More than one million in U.S. still without power five days after storm | Reuters

More than 1 million homes and businesses in a swath from Indiana to Virginia remained without power on Wednesday, five days after deadly storms tore through the region.
The outage meant no July 4 Independence Day holiday for thousands of utility workers who scrambled to restore lingering power outages.
Much of the damage to the power grid was blamed on last weekend's rare "derecho," a big, powerful and long-lasting wind storm that blew from the Midwest to the Atlantic Ocean.

Something like the Higgs boson has been found – probably,

It seems that the search for the Higgs boson – also known as "not the God particle" – might be, if not over, moving into its next phase. An apparently leaked video from Cern - I say leaked, because it seems to be dated tomorrow – shows Joe Incandela, a spokesman for one of the experiments at the Large Hadron Colider, saying "We've observed a new particle". It's in the place they expected to find the Standard Model Higgs, but for the time being they don't know whether it is or if it's something unexpected

EXCLUSIVE: Murfreesboro Mega-Mosque proselytizing in public school curriculum - Atlas Shrugs

Abdou Kattih of the Islamic Center of Murfreesboro is ordering the taxpayer funded school conform to Islamic Law in the following ways:
- Men and boys are always to be covered from the navel to the knee in public.
- Muslim females are required to wear loose-fitting and non-revealing clothing which includes a head covering.
- Some of the five prayers may fall within regular school hours. It takes less than 15 minutes to accomplish the prayer. It includes:

• Washing: Before the prayer, Muslims perform a simple wash with clean water. This is normally performed in the restroom sink.
• Prayer space and Time: During the prayer, the Muslim will stand, bow, and touch the forehead to the ground. This may be performed in any quite, clean room. Total privacy is not required.
• Attention: During the prayer, Muslims are fully engaged and they may not respond to a conversation. Students and teachers should not take offense of the worshiper not answering their call. However, in case of an emergency, the Muslim will respond to an announcement by stopping the prayer immediately.

 - Fasting students may ask to use the library instead of the cafeteria during lunch. Also they may ask to be excused from strenuous physical activities during fasting.
- Muslim boys and girls may not take same-sex communal after-sports showers without wearing appropriate covering on their bodies.
- Close contact with local Islamic centers is essential to encourage input from the Muslim community.
- In Islam, Friday is the day for the congregational worship, called Jumaha. It is an obligation that must be fulfilled, and it lasts about one hour.
- Textbooks that contribute to religious prejudice are not suitable.
- Qualified Muslim educators should participate in the textbook selection process, particularly for history, social studies and geography texts.
