  1. CERN: We've found 'a Higgs boson'; but is it predicted version?

    Evidence indicates that the new particle discovered at the Large Hadron Collider is a Higgs boson, officials at the European Organization for Nuclear Research, also known as CERN, said Thursday.  But whether it is the version of the Higgs boson predicted by the Standard Model of Particle Physics is not yet known.

  2. Excerpt: 'The Book of My Lives' by Aleksandar Hemon

    I do not know how old I was when I learned to play chess. I could not have been older than 8, because I still have a chess board on whose side my father inscribed, with a soldering iron, “Saša Hemon 1972.” I loved the board more than chess — it was one of the first things I owned. Its materiality was enchanting to me: the smell of burnt wood that lingered long after my father had branded it; the rattle of the thickly varnished pieces inside, the smacking sound they made when I set them down, the board's hollow wooden echo. I can even recall the taste — the queen's tip was pleasantly suckable; the pawns' round heads, not unlike nipples, were sweet. The board is at our old place in Sarajevo, and, even if I haven't played a game on it in decades, it is still my most cherished possession, providing incontrovertible evidence that there once lived a boy who used to be me.

  10. Resident inventor patents game for all ages

    By his own estimate, 72-year-old Ron Stirtz has been innovating and inventing for the last 60 years. The Nebraska native, who has a home in western Oregon but spends the bulk of the year at the Rio Bend RV Parks on the outskirts of El Centro, has patented, among other things, a shock-absorbent midsole for running shoes which was picked up by Adidas. He has also dabbled in fishing tackle and in creating the proverbial &ldquo;better mousetrap&rdquo;, but his most recent venture has taken him into new territory &mdash; that of the family picnic, the lazy Sunday, or the rainy day indoors.
