[math-fun] Has someone repealed the laws of physics?

Science News reports in "Out of Sight" [15 July 2006, vol 170 no 3 p 42]: "Electromagnetic radiation typically exerts a repulsive pressure on objects, so it should, in theory, attract metamaterials. Also, the well-known Doppler shift, in which the frequency of electromagnetic radiation from an object increases as the object approaches, is expected to reverse for metamaterials. Experiments have yet to confirm those two predictions." IMHO, attractive pressure from EM radiation would violate conservation of energy and momentum, while reverse Doppler shift would violate relativity. Am I confused, or should Science News be embarassed? --ms
