Anti-LHC lawsuit lands in legal black hole: Anti-LHC lawsuit lands in legal black holeDuh!Somehow I don't think the Swiss government would take kindly to a US Marshal being dispatched to CERN with an order to shut down the reactor.US courts clearly don't have jurisdiction in this case.; Tags: Anti-LHC, black hole; Discussion threads 2008-10-01
LHC shuts down for 2 months over faulty wiring: LHC shuts down for 2 months over faulty wiringthe endI thought we were supposed to wait till 2012 to end the world. Sigh the universe is punishing the LHC for being 4 years ahead of schedule.RE: LHC shuts down for 2 months over faulty wiring2012 probably...; Tags: LHC, faulty wiring; Discussion threads 2008-09-22
LHC shuts down for 2 months over faulty wiring: Update: CERN now says the LHC won't restart until April. The two-month delay moves the LHC to late November on the calendar, and the machine has to shut down for the winter to avoid huge energy bills. via New York Times The Large...; Tags: CERN, Magnet, LHC, Cable, Network Technology, Telecommunications, Personal Technology, Networking, Richard Koman; Blog posts 2008-09-22
LHC ready for trial collisions: LHC ready for trial collisionsLet's not and say we didn't.Some stuff just shouldn't be done.lhcfacts.orgStart your timersThe theory goes that five years give or take after the first collisions making a mini black hole, we'll see the first radiation jets shooting up through the earth's crust. After that, it's have...; Tags: LHC, black hole, insurance; Discussion threads 2008-09-18
Hackers deface LHC site, came close to turning off particle detector: Hackers deface LHC site, came close to turning off particle detectorHackersFrom hackers like these something terrible might happen.Even if everything is ironed up perfectly and runs smoothly, an accident can happen due to this kind of people.

Hackers deface LHC site, came close to turning off particle detector: Is it now cyberwar over atom-smashing? A team of Greek hackers calling themselvses Greek Security Team has penetrated the Large Hadron Collider and defaced a public website. No real damage done, but the hackers got perilously close. The hackers attacked the Compact Muon Solenoid Experiment, or...; Tags: Hacker, Content Management System, LHC, Hacking, Security, Richard Koman; Blog posts 2008-09-12
Has the Large Hadron Collider destroyed the world yet?: Has the Large Hadron Collider destroyed the world yet?Has the Large Hadron Collider destroyed the world yet?That's a pretty funny site. Some amusement in the page source too.YawnThis is getting old. Nobody said the LHC would destroy the world when it started up. They said it would destroy the...; Tags: Micro Black hole, Large Hadron Collider, black hole; Discussion threads 2008-09-11
LHC, Genomics and the era of massive data sets: LHC, Genomics and the era of massive data setsDefinitely good for my businessI'm quite sure that my employer will be more than happy to sell people tools for analyzing those massive datasets. In practice, secrecy (or rather, confidentiality) has its place (don't really want the general public poring over...; Tags: LHC, massive data set, Genomic, data set; Discussion threads 2008-09-11
LHC a sure sign that Europe is the center of physics: LHC a sure sign that Europe is the center of physicsHmmm, the brain drain is more thanlosing our people to Europe... it's our poor education system. It's amazing how low on the scale we are for developed nations when it comes to education. Especially in the lower grades where it...; Tags: INTERNET, fascism, LHC, sure sign; Discussion threads 2008-09-11
Hey, Dad, did you hear the world was going to end this week?: So says my oldest nonchalantly as he go in the car yesterday. He was, of course, referring to the Large Hadron Collider that just conducted its first successful test, firing a stream of particles under the Alps. Although he was somewhat cavalier (he's 16; he's always cavalier), he,...; Tags: Science, LHC, Productivity, Christopher Dawson; Blog posts 2008-09-11
The Collider and the Grid: Distributed computing made LHC possible: The Collider and the Grid: Distributed computing made LHC possibleGo LHC!It was a real pleasure to be part of the BOINC community that worked on the LHC distributed computing project. I can't speak for the other contributers, but I felt that I was finally doing something of real value...; Tags: cloud computing, Network technology, LHC, distributed computing; Discussion threads 2008-09-10
(Gallery: Scientists react to Hadron success): (Gallery: Scientists react to Hadron success)Coilliding protons is nothing newAnd nothing to worry about. Humans have been doing it for years, and Nature has been doing it for much longer.As far as the LHC, they have accomplished what they set out to do: build a functioning collider which uses higher...; Tags: Hadron, Doomsday Machine, LHC; Discussion threads 2008-09-10
The Collider and the Grid: Distributed computing made LHC possible: So the LHC is turned on! And it works great. And we're still alive. I'm not gonna beat that horse today. See Ars for snark But a good IT angle here. LHC is really only possible because of the growth of grid computing....; Tags: Data, Distributed Computing, Grid, LHC, Cloud Computing, Network Technology, Networking, Richard Koman; Blog posts 2008-09-10

Stephen Hawking: LHC vital, absolutely safe: Stephen Hawking: LHC vital, absolutely safeLHC "vital"?I think Dr. Hawking is overstating the case just a little, but I agree that fears that the LHC will create an earth-swallowing black hole that would require a lot more matter than is available are way overblown.I think the media just likes the...; Tags: LHC, Stephen Hawking; Discussion threads 2008-09-09
Stephen Hawking: LHC vital, absolutely safe: Note: Replaced still from Hawking on Star Trek with this clip -- so much fun Since the geniuses at CERN have failed to assuage amped-up if entirely unfounded fears that the Large Hadron Collider is actually a doomsday machine, they have reached up to the mountain to...; Tags: Black Hole, LHC, Richard Koman; Blog posts 2008-09-09

LHC and Faith-Based Science: Public reaction to the Large Hadron Collider is so ignorant and brain-dead we need a theory to explain what's going on. I asked Charles King at Pund-IT for a theory.
