29 Ideas for New Physics since 1970 (1) New Ingredients Technicolour: Higgs a bound state of strongly-interacting particles (2) Symmetries for cancellation of quantum corrections Supersymmetry: Spin-statistics corrections from bosons and fermions cancel each other Little Higgs models: Global symmetries corrections from like-statistics particles cancel each other (3) Nontrivial Space-time structure eliminates hierarchy Additional space dimensions: gravity appears only week Noncommutative space-time: coarse-grained space-time (4) Ignoring the Hierarchy Anthropic Principle: parameters have their values, because we (can) measure them
