Are Scientists Still Looking for the Higgs Boson?

I understood that the weight of the Higgs Boson was not what the Supersymmetry Theorists or the Multiverse Theorists planned. That left everyone going back to the drawing board.

Nomura and Hall argued that it should have a large self interaction in the multiverse and that that should lead to a mass of 145 GeV or so. We wrote a paper showing that in the presence of certain symmetries, this roughly reduces to the observed 126 GeV. So it seems like we live in a universe with a bit more strucure than Hall and Nomura assumed.
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.
