Physics for the snowbound

This week marks the fifth time in my 21 years of teaching that I have had an entire week of school cancelled due to weather and snow. We have about 26 inches (66 cm) of snow outside and it has made the roads treacherous and now the sidewalks are impassible. And now I have heard that tomorrow (Friday) will be our fifth day in a row of no school. So that means that our planned snow days are used, and any more days off will have to made up. Hmm.

At least the internet works! 

Babylonian mathematics was 1500 years ahead of others.

Archival film footage from CERN from 1961!

And finally, Quantum physics themed short stories. They are actually quite good - check them out.
