Catholic church plans to exhume Cardinal from next to his lifepartner um I mean really really really really good friend

Seems like those Victorian times were very confusing. Relationships between clergy that were as close as husband and wife, but completely *ahem* celibate.

Funny German Training Video

Beautiful Photos of the Large Hadron Collider

The Boston Globe has an amazing photo essay on the installation of the LHC. But don’t worry, CERN says that no black holes will be created, but if they did, any black holes that are created would disintegrate instantly, and even if they didn’t, they wouldn’t be positively charged so they couldn’t suck up the Earth. So in summary even if the LHC did manage to create a stable black hole it’d be a weeny one with very small effect on the Earth. Besides, the LHC is has the same potential of making bad stuff like black holes, strangelets, vacuum bubbles and magnetic monopoles than is being made in the universe anyway, but if it does happen, instead of it being millions of light years away, it’ll be in Switzerland where we can watch it easily. See? Safe!

Polygamist Gansta Rap
