NYT’s 10 things to scratch from your worry list
After discussing the Artic’s missing ice (don’t worry, it is not missing – there is more ice there this year then the last year), NYT pointed out two more things that we can scratch off from the worry list:
9. The universe’s missing mass. Even if the fate of the universe — steady expansion or cataclysmic collapse — depends on the amount of dark matter that is out there somewhere, you can rest assured that no one blames you for losing it. And most experts doubt this collapse will occur during your vacation.
10. Unmarked wormholes. Could your vacation be interrupted by a sudden plunge into a wormhole? From my limited analysis of space-time theory and the movie “Jumper,” I would have to say that the possibility cannot be eliminated. I would also concede that if the wormhole led to an alternate universe, there’s a good chance your luggage would be lost in transit.
I wished they had included the worry about blackholes from LHC – yes, you can scratch that off your worry list too.

Physicist’s Facebook Status Messages
I thought it might be interesting to start gathering up the Physics related Facebook Status Messages that I have been posting on my Facebook account.
Here are some of my favorites.
-
Sunny feels the chill from the the LHC (Large Hadron Collider) being cooled to 1.9 Kelvin (-271C; -456F) – colder than deep space. Where did I put my space heater?
-
Sunny feels like he’s diagonally parked in a parallel universe.
- Sunny exists purely as a probability density function; he can be at more than one places at the same time.
- Basic research is what I am doing when I don’t know what I am doing.
- Sunny is still searching for Higgs.
- I abhor M theory with every fiber of my being.
- almost finished with the paper, I just has to dot my “i” and cross my “h”.
- Sunny has learned not to store plutonium in a tupperwear container.
- is pondering, if Schroedinger’s Cat walks into a forest, and no one is around to observe it, is he really in the forest?
- Wanted, dead AND alive, Schrödinger’s Cat.
Hopefully we will have plenty more by the time the next Talk Like A Physicist Day comes along (March 14, 2009).
