Extreme physical conditions have a way of bringing out the strangest behaviors that nature can muster. Just ask physicist John E. Thomas. Two years ago, he and his colleagues at Duke University in Durham, N.C., were working with intense lasers in a high-vacuum chamber at temperatures next to absolute zero. They were manipulating tiny clouds of lithium gas. When the scientists turned off the lasers, peculiar things began to happen. At first, the microscopic puff of lithium billowed out of the spot where the lasers had held it. But then, instead of expanding evenly in all directions, as any normal gas would, the lithium cloud morphed into a pancake. read full story / add a comment

The war on Iraq was illegal, fraudulent and has killed many tens of thousands of innocent people, and making this war is very probably a war crime. But the Americans commit war crimes every day in Iraq. One such war crime was the Haifa Street massacre, which occurred last week and which was televised. Jonathan Steele has courageously written a clear and insightful analysis of this massacre in today's edition of The Guardian. This posting examines Steele's position and asks why criticism of American war crimes in Iraq is so rare. read full story / add a comment

Former Socialist Workers Party national committee member David Isaacson has joined the CPGB. Tellingly, and not without self-criticism, he details how on the one hand the SWP leadership perpetuates itself, and how, on the other, it depoliticises and demotivates. The result is a not a party but a bureaucratic sect which must be fought from the inside and the out Many believe that the Socialist Workers Party is going through some kind of crisis. All the signs are there. Attendance at this summer’s Marxism was half that of the previous year. Membership figures cannot be great if Respect can only muster just over 3,000. Where are the 10,000 SWP members of old? East End Offset - the SWP’s printshop - has been sold off, presumably because of financial problems stemming from Respect’s election campaign. The election result itself was a disappointment. read full story / add a comment
