APNewsBreak: Proof of 'God particle' found

I’m glad to see that there is mounting evidence for the Higgs Boson, but I still dislike the tendency of the AP Science journalists to inflate the news.

**EDIT: I’m happy to see that they’ve changed the title of the article on the AP website to “EVIDENCE of ‘God Particle’ found”. I’ve not changed it from the reblog. I’d also rather they not use that pejorative nickname, though.**

Anyway, go CERN!

This is turning into a series of minirants: If only the US still funded fundamental scientific inquiry without necessitating it be tied to the military-industrial complex perhaps they would have made it there first. What a shame.
