The most interesting aspect of the continuing race among eight or ten (I’ve forgotten the number) GOP presidential contenders may be what has not happened. Contrary to early predictions, former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney has not wrapped up the nomination two years before the general presidential race scheduled for November 2012. Romney was working toward the GOP nomination even before he got into the race in 2008 – and then lost in the stretch to Arizona senator John McCain. While still governor in the very left-of-centre state of Massachusetts in 2007, Mitt, the son of former Michigan governor George Romney, carried out a breathtaking about-face in positioning himself for the Republican primaries. He moved across the political spectrum, from somewhere near Barack Obama on social issues, immigration and a state-run medical program, to what looks like a made-to-order right-wing position-package aimed at conservative primary voters...

Erwin Schrödinger: Nature and the Greeks
Brian Ridley
Erwin Schrödinger, Nobel Laureate, one of the founders of quantum theory, was born in Vienna in 1887 of mixed Austrian and English family. He is famous for his cat, which, according to quantum theory, can exist in a state that is both dead and alive. Schrödinger, even though he had invented the cat, naturally regarded this as nonsense, and joined Einstein in having grave doubts about quantum theory being an adequate theory of physics. In spite of its resounding success in predicting the results of measurements on sub-microscopic particles, in some cases to remarkable accuracy, unease about the theory persists to the present day... subscribe
