The Large Hadron Collider

The Large Hadron Collider project, which seeks to unravel time and the human molecular structure, has met with numerous problems, such as malfunctions to the hardware, but namely one of its chief scientists being arrested for ties to Al Qaeda. Yes, really. Some are questioning if the projects is doomed.

Time as the world knows it is fixed by God and as such is not moveable. Scientists need to find a balance between knowledge, experimentation and respect for the supernatural aspects of life, mysteries that should remain with God, as He sees fit.

Is the Large Hadron Collider Already Doomed by Fate?

Tom Goldman posted on 13 Rocktober 2009 0:49 am - A mind-blowing theory from two distinguished physicists speculates that the Large Hadron Collider may have been doomed from the beginning due to its very function.

The Large Hadron Collider is a particle accelerator that could be immensely useful to scientists for a variety of reasons, including the testing of hyperdrive theories. One primary focus of the giant machine has been the discovery of the Higgs Boson particle, an as of yet undiscovered or observed quantum component that is said to give mass to all particles, including itself. Holger Bech Nielsen, of the Niels Bohr Institute in Copenhagen, and Masao Ninomiya of the Yukawa Institute for Theoretical Physics in Kyoto, Japan, have theorized that the LHC could be doomed because of the possibility that it might actually create a Higgs Boson, which is rippling backwards through time to stop this from ever occurring.

Just when you thought this business with the LHC couldn't get any weirder/cooler, now we've thrown a little time travel into the mix. Before you write this theory off, keep in mind that many physicists believe the laws of physics are reversible. Einstein himself has said "For those of us who believe in physics, this separation between past, present and future is only an illusion."...

Finally, if Dr. Nielsen and Dr. Ninomiya's theory is correct, it could also explain why the DeLorean DMC-12 failed despite its sleek stainless steel body and awesome gull-wing doors. Clearly, we are not meant to go 88 miles per hour, leaving tire tracks of flame in our wake.

Scientist Dies Of Plague

A few months ago, the Judiciary Report wrote of the dangers of scientific lab work and contaminants that can kill researchers/scientists.

Professor Malcolm Casadaban

A few days ago, Professor Malcolm Casadaban, died while experimenting on a CDC approved sample of the Bubonic plague. Talk about taking your work home with you. One of four things happened:

1.) A contaminant got into his system via an unavoidable accident.

2.) A contaminant got into his system via not observing proper lab procedures and protocols.

3.) A contaminant got into his system via a third party.

4.) Hypotheses 1-3 are wrong.

Bacteria that causes the plague

September 19, 2009 (CHICAGO) (WLS) -- There was word Saturday that the death of a University of Chicago scientist may be linked to a bacteria that causes the plague.

The researcher, who died Sunday, studied the genetics of harmful bacteria, including a weakened strain of yersinia pestis.

The weakened strain does not require the safety precautions associated with working on virulent strains. The modified strain of "y-pestis" has been approved by the Centers for Disease Control for routine laboratory studies, and it is not known to cause illness in healthy adults.

Confirmed: Hal Turner Was A Paid Informant

Hal Turner

Two weeks ago, I wrote that blogger Hal Turner was not just an FBI informant, but a paid one. Yesterday, his lawyer confirmed in court what I alleged two weeks - Turner was on the FBI's payroll.

Some informants cut remuneration-free deals to stay out of prison, when the FBI catches them committing a crime. They do so with the proviso, they will avoid prison, in exchange for doing dirty work for the Bureau. However, some are paid informants, who receive tens of thousands of dollars.

And this ladies a gentlemen, is how the FBI is spending your tax dollars, lavishing it on lawbreakers.

But, then the FBI will take the stingy route, in obtaining certain types of valuable information, by illegally pulling wiretaps on scholars, scientists and journalists, when they want to unlawfully use law abiding citizens as informants, without their knowledge or permission, which is out of line.

Man accused of threatening judges was a paid informant for the FBI

August 11, 2009 - A lightning-rod Internet blogger and radio host out of New Jersey was a paid FBI informant, once turned over a silencer to the feds and even passed on information about a threat against President Obama.

But none of that is enough to get him out of jail now, a federal judge ruled Monday. U.S. District Judge Martin Ashman said Hal Turner -- accused of threatening to assault and murder three federal judges -- is still a danger to the community.

Ashman said the fact that Turner from his New Jersey prison cell managed to record and post on the Internet a telephone conversation that included the names of his arresting FBI agents "tells me something about the disposition of Mr. Turner."

Ashman denied Turner's request to have FBI agents testify at his bond hearing. Ashman's ruling came despite Monday's revelation by Turner's lawyers that the FBI paid Turner "tens of thousands of dollars" to work as an informant from 2002 to 2005. Last year, Turner told a U.S. marshal of a threat by someone to lob mortars into Grant Park during Obama's election celebration...
