Hey James,
Recent g-2 developments are interesting, but even if results hold up, it’s unlikely they’ll overturn the Standard Model. Most likely, they’ll provide more nuanced interpretations on par with the massive neutrino and light Higgs boson, both of which were unexpected. Some interpretations using QCD Lattices place the data within standard parameters, so we’ll see.
The sensationalism surrounding this appears to be physicists grasping at straws. All their best theories have failed. There’s no evidence of supersymmetric string theory in the LHC, loop-quantum gravity’s a bust, and even recent data from the BICEP2/Planck Satellite threaten the most viable forms of Inflation. They’re lost, and they know it. They’re searching the wrong place.

FYI Gregg,
Science is provisional. Update of the Standard model means update of any theory dependent on it, such as ToK.
