October 26, 2009 - I just heard that the
LHC is being tested with particles again for the first time since last year's malfunction. Could we hope that some new physics results will follow soon?
October 12, 2009 - HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
October 7, 2009 - I just want to let my physics & astronomy friends and colleague know there is a site for helping to classify galaxies from the SDSS survey. The link is

October 3, 2009 - It looks like I will be spending the entire weekend cleaning my patio - which means relocating my entire bonsai collection for the rest of the month. All because the house is being re-roofed...
September 8,2009 - Just a quick reminder that now that classes are back in session, I am available for tutoring physics and math at any level, as well as chemistry and engineering at the undergraduate level. However this term I have a busy schedule with other jobs as well, so appointments are limited and will be first-come-first-served.
September 7. 2009 - There was an interesting
new result released by the BELLE experiment. In the decay of a B-meson to an excited Kaon and leptons, there is an angular asymmetry not predicted by the Standard Model of particle physics. It could be the first sign of some interesting new physics, or it could be an experimental anomaly that means nothing. Only time and more data will tell for sure...
