Robert Aymar (R), CERN Director-General, holds a Daruma Doll he received from Japanese senior Vice Minister of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology Toshio Yamauchi (L) after he painted the second eye as he stands next to Swiss Confederation President Pascal Couchepin (2nd L) and Christopher Llewellyn Smith, former CERN Director-General, during the official inauguration of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at the European Organisation for Nuclear Research (CERN) in Meyrin near Geneva October 21, 2008. CERN officially inaugurated its experiment to probe the origins of the universe on Tuesday, even though a technical hitch last month shut it down within days of starting.
