all those websites look fine to me. perhaps your internet had a problem temporarily or something.

What's the source for that? Was it on one of those LHC sites listed?

LHC cern update july and august
We were told yesterday that the beam schedule for the LHC collider at atlas facility will be in july 2008 with a cripple beam test of 1 TEV. this is 1 trillion electron volts. Do not expect anything to happen at these #ty energies. A so called full scale test will commence in august 2008 on a weekday. this is an energy of 14tev. I have heard rumors that the full energy capability of the LHC is 25TEV and that black holes will form at energies of 15 TEV and strangelets will oocur at energies of 20TEV. this is the reason why the probability of formation is so low becuase technically the particle accelerator will be run at subcritical velocities. Rumor has it also that the only people who will be around for the full scale test will be military of the 20 nations and a skeleton crew who will be jsut to operate the controls. It is also a rumor that fermilab has also decreased the barns of the focus magnets in the alice facility. This means that more ions will hit the each other. this is an experimental software update

It seems they are also getting rid of the physicians, who are arguing against the project:

as far as i know, they are just running preliminary tests atm since the completion of the tunnel.
