The European Council for Nuclear Research (CERN) and Polish NCBJ cooperation agreement extended
Geneva, Switzerland - April 20, 2016 - Today, Professor Krzysztof Kurek, NCBJ Director General, and Dr. Frédérick Bordry, CERN Director for Accelerator Technologies, signed an agreement on future CERN/NCBJ cooperation. Particular emphasis was put on further R&D works aimed to improve performance of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) accelerator. The agreement has set a framework for further NCBJ/CERN cooperation. By virtue of the agreement Świerk scientists/technicians shall be engaged more actively not only in CERN scientific endeavours, but also in R&D works aimed to improve LHC performance. The two year-long break in operation (2013-2015) was used to fix some key LHC elements and to improve its overall performance. Every orbit-controlling superconducting magnet has been tested, some of them have been replaced. A new cryogenic system supplying the magnets has been developed and constructed. A safer vacuum system, better solutions capable to focus particle beams and to boost particle energy, and better radiation-resistant electronic circuitry have been implemented. Since LHC is a very complicated machine, the works had to be conducted very accurately. Nothing strange that a number of high-class experts in various fields were involved, and the work were time-consuming. Polish groups actively participated in works of the experts.

Prof. Robert Gwiazdowski: Chcę do raju
Warszawa - 06 kwietnia 2016 - Trafić do oazy podatkowej wcale nie jest łatwo. Trzeba sporo zarabiać. Małych firm na schronienie się w oazie najzwyczajniej nie stać. A na duże spadają gromy, że nie powinni z nich korzystać, bo przecież zarabiają wystarczająco dużo, by płacić wysokie podatki. Ale zanim stały się duże, były małe, a potem średnie. I często, dlatego że trafiły do oazy, mogły stać się dużymi. Dlaczego wówczas miałyby zmieniać swoje modele biznesowe? Jedynym sposobem na rozwiązanie problemu rajów podatkowych jest pozwolenie małym i średnim na bogacenie się w swoich własnych krajach - wtedy nie będą musieli nigdzie uciekać. Zróbmy raj na całym świecie.

Walter Isaacson: These Are the Two Original Sins of the Internet - And Now's the Time to Fix Them
LinkedIn - March 19, 2016 - The good thing, especially with the advent of the web, was that anybody, anywhere got to publish anything they wanted and had access to any information anybody else published. In the real world we spend most of our time in places where we know who we are talking to and dealing with; we should have that same option on the Internet. Journalism isn't broken. What's broken is the business model for journalism. For 500 years, technology has increased the spread of ideas and the empowerment of individuals. This has bent the arc of history towards freedom, individual empowerment, and democracy. I'm convinced that this will also be true for the next 500 years. But it'll be up to those in journalism today to rectify some of the mistakes made by people in my generation.
