Quantum Graininess Test Results BUST Space `Plank' Limits

Quantum mechanics suggests that `space' itself has a `lower limit' as to `size' (Planck size) and that at that point - space itself breaks into grains (ie, is not continuous) --- well, it turns out that the `smoothness' goes down into levels that is ruling out some theories regarding some string theories and quantum loop gravity theories ---- according to this link - a TAL special - http://www.physorg.com/news/2011-06-physics-einstein.html

Santa brought R2 to my 6 year old son this Christmas. My son takes this robot with him everywhere. I was concerned that he would lose interest after a few days, but he spends the majority of his day playing with R2. The entire family has enjoyed giving him various commands and in addition to the commands listed in the Command Guide, R2 has some advanced commands (sometimes known as Easter Eggs) built in that we found on the HASBRO website.

Homo floresiensis and Orang Pendek Related?

The near human mysteries continue as this article points out that the Homo Floresiensis supposedly was seen within the last century (hmmm) - and, the ever elusive Orang Pendek - that sounds more and more like Bigfoot to me almost each time I read about it. - http://www.theparanomalist.com/3318/homo-floresiensis-and-orang-pendek-related/ from John Carlson's great blog with tons of content.

The One-Second War

Remember leap seconds? Well, here's an interesting article about the little Y2K effect that they produce - including significant costs for the hour preceding and after - for the military.

The ancient Earth should have frozen to death billions of years ago

This article is a fun read for the logic of it. That said, the very compelling comments make one wonder why the article was written at all - http://io9.com/5808616/the-ancient-earth-should-have-frozen-to-death-billions-of-years-ago - the crux of it all is that two theories to explain water 3.5 billion years ago have fallen flat.

Moving Mirrors Make Light From `NOTHING'

I love this article. Seems that by moving a `mirror' (not really but an effect that produces a reflective surface) at about 5% the speed of light - that a group of scientists were able to: (tease)
The result was a shower of microwave photons shaken loose from the vacuum, the team claims. The group's analysis shows that the frequency of the photons was roughly half the frequency at which they wiggled the mirror — as was predicted by quantum theory.
