Something isn’t quite right here…
I luv old people!
Mr. Veteran came to the clinic for a follow-up visit after a surgery…
Me: How’s your memory?
Mr. V: Doc, my memory is as short as my dick!
Me: Soooo… Is that a good thing or bad thing?
I realize this is anecdotal evidence, but if this isn’t a cry for healthcare reform in the US, then I don’t know what is. I’m not sure why some people keep insisting we have the best healthcare in the world…
Heh. I totally thought the Radar Tumblr thing was showing us liver biopsies at first! :)
‘Clumpy’ universe may force rethinking of cosmology
The universe appears to be clumpier than astronomers expected, according to the largest galaxy survey to date. The extra clumps could call for a redesign of the standard model of cosmology, and maybe a new understanding of how gravity works.
“Maybe on very large scales, Einstein’s general relativity is slightly wrong,” said cosmologist Shaun Thomas of University College London, lead author of a new paper in Physical Review Letters. “This potentially could be one of the first signs that something peculiar is going on.”
When viewed close up, the matter in the universe bunches up into stars, galaxies and galaxy clusters. But as you zoom out, cosmologists expect the universe to look more and more smooth, sort of the way details in an earthly landscape blend together when viewed from an airplane.
