some that it is a quandary of saving the planet at the expense of some "insignificant" tribes.

Not my images, but I volunteer at the NM Museum of Natural History slicing rocks into about 1/4" to 3/8" cross sections which are then sent to Belgium where another guy polishes them down to transluscent and photographs the fusilinids and other fossils for study.

Didn't win anything but I'm satisfied. Over 600 entries and less than 200 displayed, starting at the highest score and going down until out of room. I didn't expect any of them, especially after the lessons/constructive criticism from the director the day of submissions. I'm happy he took the time. The max is 3.

This isn't one of them but thought I would just post it.
