+<h3>
+The Large Hadron Collider Together With the CGAL Periodic Triangulations
+Prove the Existence of the Higgs Boson
+</h3>
+
+<p>
+The Higgs boson was a hypothetical massive scalar elementary particle
+predicted to exist by the Standard Model of particle physics.
+Until yesterday, the Higgs Boson was the only Standard Model particle
+not yet observed. The proof of its existence is crucial to explain how
+otherwise massless elementary particles still manage to construct mass
+in matter.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+What turned hypothetical existence in reality is the combination
+of 
+<ol type="i">
+<li>the photon collisions observed in the recently inaugurated
+<a href=" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Large_Hadron_Collide">Large Hadron Collider (LHC)</a>
+together with 
+<li> the Periodic Triangulation package of CGAL, which allows
+to compute Delaunay triangulations of toroidal spaces in order to apply
+finite difference simulations without dealing with artificial boundary
+conditions.
+</ol>
+</p>

+"We knew that hardware alone, buried in a circular tunnel under the Alps,
+and combined with a 128K triple-core processor grid, simply wouldn't do
+the job,",  
+said Irene Eneri, the LHC project leader, "What it additionaly
+needed were cleverly designed algorithms for complex shapes, and what we got
+from the folks of the CGAL project was beyond the keenest expectations
+of everybody -- even of the project officer of our EU funded Hicks project."
+</p>
+  
+<p>
+The downside of this breakthrough result is that the PhD student who worked
+on the periodic triangulations stopped working, telling everybody, that whatever
+he still finds out during his career is irelevant, as he expects to get the
+Fields Medal in about 9, and the  Nobel Prize for Physics in about 32 years.
