Sunspots 177


Things I have recently spotted that may be of interest to someone else:




Science:
CNN reports that the Large Hadron Collider was successfully started up. Google memorialized the event with an icon for the day.

Unfortunately, one of our local TV stations turned this event into an "either God created or the Big Bang," news report, when, of course, God could have used the Big Bang. The news report had other serious flaws, such as pronouncing collider incorrectly, but maybe I'm the only one who really watched it. I hope so.

Computing:
Wired reports that iPhone users are unknowningly creating continuous, hacker-accessible photos of their activity on the device.

Christianity:
Ray Boltz, Contemporary Christian Musician ("I Pledge Allegiance to the Lamb," "Watch the Lamb") has "come out" as a homosexual, according to a Christianity Today blog.
