...different conditions. Before such genomic-analysis technology became available, researchers could study only the gut microbes (animal or human) that could be cultured outside their intestinal home - something that not all of the oxygen-shunning bugs were amenable to - but never the complete microbiota of the gut. "We cannot recapitulate the entire microbial diversity that exists in these complex communities. We simply don't know how to culture them, so we could miss a lot of diversity," says Gordon...
Many physicists say that Nielsen and Ninomiya's theory, while intellectually interesting, cannot be accurate because the event that the LHC is trying to recreate already happens in nature. Particle collisions of an energy equivalent to those planned in the LHC occur when high-energy cosmic rays collide with the earth's atmosphere. What's more, some scientists believe that the Tevatron accelerator at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (or Fermilab) near Chicago has already created Higgs bosons without incident; the Fermilab scientists are now refining data from their collisions to prove the Higgs' existence.

...local ordinance giving gays there protection against discrimination at work and in housing, but so far has been unsuccessful in convincing lawmakers to allow gay marriage. "LGBT Americans have been waiting decades to see simple civil rights, and many of them are running out of time - we cannot wait forever...
...homosexuals. "The church truly desires to be a defender of human rights," says the Archbishop. He also admits that many Americans do not share Catholic teachings about marriage. Nevertheless, he says the church believes that the "defense of truth," as God, nature and human history have revealed it, cannot be separated from the pursuit of justice. You can't have justice, he argues, if the truth of marriage between one man and one woman as a cornerstone of human society is denied.

...intergovernmental energy watchdog based in Paris, could add extra weight to the negotiations leading up to the climate-change summit in Copenhagen next month, when leaders will attempt to come to an agreement on a successor to the Kyoto Protocol's limits on greenhouse-gas emissions. "Saving the planet cannot wait," reads the agency's annual World Energy Outlook report, which was released on Tuesday. "The time to act has arrived."
