Freshman Scientific Journalism - Physics

[Artius]

I need some topic ideas within the realm of physics that might captivate the interest of fellow Freshman engineers when presented as a powerpoint. Something along the lines of Entropy Death, Carbon Nanotubing, Time Travel and causality, etc within two weeks. Some links to articles would be appreciated :)

You want us to do your homework?

Sorry about the frontness and ambiguity in my post, my original intention posting this here was to ask if anyone knew of a phenomenon or theory of interest that I could slap onto a power point presentation with roughly 6 or 7 hours' worth of research that would be sufficient to explain the topic deeply enough, and would be of interest to colleagues with a moderate interest in Physics. Topics such as string theory would bore most of the non-mathematics majors in this course and would definitely earn quite a few scoffs >.>

If you're interested, I maintain my Google page with RSS feeds from PhysOrg in a few different areas plus PopSci and I pick out the most interesting ones to me to share. There are lots of different things that I think are cool, so I think rather than listing them you can see here and you can read the articles to see if it's something you'd like to pursue further.
