A lawyer for the Republican National Committee today said the party will ask the Federal Election Commission to look into the source of thousands of small-dollar contributions to the presidential campaign of Sen. Barack Obama.The RNC is alleging that the Obama campaign was so hungry for donations it "looked the other way" as contributions piled up from suspicious, and possibly even illegal foreign

Everyone is scared. All the time. We wake up and ask us: ‘Will there be water left at the end of today?’, ‘Will terrorists bomb my tube later?’, ‘Will China and Russia attack as this evening?’, ‘Could Amy Winehouse make my kids start being addicted to drugs?’, ‘Does Gordon Brown try to put the bird flu virus in our tap water?’, ‘Will Sarah Palin really become vice president?

CERN fired their Large Hadron Collider (the most powerful atom-smasher ever and currently the world’s largest particle collider) yesterday but rest assured, no black holes that could devour race-based schools such as Tamil or Chinese schools (long live racism?) have been created or spotted so far. I wonder what CERN has learned from their first fire up. Anybody knows?

Black Holes & Revelations is the fourth studio album by English alternative rock band Muse, released on 3 July 2006. The album sold 115,144 copies in its first week in the UK, which was more than the first week sales of Muse's previous album, Absolution. The album is also a BPI double platinum album, and was nominated for a Mercury Prize. Five singles were released in the UK, of which three we

A composite image from NASA's Chandra X-ray Observatory (shown in purple) and Hubble Space Telescope (blue) shows the giant elliptical galaxy NGC 4649. By applying a new technique, scientists used Chandra data to measure the black hole at its center to be about 3.4 billion times more massive than the Sun. The value from this X-ray technique is consistent with a more traditional method using the

Fifteen countries are black holes in the World Wide Web. News is not free to circulate there. Reporters without borders - for Press Freedom. The Internet’s black holes are Belarus, Burma, China, Cuba, Iran, Libya, Maldives, Nepal, North Korea, Saudi Arabia, Syria, Tunisia, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan and Vietnam.

sciencehabit writes “New calculations suggest that black holes are not a one-way street. Anything that falls into them may eventually come out. The findings lend important support to quantum gravity, but fly in the face of Einsteinian relativity. They also support Stephen Hawking’s reluctant admission that information couldn’t be destroyed by black holes. Penn State [...]

You're trying to log on to a Web site and it's not working. You try again and again. But persistence doesn't pay off. The site you want is inexplicably, frustratingly, out of reach.The other computer might just be turned off, but the causes could be more mysterious. At any given moment, a proportion of computer traffic ends up being routed into information black holes. These are situations where a path between two computers does exist, but messages – a request to visit a Web site, an outgoing e-mail – get lost along the way.A University of Washington system named Hubble looks for these black holes and maps them on a Web site, providing an ever-changing constellation of the Internet's weak points. The Hubble map is posted at hubble.cs.washington.edu/, where visitors can view a map of pr

You're pounding the keyboard, double-clicking away, sighing and grumbling, but to no avail: That devilish little hourglass icon refuses to give way to the website you're trying to reach. Most internet users have encountered trouble reaching online destinations, but they often attribute the problem to their wireless network cutting out or a server momentarily going down. Sometimes, though, the prob

From "Homing in on Black Holes" (Smithsonian, April 2008):Without question, the Milky Way's black hole is the strangest thing in our galaxy—a three-dimensional cavity in space just ten times the physical size of our sun but with four million times the mass, a virtual bottomless pit from which nothing can escape. Every major galaxy, it turns out, has a black hole at its core. Now, for the first time, scientists have the chance to study the havoc these mind-boggling entities wreak. For the next decade, Keck astronomers will track thousands of stars caught in the gravity of the Milky Way's black hole. They will try to figure out how stars are born close to the black hole and how it distorts the fabric of space itself. "I find it amazing that we can see stars whipping around our galaxy's bla

Probably the toughest guys in the universe are the black holes. These objects have the capability to gobble up everything on their surroundings from plants to stars. In fact, the gravity from the black hole is so strong that not even light can escape it. But just like the planets wherein there are small planets [...]

by Jocelyn UyMANILA, Philippines -- Rather than be preoccupied with the flurry on Earth, 24-year-old Reinabelle Reyes has fostered a fascination for the bustle of outer space.She has feasted her eyes on the splendid Milky Way in the midnight sky of Chile, probed the Great Beyond from her Ivy League school, and unveiled some secrets of the heavens.It all began with a telescope her father gave her when she was 10."We set it up in our terrace and we got to see the craters of the moon. I guess from then I was destined to [study the universe]," Reyes told the Philippine Daily Inquirer, parent company of INQURER.net, in an interview via e-mail.A Ph.D. candidate at Princeton University in New Jersey, the Filipino astrophysicist was accorded the 'Chambliss Astronomy Achievement Student Award' at t

I worry about dying brain cells.I am no longer able to remember how to spell 'Tchaikovsky' but find that 'Schizophrenia' is a doddle. I have mislaid my encyclopedic knowledge of dinosaurs and my ability to match the correct face and name of Thomas the Tank Engine and his rabble. It's a losing battle. Meanwhile I struggle with Pokemon powers, pronunciation and other evolutions. NPR drifts into my auditory processing system about "twins," separated twins. I listen with my ears closed because the quips that I hear set off alarm bells:- their sense of loss and being incomplete.My working knowledge of twins is limited. I have friends who are twins. I have have friends who have twins. I have friends who have autistic twins both in real life and on line. When I had children of my own I wo

According to a new study, high energy cosmic rays take birth from the huge black holes.The nearby galaxies host the high energy cosmic rays. This cosmic rays are the most energetic particles discovered by human. Though scientists working so hard to know the specific reasons to originate a cosmic ray. Miguel Mostafa, physicist from the University of Utah, says that “Galaxies which host violent black holes” like to be the main origin of the cosmic rays._______________________________________________A study of $54 million places a view about the black holes. In this study, the black holes are considered to be the tightly packed objects with gravity,from which nothing can escape not even light. And it is also said that most of the galaxies contain black holes as it's core part. The research is made by A 17-nation collaboration used the Pierre Auger Observatory in Argentina, and will be published on November 9Th._________________________________________According to them, among the 27 m

  The bright dot near the center was seen to flicker and brighten dramatically for a few minutes. Many astronomers believe this provides additional evidence that a black hole does indeed reside at our Galaxy’s center. (Image courtesy of F. Baganoff, MIT as presented on NASA’s Astronomy Picture of the Day web site.) If theories of their existence are true, black holes are the most powerful force in the known physical universe. Many people are familiar with the term black hole, but few people actually know anything about them. A black hole forms as a result of a massive star running out of fuel to burn (Chaisson, 193). Once the star is no longer exerting outward force by burning off gases, it begins to collapse under it’s own intense, inward gravity (Chaisson, 193). It is like slowly letting the air out of a balloon. Once the star is compacted to a certain size, while it’s mass, or weight, remains the same, it’s gravity becomes so powerful that noth

If someone was to ask you what black holes are, could you give them the answer. For those of you who just want to have the simple explanation as to what a black hole is then read on. A black hole is formed when a massive star dies. We know that a star is just one massive fusion reactor, these stars are just a big ball of gas which is always trying to rip itself apart, but an intense gravitational field keeps the star stable. The core of the Star or sun is one huge fusion bomb which is trying to go off, but the gravitational forces offers a balance to keep the star from exploding, and it also defines the size of the star as well. But as the star starts to die, the nuclear fusion needed to keep things stable stop as the fuel needed has burnt itself out. This then starts of a chain reaction of events, the stars gravity starts to pull material inward, and this then compresses the core. As the core starts to compress things start to heat up, this then causes the star to go supernova. This

All About Black HolesThe anomalous black holes are concentrated areas of mass so immense, that the mammoth force of gravity denies anything within a certain area around it from passing. This area is called the event horizon of a black hole. We have given black holes their name because light inside the event horizon can never be seen by mankind, or any outside observer. We believe that black holes in space are created by the collapse of a red super giant star. As these stars reach the end of their lives, an imbalance of inward and outward pressure forces the star to collapse. Information on black holes is limited, though numerous schools of theory exist. We know black holes exist not because we can see them, but because of the impact they have on the space around them. Scientists like Karl Schwarzschild, Jayant Narlikar and Stephen Hawking have built upon ideas from Einstein and others to offer theories on black holes. And yet, they remain an enigma. Because extensive, proven black hole
