Even scientists still need captions sometimes. Generally the audience for a paper is slightly wider than the set of people intimately familiar with your particular experimental techniques, and formatting and display conventions do vary between different people and different labs. That said, I know nothing of this field so maybe this set-up is standard enough that anyone professionally interested in it does recognize it on sight.
The summary isn't detailed enough to bring this up, but TFA tries to equate supersymmetry with dark matter, which is emphatically wrong. The existence of dark matter is strongly supported by astronomical evidence including galaxy rotation velocities and observations of gravitational lensing, regardless of the nature of the particles that make it up. Even if this result provides evidence against supersymmetry (which doesn't seem to be the conclusion of other articles I've read, although I'm not really qualified to say), it tells us absolutely nothing about dark matter.
I wouldn'r bet against Musk on feasability, true, but his timing estimates have always been suspect. There's a joke that you should add a factor of 2 (at least) to the wait time for any SpaceX launch date.
I wanted to ping a friend who uses bing to see if there was a microsoft alternative, but I couldn't remember how. I had to bing my friend who knows ping so I could ask him for help.
I agree! Also, my glorious vhs movie collection will never be made obsolete by the introduction of new media formats, because why would the industry ever change away from such a dominant format?

Since we're talking about fantasy animals, is Dr. Melba S. Ketchum related to a certain Ash?

Maybe they just need to hire more cute flight attendants!

Yes she just moved to a new home, but Enterprise has been a museum piece for over 25 years.
It's been longer than 10 years. Have you already forgotten Bush v. Gore?
Slow down, some people are into that!
Everyone else seems to trust that the wisdom of crowds will correct things, so I figure I might as well too.
If I point out that I liked the site better in past years, am I a pedophile in this metaphor?
If it's not patent-protected, will anyone take the financial risk to produce it in large quantities?

Not many obstacles, but there's one really big one. And on landing, you're not tring to avoid it, but have to hit it just right.
Often, particularly in a state that skews heavily toward one party or the other, all it takes to keep an incumbent in office is inertia.
Is that "mail IT to unsuspecting americans"? Interesting use for a mobile data center...

"'Quote', speaker says" is pretty standard English syntax...
Seconded. The idea of them playing by our rules is almost as laughable as us playing by theirs.
Now I can't make my own snarky comment about it!
RTFS, dude. "Besides Earth" is right there next to gp's quote.
That said, even after blowing up the SOPA death star I'm worried about the Empire striking back.
Frankly, if the coss per weight was low enough that I could pay only $35 per bag to go into space I'd be there in a heartbeat.
That was mostly (but not entirely) true in season 1. Season 2 has had a somewhat looser take on the adaptation.
Doesn't HBO give you access to an on-demand service for this very reason? Or do you have to pay extra for that?
Hmm. I wonder if this is why the industry keeps pushing cloud computing...
