Well @GVA_ch@eurowings I bought 5 @CERN@Toblerone bars as gifts for our German partners here at the Kimiko festival only to arrive at the hotel and take out the bag and find someone decided to open my case and devour half of one,
Not cool at all.
Thanks to the Foundation, @CERN and TheBigBangCollective will be producing FIVE Science Pavilions in 5 different European music festivals this year-taking science to where the people are. This will be a great talk from a great team. #physics#scienceoutreach#STEM#sponsorship
Mr. President: Instead of stealing Greenland from Denmark, I have a better idea.
In Denmark, everyone is guaranteed health care, college education is free, parents receive 1-year of paid paternity leave & workers don’t make less than $22 an hour.
Let's steal those ideas.
In Iran, a woman who was accosted by the “morality police” for not wearing hijab removes her clothing & roams the streets in defiance. She has since been arrested by IRGC forces and forcibly disappeared. This is the brave face of true resistance.

CERN may be 70 years old, but it’s not too old for a music festival 🥳 #CERN70
Today’s #PhotoOfTheWeek brings you to four European music festivals CERN was present at during this summer: WOMAD, Colours of Ostrava, Smukfest and Rototom.
Between the World of Physics, the Big Bang stage, the Science Pavilion and the Discovery Lab, respectively, CERN personnel were able to connect with other science enthusiasts one musical note at a time.

Finally at 21h15 an angel appeared in the form of Ryan MacMillan @TheAA_UK with 2 temp. tyres-we then drove 1 hour to a fab mobile tyre service. @TheAA_UK Ryan deserves a bonus 🥇he’d finished his shift at 21h but got home past midnight #scotland#NC500@InvTouristBoard@STVNews
50 minute queue for the bus @BristolAirport to get to the @avis car rental centre. Over 40 people waiting. Smart idea to put a traffic light on roundabout at airport Bristol Road management - locals say it’s crazy. Now waiting 24 minutes so far to get out !!!@BristolLive @BBCRB
Looking forward to welcoming esteemed journalists @spenley@DanielStach alongside @MatthewChalme13 Sarah Demers & Paris Sphicas for an important discussion on how vital it is for the future that more colleagues engage in science outreach & communication #ICHEP2024@ichep2020
