Covid vaccine is a normal vaccine and it is safe and effective.\u201d  But as of the end of last month, <em>Good Sciencing<\/em> has recorded 833 athletes, worldwide, who have had cardiac arrests or other serious issues, with 540 dead, post-Covid injection.

The newfound cells play a vital role in keeping the respiratory system functioning properly and could even inspire new treatments to reverse the effects of certain smoking-related diseases, according to a new study. The cells, known as respiratory airway secretory (RAS) cells, are found in tiny, branching passages known as bronchioles, which are tipped with alveoli, the teensy air sacs that exchange oxygen and carbon dioxide with the bloodstream. The new RAS cells are similar to stem cells \u2014 “blank canvas” cells that can differentiate into any other type of cell in the body \u2014 and are capable of repairing damaged alveoli cells and transforming into new ones. RAS cells serve two main functions in the lungs. First, they secrete molecules that  maintain the fluid lining along bronchioles, helping to prevent the tiny airways from collapsing and maximizing the efficiency of the lungs. Second, they can act as progenitor cells for alveolar type 2 (AT2) cells, a special type of alveoli that secrete a chemical that is used in part to repair other damaged alveoli.  A progenitor cell is a cell that has the capacity to differentiate into another type of cell, similar to how stem cells differentiate into other cells.\n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody><\/table>\n\t\t\t\t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<\/td>\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n \n\t\t\t\t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<\/tr>\n\t\t\t\t<\/table>\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody>\n<\/table><table class=\"mcnTextBlock\" style=\"min-width: 100%;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\">\n <tbody class=\"mcnTextBlockOuter\">\n <tr>\n <td class=\"mcnTextBlockInner\" style=\"padding-top: 9px;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" valign=\"top\">\n \t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<table align=\"left\" border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" width=\"100%\" style=\"width:100%;\">\n\t\t\t\t<tr>\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n\t\t\t \n\t\t\t\t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<td valign=\"top\" width=\"600\" style=\"width:600px;\">\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n <table style=\"max-width: 100%;min-width: 100%;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" class=\"mcnTextContentContainer\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\" align=\"left\">\n <tbody><tr>\n \n <td class=\"mcnTextContent\" style=\"padding-top: 0;padding-right: 18px;padding-bottom: 9px;padding-left: 18px;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;word-break: break-word;color: #ffffff;font-family: Helvetica;font-size: 16px;line-height: 150%;text-align: left;\" valign=\"top\">\n \n <h4 class=\"null\" style=\"display: block;margin: 0;padding: 0;color: #ffffff;font-family: Helvetica;font-size: 18px;font-style: normal;font-weight: bold;line-height: 125%;letter-spacing: normal;text-align: left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/news\/science-environment-60993523\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;color: #ffffff;font-weight: normal;text-decoration: underline;\" rel=\"noopener\">Shock Result in Particle Experiment Could Spark Physics Revolution \u2013 (BBC News \u2013 April 7, 2022)<\/a><\/h4>\nScientists at the Fermilab Collider Detector just outside Chicago have found that the mass of a sub-atomic particle is not what it should be. The measurement is the first conclusive experimental result that is at odds with one of the most important and successful theories of modern physics. The team has found that the particle, known as a W boson, is more massive than the theories predicted. The result has been described as “shocking” by Prof David Toback, who is the project co-spokesperson. The discovery could lead to the development of a new, more complete theory of how the Universe works. “If the results are verified by other experiments, the world is going to look different.” he said. “There has to be a paradigm shift. The hope is that maybe this result is going to be the one that breaks the dam. The scientists found a tiny difference in the mass of the W Boson compared with what the theory says it should be – just 0.1%. But if confirmed by other experiments, the implications are enormous. The so-called Standard Model of particle physics has predicted the behavior and properties of sub-atomic particles with no discrepancies whatsoever for fifty years. Until now. The result could be related to hints from other experiments at Fermilab and the Large Hadron Collider at the Swiss-French border. These, as yet unconfirmed results, also suggest deviations from the Standard Model, possibly as a result of an as yet undiscovered fifth force of nature at play.\n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody><\/table>\n\t\t\t\t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<\/td>\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n \n\t\t\t\t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<\/tr>\n\t\t\t\t<\/table>\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody>\n<\/table><table class=\"mcnImageBlock\" style=\"min-width: 100%;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\">\n <tbody class=\"mcnImageBlockOuter\">\n <tr>\n <td style=\"padding: 9px;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" class=\"mcnImageBlockInner\" valign=\"top\">\n <table class=\"mcnImageContentContainer\" style=\"min-width: 100%;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\" align=\"left\">\n <tbody><tr>\n <td class=\"mcnImageContent\" style=\"padding-right: 9px;padding-left: 9px;padding-top: 0;padding-bottom: 0;text-align: center;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" valign=\"top\">\n \n \n <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/mcusercontent.com\/916d9ff25098a781af857b468\/images\/a03c0983-a12e-45bb-8928-c02a5c29b90e.png\" style=\"max-width: 1200px;padding-bottom: 0;display: inline !important;vertical-align: bottom;border: 0;height: auto;outline: none;text-decoration: none;-ms-interpolation-mode: bicubic;\" class=\"mcnImage\" width=\"564\" align=\"middle\">\n \n \n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody><\/table>\n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody>\n<\/table><table class=\"mcnTextBlock\" style=\"min-width: 100%;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\">\n <tbody class=\"mcnTextBlockOuter\">\n <tr>\n <td class=\"mcnTextBlockInner\" style=\"padding-top: 9px;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" valign=\"top\">\n \t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<table align=\"left\" border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" width=\"100%\" style=\"width:100%;\">\n\t\t\t\t<tr>\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n\t\t\t \n\t\t\t\t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<td valign=\"top\" width=\"600\" style=\"width:600px;\">\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n <table style=\"max-width: 100%;min-width: 100%;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" class=\"mcnTextContentContainer\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\" align=\"left\">\n <tbody><tr>\n \n <td class=\"mcnTextContent\" style=\"padding-top: 0;padding-right: 18px;padding-bottom: 9px;padding-left: 18px;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;word-break: break-word;color: #ffffff;font-family: Helvetica;font-size: 16px;line-height: 150%;text-align: left;\" valign=\"top\">\n \n <h4 class=\"null\" style=\"display: block;margin: 0;padding: 0;color: #ffffff;font-family: Helvetica;font-size: 18px;font-style: normal;font-weight: bold;line-height: 125%;letter-spacing: normal;text-align: left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/scitechdaily.com\/mit-scientists-develop-new-regenerative-drug-that-reverses-hearing-loss\/\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;color: #ffffff;font-weight: normal;text-decoration: underline;\" rel=\"noopener\">MIT Scientists Develop New Regenerative Drug That Reverses Hearing Loss \u2013 (SciTech Daily \u2013 April 9, 2022)<\/a><\/h4>\nThe biotechnology company Frequency Therapeutics is seeking to reverse hearing loss with a new kind of regenerative therapy.

But for nearly two decades since, scientists have struggled to decipher the remaining 8%. Now, a team of nearly 100 scientists from the Telomere-to-Telomere (T2T) Consortium has unveiled the complete human genome — the first time it’s been sequenced in its entirety, the researchers say. The new research introduces 400 million letters to the previously sequenced DNA — an entire chromosome’s worth. The full genome will allow scientists to analyze how DNA differs between people and whether these genetic variations play a role in disease. Until now, it was unclear what these unknown genes coded. “It turns out that these genes are incredibly important for adaptation,” said Evan Eichler, a Howard Hughes Medical Institute investigator at the University of Washington and the research leader. “They contain immune response genes that help us to adapt and survive infections and plagues and viruses. They contain genes that are … very important in terms of predicting drug response.” Eichler also said that some of the recently uncovered genes are even responsible for making human brains larger than those of other primates, providing insight into what makes humans unique.\n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody><\/table>\n\t\t\t\t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<\/td>\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n \n\t\t\t\t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<\/tr>\n\t\t\t\t<\/table>\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody>\n<\/table><table class=\"mcnTextBlock\" style=\"min-width: 100%;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\">\n <tbody class=\"mcnTextBlockOuter\">\n <tr>\n <td class=\"mcnTextBlockInner\" style=\"padding-top: 9px;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" valign=\"top\">\n \t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<table align=\"left\" border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" width=\"100%\" style=\"width:100%;\">\n\t\t\t\t<tr>\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n\t\t\t \n\t\t\t\t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<td valign=\"top\" width=\"600\" style=\"width:600px;\">\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n <table style=\"max-width: 100%;min-width: 100%;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" class=\"mcnTextContentContainer\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\" align=\"left\">\n <tbody><tr>\n \n <td class=\"mcnTextContent\" style=\"padding-top: 0;padding-right: 18px;padding-bottom: 9px;padding-left: 18px;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;word-break: break-word;color: #ffffff;font-family: Helvetica;font-size: 16px;line-height: 150%;text-align: left;\" valign=\"top\">\n \n <h4 class=\"null\" style=\"display: block;margin: 0;padding: 0;color: #ffffff;font-family: Helvetica;font-size: 18px;font-style: normal;font-weight: bold;line-height: 125%;letter-spacing: normal;text-align: left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/newatlas.com\/medical\/mit-surgical-robot-stroke-treatment\/\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;color: #ffffff;font-weight: normal;text-decoration: underline;\" rel=\"noopener\">MIT Surgical Robot Could Let Surgeons Remotely Treat Stroke Victims \u2013 (New Atlas \u2013 April 13, 2022)<\/a><\/h4>\nWhen someone has experienced a stroke or aneurysm, they may require a surgical procedure known as an endovascular intervention. A new MIT-designed robotic system could ensure that they receive the treatment quickly, even if the physician is nowhere nearby. In a regular endovascular intervention, a specially trainer neurovascular surgeon steers a thin wire through one of the patient’s cerebral blood vessels, up to the clot. Visually guided by intermittent X-ray imaging, they then either physically break the clot part, or deliver drugs to dissolve it.  It’s crucial that the procedure be performed as quickly as possible, before oxygen deprivation to the brain causes irreversible damage. Unfortunately, if the patient is located too far away from a hospital at which a neurosurgeon is based, it may be impossible to transport them to that hospital in time. That’s where the experimental new system is designed to come in. It incorporates an articulated robotic arm with an actuating magnet on the end, which sits beside the patient’s head as they lie on an operating table at their local hospital. There’s also a motorized linear drive unit, which pushes or pulls on the same type of wire used in a conventional endovascular intervention (although the wire does have a magnetically responsive tip). The surgeon \u2013 who is located at a larger, more central hospital \u2013 utilizes a mouse to advance and retract the wire within the blood vessel, plus they use a joystick to move the arm and rotate the magnet. That allows them to remotely steer the wire from outside the patient’s body, since the direction and strength of the magnet’s pull on the wire varies as it rotates relative to the wire.\n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody><\/table>\n\t\t\t\t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<\/td>\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n \n\t\t\t\t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<\/tr>\n\t\t\t\t<\/table>\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody>\n<\/table><table class=\"mcnImageBlock\" style=\"min-width: 100%;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\">\n <tbody class=\"mcnImageBlockOuter\">\n <tr>\n <td style=\"padding: 9px;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" class=\"mcnImageBlockInner\" valign=\"top\">\n <table class=\"mcnImageContentContainer\" style=\"min-width: 100%;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\" align=\"left\">\n <tbody><tr>\n <td class=\"mcnImageContent\" style=\"padding-right: 9px;padding-left: 9px;padding-top: 0;padding-bottom: 0;text-align: center;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" valign=\"top\">\n \n \n <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/mcusercontent.com\/916d9ff25098a781af857b468\/images\/d28f8223-b7a8-4682-9198-1d41761ed998.png\" style=\"max-width: 1200px;padding-bottom: 0;display: inline !important;vertical-align: bottom;border: 0;height: auto;outline: none;text-decoration: none;-ms-interpolation-mode: bicubic;\" class=\"mcnImage\" width=\"564\" align=\"middle\">\n \n \n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody><\/table>\n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody>\n<\/table><table class=\"mcnTextBlock\" style=\"min-width: 100%;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\">\n <tbody class=\"mcnTextBlockOuter\">\n <tr>\n <td class=\"mcnTextBlockInner\" style=\"padding-top: 9px;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" valign=\"top\">\n \t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<table align=\"left\" border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" width=\"100%\" style=\"width:100%;\">\n\t\t\t\t<tr>\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n\t\t\t \n\t\t\t\t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<td valign=\"top\" width=\"600\" style=\"width:600px;\">\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n <table style=\"max-width: 100%;min-width: 100%;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" class=\"mcnTextContentContainer\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\" align=\"left\">\n <tbody><tr>\n \n <td class=\"mcnTextContent\" style=\"padding-top: 0;padding-right: 18px;padding-bottom: 9px;padding-left: 18px;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;word-break: break-word;color: #ffffff;font-family: Helvetica;font-size: 16px;line-height: 150%;text-align: left;\" valign=\"top\">\n \n <h4 class=\"null\" style=\"display: block;margin: 0;padding: 0;color: #ffffff;font-family: Helvetica;font-size: 18px;font-style: normal;font-weight: bold;line-height: 125%;letter-spacing: normal;text-align: left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.goodnewsnetwork.org\/beewise-hives-save-colonies-from-colony-collapse\/\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;color: #ffffff;font-weight: normal;text-decoration: underline;\" rel=\"noopener\">Company’s Innovative Smart Beehive Gets $80 Million in Funding to Save Bees From Any Hazard \u2013 (Good News Network \u2013 April 5, 2022)<\/a><\/h4>\nThe traditional hive most commonly used in the world today (the Langstroth box) was designed about 150 years ago. By completely redesigning the beehive, an Israeli company called Beewise was able to address many of the inefficiencies of the box and significantly improve bees\u2019 well-being and life longevity. Their mission to save bees recently received an $80 million funding boost for their autonomous hive. Utilizing 24\/7 monitoring and smart technology that significantly increases pollination capacity and honey production, Beewise\u2019s proprietary robotic beehive, the Beehome, seamlessly detects threats to a honeybee colony such as pesticides and the presence of pests and immediately defends against them. Its automatic robotic system responds to threats in real time and requires no human intervention. To reverse the trend of colony collapse, Beehomes are thermally regulated, and can provide protection from fires, flooding, and Asian Wasps (murder hornets). The hive even feeds the honeybees when local food supply is not available. Beewise\u2019s revolutionary solution uses a chemical-free, heat, and robotics approach to achieve 99.7% success rate. The robot heats frames to a point where it harms the pests (Varroa) but does not harm the bees\u2019 brood. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=5lmx3WJmqXM&t=155s&ab_channel=Reuters\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;color: #ffffff;font-weight: normal;text-decoration: underline;\" rel=\"noopener\">This video<\/a> shows how it works.\n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody><\/table>\n\t\t\t\t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<\/td>\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n \n\t\t\t\t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<\/tr>\n\t\t\t\t<\/table>\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody>\n<\/table><table class=\"mcnTextBlock\" style=\"min-width: 100%;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\">\n <tbody class=\"mcnTextBlockOuter\">\n <tr>\n <td class=\"mcnTextBlockInner\" style=\"padding-top: 9px;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" valign=\"top\">\n \t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<table align=\"left\" border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" width=\"100%\" style=\"width:100%;\">\n\t\t\t\t<tr>\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n\t\t\t \n\t\t\t\t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<td valign=\"top\" width=\"600\" style=\"width:600px;\">\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n <table style=\"max-width: 100%;min-width: 100%;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" class=\"mcnTextContentContainer\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\" align=\"left\">\n <tbody><tr>\n \n <td class=\"mcnTextContent\" style=\"padding-top: 0;padding-right: 18px;padding-bottom: 9px;padding-left: 18px;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;word-break: break-word;color: #ffffff;font-family: Helvetica;font-size: 16px;line-height: 150%;text-align: left;\" valign=\"top\">\n \n <h4 class=\"null\" style=\"display: block;margin: 0;padding: 0;color: #ffffff;font-family: Helvetica;font-size: 18px;font-style: normal;font-weight: bold;line-height: 125%;letter-spacing: normal;text-align: left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sevendaysvt.com\/vermont\/land-of-milk-v-honey-dairy-farmers-lobby-against-banning-pesticides-that-kill-bees\/Content?oid=35334767&_ga=2.114578511.93971639.1649933429-1698969630.1646313864\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;color: #ffffff;font-weight: normal;text-decoration: underline;\" rel=\"noopener\">Land of Milk v. Honey: Dairy Farmers Lobby Against Banning Pesticides That Kill Bees \u2013 (Seven Days \u2013 April 13, 2022)<\/a><\/h4>\nUnfortunately, the Beewise company (previous article) gives no info on how its product handles pesticides beyond detection. Equally unfortunately, competing interests due to large economic impacts exist on both sides of the issue. Vermont’s bees are dying at unprecedented rates, and it’s not a whodunit: Study after study points to a class of pesticides known as neonicotinoids as being at least partly responsible for the staggering rate of colony collapse in Vermont and around the world. And yet state lawmakers remain unwilling to address the No. 1 source of these toxic chemicals in the Green Mountains: imported feed-corn seeds that have been treated with the pesticides. A bill to ban their use is being blocked by powerful dairy interests who contend that the coated seeds are essential to make sure pests don’t eat the corn grown for cows. The battle is between two vital but beleaguered agricultural sectors, both of which are fighting to survive and neither of which wants to harm the other.\n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody><\/table>\n\t\t\t\t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<\/td>\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n \n\t\t\t\t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<\/tr>\n\t\t\t\t<\/table>\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody>\n<\/table><table class=\"mcnTextBlock\" style=\"min-width: 100%;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\">\n <tbody class=\"mcnTextBlockOuter\">\n <tr>\n <td class=\"mcnTextBlockInner\" style=\"padding-top: 9px;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" valign=\"top\">\n \t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<table align=\"left\" border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" width=\"100%\" style=\"width:100%;\">\n\t\t\t\t<tr>\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n\t\t\t \n\t\t\t\t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<td valign=\"top\" width=\"600\" style=\"width:600px;\">\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n <table style=\"max-width: 100%;min-width: 100%;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" class=\"mcnTextContentContainer\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\" align=\"left\">\n <tbody><tr>\n \n <td class=\"mcnTextContent\" style=\"padding-top: 0;padding-right: 18px;padding-bottom: 9px;padding-left: 18px;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;word-break: break-word;color: #ffffff;font-family: Helvetica;font-size: 16px;line-height: 150%;text-align: left;\" valign=\"top\">\n \n <h4 class=\"null\" style=\"display: block;margin: 0;padding: 0;color: #ffffff;font-family: Helvetica;font-size: 18px;font-style: normal;font-weight: bold;line-height: 125%;letter-spacing: normal;text-align: left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.fastcompany.com\/90740501\/68-of-u-s-execs-admit-their-companies-are-guilty-of-greenwashing\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;color: #ffffff;font-weight: normal;text-decoration: underline;\" rel=\"noopener\">68% of U.S. Execs Admit Their Companies Are Guilty of Greenwashing \u2013 (Fast Company \u2013 April 13, 2022)<\/a><\/h4>\nIn a new survey of 1,491 executives across different industries around the world, CEOs and other C-suite leaders said that sustainability was a priority.

Among leaders in the U.S., that figure rose to 68%. And two-thirds of executives globally questioned whether their company\u2019s sustainability efforts were genuine. The anonymous survey, conducted by the Harris Poll for Google Cloud with executives primarily at companies with more than 500 employees, has mixed messages: 80% of executives gave their companies an \u201cabove-average\u201d rating for environmental sustainability. The majority of leaders both at large corporations and startups said that sustainability is a priority for them; 93% said that they\u2019d be willing to tie their compensation to ESG (environmental, social, and governance) goals, or already do.

The research is fascinating, he writes, and may well eventually lead to extraordinary breakthroughs. But the reality, according to his analysis, is that things are progressing slowly so far and we\u2019re unlikely to see anything world-changing from the tech in the near future. Das Sarma traces the the history of quantum hype back to 1994, when an analysis showed that it\u2019s theoretically possible that the tech could crack open the strongest existing encryption algorithms. That represented a threat, so governments started pouring money into the space. The problem, in Das Sarma\u2019s analysis, is that even though the tech appears to be physically possible, actually solving it at scale has proven to be immensely challenging. The jump-out figure in his essay, for instance, is that today\u2019s top quantum computers have dozens of the types of qubits believed to be necessary to produce genuinely impressive results. But to effectively harness them, he writes, we would need to scale that number to the millions.\n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody><\/table>\n\t\t\t\t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<\/td>\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n \n\t\t\t\t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<\/tr>\n\t\t\t\t<\/table>\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody>\n<\/table><table class=\"mcnImageBlock\" style=\"min-width: 100%;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\">\n <tbody class=\"mcnImageBlockOuter\">\n <tr>\n <td style=\"padding: 9px;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" class=\"mcnImageBlockInner\" valign=\"top\">\n <table class=\"mcnImageContentContainer\" style=\"min-width: 100%;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\" align=\"left\">\n <tbody><tr>\n <td class=\"mcnImageContent\" style=\"padding-right: 9px;padding-left: 9px;padding-top: 0;padding-bottom: 0;text-align: center;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" valign=\"top\">\n \n \n <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/mcusercontent.com\/916d9ff25098a781af857b468\/images\/e5603a7a-9d61-4be1-ba55-d3b584ce7f3d.png\" style=\"max-width: 1200px;padding-bottom: 0;display: inline !important;vertical-align: bottom;border: 0;height: auto;outline: none;text-decoration: none;-ms-interpolation-mode: bicubic;\" class=\"mcnImage\" width=\"564\" align=\"middle\">\n \n \n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody><\/table>\n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody>\n<\/table><table class=\"mcnTextBlock\" style=\"min-width: 100%;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\">\n <tbody class=\"mcnTextBlockOuter\">\n <tr>\n <td class=\"mcnTextBlockInner\" style=\"padding-top: 9px;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" valign=\"top\">\n \t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<table align=\"left\" border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" width=\"100%\" style=\"width:100%;\">\n\t\t\t\t<tr>\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n\t\t\t \n\t\t\t\t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<td valign=\"top\" width=\"600\" style=\"width:600px;\">\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n <table style=\"max-width: 100%;min-width: 100%;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" class=\"mcnTextContentContainer\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\" align=\"left\">\n <tbody><tr>\n \n <td class=\"mcnTextContent\" style=\"padding-top: 0;padding-right: 18px;padding-bottom: 9px;padding-left: 18px;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;word-break: break-word;color: #ffffff;font-family: Helvetica;font-size: 16px;line-height: 150%;text-align: left;\" valign=\"top\">\n \n <h4 class=\"null\" style=\"display: block;margin: 0;padding: 0;color: #ffffff;font-family: Helvetica;font-size: 18px;font-style: normal;font-weight: bold;line-height: 125%;letter-spacing: normal;text-align: left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/newatlas.com\/architecture\/ootbox-portable-office-shipping-container\/\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;color: #ffffff;font-weight: normal;text-decoration: underline;\" rel=\"noopener\">Self-contained Ootbox Portable Office Is Made from a Shipping Container \u2013 (New Atlas \u2013 April 13, 2022)<\/a><\/h4>\nThe ootbox, a rentable portable office made out of an upcycled shipping container, was conceived in 2016, when home-based American entrepreneur Robbie Friedman found that he needed a private \u2013 but nearby \u2013 place to conduct business. He proceeded to build an “Escape Pod” in his backyard. Fast forward to the ootbox, which officially launched in 2020. It measures 10 feet long by 8.5 ft high by 8 ft wide (3 by 2.6 by 2.4 m), and tips the scales at about 4,000 lb (1,814 kg). The exterior features a fiberglass outward-opening door with a smart lock, large windows, and signage panels. Its interior sports a finished\/insulated plywood ceiling and walls, carpeted flooring, motion-activated lighting, and a smart thermostat. Each unit also incorporates its own electrical system, which includes a full HVAC (heating, ventilation and air conditioning) setup \u2013 it should be noted that the HVAC compressor takes up 2 ft (61 cm) of interior space. The whole ootbox is delivered by truck, set down wherever it’s needed, then simply plugged into a nearby 20-amp electrical outlet. Several versions of the ootbox are available, tailored toward specific usage scenarios such as corporate, healthcare, real estate development, and retail. Rental rates start at US$1,000 a month, with a four-month minimum.\n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody><\/table>\n\t\t\t\t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<\/td>\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n \n\t\t\t\t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<\/tr>\n\t\t\t\t<\/table>\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody>\n<\/table><table class=\"mcnImageBlock\" style=\"min-width: 100%;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\">\n <tbody class=\"mcnImageBlockOuter\">\n <tr>\n <td style=\"padding: 9px;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" class=\"mcnImageBlockInner\" valign=\"top\">\n <table class=\"mcnImageContentContainer\" style=\"min-width: 100%;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\" align=\"left\">\n <tbody><tr>\n <td class=\"mcnImageContent\" style=\"padding-right: 9px;padding-left: 9px;padding-top: 0;padding-bottom: 0;text-align: center;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" valign=\"top\">\n \n \n <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/mcusercontent.com\/916d9ff25098a781af857b468\/images\/8b7b010a-45aa-41b7-832b-79a3b43ca7b5.png\" style=\"max-width: 1200px;padding-bottom: 0;display: inline !important;vertical-align: bottom;border: 0;height: auto;outline: none;text-decoration: none;-ms-interpolation-mode: bicubic;\" class=\"mcnImage\" width=\"564\" align=\"middle\">\n \n \n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody><\/table>\n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody>\n<\/table><table class=\"mcnTextBlock\" style=\"min-width: 100%;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\">\n <tbody class=\"mcnTextBlockOuter\">\n <tr>\n <td class=\"mcnTextBlockInner\" style=\"padding-top: 9px;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" valign=\"top\">\n \t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<table align=\"left\" border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" width=\"100%\" style=\"width:100%;\">\n\t\t\t\t<tr>\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n\t\t\t \n\t\t\t\t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<td valign=\"top\" width=\"600\" style=\"width:600px;\">\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n <table style=\"max-width: 100%;min-width: 100%;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" class=\"mcnTextContentContainer\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\" align=\"left\">\n <tbody><tr>\n \n <td class=\"mcnTextContent\" style=\"padding-top: 0;padding-right: 18px;padding-bottom: 9px;padding-left: 18px;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;word-break: break-word;color: #ffffff;font-family: Helvetica;font-size: 16px;line-height: 150%;text-align: left;\" valign=\"top\">\n \n <h4 class=\"null\" style=\"display: block;margin: 0;padding: 0;color: #ffffff;font-family: Helvetica;font-size: 18px;font-style: normal;font-weight: bold;line-height: 125%;letter-spacing: normal;text-align: left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/principia-scientific.com\/net-zero-promisers-are-clueless-about-energy-storage\/\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;color: #ffffff;font-weight: normal;text-decoration: underline;\" rel=\"noopener\">‘Net Zero’ Promisers Are Clueless About Energy Storage \u2013 (Principia Scientific \u2013 March 31, 2022)<\/a><\/h4>\nApart from using nuclear power, the storage problem is the critical issue that must be addressed if there is ever going to be \u201cnet-zero\u201d electricity generation, let alone a \u201cnet-zero\u201d economy based on all energy usage having been electrified. The problems of trying to provide enough storage to back up a fully wind-and-solar-powered system without \u2018fossil fuels\u2019 are so huge and costly that you would think that everyone pushing the \u201cnet zero\u201d agenda would be completely focused on these issues. Instead, if you read about the plans and proposals in various quarters for \u201cnet zero\u201d in some short period of years, you quickly realize that the people pushing this agenda have no clue. This article looks at discussions of the storage situation coming out of three jurisdictions with ambitious \u201cnet zero\u201d plans: California, Australia, and New York. Briefly, the issue is that wind and solar generators have substantial periods when they generate nothing (e.g., calm nights), and other times when they generate far less than users demand. The question is how to create enough energy storage to cover those periods.\n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody><\/table>\n\t\t\t\t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<\/td>\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n \n\t\t\t\t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<\/tr>\n\t\t\t\t<\/table>\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody>\n<\/table><table class=\"mcnTextBlock\" style=\"min-width: 100%;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\">\n <tbody class=\"mcnTextBlockOuter\">\n <tr>\n <td class=\"mcnTextBlockInner\" style=\"padding-top: 9px;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" valign=\"top\">\n \t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<table align=\"left\" border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" width=\"100%\" style=\"width:100%;\">\n\t\t\t\t<tr>\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n\t\t\t \n\t\t\t\t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<td valign=\"top\" width=\"600\" style=\"width:600px;\">\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n <table style=\"max-width: 100%;min-width: 100%;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" class=\"mcnTextContentContainer\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\" align=\"left\">\n <tbody><tr>\n \n <td class=\"mcnTextContent\" style=\"padding-top: 0;padding-right: 18px;padding-bottom: 9px;padding-left: 18px;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;word-break: break-word;color: #ffffff;font-family: Helvetica;font-size: 16px;line-height: 150%;text-align: left;\" valign=\"top\">\n \n <h4 class=\"null\" style=\"display: block;margin: 0;padding: 0;color: #ffffff;font-family: Helvetica;font-size: 18px;font-style: normal;font-weight: bold;line-height: 125%;letter-spacing: normal;text-align: left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/newatlas.com\/energy\/liquid-system-solar-energy-most\/\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;color: #ffffff;font-weight: normal;text-decoration: underline;\" rel=\"noopener\">Liquid System Stores Solar Energy for Years and Releases It on Demand \u2013 (New Atlas \u2013 April 12, 2022)<\/a><\/h4>\nBack in 2017, researchers at Sweden’s Chalmers University of Technology designed an interesting energy system to store solar energy in liquid form. By hooking it up to an ultra-thin thermoelectric generator, the team has now demonstrated that it can produce electricity, a development it believes lays the groundwork for self-charging electronics that use solar power on demand. Called the MOlecular Solar Thermal (MOST) system, the technology has been in the works for more than a decade and centers on a specially designed molecule of carbon, hydrogen and nitrogen. When it comes into contact with sunlight, the atoms within the molecule are rearranged to change its shape and turn it into an energy-rich isomer, which can be stored in liquid form. The energy captured by the MOST system can be stored in this liquid state for up to 18 years, before a specially designed catalyst returns the molecule to its original shape and releases the energy as heat. The Chalmers team has now collaborated with scientists at China’s Shanghai Jiao Tong University, who have used a compact thermoelectric generator to turn that heat into electricity. \u201cThe generator is an ultra-thin chip that could be integrated into electronics such as headphones, smart watches and telephones,” said researcher Zhihang Wang from Chalmers University of Technology. “So far, we have only generated small amounts of electricity, but the new results show that the concept really works. It looks very promising,\u201d\n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody><\/table>\n\t\t\t\t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<\/td>\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n \n\t\t\t\t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<\/tr>\n\t\t\t\t<\/table>\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody>\n<\/table><table class=\"mcnImageBlock\" style=\"min-width: 100%;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\">\n <tbody class=\"mcnImageBlockOuter\">\n <tr>\n <td style=\"padding: 9px;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" class=\"mcnImageBlockInner\" valign=\"top\">\n <table class=\"mcnImageContentContainer\" style=\"min-width: 100%;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\" align=\"left\">\n <tbody><tr>\n <td class=\"mcnImageContent\" style=\"padding-right: 9px;padding-left: 9px;padding-top: 0;padding-bottom: 0;text-align: center;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" valign=\"top\">\n \n \n <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/mcusercontent.com\/916d9ff25098a781af857b468\/images\/dc436ab3-c7e2-41d0-a460-a87c628031bb.png\" style=\"max-width: 1200px;padding-bottom: 0;display: inline !important;vertical-align: bottom;border: 0;height: auto;outline: none;text-decoration: none;-ms-interpolation-mode: bicubic;\" class=\"mcnImage\" width=\"564\" align=\"middle\">\n \n \n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody><\/table>\n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody>\n<\/table><table class=\"mcnTextBlock\" style=\"min-width: 100%;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\">\n <tbody class=\"mcnTextBlockOuter\">\n <tr>\n <td class=\"mcnTextBlockInner\" style=\"padding-top: 9px;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" valign=\"top\">\n \t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<table align=\"left\" border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" width=\"100%\" style=\"width:100%;\">\n\t\t\t\t<tr>\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n\t\t\t \n\t\t\t\t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<td valign=\"top\" width=\"600\" style=\"width:600px;\">\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n <table style=\"max-width: 100%;min-width: 100%;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" class=\"mcnTextContentContainer\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\" align=\"left\">\n <tbody><tr>\n \n <td class=\"mcnTextContent\" style=\"padding-top: 0;padding-right: 18px;padding-bottom: 9px;padding-left: 18px;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;word-break: break-word;color: #ffffff;font-family: Helvetica;font-size: 16px;line-height: 150%;text-align: left;\" valign=\"top\">\n \n <h4 class=\"null\" style=\"display: block;margin: 0;padding: 0;color: #ffffff;font-family: Helvetica;font-size: 18px;font-style: normal;font-weight: bold;line-height: 125%;letter-spacing: normal;text-align: left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=7-4yOx1CnXE&t=71s&ab_channel=Tesla\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;color: #ffffff;font-weight: normal;text-decoration: underline;\" rel=\"noopener\">Flying Through Giga Berlin \u2013 (YouTube \u2013 April 1, 2022)<\/a><\/h4>\nTesla has opened a massive new production facility, Giga Berlin, in Germany for its Model Y, and they decided the best way to show off what state-of-the-art automobile assembly looks like is to swoop a drone through the factory.

More than any previous industrial control system hacking toolkit, the malware contains an array of components designed to disrupt or take control of the functioning of devices, including programmable logic controllers (PLCs) that are sold by Schneider Electric and OMRON and are designed to serve as the interface between traditional computers and the actuators and sensors in industrial environments. “This is the most expansive industrial control system attack tool that anyone has ever documented,” says Sergio Caltagirone, the vice president of threat intelligence at industrial-focused cybersecurity firm Dragos, which contributed research to the advisory and published its own report about the malware. \u201cIt\u2019s like a Swiss Army knife with a huge number of pieces to it.\u201d Dragos says the malware has the ability to hijack target devices, disrupt or prevent operators from accessing them, permanently brick them, or even use them as a foothold to give hackers access to other parts of an industrial control system network. He notes that while the toolkit, which Dragos calls \u201cPipedream,\u201d appears to specifically target Schneider Electric and OMRON PLCs (Programmable Logic Controllers), it does so by exploiting underlying software in those PLCs known as Codesys, which is used far more broadly across hundreds of other types of PLCs. The CISA advisory refers to an unnamed \u201cAPT actor\u201d that developed the malware toolkit, using the common acronym APT to mean advanced persistent threat, a term for state-sponsored hacker groups. It’s far from clear where the government agencies found the malware, or which country’s hackers created it. Caltagirone says it doesn’t appear to have been actually used against a victim\u2014or at least, it hasn’t yet triggered actual physical effects on a victim’s industrial control systems.\n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody><\/table>\n\t\t\t\t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<\/td>\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n \n\t\t\t\t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<\/tr>\n\t\t\t\t<\/table>\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody>\n<\/table><table class=\"mcnImageBlock\" style=\"min-width: 100%;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\">\n <tbody class=\"mcnImageBlockOuter\">\n <tr>\n <td style=\"padding: 9px;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" class=\"mcnImageBlockInner\" valign=\"top\">\n <table class=\"mcnImageContentContainer\" style=\"min-width: 100%;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\" align=\"left\">\n <tbody><tr>\n <td class=\"mcnImageContent\" style=\"padding-right: 9px;padding-left: 9px;padding-top: 0;padding-bottom: 0;text-align: center;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" valign=\"top\">\n \n \n <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/mcusercontent.com\/916d9ff25098a781af857b468\/images\/89e7707a-0a68-4699-8fef-f6e417fdb7f6.png\" style=\"max-width: 1200px;padding-bottom: 0;display: inline !important;vertical-align: bottom;border: 0;height: auto;outline: none;text-decoration: none;-ms-interpolation-mode: bicubic;\" class=\"mcnImage\" width=\"564\" align=\"middle\">\n \n \n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody><\/table>\n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody>\n<\/table><table class=\"mcnTextBlock\" style=\"min-width: 100%;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\">\n <tbody class=\"mcnTextBlockOuter\">\n <tr>\n <td class=\"mcnTextBlockInner\" style=\"padding-top: 9px;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" valign=\"top\">\n \t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<table align=\"left\" border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" width=\"100%\" style=\"width:100%;\">\n\t\t\t\t<tr>\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n\t\t\t \n\t\t\t\t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<td valign=\"top\" width=\"600\" style=\"width:600px;\">\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n <table style=\"max-width: 100%;min-width: 100%;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" class=\"mcnTextContentContainer\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\" align=\"left\">\n <tbody><tr>\n \n <td class=\"mcnTextContent\" style=\"padding-top: 0;padding-right: 18px;padding-bottom: 9px;padding-left: 18px;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;word-break: break-word;color: #ffffff;font-family: Helvetica;font-size: 16px;line-height: 150%;text-align: left;\" valign=\"top\">\n \n <h4 class=\"null\" style=\"display: block;margin: 0;padding: 0;color: #ffffff;font-family: Helvetica;font-size: 18px;font-style: normal;font-weight: bold;line-height: 125%;letter-spacing: normal;text-align: left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nbcnews.com\/politics\/national-security\/us-using-declassified-intel-fight-info-war-russia-even-intel-isnt-rock-rcna23014\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;color: #ffffff;font-weight: normal;text-decoration: underline;\" rel=\"noopener\">In a Break with the Past, U.S. Is Using Intel to Fight an Info War with Russia, Even When the Intel Isn’t Rock Solid \u2013 (NBC \u2013 April 6, 2022)<\/a><\/h4>\n\n<p class=\"yiv7285812473css-axufdj\" style=\"margin: 10px 0;padding: 0;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;color: #ffffff;font-family: Helvetica;font-size: 16px;line-height: 150%;text-align: left;\">It was an attention-grabbing assertion that made headlines around the world: U.S. officials said they had indications suggesting Russia might be preparing to use chemical agents in Ukraine. President Joe Biden later said it publicly. But three U.S. officials told NBC News this week there is no evidence Russia has brought any chemical weapons near Ukraine. They said the U.S. released the information to deter Russia from using the banned munitions. Multiple U.S. officials acknowledged that the U.S. has used information as a weapon even when confidence in the accuracy of the information wasn\u2019t high. Sometimes it has used low-confidence intelligence for deterrent effect, as with chemical agents, and other times, as an official put it, the U.S. is just \u201ctrying to get inside Putin\u2019s head.\u201d At times, the Biden administration has released information in which it has less confidence or about things that are possible rather than truly likely. Last week, U.S. officials told reporters they had intelligence suggesting Putin is being misled by his own advisers, who are afraid to tell him the truth. But when Biden was asked about the disclosure later in the day \u2014 after it made headlines around the globe \u2014 he was less than definitive.<\/p>\n\n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody><\/table>\n\t\t\t\t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<\/td>\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n \n\t\t\t\t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<\/tr>\n\t\t\t\t<\/table>\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody>\n<\/table><table class=\"mcnImageBlock\" style=\"min-width: 100%;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\">\n <tbody class=\"mcnImageBlockOuter\">\n <tr>\n <td style=\"padding: 9px;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" class=\"mcnImageBlockInner\" valign=\"top\">\n <table class=\"mcnImageContentContainer\" style=\"min-width: 100%;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\" align=\"left\">\n <tbody><tr>\n <td class=\"mcnImageContent\" style=\"padding-right: 9px;padding-left: 9px;padding-top: 0;padding-bottom: 0;text-align: center;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" valign=\"top\">\n \n \n <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/mcusercontent.com\/916d9ff25098a781af857b468\/images\/89e7707a-0a68-4699-8fef-f6e417fdb7f6.png\" style=\"max-width: 1200px;padding-bottom: 0;display: inline !important;vertical-align: bottom;border: 0;height: auto;outline: none;text-decoration: none;-ms-interpolation-mode: bicubic;\" class=\"mcnImage\" width=\"564\" align=\"middle\">\n \n \n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody><\/table>\n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody>\n<\/table><table class=\"mcnTextBlock\" style=\"min-width: 100%;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\">\n <tbody class=\"mcnTextBlockOuter\">\n <tr>\n <td class=\"mcnTextBlockInner\" style=\"padding-top: 9px;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" valign=\"top\">\n \t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<table align=\"left\" border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" width=\"100%\" style=\"width:100%;\">\n\t\t\t\t<tr>\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n\t\t\t \n\t\t\t\t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<td valign=\"top\" width=\"600\" style=\"width:600px;\">\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n <table style=\"max-width: 100%;min-width: 100%;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" class=\"mcnTextContentContainer\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\" align=\"left\">\n <tbody><tr>\n \n <td class=\"mcnTextContent\" style=\"padding-top: 0;padding-right: 18px;padding-bottom: 9px;padding-left: 18px;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;word-break: break-word;color: #ffffff;font-family: Helvetica;font-size: 16px;line-height: 150%;text-align: left;\" valign=\"top\">\n \n <h4 class=\"null\" style=\"display: block;margin: 0;padding: 0;color: #ffffff;font-family: Helvetica;font-size: 18px;font-style: normal;font-weight: bold;line-height: 125%;letter-spacing: normal;text-align: left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/thedailyblog.co.nz\/2022\/03\/10\/selective-outrage\/\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;color: #ffffff;font-weight: normal;text-decoration: underline;\" rel=\"noopener\">Selective Outrage \u2013 (Daily Blog \u2013 March 10, 2022)<\/a><\/h4>\n\n<p class=\"yiv7285812473css-axufdj\" style=\"margin: 10px 0;padding: 0;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;color: #ffffff;font-family: Helvetica;font-size: 16px;line-height: 150%;text-align: left;\">On 16 December 2021, the United Nations tabled Resolution A\/RES\/75\/169, calling for \u2018combating glorification of Nazism, neo-Nazism and other practices that contribute to fuelling contemporary forms of racism\u2019. A 67% majority, including Israel, voted for it. The only nations to vote against were the United States and Ukraine. Both New Zealand and Australia abstained. So did the NATO allies. In 2017, at a time when it seems the newspaper was more open, the <em>Washington Post<\/em> warned us that a Ukrainian war with Russia should never allow us to forget about the power of neo-Nazism in the Ukraine. Ukraine has the only army in the world with a neo-Nazi component, the Azov Battalion; it formally joined the Ukrainian National Guard in 2014. The Battalion\u2019s badge is strikingly similar to that of the 2nd Waffen SS Panzer Division emblem in World War Two. Ukraine\u2019s Azov movement is inspiring right-wing racism across the globe, including New Zealand. (The author of this blog is based in New Zealand.) In 2019, the Australian, Brenton Tarrant, wearing an Azov Battalion symbol, attacked two mosques in Christchurch, murdering 51 worshippers. Tarrant had earlier visited several East European countries and, while producing his manifesto, wrote that he was in Ukraine. The Israeli historian, Professor Ilan Papp\u00e9 observes that \u201cthose of us experiencing, reporting and digesting the human catastrophes in Palestine cannot escape the hypocrisy of the West and we can point to it without belittling, for a moment, our human solidarity and empathy with victims of any war. The news media and world leaders fall silent when Israel uses its military might to assault defenseless communities, villages and towns, not just in Palestine but elsewhere, including in Lebanon. No sanctions have been called for, let alone imposed. Instead the peace-oriented Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement has been ignored, vilified and even outlawed.

In fact, Russian speakers constitute a majority in urban areas of industrialized eastern Ukraine and socio-culturally identify with Russia. Ethnic Russians constituted the social and political elite of Ukraine in the heyday of the Soviet Empire, but were reduced to second-class citizens following the break-up of the Soviet Union in the nineties. The state-sponsored persecution of ethnic Russians intensified across Ukraine following the colored revolution in January 2005, dubbed the Orange Revolution, orchestrated by the Western powers and their Ukrainian collaborators, subversively toppling the democratically elected president of Ukraine, Viktor Yanukovych. But the real ethnic cleansing of Russians in Ukraine began after the 2014 Maidan coup, once again ousting pro-Russia Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych, and NATO powers initiated an eight-year war of attrition against Russia in Ukraine\u2019s eastern Donbas region by nurturing the Ukraine\u2019s infamous Azov Battalion, officially part of the National Guard of Ukraine, that has been widely acknowledged as a neo-Nazi volunteer paramilitary force connected with foreign white supremacist organizations. Despite all the evidence of genocide and ethnic cleansing of Russians by the neo-Nazi militias in Ukraine, the establishment media is abuzz with reports of alleged genocide of Ukrainians by the withdrawing Russian forces in the outskirts of the capital. Hundreds of dead bodies \u201cburied in mass graves\u201d were found in Bucha, a town 37 km (23 miles) northwest of Kyiv, allegedly massacred by the Chechen contingent of the Russian forces occupying the area. Denying the unsubstantiated allegations of purported war crimes and genocide by Russian troops, Russia\u2019s chief investigator Alexander Bastrykin, head of the Russian Investigative Committee, ordered a probe be opened on the basis that Ukraine had insidiously spread \u201cdeliberately false information\u201d in order to malign Russia\u2019s month-long military campaign in Ukraine. Leveling spurious accusations of alleged genocide and ethnic cleansing in order to vilify regional and global adversaries has become a preferred tool in the psyops\u2019 arsenal of the corporate media in the recent years. Following the rise of China as a major economic power in the 21st century, the mainstream media was similarly tasked by the security establishments to demonize the global rival by blowing out of proportions the sheer fabrication of alleged \u201cgenocide and ethnic cleansing\u201d of Uyghur Muslim\u2019s in China\u2019s western Xinjiang province in order to drive a wedge between the rising industrial power and the energy-rich Islamic World.<\/p>\n\n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody><\/table>\n\t\t\t\t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<\/td>\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n \n\t\t\t\t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<\/tr>\n\t\t\t\t<\/table>\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody>\n<\/table><table class=\"mcnImageBlock\" style=\"min-width: 100%;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\">\n <tbody class=\"mcnImageBlockOuter\">\n <tr>\n <td style=\"padding: 9px;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" class=\"mcnImageBlockInner\" valign=\"top\">\n <table class=\"mcnImageContentContainer\" style=\"min-width: 100%;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\" align=\"left\">\n <tbody><tr>\n <td class=\"mcnImageContent\" style=\"padding-right: 9px;padding-left: 9px;padding-top: 0;padding-bottom: 0;text-align: center;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" valign=\"top\">\n \n \n <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/mcusercontent.com\/916d9ff25098a781af857b468\/images\/1955eac6-467c-41bd-a8b7-b2ccd4454d33.png\" style=\"max-width: 1200px;padding-bottom: 0;display: inline !important;vertical-align: bottom;border: 0;height: auto;outline: none;text-decoration: none;-ms-interpolation-mode: bicubic;\" class=\"mcnImage\" width=\"564\" align=\"middle\">\n \n \n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody><\/table>\n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody>\n<\/table><table class=\"mcnTextBlock\" style=\"min-width: 100%;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\">\n <tbody class=\"mcnTextBlockOuter\">\n <tr>\n <td class=\"mcnTextBlockInner\" style=\"padding-top: 9px;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" valign=\"top\">\n \t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<table align=\"left\" border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" width=\"100%\" style=\"width:100%;\">\n\t\t\t\t<tr>\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n\t\t\t \n\t\t\t\t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<td valign=\"top\" width=\"600\" style=\"width:600px;\">\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n <table style=\"max-width: 100%;min-width: 100%;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" class=\"mcnTextContentContainer\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\" align=\"left\">\n <tbody><tr>\n \n <td class=\"mcnTextContent\" style=\"padding-top: 0;padding-right: 18px;padding-bottom: 9px;padding-left: 18px;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;word-break: break-word;color: #ffffff;font-family: Helvetica;font-size: 16px;line-height: 150%;text-align: left;\" valign=\"top\">\n \n <h4 class=\"null\" style=\"display: block;margin: 0;padding: 0;color: #ffffff;font-family: Helvetica;font-size: 18px;font-style: normal;font-weight: bold;line-height: 125%;letter-spacing: normal;text-align: left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/science\/2022\/mar\/29\/plutos-peaks-are-ice-volcanoes-scientists-conclude\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;color: #ffffff;font-weight: normal;text-decoration: underline;\" rel=\"noopener\">Pluto\u2019s Peaks Are Ice Volcanoes, Scientists Conclude \u2013 (Guardian \u2013 March 29, 2022)<\/a><\/h4>\nTwo peaks that tower over the surface of the dwarf planet Pluto have perplexed planetary scientists for years. Some speculated it could be an ice volcano, spewing out not lava but vast quantities of icy slush \u2013 yet no cauldron-like caldera could be seen. Now a full analysis of images and topographical data suggests it is not one ice volcano but a merger of many \u2013 some up to 7,000 meters tall and about 10-150km across. Their discovery has reignited another debate: what could be keeping Pluto warm enough to support volcanic activity? Possibly, it suggests Pluto\u2019s rocky core is warmer than anticipated, and that heat energy released from the radioactive decay some of its elements is being somehow becoming trapped, for example by an insulating layer of material, and periodically released, triggering volcanic eruptions. Whatever the explanation, the old idea of Pluto as just an inert ball of ice is looking increasingly improbable.\n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody><\/table>\n\t\t\t\t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<\/td>\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n \n\t\t\t\t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<\/tr>\n\t\t\t\t<\/table>\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody>\n<\/table><table class=\"mcnTextBlock\" style=\"min-width: 100%;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\">\n <tbody class=\"mcnTextBlockOuter\">\n <tr>\n <td class=\"mcnTextBlockInner\" style=\"padding-top: 9px;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" valign=\"top\">\n \t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<table align=\"left\" border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" width=\"100%\" style=\"width:100%;\">\n\t\t\t\t<tr>\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n\t\t\t \n\t\t\t\t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<td valign=\"top\" width=\"600\" style=\"width:600px;\">\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n <table style=\"max-width: 100%;min-width: 100%;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" class=\"mcnTextContentContainer\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\" align=\"left\">\n <tbody><tr>\n \n <td class=\"mcnTextContent\" style=\"padding-top: 0;padding-right: 18px;padding-bottom: 9px;padding-left: 18px;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;word-break: break-word;color: #ffffff;font-family: Helvetica;font-size: 16px;line-height: 150%;text-align: left;\" valign=\"top\">\n \n <h4 class=\"null\" style=\"display: block;margin: 0;padding: 0;color: #ffffff;font-family: Helvetica;font-size: 18px;font-style: normal;font-weight: bold;line-height: 125%;letter-spacing: normal;text-align: left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/mymodernmet.com\/andrew-mccarthy-moon-libration-gif\/\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;color: #ffffff;font-weight: normal;text-decoration: underline;\" rel=\"noopener\">Photographer Uses 2 Million Photos to Produce GIF Showing Moon\u2019s Movement \u2013 (MyModernMet \u2013 March 30, 2022)<\/a><\/h4>\nAstrophotographer Andrew McCarthy spent a month chasing the Moon in order to create a gif that shows the beauty of its movement. Using over 2 million individual photos, he put together a spectacular look at how it \u201cdances in the sky.\u201d This dance is called libration and it’s the result of the Moon’s slightly tilted axis and elliptical orbit around Earth. Inspired by the fact that he’d never seen a high-resolution gif of the lunar libration and rotation at zenith, McCarthy set out to create his own. This required him to photograph the Moon as it transited zenith every 25 hours for 26 days. Based on the weather forecast, he found himself traveling around Arizona to get the best view of the Moon. But weather can be unpredictable. \u201cOne night had clear skies forecasted, and I ended up getting rained on. Another I was shooting through a dust storm,\u201d he said. The challenges didn’t stop there. \u201cPostprocessing was a challenge because conditions varied from day to day,\u201d McCarthy admits, \u201cso I had to match sharpness, contrast, and noise levels from day to day, despite each image having vastly different quality.\u201d It’s his biggest project of the year thus far, and one that he hopes will instill in others the passion for the Moon that he himself has.\n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody><\/table>\n\t\t\t\t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<\/td>\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n \n\t\t\t\t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<\/tr>\n\t\t\t\t<\/table>\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody>\n<\/table><table class=\"mcnTextBlock\" style=\"min-width: 100%;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\">\n <tbody class=\"mcnTextBlockOuter\">\n <tr>\n <td class=\"mcnTextBlockInner\" style=\"padding-top: 9px;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" valign=\"top\">\n \t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<table align=\"left\" border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" width=\"100%\" style=\"width:100%;\">\n\t\t\t\t<tr>\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n\t\t\t \n\t\t\t\t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<td valign=\"top\" width=\"600\" style=\"width:600px;\">\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n <table style=\"max-width: 100%;min-width: 100%;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" class=\"mcnTextContentContainer\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\" align=\"left\">\n <tbody><tr>\n \n <td class=\"mcnTextContent\" style=\"padding-top: 0;padding-right: 18px;padding-bottom: 9px;padding-left: 18px;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;word-break: break-word;color: #ffffff;font-family: Helvetica;font-size: 16px;line-height: 150%;text-align: left;\" valign=\"top\">\n \n <h4 class=\"null\" style=\"display: block;margin: 0;padding: 0;color: #ffffff;font-family: Helvetica;font-size: 18px;font-style: normal;font-weight: bold;line-height: 125%;letter-spacing: normal;text-align: left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/phys.org\/news\/2022-04-audio-mars-reveals.html\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;color: #ffffff;font-weight: normal;text-decoration: underline;\" rel=\"noopener\">First Audio Recorded on Mars Reveals Two Speeds of Sound \u2013 (PhysOrg \u2013 April 1, 2022)<\/a><\/h4>\nThe first audio recordings on Mars reveal a quiet planet with occasional gusts of wind where two different speeds of sound would have a strange delayed effect on hearing, scientists said. After NASA’s Perseverance rover landed on Mars in February last year, its two microphones started recording, allowing scientists to hear what it is like on the Red Planet for the first time. The audio revealed previously unknown turbulence on Mars, said Sylvestre Maurice, the study’s main author and scientific co-director of the shoebox-sized SuperCam mounted on the rover’s mast which has the main microphone. The study confirmed for the first time that the speed of sound is slower on Mars, traveling at 240 meters per second, compared to Earth’s 340 meters per second. This had been expected because Mars’ atmosphere is 95% carbon dioxide\u2014compared to Earth’s 0.04%\u2014and is about 100 times thinner, making sound 20 decibels weaker, the study said. But the scientists were surprised when the sound made by the laser took 250 meters a second\u201410 meters faster than expected. They had discovered there are two speeds of sound on the surface of Mars\u2014one for high-pitched sounds like the zap of the laser, and another for lower frequencies like the whir of the helicopter rotor. This means that human ears would hear high-pitched sounds slightly earlier. It was otherwise so quiet on Mars that the scientists repeatedly feared something was wrong, the French CNRS research institute said, possibly provoking memories of two failed previous attempts in 1999 and 2008 to record sound there.\n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody><\/table>\n\t\t\t\t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<\/td>\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n \n\t\t\t\t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<\/tr>\n\t\t\t\t<\/table>\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody>\n<\/table><table class=\"mcnTextBlock\" style=\"min-width: 100%;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\">\n <tbody class=\"mcnTextBlockOuter\">\n <tr>\n <td class=\"mcnTextBlockInner\" style=\"padding-top: 9px;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" valign=\"top\">\n \t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<table align=\"left\" border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" width=\"100%\" style=\"width:100%;\">\n\t\t\t\t<tr>\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n\t\t\t \n\t\t\t\t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<td valign=\"top\" width=\"600\" style=\"width:600px;\">\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n <table style=\"max-width: 100%;min-width: 100%;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" class=\"mcnTextContentContainer\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\" align=\"left\">\n <tbody><tr>\n \n <td class=\"mcnTextContent\" style=\"padding-top: 0;padding-right: 18px;padding-bottom: 9px;padding-left: 18px;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;word-break: break-word;color: #ffffff;font-family: Helvetica;font-size: 16px;line-height: 150%;text-align: left;\" valign=\"top\">\n \n <h4 class=\"null\" style=\"display: block;margin: 0;padding: 0;color: #ffffff;font-family: Helvetica;font-size: 18px;font-style: normal;font-weight: bold;line-height: 125%;letter-spacing: normal;text-align: left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/phys.org\/news\/2022-04-prenatal-protoplanet-upends-planet-formation.html\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;color: #ffffff;font-weight: normal;text-decoration: underline;\" rel=\"noopener\">Hubble Finds a Protoplanet That Could Upend Planet Formation Models \u2013 (PhysOrg \u2013 April 4, 2022)<\/a><\/h4>\nNASA’s Hubble Space Telescope has directly photographed evidence of a Jupiter-like protoplanet forming through what researchers describe as an “intense and violent process.” This discovery supports a long-debated theory for how planets like Jupiter form, called “disk instability.” The new world under construction is embedded in a protoplanetary disk of dust and gas with distinct spiral structure swirling around, surrounding a young star that’s estimated to be around 2 million years old. That’s about the age of our solar system when planet formation was underway. (The solar system’s age is currently 4.6 billion years.) All planets are made from material that originated in a circumstellar disk. The dominant theory for Jovian planet formation is called “core accretion,” a bottom-up approach where planets embedded in the disk grow from small objects\u2014with sizes ranging from dust grains to boulders\u2014colliding and sticking together as they orbit a star. This core then slowly accumulates gas from the disk. In contrast, the disk instability approach is a top-down model where as a massive disk around a star cools, gravity causes the disk to rapidly break up into one or more planet-mass fragments. The newly forming planet, called AB Aurigae b, is probably about nine times more massive than Jupiter and orbits its host star at a whopping distance of 8.6 billion miles\u2014over two times farther than Pluto is from our Sun. At that distance it would take a very long time, if ever, for a Jupiter-sized planet to form by core accretion. This leads researchers to conclude that the disk instability has enabled this planet to form at such a great distance. And, it is in a striking contrast to expectations of planet formation by the widely accepted core accretion model.\n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody><\/table>\n\t\t\t\t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<\/td>\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n \n\t\t\t\t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<\/tr>\n\t\t\t\t<\/table>\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody>\n<\/table><table class=\"mcnImageBlock\" style=\"min-width: 100%;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\">\n <tbody class=\"mcnImageBlockOuter\">\n <tr>\n <td style=\"padding: 9px;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" class=\"mcnImageBlockInner\" valign=\"top\">\n <table class=\"mcnImageContentContainer\" style=\"min-width: 100%;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\" align=\"left\">\n <tbody><tr>\n <td class=\"mcnImageContent\" style=\"padding-right: 9px;padding-left: 9px;padding-top: 0;padding-bottom: 0;text-align: center;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" valign=\"top\">\n \n \n <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/mcusercontent.com\/916d9ff25098a781af857b468\/images\/c1c5845a-2cc1-4f99-9312-ad9c819c9be2.png\" style=\"max-width: 1200px;padding-bottom: 0;display: inline !important;vertical-align: bottom;border: 0;height: auto;outline: none;text-decoration: none;-ms-interpolation-mode: bicubic;\" class=\"mcnImage\" width=\"564\" align=\"middle\">\n \n \n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody><\/table>\n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody>\n<\/table><table class=\"mcnTextBlock\" style=\"min-width: 100%;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\">\n <tbody class=\"mcnTextBlockOuter\">\n <tr>\n <td class=\"mcnTextBlockInner\" style=\"padding-top: 9px;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" valign=\"top\">\n \t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<table align=\"left\" border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" width=\"100%\" style=\"width:100%;\">\n\t\t\t\t<tr>\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n\t\t\t \n\t\t\t\t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<td valign=\"top\" width=\"600\" style=\"width:600px;\">\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n <table style=\"max-width: 100%;min-width: 100%;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" class=\"mcnTextContentContainer\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\" align=\"left\">\n <tbody><tr>\n \n <td class=\"mcnTextContent\" style=\"padding-top: 0;padding-right: 18px;padding-bottom: 9px;padding-left: 18px;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;word-break: break-word;color: #ffffff;font-family: Helvetica;font-size: 16px;line-height: 150%;text-align: left;\" valign=\"top\">\n \n <h4 class=\"null\" style=\"display: block;margin: 0;padding: 0;color: #ffffff;font-family: Helvetica;font-size: 18px;font-style: normal;font-weight: bold;line-height: 125%;letter-spacing: normal;text-align: left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/futurism.com\/the-byte\/openai-dall-e2-realistic-images-descriptions\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;color: #ffffff;font-weight: normal;text-decoration: underline;\" rel=\"noopener\">Amazing New AI Can Spit Out Realistic Images From Simple Descriptions \u2013 (The  Byte \u2013 April 6, 2022)<\/a><\/h4>\nArtificial intelligence company OpenAI has released its latest creation, called DALL-E2 \u2014 an impressive demonstration of the power of generative adversarial networks.

It can even combine totally alien concepts, like generating several believable images of an astronaut riding a horse in space, or a koala bear dunking a basketball. <a href=\"https:\/\/openai.com\/dall-e-2\/\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;color: #ffffff;font-weight: normal;text-decoration: underline;\" rel=\"noopener\">Here<\/a> is the company’s interactive website that showcases more of the system’s capabilities.\n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody><\/table>\n\t\t\t\t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<\/td>\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n \n\t\t\t\t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<\/tr>\n\t\t\t\t<\/table>\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody>\n<\/table><table class=\"mcnImageBlock\" style=\"min-width: 100%;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\">\n <tbody class=\"mcnImageBlockOuter\">\n <tr>\n <td style=\"padding: 9px;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" class=\"mcnImageBlockInner\" valign=\"top\">\n <table class=\"mcnImageContentContainer\" style=\"min-width: 100%;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\" align=\"left\">\n <tbody><tr>\n <td class=\"mcnImageContent\" style=\"padding-right: 9px;padding-left: 9px;padding-top: 0;padding-bottom: 0;text-align: center;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" valign=\"top\">\n \n \n <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/mcusercontent.com\/916d9ff25098a781af857b468\/images\/33a86720-2925-4edd-a373-9d326d952424.png\" style=\"max-width: 1200px;padding-bottom: 0;display: inline !important;vertical-align: bottom;border: 0;height: auto;outline: none;text-decoration: none;-ms-interpolation-mode: bicubic;\" class=\"mcnImage\" width=\"564\" align=\"middle\">\n \n \n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody><\/table>\n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody>\n<\/table><table class=\"mcnTextBlock\" style=\"min-width: 100%;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\">\n <tbody class=\"mcnTextBlockOuter\">\n <tr>\n <td class=\"mcnTextBlockInner\" style=\"padding-top: 9px;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" valign=\"top\">\n \t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<table align=\"left\" border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" width=\"100%\" style=\"width:100%;\">\n\t\t\t\t<tr>\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n\t\t\t \n\t\t\t\t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<td valign=\"top\" width=\"600\" style=\"width:600px;\">\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n <table style=\"max-width: 100%;min-width: 100%;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" class=\"mcnTextContentContainer\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\" align=\"left\">\n <tbody><tr>\n \n <td class=\"mcnTextContent\" style=\"padding-top: 0;padding-right: 18px;padding-bottom: 9px;padding-left: 18px;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;word-break: break-word;color: #ffffff;font-family: Helvetica;font-size: 16px;line-height: 150%;text-align: left;\" valign=\"top\">\n \n <h4 class=\"null\" style=\"display: block;margin: 0;padding: 0;color: #ffffff;font-family: Helvetica;font-size: 18px;font-style: normal;font-weight: bold;line-height: 125%;letter-spacing: normal;text-align: left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.armstrongeconomics.com\/international-news\/china\/the-worlds-busiest-shipping-port-is-closed\/\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;color: #ffffff;font-weight: normal;text-decoration: underline;\" rel=\"noopener\">World’s Busiest Shipping Port Is Closed \u2013 (Armstrong Economics \u2013 April 13, 2022)<\/a><\/h4>\nShanghai went under a full lockdown at the end of March under China\u2019s zero-COVID tolerance policy. When cases allegedly rose, China extended the lockdown indefinitely. Shanghai hosts the busiest container port in the world, and its inability to operate is contributing to the supply chain crisis in a profound way. A member of the EU Chamber of Commerce\u2019s Shanghai Chapter estimated that volume was down by 40% during the first week that the ports were prohibited from operating. There is no set date for when the port will resume operation. The implications of shutting down the world\u2019s largest shipping port amidst a supply crisis will send aftershocks throughout the global economy. To understand how crucial Shanghai\u2019s port is to the global flow of goods, the Port of Shanghai hosts over quadruple the volume of the Port of Los Angeles (one of America\u2019s largest shipping ports). Those in the industry warned that this would cause problems. One of the largest international container companies, Maersk, said that Shanghai\u2019s shutdown would cause a 30% rise in trucking costs alone.

The answer lies in the subtle but highly effective way Amazon and other stores use shopping psychology to influence our buying decisions. Around 70% of online shopping carts with at least one item are eventually abandoned, according to the Baymard Institute, an e-commerce consultancy based in Copenhagen. The top reason customers walk away: They say they were just browsing and weren’t ready to make a purchase, according to the firm. So companies look for persuasion tactics to get shoppers to follow through and click the “buy” button. Amazon’s tactic to display a coupon <em>option<\/em>, instead of just automatically showing a discounted price, gives shoppers an extra incentive to make the purchase right away.

They are protean, shifting adroitly with the political winds, moving from the Republican Party to the Democratic Party and then back again, mutating from cold warriors to neocons to liberal interventionists. They are pimps of war, puppets of the Pentagon, a state within a state, and the defense contractors who lavishly fund their think tanks \u2014 Project for the New American Century, American Enterprise Institute, Foreign Policy Initiative, Institute for the Study of War, Atlantic Council and Brookings Institute. Like some mutant strain of an antibiotic-resistant bacteria, they cannot be vanquished. It does not matter how wrong they are, how absurd their theories, how many times they lie or denigrate other cultures and societies as uncivilized or how many murderous military interventions go bad. They were the authors of the policy to invade Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria and Libya. Their children do not serve in the military, but they eagerly ship young American men and women off to fight and die for their self-delusional dreams of empire and American hegemony. Or, as in Ukraine, they provide hundreds of millions of dollars in weaponry and logistical support to sustain long and bloody proxy wars.

He said a person\u2019s perception, not genetic programming, is what spurs all action in the body: \u201cIt\u2019s actually our beliefs that select our genes, that select our behavior.\u201d To explain how this works, he started at the level of the 50 to 65 trillion cells that comprise the human body. He showed how a cell functions independent of DNA and how its perceptions of environmental stimuli affect DNA. He then applied the same principles to the human body as a whole, showing the power our perceptions, our beliefs, have over DNA.

The goal was achieved: A wave of returned overdue materials came crashing in, accompanied by a healthy increase (between 9 and 15%, depending on the borough) of returning visitors. Since last fall, more than 21,000 overdue or lost items have been returned in Manhattan, Staten Island and the Bronx, some so old that they were no longer in the library\u2019s systems. About 51,000 items were returned in Brooklyn between Oct. 6 through the end of February. And more than 16,000 were returned in Queens. In 2019, the New York, Brooklyn and Queens Public Libraries collected more than $3 million in late fees, according to Angela Montefinise, the vice president of communications and marketing for the New York Public Library. When Tony Marx joined the New York Public Library as president in 2011, it was his mission, he said, to eliminate fines for good. Amnesty programs were put in place and, in Brooklyn, a study was conducted on the effectiveness of fines and the barriers that patrons faced in returning books. Then, in 2017, the public library in Nashville eliminated fines, and those in Chicago, Dallas and San Francisco followed two years later. It wasn\u2019t until the pandemic hit, and fines were temporarily suspended in New York, that Mr. Marx saw a clear opportunity to change the city\u2019s system permanently. \u201cWe are not in the fine-collection business. We\u2019re in the encouraging-to-read-and-learn business, and we were getting in our own way.\u201d \u201cI can\u2019t tell you how stressed out these fines made our customers,\u201d said Tienya Smith, a librarian who runs the branch in Long Island City, Queens. \u201cNot having these fees erases all of that.\u201d (Editor\u2019s note: If you haven\u2019t visited your local public library lately, maybe put it on your next errands list. \u201cNo late fines\u201d seems to be gaining momentum \u2013 and not just in big city libraries.)\n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody><\/table>\n\t\t\t\t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<\/td>\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n \n\t\t\t\t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<\/tr>\n\t\t\t\t<\/table>\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody>\n<\/table><table class=\"mcnImageBlock\" style=\"min-width: 100%;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\">\n <tbody class=\"mcnImageBlockOuter\">\n <tr>\n <td style=\"padding: 9px;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" class=\"mcnImageBlockInner\" valign=\"top\">\n <table class=\"mcnImageContentContainer\" style=\"min-width: 100%;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\" align=\"left\">\n <tbody><tr>\n <td class=\"mcnImageContent\" style=\"padding-right: 9px;padding-left: 9px;padding-top: 0;padding-bottom: 0;text-align: center;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" valign=\"top\">\n \n \n <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/mcusercontent.com\/916d9ff25098a781af857b468\/images\/4063f239-99a1-4f52-a34a-427565a2378c.png\" style=\"max-width: 1200px;padding-bottom: 0;display: inline !important;vertical-align: bottom;border: 0;height: auto;outline: none;text-decoration: none;-ms-interpolation-mode: bicubic;\" class=\"mcnImage\" width=\"564\" align=\"middle\">\n \n \n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody><\/table>\n <\/td>\n <\/tr>\n <\/tbody>\n<\/table><table class=\"mcnTextBlock\" style=\"min-width: 100%;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\">\n <tbody class=\"mcnTextBlockOuter\">\n <tr>\n <td class=\"mcnTextBlockInner\" style=\"padding-top: 9px;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" valign=\"top\">\n \t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<table align=\"left\" border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" width=\"100%\" style=\"width:100%;\">\n\t\t\t\t<tr>\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n\t\t\t \n\t\t\t\t<!--[if mso]>\n\t\t\t\t<td valign=\"top\" width=\"600\" style=\"width:600px;\">\n\t\t\t\t<![endif]-->\n <table style=\"max-width: 100%;min-width: 100%;border-collapse: collapse;mso-table-lspace: 0pt;mso-table-rspace: 0pt;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;\" class=\"mcnTextContentContainer\" width=\"100%\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" border=\"0\" align=\"left\">\n <tbody><tr>\n \n <td class=\"mcnTextContent\" style=\"padding-top: 0;padding-right: 18px;padding-bottom: 9px;padding-left: 18px;mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;word-break: break-word;color: #ffffff;font-family: Helvetica;font-size: 16px;line-height: 150%;text-align: left;\" valign=\"top\">\n \n <h4 class=\"null\" style=\"display: block;margin: 0;padding: 0;color: #ffffff;font-family: Helvetica;font-size: 18px;font-style: normal;font-weight: bold;line-height: 125%;letter-spacing: normal;text-align: left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/1steviekilner\/status\/1506900401823571968?mc_cid=efbe7bf939&mc_eid=88eaa51cbb\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"mso-line-height-rule: exactly;-ms-text-size-adjust: 100%;-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%;color: #ffffff;font-weight: normal;text-decoration: underline;\" rel=\"noopener\">Best Game of Keepie-uppie Ever Seen \u2013 (Twitter \u2013 March 24, 2022)<\/a><\/h4>\nIn 12 seconds: the border collies\u2019 version of Hacky Sack.
