Are basic principles like those of Newton's laws of motion considered as physics axioms on which you expand to physics theorems? Where can I find a list of physics axioms?

XP is something I've studiously avoided. I have a neighbor with a question though. Normally when you right click the Start button the "Open" command is at the top of the popup list. In this case the order has somehow shifted and now the "Search" command is at the top of the list. This...

Stanford/SLAC has been lax about maintaining the topcite review process. Some of our bets depend on the topcite report----the forecast polls we had last year were sometimes about trends in citation. Arivero has remedied the slackness of SLAC to some extent by compiling the 2005 topcite list...
