...larger and more mature looking than the primordial dwarf galaxies everyone assumed they would see. "It was unexpected," admits Mark Dickinson of the National Optical Astronomy Observatory, in Tucson, Ariz., who worked on the project. "But maybe it shouldn't have been." The theorists might have things all wrong. But it could also simply be that any population will have a few individuals that are way outside the average--humans who stand over 7 ft. tall, for example. They're very noticeable but not at all typical...
Einstein was wrong. So-called gravitational lenses have become a major factor in modern astronomy. They have revealed, among other things, the existence of tiny planets around stars thousands of light-years away and have created weird optical effects, including multiple images of faraway quasars. If you look at a massive cluster of galaxies, Ellis figured, you might see amplified images of more distant galaxies, too faint to be seen otherwise. So a year or two ago, he started aiming the Keck at galactic clusters, and along with Stark, he identified six candidate objects. To make certain that these were...
...under control through the political process, and said he did not anticipate a military push into Sadr City. "We don't want to create more problems," he said. "It's a very delicate situation." Spoken like a true politician, albeit one with a military background, who knows that the wrong choice of words can cause as much damage as a poorly executed battle plan...

There is every mechanism already available to the state to properly detect and detain and investigate. What is not just unacceptable, but plain wrong, is to say that a person suspected of terrorism deserves the rule book being torn up - basically a retreat to medieval rack and thumbscrew, and that's what Guantánamo is all about. Haven't the threats changed? These are simply not new problems. Every country has faced...

Redstone cited the actor's public comments defending Scientology and criticizing psychiatry. "As much as we like him personally, we thought it was wrong to renew his deal," Redstone is quoted as saying in the Journal...
