There is a short stack of Physics Today magazines under the Kuerig coffee brewer at work so I've been glancing through the article headlines lately.
One might think that Physics Today has lots of physics and Astrophysics material and would only cover those topics but nope. There is an article on how E. Coli expresses itself. --ok maybe that can be physics and not just biology. Carbon in the soil? Really this is physics? Modeling Crime Hot Spots. Seriously you are not calling yourself Mathematica Journal or Statistics Today; how in the wide wide world of sports does modeling crime pertain to Physics? Call me an old FUDDY DUDDY (dam autocorrect for making me put that in all caps) but writing a model to describe crime is not physics and unless they change the name to Physics and Statistic Methods Today such an article just does not belong. When even the physicists are churning out papers and articles on AGW and social science crap trying to curry favor with the drones who hand out that sweet sweet grant money from uncle Sugar, it feels like a bad portent.
