People, explode the LHC!

What is better: to nuke the LHC and CERNs headquarters, or to let the
CERN to explode the Earth and throw out all of us into cosmos, as
seeds of new civilizations?

"Osama bin Laden, please, give me a plane and couple of nuclear bombs.
I’ll drop the first bomb at LHC and the second on the CERNs
headquarters. Otherwise, we all will die because CERN want to create
the magnetic trap of Devil."

Magnetic trap is 10^36 times stronger than black hole. People open the
criminal cases against global terrorists.

What will LHC give us: the particle of God, or magnetic trap of Devil.
Magnetic trap is an axial-symmetric magnetic analogue of a black hole.
It is 10^36 stronger than gravitational black hole.
If microscopic magnetic trap will be made in CERN’s LHC, the Earth
will be transformed into an infinitely thin emptiness, surrounded by
circular current of 6 meter radius. Compare: Schwarzschild radius of
such mass is 0,009 meters.

Only crazy people can try to create particles with the rest mass more
then 1000 masses of nucleon. Hundreds types of particles can be
created in the region 1000-7000 aum. Most of them will decay, but some
will grow, capturing the ordinary matter. Arrant big-bangers want to
touch the particle of God, but thus, they lead us into the magnetic
trap of Devil.

Stop Tevatron and close the LHC.

Collision energies and bombs:
Several eV – chemical bomb;
Several MeV – nuclear bomb;
Several TeV – hyper bomb. (Example: SN 1987A)

Chemical bomb – change in chemical structure of matter.
Nuclear bomb – change in nuclear structure of matter.
Hyper bomb – transformation of matter into field mc^2 — > LI^2.

What is Higgs boson?
Mass creating particle of God, or mass destructing magnetic trap of
Devil?

Idiots say: nucleon consists from three quarks.
I say: nucleon has three poles.

Idiots say: electron is particle with classic radius, r.
I say: electron is a string (quasi-closed circumference), covering all
Universe. In order to “run along this whole string” electron spends
its classic time, t = 2 pi r / c.

Idiots imagine quark-gluon plasma, as peas in a poke.
I say – idiots, such imagination will lead us to global catastrophe.

What is better: to nuke the LHC and CERNs headquarters, or to let the
CERN to explode the Earth and throw out all of us into cosmos, as
seeds of new civilizations?

Definition of a A Veteran

Definition of a A Veteran
http://www.amervets.com/mypride/whatvet.htm

A veteran is defined by federal law, moral code and military service as "Any,
Any, Any"… A military veteran is Any person who served for Any length of time
in Any military service branch. [See #1 and #2, below]

What is a War Veteran?

A war veteran is any GI (Government Issue) ordered to foreign soil or waters to
participate in direct or support activity against an enemy. The operant
condition: Any GI sent in harm’s way.

What is a Combat Veteran?

A combat veteran is any GI who experiences any level of hostility for any
duration resulting from offensive, defensive or friendly fire military action
involving a real or perceived enemy in any pre- or post-designated theater of
combat (war) operations. [See #3, below]

NOTE:

1. Veteran’s benefits are based on Congressional regulations determined by
Honorable Discharge or Under Honorable Conditions status.

2. Retirees (either 20+ years service or medical discharge status) are also
Veterans. Retirees are usually eligible for supplementary federal benefits,
privileges and access on military installations, but not necessarily all VA
services (some services are maintained by the former military branch), as
regulated by Congress.

3. Wartime medals define various levels of individual combat involvement,
sacrifice and/or valor: http://www.amervets.com/isr.htm

4. (Ret.) or (Retired) may be used by any veteran when stating or publishing his
or her rank to indicate they are not on the active list.

Does the Smithsonian really have a V-2 (Nazi rocket) on display?

Does the Smithsonian really have a V-2 rocket on display as shown by
the Spielberg preview?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y-FxWtjkb3I

The yellow & black vice versa color pattern on the rocket is the V-2
if I’m not mistaken. Is that really in the museum?

Nuking P-47s; Operation Tumbler/Snapper

Actually, I was more impressed with the footage of the B-17 getting
torn apart by the blast.  The larger aircraft appear more damaged
(broken backs, etc.) but I suppose all of the airframes were destroyed
by the shock wave – whether its 99% or 100%, every one looks totalled.

Friendly Fire Notebook

Friendly Fire Notebook

An effort has begun to collect and preserve the details of every friendly fire
incident that took or changed the lives of American soldiers.

Since the Revolutionary War thousands upon thousands of military personnel have
been injured or killed due to mistaken or intentional, American friendly fire.

All are invited to participate in this project. For more information
