...once has been able to find the Higgs boson in the stream of debris emitted when two particles are smashed together at high speeds. Scientists at another CERN particle collider, LEP, felt they came close before the accelerator shut down in 2000. Scientists using the Tevatron accelerator at Fermilab near Chicago are still hoping to publish a discovery before CERN starts analyzing data later this year. Higgs says he is 90% sure that the LHC will find it, but he doesn't have the final word. "With all respect to our theoretician friends, experiments find out the truth," explains Tejinder...
...need the opinion of Susan Schwab or Stephen Johnson - and yes, you get a gold star if you knew Bush's trade representative and EPA administrator. Big Cabinets leak; small coteries of aides who can't be compelled to testify before Congress are much better at keeping their mouths shut...

...tailspin continues. The Crimson (1-21, 0-6 Ivy) suffered its third straight doubleheader sweep to open the Ivy League campaign—its 14th and 15th consecutive losses overall—yesterday at O’Donnell Field, as visiting Penn (11-11-1, 2-5-1) shut it out over the course of 16 innings, taking the opener, 10-0, and the nightcap by a 5-0 final. At 0-6 in the Ivies, Harvard is already six games behind Rolfe Division leader Dartmouth (7-1) in the standings and could see that margin increase during a twinbill...
...even with Sundquist on board, student opinion is still largely shut out. The student body president can hardly be expected to represent the vast diversity of student views on the subject. I can only hope that Pfister meant what he wrote in an e-mail, that “We will be meeting with other groups hoping to cover the range of students and experiences that are represented in the community...
