Dino-Chicken? Why not!

This made me laugh so hard! Then again, it might prove to work, so my laughter could be premature :D

All I can say is, the people over @LiveScience thought about something doable with today's scientific knowledge. And the answer is the Dino-chicken! In post-modern science, chicken eats you!

Oh, you know what would be really cool? If they would use an ostrige or an emu, this way the chances of mayhem ensuig are highly increased. ;)

Look closely and you'll find an easter egg in the picture.

Can science turn back the clock on evolution to make a chicken into a dinosaur? Find out in this incredible LiveScience infographic.

What Exactly Does the Higgs Boson?

Now that's the trillion dollar question! Or more. Maybe we can't even quantify it in money.

The Higgs boson, ever since its discovery by Peter Higgs, has haunted the physics world and not only, because the implications of its discovery vye from the world of physics and reach into the domain of spirituality (a favourite subject of mine). If proven to exist, the Higgs boson will confirm the big bang theory (not the famed TV series, the real thing) and therefore disprove the existence of a creator. Hence, its nickname, "the god particle". This scares the hell out of all believers. Probably others too.

Below you can find an infograph that explains in layman terms what is the Higgs boson and what does it do. Very interesting stuff, I must say. And funny. :)

 

Physicists have searched for it for years, but what is the Higgs boson supposed to do, exactly? A LiveScience infographic explains.
