I don't want to scare you now, but our greatest minds work in teams. At the top are the Theorists, accompanied by mathematicians, surrounded by interns, funded by corporations, ... and so on.

I would have been a Physicist except I couldn't handle the math.

Physics: What We Do and Don’t Know by Steven Weinberg | The New York Review of Books: EXCERPT  | "... "So far, this anthropic speculation seems to provide the only explanation of the observed value of the dark energy. In the standard model and all other known quantum field theories, the dark energy is just a constant of nature. It could have any value. If we didn't know any better we might expect the density of dark energy to be similar to the energy densities typical of elementary particle physics, such as the energy density in an atomic nucleus. But then the universe would have expanded so rapidly that no galaxies or stars or planets could have formed. For life to evolve, the dark energy could not be much larger than the value we observe, and there is no reason for it to be any smaller.

Such crude anthropic explanations are not what we have hoped for in physics, but they may have to content us. Physical science has historically progressed not only by finding precise explanations of natural phenomena, but also by discovering what sorts of things can be precisely explained. These may be fewer than we had thought. (LINK) ..."

MooPig Physical Science Department is a windowless room in our basement, where few seldom go. Think about it; your kid grows up and is stellar in his math and language skills, goes through college like a hot butter knife, then tells you he wants to be a Physicist. eh?

It's like telling your dad who pours concrete for a living that you want to become a cloistered monk. One time I told my Dad I wanted to become a psychiatrist. That went over like Katrina with Dad.

When discussing cosmology and theory of Everything, I read about "teams of Physicists." so we Google, and search Reddit, for "Teams of Physicists," with this result: " ...team of theoretical physicists led by researchers from the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory and Stanford University .... "

You know where I'm going with this, don't you? I want to know who is the left tackle and the pulling guard on the team. I want a breakdown on various conferences and bowl games schedules. I want, want, want ... to know who the team members are! Don't you want to know?

The question is how long until football references are used to describe breaking developments in Physics, by teams of Physicists? I want to know how to play Fantasy Physics. If only we could pick and choose our teams and pit them against each other.

Chasing the Higgs Boson: "... At the Large Hadron Collider near Geneva, two armies of scientists struggled to close in on physics' most elusive particle. (DENNIS OVERBYE. Published March 5, 2013. LINK) ..."

TWO ARMIES of scientists ... Aha! There's your reference to Armies! That'll work. But the question remains: for Physics, Cosmology, and Anthropic events to be trending at the top of Newsvine's will need more than some sports references in their jargon. Let's all get behind that.

WOW ... I really strayed there. Sorry 'bout that.

CONCLUSION
The rigors that bring society all its consumable products and tech's is found in the work of teams of physicists. Isn't it about time for John Q Internet to have a good source of what these teams are up to? If Physical Science wants to expand its views to include the improvement of the human condition it might have to loosen up its hard line math models and include some sports references to its viewpoints.

Does anyone like Riddles? We of MooPig do:
Who retains the upper hand,
Forbes magazine says she is the 12th richest woman in showbusiness,
and the highest earning Mouseketeer,
with a net worth of $100m (£54.1m)... Who is She?

The 2000s saw the rise of the Real Slim Shady, the hottest girl-on-girl pop torch-passing ever, and a young member of Destiny's Child go solo -- and stratospheric. [SOURCE]

2000: ...safely through the transition of Y2K, ... music charts dominated by the all-growed-up grads of "The New Mickey Mouse Club," including Britney Spears --"Oops! ... I Did It Again", Christina Aguilera her first Latin album, "Mi ... moreReflejo", and Justin Timberlake then in *NSYNC, "No Strings Attached" and "Bye Bye Bye".

Miss Aguilera took her manager Steve Kurtz to court in 2000, claiming he had exercised "improper, undue and inappropriate influence" over her personal and professional activities.

Young Master Justin Timberlake had pulled off a similar coup a year earlier, splitting from svengali Lou Pearlman after a lengthy court battle.

While Aguilera and Timberlake fought for control of their careers, Miss Britney Spears was going from strength to strength.

Britney's second album, Ooops I Did It Again, won plaudits from rock bibles Rolling Stone and the NME and went to number one on both sides of the Atlantic.

As Britney Spears kept up the pace on the pop treadmill, Timberlake - now her boyfriend - was making his next move. [SOURCE]

Meanwhile, Timberlake had split with both *NSync and Spears to launch his solo career.

His friendship with the Neptunes paid off when he was offered a handful of demos that had been rejected by Michael Jackson.

Securing the services of cutting-edge hip-hop producers the Neptunes, Timberlake shocked *NSync fans with the R and B-flavoured single Girlfriend.

Aguilera was also branching out, enlisting former 4 Non Blondes singer Linda Perry to help her write Beautiful, the key track on her confessional Stripped album.

Spears also saw the need to take musical risks, but had to be careful not to alienate her teen audience.

For Timberlake, the songs [from Neptune] formed the basis of his debut album, Justified, with single Cry Me A River gaining the most attention. Many assumed it was about his relationship with Spears, and the implication in the lyrics that she had cheated on him fuelled gossip columns for months.

But the end of Spears' relationship with Timberlake seemed to coincide with the start of her decline.

Spears has sold more than 50 million albums :: but ... She tarnished her image as a teenage role model by admitting she had lost her virginity and enjoyed smoking. [Read more HERE]

CONCLUSION
If there is millions to be spent on Music in the past 10 years, it has been chiefly funneled to these performers. On one hand this foursome presented by BBC could have had much more earnings, if the Music industry had been able to keep up with recording Piracy, via gadgets and softwares.

With the other hand, MooPig takes the stance that all is scalable. Mouseketeer gets with groups, appears clean and washed behind the ears, earns a piece of Solomon's wealth -- and then sticks around for way too long afterward ... until the body empire starts to looked tarnished.

"Gold doesn't tarnish," scream the kid rebels of surburbia, reborns as they are.

Unfortunately, it seems millions for an entire decade will always be thrown at emotionally disturbed post-pubescent, rebelious children. Children who unwittingly translate that as strutting the stages of the world in birthday suits, for the 'amusement' of paradoxical pedophilial audiences. Soon it becomes difficult to distinguish between "leanings of performers and their behaviors."

The myth, the revel, the shame: It happened every past decade for a hundred years, so it will happen again, as music lifts another sacrifice to supplant the richest Mouseketeer ever produced character, and had some broil to anger their stage daddies, to become tarnished, rich, Yobs.
