God particle signal is simulated as sound 23 June 2010Last updated at 00:25 By Pallab Ghosh Science correspondent, BBC News The Higgs boson particle is thought to give all others their mass Scientists have simulated the sounds set to be made by sub-atomic particles such as the Higgs boson when they are produced at the Large Hadron Collider. Their aim is to develop a means for physicists at Cern to "listen to the data" and pick out the Higgs particle if and when they finally detect it. Dr Lily Asquith modelled data from the giant Atlas experiment at the LHC. She worked with sound engineers to convert data expected from collisions at the LHC into sounds. "If the energy is close to you, you will hear a low pitch and if it's further away you hear a higher pitch," the particle physicist told BBC News. "If it's lots of energy it will be louder and if it's just a bit of energy it will be quieter." The £6bn LHC machine on the Swiss-French border is designed to shed light on fundamental questions in physics.

48 Examples of Excellent Layout in Web Design Beautiful graphics and colors are great and play a big part in web design, but most would agree that the backbone of a solid user experience is the layout. After all, what good is all of the eye candy if one can not easily read and digest the content. There is nothing better than opening a perfectly organized and readable website – a page where the layout invites you to browse the site’s content. There are several ways to organize and put together a nice layout for your website, and here we’ll show some examples of sites that use grids, columns and blocks to showcase their content.

Googenheim: YouTube + Guggenheim One more old-school wall — the bricks and mortar of the rarified museum world — have been scaled by digital media. Google's YouTube and the Guggenheim are collaborating on YouTube Play, the first biennial event seeking the world's most creative videos, by inviting “innovative work from unexpected sources.” The prestigious Solomon R. Guggenheim Foundation will showcase unknown artists’ work at all four of the foundation’s museums in October: the Deutsche Guggenheim in Berlin, the Guggenheim Bilbao in Spain, the Peggy Guggenheim Collection in Venice, and the Solomon R. Guggenheim in New York. It will appeal to creatives, naturally, but "anyone can play" and submit their work. Nancy Spector, the Guggenheim's deputy director and chief curator, tells the New York Times, “People who may not have access to the art world will have a chance to have their work recognized. Submitted works can be 10 minutes maximum length and no older than two years, and must be submitted on or before July 31.
FIFA is Sorry About Bad Ref Calls, Will Reconsider Using Video Technology For continuous World Cup coverage, check out Mashable's 2010 World Cup Hub, which will be updated throughout the games. Everyone that watched Sunday's World Cup match between England and Germany on TV saw that Frank Lampard scored a goal — everyone except the referee, and thus England was denied the goal. That call, together with another bad call later that day when the referee missed a clear offside when Argentina took the lead against Mexico, spurred a heated debate about using technology to aid the refs in football games. FIFA, the authority that regulates the World Cup tournament, was until now quite adamant about keeping technology out of the football field. A solution that's often touted by those in support of technological aid allows refs to see video reviews of questionable situations. What do you think: Should FIFA finally let video technology help football refs make their decisions?

Have you ever had the thought, "I'm not creative. I can't even draw a straight line"? If so, you're not alone. Many people think that there is some essential relationship between creativity and the ability to make art. Why, when creativity is our very birthright, do so few of us feel creative? Psychologist Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi, author of Creativity: Flow and the Psychology of Discovery and Invention, says that creativity doesn't happen in our heads but in the interaction between our imagination and our social context. The world is not divided into two groups of the creative and the uncreative. Personal creativity is not about intelligence or information.
