Occam’s razor meets WMAP
Authors: Joao Magueijo, Rafael D. Sorkin
(Submitted on 19 Apr 2006)

Abstract: Using a variety of quantitative implementations of Occam’s razor we examine the low quadrupole, the “axis of evil” effect and other detections recently made appealing to the excellent WMAP data. We find that some razors {it fully} demolish the much lauded claims for departures from scale-invariance. They all reduce to pathetic levels the evidence for a low quadrupole (or any other low $ell$ cut-off), both in the first and third year WMAP releases. The “axis of evil” effect is the only anomaly examined here that survives the humiliations of Occam’s razor, and even then in the category of “strong” rather than “decisive” evidence. Statistical considerations aside, differences between the various renditions of the datasets remain worrying.

These links that I’m reading through, does not mean that I agree with. At this moment in time, not many people know what is going on out there. There are varies theories, with some people very emotional over their theory. If you wish to read up on these types of links just let me know.
