The LHC is preparing to restart
The LHC is preparing to restart at almost double the collision energy of its previous run. The new energy will allow physicists to check previously untestable theories, and explore new frontiers in particle physics.
When the LHC is on, counter-rotating beams of particles will be made to collide at four interaction points 100 metres underground, around which sit the huge detectors ALICE, ATLAS, CMS and LHCb.
In the video above, engineers and technicians prepare these four detectors to receive the showers of particles that will be created in collisions at energies of 13 TeV. The giant endcaps of the ATLAS detector are back in position and the wheels of the CMS detector are moving it back into its "closed" configuration. The huge red door of the ALICE experiment is closed up ready for restart, and the access door to the LHC tunnel is sealed with concrete blocks.

DENMARK - One dead after shooting incident in Copenhagen
One civilian was killed and three police were wounded on Saturday in shooting at a public meeting in the Danish capital Copenhagen attended by the controversial Swedish artist Lars Vilks, police and the Danish Ritzau news agency reported.
Danish police confirmed one civilian had been killed in a shooting and said the suspects had fled in a car. Ritzau said both Vilks and the French ambassador, who was also attending, were both unharmed, but that three police had been wounded. The gathering was billed as a debate on art and blasphemy. Just over a month ago, 17 people were killed in France in three days of violence that began when two Islamist gunmen burst into the Paris offices of the satirical weekly Charlie Hebdo, opening fire in revenge for its publication of satirical images of the Prophet Mohammad.

Dopo la conquista da parte dell'Is di una stazione radio nella città di Sirte, l'ambasciata d'Italia a Tripoli ha dato indicazioni ai connazionali di lasciare "temporaneamente" la Libia. Lo si apprende alla Farnesina.
I jihadisti della filiale libica dello stato islamico (Is), infatti, hanno formalmente preso il controllo di Sirte, a 500 chilometri a est di Tripoli, tanto da istituire il loro quartier generale in un edificio nella zona centrale. Inoltre, un gruppo di appartenenti allo Stato Islamico ha fatto irruzione e assunto il controllo di Radio Sirte, una stazione radiofonica dell'omonima città costiera. La conferma viene da alcuni siti internet vicini ai jihadisti su cui sono state pubblicate foto in cui appaiono guerriglieri negli studi armati di kalashnikov.

Il ritrovamento è stato fatto in Grecia, nella zona del Peloponneso, e gli scheletri - secondo quanto si apprende da un comunicato del ministero della Cultura - sarebbero di un uomo e di una donna e risalirebbero a circa 6000 anni fa. La scoperta è stata fatta nella grotta di Diros e secondo gli archeologi che stanno lavorando nello scavo i due avrebbero vissuto nel 3800 avanti Cristo. "Le sepolture doppie e incrociate sono molto rare e quella di Diros è una delle più antiche rinvenute finora al mondo - si legge nel comunicato - nei pressi dello scavo anche le tombe di un bambino e di un feto, oltre a un ossario di circa 4 metri. Siamo abbastanza certi che questa zona sia servita come luogo di sepoltura per migliaia di anni" (afp)

Twitter in stile WhatsApp: chat private di gruppo e video da 30"Twitter in stile WhatsApp: chat private di gruppo e video da 30" (afp) La mossa dopo il recente sorpasso
Nuova rivoluzione per Twitter. Il popolare servizio di microblogging ha introdotto la possibilità di creare conversazioni private tra più utenti in contemporanea e quella girare, montare e pubblicare video di 30 secondi (il doppio di quanto consentito da Instagram) e inviarli a propri follower accantonando così l'applicazione Vine. Due modifiche che di fatto cambiano l'essenza del social stesso. La prima trasforma Twitter in qualcosa di simile a Whatsapp o Facebook Messenger, sempre però nel rispetto dei 140 caratteri compresi link ed emoticon. L'altra permetterà di allegare un filmato al messaggio senza dover passare per un collegamento esterno. Entrambe le novità verranno rese disponibili nei prossimi giorni, rende noto ufficialmente Twitter, precisando che la funzione video sarà abilitata prima sulle piattaforme iOS e in seguito alle altre.
