'The place is England. The year is 1928.'
What is antimatter and why does it matter?. The place is England. The year is 1928. One of the founding theorists of quantum mechanics, Paul Dirac, is scratching his head because solutions to his equations have yielded unexpected results. For the solutions to make sense, he reasons, there must be a particle that has the mass of an electron but the opposite charge. At the time, such a thing was not known to exist. [Physics Org]

The M's
M's sign to Polyvinyl, (finally) announce follow-up to their debut.. This just in:
Critically lauded Chicago quartet, The M's, have just signed to the Champaign, IL-based record label, Polyvinyl Records. The M's will release their much-anticipated, yet-to-be-titled sophomore release this spring, with a tour to follow.
The M's forthcoming release for Polyvinyl will hit stores in early 2006. The new album, recorded this summer at Chicago's Semaphone Studio, says Hicks, is "a definite departure from the first. It's a bit more serious in tone."
It's about freaking time. While I like the M's quite a bit it's been a really long time since they're produced anything new (and their lackluster Intonation performance) had me worried. Since the Brilliante debut was basically three EPs packaged as a single LP I'm dying to hear what a more cohesive and singly thought out offering will sound like.
It's time for them to step up to the plate and deliver on the "Most Promising New Band" status they've been riding for the last two years. I'm personally rooting for them to knock it out of the park.
