   I can try, but this is new territory for me, too.

   Some folks on Diaspora circulated screen captures of the new Facebook Android App permissions. The claim was that Facebook has now added the requirement that they have permission to read your SMS and MMS messages. I verified this claim by checking my own Facebook app permissions list. Facebook appears to claim this is needed for two-factor authentication (c.f. http://ur…

   This has been a very productive day. I've come to learn the woes of Next-to-next-to-leading order corrections to the production of single Higgs bosons via gluon fusion; I have come to understand the hidden dangers of filters applied during the generation of Monte Carlo simulation events; and I am scheming to process some data and see if this crazy stupid idea I've been …

    Greetings from CERN . . . specifically, from CERN Restaurant 1. I arrived late from Heathrow due to problems with the front landing gear of our plane (detected before takeoff, just to be clear!). I had to grab a bunch of stuff from my office (toiletries, etc.), then check into the CERN hostel. To help with the jet lag, I went for a 30 minute run to help get my brain mov…

    Breezed through security at Heathrow; this left me with time for a coffee and a light breakfast! What has Heathrow come to?

    While on my flight to Heathrow, I re-listened to TINAP #9, "The Price of Aberystwyth," with guest @Evan Prodromou. This has to be one of my favorite podcast episodes. I think part of it is the genuine surprise of the existence of a pump.io song. http://notapodcast.co.uk/post/57337280889/9-the-prince-of-aberystwyth

    Boarded! I will start blathering again on social media when I get to CERN, get in a run, and settle in my room at the hostel.

    For those of you with, like, literally nothing to do, you can track my flight on FlightAware. My flight is AA50.

    Flight delayed by about 25 minutes. Not the first time, not the worst time. :-)
