Net neutrality takes a hit from former proponent Google (everybody panic!)

Wired has a great explanation of how the Google-Verizon announcement betrays Google's "don't be evil" motto.

Time travel

Will someone explain this to me: Quantum Time Machine Lets You Travel to the Past Without Fear of Grandfather Paradox? Thanks.

My current favorite flikr set
