For the 10th year in a row, The Register was voted the website most likely to abuse the word “Boffin”.

a mass of more than 400 times that of the sun is streaming away from the quasar at a speed of 8,000 kilometers per second. 298,200 MPH, that's going to leave a mark when it hits something.

I’m confused. All I’ve ever heard is everything gets “sucked into” a black hole and nothing escapes. This article is about gynormous amounts of energy and basic elements being EJECTED from the black hole. Hunnh?!

Seems to me like they MIGHT be saying that the stuff from the quasar coming OUT is really the other side of a black hole.
We see black holes...someone on the other side sees a quasar, we see a quasar and the other guy sees a black hole.
Quasars are like the Universal garbage disposals!!

That ad would be considered pornographic today.

I grew up in the days of Burma Shave signs by the road.
We left our door unlocked at night.
If you saw a woman breast feeding her child in public, no one threw a fit about it, even if they were personally a bit irked.
Norman Rockwell stuff... long gone.
