Credit where credit is due

Recent high energy physics work has led some to speculate that the Higgs boson particle may be able to travel back in time to prevent its own creation

A pair of otherwise distinguished physicists have suggested that the hypothesized Higgs boson, which physicists hope to produce with the collider, might be so abhorrent to nature that its creation would ripple backward through time and stop the collider before it could make one, like a time traveler who goes back in time to kill his grandfather.

Council candidate Rebecca Cave has mastered a similar, seemingly impossible, trick. Here is a handy timeline to illustrate:
